In the north in June, the weather is dry and dry, even if the air conditioner is blowing, there are still three points of heat.

And under the scorching sun, staring at the high temperature of nearly forty degrees, a young man, shirtless, wearing only a pair of big pants, pulling two open-toed cloth shoes, with beads of sweat the size of beans, is standing in the ditch of the brick kiln, guarding an open-top three-wheeled transport vehicle, on both sides are drying bricks, the car is loaded with two or three hundred, but only a quarter of the car, the weather is too hot, he wiped the sweat on his face with his dirty left hand, picked up a white plastic water bottle that can hold five kilograms, and drank wildly, Instantly, beads of sweat erupted again, as if they had just taken a shower.

Sweat flowed down his chest, his back flowed, his big pants became wet, and he stuck to his legs, sweat flowed down his legs, and the two cloth shoes he pulled were also wet, mixed with the mud and very slippery, the man took off his shoes and stepped on the dry soil next to him, leaving wet footprints, and then put on his shoes again, picked up the brick clamp and continued to load the bricks into the car.

The young man's movements are very sharp, and there are gaps between each of the rows of bricks, and they must not be clamped directly with brick clamps, because there is not so much tension force.

There are ten layers of bricks from top to bottom, the man uses his feet against the bottom layer, and he steps forward, the gap between the bricks shrinks instantly, and then he pushes the top layer with his left hand, and the four bricks are put together, and the bricks on his right hand are clamped steadily, put on the car, and then repeat this action, the second time, the third time......

Sweat also dripped down his right hand directly onto the dry bricks, leaving traces of sweat beads on almost every brick.

If someone says that money is easy to earn, then maybe they won't think so when they see him, this is the fourteen-year-old Xiao Feng, a child from a poor peasant family, with short black hair, tanned and swarthy, thick eyebrows, red phoenix eyes, high nose bridge, square seakou, and thin lips!

Just then, the cell phone in my pocket rang.

"Didi ......"

Xiao Feng put down the brick clip, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, an elderly machine, the sound was not small, but it was still a black and white screen, he rubbed the sweat stuck to the screen and keyboard on his body, and pressed the answer button.

"Hello!"

A girl's grumpy voice came over the phone, "Where did you drive?" Why haven't the workers sent it yet! ”

"Girl, are you sure you're right?"

"Hey, what's wrong with the sound? What are you pretending to be tender! ”

"He, I...... You made a mistake! ”

Xiao Feng was also angry, hung up the phone angrily, put it in his pocket and continued to work.

It is estimated that the other party is also energetic, and he called again.

Xiao Feng frowned, but he still answered the phone, and before he could speak, the other party roared, "You dare to murder me, you can't find pleasure, right?" ”

"Please, sister, you made a mistake, don't delay my work, I'm busy!"

The voice on the phone was at least twice as loud as just now, "Who do you call sister?" Am I that old? ”

"Don't yell, it's okay to call you a girl, you made a mistake, don't fight!"

Xiao Feng hung up the phone again and continued to work, but the other party was energetic, Xiao Feng didn't care about that, turned off the phone directly, and then continued to load the car until the car was full, and then started the car and drove to a high ground, where a lot of bricks had been piled up, stacked very neatly, he parked the car and began to unload the car.

The red brick kiln factories in the north are all in this way, store part of the dried raw bricks, and keep them for firing after the cold weather, because the raw bricks just cut out are wet, and they will freeze and crack when the weather is cold, and then they will be broken into slag when they are fired, so they will not be made after the frost, so when the weather is hot, the drying is also fast, and a part of it will be stored!

In this way, the car by car finally got to the evening, Xiao Feng unloaded the last car, probably too tired, lying on the steering wheel with his arms, wanting to take a breath, and remembering the woman's call in the afternoon, he couldn't help but take out his mobile phone and turn it on.

I don't know if it's a coincidence or what, he just turned on the phone for a minute, and the phone rang again, I guess the other party should be very bored, otherwise it would be impossible to call so accurately.

"You're not done, are you?"

"Yo, aren't you turning off your phone? Do you believe that I call you every day? You dare not answer my call? ”

Xiao Feng was really speechless, "How can I say that you believe it?" I'm not the person you're looking for, and I didn't pick up anyone for you, I work in a brick kiln......"

After Xiao Feng finished speaking, he felt that it was inappropriate, but as soon as the words came out, he heard the other party sneer, "Brick kiln, do you know what happened if you offended me?" ”

"You're going to blackmail me? It's a civilized society now, aren't you afraid that I'll find a police uncle? ”

"Hehe, Uncle Police can't guard you every day!"

"So what do you want? The phone bill is very expensive, and it takes two cents a minute to make a call! ”

"Anyway, you offended me, you wait, I'll clean you up."

