Hot Kangtou

Chapter 2 Relying on Others for Relief

The countryside in the afternoon is always a little quiet, even the usually fierce dog is lying on the ground, limp and silent.The dude Zhou Cong had an unshaven beard and messy hair, which covered his eyes a bit, and his expensive clothes were all crumpled and smelled bad.

Zhou Cong has been in this poor village for almost a month, and he has an illusion that he is about to integrate into the village.

squeak--

There was the sound of a tricycle braking outside the door. Zhou Congteng stood up and looked out. He saw the dark and stupid man slowly pushing the car into the door. His heart, which had been restless all day, calmed down inexplicably. Seeing him again Liao Han always felt his heart beating faster.

"Why did you come back? What time is it? Are you trying to starve me to death?" He only knew Liao Han here, if Liao Han ran away, he would really be finished, so his tone was angry and anxious.

Liao Han pushed the tricycle in, listened to Zhou Cong's rambling, but did not refute, but said, "I'm looking for a job."

"How is your job search?" Zhou Cong asked unnaturally, and added at the end: "You probably won't find any good jobs like this."

"How come, I have already paid the deposit." Liao Han said with a rare smile on his face, "The wages are paid every day, so I will definitely not starve you."

"Deposit? What job requires a deposit?" Zhou Cong knew something was wrong as soon as he heard Liao Han's words. He frowned and asked.

"The man said that he had to pay 500 yuan to go through the entry procedures." Liao Han said seriously.

"Does your brain grow on the top of your head to show off your size?" Zhou Cong was furious when he heard it, and cursed: "What kind of job doesn't pay you wages and pays you back money? You are being cheated!"

Liao Han froze for a moment and said, "Impossible."

In fact, Liao Han had doubts when he handed over the money. Zhou Cong said this, and he felt uneasy. 500 yuan may be nothing to others. In this family, it is basically all the property.

"Is there any evidence? " Zhou Cong asked bitterly.

"No, no..."

Zhou Cong rolled his big eyes, with an expression on his face that you are hopeless.

"Or, I'll go back..."

"Come on, what time is it, I'm hungry."

"Okay, then I'll cook first." Liao Han rummaged through the kitchen cupboard, but couldn't find anything to eat. Then he remembered that there was no ration at home.

Zhou Cong followed into the room, threw ten yuan on the table, and said, "Go buy it."

"Didn't you eat at noon these two days?" Liao Han was busy with his mother's cremation yesterday and job hunting today. He gave Zhou Cong five yuan to buy food for himself, and he didn't think about Zhou Cong. Cong didn't eat lunch for two days.

"There's so much nonsense, you don't even know where the store is!"

Liao Han thought about it because he had neglected this point. He took ten yuan and forced Zhou Cong to go to the canteen together to find the way.

There was no road construction in the village, and when a gust of wind came over, Zhou Cong couldn't see the road ahead because of the flying dust. Zhou Cong still kept his mouth open and said, "Your broken roads here, you can eat dirt and eat your fill every time you go out." gone."

"Speak less," Liao Han said.

"You!" Zhou Cong opened his mouth, and there was another gust of wind, and the smell of earth in his mouth became stronger.

Zhou Cong closed his mouth with a deflated face, and stopped talking to Shitou.

Still a pitch-black stone!

"Little Liao," Uncle Ma from the commissary saw Liao Han hurried forward, patted the young man on the shoulder, and said some comforting words, "Don't be too sad when your mother is gone, life is still good."

"I know."

"This is..." Uncle Ma looked Zhou Cong up and down. The young man was handsome, but he was a little thin, his face was sallow, and he looked listless.

"This is my relative, a distant cousin." Liao Han didn't know how to introduce Zhou Cong, so he introduced him casually, and asked, "Master Ma, do you still have fresh vegetables? Ask for the cheapest ones. "

"It's all ordered, I'm about to close here, so don't dislike it," Uncle Ma gave Liao Han all the few vegetables left, and forced him two Chinese cabbages.

He only charged him three yuan for these things, Liao Han couldn't do it anyway, and Uncle Ma didn't agree, saying: "You can keep it if you don't buy it. If you don't buy it, I won't be able to sell it tomorrow."

"Then this cabbage..."

"You haven't planted the land for so long, you don't know, these are still farmed by the villagers. Last season, all the ones planted in our village were not sold, but it was cheap. No, this season I heard garlic It is expensive, and everyone has changed to garlic." Uncle Ma said.

"Then, thank you, Uncle Ma." Liao Han turned his head and looked at Zhou Cong who was beside him. He seemed to be much thinner than when he first came here. He wanted to replenish Zhou Cong's body, and said to Uncle Ma: " Uncle, let me buy two more eggs."

"Sure, white eggs are much more expensive than red ones to send to the city. I'll pick up a few for you." Uncle Ma picked up a few big ones with a bag, put them in the vegetable basket, and said, "Let's eat eggs." Farmers eat the same food, and this old hen gets the same feed, but the people in the city just like the white skin."

"Master, this is too much." Liao Han refused embarrassingly.

Zhou Cong stood behind him, he couldn't say anything other than rolling his eyes, and he didn't want it for nothing. Is this Liao Han really out of his mind?

"Just a few eggs, don't hold them back." Uncle Ma kept saying, Liao Han couldn't refuse, so he accepted the eggs.

On the way back, Liao Han didn't say a word. He felt a little depressed. He was a young and middle-aged guy, and he had to rely on the old man, Uncle Ma, for help.

