Chapter 40: Returning Home
Little Buddha is an interesting person, I seem to have said this, but I can't help but say it again.
By the way, I also want to say: What kind of bullshit driver did you arrange for me, Little Buddha, do I fuck you?!
"Dude, what do you have ...... snacks in Guiyang?"
"I heard that the climate in Guiyang is very good, eh......"
"Why do you want to go back? Is there an urgent matter over there or do you want to go to the New Year? ”
I don't know which road the driver took me to, only that he took me around China, and I was dragged to Guiyang in the early morning of the third day.
I won't say anything about these, it's understandable, after all, it's quite chaotic outside, and maybe someone will follow you, but ......
That's all for Mao's driver?!! After I answered many questions, the next day he continued to ask as if he had lost his memory, and he continued to ask all kinds of questions.
I was about to cry when I got out of the car, brother, can't you say less?
"I'll go home first, just in time for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner." The driver said to me, with a smile on his face: "If you don't go back, my daughter-in-law should be in a hurry, and when the time comes, you give me a call, and I will pick you up." ”
"I'm sorry for you." I nodded, got out of the car with the lazy cat unwilling to move, and before closing the door, I took out a red envelope that had been secretly packed last night and handed it to the driver: "Happy New Year." ”
The driver took it, pinched the thickness with his hand, and hurriedly returned the red envelope: "This can't be done, big brother, we can't do this kind of thing, how can we take your red envelope when we are so adults." ”
"You're welcome, it's a fare." I laughed, threw the red envelope through the window, turned and left.
Guiyang is still that Guiyang, almost nothing has changed, to be precise, no matter which city it is, it will not change at all because of any small things.
Compared to the city where I was some time ago, Guiyang was a little warmer, and there was no snow in the sky, but it was just a cold winter rain.
I didn't expect it to rain suddenly, so I had no choice but to put on the hat of my hooded jacket and put the kitten in my clothes, only to let its small head show at the collar.
With my cat, I shuttled alone in the crowd, and suddenly I felt extremely comfortable.
I haven't felt this way in a long time......
"Meow." The cat barked timidly, looking at the strange city in front of it, it may be scared, right?
"This is my home." I buried my head and whispered to comfort the scared strange cats, and walked through the crowd: "I'll take you to the wreath shop to see, I used to live there." ”
Now I'm in a far away place from the city center, and if I had to walk, I guess it would be afternoon until the wreath shop, and I would have to get there at the earliest.
But I didn't plan to go by car, after all, I can't stay in the city long, and I'll have to go back in two days at most, beyond which I feel like I'm in trouble.
Many of the eyeliner of the God of Wealth have been arranged in Guiyang, and six or seven of the capable people of the No. 8 pawnshop have settled in Guiyang, this is the news I got yesterday, and the little Buddha told me personally on the phone.
"Damn, you should die quickly, don't come back, do your best to find something for me." Little Buddha scolded on the phone yesterday: "My brother has temporarily hidden it from you, I said that you went out to relax, I didn't dare to say that you went back to Guiyang, you hurry up and come back, don't show it." ”
At that time, I promised very happily, but I am still a little hesitant now, why not stay in Guiyang for a few more days?
I really don't want to leave here......
Just as I was hurrying in the rain, my mobile phone suddenly rang, and it was Zhou Yan calling me.
"It's rare to give you a call."
"Hmm." I smiled and said, "Happy New Year." ”
Zhou Yan was silent on the other end of the phone for a while, and sighed: "You... Are you okay? ”
"It's okay, I'm doing well, don't worry." I couldn't help but show a stupid smile, just like when I was in college, I quarreled with Zhou Yan's grandson, and then he softened first, and the smile he showed when I saw him softened was the smile now, this feeling is really familiar.
"You're in Guiyang, I know the way." Zhou Yan said.
Hearing this, I was stunned for a moment, and my brows were furrowed: "Fuck, the country's phone tracking technology is so awesome?" Could it be that this is the ....... of the rise of science and technology in the motherland?"
"Stupid, someone next to you said Guiyang dialect, and Lao Tzu is not stupid." Zhou Yan's scolding suddenly gave me some pointers, and made me wake up from the state of lamenting the country's scientific and technological progress.
"Happy New Year." I said that I didn't dare to continue my topic in Guiyang.
