He turned around and walked back.
Zhou Zedong is a person who knows his own abilities quite well. He will not be impulsive or do anything that is not good for him.
There is this sentence in "The Art of War" he read recently: Thirty-six strategies are the best.
Sometimes you have to learn to avoid disasters and protect yourself, to avoid a head-on collision with the enemy, which may cause you to lose more than you gain.
Seeing that he was back, Brother Chen and others who were enjoying the piggy bank were a little surprised.
"Why are you back again?"
Zhou Zedong glanced at a few people. They had not known each other for a long time, and he had no intention of letting these people fight for him.
After this period of time, he also saw that these three people were living a hard life.
This alley is very old, with rotten iron houses. Many people working on construction sites live here, and the surrounding area is also very messy.
No wonder Li Youcai said this was a slum just now.
"Is there any other way out?" Zhou Zedong asked.
It seems that he can't come here these days.
Several people were stunned for a moment and heard footsteps outside.
His expression changed.
Suddenly I seemed to understand something.
"No, you are so young, why do you have so many enemies?" Brother Chen had a complicated expression.
He knew the people who just walked past, they were junior high school students from No. 2 Middle School not far away.
Zhou Zedong is still a primary school student, why did he provoke a junior high school student?
Zhou Zedong glanced at him and his tone was quite calm, as if he was not the one who was about to be blocked.
"Because I'm from the countryside."
That's right, Li Youcai's reason for targeting him was simply because he came from the countryside.
People from rural areas should keep a low profile and have no sense of presence.
But he stole the show.
Zhou Zedong is not a person who doesn't understand anything, so he naturally understands why the other party dislikes him.
"What?" Brother Chen and others frowned, but they soon remembered that they heard the teacher calling him a country bumpkin and uneducated in the alley that day, and their expressions became complicated again.
Although they are not from the countryside, they live in this city, but they are trampled and laughed at by countless people.
In the eyes of these city dwellers, they are maggots and scum, and even looking at them is like dirtying their eyes.
They didn't understand it at first and felt uncomfortable, but now they are immune.
Hearing Zhou Zedong say this, I couldn't help but feel a little empathetic.
Yes, this city is like this. It seems beautiful and prosperous, but in fact, no one knows the darkness behind it.
Although he had known Zhou Zedong for a short time, he helped them in the end.
The three of them looked at each other.
After wandering around the alley for two times and not seeing many houses, Li Youcai's cousin became a little impatient: "Cousin Youcai, are you sure this is the place? It doesn't even feel like a place where people live."
My cousin's school is famously affordable only for the rich. Since you can afford to attend a school like that, you shouldn't live in a place like this.
"Impossible, I saw that country bumpkin coming with my own eyes!" Li Youcai was also a little confused. He had seen Zhou Zedong coming here every day in the past few days, and he followed him today. It was absolutely correct.
How come I can't find anyone?
Just when he was wondering if he had been tricked by Zhou Zedong, he heard a familiar voice behind him, "Are you looking for me?"
Li Youcai turned back sharply.
They saw Zhou Zedong standing behind them at some point.
He was carrying a schoolbag on one shoulder and a book in his hand.
He usually acted like this, so Xiang'er was so fascinated that he ignored him.
Li Youcai's face turned ugly for a moment, and he pointed at him and said, "Cousin, that's him!"
His cousin was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect the other party to come out on his own.
He immediately smiled and said: "Okay, I will help you teach him a lesson!"
"Hey! I heard that you stole women from my cousin, right?"
Zhou Zedong frowned: "What do you mean?"
Why are he and Li Youcai robbing women?
Are there women in their class?
This involves some knowledge scope that Zhou Zedong does not understand.
For a moment, he looked confused.
"You're still pretending. You're so good at pretending at a young age. Why don't I teach you a lesson!"
"Who are you trying to teach a lesson to?"
The three people represented by Brother Chen came out of the alley behind Zhou Zedong. He had a crumpled cigarette in his mouth, but he didn't light it. He looked very imposing.
After all, they were from mixed society. The few people in front of them were just the more arrogant people in the school. I didn't expect there to be gangsters, so their expressions changed at this moment.
Because he was only dealing with a ten-year-old Zhou Zedong, Li Youcai only called his cousin and friends.
Now the three of them were standing in front of Brother Chen and others, and the people blocked seemed to have become them.
Li Youcai's proud face changed instantly.
Subconsciously he took two steps back.
His cousin's expression also changed.
He only agreed to come and help in order to please this cousin.
Who would have thought there would be gangsters here?
