The modern fortune-telling history of a small shopkeeper

Those who have never been hungry do not know the value of food.

Qiao Minglang came from poverty. He knew what it was like to be hungry. For him, food was edible as long as it didn't kill people.Besides, the meals in the school cafeteria were not so unpalatable to him.

Chen Junfei turned his own upper berth with his hand, and asked him to look at Zhou Xing and Qiao Minglang who were opposite him. The meaning in his eyes was: You see how delicious other people's food is, why can't we eat it!

"..." Xiaotong curled his lips and ate the food in the lunch box with an expression on his face that was about to cry. Woohoo, he wants to go home~

Chen Junfei, on the other hand, had an expression of enmity with the rice, and he put the rice into his mouth mouthful, gnashing his teeth.

"You eat." After a while, Zhou Xing finished his big lunch box, got up with the eaten lunch box, and prepared to leave.

"Wait." Qiao Minglang called to stop him, and took out a key from his pocket, "The key to the dormitory, you can use it."

"No need." Zhou Xing glanced at the key in the young man's hand, and left without reaching out to pick it up.

At this time, Chen Junfei remembered that when he bought the lock yesterday, he was provided with three keys. There were only three people in their dormitory at that time, so he forgot about the one who didn't come. Get another key."

"It's okay, I'll find the master to help me later." Qiao Minglang said.

After the three of them finished their meal, they went back to the dormitory building.

After going to the dormitory, Qiao Minglang came out from the dormitory again.

The automatic guardrails of the front and rear doors of the school are closed, and only a trail on the side is open for students who sleep out.Every day when school is over, the school's security guards will guard the door and check the school cards of the students one by one before letting them out.

Sometimes the leaders and teachers of the school are still waiting here specially to wait for the students who slipped out, and if they are caught, they will report and criticize them.

Standing not far from the school gate and taking a look, Qiao Minglang knew he couldn't go outside.If I had known earlier, he would ask the teacher for a leave just now, go out for a while, and tell my cousin to come back.

"Want to go out?" Zhou Xing happened to call here, and noticed their old friend standing here, with this expression, he wanted to go out.

Qiao Minglang looked back and found that it was Zhou Xing. He hesitated for a moment and nodded.

"Come with me." There was no one in Zhou Xing, why did Qiao Minglang want to go out, anyway, everyone who wanted to go out must have a reason for wanting to go out.Just like himself, he himself went for a walk just now, and he has already gone out for a while and then came back.

Under the sun at noon, the two walked one after the other.

Zhou Xing took his old friend to an empty corner, and the two stood under the fence.Zhou Xing glanced left and right, saw no one, raised his chin to Qiao Minglang, and said, "Go up."

go up?

Qiao Minglang looked at such a high wall and weighed it in his heart, thinking that he might not be able to climb it.

"Aren't you going out? Do you still want to go out?" Seeing the person standing here, Zhou Xing glanced at Qiao Minglang's height, then at the fence, and said in his heart, "It's really troublesome."

Qiao Minglang knew that if they wanted to go out right now, the only way was to turn over here. Thinking that it would take half a month for them to come back, he was worried that his cousin would look for him, so he wanted to go out and tell his cousin outside One sound, so that my cousin can't wait for him outside, and people who can't find him will worry about him.

Looking at Zhou Xing's eyes, he hesitated in his heart, but nodded.

He didn't hear footsteps coming towards them, so he was sure no one would come at this moment.

"I'll throw you up, and you climb over the wall." Zhou Xing clasped Qiao Minglang's waist with both hands, and threw him up.Qiao Minglang hung on the fence. It was the first time for classmate Qiao to climb the fence. He was still a little unskilled in business, and his feet were staring at the fence, so he couldn't get up to the top of the wall.

"..." Zhou Xing.

Young Master Zhou, who was watching from below, rolled his eyes, took a step back, stepped on the wall with his feet, and climbed up the wall with both hands. When he exerted force on his feet, he climbed onto the top of the wall.For him, climbing over the wall is easier than eating.

"Give me your hand."

Qiao, who was hanging on the wall, looked up at Zhou Xing and stretched out his hand.

Zhou Xing stretched out his hand to grab Qiao Minglang, and dragged him up, and the two of them fell to the other side of the wall together.

"Go whatever you want to do, I'll wait for you here." Seeing Qiao Minglang looking at him, Zhou Xing waved his hands to make him do whatever he wanted, and they will meet here later.

Qiao Minglang glanced at Zhou Xing, turned around and left.

He can remember the road he walked once, follow the road he walked yesterday, and find the small hotel they visited yesterday.

The little girl sitting at the front desk was yawning. He asked the room where his cousin lived, found the room number, knocked on the door, and waited for a while, but no one came to open the door.

