Chapter 146: Four Men

One of the men with a shaved head and a black vest smiled and smiled, and suddenly the corners of his eyes moistened, "The fourth child's surgery fee is finally here, let's go, let's go to the hospital quickly." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Hearing this bald man say this, the smiles on the faces of the remaining two froze.

Both of them have small flat heads, each wearing a black and white T-shirt, they are not tall, but their exposed arms have clear muscle textures, which are obviously formed by regular exercise.

"Let's go, I'm afraid the fourth child has been waiting for a long time. ”

Saying that, the three of them took the key and were about to go out.

Cao Jinglong parked the car in the parking space near the community, then got out of the car, took out the mobile phone in his pocket, glanced at the address on the text message, and turned his head to the house number outside the community.

Seeing that it was exactly the same, he breathed a sigh of relief.

This place is really hard to find, he ran wrong twice.

Looking up at the community in front of me, the houses are all old-fashioned, the age of the houses is definitely more than 30 years, they are all the old style of decades ago, the spacing between the houses in the community is too small, crowded together, and it gives people a sense of oppression at a glance.

Nearby is the construction site of the high-speed railway, the noon of the summer is still rumbling, the noise of large equipment makes people listen to irritation, and workers with hard hats can be seen everywhere at the entrance of the community.

Cao Jinglong frowned, he asked the building at the gate of the community, and walked towards the seventh building under the guidance of the old doorman.

In the old and narrow corridors and poorly soundproofed walls, from time to time there are voices of residents inside, children crying, quarreling and chopping vegetables.

The light in the corridor is dim, the corridor lights are also broken, there are eight floors in total, but there is no elevator.

Cao Jinglong walked to the eighth floor of the topmost floor in one breath, and it took ten seconds to determine that 801 was on the right.

He raised his hand to ring the doorbell next to him, but found that there was no doorbell in the old building at all, so he could only knock on the iron door instead.

After a while, I heard footsteps approaching inside.

As soon as the three of them got up and walked to the door, there was a knock on the iron door from outside.

Several people looked at each other strangely, and they really couldn't remember who would come to them at this time, and it was still such a hot summer noon.

"Who!"

Cao Jinglong waited outside the door, waiting for the door to be pulled open from the inside.

As soon as he looked up, he was stunned when he saw the three people inside the door.

"Zhou Gouzi!"

"Brother Long, why are you!"

Cao Jinglong was stunned, he couldn't have imagined that the people living in this house were his old acquaintances!

It was the first bald man who was called Zhou Gouzi by Cao Jinglong, in fact, his name was not "Zhou Gouzi", but Zhou Fa, and Zhou Gouzi was just his nickname.

Zhou Fa saw Cao Jinglong's small eyes lit up, and he excitedly grabbed Cao Jinglong's arm, "Company commander, why are you here!"

Kong Hao behind Zhou Fa immediately squeezed him away, "Company commander, do you still remember me!"

Cao Jinglong laughed, "Kong Haozi, you kid, now you also look like an adult!"

"What are you two doing at the door, why don't you hurry up and invite the old company commander in. Kong Xiangyu roared speechlessly.

Zhou Fa and Kong Hao found out that they blocked Cao Jinglong outside the door to talk, which was really not polite.

The two hurriedly invited Cao Jinglong into the house.

By the time the four of them sat together at the square table in the living room and chatted, it was already five minutes later.

Kong Xiangyu specially made a cup of tea for Cao Jinglong, "Old company commander, I still remember that you like to drink tea very much, we don't have any good tea, bargains, don't dislike it." ”

Cao Jinglong nodded Kong Xiangyu with his hand, "You hole slippery head, after so many years, you are still so slippery!"

Kong Xiangyu laughed and sat down beside Cao Jinglong.

Cao Jinglong raised his head and looked carefully at the three people in front of him.

Although the three of them are still quite young now, they have completely shed the childishness of five or six years ago, and they are all mature men.

Suddenly, Cao Jinglong frowned, "Why are there only three of you, the fourth!"

Cao Jinglong's words silenced the three of them.

For a moment, the living room fell into a dull silence.

Zhou Fa and the others were small soldiers led by Cao Jinglong, they had just enlisted in the army at that time, and the reason why Cao Jinglong was particularly impressed with them and even took more care of them was not only because they were his fellow villagers, but also because these people were orphans.

In fact, there are four of them, all of whom grew up in an orphanage in Jinbei City.

When they became adults, they went to the army together.

In addition to Zhou Fa, Kong Hao, and Kong Xiangyu, there is also one of them named Fang Lixin.

Among the four, Zhou Fa is the oldest, and he is ranked according to age, Kong Hao is the second, Kong Xiangyu is the third, and Fang Li is the new and fourth.

The four of them grew up together in an orphanage, and their relationship is very good, among which Fang Lixin is the youngest and the most introverted, and his three brothers usually protect him.

Several people have always been inseparable, and Cao Jinglong still remembers that the four of them went through the discharge procedures together.

When he left the army, four people went to visit him.

Later, he knew from his old comrades-in-arms that Fang Lixin had the opportunity to stay in the army, he had a good mind and was talented in military technology, and their commander tried his best to keep him, but he still refused, and accompanied his brothers to retire without hesitation.

Seeing the dejected looks of several people, Cao Jinglong gasped, "Rabbit cub, speak, where is the fourth!"

Zhou Fa was stunned by the old company commander's yellation, sighed and said: "The fourth child is in the hospital, and we are just about to go out to the hospital to send money to the fourth child." ”

"Hospital, what's wrong with the fourth?" Cao Jinglong's eyebrows wrinkled into a deep furrow.

Hearing Cao Jinglong's inquiry, the three of them didn't hide it anymore and told the story.

After the four of them were discharged from the army, they had no diploma, no technology and no support from their relatives, and they barely made a living by selling their physical strength.

Several people are not very old, and they are new to society, and there are not a few people who endure hardships, and they have finally mixed up for more than a year, and their lives are better.

Everyone's life has gradually stabilized.

But Fang Lixin was dismissed because he carried a black pot for someone in the company.

Fortunately, he usually has a hobby of writing scripts, and he also taught himself relevant courses when he was in the army.

From time to time, he writes scripts on some topics, and then sells them to support his tuition fees for programming courses and his daily living expenses.

This time, he took an order from a small film and television company, and spent half a year writing a script, saying that he would be paid 50,000 yuan, and he could live on this 50,000 yuan for a period of time if he was dismissed from the company.

But the film and television company took advantage of the loophole and took the script but did not pay Fang Lixin, saying that he exceeded the time limit of the contract, breached the contract, and the remuneration was deducted.

Fang Lixin was desperate for a while, he was hit by a van on the way home, and entered the hospital, the van that caused the accident had already fled, but Fang Lixin was still lying on the hospital bed waiting for money to have surgery.
