Chapter Twenty-Three: The Good Man Old Tang
The spring rain outside was still dripping, Li Chuanhua received his father's errand today, and took the opportunity to stay in the tea shop and not leave, seeing that it was almost time for lunch. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe three big men looked at the rainy day outside the house, and they didn't want to go out to eat, and they were just about to call to order, when the chubby smiled and pushed the door open and came in, followed by a plainly dressed man. The men discussed a few words, and finally went out to the restaurant to eat.
After eating, he returned to the tea shop, and Chubby reintroduced the friends he had brought. This person's surname is Tang, as for Tang, I didn't say anything about Tang's little fat, just called him Old Tang, and everyone didn't ask much, that person looked much older than a few of them. A head of fluffy hair was draped over his thin face, and his face was haggard, as if he had not kept up with his nutrition, but he spoke in a loud voice, which was very incommensurate with his appearance.
Old Tang was a photojournalist at first, but later he resigned from his job because of the low salary and some terms and conditions, and opened a photographic equipment store at the beginning, and occasionally submitted some manuscripts to newspapers and magazines. He graduated from the Department of Professional Photography, has a solid foundation, and his skills are slightly better than some self-taught photographers. But since joining the Animal Protection Association and opening an animal shelter, I slowly threw away the bank's belongings, and within a few years, I closed the photography shop and devoted myself to the public welfare of animal protection. No, a wild dog adopted a few days ago bit a guest who visited the shelter, although it was only a little broken, but after all, it was a stray wild dog, and injections and medicines were definitely indispensable. Yesterday, I heard that this guest likes to drink tea, and today I came to buy two catties of good tea to visit.
Wei Dong listened to Xiaopang's introduction, and was instantly in awe of the old Tang, and hurriedly prepared two catties of excellent Wuyi rock tea for him, Wuyi rock tea belongs to the oolong tea series, produced in the Wuyi Mountain area of northern Fujian, Fujian, is the best oolong tea in China, a good gift, and specially took an extremely exquisite gift box from the display cabinet to the packaging.
Old Tang was a little flattered and thanked him again and again. For a long time, based on his public welfare undertakings, he had to contact some businesses that relied on animals for profit, negotiate and communicate with them, and try to save as many lives as possible from animals, but he would inevitably suffer rejection and even abuse from these businesses. The fact that he hadn't met a friend who understood him and supported him like this for a long time made him feel very encouraged and secretly more confident in his choice.
"If you are genuinely kind to animals, your kindness deserves our respect. Wei Dong is upright and bold, and he is extremely moved by the behavior of Lao Tang who gives up his professional high income and turns to public welfare. According to his original intention, he didn't even charge the capital of tea, and it was when Lao Tang repeatedly shirked that he symbolically collected some capital.
Tian Jiu stayed aside and didn't speak, under normal circumstances, when Wei Dong received guests, he would not participate too much, only as a foil for the audience, and only echo a few words at the appropriate time, of course, unless someone specifically asked him to identify the treasures.
Old Tang's complexion is not good, perhaps due to lack of sleep and overwork, in addition to his haggard face, his eyes are also lax, his eye bags are swollen, his face is sallow, and what is worse is that Yintang is still covered with a cloud of black gas. The first time they met, Tian Jiu, according to his previous practice, would not give any warning to the other party, for fear of arousing the other party's disgust. After all, what he says is not a good thing, and those who believe are grateful to him, and those who do not believe are to blame him. But because of Old Tang's personality and his good deeds, after thinking about it, I feel that it is better to remind it slightly, so as not to feel guilty in the future.
"Old Tang, haven't you been very busy lately and haven't slept enough. Seeing that your face is not very good, you still have to pay more attention to your body. ”
Old Tang replied with a smile: "Yes, there have been a lot of things recently, two days ago I adopted a few stray dogs in the shelter, and I was busy registering them for certificates, vaccinations or something, and I was busy with the first two big." ”
Tian Jiu said euphemistically: "Your complexion doesn't look very good, don't worry about some things if you can, just do your best." As soon as these words came out, Wei Dong, Xiaopang and Li Chuanhua all turned their heads to look at him, and their faces changed slightly.
