Ten Mile Room

Chapter 20

The night he met Jiang Gezi, Yu Dongchi had messy dreams all night and slept very restlessly.

When he got up in the morning, he looked at the roof in wonder, feeling incredible.

Jiang Gezi didn't know that someone had dreamed for him all night.

Even if you know it, people like Yu Dongchi will also say: "Brother thinks too much!"

The great Earth TV series tell us that falling in love with such a person will be heart-piercing for at least [-] episodes, and the painful material is enough to make three seasons of TV series.

And, in order to make more money, those TV series always like open endings.

How terrible!

Why should he fill other people's pits in his life?

He has been so busy recently that he has not had a good day.

From the day when Grandma Wugu was sent off, the relocation of Laosan Alley began.

Compared with the joy of young people, the elderly and children are reluctant to part.Therefore, under the trees on this street, there are always various nostalgic groups with tears in their eyes, or they say in the past, or they have appointments for gatherings, and there are even dead beggars, crying for their relatives.

I've never seen them so close before.

Last weekend, some old neighbors came to the house to discuss with Jiang Gezi. They said, "Leaving without any explanation, I always feel uncomfortable, so I asked Mr. Ganzi if Sanxiangzi collectively raised funds and put on the stage over there." Two days of running water banquets, a solemn meal of separation, is a good ending.

Eat as you please, Jiang Gezi nodded, and those old men who love to take care of things have found their spiritual sustenance, so they start to calculate the general account, find a cook, and start to collect the food expenses for the breakup from door to door.

This is asking for money!Once the steel-like neighborliness, cracks began to appear again.

You can eat, but you can’t pay for it.

If you don't pay, you won't eat.

Why?

Don't give me food, everyone don't eat!

right!There are always strange people in this world who can tell you strange truths.

For example, how much does a five-year-old charge?How old is an adult?Do you want to invite a troupe?

and so on...

Uncle Huang, who used to be the master, hid, and a few old men took over the troublesome matter aggrievedly. They couldn't handle it, so they saw Master Tianganzi blackmailing in the meeting hall, begging Jiang Gezi to be the master.

Jiang Gezi had been thinking about sending away the tired Lian Yanzi for a few days. No, he received a letter from Lian Yanzi the day before yesterday.

There is a thick one, more than a dozen pages of letter paper, filled with a lot of data.Jiang Gezi couldn't understand those data no matter what, so he had to throw them aside.

Along with the letter, he also received a huge package, which contained everything from formal clothes to pajamas to close-fitting clothing. The most inexplicable thing was that even Yanzi sent back a share transfer letter from the exploration company?

Jiang Gezi didn't quite understand what this share transfer letter was transferred to him, so he signed it, stuffed a few more bags of dried beef as required, and sent it back to Lian Yanzi.

At noon that day, Jiang Gezi quickly hid at the entrance of the alley when he saw that the family was arguing endlessly. He half-lyed and half sat on the blue stone on the second floor of the stage to watch the excitement.

Off the stage, Deng Changnong was guarding a huge beer barrel, and there was a plastic pot of boiled peanuts for sale.

Lin Yuanchun, who could no longer speak, held a heavy iron pipa in his arms and played it earnestly.

Once You Yin'er made a mistake, Leader Xue, who was lying on the side, would hit him on the head with a blind stick.

Lin Yuanchun didn't even dare to shrink his neck, so he endured it forcefully. As long as Team Master Xue said he was wrong, he would start all over again without a temper, and the cycle went on and on. His ten fingers were covered with blood, but he didn't cry out for pain.

Standing aside He Mingchuan and Deng Changnong were busy working with envy on their faces. Although their ten fingers were covered with adhesive tape and their heads were all covered in bags by Team Leader Xue, they are now willing to pay out of their extravagant expectations for money. Do anything hard.

What is art?

If you give them money, they are willing to kneel down and shine shoes.

Seeing this, the once enthusiastic music youth has become the iron rooster group of Laosanxiang. No, the iron rooster can no longer describe their money-loving spirit.