"Happy New Year." Zhou Yan said that he seemed to hesitate for a while, and asked me hesitantly: "Can we meet?" ”
I paused abruptly, the expression on my face becoming more complicated, but then I shook my head vigorously and continued to walk in this once familiar city.
I can't meet them, and I'd love to meet them, but ...... Damn your surname is Yi, are you impatient?!
"You're being watched now, and if you do, I guess you'll be dead." My smile was a little bitter, and my words were full of helplessness: "What about the fat uncle?" ”
"He's watching TV in the hospital room." Zhou Yan asked me sarcastically: "Usually you are busy enough, but you can't remember to make a phone call to come back to comfort and comfort the fat uncle, right?" ”
"Uncle Fat's body has been getting worse and worse recently, and it seems to be a sign of neurasthenia, do you know how worried Uncle Lu Dao is about you and that birdman? If it goes on like this......"
I really haven't been in touch with them during this time, but ...... And for a reason......
I'm really afraid that I'll inadvertently say something, and it will be really troublesome if I cause them a little trouble, so instead of risking a conversation with them, I'd better be silent for a while, and then meet them in peace when everything is done.
Seeing that I didn't speak, Zhou Yan also quieted down and stopped making a sound.
"Do you remember that garbage shed across the street from the wreath shop?"
"What's wrong?"
"You take ...... at night," I said, expecting something in my heart, but more than that, there was a kind of helplessness that made me almost crazy.
It seems like that's all there is to it......
That's right, that's the only way, to take risks but not to take risks, and maybe that's the best way to do it.
I thought about the plan I had just come up with, and after making sure that there was no problem, I repeated it to Zhou Yan.
"Only like this?!"
"Well, if we don't, we won't be able to meet." I smiled bitterly and said, "It's also a snack for Uncle Fat, I have to let him see with his own eyes that I'm still alive and well, right?" If it weren't for the fat uncle's aggravation as you said......"
"It's not just aggravating ......" Zhou Yan helplessly corrected my mistake: "His mental condition is too bad now...... Do you know that he is likely to .......?"
"That's why I'm going to take the risk of meeting you today, no, it's for you to meet me......"
"Okay, let's have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together in the evening, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat there." Zhou Yan smiled bitterly, but then returned to his usual tone and said, "Be careful." ”
"Well, hang up."
After that, I hung up the phone and turned off the phone, looked left and right, and saw that the small grocery store across the street was open, so I walked over and bought two snakeskin bags, which are the kind of bags that ordinary homeless people pack with garbage, and then found an alley and walked in, took off my coat straightforwardly, and sat down on the wet ground.
Well, in an instant, my pants were so dirty that they couldn't get dirty.
I also put some muddy water on the ground, put it back on, and slapped it on my face with some dirty muddy water, and only stopped when it felt almost like that.
took out his mobile phone and took a photo, and was immediately blinded by his wonderful face.
If someone could recognize me, I'd really have to kneel down for him and beg him to take my knees, wouldn't that be a recognition?!
"it stinks." Using the plastic bags I picked up as gloves, I reached into the trash cans in the alley, and smashed some less disgusting garbage out and threw it into a snakeskin bag.
"Meow." The cat looked at me strangely, as if wondering what I was doing.
"Don't make a fuss, I'll take you to see my family at night." I said, bending slightly, taking the cat into my arms, putting on my dirty hat and dragging the snakeskin bag out of the alley.
When the pedestrians on the road passed me, they all avoided the side, frowning and covering their noses, looking at me as if they were looking at a garbage can.
I didn't pay attention to their reactions, and although I was smiling happily, my head was always buried and no one could notice the expression on my face.
The cat did not dislike the smell of me, and lay on my arms in the familiar, looking at the city with its eyes.
It was in that state that I walked through half the city with the crowds, embarrassed but happy towards my destination.
Maybe no one would have thought of it.
The person on the blacklist of the No. 8 pawnshop, the one surnamed Yi, returned to Guiyang alone on the day of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve.
"It's almost there."
I don't know how long I've been walking, but when I looked up, I saw the wreath shop I had always dreamed of going back to, and although the door was closed, I was still ......
It's raining, isn't it?
How else would my face be wet......
"Finally home." I said to myself, wiping my eyes and smiling.
