fourteen
Zhang Nan's expression when he saw Bao Liang was a little calmer than Bao Liang expected, but Bao Liang's thinking about it day and night for many days still made him uncontrollable and hugged this woman who was so hard to give up.
Zhang Nan only learned that he had arrived downstairs after receiving a call from Bao Liang, she didn't let him go upstairs, there were many people in the company, and it was inconvenient to meet Bao Liang. She left the office and hurried downstairs, and as soon as the elevator door opened, she saw Bao Liang standing alone in front of the elevator door on the first floor. She motioned for Bao Liang to follow her into a secluded aisle, only to notice that one of Bao Liang's legs was very lame. She just wanted to ask what was going on, but her whole body was hugged tightly by Bao Liang.
In the half month since Zhang Nan went on a business trip to Shenzhen, his mood has changed from excitement to stability, and it is not without reason to think carefully about his parents' admonition. My father's words are particularly pertinent: a woman's life's major event cannot be based on a momentary passion, we can let you contact each other, just don't be rash and quick. On the return flight, she carefully considered her attitude towards this sudden relationship, and the original excitement was gradually controlled by rational composure. She thinks that at least the heat between her and this boy should be reduced to a position where she can advance and retreat freely, and both parties should be a little calmer, a little precipitated, and take the initiative to slow down the process of love, and use a longer time and a more objective attitude to examine each other's personalities and examine all aspects of integration. She thinks that it may be reasonable for her parents to be worried, that between a man and a woman with a huge disparity in economic status, they should be more vigilant about any sudden relationship, one may be for pure love, and the other may be just a transaction. Sometimes this impure purpose is subtly blinded by a seemingly pure performance.
But in this unmanned aisle, at this moment, she was suddenly embraced by this boy with a sunny face, and her original reserved reserve immediately collapsed. The difference between the fifteen days and the absence of news is also a torment for Zhang Nan, and it is also a kind of savings, and she understands that she actually still longs for such a full hug and such a touching kiss!
She must admit that none of the "boyfriends" she has had unintentionally dated since she was in college have ever given her such a soul-stirring excitement. The big hands that cupped her cheeks, and every finger inserted into her hair, was diffusing a youthful vitality. She couldn't help but grab Bao Liang's back with both hands, which was full of wisps of muscles. The muscles couldn't tell whether they were firm or delicate, soft or hard, and the vivid touch made her unconsciously open her lips, letting the moist kiss go deeper.
That night, Zhang Nan had a long talk with Baoliang, and although she did not give her parents' admonition and confession, she emphasized her pursuit. She said Baoliang, you must understand that what I need is a lasting true love, and I cannot tolerate the slightest hypocrisy and fraud in this love. Although it is now a commercial society, people always need to keep the last thing, and that is feelings, and real feelings cannot contain any transactional elements. A lot of people don't need this kind of affection anymore, but I do; Many people don't believe that there is still such a feeling, but I want to find it!
Bao Liang was very excited, because he really loved Zhang Nan to death, his young heart was extremely sincere, and he was the same as Zhang Nan, longing for true love. He even longed to go to the imaginary wilderness with Zhang Nan, except for the beginning of the mountains and rivers, there was only the simple laughter of the two of them. He didn't know what words to use to express his sincerity:
"I love you, please believe I'm real."
Bao Liang's simple eyes, as well as his young voice, still conquered Zhang Nan. She did believe that between her and the young man, there was real love, but she still asked again, like a child: "Can you assure me that you love me only because you like me, and not for anything else, can you guarantee it?" ”
Bao Liang said, "Yes! ”
Zhang Nan said: "Okay, let's just say it!" Deal! ”
After Zhang Nan returned home that night, he couldn't wait to communicate with his parents. What made her unhappy was that her mother still believed in Baoliang's vows, while her father's attitude was slightly adjusted.
Although the father still advises his daughter to get along with Bao Liang calmly, he has no objection to getting along after all. He told his daughter that the reliable way to test the authenticity of people's hearts is not to listen to their words or to watch their deeds, but to rely on time. Only time can reveal the truth, dig out real gold, and there are no lies, and time can prevail. The so-called time, of course, is not a year or two.
