(Girls' Literature)

I felt like my heart was filled with warm sunlight all at once. The fresh blood in my heart is flowing. I stood up with a smile. "Come on. I'll help you. I helped Xu Hu and walked forward. It took about ten minutes to walk. We finally came to a row of bungalows. This low-rise bungalow looks like a dilapidated house in disrepair. The years peeled off on the mottled walls. Layers of white powder fade off. Only the ugly cement was exposed. The steel bars on the window lattices are rusty. There are also spider webs hanging on it, I don't know what year or month.

An old man with gray hair. Curled up under the eaves. There was a stove in front of him. He crouched to the side and chopped the pieces of wood with his axe. Split a large piece of wood into small pieces. A small part. Then he picked up the pieces of wood with his wrinkled palms. Throw into the center of the stove.

Burn the wood because it is insufficient. The smoke is unusually large. The smell is very pungent. I couldn't help but cover my nose. Even my eyes almost burst into tears. But the old man over there still squatted steadily. Even though the smoke was coming to his face. There was not the slightest expression of discomfort on his face.

Those wrinkles are like stripes with a special tool. It's as if they're all engraved on their faces. The cloudy eyes and pupils seemed to be shrouded in a layer of dazed gloom and yellow desert. Lips sucked into the mouth. I don't know if it's because of the loss of my teeth. This calmness is really not a day or two of effort. I even doubt his lungs. Do you still have your own air purifier?

But a cloudy tear still flowed from his godless eyes. The intricate lines of the wrinkles spread across the face. An irregular pattern is formed. Oh. His eyes seem to be a little painful.

Xu Hu is estimated to have been cultivated in this environment for a long time. He took the key out of his pocket. Although the smoke drifted into his nostrils. But he still didn't even frown. Wow rub. Looks like they live here. I really want to test my guts. "Xu Hu......" is the old man who is lighting a fire over there. Seeing Xu Hu open his mouth and say hello. The voice was heard. My heart sank.

Uncle, your voice can be a little more terrifying. Oh my God. This was sent by a human being. This is obviously an owl standing on a dead tree in the middle of the night. It's so horrible. "Uncle Wang." Xu Hu answered lightly. The key turned back and forth several times in the keyhole. But the door still won't open. This made Xu Hu a little irritable. This happens quite often, though. But it can be very irritating.

"Isn't that the key?" I asked. Xu Hu shook his head. "This is it. I guess the keyhole is a little rusty inside. You'll have to try a few more times. The words just fell. The key that turns inside the keyhole seems to have a heart. The door opened. "You've been paying more than three days of rent and utilities this month." Uncle Wang looked at Xu Hu. Three fingers like dried bamboo branches stretched out and shook in the air.

"Okay. I know. I'll send it to you in the afternoon. Xu Hu said with some irritation. I walked into the house first. Uncle Wang nodded at me. smiled. There was something horrible about the smile. I hurriedly went into Xu Hu's house. Oops, I'm dripping mom. Just outside the door, I just noticed Uncle Wang's terrifying appearance.

Recklessly, he broke in. It almost killed me. There was a strange smell in Xu Hu's house. The reason why this taste is rather bizarre. is because it is a mixture of multiple flavors. I looked at the coats scattered across the floor. There were even sweaters and unwashed panties and socks. The instant noodle boxes and various packaging bags inside the trash can seem to be piled up into a high mountain.

I let out a hard breath. Just breathing through your mouth. The nasal cavity was slightly opened. His brow furrowed tightly. Oh my God. I've come up with the ingredients for this smell. It's almost certain that it's the smell of dirty laundry. The taste of the leftovers is cold. The smell of the house falling into disrepair because of age. There's even some adrenaline to it. These flavors add up. It makes you want to vomit.

I silently closed my nose again. Just breathing through your mouth. Oh my God. Xu Hu. I really admire you for being in this environment. You can sleep well. It's just a standard single room. There is no bathroom in the house. There seems to be a public toilet on one side of this row of bungalows. I saw it when I was just outside the house. Visually, it looks like it's still a dry toilet.

Belch. This one is a bit heavy. The doorway to the house has a faucet underneath the windowsill. Xu Hu walked outside. opened. The faucet first "poofed" a few times. It's also unclear if it's because it's cold. Or the groundwater source has dried up. So it took half a day to spit out a stream of yellow water. It's like freshly brewed instant coffee.

