Chapter 365: Halfway Brother 2
The weather this afternoon was surprisingly good, perhaps because it was already autumn, and the wind didn't have that kind of heat, but I was scolded by Yang Qu for being shameless, she said that I shouldn't have picked her up on a motorcycle, and she felt that I was a complete scumbag in front of her.
I stood up again on the motorcycle that I had pushed in my hand, and then said to her very seriously: "Yang Qu, listen to me...... There are a lot of people in this world who are good to you, I admit this, but I must tell you a fact, those who are desperately good to you are not necessarily to turn you into a little princess who is loved by everyone, but also may turn you into a stupid donkey who lacks hands-on and thinking skills. β
Yang Qu looked at me with a red face, of course she was not shy, but really angry, she pointed at me and said: "Jiang Qiao, you don't look down on people, I will say it in front, before you prove that I am a stupid donkey, I must first prove that you are a big stupid donkey!" β
I don't think I can talk to her dialectically about who is a stupid donkey, because no matter who is stupid in the end, it is Yang Jin's genetics that is ridiculed, so there is no winner in this battle of words.
I pointed to the motorcycle and said to Yang Qu: "Just this car, you want to sit and sit, if you don't want to do it, there is a taxi 50 meters away from Shanghai, Shanghai is big, you can enjoy the fun of the city, and then find yourself a place to live." β
Yang Qu's expression looked as if a terrifying force was brewing, but after a puff of smoke, she was instigated and said to me: "Please don't squeeze me, I can't ride your broken motorcycle!" β
I got on the motorbike and said to her, "Come up." β
She puffed out her cheeks and glanced at me, and said with a sad face: "Mom, this style of painting is not at all what I thought, even if there is no president-level treatment, at least a platinum-level treatment......
The more she talked, the more aggrieved she became, she raised her leg and kicked the wheel, and said: What a broken car, the wheels are shaking and shaking, the wheels won't fall off, and there is also airplane mode, right? Saying that, he comforted himself again: "If there is really a flight mode, it is not bad, and the treatment has directly gone up several grades." β
I looked at her with a very strange eye, not because I was annoyed by her, but because I felt that there was something similar about us, and we both liked to think like this, not for others, nor for ourselves, it was a habit.
After leaving the airport, I asked Yang Qu to carry her suitcase on her shoulder, and she kept calling, "Brother...... Brother, this box is too heavy, can you stop the car and let me change to the other side. β
I stopped the car and moved the box to the other side for her, and after a while she screamed again, and this was repeated about a dozen times, and I finally took her to the neighborhood where I lived, and was going to invite her down to the restaurant for a bowl of noodles.
She felt that I was insulting her, stood outside the noodle restaurant, and said to me: "Hey, you don't need to be so stingy, it's my first time in Shanghai, should you invite me to eat Shanghainese food, I don't have any extravagant expectations for you, just an ordinary restaurant...... But I really don't want to eat noodles. β
"You want to eat Shanghainese food, huh? Okay, then you invite me. β
She stared at me for a long time, then took her purse out of her pocket and flipped it open to show me...... In addition to a few cards, there are about 20 yuan in cash.
I felt incredulous and asked, "If you come to Shanghai, your mother won't give you a penny?" β
"I gave 3,000 yuan, but I just saw a pair of slippers at the airport that were not bad, so I bought them cheaply, and then drank a cup of coffee, and there was so much left!"
"Yes, you deserve instant noodles."
I said this, but in my heart I wanted to send her to the migrant workers who imprisoned Yao Yu and Liu Liu last time, so that she could know what a powerful and terrifying weapon instant noodles are. I was born poor, and I really can't accept this kind of loser behavior, although her family is very rich, and Yang Jin also dotes on her.
She immediately hit a rake: "It's not your fault, I want you to pick me up at the airport early, so I won't run to the store to buy things because I'm bored...... So, you have to take care of my food and shelter. β
I didn't talk nonsense with her, I took out my wallet from my pocket, and then took out all the hundreds of dollars from it and said to her: "I don't know where you got all that information, so you mistakenly think that I am very good...... In fact, as you can see now, I borrowed the place where I live with a friend, and I only have these few hundred dollars left in my body...... No matter who you are or what kind of approximation you can get with me, I can't take care of you...... By the way, I still owe 4 million in foreign debt. Hear clearly, it's a full four million, is it enough? β
She finally looked at me in disbelief, and then sighed, "No! Sister Jin Qiu said that you may have done it, and you are very down-to-earth. How can a down-to-earth person owe so much foreign debt! β
"Do you still know Jin Qiu?"
She hurriedly covered her mouth, stared at me with wide eyes, shook her other hand and replied, "Please, you didn't say it to me!" β
I'm not interested in such a false thing, so I don't bother to pursue it, but what I know for sure is that I will never take this girl in, because I shouldn't have taken her in because it doesn't matter why I should take her in. Moreover, I believe that she has the ability to ask Yang Jin for another considerable amount of living expenses, and Yang Jin will not let her go.
