Chapter 54: The Prodigal Son's Return and His Money Will Not Be Changed (II)

Xiaoqiang really didn't break his promise. Since then, he has handed over all his subordinates to Zhao Dazui, and rarely goes out to fight and kill, which is a ritual away from "washing hands in a golden basin". In addition to getting up and sleeping in the middle of the night on the fifth watch, and wholeheartedly practicing "Seven Star Mantis Boxing" with Zhan Zhizhan, he just found time to do his coal pouring business, and even the "curly" family went to less and less.

Whenever Zhan Zhizhan and "Curly Hair" drank and chatted about their childhood, he complained about it. Zhan Zhizhan had no other way but to persuade him: "Sixth brother, you are talking about this, do you mean that your brother robbed your little brother?" Sixth brother, if your brother says something straightforward, don't scold your brother. That Xiaoqiang is indeed a piece of martial arts material, let's not have the beauty of adults. There are so many people under your hands, one more is not too strong, and one less is a lot stronger! Xiaoqiang may have won some awards in the national competition before, don't we still have to blow it! Xiao Qiang may have become a martial arts master or something, isn't the sixth brother even more bullish. ”

Whenever this happens, "Curly Hair" always stares at him and says, "Eighth child, you don't have to talk to me." Why was your sixth brother such a small-bellied person before? ”

After washing his hands in the "curly-haired" golden basin, "Old Gaoli" is indeed a discerning person, he has heard of Xiaoqiang's extraordinary skills for a long time, so he tried his best to recruit him under the door, became his personal bodyguard and driver, and became a confidant. It is said that "Old Gaoli" used some brains and went to great lengths to recruit Xiaoqiang into his door. Even if it is not as legendary as Liu Bei and Liu Xuande's "three visits to the thatched house" to invite Zhuge Liang out of the mountain, it is quite touching.

The rafters that come out rot first! In the blink of an eye, in the early summer of 1990, the wealthy "old Goryeo" failed to restrain his subordinates and became the main target of the "strike hard" campaign. On the day of the arrest of "Lao Gaoli", it was supposed that Xiaoqiang drove "Lao Gaoli" to the investigation team. But "Old Gaoli" temporarily changed his mind and called Xiaoqiang to instruct: "You should go to the original payment for the goods." I asked 'Shandongzi' to take me to pick up the people from the investigation team and go to the Liangyou Hotel for dinner. If you get back the 13,000 yuan payment, you can go directly to our special private room in the hotel to find me. ”

Xiaoqiang didn't dare to slack off, drove a Lada car, and went to pick up the payment. After retrieving the payment, Xiaoqiang saw the "Mercedes-Benz 560" sedan of "Old Gaoli" from a distance, surrounded by three police cars in the middle. Around the police car, there were twenty or thirty armed policemen armed with guns and loaded ammunition. And "Shandong Zi" held his head and squatted dejectedly in the corner under the window. Several plainclothes policemen twisted the arms of "Old Goryeo" and stuffed him into a police car. Xiaoqiang was suddenly stunned, he was sweating profusely, he had no strength at all, and he collapsed in the car all of a sudden. It wasn't until the police car blew its siren and left that Xiaoqiang woke up. He wiped the cold sweat on his face, and thought to himself: "Look at this posture, the fourth master has been arrested, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out." He is the closest person around the fourth master, and he has no good fruit to eat. It's still Ma Yoer's scratching the bar! ”

Xiaoqiang felt like the sky was falling, and he was at a loss. It seems that although the world is big, there is no place for itself, where can you run to avoid the limelight? The port is designated and cannot stay! When he drove the "Lada" car onto National Highway 102 in a daze, it was already dark. Suddenly, a figure appeared in the light and stopped the car with both hands raised. Xiaoqiang was startled and hurriedly braked. When he saw clearly that it was a man in peasant attire who had stopped the car, he let out a sigh and rolled the glass off the window.

The person who stopped the car was a farmer in his twenties, who came to the window of the car and said to Xiaoqiang again and again: "Big brother, save my daughter-in-law......"

