Chapter 34: The Thoughts of a Youth

The red sun slowly moves westward, the rivers are dyed with golden waves, and the willow branches hold the most beautiful bouquet of lotus flowers and separate from Li Chun. "Brother Koharu, what's wrong with you?" She asked several times, but he didn't speak. "You just hate her, don't do that. You make Jiaojiao embarrassed, this is Jiaojiao's restaurant, it's hard to explain to the family if it's so dirty. ”

He lowered his head and said in a muffled voice, "I'll scrub them clean." ”

"It's not all. You see you make everyone unhappy, it's a rare day when everyone can play together. Don't do this in the future, okay? ”

He was reluctant to say a "good" word. Liu Zhi stood on tiptoe and stroked his cheek: "Don't worry what others say, I have me." ”

Li Chun almost wanted to cry, how could he tell her. He saw her beaded flowers on Yang Xiuxiu's head, her earrings on her ears, and her bracelet on her wrist, Yang Xiuxiu, really a nasty person! He wondered in his heart whether this Yang Xiuxiu was relying on Uncle Liu's favor to bully Xiaozhi and take all her things.

was already disgusted with this Yang Xiuxiu, but she even came over. The hand reached out to him for a moment as if a snake was about to climb the back of his hand, and the contrived sounds disgusted him to the extreme. Feng Jiaojiao will also grab him and push and shove, but there has never been such an ambiguity that makes people numb.

But if he says it, won't Twig think he's thinking too much? And he didn't want Xiaozhi to be angry, let alone let Yang Xiuxiu sue in front of Aunt Liu, so Xiaozhi would be scolded a lot because of himself.

Man Xianglou helped call a car, Yang Xiuxiu brought wicker and waited impatiently in the car, what could you say endlessly, these two people! She called several times and saw that the willow branch had finally arrived, and she was holding a bouquet of lotus flowers, her face and the flowers reflected each other, and the sunset was delicate and moving.

After Liu Zhi got into the car, he opened the curtains, looked at Li Chun, who was still standing in place, and waved to him with a smile. Yang Xiuxiu pursed her lips and glared at the side, grumbling in her stomach, hum, shameless! How can such a person marry her brother, she and Li Chun hugged each other, in fact, they can't be considered innocent anymore, and my brother is going to wear a green hat.

Yang Xiuxiu suddenly became excited, as if she had suddenly found a bright spot in this unlucky day. Since she was a child, her mother has beaten and scolded herself, everything good in the family is her brother, and she can't even get a mouthful of soup when her brother eats meat, and she spends her days porridge and pickles; The mother said that her daughter would marry out sooner or later, and she couldn't feed good things to other people's families. The gifts that Aunt Liu gave to her were all sold to her brother for the cost of studying. It's good for my brother to wear a green hat, my mother thinks about my brother so much that it's the best, and she ended up marrying a broken shoe and entering the door - the more she thought about it, the more excited she became, so much so that he laughed. Wicker was startled, and couldn't help but lean closer to his sister.

Li Chun dug out a clay pot under a willow tree, counted the copper plates inside, and was a little worried. All this money he had saved up privately, and he was far from buying a silver bracelet, let alone a gold bracelet. Thinking that Xiaozhi doesn't have any jewelry belts now, and she has to borrow it from Feng Jiaojiao, she can't say sad in her heart.

He took a fancy to a gold bracelet of Mao Fuxiang, ten percent of pure gold, the pattern is pomegranate flowers wrapped with pomegranate fruits, and the lines are complex and look joyful and lively; There is also a little bird with a cocked tail and looking back, and the bird's eyes are inlaid with two coral beads the size of a grain of rice, and it is like a lively chirping among the flowers. Such a good thing can be matched with a twig, but he can only look at it, even the simplest glossy twist silver bracelet he can't afford to buy.

Li Chun ran to the cargo dock to find something to do. The tall men laughed at me and said that this was not a place for children, and he said that I was not a child. Oh, the rough guys jokingly asked him if he had all the hair. Li Chun said if you want me to take off my pants, you may not be as big as me.

The men who were covered in wine and sweat laughed loudly, probably to make him retreat and humiliate him as much as possible, and all they sent him were bags of goods of one hundred catties.

When the first bag of goods was put on the shoulder, his eyes were a little black, and he felt a fishy sweetness in his throat and eyes. The first day actually fell, and at the end of the day he was so tired that he collapsed directly in the dock pile and fell asleep, who fed him a few mouthfuls of water in the haze, but he was so tired that he didn't even want to swallow.

The hardest part was the second and third days. Both shoulders were rubbed by the sack, the skin was turned over and the flesh was rotten, swollen like a bun, like boiling water, and it hurt to panic without touching, and when the goods pressed on the sparse and swollen shoulders, bean-sized sweat drops instantly gushed out on his forehead.

The fresh and hot pain made his legs tremble, but he had to hold on.

Slowly, the bruise on his shoulder dispersed, the swelling subsided, the fatigue was not so strong, he stopped calling it a day and fell down as if he were dead, and he could joke with the group.

"Where's the money? Where is the money for you to carry goods at the docks? Li Da almost lifted the planks of the boat, threw a few tattered clothes everywhere like scattered flowers, and yelled at him, "I raised you, and now that you can make money, you should honor me!" ”

Li Chun didn't speak, when he lowered his head and picked up his clothes, the wind whistled overhead, he reached out and grabbed it, and an arm-thick chopping wood was grabbed by him. Li Da held the chopping wood in both hands, and was caught by him and stumbled down, he froze, and suddenly realized that the silent little boy had grown up, so powerful, if he wanted to, he could fight back at any time.

Suddenly, Li Da rolled on the bow of the boat, snorting and crying with tears, "You thundered this day, you will take revenge!" You don't have to die well! ”

Li Dafa went crazy more than once or twice, and it didn't cause too many onlookers, at most he persuaded two sentences, "Li Chun, you just follow your uncle, your uncle is old" "After all, your uncle raised you, you can't have no conscience." ”

Li Chun watched the white waterfowl skim over the mast, flying into the distance like a sharp arrow, and he was bored when he could fly high in the air like this bird.

After a tired day, he washed his body in the river and returned to the boat, Li Da was not there, he didn't care about him, and fell asleep. In the middle of the night, someone outside called him "Li Chun, Li Chun", and he hunched over and walked out of the cabin. It's the pimp of the flower boat, this is not the first time, Li Da is so drunk that he doesn't know who is going to know, and the turtle will ask him to come and get people, and more importantly, ask him to give money.

This is the lowest-grade private prostitute, and the flower boat is also a small black canopy that is almost shabby as he lives, but it is just a string of red lanterns. The aroma of inferior liquor and fat powder is disgusting, and most of the customers are middle-aged women who are forced by life, and there are few young women, and ten dollars can make the rough man at the dock vent once.

The woman in the crumpled and stained emerald green silk shirt opened her chest, revealing her white swaying flesh, and pulled his arm with a smile: "Don't be in a hurry to leave, your uncle won't wake up for a while, and my sister-in-law will entertain you for free." "In the end, I don't have the face to call my sister in front of this fresh young man.

"Get out of here!" He scolded under his breath. The woman was stunned for a moment, her face was hot, and she wanted to make a noise, but when she saw that his face was terrible, she spat and scolded and went away.
