With a squeak, the door of the house was pushed open, the rusty iron door, a scent of fruit, this two-story exclusive courtyard was earned by selling fruit. Yu Zui walked gently to the window on the first floor, his father was still busy, the fruit business was not easy, especially the off-season fruit, which rotted while selling. Dad squatted in the room, carefully picking up the boxes of fruits that came in. The big ones were good-looking and retailed at a high price; As for those with scars and rotten parts, there is also a solution. Gouge out the wounds and sell them to high-consumption places such as big hotels, KTVs, and Song City.
There is no way, if you do not do well, you will lose money, but if you do well, you have to accept a glorious title given by the masses: profiteer.
He looked at his father, who was shorter than him, and everyone in South Street called his father Yu Xiaozi. When he was a child, he smashed the glass of other people's house because of this incident, but if he stood up for his father, he would be beaten up, and his father would be punished later. Give others glass money. He always felt that his father was worthless, and he nodded and bowed when he saw someone, with a flattering smile on his face. Sometimes when I get angry and get angry, I also quarrel with those old women who are picking and picking and fighting for a few cents. The biggest wish of my father selling fruit for half his life is not to let his son follow him to become a fruit dealer.
The best thing is to be a policeman and bully others. Don't be bullied all the time, even the neighborhood committee lady.
In fact, Yu Zui also wants to be a policeman, but his ideal stays in the image of a police officer in a police station. For example, if you catch those kids fighting in middle school, the parents who come back to intercede will come to you; for example, if you check the temporary population, the landlord will immediately arrest you Pulled to a secluded place to talk; as for these small hotels and hair salons on Fenxi Street, they even treated the policemen as uncles, strolling around once a month, which is more than the income on the salary card, why are those The co-ops who earn thousands of yuan are still working hard, and they just go for the little gray income.
Ideal, what a beautiful ideal, what a fascinating life.
Do you want to abandon these things that may become a reality, and follow Xu Pingqiu to participate in some mysterious training
He thinks there will be no good things, it must be devil training such as physical fitness, firearms, and arrests. When you come out, you will be trained as a tool for arresting people or a killing machine. The criminal police, the mysterious professional residual crime, already has a little understanding, especially those criminal police who are on the front line of arresting and solving crimes, who are more tired than other criminals committing crimes. If you are tired, you can be tired. The key is that there must be only a dry salary and allowance, and you can make a living. If you want to get married and marry a daughter-in-law to live a more comfortable life, there is no way.
However, it can be considered that Director Xu said about the remuneration after elimination, so if the big director said hello to Fenxi, it seemed that there would be a way to worry about himself and his father, so it would be embarrassing to find a relationship Well done. If you really have the opportunity to enter the police station or the security team here in Fenxi, wouldn't it save you a lot of money!
Yu Zui looked at his father who was picking up a basket of apples, and felt a little bit sorry for the money he picked up for a dime. He loved the house and black, and he must also feel sorry for his father. When I was young, I was too mischievous and mischievous. The older I got, the more I felt that it was not easy for my father to be a parent. I was so busy saving my son's daughter-in-law money that I even delayed my own daughter-in-law. In fact, what makes Yu Zui so tempted is that if something like that happens after being eliminated after participating in the competition, and if he can really become a majestic film policeman in Fenxi, then the ideals of both father and son will be realized.
"Old Yu...Old Yu, are you here?"
A female voice shouted from outside the door, Yu Zui was startled, and replied, "You are here, Aunt He, why are you here?"
Speaking of opening the door, a middle-aged woman stood outside the door, holding a bowl, patted Yu Zui kindly and said: "I made a piece of braised pork. The pigs killed by the relatives in the country are not fed with feed. The taste is delicious." ... You two have a taste."
"Oh my, why are you being polite... Wait, come in and have a meeting, I'll decorate you with some fruit." Yu Mantang glanced at the door and warmly invited, Yu Zui stepped aside knowingly. This Aunt He Minzhi is an admirer of her father, and she has always treated Yu Mantang as a benefactor since her father led her into the fruit business. As for how far the two of them have grown, Yu Zui doesn't dare to speculate. Anyway, Aunt He's husband passed away early, and many colleagues have already called Aunt He as Yu Zui's stepmother.
If you don't take fruit, why are you being polite? We are also fruit sellers, so what is missing? He Minzhi said in her heart, let's just tell you two to eat, handed over the bowl and left. With such an old son, it must be inconvenient to talk. Lao Yu sent him a long way graciously. When he came back, he saw his son giggling and laughing in the doorway. ah?"
"Dad, don't drag me like this. The stepmother has to get my permission to enter the door, otherwise I will show her face." Yu Zui provoked his father, and Yu Mantang was a little embarrassed, and said with a wave of his hand: "What is it with what? Listen They gossip, let me tell you, I have nothing to do with you, Auntie He."
"Isn't that right, Dad, you're really not tempted at all, I think Aunt He is pretty good." Yu Zui said, this sentence is to the point, Yu Zui's impression is really good, she is a standard good wife and mother, if her husband died in a car accident , that family is no worse off than the Yu family. Unexpectedly, Lao Yu shook his head, pursed his lips, and said in embarrassment: "I didn't say yes, but it's just..."
"What is it?" Yu Zui had long wanted to solve his father's lifelong event, but he didn't know what was wrong with him.
"Tsk, her family girl doesn't go to high school. That girl is so lazy and far away from her mother, and she doesn't study well. She is not as good as you. You say that now you are rushing to spend money to go to college. If I really want to marry Auntie He, why don't you let me bear the education expenses?" Lao Yu said distressedly, it was really hard to choose. Yu Zui chuckled, the treacherous father and son are very good at calculating, he hugged his father and said: "It makes sense... But Dad, have you ever thought about it, if she wants to marry in the future, the gift fee will not be low, Erya looks so juicy, really Looking for a rich man, aren't you rich?"
