In the next few days, in addition to drinking with Erlong and others, Yang Yi inspected the work of the security department in the school, the school had already been on vacation, and even the teachers and students who lived in the school had gone home, so it can be said that there was no one else except for the teachers and their families who lived for a long time and the security guards who worked.

Unlike other places, the security work of Yinan Middle School does not arrange any holiday rest in addition to the usual shifts, but in terms of salary, there will be an additional subsidy for overtime duty, so the security department does not have many opinions on winter vacation duty.

There are still a few days to celebrate the New Year, and Yang Yi is particularly distressed these days, and promised the old man at home to bring his girlfriend back when he left last time. Originally, it was Jojo who had booked it earlier, but now it is obviously no longer feasible, so he can only choose someone else. If you go back alone, the consequences are unimaginable.

"But at the end of the New Year, who doesn't eat the New Year's dinner at home?" Yang Yi really can't find a suitable candidate, Liu Xuejia may be willing to help, but her words and deeds with serious habits in the rivers and lakes may make the old man particularly disgusted, Chu Lixue can give it a try, but I don't know if she has time, although Zhao Ningyu has a good relationship with herself, but I don't know if she will help with this kind of help. After thinking about it, I always felt that something was wrong, and I really didn't know who to call when I took the phone, which made him head two bigger, and finally decided to call Chu Lixue first, but it was really not good, so I asked Sini to help me form a girlfriend on the Internet, which was better than going home alone and being punished for kneeling in the ancestral ancestral hall.

"Hey! Ah Xue? I'm Yang Yi. After the phone was dialed, Yang Yi said in the most gentle and kind voice: "It's about to be the New Year, I wish you a happy New Year and all the best in advance here!" ”

"Nothing to do, either a traitor or a thief!" Chu Lixue's voice was still a little lazy, obviously she hadn't woken up yet, and her lazy voice came from the microphone to Yang Yi's ears: "Say it!" Can I help with anything? ”

Yang Yizheng said: "Everyone is a friend, is it wrong for me to wish you a happy New Year?" Friends should help each other, right? ”

"Get into the subject, or I'll hang up!" Chu Lixue was too lazy to listen to Yang Yi's nonsense: "Do you know how big a crime it is to disturb a beautiful woman to sleep?" ”

Yang Yi hurriedly said when he heard this: "Of course I have something to ask you for help!" Do you remember the last time I told you about it? The old man at home is urging me to do me a favor, I have to bring a girlfriend back for the New Year, can you help me with this? Of course, I will always remember your benefits, and all the benefits such as the red envelope and New Year's money I received will belong to you! ”

"Got it!" Chu Lixue said angrily: "Just notify me when the time comes!" After speaking, he hung up the phone directly, and Yang Yi sat on the bed stupidly on the rest of the phone.

"She said yes so quickly?" I didn't expect this matter to be so easy to deal with, I originally thought that according to Chu Lixue's character, he would definitely take the opportunity to blackmail and blackmail himself, but he didn't expect the other party's reaction to be like this, which made him a little confused.

"Anyway, it's done!" Regardless of why Chu Lixue agreed so readily, but since she had already agreed, she naturally would not miss the appointment, and Yang Yi also let go of a matter of concern. Turning his head to look at the clock hanging crookedly under the wall, he found that it was not yet ten o'clock, so he simply went back to bed and went to sleep.

……

Taohua Village is less than ten kilometers away from Taohua Town, and it was originally under the jurisdiction of Taohua Town, but due to the inconvenient transportation, the economy has not been very prosperous.

The villagers in the village have long been accustomed to getting up early and going to bed early, and they will take a car or walk to Taohua Town to catch the market and buy some daily necessities every 369th.

Old man Qi was one of the villagers, and as usual, he came to the town early, ready to buy a birthday cake to go home, because today was his son Qi Fei's tenth birthday.

Old man Qi is fifty years old this year, which can be regarded as a middle-aged child, so although the economic conditions of the family are quite poor, he has never treated his children badly, and sometimes he would rather starve himself than suffer a little bit of hardship. The child's mother died of illness after giving birth to Qi Fei, leaving the two of them to depend on each other, but the most gratifying thing for the old man Qi is that Qi Fei's academic performance has always been the best in the village.

After spending two hours back and forth, Old Man Qi finally returned to the village. He was not used to riding in a car, and the short drive made him feel a little groggy.

Carrying the customized cake, the old man Qi walked happily on the 3.5-meter-wide cement road that had just been built in the village, but he didn't expect a few tall strong men to come face to face, knocking off the cake of the old man Qi at the staggered time, and falling to the ground into a pile of deformed cream.

"You...... You wait! Old man Qi was a little anxious, the cake he bought for two hundred yuan was now turned into a cream puree, of course he wouldn't just forget it, he hurriedly caught up with a few strong men, blocked the other party's way, and stammered: "You guys...... You just knocked my cake off! This is my son's birthday present! You guys...... You're going to pay me! ”

The strong man who walked in the front and led the way was sturdy, with a scar on his face, and only wore a thin plaid shirt in winter, although it looked a little nondescript, but it was enough to show that his physical fitness was quite good, definitely surpassing ordinary people.

