Chapter 110: The Great Mourning of the Bird Gate
I walked all the way back, stumbling like I was stepping on cotton.
Should I tell the old man the news? Dong Bo is his only elder, and he is also the only memory of that era and his master. Now that Dong Bo is gone, can the old man accept it......
I didn't go home, I went to the old man's villa, wanting to be alone.
Sitting in an empty villa, my heart is uncomfortable. I dug my hands deep into my hair and grabbed my scalp.
Suddenly, the phone rang. The villa was a bit empty, and the sudden noise startled me.
It's an old man! He invited me to video.
I quickly accepted it, the old man in the picture lost a lot of weight, and he was a little unshaven and looked haggard.
"Kaede-chan. The old man's voice was low and sad.
"Master, I'm ...... I didn't take good care of Dongbo. At this point, I couldn't hold myself back anymore and cried.
After a long time, when I calmed down, I looked up and found that the old man in the opposite camera was also red-eyed.
"Xiao Feng, I know, you did your best. You're good to Dongbo. The old man uttered these words very slowly, so slowly that I could hear that he was trying to restrain himself, and his voice was full of tremors.
"Master, you know everything. β
"Hmm," the old man nodded across from him.
"Uncle Dong is a good person, I heard Meng San'er say it. "I cried.
"Yes, if Wu Da Conscience hadn't found out later and took Uncle Dong over to support him, I would have planned to take Uncle Dong to live with him. β
"Hmm. β
"Xiao Feng, what are you going to do next?"
"I don't know, I've been waiting for the bird gate to make a move, but in the current situation, they shouldn't be in such a hurry......"
The old man nodded: "Well, we have a tradition in this business. The eldest elder in the gang died, and he didn't do business for a month. In order to let the deceased relatives go with peace of mind. β
"Well, I guess the bald head won't be looking for me for the time being. β
"Xiao Feng, you still have a lot to learn. You might as well use this month to hone your skills. β
"Yes, Master. I listen to you. β
I still felt very uncomfortable after hanging up the phone, but it was much better after chatting with the old man.
At least the old man is still there, the sky has not fallen, and there is still a long way to go.
When I went out to eat, there were already thousands of lights outside, so I walked to a small restaurant and asked for a bowl of dumplings.
Maybe I'm in a different mood today, I'm eating very slowly, I'm picking up a spoon and putting food in my mouth, when I was suddenly startled by a little couple opposite!
I saw that the girl was sitting without saying a word, with her eyes down. The boy across from her jumped up from the table like crazy, whining and shouting, pointing at what the girl was saying. But he was too excited to hear clearly.
The girl listened quietly, and took a sip of water from the water cup.
The boy cried and shouted......
Seeing this, the boss was afraid that it would affect other diners, so he went up to persuade him.
"Oh, what's the little one arguing about?, if you have something to say, you can do it first!" the boss reached out and pressed the boy's shoulder. The boy grew very tall and threw the boss away.
"Do you know what she did?" the boss was stunned...... Shaking his head blankly.
"She's lied to me for six whole years!" the boy said almost in tears.
As soon as I heard the word "deception", I immediately came to my senses!
It is estimated that it is already an occupational disease...... I leaned in and listened.
"Oh, didn't the little couple speak clearly? There is a misunderstanding!" the hotel owner tried to persuade.
"No, it's been made clear. The girl sitting across from her suddenly spoke.
When she raised her head, I could see her appearance clearly, very delicate. A small face, a pair of almond eyes reveal charm, a small cherry mouth under the small mouth, and a pointed chin is very handsome.
At this time, I turned my head to look at the boy, and the two were very compatible! The boy was about 1.83 meters tall, with big eyes and a high nose, but his face had been distorted by anger.
"It's me who I'm sorry for you. The girl stood up and took her bag and was about to leave, but the boy cried and grabbed her: "No, you have to make it clear to me!"
The girl turned her face fiercely and stared at the boy coldly: "I lied to you, for six whole years, I have been lying! I am just an ordinary girl from an ordinary family, poor to death!"
The people in the small restaurant were stunned, but they didn't expect the girl to say it like this......
The boy was also stunned, grabbed the girl's arm blankly, and stood in place.
The girl put the bag down, turned to all the diners in the restaurant and said, "I liked him when I was a freshman, and it was love at first sight for him." But a fool can see that he has a good family. And I'm nothing but a local......"
The girl choked up, and her eyes were a little red.
"So I approached him, talked to him, made him fall in love with me, and also forged an identity for myself: rich girl!"
