Chapter 641: Uncle's Little Crucian Carp
The two of them got up in a hurry, washed up briefly, and went to the street to have a casual meal.
At this time, Jinan seems to have returned to its former liveliness, with busy traffic and endless shouting, and there is no trace of the haze brought by the disease.
Seeing Wu Jinghan limping away, I wanted to laugh, but I didn't dare to laugh.
In short, it's all my fault!
After eating, I didn't know if it was breakfast or lunch, and I thought of Li Cripple and Qiao Laosi, and I was still not very relieved, so I called Haoyu.
"Brother Haoyu, are Li Cripple and Qiao Laosi all right?"
Haoyu laughed a few times before replying: "It's already in the hospital!" β
"Ahh He's dead? β
"That's not true, it's just that it seems that the spirit has been greatly stimulated, and there is still sluggishness, and the doctor said that it will take a period of time to recuperate before it can fully recover."
"So they didn't say what they went through?"
"Say I've seen a ghost!" Haoyu sneered twice before he slowly spoke, "This time I also let him taste the taste of being dumb." β
I hesitated for a moment and spoke again: "Brother Haoyu, you ...... Why don't you ask me what's going on? β
"No, you don't! This is a good result, as for the process! I don't want to know. β
"Got it!"
After deducting the phone, I was in a good mood, and I directly took Wu Jinghan to the GAC Toyota 4S store.
Called the sales consultant on the way and said to pick up the car now.
Car, Billing, Listing...... Everything went smoothly, driving a new car and leaving the 4S store, I was a little excited, Wu Jinghan was also in a good mood, sitting in the passenger seat and humming a song unconsciously.
"Lu Dong, seeing that the New Year is getting closer and closer, where are we going to celebrate the New Year?"
Others may not be able to understand this, but I feel sad when I hear it.
Oh, yes!
Wu Jinghan and I are two people with the same fate, and we don't have parents - if you do the math, I am better than him, at least I have a second uncle and second aunt who are very good to me, and an uncle
"Either go to my second uncle and second aunt's house!"
Wu Jinghan smiled, and I could see that she was smiling bitterly.
"Is it appropriate for me to go for the New Year?"
"What's out of the ordinary? You...... If you want, let's register today, and when you want to do it in the future, when will you make up the wedding! β
Wu Jinghan was happy at first, and then "bah" me.
"You think beautifully! I have to ask for bride price, three gold, or something, all of which are indispensable! β
"Isn't the card you used to deposit money in?"
Wu Jinghan was speechless at once, she first looked at me and smiled, and then her entire upper body leaned on my shoulder, like a kitten.
"You...... What are you doing! Stay safe, I still have to drive! β
The university vacation was already early, not to mention that Wu Jinghan was a graduate student who was about to graduate, so she called the counselor in the department, and after making sure that it was okay, she discussed with me about going back to the estuary.
Thinking that Jinan was fine, I called Haoyu and Director Hu again.
If you want to go back, you have to talk to someone!
I wanted to talk to Xiaorou and them, but in the end I dispelled the idea.
One is that I don't have her contact information.
The second is that she feels that it is not necessary - such a powerful character as the Ink Sect Master must be able to know what she wants to know.
Finally, he left a message for Li Chunfeng on WeChat, just one sentence: I went back to my hometown in Hekou.
Li Chunfeng never replied.
Probably that's his way of doing things!
In the afternoon of the same day, Wu Jinghan accompanied me to the Ginza Building in Jinan to buy half a carload of things, most of which were for the second uncle and second aunt, and a small part for the eldest uncle.
Early the next morning, Wu Jinghan and I drove a new car on the highway, and the two of us chatted without saying a word, so comfortable.
When I got off the highway, I thought of Hao Minyuan and Liu Xili again, so I made a few more calls and told them that I was back.
Tian Zhen said on the phone that he and Yu Jin wanted to go to see Li Zhiguo's parents, after all, they were the old leaders who had been with us, and they were not bad to us, and the New Year was coming soon, for Li Guozhi's parents, it could be said that it was the end of the year!
Wu Jinghan on the side heard this, and also wanted to follow to see - Li Guozhi also took good care of her, and he was our indirect matchmaker.
So the plan is a little bit related.
Wu Jinghan and I first went to the Hekou District Police Station to pick up Yu Jin and Tian Zhen, and then went to Li Guozhi's village to visit his parents.
The doorman Lao Wang saw me driving a new car, and Wu Jinghan was still pulling Wu Jinghan in the car, and he was so happy to show his back molars.
"You kid is getting rich, you bought such a good car!"
I hurriedly handed over a piece of "Red Taishan" and said with a smile: "This cigarette will be smoked for you!" β
"Yo! It's a smokeβwhat do I want? Or do you want it? Or do you want it? β
"Uncle Wang, you're welcome, take it!"
"Hey, hey, that's fine!"
Since I have arrived at someone's territory, I always have to be next to the "bye bye pier", anyway, I prepared a gift for Hao Minyuan and them in advance.
Yu Jin and Tian Zhen became white and fat, and the two of them looked me up and down several times with ill-intentioned eyes, and then looked at Wu Jinghan, what they thought in their hearts, I naturally thought.
