Chapter 31: What to call, call me daddy(1/2)
Seeing the rotten melons, Zhang Jianshe was dissatisfied and said, "You guys are really useless." Then he said angrily, "You don't know that I have diabetes, but you still buy fruits. Are you asking me to commit suicide by taking sugar?
Lao Zhang sometimes convinced Rou to commit suicide, and sometimes blamed his family for letting him commit suicide by taking sugar. Anyway, everything in the world is poisonous.
Yang Xiaohong couldn't bear it anymore: "If you don't eat, you won't be happy for me and Joy to eat. We are not human beings?"
After dinner, Zhang Jianshe dressed up elegantly and went to perform a one-on-one dance. Yang Xiaohong suddenly said: "I found a job. I work as a cleaner in Joy's company, and I happen to be taking care of my youngest daughter nearby. Aren't you worried about Lu Bo coming to harass you?"
Well, it’s fine now, I’m with her 24 hours a day.”
Zhang Jianshe's heart had long drifted to the dancing men and women on the dance floor, and he was completely uninterested in this matter. He only said: "It doesn't matter if you find a job to work as a gangster. Anyway, you have nothing to do at home. You just have a little more income. Let's go. I
Let’s go for a walk. I haven’t exercised much recently, and my bones feel weak.”
Yang Xiaohong pretended to be nonchalant and said, "By the way, I joined the company today, and the company advanced two thousand yuan in salary in advance, and I have already transferred it to Uncle Joy for medical treatment."
Zhang Jianshe's face changed drastically: "What did the second brother say?"
Yang Xiaohong: "It's nothing. Her second uncle was playing cards and hung up immediately after answering."
Zhang Jianshe still didn't feel at ease and didn't go out. He slipped directly into the bathroom. Yang Xiaohong crept over and put her ear to the door. Her husband's voice could be heard faintly inside.
Obviously, Lao Zhang is confronting his second brother with his confession.
After a long time, he walked out of the bathroom, stretched out and said, "I don't have the strength, so I won't go out." Then he lay on the sofa and watched TV. While watching TV, he peeked at his wife, looking very guilty.
Yang Xiaohong, on the other hand, sat next to him and played with her mobile phone, and didn't go to bed until 11 o'clock in the evening.
It was already late at night, and Xiao Tingzhi came back from a date with a bag from Grandma Xiang in her hand. The man still insisted on giving it to her.
Xiao Tingzhi had no choice but to half push and half accept it on the spot.
Cure all diseases.
Xiao Tingzhi likes bags, jewelry, brand-name clothes, watches, and all luxury goods. This is the nature of a woman, especially a woman with an appearance of over 80. She likes these glittering things, and the glitter behind them.
Contains things. Sister Xiao is a dragon, the dragon Smaug in Western fantasy stories.
But she really can't like the person she's dating. He's too clingy and has no temperament, and there's really no feeling of heartbeat. She has encountered countless such confessions since high school and has long been immune to them.
What is a blind date? A blind date is when a woman with the most emotional experience in the world and a man with the least experience are forcibly brought together. It would be strange to have a common language and get along harmoniously.
She thought about this person this time and felt that it was inappropriate, so she planned to find a suitable time to refuse it.
Even if we break up, we will still be friends. Just leave a good impression on each other.
Just as I was thinking about it, the taxi stopped and we were home.
Sister Xiao is beautiful, loves to dress up, has an elegant temperament, and is well-behaved. Getting along with her makes people feel like they are in a spring breeze. Especially after her recent promotion, she gives people the impression that she is a successful person and has stepped into the middle class.
In fact, her situation is not very good.
Xiao Tingzhi rents in Yongfeng, which used to be an old city and was originally prosperous. However, over the past few decades, the houses have become dilapidated. Now it is a gathering place for migrant workers who come from all walks of life. The environment is quite poor.
of.
Every time Sister Xiao goes out, she will be stared at by a group of idle people and her heart will tremble. Especially in a closed space like an elevator, next to an undistinguished man, that feeling is particularly special.
Strong.
She came back late today and the surrounding lights were dim. She was a little scared. She hugged her bag and ran quickly. She ran into the elevator in one breath. Fortunately, there was no one inside. When she got to the seventh floor, she panted and fumbled for the key and opened the door.
.
The lights inside were on, and it looked cramped and messy. It had two bedrooms and one living room, fifty square meters. The dining room doubled as the living room, and the bathroom was so small that she could only move around. If she was a little fatter, she would be suffocated.
Living here is like a real snail, and this apartment is like a heavy shell on your back.
It's summer now, and the house is as stuffy as an oven, but there are traces of water leaking out of the walls, making the house always smell of mold.
Xiao Tingzhi saw the lights on at home, shook her head, and thought to herself: I forgot to turn off the lights again, it's so hot...it's wrong...
An unprecedented fear surged into my heart.
Yes, something is wrong. In addition to the musty smell in the air, there is also the smell of low-quality liquor and tobacco. There are peanuts, leftover chicken feet with pickled peppers, half a bottle of Luzhou Erqu, and half a pack of Ziyun on the coffee table.
At this moment, a fat man in flowery trousers with a cigarette in his mouth walked out of the bathroom. He touched his big belly and burped loudly as he walked.
Xiao Tingzhi screamed hysterically: "Ah!"
The man was so frightened by her scream that he dropped his cigarette: "What are you yelling at? Do I want to eat people? Call me daddy!"
With a sullen face, Xiao Tingzhi opened the boxes and cabinets at home, even the refrigerator. For a moment, the whole house was filled with the sound of ping-ping-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong.
Man: "Stop it. Apart from clothes and bottles and cans to wipe your face, you have nothing of value in your house. You don't even want to give it to me."
