Trivial Skin of Rebirth

Xiang Xiaolong was very young and was about to go to bed at nine o'clock in the evening, so Xiang Qingtian also went to bed early.He usually didn't go to bed so early, so he didn't feel sleepy when he got to bed, so he chatted with Xiang Xiaolong.

"Xiaolong, little uncle bought you sweets when you were young, don't you remember?"

Xiang Xiaolong shook his head slightly.

Said to Qingtian: "Little heartless!"

Xiang Xiaolong puffed his face, but said nothing.

Xiang Qingyun asked a bunch of questions, such as whether Xiaolong's grades are good now, how much pocket money Xiang Qingyun gave him every week, etc. Xiang Xiaolong was quite sleepy, but he tried to answer them vigorously.

Xiang Qingtian asked Xiang Xiaolong again: "Is Ye Jiawen treating you well?"

Xiang Xiaolong said: "Uncle Ye is very kind to me."

Xiang Qingtian shook his head, felt a lot of sympathy for himself, and touched Xiaolong's head: "What a poor child."

Xiang Xiaolong was very confused, and Baozi's face wrinkled even more: "Poor?"

Xiang Qingtian hesitated to speak for a long time, and said: "Forget it, you are still a child, it's better that you don't know some things."

Xiang Xiaolong was very puzzled, he thought that since Xiang Qingtian didn't want to talk about it, he wouldn't ask, besides, he was already very sleepy, and he fell asleep after closing his eyes for a while.

Early the next morning, Ye Jiawen offered to send Xiang Xiaolong to school and let Xiang Qingyun take care of his younger brother Xiang Qingtian.On the way to school, Ye Jiawen asked Xiang Xiaolong: "Did your little uncle tell you anything last night?"

Xiang Xiaolong replied obediently: "Little uncle said that I am pitiful."

Ye Jiawen was furious immediately, suppressing his anger and asked, "Why do you say you are pitiful?"

Xiang Xiaolong shook his head: "He didn't say anything."

Ye Jiawen was so angry that he had a dark face all the way to send Xiang Xiaolong to elementary school. Children are very sensitive. He sensed Ye Jiawen's emotions and became more obedient. He didn't say a word all the way.At the school gate, Xiang Xiaolong took the initiative to pull Ye Jiawen's hand: "Uncle Ye is very kind to me."

Ye Jiawen asked him: "Your little uncle said I treated you badly?"

Xiang Xiaolong hesitated for a moment, then shook his head lightly: "He asked me if Uncle Ye was treating me well."

Ye Jiawen calmed down, touched his head, patted his schoolbag, and let him go in for class.

When Ye Jiawen came home at night, he saw Xiang Qingyun and Xiang Qingtian were there.Xiang Qingyun discussed with Ye Jiawen: "I took him to see a nearby hotel today. Even a youth hostel would cost dozens of nights. He wants to stay often, so he has to find a place to live with us. It’s not good either. He hasn’t found a job yet, so staying in a hotel is not an option. Don’t we have a house for rent, I want him to live there first.”

Ye Jiawen said: "But that house has been rented out to a couple, you want to drive them out?"

Xiang Qingyun said: "Tomorrow I will discuss it with other people's family. Isn't that room two bedrooms and one living room? They are a couple. I see if we can discuss asking them to give Qingtian a room and reduce the rent by more than half." point. If they agree, it will be settled, and if they don’t agree, I will think of other ways.”

Ye Jiawen was not happy, but he couldn't drive Xiang Qingtian out either.He pulled Xiang Qingyun aside and asked him, "What about after he finds a job?"

Xiang Qingyun sighed with a complicated expression: "I know you don't like him, and I know what you're worried about. But now that he's here, and he's my younger brother, our family has a lot of houses. Anyway, I can't ignore it. Him."

Ye Jiawen directly said to Xiang Qingyun: "Xiaolong told me this morning, when he was sleeping last night, he told Qingtian that he was very pitiful!"

Xiang Qingyun frowned, feeling a little dissatisfied, and said in a low voice: "So I can't let him live with us. But I'm his brother, so I can't let him go."