Xiao Qiang, who was anxious to flee for his life, was full of anger, he wanted to scold the young farmer, but after he saw the sweaty head and the honest face looked painful, he couldn't help but soften, and reluctantly suppressed the fire and asked, "Your daughter-in-law?" What's wrong? ”

"Oh maa...... What is my daughter-in-law, isn't it to feed the children, but my daughter-in-law is bleeding profusely, and the second brother Qi drove the carriage to the Second Hospital of the Medical University for rescue, but ...... But when I saw my daughter-in-law, I was out of breath. Big brother is good, help! "The young farmer was a little clumsy and clumsy, and he was about to cry as he spoke.

"The police have just arrested the fourth master, maybe they are arresting themselves all over the street. Didn't I go to the Second Hospital of the Medical University before I sent myself to the police? Xiao Qiang glanced at the young farmer and hesitated.

"Big brother, save my daughter-in-law! Your great kindness ......," begged the young peasant again.

"Alas...... should be caught by the police, even if you don't send this mountain cannon to the second hospital of the Medical University, you can't run away. If you shouldn't be caught, even if you go to the gate of the city bureau for three or five laps, it's fine. Hey...... Take a gamble! The fourth master often said, 'Saving a life is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter'. Thinking of this, Xiaoqiang said to the young farmer: "What are you still doing? Get in the car! ”

"Thank you, big brother!" The young farmer was overjoyed, and he and Second Brother Qi carried his daughter-in-law to the car. Xiao stressed the front of the car and drove towards the Second Hospital of the Medical University at a gallop.

When he came to the zero kilometer, Xiaoqiang was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, only to see that the heavily armed armed police had blocked the intersection of National Road 102 as if they were facing a great enemy. At this time, I'm afraid that even a fly can't fly out of the port. Fortunately, the armed police only inspected the vehicles leaving the city one by one, and waved their hands to let all vehicles entering the city. Xiaoqiang secretly called "luck", silently recited "Amitabha", fortunately good people have good rewards, and sent the young peasant couple to the second hospital of the Medical University.

Xiaoqiang made another fatal mistake, if he escaped at this time, hiding in a corner of the port, he might be able to escape the pursuit of the police. However, Xiao Qiang saw that the young farmer named Wang Jincai was struggling to get out of the "Lada" car with a pregnant woman in his arms, and he came up with enthusiasm, so he did not hesitate at all, did not think too much, and carried the dying pregnant woman into the emergency room with Wang Jincai. The medical skills of the Second Hospital of the Medical University are indeed extraordinary, and it is also considered that Wang Jincai's daughter-in-law has a big life, and more importantly, the rescue is timely, so that Wang Jincai's daughter-in-law can come back to life, and the mother and son are safe, and they have picked up two lives.

At that time, the vigilance of the revolutionary masses was very high. Xiaoqiang never dreamed that as soon as he entered the gate of the Second Hospital of the Medical University, he was noticed by the security officials of the Second Hospital of the Medical University. Bao Gan repeatedly checked the "Wanted Warrant" and confirmed that the person who was carrying a big bag of "great unity" and running around sweating profusely to register and pay the hospital deposit was the wanted fugitive Zhao Xiaoqiang.

The simple Wang Jincai did not forget that he had escaped from the port, and was arrested for sending his daughter-in-law to the Second Hospital of the Medical University for rescue, and was sentenced to a suspended death sentence. Wang Jincai named his son Wang Nianqiang, drove the carriage, and dragged his daughter-in-law and son to the prison to visit Xiaoqiang, who had a leg broken by the criminal police for resisting arrest, burst into tears and insisted on letting his son recognize Xiaoqiang as his godfather.

Later, I heard from Grandma Wang, who was next door to Xiaoqiang, that Xiaoqiang was originally sentenced to death and immediately executed. However, Wang Jincai led a group of seven aunts and eight aunts to the court, knelt in front of the gate, crying and howling and begging for mercy from the "Lord Qingtian". If the president of the court does not receive him, he will not get up! After learning of the inside story, the investigation team was deeply moved, believing that Zhao Xiaoqiang's plot of helping others reflected the kindness of Zhao Xiaoqiang's heart, and that a commutation of his sentence could be considered. Therefore, the investigation team recommended that the court change the sentence to a "suspended death".

