16. Third brother
Who is the third brother?
He is one of Zhou Fangyuan and Yu Ban's friends, five years older than them, and he is the head of this group of children.
The third brother's full name is Fang Zhenbin, and because he is three at home, he is called the third brother by Zhou Fangyuan.
It's just that he didn't expect that he was the man Zhou Fangyuan and Yu Ban saw at Wuyuan's mother-in-law before, and Zhou Fangyuan didn't recognize him at first, after all, his eyes were full of all kinds of indescribable white flowers at that time, and he didn't look carefully at the faces of men and women.
Now seeing the third brother's unique running posture, he was reminded by Yu Banyi again, Zhou Fangyuan was happy, the one who fought with the banshee in the five pieces of mother-in-law just now for five hundred rounds, isn't it the third brother.
"Third Brother !!"
Yu Ban is an impatient, and he hasn't done anything yet, he has already waved his hand and shouted.
The expression on the face of the third brother who was running wildly was funny, and he first looked around with a vigilant look like a frightened deer. When he saw that it was Zhou Fangyuan and Yu Ban, a relaxed expression appeared on his face again.
The third brother tightened his belt, walked in front of Zhou Fangyuan and them, looked at the two of them, and had a puzzled expression, "What are you two doing here?"
Indeed, Zhou Fangyuan and Yu Ban have been a lot darker during this time.
Needless to say, Zhou Fangyuan sits under the sun all day and sells grilled sausages, and tanning is too normal. Yu Ban's words, in fact, it was the time when Zhou Fangyuan went out to set up a stall, and Yu Ban's family went to Beidaihe. Yu Ban's second grandfather's home is in Beidaihe, and he invited his grandfather and his family to travel during the holiday, and the family walked for more than ten days, having a good time at the beach, and as a result, he got a tanned and shiny skin.
"Huh? That's right, the third brother didn't say that I haven't noticed it yet, why are you getting dark, fat man? Let's go to Beidaihe to play and bask in the sun on the beach all day long, what about you? You won't go to the beach too. ”
In the previous life, Yu Ban was like this, going to Beidaihe was like going to heaven, coming back to all kinds of shows, hanging the word seaside on his lips all day long, and chattering for half a year. Zeng made Zhou Fangyuan tired of it, but he couldn't refute the other party.
"No, I've just been out doing something lately. ”
Zhou Fangyuan shook his head and said very casually.
Yu Ban didn't think much about it, or rather, his current mind was not on Zhou Fangyuan.
He turned around and approached the third brother with a cheap smile on his face, "Third brother, what are you busy with? Why did you even untie your belt?"
"I didn't do anything, I just went to the hut. ”
The three of them looked at Yu Ban with puzzled expressions, not understanding what he meant.
"Hehe, what are you and my brother pretending to be? What is that sister's name, isn't it beautiful? We all saw it, don't you know, we were on the wall with the fat man at the time...... Ouch!"
Before Yu Ban finished speaking, he was knocked hard by the third brother.
"Little brat, this is the kind of thing you should ask? Are you going to play a game? Get in!"
As he spoke, he kicked Yu Ban's ass.
"I, it's not okay for me to ask, I'm not allowed to ask if you want to do it? Don't, don't fight, okay, okay, I won't ask, won't I be okay if I don't ask?
"Turn your face? Okay, you look through it for me, the little bastard turned against you, and you dare to turn your face with the gang!"
"Don't don't, I'm wrong, third brother, you have a lot, let my brother go." ”
The two fought all the way.
Yu Ban was kicked and kicked by the third brother all the way, and at first he struggled in various ways, and only his life was left in the back. The third brother has a high reputation among their little guys, he is righteous, willing to give, who is usually short of money, or if there is anything to find the third brother, as long as he can help, he will definitely help. Even if you come to play games, if you really don't have any money, you can occasionally play them for free.
The most important thing is that Zhou Fangyuan and their little children got together with the third brother when they were four or five years old, and after more than ten years of getting along, although they are not brothers, they are like brothers, and the relationship is quite good.
Conversations like the one that are now are the norm among them, and they say "turn their faces", but in fact, they are all joking. When it comes to turning faces, most people will not put the word "face-turning" on their lips.
The two entered the courtyard while making a fuss, and Zhou Fangyuan walked in behind the two.
The courtyard of the third brother's house is slightly smaller than Zhou Fangyuan's, and now he lives alone.
His parents, as well as his two older brothers, had all died a few years ago.
The third brother's eldest brother died relatively early, dying at a very young age, and the third brother himself had never seen this brother. The second brother has grown up, a few years older than the third brother, but when he was running a big car and following the car, he had a car accident in a field and was sent to the local hospital.
The third brother's parents were anxious, and rushed to the hospital overnight, but the car overturned on the road, if it wasn't for the fact that the third brother was too young to travel long distances and was placed at his aunt's house, he might not have escaped this catastrophe.
Afterwards, the third brother, as the only living member of the family, received a large amount of compensation. The third brother also lived in his aunt's house until the year before when he came of age and moved out to live alone.
The small courtyard is a little messy, obviously the third brother usually doesn't take care of it much, and it can't be compared with the yard of Zhou Fangyuan's house.
