Chapter 30: Thai Tiger
The county is very large, but the county seat is not too big, and it takes about ten minutes to get to the Red Cross hospital by bicycle. The hospital in the county is not big, and the big ones go to the big hospitals in the city for medical treatment, and the people with minor illnesses endure it themselves, and then go to the big city or wait for death after they endure it, a hospital building with a mosaic, dilapidated like a pockmarked face, Xiaocheng straddled the bicycle, looked at the road sign on Maple Road and looked up at the red cross on the roof of the hospital building, which was in disrepair, and the red cross was blackened.
Taihu was a well-known figure on the road ten years ago, but later went out to break out, injured people outside, and was sentenced to three years for intentional injury, because the prison where the crime occurred was overcrowded, and then he was sent back to his hometown to serve his sentence. In the prison, when the old thieves talked about Taihu, their hair was fried, giving Xiao Cheng the feeling that this was a godfather-like figure in Red Star County.
No. 89 Maple Leaf Road, almost a single courtyard! The courtyard gate is four or five meters wide, and there is a pair of couplets at the door, the upper link is: washing the car and waxing, and the lower link is sheet metal spray painting. There are also eight big characters on the plaque, accessories monopoly, Seiko maintenance. It's like a car repair shop.
Xiao Cheng pushed the bicycle and walked in with his probe, and a young man who was washing the car turned his head to look at him: "Brother, we are repairing cars, repairing bicycles, at the intersection in front." ”
"I don't fix cars, I find people. ”
"Who are you looking for?" The apprentice is only eighteen or nineteen years old, and if he goes to school, I'm afraid he hasn't graduated from high school yet.
"Excuse me, is Uncle Taihu here?"
The junior apprentice looked at Wen Xiaocheng with strange eyes, and then pulled his neck and shouted inside: "Master!
The repair shop is on the edge of the county seat, just near the direction of Dongfeng Town, and Xiao Cheng passed by here when he came. The shop is not small, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a repair shop, there are four or five cars parked in the yard, most of the independent brands, the price of new cars is almost not more than 100,000, and the parts and tools in one place look like a scrap yard at first glance. There are three bungalows inside, a garage built up, the shelves of the garage are messily placed with all kinds of oily parts, and a middle-aged man in his 30s got out from under the car, and his dark face could not be seen.
"Who is looking for me?" the man asked, and then saw Wen Xiaocheng at the door, obviously stunned.
"Are you Uncle Taihu? I am Wen Xinwu's son, and my name is Wen Xiaocheng. ”
The man's eyes were still puzzled, "Wen Xinwu?"
"I just came back from a prison visit, and my dad said that you and he were friends in trouble, and gave me this address, so I could come and visit. ”
At the mention of prison, the man was happy, "Wen Xinwu! We all call us nicknames in the warehouse, your father's name is Lao Xiucai, and I didn't even react to what you said about Wen Xinwu!
Xiao Cheng smiled and shook his head, "It's okay, just come and recognize the door." ”
Taihu put down the tools in his hand, and took off the black white line cloth gloves, although there were gloves separating them, his hands were still black, he looked down, smiled bitterly, tilted his head at Xiao Chengyi, and said, "Let's go, go into the house, and wait for me to wash my face." ”
The faucet was flushed for a long time, and the water that flowed down was black, so I could see the true face of Taihu, which was not the same as the imaginary godfather of the underworld, just an ordinary middle-aged uncle, with a slight feature of scars on his face, and one eye was big and one was small. The uncle wiped his hands, took a bottle of soda from the refrigerator, stuffed it into Xiaocheng's hand, and led him into the house.
The house was also in a mess, and the bungalow was on fire, but there was a place to put your feet down. The blanket on the kang was not folded, and the uncle pulled it into the kang casually, and said to Wen Xiaocheng: "Sit!"
"Is your grandma good?"
Xiao Cheng nodded, "It's good." ”
The uncle nodded, frowned, and said, "It's not your grandmother's business, then it's easy to do, child, let's be honest, what's the matter? It's okay, your father won't let you come to me, don't worry, there are not many things that uncle can do, and your father also knows, is there any trouble in the school?"
The little trouble in the school, Xiao Cheng really doesn't want to alarm people at the level of Taihu, it's like a cannon hitting mosquitoes. However, when people asked, it was not appropriate to say that there was nothing at all.
"Uncle, it's really a bit of a thing, my grandmother rides a three-wheeled car to sell sugar gourds, you know? Every day, I have to pedal back to Dongfeng Town from the county seat, back and forth, the road is three or four hours, after all, I am also in his sixties, I feel sorry for the old lady, I heard my father said that you opened a repair shop, I want to inquire, add a motor to the tricycle, change it to an electric one, how much does it cost?"
Taihu smiled, "You kid has filial piety, you don't have to worry about money, I have a ready-made motor and battery pack, I buy a controller, push the car for half a day, and let you ride back! But child, you can't fool me, your father doesn't know that I will do auto repair after I come out, you can't find me because of this." ”
The words were squeezed to this, and Wen Xiaocheng had no choice but to tell the truth.
"You really don't rub sand in your eyes, I'll tell you the truth, it's a matter of school. Didn't my dad hack someone to death? One dead and three injured, the families of the dead and injured are all in the same school as me, either with me or older than me, since I was in junior high school, I began to bully me, I couldn't bear it, and beat one of the leaders, this matter must not be finished, and then I made an appointment with them, and I didn't know anyone, so I provoked a group of guys who cheated on the side of the road, tied them a pair, and the two gangs fought, and the gangsters in the school really couldn't do the gangsters in society, and they were all beaten away, which was yesterday's thing. I think it's over, but my dad is not sure, so he asked me to come to you. ”
"Are you sure?" asked Taihu with a smile.
"There's nothing unsteady, isn't it just that you beat me up, and I'll beat you? They don't dare to kill me? The beating is nothing more than two days, if you dare to beat me to a serious injury, my grandmother will still have someone to care for! The main thing is that people are calling, we can't just be next to each other, can't we let these guys fight easily! With these two incidents, I guess they will have to weigh and weigh me again when they bully me, so I don't think it's a big deal. ”
Taihu smiled appreciatively, "Sure enough, the tiger father has no dogs! A child of your age can have such an open-minded insight, it is not easy, but your father's worries are not unreasonable, adults are fighting with their hands, and they are afraid of making things bigger, because they know awe, they are afraid of making things bigger, and you are a half-old child of your age, you don't care about anything when you stare at it, this is also worried about your accident." ”
Taihu frowned and thought for a while, pushed open the door and shouted from outside: "Wang Yang, come in!"
When the elementary school apprentice who was washing the car at the door heard this, he put down the guy in his hand and ran in a few steps, "What's wrong, master?"
"Among your fox friends and dogs, are there any people from Dongfeng Town? Take the time to take him to get to know him, this is the son of Lao Xiucai, don't let the child be bullied!"
