Rebirth of the Great Era 1993

Stepping on the bluestone road as smooth as a mirror, Zhang Xuan looked at the old houses on both sides and couldn't help but ask Deng Daqing:

"Can I have business if I open a restaurant in a place like this?"

Lao Deng replied: "The business is really average, and the people eating are all regular customers from the nearby alleys.

If it weren't for Qian Shili's skill, that shabby restaurant would have been dead long ago. "

Zhang Xuan said in confusion: "His father has been missing for so many years. Logically speaking... he shouldn't be able to come back..."

Lao Deng also felt the same way: "You are right. Qian Shili actually knew very well that a living person had disappeared for more than ten years for no reason, how could he come back?

But he couldn't bear to move. After all, the small restaurant was opened by his father, it was the place where his deceased daughter-in-law's life essence and blood were stored, and it was also the spiritual sustenance of his old mother.

Don't you know that her mother is looking forward to her husband's return every day? "

When passing by a house, Zhang Xuan found a couple fighting at the door. The scene was lively and the fight was fierce.

em…, no, that’s not right.

It's not really a fight between husband and wife. It's completely a man unilaterally dragging the woman's hair and beating her wildly on the ground.

The woman instinctively protected her head with her hands, not daring to talk back or fight back. She let the man's fists fall like raindrops and let the man curse.

Women know how to cry, cry loudly, cry sadly...

The look of compassion and compassion is unbearable.

Seeing Zhang Xuan and Lao Deng stop and look at him, the man immediately stared and cursed: "What are you looking at! Have you never seen anyone beating his wife?"

Lao Deng tried to persuade him: "A grown man must be dignified and don't touch his wife. If there is anything wrong, you can speak up..."

"Diao, you are trying to imitate what others are doing. Do you think you are doing Hi on the other side? Get out! Otherwise, I will beat you both up!" The man had a very hot temper. He immediately grabbed the chair next to him and threw it at the two of them. Come smash it.

Bang!

The two of them jumped quickly when they saw the opportunity. The chair was smashed into the air and one of their feet was broken when it hit the ground.

Damn, that’s a bit arrogant!

You can’t even take a look at it when you’re passing by?

Zhang Xuan couldn't bear it when he dared to blow his beard and glare after just one look.

Just when Zhang Xuan was about to take action, Lao Deng had already rushed over.

With a chirp, Lao Deng picked up a brick from the ground and rushed over.

Zhang Xuan was afraid that his physical strength would suffer, so he didn't hesitate and kicked him with a flying kick.

The man looked tall and majestic, but he couldn't bear the beating at all. His body was much more sincere than his mouth. After a few blows, he was beaten so hard that he cowered on the ground and shouted "Help!"...

"Ha! Turns out he's a coward! He only knows how to beat up bitches. What's the point of beating up bitches? I'll beat you every time I see you in the future." Lao Deng was so angry that he slapped her away again. Finally, he spat at Xingzi, adjusted his glasses and walked away. people.

Zhang Xuan looked at the stunned woman, clapped his hands and followed Lao Deng.

After walking about 20 meters, Zhang Xuan looked back cautiously. Seeing that the man had not chased him out, he felt relieved and joked:

"I said, Lao Deng, you were too brave just now, but picking up bricks was out of character."

Lao Deng burst into laughter and said in a very gentle manner: "We are not fools. That big guy is obviously stronger than me. I wouldn't dare to do it without bricks."

Zhang Xuan looked over and asked, "What if I'm not here?"

Lao Deng replied confidently: "Then I'll pretend I didn't see it."

Zhang Xuan was speechless, "Just to make people white and fierce?"

Lao Deng said: "What's the point? Human beings, there will always be unsatisfactory times in life, so be patient and let it pass. Take a step back and the world will be brighter."

Zhang Xuan's eyelids twitched and he was instantly convinced!

After a long while, he gave a thumbs up and said: "Old Deng, you are so damn talented! You are so artful about bullying the weak and fearing the strong."

Lao Deng didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "Don't think I don't know. You practice boxing upstairs every day, so it shouldn't be a problem to hit one or two people. This is what gave me the confidence to take action just now.

Damn it, you don’t know, I, Old Deng, dislike men who beat their wives the most.

When I was a child, my old father also liked to beat my old mother. I once used a knife to beat her hard. My father seemed to have changed a lot in the next ten years. He was very docile. Unfortunately, he died a little early. Alas... "

"..."

Zhang Xuan was speechless and didn't know how to comfort him.

After crossing the straight road and coming to a corner, Lao Deng suddenly pulled him and started running.

Faced with the unexpected situation, Zhang Xuan looked confused and ran away, asking, "What's going on?"

After running past the two-story wooden house, Lao Deng reminded: "Look carefully, when you pass the corner, everyone is running."

Zhang Xuan turned his head and didn't know if he didn't look at it, oh! At first glance, this is indeed the case.

A group of five and a half young men wandered slowly along the straight road, but as soon as they reached the corner, they started running as fast as they could.

Those children also made scary sounds like "Oh oh oh oh...".

After looking at the wooden house, Zhang Xuan asked: "Is there something wrong?"

Lao Deng took a look at the wooden house and said naggingly: "This is a ghost house."

A haunted house?

