Chapter 12: The Dinner Party (2)

Li Feng's last warning made the atmosphere suddenly serious. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Panda smiled, and put Su Mu's shoulder very indifferently, and this small move made Su Mu's heart skip a beat. The two looked at the "scenery" on the opposite side side by side.

What kind of scenery?

Of course, it was the wife protector madman Li Feng who was blowing cold tribute pills for Sisi.

"Hey. Panda suddenly spoke to Su Mu.

"What are you doing?"

"Don't worry!" his tone was lazy and inexplicable, "you won't be the protagonist of the 8 o'clock family ethics drama." ”

Su Mu looked at him strangely: "What are you talking about, and are there any?"

Panda smiled, put chopsticks into the hot pot and rummaged, picked up a tribute pill, blew cold, and nagged in his mouth: "Come on." Let's take a tribute pill too!"

Su Mu immediately picked up the bowl and prepared to take the Gong Pill that had been moved, but who knew that Panda was teasing her again, and at the moment when it was about to reach her bowl, he turned around and handed it to Sisi.

Sisi looked disgusted and fed Li Feng.

Well, this kind of plot of dog abuse, Su Mu can only break it by himself.

"What about Zuo Li?" asked Su Mu.

Li Feng, who was still pampered just now, was silent for a few seconds when he heard this name, and then turned his head to look at her: "I can tell you, but keep it secret." ”

"Hmm!"

This gossip with "confidentiality" as the opening naturally made everyone here very interested.

……

The night was getting darker and it was quiet in the cosy cabin.

After Li Feng finished speaking, he leaned back in the chair, put his hand behind Sisi, and looked at the two people opposite.

Sisi's face calmed down rarely, and she looked at him and didn't say anything for a long time.

"Brother Feng, hug it. She said, "I didn't expect your childhood to be so pitiful." ”

At this moment, the handle of the door moved, and a figure pushed the door in. Li Feng didn't care too much, and said with a smile: "Why are you so sensational?"

That being said, he reached out and hugged her.

The two were quiet for a while, and Sisi patted him on the back: "Don't worry, with me in the future, I won't let you go hungry for a month." ”

Li Feng chuckled, and just as he was about to speak, he saw the figure walking towards Sisi.

And then...... Stopped behind Sisi.

The hair is gray, and the face is kind. A pair of big eyes have sunken deeply, the teeth in her mouth have almost been stripped off, a pair of rough hands are crawling with earthworm-like blood vessels, and her weather-beaten face is full of wrinkles, as if recording her 70 years of hardship. At this moment, he was standing behind Sisi with a cane, holding reading glasses, looking at them.

It's not Li Feng's grandmother.

Su Mu and Panda immediately stood up.

Li Feng's eyes were the same as those of the old man, he smiled slightly, and thought about it: "Okay." ”

Sisi felt sorry for him in his heart, and said sullenly: "Hold it for a while, so that my heart can be steady." ”

Su Mu and Panda are both people with seven exquisite hearts. At this point in time, the old man who can enter this room, Li Feng doesn't have to immediately push Sisi away to say hello, naturally only his grandmother mentioned in Li Feng's words just now.

It's just that Li Feng just said that grandma suffers from ear disease and basically can't hear sounds. Just when the two wittily wanted to replace the greeting with an angelic smile, they found that the old man was not interested in the two of them at all.

Her eyes were focused solely on Sisi from beginning to end.

The atmosphere at the scene was not right, Sisi also felt that there seemed to be a figure behind her, she turned around, saw that it was grandma, was stunned for a moment, and immediately let go as if reflexively.

"I'll lean on ......," she whispered.

Li Feng smiled: "What do you rely on?"

Sisi: "Hello grandma!"

"Good, good, good!" replied Grandma with satisfaction.

took out a red envelope in his pocket and put it on Sisi's hand, "In the future, come to see grandma, grandma is not well, and time is running out to see you." Come and see I don't have to buy anything, I don't have teeth. Talk to me, although I can't hear it, but seeing that you young people have serious jobs, food, and beautiful clothes to wear, grandma is happy. ”

Sisi's eyes turned red for a moment.

