Nightcrawler: 20 Years of Peaceful Demons

Chapter 91
When I heard someone calling me, I was a little surprised. When I turned around, I found a woman in a yellow skirt with a round face and bright eyes and bright teeth.

She is not very old, and she is wearing an exquisitely tailored long skirt with a round neck that reveals her beautiful collarbone. Under the wrinkled skirt, her white and slender thighs are exposed. A pair of red cloth shoes are simple and elegant.On the wrist of the left hand is a series of small red circle bracelets, the hair is fluffy and coiled, and there are two silver and white hoop earrings hanging on the snow-white earlobe, very fashionable, and also light makeup, light pink lip gloss on the lips, curled eyelashes Flickering and flickering, the bright eyes exude the breath of youth.

I looked at this person, my mind was a little confused, and I asked suspiciously, "Who are you?"

The other party was a little surprised, but soon laughed, and said to me: "Hou Mo, you don't remember me, I, Xia Meng, the one from the cement factory..."

Xia Meng?

As soon as the other party said his name, I immediately remembered it.

In fact, this girl, as I mentioned in the previous article, is the little girl in the workshop who was bullied by the security chief.

At that time, I couldn't see it, so I stood up and rescued the person, but in the end, I was beaten and excluded. What's even more annoying is that this little girl didn't stand up to testify when she was investigating in the factory.

I resigned in a fit of anger and went to the south to wander.

Her current attire is completely different from the plain appearance she wore in work clothes in the cement factory before, and it is normal for me not to recognize her.

Before, I was very angry, but after seeing too many people outside, I thought about it clearly.

Speaking of which, if a little girl, helpless, finally got a formal job, and was a state-owned enterprise, if she really stood up and told the truth, what consequences would she face?

Could she be like me, resign and go south, wandering around?

So I didn't hate her for a long time. Seeing her now, I just treated her as an ordinary acquaintance, nodded with a smile, and said, "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I haven't seen her for a long time, how are you?"

I just said it casually to relieve the embarrassing atmosphere, but Xia Meng said, "I'm not in the cement factory anymore."

what?
I was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "That bastard surnamed Xiong troubled you again later?"

Mentioning the embarrassing past, Xia Meng blushed a little, but she shook her head and said no, my dad had an old comrade in arms, and he transferred me to the China Merchants Bureau in the city. Business establishment...

I heard that it was very good, no wonder I didn't recognize you, the change is quite big now.

Xia Meng looked at me and said yes?
I nodded and said yes, she has become more beautiful, I didn't even dare to admit it just now.

The two chatted for a few words, Xia Meng saw that I didn't show disgust, and dealt with it lukewarmly, bit her lip, and then said: "Hou Mo, I'm sorry, what happened before was my fault, I'm sorry. ..."

She didn't finish talking, so I stopped her and said goodbye, the previous things are over, everyone is fine now, why talk about those.

Xia Meng expressed excitedly: "No, you know, I have always felt guilty in my heart, I feel that I owe you, and I have always wanted to ask you to apologize, but I didn't expect you to leave so suddenly that day."

I waved my hand and said don't talk about it, I didn't take this matter to heart, and without that matter, I might not be able to get to where I am today.It's all over, don't think too much about it.

Xia Meng really didn't mind seeing me, so she didn't continue to apologize, but smiled and said yes, you are right, it's all over—by the way, what are you doing now?

I didn't tell her about my situation, and pointed to my third uncle who was bargaining with the butcher not far away, and said, "A relative in the family passed away, and I'm busy with business. I'm here to help with some shopping and run errands."

Xia Meng asked: "I'm not talking about this, I'm asking where do you work now?"

I said that I was in Pengcheng, a special zone, where I worked in a Taiwan-funded enterprise, responsible for the supply of chemical potions, and ran around, haha...

As I said vaguely, Xia Meng looked at me and said, well, you are more energetic than before, which is a good thing.

I said you have also become quite beautiful.

Xia Meng said that it was because of work needs, hey, by the way, you go home for a few days, if you have time, I will treat you to a meal, which can be regarded as a formal apology for what happened back then.

I said no need, don't be so polite.

Xia Meng said seriously: "No, no, this is what it should be, and we haven't seen each other for a long time, it's good to have a chat..."

The two were talking, and the third uncle not far away yelled at me, saying Da Mo, let's go.

When I heard it, I hurriedly said to Xia Meng: "That's fine, let's see the situation. I have something to do here, so go and do it first."

Xia Meng grabbed me and said what is your phone number?I will find you then.

I grabbed Xia Meng's arm with soft fingers. I had no choice but to report my home phone number to her. Xia Meng took out a small notebook to write it down, and then smiled and said to me: "Don't miss the appointment, you must come ..."