Ye Jiawen said to him: "I'll tell you the truth. It's not that I don't like your brothers and sisters. Your sister is a very good person. But your brother's character is not good. If you want to help him, you really should Yes, but I hope you have principles."

Xiang Qingyun said: "I will."

At night, Xiang Qingyun took Xiang Qingtian out, and first found him a hotel to stay.Xiang Qingyun didn't want to stay with Xiang Qingyun, fearing that he would say something bad to Xiang Xiaolong, and Xiang Qingtian didn't want to stay either. When he thought of two homosexuals in the room, he felt that the air was filled with weird Virus, uncomfortable.

Xiang Qingyun sent Xiang Qingtian to the hotel, and Xiang Qingtian said to him: "Brother, please lend me 2000 yuan first."

Xiang Qingyun asked him: "What do you want 2000 yuan for?"

Xiang Qingtian was taken aback, and said, "I don't have a job now, and I have to spend money on food and drink."

Xiang Qingyun asked him again: "How much money did you bring here?"

Xiang Qingtian didn't expect that Xiang Qingyun would ask so many questions, and he said helplessly, "Here, I only bring one thousand."

Xiang Qingyun said: "You come to S City to work to earn money to support your wife and children, so you have to save some money and find ways to earn more money. You have 1000 yuan, which should be enough for any emergency. Come to me again when you have difficulties. I will provide you with a place to live, but you are such an adult, you have to rely on yourself for everything.” After thinking for a while, he said, “When you are looking for a job, you can’t be too tired or too hard. Everyone does it like this. Yes, you have to work hard to achieve the above. If you need me, I will help you."

Xiang Qingtian was dumbfounded by what he said.He knew that his elder brother had changed, but he didn't expect his elder brother to change so thoroughly and so unkindly, it was chilling.

The next day, Xiang Qingyun actually went to find the tenant, and discussed with the young couple about letting out a room.The young couple are both college students who have just graduated. It was a bit difficult to pay the rent. I was thinking about finding someone to share the rent. The landlord agreed after saying that they didn’t have much struggle. The rent was 1800 yuan before he was willing to give up half of the room.This can be regarded as a temporary change of mind by Xiang Qingyun when doing business, and he should have suffered a bit, so he had no choice but to agree.

Xiang Qingtian has endured a lot of hardships in these years, and his temperament has been tempered. In fact, he has changed a lot compared to the previous two years.Coupled with Xiang Qingyun's unwillingness to spoil him, he can only rely on himself.Only when people lose their support can they truly grow, so Xiang Qingtian really found a job in a restaurant and started working.It's just that he still has Xiang Qingyun's help in this job, he can find some small restaurants by himself, and Xiang Qingyun asked a friend to find him a job as a waiter in a big restaurant.Serving plates and ordering dishes for others, the basic salary is [-] yuan a month, and there are bonuses for good work.Xiang Qingtian's accommodation is paid by Xiang Qingyun, and his meals are covered by restaurants. He doesn't have much money left to spend. The money is considered a net profit, which is not bad.

Xiang Qingtian found a job and had a place to live, so he didn't come to Ye Jiawen's house very often.Although Ye Jiawen said that because he lost 1000 yuan a month in income, he still held the big property firmly in his hands anyway, out of sight and out of mind, so he took the money for charity.For a while, everyone was in peace.

For Ye Jiawen, Xiang Qingtian's coming was considered a bad thing, but when bad things happen, good things follow.Ye Jiawen received a long-awaited call. It can be said that a huge pie was hit on the face. Compared with this, Xiang Qingtian's place can be regarded as sesame seeds that people can ignore!

This happened like this. The staff of the city's house expropriation department approached Ye Jiawen and wanted to talk to him about compensation for the demolition.The original site of the apartment he saved with his private money was going to be a new subway line, so the old house was going to be demolished, and the person responsible for the demolition had to compensate the owner of the property rights.The demolition is a great thing. Ye Jiawen bought this apartment because he chose the location on purpose. He knew that next year the subway should be built in this place, so he bought it here on purpose.

