Chapter 16 Hu Xiaohu's life experience
It takes a little skill to start a fire on a honeycomb coal stove, and if you can't ignite the honeycomb coal with the help of a gas stove, you need to use a fire starter such as newspapers, tree branches, and a fan to ignite the honeycomb coal quickly.
There is only one gas stove, and the two fire eyes have already been occupied, it takes time to burn and fry tofu, and it also takes time to stew meat, so Hu Xiaohu had to use the most laborious method to ignite the fire directly.
Fortunately, Hu Xiaohu is experienced, and he is quite old, after lighting the newspaper with a match, he casually stuffed a few thick branches into the hearth, and didn't even use a fan, just lying on the ground and blowing at the hearth.
The lung capacity of a fat person may be larger than that of ordinary people, and the honeycomb coal stove was quickly ignited under a few breaths of fairy qi from the little fat man.
Hu Xiaohu's face was also stained with some black ashes, the weather was still very hot, and the fat man's sweat was more than ordinary people, so the fat face was ploughed out of the ravines by the sweat that flowed down, and was wiped with the back of his hand, and the whole face was spent.
With a small flower face without washing, he began to cook tea and eggs meticulously, and it seems that this little fat man is full of interest in the work in the kitchen.
Until he heard that everyone was concerned about his family, Hu Xiaohu did not shy away from it, and lightly stated the situation in his family.
"Dead?!" Hearing these two words, the other two people in the courtyard were involuntarily stunned.
Looking at Hu Xiaohu's little flower's face without shock, Yao Yuan couldn't believe the meaning of the little fat child's words: "What? Your dad, your mom? ”
Hu Xiaohu nodded.
Xie Lao Pao'er asked in surprise: "My grass, then you are, you are an orphan?" ”
Hu Xiaohu raised the back of his hand again and wiped the sweat on his forehead: "Yes, the car accident happened eight years ago." ”
Hua Xiaohu's face didn't show much sadness under the sun, maybe eight years was enough time to wipe away the pain in his heart, but the other two fell into silence.
After being quiet for a minute, Yao Yuan hurriedly reminded: "Fatty, look at the time, the tea eggs are almost enough to be hot, just boil the pot, you can't stew for a long time, you have to keep the tenderness of the eggs, after leaving the fire, soak in the tea soup to absorb the flavor, you can taste one first, is it the same as yesterday's taste." ”
Hu Xiaohu nodded, and agreed crisply: "It shouldn't be wrong, I smell it and it looks like it." ”
"Are you going to school now?" Xie Lao Pao'er asked with concern, and pulled the conversation back.
Hu Xiaohu rolled his eyes at Xie Laopao'er: "I don't want to go to school, but the neighbors don't do it, and the teachers in the school are also keeping an eye on it, so I should go to the first year of junior high school if I don't start school." ”
"When you go to school, you still go to the night market to sell this thing?" Xie Lao Pao'er pointed to the tea eggs in the pot.
"I can sell it when I go to school, not to mention the summer vacation now, I usually go out to the stall at night when I go to school, and I earn more than ten or twenty yuan a day, which is better than going to work in a month!" Hu Xiaohu is right.
Xie Lao Pao'er gave a thumbs up to the little fat man: "Tut, you can do it, you are this!" ”
"Fatty, are you particularly short of money? How do you think of selling this on the street? Yao Yuan was a little curious.
Hu Xiaopang replied confidently: "No one in my family earns a salary, don't I have to find a way to make some money, besides, it's not a hassle to boil some eggs, and you can earn an income by playing every day, how good." ”
Yao Yuan couldn't help but also reached out and gave the little fat man a thumbs up.
This ideological realm is much stronger than the two classmates who can't mention it.
Regarding the topic that Hu Xiaohu is actually an orphan, no one dares to mention it next, this kind of thing is a great tragedy for anyone, but Hu Xiaohu is very strong, at least he refuses to show a trace of sadness in front of Yao Yuan and Xie Laopao'er.
Yao Yuan was also a little puzzled, such a big thing, falling on such a child, ordinary people must not be able to bear it, but from the little fat child's speech and demeanor and cheerful personality, he did not feel decadent or pessimistic at all, I don't know what kind of living environment has created such an optimistic and open-minded mentality?
The method of making tea eggs is very simple, and the little fat man has completely mastered it after a practical operation, and then he refuses to be idle, and takes the initiative to start helping to make stew.
What a chubby boy!