She remembered her grandmother, who was so old. But because of Alzheimer's disease, every time I go home for the New Year, the old man always wraps the twist in toilet paper and stuffs it into his pocket.

I was stunned for a while.

Sisi looked at the red envelope, but refused to accept it.

Grandma said a little angrily: "This is for the granddaughter-in-law, not too little." I also gave Zuo Li's daughter-in-law, I only have 2 grandchildren, and I am happy to see you start a family. After speaking, he took Sisi's hand, patted the back of her hand, nodded to Su Mu and Panda, staggered his steps, and walked away with a smile.

What did Li Feng mean by "secrecy" just now?

He said: Zuo Li is a cousin who is three years older than him, but this cousin is mixed up outside and often fights and has accidents. Once, in order to pay for his medical expenses, he gave him all the money for food, and he was hungry for a month. What should be kept secret is that he and Li Feng are the most iron-clad brothers! But Jin Se is a ruthless person, and he wants Su Mu not to provoke him and not to cause trouble for himself.

Then before Su Mu could express his position, he ushered in Sisi's distressed gaze.

In fact, he only knows half of Zuo Li, but what he said is that he has reservations about this half.

In the courtyard of Li Feng's house, parents educate their children with two sentences:

The first sentence, you have to work hard and get ahead like Li Feng when you grow up. Admitted to a first-class university and entered a Fortune 500 company.

The second sentence, if you don't study, if you don't study, you will be like Zuo Li in the future, dressed like a dog, and can only drive for the boss all day long.

Actually, that's not entirely true.

It's okay to drive for the boss, but it's very awesome to drive for the master of the underworld hall, Lord Yama. Moreover, Jin Se, the sister of Lord Yan, also sticks to him upside down, and he can give away couples when he sends a car.

Everyone in the courtyard knows that Zuo Li and Li Feng have a relationship, they are cousins. So Zuo Li actually doesn't look bad, but it's just not dazzling enough.

Zuo Li is three years older than Li Feng. When he was in his third year of junior high school, his mother died of cancer, and his father was injured at the construction site. In that year, he did not take the entrance exam, and began to work as a choreo in a restaurant, a car wash, a flyer on the street, and even a coolie on a construction site. Because he is a child laborer, he can do less work, and the unscrupulous boss picks and withholds his salary. His income can barely cover food and clothing.

Later, he began to walk with gangsters, at least the boss would not be beaten, at least he could solve the problem of three meals and clothing, and at least he would not be bullied by others.

In his darkest days, his grandmother was the only one who helped him.

Once Zuo Li and others were fighting by the river, and Li Feng happened to pass by. I don't know why he is so self-conscious and singles out a tall person, so naturally he can only be beaten.

How could a strong-blooded boy see his brother being bullied?

So Li Feng went up to help, but the other party was so powerful that he couldn't pull it out at all.

In a hurry, he saw Zuo Li take out a dagger and stab the other party.

At that time, Li Feng was stupid.

After the other party was stabbed, Zuo Li shouted at Li Feng: Hurry up, the police will come later.

So as for how Zuo Li's hand was injured, he didn't know, but the money for medical treatment and stitches was all paid by Li Feng. Because Li Feng knew that his grandmother felt sorry for this grandson who had no parents. At that time, my grandmother had not yet eaten the subsistence allowance, and usually lived alone in a cottage on the first floor, living by picking up rags and picking up vegetable leaves discarded by vegetable vendors.

Grandma has no money, and Li Feng's parents can't be blamed for not giving money to the elderly. Li Feng's parents were both workers on the assembly line of a suburban tannery, and they got up early and worked late to earn money for Li Feng to learn piano and violin, and to send Li Feng to the best school. And they themselves eat one dish and two meals in the cafeteria three times a day. I usually don't want to spend anything for myself.

Therefore, Zuo Li was injured, and Li Feng didn't want his grandmother to ask his parents for it in a low voice, and he didn't want his parents to quarrel over money. Therefore, he took out his own food money to treat him.

