Dashan walked to the feet of the fourth grandmother, rubbed the feet of the fourth grandmother with his little head, and looked up with tenderness in his big watery eyes. It tilted its little head, as if to say, "Fourth grandmother, don't worry, my master will be fine." ”

The fourth grandmother looked at the little yellow dog, and the uneasiness in her heart suddenly decreased.

Strange!

Just as he was about to use his feet to push away the little yellow dog, there was a noisy bell in the yard.

I went out to take a look, but I saw that under the dim courtyard lamp, next to the still stove, a dazzling light flickered in the night.

It seems to be Xiaoyang's mobile phone.

The fourth grandmother walked over, hurriedly picked up her mobile phone, and connected the phone.

But before she could open her mouth to ask who the other party was, she was startled by a shrill roar: "Chen Yang, what's the matter with you? Are you a fool or a fool? How can you tolerate a woman who makes rumors about you three or four times?"

The fourth grandmother frowned, and asked with some displeasure, "Who are you? Why do you scold people as soon as you open your mouth?"

"Huh?" The person on the other end of the phone was obviously stunned for a moment, quickly lowered the decibels, and asked, "Hello, I'm Zheng Kai, Chen Yang's classmate, who are you?"

"I'm his fourth grandmother. The fourth grandmother heard that the other party was Xiaoyang's classmate, and she also softened her tone, "What did you just say?

"Oh, Fourth Grandma, I often hear Chen Yang mention you, I didn't mean you just now, I said a woman in your village, and she spread rumors in the WeChat group again. ”

"What rumors?"

Zheng Kai laughed dryly twice and said: "That, that woman said in the WeChat group in Redwood Town that Chen Yang was dying, I sent a lot of WeChat messages to Chen Yang, but he didn't reply, so I called." Oh, by the way, Fourth Grandma, what about Chen Yang?"

The fourth grandmother's brow that had just let go furrowed again: "Which bastard made a rumor?"?

"I don't know who she is, but she claims to be from Shiraishi Village anyway. Zheng Kai asked again, "Fourth grandmother, what about Chen Yang, can you trouble him to listen to the phone?"

Although Chen Yang is not the grandson of the fourth grandmother, whether it is Chen Yang or Junguang Junhui, which one is not the fourth grandmother who grew up?

She has been married to the old Chen family for decades, watching Siliang and their generation grow up, and watching Xiaoyang's generation grow up, in her heart, she has already regarded these children as more important than her own life.

You say, how many decades can this person live? At this age, he has already seen through life and death, just to watch his children grow up and start a family as soon as possible.

As long as the children are good, she will live a few years less.

But now she heard that she didn't know who killed a thousand knives, and she was spreading rumors everywhere that Xiaoyang was dying, she was already very uncomfortable, and now she couldn't help sobbing softly.

Why is Xiaoyang's life so miserable? He usually doesn't talk about being kind to people, and he often helps others, but now he is tired and collapsed in order to support his family and support his children, how can there still be wolf-hearted things that spread rumors and curse him everywhere?

The fourth grandmother sobbed softly on the other end of the phone, and Zheng Kai on the other end of the phone was stunned when he heard the voice, thinking to himself, Chen Yang, that guy shouldn't really be that anything.

Half an hour later, as soon as the fourth grandmother had taken a bath and dressed Xiao Qian, she heard a rapid knock on the door at the gate of the courtyard, accompanied by a man's voice.

"Chen Yang, Chen Yang, open the door, I'm Zheng Kai. ”

The fourth grandmother felt that this voice seemed to be the voice on the phone just now, so she hurriedly walked out with Xiao Qian in her arms.

From a distance, I saw a young man who was about the same age as Xiao Yang standing under the courtyard lamp through the fence-like iron gate, looking in anxiously.

He was tall and strong, his dark skin could almost blend in with the night, and the young face was not vigorous, but it was still in its prime.

Seeing the old grandmother and Xiao Qian in the yard, Zheng Kai hurriedly asked, "Are you the fourth grandmother?" I am Zheng Kai, Chen Yang's classmate, and I just called. ”

When Zheng Kai spoke, the two rows of white teeth looked like stars in the sky under the illumination of the light.

"It's really you. The fourth grandmother hurriedly came out, opened the courtyard door, and said, "I'm Xiaoyang's fourth grandmother, come in quickly." ”

She looked up at the tall young man in front of her and asked, "Little brother, it's so late, do you have anything to do with Xiaoyang?"

Zheng Kai looked at Xiao Qian in the arms of the fourth grandmother, then looked at the dimly lit house and the messy courtyard, and frowned: "Fourth grandmother, is something wrong with Chen Yang?" ”

The fourth grandmother sighed and said softly: "Let's go in first, Xiaoyang is inside." ”

Looking at the tired expression of the fourth grandmother, Zheng Kai had a bad premonition.