They should be called sugar cocks.

They don't pull out a hair, and they still think about sticking something back all day long.

Old Mrs. He was sitting at the entrance of an alley far away, making shoes while accompanying her grandson from afar.

She didn't feel distressed at all on her face, she was actually beaming with joy, whenever Lin Yuanchun was beaten, she would shake her head for joy.

Holding a big teapot in his hand, Deng Changnong walked up to Mr. Xue, filled his water cup, and said loudly, "I'll fill it up for you...you always pay attention to ideas. I just filled it up for you. This water is hot!"

Leader Xue snorted: "I know! Why are you so loud? I'm not blind! Can't I touch? Do you think I'm you?"

Deng Changnong rubbed his head and smiled, then turned around and went to work again.

Yes... Since when did you want to worship Grandpa Xue like a god?

Probably from the day Grandpa Xue sang the song!

It's been a whole month of wind and rain, so it's better for Grandpa Xue to open his voice and sing a song and get more money.

Why didn't I find out before?There really are such quick ways to make money in the world.

When my family forced me to learn crafts, what was I thinking?

Deng Changnong didn't regret it once, he regretted it all the time.

Jiang Gezi watched happily.

When he finished his messy work, looking back, the three of them started to hang around the old blind man like filial sons and virtuous grandchildren.

Jiang Gezi is very rare for Team Leader Xue.

Moreover, besides Jiang Gezi, he was the third strange person in Laosanxiang.

The bragging point of art, the three BOOS lines in Laosan Alley, Uncle Huang is considered elementary, Jiang Gezi is the ultimate, and Master Xue is more like a hidden line task BOOS.

One or two ordinary people can't find him if they don't observe carefully.

Don't care about this old man being homeless, it's because he wants to be homeless!People would like to live under the stage.

People are rich and self-willed, so rich that Uncle Huang was not as good as him when he was a consultant in Hengze.

Don't look at him lying down in the sun for a day, but the material that people often wear in all seasons is the jacquard satin of double cocoon silk.

In the old days, no matter whether the food was good, the restaurants in Laosan Alley traditionally had any good ingredients, and as long as they had any good ingredients, they would first send the waiter to ask him, if they brought in some good ingredients, do you always eat them?

Wait until the dishes arrive.

He is also under the big stage, sitting cross-legged on the ground casually, takes out a small cloth bag from his arms, takes out a silver spoon from it, and a pair of ivory chopsticks wrapped in silver, and eats every dish casually. After a few mouthfuls, I stopped moving my mouth.

Just like this, the chef of the time-honored brand will ask him cautiously every few days, do you always feel that the fish that day was cooked can still be eaten?

No entry?

Then you always give me some advice, so I can improve.

Leader Xue never paid for his meals, and he didn't know who paid for his meals.

In those days, he was much more nourished than Jiang Gezi.

What's more, he has no children and no daughters, so he can be strong without desires.

If he has a bad temper, he will scold you if he is not used to it, and he will not talk to you. You really can't care about it, he is really blind.

In this old alley, apart from even Yanzi, he can earn a little or two of his respect, as for the others, it is impossible for anyone to come.

This old thing is arrogant and hypocritical.

He lived his life lazily, and never worried about whether he would be old and homeless.

He will not be without support!

Really.

Throughout the year, there are always all kinds of well-dressed old ladies over 50 and [-] years old. The old man comes to Laosan Alley to join him. He sings a cappella at [-] o'clock. It depends on whether the old man is happy Happy.

When it was time to change the solar terms, those old audience members would come to give him clothes. Leader Xue's clothes from the inside to the outside were all prepared by these people.

Leader Xue has a bright voice, he can play any kind of tunes, and he can easily go from the end of the alley to the end of the alley as long as he opens his voice without using tools such as amplifiers.

Jiang Gezi had heard it a few times, and thought that Tian Lai was nothing more than that.

Leader Xue's voice is a bit expensive, and the old neighbors can't listen to it, so most of the time, what everyone listens to is the iron pipa that the old man played casually after he woke up.

