When Zhou Zhiqiang got home, he kicked open the door and pushed the bicycle into the house.

When he was young, he was a fun master.

He saw that the eldest brother heard the sound of kicking the door, and ran into the inner room with a smoke, so he put down the dishes and chopsticks and ran outside to see the movement.

Seeing Zhou Zhiqiang angrily pushing the bicycle into the house, he greeted him and said, "Dad, it's time to get off work." ”

Giving birth to a child belongs to the mouse giving the cat a beard and currying favor with the guy who doesn't want to die. He walked over to the front wheel of the bicycle and reached out to take it and help his father set it up.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Zhiqiang flicked the wheel violently and turned him around, he got up and was about to say something, Zhou Zhiqiang had already set up the bicycle, rolled up his arms and sleeves, and was about to attack him.

"What trouble did you cause to Lao Tzu?" Zhou Zhiqiang grabbed the collar of his son and raised his slap.

"I ...... I ......" Ikuko was too scared to speak.

Aunt Zhou sat on the kang, leaned out most of her body, and saw that Zhou Zhiqiang was going to give birth, she shouted: "What's the matter, don't ask clearly, you will beat the child when you enter the house." ”

"You ask him." Zhou Zhiqiang left his son, walked into the house in anger, and said: "If you don't make it clear today, Lao Tzu will discount your legs." ”

Shengzi stood timidly at the door of the house, blinking his eyes and saying, "Dad, you got the wrong person." ”

"Dare to be stubborn." Zhou Zhiqiang waved his hand and wanted to give birth to a child.

"My eldest brother heard the kicking of the door and ran through the window." Raw son dodged and said.

Zhou Zhiqiang's raised hand stopped in mid-air.

He roared, "What do you say! ”

Liu Shoucheng has always been unhappy in recent days, although he knows that he has high blood pressure, and depression may cause blood pressure to rise, he still can't control his emotions, and he is prone to fight with himself.

Take that day, for example.

He is on the day shift, and the police station has no strict rules that he must go to the scene to pick up the car on duty, but he has to call his partner Xiao Huang in the same group to go to the scene to pick up the car together.

Xiao Huang was in his early thirties, and he had just transferred from the army for a few years, and he always honored Liu Shoucheng as his predecessor, and Liu Shoucheng was in charge of everything.

Liu Shoucheng arranged for Xiao Huang to arrive at the south end of the field, and he stayed at the north head.

The train entered the station from the north, and they traveled in the north and south directions, one to the west of the train and the other to the east of the train. In this way, the whole train arrives at the truck and you can see it all.

From afar, he saw two half-grown children, standing in the work area of the public works section muttering, and one of them climbed onto the train.

He got closer and saw clearly, leaving this this as Zhou Zhiqiang's eldest son.

The railway residential areas are concentrated in the north of the town.

Liu Shoucheng has been a public security officer in the town for decades, and he doesn't dare to say that he can name all the employees of the railway units, at least Zhang Wang and Li Zhao can still know.

There is an old saying: nine thieves out of ten railroads, and the remaining one steals coal.

In the early eighties, railway workers had meager incomes and large families, and not only were housing scarce, but even coal for cooking was supplied with tickets.

The town is close to the country's largest steel mill, and it can be said that there are all kinds of materials that arrive every day.

As a result, the active-minded railway workers started a small ninety-nine on scrap iron and coal.

Over time, the habit of holding sheep by hand has been formed. Either exchange money to supplement the family, or take it home to cook on the fire.

Adults have a habit of petty theft, and children should naturally follow suit.

They come home from school and often sneak into the railroad line in groups. What scrap iron, coke, matchmakers, what to steal, it is better to sell it for money, and if it can't be sold for money, take it home and cook on the fire.

Of course, there are also a considerable number of railway workers who strictly educate their children and are not allowed to enter the railway line to steal petty for fear of being injured by the train.

That's a matter of missing arms and legs at every turn, and if you don't get your life into it, you will get into it.

Zhou Zhiqiang is a well-known honest man in the railway, not only does he not take a penny from the public, but he also manages his two sons in a proper manner.

