A donkey was bumping along the mountain road, with Mr. Wang from Guoji Drug Store riding on its back.

Yesterday, Mr. Wang was diagnosing the pulse of an old woman in the drug store when he saw Tie Abacus walking in with Li Mingqiu. When the waiter saw Li Mingqiu, he was all smiles: "Are you two here to see a doctor or to take medicine?" Li Mingqiu remained calm and gave Tie Abacus's advice. With a look, Iron Abacus took out a pawn ticket from his arms and showed it in front of Mr. Wang.

Mr. Wang didn't look at the pawn ticket, but still concentrated on seeing the old woman. After checking her pulse, she prescribed medicine. After prescribing the medicine, he checked again and handed the medicine list to the waiter. The waiter began to take the medicine, and then Mr. Wang Then pick up the ticket and look at it carefully.

The pawn ticket stated: Guo Shuangyou (Guo Shanren) owed Li Mingqiu 600 silver dollars, and agreed to pawn the drug store to Li Mingqiu for three years. After three years, Guo Shuangyou would pay back the money in time, and the drug store would still belong to Guo Shuangyou. If it expires, If he was unable to repay the money, the drug store would become Li Mingqiu's permanent business.

Mr. Wang pushed the pawn ticket to the upper corner of the table, took off his glasses, breathed on the lenses, wiped them again, put on his glasses again, took the pawn ticket in his hand and looked at it again. Then he said slowly: "This pawn ticket is invalid."

Iron Abacus moved an old mouth in front of Mr. Wang, and the stench it spewed could knock Mr. Wang down: "Why? Tell me something."

Mr. Wang pointed to the chair in front of him, motioned for Iron Abacus to sit down, and fanned the stinky smell in front of him with his hand. He still spoke slowly and calmly: "The owner of this medicine shop is Guo Ziyi. Does Guo Shuang have the right to pawn his ancestral property?"

Iron Abacus was furious, stood up, put his hands behind his back, arched his waist, and moved his mouth in front of Mr. Wang again: "Who do you think you are from the Guo family? What does it have to do with you that the descendants of the Guo family pawn their ancestral property?"

Mr. Wang sneered, still unhurriedly: "What did Guo Shuangyou do? Why didn't he show up? I suspect you two used some tricks on Guo Shuangyou."

Li Mingqiu has been standing silently. Recently, he has been suffering from a kind of emotional trouble, feeling that it is difficult to distinguish between good and bad people. Especially when Yang Jiuwa helped him quit gambling and Guo Mazi returned his gambling debt, these two things shocked Li Mingqiu greatly. That man commanded more than a thousand guns. It was impossible for him to take Li Mingqiu, the little leader of the underworld, seriously. Throughout the ages, people have died for money and birds have died for food. All the fights in this world are all about one word, that is money. , The bustling world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle in the world is for profit. Could it be said that Guo Mazi has seen through the secular world? Or does he have some other purpose? The deeper truth Li Mingqiu couldn't figure out for a while. I feel that these people are not simple. You are ten times stronger.

At first, Li Mingqiu was quite enthusiastic about plotting against Guo Shanren's drug store, but when the drug store was about to be obtained, he was a little hesitant. That day, he took Guo Shanren's loan slip to Iron Abacus for negotiation. Among them, more than 200 silver dollars were paid by Guo Shanren himself. The rest of what the woman spent on Xiaocui was Guo Shanren's gambling debt owed to Li Mingqiu. Li Mingqiu meant that as long as Guo Shanren paid back the more than 200 silver dollars he spent, he didn't plan to take the rest. It felt right. Planning someone's business in this way is more insidious than robbery. But Iron Abacus is not the same. He thinks it is a crime to blame the gods for not catching turtles. Although it is a bad move to put Guo Shanren's medicine shop under the name of the Li family, it is not harmful. No husband, there is no shop like this after passing this village. To put it bluntly, Iron Abacus wants to be the shopkeeper of a medicine shop.

