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

"What do you think, kid? Just tell me whether this meal from Donglaishun is worth it or not?" Xu Tian said pretentiously, leaning back in his chair.

"Brother Tian, ​​this is awesome, where did you get this?" Su Xingchen said as he played with it in his hand. The Naa.22 that he signed for was too small, and it was good for self-defense, but it really looked like a toy in his hand.

"Don't worry about it. This is a gun license. Of course, you can only use it during this period of time. I will take it back after the period is over. You have to know that normally you are not eligible to get this gun license. By the way, you said at that time that if I got you a gun, you would help me guard against the thief on the bus. You wouldn't refuse, would you?" Xu Tian said. He was really afraid that Su Xingchen would not want the gun anymore and say that he didn't say that. If that happened, he would lose both the wife and the army.

"Yes, I did. I just said it casually, but I didn't expect you to really bring it to me. Of course, I'm not the kind of person who talks nonsense. Then I'll go, but of course it's only for this period of time, because I have to go to school when I come back." Su Xingchen said as he put Browning on the table.

"Don't worry. By the end of New Year's Day, let's go and take you to the shooting range to try out the gun. If you really encounter a situation and you really can't shoot, that would be bad. But I think the possibility of such a situation is almost zero. But I'll let you satisfy your urge to shoot a gun." As he said that, Xu Tian picked up the hat on the table and walked out the door.

Su Xingchen threw the gun and the gun license into the space. Anyway, no one could see him taking things out of his arms, so it was not too safe.

Su Xingchen got on Xu Tian's bicycle, and Xu Tian rushed to the shooting range on the outskirts of Sijiu City.

After arriving at the shooting range and checking their IDs, the two entered the range. Xu Tian gave Su Xingchen 100 rounds of bullets for him to practice with.

"Watch carefully. I'll teach you first, and then you can try it later. The so-called three points and one line are the target object, such as the target now, and the crosshairs and the scale notch. Aim, keep your hand steady, and then shoot." After saying that, Xu Tian fired the gun.

There was a burst of continuous gunfire, and the person looking at the target paper in the distance waved his flag and said 98 rings. It seemed that Xu Tian's shooting skills were also quite accurate.

"Boy, how about it? My marksmanship is not just boasting. It's the result of my actual practice. You'll be lucky if half of your bullets can hit the target today. You can try it." As he said that, he pushed the bullet in front of Su Xingchen.

Su Xingchen pretended to take out a gun from his clothes, but he actually took the gun out of space. After removing the magazine, he found that he had not been given any bullets. Xu Tian seemed to understand what he was thinking and said, "You will only be given bullets when you are on a mission. This time I brought it without any. Hurry up and try."

After hearing this, Su Xingchen no longer hesitated. He loaded the bullets and aimed at the target. "Bang, bang, bang", the signal flag was waved again. 25 rings, five out of ten shots hit the target. Although the accuracy was not satisfactory, it was Su Xingchen's first time shooting after all.

"Wow, half of the bullets can still hit the target. I really didn't expect that. Is this really your first time shooting?" Xu Tian asked.

"How can I lie to you? Besides, if it's not the first time, your skills are really bad." Su Xingchen said as he reloaded the magazine and started a new round of shooting.

At this time, the hospital

"Huai Ru, where is my mother? Ask her to come to the hospital to pay the bills at noon." The medical expenses were originally enough for a week, but Jia Dongxu couldn't stand the pain and had to get a blocking injection. Not only that, he also asked the hospital to prescribe painkillers and drip saline to reduce the swelling. Jia Zhangshi didn't pay much money in the first place, so now she had no choice but to come to pay the bill.

"Dong... Dongxu... Mom can't come. She was arrested and sent to a labor camp." Qin Huairu held the stick and hesitated for a long time before she dared to speak.

"What? Qin Huairu, what happened to my mother? Why was she arrested?" Jia Dongxu quickly sat up and said.

When people in the ward heard that Jia Zhang was arrested, most of them felt that it was natural and not surprising. After all, a sarcastic person like Jia Zhang might offend anyone.

"Someone went to the Women's Federation to report that my mother beat me. The director of the Women's Federation came to our house to check the wounds on my body. My mother almost beat up the people from the Women's Federation, so she was arrested by the police and sentenced to three months..." Qin Huairu said with his head down. Jia Dongxu's temper was not very good, and he was afraid that he would be beaten again. At this time, he could only find a way to put the blame on Jia Zhang.

When Jia Dongxu heard this, although he felt resentful towards Qin Huairu, he couldn't help but feel overwhelmed when he thought about how his mother almost beat up the people from the Women's Federation. But he still complained to Qin Huairu: "Why don't you talk to the Women's Federation? What's your brain made of? You didn't know how to stop your mother from beating people? Otherwise, would your mother have gone to jail? Go to see your mother right away and ask her where the money is, and pay the medical expenses first."

Qin Huairu heaved a sigh of relief after hearing Jia Dongxu's words. After all, this was really too light compared to the beatings she had received before. So she said, "Okay, I'll go right away." So she took the stick and went home first. What did she go home for? Bring some food! If you don't treat this old woman Jia Zhang well, will she follow you?

When the people in the ward heard the reason why Jia Zhang was arrested, they couldn't help but discriminate against Jia Zhang even more. He beat his daughter-in-law and wanted to beat the comrades of the Women's Federation. What Jia Dongxu said made the people in the ward sympathize with Qin Huairu. Not only did she have a wicked mother-in-law, but her husband didn't help her. How could she have such a family? It was really pitiful.

Qin Huairu went home, boiled two eggs, packed a few steamed buns, and walked to the police station holding Banggeng.

local police station

"Comrade, I want to see my mother-in-law. Bring her some food." Qin Huairu came to the police station and said to the comrades at the police station.

"Who is your mother-in-law? What's her name?" asked the public security comrade.

How could Qin Huairu know Jia Zhang's name? Everyone called her Jia Zhang, "The one who was arrested yesterday for beating someone."

"Oh, you said you wanted to beat your daughter-in-law and the comrade from the Women's Federation? Come with me, or I'll send her to labor reform in the suburbs." The public security comrade took the key and led Qin Huairu into an empty room and asked her to wait.

After a while, he came in with Jia Zhang.

"Mom, I brought you some food." Qin Huairu said as she took out the food.

"Hmph, are you here to laugh at me after I was arrested? Let me tell you, Qin Huairu, you are a member of my Jia family, you can't run away. Wait until I get out." Jia Zhang spoke only when she saw the public security comrades standing at the door.

"Mom, how can you think like this? Dongxu asked me to come here. His medical expenses in the hospital are gone. If you don't take out the money, we will starve to death in the next three months." Qin Huairu said.

"What? Why do you have to pay again? Didn't you just pay the money?" Jia Zhang immediately became restless. Asking her for money was like asking for her life.

"The doctor said that my legs have been swollen for a long time, and he prescribed medicine. Didn't it heal me? Who knows what happened now?"

Hearing this, Jia Zhang didn't dare to say anything. This was her own fault, and she still had the meal ticket in her pocket, but she couldn't really let her son and grandson starve to death. She could only say, "Take the money in the box under my bed and pay Dongxu's tuition. I tell you, wait for me to come back in these three months. If I find that you took too much, I will smash your hand!"

"Zhang Xiaohua, come out. It's time to send you to a labor camp in the suburbs." The police officer walked in and said.

"Hey, here I come." Jia Zhang replied, quickly stuffed the food into her pocket and walked to the door. She was escorted by the police into a prison van and driven to the outskirts of the city.

Jia Zhang didn't know that her "good" life was about to begin.