……
Five hundred meters west of the Qianjiakou intersection is the famous ethnic village nearby.
It is said to be an ethnic village, but in fact, there are people living here who come to Pingcheng from all over the world to beg for a living, and there are all kinds of people in a large bungalow area.
In a dilapidated and low-rise bungalow at the east end of the village, less than ten square meters in size, there are six people living in it.
A few bed boards are supported by a bench, forming a large bunk, which occupies more than half of the room, except for this large bunk, there is no longer any furniture in the room, only a few pairs of stinky shoes at the foot of the bed, which exudes a bad smell all day long.
Xu Zhiyong rested his head on his hands, looked up at the roof, and had been lying motionless on the Chase bunk all morning.
Last night at the Qianjiakou intersection, I almost missed again, but fortunately, Brother Qiangzi, who took the wind, saw the opportunity quickly and blocked it, so that he had a chance to get out.
This kind of thing has happened several times, and the new leading brother Hei Qing is a little too reckless, not at all like he said that he had burglarized the door, forcing his little brother to shoot continuously at the door of the house, which has already committed a taboo in this industry.
Recently, every time I go to the street to sweep work, I always feel that someone next to me looks at me wrongly, and if it goes on like this, the six of my little brothers, especially myself, have to register in this area.
I don't know how Hou Ye would put his group of people in the hands of such a mallet?
Last night and the other day were completely out of the wind, and according to my little knowledge, I also knew that in this case, I had to avoid the limelight, and even needed to completely change the environment.
But this new boss Hei Qing, who is a fool and stunned, just lost the wind last night, and forced the little brother to go to the street early this morning.
Xu Zhiyong, who already felt that something was wrong, had an idea, and stayed at home under the pretext that he had broken his foot last night.
It can't go on like this, although he is too young to be punished by law, but Xu Zhiyong knows that there is now a provision for re-education through labor, in case it is folded in the hands of Lei Zi again, if it is not done well, he will be escorted to the suburbs for labor reform, and Shahe Farm is prepared for people like him.
I don't know if this continues, can my gang survive until Hou Ye comes out? ,
The more I think about it, the more annoyed I become, and I scratch my little @ flat head hatefully, it's not okay to go on like this, I have to think of a way, if Hei Qing continues to be so nonsense, I can't say that I have to pick up that little brother and find another way to live.
……
Here, Xu Zhiyong was thinking carefully and constantly calculating, and over there, Qiangzi and Hei Qing were also muttering.
The two of them stayed by a soda stall and bought two bottles of the Arctic Ocean but were not in a hurry to open and drink, but just reached out and rolled the soda bottles embedded in the huge ice cubes back and forth, just to covet the coolness brought by the ice cubes.
"Brother Qing, are you sure you saw King Gu Yan last night?" Hadron asked in a whisper.
"That's right, it's him, even if he changes into civilian clothes, I can recognize him, that big black face looks like a special baogong, it's so easy to recognize!" Hei Qing said hatefully.
"It's not going to be just for us, is it?" Hadron was a little nervous.
Hei Qing glanced at the strong son, reached out and picked up the bottle of Arctic Ocean, put it to his mouth and bit it open with his teeth, and then drank half a bottle in one go: "It's not like it, Ya is the director, you don't need him to keep an eye on us, it is estimated that the point is just in time for him to pass by after work, right?" ”
Qiangzi was not convinced by Hei Qing's explanation: "Let's not be careless, didn't Xiao Yong just be arrested by that grandson a few days ago, don't register with the police." ”
Hei Qing disagreed: "Don't scare yourself, Xiao Yong didn't call it a problem at all last time, I didn't see the money that was called stealing, didn't the police let people go at that time." ”
Seeing that Qiangzi was not too convinced, Hei Qing began to speak seriously: "Qiangzi, let me tell you, let's go on this road for another month at most, and when I recognize the eldest brother in the circle, we will immediately flash people, I will take you to the south to make a fortune, who has the kung fu to play with these little rabbit cubs?" ”
Qiangzi's eyes lit up: "That's okay, I'll listen to you, but let's be careful this month, don't make the mess that your Hou Ye handed over to you." ”
Hei Qing was dissatisfied: "Damn! Don't force these little rabbits to hurry up and get money, what are we going to eat and drink in the south? Just remember, don't get too close to these cubs, just don't leak our bottom line. ”
Qiangzi stared at several figures across the road, and said "cut" in his mouth: "Don't worry, you can't!" ”
