kiss you at sunset

Chapter 25 Starscream

Zhou Shiluo didn't know whether Tan Cui forgot to take his mobile phone or didn't want to take it at all.All in all, she'd won just by taking the charger away.

Although the old lady met her grandson for the first time, she loved her grandson from the bottom of her heart. This is probably what the so-called next-generation relative meant.She just heard Zhou Shiluo ask if there was a charger, and then went out to ask the neighbors from house to house.

In the end, she actually borrowed one.

Zhou Shiluo charged the phone excitedly, and the power on the screen was gradually increasing, from 11.00% to [-]%.

And the mood also went from the excitement at the beginning to the loss now. He suddenly thought that he didn't have to live for a long time, and the charger was not his own after all, so he was embarrassed to always bother others.Besides, he is penniless now, and the mobile phone arrears are also a big or small problem.

The old lady was his relative, but Zhou Shiluo was very unwilling to ask her for money.

According to Tan Cui, the old man died when he was very young. These years, the old lady lived alone in the country, and occasionally did odd jobs with others to earn pocket money.

Although Tan Cui sent money a lot these years, Zhou Shiluo looked at the facilities in the house, and he guessed that the money old lady should not have moved a cent.

Then he can't move.

So the moment the phone was turned on, Zhou Shiluo took out a stationery bag from his bag, which he threw into his schoolbag after finishing the college entrance examination two days ago.

He took out a pen from his bag, and wrote down several important contact numbers in the phone address book on the admission ticket.

After writing it down, I clicked on QQ again. I haven't read the news for a few days. There are already more than 30 people in the list of friend requests. Zhou Shiluo clicked to reject each one as usual.

After all the operations, he turned to the class group. He looked through the chat records for a while, and they were basically about going out for dinner.

The more Zhou Shiluo looked at it, the more troubled he became. He thought that he could still catch up with a few meals after staying for two or three days, but now it seems that the chances are slim.

At this time, when his friend Li Xu saw him online, he quickly sent a long series of text messages to accuse him: "Fuck, we agreed to discuss where to go together last night, but I didn't see you online all night after waiting for you, and you still didn't call me." Shut down? I've already thought about it, and if I can't contact you now, I'm going to your house to arrest someone."

Zhou Shiluo skillfully pressed the keyboard with his fingers, and conveyed: "The plan has failed, Dad, I have been imprisoned."

Before Li Xu could reply, he typed another series of numbers and informed him: "If you need me, call this number first."

Two minutes later, Li Xu on the other end didn't know if he was shocked, but suddenly there was no movement.

Zhou Shiluo typed in another question mark.

Two minutes later, the landline on the windowsill suddenly rang.

Zhou Shiluo walked over and took a look, and immediately recognized that it was Li Xu's number. He picked it up without saying a word, and was the first to say, "I asked you to contact me later, not now."

Li Xu on the other end of the phone directly ignored Zhou Shiluo's questioning, and said in an anxious and startled tone, "What happened?"

"It's okay," Zhou Shiluo sighed. Li Xu is his good friend and the only one who knows what happened to his family recently, so he simply doesn't intend to hide it from him.

"In order to prevent Zhou Chongde from finding me, my mother sent me to my grandmother's house in the countryside, and she will pick me up after school starts."

This reason made Li Xu completely unacceptable, and his temper burst out immediately, and he complained for him: "Your mother doesn't understand you yet, you won't be able to see anyone if you don't want to."

Zhou Shiluo didn't speak.

Li Xu had an idea, "Why don't you come to my house, give me the address, and I'll look for you."

Zhou Shiluo was really moved for a moment, but he calmed down soon.Li Xu's mother gave him a younger sister years ago, and now she's only seven or eight months old, so it's not suitable for him to live there for a long time.

"No, I'm fine here." Zhou Shiluo refused decisively.

Li Xu was a little dissatisfied, "Then why don't you go on a trip as promised? Then what should you do if you apply for the exam?"

Zhou Shiluo felt his heart sinking a little bit. He turned around and leaned against the window sill. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a shoe box on the kang.He looked over and realized that it was used by the old lady to hold tobacco leaves.