Liu Shoucheng snapped his eyes and recognized Zhou Tiemin, and also saw that he had a cloth pocket in his hand. He didn't think much about it, knowing that the iron people didn't dare to climb the train, at most they came to the line to pick up cinders and chop wood.

He was very interested in the people who climbed on the train, so he wanted to climb on the train to have a look.

You see, he only needs to look at it to recognize whose child it is.

As long as this person is glanced at by Liu Shoucheng, he doesn't have to chase him, the other party has to be arrested obediently.

Why?

If the monk runs away, he can't run to the temple, and Liu Shoucheng can find his house with his eyes closed.

Tie Min shouted this voice, which startled Liu Shoucheng first, his blood pressure instantly increased, his head was dizzy, and he almost fell off the car.

The second is anger, it's not easy for you to learn well as a half-grown child, and it's a matter of minutes to learn badly.

Other people's children stole iron on the line, and when they saw Liu Shoucheng, they couldn't say that they couldn't wait to take off their pants, and cover their faces first, for fear of being recognized by Liu Shoucheng.

It's good that the iron people are bold, and those who are bold forget to be afraid.

If someone else had heard that the child had stolen iron on the railway line and was discovered by Liu Shoucheng, he would have stuffed a box of cigarettes into his pocket first, and then said a lot of New Year's greetings.

Zhou Zhiqiang was the opposite, boasting about Haikou angrily, and flicked his sleeves and left.

Liu Shoucheng looked at Zhou Zhiqiang's back and muttered in his heart.

Okay, you old man Zhou, you don't cry when you don't see the coffin, and you don't give up until you don't see the Yellow River. I'm going to see what you ask me next.

As Da Niu said, Liu Shoucheng has a unique job, he is quiet during the day, he goes to the house at night to block the quilt, catch turtles in the standard urn, and catch a quasi-child.

Liu Shoucheng's arrest of Tiemin is not the main purpose, but it is the result he wants to make Zhou Zhiqiang, who is known for his stubbornness, nod and beg him.

Quite a stick, you have to dig the stick first.

Even the honest old man Zhou was subdued by him, just ask the railway, who else dares to blow up his wings with him.

At present, there is a great good thing in the small town railway residential area.

A large number of workers are recruited within the railway system, and all railway children who have graduated in the new year are within the scope of recruitment.

There is also a special rule: this recruitment will only recruit men, not women.

This is also one of the main reasons why Liu Shoucheng has been holding his breath and harboring fire in the past few days.

His daughter Liu Dongmei did not graduate from junior high school, so she went home to do farm work. Looking at this big good thing, I can't get involved in a hurry.

Liu Shoucheng held his breath and brought a nest to the fire, not only because Liu Dongmei was a girl. The most critical piece of hardware was missed by him.

His family lives in the countryside, and he himself is an urban resident.

He would have had the opportunity to turn his entire family into a town hukou. Thinking that during the natural disaster, the townspeople could not even eat a full meal, he played a clever trick and left the whole family in the countryside. thought that no matter what time it was, the whole family would be able to maintain food and clothing by relying on food rations.

As a result, when his daughters and sons have grown up, it will be more difficult for him to solve the problem of his children's urban household registration than to ascend to the sky.

Liu Shoucheng is a calculating person by nature, and this skill doesn't matter where it is used, it is quasi-spiritual.

Let's talk about Zhou Zhiqiang.

The last thing that the family wants him to worry about is having children. This kid has a flamboyant tongue all day long, and he dares to think about anything other than he wants to do business.

Zhou Zhiqiang has not saved anything else in his life, just this worthless face, what he sees is more important than anything else. He doesn't know a few big characters, but he is inscribed with the word backbone.

Drinking cold hops and spending dirty money is a disease sooner or later.

This is his earnest teaching when the children are just sensible. I didn't expect that before I graduated from junior high school, I learned to steal.

Some people may ask, Zhou Zhiqiang gritted his teeth and stomped his feet in front of Liu Shoucheng and swore a vow that he would not admit that his children went on the railway line to steal iron, why did he go home and give birth.

He has no relationship with Liu Shoucheng, and he believes that his children can't do such bad things.

But he rode a bicycle, and in the few minutes he walked home, he seemed to feel something revealed in Liu Shoucheng's confident gaze.

