Qing Kuang - Chapter 45
The smoke in the room was a bit stubborn. Xu Zhifan smoked occasionally, but today I can’t stand the smell of it.
He wanted to open the window, but there were people standing near the door and the window. Any move he made might cause an overreaction of a group of people who were emotional at this moment.
He can only endure.
In addition to him and his dad, there are five men in the house, Aunt Hu’s husband, Uncle Li, three uncle Li’s friends, and Aunt Hu’s brother-in-law.
Today ’s theme is not different from the theme for the past four months. Aunt Hu ’s whereabouts, delivery, Aunt Hu ca n’t be delivered, and Mom has to be surrendered. If you ca n’t, you have to take Aunt Hu ’s money away from home. The money deceived by relatives was paid back first.
“She went with your wife,” said Uncle Li, “if she didn’t say go with Xiaolin, I wouldn’t let her go at all!”
“But …” Dad frowned, his throat was dumb, and he couldn’t say anything useful.
“Uncle Li, you also said that if Aunt Hu wasn’t going with my mother, you wouldn’t agree,” Xu Zhifan interrupted Dad, “so you know, my mother is a reliable person.”
Uncle Li frowned and didn’t seem to want to agree with him, but couldn’t refute it again.
“My mother won’t hurt anyone, let alone …” Xu Zhifan’s words didn’t go on.
“So what?” The brother-in-law said, “Even if your mother can rely on it, it’s a fact that people haven’t heard anything! It’s a fact that they don’t have any information when they ask for money at home and relatives!”
“And the man went with your mother!” A friend of Uncle Li pointed to him, his voice was a little loud, “Now you can just say that you want to get rid of responsibility!”
“Uncle,” Xu Zhifan controlled his own tone. “Aunt Hu followed my mother, or my mother followed her. There is no conclusion yet …”
“What do you mean!” Uncle Li shouted. “What do you mean by saying this now! Do you mean my wife cheated your mother!”
“I don’t mean that,” Xu Zhifan said. “I mean it’s meaningless to say this time. Finding talent is the most important thing, and their safety is the most important concern.”
“You rarely tell me these useless things, why is it meaningless to go with whom?” Another friend said, “Just because you went with your mother, we will ask you to ask for money!”
“We’re looking for people,” Dad said, “I’ve got some money for you, and I don’t have that much money on hand now …”
“Say this every time! No one! Money can’t be recovered!” Uncle Li was a little excited, suddenly raised his hand, and slapped the TV set on the TV cabinet.
The TV was suddenly fanned for half a circle, and after shaking it, his face rushed down and clasped to the ground.
When he landed, Xu Zhifan stretched out his feet and cushioned it between the TV and the floor. The TV did not break.
When he pulled out his feet and lifted the TV, Uncle Li should not have vented, and angrily picked up a clay pot on a table and slammed it on the ground.
“I’ll make a statement!” Uncle Li shouted, “I don’t care what happens to your home! All I know is that my home is going to be ruined!”
Several men in the room suddenly raised their voices and scolded them.
The doorbell of the intercom suddenly rang, and there were people smashing the door outside.
Xu Zhifan only felt scalp numbness. Uncle Li visited his house several times, but today he was the most excited and probably endured. Although he knew that no one had a solution, he still had to force them to ask for a statement.
Can be considered a vent.
Xu Zhifan was just a little worried, and there was nothing waiting for him outside the door.
Grandma was on the first floor and she was scared.
Dad’s health is not particularly good. He usually doesn’t feel much, and he is easily tired when he is in a hurry.
When Xu Zhifan walked to the door, he felt that his steps were too slow to drag.
“Xu Zhifan!” After hearing the door, he heard the shout outside.
This sound made him stun, and quickly glanced at the screen of the doorbell.
There were a bunch of people standing outside. The closest ones were Huo Ran and Kou Chen’s faces, followed by Jiang Lei, Xu Chuan, Hu Yi and Wei Chaoren.
One left and one right are stretched and bent on both sides of the fisheye lens, like a pair of brackets, but my mother said before that your classmate ’s humorous face is the most photographed. It ’s very beautiful how to shoot. Really.
If his mother comes back, he can show his mother to watch the video, and Kou Chen’s face can still maintain the face value under the brackets.
The moment Xu Zhifan saw such a lens, he suddenly felt like a warm baby was placed in his eyes, the whole head was hot, and his nose was a little sour.
He opened the door.
Huo Ran slaps the door with his hand still in the air. When the door opened, he didn’t have time to see the situation inside. He grabbed Xu Zhifan’s arm and dragged him outside the door.
Then Kou Chen entered the room, accurately found father Xu, and said hello to him, “Uncle Xu.”
“Ah, okay.” Dad Xu looked at the group of people who came in, and responded with some bluntness.
