Think childish

In the evening, the shop gradually became less crowded, and an old farmer carrying a load of fruits passed by the shop, shouting in a drawn-out tone: "Selling noodle melons—the fragrant and sweet old noodle melons—— "Listening to the voice is not a native yet.

Qiao Zhi yelled "Wait", and ran out in a few steps.

The old farmer had already been stopped by her. He lowered his body and put down his burden. He grabbed the towel hanging from his neck and wiped his face. He picked up a melon in the basket with a smile and said, "Girl, do you want melons? The root of this melon is filled with sesame cakes, it is fragrant and sweet, and the flesh is very sandy!"

"Let me take a look first." Qiao Zhi said, bent over and picked out the left and right baskets for a long time, and finally chose a big melon with neat patterns, paid the money and was about to leave, but saw the bottom of the left basket There are also some green plums hidden.

"Do you sell these plums?" Qiao Zhi asked.

The old farmer hurriedly said: "Sell, of course I have to sell." While talking, he carefully removed the noodles on it, and then said, "It's just that I have only a few plums left, and they are all leftovers. Yes, it's small and a bit sour, girl, would you buy it?"

Qiao Zhi smiled and said, "Buy it! I like sour ones."

A few minutes later, Qiao Zhi came back with a big noodle melon and half a catty of sour plums. Guo Qingshan was eager to see through the two glass doors. He couldn't wait to take them and ran to the kitchen. Qiao Zhi immediately yelled : "Cut carefully, don't cut your hands!"

Guo Qingshan ran fast, leaving an echo in the distance: "Got it!"

Qiao Zhi was planning to take the plums to the yard to wash, but Zhuang Qiushui was faster than her, leaving a sentence of "I'll wash it" and then disappeared.

Qiao Zhi chuckled lightly, but she was also enjoying herself happily.

The melon is very ripe, it melts in the mouth before biting into it, and a sweet aroma fills the nostrils of the three of them, it is more exciting than the sweet juice of the melon meat Fascinated.

The flesh of the melon was thick, and Qiao Zhitiao was also big, so the three of them felt a bit full after eating only half of it.Guo Qingshan ate so badly that half of his face was covered with juice, Qiao Zhi hiccupped and was about to eat another piece when a figure rushed in from outside the store, howling at them before standing still on-

"It's not good, Qiao Zhi, Qiu Kai and the others have been restrained! Go over and have a look!"

Qiao Zhi was still a bit confused when he heard the classic line "An accident must happen" as he was about to eat melons: "Who is wrong? What happened?"

Seeing that she was still so calm, the boy became even more anxious. This kind of anxiety was reflected indirectly by his body -- he stomped his feet eagerly.

As soon as he stomped his feet, Qiao Zhi suddenly remembered - ah... this person seemed to be a classmate in their class, and it seemed that he was nicknamed "Stomping Man" because of his special love of stomping his feet.

Guo Qingshan and Zhuang Qiushui squatted aside to watch the play silently, Guo Qingshan wanted to eat another piece of melon, but just as he stretched out his hand, Qiao Zhi knocked him quickly: "If you eat again, you will have diarrhea again."

So someone had no choice but to withdraw his hand eagerly, pursed his mouth, and savored the aftertaste.

The boy took a deep breath to calm down, and first explained the cause and process of the incident: "It's Qiu Kai. Today he made an appointment with us to play football on the grass field over the second courtyard after dinner. I went to It was too late, and as soon as I got there, I saw Qiu Kai and the others fighting with a group of people who deliberately troubled us at the stadium that day. I don’t know how Qiu Kai ran into them. Anyway, not long after I watched it, I..."

"They were held there, right?" Qiao Zhi added.

The boy probably also felt a little ashamed, and nodded uncomfortably.

Qiao Zhi was not surprised, Qiu Kai couldn't get anything good in Xie Xiaoqing's hands, and the result was self-evident when he met those rotten dragons.

A group of hot-blooded young men, plus there are still festivals, it's unknown if they started arguing in just a few words.

The boy said: "They have more people than us, and I can't save them by rushing in alone. Qiao Zhi, didn't you dismiss those people with a single sentence last time? This time, you can also help to find a way!"

In a word...brother, you really think highly of me...

It's a common problem at their age that they don't want to ask an adult to solve an accident. Qiao Zhi didn't bother to break up with him, and thought for a while and said: "Then you go to the second courtyard to guard first, and if those people finish fighting, they are willing to let them go." People, let’s forget about it, and there’s nothing wrong with fighting them fiercely.”

"Then what if they don't let him go?" the boy hurriedly answered.

Don't let people go... How dare he not let people go!

Qiao Zhi thought helplessly, well, it's time for her to pretend to be a tiger again, but she said calmly: "You go first, I'll find someone, see you in the Second Hospital later!"

"Okay!" The boy quickly ran out again.

Qiao Zhi got up and went to the courtyard to wash her hands, then turned back and said to Qiushui, "Qiu Shui, I'll go out for a while, and I don't need to settle the bills. I'll come over tomorrow morning and settle the calculations. You can go back with Qingshan after cleaning up." .”

