It was already past seven o'clock after dinner, Zhao Bigan went back to the house to rest, while Xu Taiping took a taxi and went to the West Fourth Ring Road of the capital.

The west fourth ring of the capital is an old building area of the capital, there are many houses left over from the Ming and Qing dynasties, among which there are many quadrangles, although it has reached the fourth ring, but the value of the quadrangle is also very high, according to the price on the market, a three-entry quadrangle, the value is at least thirty or forty million.

The old shoemaker Xu Taiping was looking for lived in such a three-entry courtyard.

Bang bang bang!

Xu Taiping patted the big wooden door and shouted, "Old man, open the door." ”

"Come in yourself!" came an old and powerful voice from behind the door.

Xu Taiping pushed the door hard, and the door creaked open.

"One-two-three-four, two-two-three-four, three-two-three-four, one more time!"

Behind the door, there was a woman's regular voice shouting slogans, and in the courtyard in front of Xu Taiping, an antique 50-inch picture tube TV was placed on a rosewood shelf, and the TV was playing a group of women dancing aerobics.

On the left and right sides of the TV are a stereo more than a meter high, and the sound comes from the stereo.

"You old and immortal shoemaker, you look at these things as soon as it gets dark, and you are not afraid of high blood pressure and brain congestion and death!!" A middle-aged woman's scolding voice came from the courtyard next door, accompanied by the setting sun, the whole picture is very interesting.

In front of the TV, an old man wearing a white racer, green shorts, and flip-flops was moving with the movements of the people on the TV, and there was a purple yoga mat at his feet, which looked full of turmoil.

The old man turned his back to Xu Taiping, the skin on his body was very wrinkled, and there were a lot of age spots, he looked very old, but looking at his sports posture, it can be found that although the old man is old, his hands and feet are still quite flexible, every movement is done very well, and his eyes are always staring at the TV, and his attention is very concentrated.

"After all these years, your hobby hasn't changed. Xu Taiping walked to the old man's side with a smile and said.

"You sit down first, I'll finish practicing!" The old man didn't even look at Xu Taiping, and continued to make movements.

Xu Taiping nodded, walked into the room on the side very familiarly, and then moved a rattan chair out.

This rattan chair is said to have been made by the old man himself, it is sturdy and durable, and it feels very comfortable to sit on, no worse than those sofas or anything.

Looking at the passionate old man in front of him, Xu Taiping couldn't help but think of the scene when the two had just met.

It is said that when the two met for the first time, they were in a club in the capital.

That time, Xu Taiping had just finished his mission and returned to the capital, so he thought about going to press a motorcycle or something, and then went to the club.

The club has a very interesting show called the Emperor's Selection of Concubines, which is a group of women standing there, and you go and pick one you like and bring it into the room.

Of course, the massage here is an absolutely formal massage, but some of the services are a bit ambiguous, and the technicians are also very bold and can make jokes, so the business of the club is quite good.

At that time, Xu Taiping fell in love with the eighteenth technician, and as a result, the old man also fell in love with the eighteenth technician, and the two did not fight because they looked at a technician together, on the contrary, the two of them had a feeling that the heroes saw the same at that time, Xu Taiping felt that this old man was seventy or eighty years old, and he was able to exert his residual heat so much, which was really a model for my generation, so Xu Taiping decided to give full play to the glorious tradition of respecting the old and loving the young, and gave the eighteenth to the old man.

The old man was naturally grateful, and when the service was over and he was eating in the cafeteria, the old man specially found Xu Taiping and chatted with Xu Taiping for a while.

Xu Taiping didn't expect that although the old man was old, he was very trendy, he basically understood all the new things on the market, and he played with things that young people liked, and his favorite was the girl.

This is exactly the same as Xu Taiping at that time, the two of them talked in detail very happily, and in the end they almost didn't worship the handle, and when they left the club, the old man left an address for Xu Taiping, so that Xu Taiping had time to come to him to make tea and discuss the way of the royal maid.

Xu Taiping happened to have nothing to do in those two days, so the next day he came here with a few bottles of wine and a little lo-mei, chatting and drinking with this old man.

The old man's rich experience really opened Xu Taiping's eyes, from south to north, from China to foreign countries, black, white, yellow and brown beauties, there is no old man who has not tried, and these women are all the best of the best, some old men also left photos for Xu Taiping, even if Xu Taiping is picky, there is nothing wrong with it.

Of course, Xu Taiping is not good at stubble, he debuted for a few years, relying on his financial appearance and connotation, and he really slept with a lot of women on the level, although there are no photos, but Xu Taiping's ability to tell stories is very outstanding, in a few words, he can basically restore the appearance of the girl, and the old man is also licking his lips.