"Valuable things?" When the man said this, Sister Xiao took a breath and looked back at the entry cabinet. The five bags placed there were missing.
Sister Xiao asked angrily: "Where is my bag?"
Man: "Oh, you said there were a few bags there. They were tacky and old-fashioned. I was in a hurry this time and didn't bring any money, so I sent them to the pawn shop and sold them for dead. I really didn't expect that such junk stuff would still be available.
A bit expensive, one thousand for one."
"What, one thousand for one, you... you just sold it." Sister Xiao suddenly felt like the world was spinning.
The five bags are all big international brands, including Gucci, Donkey, and Prada. There are bucket bags, pistol bags, and backpacks. The cheapest one is also Coach. They were all given to her by her suitors. Now they all have the same name.
Sold for a thousand yuan?

Looking at Sister Xiao's pale face, she said, "What's the matter? What's wrong with selling you a few bags? I smoke, drink, and eat for free? What's the matter? I...did I sell it cheap?"
Sister Xiao: "The cheapest one is worth eight thousand, and the most expensive one is worth forty-eight thousand."
"Ah, damn, were you cheated? I'll beat them to death!" The man was furious and said harshly: "This time I'm going to teach you, an unfilial son, a lesson. Is it profound? Bring it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he snatched the bag from Xiao Tingzhi's hand, turned it over, and dumped the messy things inside to the floor, shouting: "How much is this worth?"
Xiao Tingzhi was so angry that her whole body was shaking: "What are you doing?"
"What are you doing? What did you tell me to do?" the man scolded, "I, Xie Guitang, am fifty-four and have no food to eat. It is only natural that I ask you to provide for me in old age. This is the right given to me by the law. Rebellious and unfilial son, let's see how you hide this time."
?"
Sister Xiao: "Xie Guitang, your surname is Xie, and my surname is Xiao, why should I support you? When you abandoned my mother and me, did you think that today, how could you still have the nerve to look for relatives?"
Xie Guitang disdainfully said: "I don't care if your surname is Nitrate or Alkaline, Xie Surong, as long as I have my blood flowing in your veins, you have to support me. You are talking nonsense to the judge. I heard from relatives that you, Xiao Tingzhi, have been promoted now.
How come you are a great director and a minister, you are so prosperous, why do you still live in such a lousy house? That’s not right!”
"You have no control over what kind of house I live in. You are not welcome here. Please leave now."
"Hey, you're kicking me out. I won't leave today. Call the police! Let's see if the police come later. Will they condemn you for being an unfilial person or me? Kick me out. I think you've eaten a bear's heart.
Damn, my skin is itching!" Xie Guitang waved a slap as big as a cattail leaf fan and was about to slap him.
Sister Xiao raised her face and gritted her teeth: "You hit me, you beat me. Didn't you beat me too often when I was a kid? I remember it all, and I will never forget it."
Seeing the unruly and strong look in his daughter's eyes, Xie Guitang snorted: "You are an adult now, why should I hit you? Today is a good day for our father and daughter to reunite. If I don't talk to you, I won't have anything to do with you. I won't drink with you."
I’ll drink two cups.”
Sister Xiao entered the bedroom with a sullen face, slammed the door, and cried silently on the bed. That day when she came out of the mall and received a call with a local accent, she felt something was wrong, and she had been in a state of uneasiness for the past few days. Unexpectedly, she should
What comes comes comes.
Yes, this old scumbag Xie Guitang is her father.
Ever since Xiao Tingzhi could remember, Xie Guitang had been quarreling and fighting with her mother all day long. In the end, he abandoned his wife and children and wandered around the world. People said that he was digging coal somewhere in other provinces and working on a sewing machine in a coastal garment factory.
Now I'm living with someone, and now I don't want to struggle to be that rich woman's son-in-law... Anyway, it's all there.
Sister Xiao's mother couldn't live with her daughter, so she had no choice but to take her back to her parents' home. She worked hard to raise the child and send her to college. Later, she died of illness due to overwork.
Xiao Tingzhi will always remember her father's determination and cruelty, and she will always remember the contempt and rejection she received from the world when she was a child because she grew up in a single-parent family with limited material resources.
She hates, she can never forgive.
Now that Xie Guitang is old and has no labor force, he wants to support him in his old age. Where does he have the face?
Outside, the old scumbag was drinking, making a pleasant sound; he was chewing peanuts until they crackled, and then he shouted: "Why didn't you buy a TV? What can I watch without a TV? It's a broken place, and I'm still the director?"
, worse than a dog."
Sister Xiao cried for who knows how long before she fell into a drowsy sleep.
She went to the bathroom in the middle of the night and saw Xie Guitang still drinking. There were cigarette butts all over the floor, smoke was billowing, and various smells in the living room were mixed together, with rich layers. He was sweating profusely, with a wet towel hanging around his neck: "Okay
Wine, after drinking our wine, your mouth won’t stink after you vent it up and down.”
The next morning, Sister Xiao spent a long time putting on makeup to barely cover up the tiredness and sadness on her face. Thinking of the bag snatched away by her father, she became angry and went out to work without eating breakfast.
Xie Guitang was eating at a soup pot restaurant outside the community and started drinking again. When he saw her from a distance, he shouted: "Xie Surong, come here and pay."
Xiao Tingzhi ignored it.
I didn't have breakfast and was so hungry that I couldn't bear it. After arriving at the office, Sister Xiao made a cup of boiled water with sugar and while she was drinking it, the soup came over to her: "Sister Xiao, I have something to ask you."
Sister Xiao: "What's the matter?"
Xiaotang: "Sister, is your father a retired professor from the National Normal University? He studied at Stanford and taught English when he was young?"
Sister Xiao: "Yeah, what's wrong?"
