Ye Feng waited for a long time at the construction site at the bottom of the bridge across the water bridge, and did not wait for the other workers to come back, and the young man who stayed behind before had never left the shed, seeing that it was about to be twelve o'clock at noon, and he had to go to the training base at two o'clock in the afternoon.

At this time, the reason why Ye Feng was still waiting here was not for the request of the army or the work of the unit, he wanted to find the real reason for their long-term stay here from these migrant workers who had similar experiences to himself.

Although it is autumn, but today's sun is a bit poisonous, and it is not a way to wait here all the time, Ye Feng plans to find a small restaurant nearby, and come over to have a look after lunch.

Ye Feng came to the construction site, near the bridge across the water, found a small restaurant, although the restaurant is small, but the furnishings are complete, but a little unclean, there is a TV on the front desk in the middle of the restaurant, is using the old-fashioned DVD to play the video, the sound is very loud, on the one hand, it is to make the restaurant eat to make the picture lively, on the other hand, it is also to attract more customers.

Ye Feng took a look, he had watched the video on TV, an old Hong Kong film, "Magic High and Tall" starring the third-level emperor Cao Charlie, it was very exciting and exciting, although some guests finished eating, but because they enjoyed watching the film, they simply asked for two more bottles of beer and drank it while watching.

Of course, Ye Feng didn't want to watch TV, so he chose a secluded place to sit down, asked the boss to come over and order two dishes casually, and asked for a bottle of beer. drank to herself, and suddenly remembered Lin Qingyin, who didn't know where she went, and remembered the passionate night with herself before she left, and her mood suddenly became low and lonely.

At this time, suddenly there was a lot of noise, and six or seven people walked in noisily, Ye Feng glanced up, and saw that these people were rustic, sloppy, and looked very much like migrant workers working somewhere. His heart fluttered. Could it be that these people are the workers he is looking for who have been stranded across the bridge for a long time?

It seems that the eight achievements are yes, and it seems that they must have just returned from the town of Crossing the Water, and it is obvious that this group of workers is going to finish eating here before going back.

Ye Feng planned to observe them for a while before speaking.

The men shouted left and right. The people haven't sat down yet. The voice had fallen: "Boss." Today I have to drink a good drink, and I have to eat good meat and drink good wine. ”

One of the men, with a thick southern accent, shouted, "Yes." If you want it, you have to eat it well, but you can just have some cheap side dishes and a drink, you know? ”

The boss answered, beckoned to take a seat, but it was not a coincidence, the restaurant was full, only Ye Feng still had a place here, these people all sat next to Ye Feng, huddled together, crowded and shouted, Ye Feng originally seemed a little lonely because he missed Lin Qingyin, and at this time he was thrown out of the clouds.

A migrant worker in his early thirties smiled at Ye Feng and said, "Brother, I'm sorry, brothers, I'm sorry." ”

Ye Feng naturally didn't refuse to say anything, let them sit down, called the boss, ordered a bowl of noodles, and ordered a bottle of beer.

Ye Feng squinted at the group of migrant workers, their hair was messy, their faces were dusty, they were grinning, their mouths were full of yellow teeth, they were smoking inferior cigarettes, they were lighting vegetables with each other, greetings, and a person reached into the armpit, Ye Feng thought he was going to tickle, but he took out a pack of cigarettes, which were half a box of Hongshan brand cigarettes that retailed for twenty yuan, wrinkled, mixed with some tobacco leaves, I don't know how long it had been placed.

The man said: "Brothers, I have been hiding this box of good cigarettes for a long time and am reluctant to smoke it, let's share it together today." The others stood up one after another, shook their hands, and said: "Sixth brother, that's not good, we have cigarettes to smoke, this box of Hongshan, when all the money can be returned, let's celebrate and smoke together." ”

Ye Feng touched the pocket in Su Qing specially prepared haode special Huanan Hai cigarettes for him, and there are more than a dozen special cigarettes like this that cannot be bought on the market in the cabinet at home, and the taste in his heart is complicated, a box of red mountains, twenty yuan, compared to the special Huanan Hai cigarettes he smoked recently, I don't know how many grades worse, but these workers are so reluctant to smoke one, a small cigarette, but the poor and the rich, so far away.