The mother's position has not been loosened, time is like flowing water, going and not returning, how many years should the daughter suffer? When we saw that this young man loved our Nan Nan with ulterior motives, our Nan Nan had already mistaken our youth. At that time, if I go back and choose a mate again, I am afraid it will be difficult to be like Nan Nan's current conditions.
In order to persuade her daughter, the mother called Zhang Nan's cousin again, and the mother's position was naturally fully supported by the cousin. My cousin even thinks that the family is not absolutely old-fashioned, and the concept of the family does reflect the reality of life. The most effective way to ensure the harmony of the two parties in the marriage and love in many aspects, such as the spiritual realm and living habits, is as normal as the fact that men and women should be of the same age or that men and women should be older. My cousin asked Zhang Nan to think about it on the phone, what kind of charm is her attraction to Bao Liang, you are older than him in terms of age, and you are not a star in terms of appearance, with Bao Liang's situation, of course, it can only be your family background and your bulging money bag.
The cousin's eloquence made Zhang Nan lose her claim again, she still wanted to use the most beautiful word "love" to resist stubbornly, but she was immediately scorned by her cousin: love will always be second compared to survival, this is not human character but human nature. When you fall in love with someone who doesn't even have the guarantee of their own survival, how do you know if he's in love or for survival?
Regarding Zhang Nan's idea of wanting to sponsor Baoliang to go to college this time, even his father, who belongs to the "dove", expressed fierce opposition. My father said that although young people should be encouraged to love learning, they should be encouraged to support themselves. If you don't have a romantic relationship, and I have no objection to you sponsoring young people in difficulty to go to school, then it is better to donate to a hope primary school, wouldn't it be more loving? Zhang Nan repeatedly argued with his parents and cousin about the promise he had made to Bao Liang: I never believe that Bao Liang will be a frozen snake, and when I warm him up, he will bite me back. My cousin said: Yes, he is not a frozen snake, nor is he a tiger who worships a cat as a master, he may not necessarily bite back after benefiting, but he is a human being. If it is a person, it will not escape the law of human survival, and if it is a person, it will find the fastest and most convenient way to go straight to the goal. What is his purpose, is it to love a woman with all his heart, or to live a better life for himself? What is more terrifying about people than poisonous snakes and tigers is that people can perform, people can disguise, people can talk flatteringly, and people's tears are more sensational than crocodile tears.
The cousin was alarmist, and the mother agreed. Father's advice is more modest: if you can be sure that you really love him, then the remaining question is simple and straightforward: whether he really loves you. Theoretically, if you really love each other, family or age is not a problem. So I have no objection to you getting along for a while, examining each other, running in with each other, and now all conclusions are not objective and premature. You have to be careful not to give him money, not to give him any material help, not to give him any promises. You draw a pancake for a hungry man, and he can easily show loyalty to you. Is there any value in such faithfulness, of course not; Does this kind of faithfulness make you feel solid, of course not!
Zhang Nan couldn't sleep that night, and the advice of her parents and cousin made her very depressed. She knew very well that this depression was not entirely due to their overly calm gaze, which ruined her sense of beauty in romantic love, but more because their views were not unreasonable, not nonsense.
Baoliang was very excited that night, he seemed to have made a life for himself, found a belonging, his heart was full of happiness, and his yearning for love overwhelmed everything. The first thing he did when he returned to his lodgings was to resolutely move his bed out of Fei Fei's hut.
Fei Fei looked at her coldly and didn't say a word. The room where Li Chen and Liu Cunliang slept was not too big, the two of them were on the ground one by one, and the rest of the place was full of things, and there was very little room for maneuver. Bao Liang spread the cover on the floor of the hall, the floor tiles that the landlord pasted in the hall many years ago have cracked everywhere, but it is always better than the concrete floor, and the moisture hurts people.
Li Chen and Liu Cunliang were also at home, and they didn't care much when they saw the escalation of the cold war between Baoliang and Feifei. Liu Cunliang wanted to persuade, but stood at the door of the hut and whispered to Feifei: "What's wrong with Baoliang?" As a result, Fei Fei slammed the door shut, and there was no reply.
