225, Mr. Dong Guo and the wolf
That night, Wang Qi was in Liu Yufen and Guo Dahai's shop, drinking and chatting with the two of them.
Liu Yufen made a few dishes, the dishes are either enamel bowls, or stainless steel small basins, which are really not good-looking, but the taste is strangely good, not worse than the restaurant outside!
It seems that the other party's statement to him just now that "there is nothing to love, only love to eat" is not an exaggeration. With this kind of taste and this kind of craftsmanship, even if the two of them do not sell pipes in the steel market and open a small restaurant in a crowded place, they can still have a prosperous business and maintain a well-off life.
Wang Qi praised Liu Yufen's craftsmanship fiercely, and Liu Yufen laughed happily, and after laughing, he said to him:
"Xiao Qi, since you think Aunt Liu's cooking is delicious, then you will come over often in the future, okay? Aunt Liu will make you something to eat, and you can also accompany the two of us to drink two cups by the way, bragging, and talking. Usually we don't have many people here, just your aunt and Uncle Guo, sometimes they feel quite lonely. As she spoke, Liu Yufen used chopsticks to clip a piece of chicken wings from "Braised Taro Chicken" to Wang Qi's bowl.
"Thank you, Aunt Liu. Now that I know, I will definitely come to you and Uncle Guo to fight the autumn breeze when I have time!" Wang Qi smiled, owed, grabbed his beer bottle, and filled the cups with Liu Yufen and Guo Dahai.
"Hahahaha...... Welcome, welcome, welcome! The two of us just feel that the house is not hot, it is deserted, and there is no popularity!" Liu Yufen clapped her hands, laughed, and then tested Wang Qi, "Not only Xiaoqi is coming, but next time you must remember to bring your girlfriend over, so that it will be lively!"
Wang Qi touched the tip of his nose a little embarrassed, nodded and said, "Okay, Aunt Liu, next time I'll bring the one from my family over and ask you to help me grow my eyes and give advice." "I said this, but I had a hard time in my heart, and I didn't know whether it was better to bring Yu Wenli or Zhang Qin.
"Haha...... I don't dare to mention your opinions, Uncle Guo and I are satisfied. We believe that Xiao Qi, you look at people's eyes ......"
The two sides ate and drank, drank and chatted, and the atmosphere was very harmonious and enjoyable.
But Wang Qi's heart has always been thinking about the "golden chain" called Niu Er with a sideways face. The two of them have not mentioned the "golden chain" for such a long time, and it is inconvenient for Wang Qi to ask. Now, after a few glasses of beer, Wang Qi also fully felt the sincere kindness and care released by Liu Yufen and Guo Dahai to him, so he no longer had scruples, and after toasting the two of them with a glass of wine, he pretended to ask casually:
"By the way, Aunt Liu, Uncle Guo, when I came, I saw you arguing with a young man named Heng, what the hell is going on?"
As soon as he asked, the two of them, who were still happy and peaceful, suddenly became depressed and sad.
"Alas, Xiao Qi, that Niu Erwa, what a white-eyed wolf! I think at the beginning, if I hadn't pulled him with your Uncle Guo and asked him to bring him to the steel market to do steel business, where would he have today......?
Next, Liu Yufen lamented the story of the cow's ear to Wang Qi. His husband Guo Dahai was drinking wine one by one, occasionally interjecting a few sentences.
——————————
From the mouths of the two, Wang Qi learned that this fat head and big ears, a meat cow ear, turned out to be Liu Yufen and Guo Dahai's hometown Jijiang fellow countrymen, not only that, but this cow ear was also their late son Guo Kaile from the open crotch pants, and the relationship between the two families was very close before.
Later, Liu Yufen, who was quite bold, borrowed money from everywhere, and the two of them left the well with 2,000 yuan on their backs, and went to Jiangcheng to work hard, starting from the initial bricks on the construction site, and later opening a small restaurant, five or six years ago, when the real estate in China started, he went to the building materials market to rent a shop, do building materials business, and become bigger step by step. Just when the business was getting better, the two of them set up another store in the steel market, preparing to expand the scale, and preparing to take their son, who followed his grandparents in his hometown and had already studied in high school, to Jiangcheng to enjoy the blessings.
Their son Guo Kaile, when he went swimming in the river with his classmates during the summer vacation, was drowned in the water, and his body was not even found!
The accidental death of his son is a completely unbearable blow to this ordinary family!
First of all, Guo Kaile's grandparents felt sorry for their grandson because of guilt, and the second elder who was even more sorry for his son and daughter-in-law died in less than two years because of excessive sadness and depression, and went to Huangquan Road to chase their grandson who was raised by their own hands.
Then, Liu Yufen and Guo Dahai, who had lost their children for a long time, also lost their head and goal all of a sudden, and they had no intention of expanding their business, so they sublet out another shop, and only bought a house in Jiangcheng after burying their parents in their hometown, as a pension for the two old people in the future. The sad two of them in their hometown didn't dare to go back, go back once, cry once. Moreover, the three closest people in my hometown are gone, and it is useless to go back.