“The air is not so good. Open the window. It’s bad for your health.” Xu Chuan squeezed between the two men, went to the window, and pushed the window open.
The cold air poured into the room at once, just like the stuffy pot opened the lid, and the heat and smoke quickly dissipated to the windows and doorways.
The people in the room seemed to be awakened by the cool air, but they didn’t say anything.
“What does this mean?” Uncle Li paused for a moment and rushed to the door. “My daughter!”
“She’s downstairs,” Kou Chen said, “talk to Grandma Xu.”
Uncle Li stopped and turned to look at him: “You guys are Xu Zhifan’s friends, why? Do you want to make things bigger? Do you think we adults are afraid of you guys!”
“No, uncle, don’t get me wrong,” Kou Chen smiled. “We just came to Xu Zhifan for dinner.”
Huo Ran felt that Kou Chen shouldn’t laugh. In his gas field of black boss reserve, this smile seemed to have a different meaning, although Huo Ran knew that he just laughed friendly.
And that sentence came to Xu Zhifan for dinner, and it sounded mysterious.
To put aside some movies, this sentence can almost be understood as that we want to kill Xu Zhifan, a traitor, who stole our boss’s goods.
Fortunately, Huo Ran’s cell phone rang, breaking the tense atmosphere.
Huo Ran took out his mobile phone and looked at it. He was unfamiliar with a strange number, but in order to ease the atmosphere, he picked it up without thinking.
“Hello,” he said.
“Hello, I’m a rider,” said the man on the phone. “I’m downstairs in your house now.”
“What?” Huo Ran was dominated by tension all over his head. “Is there no activity at the cycling club today?”
“The hot pot you ordered, the hot pot is here,” said the phone. “Two big bags, are you ordering them?”
“Oh! Hot pot!” Huo Ran responded, “Yes, I ordered it, but I’m … now please help me put it in the security room downstairs, I’m still outside.”
“Okay, there are two six-person packages on the list, there are two pots, and there are two bags of side dishes,” said the rider. “Right?”
“Right,” Huo Ran said, “thank you.”
After hanging up the phone, the atmosphere of the people in the room seemed to be loosening. After all, the phone proved that the meal was really eaten, and the meal was delivered.
However, Uncle Li obviously didn’t want to come to an end today. He pointed to Xu Zhifan: “Tell me first how your family intends to handle this.”
“The police have already been reported …” Xu Zhifan said.
“What’s the use of an alarm!” Another man interrupted him rudely. “They are all adults, without any information, and there is no evidence of danger. Where do you let the police find someone? So many people are missing Can they find it? Do you just wait at home like this! “
“Then you say it,” Xu Zhifan sighed. “What do you think we should do?”
“I care what you do!” The man said, “Now you want to tell Lao Li, what do you do!”
“Our approach is obviously unsatisfactory to Li.” Xu Zhifan said.
The man shouted, and Kou Chen walked half a step in front of him with a cold face. Several people in the room immediately moved at the same time, and the man paused.
Uncle Li waved his hand to stop the man from saying any more. He stared at Xu Zhifan for a long time, and then turned to look at Papa Xu again: “If it wasn’t for such a long-time neighbor, I would have already started. It ’s so messy, you should find someone soon. My son went home a year ago. I ca n’t promise what he will do when that happens. “
After Uncle Li led someone away, the room was a lot empty. Dad Xu slowly sat on the sofa and sighed, holding his head.
“You …” Xu Zhifan looked at them and didn’t know what to say for a moment.
“I stubbornly let them come with me,” Kou Chen said, “I and Huo Ran were very anxious when you saw you go. I am really not assured, in case there is anything you can’t handle, just … “
“Thank you,” Xu Zhifan said.
“Huh?” Kou Chen froze, “I fuck, don’t say that suddenly, I’m not used to it.”
“Thank you,” Xu Zhifan said, “Thank you, really.”
“Don’t say this,” Huo Ran patted him on the back, looked at Papa Xu next to him, and whispered, “You **** fooled me …”
“Wait downstairs,” Xu Zhifan said, “I’ll go down for a while.”
“Um.” Huo Ran answered.
Several people went downstairs and stood behind the flower bed in the corner of Xu Zhifan’s downstairs to avoid the wind.
“Send hot pot?” Wei Chaoren asked.
“Yes, I’ll leave it in the security room,” Huo Ran said. “After a while, you can eat hot and hot. If you want to drink, buy it on the road, my home is gone.”
“Will security eat?” Jiang Lei asked.
“Not so stingy,” Hu Yi said, “the security guard is not surnamed Jiang.”
“You’re wrong, radish,” Jiang Lei looked at him, “is it a group?”
“What’s going on with Xu Zhifan’s family?” Xu Chuan couldn’t help it. “Can you say that? It’s not a small matter.”
“He will come down in a while,” Huo Ran said.
