Chapter 74: Meet Lin Ran's Father

Wuyi Street, also known as Snack Street, gathers all kinds of snacks in many places, and you can smell the fragrance from afar.

Because it is a snack, the whole street is full of small stalls, at most there is a small room behind the stalls to store items.

The whole snack street is full of people coming and going, and all kinds of voices are constant.

In an international metropolis like Pearl City, where such sanitary conditions are relatively poor, it should not be allowed to store zĂ i.

But the relative geographical location of Wuyi Street is relatively remote, not on the bright side, and there are hundreds of stalls here, which solves the employment problem of many people.

If this place is banned, then the employment problem of these people will have to be solved by the government, and they will not be able to solve it, which is also an important reason why there has always been a zĂ i here.

Lin Ran's father worked in this snack street and opened a small barbecue stall that ran on his own.

When night fell, he went out to work.

Skillfully erecting the stall and taking out all kinds of tools and materials, Father Lin began the work he had been engaged in for many years.

Li Ergou, a gangster in the area around Wuyi Street, has more than a dozen younger brothers under him, and usually does some stealing chickens and dogs, and also fishes some oil and water from the stall vendors, and collects some protection fees or something.

Not long after Father Lin's stall was set up, and after selling a little bit of it, Li Ergou came.

And it wasn't alone, there were six or seven thugs behind him, and he came directly to the table prepared for the guests by Father Lin's stall and sat down.

Father Lin naturally knew that Li Ergou, usually this guy would come to his stall to eat and drink, collect some protection money or something, and bring so many people over today.

For Li Ergou, Father Lin is still a little afraid, this kind of little gangster is not something that honest people like them can afford.

Once, a small trader was dissatisfied with Li Ergou eating and drinking with him and collecting money, so he refused to give them money.

As a result, Li Ergou called a group of people to come and smashed all the stalls of that house, and injured people.

The family sued everywhere, but to no avail, and finally it was over.

Since then, no one on this snack street has dared to offend Li Ergou, and for Li Ergou's domineering, the other vendors in the snack street are also forbidden, after all, no one wants to be the unlucky one.

"Old man Lin, hurry up, give me more of your barbecue." As soon as Li Ergou sat down, he began to shout.

Father Lin had a bitter face, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only take out some of the various ingredients and roast them for them.

Most of these guys won't give money when they eat, and if they don't give money for these things, their income for several days will be in vain.

Father Lin is distressed!

But I didn't dare not grill it, and I didn't dare to grill cheap things, all of them were meat.

Otherwise, if these guys are not happy, they will beat him again, and it will be even more worth the loss.

"Several, your skewers, please use them slowly......" Father Lin carefully put some of the grilled barbecue on Li Ergou's table.

Father Lin has always been cautious about these people, lest there be any chaos that will give them a reason to blackmail themselves.

Seeing that the barbecue was delivered, Li Ergou and a group of people began to eat and drink, saying this loudly, not taking anyone around him seriously at all.

Six or seven people, eating quickly, Father Lin was in a hurry to provide them with food.

But in this hurry, people are prone to make mistakes, Father Lin mistakenly took the salt as monosodium glutamate and sprinkled it on the skewers, and these boys were almost salted to death.

"Old Lin Tou, did you do it on purpose?"

After Li Ergou ate the salty skewers, he immediately spit it out, took a big sip of beer, and then began to curse.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

Father Lin was suddenly a little at a loss, for these gangsters, Father Lin was really scared, for fear that one of them would be unhappy, so he got up and smashed the stall: "It's my fault, I'll change it for you, change it immediately." ”

Lin's father's family's livelihood depends on this barbecue stall, and if there is another problem with the stall, it will really not be able to survive.

"Old fellow, you give me some attention, if something like this happens again, your stall won't have to be set up."

Li Ergou scolded Father Lin viciously, and began to eat and drink again.

Father Lin lamented in his heart, they who live at the bottom of society are so sad!

The other vendors around looked at Father Lin sympathetically, but they couldn't do anything.

They are the same, they are always on guard against Li Ergou, they usually can't dodge, how can they take the initiative to get up.

……

Hong Xiao didn't expect that Lin Ran would take him to Wuyi Street, which is a famous snack street, and Hong Xiao naturally knew about it.

It's just that before he went abroad, the living conditions at home were poor, and he couldn't eat well in serious food, so where did he have the money to come here to eat snacks, so speaking of which, Hong Xiao had never been here.

"You're going to treat me to something here?" After getting out of the car, Hong Xiao asked Lin Ran beside him.

"What? Don't you think it's good here? Then let's go somewhere else. Lin Ran thought that Master Hong Xiao was from a background, so he couldn't look down on the snacks here. When he said this, Lin Ran's tone was obviously a little displeased.

"I didn't mean that, my family used to be poor, and I couldn't afford to eat snacks here, so I've never been here, and I'm here to try it today." Hong Xiao explained.

It was the first time Lin Ran heard the topic of their family in Hong Xiao's mouth, and he couldn't help but be stunned, why didn't he expect that Hong Xiao's family was actually poor before? This was unexpected.

It seems that my understanding of him is still very limited!

Soon, Lin Ran took Hong Xiao to his barbecue booth.

