Chapter 14: Intrigues

Although Nemo and I have dark skin and yellow skin, it does not affect our friendship, and my father can't hide his admiration for Nemo.

Once, when my father went out to settle accounts, it was nearly dusk when he returned, and a black child ran in front of him, and he passed by his father, and the father only said that the children were chasing and did not care, but just a few steps, the black child ran back again, took the wallet and said to his father, "Sir, your wallet has fallen." The father took the wallet, and before he could say thank you, the child ran away.

The father opened the wallet and found that it was missing ten pounds, and he couldn't help but be interested in this black child, and being able to take the wallet from the father's old pocket at the moment of passing by can show that this black child is not simple. The father followed the child not far away, and followed him to his door.

The little black boy was holding up ten pounds and begging Anne, "Doctor, my mother has a very serious fever, please come and save her, I have money." ”

Anne said softly, "It's already dark, and I don't dare go out alone." Your mother has a fever, it's not very serious, and I'll be able to go again tomorrow. Then the father came in and said to Anne, "I'll go with you." When the black child saw it, he realized that he had stolen from the doctor's husband, and he bowed deeply to his father: "Sir, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have stolen your ten pounds." Mom Da Shu is sick, we don't have the money to go to the doctor, I went to three hospitals, the doctor there knows that I don't have money and won't go to the doctor, I beg you, let Dr. Annie go, or Da Shu will die. I'm willing to bear any consequences for my theft, as long as I can save Da Sook. ”

When her father returned, Anne was no longer afraid, and accompanied by her father, went to the shack where the black children lived. His mother, Da Shu, had a lung fire, coughed incessantly, had a high fever and was in a coma, and the mining area was worried that her disease would be contagious, so they drove her out, and did not even give her a big son, not to mention that Da Shu was sick, and even lost her job.

Anne injected Da Shu and prescribed a few herbs, and Da Shu's body temperature dropped, and she gradually recovered her health.

This little black kid was naturally Nemo. Whenever he talked about Nemo, his father praised him very much, saying that he sought medical treatment for his mother and was filial piety; Dare to take risks, is to be brave; The skill of theft is superb, and it is for wisdom; It is righteousness to steal and not to be greedy; Timely confession of mistakes is for the sake of faith. Anne was also surprisingly fond of Nemo, and told me to take care of the black child.

So every time I went out hunting, I would call Nemo, Nemo's knife skills were so good that he could slaughter a cow or a pig in a few moments, which was impressive, and his father praised Nemo for his rebirth.

Nemo also wanted to learn a gun, but when he picked up the gun, he didn't pick up the knife calmly, and he was a lot more impetuous, I thought he was not the material for the gunner, Nemo was very annoyed, in fact, I later figured out that it was not Nemo's poor marksmanship, but that we were all different in talent.

I gave Nemo the vast majority of the prey I hunted each time, and many times, I only brought home one or two birds. These prey improve the lives of the Nemo family. Da Sook is full of gratitude to us. As a good friend, Nemo never thought about being embarrassed to take my prey, but often took out one or two bullets for me when I ran out of bullets, and I believe that these few bullets must have been painstakingly obtained by Nemo.

Nemo and I were very happy to meet in the city, but when we heard that I asked Nemo to steal Luna, Nemo shook his head like a rattle, "Brother Bug, no, I stole Mr. Shen before, and Mr. Shen forgave me, saying that I had to do it as a last resort, and I can't steal it again in the future." ”

I nodded Nemo's head hard, "When will your head open up?" ”

Nemo gave me a blank look, craned his neck and said, "You just can't steal." ”

I was thinking about how to convince the black boy, "Of course strangers can't steal, and it's not strangers that I'll let you steal." Do you know who she is? ”

"Who?"

"My wife."

"Ah, my future sister-in-law?"

"Of course, so it's a joke between the two of us, to be exact, understand?"

Nemo's head finally opened up, "Brother Bug, I understand when you say that." ”

"Just get it, go ahead."

Nemo agreed, and hurried after Luna.

Nemo is such a genius, it would be a waste not to be a thief in this life, I watched him from afar, and he just passed by Luna and staggered back.

I can't help but sigh that maybe God is fair, He gives everyone a gift, but few people can take this talent to the extreme.

My father once said that when he was in the navy in China, he heard people talk about the legend of a grand thief at that time.

This thief's surname is Li, the third in the family, and the people of the time called him Li San, because he is as light as a swallow, so the people in the rivers and lakes call him Li San.