The pipa music is also nice. When he is in a good mood, the whole alley is full of green mountains and green waters, full of tenderness.

However, most of the time, this old man can always make others thunder and lightning, and the anger in his heart is unbearable.

Art...is always so interesting.

I don't understand why this old man is always so angry!

Some people who don't understand from other places will send money to the ground in front of Mr. Xue after listening to the old man's pipa, and Mr. Xue has never bent down once.

He is not begging for food!

Therefore, if he didn't bend down to take it, neither would the old neighbors.

This is cheap for the silly forsythia who takes out the garbage in Laosanxiang.

Forsythia is a woman, no... a girl?

Although she is more than 40 years old, she can be regarded as a younger baby, because her intelligence cannot exceed five years old in her entire life.

Just like everyone has a fool in their childhood memories, the fool in the childhood memories of the two generations of Laosanxiang is Forsythia.

When Forsythia's mother was alive, she worked in the Changhui County Pharmacy Bureau, and was a serious doctor of traditional Chinese medicine dispensing.

When Forsythia was born, wine was placed in her house in a serious manner.

But who would have thought that the child was a fool.

At that time, I often heard Lianqiao's grandma complaining about her daughter-in-law, saying that it was because she was busy and locked the child at home. The child didn't learn anything, and his reaction became slower and slower, and then he became a fool.

When the old lady started talking nonsense, there was no need to find any reason to refute them in this world, and it was useless to say anything.

Later, the couple divided the contract, and Lianqiao's mother never concluded the contract again, so she kept her job.

I don't know when it started. Every day before the sun rises, the mother and daughter will quietly walk in the old alleys, sweeping the streets and collecting garbage.

Forsythia's mother never helped her, she just followed her daughter silently, sometimes she would beat her when she saw that she couldn't do well, and kept telling her to do it repeatedly until the meeting.

In the end, Forsythia became the official cleaner in Laosanxiang. She had a work unit and social insurance.

Then, and then... Lianqiao's mother passed away peacefully one morning.

Forsythia became the child of Laosanxiang collective.

Sometimes, Jiang Gezi gets lazy offstage, and when there are many people, someone will point to him from behind and say, "Master Ganzi, look, that's Forsythia's father, a wolf-hearted, ruthless one." people.

After hearing this, Jiang Gezi just looked up.

What can he do?

He does not represent justice in the world.

Master Xue played the pipa, and the ground in front of him could be covered with several layers of odd banknotes.

When the crowd dispersed, the chubby Forsythia suddenly rushed out from the corner with a broom under her arm and a dustpan, and then she pretended to be very serious , where to clean...

Everything on the ground is forsythia.

Today is also such a day.

Leader Xue played a heartbreaking iron pipa tune early in the morning. Most of the old neighbors left, and he cleared up the heartbroken neighbors several times a day.

The temperature of the sun puts people in a good mood, and Jiang Gezi teased her when he saw Lianqiao sweeping a bunch of small bills.

"Forsythia!"

Forsythia, who was arranging banknotes, looked up at him stupidly when she heard the words, and shouted very enthusiastically: "Grandpa is good!"

This grandpa is good, he gives sweets, money, and protects her.

She can tell who is good from who is bad.

In Lianqiao's eyes, all men in the world are grandpas and all women are grandmas, no matter how old you are.

And her way of addressing her was taught by her mother.

Jiang Gezi rejoiced, and pretended to be in great pain, and said to Lianqiao, "Forsythia, Lianqiao, I'm starving to death, what should I do?"

ah?What to do?

Forsythia made it difficult.

How to do it?

She looked around in confusion, and some old neighbors teased her.

"Lianqiao, buy your grandfather Pigeon a bag of peanuts to eat! Look, he's going to starve to death."

Dream it!

Give someone money?Not to mention doors, there are no windows!

Forsythia's fat body suddenly jumped up, she picked up her sweeping tool, and disappeared in a flash.

She is obese, and when she runs, you can feel the ground shaking.

Jiang Gezi laughed out loud, and finally collapsed on the stone strips of the stage with so much joy.

