I was a little surprised, Lao Liu was frugal on weekdays, and he looked like an honest man, if he didn't have to speak, I was afraid that he wouldn't open his mouth for me.

"What's wrong? What's wrong, Lao Liu? ”

"Also, nothing." Lao Liu seems to be deliberately hiding something.

"I'll see if I can help you if you say it, but I've just come out to work and don't have much money."

"Well, it's nothing." Lao Liu said very embarrassed.

"Nothing, you said, what's wrong?"

"Hmm...... That is, it's a shame to say, Uncle Liu and I don't usually have any hobbies, you know. I don't want to add two to my meals on weekdays. But I'm a person who loves to play two cards, and I played some small cards with others last time and lost money. ”

Lao Liu said that he was very annoyed.

I was silent for a moment and asked, "Lost?" ”

"Lost all ......"

"Is there no money to eat? I don't have much to spend on weekdays, I have two hundred here, so I'll borrow you first. ”

I took out two hundred and handed it to Lao Liu, but Lao Liu looked at the money in my hand and was embarrassed, and said lightly: "It's not enough." ”

"Huh? Do you still owe money? ”

"Owe, a little bit."

"How much is a little bit?"

I said in my heart, Lao Liu, Lao Liu, why are you so confused. This gambling thing, nine out of ten bets to lose, you should not have lost all the savings you have accumulated over the years.

Lao Liu lit a cigarette, took a puff irritably, and was silent for a long time.

"What, why is it so heavy?"

I asked.

As soon as the words fell, Lao Liu slapped himself in the face, which scared me.

Hurriedly grabbed Lao Liu's hand and said, "Lao Liu, what are you doing here, you can earn it again when the money is gone, why are you practicing yourself like this." ”

"Xiao Yang, Uncle Liu is confused!"

Hearing this, I probably understood that Lao Liu's wave was planted. Seeing that Lao Liu's eyes were blood-red, he was extremely annoyed, and I vaguely felt that something was wrong.

"How much worse?"

Lao Liu stretched out a slap.

"Five hundred?"

Lao Liu shook his head.

"Five thousand?"

"Five, fifty thousand."

"Fifty thousand!?"

I was almost on the verge of screaming, my eyes widening. I worked in an electronics factory for 1700 a month, and I only had a salary of 2W a year, and it took three years to save without eating or drinking.

Lao Liu, this is obviously being played by someone.

"Lao Liu, where are your savings? Lost them all? ”

"Lost."

"How much did you lose?"

Lao Liu took a puff of smoke as he spoke, and kept shaking his head like a rattle.

I also panicked, looked at Lao Liu's expression, realized that this matter was not so simple, and lit a cigarette.

"You tell the truth, how could you."

"I can't pay it yet, I'm already desperate Xiao Yang, and everyone I can borrow has borrowed it once."

The last sentence, Lao Liu was almost full of tears, and his voice was hoarse.

"Run, Lao Liu, get out of here."

I gave Lao Liu a way, but Lao Liu sighed.

"I can't run, the other party knows the address of my hometown, and my ID card is still pressed on them."

"If you really can't do it, call the police. You tell me honestly, how can you lose so much. ”

Lao Liu looked at the spinning fan on the ceiling, and his thoughts seemed to return to the night of gambling.

Lao Liu revealed that on weekdays in the dormitory, there were a few young men playing cards together, and some time ago they played cards with three people, and won more than 2,000, which made Lao Liu very happy.

More than 2,000 is a month's salary.

One of the young men is called Liang Wencong, who is also welded in the electronics factory, this guy is also easy to block, and one night he played cards with Love and Lao Liu. One day, while playing cards, he accidentally talked to a nearby casino, saying that one of his brothers had won more than 20,000 yuan in one night.

At first, Lao Liu didn't care, but Liang Wencong took the two young people in the dormitory to support Lao Liu vigorously.

said: Uncle Liu's playing level is one of the best they have ever seen. His brother doesn't play cards as much as half of Uncle Liu's, and he can win 20,000 yuan. If Uncle Liu passes, he must not kill the Quartet.

Lao Liu was praised very much, but he said that he had never been to those places in the casino, and he usually only found a few old men in the commissary to play in his hometown, purely as a pastime, and he didn't dare to really gamble.

