This small town located in the southwest of Nanchuan Province in China is surrounded by water on three sides and backed by mountains on one side. It is as hot as a steamer emitting white steam.
At the beginning of the lanterns, the most prosperous pedestrian street in Mingxi County is full of people, bustling and prosperous.
"Let's set up a stall!" Several shouts came from an alley behind the pedestrian street, and then all kinds of pushcarts miraculously appeared in alleys extending in all directions. Men, women, old and young with different skin colors came from the corners of the alleys.
After getting out, a crowd of people gathered and headed towards the pedestrian street.
Walking at the end were a middle-aged woman and a teenager.
The boy's name is Fang Ming. He is fifteen years old and lives with his mother Lin Guifang. The mother and son depend on each other and make a living by setting up stalls and running night markets.
Fang Ming dragged the cart, turned through the alley, and quickly came to the pedestrian street.
After putting down the trolley and taking down the barbecue trolley, various side dishes were lined up, as well as polished oil and salt jars.
"All kinds of barbecue, come and see, come and buy!" Fang Ming shouted twice, and put a handful of mutton skewers on the iron plate to grill. The flames burned the mutton, and it soon became golden and translucent, and the aroma was overflowing.
.
Today's business was good, and he sold twenty strings quickly. Fang Ming said happily: "Mom, you go back first, and I will go home when everything is sold out."
Lin Guifang wiped the messy hair on her forehead, her face showing a unique calmness. Fang Ming has become accustomed to her mother's calmness. For so many years, even at the bottom of society, her mother's speech and behavior have remained the same.
With a kind of elegance and calmness that is different from ordinary people.
Looking at the wrinkles on his mother's forehead, Fang Ming suddenly felt a little sad: "Mom, I have already been admitted to Mingxi High School. I will work hard to get into college and try to get out of work as soon as possible so that you can enjoy happiness!"
"Son, it's enough for you to have this heart!" Lin Guifang smiled happily, picked up the cattail leaf fan and started fanning it for Fang Ming.
Today's business was surprisingly good. We came out at 6:30 and most of them were sold out by 7 o'clock. The mother and son were chatting and laughing, and the time passed very quickly.
"Woo--" A shrill cry suddenly rang out, causing nearby vendors to panic. A middle-aged man in his forties shouted: "Hurry up, the cat is coming!"
"Mao'er" is an alias given to the urban management by the vendors. When I heard that "Cat" was coming, the whole pedestrian street was covered with waving masks, and all kinds of jingling sounds could be heard. It was very spectacular.
"Run, I tell you to run!" With a loud roar, four law enforcement vehicles lined up in a row, and with a "crash" sound, dozens of tall and powerful men rushed out of the vehicles, waving batons.
He rushed towards the vendors.
Pots, pans, and dishes were rolling all over the floor. Several urban management officers caught a middle-aged woman and confiscated her fruits.
"Brother, okay, okay, okay if I don't show off?" The middle-aged woman reluctantly grabbed the fruit basket.
"Go away, or we will send you to the police station and handcuff you!" A city management officer ignored the pleading of a middle-aged woman and forcibly confiscated her fruit and loaded it into a law enforcement vehicle.
The middle-aged woman sat down on the ground, crying. The urban management officers stepped over her and continued to chase the fleeing vendors.
Fang Ming has been setting up a stall with his mother Lin Guifang since he was a child. Fang Ming has experienced many battles. The moment the urban management showed up, Fang Ming quickly put the barbecue cart on the cart, grabbed the handle of the cart and ran towards the alley. His mother
Lin Guifang followed behind.
After turning a few corners, Fang Ming left the urban management behind. Just when he was gasping for breath from exhaustion, a group of people wearing light blue uniforms suddenly appeared at the entrance of the alley ahead.
A tall urban management officer came over, waving a baton in his hand and holding a cigarette in his mouth: "I told you to run. I tell you, in order to meet the provincial health and city inspection this time, no stalls are allowed to be set up.
