rebirth of evil

Jiang An drove Qian Wei and Mo Fan to an alley and parked the car. The three of them walked deep into the alley and saw an old sycamore tree not long after.Not far from the sycamore tree is an old old shop. It doesn't even have a signboard. There are only a few old wooden tables that have been wiped clean from the inside to the outside. There are no customers, and an old man can be seen in the innermost kitchen. Busy there.Smelling the smell of stewed meat, Mo Fan and Qian Weihe suddenly felt that their stomachs were starving.

Jiang An said hello to the old man: "Uncle Ma, boil a hoof for us. Someone is injured and needs to be mended. You can take some for the three of you."

Uncle Ma's eyes are not very good, and he had to squint to see people clearly. When he saw them, he was a little surprised: "Anzi? And Xiaohe? How did Xiaohe hurt your leg? Huh? Mo Fan is here too?"

Although specialty products are everywhere now, and famous food is everywhere, you still have to find authentic old flavors from old shops.These old and sophisticated crafts are a bit complicated to make, and the store will not be able to support it when it grows big. Uncle Ma also tried to pass on his ancestral stew technique to his son. Unfortunately, his son will know it, but he doesn’t have the patience to do it well. The Majia stew, which has been famous all over the world, has long lost that taste.

In the past, Jiang An often brought them to visit Uncle Ma's shop, and Mo Fan also learned a few tricks, but after all, this skill was passed down by Uncle Ma's ancestors, and Mo Fan only made it for his family to eat.Seeing that Uncle Ma still remembered himself, Mo Fan said, "Uncle Ma, I have missed your stewed beef these few years!"

Uncle Ma said: "You kid has been able to be a teacher for a long time, and you still say you miss it?"

Mo Fan said: "In the past few years, I haven't had the opportunity to cook well. It's rare that the next time I cook a big pot, I can't do it delicately. And I cook it myself. It's not as good as you, Uncle Ma. It's tasteless." You can’t learn to hold a spoon for decades.”

A few words of praise made Uncle Ma smile. He took out a plate full of rice, and the white, thin and shiny rice grains seemed to be more fragrant than other places. , the fragrant gravy immediately dripped into the rice, which made people move their index fingers.After bringing out the three servings of rice, Uncle Ma said, "Eat first, eat slowly, and I'll make soup for you."

Jiang An seemed to have forgotten to ask about Qian Wei and his leg injury, and started to eat by himself.

Qian Weihe felt restless.If Jiang An continued to put on an angry face, Qian Weihe might be able to fool a few words, but Jiang An just didn't ask or mention it, and ate and ate meat calmly.He cast a look of help to Mo Fan.

With the delicious food in hand, Mo Fan would not receive Qian Weihe's distress signal, so he devoted himself to finishing his lunch.The beef is crispy and the tendon is fragrant and tough. Mo Fan loves to eat it very much, and he will not be distracted.

Qian Weihe cursed secretly, "I'm not loyal", and also took the rice and put it into his mouth mouthful. The stewed meat that was their favorite in the dormitory before, tasted a bit unpleasant now.

Halfway through eating, Qian Weihe finally couldn't bear it anymore, and said directly: "I just hurt my muscles and bones during the game, and I can play well, so which one will not encounter accidents? Do you need to use cold war tactics against me?" ? Knowing that what I dislike the most is this kind of atmosphere..."

Jiang An glanced at him.

The momentum that Qian Weihe had accumulated with great difficulty suddenly weakened.He honestly confessed what happened to him. In fact, it was nothing. He was injured while playing football, but his luck was bad, and he encountered a car accident on the way to the hospital.This is still his fate. Only he and the driver are still alive in the car. If his luck is worse, he may lose his life there.It's just that although he can still walk with this foot, he will no longer be able to play football in the future.