There are two rooms in the north room, one is his bedroom, and the other is equipped with six large game consoles. Now there are a few little ghosts sitting in front of the machine and shouting, their age is only six or seven years old, a little younger than Zhou Fangyuan. Seeing Yu Ban and Zhou Fangyuan walking in, the little ghosts who didn't play the game hurriedly greeted "Brother Yu" and "Fat Brother".
"Fat brother" Zhou Fangyuan nodded helplessly, he could see that he might not be able to get rid of this nickname in his life, the seven or eight-year-old little ghost knew his nickname, and he passed it on from generation to generation? Is it that he will be promoted to "fat uncle" and "fat man" in the future, but the problem is that he is not fat, with a standard figure and some small muscles. If you use a little bit of strength, you can even see some abdominal muscles, and you can put it in the future to be a proper male god.
Just because of the former "baby fat baby face", the nickname of "fat man" fell on his head, and looking at this posture, I am afraid that he may not be able to get rid of it in this life.
Yu Ban looked at Zhou Fangyuan and snickered, needless to say, this nickname was given and promoted by this product, not only his peers, but also a generation older than Zhou Fangyuan, and when he saw him, he was also "chubby" and "chubby", which really made people want to cry without tears.
"You two can do whatever you want, I won't care about you. ”
It can be seen that the third brother's legs are still a little weak now, he lit a cigarette for himself, and was about to go into the back room to rest.
"Third brother, bring me one too. ”
Yu Ban looked greedy.
The children in the village are generally precocious, and the family is not strictly controlled, and many children are proficient in smoking and drinking from a very young age, and Yu Ban is no exception.
"Little bastard, the chicken feathers are still growing, and you know how to smoke!"
The third brother scolded with a smile, but still threw a cigarette to Yu Ban, and Yu Ban immediately took it as if he had obtained a treasure, and lit it up.
Then the third brother looked at Zhou Fangyuan again, "Fatty, what about you?"
Zhou Fangyuan thought for a moment, then nodded, "I'll have one too." ”
As he spoke, he took a cigarette from the third brother's hand, but he just held it in his hand and didn't light it.
The third brother didn't say much, waved his hand at them, and went into the back room to sleep.
When the third brother closed the door, Yu Ban immediately ran to the counter with a cigarette in his mouth, found the box where the game currency was placed, grabbed a handful and began to look for his favorite game. At this time, there were not many types of games on large game consoles, especially in small cities like Beitong, and there were only a few games such as "The King of Fighters", "Three Kingdoms" and "Dinosaur Wars".
Because there were not many people in the early morning, there were now four empty machines.
Yu Ban looked at it and chose a game console of the King of Fighters. Seeing Zhou Fangyuan standing still, he hurriedly waved his hand.
"Fatty, come here. ”
"You play first," Zhou Fangyuan shook his head, "I'll help the third brother keep an eye on it for a while, and when he wakes up, I'm playing." ”
"It's all from this village, so what do you need to keep an eye on? ”
Yu Ban disagreed.
Zhou Fangyuan continued to shake his head, "That's not good, we always play for nothing, and we have to do something for the third brother." Okay, you play wow, I'll come over when the third brother wakes up in a while. ”
"So be it. ”
Yu Ban obviously couldn't understand, he scratched his head, then immediately turned around, put in the game currency, and began to beat wildly.
Zhou Fangyuan walked to the counter, which was actually behind an ordinary square wooden table, sat in the place where the third brother usually sits, picked up a magazine, and began to look through the pages one by one.
Facts have proved that Zhou Fangyuan's decision was still very prescient.
Because it was a holiday, the students had a lot of free time and spare money in their hands, and it was only half past nine in the morning, and the game hall of the third brother's house was full of people. Most of them are children of the same age as Zhou Fangyuan, some from the same village and some from other villages. A few of the younger ones had all been driven down by this time.
There are also a few older ones, about the same as the third brother, and no one dares to grab their machines.
During this period, Yu Ban also changed a few machines, and also came over to catch two game coins, Zhou Fangyuan did not stop him, the third brother agreed, and he would not go to much trouble.
There were more and more people, and by ten o'clock in the morning, the small room was already full of people.
The noise, yelling, and abuse were mixed together, so that the third brother in the back room could no longer sleep. He rubbed his head, opened the door and walked out. When he saw Zhou Fangyuan, who was sitting at the wooden table to help him collect money, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
But he quickly came to his senses, a smile on his face.
walked over and patted Zhou Fangyuan lightly on the shoulder.
"Third brother, are you awake?"
Zhou Fangyuan glanced back at the third brother and asked.
"Well, wake up, fatty, thank you. ”
"What are you doing here, you usually let the two of us play casually, I don't know how to thank you, this little thing, since I can do it, I'll help you get it by the way, it's not a problem. ”
"Well," the third brother nodded, "I'll wash my face first, don't go, you two will eat at my place at noon, and after eating, I have something to discuss with you." ”
"Me?"
Zhou Fangyuan pointed at himself in some amazement.
"Yes, it's you," the third brother patted Zhou Fangyuan's shoulder, "I'll tell you after eating." ”
After speaking, the third brother walked out with a basin and a towel, and Zhou Fangyuan looked at the back of the third brother, with some doubts in his heart.
The third brother is talking to himself alone, what can he say to himself?
Without thinking about it, Zhou Fangyuan didn't think much about it, anyway, the third brother would tell him when he was eating, and he was not in a hurry at this time.
