My 1979

Old Man Li grinded his shield for a while, then suddenly said, "Otherwise, if you really have a shop, you can sell it to me."

He thought Li He was just talking nonsense and didn't believe that Li He really had a shop.

"You want to buy? That's the best. If I say yes, I'll do it. How can I deceive you about this kind of thing? You don't know who I am?" Li He may not be willing to continue to be a charterer, he said, " Then wait until your son comes over to see the shop, or should you go and see it yourself?"

"I'll go and see for myself." Old Man Li looked around and saw that He Fang was not there, then he chuckled and said, "Of course I understand who you are. We are not outsiders. We chat with each other. You don't understand. This guy is just like me when I was young, he is the kind of kind-hearted fool who attracts girls, especially the kind of girls who think they are smart and strong."

"Don't talk nonsense. Which girl did I recruit? If people heard it, they would think I was a gangster." Li He filled up the old man's wine glass, then clinked a glass and said with a smile, "How can you be so kind and generous?" ?"

Old Man Li sighed with emotion, "Who didn't have it when they were young? I was also a handsome boy back then, and I was loved by girls. A beautiful woman wants to be pretty, but a pink girl has no intention of being a prodigal. That's how it goes."

Li He smiled and did not interrupt the old man's self-absorption.

After drinking and eating, Li He found an empty room for him and arranged for him to rest. He wouldn't be leaving for a while.

Li He also went to bed, but after waking up, his head was still very dizzy. Looking at the energetic old man Li, he knew that he could no longer accompany him to drink.

He asked the driver to pick up Old Man Tang. He needed someone to accompany him for a drink. The best thing about him as a fellow countryman is his ability to drink. Maybe two old men can come up with something in common if they drink together.

Old Man Tang came happily. He usually took Li He for a drink every now and then, so there was no reason why he shouldn't come when Li He invited him to his house.

As soon as he heard that he was here to accompany a guest, he immediately left all the noodle shop matters to his wife, and he came with a large jar of medicinal wine.

He patted Old Man Li on the shoulder and said, "I'm a few years older than you. I call you brother. You must not get drunk tonight."

Old Man Li gave him a cigar, then squinted his eyes and looked at the mole on Old Man Tang's head, and then said, "Brother, a mole on your hair means wealth."

Old Man Tang said modestly, "Hey, I just open a small noodle shop to make a living. I know wealth, but wealth doesn't know me. Sit down, sit down quickly."

After the food was served, He Fang, the fourth and fifth women finished their meals early, and went for a walk on the beach with their children in their arms.

There were only three men left, one cup for you and one cup for me. Li He spent most of the time watching the two old men drink. He had no energy to drink anymore.

"Brother is a man of stories." Old Man Li and Old Man Tang finished clinking glasses and took a sip.

Old Man Tang wiped his mouth and said, "I became a child soldier when I was thirteen or fourteen years old. The barrel of my gun was higher than mine. Hey, I just ran around like that. I was lucky enough to survive. I didn't end up settling down here later. I’m almost starving to death. Brother, you grew up in the Imperial City, so you don’t know the difficulties of miserable people like us.”

After speaking, he shook his head and sighed.

"I'm serious. Every family has its own difficulties. There were no rules at the foundation of the Imperial City, and life was not easy for anyone."

"The stingy people in this imperial city are first-rate."

Old Man Li asked doubtfully, "Why did I say this?"

"In the 19th year of the Republic of China? Or was it the 20th year, I can't remember clearly. That year, Yan Laoxi and a few people forced Bald Chiang to leave the field, and they were fighting fiercely with Lao Jiang. Who could have imagined that Zhang Xueliang led troops from the north. The artillery fire was soaring into the sky, and people were on their backs. , I was frightened at that time. Think about it, I am a soldier just for food. How can I really work hard? My brothers haven’t even discussed whether to run away or not. As a result, the large army was scattered. There was no way, and all the skin was taken off. I sneaked into the city of Beiping. When I entered the city, I was penniless, hungry and thirsty. When I saw a large family, I discussed with one of my brothers and went in to beg for food. I wanted to have a full stomach no matter what. Think about it. , that green hall, tiled buildings, and tall gate tower, how can you not get a bite to eat?"