Leader Xue didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said to him: "Why do you bother to tease her, seeing that the sky came to me to collect money, but she didn't even give me a penny."

Jiang Gezi was about to speak, but when he looked up, he saw a man wearing glasses quietly watching him from the corner of the street.

Recently, this person has been looking at him furtively.

When I open the door of my house in the morning, I always see some odds and ends at the door.

Sometimes it was a bag of fruit, sometimes it was some dried fruit, and once there was an envelope with twenty coins in it.

Is it fun to do this?

Jiang Gezi pretended not to see him, so he turned his head to Team Leader Xue and said, "Oh, all the people in the street are not as smart as you. Let me tell you, old Team Leader, what are you three errands doing?" like?"

Leader Xue smiled indifferently: "Look at what you said, what kind of errands? I don't care about them running errands? It's almost like a big trouble! If you have the ability, can you get it back?"

Jiang Gezi's face was full of disgust: "Where is it? I'm sick, I'll take it back!"

"Wherever you like, wherever you like, I don't have a problem with it!"

"Yeah, I was wrong, you old Jade, you keep it!"

Leader Xue picked up the cup, touched the cup of noodles a few times, finished drinking, put down the cup, and then said in a slightly helpless tone: "I am not a good deed... When I came on stage on eleventh, the Qing Xianer The first song was played by that little guy's grandfather, he was only about seventeen or eighteen years old at that time... he is a pretty good guy."

Jiang Gezi, an outsider, nodded. The friendship of Laosanxiang will be passed on for several generations. No wonder He Mingchuan's grandma is still smiling happily watching him being beaten.

But it turned out that they had known each other for a long time.

Jiang Gezi sat up slowly, picked up the camera beside him and said to Team Leader Xue:

"Come on! Old class leader, let me take a photo for you."

In front of the ancient stage, Mr. Xue was holding his iron pipa. He had a solemn expression, as if the whole world was rubbish and he owed me five cents.

And not far from him, Deng Changnong with a beer mug in his hand, with an awkward expression, and silly Lianqiao poking his head out of the corner.

Jiang Gezi thought the scene was good, so he put them all under one shot.

After the photo was taken, Jiang Gezi sat in the shade to pick up the film.

While he was busy, a pair of feet suddenly appeared in front of him.

Jiang Gezi slowly raised his face.

Oh, it's him!

Jiang Gain looked embarrassed and guilty.

He looked at the young man in front of him, and didn't know what kind of expression he should show, and what language he should use to explain to him how miserable and helpless he had been.

He knew that he was responsible, so he lost his father's courage and stand.

Jiang Gezi looked like a normal person, first smiled at him, and then said, "Please trouble me."

Jiang Zeng's face was overjoyed, and immediately lowered his spine a little, and asked cautiously: "Oh! You, you say, you say..."

Jiang Gezi waved his hand: "Make room, block me."

Jiang Gain was stunned in embarrassment.

After a while, he moved his footsteps to the side.

Jiang Gezi lowered his head, fiddled with the camera and said, "Go away! Your corpse is too big, it affects your mood."

"Nan Nan, I am..."

Jiang Gezi didn't look up.

"I know who you are!"

Jiang Gain's expression brightened: "You, you know! You still remember..."

Jiang Gezi still didn't look up:

"I remember everything! I know everything. A construction company and two living quarters are only a few hundred meters away. What are you talking about now?"

Jiang Gezi closed the back cover, raised his face to look at him, then smiled lightly and shook his head: "I remember, you have formed a bond again, right?"

Jiang Gain felt guilty, and replied stammeringly, "Well... yes! Who, who told you?"

Deng Changnong came over with a tray in both hands, put down a glass of beer and a plate of salted peanuts.

Jiang Gezi picked up the cup and took a sip. After drinking, he gave Deng Changnong a thumbs up and said, "This one is good, it's easier to eat than last time."

Deng Changnong smiled shyly and said, "Well! The last one brews rice, and the beer is better made from barley. It costs seven hundred dollars per barrel. You... have another try with the peanuts."

