don't cry

Chapter 41

Before the Chinese New Year, my partner and I bought all the necessities for the New Year together, and I took Du Wei to the mall to buy him new clothes.This is the habit of our family. We have to wear new clothes to celebrate the New Year.In the end, Du Wei insisted on making a fuss to buy it for me, so he went to more than 1000 in one go.

In the evening, Du Wei cooked a table of dishes and specially opened two bottles of beer.After we ate and drank, we snuggled together on the sofa and watched TV, with a brazier brought by Xiao Shen's brother under our feet.As soon as twelve o'clock passed, the firecrackers rang, and Fatty also called. He said hello to me, and asked how Du Wei and I were doing here.

On the day I saw Du Wei, I told him about it, and asked him and Li Zhuzhan Lingyun to inform him and report that he was safe.I immediately chatted with the fat man, saying that there is no heating in the south in winter, it is much colder than in the north, and I was sick two days ago.

The fat man asked me to pay attention to my body, and asked me if I had called my parents.

I was silent for a while, and asked, "You said that if I call my parents, will they hang up on me right away?"

"How can it be? Anyway, he is also his own son."

After I hung up Fatty's phone, I hesitated for a while, and then dialed the number.

I have really rolled over this number on the tip of my heart for countless times, but at this moment I feel uneasy again, regretting pressing the connect button.The phone was answered soon. I don't know if they have been waiting for my call. I feel a little sad when I think about it.

Of course, it may also be that I am self-indulgent, and I have made up too much.

Soon there was a feed, I didn't dare to speak, and the other side was silent, and then I heard my mother's voice hesitated, and asked with some hope: "Is it Xiaojian?"

At the end of the phone call, I really had to hold back my tears.The phone call lasted about thirty minutes, and it wasn't until late that I asked my mother to hang up and go to bed.

On the phone, my mother told me that my father is now at home, raising flowers and reading newspapers, which is much easier than before at work.The old man also looked away. He used to value face more than anything else. In fact, people didn't take your family's affairs seriously at all. Let them talk if they like to talk.

My mother sighed again and asked me where I was now and when I would go back to see them.The matter between me and Du Wei, my father probably doesn't care about it so much, and my mother is also thinking about it, let me live what kind of life I like, as long as I don't commit crimes, and I can live up to my conscience become.

I was a little choked up, and I kept Du Wei behind my back so that he wouldn't see it. I told my mother that I would go back to see them in two years, and if they agreed, I would take Du Wei to see them together.

After the phone call, I leaned on the sofa and sighed, Du Wei was also on the phone, as if he was chatting with Zhan Lingyun.I grabbed the remote control and changed a few channels, all of which were broadcasting the Spring Festival Gala. I finally switched back to the central channel, grabbed a handful of peanuts and ate them against Du Wei.

After Du Wei finished making calls, he entered another one, and the voice sounded like his younger brother's.Du Wei hung up the phone after a skit was performed.I leaned on his thigh, peeled a peanut and stuffed it into his mouth, and asked him, "Are you homesick?"

"This is home." Du Wei opened his mouth and swallowed the peanut.

The next day we woke up quite late, had breakfast and lunch together, and then went to Xiao Shen's house to give him New Year's greetings.We don't know each other well here, so only Xiao Shen can walk around.

Xiao Shen's younger sister also came back from the winter vacation. She is quite handsome. I have to say that southern girls are delicate.When we went, Xiaoshen's mother was trying to find a partner for him. Xiaoshen said it was still early, and his mother was so anxious that he dragged Du Wei and me to complain about him, and asked us if we had a partner.

I didn't know until Xiaoshen's mother told me that Xiaoshen will be 26 this year. I really can't tell that he is actually the same age as Du Wei.In fact, I think Xiao Shen and Du Wei are quite similar, they both have a younger brother and a younger sister.Xiao Shen dropped out of school back then to work in other places, and Du Weiwei also had a very hard time in his childhood, taking care of his younger siblings in everything.It was Du Wei who was taken away by the Du family later, and now we live in poverty with me. Xiao Shen doesn't have that kind of background, and now he is a manager of a shopping mall, and he should start a family.