Xiao Feng thought it was funny, you made the wrong call, you are still reasonable, can he get used to such a woman? Besides, at the age of fourteen or fifteen, with strong blood, can you be afraid of her intimidation?

So he said impatiently, "Okay, whatever you want, I'll wait for you, it's okay to hang up, don't delay my time!" ”

Xiao Feng hung up the phone again, started the car, and returned to the dormitory, which was shabby enough, it was built with bricks and mud, only two and a half meters, and the roof was made of wood with a layer of reeds, and the reeds were covered with black plastic sheeting, and then a layer of half of the bricks was pressed.

The inside of the room was covered with mud, and the head of the bed and the door were homemade, and they creaked when they opened.

The room is also simple, a single bed board, with four stacks of bricks supporting the four corners, a small table with bricks on the side, on which are placed toothbrush barrels, a rice bowl, an iron plate, a pair of slippers on the ground, a plastic basin, a towel in the basin, a piece of soap, and a plastic bucket next to it.

There is a handbag hanging on the wall next to it, pulling a clothesline, and there is a ceiling fan hanging in the center of the roof, which is estimated to have been used for a lot of years, and the black fan blades are originally three or four square meters in this room, which seems very narrow.

Xiao Feng put his mobile phone and car keys on the bedboard, put on plastic slippers, took a clean dress from his handbag, carried a basin, and carried a bucket to the room to fetch water and take a shower.

The phone rang again, and this time it was useless, he couldn't hear it, but to be honest, the quality of this phone was really good, so tossed, this power consumption is really small.

Xiao Feng took a bath for more than half an hour, and the phone didn't stop until he came back and called!

Xiao Feng was also angry, threw the bucket and basin on the ground, fished out the washed big pants from the bucket and put them on the clothesline, unscrewed the ceiling fan, and then picked up the phone.

"You're not done, are you? If you have what it takes, come now, and I'll see what you want to do! ”

Xiao Feng's voice stopped the other party at that time, and the other party was stunned for five seconds and didn't speak at that time!

It is said that impulse is the devil, Xiao Feng's clenched fist loosened again in these five seconds, and his tone softened again, "Girl, you really made a mistake, I, Xiao Feng, am not a liar, please don't fight in the future!" ”

"Are you scared? Weren't you fierce just now? You see, I won't take you tonight! ”

"Me!"

The muscles on Xiao Fengqi's face were jumping, "Okay, I'll wait for you, you don't come to count you as cowards!" ”

Xiao Feng hung up the phone again, and childhood memories began to appear in his mind, his father was lazy and drunk, his mother couldn't stand it and left home, his father drank heavily every night, and he died soon, he was helpless at the age of five, and he made a living by picking up rags.

One day, because of a dispute with the waste collector, he was beaten up and cried on the side of the road.

A kind young woman brought him home, and he had a full meal.

The woman asked him why he was crying, and he told him sadly about it, and the woman told him that he had to be strong if he wanted to avoid being beaten.

He also said that he was helpless and had no one to help him.

The woman choked up and asked him, "Do you believe me?" ”

"Auntie, of course I believe in you, because you have fed me."

"Do you believe me in a meal?"

"Well, as long as Auntie feeds me every day, I will listen to Auntie's words and help Auntie do things!"

"Okay, it's a deal!"

Xiao Feng didn't ask what the other party was doing, of course, he asked in vain, and the woman didn't tell him.

Since then, she has followed the woman to learn martial arts, the key is that this woman is really powerful, not only knows martial arts, but also looks at people, and can also look at feng shui, which once made Xiao Feng wonder if he had encountered something unclean.

But she also taught Xiao Feng to read and write, and taught him the principles of being a man, Xiao Feng didn't doubt her anymore, even if she was something unclean, at least she didn't harm herself!

Until this spring, the woman suddenly said goodbye, and the key point was that the woman's home also moved into a stranger.

just asked someone to leave a letter for him, and after Xiao Feng thanked him for his kindness, he came to the street, opened the envelope, and immediately burst into tears!

There is a stack of money and a letter in the envelope, child, I have something to leave, these money are all saved by yourself, I will help you change it to a whole hundred, I don't want the two of us to be inseparable, maybe this method is the best difference, work hard and live well, don't casually show off your kung fu and skills, he will meet you and I will meet one day, take care!

He found out that there was a lot of money to be made in the brick kiln, so he bought the old machine, then bought a second-hand three-wheeled agricultural vehicle, and began his career of moving bricks, and he was determined to save more money to find the woman who had helped him.

"Jingle bells, jingle bells......"

The ringing of the phone pulled his thoughts back, and Xiao Feng answered the phone calmly.

"I'm sorry, please forgive me for being impulsive!"

"Hmph, I'm on my way, you're sorry now? It's late, I'll kill you tonight! ”

"Do we have that much hatred?"

"I just don't like you!"