This Li San is a native of Xian County, Hebei Province, and has practiced martial arts since he was a child, especially good at light body kung fu, climbing walls and trees, which is as easy as a hand. At the age of nineteen, Li San followed the Wuqiao acrobatic class to Luoyang to perform arts, but the class owner lost a piece of jade, suspected that Li San stole it, and drove Li San out of the acrobatic class in a fit of anger. In Luoyang, with no relatives, in order to make a living, Li San really started stealing. Although Li San is a thief, he has set a few rules for himself, one is not to steal the poor, but only those high-ranking officials; The second is to show that the Ming people do not do dark things, and every time they steal, they will leave a note to show their identity; The third is that the stolen property is never self-contained, and most of it is given to the poor, so that it has the reputation of a thief.

Once, Li San saw Luoyang's police commander Bai Jianwu on the street, domineering and oppressing an elderly man, and his heart was filled with righteous indignation, so he sneaked into Bai Jianwu's house that night, stole his pistol, and left a note, "Treasure thief swallow Li Sanye!" Bai Jianwu only saw this note early in the morning, he was annoyed and even more frightened, and he was afraid that he would lose face if it was spread, so he swallowed his anger and refused to pursue it.

Seeing that Bai Jianwu didn't dare to make a statement, Li San was even more unscrupulous, and repeatedly sneaked into the mansions of those officials and rich men to steal treasures, and blatantly left notes. After those stolen treasures were sold, some of them were given to the poor, and some of them were squandered even more, until there were so many people offended that the police began to arrest them everywhere.

It is said that in order to escape the pursuit, the swallow Li San went to the Shaolin Temple incognito.

This Li San relied on his light body kung fu and talent for stealing, and he really became famous, so that although people disappeared, the story of the swallow Li San on the rivers and lakes is still circulating, and some people speculate that the fame of "Swallow Li San" is too great, and some thieves have also taken up the name of Li San.

Looking at Nemo, I can't help but sigh at Nemo's talent, he was born a poor boy with a low status, but God is not partial, he gave him a magical knife skill and a wonderful hand to pick up stars, but he did not invite fame and profit, life is still hard, and the greatest happiness is only to follow me to hunt, and after catching the prey, his knife skills will be slightly revealed, as for the theft, he has never used it, and this time it was only two shots. From this, I admired my father's influence on this black boy even more, and actually taught such a wild boy to be an old master, with a pure heart and a mouth full of morality. Whenever I have an idea, the first thing that comes to his mind is the old master's set of things.

If you want me to say, my father should not grow vegetables at all, and it would be more suitable to be a private school teacher.

As I thought, Nemo walked up to me, Luna in his hand. The Luna people were wearing red, and the wallet was actually red, I was overjoyed, and stretched out my hand to open it, Nemo asked, "Brother Bug, are you sure it's not for money?" ”

I looked at the contents and replied, "Of course."

"I don't think your eyeballs are about to fly out."

"Is there one?"

"Yes, absolutely, it's all green."

"Pull it down, I'm just going to get my stuff back." With that, I took a bracelet out of my wallet and shook it in front of Nemo.

"You still said that you didn't steal, you didn't steal money, you stole jewelry." Nemo muttered.

"Cut, this is the stuff on the stall, it's not worth a few dollars, I just can't see this girl's face." As I spoke, I put the bracelet in my pocket.

Somehow, although I got the bracelet, I wasn't very happy, especially when I saw Nemo's suspicious eyes, I casually stuffed the wallet into Nemo's hand, "Go ahead, give it back to her, and then brother will take you to dinner." What do you want to eat? ”

"Noodles."

"Well, then we'll eat that one," I said, gesturing to a Chinese noodle restaurant not far away, "I'll wait for you there." ”

"Well," Nemo relieved himself when he saw that I was really not interested in seeing money, and took his wallet and ran in the direction of Luna.

I went to a Chinese noodle restaurant and asked for two bowls of noodles and sat down by the window. Stealing wasn't a problem for Nemo, and it wasn't a problem, and after a while, the guy was running back again.

Nemo sat down in front of me, and the guy served two bowls of steaming noodles, and Nemo and I picked up our chopsticks and ate them.

Nemo was just eating, and I was fiddling with the bracelet, which was clearly an ordinary bracelet, a few pearls strung together, and a bend of metal moon shining in the sun, why would Luna be so obsessed with getting her. Hehe, it's just that it's still in my hands, I'll play for a few days and I'll throw it into the water when I'm tired of playing, just don't let Luna, the girl, get it.

As I was thinking, I saw the red dress again through the window, and I chuckled in my heart, and quickly turned my head away, pretending not to see it.