With such a comparison, I think Du Wei's family background is really deceitful.If he was still growing up in Zhao's family, he would be much better than he is now if he graduates from university and finds a job.

I sat with Du Wei for a while and then left.On the fifth day of the lunar new year, Xiaoshen and his younger brother asked us out again to eat dog meat together in a restaurant.Xiao Shen and Liu Tao are also here. The content of our chat can be summarized as looking back at the past and looking forward to the future.

In the end, Liu Tao was really short-sighted, and said directly: "My past is the past of a bachelor, so in the next year, I must find myself a husband."

Xiao Shen's younger brother presumably also knew about him, and his expression was quite calm.Xiao Shen asked Liu Tao, "What about your mother?"

"My mother doesn't care about me, don't say I've found a man, even if I've found a sow, she won't bother."

We all laughed when we heard it.Although it is pitiful that Grandma Liu Tao does not love her uncle, but it is not without envy.

Xiao Shen's younger brother went to the bathroom at this time, Xiao Shen asked Du Wei: "What about you, what are you going to do next year?"

"I majored in mechanical engineering in college, but the place is small and I don't have many places to use. I plan to find another job to practice first."

Xiao Shen thought for a while and asked him, "Can you drive?"

"Yes, I have a driver's license, what's wrong?"

"My uncle is in the freight business. If you can drive, you can get a truck to do it with him. It's hard work, but it's still quite profitable."

Du Wei also became interested, and asked him: "You have to get a lot of news about this, and you have a lot of contacts, and you have to have a good relationship with the manufacturer..."

"Don't worry about this. My uncle runs the freight information department. He knows where there are goods to be shipped. You have to pay for a truck yourself. I suggest you don't buy a new car. Buy a second-hand one. The depreciation rate is low. At that time, if you don’t want to run freight, you can sell the car again.”

I know a little about the work of doing freight, and it is very hard. I was a little afraid that Du Wei's health would not be able to bear it, so I said hesitantly: "This work is hard, Du Wei's health is just a little better..."

Xiao Shen glanced at me with a smile, and said: "Then think about it for yourself, but Xiao Jiang, it's not like you hurt people so much, you hold it in your hand for fear of falling, and keep your mouth in your mouth for fear melted."

I smiled embarrassedly, and I was very grateful to Xiao Shen in my heart. Du Wei and I were here, and he took care of me a lot.

At this time, Xiao Shen's younger brother came back, so we didn't continue this topic.

At the end of the month, the landlord came to collect the rent. I clicked and found that after deducting the 3000 I saved, there were only more than [-] left.I don't even know how we spent it. It feels like we didn't buy much. Why did the money disappear all of a sudden?

But fortunately, it's time for me to pay my salary, so I won't run out of food.

Du Wei discussed it with me, and he still plans to do freight with Xiao Shen and his uncle.I couldn't persuade him, so I could only ask Xiao Shen for help, and asked him to pick a car in better condition for Du Wei.

Xiao Shen didn't know much about this, so he asked his uncle to help Du Wei take a look.So we invited his uncle to have a meal, because we had to keep things a secret from Du Wei, so it was not easy to get too close to Du Wei outside. I didn't go to that meal, so we let Du Wei go.After they ate, they went directly to the second-hand car market to look at the cars.

When Du Wei came back, he told me that they had taken a fancy to a car. The car was in good condition, with no accidents or collisions. The body was new, with annual inspection and transfer of ownership included.I also thought it was pretty good, and I was very glad that I just left 4 yuan for Du Wei.

When they went to pick up the car, I followed.Xiao Shen's uncle was very cautious, so he invited a knowledgeable friend over to look at it.His friend is in his thirties and his surname is Xu. It is said that he has been in the second-hand car business for many years, and only quit the business two years ago.In the end, the eldest brother surnamed Xu glanced at the car, asked about the condition of the car, the accident, and the price, then turned around and dragged Xiao Shen's uncle to talk.We were also at a loss, not knowing what this person saw.