And seeing that the other party is still holding the guy in his hand, this is really no joke.
He usually relies on his family's money to bully some people he doesn't like in school.
But if you really encounter someone who doesn't want your life in society, you can only beg for mercy.
The school management in their school is not that strict, and there are also many promiscuous students.
He had seen too many fights, and there was nothing the street police could do about being hacked to death by those social people.
Suddenly, my cousin turned pale.
"Hey, hey, you're talented, you didn't tell me that this guy has friends."
Brother Chen and others stepped forward.
He backed up repeatedly and acted like a wise man who knows the current affairs. "It's none of my business. My cousin asked me to come."
Li Youcai's face turned green when he heard this.
Looking at Brother Chen, who was much taller than him, he swallowed and looked away in fear, only to meet Zhou Zedong's calm eyes.
He instantly felt weak in his legs.
That day he heard that Teacher Xu went to his grandma and said that Zhou Zedong was looking for someone to beat her. He also laughed at Teacher Xu for being stupid. How could a person like Zhou Zedong dare to find someone to beat her.
But now, Li Youcai knew that Teacher Xu was not lying.
He stammered: "You, what do you want to do? Let me tell you, my grandma is the director of the school. If you dare to attack me, I will send you all to jail!"
"And you, Zhou Zedong, doesn't your mother teach in school? If you dare to bully me, I will ask my grandma to tell your family to pack up and get out!"
Before he finished speaking, Brother Chen grabbed the short hair on his head with one hand. Li Youcai grimaced in pain.
Brother Chen also has a bad temper and hates being threatened the most.
This idiot really stepped on his bad points in every sentence.
Although he wanted to beat him, he still turned to look at Zhou Zedong: "Brother Dong, what are you doing?"
"Don't worry, we are on a grasshopper's rope now. If he dares to bully you, I will definitely help you beat him up. You don't have to be afraid."
He felt that although Zhou Zedong was bold, he probably wouldn't dare to fight, otherwise he wouldn't have let them help him last time.
"It's a grasshopper on a rope." Zhou Zedong corrected him and then looked at Li Youcai.
Just when Brother Chen thought he couldn't bear it, he heard him say: "How about breaking his hand?"
Brother Chen: "..."
Fatty & Xiangzi: "..."
Li Youcai: "!"
The air fell into a deathly silence, and Zhou Zedong's voice still had a hint of childlike innocence, "Break off his fingers one by one, so that he can no longer write, and he should not be able to grab other people's copybooks." Come on..."
Before Brother Chen could react, he smelled the smell of urine.
He lowered his head and saw that Li Youcai was so frightened that he peed.
He immediately dropped his hand in disgust. Although he also felt that Zhou Zedong said such cruel words with a calm face, it was terrifying, but this guy was too timid and was actually scared to death.
Li Youcai was shaking like a sieve, "You, you dare, I, I will tell my grandma that you, you are dead."
Zhou Zedong stepped forward, stepped on his hand, bent down and said: "If you want to file a complaint, go ahead, so that everyone knows how our study committee member was so scared that he peed his pants. Chu Xiang'er must think you are disgusting , no one in the class will want to sit with you in the future."
"I will transfer schools when I get older, but you will be laughed at by the whole school. How pitiful."
Li Youcai's face instantly twisted.
Just thinking about such a scene made him want to dig a hole in the ground and crawl in.
Zhou Zedong sneered, turned and left.
Brother Chen and others were stunned, "Then, do we still want to break his hand?"
Zhou Zedong: "...It's up to you." He just tried to scare Li Youcai, but why did he take it seriously?
These people are indeed too stupid.
Zhou Zedong went home in a hurry.
But even so, it still took a lot of time.
Seeing Si Nian frowning, he was immediately frightened.
He squeezed his school bag tightly.
Si Nian has been paying more attention to Zhou Zedong recently and is worried that he will be bullied.
Although the matter with Teacher Xu has passed, I don’t dare to blatantly target him now.
But still be careful.
So she told the two children to come back with Jiang Jiu after class.
But this child has not come back with his younger brother and Jiang Jiu recently.
It's later every day.
Si Nian thought about it and didn't waste any time and didn't care.
But it took so long for me to come back today.
Si Nian looked at him for a long time.
Without speaking or questioning, he turned around and returned to the house.
Zhou Zedong turned pale and hurriedly followed him.
He then promised Si Nian that he should go home early and not stay outside.
My mother has to go to class every day and brings her sister back early to cook for them.
And now that she is not far from home, she is still causing trouble for her.
Zhou Zedong felt guilty.