Li Mingqiu saw that his uncle was really pitiful. He was over sixty years old and had a naive son with two immature grandsons. He decided to help his uncle buy the medicine shop to relieve his worries and warned himself from the bottom of his heart that this immoral thing was just

Do it for the last time.

The uncle and nephew called Guo Shanren, and Li Mingqiu took out Guo Shanren's IOUs one by one, totaling more than five hundred. Li Mingqiu has been in the world for a long time, and his behavior seems to be bold, but in fact he kills people with soft knives without blood. He said,

We were just playing together for fun at the beginning. I didn't expect to poke such a big hole for Brother Guo, so I didn't plan to take the change. I just wanted to pay back the full five hundred.

Guo Shanren knew that such a day would come sooner or later, and he had already made a plan in his heart. He went home and asked the old shopkeeper Guo Ziyi for money. He still couldn't let go of his face. He wouldn't be able to come up with so much money for a while, and that was it.

He put on a posture like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water, and smiled strangely, which made Li Mingqiu feel scared. Did Guo Shanren want to default on the debt? Unexpectedly, Guo Shanren said: "It is natural for debts to be repaid, but today I still want to pay.

A mahjong game, the last one."

So the table was set up and Xiaocui from the brothel was called over, and the four of them gathered around to play mahjong. Guo Shanren looked particularly free and easy that day, and did not look worried at all. In fact, Guo Shanren had already found a way out for himself.

Just live a goddamn life for one more day! Then you will unknowingly understand that throughout the ages, gambling debts have forced people to death. This life of Guo Shanren is not worth anything. Instead of living in this world helplessly, it is better to die early.

If you are born early, the next generation must live to the forefront... At this moment, Peony Hong appeared without losing the opportunity. The moment Guo Shanren saw Peony Hong, his desire to live was reawakened. As long as he can be with Peony Hong

Staying together, he is willing to do anything.

Li Mingqiu said that he was treating a guest and invited everyone to drink at the Donkey Tavern, but Guo Shanren did not want to meet with his in-laws called Donkey. Chang Youli's steamed buns were also good, and then there was the Eight-Legged Mutton Restaurant. Everyone discussed it over and over again, and finally let the housekeeper

He went to the Donkey Tavern to cook a few dishes and brought them back. Iron Abacus rushed back to the house and brought a pack of Hardman cigarettes. The three men and two women gathered around and ate enthusiastically. After dinner, Guo Shanren said that he wanted to talk to Li Mingqiu alone.

, Li Mingqiu knew that Guo Shanren was already confident, so the two of them came to the back room.

Guo Shanren got straight to the point and spoke without any oblique remarks: "Brother Mingqiu, I am tired of this world. I originally planned to end my life tonight..."

Li Mingqiu was secretly surprised when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Brother Guo, I heard someone said that your family has more money than three carts can pull. It's not worth it to live and die for these few hundred silver dollars."

Guo Shanren said that he was not worried about the hundreds of gambling debts. He mainly felt that his life was useless. Li Mingqiu said, I know what you are reciting. Do you want to live with the hundreds of gambling debts? Guo Shanren said:

"Brother, you really look down on me. Now that the matter has come to an end, I'll tell you. Ask Peony Hong if she wants to go with me? If you want to bother me and give me another hundred silver dollars, I'll give it to you.

I will give you a note of six hundred silver dollars, and then I will pawn the drug store to you for three years. I plan to fly away with Peony Hong and never come back to Fengqi. After three years, if the old shopkeeper takes the money to redeem it, you will return the drug store to the Guo family.

If the old shopkeeper can't come up with the money, the pharmacy will be named Li from now on."

Li Mingqiu said: "I want to sell (equivalent to buying) your drug store."

