I don't know how much we drank that night, but the four of us walked to the toilet on the edge of the square almost every ten minutes.

Another table in our tent changed from one to another while we continued to drink. I don't know if it's three or four of the beer crates piled up next to our table. My face must have turned purple. I felt like my whole body was red. Cheng Wei stood up from his position from time to time to touch his belly, and said vigorously that he couldn't fit it, and he couldn't fit it.

Inspired by my tragic story, they told their hearts one by one. To my surprise, Jin Limei actually said that she and her husband were divorcing. We all say she's a liar, and she's not a human when she says she's a liar. Seeing her tears in her eyes, it doesn't look like lying.

Unexpectedly, three of the four people at the table were divorced or about to be divorced.

"What is this probability? The divorce rate in this fucking society is too high. Cheng Wei said.

"If you can't come, you can leave, and it's no good to hold on." I say.

"Hey, Zheng Yidao, you are better than us, you have no children, but my poor son was born, but he died early." Jin Limei said.

"It was so unexpected. How could your mother-in-law be so careless? Dong Yunfen asked.

I have already explained before that Jin Limei's son was suffocated by the quilt.

"Hell knows, usually she wouldn't be so careless. The thought of this makes my heart feel broken. ”

"It's come to this, don't be too sad." Cheng Wei said, "Don't I also have children? I just feel too much to the child. The older the child, the more he feels indebted. ”

"I'm getting nervous when I hear you say that." Dong Yunfen said.

"Yes, you have to fight the battle to defend your marriage." Jin Limei said.

"You don't want to get divorced too." I say.

"How so? The little couple is fine, haven't you heard that her husband will pick her up immediately? ”

When Dong Yunfen's husband came to pick her up, Cheng Wei had already paid the bill, and we had already walked to the three-way intersection at the junction of Nanjing Road and Yangjiangqian Road. Dong Yunfen got on her husband's scooter, put one hand around her husband's waist, and waved to us with the other.

"Where are we going again?" I asked.

"Are you going to sing or soak your feet?" Cheng Wei asked.

"Are you going to serve to the end today?" Jin Limei looked at Cheng Wei.

"As long as the beauty likes it, I will accompany it to the end." Cheng Wei shook his body.

"Didn't drink too much, did you?" I held Cheng Wei.

"Drink multiple farts. How much beer can you drink? I said, brother, you don't seem to be okay today? Cheng Wei said.

"Are you alright? I went to the toilet and threw up. I vomited when I drank too much. ”

"It's okay to vomit." Jin Limei said, "If you vomit alcohol, you won't nest in your stomach, and it will cause little harm to your body." ”

"But I've heard that vomiting is not good, and it hurts my stomach." I say.

"Oh, it doesn't matter if he vomits well or not, it matters where we're going." Cheng Wei was a little anxious.

"Since Secretary Cheng is so sincere, I think it's better to soak your feet, and you can soak your feet to sober up." Kim Li-mei proposed.

"Okay." I say.

"Can you still drive?" Cheng Wei asked.

"Yes."

"Still driving?" Jin Limei said, "The car is lost here." Let's go to the 'Ryoko Foot Bath', which is not far from here anyway, just a few minutes away. ”

"OK, let's take a walk."

Let's go in the direction of the main street. Nanjing Road is full of people and the shops are brightly lit. Yangjiang Middle Road is bleak in comparison, and its popularity is not as popular as Nanjing Road. You must know that Yangjiang Middle Road was the most prosperous section of Yangjiang County before.

We turned onto Yangjiang Middle Road. There are some small traders and vendors at the intersection of every lane on Yangjiang Middle Road, some selling barbecue, some setting up night food stalls, and some selling some small items.

Every now and then a motorcycle will drive by. Looking at the owner's hairstyle, you can see that it is some gangsters. They bang on the accelerator, and the motorcycle makes a deafening rumble, making an S-curve on the street, making everyone who approaches the car tremble.

We talked about such characters as we walked.

