009/Qiliu
Yingzhou thought to himself that people are indeed a little different.
For example, he was restless and stiff because of this; but what Yuan Wen was thinking was that it was really fun.
Ying Zhou is not fearless of death, but his calmness allows him to survive with a greater probability.
He reached the corner of the stairs.
A pig stood at the door, waving to him cheerfully, its face glowing with excitement.
What a smelly pig.
Ying Zhou frowned slightly, his expression showing undisguised disgust.
Wang Wenshan looked even more excited, and the whole pig's eyes were almost shining.
He raced against time to lick Yingzhou's face with his eyes. After a while, he realized that there was someone next to him.
"Xiaozhou, what is this?"
Yingzhou: "Classmate."
He cast a questioning look at Yuan Wenxin.
Yuan Wenxin rubbed her ring finger with her thumb, shook her head and said, "It's not it."
The bug inside him showed no reaction.
So Yingzhou turned around and left without saying a polite word.
Behind him, Wang Wenshan sounded anxious: "Xiaozhou, didn't you say you were coming as a guest? Do you think it's too little - will uncle give you five hundred lines this month?!"
Wang Wenshan's last words made Yuan Wenxin couldn't help but turn around and glance at him.
They look for pigs in the city. No real pigs were found, but there is no shortage of animals here.
Yuan Wenxin put his hands in his coat pocket, curled his lips slightly, and walked back to Yingzhou's house. The door was open and the sound of water running came from the bathroom.
Yuan Wenxin walked over and saw that Yingzhou was washing his hands with cold water. Even if he hasn't touched anything dirty before.
Yingzhou has fair skin. Although he has helped his mother with housework since he was a child, he does not have to cut grass and feed cows like children in the mountains. There are no obvious calluses on his hands. He carefully cleaned his knuckles and between his fingers, and the tips of his fingers were rubbed a layer of pink.
Yuan Wenxin couldn't explain what kind of emotion he was feeling. It was very complicated and unfamiliar.
Later he realized that this emotion was called pity. A little more heartache than pity.
Yuan Wenxin asked: "You obviously don't like it, why did you agree?"
Yingzhou turned off the faucet and replied expressionlessly: "First, I'm short of money; second, touching someone twice can't kill someone; third, Wang Wenshan is in very poor health and can't really beat me, so I can guarantee that I Safety. In the end, even if something happens, I deserve it. After all, I just want to earn this money instead of dropping out of school to serve the dishes. Are you satisfied with this answer? Does it satisfy your need to judge ugliness and your sense of superiority? "
Yuan Wenxin's expression was stunned: "That's not what I meant... Isn't the scholarship of Heying Middle School quite high?"
Yingzhou covered his face with a wet veil and didn't take it off for a long time: "Do you think I wouldn't think of such a thing?"
His voice was calm, but his body was shaking slightly with anger. The anger almost condensed into a solid substance and got stuck in Yingzhou's throat.
When I signed the agreement, I kept Xu Wenling's bank card. Because Yingzhou didn’t have an ID card, he couldn’t apply for a bank card.
To apply for an ID card, you need a household registration book, and the household registration book is with Li Yang.
It wasn't until there was a formal reason to register for the college entrance examination that Yingzhou had his own ID card. He took advantage of a lunch break to walk out of school and went to the bank at the door to apply for his first bank card. He also asked his head teacher and the leader of the school's finance department to change the contract and card number.
The head teacher was indeed very kind to him, and he did all this without telling Xu Wenling.
Unfortunately, there is only one semester of scholarship available between the college entrance examination registration and the college entrance examination.
Yuan Wenxin's expression changed several times, and finally she looked away and lowered her head in embarrassment: "I'm sorry."
His hands hanging by his sides were quietly clenched into fists.
The information provided by the Ability Bureau is not detailed to this extent.
It was only at this time that Yuan Wenxin realized that what he was facing was not a story, a paper document, something to talk about after dinner, or some invincible monster; rather, he was facing a living person, whose body could be injured and had a temper. And a soul that will suffer.
Yingzhou waited until he calmed down before letting go of the towel covering his face and hanging it on the shelf again.
"It's okay. Thank you for the hospital."
According to Yingzhou's understanding, when his stepfather goes to buy cigarettes, he usually goes to the mahjong parlor next door to play cards.
It's not a serious community mahjong parlor, but a place similar to an underground casino. The entrance is ajar with a rolling shutter door. Next door is a hair salon with a pink light on the door, and the door screen is also pink. Girls in short shorts would stand at the door and smile at people. When encountering a young boy running away in a hurry, his smile becomes extraordinarily unrestrained.