In the evening, Li Chen went to work, and Liu Cunliang also went out. The day after Li Chen found a job at a nightclub, Liu Cunliang resigned from the small restaurant where he worked. Because he is an aspiring man with lofty ideals, how can he waste his time washing dishes and serving dishes in such a small face, after repeated pleas to his parents, he finally took out two-thirds of the family's savings. These two-thirds of the family funds totaled 25,000 yuan, which was used for Liu Cunliang's initial principal to realize his ideals. Liu Cunliang plans to open a clothing store or a small restaurant. Chinese people who want to make money generally think of reselling clothes or opening a restaurant.
After Li Chen left, Liu Cunliang also went to the nearby night market to do "market research", and called Fei Fei to go with him through the door of the hut, but Fei Fei did not respond in the door. Liu Cunliang had no choice but to go out by himself, and before going out, he asked Baoliang if he wanted to go to the night market to have a look, and then went to the Internet café to charter the night together. Bao Liang also shook his head to indicate that he was not interested.
After Liu Cunliang left, Baoliang lay on the floor, holding an evening newspaper he had just bought on the street, silently calculating the future. His foot injury is expected to heal in a week, and he can look for work before then.
On the advertising page of the evening newspaper, there were dense advertisements for various types of jobs, and Bao Liang was dizzy to see, and he drew a few goals that he could try, and wondered if this limping appearance was bad for his luck. After reading the evening newspaper, he turned off the lights and meditated, thought about his mother and sister, and the small courtyard of his family on the bank of the Jianhe River when he was a child, which is also a never-fading scenery in his memory. He also thought of his father. In the past, when he thought of his father, he was always full of shame and grievances, but now he suddenly felt a little pity, perhaps because he had found a Zhang Nan, so he knew that he should be sympathetic to his father's loneliness. I don't know if my father is cared for now, or if he still lives alone in that house full of sorrow and blood, lonely and lonely.
Thinking of his poor father and mother and his sister who he had not seen for a long time, the corners of Bao Liang's eyes moistened, and he fell asleep with a tear that seemed to be there. When he woke up, he seemed to dream of the fire-breathing girl again. The girl sprayed a raging fire directly into his face, and the sensation on his face was not burned, but rather a touch of coolness.
When he woke up, the lights in the house were still dark, and he couldn't tell whether it was late at night or dawn, and he didn't know if Li Chen and Liu Cunliang were still outside or had returned. The hall was quiet, but Bao Liang was quickly startled by a figure beside him.
The figure was so close to him that he could recognize it as Fei Fei from his breath. Fifi leaned down at the head of his bed, leaning over and kissing him gently. Her tears wet her cheeks, but she couldn't hear her whimper.
Bao Liang lay still and let Fei Fei kiss him for a while, and when Fei Fei wanted to squeeze into the bunk and hug him, he calmly refused.
"Fei Fei, go to sleep."
Fei Fei stopped, and she knelt beside Bao Liang, motionless like a statue. Suddenly, she turned on one of the table lamps that Baoliang had placed next to her pillow, and the facial features on her face immediately became cloudy and uneven.
On that face, with its uneven shadows, the tear stains had dried up. The undulating breath in his chest no longer continued to twitch, and the gaze radiating from his eyes had never been so serious, and this serious gaze made Bao Liang realize that he should sit up and respond to Fei Fei head-on with a look that could not be avoided.
"Baoliang," said Fei Fei, "do you really love that woman?" ”
Bao Liang said, "Love. ”
Fei Fei took a breath and said, "If you love her, you can't love me anymore?" ”
Bao Liang said: "Friendship can be shared, but there is only one love." ”
Fei Fei said: "But your love is always changing, and I am the one who only loves one person." ”
Bao Liang wanted to say, "I never loved you at all." "But these words must have stabbed Fei Fei, so he can't say it. He endured it for a long time, and only said: "Feifei, forgive me, I'm sorry." He knew that once Fei Fei asked: Why do you still live with me if you don't love me? Then he can only be ashamed of himself.
Fei Fei didn't answer Baoliang's apology, which seemed to her to be just a way to prevaricate and refuse. She asked Bao Liang, "She's beautiful?" ”
Bao Liang said, "I don't want to talk to you about her. ”
Fei Fei paused for a moment and asked again, "She's rich?" ”
Bao Liang said, "Yes. ”
Fei Fei asked, "Are you in it for the money?" ”
Bao Liang felt insulted and did not answer.
