Chapter 369 Poverty

Alix couldn't help but smile coquettishly when she saw that Zhang Cheng was teasing them like this, and then said in a low voice, "You're so bad, but it's good."

Zhang Cheng laughed, clapped his hands and said to Alex, "Okay, let's not talk so much, tell me where your home is, and I will take you back, so that you won't run into bad guys again on your walk, That’s really hard to say.”

When Alix heard what Zhang Cheng said, she couldn't help being afraid of what happened just now. She shrank her neck and looked around vigilantly, and found that there was no other stranger besides Zhang Cheng. Slightly relieved.But even if no one was wandering on the road, she dared not say that letting her go by herself would not bother Zhang Cheng any more.She bowed her head and said, "Thank you very much, come with me."

The two of them walked down the street one after the other, exchanging pleasantries from time to time, which was quite a good feeling.

After walking for about half an hour, Zhang Cheng and Zhang Cheng arrived at Alix's house. This journey is really not ordinary.

Zhang Cheng stretched his aching leg and asked, "Why do you have to walk such a long way, why don't you take a taxi?"

Alix felt tense for no reason when she heard Zhang Cheng's question, then she lowered her head and said, "It's too expensive to take a taxi. Walking saves money."

Zhang Cheng was taken aback for a moment, realizing that he had hit the most inferior side of Alex's heart, he touched his nose, and didn't know what to say, the two stood in place for a while, then Zhang Cheng said, "Let's go." , we’re all home, don’t stand around outside the door.”

Alix bowed her head and hummed, then led Zhang Cheng to make a few small turns, and finally returned to her home.

Seeing Alix's home, Zhang Cheng was slightly surprised. He never thought that such a home existed in the city. Maybe this is the so-called Cheng Zhong Village!He sighed slightly again, feeling slight regret and regret for Alix's fate.

What appeared in front of Zhang Cheng was a house with a particularly serious mix-and-match phenomenon. The lower part of the house was okay, with a wall made of broken bricks. Occasionally, a few good bricks were embedded in it, which seemed a bit different.The entire wall is not painted, but it has a different flavor. It seems that because of the lack of bricks, there are several thick and short wooden pillars on the brick wall. Some waste paper boxes are blocked, and around the pillar walls, they are wrapped with several layers of plastic film. It seems that they are afraid of raining in rainy days. The owner of this house is quite careful!Further up is the roof. The owner of the roof spent a lot of money and covered it with a big iron sheet. It looks pretty good.

Seeing Zhang Cheng staring at the door of her house for a long time but not going in, Alix felt a little sad. She also felt that her house was so dilapidated. If she entered, she might have to endure the tattered furniture in the house. It would be better not to enter.

Alix waited for a while unwillingly, and found that Zhang Cheng was still in place, and she couldn't do anything, so she could only say in a low voice, "Thank you Zhang Cheng, I'm home now, there will be no more danger, You go back and do your work first."

Zhang Cheng was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile, "Why, it's already at the door of the house, don't you want to invite me in?"

Alix was also taken aback for a moment, and then a happy smile appeared on her face, "Come on, come in, it's quite cold outside."

Only then did Zhang Cheng nod his head, and pushed open the door that was completely made of a wooden board and a handle. In fact, the door didn't need to be so sophisticated. After all, what was there to steal from her house?To use one of the lines in a funny sketch in the previous life, the thieves who went to her house couldn't help but shed tears, and they would give them two bags of rice or something during the holidays.

As soon as Zhang Cheng entered the door, bursts of sadness flowed from his heart. This is a room that integrates bedroom, kitchen, living room, and dining room. There are no partitions in the whole room. If there is a partition, it may be There is a curtain hanging on the roof, maybe this is someone who pulls it down when sleeping, and then let the girl have an independent space.

After Zhang Cheng entered, there were still two people in the room, an old man who had passed middle age, and a woman who looked very old. The middle-aged man was lying on the bed, and he didn't respond when Zhang Cheng and his daughter came back. And the woman was lowering her head and fiddling with a towel in her hand. Her gray hair was full of vicissitudes. When she saw her daughter coming back, the woman jumped up and hugged Alex fiercely. Her haggard eyes Once again, tears of family affection flowed down the dry tear line.

And Alix also hugged her mother and cried, and the two hugged each other and cried, not paying any attention to Zhang Cheng, an outsider.

