"Thank you, Uncle Xiao Zeng, thank you... Handsome Uncle." Tiantian said coyly in Ou Jiyu's arms, and secretly looked at Yuan Yu with her big eyes shining.

"Look at my girl, and I know that Uncle Yuan Yu is handsome!"

Ou Jiyu said with a smile, and heard Mrs. Ou calling him in the kitchen to help.He quickly took the opportunity to go out with Tiantian in his arms, gave Yuan Yu a meaningful look, and left space for the two of them.

Zeng Ruchu followed behind Ou Jiyu and wanted to help in the kitchen, but was grabbed by the arm by Yuan Yu who was standing at the door.

"Come, come!" Ou Jiyu's voice echoed in the living room.Zeng Ruchu raised his head and looked at Yuan Yu puzzled.

"What's the matter?" Zeng Ruchu couldn't help asking when he saw that he was staring at him with a strange expression, but still didn't say anything.

Yuan Yu had too many words in his mind, wanted to ask him, wanted to get a clear answer, but when he got to his mouth, what he said was: "...does it still hurt?"

"What?" Zeng Ruchu frowned, feeling that Yuan Yu was so strange, his expression was strange, and his words were also strange.He is not usually like this.

"Your hand...fingers." Yuan Yu held his breath, and looked at him so seriously, as if this question was so important to him.

Zeng Ruchu was stunned for a moment before realizing that he was talking about his severed finger.

"How is it possible?" Zeng Ruchu lowered his head and took off the fake fingertips, the complexities that flashed in his eyes were gone when he raised his head again, replaced by a heartless smile, he bit it crisply He took a bite of the apple in his hand and said, "I haven't felt it for a long time."

Yuan Yu took his hand and touched it lightly where his severed finger was, as carefully as if it could hurt him.

Seeing Yuan Yu lower his head and kiss his ugly severed finger deeply, Zeng Ruchu's heart shrank suddenly.It seemed that an electric current was transmitted from the end of Yuan Yu's kissed finger to his heart.

"I..." Yuan Yu looked at Zeng Ruchu, and there seemed to be a thousand words in his eyes.

"..."

"Cough...cough!"

The strange and silent atmosphere between the two was interrupted by Ou Jiyu's cough.I saw Ou Jiyu coming out of the kitchen with a plate, followed by Mrs. Ou and the little chubby girl rushing towards Zeng Ruchu.

"It's time to eat. Ruchu, please set the table for me." Ou Jiyu didn't seem to see anything, and ordered Zeng Ruchu with his usual blunt expression.

Zeng Ruchu had already pulled his hand out of Yuan Yu's hand when he heard the voice. At this moment, his cheeks were a little red, and he agreed in a low voice, and walked towards the folding wooden table standing in the corner.

Before Zeng Ruchu touched the corner of the table, Yuan Yu moved the table from behind. He took a deep look at Zeng Ruchu and said, "I'll come." He lifted the table with one hand and placed it on Ou Jiyu's table. The said place unfolds.

Mrs. Ou cooked eight dishes, three meat and three vegetarian dishes, and two ready-made appetizers.The Ou family's small table for eating on weekdays was forcibly put down, and there was not even a place to put the bowls.

"You guys eat, Tiantian and I will eat in the kitchen." After Mrs. Ou prepared all the meals, she would lead Tiantian to the kitchen to eat.

"No, let's eat together." Zeng Ruchu said with a frown.

"No, no, I left the food in the kitchen, you can drink yours..." Mrs. Ou declined.

"No outsiders, sister-in-law, we absolutely can't let you and Tiantian go to the kitchen to eat, or we won't eat." Zeng Ruchu stood up, and Yuan Yu also stood up and echoed: "Let's eat together, sister-in-law If so, I will be embarrassed to come next time."

In the end, it was Lao Ou who spoke, and Mrs. Ou sat aside with Tiantian in her arms under the persuasion of everyone.

"I am such a small place. I never thought that one day I could invite a big man like Yuan Yu to dinner. It is so radiant. I will go to the construction site and tell the workers tomorrow. They will not believe it. They must say I'm bragging! Hahaha." Lao Ou put down his glass and said with a laugh, everyone could see that he was really happy today.