Fei Fei continued: "If you are for the money, I can accept it." ”
Bao Liang restrained his anger, lifted the quilt and tried to stand up: "Fei Fei, since you think I am such a shameless person, why do you bother to pay attention to me!" I'll tell you one last time, I don't want to talk to you about her! ”
Fei Fei's stubborn voice expressed her resoluteness: "Why don't you talk about it!" I have to talk to you! ”
Bao Liang frowned and pushed her: "Go, go, go back to sleep, you're not sleepy, I'm sleepy, I have to go to find a job tomorrow." ”
Fei Fei's voice began to be unable to suppress her vicious resentment, she didn't care whether it was nearly midnight or not, "You still have to find a job?" Won't you let her raise you, you have such a big girl, and you still have to look for a job? ”
Fei Fei's shouts were extremely high-pitched in the dead of night, each of which pierced Baoliang's fragile nerves. The importance of money in this era is so recognized that two very different women have such a suspicion of Bao Liang.
Bao Liang stood up, lame on one leg to pull Fei Fei up, twisting her arm and pushing her into the hut. Fei Fei shook off Bao Liang vigorously and shook Bao Liang off. Bao Liang put on his clothes indiscriminately and said fiercely: "If you don't let me sleep, I'll sleep elsewhere!" He opened the door to leave, but Fei Fei suddenly pounced on him, and hugged his waist in a pleading manner.
"Baoliang, don't go, where are you going to sleep?"
Bao Liang desperately broke Fei Fei's hands, and broke Fei Fei a few times before breaking it open, and at the same time he grabbed the door and threw down a few angry words:
"You can't take care of it!"
Bao Liang walked out of the house, and after walking far away, he heard Fei Fei crying. Of course, the shout disturbed the neighbors, and several of them opened the door and cursed:
"You can't sleep! What are you arguing about, three watches in the middle of the night! ”
They must have also heard Fei Fei's resentment: "You can sleep with whomever you want, you men are not a good person!" ”
Under Fei Fei's shouting and probing from the neighbors, Bao Liang limped out of the alley and onto the street. There was not a single person in sight on the street, except for a sprinkler truck from the municipal corporation in the distance. He limped forward blindly, just thinking as far away as possible from the scolding and prying eyes. He really didn't want to go back to that slum, where he felt no self-esteem.
Unconsciously, he walked to the gate of the park, and on the square at the entrance of the park, the lights were as clear as the moon. In the center of this silver-white square, he suddenly saw a silver-white "Audi" waiting quietly. He walked over with fluttering steps, trying to pull the door and get into the car, but the car silently melted into the silvery air, and there was no trace.
The hallucinations drained his physical strength. Exhausted, he sat down on the steps at the entrance to the park. He saw a white "BMW" looming in the corner of the square...... He saw himself walk over again, pulled the door open and looked inside. In the car, Quan Hu and his sister were hugging each other and kissing each other, and his sister looked up and saw him, and reached out to touch his hair. He called out to his sister, who laughed but didn't answer. The first thing he wanted to tell his sister was that his mother was dead, but his sister still laughed. He also told his sister that he had also run away from home and that he was now alone. My sister gently touched his hair with her hand, her fingers reached into the hair bush, and her palm brushed the ends of her hair, that gentleness, it was really good. Bao Liang closed his eyes and enjoyed himself, and when he opened his eyes again, the square was empty, silent.
Bao Liang was lying on his lap, he wanted to sink himself into thought and reverie, but he fell asleep unconsciously. He woke up at dawn, and there were really a few cars parked in the square, but there were no "BMWs" and no "Audis".
A week later, Hora's feet were almost better.
He was free to go out on the street, and when the landlord came over and made a lot of noise, he could just walk away. If you walk slowly, you can hardly see a bit of limp.
From this injury, Bao Liang further experienced his father's mentality from a physiological level, how difficult life will be for a person with inconvenient legs and feet. There were many times when Bao Liang really wanted to go home to see, although this home did not have the kind of intimacy that made people dream compared to the one on the bank of the Jianhe River, but it was also his home, that courtyard with new roof tiles, and his father with inconvenient legs and feet.