Nemo shouted, "Sister-in-law, where are we?" ”

By this time, Luna had already seen us and walked quickly over to this side.

I was horrified, "Nemo, what are you calling her?" ”

"Sister-in-law."

"How did you get the wallet back?"

"That's what I ran over to her. My sister-in-law is fine, she is still smiling at me, she is so beautiful when she smiles......"

I nearly fainted and shouted, "Nemo, you bastard!" ”

Luna had already walked into the noodle shop, and I stood up, pushed open the window, jumped out, and ran away.

Luna shouted from behind her, "Stop me." After saying that, she chased after me, but she was wearing high heels, so naturally she couldn't catch up with me. While rejoicing, Luna shouted behind her, "Catch the thief!" ”

I felt that the eyes of all the people on the street were shooting at me, and I shuddered, this girl is ruthless enough, if a few righteous and brave people surround her, and attack it in groups, and add up their fists and feet, the mud step will become a mud step.

Worse still, Nemo followed Luna after me.

There was an alley on the side of the street, and I swooped in.

I was dumbfounded when I turned into the alley, this is a dead end, on both sides of the flat high walls, even the swallow Li San can only be caught here. Luna, Nemo, and some of the others had blocked the alley and were looking at me with a smile.

I walked over with a sneer, "I'm sorry, everyone, it's all a misunderstanding." ”

Before I finished speaking, Nemo jumped up and hugged me, "Haha, sister-in-law, I caught him." ”

I was anxious, "Nemo, you bastard, what are you from?" ”

The onlookers were gossiping, "This thief is too bold." "Well, stealing in broad daylight." "Yes, she should be sent to the police station."

Luna looked at me with a smile and reached out to me, "Give me back the things first?" ”

I pushed Nemo away and obediently took the bracelet out, "Tell me first, how did you get Nemo to rebel?" ”

Luna asked rhetorically, "How did you get him to steal me, and that's how I let him catch you." ”

I pointed at Luna angrily, "Insidious, really insidious." ”

Luna gave me a blank look, "That's not as sinister as you, and instructed Nemo, a little kid, to steal from me." I should send you to the police now. ”

Nemo shouted, "Sister-in-law, this is not good, aren't we joking?" ”

I had a flash of inspiration, sat down on the ground, hugged Luna's legs and howled, "Gentlemen, you give me a review, she is my wife, I pay my twenty pounds a month on time, she only gives two pennies a month for pocket money, I want to smoke a cigarette and have no money, I want to eat a piece of candy without money, I want to give my parents a little pension money, today I took out her bracelet and wanted to sell it for some money to honor my mother, she actually said I was a thief, and deceived you to arrest me." Now I am calling the heavens and the heavens unforgiving, and the earth and the earth not spiritual. ”

With that, I flipped my pocket over, and two pennies fell to the ground with two thuds.

Luna frowned, "Nonsense, who is your wife." ”

"Friends, you see, she doesn't even admit that it's my wife, she dislikes me so much. Brother Nemo, do you think she's your sister-in-law? ”

Nemo nodded, "yes." ”

The onlookers suddenly realized, turned their guns to Luna, and counted them down.

"You woman has gone too far, husband and wife are equal at home, how can you discipline your husband so strictly, only give one penny a month, and you can do it."

"Yes, the last thing that shouldn't be that your man has that filial piety, you don't even support your parents-in-law, don't forget, you also have a day to be a mother-in-law."

"Oh, this man earns twenty pounds a month, and he is really capable, how can this woman not be satisfied."

I couldn't laugh in my heart, yes, the weak are always easily forgiven, just now Luna took advantage of people's sympathy, and now the feng shui is turning.

I had to hold Luna's legs, and Luna tried to break free but I hugged her tighter. "Wife, you can't go."

In the midst of everyone's accusations, Luna finally compromised, "Okay, I'm not leaving, you let go of me first." ”

"Then you say, are you my wife?"

Luna gritted her teeth and replied, "Yes." ”

"Should I sell that bracelet to honor my parents?"

Luna muttered, "Yes." ”

"Then you give me the bracelet." With that, I reached out.

Luna impatiently replied, "Okay," and put the bracelet back in my palm.

"Wife, I'm hungry and have no money to eat, so invite me to eat."

Luna nodded, "Okay".

"Wife, you're so nice, I'll kiss you." I got up from the ground and reached out to kiss Luna, who pushed my face away in disgust, "Don't go too far. ”

I grabbed her arm, "Well, wife, I'll listen to you, go home and kiss again." ”

So, in the eyes of everyone, we got back together, and we were really a loving couple.
