After coming out of the hospital, Xu Dong took a taxi back to Niu Ge's pawn shop, Niu Xiangdong didn't show up all day, but in the evening, the pretty and gloomy Mu Siqing appeared!

"Xu Dong, hello, you disappeared after I made a phone call, and left me alone in Sangjia Village, but you ran back!" Mu Siqing snorted and said, "You can be regarded as releasing my pigeons, right?" ”

Xu Dong was stunned for a moment, then remembered Mu Siqing's matter, couldn't help but smile awkwardly, and hurriedly "greeted": "Come on, come, I'll make you tea, Uncle Niu's Longjing, good tea......"

Mu Siqing sat down angrily, let Xu Dong make tea and watch "courteous", and after the tea was brewed and placed in front of her, she took it up and took a sip gently, and said: "In the future, you have to change your work attitude, be decent, and if you do this again, I will handcuff you!" ”

Xu Dong knew that Mu Siqing was just a "strong stubble", fierce on the outside and soft on the inside, and his words were scary, but he was still very "cooperative" and pretended to be scared and said: "Okay, okay, don't dare to do it in the future, and it won't be like this again in the future!" ”

Mu Siqing saw that Xu Dong confessed, and his face softened, so he asked him, "Why did you suddenly run back?" ”

Xu Dong smiled and said, "That...... That I have a stomachache and want to have diarrhea, and I am not familiar with that side, I can't pull it in my pants, especially in front of a beautiful girl like you, how faceless, so I took a taxi back to the store! ”

"Skee...... The devil believes in you! Hearing Xu Dong say "dirty", Mu Siqing naturally felt that he was talking nonsense, but he was embarrassed to ask again, and he wanted to chase again, but I was afraid that he would say something more "unbearable"!

Mu Siqing is not a person who likes to "taste tea", but the cup of "Longjing" brewed by Xu Dong is indeed fragrant and delicious, and after drinking, he pushed the cup and said, "Pour another cup!" ”

After a few more sips of tea, Mu Siqing glanced at Xu Dong and said, "Come with me to Sangjia Village early tomorrow, since they are digging treasures, then they have to bring you, an expert, I warn you, don't let me play anymore and disappear!" ”

Xu Dong spread his hands and said in embarrassment: "No, Officer Mu, I opened the store, Uncle Niu handed over the store to me to take care of, I can't keep closing the door of the store and going out with you to work blindly, you are doing that, no matter how busy you are, you will get a salary, if I don't work, will I drink the northwest wind?" ”

Mu Siqing was stunned, she wanted to be annoyed but couldn't say a reason, no matter how willful she was, no matter how tough she was, she really couldn't force people, and it really didn't make sense to force people!

Xu Dong looked at Mu Siqing in a daze, and hurriedly said: "I don't just refuse completely, I will definitely help if you have any important cases, and I will have to find free time for the rest of the time, anyway, I will try to find time as much as possible!" ”

Listening to Xu Dong's "tactful" words, Mu Siqing felt better, and then asked Xu Dong: "Where is the mobile phone I gave you?" It's because I can't find you that I sent you a mobile phone, who would have thought that this mobile phone couldn't get through 24 hours a day, what the hell are you doing? When primitive man? ”

Xu Dong became embarrassed again: "You lost my mobile phone, but ...... I bought a new mobile phone myself, and you call this number, it's my new number! ”

Mu Siqing took out her mobile phone and said while remembering: "Yo, I got the rich man's number right away after I made it, Niu ......."

Xu Dong smiled, and didn't explain to her, the more he told her, the darker it became!

Fortunately, Mu Siqing did not have too much "entanglement", and after drinking tea, he "left in a huff".

Xu Dong saw that it was almost dusk, he was a little hungry, called for a takeout, and after eating, he cleaned the store again, there were no customers at night, and he closed the store at eight o'clock, and then went out for a walk.

The shop that does pawns or antiques basically has no business at night, Xu Dong has guarded the shop, knowing what time the business of this line is busy, and it is very idle at night, Niu Xiangdong doesn't know what to do during this time, and he doesn't show his face when he throws the shop to him.

And even if Niu Xiangdong said that he bought more than one million shares, Niu Xiangdong didn't mention the matter of giving him the money after he agreed, and it seemed that more than one million was not money!

The nightlife of Tongcheng is very "rich", after night, the lights are red and willow green, a group of purple and red, showing wealth and prosperity, Xu Dong enjoys the night view of Tongcheng while strolling, even if he is a native of Tongcheng, but it seems that until now, he has discovered and felt the "richness" of Tongcheng life.

I didn't feel the consumption of time when I walked all the way, and I inadvertently took out my mobile phone to take a look, and it was almost ten o'clock!

How did you come this way? Xu Dong was stunned, looked up at the street scene, and suddenly was stunned again!

This is actually the place where he once lived for a long time, his original home and his uncle and aunt's residence are in the same area, this strolling and wandering did not expect to subconsciously return to the "former home".

Although his uncle and aunt are hateful and annoying, he misses his deceased parents even more, and after suffering so much, he misses his parents' "love" even more.

Standing on the side of the road, he was stunned, and he was about to turn around and return for a long time, but under the street lamp in front of him, a rickety figure made him pay attention.