Because at the funeral of the son and his parents, the son's hair and calf ears helped a lot, and the night before they left, Niu Er came to the home of the two, knelt on the ground of the two of them, kowtowed, and swore to the sky, although Guo Kaile is gone, but please rest assured that his aunt and uncle will take over the responsibility and courage of Kaile in the future, treat their two elders as their biological parents, take care of the sores and diseases of the two elders, and send the two elders to the end after they die. Niu Er begged the two to lead him to Jiangcheng, from now on, he would be filial piety for Guo Kaile!
Niu Er knelt again, kowtowed, and swore again. The two of them were soft-hearted, and after a brief discussion, they said that as long as his parents agreed, they could take him to Jiangcheng. Anyway, Niu Er is also idle in his hometown, not serious, since he is Kaile's hair small, the relationship between the child and Kaile is good, the two families also have contacts, in the funeral of the son and his parents, the other party also helped a lot, made a lot of efforts, the two also want to pull the idle Niu Er at home, even if it is to repay each other's love.
Niu Er ran to Guo's house to kneel and kowtow, and he had to go to Jiangcheng with the two of them, which must have been approved by his parents in advance.
So, when they returned to Jiangcheng the next day, Liu Yufen and Guo Dahai had a short, tendony cow ear by their side.
Yes, four or five years ago, the cow's ears were not at all as fat and big ears as they are now, and they were full of fat, and they were completely thin and malnourished!
Niu Er, who arrived in Jiangcheng, has been behaving very well in the first year, serving tea and pouring water to Liu Yufen and Guo Dahai, shouting and asking for warmth, completely looking like a "filial son".
Half a year later, they put out their old faces, took back the shop that was subleased half a year ago, and let Niu Er operate, for which they also accompanied a large amount of liquidated damages.
Not only that, in order to let Niu Er's business get on the road as soon as possible and have income as soon as possible, the two of them also introduced many of their regular customers to Niu Er to help him open up the situation.
In this way, with the help of the two people, money and efforts, the fledgling Niu Er quickly got on the right track, and in less than half a year, whether it was turnover or net income, it had surpassed Liu Yufen and Guo Dahai, who had worked hard in Jiangcheng for many years.
In this regard, the two of them have no jealousy, only happiness, because the two of them who have no son have no interest in making money and working hard, they just hope to be able to keep the current shop and keep working, and when they can't do it anymore, they will retire and return to the apartment they bought in Jiangcheng to spend the last years of their lives.
However, what the two never expected was that just when Niu Er's business was on the right track and his wings grew stiff, this person's attitude towards them also began to change dramatically.
First of all, I have less time to come to them, and I used to come three times a day to "say goodbye" in the morning, noon and evening.
Now, it's a ghost who can't see each other for a week, or even a month.
Then, he was diligent and thrifty, and his down-to-earth and hard-working style of life was also completely lost, and he began to use the money he earned to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, and mixed with a group of people in the society.
The two old mouths naturally did not want to personally bring out the villagers and younger generations to learn badly, and privately said that the cow ear was several times, but every time the cow ear was in the left ear and the right ear out, nodding in front of the face "mmmmmmmm
Even, when the two of them persuaded Niu Er for the last time, Niu Er directly and impatiently reprimanded the two people, saying that their way of doing business was no longer feasible, and that it was completely at the end of the road and had no future! He used to say that it was difficult to say that the two of them had the grace of knowing him, but the two of them "gave him shamelessness" and "had to make inches" wanted to "interfere with him", "blindly pointed at him", and "gave him bad ideas because he was jealous of his business", and he was "unbearable or unbearable", and he really couldn't see it.
“…… Sister Liu, Brother Guo, you two old guys don't rely on the old and sell the old noise in front of me in the future, I don't like to hear it, and I don't want to listen to it! Today is the last time I will listen to your noise, I don't want to have a next time! In the future, we will each go our own Yangguan Road, and the water will not violate the river.
"That's it, Little Liu, send off!" Niu Er waved his hand at the horse boy he brought out from his hometown, and asked the horse boy to send off the guest. The titles of Liu Yufen and Guo Dahai have also changed from the original "aunt" and "uncle" to "Sister Liu" and "Brother Guo", making themselves directly from juniors to peers.
The two of them were shocked, that unbelievable, and that angry! Liu Yufen wanted to raise her hand to slap Niu Er on the spot, but was pulled by her husband.
"Let's go, old woman! We should treat our former kindness as if we had never met such a white-eyed wolf!" Guo Dahai was so angry that his lips trembled, and his wife who couldn't speak was so angry that he dragged his wife outward.
"Hehe, go slowly, don't send it! Don't come in the future! The day is full of opportunities, and it's very busy, and no one will receive you when you come!" Niu Er "hehe" twice, saying the words of the Yin Tan, with a look of disdain.