However, Bao Liang never went back, and he couldn't tell whether he was afraid to see his father, or whether he was angry and refused to give in to his father.
It was getting colder.
Bao Liang found a new job, and he was hired as a clerk in a small porcelain shop in the antique market. Bao Liang has clear eyebrows, and has a high school degree and a local hukou, so it is not difficult to find a job such as a clerk. It's just that this job only has a basic salary of 300 yuan per month, and I take care of one lunch. If you want to earn more, it all depends on sales commissions. In the first month, Bao Liang only raised more than 20 yuan, and in the second month, he raised more, but it was only 300 yuan.
During this period, Baoliang's biggest thought every day was to look forward to Zhang Nan calling him to make an appointment. It is inconvenient for him to take the initiative to ask Zhang Nan out, if he takes the initiative to ask a girl out, no matter where he goes, he should not be paid by the person who is being invited. If Zhang Nan asked him out, he would also suggest going to a free park or going to a shopping mall, so as not to break the bank for him.
So he usually waits for Zhang Nan to ask him.
There are also problems after a long time, Zhang Nan sometimes has some complaints: When people fall in love, men chase women, why don't you take the initiative at all, and always take the shelf to ask people to ask you out? Bao Liang could only explain embarrassedly: I also want to take the initiative to ask you, but you are so busy, I am afraid that you will be annoyed by the appointment. Zhang Nan said that there are too many appointments, you haven't made an appointment with me once! Bao Liang said: I haven't earned enough money yet, and I have nowhere to ask you to come out, for fear that you will be angry. Zhang Nan said: I saw you, not to go somewhere, don't make excuses. Zhang Nan said that Baoliang was making excuses, in fact, she understood Baoliang's psychology, but she still hoped that Baoliang could take the initiative. Bao Liang took the initiative, in fact, to satisfy her certain psychology.
So, Baoliang asked her out, and the place of meeting was usually designated by Zhang Nan. Those locations, usually the cafés of high-end hotels or the restaurants frequented by fashionable people, are expensive establishments. Sometimes I have to change places two or three times a night, eat, drink, and chat. Zhang Nan doesn't like lively places such as dance halls, nightclubs and karaoke, clubbing is also the kind of quiet bar, or simply find an upper-class internal club, and the two of them have a candle alone, just want a romantic mood. After that, it was naturally Zhang Nan who paid the bill.
As for passionate actions such as kissing and hugging, they are generally carried out in Zhang Nan's car under the cover of night, and Baoliang takes the initiative.
During this period, Bao Liang still lived with Li Chen. Li Chen found a job again, and he earned a lot of money, so Bao Liang's rent of 300 yuan was also exempted. Who made me your brother, Li Chen said.
During this period, Liu Cunliang's ambition has officially taken the first step of the Long March. In the famous night market in the provincial capital, he ordered a clothing shop ten meters square, began to carry out simple decorations, ordered shelves, purchased equipment and items necessary for business, and had already gone to the south twice to find a way to contact the source of goods. So far, the respective career conditions and economic conditions of the three heroes of Jianning, Baoliang has become rich and poor, and has become the bottom.
During this period, Fei Fei still lived in the hut of Li Chen's family, and the cold war between him and Bao Liang continued in a hurry. Li Chen was going to charge Fei Fei for the room: Baoliang is my brother, I can get the bill free, but you are not, so our friends belong to friends, and business belongs to business. But Feifei didn't have the money to pay, if it weren't for pestering Baoliang, she would have moved to her uncle's snack bar to eat and live for nothing. Later, Liu Cunliang came out to plead with Li Chen, saying What are you doing, we are all from Jianning, we have been friends for so long, and it is not easy for anyone to live in the provincial capital, but don't help yourself. In fact, Li Chen didn't really want money, he looked at Bao Liang and was indifferent to Fei Fei, and he wanted to take advantage of the situation to replace him, but Fei Fei didn't accept this stubble, and Li Chen couldn't open his mouth.