It was only after he was hungry for a month that he really understood why his parents tried their best to smash the pot and sell iron to make him study. To put it bluntly, even if you are poor, there must be a hope that your family can get out of the predicament!

Fortunately, Li Feng did it. With his own hard work, he was admitted to a key university of magic art, and he has been a trainee of Kerry since last year, and he has begun to have a salary.

I remember that day Li Feng was admitted to Kerry, and Zuo Li also became the driver of Yan Wangye, Puzhen Investment Company. The two sat on the river that was a watershed moment in each other's lives, chatting.

"A remnant sun spreads in the water, half of the river is sorrowful and half of the river is red. Looking at the river scenery in front of him, Li Feng, who was in a happy mood, wrote a poem.

There was a soft "click".

Li Feng looked sideways.

The flames jumped, and it was the left side that lit a cigarette. The faint light of the fire illuminated his angular side face, and it was the first time he had worn such a high-quality shirt. The long black and slender eyelashes were slightly closed, and his expression was as indifferent as a relief in the night.

He reached out and shook the match and threw it on the ground.

Li Feng smelled the smell of cigarettes and swallowed his saliva.

Sensing his gaze, Zuo Li turned his head to look at him, a faint smoke coming out of his nose.

He raised his hand and tossed him the cigarette case matches.

Li Feng caught it, pulled out one, lowered his head and lit it, and began to swallow clouds and spit out fog.

Li Feng rarely smokes, firstly, he does not have this spare money, and secondly, he has a bad voice.

But whenever he and Zuo Li are together, I don't know if Zuo Li's smoking posture is too handsome, or if his cigarettes are getting better and better. Today's cigarettes are more expensive than they used to be. Maybe it's because it's expensive, so the tired nerves seem to be relieved. He asked casually: "I've made a fortune recently, the pie has changed, and the cigarettes are expensive!"

Zuo Li looked up and looked at the river scenery in the distance.

The look in his eyes was a little cold.

"Yes. Zuo Liyun was light, "If others bully you, what will you do?"

"Who?" he poked out his cigarette butt on the ground and stood up. "Beat him!"

Zuo Li glanced at his figure, turned his head and continued to smoke, "Can't you win?"

Li Feng: "Run!"

Zuo Li smiled, also stood up, and said: "If you want to be the enemy of the world, the wind and frost are hidden in your eyes." ”

"What's going on?"

"Brother, we're going our separate ways!" Zuo Li waved his right hand without looking back.

Li Feng looked at his back, in fact, he already knew that this day would come sooner or later.

But no matter whether Zuo Li is a villain in the eyes of others, or whether he is scheming, or even it doesn't matter if he kills people and sets fires, in Li Feng's eyes, he recognizes him as a brother.

In Zuo Li's heart, why not?

In contrast, Li Feng is happy, even if he is poor, he has the full support of his parents. So as long as he works hard, he can make a name for himself.

And Zuo Li is lonely, he has no chance to "work hard". He rose from the lowest and darkest places in society and begged for a living on the knife every day.

Therefore, the friendliness on the surface of Zuo Li is full of cold light.

-----------

On the second floor of an old-fashioned building, there is a window in which the light of a tungsten lamp is particularly warm. Accompanied by the curling white water vapor, he should be eating the copper stove hot pot that Li Feng is good at. He hadn't tried that in a long time.

Grandma seems to have been here just now. That girl is more well-behaved than Jinse, and naturally her grandmother will love her. It is estimated that I am in a hurry to stuff red envelopes again.

He had just told the owner of the scrap shop that the next time his grandmother came, he would say that he had won the prize for the plastic bottle cap he had given. Don't say too much, I'm afraid that the old man's heart can't stand it. This time, add another 200 yuan to the original one. The red envelope money still has to be returned.

The smile on his face is usually to hide his true heart, but now the smile on his face is real. The so-called extraordinarily moving.

In that small room, there were three of the most important people in his life, his grandmother, Li Feng and Su Mu.

Su Mu probably knew his name now, and Li Feng probably told him that he was a gangster, and then at most told her that the two were cousins.

It's just that Su Mu still has two more who don't know.