Old Man Li blew out a smoke ring and said with a smile, "Yes, it's not easy. Brother, keep talking."

He also smiled and gave Old Man Tang an encouraging look.

"Who knew that the rich man of this family was not a thing! After hearing the purpose of our visit, he was so humiliated that he threw the fragrant scallion pancake directly to the dog. After the dog was full, he even let the dog bite it. Us! Do you think this is irritating or not?" Old Man Tang, using the strength of his wine, pounded the table heavily and continued, "Although my brothers are poor big-headed soldiers, they have never been treated like this. But this family It’s not easy to mess with. Do you think this is an ordinary family? Ask around and they say that the entire Qianmen Street belongs to other people! Darling, you tell me whether we dare to mess with you or not. We are just stragglers, so we don’t want to mess with you. I dare to be meddlesome, but I won’t feel comfortable if I don’t vent the anger in my stomach. The more I think about it, the more angry I am.”

Old Man Li said, "The family you are talking about is named Li?"

Old Man Tang was surprised, "You also know?"

Old Man Li nodded, "Of course I know. The Li family on Qianmen Street is so famous, how could I not know about it."

Old Man Tang said, "Then you know what I said is true, right? This family is not a thing. They are rich and unkind and bring harm to the village. But it is also retribution. It is said that this family has two sons. The eldest son smokes and goes to the brothel. He is a first-class prodigal son, and his youngest son is still wearing crotchless pants. He is said to be unlearned and unskilled. He watched the maid take a shower when he was three or five years old. "

Li He looked at Old Man Li's face from the side. He wanted to laugh but was embarrassed, so he had to pretend to lower his head and drink.

Old Man Li continued to ask, "Then you left later?"

Old Man Tang chuckled and said, "I'm leaving, but we did something big before we left."

"Did you give medicine to that dog?" Old Man Li spoke in a very unkind tone.

But Old Man Tang probably drank too much, and he didn't realize the sinister atmosphere in Old Man Li's words. He just kept saying, "That's not it, dear, don't tell me, that dog is really fat, and a big earthen pot is too big." Put it down, it took our brothers two long hours to finish it. Zizhi, that tastes so good!"

He didn't quite finish what he said, and took a sip of saliva, probably because he was still missing the taste of dog meat.

Old Man Li continued to ask, "Did you climb up on other people's roofs, remove the tiles, and fill them with feces?"

Old Man Tang asked in surprise, "Brother, do you know all this? Haha, it means that our heroic deeds spread far and wide! The more shameful and embarrassing they are, the happier we are. Do you feel relieved? You people who are oppressed , you should resist!"

It feels like a great revenge has been avenged.

Boom! A few bangs!

Old Man Li overturned the table!

Old Man Tang was shocked. It took him a long time to react and asked quickly, "What's wrong, brother?"

Old Man Li pointed at Old Man Tang's nose, his chest rising and falling, "You! You!"

My fingers are trembling!

He didn't know what to say for a moment, and in anger he punched Old Man Tang with his fist.

Old Man Tang was so frightened that he circled around the room. While avoiding his pursuit, he shouted, "Brother, what did I do wrong? Point it out and tell me why!"

"Your mother! The Li family you are talking about is my family! Why did I watch someone take a bath when I was three years old!"

"Ah!" Old Tang couldn't have imagined that the world is so small, how could we meet on such a narrow road? He still didn't believe it and said, "Brother, we can't be mistaken!"

"It's your fault for being paralyzed!"

"Brother! How could such a coincidence happen! Don't fool me!"

"And the dog you ate was raised by me! You poured shit into my bed! You're paralyzed!"

Old Man Tang said, "Brother, it's better to resolve enemies than to end them!"

Seeing Old Man Li's aggressive attitude, Old Man Tang believed it!

Li He looked at the mess in the house. With such deep hatred, he decided not to get involved. Seeing that the situation was not right, he quickly ran away.

"I'm going to beat you to death today, you little bastard!"
