Chapter 114: I'm in Ether County
In the middle of the night, I sit on the grass by the river and drink beer, and the sparkling water of the river is bone-chilling, which is the symbol of late autumn.
Chu Xi leaned on my shoulder and asked, "Are you angry?"
Angry, of course. Don't be angry, that's a liar, Wang Hua has always been very good in my mind, but I didn't see him for a few months and became like this dog.
"How did Wang Hua and you meet? He calls you Aunt Jiu, you call your father and old man, are you relatives?" I rarely ask about other people's past, how many years is this habit, I did everything possible to pursue Wei Yao, I was most afraid of talking to her about the past, because when it came to He Qiang, Wei Yao must have hid and cried.
"If you want to talk about what I have to do with Brother Hua. I can only say that I have known him since I was a child. Belongs to the kind of childhood sweethearts.。 Her eyes are cunning and innocent, but I know this is the truth, Wang Hua is indeed her childhood sweetheart.
"I remember when I was very young, it happened to be the period when our family was in decline, and I was so poor that I couldn't open the pot, and my father alone was in debt a lot of money. But I vaguely remember some things, that is, Brother Hua and their whole family starved together with our family, at that time, except for me, the two families all went out to work to pay off debts, and my mother's character went to the restaurant to wash dishes, so Brother Hua began to use his brains at a very young age, he tried every means to make money, other children went to school, he didn't go to school and ran out to work, and when he earned money, he subsidized the family, so he gradually got a nickname, and the neighbors called him Xiao Huazi because he was illiterate. ”
Wang Hua can't read? Impossible, I have seen him read newspapers and write with my own eyes. しし已upload
"That was when my dad forced him to learn later, and Brother Hua officially started working hard when he was 12 years old. Do you know about Underground Fist?"
Punch I know. It was a street gambling at night, bloody and cruel full of violence, I knew Tong Hu because I saw him boxing too much, so he was cheeky and ran to make friends, but Wang Huazi played boxing at the age of 12 is a bit exaggerated, I have seen what rules boxing, 12-year-old children are purely looking for death.
"Husband, you misunderstood, Brother Hua doesn't box, he found that boxing is very profitable, so he thought of a way to make money, that is, dog fighting, he fights with dogs, all kinds of dogs, for example, you have confidence in your dog, you can lead to Brother Hua, watch the dog fight with him, so Brother Hua is often bitten, but dog fighting is very profitable, even if he loses, the owner of the dog also rewards Brother Hua with money. ”
Chu Xi said word by word, I stared at the water and didn't say a word, her expression became regretful, "It's a pity that Brother Hua's efforts were not recognized by the two families, and even drove him away, he was sad and discouraged at the time." ”
I can understand his sadness and discouragement, but that kind of approach is too hurtful, and the elders in the family must be distressed.
"Then all of a sudden, one day, our family had money, and suddenly there was a lot of money in the account, my dad said that this money was probably a small part of the inheritance of Uncle Chu Renmei, and our two families gradually improved, but it was Brother Hua who really made this money more money, he took risks to specialize in those risky things, but he didn't expect to get really big after a few years, but he didn't get the approval of the two families, especially his father. ”
Chu Xi said this, Siya came, she sat next to me and continued: "It is said that Wang Hua's father is a conservative representative of our family, stubborn to death, does not advocate children to mix with society, and also takes the uncle's matter as an example, all kinds of forced Wang Hua to wash his name, all of which drove him crazy, and then he ran out of recruitment, we broke up, Wang Hua had to go out by himself to open a mountain and establish a faction, and the elder sister also ran away with him. ”
"You ran away with him?" I lowered my head and squinted at Chu Xi, she opened her mouth to bite my chest, and said with a smile: "You hit me?"
Siya grabbed my arm and said: "Actually, Wang Hua takes the uncle as an idol, every time my father drinks too much and talks about the uncle, Wang Hua listens to it like a fool, and he doesn't blink his eyelids, so the mantra of the uncle back then is Wang Hua's motto now, life in the world, a confidant, a rival, only strive for the present." ”
Chu Xi smiled and said, "As a result, the uncle still hung up." ”
"What the hell did you uncle hang on? ”
Chu Xi didn't know the specific details, she looked at Siya.
Siya frowned and said: "I also heard my father drink and talk about it, the uncle was too awesome back then, and he thought he could, so he went to the mountains and old forests to live in seclusion, lived in a big house, and did not bring bodyguards, but one day at noon, many people came to the door to seek revenge, and the big house was burned to ashes by a fire, but the uncle fought alone and killed a lot of people, it is said that after the fire was extinguished, the house was full of charred corpses, and the uncle was okay, it was worth it." ”
I asked, "Chu Renmei's combat power is so fierce?"
Siya shook her head, "I don't think it's possible, although I haven't seen what the uncle looks like, but I have a very bold idea." ”
She said and looked at me, hooked her head to me, and then said calmly: "You may have killed those people in the fire back then......"
Okay, that's funny, and she added three words, "Your father." ”
I drank a little dizzy, and Siya said, "You two are waiting here." ”
She got up and ran away, bringing back a photo.
I've seen this photo, it's the group photo back then, and the leading figures of the four major families are all on it.
Siya took a flashlight to illuminate the photo and pointed it to the two of us: "Brother-in-law, this is your father, right? This is the tiger woman, that is, your mother, does she look like an old sister?"
