In winter, it gets dark quickly, and by the time we finish eating, it's pitch black outside. Shen Suzhen's mother and daughter cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, moved the table to the side, and Li Feng set up the bed.

Zhao Yingdi saw that she wanted to say something, but she felt that it was difficult to say, so she climbed upstairs without a sound. Shen Suzhen and his wife greeted Li Feng and went upstairs.

The fifteen-watt electric light emitted a dim glow, which made Li Feng feel warm. Lying on the bed, with a pillow raised, half-propped up, flipping through the books I bought from the second-hand book stall.

The content of the book is not exciting, and the plot is vulgar and old-fashioned, but for Li Feng, it is different. He didn't study for a few years and started working, and his brother often taught him that he could basically read some books independently. However, it takes a few more readings to understand what the book is mainly about, and what the author aims to tell people.

He reads like a cow eating grass, first gulping down the grass, and then regurgitating it into his mouth after a while to continue chewing. This reading method has improved his reading ability, and he can read some ordinary texts thoroughly.

Just as I was looking at it with relish, there was a slight sound on the stairs. Li Feng was startled, only to see Zhao Yingdi tiptoeing down. He was about to say something, but Zhao Yingdi put her index finger to her mouth and signaled not to speak.

She walked gently to the side of the bed, half-leaned down, and said close to Li Feng's ear with her mouth, "Do you usually sleep like this all the time?"

Zhao Yingdi's voice was very small, but Li Feng could hear it clearly, and the sound that came out was like a soft ribbon, burrowing into his ears, continuing to his throat, and from his throat to his trachea, making him a little sluggish. Suddenly, it ran into his heart again, and the ribbon turned into a pair of slender hands, gently plucking the strings in his heart.

Li Feng breathed rapidly, there was a stove beside him, his whole body became hot, and he wanted to answer her, but those words circled in his throat for a while and he couldn't spit it out. Only two squeaks. Zhao Yingdi couldn't help laughing when she heard his voice, and immediately covered her mouth and looked upstairs.

Upstairs was quiet, and there was no movement. So he became bold, moved away from Li Feng, and his voice was a little louder: "Tell you a word, why are you blushing?"

Li Feng hurriedly touched his face, his face was very hot, and he remembered that his hands didn't seem to be so hot when he had a fever. "Is it true? Do I blush? If my face turns purple when it is red. He disguised himself and said with self-deprecation: "A person as black as me can't see it even if he blushes." ”

No matter how Zhao Yingdi looks at him, he is red, not purple.

It turned out that after Li Feng came to Shanghai for a while, due to the lack of wind and sun, his originally dark face began to become fair. His face is already good-looking, his eyes are big and bright, and he has two heroic eyebrows, which is very handsome and handsome when he looks under the light.

As the saying goes, which girl doesn't have spring, looking at Li Feng, Zhao Yingdi couldn't help but be a little stunned.

There was silence in the room, except for two young men staring at each other. Zhao Yingdi looks like Shen Suzhen, with a small and delicate body, melon seed face, a small and straight nose, not very big eyes, but she looks like she can speak, and her black hair is draped over her shoulders, which deeply intoxicates Li Feng.

He couldn't help but compare the girl in front of him with Qian Liman, one was straightforward and enthusiastic, the other was generous and clever, the other was small and exquisite, the other was slender and slender, one eye could speak lively, and one eye would shine brightly. Looking at her in front of me, I thought about her in my heart, thought about her in my heart, and looked deeply at her in front of me.

I don't know how long it took, but the two of them said in unison: "You..." and quickly shut up at the same time. Or Zhao Yingdi said first: "Are you used to coming here? Are you tired from work? I've been at school, tell me about things outside." ”

Li Feng didn't know where to start, he swallowed his saliva, and said step by step: "I'm used to it now, I am tired when I live, and I am not tired when I don't have a lot of time." ”

"Isn't that nonsense? Tell me about something you ran into outside. ”

When Li Feng arrived in Shanghai, he did see many things in various forms. Shanghai is a kaleidoscope, and all kinds of things play out every day. He started with a story about fraud.

Once, when he went to buy goods, he met a man in his twenties carrying a package at the entrance of an alley, and a slightly older woman was not far away.

He didn't pay attention at the time, but when he was done and passed by again, he found that they were still in this alley. But the man was shouting at the woman, and the woman was crying in a low voice.

He couldn't help but ask the man what was going on, and the man said that the old woman had come to Shanghai to look for relatives, and had stayed in his inn for several days without paying, but said that he had not found any relatives. Today, I wrapped her to mortgage the house money, but she didn't agree and didn't leave.

After listening to the man's words, he asked the old woman again, and the old woman cried and said that the man in her hometown had died, and she had come to Shanghai to join her relatives, and she didn't have much money on her, only enough money for a few meals, and her relatives couldn't find it, so she really couldn't do anything.

He felt very pitiful when he heard this, so he asked how much he owed for the house, and helped her pay it off, and gave her a few dollars for food.

