The Tight Embrace of the End Times

There are three upper rooms and three lower rooms in the two-story building of Gu Leng’s house. Grandpa used to live downstairs on the left hand side, with the stairs behind and the bathroom behind. Gu Leng lived upstairs. Now that his grandfather is gone, neither is Gu Leng. Thought about moving down, grandpa's room is still the same, Gu Leng has three sticks of incense every day, as long as Gu Leng is at home, there will be green smoke wafting out of Gu's house all the year round.

On the first night when he came back, Gu Leng didn't want to do anything, he just wanted to miss, and fell asleep in the nostalgia.

Gu Leng slept until dawn the next day, felt it for a while, and felt that the temperature had risen again. He took out his mobile phone and checked. Sure enough, it was 33 degrees. It is reasonable to say that it is the end of summer, and the temperature should not be so high. Gu Leng Sighing, the signs of the end times are already obvious, and the temperature may get higher and higher in the future.

There was a lot of noise outside, Gu Leng pushed open the window and looked into the distance, only to see a lot of people on the grain drying field in the distance, and there was a loudspeaker spreading the long voice: "The grain has been harvested, and the grain has been harvested at a high price...".

Gu Leng went to the grain drying field to watch with the onlookers. The villagers in Gujia Village seldom sold grain. After all, the village chief had a special meeting to talk about it last night, and the grain harvesters saw that no one sold the grain, so they changed the price again. [-]% higher.

Although the rural people are simple, no one is a fool. The higher the price, the less the villagers dare to sell. There are disasters in many places, and the whole country is short of food." The big truth.

The villagers "coaxed" them to disperse, went back to call their relatives and friends one after another, and then went to the town to buy. They did not dare to take what the village chief said last night lightly, and put them into action one after another.

Gu Leng also went to the town to buy food, after all, everyone knew that Gu Leng didn't farm land, so Gu Leng had to put on a show.

Gu Leng parked the car at the gate of the largest supermarket in the town, got out of the car and took a closer look at the town.

Although I haven't been here for a year or two, the changes are really great!

There is actually a limited amount of grain, oil, rice and noodles in the supermarket, so Gu Leng had no choice but to buy one and pull it to the side of the car with a shopping cart.

"Gu, Gu Leng, are you Gu Leng?"

Gu Leng was pulling the trunk when suddenly someone greeted him beside him.Gu Leng took a closer look at this person, and saw that this person was tall, with a visual estimate of 185. Gu Leng himself was 178. This person looked half a head taller than Gu Leng, with wheat-colored skin, handsome sunshine, firm eyes, and deep memory This is what happened to a young boy in the office.

"Xiao Qiao, long time no see, why are you here? I remember your home is in the county seat?" Gu Leng remembered that this person was Xiao Qiao, his high school classmate, it would be hard to forget, Gu Leng thought to himself.

"I haven't lived in the county seat for a long time. I live in the town now. Are you also here to buy?"

"Well, the price of food is so high now, buy more food and save it."

"Gu Leng, save as much as you can," Xiao Qiao said with a serious face.

I haven't seen Xiao Qiao for six or seven years, Xiao Qiao said these words to Gu Leng, which warmed Gu Leng's heart.Also really laughed.

"Gu Leng, I live in the neighborhood behind the supermarket, let's have a cup of tea together?"

"No need Xiao Qiao, I have to transport these things home. I just came back yesterday, and the house hasn't been cleaned yet. I still have a lot of things to buy. If time permits, I have to make a few more trips. I can't buy them in the town. When I arrive, I will go to the county to buy, and you should make more preparations, prepare all the things you can imagine." Gu Leng bought all the things he needed, and Gu Leng deliberately accelerated his speech. On the one hand, it deepened Xiao Qiao's sense of urgency to stock up on food, so that he could make more preparations, on the other hand, Gu Leng really didn't want to be a guest in other people's homes——Gu Leng hated being a guest.

"Just right, I'm going to the county seat tomorrow, let's go together then!" Xiao Qiao invited.

"OK".

Xiao Qiao helped Gu Leng pack the things he bought before waving away.

Xiao Qiao was Gu Leng's classmate when he was in school in the county, and also the monitor of their class. He was excellent in character and learning, and was a man of the hour in their high school.Xiao Qiao has always taken good care of Gu Leng, and what happened later, Gu Leng was particularly impressed by him.

At that time, it was the third year of high school. In the first semester of the third year of high school, Xiao Qiao suddenly stopped going to school. Gu Leng asked the teacher to find out that Xiao Qiao was sentenced to two years in prison for intentionally hurting someone.

Later, Gu Leng heard the ins and outs and the truth of the story from other students.

Xiao Qiao's family has three sons, and he is the second. Otherwise, how can there be a saying: the emperor loves the eldest son, and the common people love the youngest son.Xiao Qiao is excellent in everything, but his parents don't care about him the least.It is said that Xiao Qiao's father is a good hand in business and can walk sideways in the county.Xiao Qiao's brother, Xiao Cheng, just provoked the outsider, broke his head, sent him to the hospital for more than a dozen stitches, and couldn't escape after a concussion. The money was stolen, and the person who injured him must be sent to prison.

Xiao Cheng refused to go, and Xiao Qiao's mother also protected her, but this matter must be resolved by someone, so their family members turned their attention to Xiao Qiao. It is said that Xiao Qiao's mother knelt down to Xiao Qiao. Xiao Qiao's mother forced her to die, and Xiao Qiao finally went to jail instead of his brother.

Xiao Qiao's parents gave a lot of money to the outsider who was an official in the family, and Xiao Qiao was imprisoned, so the other party agreed to this matter.

Afterwards, Xiao Qiao's family moved, and Xiao Qiao served his sentence alone in the city prison. The students all lamented about this.

The world is impermanent, and Gu Leng has never seen Xiao Qiao again for six or seven years since then, until today.