I left in a little embarrassment, and followed Uncle San to load the basket of meat onto the pickup truck.

After finishing all this, the third uncle said to me with a smile: "Da Mo, that girl just now is so beautiful, is she your girlfriend?"

I shook my head and said you were joking, no.

The third uncle wiped his hands, and then said: "It's not a girlfriend, it's a female classmate. In short, the little girl seems to be very interesting to you. You have to take the initiative, develop and develop, and you will become a girlfriend? Look at that Girl, the talent is quite good, where do you work?"

He was full of gossip, so I could only smile wryly and say, "Third Uncle, he is from the City Merchants Bureau, a serious worker, how can he think of me?"

The third uncle blew on his beard and said, what's the matter?I heard from your mother that you can earn [-] a month in the Special Economic Zone?
Hearing his words, I smiled even more wryly.

My mother is good at everything, but she is a little vain, and she loves to brag in front of others—four thousand a month, when my performance was very good, and I just mentioned it to her at that time, but I didn’t expect her to follow her all over the world. People said, I don't know how to answer.

Fortunately, the third uncle said so, but he also felt that there was a gap between me and the girl in the city's investment promotion bureau, so he didn't say any more.

After the two finished buying the meat, they went to the funeral store to buy various things, and went back and forth several times.

The third uncle is getting old, and his waist hurts from exhaustion. Fortunately, after I became a night walker, my physical strength has always been strong, and I took the initiative to do things like moving up and down.

Seeing my vigor, the third uncle sighed, and said that luckily brother Yi asked you to follow me to do these things. If it were another young man who was glib and lazy, I would be miserable.

I laughed and said that you can't knock down a large piece with one stick.

The third uncle said hey, you don’t know, these young people now play cards and smoke every day when they have nothing to do, hang around, don’t take money from their mother’s father at home, and do nothing by themselves, if everyone is like you Earning a lot of money outside, those of us who are old people don’t have to work so hard—after all, your parents are lucky...

Listening to his envious words, I lowered my head, not knowing what to say.

Maybe the me before could be the situation he said, and also a child of someone else's family, but now I...

Ugh.

In the affairs of the world, there are gains and losses, how can everything go well?

I stayed busy with my third uncle until midnight before returning home. My mother came back, but my father was still guarding the mourning hall.

The so-called wake-up means setting up a few tables of mahjong to play there, borrowing a video recorder, and moving a color TV next to the mourning hall for children and young people to watch.

At that time, this thing was very rare, and many people came to watch it. When I passed by, I saw a movie by Stephen Chow called "The Variety Star". There was a scene in which the ice cream fell into the swimsuit while riding a helicopter Going inside the "European style" of girls caused adults to cover children's eyes one after another.

I watched Stephen Chow's movies when I was in Pengcheng, and I didn't like playing mahjong, so I came back after chatting with my father.

At home, my mother pulled me to ask questions, and told me a lot of things. I barely dealt with it, and told a bunch of white lies. When I couldn't bear it anymore, I asked as many people as I wanted.

My mother said that everyone else pays 58 and ten, but we can pay one hundred.

I thought about it, went back to my room, and took out 5000 yuan from the envelope in my bag. After I came out, I handed it to my mother, saying that you take the money, and take out [-] yuan to help me with the gift, and you keep the rest of the money. .

Mother took the money, a little bit reluctant, why did she give so much?It is not easy for you to earn money.

I said that it was not easy for Sister Li. As an orphan and widow, I feel that the mother-in-law is not an easy person to get along with, and life is difficult;

After talking to this point, my mother didn't object any more, but she was still a little bit reluctant, and kept talking about it, saying that I was spending money and wasted money now.

I listened and smiled wryly in my heart, not knowing what to say.

I had nothing to say all night, and in the next few days, I was busy with my third uncle.

Because I have been working outside for many years, my attitude towards people and my ability to do things are not bad. The third uncle is very satisfied and often praises me in front of several principals in the village. Yes, it might be a talent in the future.

To my surprise, there were still people who wanted to introduce me, and the girls were all brought to my house.

I didn't dare to delay others, so I hurriedly declined.

On the day of going up the mountain, a whole theater troupe was invited to set up a stage to handle affairs, blowing trumpets and suonas, it was very lively.

The gentleman who presided over the funeral is a celebrity here. I talked to Ma Yi'ao and talked with him for a while. That's right, but at this moment, my mother ran over and said to me: "Da Mo, it's not good, go out quickly, there's a noise outside."

I was taken aback for a moment, who was arguing?

Mother said that a group of beggars came from nowhere, and they quarreled with your cousin.
