Some people, as they get older, become more and more withdrawn, while others, as they get older, become more and more casual.

I have lived a lifetime of rules and regulations, and I don't have many days to live, so I naturally become free and easy, otherwise I always feel panicked.

At least

In Lao Dao's view,

It is also a great joy in life to meet an old brother in Pingshui, drink some wine and eat some peanuts.

"Brother, your body looks so tough."

The old man said with some envy,

At this age, it's not as rich as anyone else, and no one has children or anything, it's just more than the body.

If I can live longer than you, I can be better than you!

Just now, when the old man was watching the door outside, he heard the movement of the old road leading to the sewer inside.

Most of the people who come to this secret alley are middle-aged and elderly, after all, the prostitutes inside are also old masters, and young people will not come here.

Others came in in a hurry and left in a hurry, and the comparison with the length of time of the old way shows the gap.

"Hey, just exercise more often, let me tell you, with my physical fitness, even if it's a group of ghosts standing in front of me,

I don't have the slightest fear!

I'm not afraid that they'll take my life. ”

Lao Dao said and patted his thin chest hard,

These words,

He said it with confidence!

"Envy, old brother." The old man took a sip of wine, smacked his lips, and sighed: "I'm old, no, I'm still a little senile and demented."

Hell, I know that one day I stupidly walked out on my own and lost myself.

You say, if you leave it on the street, it's okay, there are always people watching you, something happens, no one dares to help, someone in the nightclub calls the police and calls an ambulance or something.

If you run to the wilderness, you won't even have a person to collect the corpse, and you don't know which wild cat and wild dog will eat it, hehe. ”

"Alzheimer's?" Lao Dao was stunned for a moment, "Then you still come out to do things?" ”

"Why don't you do anything, it's a day to be locked up at home, and it's a day to come out, right?"

The two of them had a drink,

The bitterness that belongs to the elderly is rippling in the wine.

"That's it, it's almost evening anyway, what about me, I'm going to fry the two dishes again, let's make do with it here, what do you think?"

"Cheng, then I'll be cheeky and wait."

The old man stood up and walked into the kitchen.

This is a two-bedroom pattern, that is, two bedrooms and one living room, the area is 60 square meters, it is very narrow, and the kitchen is even smaller.

"You're living alone, aren't you?" Lao Dao asked.

"Yes, I live alone, I don't bother to rent it out, I live alone, quiet, although the place is a little smaller."

"If you live alone, it's not too small, those young people are drifting in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, and the place where they live is really small."

"No, I heard that the rent has to be raised recently, and it's not easy."

After a while, the old man came out and said, "I'll go downstairs to pluck some green onions in the vegetable garden and come back, old brother, you can sit here first and then eat some wine, wait a minute." ”

"Hard work."

The old man walked out of the room and went out.

Lao Dao went to the bathroom, happily put a handful of water, and when he came out, he pushed open the bedroom door and looked, this bedroom was empty, there was no bed in it, but there was a large freezer.

It's like the kind of freezer in a small shop that sells cold drinks, lying in the corner with an electric mile plugged in.

The house was cleaned and spotless.

When it was convenient for Lao Dao before, I saw a set of things such as fragrance and disinfectant in the toilet.

This old brother is really a particular person in life,

It's almost as good as his own cleanliness boss.

Lao Dao remembered that the boss also put a freezer on the second floor of the bookstore in the past, but the boss's freezer was very scary, it was the kind of freezer used to hold dead people.

For a long time, the boss slept there, of course, because of the boss's own special physique, he was the only one who could sleep without fear of freezing to death.

If Lao Zhang and Xiao Lori sleep in the freezer, don't wake them up for breakfast the next day, and prepare for their funeral directly.

However, later the boss had Yingying, and the ice coffin did not move to the new store on South Street.

Well, in this regard,

The old way is also understanding,

scold

Man.

Push open the door to the second room,

Lao Dao was stunned for a moment,

There was only one mat on the floor.

There was no TV, nothing else, it couldn't have been easier.

Lao Dao touched his chin,

This old man's life is quite clear,

No wonder to Alzheimer's,

If I live here, I have to get dementia.

Thinking about it this way, Lao Dao suddenly felt that he lived in a bookstore, and he was frightened by something every now and then.

Hell the day before yesterday, I saw a hanger yesterday,

I'll see you the day after tomorrow or something,

often stimulated,

It can also prevent Alzheimer's disease.

Closing the doors of the two rooms, Lao Dao walked to the door and looked out, why did the old brother go to pluck a green onion and not come back for so long?

Then

A woman carrying a plastic bag came up from the entrance of the stairs below.