The friendship between the two people was concluded at that time, and then Xu Taiping knew that the old man is now retired at home, his children are working outside, and after his wife left a few years ago, he began to let himself go, according to the old man, this life does not know how many years to live, it is impossible because some people left earlier, you sigh and live hard, people live to be happy, happy enough, then when to die, it doesn't matter.

In addition to liking to taste women, the old man's biggest hobby is to do some manual work, among which making shoes is one of his skills, Xu Taiping doesn't know how the old man makes shoes, anyway, the cloth shoes made are comfortable and easy to wear, and they are very durable, and the shoes will not be broken when he fights with the shoes he makes, so from then on, Xu Taiping basically only wore the cloth shoes made by the old man.

If it weren't for the fact that he hadn't been in Beijing for a long time this time, Xu Taiping would never have worn any leather shoes and sneakers in his usual life.

After a set of calisthenics, a large piece of the old man's I-shirt was wet.

"Old man, why haven't you seen you old all these years!" Xu Taiping said with a smile.

"Boy, are you cursing me?" the old man glared at Xu Taiping and said, he and Xu Taiping didn't know each other's names, but they just called each other the old man and the boy.

"I'm just telling the truth, how about it, have you gained anything recently?" Xu Taiping asked curiously.

"Recently, do you know about the Central Academy of Drama? There is a school flower in it, and I just took it down recently!" the old man smiled proudly.

"Damn, you have taken the school flowers, did you take them?" Xu Taiping asked in surprise.

"You can doubt my character, but you must not doubt my kidneys!" The old man picked up the towel hanging next to him, wiped the sweat from his face, sat cross-legged on the yoga mat, and said, "What's the matter, you haven't been to the capital for a year or two, have you been arrested for committing a crime?"

"I'm doing a legitimate job, what else can I do?" Xu Taiping rolled his eyes and said, "It's just that I've been busy for a while recently, and now I'm working as a security guard in Jiangyuan City." ”

"It's a good job, what security guard?" asked the old man.

"Security at the school. Xu Taiping said.

"me, school security?" asked the old man in surprise.

"Of course!" Xu Taiping said proudly.

"Wow, I really envy you!" the old man said excitedly, "University security, that's a building near the water, the girls of the school are not allowed to be seen by you, and besides, you can also enter the girls' dormitory in a bright and bright way, it's amazing, can't you just look at the underwear of those girls hanging on the balcony every day?"

"I'm grass, I'm not as obscene as you, okay?" Xu Taiping smiled, "I've only been in the girls' dormitory once or twice so far, and I haven't looked at any underwear hanging on the balcony!"

"Come on, I don't know about you yet? You must have seen more than that, you must have stolen a few and taken them out in the middle of the night... Isn't it, isn't it?" the old man said with a wink at Xu Taiping.

"Get out of here, old man, don't talk about me, you have to pay attention, little young man, it's not easy to be satisfied, just your body, do you want to move? If you need my help, say it, be friends, go up the knife mountain, go down to the sea of fire, it is incumbent!" Xu Taiping said seriously.

"Hehe, don't you know that the old man is so talented?" the old man patted his chest proudly and said, "But as long as a woman is a woman, there is nothing I can't be satisfied!"

"Blow you... By the way, I came to you this time because I have something to ask you to come!" Xu Taiping suddenly said seriously.

"Are you making shoes again?" the old man asked with a glance at Xu Taiping's feet.

"You're an old man!" Xu Taiping smiled and gave a thumbs up, "I don't have any shoes to wear, so I'm coming to you, by the way, this time you have to make a pair of size 41, my friend wants." ”

"The old rules, you invite me to drink, massage, I'll help you make shoes, a new F1 bar has recently opened in the capital, the girl in it is called a water spirit, 3,000 yuan for a night, you can directly find marketing, will help you contact, how about it, go there at night?" the old man asked.

"I'm really worried that your old man's heart attack will pop out, every time you have to go to the bar, can you stand it?" Xu Taiping asked worriedly.

"Then pop out, pop out just to be freed. The old man said.

"That's it, let's go for a massage first, and then go to drink, the whole process is one-stop, I arranged it!" Xu Taiping said.

"Okay, I'll go change my clothes. The old man said and walked into the room happily.

Xu Taiping looked around boredly.

The yard is paved with green bricks, and there are a lot of plants planted next to it, as well as a few small pots of succulents.

Although this old man is old, and he doesn't look like he is rich, but he has a very good life, but I don't know why I haven't seen his children for so many years.