The three of them took a sip from their wine glasses, then put down the glasses and ate something to fill their stomachs.

"What kind of person am I? Old Ou, stop joking." Yuan Yu said with a modest smile, the soft lines on Jun's face could be called amiable.

"You're not joking!" Old Ou turned his head to Mrs. Ou and said, "You are popular all over the country, even my daughter-in-law knows you when she doesn't watch TV often. Isn't it, Yingzi?"

Mrs. Ou nodded repeatedly, looking at Yuan Yu with admiration and awe.

"When did you go to the construction site?" Zeng Ruchu interjected, frowning.

"I've been there for half a month." Lao Ou ordered a chopstick dish for them one by one, and said, "Isn't this a friend from my hometown who is a contractor? He asked me to help find some workers. I thought about it. Now that Malatang is not easy to do, and the house will expire next month, I will go too. It is [-] a day, and the wages of that day will be paid on the same day."

Zeng Ruchu frowned even tighter, and he also understood Lao Ou's situation.Old Ou is not like his lonely family. He has enough to eat and the whole family is not hungry. Mrs. Ou raised Tiantian by herself in the early years. When she was working outside, she was hit by a stone in the waist and always hurt.There is also a tuition fee for Tiantian to go to school.He raised a large family by himself, even if he didn't say anything, Zeng Ruchu knew how difficult it was for him.There are not many times when he can help Ou Jiyu, but if he can help, he will definitely help.

Hearing that he was working on the construction site, Zeng Ru should not have wiped his mouth, but he couldn't hold back when he saw that Old Ou's back was slightly twisted, and asked worriedly: "What are you doing there? Is there any danger? ?”

"It's not dangerous, it's not dangerous! The contractor there is my former younger brother, who still takes good care of me. Otherwise, I don't have any skills. Can he give me 200 yuan a day? I just have some work to do, laying a floor There is no danger at all, such as bricks, ground heat or something." Lao Ou said with a smile, and then deliberately changed the topic and said: "For dinner, the braised pork made by my Yingzi is a must, Yuan Yu, you should try it too."

Everyone continued to eat and drink, and did not mention the topic just now, but Zeng Ruchu and Mrs. Ou's faces were obviously not as brisk as before.Yuan Yu walked around the small and dilapidated living room of Ou Jiyu's house calmly. There were not many pieces of simple and old furniture, let alone decent ones. The only 23-inch color TV was in Zeng Ruchu's home. They gave it when they moved in.

Yuan Yu took a sip of his wine and called out slowly: "Old Ou."

"What's wrong?" Lao Ou asked while chewing the meat in his mouth.

"The work on the construction site is not safe and unstable anyway." Yuan Yu put down his chopsticks, looked at him and said, "If you don't mind, I will also introduce you to a monthly salary of not less than 6000 yuan. There are five social insurances and one housing fund during holidays." , may not be idle, but at least it is safe and secure."

Yuan Yu's words silenced the table for two seconds.Mrs. Ou was the first to react, she looked at Yuan Yu very excitedly and said, "Mr. Yuan, is what you said true? If you really, really find such a good job for Lao Ou, you will belong to our family." Great benefactor, we don't know how to thank you..."

"What nonsense!" Lao Ou interrupted her, looked at Yuan Yu and Zeng Ruchu with a bit of embarrassment, and said: "No need, I'm doing pretty well now. Yuan Yu, you don't have to bother to help me... "

"Is the salary unsatisfactory? Or do you have other concerns?" Yuan Yu was very straightforward.

"Of course not the salary..." Lao Ou waved his hands quickly, the alcohol in his stomach had already started to react, and his face was flushed.Mrs. Ou was lightly reprimanded by him and didn't speak any more, but anxiously tugged at the hem of his clothes quietly underneath.

"I really...how should I put it!" Lao Ou stretched out his hand and wiped his face. Although he felt that the opportunity was rare, if Yuan Yu walked out of his house today, he would never be able to find a good job that Yuan Yu introduced to him in his life. .But although his old Ou likes good cars and money, he also wants to live a good life for his wife and children.However, he is definitely not a person who takes advantage of his friends. He is so snobbish that he will jump on anyone who is rich.He didn't want Zeng Ruchu to misunderstand anything...

