Blood and Bone Chapter Forty-Nine
At about nine o'clock in the evening, the police car took us to our hometown station and wanted to send us home separately, but we declined. If my family saw me being sent back by the police car, they would definitely think that we had caused trouble again. The policeman smiled and said he understood, and then
He said goodbye to us and returned.
After the three of us said goodbye briefly at the station, we all took a taxi home. I got off the car more than a hundred meters away from home. Looking at my home not far away, the warm lights were still on, like a beacon.
Waiting for its wanderer to return. Half a year ago, I didn’t have much attachment to this home, but at this moment, home is indeed the most important to me, because my favorite parents are there.
The distance of more than 100 meters is not long. I actually walked for ten minutes, and I had a personal experience of the saying "I feel more timid when I'm close to my hometown." It wasn't a long time away from home, but what was the first thing I said when I met my parents?
That's great, I didn't have any idea for a moment. I racked my brains and thought while walking, and unknowingly arrived at the gate of the community.
I didn’t want to think about it and just went up to talk about it. After thinking about it, I walked into the door and suddenly found two black figures walking towards me quickly. It was hot and dark and I couldn’t see clearly. I got nervous and immediately threw away my backpack and put it into combat preparation.
posture.
"You're ready to serve as a soldier, right?" one of the dark figures opposite shouted.
No! Why is this voice so familiar? It's Dad! I immediately put down my guard and watched the two black figures approaching. It was really Mom and Dad, with a thick layer of snow already falling on their bodies, Mom's mask and Dad's beard
There was white frost on the ground. It seemed that the two of them had been waiting for a long time. I felt warm and quickly stepped forward to pat the snow off my mother's body.
"You bastard! You have been in the army for a few days and you have learned some tricks like a three-legged cat, so you are going to deal with your dad, right?" Dad pretended to be angry and said.
"You old Qi, you are not doing your job right!" Mom said reproachfully to Dad: "My son took such a long ride to get home, hurry up and prepare the food, don't look for trouble here!" After that, she urged Dad.
Dad muttered in a low voice to express his dissatisfaction, but he still took my backpack and followed behind my mother and me. He eavesdropped on our chat from time to time and interjected a few words from time to time, but was interrupted by my mother.
It turns out that according to time calculation, my parents should have arrived home at around 7pm, but they never waited for me, so they waited very anxiously downstairs until now. Afraid that they would be frightened, they hid the incident about meeting the robbers on the road.
He said that the train was delayed and passed by.
This dinner was very sumptuous. My mother would bring me dishes from time to time and ask me in detail about my life in the past six months. My father just drank wine and looked at me and smiled without saying much. He only heard that I asked the major general to buy
When I was smoking, I muttered to myself that this shouldn't be done. My mother really ridiculed my father, saying that he was better than me back then, and asked my father to talk about how he struggled in the army! My father said to prepare a bath for me.
The water ran away for some reason.
Our family kept chatting until midnight. If my father hadn't stopped me, my mother would have talked with me all night long. When they all left and I was lying on the bed, I realized that I had really left the army temporarily and was truly free to rest.
Already! The fatigue from the journey came over me, and I fell asleep beautifully.
In the morning, before dawn, I got up and folded the quilt into tofu cubes. This was not something I did deliberately, but maybe it was a habit accumulated over time. My biological clock was already used to this. Seeing that my parents hadn’t gotten up yet, I went out and bought breakfast.
When my parents got up and saw it, my mother kept lamenting that her son had grown up. My father criticized me without caring and said that he was still far behind a real military officer, but his tone was obviously not a criticism, but rather a bit gratifying.
Originally, my parents wanted to take me to visit relatives and friends today, but they were interrupted by Lin Yang who came early in the morning. Lin Yang knew that I came back last night and didn't wait for my call, so he came directly here early in the morning.
.My parents already liked Lin Yang, and Lin Yang had a sweet mouth. They coaxed the two old people into blooming with their greetings. They urged Lin Yang and me to go out to play with faces full of joy. They also said that there was no need to worry about visiting relatives. I will come back this time.
He didn't bring any casual clothes, so he could only go out with Lin Yang in his military uniform.
Lin Yangni and I spent the whole morning together, enjoying this two-person world that is not bound by time. At noon, we found a specialty snack shop to satisfy our hunger. The specialty of this small shop is "shabu-shabu"! That's it!
Cut the pork belly into small squares, skewer it with bamboo skewers, and cook it in a spicy soup pot. Because the taste is pure and the ingredients are solid, the business is very good. The two of us waited in line for a long time.
Seats. But there is a table at the end of the shop that is empty, but no customers are arranged. I was very surprised and asked the waiter why? He just said that this table has been booked for a month, and even if he does not come to eat, he will still pay as usual, but he comes every day
Everyone is different. They eat without credit anyway, so restaurants are not surprised.
After listening to his introduction, I thought to myself that the person who made the reservation must be mentally ill! Come here if you want to eat, why bother to make reservations like this, it’s such a waste! It has nothing to do with me, I don’t think so much, I quickly served the food and ate and chatted with Lin Yang enthusiastically
Talking about the love between two people is extremely satisfying.