We walked about five minutes before we heard a woman arguing with a customer in the alleyway in front of us. The quarrel was accompanied by the cry of a little girl.

We can't help but pick up the pace. Not far away, we saw two young men fighting with the female trader over something.

"Mommy, Mommy, Mommy." The little girl beside the female trader cried out in horror.

"I beg you, I've spent the money." The female trader cried.

"See your ghost and ask Lao Tzu for money?" A young man scolded.

"Lao Tzu has taken a fancy to your things, do you dare not give them? Let go! Another young man said.

"Please, will you pay me the capital?" The tradewoman said.

"you!" The smaller young man kicked the female trader, and the female trader fell to the ground, but she still held on tightly to what she was holding.

The little girl came screaming.

"What are you doing?!" Cheng Wei roared. He rushed forward. I rushed forward.

When the two young men saw us, they immediately let go, turned around and got on the motorbike and galloped away. The tall young man kicked the female trader before leaving.

"Don't go!" Cheng Wei shouted. He looked at the motorcycle in the distance.

I bent down to help the tradedwoman. By the light of the street lamps in the alleyway, I could see the face of the female trader. It is a melon seed face, big eyes, and long eyelashes. What a familiar face.

That's the face I want to see all the time. This is the face that I want to see every year of my life. Although I have not seen this face for 18 years, although this face was immature 18 years ago, and now it has experienced vicissitudes, I will never admit that I am wrong. That's the face.

"You're Hao Junqi, you're Junqi, right?" I asked.

"I'm Hao Junqi. Are you setting sail, are you Zheng Qihang? A pair of wide-eyed eyes that exuded surprise.

"It's me. I'm Zheng Qihang. I said.

"Are you really Brother Sailing?" Still disbelieving eyes. No, it's not that I don't believe it, it's that I can't believe it.

"It's me."

"Brother—"

"Junqi—"

Hao Junqi and I hugged each other.

"Are you really Junqi? Is Junqi the one who grew up with me at the East Gate? I'm not dreaming, am I? I patted Hao Junqi on the back.

"I am, I'm Junqi. You're not dreaming. I'm Junqi who grew up with you at the East Gate. ”

"You know I've been looking for you." Tears welled up in my eyes.

"I know. I'm looking for you too, I've been looking for you all along. Hao Junqi choked up and said.

"Eighteen years, without a single message about you, not even a word, you seem to have disappeared from this earth." I say.

"Are you desperate?" Hao Junqi asked.

"No, brother did not despair, brother never despaired. Brother believes that you will definitely appear. ”

"Brother—"

"Look, haven't you come back to me?" I don't know what I'm talking about. I just feel like I have too much to say.

"Mommy, Mommy." The little girl is calling.

We let go of our hands. Jin Limei and Cheng Wei stood quietly aside.

Hao Junqi held the little girl in her hands, "Hao Jia, call uncle, call uncle." ”

The little girl tilted her head to the side.

"What's wrong, Hao Jia? It's called uncle, this is the uncle that my mother often mentions to you. Hao Junqi said softly to the little girl.

The little girl tilted her head and called out timidly, "Uncle."

"That's good," I touched the little girl's face amicably, "daughter?" ”

Hao Junqi nodded.

A strange feeling drifted through my mind.

Hao Junqi is really married and has children.

"I'm sorry." I smiled at Cheng Wei and Jin Limei.

"We were all moved." Jin Limei said.

Cheng Wei said to Hao Junqi: "You are Hao Junqi, right?" We were still planning for your brother how to find you. ”

Hao Junqi didn't know it.

"It was my brother who drank too much and mentioned you very sadly, so they reminded me to go to the TV station to do subtitle advertising." I said, "That way, as long as you're in Yangjiang, I can get in touch with you soon." I didn't expect to see you tonight. ”

"Oh, I didn't expect that either. By the way, have you drunk too much? How do I smell a burst of alcohol. Are you alright, brother? Hao Junqi looked at me.