Zhuang Qiushui shook his head uncharacteristically, and said, "No, sister, I want to go with you."

Qiao Zhi turned around and was about to leave, but turned back in surprise when she heard this - it's so strange, Qiu Shui would still say no?

Qiao Zhi knew what she was worried about, and comforted her: "It's okay, I'm just going to find someone, and I'll probably be back in half an hour. You take Qingshan back first, be obedient and be good."

Zhuang Qiushui shook her head more violently, wiped her hands on the rag, gently pulled the sides of her dress to get up, then snuggled into Qiao Zhi's arms, wrapped her arms around her waist, and touched her small face Go up, rub lightly again, wronged: "I don't, I want to go with you."

Guo Qingshan did not dare to do such presumptuous actions to his sister, but this did not prevent him from adding fuel to the flames nearby. Seeing that Qiushui was leading the charge, he also took advantage of the situation to make a fuss, yelling for go with her.

Qiao Zhi couldn't bear to be fierce in his arms, so she had no choice but to be fierce to the little bastard in front of her. With a cold look, Guo Qingshan didn't dare to speak.

But what to do with this in her arms, she was a little confused for a while.

Qiu Shui came back this time as if he was a different person. He was no longer as reserved in front of her as before. Unlike the obedient past, this little girl suddenly started to cling to herself. The behavior at this time today, on average To stage a return.

Qiao Zhi is usually the most tired of people leaning on her, but seeing Qiu Shui's cuteness, she thinks it's okay.It's just that she didn't expect that Qiu Shui's acting coquettishly would be harder to deal with than Guo Qingshan's crying.

Coax it, it's not good.

Scold it, I can't bear it.

When Qiao Zhi saw her curl her lips, she basically surrendered automatically.

"Okay, okay, let's go together, but you two have to follow me obediently, don't make trouble, don't talk too much, can it be done?"

Both of them said "OK" in unison.

Three people can't ride a car, so the best choice is to take a tram.

In the car, Guo Qingshan asked: "Sister, where can we find someone?"

Qiao Zhi reported a place name, neither of the two children had been there or heard of it, and waited curiously for her to explain.It's no wonder they don't know, the place is a bit out of the way, although it is out of the way, but it is an entertainment area, but it is a bit messy, Qiao Zhi was taken there once or twice by Luo Hai before he knew there was such a place in the city.

She is going to the video hall to find the kidnapper.

They got off the car at Nanjing East Road. Qiao Zhi crossed the road based on his impression, turned left and then went straight, then turned left again, then turned right again, went straight, and finally saw the words "Sages Square".

The breath hanging in my heart was slightly relieved, fortunately, I didn't find the wrong way.

"Holy, Ren, Square." Zhuang Qiushui looked at the bluestone archway and read each word, and stretched his neck curiously to look into the alley.

The alley is wide enough for two cars to drive side by side.

At this time, the sky was not yet completely dark, and the colorful light boards in the alley were only sparsely lit up. At a glance, there were sellers of snacks, cigarettes, non-staple food, cloth and jewelry. There was a faint singing in the depths of the alley. When it passed, the air seemed to be echoing with the woman's charming smile.

According to Luo Hai, this is an extremely unscrupulous place, and he has warned her many times not to allow her to come here secretly.Although Qiao Zhi had never seen the indecency of this place with her own eyes, she dared not take Luo Hai's warning seriously. Since it was still dark and there were few people, she had to make a quick decision, after all, she was not Came alone.

Guo Qingshan was warned not to run around by Qiao Zhi along the way. Although his eyes were blurred and he wished to stop and appreciate it, he didn't dare to disobey his sister's words. Hand, a lot of things are just a fleeting touch.

The "Wuya" video hall is right next to a store selling cigarettes and non-staple food. Qiao Zhi hadn't approached her when the kidnapper was sitting at the door, smoking a cigarette with Erlang's legs crossed. Startled.

It was hot, and he was shirtless. When he saw Qiao Zhi, he grabbed the vest and put it on, and then walked up to her in two or three steps: "Why did you come here?" He said, looking at her hands, and then behind her Seeing it, cold sweat rolled down, "Where's Brother Hai? Don't tell me you came here alone?"

Qiao Zhi also felt a little guilty in her heart, so she forced an "ang" and said, "You can't report this to Luo Hai! Let him know that it's time to nag me again."

The kidnapper didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "No, why don't you find a phone booth and call me if you have something to do? What kind of place is this? Brother Hai wants to know that you came here alone, so he won't cut me to death!"

"Oh, it's too urgent. I'll come to you directly. If you don't tell me about it, Luo Hai won't know about it." Qiao Zhi looked at him begging for help.

Guo Qingshan and Kidnap's younger brother were a little shocked when they saw the boy talking to his sister, and the girl who was treated with care by his elder brother.

The kidnapper's younger brother was thinking—who is this woman?Looking at a young man, how dare he call Boss Luo by his first name? !