From time to time, gamblers come here to choose a hair salon lady to wash their hair after winning money. Spend generously.
If you hadn't been shot for selling 50 grams of drugs, more outrageous stories would have happened here.
When my stepfather comes back depends on my luck that day.
Today, Li Yang's luck was obviously not very good. Yingzhou didn't wait long. At four o'clock in the afternoon, his stepfather came home wearing slippers and cursing.
Before leaving, Li Yang specifically asked where Yingzhou had gone. Xu Wenling murmured vaguely and answered that she was going to school.
Therefore, when he saw Yingzhou at home, Li Yang was obviously stunned for a moment.
"Why didn't you go to class?"
Today was a working day, and he still hadn't realized why Yingzhou didn't go to school.
From Yingzhou's perspective, it was a fat pink and white pig, standing at the door and grunting.
The stepfather had seen shadows before. Ying Zhou was not polite to him. The black shadow spread like a sea snake, accurately jumping up from the ground and wrapping around Li Yang's ankles.
Shadow dragged Li Yang over unceremoniously, screaming like a pig being killed.
Although the neighbors were a little curious as to why the screams coming from 402 were so different, due to Li Yang's many years of hard work here, no one stood up to mind his own business.
The human-pig expression was full of horror: "Hmph--! Hmm!"
Yingzhou raised his foot, stepped on his head, and pressed it hard to the ground. There was no emotion in his tone, only a chill: "Didn't I say, don't make any noise at home?"
The human pig's face was pressed against the cold tiles. This supernatural power made him feel dazed and frightened.
There are still bloodstains left in the cracks of the bricks, which have accumulated over the years and cannot be cleaned away. I don't know whose it is, but it's definitely not his.
But not necessarily after that.
Li Yang was trembling at this moment.
Yingzhou turned around and asked, "What did he say?"
Yuan Wenxin was quite surprised: "Can't you hear?"
Yingzhou: "You can't hear it. You can hear it from a distance. But when you get closer, it's just pig noises."
Yuan Wenxin: "He asked why you didn't go to school and why you brought some unscrupulous people to your home.
"Then you dragged him over and he said he was going to call the police."
"Call the police?" The tone of Yingzhou's voice rose slightly, with an innocent cruelty in his tone. "Aren't you going to send me to a mental hospital? Why are you calling the police?"
On the ground, black lines slowly emerged from the huge shadow and wrapped tightly around Li Yang's body.
Yingzhou felt very clearly that as long as he thought about it, this nightmare that had troubled him for more than ten years would be divided into pieces of pork by thin lines and disappear forever in front of him.
The panic in Li Yang's eyes became more and more obvious. He wanted to yell, to call for help, but a black shadow filled his mouth.
"Why do you think I don't kill you? I can't?" Yingzhou's soles crushed Li Yang's fat pig face, and a trace of anger flashed between his eyebrows. "It's because the order has not collapsed yet. Thank you for the law's protection of you." Beast. It's not worth spending the rest of my life for a piece of trash like you. But remember, sooner or later, I will kill you."
Yingzhou bent down, grabbed his stepfather's hair, and lifted his head up. His pupils were obviously pink.
His eyes were also slightly red, which made Yingzhou look like he had just cried.
He whispered: "You have to be careful when sleeping, be careful when walking at night, and be careful when driving. After the college entrance examination, I will go to study abroad, but my shadow will accompany you. I will give you a chance, because you are me The husband chosen by mom. I don’t care what you think in your heart. On the outside, remember to play the role of a good husband and don’t let her hurt and fatigue for so many years go to waste. Don’t make me angry, okay?”
Sometimes, living in fear and shadow is more painful than death. But Li Yang obviously didn't have the courage to die.
"Go away." He released his grip on his stepfather's hair.
Li Yang almost crawled back to the bedroom. His limbs were weak, and the area where the shadow had strangled him was swollen, as if he had been severely whipped by a whip.
He didn't understand why the world had changed in just one day.
His cold and withdrawn stepson suddenly became so terrifying that he even possessed strange powers that could easily kill him.
But he still remembered that Yingzhou said that he didn't want to hear pigs braying.
Li Yang covered his mouth, not even daring to cry too loudly.
…
…
Yuan Wenxin watched a housework, and after thinking for a moment, he asked kindly: "I can send him to a mental hospital, where he will never come out, is that necessary?"
"I don't know," Yingzhou closed his eyes and rubbed his eyebrows, "The way people get along with each other is the result of mutual choices. My mother will always be attracted to scum unless she learns to grow up. Li Yang is now Terrified, under the threat of death, maybe I can give her the life she wants... What does she want, love?"