"Do you think I'm not tired?" the girl turned her head to look at the boy, and both of them had tears in their eyes, and they were both emotional. After all, after six years, even if you have a dog, you have feelings.
"I got several credit cards in college, and I demolished the east wall and made up the west wall, just so that you could look up to me! My designer bag, luxury goods, all my food and clothing, are all fucking borrowed!" The girl completely broke down, yelled and shook off the boy's hand, and squatted on the ground alone and cried.
The boy slowly squatted down and said in a low voice, "Actually, you don't have to be so rich. I'm still going to love you. β
The girl's shrugging shoulders stopped, she raised her teary eyes, smiled and shook her head.
"You're still so naΓ―ve. Where in this world is there any long-term love, but it is just face and vanity. β
The boy's face changed: "No, it's not as dirty as you think, okay?"
The girl smiled desperately, and that smile was a little poignant: "If I were Cinderella, then the one standing next to me must not be the prince." β
The boy wanted to say something, but the girl got up and ran out, disappearing into the crowd of night.
The people in the small restaurant were dumbfounded, and this was the first time I had seen such a situation.
I thought it was some kind of scam, but I was able to show my skills, but I didn't expect it to be an emotional debt......
You love me, and no one is forced to love whom, this should be the most difficult scam in the world to solve.
The boy wiped his tears with his sleeve and asked the boss, "How much?"
The boss didn't expect to encounter this kind of idol drama in his dumpling restaurant, "No need young man, I don't think that girl is a bad person, maybe she likes you too much." β
The boy smiled coldly, took out a hundred yuan and put it on the table, and turned to leave.
The rest of us were still standing in a daze...... My phone rang suddenly, and I saw that it was a swallow.
"Xiao Feng, do you have time tomorrow?"
"What's wrong Swallow, I should be OK. β
"I'll leave Uncle Dong's house tomorrow, you can take me. β
"Okay, I'll pick you up in my car. β
"Well, remember the disguise. β
"Okay, how are you doing over there?"
"I'm fine, I've been preparing for Dongbo's funeral for the past two days. Alas. β
"I'll pick you up tomorrow, we've done our best to Uncle Dong, don't blame yourself too much. β
"See you tomorrow morning. β
The next day, I got up early and took a picture of my brother's face according to the picture of the swallow. I drove the old man's ordinary Nissan and came to Jiuqu Lane.
As soon as I got out of the car, I was stunned, there were wreaths at the entrance of Jiuqu Lane, and a long white silk line was paved on the whole street.
The alley, which was not spacious, became even more crowded, and many people stood in the alley shuttling back and forth and were busy, without exception, wearing white ribbons on their heads and filial piety medals on their shoulders.
These people ...... Are they all here to mourn Dongbo?
I curiously walked into the gate of the bird, the big black wooden door of the gate was open, the door panel was pasted with two pieces of white paper, and the door was decorated with two white paper lanterns hanging left and right, and the atmosphere of sadness and slaughter was very strong.
There were so many people who came to pay their respects, and no one paid attention to me when I stepped through the door.
followed the flow of people to the lobby, and Dong Bo's huge photo hung in the middle of the lobby, which should be Dong Bo's appearance when he was young, with a good spirit and a pair of bright eyes.
I saw Wu Da kneeling on the welcome seat, thanking every guest who came to pay his respects. Overnight, Wu Da seemed to be several years old, as if he was already an old man.
At this time, I couldn't turn around following the flow of people, so I had to kneel down and kowtow to Dong Bo.
Wu Da wanted me to thank him, and his eyes flickered: "Who is this?"
I was thinking about how to explain when I suddenly heard the swallow's voice: "Little brother, you are finally here." β
Turning his head, Yanzi was also dressed in a solemn dress, with a white turban, a white shirt, and white pants.
"Oh, master, this is my little brother. I moved out today, and I can't finish my things by myself, so let him help me. β
"Oh. Wu Da nodded.
"I'll go get something for you. "I said woodenly.
"Well, follow me. β
Walking out of the lobby, I asked Swallow, "How did you recognize me?"
"Only you can figure out what I look like, and besides, even if I don't look at your face, I can recognize your demeanor and body shape. β
"Hey, hey. However, I still feel very sad in my heart, and I want to kowtow to Dong Bo. β
"Alas," Swallow sighed, "the deceased is gone, and we will fulfill Dongbo's wish." β
"Hmm. "I understand that Yanzi's words are not only for Dong Bo alone, but also a mission.
