Zhou Qi was silent for a while and suddenly said, "I know, Mr. Ni, are you at home, I'll see you." ”

"Hmm." I responded with a word and hung up.

I have nothing to say about Zhou Qi, and I just sneered in my heart about his request, when did I still want to be deceived. I want to see what secrets Zhou Qi has to tell.

During the time when Zhou Qi was waiting, I opened my phone and looked at the messages in the past few days.

Most of them are Zhou Qi's call prompts. Interspersed with a text message from my cousin.

"Ni Ge, my brother is getting married, and the date is set for the twenty-eighth of this month."

"Where have you been? No, I won't get married, and you won't come! Who's going to be my best man! ”

"Damn, if you don't show up, my brother will break off relations with you!"

"Come out, come out! Do you want me to shout sesame out or watermelon out! ”

I laughed! This is a person who is about to get off the list, and there is such a serious secondary disease. Gotta be treated!

Then I looked down, and it was Mao Xueying's text message.

"I'm already engaged, two years of appointment, I'm waiting for you. Now I'm going to France to study art. Don't forget me. ”

At the end of the text message was a smiling face, and I could feel the bitterness behind the smile.

And there is also a trace of bitterness in my heart. Mao Xueying was the first woman I saw and belonged to me. Ning Xiang is well-behaved and cute, and she also handed over everything to me.

I've been avoiding this question, but I know that I can't avoid it after all, whether it's Mao Xueying or Ning Xiang. Both of these women are what I am willing to protect with my life. But be in the middle of them and let me make a choice! I don't really know how to choose.

Putting my phone down, I didn't reply to a single message. Maybe sitting quietly like this is the best option.

The doorbell rang twice and was pushed open. Zhou Qi stood at the door with a stubbled beard and looked at me in surprise.

I pointed to the next place and didn't speak.

Zhou Qi gave me a strange look. At this point, it was an indescribable feeling. When they met for the first time, Zhou Qi was very popular. Be in spirits. But today, Zhou Qiyi looks a little down, and I have a strong aura in the eyes of the cycle. This aura made Zhou Qi unconsciously want to bend over.

Zhou Qi walked up to me and stood there a little stiffly, like a subordinate facing his boss.

"Mr. Ni, my parents are in Shanxian County, are you really sure that this matter has something to do with them?" Zhou Qizou frowned, as if he was experiencing a fierce struggle in his heart.

"Okay, let's not talk about it, let's go to Shanxian County! Just visit your parents. ”

I got up and walked out the door. Niu Da saw me come out and immediately opened the car door.

"Go to Shanxian County." After getting in the car with Zhou Qi, I said directly.

Niu Da didn't ask much, just glanced at Zhou Qi strangely, with a hint of contempt in his eyes. Most of the cattle are personal participants in the whole event, and they also know the choice of the cycle. After this incident, Niu Da has completely put Zhou Qi on the blacklist.

Shanxian County is not far from Dongmen City and belongs to the affiliated county seat of Dongmen City, but Shanxian County is located in the southwest corner of Dongmen in the remaining veins of Yandang Mountain. The transportation is not convenient.

The road was bumpy, and it was not until dusk, when the sun was setting, that we arrived at the county seat.

Strangely, Zhou Qi's parents did not live in the county seat, but lived alone in the mountains.

"Mr. Ni, do you want to go into the mountain?" Seeing that the sky was about to get dark, Niu Da asked with some hesitation.

"No need. Find a place to rest first. I shook my head.

Zhou Qi grew up in Shanxian County and is very familiar with this place. I simply asked Zhou Qi to prepare the room, and I walked slowly to the street with Ox.

Although Shanxian County is not big, its development is not up or down. At this time, there are already a lot of food stalls on the street, and the stall owners are busy for the next business.

I randomly chose a cold vegetable stall, Wagyu Beef Da, ordered a fried snail, and roast chicken, and sat down with a few bottles of beer.

"Mr. Ni, do you want me to call Captain Zhou over." Niu Da looked at me and said a little melancholy. For a simple man like him, coming out like this is a bit like eating alone.

I smiled and said meaningfully to Niu Da: "Niu Da, Zhou Qi is no longer the captain, and if he goes back this time, he will leave Dongmen City." And stay away from Zhou Qi in the future, there are many things that you can't get involved. ”

"Ni, Mr. Ni, if that's the case, aren't we going too far?" Niu Da asked.

"Alas!" I sighed and continued: "He provoked the matter himself, and the cause and effect naturally need to be borne by himself. I'm not inclined to be inflammatory, I just don't want to get involved. If I intervene, will I be the right person to cause harm? ”

Niu Da nodded as if he understood, opened the beer and poured it hard. It seems that this is the only way to exude the depression in his heart.