About a minute later, the middle-aged woman slowly opened her closed eyes, and then she suddenly realized that her daughter had brought back someone else. She wiped her tears, pulled her daughter aside, and asked who this man was ?Why did you come back so late today?
When Alix was asked by the middle-aged woman, the tears she had just stopped shed again, and they became more and more fierce. When she cried and told how the gangsters she met on the road and how Zhang Cheng saved her, the middle-aged woman finally Let go of Zhang Cheng's guard.Instead, there was gratitude from the eyes, and even the look in his eyes changed from suspicion to excitement.

After Alix finished talking about this dangerous but nonexistent scene, the middle-aged woman asked immediately, "What happened later? Maybe you encountered more than this incident, did you go to find other people?" work? Mom told you that I can share some of it for you, so you don’t have to work so hard yourself. Besides, look at how skinny you are, and you’re almost getting married, so you can’t do this anymore. "

"But Dad hasn't woken up yet, I can't stop seeing Dad because of my beauty!" Alix said.

The middle-aged woman smiled gratifiedly when she heard what Alix said, "With a daughter like you, I will have no regrets in this life."

Alex took her mother's hand and said again, "Mom, actually, I was fired by my boss today, and I'm going to look for a job again tomorrow."

Alix lowered her head, afraid to see her mother's sad look.Then she will be sad too.

Sure enough, when the middle-aged woman heard that Alex had lost her job, she trembled slightly, and then she was relieved. She sighed and said comfortingly, "It's okay, just lose it if you lose it. There are so many jobs in the world. Isn't it easy to find a job?"

Alix still buried her head in her mother's arms, and then gave a soft hum to show her approval for her mother.

After the two of them told each other what was in their hearts, they realized that Zhang Cheng hadn't been received yet. Alix hurriedly took out a small low bench from the corner, and her mother really quickly gave it to him. Poured a glass of boiled water. Due to economic constraints, their family could no longer afford to buy pastries or even some cheap tea.

In fact, there is no need to buy these things for entertaining guests, because there has been no one in their home for a long time. I remember that the last time I visited her home was a poor neighbor who was similar to theirs and borrowed scissors.

In the conversation between Zhang Cheng and Alix, Zhang Cheng learned that although his family was very poor five years ago, he lived a warm life with the help of the man lying motionless on the bed. After he was hit by a car while crossing the road, the family changed. The man had turned into a vegetative state because of the hit, which dragged down their family. She can't go away by her father's side. The family's source of income is only relying on Alix's meager income, but this income is not only for her father's medicine, but the rest of the money has become a bit difficult to eat. Alix Unemployment once means that the family will go through a crisis that may last for a long time without eating. At this time, Alix is ​​already unemployed, which may mean that the family will have a long time to live. There will be no time to have a full meal.

Hearing what Alix said, Zhang Cheng probably knew the living conditions of Lao and her family. He never imagined that there are such poor people living in a humble way in country M where every inch of land is expensive. In fact, there are such people everywhere. It's just that we didn't care about it. To put it bluntly, many people believe in the principle that nothing matters to them, so who cares about your life and death?
But Zhang Cheng is really different. He has also experienced the days of poverty, and he has also experienced the days of wealth. Poverty made it difficult for him to move forward, but wealth made him do whatever he wanted. Well, this word is a bit derogatory, but the fact is this thing.Zhang Cheng, who has experienced poverty and wealth, can better understand the gap between the rich and the poor. Just like the popular saying at the moment, poverty limits your imagination. Yes, the poor can never imagine the life of the rich. It is also difficult for the rich to appreciate the plight of the poor.

After hearing the girl's story, Zhang Cheng felt a little compassion for her. He said, "Eat the noodles first, it will be cold after a while, and it will not taste good when it is cold. After eating, Eric Si, I want to tell you something." Zhang Cheng found a chair and said.

Alix was very puzzled by Zhang Cheng's words, but she didn't want to ask too much. She brought her mother the bowl of fragrant noodles in the incubator. For people who have been hungry for a long time, something to eat is not bad. , still care about those non-existent etiquette?

And Zhang Cheng was thinking about some things he would do when he became a famous chef while Alix was having dinner with her mother, maybe he already had some clues.

Zhang Cheng smiled slightly. If this is really done, then he will not be far from a superstar.