The big truth that has been handed down in the market can accurately reflect the kindness of the common people.

There is a big truth: if you hit a child on a rainy day, you will be idle anyway. To interpret it in words, it is a long ring of alarm bells.

Regardless of whether it's true or not, let's use this topic as an introduction first, and teach Shengzi a lesson, so that he won't be careless and make mistakes in the future, so that his old face has no place to put it.

The son was afraid of being beaten, so he confessed to his eldest brother Tiemin, which Zhou Zhiqiang never expected.

He raised three children, and the one who was most satisfied with him was Tiemin.

"Go get your big brother back." Zhou Zhiqiang sat down on the kang, took out his cigarette purse and began to roll cigarettes.

He had been smoking old dry tobacco for decades, and it took a lot of effort at this time, but he couldn't roll it into a cigarette.

"Fuck it." Zhou Zhiqiang angrily threw his cigarette purse aside, took out a cigarette from the front door, and lit one for himself first.

In those days, this was a habit for many people. I often carry two kinds of cigarettes in my pocket, one is smoked by myself, such as Zhou Zhiqiang's old dry tobacco, and the other is a façade cigarette used to interact with others.

To put it bluntly, it is a typical manifestation of dying to save face and suffer sin. Spend money to buy good cigarettes for others to smoke, just to make people look down on them.

Tiemin jumped out of the window and kept a heart first.

He didn't dare to run out of the courtyard gate directly, for fear of being blocked by Liu Shoucheng and others.

He crouched under the window and covered himself with a broken sack.

In this way, even if someone looks out of the window, they will not notice that next to a pile of rags, there is a person hidden.

He squatted there tremblingly, scared to pee.

There was a knock at the courtyard door, and Tie Min heard the footsteps, and he held his breath, trembling even more.

As soon as the son entered the courtyard, he saw Tiemin squatting there, covering his upper body with a broken sack, and his lower body was exposed.

"Hey." He playfully lifted the sack pieces, and the iron people were so frightened that they were about to run out.

It didn't matter if Tie Min was running around, he scared his son, he said "Mom" and ran out first.

There is no need to say anything more than to have a child, Tiemin knows, and the alarm is lifted.

Tie Min trotted home, entered the house, and saw his father sitting on the kang head, and finished a cigarette in a few puffs, and was about to leave the cigarette butt, unwrap it and roll it into the dry tobacco.

Zhou Zhiqiang saw Tie Min and was about to speak, but Tie Min bowed and said, "Dad, I was wrong." ”

Zhou Zhiqiang was stunned.

This is the last thing he wants to see, and the most unexpected. He asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"I'm going to the railroad with them today." Tiemin said timidly.

Zhou Zhiqiang's eyes widened, could it be that Liu Shoucheng didn't see the wrong person.

"You ......" Zhou Zhiqiang said and was about to go to the ground, but was dragged by Aunt Zhou and said, "You listen to the child first." ”

Tiemin stood there obediently, unconsciously feeling flustered.

"Tiemin, tell me quickly, what are you doing on the railway line?" Aunt Zhou squeezed her eyes at Tiemin, signaling him to think about it.

"They said that a batch of scrapped sleepers came to the public works section, and I was thinking about picking up some firewood and using it to make a fire." Tiemin didn't dare to lie in front of his parents.

Aunt Zhou's tightly hung heart gradually calmed down because of Tiemin's explanation.

This is a commonplace occurrence in the railway system.

In the railway residential area of the town, whoever sees the old sleepers is like seeing a baby, and they must not miss it.

Zhou Zhiqiang was convinced of Tiemin's words. He said, "You see Liu Shoucheng." ”

"See." Tiemin replied truthfully.

"What did he say you got in the car and stole iron?" At this time, Zhou Zhiqiang, who was angry, had already passed on to Liu Shoucheng.

You shit, open your eyes and talk nonsense, insisting that my son got into the car and stole iron.

"When I got to the sidelines, I saw him coming, and I shouted." Tiemin told the truth again, which aroused Zhou Zhiqiang's dissatisfaction and said: "You are full of food, what are you shouting." ”

Tiemin scratched his head and said, "Someone got into the car, and I was afraid that he would catch me, so I ......."

