Siheyuan: All the birds want to die, I enjoy happiness

"Thank you, big brother." Zhu Weiguo quickly got up from the ground and ran out, fearing that he would be beaten again if he ran too slowly. The second brother and the people next to him looked at each other and nodded. Look, after we beat him up, he still has to thank us!

Su Xingchen finally understood. The person who sold him the wild ginseng was caught for not paying for it. Doesn't that mean he was being watched? Su Xingchen shuddered at the thought. If others knew that he was carrying so much money, he would be robbed, right?

In fact, these are all small things to him. What he fears is being followed by others. If he comes to Pigeon City and exposes his identity, it will be more trouble than gain. It seems that Pigeon City is not as safe as he thought. If possible, he should not come to this place as much as possible. Well, Su Xingchen saw that it was getting late and prepared to leave Pigeon City and go home to sleep.

As Su Xingchen walked to the entrance, he heard a whistle and a crowd of people ran out. Before Su Xingchen could react, he was knocked off balance and heard someone next to him shout, "The plainclothes officers are here, run!"

Sure enough, when Su Xingchen turned around, he saw a group of people holding flashlights and catching people. Many people didn't even care about the things they were selling and started running away. If they were caught, they would have to spend the New Year in prison.

Su Xingchen then remembered that he had to run when the whistle sounded. Thinking of this, he did not hesitate, wrapped the scarf on his face tightly and ran outside. Not long after running, he saw a person lying on the ground looking for something. Su Xingchen did not care and continued to run forward. Suddenly, he realized that the back figure just now seemed to be the third uncle!

Su Xingchen thought of this and quickly turned around to take a look. It was indeed Yan Bugui! He quickly ran over and said, "Hey, what are you doing here?" Su Xingchen did not lower his voice this time, mainly because he was afraid that Yan Bugui would not recognize him.

Yan Bugui thought the voice was very familiar to him. He looked up and found that the people were surrounding him tightly. Su Xingchen then realized that Yan Bugui's glasses had fallen off.

"Who are you? I lost my glasses, I have to find them first." Yan Bugui was like a blind man without his glasses, he lay on the ground and felt around. Glasses are not cheap these days, he has a family to support, what will he do if he loses them?

Seeing that the person chasing them was almost there, Su Xingchen hurriedly helped the third uncle find his glasses. "It's me, the one next door to you. Hey, here. Let's go quickly. If we don't leave now, we'll be caught." Su Xingchen immediately found the glasses that had fallen next to him, but the legs of the glasses seemed to be broken.

Yan Bugui took the glasses handed over by Su Xingchen and said, "Hey, what should I do if my eyes are broken?"

"Come on, old man, just run away with me. Broken glasses are easy to fix, but if you get caught, your family will have trouble getting food." Su Xingchen said quickly when he saw Yan Bugui, who looked like he was in agony. Anyway, if he wanted to run, the people behind him would definitely not be able to catch up with him, but he couldn't guarantee that for Yan Bugui.

"Hey, let's go." Yan Bugui already knew that Su Xingchen was next to him, so he didn't hesitate and quickly followed Su Xingchen to run forward.

The two did not dare to go back to the courtyard directly. After all, if the people behind them followed them back to the courtyard, they would still be in trouble. The two walked around outside for several times to make sure that no one was following them before walking back to the courtyard.

"Hey, Chenzi, what are you doing today?" Yan Bugui asked with a sigh.

"I couldn't sleep today because I had never been to Pigeon City. Who knew that I would run into someone who came to arrest people when I went there for the first time. By the way, Uncle San, where are you going today? What's wrong with your glasses?" Su Xingchen said as he untied his scarf.

Yan Bugui shook his head and said, "Oh, don't mention it. Today, the school distributed five kilograms of Daoxiangcun snack tickets as New Year's Day benefits. You know my family's situation. Snacks can't be eaten as meals. I was thinking of going to the Pigeon Market to exchange some money for the New Year and buy some things to improve my meals."

"I was afraid that someone would come to arrest me today, so I sold my things early and left. But I heard a whistle just as I walked out. I don't know which blind person knocked me down. Now that my glasses are broken, what should I do? A pair of glasses costs twenty or thirty yuan, and that's one month's salary... It's gone!" Yan Bugui said, holding the broken glasses in his hand.

Su Xingchen shook his head helplessly. He knew that Third Uncle had a hard time, but he couldn't empathize with him. How much could these five pounds of snacks sell for? It would be better to give them to his children to satisfy their cravings. He often saw Yan Jiedi staring at other children eating. Your Third Uncle really has a hard time. Could it be that he can't even afford the money for these snacks?

It's impossible. To put it bluntly, it's just stinginess. Although it's their own choice to live stingily, it's just asking for trouble. Su Xingchen knows that many elderly people in the future are reluctant to throw away leftovers, and spend thousands of dollars in the hospital because of stomach upset; they are reluctant to take a taxi or a plane, and take the bus and are late; they are not feeling well, but are reluctant to go to the hospital for treatment, and the result is getting worse. This is too much. In order to be greedy for a little bit of cheapness, they don't make any money, but lose a lot.

Isn't Yan Bugui such a person? Su Xingchen didn't know what to say. This was someone else's choice and he couldn't interfere.

"Uncle, if you ask me, you might as well leave these five kilograms of snacks for your children. Your children will remember your kindness, and your glasses will not be damaged." Su Xingchen shook his head and said.

Yan Bugui was immediately displeased when he heard Su Xingchen say this. How could a child like you understand the pressure we adults are under? "Hey, you are not the head of the family, you don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are, and you are talking lightly. Come on, come on, I won't talk to you anymore."

"By the way, I remember this door was locked by your third aunt when I left. How did you get out?" Yan Bugui suddenly thought of something and asked Su Xingchen.

"It's a secret, Third Uncle, don't ask me. If it's your turn, you should go back and figure out what to do with your glasses." Su Xingchen would not tell him that he climbed over the wall. If the people in the compound knew about it, it would be bad if something happened in the compound. How did that saying go? I have never hesitated to assume the worst of the Chinese. That's right. Usually, the compound is peaceful. If they knew what you are capable of, it would be a disaster.

Just like He Yuzhu taught Banggeng how to pick locks, so that if anyone in the backyard loses something, they would suspect it was them.