The layout of this shop is like this, the ground floor is a shop, the pedicure shop is also one of them, and the upper floor is full of residents.

Old man, this house is on the third floor.

"You are?" The woman looked at Lao Dao with some confusion.

"I don't live here, I'm a guest at a friend's house."

"That old man is your friend." The woman was surprised.

"yes, what's wrong?"

"That old man is very eccentric, he sits at the mouth of the alley and plays chess all day, and he is not seen out much."

"People are getting old."

Lao Dao said that he understood, knowing that he had Alzheimer's disease, and he was still wandering around, which was the water in his brain.

"What about others?" The woman asked.

"Go down and pluck the onions."

"Cooking at home?"

"That's right."

"Hehe, it's not strange for you to say it's strange, I haven't seen him go out to buy vegetables, but he seems to have eaten well, and sometimes when he goes upstairs, he can smell the smell of meat from his house here."

"Hey, hey."

When the woman had finished gossiping, she went upstairs.

Lao Dao went back to the house, sat down at the table, and began to peel peanuts.

During this period, Zhang Yanfeng sent him a WeChat message, asking him where he was and he was going to come to find him.

This scared the old man into a trembling,

He is not afraid that Lao Zhang will kill his relatives and arrest him, and when the time comes, he will have to let the boss come to the police station with 5,000 yuan to collect people.

But Lao Dao doesn't want to drive a police car and run around here, and it's not good to frighten the sisters below.

Therefore, when the news was seen, Lao Dao simply did not rush to reply.

Two sips of wine,

The door was pushed open, and the old man returned, holding a handful of green onions in his hand.

"I've been waiting for a long time, I'm going to cook the dishes, and let you taste my craftsmanship, brother."

The old man went to the first room, and when he came back, he had something in his hand, as if it were meat.

The old way didn't pay attention to it,

After a while, there was a smell from the kitchen.

"Hmm!"

Lao Dao rubbed his hands,

I'm looking forward to it.

About half an hour later,

One portion of braised pork, one portion of stir-fried pork slices, salt fried meat, and a pot of bone broth,

It was placed on the table.

Seeing a table of meat,

Lao Dao was stunned for a moment,

"Brother, I now know how you got to be demented."

Eat so greasy every day,

Except that meat is still meat,

Groove,

You don't have dementia who has dementia?

"Hehe, when I was a child, my family was poor, so I wanted to eat meat, but I couldn't eat it.

Now that I have the conditions, I don't have a few years to live, so I just throw off my arms and eat hard, God knows if I will be poor in the next life, right?

Mao and Xi also said at the beginning that eating braised pork replenishes their brains. ”

"That's right."

Lao Dao sandwiched a piece of meat and ate it.

The meat is delicious,

Fat but not greasy,

(o゜▽゜)o☆

It's so delicious!!

The old way is so cool to eat,

Feast,

I don't have to eat, I don't have to cook, I just eat meat,

Finally, I drank three bowls of broth,

I just feel extremely satisfied.

patted his stomach,

Lao Dao sighed:

"Happy, comfortable, strong enough!"

The old man picked up the wine glass and touched it with Lao Dao, and the two of them drank it all, and he also finished eating.

"Brother, it's a pity that you don't go out to be a cook, the chefs in my company are not as good as you."

"Yo, brother, you still run a company?"

The old man was a little surprised, and immediately asked.

"That's right, if you start a company, the store is on South Street."

"South Street, that's amazing." The old man exclaimed.

In the eyes of authentic Tongcheng people, South Street is the most prosperous area in the center of Tongcheng, where you can open a storefront, and the rent alone is scary enough.

"It's not profitable, it's losing, it's all guys who don't make people and don't ghosts, it's sad."

"Hehe, too, the current business is not good, and it is not easy to find down-to-earth employees."

"No, the employees in the store are lazier than the other, and if I don't look at it, if I don't smoke it behind me with a whip, they will dare to bask in the sun and drink tea every day under my nose.

It's really hard for me to be the boss. ”

"Against your subordinates, you have to teach a good lesson, and you have to set up the rules."

"Not really."

"It's not easy, I heard that you had no relatives and no reason, but you actually opened a company, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, you are also interesting, how did you come here to consume?

Based on your income, you shouldn't be able to come here.

If something happens, your store staff will have to die in a hurry, right? ”

"Who called me this mouthful, the girls in the club are really young, but I can't do it, all of them are my granddaughter's age, and even my great-granddaughter can do it, I really can't do it."

And

We're all at this age, how many impulses and needs do you say?

It's nothing more than trying to find a solace,

Find someone who is considerate, talk, chat, don't you say? ”

"That's it."

The old man nodded,

But he sighed silently,

look

Somewhat disappointed.