"Damn, whether people steal iron or not, it's your business." Zhou Zhiqiang's hand slapped on the dining table, and the shaking dishes and chopsticks made a "ding" sound.

"Hurry up and give your dad a hot drink." Aunt Zhou interrupted Zhou Zhiqiang's anger in time.

Before she had time to think about why Tiemin wanted to report to others, Shengzi brought in wine and food from the outhouse, a big bowl of cabbage stewed potatoes, and a plate of sausages and peanuts.

This is the favorite thing to do when giving birth, first, to please the father, and secondly, to take advantage of the unpreparedness, to eat a piece of sausage.

"Dad, the second brother stole your sausages." Yanzi refused to finish the meal, just to wait for her father's small stove to come up.

Zhou Zhiqiang didn't hear what Yanzi said, he took the chopsticks, first sandwiched a piece of sausage for Yanzi, and looked back, Tie Min had already brought in the wine jug.

Zhou Zhiqiang poured himself a cup of Lao Baigan, took a sip of "Ziyu", pointed at Tiemin with chopsticks and said, "Don't do such stupid things in the future." ”

"Got it." Tiemin picked up his own dishes and chopsticks and began to eat.

"People steal iron, get caught and beaten, that's someone else's business, why do you have to talk too much." Zhou Zhiqiang pinched a few peanuts, rubbed off the skin, threw them into his mouth and said: "Liu Shoucheng is a notoriously vicious hand, you were arrested by him for this matter, and you were beaten up." ”

While eating, Tie Min nodded like chicken and broken rice, and was willing to serve his father as a snack and let his father borrow wine to teach him a lesson.

After the family finished dinner, Tiemin packed up the dishes and chopsticks and went to the outhouse to wash.

Aunt Zhou walked out mysteriously, looked back and saw that there were no outsiders, and asked Tie Min in a low voice: "The family's living expenses are gone." ”

"Nope." Tiemin didn't know where his mother got his inspiration, he said, "I don't have ten dollars left, and I will have enough to spend by the end of the month." ”

"Then why are you stealing iron?" Aunt Zhou said, first turned back to look into the house, afraid of being heard by Zhou Zhiqiang.

Tie Min bowed his head and was silent, he couldn't tell his mother, it was all for Wang Li.

"You big shriveled calf, because this matter has affected recruitment, your life will be ruined." Aunt Zhou poked Tie Min's head and reminded Tie Min: "Go upstairs to find your Uncle Zhou, and ask him to go to Liu Shoucheng to ask for a favor." ”

"I didn't steal iron." Zhou Tiemin bited a point.

Catch thieves and stolen goods, catch traitors and catch doubles. He stood next to the line to pee, why did Liu Shoucheng say that he stole iron.

If Da Niu is caught by Liu Shoucheng, it can be proved that he is reporting the news. The big cow is the devil six, and he slipped away when he heard the sound.

No matter when Zhou Tiemin arrives, he has to bite this point, that is, when he saw Liu Shoucheng, he was scared and shouted.

Otherwise, not only will he get into trouble, but he will also have to cause a lawsuit with the big cow, and Tie Min must not do anything to betray his friends.

After finishing his housework, Tiemin returned to the back room, took out his junior high school textbook, and began to review his homework to prepare for the recruitment exam.

Liu Shoucheng is very measured, he pinched the day of the recruitment exam, and was just in time for him to work the night shift.

When the sky was just dawning, he called Xiao Huang and went to Zhou Zhiqiang's house.

"You knock on the door, I'll go and squat in his yard." Liu Shoucheng is quite familiar with the geographical environment of the railway residence.

He also knew the tricks of these half-grown children against him, he pinched a hemp rope thick as a little finger in his hand, and squatted under the window of Zhou's house.

Xiao Huang knocked on the door, and the window of Zhou's house was kicked open.

Zhou Tiemin was wearing a pants vest and jumped off the windowsill, but before he could gain a firm foothold, he was caught by Liu Shoucheng.

"Little bunny, what else do you have to say this time?" Liu Shoucheng's movements were swift, and he made three moves and two styles, and tied Tiemin to a strong knot.