Zhang Xuan felt inexplicably nervous: "Isn't there someone living inside? Isn't there a man smoking a cigarette at the door? Why is it a ghost house?"

Lao Deng told him: "It is said, and I have heard it too, that the little old man smoking dry cigarettes is a craftsman.

In his early years, he went out to make a living and was away from home. When he came back, he found that his parents had died of illness. He was a filial son and said that he had not taken good care of his parents during his lifetime and would take good care of them after his death.

So the bones were not buried, but were made into golden bodies and placed on the shrine, where they burned incense and prayed day and night. "

Zhang Xuan felt cold after hearing this, "No one cares?"

Lao Deng shook his head: "I must have taken care of it. But I am just a single man. He didn't even get married because of this matter. He is barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes. How can he take care of it?"

Zhang Xuan was at a loss for words. There seemed to be many such old stubborns in society, so he quickly changed the subject:

"How much longer do we have to go?"

Lao Deng said: "Hurry up, turn two corners ahead and walk about a hundred meters to get there."

At this time, Zhang Xuan felt a little cold behind him, so he stepped over Deng Daqing and said, "Old Deng, let's go another way when we get home later."

Lao Deng laughed: "Zhang Xuan, look at how cowardly you are, are you scared?"

Zhang Xuan asked back: "Aren't you afraid?"

Lao Deng said: "I'm not afraid during the day, but I am afraid at night. I used to take another exit at night."

Zhang Xuan suggested: "In the future, take another exit during the day to be careful of the man's revenge."

Lao Deng said thoughtfully, "You are right. From now on, I won't go this way alone. I will take a detour and go that way."

Qian Shili's restaurant is hidden in an old alley.

From the outside, it looks like a low-rise bungalow, no different from a residential house. It would not rank among the private hotels in Yangcheng.

To the left of the restaurant is a hotel with a small sign and not large scale.

To the right of the restaurant is a cloth shop. There are more than a dozen custom-made suits hanging at the door, and there is a tailor inside taking measurements for customers.

After a quick glance around, Zhang Xuan's eyes finally landed on the old lady at the door of the restaurant.

The old lady looked like she was in her 70s. She was sitting in a wheelchair basking in the sun with a demented expression. The whole body is quite clean.

There was a nurse next to her, squatting on one side with a bowl, and carefully feeding the old lady with a spoon. Her movements were gentle, her voice was soft, and she looked very patient.

Zhang Xuan asked quietly: "Is this Mrs. Qian Shili?"

Lao Deng said in a low voice, "That's not true. No matter it's windy or rainy, this old lady has to sit at the door waiting for her husband to come back every day. She has been like this every day for more than ten years. She is also infatuated."

The small restaurant has a small appearance, with only 6 tables inside.

Maybe it was because it wasn't dinner time yet, but there were only two guests, so it seemed a little deserted.

At this time, Qian Shili was drinking tea and chatting with a young man around an Eight Immortals table.

Seeing Zhang Xuan and Lao Deng come in, Qian Shili and the young man stood up immediately.

The young man tilted his head and said, "Hey, you rare guest, Lao Deng, why are you willing to come here today?"

Lao Deng and Deng were very familiar with each other. He pulled Zhang Xuan sideways and said with a smile: "I brought my boss here to have a dental ceremony. Lao Qian, you have to show your special skills today."

Then Lao Deng pointed at the young man and ridiculed: "Xu Haizhi is a second-generation man. Apart from being attracted to a small star in Xiangjiang, he is like me on weekdays, just hanging around in the workplace and waiting to die."

Zhang Xuan was a little surprised by Lao Deng's tone, so rude?

It seems that the man named Xu and Lao Deng are very good friends.

Then he stretched out his hand: "Hello, Zhang Xuan."

Xu Haizhi shook his hand enthusiastically and asked: "Hello, big boss, do you like female celebrities?"

Zhang Xuan, "..."

I've never seen anything so unreliable.

Qian Shili couldn't see it and kicked Xu Haizhi directly: "Stop your tricks and don't scare people when we first meet."

Xu Haizhi patted his trouser legs and said with a nonchalant smile: "Anyone who can play with Lao Deng is not a petty person."

Lao Deng responded, "That's for sure. If he was petty, I wouldn't introduce him to you, a ruffian."

After inviting Zhang Xuan and Lao Deng to sit down and pouring them a cup of tea, Qian Shili asked them, "What would you like to eat?"

Lao Deng looked at Zhang Xuan and said, "Zhang Xuan, you come first."

It took 40 minutes to get here, and Zhang Xuan was too lazy to be polite and said casually: "Let's have crispy roast pork and Ah Yi abalone."

Then he asked: "Is there abalone in the store?"

Qian Shili nodded: "Don't worry, we have it. What else do you want to eat?"

After ordering two dishes, Zhang Xuan looked at Lao Deng and Xu Haizhi with interest, "I'm done, let's ask them."

Xu Haizhi sat on a stool, raised his hands and said, "I'll do it, I'll do it. I want to eat dog whip, and I want to eat stir-fried pork kidneys."

Zhang Xuan, "..."

Lao Deng seemed to be used to it and laughed heartily.

Qian Shili smiled and said, "I have dog whips in my collection for you, but you have to buy pork kidneys now. I don't know if they are still in stock at this time."