At this time, the boss shouted and walked over, handed over the menu, stood aside with a smile on his face and waited for those few to order, those people were polite to each other, and they all asked others to order, and they greeted each other for a long time, the dishes were ordered, three dishes and one soup, plus a bottle of low-cost liquor, six or seven people, eating so many dishes, drinking such a little wine, it was too shabby, the boss obviously pulled down his face, and the previous smile was naturally long gone, took back the menu, glanced at those people, and turned away.

Several people drank wine with each other and talked about the chores of their relatives in their respective hometowns, and the food gradually became less and less, and the more they drank, the less they drank. Later, several people took out the money in their pockets, counted it, and then asked for another bottle of liquor, clinking glasses and changing the glasses, and drank happily.

Ye Feng looked at them and saw that they were smoking inferior cigarettes vigorously, pitifully holding the few leftover dishes, often drinking a few big sips of wine, choking and reddening, but they were reluctant to eat a mouthful of food.

Ye Feng suddenly felt very envious of them, once upon a time, when he got together with Brother Zhuzi and a group of other workers, he would also drink a few glasses like them, talk nonsense, drink all the time, and the people who drank turned their backs, but they also drank refreshingly!

But now, with the change of identity, the change of ability, the change of status, and the change of mood, when I feel that I should live a serious and low-key life, when I feel that I should use more time and energy to pursue the road of cultivation, and when I feel that drinking should be used for profit, the taste of wine will no longer have the taste of the day.

At this time, he suddenly saw these migrant workers, gulping down wine, their mouths full of greasy, and happily changing glasses, Ye Feng suddenly felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart, looking at them, he only felt that he was already drunk.

The person named Sixth Brother among these people suddenly turned his head to look at Ye Feng at this time, and said with a smile: "Brother, since we are sitting together, come on, how about we have a few drinks?" ”

Ye Feng paused, and subconsciously replied: "I'm sorry, brother, I still have something to do in the afternoon, so I don't dare to drink more." ”

The sixth brother didn't force it anymore, smiled at Ye Feng, took another sip of wine, and said while drinking: "When I was your age, I could make a bottle myself, but unfortunately, we wanted to drink more today, but we couldn't afford it." ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of several people next to him sank, and one said: "Sixth brother, the brothers have spent so much time on this bridge across the water, they didn't even go back for the New Year last year, and now they have to consume even the only remaining living expenses. ”

The sixth brother was silent for a while, raised his head violently and poured the wine in the cup, smashed his fist on the table, and said: ", there is no contract, no witnesses, the Pian'er police station, the district public security bureau doesn't care, the traffic bureau doesn't care, the district party committee and district government don't care, since it's forced to this, it won't work if you don't let it go, we must get the hard-earned money, and the justice of the dead and those seriously injured fellow brothers must also be recovered, the brothers in Guoshui Town and Wujiang City have gone to the municipal party committee to squat, Decided to inform the media, jump off the building to attract onlookers, let's also draw a scoop according to the gourd, brothers, after eating this meal, let's go to the Pearl Municipal Party Committee Building, the secretary is not in the mayor, the mayor is not in the deputy mayor, where should the newspaper and television station call or call, they ignore us is a thing, this time Lao Tzu is out of the jail, the fire at the door of the municipal party committee must be lit, the building opposite the municipal party committee, must also climb up, the reporters dare not care, just hand it over to the onlookers, Maybe that person can make a post on the Internet and stir up this matter, but now, what we hope most is to make this matter bigger, to the ears of the secretary of the municipal party committee, and even to the ears of those big officials in the capital.........."