Of course it's like nonsense, otherwise I would think Chu Xi is my sister?
"Brother-in-law, don't you understand? Actually, your mother is Chu Renmei, that is, our uncle, in fact, the uncle is not dead, she is not a man, just like me, and the old sister, we all pretended to be men at the beginning, because our family has a ridiculous rule, passed down from our ancestors, women must pretend to be men before they get married, do you know what I mean? And this wolf's head cane. ”
Siya said that the wolf's head staff was turned out of the fire back then, and I suddenly understood what she meant.
Siya said: "I felt something was wrong when I bumped into the tiger woman on the street, she was too similar to the old sister, I was in elementary school at the time, I thought it was the old sister, and I chased and hugged it to know that it was not, but after the tiger woman knew my name, she was very kind to me, and the furniture in her pharmacy still had traces of burning, brother-in-law, you have also seen it." ”
I remember the furniture, when Siya took me to the pharmacy for the first time, I found that the furniture had been burned.
Siya said: "A year and a half ago, the tiger woman collapsed when she saw her brother-in-law, and said that her brother-in-law was her son, and then I saw this photo, I was very puzzled, until one time, it was more than half a year ago, my brother-in-law was recuperating in the pharmacy and couldn't get out of bed, I saw that the wolf's head staff that my brother-in-law lost was in the hands of the tiger woman, she turned it out in the middle of the night and looked at it on the bed, and I heard two clicks, the wolf's head staff was opened by the tiger woman, divided into two sections, it looked like a weapon, and then the tiger woman cried, and repeatedly stroked the line of words on the wolf's head staff, and I suddenly became enlightened. ”
She goes on to analyze: " According to the version I thought, the tiger woman is Chu Renmei, when the four major families of Jiangzhou negotiated, Chu Renmei and your father were not at first sight, but fell in love at first sight, they were attracted by the charm of the other party, just like you and the elder sister, so Chu Renmei suddenly changed her hexagram, and she did not hesitate to tear her face with several major families to keep the person in her heart, and then a love took root, they fell in love, and ran to retreat whimsically, but they were targeted by the enemy, so a bloody battle began at noon, your father desperately protected his wife and children, and killed many people with a wolf's head staff, but the good tiger couldn't stand the wolves, and he died。 ”
I stared at the man in the photo and didn't say anything, Siya said: "I asked the tiger woman, how their husband and wife are feeling, she said that her husband is very good to her, take her as a life, but you can imagine when the enemy rushed into the door, how helpless they were, your father desperately wanted to save his wife and children, but he died, which brought too much stimulation to the tiger woman, so she drank every afternoon, drunk until the evening, it is estimated that this time is the time when the enemy rushed into the door, she did not dare to recall this period before drinking." ”
I asked, "Then why didn't she go back to the Chu family to gather people to take revenge, she is Chu Renmei, she should have this ability, but she didn't take revenge when her husband died?"
Siya shook her head: "No, brother-in-law, you don't know Chu Renmei's history, if she is really Chu Renmei, she will definitely use the most cruel means to take revenge on the enemy, and she will definitely return it a hundred times and a thousand times." ”
To be honest, my good mood is gone, and after Siya said these words, there is no good mood left.
"You two go back first, and the photos will be left. I looked down and rubbed my face, and they walked hand in hand.
I picked up the photo and looked at it closely, but I couldn't see anything secretly, but there was a very sad picture in my mind, which kept flashing in front of my eyes.
I also fantasize that if Chu Xi was in a big house, surrounded by deep mountains and old forests, and then many enemies crashed open the door and rushed into the house, only I was present to protect Chu Xi, as well as our children, what would I be like?
It doesn't matter if I die, my wife and children want to live, so despair and fear weave into a devastating anger, I can imagine how powerless that feeling is, and the conclusion is that he died too miserably, really.
Picked up the mobile phone and called my mother, I suddenly wanted to chat with her, talking, tried a few times but didn't get through, okay I called Wei Yao, she said to accompany my mother every day, I said on the phone in the afternoon, I didn't forget.
"Hey, it's me, are you sleeping?"
The phone was dialed, Wei Yao was quiet, her tone was very relaxed, and she replied, "No, what's wrong with you?" ”
She spoke in an echo that sounded like she was in a very spacious room, and I asked, "You're not home?"
"Oh, I'm here at the mahjong parlor, I'll take a look at the account. Her voice was sweet and felt weird, so I put down the photo and asked, "Are you in the mahjong parlor?" ”
She replied in seconds: "Okay, you wait for me, I'll wake her up." ”
It's still called when she's asleep, but I'm relieved when she says that, at least she doesn't run around in the middle of the night.
"Okay, don't call her, my mom went there at night, I can't call her. ”
She replied in the same second: "I've been, I didn't leave until my aunt went to sleep, can't I get through the phone?" Okay, don't worry, I'll go to the pharmacy now to take a look, and I'll call you in half an hour." ”
"Don't go so late, you said that I was solid when she slept, she was willing to drink before she went to bed, it's not strange that she couldn't hear the bell, and you should go home early. ”
She smiled and said, "I know, I'll go back immediately, by the way, Youtang, where are you, how are you staying?" ”
Actually, there's no need to hide it from her, Chu Xi and I are not dragon and phoenix fetuses, we should be together openly.
"I'm in Ether County, don't worry, Li Jiahe and they are with me, you go back to sleep early, send me a text message when you get home, good night." ”