.Come here, take the cart away for me!"
Fang Ming grabbed his mother, turned around and ran away. Several urban management officials quickly caught up with him and struck down their batons crazily. His mother, Lin Guifang, was hit on the head and blood immediately gushed out.
"You---you actually hit people?" Fang Ming pushed away an urban management officer angrily. He wanted to protect his property, which was the only valuable thing in his home.
"What's wrong with beating you? You guys refuse to change despite repeated admonitions, so you should be beaten!" Two more police batons were struck, and Fang Ming's body immediately swelled with two red marks, which were very hot.
"I---I'll fight with you!" Fang Ming didn't know where he got the strength. He just felt the anger suddenly rushing from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. He grabbed the baton and stabbed an urban management officer fiercely!
The stick hit the urban management officer's waist, and he slowly fell down - "You little bastard, you dare to hit someone, take him down!" The leading urban management officer shouted loudly, and several other urban management officers rushed forward. Fang Ming was finally caught.
Pinned to the ground!
"Pa!" The urban management team leader stepped on Fang Ming's face, and Fang Ming's face was immediately squeezed and deformed.
"Captain Wang, what should we do with these two people?" a team member asked for instructions.
The person in charge, named Captain Wang, thought for a while and said: "He injured one of our people. This must be dealt with. I think he should be sent to the Public Security Bureau first----"
The urban management took the mother and son to the car. Lin Guifang stroked Fang Ming's cheek and said, "My child, does it still hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt!" Fang Ming said with a grin. Seeing that his mother's wound was still bleeding, he tore off his shirt with a "swish" sound and wrapped it around his mother. Ten minutes later, mother and son were taken to the police.
Bureau.
As soon as we got off the car, a short and fat police officer came up to us with a smile on his face: "Captain Wang, are you coming in person? Just make a phone call for such a small matter!"
"Director Li, there is nothing we can do. Today's law enforcement is so difficult!" Captain Wang sighed, and then said viciously: "This man injured our team members, Director Li, I can only leave it to you to deal with it."
, I hope our brother units will support our work!”
"They are all brother units, easy to talk about, easy to talk about! What's more, this time Mingxi County will participate in the evaluation of sanitary cities. We will deal with these black sheep that endanger the city's appearance impartially!" Director Li said with a smile.
After sending Captain Wang and his party away, Director Li's face suddenly darkened: "Take them to the interrogation room and interrogate them properly!"
After all, Fang Ming was only a fifteen-year-old boy. His heart was pounding and his nervous palms were all sweaty. He had just entered high school and entered the police station. If there was a note on the file, this book would still be
Can you read it successfully?
Fang Ming raised his head and glanced at his mother. Her mother's expression remained calm from beginning to end. She looked at Director Li and said lightly: "Can I make a call?"
"During the interrogation, no contact with the outside world is allowed!" Director Li said with a dark face.
Lin Guifang raised her head, her eyes were like sharp swords, extremely majestic. At this moment, she seemed not to be a small vendor wandering the streets, but a powerful woman: "I just want to tell my family, is this also true?"
No? Which public security regulations stipulate that you cannot talk to the outside world?"
Director Li was stunned, and his tone softened: "Okay, you go ahead and fight!"
Does a small street vendor have any background? Director Li lit up a cigarette and smoked it, looking suspicious.
Lin Guifang took a long breath, and she suddenly hesitated. This subtle movement was caught by Director Li.
"Hmph!" Director Li said disdainfully: "Stop pretending, if you want to fight, fight quickly!"
Lin Guifang stretched out her finger and pressed a series of numbers quickly. Fang Ming wondered, her father passed away very early, and she and her mother were the only two people at home. Who was she going to call? Could this be the right time?
Who else can save his mother and son?
After the call was connected, Lin Guifang said tremblingly: "It's me --- I'm at the Mingxi Police Station!"
After hanging up the phone, Director Li waved his hand and two policemen brought the mother and son into the interrogation room and explained the issues thoroughly——