The people from the demolition office proposed to Ye Jiawen that there are two types of compensation, one is monetary compensation, and the other is property rights replacement. The area of ​​the replaced new house is about ten square meters larger than his current house.Ye Jiawen didn't agree, and the people who hung them up planned to delay talking for a while.The longer the demolition is delayed, the easier it will be to raise the price, and it does not necessarily have to be delayed for the sake of being a nail household. Anyway, the price can go up if it is endured again.

Xiang Qingtian worked honestly for a month, and got a salary of 100 yuan, and a bonus of more than [-] yuan.After he took the money, he asked Xiang Qingyun to go out for a drink, and Yi Bo Yuntian said: "Brother, this time I invite you!"

Xiang Qingyun is also very happy, he is so grown up, almost 30 years old, this is the first time he heard that Xiang Qingtian wanted to invite him to take a class, so he went there after work, called Ye Jiawen and asked him to take the class with him. Xiang Xiaolong went out to dinner by himself.

Xiang Qingtian asked Xiang Qingyun to go to a Sichuan restaurant that was not bad, and Xiang Qingyun was a little surprised when he entered the door: "You only earn a little money, just find a small stall, the consumption here is not cheap, two people can eat Hundred."

Xiang Qingtian said proudly: "It's okay, how much does it cost to eat a meal, brother, don't save me, just let go of eating and drinking! I eat in that restaurant every day, and I am tired of the sweet dishes in the book." , It’s time for a change today!”

Entering the door and sitting down, Xiang Qingtian took the menu and stuffed it into Xiang Qingyun's hand without opening it: "Brother, order, order whatever you like."

Xiang Qingyun didn't know whether to laugh or cry.This restaurant is not cheap, but it is not very expensive if it is said to be expensive, with an average of 40 yuan per dish. Xiang Qingtian's battle seems to be eating abalone and sea cucumber.But he was already very happy that his younger brother was able to treat him, so he ordered two vegetarian dishes and one meat dish, and ordered two bowls of rice.Xiang Qingtian thought he ordered too little, so he ordered another boiled fish.He said to the waiter: "Bring four more bottles of Ice Pure!"

The waiter said: "Sorry, we don't have Bingchun here, only Qingdao and Budweiser."

Xiang Qingtian said: "Then take Qingdao, and bring up four bottles first!"

After a while, the dishes and wine were brought up, Xiang Qingtian first filled a glass of wine for Xiang Qingyun, then poured it for himself, and raised his glass: "Brother, I respect you."

Xiang Qingyun hastily got up the glass and clinked glasses with him, Xiang Qingtian was very forthright, he drank the glass of wine before eating the food.Seeing that he killed him, Xiang Qingyun was embarrassed to appear insincere, so he quickly followed suit.

After finishing the cup, Xiang Qingyun asked him: "How much salary did you get this month?"

Xiang Qingtian said: "Damn, I won't be angry if you don't tell me. The owner of our restaurant is like a pickpocket. I worked for him like a beast for a month. I worked hard for a day. He gave I only gave me a bonus of 150 yuan when I was counting the money! Two women stood there talking and joking every day, and the guests ignored their calls, so he gave me a bonus of [-] yuan! What an idiot!"

Xiang Qingyun said: "Okay, don't worry about others, just take care of yourself. How much do you earn a month in the county?"

Xiang Qingtian said: "It's 2000 yuan a month."

Xiang Qingyun sighed: "Actually, you are at this age, you have a wife and children, and I don't understand why you don't stay at home with your wife and children, but come to S City to work. You are a clerk in the county, right? Here, I have no academic qualifications, no household registration, and no special skills, so I can only do the tiring work of serving dishes. You spend 2000 yuan there, and you can’t get more than [-] yuan here. The consumption in the county town is not a little bit lower than this. , why should you?"

Xiang Qingtian said angrily: "It's not my fucking bitch! That woman is nothing, I am you, you would rather suffer here than go back and see her face!"

Xiang Qingyun frowned slightly: "You are a husband and wife after all, if it is because of a quarrel, it would be even more wrong for you to come here. There are conflicts that need to be communicated and resolved. Don't you go back for the rest of your life? Your child is still young, and Liu Sha is alone It's hard work to take care of."