Liang Wencong proposed, this is easy to do, as long as Uncle Liu wants to play two, let his brother lead the way.

Lao Liu refused at first, but Liang Wencong and everyone encouraged him vigorously. It's basically just two games in the past, and it's really impossible to stop.

Lao Liu was very excited, thinking that if he could really go to the casino to earn tens of thousands of yuan, seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival was still a few months away, he would go home and buy some good ones for his wife and son, which would be regarded as a bright face.

But after thinking about it, it was still inappropriate, I had never been to the casino in the past, and I didn't know the bottom of my heart, so I still politely refused.

Liang Wencong saw that he couldn't persuade him, so he stopped persuading him.

But in the next few days, the three people in the dormitory rejected Lao Liu's card game on the grounds that they had no money.

Lao Liu is good at playing cards, which is good, if he doesn't play cards for a few days, Lao Liu is more uncomfortable than eating.

Finally, Lao Liu couldn't help it, so he asked Liang Wencong about the casino.

As soon as Liang Wencong saw the play, he introduced his brother to him, and under the leadership of Liang Wencong, Lao Liu came to an underground casino in the suburbs.

It's good not to go, it's out of control when you go, since Lao Liu went to the casino, he can win hundreds almost every day. Even smoking has swelled, and in the past, I smoked Hongta Mountain, but now I have to start with lotus.

Liang Wencong even praised Lao Liu for being amazing, calling it a gambling monster, saying that the entire Jiangcheng City was afraid that it would not be able to find a few opponents.

Lao Liu really thought that he had a bit of a talent for playing cards, and gradually lost himself.

Just last week, Liang Wencong said that his brothers formed a big picture, and in the past, they were all factory owners, and these bosses had money, but they all played bigger. If Uncle Liu wants to enter the game, the quasi-guarantee can be arranged.

Lao Liu is ruthless, and he plans to do a big vote and win him more than 100,000 or 200,000. I won a few thousand dollars in the casino before, and then I took out the tens of thousands of dollars I had saved over the years.

As a result, Lao Liu was made a game that night, and he lost all his money, almost picked up his pants, and owed a lot of debts to the casino.

Lao Liu's eyes were red when he said that, and now Lao Liu has long lost the vigor he had when he first gambled, and his whole person has fallen a lot. Every day, people come to collect debts, and the phone calls are made to the house.

Those people threatened his wife, if Liu Qingshan didn't pay back the money, don't blame them for coming to the door.

Now in order to pay off gambling debts, Lao Liu plans to sell the one-third of an acre of land at home.

Hearing this, I sighed Lao Liu's sorrow.

"After the accident, what about Liang Wencong?"

"They are in a gang, and now I don't dare to go back to the dormitory, threatening to stomp my hand if I don't pay back."

Lao Liu's hands were shaking when he spoke, and it was really not ancient in these years.

"Alas, Lao Liu, your matter is beyond my ability, I suggest that you pack up your baggage and leave overnight, and take your children to a relative's house to hide first."

I patted Lao Liu on the shoulder and comforted: "Now, don't gamble anymore in the future, it's the so-called ten bets and nine losses." An An is an honest person and earns money to support his family. ”

"Honest people, they will bully honest people, these days people are good at being bullied, and they don't have money to even bark at you twice."

Lao Liu pounded the floor indignantly, listening to Lao Liu's scolding, and suddenly I didn't know how to respond.

Night.

When I got home, I couldn't sleep after thinking about it. Although Lao Liu's gambling was wrong first, what is even more hateful is that Liang Wencong's group of people made a game to harm honest people. Life is long, a life is so long, can you guarantee that there is no bad friend around you?

Even if Lao Liu doesn't gamble, those wicked people will use all kinds of methods to trap good people.

When I think back to the society I once longed for, I now realize that it is so sinister.

In the midst of a confusion of thoughts, I fell into a deep sleep.

This night I dreamed of Ono again, Ono slowly climbed into my bed, soft against my side, she looked like a cat, and made me want to move.

A faint fragrance entered my nostrils, and I felt a gentle body close to me.

When I opened my eyes, it was not a dream! Ono's bright eyes were staring at me.

I suddenly became energetic and looked at Ono with some shock: "Ono, when are you coming back, why are you in my room...... Do what? ”