“Doesn’t care about his dad? I don’t think his dad is in a good mood.” Xu Chuan asked.
“His dad must have slept in a while,” Huo Ran said. “It’s normal, but it’s easy to get tired.”
Kou Chen sighed, didn’t speak, and touched a cigarette from his pocket to get out.
“Give me one,” Xu Chuan said.
Kou Chen threw the cigarette case to him. Except Hu Yi did not smoke, several others carried one.
“Here.” Kou Chen gave Huo Ran a cigarette he had lighted.
“I don’t usually see anyone smoking,” Huo Ran took the cigarette. “How is it like being addicted now?”
“You don’t understand then,” Kou Chen took another poke, and pressed against the lighter. “This is called a procedure, not for smoking, but for the atmosphere.”
Everyone nodded.
“Oh.” Huo Ran looked at Kou Chen.
The wind is too strong, the lighter can crack more than eighty times, and the smoke is not lit.
“Return me.” Kou Chen took away the cigarette he had just given him from Huo Ran.
Huo Ran smiled against the wall for a long time.
“Here.” Kou Chen took a sip and passed the cigarette to his mouth.
“I don’t want to,” Huo Ran said with a smile, “don’t mess with …”
“Dog abuse.” Hu Yi answered quickly.
Both Huo Ran and Kou Chen froze, and Kou Chen turned his head to look at him: “I can’t see it, the little carrot can say such a thing.”
“Look, this is the sadness of our single dog,” Jiang Lei said, “both men can abuse the dog.”
A group of people laughed for a long time.
Kou Chen didn’t continue to hand cigarettes to Huo Ran, and he drank a few puffs of cigarettes: “My dad knows that there is smoke on my body, and it can make me frost.”
“Xu Zhifan’s dad is just like your dad,” Jiang Lei said. “His dad is honest, he is not very likely to fight with people, and he can’t make a noise.”
Several people were silent.
After about ten minutes, Xu Zhifan came over from the corner.
A group of people who leaned or sat upright.
“How is your dad?” Huo Ran asked, “how about grandma?”
“My dad has a headache and took medicine to sleep,” Xu Zhifan said. “My grandma is playing cards on the first floor, and she will be sent home after the game.”
“Then …” Kou Chen looked at him, “as planned? Go for hot pot?”
“Um.” Xu Zhifan nodded. “Buy a few bottles at the door, don’t go back at night.”
“Okay,” Wei Chaoren responded immediately. “It’s good to go to school tomorrow.”
“Are there enough places to sleep?” Xu Chuan asked Huo Ran, “Are your parents uncomfortable?”
“They don’t care about me, you can rest assured that you can sleep anywhere,” Huo Ran said.
“I’m going to sleep in a horrible bed,” Wei Chaoren said.
“Then you fight with your boss Kou first.” Xu Zhifan said.
The whole group laughed.
“… forget it,” Wei Chaoren counseled, “can’t beat it.”
When the roadside station waited for the car to come, Xu Zhifan and a few of them went into the nearby supermarket to buy wine. Huo Ran and Kou Chen stood by the roadside.
Kou Chen hasn’t talked too much, presumably because of such a thing, his mind is a bit messy, after all, he hasn’t figured out what happened to the neighbor Xu Zhifan’s family.
“I have something to remind you about.” Kou Chen said suddenly after a long silence.
“Remind.” Huo Ran looked at him.
“I’ll say it first, I definitely don’t want you to have anything to do with it,” Kou Chen said, “but if you run into something, don’t hide it from Xu Zhifan and don’t think about everything yourself Carry on, you have friends. “
“Um.” Huo Ran nodded.
“You have to tell me without telling them,” Kou Chen added.
“Okay, I see.” Huo Ran smiled, “then …”
“I have something to tell you … but I shouldn’t have any major issues,” Kou Chen thought for a while, “My dad won’t hit me for two years. If he hits me, I’ll give it as soon as possible. You call for your help. “
“… Can I not go?” Huo Ran said, “I’m afraid I can’t beat your dad, so he’s just a practising boy.”
Kou Chen laughed: “Really, he went to the boxing gym with his buddies whenever he was free, and lived a particularly healthy life.”
“Your dad has … vitality,” Huo Ran said.
“I’m also very energetic,” Kou Chen raised his arm, “do you want to pinch?”
“… find a girl to ask.” Huo Ran pressed his arm down. “You have almost no image of me at all, and the girls can still get a lot of cheers.”
“Not rare.” Kou Chen dismissed.
“So what are you rare?” Huo Ran said.
“Rarely treat me as a friend,” Kou Chen said, “don’t hide me if something happens, like Xu Zhifan today, I can see it, if not, how do I end it.”
“I see.” Huo Ran patted him on the back.
Kou Chen turned around and stunned him, contented with a kindergarten dog who had just been praised and patted him on the back: “That’s what it sounds like.”
