Day 16
On the sixteenth day, Peng Cheng came out of the detention center.
Bei Bei didn't catch up to pick him up on the day he came out, and Peng Cheng deliberately didn't tell her in advance, but it happened that she happened to be on duty that day, and everything seemed to be unconscious. At noon, Peng Cheng called, he said that Zhang Chao's boss wanted to invite him to a meal, and he could come back after eating, and it would probably take the evening to arrive, and then Bei Bei was sure that he had come out safely.
"Oh!" the girl answered, a little dumbfounded, and she wanted him to come back at once, to see him, but she said nothing. Throughout the day, Beibei's mood was never calm, and she wasn't really thinking about anything, anyway, it was messy, as if something was disturbing her, if she wasn't at work, she was afraid that she couldn't wait any longer, and she would definitely take a long-distance bus to pick him up.
On the second day of the visit, Peng Cheng was arraigned, but after that, he never mentioned it to Beibei, and Beibei never asked, until it was confirmed that he could come out, he only said that it was okay. Regarding the details of the arraignment, he never mentioned it, he just said that he thought that he could open meat for his daughter-in-law if he came out, and then he really came out.
Bei Bei met Peng Cheng the day after he came out, it was the last day of the first year, and the next day was Chinese New Year's Eve. The sky was as cold as the egg whites of fresh goose eggs, always revealing a little cool blue and white, and it was very open. Peng Cheng stood alone on the edge of the inconspicuous green belt next to the road that Bei Bei had to pass to go home, smoking, and when he saw Bei Bei getting off the bus, he raised his hand and lowered his head.
——
"You're back. She ran across the road at a gallop, and the sun cast a little dappled light on the asphalt, and when people moved, the light also moved, and it was very beautiful. The girl was like a lonely swallow, suddenly excited, and rushed straight towards the other half of her heart, full of hope, and ran to the front, but she paused in a green way.
"When did you let my brother do it?" Peng Cheng threw away the cigarette and spit out the smoke ring to the side. He smiled brightly, laughing so much that he couldn't hold the corners of his mouth, he finally didn't need to talk through the glass, and he didn't need to pull it deliberately, as if the two of them were still in the same world.
"Let my brother do it, who are you, I'm older than you. The girl wiped her eyelids vigorously and looked disgusted.
"Are you at home for the New Year tomorrow?" Peng Cheng smiled, but did not expose the woman's duplicity, he led Bei Bei to the direction of her house, across the woods, where he was very familiar.
"Well, yes!"
"Then can we see each other on the first day of the new year? I'm alone for the New Year this year. Peng Cheng seemed to be quite confident, his arm wrapped around Beibei's waist and tightened it hard. The girl pursed her lips and lowered her head, but there was no expression at this time, and after a while, seeing that Bei Bei didn't answer, Peng Cheng seemed a little embarrassed, and he said again: "I'm not at home, and you're not thin! Look at this meat." ”
"Well, what do you want to eat when you celebrate the New Year on the first day of junior high school?" replied rhythmically, and the young man was a little stunned. He thought that this question was abrupt, and Bei Bei would not say anything, it turned out that she was......
"Mom's pork feet. Peng Cheng tilted his head slightly, as if he remembered the taste: "Daughter-in-law, will the old lady sometimes think of me?"
"I don't want to, she annoys you when she mentions you, and she hates it so much that the roots of her teeth itch. Bei Bei deliberately exaggerated the facts, but Peng Cheng understood her and her mother's boredom.
He nodded: "This old lady, I miss her if I'm fine, she doesn't want me yet." ”
——
After sending Bei Bei away, Peng Cheng walked to the bathhouse alone. The wind blew in all directions, piercing through his thin garments. The young man was full of guilt, he came back this time, and he helped sit in the fifteen-day detention, but he did not get the two thousand yuan that he was scheduled to give. Zhang Chao's boss, that's all it takes! Could it be that the people in the Northeast pretend to be more forced and do less work? Why can't they keep up with their words? Damn, let the rich people play again.
Bei Bei never asked him about money, which made Peng Chengqing feel a little relieved, but he felt even more unable to face her. She will definitely not ask, in her eyes, as long as he Peng Chengren can come back, everything else should be trivial. Peng Cheng pondered in his heart, probably the girl had forgotten that he was there for two thousand yuan! Although they always quarreled endlessly over gambling and money, only she would not give up on him at any time.
When they met in the morning, Peng Cheng opened his mouth twice and wanted to tell Beibei, but he didn't say it, he promised her all the money, but now it seems that it will not work. Seriously, he felt that Bei Bei knew everything, and he didn't mention it on purpose. I heard that the money was spent by Zhang Chao when he was out doing errands to get himself, not only did he spend the two thousand, but he also spent an additional one thousand before he was released as scheduled. But Peng Cheng didn't believe these words, he could never forget what happened on the day of the arraignment, there is no policeman who does not abuse lynching, Bei Bei is right, if he wants to get out, he can only save himself, those who are tortured into tricks do not understand the law, do not know how to use the law, and are scared by this gang of bandits in uniform, he is not honest in the first place, so he will naturally not be frightened.
When Peng Cheng walked out of the detention center and saw Zhang Chao driving his boss's car to pick him up, Peng Cheng understood that the money was blind. Fortunately, Peng Cheng felt that the money was blind, and his brother, who had cut the bottom, would never be so generous as to bring him the whole Lan Liqun, and the fifteen-day food and drink supply was all complete, and he even gave him a few hundred yuan.
"Second child, don't be stingy inside, suffer less crimes. ”
Zhang Chao is not such a person, he Peng Cheng knows that his sister-in-law has to go outside to pick up a guest every once in a while and make some money, not to mention his younger brother with a foreign surname who has been given out a long time ago and has no centimeters or land. If Zhang Chao didn't deduct this money himself, or the boss didn't give it at all, in short, what it was, it just couldn't reach his own hands.
Yesterday, I came back directly, Peng Cheng was dragged by a period of regret in his heart, and he felt uncomfortable with his heart. Isn't it a bit of a few hundred dollars not to gamble? The young man was also upset, I don't know why, at that juncture yesterday, he didn't get two thousand, and he felt that the hundreds of dollars in his hand didn't seem like money.
What now?
Do you still want Bei Bei to borrow it? Thinking of this, Peng Cheng's heart tightened suddenly. He didn't want Bei Bei to borrow money, she would cry every time he borrowed money, he couldn't stand it, it seemed that Bei Bei was getting away from him little by little, he couldn't stand it without her, he felt more sorry for her to cry, only she Wen Beibei could make him feel distressed like this.
Besides, Bei Bei may not necessarily borrow it, and she can't figure out how angry she will be! She will probably say, "I don't have it, I can't borrow it, why don't you borrow it yourself." Peng Cheng laughed out loud, only Bei Bei can make herself angry, this girl doesn't know where it came from, Peng Cheng believes that he must be angry with Bei Bei in the end in this life, it must be.
With so much debt, what is he going to do?
The young man was so troubled that he didn't want to go to the bathhouse, and walked back and forth around the building. Peng Cheng has moved back and forth since he was a child, and his memory of where is the same, he mostly remembers the inside of the house more, and the outside of the house, passing by one by one, is not deeply impressed. When you can see it clearly, there is a small store in front of you.
Not far from the building, a small child turned out, blue and white school uniform, wearing him like a sack, he was carrying a schoolbag, and the zipper of the schoolbag didn't know if it was broken or what, grinning, seeing that the books in it were rolled up, he was yellow, very old.
Peng Cheng tentatively shouted at Ma Jiahang, and the little monster turned around.