Later, Fei Fei left by herself and went back to Jianning. Her mother's condition continued to deteriorate, and she could no longer get out of bed, and her daily life was taken care of by Fei Fei's grandmother, who was in her seventies. Grandma is not Feifei's mother's real mother, so she complains every day and is reluctant. It's no wonder that after Feifei's father disappeared, her grandmother only lived on the monthly pension from the factory. After Fei Fei's mother lay down, she couldn't do some manual work that she could do, and the little pension to support the two women was of course stretched. So grandma asked someone to call Fei Fei back, your own wife you will raise it yourself, you adults and children will run away and leave it alone, why do I have to do this as an old lady!
Bao Liang only slowly learned about these situations after Fei Fei returned from Jianning. Fei Fei came back with only one purpose, which was to make money as soon as possible and make a lot of money as soon as possible. Bao Liang temporarily faded out of Fei Fei's sight, no longer the center of her daily and nightly attention and provocation.
Bao Liang found that when Fei Fei came back from Jianning this time, she was more in contact with Li Chen, often going in and out together, and always going out at dusk and returning in the middle of the night. Bao Liang was suspicious and took the initiative to ask Fei Fei what she was doing outside these days. Fei Fei replied coldly, she didn't do anything, she was doing business. Bao Liang is strange: to do business, what capital do you have to do business? Fei Fei asked rhetorically: What kind of capital do you say I have! Don't you understand what kind of capital I have!
Bao Liang is stupid and doesn't understand.
Once when Bao Liang came back from work, he saw Liu Cunliang and Fei Fei arguing at home, only to know that Fei Fei had just returned from Jianning and borrowed 10,000 yuan from Liu Cunliang. said that he would definitely return it within half a month of death, but when half a month came, Fei Fei only returned three hundred. The 10,000 yuan was paid by Liu Cunliang for the first installment of the rent, plus the only remaining blood capital after the decoration and storage, which was originally intended to be used for purchase, but after Fei Fei begged with tears in her eyes, she gritted her teeth and gave it to her. Now his small shop has everything in place, only the purchase is owed, and the source of goods has been contacted, but the money is gone.
That face Liu Cunliang spent 5,000 yuan from others, paid a total of 5,000 yuan in rent for two months, spent more than 3,000 yuan to decorate and buy facilities and supplies, and lent Fei Fei 10,000 yuan, Liu Cunliang only had more than 1,000 yuan left in his hand. The rent after two months must be filled by operating profits, Liu Cunliang has calculated before, in the first two months, it is still possible to make up enough rent, and if you can't pay two months, you will pay one month first, and one month will definitely be guaranteed if you pay one month. The landlord agreed in advance: as long as the rent is in arrears for more than two months, it will be bombarded immediately, there is nothing to negotiate!
Liu Cunliang is about to go crazy, crazy enough to kneel for Fei Fei, the 25,000 yuan is the savings of his parents who have worked hard for half a life, once they can't open a business and pay or rent out, the more than 13,000 yuan spent on the front store, decoration, shopping, and pre-rental will be wasted. If Fei Fei doesn't come back with 10,000 yuan, Liu Cunliang will have to find a place to jump off the building. If he doesn't jump off the building, then he will never go home to meet his parents again for the rest of his life.
When Bao Liang went back and saw them arguing, Liu Cunliang sometimes begged, sometimes shouted angrily, sometimes cried silently, and pumped his mouth hard, but it was useless. Although Fei Fei also had tears on her face, she was indifferent to Liu Cunliang's hysteria. She turned around and walked into the hut, and Liu Cunliang followed, arguing with each other and crying with each other. Bao Liang sat on the bunk to review the textbook for the college entrance examination, and after reading half a page, he couldn't help but walk into the hut and persuade him. But anyone can say anything about persuasion, and if they say it, it's useless, Fei Fei's mother's illness and Liu Cunliang's shop, which side is a matter of life and death. After persuading them for a long time, they suddenly stopped arguing, and suddenly turned their attention to Baoliang.
