Xi Dongyang is nicknamed "Skinny Tiger" because he is thin, and also because he has a tiger head tattooed on his neck and is ruthless in fights, hence his nickname.
But the tiger head on his neck is usually invisible. Only when the mood fluctuates greatly or after drinking, the tiger head tattoo will emerge.
These are what Xu Tonglin told Xu Tongdao after asking around today.
Xu Tongdao didn't know much about tattoos, but based on Xu Tonglin's description, he estimated that Xi Dongyang's tattoos should be made of pigeon blood.
How brave! Dare you use pigeon blood for tattoos?
As far as he knows, pigeon blood tattoos are dangerous, and once infection occurs, it will be troublesome.
In addition, Xu Tonglin also found out that Xi Dongyang's sister was named Xi Xiaoqian, and... Three years ago, Xi Dongyang's parents were involved in a car accident at the same time, and both passed away. The burden of family life suddenly fell on Xi Dongyang's shoulders.
superior.
It was also from that time that Xi Dongyang corrected his evil ways and stopped fooling around, so he set up this barbecue stall here.
Business is usually okay, and every night, his sister Xi Xiaoqian comes over to help.
It stands to reason that with the income from the barbecue stall in Dongyang, their family should be able to live a decent life, but this is not the case.
Because there are elderly grandfathers and grandmothers on Xi Dongyang, especially his grandfather. Because of his old age, although he has no major problems, he has a lot of minor problems. He has to go to the hospital every three to five. He is sick more often than well. It is simply
It's just a medicine jar.
It costs a lot of medical expenses every month.
Most of the money earned from running a stall in Dongyang was used for the old man's medical treatment.
All of the above are what Xu Tonglin inquired about today and told Xu Tongdao.
After listening to this, Comrade Xu felt confident.
In his opinion, if Xi Dongyang has such a heavy burden on his shoulders, even if it is a real tiger, it is still a tiger with a shackle on its neck and is not something to be afraid of.
He could understand why Xi Dongyang would rather spend a lot of money on medical expenses every month to save his grandfather's life.
Filial piety should be on the one hand, and on the other hand... it should be because his parents are dead, and the only remaining relatives are his grandfather, grandmother and sister.
Xi Dongyang should be afraid of losing any relatives again.
…
As he walked towards the Xi Dongyang stall, Xu Tongdao was running through various thoughts in his mind.
Soon, he came to Xi Dongyang.
Xu Tonglin hesitated and followed, standing not far behind Xu Tongdao.
Not far away, Bald Zhang and Fatty Lu were also watching curiously and doubtfully.
Xi Xiaoqian thought for a moment, wiped her hands on the apron around her waist, and walked over with a worried expression.
Xi Dongyang turned around and looked at Tongdao Xu with indifferent eyes, then looked back at the guests at the last table in his stall, frowned slightly, and suddenly put the skewers in his hand on the tray aside.
While lowering his head to take out a cigarette and lighter from his trouser pocket, he asked coldly: "What do you want to say? Say it! I'll listen!"
When Comrade Xu saw him taking out cigarettes, he thought he was going to take one for himself, but...
But seeing that Xi Dongyang had no intention of giving him one, he took one in his mouth, lit it, and stuffed the cigarette and lighter back into his trouser pocket.
Xu Tongdao: "..."
Are you so stupid as a human being?
Although, even if Xi Dongyang offered him a cigarette, he wouldn't accept it, but whether he accepted it or not was one thing, but if Xi Dongyang didn't hand him a cigarette, that was another matter.
This at least shows that Xi Dongyang does not take his Comrade Xu seriously, or... he has no intention of giving him face at all.
Thinking of this, Tongdao Xu narrowed his eyes slightly, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. He looked at Xi Dongyang's indifferent face, and then glanced at the skewers that Xi Dongyang had just put on the tray. Xu Tongdao suddenly
Question: "Do you dare to kill me?"
Xi Dongyang put the cigarette to his lips and paused, then raised his eyes and looked into Xu Tongdao's eyes.
Their eyes met, and Xu Tongdao looked at him with a sneer.
Xi Dongyang secretly gritted his teeth, frowned, and his voice deepened, "What do you mean?"
Comrade Xu smiled, suddenly walked to the oven, bent down, spread his hands, grabbed a bottle of beer, wiped the bottle cap on the edge of the table, and then wiped off the bottle cap. Under Xi Dongyang's slightly angry gaze,
Comrade Xu took a sip of beer and looked sideways at Xi Dongyang again.
"You dare not kill me. If you want to force me to move away from this area, it is absolutely impossible! You have to make money to support your family, and I also have to make money to support my family! I am not afraid to tell you that you have no way out, and I, Comrade Xu, have no way out!
Therefore, I will fight with anyone who affects my ability to make money!"
Tongdao Xu's anger was very deep in his heart.
Before his rebirth, he had lived a difficult life for more than twenty years, experienced ups and downs in life, and had his family broken up, all of which continued to accumulate resentment in his heart.
Therefore, when he came to the end of what he just said, the fierceness in his eyes was clearly visible.
At that moment, Xi Dongyang, who was looking at him, had his pupils narrowed, and Xi Xiaoqian, who was standing not far away, suddenly turned pale, and the worry in her eyes became even stronger.
Even Fatty Lu and his wife and Bald Zhang, who were a little further away, had slightly changed expressions.
They all have the feeling that they underestimated this kid before.
This kid who hasn't shaved his mouth yet has such a ruthless side?
Xi Dongyang had a sullen face, lowered his head and took another puff of cigarette. When the smoke was exhaled, he raised his head again, staring at Tongdao Xu with cold eyes, his chin was slightly raised, and his voice was slightly raised, "What exactly do you want to say?"
Comrade Xu smiled, raised his hand and took two more sips of beer.
After drinking, he put the remaining half of the bottle of beer on the small table next to Xi Dongyang, "It's very simple! I'll give you two choices now, or, after we finish playing, you kill me, and then you go
Stay in jail, or go straight to the gun. As for your sister...and your grandpa and grandma at home, then you don't have to worry about it! Or, let's partner up and start this barbecue business together. If we have money, we can make money together.
!You think about it carefully?"
As soon as these two choices were presented, the expressions of everyone present changed.
When Comrade Xu said his first choice, Xi Dongyang pinched the cigarette in his hand, his face turned red, and the tiger head tattoo on his neck faintly emerged.
His sister Xi Xiaoqian, on the other hand, turned pale and opened her mouth to speak.
In contrast, Fatty Lu and his wife and Bald Zhang's eyes were bright and the corners of their mouths were slightly raised.
Xu Tonglin frowned and looked worriedly at Xu Tongdao and then at Xi Dongyang.
However, when Comrade Xu said the second choice, Xi Dongyang's expression was slightly stunned, Xi Xiaoqian's expression was surprised, Fatty Lu and his wife and Bald Zhang had smiles on their faces, and their expressions suddenly became ugly.
For them, Xi Dongyang is not something they dare to offend. Xu Tongdao's barbecue skills are much better than theirs, and his recent behavior... doesn't seem to be easy to offend.
If these two guys who are both easy to mess with suddenly team up to sell barbecue, then the barbecue business on this street...will they still have a share in making money?
As for Xu Tonglin?
When he heard the second choice given by Xu Tongdao, his expression was very surprised, his eyes rolled around, and he was already mentally calculating the pros and cons if they really partnered with Xi Dongyang to sell barbecue.