I said to her again, "I don't care what you think of me...... After eating the noodles later, you will find your own way out...... Because of the difference between men and women, I really can't live with you there, just a room. β
She replied with an unyielding look: "Is there any difference between men and women between brothers and sisters, it's a big deal that you live in the living room." β
I ignored her, and it just so happened that at this time, the shopkeeper also brought the two bowls of noodles I had just ordered to us in front of us, and I looked at the sunset that was about to set, so I ate it myself. In the process, I bought a watermelon that was a little bigger than a fist from a passing vendor and gave it to her, so that even the fruit after the meal was ready, so I was worthy of her.
And she looked at me pitifully while eating the noodles that she thought were tasteless. But I always feel that she is thinking of countermeasures, and in my eyes, this sister is definitely not a good stubble...... It's like someone once said to me that the more beautiful a woman is, the more cunning she is. She should be in the particularly cunning category!
After eating, I settled the bill, and left her to walk out into the neighborhood alone, and when she found out that I was leaving, she didn't bother to wipe her mouth, and dragged her suitcase that could only hold people and followed me closely. In the end, he was stopped outside the door of the elevator because he didn't have an access card.
She stomped her feet angrily and scolded me, scolding me for not being human, but today as long as she can retreat from the difficulties and not pester me, I can not be a man, I firmly believe that I have no obligation to her, let alone responsibility, and she is already an adult who can take responsibility for her own actions, so she will have a way.
β¦β¦
Back in the house, I poured myself a glass of cold water, drank it again, and sat on the couch gasping for breath. I don't know why I'm worried about her, she's really my sister by blood, and she's beautiful. The so-called beauty is not a good thing in this busy big city, and it will multiply her risk factor......
I forced myself not to think about it, but after thinking more, I finally couldn't help it, and stood at the window and looked downstairs......
I thought she was going to go, but instead she was sitting next to a drinking machine, playing with her phone, and she was surrounded by people who paid a dollar for water, which made her look like an anomaly, somewhat pitiful.
At this time, I received a WeChat message from her on my mobile phone: "Brother, you really don't care about me anymore?" β¦β¦ My phone is running out of battery, if you still have a little sympathy, please think about my situation for a moment...... I was really about to cry, I didn't lie to you. β
After reading this message, I subconsciously looked downstairs again, and she looked around a little anxiously, as if waiting for me to go down to pick her up.
I closed the curtains, I didn't want to pay attention to her bitter tricks, in my heart, I really can't identify with this sister who suddenly appeared, her appearance will always remind me of the days when I lived alone after Yang Jin left, and she enjoyed all Yang Jin's love.
It's not that I'm jealous of her, I just think that fate is too unfair, we are all Yang Jin's children, but we live worlds apart. In my consciousness, she shouldn't have appeared, and I don't know who was talking enough to let us know about each other's existence.
I lit a cigarette with some anxiety, and then closed my eyes to try to calm myself down, but some of the images came uninvited, and my conscience was a little tormented.
Outside the window, I don't know when a cold wind blew, and then it rained lightly, this is the weather in early autumn, some impermanence, some people feel depressed and lonely.
I snuffed out the cigarette in my hand and got up from the couch, then sat down and stood up again...... I picked up my phone and looked at the WeChat she had just sent, and after a moment of distraction, my heart became even more anxious.
I'm afraid that she will be like me, and she will lose her temper and be stubborn to the end, not knowing how to be flexible.
For her, I also have a little doubt, why she doesn't reject me at all, although we are brother and sister, but the relationship between them is also sensitive. Because her father's name is Yang Zonghuai, and my father's name is Jiang Jiyou, this is an insurmountable barrier.
β¦β¦
With a sigh, I finally found an umbrella from the cabinet and went downstairs to the sound of rain...... And she's gone.
I smiled inwardly and didn't rush upstairs, just stood at the edge of the hallway and lit a cigarette. Yes, I'm a person who feels lonely easily, and I can't stand those psychedelic lights falling into the stagnant water that has just formed.
A moment later, I saw Yang Qu in the stagnant water, wet from the rain, with a hamburger in one hand and a box of cigarettes in the other. She smiled at me and said, "I knew you wouldn't leave me alone...... Well, the burger is mine, the cigarette is yours...... Am I okay with you? β
I squinted and took a puff of cigarette, but I didn't take the box of red Nanjing cigarettes that I had always liked to smoke from her, I just tilted my head and looked at the corridor, and then said to her: "Go up, make you a bowl of ginger tea, don't catch a cold." β
Yang Qu looked at me and smiled, then walked towards the elevator before me...... Instead, I stared at the Hermès bag she was carrying, wondering where there were shops around the neighborhood that recycled luxury goods.
I estimated that the bag could sell for 20,000 yuan even if it was sold second-hand...... I didn't mean anything else, I just wanted to secretly take this bag and sell it while she was sleeping...... Since she has no experience in living in adversity, it is my duty to teach her that it is more reliable to take the money from the sale of the bag than to take refuge in me, the halfway brother!