It wasn't until more than ten years later that Zhan Zhizhan returned to work in the port, and when he saw "Curly Hair", when he talked about Xiaoqiang when he was drunk, "Curly Hair" was still full of praise, saying that Xiaoqiang had the chivalrous courage of the ancients. In addition to his experience, Zhan Zhizhan also secretly thought: "As a fugitive, Xiaoqiang, who is as vast as a fish that has slipped through the net, and who is as panicked as a lost dog, resolutely chooses to return to the port where Zhang Wang has been waiting in order to save people, I believe that the hero written by Uncle Jin Yong Jin and the 'Northern Hero' Ouyang Chun written by Mr. Shi Yukun will also have the same choice." But can you do it yourself? This and bribery and discipline to take the 'ghost hand' Lan Daoyan out for a meal, those are two different things. As for those dignitaries who talk about doctrine on stage and have business in their stomachs, the probability of being able to do this is too small. Just like in Uncle Jin Yong's "Smiling Proud Jianghu", the Sun and Moon Divine Sect is called the 'Demon Sect', and its followers are denounced as 'Charm and Spirit' by decent sects such as Shaolin, Wudang and Wuyue Sword Sect. In fact, there are many wicked people among the decent. For example, people like Yue Buqun and Zuo Lengchan specialize in despicable and shameless deeds, and their behavior is far more hateful than that of the Demon Sect disciples. In this world, it is difficult to distinguish between good and evil, good and evil, all in one thought. Just like Xiang Wentian and Qu Yang in the Demon Sect, they are all bright and upright heroes. So, although Xiaoqiang has done evil things, he ignores the danger at the critical moment, and the good is small but commendable! ”

The so-called "good and small" does not lie in the vigorous great merits and great good deeds. For example, building temples, paving roads and bridges are all the talents of wealthy people. And the good deeds of ordinary people have the beauty of "virtue and benevolence". Because there is no difference in all good intentions, the difference is in the knowledge of goodness. It is true that the rich do great deeds, and the poor do small deeds is also a great virtue. All goodness, all virtue, and all knowledge are all used for "small". Like a towering tree, it must be manifested by the luxuriance of branches and leaves, and it must be used by the "dense" and "tiny" that is not transparent to light. The virtue of the big tree is the convenience of shade with people.

Another aspect of "don't take kindness for granted" lies in the difficulty of doing good. If it is not difficult to do it, why do we often "think that it is small and do nothing"? It is not "good and small", there are only two kinds: one is disdainful of doing good. The second disdain is to do small good. All of them are unclear, fundamentally unclear.

Of course, that's all for later. Zhan Zhizhan and Xiaoqiang, Xiaofei, and Yin Rongrong drank up a bottle of "Xishui Daqu", and Xiaofei and Yin Rongrong were already Xia Fei's cheeks and pretty faces. Xiaofei is quite reserved, but Yin Rongrong looks extremely ugly, and has already eaten all the crabs in the bowl. After Yin Rongrong finished nibbling on a crab, a pair of charming eyes shimmered, and she was still staring at the other crab in the pot.

"Oops, wow! Yin Rongrong: I haven't eaten crabs in my life! Zhan Zhizhan felt funny, picked up the crab in the pot and put it in Yin Rongrong's bowl, and said with a smile: "As the saying goes, 'Men love to eat shrimp, women love to eat crabs'." Eat! Eat! ”

"Oh mama! Uncle Eighth has no cure for me! Yin Rongrong was overjoyed, broke off a crab leg, and couldn't wait to open her mouth to bite.

Zhan Zhizhan's hometown is rich in "Laizhou Crab", one of the "Seven Famous Crabs", also known as "Three-wart Barracuda Crab". The egg masses of female crabs, the fat paste of male crabs, and the snow-white and pink meat in the chela are delicious and delicious, and they are really rare and delicious.

Eating crabs, as a kind of leisure and cultural enjoyment, began in the Wei and Jin dynasties. People take eating crabs, drinking, appreciating chrysanthemums, and writing poems as romantic events in the golden autumn. Mr. Cao Xueqin's masterpiece "Dream of Red Mansions" has an interesting and lively scene of "Crab Banquet". While eating crabs, everyone gave chrysanthemum poems and satirical crab songs, each showing a talented algae.

Chinese eating crabs is very particular, although there is no need to use "eight pieces of crab" like the ancients, but the steps of eating crabs should still be followed, to taste carefully. Eating like Yin Rongrong is not only wasteful, but also tantamount to ruining the "crab culture".