Xiang Qingtian waved his hand despondently: "Don't mention it, those girls are all bad guys, the little bastard only listens to his mother at home, and doesn't pay attention to me at all. When I talk to him, he dares to talk back to me, and even dares to yell at me." I was fighting with his mother, and he helped his mother take the broom and beat me! Fuck! I wonder if this bastard is mine!"

Xiang Qingyun was a little surprised: "You still fight with Liu Sha? Why are you so good at beating women?"

Spit to Qingtian: "I spanked, it was her who spanked me! That bitch's paws are like tigers, and when she stretched out her hand, there are five blood marks on my face! Women are nothing!"

Xiang Qingyun had no choice but to persuade him to find a way to make up for it. After having children, life must go downhill, and it is useless to avoid it.

Xiang Qingtian drank a lot of wine, ate some side dishes, and suddenly lowered his voice and asked Xiang Qingyun: "Brother, why did you suddenly act like that with a man?"

Xiang Qingyun smiled faintly: "It's not sudden. I used to have a good impression of male classmates when I was in middle school, but when I met Ye Jiawen, I just...it's innate, there's nothing I can do about it." He raised his glass and took a sip Sip wine.

Said to Qingtian: "Brother, it's not me who said, how do you two men live? There is a woman who can still manage the housework at home, and two big men, who is in charge of the family? Who will control the money? If one day, Ye Jiawen took the money and ran away, you don't even need to divorce, you have to take care of the child alone, the child is not your own..."

Xiang Qingyun said: "If it's not my own, I'll treat him as my own. Ye Jiawen is not this kind of person, we don't have to support anyone, we live our lives, we just discussed it. Besides, if you didn't say it just now, women are nothing Is it?"

Xiang Qingyun frowned, pursed his mouth, and looked worried: "Brother, you have a good temper since you were a child, so it's fine if you want to find a woman, and you find a man to live... You said you can't like women, then There's no other way, but that Ye Jiawen looks like a formidable character, won't you take advantage of him?"

Xiang Qingyun said: "Living together, there is nothing to suffer or not to suffer. Aren't I living a good life now?"

Xiang Qingtian wrinkled his nose and looked disapproving: "You are really honest, but you are too honest. You have been bullied outside, and you always suffer. You are honest, and Ye Jiawen is so honest? Who bought your house? What if he doesn't go with you?"

Xiang Qingyun was very upset.He knows that his family members can't understand his feelings, and it's fine if they don't understand, as long as they don't interfere, but Xiang Qingtian obviously wants to interfere, not only telling Xiang Xiaolong something, but now telling him these things, is it provoking Divorce?

Xiang Qingyun put a chopstick of boiled fish into his bowl: "Okay, you don't have to worry about me, I know what to do. Eat vegetables, eat vegetables."

Seeing that Xiang Qingyun refused to talk about this topic, Xiang Qingtian felt a little resentful, and dragged the topic back several times, only to be dismissed lightly by Xiang Qingyun.

After eating, he shouted boldly to Qingtian: "Waiter, pay the bill!"

The waiter brought over the bill and looked at Qingtian, the two of them actually ate almost two hundred.They ordered four bottles of beer at first, and then ordered three more bottles. A bottle of beer cost ten yuan, and the wine alone cost 70 yuan.

Xiang Qingtian suddenly stretched his face: "Ten yuan for a bottle of Qingdao? We'll only pay two or three yuan. The things in S City are selling too much!"

Xiang Qingyun saw that his face was not good-looking, and said: "Forget it, I will pay the bill today, and next time you invite me, just eat something cheap."

Xiang Qingtian said: "That's impossible, I said treat, I'll come!" Xiang Qingyun had already put his hand into his trouser pocket to pay, and Xiang Qingtian also put his hand into his pocket, shouting: "I'll come, I'll come! "After digging for a long time, I didn't take out anything.

Xiang Qingyun took out his wallet, took out 200 yuan, and pulled out Xiang Qingtian's empty hand from his pocket, pushing towards Qingyun's hand: "Hey, take it back, take it back, that's okay, I'll invite you if you agree."

Xiang Qingyun smiled and said: "Okay, thank you for your kindness, you are different from before, I can see that. I will pay for this meal, and you can treat me next time."

Xiang Qingtian didn't push him, and finally invited Qingyun for the meal.