The first "I don't know", she doesn't know, the agreement between herself and Zhang Shen.

Although the brawl on the river brought Zhang Shen to the hospital for a week, it also left a knife mark on the palm of Zuo Li's right hand that ran through the entire palm.

Seventeen-year-old Zhang Shen has one-half Xinjiang ancestry and has been training for the basketball team. Make others tall and strong.

Twenty-one-year-old Zuo Li, who has been hungry and hungry since he was a child, has a thin physique. The skills are all triangular cat kung fu obtained in practice.

The agreed location is by the embankment near the school.

After the two scuffled together, Zuo Li soon found that he was not Zhang Shen's opponent at all, and he had no ability to fight back at all.

Just when Zuo Li was pressed to the ground by him, Li Feng passed by, and the help of the tiger also distracted Zhang Shen's attention.

In a hurry, he picked up the sand on the ground and still looked at Zhang Shen.

Zhang Shen protected his eyes with one hand, and he took out the fruit knife he carried with him and stabbed the other party in the abdomen.

At that moment, Zuo Li only thought about not dragging down Li Feng, the only one around him who could change his fate by reading, so he asked him to run quickly.

At this time, Zhang Shen only felt a heat in his abdomen, and when he was red-eyed, he knew the pain, so he directly pulled out the knife and stabbed it in the direction of the left.

Zhang Shen knelt on one knee, stepped on Zuo Li's left wrist with the other foot, and the handle of the knife held in both hands was just facing Zuo Li's heart.

Zuo Li could only hold the knife edge with his right hand to prevent the knife from penetrating, and blood flowed from his palm.

Zhang Shen still suppressed all the strength of his body.

The tip of the knife has pierced the skin on the chest.

Zuo Li was not afraid of death, but just looked at Zhang Shen coldly.

Zhang Shen smiled. But the smile immediately faded, the face became cold, and the eyes were extremely stubborn.

"Your life is not worth it. Keep your promise not to show up in front of her for five years. He said slowly, letting go of the knife in his hand.

On the silent and empty embankment, only his voice was dry and calm.

It was also in the hospital corridor that day that Zhang Shen helped him get rid of the police questioning. After he recklessly said "Hello, Su Mu!" to Su Mu, he kept his promise and never went to see her again.

In the years that followed, he continued to strengthen his physique and practice martial arts.

However, countless midnight dreams, I still dream of being trampled under Zhang Shen's feet.

What he wants is not only to defeat Zhang Shen, but to have the ability to protect himself and let himself live with dignity!

Su Mu was the second "I don't know", he knew her earlier than Zhang Shen.

Before the family accident, Zuo Li always accompanied his grandmother to set up a stall at the gate of the Youth Palace to earn some living expenses.

Every weekend, Su Mu is the only beautiful girl who has no parents to pick her up at the end of her dance class.

Zuo Li originally wanted to go up to say hello, but he didn't know how to speak. So he could only follow her secretly, and he knew her address as he walked.

That is, after that day, he would hide on the roof opposite the courtyard of Su Mu's house every afternoon, watching the 11-year-old Su Mu practice dancing under the plane tree.

Spring and autumn alternate, and the four seasons overlap.

The next year, a boy named Zhang Shen lived upstairs with her.

He saw that on the afternoon when Zhang Shen had just moved in, he was lying on the windowsill and watching Su Mu dance under the plane tree.

Later, they went to school together, did homework together, and made microphones out of paper cups.

Since Su Mu's parents were often away, Zhang Shen always took her home to eat together.

These are all images that Zuoli longs for but cannot obtain.

Even if there was an accident in Zuo Li's family later, he would still climb on the roof whenever he had time and look at her figure from a distance.

Actually, he has no ambitions. He didn't want to disturb her princess-like life. It's just that the appearance of the prince still aroused the unwillingness in his heart.

Until one day a few years later, Zhang Shen appeared on the roof where he often looked at Su Mu.

He still remembers that guy's rampantness.

So there was that brawl with a huge disparity in strength.

Obviously, Zhang Shen's performance made him very satisfied. This guy is indeed worthy of the little fairy in his heart.