Lin Yang and I were enjoying our meal when we saw a group of people coming outside the door. They all looked sinister and obviously did not look like good people. This group of people were familiar with each other and sat at the reserved table, shouting and yelling.
He shouted to the waiter to serve food and wine, but the waiter did not dare to neglect. The wine and food were quickly served, and the group of people began to eat and drink.
Lin Yang noticed that I always looked at this group of people secretly, and asked me curiously: "Liangzi, do you know them?"
"I don't know him!" I replied: "But there is someone who looks very familiar to me. I think I have seen him somewhere?"
Lin Yang advised me to ignore them and go watch a movie together after dinner. I said yes, but I kept thinking in my heart, who is this person? I have indeed seen him, but I can't remember where I saw him.
This group of people may have gradually drunk a little too much, and they chatted without any scruples. They talked about where they fought and stabbed someone, where they hung flowers, etc. They seemed to be very proud. Their voices were also loud.
It got bigger and bigger, scaring away several diners in the hotel. The boss didn't dare to interfere and could only let it go.
Until this familiar person said, "Brothers, please drink in moderation. Don't drink too much and delay tomorrow morning."
One of them responded: "Uncle Hai, don't worry! This little wine will be fine. It's just Brother Hua's matter. It will be settled in a few seconds!"
Uncle Hai! When I heard this name, my mind was agitated. I remembered who this person was! He was the boss brother of Beicheng Big Brother. He even blocked me at the school gate back then. I glanced at him secretly. That's right.
It's him! What they said seems to be related to Brother Hua, but the words are obviously not good things. Although Brother Hua is not kind to me, he at least saved me. I must find out what happened. I thought
I braced myself to listen to this.
"Qiangzi, why don't you drink some fucking cat urine, and you won't be able to keep your mouth shut!" Uncle Hai scolded dissatisfied. The man named Qiangzi quickly apologized and admitted his mistake, and then several people looked around vigilantly to see if there were any
I was eavesdropping. Maybe it was because I was wearing a military uniform, and the army had been training for half a year. It had changed a lot from before, and Uncle Hai didn’t recognize me. Seeing that no one was eavesdropping, the few of them felt a little more settled, but they never talked about Brother Hua again.
They were all talking about useless things. After more than half an hour, they got up after finishing their meal, asked the waiter to write Dahan's account and left.
The person who booked the table was Dahan, and the person who ate was Uncle Hai. They were talking about Brother Hua. There must be something fishy in this! After thinking about it, I said to Lin Yang: "My dear, I can't watch a movie with you in the afternoon.
I have something very important to do, and I can’t tell you now!"
Lin Yang was very dissatisfied after hearing this. I coaxed her for a while and sent her home. I promised her to stay with her from tomorrow onwards before she agreed to let me go. Without further ado, I immediately took a taxi to get there.
The restaurant where my ribs were broken is owned by Brother Hua. I should be able to contact him here.
When I arrived at the hotel, it was already past lunch time. Apart from the cleaning staff, there was only a bald man with a gold chain who was calculating business turnover. I knew this man. He was from Brother Hua. After I was injured that year,
, it was he who helped me cut my clothes and check my wounds. After I announced my door, I directly told the content of Uncle Hai’s conversation at lunch. The bald man thought for a while, picked up the phone and called the pager, and it took a while before the call came back.
, it’s Brother Hua!
I grabbed the phone and quickly recounted the matter. Brother Hua only said one sentence on the phone: "Half an hour! Wait for me." Then he hung up. Half an hour later, there was a parking sound outside the hotel, bj212 Jeep
Here it is, it’s Brother Hua’s car! But it’s not Brother Hua who got off, but another person I’ve met, who is also someone close to Brother Hua.
After this person came, he told me that he was San Pao, Brother Hua’s kowtow brother. Brother Hua is not in Baicheng now and will only come back from the provincial capital tomorrow. I specially arranged for him to come over and ask what was going on? I told him what I heard at the hotel at noon.
He said it in detail. After hearing this, Sanpao muttered to himself: "Dahan is really careless. He wants to burn down the bridge!" After saying that, he called Brother Hua directly. The two talked for more than half an hour, as if
They keep talking about Beicheng demolition, director, etc., but I don’t know what they mean.
Sanpao waited until Sanpao and Hua Ge finished the phone call before Sanpao said to me: "Liangzi, Hua Ge asked me to bring you a message. Thank you brother! I will treat you to a meal when he comes back. In addition, Hua Ge also said
, if you have time tomorrow, come to this restaurant at 12 noon to watch the excitement." After that, he left directly.
I was confused when I heard it, why did you come to watch the fun at noon? What did you mean? When I asked the bald head, he just smiled and said that Brother Hua has his own arrangements. If you want to come, come, if you don't want to, just don't come!
I was thinking about this all the way home, but I couldn't figure it out. It wasn't until I went to the hotel at noon the next day that I learned about the whole thing.
It's settled.
To be continued!