Seeing that the expressions of Mo Fan and Jiang An had changed, Qian Weihe comforted them instead: "Actually, I have no regrets. I have been to Europe for five years, and I have consulted anyone I wanted to ask for advice. I have nothing to regret. And I Originally, I didn’t want to sell myself to that side, but this time I just took this opportunity to retire, and I still made money, so I don’t need to pay liquidated damages.”

"I shouldn't have let you go to Europe in the first place." Jiang An's face was very bad, "I'll go to the alley over there to get some fresh air, you can eat first."

After saying this, Jiang An really stood up, and walked to the entrance of the alley alone, but instead of taking a breath, he took out a cigarette and lit it, and leaned against the wall to put the cigarette in his mouth.

Jiang An has always been the most mature of the four of them, like today he is wearing formal clothes, driving a top-quality car, and going in and out of Zhao Yingjie's office.Although he didn't go to see Zhao Yingjie, it was not far away, and he was different from Mo Fan. Mo Fan borrowed the old man Lai's help, but he was raised by a family, and he was very calm in entering and exiting the agency.

Seeing Jiang An smoking there, Qian Weihe was a little stunned for a moment. When he went abroad, Jiang An was a well-known good student, almost a role model among his peers. He never smoked or drank alcohol on any occasion. When he was a peer or an elder, he never made people feel that he was not giving face.Qian Weihe was out of temper, and stayed with the rough guys on the football team again, so he naturally learned a little bit of bad manners, but Jiang An caught him several times while smoking, scolded him a few times, and bit him Teeth fell out.

I didn't expect Jiang An to be so skillful now.

Isn't this only allowed state officials to set fires, and the common people are not allowed to light lamps?Qian Weihe muttered something in his heart, but after thinking about it, he seemed to be the main reason why Jiang An went to smoke at this moment, and he lost the momentum to go to ask for guilt.Seeing that Mo Fan had almost eaten, Qian Weihe said, "You are too disrespectful, and you didn't help me just now."

Mo Fan said: "Can I intervene in the matter between you two?"

"That's right." Qian Weihe sighed helplessly: "You know, my old man was seriously ill when I was very young. At that time, my old man didn't know what to think, so he dragged Jiang An and asked him to watch me. , Don’t let me make mistakes. After that, Jiang An felt that I was his responsibility, could I be his responsibility? He is only a few months older than me.”

Mo Fan knew that Qian Wei and Jiang An grew up together, but he didn't know that there was such a period.Jiang An was a man who never leaked anything. Usually, people never felt that he was in charge of Qian Weihe, but how could Qian Weihe say such things for no reason?Jiang An must have done a lot of things that he and Zhang Zhongchun didn't know about.

In this way, things became very clear. Jiang An was blaming himself. He felt that he should not let Qian Weihe go to Europe.When one person sees the other as his own responsibility, the other person takes the blame for himself when something goes wrong.

Mo Fan said: "Don't pretend to be a hippie smile, Jiang An looks even more uncomfortable. You used to like football so much, but now you can't play, can you not feel uncomfortable?"

Qian Weihe messed with the rest of the food on the plate, and he said after a while: "I really couldn't accept it at first, I wanted to call and harass you one by one, to vent my depression. I just figured it out, it’s useless if I don’t accept it, the injured bone won’t heal on its own, so I obediently recuperate from the injury, and it’s really not easy to stand up again when I’m doing rehabilitation, I almost gave up several times Yes, but it’s all over.” Qian Weihe breathed a sigh of relief, “Now I really let go. Although I made many friends in Europe, I also met many anti-China people. There are those who call 'yellow pigs', and there are also those who trip up maliciously on the court. Sometimes when you go to an area that is pro-Chinese, you will feel that there is no distinction between people and people, and they can all play together. There are too many people who feel malicious towards Huaguo—but in fact, more places have neither malicious nor good intentions towards Huaguo. They don’t understand and don’t want to know what kind of place Huaguo is. There are good changes or bad changes, they are just following the trend and making noise. In recent years, China has been mentioned more and more times in Europe. There are more people who are pro-China, but the number of people who are anti-China is also growing. Of course, these are not things I can worry about. What I want to talk about is my experience over there in the past few years... No matter how good my football is, it is only my own glory, and I still have You have to sell yourself to the club over there to have a chance to reach the top. I think we can also play well in China. It is a good turning point for me to end that one-man battle early and return to China. , I can’t do big things, but I want to go out with our Huaguo football.”