Guo Shanren shook his head: "That's impossible. Si Lengzi is my son's grandfather, and Meng Donkey is my son's father-in-law. The interests are at stake. When the time comes, you won't be able to pass the test of those two people. Besides, the spit of Fengqi Town people

"The child is poisonous, and they will say that your uncle and nephew deceived Mr. Guo... I guess it is unlikely that my father will redeem the drug store, because I know his temper and temperament, and he will not take this opportunity."

Li Mingqiu thought to himself, it seems that Guo Shanren is not stupid, he has seen the next few moves clearly. He said: "Brother Guo, please wait a moment, let me calculate the total with uncle's iron abacus."

Guo Shanren knew that Iron Abacus was scheming and more difficult to deal with than Li Mingqiu, but he could not stop Li Mingqiu from discussing with Guo Shanren. So he said: "That's all for today. You guys will give me a reply after you have discussed it."

That night, for the first time in half a year, Guo Shanren did not stay outside for the night, and returned to his long-awaited drug store home ownership house. Mr. Wang had made it clear that he would not care about Guo Shanren's mischief outside, but there was one rule: Guo Shanren was not allowed to bring prostitutes there.

He came to the drug store, because the drug store is a clean place and cannot tolerate muddy water, and threatened Guo Shanren: If you do those sloppy things in the drug store, I will quit working immediately and go home to retire. People from dozens of miles around will go to Mr. Wang for medical treatment.

Come, the medicine shop will collapse as soon as Mr. Wang leaves. Guo Shanren does not dare to offend Mr. Wang and never brings those from other religions to the medicine shop.

The candles on the candlesticks were covered with a thick layer of dirt. I spread out the bedding and smelled a musty smell. This room had not been lived in for a long time. For many years, Guo Shanren had been unable to untie a knot in his mind. He suspected that Guo Quanfa was not

His biological son. He only remembers that his wife took the initiative to express her love to him on the wedding night. Guo Shanren had been studying in a private school for several years and understood the ancient saying that a good horse will not serve two masters and a good girl will not marry two men. Regarding this woman on the kang, he

Still losing interest and impulse, feeling a sense of shame that he had been blasphemed, he pushed his wife away coldly and wrapped the quilt tightly by himself, but could not fall asleep and listened to her crying all night long.

One time Guo Shanren was ill, and his wife was kneeling on the tea stove in the yard to cook medicine for him. Guo Shanren accidentally glanced at his wife and saw that the seam of his trousers was open, revealing his snow-white buttocks and the forest between her buttocks...

...That night, Guo Shanren got into his wife's bed and inserted the plowshare into the ravine. However, Guo Shanren could not feel the excitement and excitement. The ravine was cold and damp, and there seemed to be a musty smell, but the daughter-in-law did not.

Extremely excited, he hugged Guo Shanren tightly and stuck his tongue into Guo Shanren's mouth.

After that, Guo Shanren found out that his daughter-in-law had a gynecological disease, probably because he did not pay attention to maintenance after the dilation and curettage, and she suffered a lifelong hidden disease. He did not want to sleep with his daughter-in-law anymore because it was a kind of torture. However, his daughter-in-law became pregnant after ten months.

Later, he gave birth to his son Guo Quanfa.

This matter has been suppressed for nearly twenty years, and Guo Shanren has never told anyone. Tonight, at another turning point in his life, the past is like smoke, appearing in front of his eyes, lingering in his heart, and he can't help it for a long time.

Dispersed. His blood is full of emotions, and he often sheds tears for no reason when watching a play. Sometimes the play has ended, and he still stands under the stage, unwilling to leave for a long time. He needs a home and someone who knows him.

Leng Zhire's daughter-in-law, he is afraid of living alone, and his empty soul needs to be filled.

Guo Shanren decided that as long as Mudanhong was willing to follow him, he would take Mudanhong with him to live in seclusion in an unknown place. He still knew a little bit of medical skills. As long as he worked hard, he would not die of hunger... The window showed

After a ray of sunshine, Guo Shanren didn't sleep all night.