Liu Cunliang said: Baoliang, now I am really desperate, can you help me think of a way, you must have a way. Bao Liang was stunned for a moment and said: What can I do? Liu Cunliang said: Didn't you have a rich girlfriend, can you help me lend 10,000 yuan first, let me open the shop first, and Fei Fei will return the money to me in the future, or I will pay it back as soon as I have income from the business. Bao Liang immediately shook his head: I am just friends with that girl, and I don't talk about money, so this thing will definitely not work. Liu Cunliang grabbed Bao Liang and looked like he was about to kneel: Or you go home and beg your father, why are you also your father's son. As soon as Bao Liang heard Liu Cunliang's words, he knew that he was in a hurry to go to the doctor, and he had reached the level of madness. But Liu Cunliang's eyes were red, and he grabbed Baoliang's hands, which were full of cold sweat. He said Baoliang, how many years of our brothers, you can't look at me like this and wait for death, we all swore when we were brothers, we can't be born on the same day, but I wish to die on the same day! Baoliang's money is my parents' life money, and if I don't lose it, I will have to die. Bao Liang comforted: Don't say that, when Li Chen comes back, let's discuss it and see how much money we can come up with. Fei Fei, you also beg your uncle, how much can you get, you forced Cunliang to this point, you can't help it. Fei Fei didn't speak, but Liu Cunliang excused her: What can Fei Fei do, her uncle's snack bar is about to collapse, I know it. Fei Fei went to Li Chen's nightclub to sit on the stage, and she borrowed my 10,000 yuan, of which 8,000 was given to her mother, 1,000 paid a deposit for the stage, and 1,000 bought clothes for the stage. She thought she could make a lot of money in one sitting, but she had been sitting for almost a week, and she didn't earn enough money to take a taxi in the middle of the night.
Bao Liang was startled and turned his face to look at Fei Fei. No wonder Fei Fei dressed weirdly at night, and before going out, she still smeared and wiped her face, and her lips were even redder than before, it turned out that she did this kind of business! He asked Fei Fei sharply: Fei Fei, are you going to sit on the stage? Fei Fei twisted her head to look elsewhere. Bao Liang didn't believe it, and asked again: "Fei Fei, are you going to be a lady sitting on the stage?" ”
Fei Fei didn't look at Bao Liang, and replied in a low voice: "What should I do to you!" ”
Bao Liang still shouted: "It's none of my business for you to do anything else, you just can't do this!" ”
Fei Fei turned her face and glared at Baoliang angrily: "Can you control it, you Lu Baoliang, who are you, what do you do, can you control it!" ”
Bao Liang roared: "Don't care who I am, I have to take care of you if you do this, you just can't do this!" ”
Fei Fei also yelled: "I'll do it, hey, I'll do it, what can you do to me!" ”
Bao Liang was so angry, and his tone became vicious: "Why are you so shameless, you are so shameless at such a young age, do you say that you can be saved in the future!" ”
Fei Fei's face was distorted, she wanted to cry but held back, but her voice shook her crying: "What qualifications do you have to take care of me, if you want to take care of me early, can I do this?" I'm so good to you, you're still hooking up with other women outside, you say I'm shameless, do you want face! Even your dad doesn't want you anymore, even your own sister doesn't look for you anymore, you want face, do you have a face! ”
Fei Fei is a person who is in a hurry to uncover people's scars and dig up people's ancestral graves, Bao Liang can't tolerate others talking about his father and sister, and he can't tolerate others attacking him without relatives, so he rushed up and gave Fei Fei a look, his hand was not heavy, but it hit his face and snapped. Fei Fei covered her face and cried, and gave him a backhand, but was blocked by Baoliang, who walked out of the door of the house with red eyes.
That night, Bao Liang wandered on the street for a long time, and his heart was very sad. He was in the city, had no other friends, and had lost contact with his classmates. He could imagine that all those classmates and alumni in middle school and college must have known about his bad deeds, and even if there were people who were still willing to associate with him, he would not be able to get close to them anymore.
He really wanted to call Zhang Nan and ask her if she was free now, and he really wanted her to hug him and soothe the loneliness in his heart.
The weather is really cold, and the solar term has entered winter. Bao Liang stood on the side of the street and cowered when he saw a bus entering the station and someone getting on and off the bus. The people who got on and off the bus were all in a hurry, reminiscent of their families and fires waiting for them.
Another car entered the station, Bao Liang watched in a daze as the people who got off the bus scattered, and the people who got on the bus crowded in front of the door, he suddenly couldn't help it, and at the moment when the door was about to close, he raised his feet and stepped into the car.