He followed the fourth grandmother into the house.

The fourth grandmother pointed to the room and said, "Xiaoyang is lying inside, you can go in and take a look, but don't be too loud." ”

Zheng Kai hurriedly walked into the room, and suddenly saw his former old friend lying motionless on the simple wooden bed, the uneasiness in his heart suddenly intensified, and his face stiffened.

Chen Yang's appearance has not changed at all, but seeing him at a small gathering a few months ago makes people feel diametrically opposed.

At that time, his wife had not yet run, he was still working on the construction site, he had an income every month, and he was drinking a little wine that day, and he said with a look of longing that he would build a house at the end of the year, and he had a bright face at that time.

But now?

He lay on a simple plank bed, beside the dusty walls, the insect-covered table, and the clumped chairs, and the house was so old that the ground had cracked several fingers thick, like the ravines in the palm of his hand, like an abyss in the dim nightlight.

Whether it is a house or furnishings, or the calluses on Chen Yang's hands, it is not the first time Zheng Kai has seen these things, but there has never been a time when they can give him such a strong impact as at this moment.

The man who lay motionless on the bed was his childhood playmate and his best buddy.

But now, he is lying on the bed, not moving, with a sickly face, completely devoid of the strength and tenacity of the past.

Some people, you think that he will always stand like a mountain, but one day, when you see him lying sick in bed and unable to move, the feeling of disparity will be like a mudslide that instantly shatters his image in your mind.

No matter how healthy a person is, he will fall, which seems to be an eternal law.

The fourth grandmother saw Zheng Kai standing aside with a stiff expression, so she hurriedly comforted: "Little brother, you don't have to worry, our Xiaoyang just has a fever, and now the fever has subsided a lot, it's okay, wait for him to wake up from sleep, it'll be fine." ”

These were the words that men used to comfort their women, but now they were used by her to comfort the young man in front of her.

Although she doesn't know if this young man's relationship with Xiaoyang is good or not, she can know from the fact that he can come all the way to see Xiaoyang with a phone call, and his relationship with Xiaoyang is at least not bad.

Zheng Kai nodded, and said with a firm face: "Well, Fourth Grandma, Chen Yang will be fine, he is the toughest guy I have ever seen." Fourth grandma, can I do something?"

The fourth grandmother smiled bitterly: "No, it's already good that you can come to see Xiaoyang, he will be fine with us taking care of him." ”

At this time, the fourth grandfather scolded and dragged Jiajia in.

"Hasn't Xiaoyang woken up yet?" the fourth grandfather looked at the strange young man and asked, "What is this?"

"Hello grandpa, I am Chen Yang's classmate, I have been to Chen Yang's house before, it seems that I have met you, I don't know if you still have an impression. ”

"Oh, come to think of it, your name seems to be Zheng Kai?"

"Hmm. Zheng Kai nodded, "Let me stay here tonight, if you need it, I can help." ”

The fourth grandfather and the fourth grandmother wanted to refuse, but they thought that it would always be better to have a young man here.

So, Zheng Kai stayed.

At two o'clock in the middle of the night, he was unexpectedly awakened by a noisy sound.

When I got up, I saw a raunchy man making a fire in the yard, and I was so startled that I almost didn't scream.

What the hell is this?

The fourth uncle was also surprised to see a strange man coming out of Xiaoyang's house.

The two looked at each other stunned for more than ten seconds, and after asking each other's identities, they smiled dumbly.

Knowing that Chen Yang's fourth uncle was going to help Chen Yang burn the fire and boil peanuts and sell them, Zheng Kai felt that he could just help, so he lit the fire together.

The fourth uncle didn't refuse, after all, at this time, if there was someone next to him to talk to, he would always be more down-to-earth.

Although Xiaoyang didn't wake up, the fourth uncle didn't dare to forget what he taught, and he did everything he said before, step by step.

But looking at the peanuts in the yard, the fourth uncle's heart couldn't help but be irritable: "There are almost 2,000 catties of peanuts here, there is no Xiaoyang, and I don't know if I can sell them out." ”

Zheng Kai sat next to him and said in surprise: "Don't you have a fixed market?"

The fourth uncle shook his head: "The two restaurants have a total of 300 catties, the supermarket has set a total of 500 catties, and it is only 800 catties, and the school gate can sell about 600 catties, adding up to only 1,000... 1,400 pounds. That's a few hundred pounds left. I can't sell anything, I'm afraid I won't be able to sell it. ”

"It's fine. Zheng Kai smiled, "Today I will go with you to help Chen Yang sell peanuts." ”

"Do you have a market?" the fourth uncle was overjoyed.

Zheng Kai shook his head: "No." ”

Alas, the fourth uncle was discouraged again. It seems that these peanuts will never be sold out today.

"But with my good looks, I can definitely sell a lot of peanuts. Zheng Kaipi said.

Fourth Uncle: ......