"Nothing." I say.

"Oh, I really didn't expect my brother to be in Yangjiang. I once believed that my brother was in Yangjiang. In the first few years after returning to Yangjiang, I went to various units almost whenever I had time to inquire, but there was no news of my brother, so that I ......"

"So much so that you don't believe that my brother is in Yangjiang, right?"

"Hmm. What unit is brother in? ”

"Your brother is in the People's Hospital. Haven't you heard of such a famous Zheng Yidao? Let me tell you, your brother came to work in Yangjiang Hospital because he was looking for you. Jin Limei said first.

"Oh. Is this sister-in-law, brother? Hao Junqi looked at me.

"No, no, it's my colleague Jin Limei. I forgot to introduce it to you. And this is Cheng Wei, the party secretary of Shiqiao Town, Yangjiang County. My brother. I said.

Hao Junqi smiled at them. That's when I noticed Hao Junqi's appearance.

Hao Junqi's smile is particularly charming and moving. Her figure is very much like her mother, it can be said that it is printed in a mold, tall, thin, but also exudes a strong force.

Cheng Wei said: "You can also call me brother." ”

"Is that okay, brother?" Hao Junqi asked.

"Absolutely."

"But I don't want to."

"Why?" Cheng Wei was disappointed.

"Because my brother only has one." Hao Junqi looked at me.

"It's Zheng Qihang, right?" Jin Limei asked.

Hao Junqi nodded.

"Your brother and sister are too affectionate. Secretary Cheng, it seems that it is not easy for you to want Sister Hao to recognize your brother. Jin Limei said.

"One day, I will let Sister Hao recognize me as a big brother." Cheng Wei said to me.

We chatted for a while.

The two gangsters just now are Hao Junqi's "frequent visitors", they often come to find trouble, and they always take whatever they like. Usually they take some small things, a few yuan of things, Hao Junqi put up with it, but today they took a fancy to a leather belt, worth dozens of yuan, Hao Junqi has a small business, how can he afford it? So there was a conflict.

"Fuck, I despise this little bastard the most. Sister Hao, don't worry, tomorrow I will go to the secretary of Xiayangjiang Town, and there will be no more such things in the future. Cheng Wei said.

"Really?" Hao Junqi looked at Cheng Wei with wide eyes.

"Of course it is. Don't you believe in my abilities? ”

"It's not that I don't believe it." Hao Junqi said, "It's too pleasantly surprised. ”

"If he can't do this, I won't recognize him as a brother." I say.

"I know the secretary of Yangjiang Town very well, and he will send someone to find these gangsters. I can't guarantee anyone else, at least you won't be bullied by these bastards. Cheng Wei is full of confidence.

"Thank you."

"So, hurry up and recognize this brother." Jin Limei said.

"No, no, I don't want Sister Hao to recognize me as a brother for this reason." Cheng Wei waved his hand, "That's too utilitarian." ”

"If that's the case, Secretary Cheng won't recognize me as a sister." Hao Junqi said.

……

We talked for about half an hour. There were some people who came over to buy something on the way, and we helped with the sales. Hao Jia was already asleep.

It is impossible to soak your feet again.

Jin Limei drank too much and had a headache and wanted to go home to rest, so she offered to let me take her home.

"Let Cheng Wei send it. I want to stay with my sister a little longer. I said.

"Is that okay? Other beauties want you to send it, how can you let me send it? I don't do such thankless work. Brother, I'm here with your sister. You can rest assured that you won't lose it again. Cheng Wei said.

I looked at Hao Junqi.

"You go and send it, brother, it's okay for me." Hao Junqi said, "I still have to do business for a while." I don't need Secretary Cheng to accompany you, I see that you have drunk too much, and you can go home early to rest. ”

"Is this an eviction order? I can't go. If Brother Zheng comes back and doesn't see you, he will kill me. Cheng Wei joked.

"Is that an exaggeration?" I say.

"Definitely."