The car drove forward, constantly stopping at the station, and the passengers went up and down, and the car became more and more empty. Another stop, Bao Liang's chest suddenly jumped, he hurriedly paid the fare, and got off the bus together with several passengers who arrived at the station. As the car drove away, the passengers scattered, leaving Bao Liang alone.
It's a very familiar street, and the shops on both sides are long closed. The strong winds of the winter night swept through the empty streets, rolling up some white garbage. The wind pushed Baoliang's back forward, and he walked a little involuntarily. He walked involuntarily into an alley, which was as short as the eye could see. The red door in the alley, the lonely lights in the wall, as always. He once imagined that his father was no longer here, and that the house had long been empty.
But at this time, the night was already dark, and the house in the courtyard was still lit up, and the light passed through the low wall, reflecting the green tiles at the head of the wall. Bao Liang stood outside the wall for a long time, until the wind in the alley blew through his chest and back, and he did not hear any faint sound from the courtyard house.
With his frozen, right hand, he gently touched the courtyard door, the patent leather on the door looked rougher than before, and there were still a few breaks next to the knocker. Bao Liang pushed a little harder, but the courtyard door did not move, and the sound of the wind covered all movement, including the sound of Bao Liang leaving.
Bao Liang took the last bus and returned to his accommodation the way he came.
He didn't really have anywhere else but to come back here.
When Bao Liang returned here, the neighbors had already slept, and the lights in the corridor had long been turned off, and the residents of this place were poor, and they cared about the dark lights in the corridors. Bao Liang didn't go to grope for the lamp rope, walked to the door in the dark, accidentally trampled on a soft thing under his feet, almost tripped over a heel, and touched a person's face when he touched the ground with his hand, which frightened Bao Liang and lost his voice.
Bao Liang's eyes had adapted to the only ray of light in the corridor, and he recognized from the style of his clothes that it was Liu Cunliang lying on the ground, and Bao Liang immediately shouted desperately:
"Cun Liang! What's wrong with you, Cunliang! Bright and bright! ”
The shouting startled the neighbors again, and the faces of those who leaned out of the door were full of astonishment. Maybe they were tired of these tenants who lived together with men and women, and if they weren't afraid of retaliation, they would have gone to the police station to complain about them.
But this time Baoliang's shouting was a bit unusual, not like ordinary noisy. Someone turned on the electric light in the aisle, and they saw Bao Liang's face pale, holding Liu Cunliang who was lying on the ground and shouting in a sad voice. When the light was turned on, Bao Liang saw that Liu Cunliang was full of wine, and vomited all over the place, only to know that he was drunk, not as he thought just now, and he couldn't think of looking for a short view.
The breath of suffocation in Bao Liang's throat was relieved, and he looked at Liu Cunliang, who was drunk and unconscious, and looked at the neighbors who were standing around, and stammered: "Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry......"
Fei Fei also opened the door of the house, looking out at the door at a loss. The neighbors muttered dissatisfaction as they went back to their homes, and Fei Fei turned back into the house. Baoliang helped Liu Cunliang up, dragged him into the house, dragged him to the bed, and then sat on the edge of the bed and gasped for a long time. Fei Fei came in with a basin of water and wiped Liu Cunliang's face and undressed. Bao Liang returned to the hall, sat on his bunk, watched Fei Fei clean up Liu Cunliang in the big house, and walked out after cleaning up and turning off the lights. She didn't look at Bao Liang, and walked straight into her cabin, and before the door was closed, she was stopped by Bao Liang from behind.
"Fifi."
Bao Liang stopped Fei Fei, but was silent for a long time, and when he saw Fei Fei close the door again, he opened his mouth again to stop her. His voice was very low, but Fei Fei could hear it word for word, absolutely fine.
"Feifei, don't do that, you owe Cunliang money, I will find a way to help you pay him back. Your mother will treat you in the future, and I can try my best to help you, but I don't want you to go to a nightclub to do that kind of thing again, I don't want you to live like this. ”
Fei Fei was also silent for a while, not looking back, Baoliang couldn't see her expression, but he could hear that she was choking.
"Do you still care about me? You're not...... Don't you care about me for a long time! ”
