The door of the courtyard house has been welded dead

"Abalagu~!"

"Abalagu~!"

Humming an enchanting song, He Yuzhu put one hand in his trouser pocket and walked back from the alley with a staggering step, the net bag in his hand swaying back and forth.

Even at the age of 41, his nonchalant temperament has not faded at all, except that there are more wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.

The song he was humming was from the Indian movie "The Wanderer", called "Raz's Song".

This brainwashing divine song from abroad, along with a related movie, caused a sensation in the 1970s and was widely circulated on the streets.

From the title of the movie, you can tell that it is about people wandering on the streets, used for self-deprecation. Of course, the national conditions are different. Here, it is not called wandering, but blind migration.

"Pillar~!"

Just after turning the corner of the supply and marketing cooperative, someone suddenly rushed over. Dazhuzi was so scared that he danced with joy. He took two steps back and immediately spun the net bag in his hand, ready to smash him like a meteor hammer the next second.

"It's you—Xu, Shamao~!"

When he saw who was coming, He Yuzhu's nervous expression immediately relaxed. Looking at Xu Damao, who was dressed properly, he clicked his tongue and shook his head.

"I'm back, Zhuzi, I'm released from prison~!"

"I know. The people in the hospital have already told me that I can come back if I want. What's the matter? Are you not convinced and still want to practice?"

As he spoke, He Yuzhu rolled up his sleeves. It had been a long time since he had beaten Xu Damao. To be honest, when he suddenly met him, he felt a little itchy.

Seeing He Yuzhu who was eager to try, it started again. Xu Damao narrowed his eyes, bent his body, immediately gave in, pressed his hands, and looked very humble.

"No, Zhuzi, we are both this age, why are we still fighting? After all these years, I have regretted it. We are neighbors and grew up together. Even if we can't be close friends, there is no need to show our teeth when we meet. Don't you think this is the truth~!"

It's rare to hear Xu Damao say such sensible words. Forget it, I won't beat him today. Dazhuzi twisted his neck. It's so lonely to be a master~!

"Wouldn't it have been over earlier? You had to go to jail and accept the iron-fisted transformation of the dictatorship before you knew how to repent. To be honest, you deserve it~!"

He Yuzhu put the net bag on his back. In front of other people, he didn't dare to show off. But in front of Xu Damao who bowed his head and surrendered, he could do so, even though the two hadn't seen each other for more than ten years.

When they get together, they don't feel strangers at all. It's like they were enemies in their previous life and became enemies in this life, but they know each other too well.

"Yes, I deserve it. I owe it. Whatever you say is right. Isn't it too late for me to regret it~?"

"If I had known this, why would I have spent so much money in the first place? Tell me, you are not as good as me now~!"

Not knowing what Xu Damao wanted to do by blocking him here, He Yuzhu controlled his tone, trying to show off how carefree his life was now.

Compared with other families in the courtyard, only the unlucky Xu Damao can regain a sense of existence.

"Okay, you just have to poke me in the heart and make me feel uncomfortable, right?

Ouch, Zhuzi, I have been badly harmed by the Lou family!
They ran away and ended up using me as the replacement.

You said, at that time, when the factory's propaganda department went to the countryside to show movies, every projectionist would take some money back.

Besides, you are a cook, and you guys in the kitchen should bring back some leftovers, right?"

Xu Damao had a depressed look on his face. He couldn't tell anyone about these things. Only the person who almost beat him to death knew how wronged he was.

"I have a home but cannot go back. My parents gave me a set of old clothes and now they don't recognize me. I have no job and no house. I don't know where to go!" Pinching his sleeves and wiping the corners of his eyes, Xu Damao really couldn't find anyone to ask for help. The only one was Sha Zhu, a man with a sharp tongue but a soft heart who had not yet married and started a family. He was easy to fool.

“Stop~!”

“Stop~!”

"Oh~~, Xu Damao, please don't say these things in front of me.

I am just a small cook in a restaurant. At most, I can cook a few dishes. I can’t solve the case. I don’t have that ability.

I don't know how there are so many yellow croakers in your house. I can't help you. Your case is a death sentence and there is no way to overturn it~!"

He Yuzhu waved his hands repeatedly. He thought that Xu Damao wanted to clear his name. If he really had that ability, why would he continue to be a cook?

The only two people he could barely say he knew were a senior leader, but he never went there after Nan Yi replaced him and their relationship had long since faded. The remaining one was Li Feng, who would never like Xu Damao.

"No, that's not what I meant. You misunderstood, Zhuzi. Let me see the vegetables you brought and the ones I bought at the market. Let's put aside our past grudges and make peace. Let's have a drink together."

Having said that, Xu Damao turned around and was about to go to the yard with He Yuzhu. He was unemployed this time, and his sister at home didn't like him as a brother. She had some ideas in her mind, but she needed Zhuzi's help.

"No, Shamao, we are just talking about how we are getting older and I have let go of the past. I don't want to argue about it anymore, but our relationship has not reached the point where you can come to my house and drink, right?"

He Yuzhu stopped moving. Xu Damao's expression was so quick and familiar that even Dazhu could not bear it. He was worried that he would be sold out by this guy, so he helped him count the money.

Zhuzi had also been in prison, and he knew what it was like inside. There were all kinds of people there. Xu Damao had been in prison for so many years, and who knew if his interests and hobbies would change. He got himself drunk, hiss!

You can't think about it. Sha Mao's fists are not hard. He is more scared than anyone else when he is beaten. Zhuzi doesn't dare to think too much about it.

"Okay, I know you still mind what I did in the past, but, Zhuzi, there is one thing you are sorry for~!"

When Sha Zhu heard this, he became even more evasive and didn't dare look at Xu Damao's burning gaze. His scalp felt tingling at this moment.

"At that time, I would trip you up and you would beat me up, and we would just go back and forth like that.

But you know whether you did it in a shady way or not. The old Chinese doctor in the prison told me when he examined me that I couldn’t have children because of the trauma.”

"Zhu Zi, I committed a crime, I am in jail, I deserve it~!

But I can't have a child, isn't that what I deserve?

At that time, you either hit me on the head and almost killed me, or you stole my peaches like a monkey. Even if I am a bad person, I would never ask you to help me get rid of my descendants, right?"

"I'm not looking for revenge on you right now. I'm just in trouble and I want you to lend a hand and give me some help~!"

Xu Damao took a step forward, his voice sounding extremely sad, as if he had been abandoned by the unfaithful He Yuzhu, which led to his current situation.

Dazhuzi pondered for a moment. He certainly couldn't admit it verbally. What if Xu Damao had no other choice but to come to blackmail him? If he admitted it, he would be in debt to Dafa.

But if he didn't admit it, he would be going against his conscience. As for whether it was caused by beating himself, to be honest, He Yuzhu had no idea. He had beaten himself there, but he was not a doctor and could not judge.

"Don't blackmail me. It's none of my business if you can't have a baby, but seeing how you are now, I, Zhuzi, am kindhearted and can't stand seeing this. Tell me first what you want to help me with. If I can help you, I'll help you. If I can't help you, don't mention it~!"

"No employer wants me now, so I plan to be a self-employed person and go to the south. Can you help me get a letter of introduction and lend me some money? I have inquired about a new videotape that has come out in the south, and I want to go and see it in person and try my luck~!" (End of this chapter)
