Chapter 352: Childhood Friend
When Guoyu was a child, he had an experience of going to the countryside.
This is something that is not known to his well-known friends, and this experience is also related to Zheng Ying's intention to be deceived this time.
In his youth, Guoyu had a heart to be a "gentleman".
As the saying goes: if you are good, you will help the world, and if you are poor, you will be good alone.
But his father doesn't seem to have this kind of thought, when Guoyu was young, his impression of his father was that he was an authentic trader.
"My dad sells goods, buys cheaply from others, and then adds some money to sell to whoever wants it." Guoyu said to his peers in the countryside.
They all felt that Guoyu was a young master, a big young master.
As the boss's son, he must not worry about eating and drinking.
"Guoyu, go home for dinner!" Grandma was sifting cowpeas under the big tree at the entrance of the village, and it seemed that smoke was rising from the house in the distance, and she knew that her grandfather had cooked a good meal for her little grandson.
"Oh, here we are!" Guoyu trotted and walked to her grandmother's side, and didn't forget to turn around and greet her friends: "It's going to be dark in a while, do you still come out to play after eating?" ”
The big head waved his hand: "No, my fish pond always steals fish at night, and I have to help my father watch the fish." ”
The thin monkey smirked: "I can come out, where are we going to play, aren't you scared at night?" ”
"Afraid of what? We didn't do anything wrong, but the man who stole his fish was afraid of it. ”
……
Back at home, my grandmother and grandfather lived alone, with children under their knees, and my uncle was far away, and he seemed to be a truck driver engaged in transportation, and he was only at home for a few days a month all year round.
The mother got married, and because the relationship between the father and the mother had not yet been clarified, the two of them fought a lawsuit in the city of Menghai City.
According to my grandfather's words, my mother is an inauthentic woman, and it is your mother who is sorry for your father.
But Guoyu doesn't understand why a woman who is willing to marry that kind of ugly man, give birth to children for him, and run the house thriftily all day long will be sorry for him.
As everyone knows, it is my mother who is tired of the big boss running the train every day, but this does not become a reason for my mother to get acquainted with other men outside.
At this time, Guoyu didn't understand this.
He only knew that in the next few days, his mother also came, because he lost the lawsuit, and his mother left the house, but from the perspective of human feelings, Guoyu awarded his mother, and his father would pay a certain amount of child support every month before he became an adult.
The feeling of chaos is because my mother lives in my grandfather's house all day and sleeps a lot.
Knowing that the thin monkey is getting thinner and thinner, Guoyu knows that the thin monkey lives alone, and his parents are far away.
But the grandparents of the thin monkey died a long time ago, and he could only follow the neighbor's house to eat.
But these days, the skinny monkey only burns gnocchi at home.
"Monkey, come to my house, I don't eat much, you come to me, you can eat to your heart's content." Guoyu warmly invited the thin monkey to eat with him, and after a week, the neighbor who was asked to take care of the thin monkey still did not come back.
Until the thin monkey and Guoyu, that day in autumn, the two set up tents on the river dam, and the news of bad news came from the village.
"Hey, let's set up a tent here, no one here comes, if the adults beat us one day, you can come here for the night." The skinny monkey smiled.
In the past few days, his face has a bloody color, and there is a red light, no longer thinking about the sallow face like a few days ago, like a half-dead person.
"Don't you go to school?" Guoyu asked.
The monkey shook his head: "Adults like money, they go to make money, tell me to stay at home, I am nine years old, you look at the big head, he is the same age as me, he is in the second grade, but I can't write yet." ”
Guoyu pressed the monkey's shoulder: "Do you want me to teach you!" I'm okay at studying, at least literate. ”
Set up a tent, in order to prevent one day from getting angry with adults, come here to hide and spend the night.
The monkey's parents are not there, who is he angry with?
The monkey said that the neighbors go out every night and come back to sleep during the day, but in fact, they go out far away, and the gate of the yard is locked, and they are sleeping during the day! They have people in the family who just don't want me to eat.
"Why are they like this? Didn't your parents ask them? Isn't it okay to give money? ”
Guoyu thought that his father's methods were popular everywhere.
But the monkey said, give food, eat as much food, give double, don't care about the farmland at home, and give the neighbor's land for nothing, so that he can eat and drink at their house, and he doesn't have to give anything.
As for why he is angry with adults, he is not talking about his parents, but people from the neighborhood.
"Their house, when they go to the grave of the dead, they have straw men or something, televisions, cows, horses, and beautiful women and servants, a handful of straw, a handful of straw, tied up, smeared with paste, pasted with colored paper, and one can be sold for a lot of money!"
When the monkey said this, Guoyu didn't know anything, because he hadn't seen these things in the city, he just asked, "Is it a wreath?" ”
"There are wreaths, but there are also things that are burned by the dead, I don't know, who said that this can't be done during the day, and at night, it seems that you have to avoid the sun, because those colored papers, the sun will fade after a long time."
Someone from the village came running and shouted, "Hey, you two, who is that, monkey, your fat aunt is back, don't you want to take a look?" ”
The monkey was stunned for a moment and glanced at Guoyu.
Guoyu also asked in a low voice, "What do you call it back?" Don't you say that the door of their house is locked, and they have been tying paper people in the yard? ”
The monkey lowered his head: "I thought they deliberately didn't give me food to eat, so they avoided me." ”
With that, the monkey ran away.
Guoyu followed closely behind, and the adult took the monkey's hand and asked as he ran, "Isn't that the nephew who added it?" ”
"Well, my good buddy! What happened to the fat aunt's house? ”
The adult shouted in a low voice: "Shhh It's really hell, their children were also killed,, poured mold for eight lifetimes. Ay? Don't you little cub eat at their house every day? ”
"Oh, I've been making noodles by myself for a few days, the chopsticks are on top of the gnocchi, and the gnocchi is burned, and I have lived at Guoyu's grandfather's house for the past two days."
The monkey and the adult ran as fast as they could, and Guoyu was soon left behind.
When Guoyu ran home, his grandparents saw this, pulled him and stuffed him into the house, and reprimanded him accusatorically: "My little ancestor, you can't play with monkeys in the future, his life is not good, unlucky!" Mom and Dad died outside, and now you see, Liu Fatzi's family, who was good to him for eating and drinking, has also suffered! ”
Before the disaster, Guoyu would never have thought of anything at that time.
Until the man who had a good relationship with his mother came to the village to pick up his mother, Guoyu was taken back to the city of Menghai City by his stepfather and mother.
After several twists and turns, one day many years later, that is, when Guoyu was preparing to go to college.
Waiting at the station, the train has not yet arrived, there are several empty tracks, and from this side of the platform, you can see the opposite platform.
There was a man about the same size as Guoyu over there, smirking and waving his hand in this direction.
Guoyu felt familiar, but he didn't know who he was, couldn't name him, or read it wrong.
But the man pointed to his side, and Guoyu saw that this guy who was smirking at himself had a wooden man standing next to him.
He also turned around, showed Guoyu a large box on his back, and then held up his horn in his hand and shouted to this side: "Are you going back to your hometown this year?" I'll put on a puppet show for you! ”
"Huh? What the? Guoyu frowned.
Suddenly, the guy on the other side, following the appearance of a monkey, looked around, and then turned a few times in place, vividly, like a monkey.
Guoyu shouted: "Towards the inside? You're looking in, right? Monkey! Is that you, monkey? ”
The man on the other side smirked and scratched his head, tears drenching his eyes.
