The three major forces worked together to track down, but the four mysterious people seemed to be short-lived and disappeared after the assassination.
In the blink of an eye, at the end of November, Tianbao celebrated his sixth birthday, and the season entered midwinter.
The temperature dropped quickly, and I already needed to put on a thin jacket in the morning.
After the children finished their morning classes, they went home, filled a bowl of steaming food in the kitchen, squatted towards the door of the courtyard, and chatted while basking in the sun.
"When was the last time we went to the inner city? I almost forgot. The New Year will be celebrated in one month. Then we call Grandpa Du and go to the city to watch the fun together?" Su Wu's mouth was full. Slurred speech.
Today, my aunt made a big pot of bacon and cabbage. The smell is so delicious that it makes people salivate.
Bai Yu now refuses to go home at noon. He stays at Xiao Su's house every day to eat. In more than a month after returning from Changjing, he has developed a double chin.
While chewing bacon, he said, "I'm afraid it won't work. The situation outside is tense and everything is a little uneven. It's best not to run out yet."
The boys immediately moved their heads towards him, "You haven't found out yet? Even Uncle Feng has no clues?"
Tianbao looked over with a piece of bacon in his mouth. He was so focused that his mouth stopped moving.
"My godfather said that even he couldn't get the information, it must be forces outside the coverage of his intelligence network. He has already started to investigate there, but the scope is not small, and it won't be there so quickly. Echo." Bai Yu spoke in more detail this time, "A fox will always show its tail, and there is no rush. Before that, we had better be cautious. The other party suddenly came out to kill us. The unlucky one this time was If you have a big beard, you may not be the unlucky one next time.”
A few people stood above the backyard wall, and suddenly a head appeared with a beard on his face. He looked down at the bowls in the hands of several children and raised his voice, "Where is my rice? Bacon and cabbage! Who wants to eat stewed tofu, a little flavor?" None!"
This was obviously not said to the children, but to a woman who was eating in a kitchen.
The children looked from bottom to top, "..."
Can you be normal with your beard?
Why are you hungry?
You weren't like this before.
The bearded man turned a blind eye to the children's suspicious looks, and just stared at the appetizing meat in their bowls, greedy.
He endured it all morning, eating stewed tofu with a light and tasteless soup, smelling the aroma of bacon coming from the yard next door, and his stomach growled as he ate.
As the leader of a gang, he has never grieved his stomach since he had money in his pocket. Even when he went on a long trip, the kitchen on the ship was always equipped with good ingredients.
Now I am resting in Beishan to recuperate! The wound is almost healed, why don't you give him something delicious?
He paid for the food!
In the kitchen next door, a small figure flashed out. An old man in a bird's nest was holding a large porcelain bowl filled with bacon. He walked to the foot of the wall in 28 steps and ate heartily under the gaze of the bearded man. "Hey, Look at your impatient temper, why won’t you eat meat? I just won’t give you food. Jie Jie Jie Jie! If you want to eat well and go back to your own doghouse, who will dare to disobey you? Don’t you think so? ?”
The bearded man gritted his teeth and sneered, "There is a saying that it is easier to invite gods than to send them away, so I won't leave, hum!"
"What's wrong with you? Why is your brain so incapable of remembering things? You are a fish, ah, a fish."
After the old man finished speaking, a handful of dirt fell on the wall. If he hadn't been able to dodge quickly, a bowl of bacon would have been destroyed.
The old man immediately jumped to his feet and cursed a string of quintessential words.
Unfortunately, the big beard on the wall has disappeared.
In the kitchen at the back, Su Xiuer poked her head out and took a look. She had a terrible headache.
"Xiu'er, I see that the bearded man is really annoyed. Why don't you give him something tasty to eat?" He Daxiang was worried for her.
What kind of good-natured person can be the leader of Pier 12? Just for the things he did, there were not even 10,000 but 8,000 people outside who criticized him.
It was one thing that the bearded man had helped, but if Xiu'er really pissed people off, it was hard to tell what he could do.
If there wasn't a sweet baby sitting at home, she dared to bet on her knees that the bearded man would rush in and grab the food.
Liu Yuelan also said worriedly, "How about... make him some meat?"
Su Xiuer was helpless, "I didn't mean not to give him food. Du Lao said that people with serious injuries can only eat light and easy-to-swallow food for at least three months. I even read the medical book given by Du Lao in private, and it was written in this way. The beard's wound has just healed, and it's not certain whether the intestines in his stomach can be used normally..."
Liu Yuelan, He Daxiang, "..." suddenly couldn't eat.
Old Man Su and Old Lady Su both had twitching mouths, barely able to keep their expressions as normal.
Su Da said, "Xiu'er, you are so brave now!"
Su Er, "You dare to sew someone's intestines!"
The old man and the old woman each gave them a pot sticker.
Fortunately, they rushed there a little late, or they would not be able to eat for a long time!
The bearded man was lying on the simple wooden bed in the main room. When he was in a bad mood, the wooden board was bone-shattering, and he couldn't sleep well from tossing and turning.
Until the sun is about to set, another burst of meat smells.
Bearded man, "Fuck!"
I can't get enough to eat, but I don't dare to grab anything, and I still have to wait for the old man to squeeze me out. I can't live this life!
He turned over and sat up with a fierce look in his eyes. When he heard the movement outside the door, he raised his eyes. The fierce look in his eyes scared the little girl who was about to come in and trembled.
Their eyes met, the bearded man's gaze fell on the big bowl held in the woman's hand, showing no interest at all, "Tofu, green vegetables, salty porridge and vegetarian noodles, take it back, don't eat it!"
Su Xiuer sighed silently, lowered her eyes and walked to his side to put down the bowl. The bowl contained a large bowl of rice, covered with soft steamed belly meat, and hung with a layer of clear soup, which was light but fragrant.
"I asked Mr. Du, if you can eat some stewed belly meat. My father asked Bai Yu to bring this specially from the inner city. You can eat it first. When the injury is healed, you can eat whatever you want. Someone will take care of it." She said lightly, "Don't blame Du Lao, he is just being unforgiving, and it is really for your own good to stop you from eating at will."
The bearded man looked down at the bowl of food, his eyes dim and dancing, silent.
The lingering sunlight outside the house glows purple and red, and the main room is also dyed with a warm color. The heat of the food can be seen and the aroma can be smelled.
The woman turned to leave.
The bearded man paused, took out a badge from his waist and threw it over, deliberately watching the woman catch it in a hurry.
"I'll go back after this meal." He said, raising his long eyes to face the warm light. The darkness was deep, and the gloom accumulated over the years was still in his eyes, which seemed to be surging. "Take this waist badge. From now on, you can walk around the outer city as you like, and the people at Pier 12 won’t make things difficult for you. It’s like treating me as a favor to someone else.”
Su Xiuer, "..."
She returned the badge and said, "I am a woman. Apart from staying in Tubei Village, I rarely go outside. I don't need this thing. You can take it back."
"Don't push and push me, are you bothered? Once I give out the things, you just take them. It's best if you use them and don't use them. I just don't want to owe you any favors. Don't take it too seriously, I The face you give is just this much, if you don’t want more, don’t be too greedy.”
Su Xiuer was so angry that she turned around and left.
The bearded man immediately picked up the bowl and ate in large chunks.
