On weekend mornings, the Carter siblings went out en masse to mend the fence in the yard.

Mrs. Wood, diagonally opposite, came from a distance with a trolley, stopped in front of the door, and said, "Last night, I saw Scott being picked up by a car. ”

Elena smiled, "Exactly, he won't come to disturb us." ”

Mrs. Wood was a nice man, and reminded, "You can't live without him." ”

Elena nodded: "He'll be fine." ”

Mrs. Wood pushed the cart and walked slowly diagonally across the board.

Martin came out of the house with his toolbox, looked at the slightly worn wood in front of him, and began to command blindly: "Hall, take your shovel and dig a hole." Harris, find a ruler and measure the height. Lily, give me a hand. ”

He found the hand saw and sawed up the wood.

Suddenly, someone blocked the sun.

Martin looked up and saw that it was Lily: "Idiot, what to do?" ”

Lily held out her hand: "Stupid as a stupid pig, give me the saw." ”

Martin remembered that Elena had mentioned that Lily was the best at Carter's handwork, and handed it over to him and asked, "Can you do it?" ”

Lily skillfully sawed up the wood, and her mouth was not idle: "I can make it your brother, exactly the same!" ”

Martin didn't stop her, but said, "I have a handicraft to make." Then he thought of Lily's age: "Forget it, you're not suitable. ”

Lily raised her voice: "Look how I sawed this piece of wood into your brother!" ”

"You'd better not brag, idiot." Martin decided to get James a companion: "You can't do it, I'll dig a hole in the backyard and bury you." ”

Lily winked her eyes, "Then listen to you every night to send Elena." ”

With a whoosh, Elena threw the broken rope and smashed it into Lily's head.

Lily quickly shut her mouth and went about her manual work.

Martin took a shovel and helped Hall dig the pit.

The body seems to have muscle memory, and it is very skillful to do it.

It doesn't seem difficult to dig a pit and bury people.

After most of the morning, a wooden fence was erected on the missing part of the barbed wire fence in the yard.

All the wood has a peculiar shape, erected in the earthen kang, as if it is conquering the earth.

Lily Carter's masterpiece.

Martin and Elena were tied up with rope and attached to the barbed wire, which was not very aesthetically pleasing, but functionally fine.

The main thing is not to be afraid of thieves.

Worthless broken wood, Scott should not be interested.

Martin washed his hands, drove out of the car, and said, "Idiots, I'm in for a treat at noon." ”

The four of Elena got into the car, and Martin drove to the nearby fried chicken burger joint, which averaged five or six dollars per person, enough for two idiots, Lily and Hall, to hold out until their eyes rolled and their mouths spitted out.

After eating, Harris bought some old magazines from a nearby bookstore.

Back at Carter's house, Martin sat on the couch, pulled out a magazine, and said to Elena, "You calculate the rent." ”

Then, he turned to Lily, "Idiot, shut up! ”

Lily's words blocked her throat, and she coughed and forcibly defended: "I didn't say anything. ”

Elena went to the ledger.

Martin flipped through the magazine, and what he picked up turned out to be this astronomical magazine, and the page he turned to was introducing a newly discovered star.

It seems like a lot of new stars are discovered every year?

Martin picked up the magazine and shook it at Harris: "Studied astronomy? ”

Harris was reading a book carefully and didn't raise his head: "Forgot? I am a member of the Astronomical Society. Don't let me introduce you to the stars, I'm in a public middle school. ”

Elena took a notebook and came out of the bedroom, and said while flipping through it: "I don't know how Emma talked to Jack, the rent is $1,000 for half a year." ”

Martin said that he was sure that he would talk in bed, and said, "I'll transfer it to you on Monday." ”

Just like Falck, Elena never said politely to Martin when she wanted to get up, and immediately glared: "Idiot, you want to learn from the bastard Jack to get the bill?" This is until the end of March, and it's almost June! ”

Lily finally seized the opportunity: "Because of the debt, he will feel happier when he sends you." ”

The astronomical magazine was thrown out and smashed in Lily's face, and Martin simply said, "I'll give you $2,000." ”

Elena was very generous: "I don't want interest." ”

"I made an appointment with a friend in the afternoon, and you continue." Martin got up and went out.

Elena lifted the basket of clothes and followed Martin to the next door to pack up the clothes Martin had changed.

The washing machine here was sold many years ago, and Martin's dirty clothes were washed by Elena.

Martin got used to it, didn't talk, got in the car and drove to downtown Atlanta, to the café last time.

Barkley, a reporter for the Atlanta Star, was already waiting here, saw Martin, and said, "I got some news. ”

Martin pulled out the $200 he had prepared and pushed it to Barkley: "It's yours." ”

Last time, Martin asked Monica's freelance journalist friend about the market price for reporters to inquire about news and buy materials.

Barkley put away the money and said, "In a few days, one of the directors of the Atlanta David Society, a man named Milton, who is the most hard-line conservative opinion leader in the Methodist Society, will attend a big skills training press conference. ”

He opened his bag, took out the collected materials, and handed them to Martin: "The statement that provoked the protest of the women's union - that women are only subordinates of the family, and that the will of the family must be followed in terms of sexuality and procreation, is what he has publicly expressed. ”

Martin took a quick look: "This guy has said tougher right-wing rhetoric in the past? ”

Barkley nodded: "Yes, he belongs to the die-hard among conservatives. ”

Martin went to look at Milton's information, and Barkley provided nothing secret, most of which the reporter was able to find.

One of the passages caught Martin's attention, two of Milton's three marriages failed because of the woman's cheating, and the woman gave an interview to the media when she sued for divorce, saying that Milton was useless.

Martin thought for a moment and said, "Barkley, my friend, I may need you to do me a little favor in a few days. ””

Barkley looked at the money, and then at Martin's very civilized clothes, without any hesitation: "We are friends, we must help with this little favor, if you need it one day, give me a call and be on call." ”

Martin gestured to make a call: "Wait for my call." ”

Barkley took the money from the civilized man and left the café in a happy mood.

I was originally a tabloid storyteller, making money, not chilling.

Martin came to the club and went to the office to find Vincent: "Boss, I have carefully read various newspapers in Atlanta these days, and the media no longer mentions the name of the House of the Beast, which is not conducive to the further expansion of the club's popularity. ”

Vincent was very concerned about the tangible benefits of his popularity, saying: "We can't really sue the Methodist, and it's not worth the time and expense of civil litigation." ”

At the last press conference, Martin's complaint was loud, and he actually sent a lawyer's letter.

Martin said: "Boss, the Methodist Association took the initiative to trouble us last time, why can't we take the initiative to trouble them?" We went to protest to the Methodist bastards and then called the media reporters. ”

"Let the media hype up again?" Vincent thinks it's okay to do: "Are you sure?" ”

"The last time I saved the board of directors of the Women's Club, Kelly Gray, Ms. Gray hired me to be a part-time social investigator for the Women's Society, and we can borrow the name of the Women's Association," Martin added. ”

Vincent thought about Martin's key role in the club's explosion and responded: "Yes, personnel costs are hourly wages. ”

Martin said that the one who took the initiative to find the door was really worthless.