"You're really mature." Jiang An, who walked back to the old shop at some point, quietly listened to Qian Weihe's words, and then interrupted, "Work hard, I can help you with money and people."

Qian Weihe gave a big smile and raised his fist towards Jiang An: "This is a good buddy!"

Jiang An also stretched out his fist.

The two fists collided heavily, and the knuckles were flushed.

Seeing Mo Fan burying his head in eating there again, Qian Weihe hooked his shoulders: "Mo Fan, I have my eyes on your Southwest, can you get the land?"

Mo Fan said bluntly: "I can't get it."

Qian Weihe didn't believe it, but he put his arms around him and pulled him towards him: "How is it possible? Your dad is now the leader in Southwest China, and you can't even get land. You've done too badly, right?"

Mo Fan was almost suffocated by him, so he had no choice but to stop talking about it: "You can apply for it yourself? Recently, the Southwest has been carrying out the 'Movement in the Southwest' and is introducing various projects. You can make a report. Not only do you have the land, but you can also get preferential policies, what a great thing? Do you still need me to help you find a place?"

"Is there still such a thing? Then I will really go to the southwest in a few days." Qian Weihe also raised a fist at Mo Fan, "Come here, buddy!"

Mo Fan clenched his hands and hit him with two fists - he used a lot of force to avenge the strangled just now.

Qian Weihe gritted his teeth in pain.

But I still feel old and happy.

After talking about his own affairs, Qian Weihe asked again: "Is there any news about February? This year I either had a competition or an accident, and I didn't contact him a few times. This time we are all in the capital but he is not here. Three missing one!" "

Jiang An said: "You probably all contradict foreign horoscopes." He briefly described Zhang Zhongchun's situation.

Qian Weihe was silent for a while after listening, and immediately made a decision: "Let's drive to Linyang later."

Mo Fan had no objection. Although he had a mission to come to the capital, Zhao Yingjie won't have time to see him until tomorrow afternoon, so today and tomorrow morning can be freely arranged.

Jiang An nodded, then walked away to make a few phone calls before coming back to drink soup.

The three cleaned up the food and got up to bid farewell to Uncle Ma.

Speaking of which, Zhang Zhongchun and Mo Fan are quite destined. Their hometowns are both in Linyang, and they both went to Kaiyang later. With this kind of coincidence, it is no wonder that Zhang Zhongchun regarded Mo Fan as his opponent and paid attention to him silently. for many years.Later, after Mo Fan was affected by Zheng Lao's death, Zhang Zhongchun even used this incident to stimulate Mo Fan and cheer him up!

Thinking of Zhang Zhongchun who dropped out of school and returned to his hometown in Linyang, Mo Fan couldn't help but sigh.Jiang An and Qian Weihe also felt sorry and puzzled, and didn't say much.

Linyang is Mo Fan's hometown, and he is very familiar with the road conditions, so he is obliged to act as a driver.Jiang An's car drove very smoothly, and its performance was also good. It ran very steadily at high speed, and it took only one and a half hours to see Linyang, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

Although grandpa and uncle moved away a long time ago, they all went to the southeast side.It is a paradise for the catering industry, so the uncle went there to sit in town, and the grandfather naturally followed.

Mo Fan still has feelings for this small town that has been both painful and happy. After entering the city, he slowed down a lot, quietly looking at the changed hometown.

The feeling of nostalgia settled in his heart for a while, and he drove to a street near Linyang High School according to the address reported by Jiang An.

The place where Zhang Zhongchun was staying now quickly appeared in front of their eyes.

——Linyang Internet City.