Guo Qingshan was thinking - this man is too strong, right?Look at that fleshy body, it feels even more ferocious than Huo Er Er in "Jianghu Boys"!Looking at my sister again, I felt awe in my heart, his sister was completely hiding it!Looks like a mafia boss!

Only Zhuang Qiushui was as quiet and calm as ever, with a pair of immature eyes quietly and vigilantly looking at all the people and things around him.

The unfamiliar environment will make her feel uneasy, and quickly familiarizing herself with everything around her is the best way for her to calm herself down.

Kidnap smiled helplessly, and said, "Tell me, what can I do for help?"

Qiao Zhi quickly told him what happened that day in the stadium and what happened today. After hearing this, the kidnapper turned around and gave some instructions to the younger brother, then picked up the cigarette case and leather jacket on the bench at the door, looked Looking at her, he said, "Let's go, you lead the way."

Qiao Zhi stared slightly: "You alone? There are several people on the other side!"

The kidnapper sneered, and wanted to shake out a cigarette and smoke it, but when he saw the three children in front of him, he silently dismissed the idea.

He asked, "Are you following me?"

Qiao Zhi nodded: "That's my friend, I have to go."

The kidnapper then shook the leather jacket, put it on, and finally couldn't hold back, lit a cigarette, and said, "That's terrible, you are still following, why should I fight? Let's fight with each other."

On the way, Qiao Zhi asked curiously, "Wouldn't it be hot for you to wear a leather jacket on such a hot day?"

Guo Qingshan was also very curious about this question. Hearing Qiao Zhi's question, he also asked: "That's right, brother, aren't you hot?"

Qiao Zhi admired Guo Qingshan's ability to call anyone "brother" when he caught him, and to get close to anyone.

Kidnap didn't think there was anything awkward about it, and said sharply, "Are you dressed handsomely, and it's not very hot."

Qiao Zhi didn't think he was handsome in this outfit at all, the main reason was that his muscular body looked so cruel, and the little leather jacket was stretched like tights by him, and it looked like a tiger from the back.But she remembered that Luo Hai always liked to hold a small mirror to scratch his head and make poses when he was fine. She guessed that Aimi, the kidnapper, also learned from Luo Hai.

As soon as they arrived at the second courtyard, Qiao Zhi was still looking for where the weeds were, when she suddenly heard a yell, and she responded, a figure staggered towards her, it was the person who reported the message earlier.

As soon as the boy stood still, he said anxiously: "Qiu Kai is gone!"

"It's gone?!" Qiao Zhi's eyes widened.

The boy said: "When I first arrived, I saw a few people from our side walking out. I thought that the group of people like you said would release them after beating them, but they said that those people only released them. Let it go, and take Qiu Kai away."

"why?"

The boy cried out anxiously: "Because Qiu Kai made those people come to him for something."

Qiao Zhi: "..."

"I'm really convinced! Can't he bear it for a while?" Qiao Zhi turned to the kidnapper, "What should we do now? Can you find those people?"

The kidnapper nodded: "Should be able to." Then he asked the boy, "Does one of them have a mole on his left chin?"

mole?The boy shook his head in disbelief: "I don't remember, and I haven't seen it clearly."

Qiao Zhi said: "It should be the group of Jiao Da's subordinates, but I don't know if Jiao Da is present this time?"

The kidnapper didn't make a sound, and pulled Qiao Zhi aside before saying, "There's something you don't know. After Jiao Da was injured last time, I heard that he worshiped the mountain again, and he recognized a big brother from the south of the city." .That person has a lot of power and a dark heart. If Brother Hai was here today, we could still grab him. But if Brother Hai is not here, I don’t have that much face. Also, I don’t want to cause trouble for Brother Hai, so I said, We can only fight with each other today, and we must make your classmate suffer a bit."

Qiao Zhi didn't expect this to be such a big deal, so she nodded and said, "It's okay, let's get them out first. As for the loss, Qiu Kai's family is not that easy to provoke, and there is no shortage of people to vent his anger on."

The kidnapper made a "hmm" and looked aside again: "I don't know that classmate of yours, and I'm afraid he won't listen to me, so you can go with me and persuade him when the time comes. But these two little , and that coward, don't follow, it's in the way."

Qiao Zhi naturally agreed.

She asked Qiushui to take Qingshan to take the tram home first, this time Qiushui didn't bother her much, and obediently agreed as soon as she heard what she said, so Guo Qingshan didn't dare to be presumptuous, and nodded obediently, and didn't say anything again. They clamored to go with them.

Before getting into the car, Qiu Shui grabbed her hand worriedly and didn't say anything, but the eyes looking at her said everything.

Qiao Zhi pinched her face, smiled at her in the sweltering summer evening wind, and said, "Don't worry, you go back by car and count to one thousand, and I'll be back."

The author has something to say: In retrospect, when I was in college, every year on the Friday before the National Day, the words I said the most seemed to be: Those who should skip class can skip...
