Hu Xiaoke went upstairs, Hu Xiaoke had no choice, reached out to take the cabbage in Aunt Huang's hand, helped Aunt Huang upstairs, and said, "Auntie, why don't you want to change to a shorter house? You are old now, and it is too hard to climb the stairs every day." ”

Aunt Huang said: "Yes, I can't walk, I used to go up and down the stairs like playing at that time, but now I have to climb for a long time and have to rest a few times." "Aunt Huang's family lives on the seventh floor, which is really a bit tall for the old lady. The building of Hu Xiaoke's house is not the highest, and there are eleven floors in the middle of the mountain behind, which is also a walking staircase.

Hu Xiaoke asked: "Auntie, what are your rich brothers doing now?"

Aunt Huang said: "The boss went to work, the recruitment of Cup Steel was expanded, and a new factory was added, I went to Wuchang to study, and I came back to work in the new factory." The second child is setting up a stall outside, selling some needles and threads, I don't know if he makes money or not, and he won't tell me. You're all older, mother. ”

On the seventh floor, Aunt Huang opened the door, the two of them entered the house, Hu Xiaoke sent the cabbage to the kitchen, and Aunt Huang helped Hu Xiaoke pour a glass of boiled water. Hu Xiaoke said: "Fusheng's own way? ”

Aunt Huang sat down and beat her legs and said, "What kind of way to find, how can our family have a way." This time to recruit workers, Benxi Iron and Steel over 40 years old, children at home without a job can sign up, so I was chosen, luck. I told him not to talk nonsense, he just chose to have fun and did not care what else to do. ”

Hu Xiaoke asked: "Auntie, what about my mother? What about Xiaoyan? Didn't my family move away?"

Aunt Huang said, "What are you moving, where are you moving?" Xiaoyan is selling clothes in the market below, and your mother is sending food. By the way, you really didn't run away, did you?"

Hu Xiaoke said: "It's really not, what do I run to work?"

Aunt Huang said: "Then why haven't there been any letters for several years?"

Hu Xiaoke said: "I'm in a foreign country, and I don't have a phone at home, how can I contact me?"

Aunt Huang was stunned for a moment: "What country can you toss when you go to a foreign country? Watching TV doesn't mean that foreign countries are always at war, you can't eat or wear, that kid is hungry, dark and thin, where can you make money when you go?"

Hu Xiaoke said: "No, the conditions of foreigners are much better than ours, where is the TV playing? Which market is downstairs?"

Aunt Huang said: "It's not a vegetable market, it's the original labor service company, pickpocketed, a new large building, several floors below are markets, selling everything, at that time the unemployed family is in difficulty to go to the street to sign up, your swallow is selected, saying what is free deposit and rent, and I forgot to be free for a few years."

Your Xiaoyan is lucky, and there is an interest-free loan, so she did it. Your mother didn't dare at the beginning, saying that a loan is borrowing money, I'm afraid that I can't pay it back, Xiaoyan is bold, and the crow quietly did it, saying that the business is very good, and this has been done for more than half a year. ”

Hu Xiaoke stood up and said, "I'll take a look." ”

Aunt Huang said: "Let's go and see, I thought you sneaked out, hehe, go ahead, I haven't seen you for several years." Come to my aunt's house for dinner in the evening. ”

Hu Xiaoke couldn't wait to come out of Aunt Huang's house and run downstairs, and Aunt Huang shouted above: "Second floor, second floor clothing hall." ”

"Hey, I heard you, I'll come back to see your aunt in the evening. ”

trotted all the way to the labor service company. It's not far, the road here is all uphill, and the place is in the lower area, and it takes a mile to go down the slope along the road.

This piece is a residential building built by Cup Steel in about 85 years, with eight floors, nine floors and eleven floors, which was originally the highest building, and more than a dozen new elevator buildings with dozens of floors stand in the old building, which is particularly conspicuous.

When the car came up, Hu Xiaoke was so focused on going home that he didn't pay attention at all.

The three floors below the new building group are the market, and the whole area is a three-storey large-scale comprehensive market covering an area of more than 20 acres.

Hu Xiaoke walked in happily, and there was a commotion and a sea of people inside.

Follow the walking elevator in the atrium to the second floor, follow the signs to find the clothing area, and Hu Xiaoke looks for it one by one. Suddenly, Hu Xiaoke raised his eyebrows, and he saw a particularly familiar mark on a stall, a black paw print.

Hu Xiaoke turned his head to look around, and there was a mark in his sight, he leaned over and asked, "Dude, ask about something." ”

The stall owner, a man in his twenties, looked over and asked, "What's the matter?"

Hu Xiaoke pointed to the mark on the sign: "What does this mean? ”

The stall owner glanced up and said, "Not only me, but there are more than a dozen stalls here, all of which have rent-free and interest-free loans." ”

Hu Xiaoke felt an inexplicable excitement in his heart, and asked, "What is your name? Do you have a brother?"

The stall owner looked at Hu Xiaoke suspiciously, and said, "My name is Wang Zhijun, and I don't have a brother,"

Hu Xiaoge said: "Wang Zhihui. Wang Zhihui is your brother, uh, no brother? Wang Zhihui is you?"

Wang Zhijun said, "My brother, what's wrong?"

Hu Xiaoke clenched his fists vigorously and said, "It's okay, I'm your brother's colleague, and we work together." ”

Wang Zhijun was eating a piece of cake in his hand, he was stunned, and the cake fell down: "What did you say?"

Hu Xiaoke said: "I am a colleague of Wang Zhihui, and we work together. You two don't look alike. ”

Wang Zhijun turned his head and shouted, "Dad, Dad, you come out." ”

This stall is relatively large, and there is a compartment in it, and a man with a stubble comes out: "What's wrong?"

Hu Xiaoke recognized at a glance that this was Wang Zhihui's father, who looked very similar.

Wang Zhijun pointed at Hu Xiaoke and said, "Dad, he said that he is Xiaohui's colleague, and they work together." ”

Wang's father was stunned: "Xiaohui?

Wang Zhijun said: "Isn't that all random guessing. Come in, buddy, come in and sit down for a while. He turned his head to Hu Xiaoke and said, pointing to a baffle on the side of the stall, where people can get in.

Hu Xiaoke said: "No, my sister is also selling things here, I just came back, I only have seven days off, I have to go to my sister's place to have a look." ”

Wang Zhijun said, "Which is your sister?"

Hu Xiaoke said: "I'm looking for it, she also sells clothes, I guess, she also has this." He pointed to the paw print.

Wang Zhijun thought for a while and said, "You go inside, turn right and then turn left, at the staircase, there is a family that also has this mark, and the stall is bigger than mine, so it's easy to find." Why don't you come in and sit down for a while? Where is Xiaohui now?"

Dad Wang had already walked over: "Do you know Xiaohui, where do you work, what do you do?"

Brother Hu Xiao nodded to Wang's father: "Uncle, I am Wang Zhihui's comrade-in-arms, we have been abroad and in Europe for the past few years, and we have been running around, and everyone has not been able to contact home, don't worry, it's all good, he is now the leader of the transportation team and a cadre." We were walking together. ”

Dad Wang grabbed his hands on the placket: "What you said is true?