"Why, hurt your self-esteem?" Back home, Liao Han lit a fire in the yard to cook dinner, while Zhou Cong sat under the eaves, watching the sunset with a straw in his mouth.

In the setting sun, a dark cloud like a city wall blocks part of the sun, which is unbelievably beautiful.

"I just feel useless." Liao Han drooped his face, looking a little disappointed, like a big dog.

"If your mother is still alive, looking at you like this, she probably has to die again." Zhou Cong spat out the grass in his mouth and cursed.

"You!" Liao Han blushed when he heard Zhou Cong's words, but he couldn't say a word.

"Me? What's wrong with me? Am I not telling the truth?"

Liao Han rarely showed a little anger on his face, but after thinking about Zhou Cong's words, what he said might be the truth.

In the first two years, Aunt Liao was still able to get out of bed. She ran away from home several times because of her illness and did not want to drag her son down, but Liao Han found them all.Later, I couldn’t move anymore. Seeing my son working several jobs and earning money to see a doctor and buy medicine for myself, the guilt in my heart grew day by day.

When he was dying, he held Liao Han's hand and kept saying that he was sorry, and he didn't even marry him a wife.Liao Han, a 1.8-meter-five-meter-tall man, couldn't care less about gold and not flicking after hearing this, and knelt down in front of his mother's hospital bed and began to cry.

Although his mother is gone, the heaviest burden is gone, but Liao Han has also lost his head. He used to work hard to earn money for his mother's life, but now he doesn't understand why he is alive.

"Don't look at me like that, I'm not afraid at all." Zhou Cong was also quick-mouthed for a while, Liao Han was really angry, but he was timid, he just stuck his neck and said: "Don't forget that you still owe me money! For 10 yuan, you don’t want to rely on a penny!”

"It's due to Uncle Zhou." Liao Han seriously corrected.

"My dad got involved, so you won't pay it back? Don't be dishonest in life."

Liao Han is the last straw for Zhou Cong. Not only is he penniless, but he also has no skills. Those cronies would like to avoid him, and they always run to his home, making relatives disappear.

Nothing else, Zhou Cong is still very accurate in judging people, he is sure that Liao Han is honest, he will honestly pay back every penny he borrowed, let alone drive himself away before paying back the money, so he is generous If you are shameless here, at least you have a place to stay.

"No, I will pay it back, but it may take a long time." He kept an account of the money owed by Liao Han, and he remembered it in a small book, and he would not rely on anyone.

"Well, that's right. I don't have a place to go, so I just live here, so I'll pay back my money."

"That won't work. Uncle Zhou has saved our family's life. Don't worry about living here. I won't lose any money." Liao Han said seriously.

"Okay." Don't want it for nothing, Zhou Cong thought happily.

Liao Han knew how difficult it was to borrow money, and he had recited a lot of scolding for not repaying it for such a long time, so when Uncle Zhou called for life-saving money without saying a word, Liao Han wished to see Uncle Zhou immediately and knock him three times. Ring your head to express your thanks.

But Mrs. Liao couldn't do without people, but Liao Han's gratitude didn't run away at all, they were all in his heart.

Liao Han pulled himself together and felt that his life was moving forward again. Yes, there are still so many foreign debts that have not been repaid, and it is not time to be depressed yet!

Before dawn the next day, Liao Han rode a tricycle into the city, squatted at the door of the work unit, and waited for the people inside to go to work.

Zhou Cong didn't hear the sound of chopping firewood in the morning, but he woke up on time and looked at his phone. It was not yet seven o'clock.He had no entertainment at night, and his life was so regular. Zhou Cong sighed helplessly, and got up to wash up.

After a while, Liao Han didn't come out to cut firewood. Zhou Cong was a little curious, so he pushed open the door of the main house, and searched around but couldn't find Liao Han.

The photos of Liao Han's family of three were placed on the table. The little Liao Han was not as dull as he is now, with bushy eyebrows, big eyes and tiger heads, smiling foolishly.

"Fool." Zhou Cong cursed in a low voice, found some leftover food from yesterday, and ate some casually.

The weather was gloomy today, so Zhou Cong closed the broken door and left it unlocked, and wandered aimlessly in the village.Liao Han's family was so poor that even thieves were unwilling to go in, so Zhou Cong had no idea of ​​locking the door at all.

Zhou Cong sighed that the houses in the village were dilapidated, but although there were few decent tile-roofed houses, none was more dilapidated than Liao Han's house.

When he met the village chief on the road, Zhou Cong was stopped by the village chief.

"His cousin, where did Liao Han go?"

"Going to town."

"Then you tell him that I recommended him for the poverty alleviation project in the town, and the town provided equipment, and asked him to open up his ration land as soon as possible, and the lowest price of seeds and fertilizers were all discounted. His mother also left, You have to find a job to make a living."

As soon as Zhou Cong heard that it was reliable, he quickly thanked the village chief, "I will definitely tell the story."

"Where are you going?" The village chief is actually not familiar with Liao Han, his cousin from the city, and has only met him a few times, but those who come from the city must be literate.

"I'll just turn around."

"That's just right, come over and help me," the village head arranged, "A library has just been built in the village. I've been very busy with farming recently, and several stacks of books have been left there. Do you know how to read?"

The author has something to say:

The big brother was cheated...

Our brother Xiao Cong is actually a knife-mouthed bean curd heart