The three of them know Tian Jiu's temperament very well, and usually Tian Jiu will not warn his friends lightly, especially for friends who are not very familiar. Tian Jiu met Lao Tang for the first time today, and he actually opened his mouth to persuade him, although the words were very tactful, but Wei Dong, Xiaopang, and Li Chuanhua had already heard the meaning of these words.
Only the old Tang who didn't know the reason laughed and said: "It's okay, I'm not idle, and I will run over to persuade the neighbors to fight with cats and dogs." There's no way, it's just this stinky problem, and I can't fix it. When Old Tang said this, there was a slight self-righteous complacent in his tone.
After all, when he met Lao Tang for the first time, Tian Jiu didn't dare to say it too bluntly, for fear of arousing Lao Tang's doubts and disgust, but in view of Lao Tang's good deeds, he still couldn't help but want to persuade again: "You do public welfare, there must be a lot of people who offend, you should pay more attention to things when you go out on weekdays, don't suffer a secret loss." ”
Old Tang smiled scoldly: "In my industry, there are indeed a lot of people who have offended, but I really don't take these people seriously, the more you are afraid that they will make trouble, the more arrogant they will be." With these unscrupulous merchants, you not only have to fight bravely, but also have to fight wits, haha... ”
At this point, Tian Jiu felt that it was useless to say more, so he kept silent. Fortunately, Lao Tang only suffered some pain in his bones and bones, and did not hurt his life, which is a great luck in misfortune.
Wei Dong, Xiaopang and Li Chuanhua looked at each other, and they didn't dare to talk nonsense, and the atmosphere in the store suddenly cooled down. At this time, Wei Dong's mobile phone on the table rang, and when Wei Dong got up to answer the phone, Xiao Pang hurriedly changed the tea leaves and re-brewed them, and with the fragrance of tea, the atmosphere slowly became stronger again.
Old Tang sat for another half hour or so, and hurriedly left on the pretext that there were still a lot of things to deal with in the animal shelter.
In order to further inquire about the meaning of Tian Jiu's unspoken words just now, Xiaopang did not accompany Lao Tang to leave for some reason. As soon as the three of them waited for Lao Tang to leave, they immediately surrounded Tian Jiu, and couldn't wait to ask Tian Jiu: "Will there be any accident to Old Tang?"
Tian Jiu has been with the three of them for a while, and although he will be restrained in his usual life, he deliberately hides his ability and does not let them see some clues, but he will still be honest with them at critical times.
Tian Jiu's face was solemn: "In less than a month, Old Tang will have a bloody disaster." ”
Wei Dong, Xiao Pang, and Li Chuanhua were all taken aback when they heard Tian Jiu say this, and as they couldn't help but feel uneasy, Xiao Pang's face was full of worry, and said, "Brother Jiu, then why didn't you tell Lao Tang Ming directly just now, so that he could be a little guarded." ”
Tian Jiu stared at Xiao Pang meaningfully for a while, and said: "After all, we are not familiar with each other for the first time, do you think I told him bluntly, Old Tang, your Yin Tang is black, and there will be a bloody disaster soon, how will he feel, do you believe me or not?"
Xiaopang pondered for a moment, and felt that what Tian Jiu said was right, after all, everyone was friends who met for the first time, and if they didn't have deep friendships, how could they trust, and this kind of prediction of the future was pure nonsense in the eyes of some people, and it was unknown whether Lao Tang was one of these people.
Tian Jiu patted the back of Xiao Chubby's fat hand and comforted everyone: "It's okay, fortunately, Lao Tang is only guilty of flesh and skin, and it won't hurt his life, so you don't have to worry too much about him, good people have their own rewards." ”
Wei Dong's face was gloomy, and he muttered: "It's better to avoid injury or avoid it, it's not a good thing after all." "This man is too prone to overflowing feelings.
Tian Jiu glanced at Wei Dong and muttered to himself: "Some things are destined to happen, and no one can change them, whether it is a blessing or a curse, it is a disaster that cannot be avoided." Although Tian Jiu has abilities beyond mortals, he promised black and white impermanence, and he would never interfere with the normal operation of everything in the world.
In life, the blessing and misfortune have been decided, and it is not something that he Tian Jiu can reverse. He can't set himself on fire, let alone cause trouble for black and white impermanence, otherwise, falling into the abyss of the eighteen layers of hell will be his final destination.
