Zhong Kui guessed correctly, the baby came for him...
Boss Murong escaped with his wife and children all the way, thinking that he would hide at a relative's house for a while and then come back. In his expectation, Zhong Kui's shop had been shut down, so there was no chance. So he calculated that after escaping this disaster, he would try again.
When you return to this street, you will dominate the market.
The family of three sat in a tricycle. As the wheels of the tricycle rolled over the uneven road, the carport trembled and bumped from side to side. Because of the tension, they did not say anything for a moment.
The fat woman was curious about where her husband had left that strange baby. When she left the county town and entered the rural road, she finally couldn't help but asked: "Where did you leave him?"
"In the trash can." Boss Murong had a gloomy face, glanced at the tricycle driver's thick back, and whispered quietly. He also hinted to his wife not to ask so many questions with his eyes.
The hard-working tricycle driver finally got a deal today, but he didn't expect that the employer he hired was so heavy, including a fat woman, a tall, thin, miserly man, and a child.
What is the concept of a weak baby being thrown into the trash can alive? The fat woman shuddered and glanced sideways at her husband, suddenly feeling that he was so strange.
Boss Murong's relatives live in a relatively remote location in the county. Menling Village is also remote. This place is in the opposite direction of Menling Village.
My relatives grow a lot of corn, sorghum, and other grains. They are so busy all year round that they have no time to go to the county. In their eyes, the people in the county are fools. There is a saying that grass will not grow on the bluestone.
One? I’m talking about these residents who live on the bluestone slabs.
But farmers also envy the benefits of county residents, that is, their bodies are clean at all times and they can walk a long way without getting even a speck of mud on them.
The basic roads in rural areas are paved with cobblestones and charcoal ash, which is pretty good. Some roads are just mud roads, which are fine when the weather is sunny, but when it rains, they are so muddy that it is difficult to walk.
The road was getting harder and harder to walk. The tricycle seemed to be overwhelmed and creaked. The tricycle driver was even more sweaty. He was only wearing a short undershirt and it was already soaked with sweat.
The forest with lush green leaves in front is also a soft slope. If the tricycle driver needs to rest, he has to pedal up the soft slope. However, the combined weight of these three people cannot easily pedal up the slope smoothly in one go.
Look at the soft slope. The tricycle driver held back all his strength and pushed his buttocks with all his strength, but the wheel was still motionless and stagnant. The strength was gone and the tricycle driver rolled back. The tricycle driver was helpless.
, and had no choice but to ask for help from Boss Murong and his family who were riding in the car.
The tricycle driver wiped his sweat, looked at Boss Murong who was sitting as steady as a mountain in the car with a smile on his face and said: "Boss, please help me."
Boss Murong's face was gloomy and he said angrily: "What can I help you with? Leave quickly and stop gossiping."
"No...this section of the road is on a soft slope. It takes a lot of energy to pedal up it with an empty car. Plus with the weight of your family, it will be difficult to pedal up it."
The tricycle driver's eyes looked for help, hoping that Boss Murong would get off the bus and give him a push.
"You're talking nonsense. How can anyone get out of a car and push a cart? I've lived for most of my life and I've never encountered this kind of thing. Besides, I'm paying you to ride in the car. Don't talk nonsense and hurry up."
Boss Murong said in a serious tone.
The tricycle driver glanced dejectedly at the Murong family who were sitting firmly in the car like a master. He had no choice but to get on the tricycle again. He gritted his teeth and tried his best to move one foot, two feet, three feet slowly.
Move the wheels.
Due to the great exertion, the veins on his neck bulged out like earthworms, twisting and protruding one after another. With a creaking sound that he didn't like to hear the most, the tricycle driver suddenly stopped, and his whole body fell apart. He was so exhausted that he no longer had any extra strength.
Move forward.
The car stopped on a soft slope and couldn't even control the brakes. The wheels moved back as expected, and then back again... Monet, the tricycle driver, sighed.
Boss Murong in the car angrily cursed: "You fucking coward, get off the car..." As he spoke, he hugged the child sitting on his lap and got off the tricycle first, followed by the fat woman.
The tricycle driver nodded and bowed in apology, and kept promising that as long as they were a family, they would only walk a short distance uphill, and when his empty cart reached the soft slope, he would not even bother to stop and take them to their destination immediately.
How could Boss Murong let go of this opportunity to blackmail the tricycle driver so easily? He saw that more than half of the distance had passed. The remaining journey was not far away, and he would be there in less than half an hour.
Thinking of this, he glared at the tricycle driver angrily and said: "Forget it, I won't ride in your car, and I won't pay you the fare. Just go!"
The honest tricycle driver was dumbfounded when he heard what the boss said.
By the way: It took a long time to get the whole family here, and it took a lot of effort! It's too much to not give the money if you don't want it.
The tricycle driver thought that something was wrong and that the boss was too stingy, so he immediately followed the boss with his empty cart.
The empty car ran at a fast speed, bumping and clanking all the way, and finally came to a stop on the soft slope in front.
Boss Murong walked past the tricycle without raising his eyelids. The fat woman couldn't bear it and turned to look at the poor tricycle driver.
"Husband, just give him a few dollars to spend." The woman's heart seemed to be softer.
"Shut up." Boss Murong's face darkened and he scolded his wife.
"Boss, don't worry, I have an old and a young family at home, and they still rely on me to take money home to eat! You can't do this! You all get in the car, and I promise that my hard work will not delay your business."
"Go away... don't talk nonsense. I didn't call you to compensate me today. It would be considered benevolent. What else do you want?" Boss Murong said bitterly.
"You guys..." The tricycle driver wanted to be rude, but then he thought about it and decided to get the money properly. Maybe he would use softer words and the other party would change his mind.
With this thought, he continued to push the tricycle and follow Boss Murong, and kept saying good things.
Two adults, hugging a child, and a tricycle following beside them. What's this? Others didn't know it and thought they were crazy people! I think Boss Murong is also a person who has seen the world, how could he be embarrassed?
Get rid of this person?
He stopped and said to the tricycle driver: "You can pay me if you want. The ten yuan I just mentioned needs to be reduced now."
"No way! Ten yuan is the cheapest price for your journey of dozens of miles." The tricycle driver said with a crying face. But he didn't dare to slack off at all and had to continue to follow. He felt exhausted mentally and physically due to the hard work.
.
"Don't follow." Boss Murong said firmly.
It's over, it's over. If I had known it, I would have promised him to reduce his wages. The tricycle driver was very desperate and sighed helplessly: "Okay! If you reduce it, you can reduce it. You can pay it as you see."
Boss Murong smiled slyly and saw that it was already getting late. A layer of dark clouds was approaching in the distance. He gradually stopped, hugged his children, and got into the car with his wife...
Just when Boss Murong got on the bus and had yet to sit firmly, the tricycle suddenly took off the driver's control and began to fly away.
