Chapter 17: Life is not easy

Listening to Zhong Liangyi's analysis, Sister-in-law Liu suddenly brightened, "No wonder...... No wonder when we used to play mahjong, Tangtang always stared at us from behind, and didn't say a word, did she secretly start learning mahjong from then on? ”

San'er was surprised, "So Tangtang has Einstein's IQ?" ”

"I didn't say that," Zhong Liang quickly clarified, "I just want to express that her IQ should be very high, and her memory and learning ability are very strong, which is different from us ordinary people." ”

Hearing Zhong Liang's analysis of himself, Ye Tang looked at him, in fact, aside from autism, what he said was basically right. Listening to his conversation, Ye Tang felt that he was not quite like a migrant worker who was purely moving bricks......

I guess it's a contractor, right?

After all, how can migrant workers come out to play mahjong during working hours?!

It's noon, the smell of rice wafts from every house in the alley, and there is no decent kitchen fume system in the shantytown, and it should be said that many people don't even have a serious kitchen at home. If there is a kitchen, the oil smoke will be discharged out of the window; There is no kitchen, like Daddy Zhou's house, cooking directly outside the house.

Lost the money, but the meal still had to be eaten, a few players left the mahjong room before and after, and went back to their respective homes, and the three sons and sister-in-law Liu who owed Ye Tang money agreed with Cen Jin that the money would be transferred to her before the afternoon of the same day.

Cen Jin is also going to start making food, she is in a super good mood, Ye Tang makes money, and she has a sense of pride. She left Ye Tang to have lunch at her house, "Calculate the time, it is estimated that your grandmother will also get off work, so let's eat together." ”

Today is Monday, Cen Yannan went to school, class or absenteeism, who knows, anyway, before Ye Tang and Zhao Zhenfang set off to the hospital in the morning to remove the stitches, she was on the edge of the bedroom window and saw Cen Yannan wearing a school uniform and carrying a schoolbag.

Whether he is at school or not, he will not come back to eat at noon, there is a cafeteria in eighty-seven, and there are many fly restaurants around the school gate.

Zhao Zhenfang's morning shift starts at three o'clock in the morning, eight hours of work, the old man has slow legs and feet, usually comes back at about half past eleven in the morning, if Ye Tang goes to school, she will make a little gruel and steamed buns by herself to deal with a meal; If Ye Tang is also at home, she will make food for the child.

But today she arrived home at almost half past twelve.

During this period, Cen Jin called her and told her that she didn't need to come back to cook in a hurry, she would cook their lunch, and she asked Zhao Zhenfang to come directly to the mahjong room after work.

Cen Jin cooked the meal early according to Zhao Zhenfang's usual time, but Zhao Zhenfang did not come back on time as in the past. Cen Jin and Ye Tang sat on the bench at the door of the mahjong room and waited for her.

Seeing Zhao Zhenfang staggering in their field of vision, Cen Jin breathed a sigh of relief and immediately greeted him, "Why did you come back so late today?" I thought something had happened to you! ”

Cleaners work on the road, cars come and go, and it is not easy to see the news that cleaners are hit and killed while working.

The section of the road where Zhao Zhenfang works involves a section of the city center transportation hub with a large traffic flow, with eight lanes in both directions, and one side of this road is the gate of the "Haina Baichuan" community.

Zhao Zhenfang sighed and said to Cen Jin, "I'm really sorry to let you wait for me." ”

Ye Tang saw that her face was very tired and helpless, obviously after removing the stitches in the hospital, after learning from the doctor that she was fine, the expression on the old man's face was elated.

Her eyes were slightly cold, and she asked her, "Grandma, is someone bullying you?" ”

"I'm fine," Zhao Zhenfang has been an introvert since she was young, and she was wronged and suffered, but she silently endured it in her heart and endured it herself.

Ye Tang is not, especially after experiencing the huge changes in the death of her parents, her personality has undergone earth-shaking changes, and anyone who dares to hurt her and the people she cares about, she will repay her.

She said to Zhao Zhenfang, "If you don't say it, I won't eat today." ”

After saying that, she turned around and walked outside the mahjong room, not knowing where she was going. Sure enough, Zhao Zhenfang took her hand and coaxed her to say, "Just say it, you have to eat obediently." ”

"Well," Ye Tang looked at her with a pair of dark eyes, "After you finish speaking, I'll eat again." ”

Zhao Zhenfang had a headache, so she had to say, "When I answered Xiao Cen's call, I was cleaning on the side of the road, and as soon as the call ended, a black car was parked in front of me, and a little girl opened the window and suddenly threw a ball of paper outside. I was so angry that the trash can was only a few steps away from the car, and she didn't even want to walk that way. I was angry and said, 'How can you be able to ride in such a good car, why don't you have a little education?' ’”

"And then?" Ye Tang's voice already carried a trace of anger.

And then she ......"

Zhao Zhenfang wanted to speak and stopped, and finally told her and Cen Jin: The girl opened the car window and scolded her for being a "stinky old woman", and scolded her, Zhao Zhenfang would not fight for a scolding sentence and fight with a child.

But then, as if deliberately taking revenge on her, the girl threw out a lot of paper balls from the car, which were very light paper balls made of clean paper towels, and the car next to her drove over and carried the paper balls to the farther lane.

Zhao Zhenfang had to risk her life to pick up those paper balls, during which countless cars were interfered with by her, and several cars braked sharply and almost hit her, these drivers saw her as a cleaner and an old man, quite pitiful, and did not honk her horn to urge her.

Rao was so, it still took her nearly an hour longer than usual to dispose of the garbage that the girl deliberately threw away, which is why she returned late. And the black car with the girl on it had long since left.

After listening to Zhao Zhenfang's narration, Cen Jin, who was already hot-tempered, was even more angry, "Why are you picking up paper balls!" She throws it if she wants to, you don't care what she does! ”

"I don't care about her, the leader wants to take care of me. After she threw it, she could leave, but that road was the main road, and it was the area I was responsible for, and someone on it would check it when I changed shifts, and when I saw so many paper balls, the leader would definitely deduct my money, at least 100 yuan, then I would have done it in vain in the past two days," Zhao Zhenfang's old tone was full of helplessness and hardship tempered by a difficult life.

Ye Tang asked, "Where did she throw it?" ”

"At the door of 'Hai Na Baichuan', it is estimated that her home is in that community," Zhao Zhenfang thought of Ye Tang's whimsical words before moving to "Hai Na Baichuan", and her heart was even more bitter, that girl looked about the same age as Ye Tang, with a delicate appearance, and she was wearing the school uniform of No. 1 Middle School, and her expression was full of the superiority of a rich man.