The figure bent down to pick up the mineral water bottle discarded by passers-by, holding a "bloated" snakeskin bag in one hand, Xu Dong felt that the figure was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was, and when the person looked up, he suddenly woke up: This person was actually his uncle Zhou Tianqi!

Xu Dong was a little stunned, Zhou Tianqi had gray hair, a rickety figure, and a difference of 108,000 miles from his previous image, as if he was twenty years old, with a sad face and vicissitudes, he didn't find Xu Dong not far away, his eyes were completely searching on the road, and the mineral water bottles and Coke cans discarded by passers-by were the "treasures" he wanted!

Zhou Tianqi dragged the huge bloated snakeskin bag with one hand, while looking down to search for the discarded objects on the ground, Xu Dong wanted to turn back, but after thinking about it, he followed him from a distance.

Zhou Tianqi didn't care if there was anyone next to him, he only paid attention to searching for "valuable" mineral water bottles and cola cans, and after walking for a while, a pair of young men and women came over with a smile, both of them each holding a can of Wang Laoji in their hands, and the man Yangtian drank it clean and threw the jar away.

Zhou Tianqi hurriedly ran after the empty jar that was rolling on the ground, and after picking it up in his hand, he put it into the snakeskin bag like picking up a "treasure", but he didn't leave, but stared at the woman among the young men and women, dragging the snakeskin bag behind her.

The woman looked back at her, frowned and covered her mouth and nose and asked, "What are you doing?" ”

Presumably Zhou Tianqi had a great "taste", and the woman was very unhappy.

Zhou Tianqi smiled and said, "I...... I want your Coke can, you don't want it anyway when you're done drinking it......"

"Stinks, don't follow me!" The woman raised her eyebrows and looked angry, her expression disgusted to the extreme.

The man was unhappy when he saw his girlfriend, he was originally a ruffian with oily hair and powder, and when he was young and vigorous, he rushed forward and kicked Zhou Tianqi twice, kicked him to the ground, and scolded while kicking: "Old dog, get away from Lao Tzu, otherwise be careful that Lao Tzu will kill you!" ”

Zhou Tianqi snorted, got up and didn't dare to follow the woman anymore, but the woman seemed to be in a ruined mood, and snorted and threw Wang Laoji, who had not finished drinking, into the ditch outside the roadside.

Zhou Tianqi shouted "Ahh

"Bad luck!" The woman was annoyed again, and walked away arm in arm with the man, and she was also very satisfied with her boyfriend's appearance.

Zhou Tianqi beat the man so that his nose was blue and his face was swollen, but at this moment, he didn't care about the pain in his body at all, staring at the ditch in a daze, that Wang Laoji jar was in the ditch, but the ditch was two or three meters deep, he couldn't go down, even if he thought about it, he was afraid that it would not be easy to climb up!

Xu Dong saw that his uncle, who was coaxing and "tall" in the past, now fell into such a field, and the "hatred" that originally came out of him was gone, and what came to his heart instead was an indescribable unspeakable feeling!

Unable to get the Wang Laoji jar, Zhou Tianqi sighed, looking left and right and couldn't find the tools, and it took a long time to reluctantly carry the snakeskin bag and leave.

Xu Dong saw that he was carrying a snakeskin bag in one hand, covering his waist with the other, and he was also limping when he walked, obviously the young man just kicked him in the waist a few times.

Further on, he was already out of the city, and at the entrance of an old urban village along the outskirts, Zhou Tianqi entered along a small and dark alley.

Xu Dong hesitated for a moment, but still followed in.

There was a strong smell of dampness, mold and garbage in the alley, and he watched Zhou Tianqi's bloated figure move slowly from a distance, and after turning a corner, he stopped in front of a row of old brick houses with only one floor.

Zhou Tianqi pushed open the courtyard door and went in, put down the snakeskin bag, then poured it out and stepped on it, and then packed it up and put it in another bag, which was very bulging, and it was estimated that it contained a lot of cans.

Xu Dong stood behind the courtyard gate and looked inside, and after Zhou Tianqi cleaned up the snakeskin bag, he pushed open the dilapidated wooden door and entered the house, and said as he entered: "Old woman, do you have anything to eat?" Hungry...... But today's harvest is not small, there are 224 mineral water bottles, there are 117 cans, mineral water bottles are 5 cents, cans are 2 cents, a total of 57 yuan, 57 yuan, set my record these days......"

Xu Dong looked inside the courtyard, there were a lot of "garbage" piled up in the courtyard, and the lights in the house were extremely dim, estimated to be a five-watt energy-saving light bulb.

Then Huang Shuyu's voice came: "I only have leftovers, I'll ...... I'll give you a hot ......"

After hearing the sound of the spatula, Huang Shuyu said again: "Old Zhou, Zhou Lin is sick and still not getting better, and I don't have the money to go to the doctor, what should I do?" ”

Zhou Tianqi was silent for a while, and then said, "This girl can't stand the blow, alas...... Also, we have no face when we are old, she is young, she has not even married, and she fell into this kind of field all of a sudden, how can that face be hanged? ”

Huang Shuyu sighed, and said for a long time: "Lao Zhou, the usury bag is about to force us to death, you and I can only pick up garbage to make a living, but even if you pick up more every day, it is not enough interest, and it is a luxury to be able to keep food and clothing, alas, how do you say we should live this day......