The night is silent, and the lights are shining a little bit on the streets. The seats in the stalls on both sides have been filled one after another.

I had been silent, holding a beer glass, drinking slowly, and looking around with interest, talking or smiling.

Seeing that I didn't speak, Niu Da also picked up the bottle and poured two mouthfuls into his mouth from time to time. The dishes on the table were left out in the cold.

"Go, go, go! Come later, I've just opened! In the midst of this harmonious scene, there was this piercing sound.

A little girl of five or six years old. Dirty, pursed lips, longing to look at the food on the table. But he was so frightened that the stall owner who drove him away had no choice but to go to the distance and stand silently.

I shook my head and patted Niu Da next to me: "Niu Da, take a roast chicken and send it to the little girl." ”

"Alas! Mr. Ni, I didn't see the wrong person. Niu Da stood up honestly and looked at me with respect. After saying that, he turned around and picked up the roast chicken on the stall and sent it over.

"Little sister, take it, don't be afraid! Uncle is not a bad person. The cow carried the roast chicken and brought it to the little girl.

The little girl's eyes lit up suddenly, but she still didn't stretch out her hand, but ducked back in fear.

"Nizi, eat, this uncle is a good person." The stall owner on my side said with pity.

This little girl named Nizi saw that the stall owner was looking at Niu Da, so she took the roast chicken with some trembling, turned around and trotted away.

"Alas! Poor kid! The stall owner shook his head and went back to helping the guests at the table get ready.

"Boss, whose family is this little girl, why does it look like no one takes care of her?" I smiled and asked the stall owner, who was busy.

"Alas! But no, this girl just has no one to take care of! His parents died at an early age, and there was only one grandmother, who was still a crazy old lady, who would be sober for a while, and then come out and curse people everywhere. The boss said with a sigh.

"This Civil Affairs Bureau should have a record! They should also have subsistence, but why does this little girl look like she is very hungry? I continued.

"What a subsistence! The state gave it, after all, the county officials are not as good as the current management. There is also misappropriation from above. At the end of the day, the grandfather and grandson counted on this little thing in the night market to survive, and of course they were hungry for one meal a day. The boss's face was a little ugly. There was obvious anger in his tone.

"The boss laughed, even if the civil affairs don't care, the neighbors will always help." I still smiled in disbelief.

"Foil! Alas! To tell you the truth, I'm this Nizi's neighbor. Their ancestors were also big families in this single county. Later, alas! It's been thirty years! Do not say! The boss seemed to be taboo and closed his mouth, but Zou frowned but stopped paying attention to me.

"Mr. Ni, this little girl and grandchildren are really pitiful, otherwise, you wait for me, I'll send them some money." Niu Da looked at the direction the little girl left and said with some sadness.

"Well, wait, she'll be back." I sighed and took another big sip of beer. The bitter taste suddenly filled my palate.

Five minutes later, the little girl appeared again in the night market. He was dragged over by a scruffy old lady. Holding the roast chicken sent by Niu Da tightly with both hands, his small mouth stubbornly soaked together. Not a word. Tears couldn't help but flow down his face.

"Go and apologize, you actually stole something, go and apologize!" The old lady's voice was loud, even though he looked so thin that almost nothing was left of his skin. Even the rickety waist seems to be much straighter.

The little girl stubbornly looked at the old man and still didn't speak, but silently raised the roast chicken in her hand in front of the old man.

"Smack! I don't want you stolen thing, I'd rather starve to death! The old lady reached out and knocked the roast chicken to the ground. Suddenly he cried out in pain.

"Grab it, take it all! , you won't even let go of the ancestral grave! Woowoooooooo

The little girl, tremblingly, picked up the roast chicken from the ground and waited very obediently by the old man's side.

The old lady, who was crying bitterly, suddenly smiled again when she saw the little girl. "Hehehe. Hehehehehe! Retribution! You also have today! I watched you die, watched your family die, I watched so happy, so happy! ”

The little girl was crying silently, and everyone could tell that she was mute. The old lady was laughing, smiling very happily. In the light of the night, the scene looked bleak.

"Go away, get out of here!" Just when everyone was silently looking at the pair of ancestors and grandchildren, a man wearing a city control uniform rushed out of the crowd and drove him over with a vicious voice.

The entire night market had their heads bowed. But no one stepped forward to stop him.

"They're my guests, is there a rule that doesn't allow guests to come over for dinner?" I put down my glass and said angrily. The sound was not loud but mixed with spiritual power, and the night market suddenly became quiet. Everyone around me looked at me with a strange look.