"Xiao Ran, why are you here? Who is this? ”

Father Lin was busy, and when he looked up, he saw his daughter coming, and he was still with a boy, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

"Dad, this is my classmate, I did me a favor, I'm going to invite him to dinner." Lin Ran explained.

"Hello, uncle, I'm Hong Xiao, Lin Ran's classmate." It turned out that Lin Ran wanted to invite herself to eat her barbecue, which was really saving money.

"Hello hello, sit down." Father Lin hurriedly beckoned the two to sit down.

"No need, uncle, you are busy first, I'm not in a hurry."

Hong Xiao saw that Father Lin's business was good, so naturally he couldn't sit down and eat at this time.

Father Lin smiled, and his impression of Hong Xiao was not bad.

Don't look at Father Lin didn't say anything, but he had a lot of things in his heart.

When did your daughter invite her classmates to dinner? And he is also a male classmate, and he also brought it to his stall, and the relationship between the two is definitely not ordinary.

Father Lin does not object to his daughter talking about friends, but the object of talking about friends must be satisfactory to himself.

The guy in front of him is still good.

Hong Xiao is handsome, and the clothes on his body are not bad, and the conditions at home should be very good. What's more, Hong Xiao speaks very politely, and at first glance he is a well-bred child, and his family should be good.

In this era, children talk about friends, and the family factor is still very important.

"Hong Xiao, you sit down for a while, and I'll help my father." Lin Ran skillfully helped his father with this and that.

Hong Xiao found an empty place and sat down, looked around, and noticed Li Ergou's group, frowning slightly.

The guys shouted loudly and unscrupulously, obviously affecting the people around them, but no one dared to say anything.

Soon, Li Ergou, who was drinking, saw Lin Ran, and his eyes lit up.

As a schoolflower-level figure of Pearl University, Lin Ran's appearance naturally goes without saying, when did a guy like Li Ergou see such a beautiful and innocent girl, and he suddenly became interested.

Li Ergou walked to Father Lin's stall and said with a smile: "I said Old Lintou, who is this beauty?" ”

Father Lin didn't expect Li Ergou to see Lin Ran, he was shocked, and said with a smile: "This is my daughter, come and help." ”

Li Ergou looked at Lin Ran with a lewd smile and said, "Oh, I didn't expect Lao Lin Tou to have such a beautiful daughter." Beauty, what's your name? Meet me, my name is Li Ergou, and you can call me Brother Dog. ”

Lin Ran naturally didn't mince words about this kind of gangster, and didn't pay attention to him at all.

Li Ergou was not angry, but said with a smile: "The little sister is quite characteristic, I like it." ”

Father Lin looked at Li Ergou teasing his daughter, and was angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to express it, so he could only say helplessly: "Brother Ergou, my daughter is still in school, don't bother her, it's a big deal, I don't want money for you to eat in the future." ”

"How can that work? Brother dog, am I the one who doesn't pay for eating? Li Ergou waved his hand and said: "Even if you don't give money for eating other people's, you have to give money for eating yours, otherwise Sister Lin will be angry!" ”

Lin Ran looked at Li Ergou with a look of disgust, this guy is really shameless, he is too much worse than Hong Xiao!

Somehow, Lin Ran subconsciously compared Li Ergou with Hong Xiao.

There is no comparison between the two of them!

"You rascal, stay away from me." Lin Ran scolded Li Ergou.

"Hey, Lao Lintou, your daughter has a lot of personality, but she has such a personality, don't you want to continue working in this stall."

Father Lin's heart sank suddenly, this Li Ergou was forcing him!

Father Lin can't let his daughter have anything to do with such a hooligan no matter what, but if he doesn't obey Li Ergou's wishes, he doesn't want this stall.

People like Li Ergou are not something that their own family can provoke, and talking by themselves is basically useless!

For a while, Father Lin's heart was full of sorrow.

Over the years, Father Lin has seen too much human affection, in this society, there is no money, and it is difficult to move an inch! Seeing that his father was forced to speak by a gangster, Lin Ran lowered his head and was silent, very aggrieved. She wanted to drive Li Ergou away, but she couldn't, what could she do, these little gangsters were the most annoying.

Lin Ran knew that her appearance was attractive to men, so she never wore makeup or dressed up, and she lived in school in a simple way.

On the one hand, it was because of the difficulties in family life, and on the other hand, it was because Lin Ran didn't want to show off.

His family conditions are poor, and if there is really any big evil that he looks down on himself and wants to use special methods to play with himself, he can't get rid of it at all.

Lin Ran has seen too many such things, there are vivid examples around him, how many classmates have been favored by the eldest young master and eldest son because of their good looks, they thought they could reach the sky in one step, but the reality is extremely cruel.

It's often the case that you've had enough of playing and then kick to the side, and end up getting nothing.

and today's incident, if there is no Hong Xiao, he was kidnapped by Jin Zicheng's guy, and most of the time it will not end well.

"What? Speak, old Lin Tou, let your daughter be friends with me, I promise, no one will dare to touch you on this street in the future, and everyone will come to take care of your business. Li Ergou made a further threat.

Father Lin was furious, this Li Ergou was really deceitful!

If he really wants to be unfavorable to his daughter, even if Father Lin fights for his life, he will beat Li Ergou away.

At this moment, Hong Xiao's voice rang out: "Li Ergou, your name is rubbish, and people are also rubbish!" ”