Before going to bed last night, he discovered that the old lady had the habit of smoking. In fact, Zhou Shiluo also smoked, but he only smoked cigarettes, which were different from the old tobacco leaves rolled by the old lady.

The smell of burning old tobacco leaves is stronger than that of cigarettes, and it is easier to choke people. Zhou Shiluo doesn't like it very much.

"May I ask you something?" Li Xu was a little impatient as he didn't wait for Zhou Shiluo to reply.

Zhou Shiluo withdrew his thoughts, "I'm applying for the exam here, as for traveling, let's make an appointment later."

The two fell into a sudden silence, and Zhou Shiluo couldn't even hear the sound of breathing on the other end.Until there was a muffled sound from the phone, as if something had hit the carpet, Zhou Shiluo subconsciously wanted to ask, but a series of beeping busy tones preempted him.

Li Xu hung up the phone.

Zhou Shiluo frowned, put down the microphone, and could tell with his toes that this person was probably angry again.

When I first met Li Xu, this person didn't have this problem, but after getting to know him gradually, some problems gradually appeared.But Zhou Shiluo couldn't tell clearly when it started to be "angry" about love, and what happened each time.

Anyway, he didn't like it.I feel that boys are chattering because of some trivial things, just like girls.

When the old lady entered the room, Zhou Shiluo was squatting on the ground playing with her mobile phone.

"Why don't you sit on the kang? What are you doing squatting?" The old lady walked to the cigarette box, took out the cigarette paper that was torn in advance, rolled the cigarette skillfully, put it to her mouth, and spit twice to fix it , and then picked up the match to light the cigarette.

The reason why Zhou Shiluo was squatting to play with his mobile phone was because the charging port was too far from the kang.Anyway, there was nothing to play, and his legs were numb from squatting, so Zhou Shiluo put down his phone and moved to the edge of the kang.

The old lady exhaled thick smoke, and within a short time, the room was surrounded by choking white smoke.Zhou Shiluo hesitated, and wanted to turn around and go out.

The old lady took it for granted, she called Zhou Shiluo to stop, and informed him while smoking a cigarette: "I'm going up the mountain tomorrow, you can play at home by yourself."

"Going up the mountain?" Zhou Shiluo paused, "What are you doing?"

The old lady coughed twice, "The old Zhang family in the backyard grows fungus, and there is a shortage of manpower."

Zhou Shiluo said "Oh", and asked subconsciously, "When will you be back?"

"I'll be back at night. I'll leave the food in the pot for you. You can just eat it when you get up." After speaking, he was a little uneasy, "Why don't you go with me?"

Zhou is the only time in Luo's 18 years of life that he has anything to do with mountains. One year, Li Xu insisted on organizing everyone to climb mountains like a convulsion.

As a result, before halfway up the climb, everyone started crying and calling their parents. Although Zhou Shiluo didn't say a word the whole time, he would never go climbing again after that.

He didn't know if the old lady's "up the mountain" was different from his "climbing the mountain", but he didn't want to try it just because of the words "planting fungus".

"I'd better stay at home." Zhou Shiluo refused resolutely, "Grandma, you should pay attention to yourself."

"What can I do all year round?" Just as the old lady finished speaking, there were a few angry roars outside the courtyard, followed by a cry.

"Sin, hit the child again."

Before Zhou Shiluo could react, he saw the old lady rushing out with a cigarette in her hand.He was stunned for a while, and felt that the cry was a little familiar, so he subconsciously followed it.

Zhou Shiluo looked for the crying, and he quickly stepped down the steps, startling the chickens and ducks in the yard to run away.

The yard of the old lady's house was only divided from the neighbor's by barbed wire. Through the gaps in the rough barbed wire, Zhou Shiluo saw Yang Jin who was sitting on the ground at a glance.The child tried hard to hold back his crying, trembling all over.

The old lady beside him stared viciously, with one hand on her hips and a stick in the other.

Suddenly, without reason, she raised the stick and hit Yang Jin's back, cursing, "What's the use of raising you?"
