Old William looked at the middle-aged man sitting solemnly in front of him, "You came to me, what's the matter?" ”

"I'm preparing for a sacred thing, and I want your cooperation." Sun Xin said, pushing a piece of paper in front of him.

Old William glanced at Sun Xin suspiciously, hesitated for a while but opened it, looked at it, and couldn't help but read it aloud, "The bourgeoisie and the communist ......"

Old William carefully read this thin information word by word, and his dissatisfaction and anger, doubts and thoughts about the current situation of society over the years were all sublimated in this word and condensed into a terrible thought, "Overthrow it!" Change it! ”

Old William closed the last page and raised his head, and asked Sun Xin with a complicated feeling, "Can this really be realized?" ”

Old William looked at the man known as the bloody butcher and stood up, and raised his clenched fist firmly, "There is no road in the world, there are more people walking, and thorns will become smooth roads, this road will be very long, but I believe that one day it will come to an end, are you willing to be a pioneer and work with me to open up a smooth road for future generations?" ”

Seeing the back of old William in the distance, the monkey came over and asked, "Boss, how are you talking?" ”

Sun Xin smiled, "It is impossible for any thoughtful adult to make this kind of decision easily, I am just planting a seed in his heart today, waiting for the moment when it sprouts." ”

Old William walked home with apprehension, carrying the thin book in his arms.

When he got home, William Sr. carefully hid it and put it away, and lay down in the small bedroom looking at the pictures on the wall.

The somewhat ordinary woman in the photo is William Sr.'s long-dead wife, who, like many of his friends, died of a sudden emergency and left him forever on a sunny morning.

Old William clearly remembers that he spent one morning dealing with his wife's funeral, and then had to endure his grief and go to work in the factory.

Otherwise, someone will take his place, he will lose this stable source of income, and his children will go hungry.

"Daddy, are you home?" A lark-like voice rang out outside the door, it was the voice of the youngest daughter, Karina.

"I'm here." Old William got up and asked, "What's the matter Karina?" ”

"My brother is planning to steal the car again!" The brother in Karina's mouth is Julio, the stinky boy who gave old William a headache.

Julio is a typical young man's mentality, proud, rebellious and ambitious, always thinking about doing big things and making a lot of money all day long, and feeling disdainful of William Sr.'s behavior of staying in the factory with peace of mind.

Thinking of that stinky boy who gave people a headache, old William sighed and opened the door, "What about your brother?" Where is he? ”

After the elder William left the house, he did not go directly to Julio, but first found a corner, squatted down and smoked a homemade cigarette, while smoking, he pondered and drew some meaningless patterns on the ground with his fingers, and after smoking a cigarette, he got up to find Julio.

Julio excitedly stopped Max who was off work, looked around vigilantly, and lowered his voice, "We're ready, we'll do it tomorrow, there are a total of four cars in the big house on the top of the mountain, and I have three people now, what do you think?" ”

"Not good! If I were you, there would only be two of us, and I would do it tonight, drive away the two fastest cars, and burn the rest. Max blurted out a sentence that he didn't even think of, and as soon as the words came out, he patted his head in annoyance, and nodded Julio helplessly.

Julio yelled, "Hey! I knew you were the best! ”

"No, don't even think about it, I don't want to go back to prison." Max shook his head and shook off Julio's tug, "That hell place, I don't want to go back to in my life." ”

"Max! Think again! Julio shouted loudly.

"Consider what?" A deep voice rang in my ears.

"About the big house at the top of the hill, of course." After Julio subconsciously answered, he chuckled in his heart, turned his head, and sure enough, Old William's burly body stopped behind him like a wall.

"You've always admired Max, why don't you learn from him and go to work in the factory together." Old William looked at Julio in disappointment, "Or do you want to go to that black prison with a 90% mortality rate to experience life?" ”

Julio rolled his eyes impatiently and turned to leave.

"Julio, I know you've always wanted to buy a ticket to take Karina up for treatment, but I don't want it to cost you your life, and neither does Karina." Speaking of Karina, Old William's tone was a little heavy.

Julio stopped his steps and turned to stare at William Sr., "What about Karina?" Just on your meager salary? Even if I go to the factory with you, it will take at least twenty years for our salaries to get together for a ferry ticket, and Karina can't wait that long. ”

Old William was silent, he didn't know how to answer the question.

Julio stared at Old William and sneered softly, then turned to leave.

"Where's my brother?" Karina put down the spoon in her hand and looked at her father's lonely figure, "Didn't my brother come back with you?" ”

"No, Julio stays with your big brother Max and won't come back for dinner at night."

"Oh." Karina turned to pick up dinner, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen Big Max in a long time. ”

"Max works in a factory, and he is so tired every day, how can he come to play with you in his free time." Old William said as he helped clean up the table.

After a simple but very warm dinner, old William pushed Karina to rest, "Okay, okay, you've done enough today, go and rest, and I'll take care of the rest." ”

Karina knew her situation, showed a beautiful smile at her father, and obediently went back to her room to rest.

Julio snorted and pushed open the door to Max's house and sat down in his chair without speaking.

"What's wrong, Julio? Still not home so late? Karina should be in a hurry. Max reluctantly took some out of his small stock of food and handed it to Julio, "You haven't eaten dinner yet, have you?" Come on, let's have some food together. ”

Julio shook his head and refused, "I'm not hungry." ”

Max shrugged his shoulders and put the food away again, "Tell me, what's wrong?" ”

"What else can there be, it's still Karina's business." Speaking of this topic, Julio was a little frustrated, "When will I save enough money to send Karina up." ”

"Listen to me, Julio, don't talk about it, smuggling boats are dangerous, and getting a ticket doesn't mean you'll be able to get there." Max tapped the plate and warned Julio, "And if you get caught in the black jail, Karina won't be able to stand it, she can't stand the irritation, you know!" ”