I was dumbfounded. Is this water really drinkable? I don't think so. If it's for washing your face. Within three days, it is estimated that people will also become terracotta warriors. My body shuddered uncontrollably.

Fortunately, the yellow liquid flowed for a while. Then the water gradually turned white. Xu Hu took a basin and brought it to the house. I went up to help, but he refused. He picked up another electric kettle and filled it with a full one. Take it to the inside of the house. Plugged in. It's boiling water. The kettle hissed. And it rumbled. It looks like this pot is some years old.

"I don't have anything to entertain me with. You're going to have a bite to eat. "He got under the bed. Pulled out a cardboard box. Two bowls of bucket noodles were taken out of it. I was stunned. It stands to reason that Xu Hu shouldn't be so downcast. You must know that he deceived the crystal crystal for a full 100,000 yuan. And this money, Zou Jialiang also gave him a cushion. If you have 100,000 yuan in hand, you must at least rent a house that is a little cleaner and tidier. Why did you live in this place? I eat instant noodles every day.

Xu Hu sat on the bed. I sat down on a small stool next to the bed. When the water is not yet open. He pulled out another cigarette. Pumped up. The smell inside the house was already foul. But add to that the smell of smoke. I think I'd better die. It's really suffocating people in minutes.

"I'm used to smoking. I've always been on my own. But it doesn't matter. If you smell secondhand smoke for a while. You won't get cancer. He said and took two more puffs. I smiled awkwardly. There was no answer. This time. Water boiling on the table. It's almost open. I heard the water bubbling in the jug. Xu Hu stood up. There was an unextinguished cigarette in his mouth. Start making noodles with both hands.

The packaging of the barrel surface is torn open. Add all the seasoning packets and vegetable packets. Add boiling water. Then I heard the sound of the bread being soaked. It's like the sound of a dry sponge swelling rapidly after being immersed in water. After the instant noodles have been washed away by water. I could smell the instant noodles being washed away by the water. Characteristic taste.

"Come on. This is for you to eat. He handed me a bowl. He picked up another bowl and sat on the edge of the bed and devoured it. Watching him eat so deliciously. I didn't have the slightest appetite. I think of the yellow column of water that just came out of the pipe. I lost my appetite for a moment. In desperation. I still ate it. It is also unclear whether it is a psychological effect. I always felt like I had eaten a mouthful of sand. The tooth is terrible.

Xu Hu ate quite fragrant. It seems that he is not eating a boxed lunch. It's a big meal. After eating. The noodle soup was also drunk. He touched his mouth. Shoved the instant noodle box into the trash can that was about to overflow. Maybe there's too much garbage in there. He pressed it hard a few times before he could press it down.

I had to lower my head and eat noodles seriously. "Why did you rent a house like this?" The doubts in my heart were still blurted out by me. Why is that? Besides, the landlord at the door is still an old taro like that. Xu Hu poured the hot water from the kettle into the basin again. With cold water that has just been fetched. Pick up a swarthy towel from the bedside. Soak in a basin of water. Then it was covered on the swollen face on that side.

"Poor. Can't afford to rent a good one. He sniffed. Along with the swollen muscles on the face. Pulled a nerve. He frowned slightly. "Poor." I was amazed. The noodles in the mouth also leaked roughly. "How could he be poor. How can you be poor? "Of course. These are the words that I slowly uttered in my heart. I turned my face sideways. He defrauded people of 100,000 yuan. Why is it that now I don't even live in a kennel.

Xu Hu smiled again. "You must be suspecting me by now. Be. At that time, I defrauded Jingjing of 100,000 yuan. But now I'm basically penniless. Hi. I'll tell you the truth. I used to be a lazy person. That when the money was obtained. I eat, drink, and gamble. It took a lot. There's a little left. I left it to my grandmother. My dad had an accident when I graduated from high school. My mom is nowhere to be found. Husband and wife were originally birds of the same forest. When the catastrophe comes, they fly separately. My grandma is now guarding that empty nest by herself. I had to leave all the money to her. Xu Hu said and sighed.

"Then when did you find out you were sick?" I've already eaten half of the instant noodles. Strangely, the feeling of sand is completely gone. It tastes pretty good.

"Do you remember the last time you and Guo Ziying went to the hospital together? That was the second time I went to check. I was said to be suspicious. However, it was not diagnosed. But there was no inspection that time. I met you, Ziying, and Jingjing. ”
