Gold Class Fighter

The next day was New Year's Eve.

The snow that fell a few days ago added atmosphere to Jiang Hai's year.On the day of the New Year's Eve, it was a fine day. Under the clear sunshine, the streets were full of happy people carrying new year's goods. People rushed home from get off work early, and relatives gathered together lively, frying and frying, preparing for the night. A sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner.The children have long been counting the time, hoping that it will be dark before the fireworks can be set off.

On the side of the road are pickles washed and dried by the old people, and the air is filled with the smell of reunion.The entire Jianghai was enveloped in a strong New Year's Eve atmosphere.

When Yang Lei returned to his home in the military area, the house was also very lively. His younger brother Yang Rui had already arrived home the day before, and Yang Dahai and his wife seemed happy.Yang Datian's family is also there. Every New Year's Eve, the two families spend together.On New Year's Eve, Yang Dahai, as a provincial and municipal leader, has a busy schedule and has to go around to condolences, but this year's New Year's Eve dinner, he deliberately took time out to come back for dinner.

When Yang Lei returned home, it was almost dark.Both families are here, waiting for him.The nanny has almost prepared the dishes and went home to celebrate the New Year. Here, Yang Dahai and Yang Datian’s wife are busy cooking in the kitchen talking and laughing. Yang Rui is sitting in the living room with his father and uncle chatting. Yang Datian’s daughter is watching TV and giggling happily from time to time. straight smile.

The house is full of warmth.

The New Year's Eve dinner was very sumptuous, with a large table full.Yang Dahai was very interested, and even opened a bottle of Moutai that he had cherished for many years.

Although the food was rich, Yang Lei couldn't eat much.The night before, the military camp had a dinner party and drank to their heart's content. Drinking in the army is terrifying. There is a reason on the wine table. Don't challenge anyone who drinks with you, don't challenge the army or the police.A person like Yang Lei who is known as "Yang Yijin" was also overwhelmed by his own people. He never refused to come, was so drunk that he was escorted back to the dormitory without knowing it, and slept until the afternoon.Now facing a table of food, I don't have any appetite, so I stopped chopsticks after just a few mouthfuls.

It was still time for the news broadcast, and people started setting off firecrackers outside.

Yang Lei let his family eat slowly and smoked on the balcony.

Looking out from the balcony, thousands of lights are on, windows and windows are warm, and every kitchen exudes fragrance.

Tonight, every family is reunited.

Everyone is accompanied by the closest person, the person who loves the most.

After the meal, Yang Datian's wife invited everyone to play mahjong. Yang Lei watched them playing mahjong for a while, and didn't want to stay at home, so he said, "You guys play, I'll go out for a while."

"Where are you going, at the age of thirty, just stay at home and don't go out."

Yang Lei's stepmother really treats Yang Lei as her own son.

"Brother, it's rare for me to come back, and you still run outside."

Yang Rui hadn't had time to have a good talk with his brother.

"I just saw a few comrades in arms. They are in a restaurant in the city. I'll be back in a while."

Yang Lei said casually.

"You go to Fang Mei's house to have a look, you have to know the etiquette."

Yang Dahai asked.

Yang Lei didn't say anything, and went out, out of the military area.

Yang Lei just didn't want to stay at home, and didn't know where to go.

On the night of the New Year's Eve, there were very few people on the street, and they all went back to have a reunion dinner.Many shops were closed, only the sound of gongs and drums coming from the windows of every household as the Spring Festival Gala started and the joyful voice of the host.

Listening to the scattered sound of firecrackers, Yang Lei walked downstairs to the house on the eighth floor.He wanted to find a quiet place to stay, and came here without knowing it.

Yang Lei was about to go up to the platform on the second floor when he saw a familiar face.

"Guo Zi!"

Three young men were walking on the street facing them, with their hands in their trouser pockets, looking for restaurants everywhere.

"Brother Lei?"

Guo Zi saw Yang Lei's face clearly and exclaimed in surprise.

Guo Zi was Yang Lei's brother back then. At that time, he was only fifteen or sixteen, and he followed Yang Lei.He is small and has a sweet mouth, and he is also lovable. At that time, Yang Lei regarded him as a little brother and often took him with him. He and Fang Yu were also very familiar.Later, Fang Yu went to jail and Yang Lei went to school. After so many years, these little brothers did not know where they were.Suddenly met here, very surprised, pleasantly surprised.

"Brother Lei! I heard that you are an officer in the army, what a dick!"

Guo Zi still looks like a fool, and he still looks like a fool.

"What are you fooling around here?"

Yang Lei saw that there was no one else on the street, so the three of them were wandering around.

"Hey, isn't it [-] years old? My two buddies and I wanted to find a place to eat, but we walked three streets, and no shop was open! Fuck, I froze to death!"

Guo Zi stomped his feet.When Yang Lei saw their appearance, he knew that they had no money, and only big restaurants opened on New Year's Eve. It was not easy for poor people to find a cheap restaurant for a New Year's Eve dinner.

"Okay! Come with me."

Yang Lei felt uncomfortable, he couldn't see his brother in the past not even having a New Year's Eve dinner.

Guo Zi happily followed Yang Lei.Yang Lei went up to the eighth floor, and there were no big restaurants available at this point. He knew that there was a restaurant that had supper delivery on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day. It was cold and he didn't plan to run away. That one brought food and wine over.

Yang Lei took out the key and opened the door.

