The following coal sold quickly. I don't know whether it was the small leaflets that played a role or the old customers' word of mouth. People came to Xu Zheng to buy coal every day. Thirty-five thousand coal briquettes were sold out within five days.

After deducting the cost, this truckload of coal earned Xu Zheng a full 400 yuan, which was equivalent to Xu Jingyan's two months' wages.

in just ten days.

After everything was spread out, Xu Zheng had nothing to worry about, and Wang Yeping could still help introducers to buy coal.

On the contrary, Xu Shi's life was very miserable.

After he had no reason to go out with Xu Zheng, Xu Shi was forced to study at home all day long.

Wang Yeping personally supervised after get off work, no matter how courageous Xu Shi was, she didn't dare to take out the wrapped comic book under her nose, so she had to bite the bullet and read Xu Zheng's textbook.

It wasn't until Xu Zheng accidentally flipped through his old textbook that Xu Shi had drawn turtles on the last page of the book.

Turtle shells are oddly shaped, round, triangular, and square.

Not only that, but even the periods in the sentences are filled and painted solid.

All in all, four words are revealed: I don't want to study.

Thanks to Xu Shi's cleverness, he knew to start drawing from the last page, otherwise Wang Yeping would have to beat him up again if he saw it.

"Why are you flipping through my book casually?" Xu Shi hurried over and tried to stop him.

Xu Zheng turned to the first page, tapped the big word Xu Zheng on it, and looked at him: "Your book?"

"Then I don't want it anymore, you take the book away." Xu Shi waved his hand in disgust, now he gets a headache when he sees the book.

"You tell mom yourself." Xu Zheng said lightly.

Xu Shi suddenly seemed to be choked, and limply lost all his strength: "No energy."

It makes people feel happy to watch Xu Shi deflated.

Before going to bed, Xu Zheng mentioned to Xu Shi: "Tomorrow I'm going to Guan Le, you stay at home by yourself."

"Go to Guan Le? What are you going for, and how long will you be going?" Xu Shi poked his head out from the upper bunk and demanded strongly, "I want to go too."

"To buy coal." Xu Zheng explained.

The coal was sold out yesterday, so Xu Zheng will go to You Zhi to buy some goods again in the next two days.

"Take me?" Xu Shi asked.

Xu Zheng pushed his head back: "No."

Xu Shi persisted and stretched out again: "Why?"

"What are you going to do?" Xu Zheng felt amused, "I went to buy coal, not to play."

"I can go buy coal with you." Xu Shi said.

Xu Zheng tried to find other reasons: "There is no room in the car."

The cockpit of the truck was already narrow, and Xu Zheng couldn't even let his legs go when he sat on it, and if he added another hour, he would probably only be able to sit on his lap.

"I also have a share in this business." Xu Shi complained for himself.

Xu Zheng didn't deny it: "And then?"

"I also want to see the mine." The more Xu Shi spoke, the more confident he became.

Xu Zheng got out of bed, put one hand on the railing beside the bed, stretched out his hand and poked the bump on his face: "In the future, you can have as many mines as you want."

Xu Shi rested his chin on the back of his hand and asked, "Then what now?"

"Keep this mystery first." Xu Zheng pulled out his hand and pressed against the wall, only to hear a slap, and the room fell into darkness.

There's nothing good about a mine, it's dark and dirty, and the air is full of soot.

"How long did you go this time?" After a while, Xu Shi asked again.

Xu Zheng thought for a while: "Three days."

Xu Shi threatened: "If it's a day late, I'll throw your quilt out."

"Don't want to live with you?"

Xu Zheng made an agreement with the driver in advance to set off at eight o'clock this morning.

Wang Yeping brought him a bunch of food, a bag of steamed buns, five eggs, and fried dough sticks and pancakes just bought from outside in the morning. Xu Zheng said helplessly, "Mom, I just finished breakfast."

"What if I get hungry in the car later?" Wang Yeping didn't allow him to refute.

"How about I send you?" Xu Jingyan put down the newspaper and asked.

"Farewell, didn't you go to work early in the morning?" Xu Zheng refused.

When Xu Shi heard it, his eyes lit up and he said positively, "I'll send it off."

Just as Xu Zheng wanted to tell him not to mess around, Wang Yeping made a decisive decision: "That's it."

"Let Xu Shi send you off." Wang Yeping turned her head and gave an ultimatum to the excited Xu Shi, "I tell you, if you dare to sneak off to Guan Le with your brother, I won't break your leg when you come back to see. "

Xu Shi: "Oh."

The road behind the mountain, Xu Zheng has traveled countless times in the past few days, and he is already familiar with it.

Xu Shi took the food prepared by Wang Yeping for Xu Zheng, took Xu Zheng's hand with one hand, and walked slowly towards their secret warehouse.

Xu Zheng was keenly aware that since getting up in the morning, Xu Shi became more clingy to him than ever.

His eyes were fixed on him all the time, and he even used the hand-holding behavior that he seldom made at ordinary times. He walked slowly like a snail, basically Xu Zheng dragged him away.

"If you don't hurry up, you will be late." Xu Zheng said.

It's a 5-minute journey, but I just walked for 10 minutes, and there is still more than half of it left.

"Oh." Xu Shi quickened his pace, but he couldn't help but tighten his hand.

Feeling the pressure on the back of his hand, Xu Zheng slowed down and asked, "Is that why you can't bear to part with me?"

Xu Shi did not speak.

"Be good at home these few days, I'll bring you whatever you want." Xu Zheng coaxed.

Xu Shi blinked, but still didn't speak.

It's just that the grievance on his face is beyond words.

Xu Shi didn't say a word, Xu Zheng suddenly didn't know what to do with him.

Anyway, he is also the younger brother that he watched and grew up since he was a child.

It's so pitiful now.

"Then what do you say?" Xu Zheng's voice was unexpectedly gentle.

Xu Shi said: "I want you to take me with you."

Xu Zheng cut gently: "This won't work."

"Oh." Xu Shi sighed melancholy, and then said, "That's gone, let's go."

The rare and well-behaved Xu Shi made Xu Zheng feel guilty.

When he arrived at the warehouse, the driver was already waiting for him there. Xu Zheng hugged Xu Shi for the last time, touched his head and said, "I'm leaving."

"Go." Xu Shi sneakily rubbed against his arms.

Halfway through, Xu Shi called him from behind: "You didn't bring any food."

Xu Zheng turned his head and saw Xu Shi raised his hand full of food and was about to walk towards him.

"No, you can take it back and eat." Xu Zheng stopped.

Xu Shi's footsteps stopped suddenly, his eyes were still a little confused, Xu Zheng explained to him again: "I'm motion sick, and it's easy to vomit when I smell it."

Wang Yeping was concerned, but Xu Zheng couldn't directly pour cold water on her.

Let Xu Shi take it back, just right.

"Let's go." Xu Zheng got into the car and said finally.

Xu Shi stood in a daze at the door of the warehouse, his eyes were slightly red, he blinked hard twice and then suppressed them.

Xu Shi raised his head and looked at Xu Zheng in the car window.

The truck drove by in front of him, spraying him with car exhaust just like that.

"Cough cough cough... Pooh!"