Ying Zhou had a mocking look on his face.
Before, Yuan Wenxin asked him if he hated Xu Wenling.
The answer is no. Parents may not love their children, but it is impossible for children not to love their parents, especially a person like Yingzhou whose real father is dead.
This kind of complete love will be mixed with impurities as children grow up, but it must be there at the beginning of their lives.
It was Xu Wenling who failed his love.
Yingzhou no longer has the strength or courage to love her anymore.
He just hopes that his mother can live a good life where he can't see her.
Yingzhou wouldn't leave his shadow behind, he said it deliberately to scare Li Yang. According to Yuan Wenxin, the world is recovering strangely, and he needs Shadow more than Li Yang.
Yingzhou took the initiative to change the subject: "Is the farmer on him?"
This time, Yuan Wenxin still shook his head gently: "I'll tell you the truth. The bug in my body only moved once today."
Yingzhou's body stiffened for an instant, apparently realizing something, and his lips trembled slightly.
Yuan Wenxin avoided his eyes subconsciously: "While your mother was greeting me."
**
Xu Wenling stepped to the supermarket.
The cashier who was waiting for her to change her shift looked worried: "Didn't I tell you that I have to go to the hospital to see the elderly in the afternoon, so I asked you to come early!
"Really, you don't have a sense of time in anything you do. Do you also make customers wait like this when you check out?"
Xu Wenling pulled up the hair on the side of her face and combed her hair into a standard Taoist nun style. While changing clothes, he apologized: "I'm sorry, Sister Chen. There's a bit of a traffic jam on the road."
The new employee defended her: "Sister Chen, Sister Wenling doesn't go to work until four o'clock in the afternoon. I'm so kind to you, but you still say this to me."
The older employees were expressionless, as if they were used to it.
Xu Wenling turned around in a hurry: "No. I asked for it. Sister Chen's family is sick, so I am idle. We are all colleagues, and we should help each other."
The new employee choked and felt angry.
The old employee whispered: "Don't mind your own business! Some people just don't know what to do."
It’s not that everyone has incorrect views. On the contrary, there are a few aunts here who are very old-fashioned and warm-hearted.
Xu Wenling was extremely enthusiastic and gentle when she arrived. She often rushed to help others with work, and was the first to do the dirty and hard work.
Everyone had a good impression of her. But some people are diligent and some are lazy.
Many people who are cheating and cheating like to push their jobs to her. As a result, she had more and more things to do and became more and more tired.
She never seemed to know how to say no.
Some people defended her, but Xu Wenling said things like "it doesn't matter", "we are all colleagues", "don't hurt the friendship"... It seemed like they were asking for trouble. One time, she went to the manager, and the person who stood up for her was embarrassed.
Those who benefited from it secretly laughed at them for being stupid, and even if they were weak, they would not be able to suppress them.
Kindness is folly. Hell is other people.
This is the logic of some people.
Once it happens too often, other people won’t care about it anymore.
Sad for his misfortune, angry for his inability to fight. Just stay out of sight.
Xu Wenling bowed to Sister Chen and apologized repeatedly. It wasn't until the other party left, leaving only his back, that he slowly raised his head.
Her eyes had no focus.
In Xu Wenling's eyes, the other person's back looked arrogant, like a reed chicken.
In the eyes of many people, Xu Wenling's life was particularly pitiful and difficult.
Xu Wenling thought it might be a little bit. But this is normal.
It is normal for a husband to beat his wife, but her father often beats her mother. This is how everyone came here. When she died, her father burst into tears and said he was sorry to her; Li Yang would wake up sooner or later.
It is normal for a son to be disobedient. Ahua, who grew up in the same village as her, had children who could not make any money, were nibbling at home, and even beat her own mother. In contrast, Yingzhou had good grades and good looks, so what else could she be dissatisfied with. Of course, it would be nice if he could be more filial.
Being bullied in the workplace is normal. She is good-looking, but she has been bullied by boys in the same village since she was a child. The teacher said they were causing trouble because they liked her. She needs to learn to forgive them. Her mother also said, there are so many children, why do others bully you?
Of course she wants to forgive. She suffered so many grievances and tolerated everything just to wait for other people's conscience to find out and apologize to her in tears. Just like...her father treated her mother back then.
Go and please them.
You will get everything you want.
fantasy. It was her only outlet when she suffered unfair treatment.
Sister Chen screamed, some of the colleagues around her looked like rabbits, some looked like sheep, and some looked like wood wolves and hyenas.
Xu Wenling was immersed in her imagination and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
