“Maybe I can’t compete with heaven and earth,
Maybe I will cry when I lower my head,
Maybe June Snow will fly into my heart..."
Qin Aiguo drove his beloved agricultural tricycle, pulling Brick, and ran on the small road in Yingcheng while looking left and right.
He was very tired and had not slept well for who knows how many days.
There was singing coming from the record player in his pocket, and every word of the lyrics expressed the hardships in his heart, so he liked it very much.
He had used the record player for many years and was reluctant to throw it away because it was bought as a tribute to his son with his first month's salary at work.
Thinking of his son, Qin's patriotic spirit couldn't help but perk up.
Qin Shuo was his pride. After graduating from college, he stayed in Eagle City and worked as a civil servant. Who wouldn't praise him when he met him?
The child's mother left early, and it was not easy for him to raise Qin Shuo all by himself!
“…There will be a Berlin Wall that cannot be broken out of,
Be neighbors with suffering all your life..."
The lyrics on the record player were like sharp thorns piercing Qin Aiguo's heart.
Yes, it is really not easy. He has been a neighbor with suffering all his life. Qin Aiguo has had a rough life. After the child's mother left, he was both a father and a mother. When he was young, he wanted to find a stepmother for his child, but the child did not agree.
Now that we are all old, who needs it?
While I still have some energy, I can buy more bricks and save some money for my son. After all, my son has just married a daughter-in-law in Yingcheng and needs money to buy a house!
"I found you,"
Just as he thought of this, a man in uniform rushed out from a corner and shouted to Qin Aiguo, "I have been squatting here for several days..."
Qin Aiguo's expression changed drastically. If he was caught, his work for the past two months would have been in vain.
He made a quick decision, turned the car around and headed towards the road.
At this time, I don't know what happened, but the sky in Yingcheng suddenly became overcast and the temperature became cold.
"Hell live~"
“Why is it snowing??”
Qin Aiguo felt that there were snowflakes falling from the sky. He muttered twice, stepped on the accelerator and rushed towards the traffic light.
He had to rush over before the red light turned on, so that the official on an electric bicycle could not catch up with him.
There is an overpass above the traffic light intersection, and an overloaded truck is climbing up with difficulty.
On the overpass, cracks appeared like grinning faces...
Qin Aiguo’s record player is still singing:
"...Who is alive in the world?
It’s not like purgatory~”
"Boom~"
The overpass fell, and a stream of air pushed Qin Aiguo out.
"Plop~~"
Qin Aiguo rolled on the ground a few times, his vision went dark, and he fainted.
After an unknown amount of time, Qin Aiguo woke up, his mind a mess.
What's wrong?
what happened?
bridge?
The bridge collapsed?
My little three wheel!
Qin Aiguo suddenly remembered, Brick, he was still holding Brick!
He stood up in a hurry and rushed towards the collapsed bridge, shouting: "My car, my bricks..."
Unfortunately, the overpass has been cordoned off and police detectives are blocking the flow of people.
Qin Aiguo was afraid of seeing people in uniform, so he stopped hesitantly.
There was a small three-wheeled car under the bridge, and the driver's seat was empty. Qin Aiguo listened carefully, and there was faint singing:
"If I don't cry, I don't have it anymore,
Dignity can be given up,
Those dreams one day~"
The record player my son bought is of great quality.
Damn it, look, my son is awesome!
Qin Aiguo thought for a moment, then turned around and left.
Go back quickly, don't let your son worry.
However, the miscellaneous tricycle is gone, and the money still has to be paid, and the daughter-in-law has to complain again.
It's embarrassing for my son.
No, we can't let them know.
Qin Aiguo thought and waved to the roadside: "Taxi..."
…
Qili Bridge is not far from Lu Town.
However, Qinzhai Valley is in the direction of Qili Bridge and close to Shiren Mountain. There is a section of mountain road that cannot be passed by cars, so Qinzhai Valley is very poor.
When Shi Lei arrived, it was already noon and there was no one in Qinzhai Valley.
Qin Aiguo lives in the west of the village, in the shade, with some old trees nearby. Even at noon, it still feels a bit eerie.
Walking through the shade of the trees, there are thick leaves under the trees. When you step on them, some mud will emerge from time to time.
Qin Ai's country looks relatively shabby, with linoleum covering the walls and dripping red water.
Liu Haifeng was already frightened. Looking at the cold surroundings, he couldn't help but shrink his neck.
Just as he was about to speak, "chirp~" there was a scream from beneath his feet.
Liu Haifeng jumped up in fright and shouted: "Ghost~"
"Zi Liu~"
At Liu Haifeng's feet, a big mouse escaped in a flash.
Shi Lei ignored Liu Haifeng. He sniffed and seemed to smell a foul smell.
Liu Haifeng was a little embarrassed and hurriedly fanned it with his hands and said: "Why is it so smelly? The pigs are not cleaned well. No wonder there are rats in broad daylight!"
"Qin Shuo~"
"You are so worthless!"
"I am blind by marrying you. Your father has been treated like this, why don't you go find someone else?"
"Your second uncle was beaten and you didn't even dare to fart. Are you still a human being?"
"Do you still have the nerve to say that you are an official from Eagle City?"
The sharp noise of women came from Qin Ai's country.
"Your house stinks so much, how dare you let me come back?"
"Why do you want me to come back? To serve your father??"
"I'm telling you, don't even think about it, I haven't even cooked at home..."
Shi Lei looked at Liu Haifeng, and the two of them gloated that they had found the right person.
Listening to someone knocking on the door, the woman's voice stopped.
A thin young man with glasses opened the door, looked at Shi Lei and Liu Haifeng and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
"We are the Red Space Design Studio..."
Before Liu Haifeng could finish speaking, a short, fat woman with dark skin and pockmarks on her face jumped out from behind the young man and whispered, "What? Red Space Design Office?"
"Isn't it the decoration company that made my father-in-law sick?"
"What am I telling you? You have to pay compensation. Our family is native to Eagle City. If we don't come up with half a million yuan this time, we won't be able to settle the matter..."
…
Shi Lei ignored the woman's rudeness and didn't notice Qin Shuo's face turning red. He hurriedly looked at the small courtyard, which was only about twenty square meters.
The courtyard has a common appearance in the countryside, but the layout of the entire courtyard looks eerie, especially to the west of the courtyard, a locust tree with a crooked neck is swaying in the wind, making an extremely scary sound.