His cousin is not here, so he probably went out to find a house.

After waiting in the hall for a while, he saw that the clock hanging on the wall was about to reach the two o'clock position, and knew that if he waited any longer, he might not be able to wait for someone.Qiao Minglang had no choice but to walk over to the little girl, asked someone to borrow a paper and a pen, and wrote a note, "Please help me deliver this note to the guest who lives in room XX."

"Oh, okay." The receptionist took the note and stuffed it under the landline.

After leaving the words, Qiao Minglang left the small hotel and went out.

At this time, he didn't know that as soon as he stepped out with his front foot, his cousin came back with his back foot.

Qiao Mingshan searched for a house outside for a long time, and finally let him find a house with a good location and cheap rent. He signed a three-month contract with the landlord, paid the deposit and one month's rent, and hurriedly Come back to the small hotel, ready to pack up and go to the newly rented house.

After packing up his things upstairs and going down to the front desk to check out, Qiao Mingshan left with his little luggage.

After the person left, the front desk lady saw the note under the landline. Isn't this for the guest who just left?She forgot to give...

Forget it, everyone is gone anyway, and she doesn't know where he is, so where can she find it?

So because of the forgetfulness of the front desk lady, Qiao Mingshan didn't know that his little cousin had gone to another place.

***

While waiting for someone, Zhou Xing thought that he could not buy cigarettes at the military training place, so Zhou Xing went to a small shop to buy a large pack of cigarettes.

But he went to buy cigarettes and came back. After waiting here for a long time, Qiao Minglang didn't come back.

With a cigarette dangling from his mouth, Zhou Xing smoked one after another, feeling a little impatient.

"Sorry to keep you waiting." Qiao Minglang hurried back, his forehead was wet with sweat, and it seemed that he was walking in a hurry.Seeing that Zhou Xing was still waiting for him here, he breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise he really didn't know how to turn back by himself.

"Wait until I finish this cigarette." Seeing that Qiao Minglang had returned, Zhou Xing held the cigarette between his fingers, took a puff, and exhaled a puff of mist.

Qiao Minglang looked at Zhou Xing and felt that this classmate was a bit different from other students in the school.

"Why, do you want to have a sip too?" It's really hard to ignore the other party's eyes staring at him. When Qiao Minglang looked at him, Zhou Xing suddenly smiled and passed the cigarette in his hand. , and asked him if he wanted to smoke.

"No." Qiao Minglang shook his head, remembering that their old man never left his cigarette.But what about the appearance of this classmate smoking? ...

...It's not the same as their old man.

What's different, he couldn't say for a while.

"Good students don't want to smoke like others, do you understand?" Zhou Xing didn't feel any surprise as if he expected that Qiao Minglang would not smoke. If it was this person who wanted to smoke, he would be surprised.

After taking two puffs of cigarettes in his hand, he crushed the end of the cigarette with his foot, raised his chin to Qiao Minglang, and said, "Come here."

"See if there is anyone, no one will jump off." Zhou Xing reminded, don't turn around and catch someone there.

This time Qiao Minglang was proficient. When Zhou Xing threw him up, he climbed up the wall with both hands, looked over there with his head, and saw that no one had climbed up.At this time, Zhou Xing had already climbed up the fence, and even stretched out his hand to grab Qiao Minglang, and the two of them fell back into the school.

The two walked upstairs to the dormitory, Qiao Minglang said to Zhou Xing who was walking in front, "Thank you."

"You're welcome, I also want to go shopping." Actually, Zhou Xing couldn't say it himself. When he saw Qiao Minglang standing at the door, he walked towards him. Knowing that this old friend wanted to go out, he still gave him a hand.

How did he not know that he was such an enthusiastic person before?

"It's for you." Qiao Minglang took out a key from his pocket, handed it to Zhou Xing, and said, "I just asked the master to match it."

"Thank you." Zhou Xing glanced at it and knew that this key should be the new key that Qiao Minglang went to find someone to type just now, so he took it and threw it into his trouser pocket casually.

At this time, the students in the dormitory building were all taking a nap, and the whole dormitory building became quiet.

The two of them returned to the dormitory, and saw that the other two roommates in the dormitory were sleeping on the bed, and they got on their own bed lightly.

Ten minutes later, the horn outside sounded again.

"Hey, are you all back? I said where did you two go?" Chen Junfei sat up from the bed, seeing Qiao Minglang and Zhou Xing coming back at some point.Qiao Minglang went outside to wash his face, and when he heard Chen Junfei talking to them, he let out a "hmm".

"We're going to military training later, have you packed your things?"

"Clean up now."

Zhou Xing dug out a black backpack, stuffed the pack of cigarettes he had bought into the bottom of the backpack, and then stuffed in the clothes, shoes and socks for military training.