The second child was lying on the table doing homework. Although a study room was provided for them, he always liked to go to a place where Sinian could see him and write.
Biting the end of the pen, he looked absent-minded.
He was quite surprised to see his brother come back so late today.
"Brother, why did you come back?"
Zhou Zedong originally wanted to lie about cleaning himself.
But he knew that Si Nian was a teacher in school, and when he asked the teacher, he knew that he must have lied.
He didn't dare.
Mom hates people lying the most.
He ignored his curious brother and went upstairs to put his schoolbag.
As soon as he came downstairs, Si Nian said, "Let's eat."
Zhou Zedong felt even more uneasy. He would rather Si Nian scolded him, hit him, and questioned him than have her behave like this.
"Mom." He walked over.
Si Nian didn't look at him and hummed.
Zhou Zedong pursed his lips and said, "Mom, are you angry?"
Si Nian put the rice in front of him, "Then tell me why mom is angry."
Zhou Zedong lowered his head and said under the curious eyes of his younger brothers and sisters, "Because I came back late and didn't listen to my mother's words."
Si Nian looked at him for a while, "Is that it?"
Si Nian was kind to them and never blamed them. Even if he did something wrong, he would comfort them patiently.
I was afraid that I would hurt the fragile hearts of the two children because of my own blame.
But she's not used to everything.
She didn't want to spoil her two children because of her patience.
She has a bottom line.
You can make them happy, but not beyond your own bottom line.
The little eldest is only ten years old, although they have been here for a while.
But the city is also very dangerous, especially since Zhou Yueshen is not at home yet, and Si Nian is even more worried about what will happen to the children.
In the past, when he was in the countryside, he would often go home hand in hand with his younger brother.
But now that he is in the city, perhaps it is because after his brother has a good friend in Jiang Jiu, he doesn't care much about it.
She didn't know if it was because she was exposed to new people and environments, but she felt that the child had grown up a lot.
My mood also changed.
She still felt a little strange about the police incident last time.
The child, who was usually more obedient than the little boy, now repeatedly disobeyed me and came back early.
This made Si Nian feel uneasy.
Zhou Zedong pursed his lips and said, "Mom, I was wrong. I did something without telling you."
Si Nian was stunned for a moment.
The little boy widened his eyes curiously.
"Brother, what have you done? Are you secretly studying behind my back again?"
Zhou Zedong ignored his stupid brother and continued, "I made a few friends."
"Isn't this a good thing?" Si Nian was even more surprised.
The probability of Zhou Zedong making friends is lower than the probability of him killing people, right?
She was also surprised that Zhou Zedong didn't have many friends in the novel.
"They are gangsters." Zhou Zedong spat out another explosive sentence.
Si Nian was stunned.
Zhou Zedong told her how he knew Brother Chen and others, and also told her that he had been late coming back these days because he was doing business with Brother Chen.
After saying that, he took out the time allocated to him and put it on the table.
A whole thirty bucks.
"This is the money we got from selling the egg pancakes. Mom, I'll give it to you. Don't be angry." After he finished speaking, he looked at Si Nian cautiously.
Si Nian sat there and didn't come back to his senses for a while.
Although thirty yuan is not much to her.
But you know, a teacher in rural areas now only earns thirty yuan a month.
But it only took him a week to earn it, and it was still money shared equally among several people.
Si Nian suddenly thought of the little boys selling cakes in front of the cinema that day.
It can't be them.
Although she doesn't think Zhou Zedong is the kind of person who feels pity for others when they see them picking up trash.
But he shouldn't lie to himself.
It took Si Nian a long time to digest the content before he said, "Xiaodong, you are right to want to do business."
"You just shouldn't hide this from your family, is it because we are not worthy of your trust?" She looked serious.
Zhou Zedong panicked and hurriedly stood up and said: "Mom, no..."
Si Nian shook his head: "It's good that you want to make money at such a young age. Your mother is also happy that you can make money. This proves that you are a smart and capable child."
Zhou Zedong's eyes turned red.
"But that's not what you think. You've even hidden it from us, so what else is worthy of your trust?"
"Maybe I'm not doing a good job as a mother. After all, I'm not your biological mother."
Zhou Zedong burst into tears: "I'm sorry, Mom, I was wrong, please don't be angry..."
He ran to Si Nian and cried loudly: "I shouldn't have let Brother Chen hit Teacher Xu without telling you. I came back late today because some classmates blocked me, but I didn't hit him. Don't be angry. What will happen to me in the future?" I told you..."
Si Nian:?
Good guy!