"Let's go! Go early, at noon, we used to eat hot pot at the fast food restaurant where we often eat hot pot to eat Yellow River catfish hot pot, right? β
"Okay!"
"You kid doesn't have a bad car! Or is it the latest? β
Circling around my white Camry, Tian Zhen joked with a smile.
"It's just a means of transportation!" I replied with a smile.
Driving on the embankment of the Yellow River again, looking at the trees with withered yellow leaves on both sides, everyone did not speak, I think everyone thought about what happened before!
At that time, we had to go around the Yellow River embankment almost every day, and there were Li Guozhi, Lao Hong, and Yao Liguo at that time.
What I didn't expect was that the center of all this actually revolved around me.
Who the hell am I?
Just a person with a pure yin personality?
Just a person who hides the soul of the god of war in his body?
It always feels like there's more to it than that.
There are many things that Yu Jin and Tian Zhen don't know, there is an old saying called "the ignorant are fearless", in fact, my personal experience is "the unambitious are lucky".
Relative to me, they were lucky.
If you can't let them know, you might as well keep it a secret forever!
Unknowingly, I came to Li Guozhi's village.
His parents were at home, and he looked at the old couple getting older. Since ancient times, white-haired people have sent black-haired people like this, and they may not forget their tragic son until the moment they close their eyes forever.
We put down the gifts we prepared, and Wu Jinghan secretly stuffed 5,000 yuan under the quilt.
In fact, as Li Guozhi's friends, there is only so much we can do - come and see them during the New Year's holiday, that's all.
When I came back, I drove the car directly to the fast food restaurant I used to go to, and the owner and the guy didn't change, and I recognized a few of us at a glance.
It's still hot pot catfish, put on the potatoes grown in the Yellow River beach - in fact, in other places, people with experience and common sense will not eat catfish, just because it is too dirty.
The catfish is a carnivore, but it not only eats live animals, but also carrion and garbage.
Growing up in the countryside, I once saw a half-rotting dog's head thrown by the river, and I tried to kick it with my foot, but it alarmed the catfish that was gnawing on the dog's head, and it scared me out of a cold sweat.
Catfish can grow to weigh a few catties in small rivers in general, and can exceed hundreds of catties in large lakes and rivers.
Generally speaking, most of them are distinguished from the beard, the catfish has four whiskers and eight whiskers, but now small traders will secretly cut off the beards of the pond catfish and pretend to be catfish.
However, the Yellow River catfish is different, first of all, it lives in the Yellow River, the Yellow River is a relatively clean river, and the yellow sediment has its own filtration function.
The meal was very high, and everyone's mood was also cloudy and sunny.
"Brothers, after eating, let's go back to the water conservancy station for a turn!"
As soon as Tian Zhen's words were finished, he got Yu Jin's response.
The water conservancy station was already empty, and the lock the size of a child's fist was seen in the distance, which made people's hearts sink involuntarily.
It's really people who have changed, and everything has changed.
"Now we have to worry about it, we can't get in at all." Yu Jin smiled and patted Tian Zhen's shoulder.
I was very touched by this moment.
Once the door is closed, you may never be able to enter again, in fact, it is not only a small courtyard that cannot enter, but also the past of many people - we will never go back.
I didn't ask directly when I sent the two of them back to the police station, but I could clearly feel that their little life was very comfortable. Although the salary is not high, it is an iron rice bowl, which is already a dream result for ordinary people.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, I drove again on the embankment of the Yellow River, this time to Donghu Village.
The small courtyard where the second uncle lived before is still the same, but the woods around the yard have become "bald", the uncle is sitting at the gate smoking dry tobacco, his mental state is good, he recognized us from a distance, and waved the cigarette pole in his hand to say hello.
Everything seems to have changed, but people have changed, and now the second uncle is already traveling west.
"Uncle, I will buy a big house in the district in the future, you can live with us!"
Uncle smiled and shook his head: "Don't go!" I am very content with my current life, and I know that compared to the decades when I was unable to move in bed, it is a blessing to be able to move freely! β
Oh, yes! People sometimes feel that they are unhappy, not because they get less, but because they expect to get too much, think about the uncle who was rotten all over, like a pile of mud on the kang, and his body still exuded a peculiar smell...... You should be content with him!
In the evening, my uncle wanted to make us a small fish soup to drink, and let us eat before leaving.
Before I could nod my head in agreement, Wu Jinghan happily agreed.
"But...... Uncle, where did you get the little fish? Sent by the neighbors in the village? β
Uncle smiled and shook his head: "I fish by myself, and now I go fishing every morning, and sometimes I can catch several catties in one morning!" β
As he spoke, he limped me to a large black urn on the side of the courtyard, lifted the lid, and suddenly saw a "crackling" piece inside.
"So many crucian carp!"
Wu Jinghan exclaimed.
Uncle smiled and said: "I also think it's very strange, the small fish in the Yellow River especially like to bite my hook, I raise the fish I catch in the tank, every three or five times, someone will bring rice, noodles and vegetables to exchange with me - I don't sell for money!" β
"Oh?" I couldn't help laughing, "So if you don't go out, uncle, you can have food and vegetables?" β
Uncle nodded like pounded garlic: "Yes! Sometimes there are people who bring fruit and tobacco! β
