Chapter 5 Rely on You
Ye Liang stared at the child who walked in: "I don't buy newspapers.?" With {dream} small ◢.1a"
The child's appearance was more than ten years old, his eyebrows were clear, and he was wearing a coarse cloth with patches and washed cleanly, which made Ye Liang feel good.
"You can help people here...... Avenge. ”
Chu Qi plucked up the courage to ask, he firmly believed that Mr. Zhaonan would not lie to him.
"Revenge?" Ye Liang looked at him from top to bottom: "Child, how old are you, you know what hatred and resentment are, do you think you were bullied by the neighbor's children and beat him back?" I'm busy playing from afar. ”
In order to show that he was busy, Ye Liang also pretended to pick up a feather duster and dust around, and the feather duster swept to a plum bottle on a desk, and a slick mouse came out of the bottle.
Chu Qi was startled and took a step back sharply: "Mouse! ”
The mouse seemed to understand his words, jumped down directly from the desk, jumped in front of Chu Qi in a few steps, stared at him with wide eyes, Chu Qi was so frightened that he was at a loss, and suddenly the mouse stretched out his paws, took out a peanut from his mouth, and ate it with relish.
Chu Qi looked at the fluffy tail behind the rat again, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, thank God, this is not a mouse, it is a squirrel.
Ye Liang Ge Jiao smiled, pointed at the squirrel and shouted: "Look, scare people, go and eat." I mean, what's your name? ”
"Chu Qi, my name is Chu Qi, I have a friend who fell from the stairs and died, I want to help him get revenge."
"Oh, the seventh day of the first month, you don't have the courage to have a needle nose, do you know what I need to exchange for helping people to take revenge here?" Ye Quan asked with a smile, she understood, this child must have been brought by Zhaonan.
"I ...... There is no money. Chu Qi hesitated and patted his chest, "I have a life, and this life can be exchanged for you." ”
"Life? Life is worth a few dollars, there can be a road down in this city every day, how can you get a few lives. Ye Limit sneered, and the little squirrel finished eating the peanuts, jumped onto the table again, and stared at Ye Limit thoughtfully. Sure enough, the next moment Ye Liang was angry: "Damn, you swallowed all over the place!" ”
As soon as the squirrel saw Ye Limit chasing after him, he jumped up and ran to the inner room, Ye Limit carried a feather duster to chase it, and listened to the thump thump in the inner house, and after a while, Ye Limit came out triumphantly carrying a feather duster, but saw that the seventh day of the first month had already carried a broom and swept the ground clean.
Ye Liang looked at it quietly, and his words were still mean: "It's useless, don't think that if you please me like this, I can help you." ”
"I'm not very bold, but Miss Ye, I'm a man, um......" Chu Qi patted his head, "I will be able to grow into a man in a few years, I will do what I say, I can sign a contract, and my life will be given to you." ”
Ye Quan frowned slightly, she guessed that this child was attracted by Zhao Nan, so she took out the contract, looked at Chu Qi and asked: "It was Zhao Nan who mentioned me to you, since Zhao Nan promised to help you, why do you want to sign a contract with me?" Hitch your own soul in vain. ”
"Mr. Zhaonan said that he would help the pillar find out the truth, but I know that this time the matter must be very serious, I have sold newspapers for four years, and the first time I was robbed of a newspaper by the police, this also shows that the death of the pillar must be unknown, I have to do something, I can't rely on Mr. Zhaonan for everything, except for this life, I have nothing, so I signed a contract with you, as long as I help the pillar to avenge, my life is yours."
Chu Qi plucked up his courage and finished speaking in one breath, and then stared at the woman opposite with wide eyes.
I saw that the woman smiled slightly, stretched out her hand, and the red nails on her fingertips were delicate.
Ye Liang beckoned to him: "Good boy, come on, sign a contract." ”
The seventh day of the first month was originally full of courage, but Ye Quan's beckoning action reminded him of the ghost stories he heard when he was a child, and those goblin female ghosts also beckoned to people like this, right? waved and beckoned to be tricked in the past, but thinking of the scene yesterday afternoon, under the warm and bright sun, the pillar waved goodbye to him, Chu Qi hesitated and walked over: "How do you sign?" ”
"Your life is mine after signing, figured it out? Is it worth it for a child who meets in the water? ”
Ye Liang's eyes were rolling, and he didn't hesitate at all when he looked at the kid opposite, and replied firmly: "It's worth it." I'm for hope, if the pillar dies silently like this, there will be no hope at all, I live for hope, no matter what I encounter, I have to live with hope, maybe, this is the ideal. ”
Teenage kids talking about ideals here?
Ye Quan sneered: "Okay, little guy, I told you in advance, don't cry and shout that I lied to you when the time comes." ”
When signing, Ye Liang looked at the seventh day of the first month and wrote the three words of the seventh day of the first month, nodded and said, "I didn't expect you to still recognize the words." ”
"Selling newspapers every day, I learned by myself."
As soon as Zhao Nan entered the door at night, the squirrel pier jumped on his shoulder and squeaked for a long time, as if he had been greatly wronged.
Zhao Nan stroked Dunzi's little head and asked, "Hey, I'm not at home, are you bullying Dunzi?" ”
"This squirrel, edible and cunning, really follows the shape of the owner, how dare I bully it, but you, why are you so good at deceiving a child?"
"Kid? You mean the seventh day of junior high school came looking for you? ”
"Don't pretend, it's not that he can know so much as you say?"
"You signed a contract with him?"
Zhao Nan asked anxiously.
"I signed it, and the meat delivered to the door, if I don't eat it for nothing, I don't eat it, how can I know that I am distressed now? Don't worry, since I signed a contract with Chu Qi, I will definitely fulfill it, and this time I will definitely try to help you find out the truth about the death of the pillar. ”
Ye Liang suddenly stretched out his hand and lifted the squirrel from Zhao Nan's shoulder: "Little villain, look where you are running." The bottles and cans are full of peanut shells, chestnut shells, you are going to die. ”
Dunzi squeaked and turned back to Zhaonan for help. Zhao Nan spread his hands helplessly: "This really can't help you, these bottles and cans are all cleaned by me, you are so naughty, how much trouble has you caused me." ”
Zhao Nan resigned himself to check the garbage in the antiques on the shelves, and said while carrying the jar and digging out the peanut skin: "Black Peony's real name is Liu Jinling, twenty-three years old this year, ten years ago from the countryside of Suzhou to Shanghai to ask for a living, I asked her about her in the countryside through a friend at the Suzhou Police Station. ”
"Wait, Black Peony is twenty-three years old?"
Ye Liang threw the pier aside and turned around and asked, "Twenty-three years old, that pillar looks like a teenager." If she is really Zhuzi's own mother, is she a little younger at this age? ”
In this era, although there are things like getting married in more than ten years, if Liu Jinling is twenty-three years old and Zhuzi is ten years old, then give birth to a child at the age of thirteen? Married at twelve? That's a bit of a sin.
Zhao Nan was stunned for a moment: "Yes, maybe the pillar is mistaken, the black peony is not his biological mother, so the black peony has always refused to recognize each other, it seems that he must go to Suzhou for a walk." ”
