Chapter 22: The Old Ghost Uncle and the Sister and Brother

Feng Chengyu was a little impatient, and his tone hardened a little: "No, you think too much." ”

Li Man nodded with satisfaction, put down the teacup in his hand, smiled at him, and did not forget to advise: "Go early and come back early." ”

She said something again, Feng Chengyu didn't listen again, closed the door, and walked towards the garage with a hint of anger.

"If you want to play with your mother, it's okay, there are so many good girls in this world, why do you waste time on a person who is a traitor? Qinqin is the most suitable for you. ”

Li Man's last words kept echoing in his mind, and Feng Chengyu wanted to ignore it, but he felt it clearer and clearer.

He sat in the driver's seat, his big bony hands pressed on the steering wheel, his fingers tightened, and the green tendons on the back of his hands stood out.

He didn't start the car immediately, just sat quietly in his seat for a while, a small bump twisted between his eyebrows.

He hadn't seen Ding Dong for a while, and at the end of the year, there were a lot of things in the company, and he was too busy to take care of anything else.

She never took the initiative to call him, and the only topic between the two was Wen Chengguo, and nothing else.

Everyone was trying to persuade him to stay away from her. He felt ridiculous: Couldn't he tell the difference between right and wrong? Even if Ding Dong had great ability, he could beat him? What's more, he was just taking revenge on her three years ago for not saying goodbye, she was his pawn, and that's it.

Thinking like this, he felt that his chest was not so depressed. He then started the car and drove away from the house.

The mobile phone that was casually thrown on the passenger seat buzzed, and when he picked it up, Luo Zhuang's noisy voice came out of the speaker, and it kept echoing throughout the carriage: "Feng Chengyu, have you arrived, grinding and chirping like a girl." Let me tell you, this new batch of girls is really on time, and they will be gone if they are late. Hurry up, I've got you a ...... with the biggest breasts."

There was a red light ahead, Feng Chengyu stopped the car with a black face, and no matter how Luo Zhuang shouted on his mobile phone, he never said a word.

It wasn't until the other party noticed that something was wrong and asked tentatively that Feng Chengyu threw out a sentence of "I'm not going", and then hung up the call.

The green light turned on, and he turned the car around and drove towards Jingtai Bay.

He didn't know how to explain his actions, he just went with his will. Instead of messing around with that humanoid teddy in Luozhuang at the bar, it is better to go to Jingtai Bay to clean up for a while.

Just take a look at whether there are any changes in your chess pieces.

On the other end of the phone, Luo Zhuang was holding the waist of a girl wearing heavy makeup in his arms, and when he heard the beeping sound from the mobile phone, he only felt inexplicable. He looked at the screen of his mobile phone that was gradually darkening, and couldn't help but burst out with a foul sentence for a while: "Damn!"

And let him go!

Feng Chengyu thought that Ding Dong should have nowhere to go.

But when he arrived at Jingtai Bay, he learned from the maid that Ding Dong had gone out to the Chengbei Cemetery an hour ago.

Feng Chengyu stood in the huge villa living room, a little unable to come back to his senses for a while.

Chengbei Cemetery is a free cemetery under the jurisdiction of the government, and the burial of homeless people with little social background, or poor families whose family conditions are too difficult to afford to buy a cemetery.

His gaze swept over the empty living room and saw the newspaper on the coffee table.

He picked it up and saw the rental information circled by black water-based pen.

She wants to rent a house?

Feng Chengyu frowned, and the hand holding the newspaper tightened slightly.

Moments later, he threw down the newspaper and drove out the door and drove to the Chengbei Cemetery.

————

The man who took care of the cemetery was a sixty or seventy-year-old grandfather, Ding Dong bought him a pack of good cigarettes, and he entered the cemetery smoothly.

Holding a bouquet of flowers, she walked along the path and stopped at a pine tree in the far south.

There is a simple tombstone under the tree, engraved with the words "Tomb of the Old Ghost", and the inscription below shows that it was four years ago.

She bent down, placed the flower in front of the tombstone, and stood there, quietly hanging her head, staring motionless at the stonestone. Her gaze was indifferent, there was no deep grief, just quiet silence.

The whimpering cold wind blew in, the corners of her clothes fluttered, and her hair danced gently.

She was so focused that she didn't notice the movement around her at all. After some time, a voice suddenly came from behind her.

"Who is he?"

Ding Dong was stunned for a moment, turned around, and saw Feng Chengyu standing behind her, looking at her with complicated eyes.

He was wearing a long black trench coat, the corners of which swayed in the wind, and his long figure was tall and handsome, which looked a little bleak in the dry yellow grass.

Ding Dong retracted his gaze, glanced back at the "Tomb of the Old Ghost" engraved on the stele, and said lightly: "A person who keeps me from starving to death." ”

For a long time, neither of them spoke again.

Leaning less, Feng Chengyu spoke again, but with a hint of inquiry: "Is he your father?"

Ding Dong looked at him and suddenly felt that he was very far away from him.

"Neither, I don't even know his name. ”

Feng Chengyu probably couldn't understand her feelings, maybe in his opinion, only her relatives would help her.

She told Feng Chengyu about the old ghost.

When she was fifteen years old, she and Ding Xiaowei sneaked out of the orphanage, and the two of them almost froze to death on the street from hunger and cold. It's not a glorious business, but at least it's enough to fill your stomach.

They didn't know his name, they only knew that everyone in the industry called him an old ghost. So they followed and called him "Uncle Ghost".

The old ghost man is nice, too good to look like a disgusting thief. He had some savings and took them out for his siblings to go to school.

He's a gambler, but there's always a way to get money to feed them.

So the siblings studied and stole even harder, wanting to repay his kindness.

It sounds strange, but it's not conflicting. The old ghost knows what angle is most convenient to cut through someone's bag, and knows how to attract someone's attention and take their valuables without being detected. Ding Dong and Ding Xiaowei are the only disciples of the old ghost and his most outstanding descendants.

Under the careful teaching of the old ghost, they were never caught.

They lived together for a year, and after a year, it was all over.

The old ghost was caught in someone else's casino, and the casino owner found someone to cut off his hand. He could have gone to the hospital for treatment, but he didn't, and dragged it until he was infected, and died miserably.

Before he died, he handed over his passbook to Ding Dong, which was the tuition fee he had saved for his sister and brother, not much, but not a lot.

He said that the thief lost his hand and lost his job. He didn't live long and didn't want to live. He didn't want to waste money going to the hospital for treatment, and if he had a choice, he hoped that the siblings would stop stealing. He asked Ding Dong to find a serious job for Ding Xiaowei to study hard. As long as one of their sisters and brothers goes to college, they will survive the hard life.

He swallowed his breath after saying this. The day of the burial happened to be the great cold in the 24 solar terms.