He entered the room, and before he turned on the light, he saw a man sitting up suddenly from the wire bed in the bedroom in the dark.

Yang Lei stopped.

The man didn't move either.

"Why don't you turn on the light, brother Lei?"

Guo Zi and two buddies followed in, and Guo Zi touched the switch on the porch.

light is on.

Guo Zi turned his face and saw the people in the room.

"...Brother Yu?!"

Fang Yu was dressed in black, and the sudden bright light made him uncomfortable, so he squinted his eyes.

"Why are you, Brother Yu! Didn't you go to the south? When did you come back?"

Guo Zilao was excited.He really didn't expect that on this eve, he would meet the two elder brothers from the past one after another.

"Guo Zi?"

Fang Yu also remembered him.

Fang Yu went to the south when he was released from the prison, and the gangsters in Jianghai knew about it.In the past three years, no one has seen Fang Yu come back. It is no wonder that Guo Zi was so surprised to see him here suddenly.But Guo Zi suddenly realized.

"You came back to see Brother Lei, right! Brother Lei, you are not mean enough, Brother Yu is here, and you didn't say anything just now!"

Guo Zi is a rough man, so he can't see anything unusual.

"..."

Neither Yang Lei nor Fang Yu said a word.

In such a sudden meeting, neither of them knew what to say.

They glanced at each other, averting their eyes.Fang Yu got out of bed and stood up.

"Brother Yu, why don't you turn on the air conditioner, it's cold enough!"

Guo Zi looked for the air conditioner with his arms crossed.

"You guys sit down first."

Yang Lei said, he looked around, but before he saw what he was looking for, Fang Yu had already opened the drawer of the bedside table, took out the remote control of the air conditioner inside, and handed it to him.

"..."

Yang Lei glanced at Fang Yu and took it.

He turned on the air conditioner.The cold room finally had some heating.

"Brother Yu, why haven't you changed at all, you're still so handsome!"

Guo Zixin was blunt.In the past, Fang Yu was a handsome guy who was famous among Jiang Hai’s thugs. Guo Zi heard people say that people who have been in prison have changed a lot when they come out. Unexpectedly, after seeing each other for many years, Fang Yu still looks the same as before, but his eyes are darker and his personality is more serious silence.

"Do you know who this brother Yu is? He is Fang Yu!! That is my elder brother Yang Lei!! I don't need to introduce these two people!"

Guo Zite was proud, and his tone was very arrogant.His two buddies are both young bastards who have just entered the Tao. The names of Fang Yu and Yang Lei are really legends to them, and they can only hear about their deeds from the old people in the world.Guo Zi is usually proud of being with these two people, and his mantra all day long is "I think back when I was with Brother Lei and Brother Yu..." These two young people did not expect to see a real person now, and they were both excited and nervous.

"Brother Yu! Brother Lei!"

The two young men called out quickly, and came up to pass cigarettes, looking at them with eyes full of admiration.

"Okay, we're not messing around anymore, what's the point of calling that?"

Yang Lei didn't ask for their cigarettes, and asked them to keep some rations for themselves.He wanted to take out his pocket, but Fang Yu had already thrown one, Guo Zi and the others gratefully caught it, Fang Yu paused, and threw it to Yang Lei as well.

Yang Lei stood at the door, far away from them.But when Fang Yu tossed it, Yang Lei habitually raised his hand to catch it, and he caught it in his hand.The tacit understanding is perfect, there is no mistake.

This is an action they have done many times, almost subconsciously, without thinking about it.

"..."

Yang Lei took the cigarette in his hand, did not light it, and was silent for a moment.

"have you eaten?"

He asked Fang Yu.

Fang Yu hesitated.

"Let's eat together, Brother Yu! We and Brother Lei didn't eat either!"

Guo Zi and the others were starving.

Yang Lei saw Fang Yu's expression, lowered his head, took out his cell phone, and called the fast food restaurant.

But Yang Lei didn't expect that the store would not give away this year, saying that there are few people this year, and it has already closed for the Chinese New Year.

"Then do you know where there is food?"

Yang Lei asked on the phone.He knew this one.

"I know a place, I'll go and have a look. You talk."

Fang Yu said, put on his coat, and walked out the door.

"……How do you go?"

Yang Lei hesitated for a moment and asked.Not even a taxi outside.There was no parking downstairs, Fang Yu's taxi should have returned his friend.

"I got a motorcycle, it's downstairs."

Fang Yu said.

"Where. I'll go."

Yang Lei was silent for a while and said.

The places Fang Yu knew a few years ago may not be there now.What's more, Jianghai's road has changed a lot in the past seven years, and Jianghai is not the same as before.

"Go in. I'll be right back."

Fang Yu said in a low voice, closed the door, and the sound of footsteps disappeared in the corridor...

Fang Yu had been there for a long time, and when he came back, he felt the cold air all over his body.Fang Yu took out a box of well-packed meals, and it was still steaming when he opened it. In order to keep warm, Fang Yu wrapped it in a coat, and he was only wearing a black sweater. After driving all the way, his hands were blue from the cold.

"Wow, kung pao chicken, ants climbing trees, sweet and sour pork ribs... and salted duck! Brother Yu, you are really good! Where did you get so many delicious dishes!"

Guo Zi was happy while opening the lid of the box.

Yang Lei looked at a table full of dishes.Everything is familiar.

Since joining the army, what is there in the cafeteria and what does Yang Lei eat.

He has forgotten what he liked to eat before.

Yang Lei didn't speak...