He looked at Jiang Gezi eagerly.

Jiang Gezi picked up a peanut and broke it open, chewed the nuts a few times and nodded, "I told you, coarse salt tastes better!"

Deng Changnong nodded vigorously. After nodding, he took out another envelope from his arms and put it beside Jiang Gezi, then turned and left.

Jiang Gezi watched him go away, then picked up the envelope and opened it, and here was a stack of brand new banknotes, counting them, there were five.

While he was counting, someone beside him said leisurely: "You...you should learn a craft and make a living."

Jiang Gezi stopped, squinting at the person beside him.

Jiang Gain said with a little restraint and inexplicable justice: "This... this is not a serious matter after all..."

He looked at the banknote in Jiang Gezi's hand.

Jiang Gezi immediately took out the banknotes and prepared to count them again.

The country aunt passed by with a basket on her shoulders, talking loudly.

"Soft Mahua!! Soft Mahua!! Soft Mahua with bean paste filling!! Soft Mahua with rose filling for five cents..."

After the aunt walked away, Jiang Gezi said sarcastically, "I said, this Mr. Jiang?"

Jiang Gain looked at Jiang Gezi weakly and pleadingly.

Jiang Gezi asked him: "After the contract was formed, did you have a kid again?"

Jiang Gain nodded: "Well, there are three, oh! I mean, three girls, the youngest is two years old, and the oldest is nine years old."

"Is it rare?"

Jiang Gain looked at Jiang Gezi in confusion.

Jiang Gezi swallowed a mouthful of beer and licked the hops on his lips: "I mean, do you like your daughters?"

Jiang Gain hesitated for a long time. He didn't know how to answer. After a while, he guessed Jiang Gezi's mood and replied cautiously: "Hi...I like you, I have...loved you before! You... Don't blame me, I... I... only when your uncle is gone."

He was always hesitant, always in doubt.

However, a soft, kind-looking person like him is the most ruthless, because he always has a set of reasons to justify himself.

Jiang Gezi didn't wait for him to say those helpless reasons, he interrupted quickly and said: "From now on, just pretend not to know each other!"

Jiang Zeng raised his head sharply to look at him.

Jiang Gezi put down his beer glass and said while eating peanuts: "I treat you as dead, so you should treat me as dead too! Go live your life and raise your little boy well, oh, daughter! You go Be your good son, good husband, as for us..."

He looked at Jiang Gain, bowed his head until he saw that there was nothing to hide, and then said, "In order to avoid you thinking too much, I will tell you frankly that I will never have anything to do with you in this life, so you also put away you." Those silly moves! Okay?"

Jiang Zeng's lips trembled, and it took him a long time before he nodded helplessly and said, "I...I, I...I'm sorry for you, I..."

Jiang Gezi waved his hand neatly, pointed to the way he came, and said, "Let's go! Don't come out to be an eyesore! You must have found out who I am! I'm not threatening you. If you want to keep your decent job, you have to be honest. Yes, neatly...disappear in front of me! From now on, don’t send those messy garbage to my house! Did you hear me!?”

Jiang Zeng's lips trembled, his whole body was weak, he stood up tremblingly, looked at Jiang Gezi eagerly, and felt that he had a thousand words to explain.

But, this kid, why does he look so scary!

He is his father!

Jiang Gezi was expressionless, and even looked at him with some disgust.

So, he was cowardly again.

I can only walk away step by step towards the way I came from.

As he walked, he blamed himself, why do I have such a stupid mouth?Should I tell him that I went to see him, but was kicked out by his grandmother? Should I tell him about my helplessness... My family has a life, and... I paid child support ...

Jiang Gezi kept seeing him disappear, so he stretched boredly and slowly stood up.

"Soft Mahua...soft Mahua stuffed with bean paste..."

"Auntie!"

"Hey!"

"Here are six twists!"

For a moment, Jiang Gezi squatted not far from Forsythia, facing her, and ate all six twists!

Not a single forsythia was given!