After a while, Uncle Shen came over, took us a little further away, and then said: "Xu Cun'an told me just now, you'd better not buy this car."

"how?"

"He thinks it's a deck car. Of course, he doesn't have any evidence, just his intuition, but my old friend's intuition is quite accurate."

I was dubious, maybe Xu Cunan had something on his mind, trying to fool us not to buy it, and then he bought the car in private, and it cost thousands of dollars when it changed hands.But this person is Uncle Shen's friend, we don't want to think too much about it, we still want to believe him.

Du Wei opened his mouth and said, "For a car with a license plate, you can go to the online vehicle management registration office to check it based on the license plate."

Uncle Shen said openly: "Xu Cun'an also meant the same thing, you'd better check it out, lest you will lose a lot if you buy a set car."

We asked someone to check it for help, and it turned out to be a black car with a deck.Both Du Wei and I had lingering fears. Fortunately, Xu Cun'an reminded me, otherwise the 4 yuan we saved with great difficulty would be in vain.

After such a toss about buying a car, we were a lot more cautious. Uncle Shen told us that if we are at ease, we can ask Xu Cun'an to take a look.

Xu Cun'an is an expert, so we naturally have nothing to worry about. This time, we accepted Xu Cun'an's favor, so we wanted to treat him to a meal. Xu Cun'an was also polite, and said to show us the car first, and the matter will be done. Well, it's never too late to eat.

After looking at it for a few days, I fell in love with a car, 5 yuan, relatively new, not driven much, and in good condition, no accidents or collisions, Xu Cunan also said that this car is good.

The problem is that the family will not have enough money in this way. Adding my salary and the money for Du Wei’s medicine, the total is only 900 yuan. One press.

In the end, Xu Cun'an said, or just get 500 yuan, and he will help with the annual inspection of the transfer without the car owner intervening.The owner of the car was also in a hurry to spend money, so he agreed, and sold it for 500 yuan, so we still have a balance of 400 yuan.

After Du Wei ran for so many days, his body couldn't take it anymore. I also felt sorry for him and asked him to rest at home for a while. On the day of the transfer, I happened to take a rest, so I went with Xu Cun'an.

At that time, we went there after lunch, but when we went, we found that there were already many car owners waiting for the transfer.I was quite puzzled, so I asked Xu Cun'an: "This is not a special day, why are there so many people?"

What's even more strange is that the two traffic policemen who handled the transfer procedures didn't seem very busy. Some car owners went to ask for the procedures, but they were excused by saying that they were busy or something, and asked them to continue to wait.

When we asked for formalities in the past, the traffic police said the same thing, let us wait a while, people are busy at the moment.Xu Cun'an and I were waiting on the side. At this time, a middle-aged man walked in. He seemed to be quite familiar with the two traffic policemen, and he went through the formalities as soon as he came.

At this time, some car owners were dissatisfied, and they argued with the traffic police with a blushing face and a thick neck. A group of people quarreled around there for a while, and the traffic police became angry and shouted: "I won't do it for you today. If you are not satisfied, go and complain." me!"

I thought to myself, who is this person so arrogant.

Xu Cun'an looked at it for a while, then dragged me out of the hall to bask in the sun.I asked Xu Cun'an: "What should I do? The attitude of the two traffic policemen is too bad."

Xu Cun'an glanced at me and said with a smile: "Haven't you seen it? The middle-aged man who was handed over by the traffic police is an intermediary who specializes in handling the transfer procedures. We call them scalpers, and the scalpers handle the procedures on behalf of the agents. It’s a traffic policeman, so the traffic policeman doesn’t transfer the ownership of ordinary cars, just hope they all go to scalpers to handle the formalities on their behalf.”

When he mentioned this, I suddenly realized that there is such a way in it.

Xu Cun'an laughed and said, "Didn't they ask us to make a complaint, then we will make one complaint."