Later, when I told the boss, the boss said that he had been fooled, and that the man and the old woman were in a gang, and they specialized in defrauding people of money by this kind of trick, and there were many such people in Shanghai.

When Zhao Yingdi heard this, she thought that he was away from home, and he didn't have much money around him, and he would lend a helping hand when he saw others in difficulty. Although he was deceived, he was still moved by Li Feng's kind heart.

So he comforted him and said, "It's okay, just ask for food." ”

Li Feng said: "I think so too, but Uncle Zhao blames a few words." It is said that it is because there are too many people like me that there will be more scammers in Shanghai. If he were as shrewd, the liar would either improve or fuck off. Later, Aunt Shen found out and quietly made up the money to me, telling me to pay attention when I went out. ”

The topic was a bit heavy, and Zhao Yingdi didn't want to continue, so she said, "Let's talk about something funny." So Li Feng said another thing.

One day, I went to the Sichuan Hotel to deliver briquettes, and I saw a group of people gathered at the door of the hotel. He squeezed in to take a look, and it turned out that there was a middle-aged man squatting on the stone steps with his head in his hands, and several guys and Boss Wu were scolding.

He stepped forward to ask Boss Wu what was the matter, and Boss Wu said: "Someone ordered several dishes just now, but there was no money to pay the bill after eating." Originally, we didn't have money to eat to eat a meal, but this man just ordered a few kinds of dishes, such as kung pao chicken and boiled pork slices, and this was not a bully meal? We got angry, dragged this man to the door, asked him to squat down with his head in his hands, and then kicked him away to vent his anger. It just so happened that this man was eating. ”

Boss Wu pointed to the middle-aged man who was squatting: "He saw this scene, and after eating, he walked to the door and squatted down with his head in his hands, and shouted to settle the bill." ”

Zhao Yingdi wanted to laugh when she heard this, but she was afraid that she would hear it upstairs, so she covered her mouth with her hands and stomped on the ground with her feet.

Li Feng was mistaken, thinking that she was very cold, so he asked, "Is it cold?" Why don't you move the chair to the side of the bed and put your feet in the bed. ”

Zhao Yingdi was indeed a little cold, so she did as he said, stretched her feet into the quilt, and felt a burst of warmth. She urged him again: "What will happen later?" Li Feng continued.

Boss Wu said to him: "What's the use of beating this kind of person, if someone finishes eating every day and waits to be beaten, then my restaurant will be closed." ”

He thought that Boss Wu was right, but how to deal with this person in front of him? He said loudly, "Everyone be quiet, quiet." ”

After waiting for the people around him to calm down, he said loudly to Boss Wu: "Boss Wu, this kind of person is angry and funny. I have a few good brothers at the police station, and I will call them over now, take this man to the police station, lock him up for a few days, and then ask his family to ransom him with money, and see if he dares to eat white food in the future. ”

When the middle-aged man heard this, he hurriedly said, "I had a little stomach ache just now, but now I'm better after squatting for a while, man, how much is it?" Boss, this kind of guy quits. "After paying the money, I walked away.

Zhao Yingdi said with a smile: "This person is really powerful, when he sees an opportunity, he eats white food." If you can't eat white food, you will find the bottom of the stairs, and in the end, he is reasonable, and even the guy was scolded by him for no reason. But no matter how powerful it is, it is not as powerful as our Zhuge Kongming. By the way, do you really know the police?"

Li Feng said: "The policeman is high, how can grass people like me know him?"

Zhao Yingdi said: "Actually, the police are not a big deal, including those Vietnamese, Ah San and other foreign patrols. ”

Li Feng asked curiously, "What is Ah San?"

Zhao Yingdi smiled lightly and said, "Do you know English?"

Li Feng touched his head and said, "How can I, a countryman, know this." But I've heard people talk about what 'three grams of oil', 'brother's white', and 'less come'. ”

Zhao Yingdi was so happy that she kicked her feet in the bed, and waited for a while before saying: "In English, Mr. is called sir, and when we meet Indian patrols, we call him sir." Shanghainese English is not standard, and reading it quickly is like calling Ah San. ”

Li Feng felt interesting, and he asked: "Why is it called the Indian Ah San, not the Vietnamese Ah San?"

Zhao Yingdi said: "I don't understand this, maybe Vietnam used to belong to our country, and Indians look very different from us." Moreover, they were also occupied and ruled by the British, and like slaves, they flaunted their might when they came to our country. The people of Shanghai look down on them and scold them for being a little deflated, they are Indian Ah San. ”

The two talked very speculatively, and before they knew it, the bell upstairs rang eleven. Zhao Yingdi said: "It's eleven o'clock, but it's a pity that I have to go back to school tomorrow morning, otherwise I will talk for two more hours." ”

Li Feng smiled and said, "Let's rest, it's thirteen o'clock when we talk about two more novels." Zhao Yingdi smiled and said, "Then you are thirteen o'clock, and I am one o'clock in the morning." ”