"I haven't even graduated from junior high school, I don't have any skills, and I have a criminal record. Even a company unit is unwilling to use me like this. You have to get me in so that others can't do it. And I'm working really well now, and I don't have enough time. Freedom, I... I'm used to being idle, and I don't feel uncomfortable even going to a big company!" Ou Jiyu smiled embarrassedly, and kept declining, "Come on, let's do it!"

Hearing what he said, Yuan Yu really couldn't force it.Mrs. Ou sat on the side and anxiously winked at Zeng Ruchu.

Zeng Ruchu has not spoken all the time, and he also knows that as long as he does not speak, Lao Ou's character will never accept it, even if Yuan Yu offers him the best conditions.

Zeng Ruchu couldn't bear to be watched by Mrs. Ou, and finally said: "I didn't say what to do, how do you know it's uncomfortable! Why don't you try it, let's talk if it doesn't work."

"Yes." Yuan Yu spoke, his deep and steady voice was really convincing: "Go and try it first, I will call my assistant later and ask him to arrange it, Yuan's is also fine, and so is my company If you are not happy with this, you can change it to something else. Everything depends on your will.”

Yuan Yu has already talked about this point, of course Ou Jiyu can't take Joe anymore.He really needs a stable job.

Mrs. Ou ate for a while, then took Tiantian back to the house to do her homework and go to bed.Three big men sat around the table drinking wine, most of the time it was Lao Ou who was talking, Yuan Yu and Zeng Ruchu were listening.

It may be that he really appreciates Yuan Yu, it may be that he has settled the work that has troubled him for so long tonight, or it may be that he thinks that Zeng Ruchu can have someone to accompany and love...Old Ou has always been in high spirits As he said that, he saw the bottom of the Siping and half a catty bottle of local liquor. He learned from the workers on the construction site that he had convicted the boss for being the head of the hall... As he was talking, Lao Ou suddenly fell on the table and burst into tears...

"Yuan Yu, Yuan Yu, you don't know how much he has suffered in the past!" Ou Jiyu raised his head from the table, looked at Yuan Yu with red eyes, and cried in his hoarse voice: "Those inside are not human. , They are beasts! When they see good-looking people, they spoil them. Ru Chuu was forced by them not to have a good night's sleep or a day of peace of mind in ten years. In order to avoid those beasts, he asked me to help him. Raw meat, vomiting and diarrhea, so thin that you look like a living person? Just to hide in the hospital..."

"Stop talking, old Ou!" Zeng Ruchu interrupted him, staring at Ou Jiyu with dark eyes and saying: "You drink too much."

"Let him talk." Yuan Yu pressed Zeng Ruchu who was about to stand up, his eyes were dark and dark, and he held Zeng Ruchu's hand with great strength.

"Yes, let me talk. You can't stop me from talking..." Ou Jiyu had indeed drunk too much, crying with snot and tears, only knowing that he was holding Yuan Yu's arm through the dishes on the table, Tapping his tongue: "My brother has to tell Yuan Yu, how have you been in the past ten years? You have been admitted to the hospital no less than a hundred times, and how many times have you committed suicide? Just by cutting your wrists, I remember that you still have blood on your hands." There are three scars, you even chopped off your own fingers... woo woo woo..."

When Ou Jiyu said this, his face was covered with tears, he couldn't restrain himself from sobbing, only a trace of rationality made him put his fist into his mouth, bit it hard, crying like a helpless child...

Yuan Yu closed his eyes hard, blinked away the moisture in his eye sockets, pulled a bottle of white wine, bit the lid off with his teeth, and poured directly into his stomach by facing the mouth of the bottle.The pungent feeling like a knife cut his throat, intestines, and stomach, but his heart still hurt so much that he couldn't get drunk at all... How much he wanted to be like Ou Jiyu, lying on the table and crying bitterly...

Cry out all the grievances of these years, cry out all his love for Zeng Ruchu...