"Isn't this Old Man Qi? Actually have the money to buy cakes? After the strong man looked the old man Qi up and down, he kicked the cake into the field next to him by the way, and said coldly: "Isn't it just a broken cake?" If you like, go down and pick it up! ”

"Xu Lei! You've gone too far! Old man Qi wanted to cry without tears, the conditions at home were quite poor, this cake was bought by him after buying part of the grain, and now it was so ruined, which made him anxious and angry, and immediately reached out and grabbed the other party's clothes, asking the other party to compensate himself.

Zhang Lei monopolized the pork trade in the village, and he was also regarded as the top bully in the village, so he would not put Old Man Qi in his eyes at all, and when he heard this, he smiled coldly, pushed Old Man Qi away with his backhand, and shouted: "Get away!" Your cake stained Lao Tzu's leather shoes, and Lao Tzu hasn't asked you to compensate yet! Do you know how expensive Lao Tzu's leather shoes are? ”

Old man Qi was thin and dry, how could he be the opponent of the strong Zhang Lei, he staggered back several steps after being pushed at will, and finally sat on the cake stain on the ground before, unable to stand up for a long time.

Zhang Lei was still angry, stepped forward and kicked the old man Qi's lower abdomen, kicked him to the ground and slid three or four meters, and snorted: "you eggs!" How far away is death, how far away! After saying that, he walked away with a few other strong men who laughed without looking back.

After a while, a few other villagers passed by, and when they saw Old Man Qi lying unconscious, they helped carry him home. There is no hospital in the village, the only one is a small clinic, but these villagers are not willing to help them pay for the medical bills.

Old man Qi's home is in the deepest part of the village near the edge of the woods, due to economic conditions, it is not like other villages have built cement houses, but still live in the previous loess thatched house, not cool in summer, not warm in winter, leaking rain on rainy days, and shading on sunny days, which can be described as a dog kennel.

Ten-year-old Qi Fei was still waiting for Old Man Qi's birthday present at home, but found that his father was carried back, and after thanking him, he threw himself beside his father and shook his father desperately.

After shaking for a long time, Old Man Qi opened his eyes, looked at his son, and smiled reluctantly: "Child, I'm sorry, the cake I bought for you was lost on the road!" Daddy will buy it for you later! "Breath was short of breath between words, and after a few coughs, blood spilled from the corners of his mouth.

Qi Fei was frightened when he saw this, and hurriedly went to bring a bowl of water. But no matter how hard he supported his father, Old Man Qi still couldn't get out of bed, but his breath became weaker and weaker, and his face became more and more pale.

"Kid, I know you have good grades and are obedient." Old man Qi took a few breaths desperately, his face became a little sickly crimson, and he smiled reluctantly: "But I may not be able to accompany you." ”

Although Qi Fei was only ten years old, he knew very well what he and his father were going to face, wiped his tears and gritted his teeth and said, "Dad, how did you get hurt like this?" ”

Old man Qi smiled bitterly: "Who else will beat me like this?" Isn't it Zhang Lei, the pig killer in the village? Remember! Don't go to him, you're still young and not his opponent at all! As he spoke, he trembled and took out a wrapped handkerchief from under the pillow under his head, opened it to reveal a few dragon coins of ten yuan and five yuan, gritted his teeth and said, "You take these money, leave this village quickly!" ”

Qi Fei stretched out his hand to take the small amount of dozens of yuan, and finally couldn't help crying: "That...... So where should I go? ”

The crimson on Old Man Qi's face gradually disappeared, and was replaced by the ash that represented death, and he reluctantly said, "It's still ...... Remember the guy I usually mentioned to you? Go find him! Tell him what's going on here! In the future, you will recognize him as a godfather! As he spoke, he seemed to remember something from before, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Is the one you are talking about the same person named Yang Yi?" Qi Fei wiped away his tears and clenched his hands into fists: "Where is he now?" ”

"I heard he's in Yinan now." Old man Qi put away his smile, blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth again, and he said angrily: "Remember! Only by finding him can my affairs be solved, and your future life and study problems can also be solved. In addition, you must listen to him well, and you must be an upright person in the future! ”

Qi Fei nodded solemnly, with a resolute glint in his eyes, and nodded: "I remember!" I will definitely live up to your expectations! ”

Old Man Qi nodded with satisfaction, his eyes looked upward, and gradually began to dissipate, his expression gradually became stiff, and his breathing finally stopped. At this moment, a thunderous sound sounded in the sky, and the continuous raindrops fell on the thatched roof, making a subtle rustling sound, as if bidding farewell to Old Man Qi.

Qi Fei sat on the edge of the bed in a daze, like a puppet whose soul had been removed, and only after a long time did he slowly get up, knelt in front of the window and kowtowed heavily to Old Man Qi's corpse a few times, and then got up and left without looking back.

The only thing in his mind now is what Old Man Qi said before he died, that is, go to Yinan to find Yang Yi.