"That... is not suitable, the investment risk is too high." Yu Mantang shook his head, and suddenly found that his son was holding him to discuss marriage just like his buddies. things, don't interrupt... you little brat, what do you know?"
Yu Zui smiled, and kept laughing wickedly, causing his father to kick his feet and yelling at him to cook. One cooks and the other picks up the fruit. When it's time to serve the table, Lao Yu opens a bottle of wine and asks his son excitedly, "How is it? Tell me, has Director Liu taken a fancy to you?"
"Dad!" Yu Zui glared, and said impatiently, "Look at you, you made me like this. You want to be tall, but you don't want to look good, and you are not a big family if you want to give gifts. Do you think people will like it?"
"Then why did you come back now? You don't have to blame Dad for your size and looks. Dad is not as good as you." Lao Yu was surprised. He went there all afternoon and came back at night, thinking that his son had a good chat with the police chief. Yu Zui said while eating, "There is a chance. I have considered it for a long time, but I feel a little inappropriate."
"Why isn't it suitable? Just do it when you get the chance. Why, you still come back with your dad to sell fruit?" Lao Yu was not happy, so Yu Zui gave the general situation. However, for Lao Yu, the police affairs It is far less familiar than Que Jin Short Two, and I am at a loss to hear it. But what he understood was that his son was worried about the danger of working as a front-line criminal policeman. After thinking about it, Lao Yu shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be."
"Why not? The front-line criminal police are in danger." Yu Zui said awe-inspiringly.
"You're not a coward. Besides, the police on TV are catching bad guys. Once you catch a bad guy, there will be a group of people. Are you stupid, just rush to the front?" Lao Yu immediately scolded his son, feeling that this opportunity It's a pity to let it go. When Yu Zui heard it, he gave an expression of admiration and suddenly realized: "Dad, you are so smart, but have you ever thought about it? It's a TV show. No villain will be so stupid as to wait for you to be surrounded by the police brigade." Arrest people. The real arrest is made in groups. For example, we train in groups of three or five, otherwise there is no mobility. In this case, if you really encounter a gangster who dares to shoot with a knife, it will be hard to say , No matter how powerful it is, I'm afraid it will kill me."
"That's true." Lao Yu sipped his glass of wine, scratched his mustache on his lips, and said dubiously, looking at his son who was slightly drunk and able to think independently, he nodded and said: "Yes, it's dangerous. Let's not go. Anyway, there are many people without jobs now."
Yu Zui laughed. The good thing about my father is that he is easy to be persuaded. Although he often beats and kicks his son to educate him, he never supports his son without principle. It's a pity that I can't say it, Yu Zui saw the matter in two, and then got together to discuss with his father: "I think it's better to go, you see, I'm right, Dad, if you want to be selected, you must stay." The criminal police team in the provincial capital charged forward, but they were eliminated if they had to be selected. Although it was not good-looking, it was very beneficial. At least we have participated in the training camp. The good times will come. Although the provincial capital is the buttocks of cows, when we go back to Fenxi, we will be chicken heads, and we must be better than ordinary people... This is to be a cow first, and then a chicken head. What if we really enter our police station? , the criminal police team, not only save a lot of money, but also earn a few years earlier. If you really come back from graduation, you will have to wait a year or two just to switch from the internship to the contract system, and it is not yet clear whether the Fenxi Public Security Bureau can enter."
Dare to have such a bad idea, but it suits Lao Yu's appetite, Lao Yu laughed loudly and said: "It makes sense, with your virtue, I'm not worried about you being promoted, but I'm afraid that you will be a bull's ass in the provincial capital Even if you go back to Fenxi, you won’t be a chicken head, but a chicken butt.”
These words made Yu Zui blush. Since he was a child, he has been sitting behind the buttocks of a group of classmates. Whether it is study or morality, he really can't get ahead of others. The only time a special recruit was selected by the police academy was when my father gritted his teeth and paid tens of thousands of dollars for the indicators bought from the recruitment dealers. It's also really embarrassing.
When the son was embarrassing, the father grinned. He poured a glass of wine for the son and comforted him: "Don't think too much, just follow Naihe. You were only one year old when Dad was laid off, and you suddenly lost your salary. Dad thinks that the sky is falling, and this is coming, and life is not bad. Dad doesn’t care, if you want to stay in the provincial capital, Dad will save some rent for you. If the year is good, maybe he can save for you Order my wife... If you want to go back to Fenxi, that's even better. If you want to live here, let's renovate the house. If you don't want to live with Dad, Dad will buy you a house in the urban area. At worst, you will suffer for another ten or eight years. , going to retire and have grandchildren.”
"Dad, it's been twenty years since my wife can't hug me, so I want to hug my grandson?" Yu Zui smiled and joked with his father, Yu Mantang couldn't hold back his old face, so he slapped his son, blowing his beard and staring at him. If it wasn't for raising you, a little bastard, and fearing that your stepmother would abuse you, I would be enough to marry two or three daughters-in-law. Yu Zui poured wine for his father, smiled and comforted him: "Dad, don't miss my daughter-in-law... In fact, the most urgent thing is to marry you a daughter-in-law and find me a stepmother, or my wife will not want to see you in the future." , can you rest assured that you live alone?"
"That's still a human saying...you still have a little conscience." Lao Yu felt relieved, clinked glasses with his son, and after just comforting him, he immediately became nervous, talking to himself, as if he was doing mental calculations. He wrote the account, and then said dejectedly: "Son, it can't be done. Now marrying a wife is the same as housing prices, and the market is rising. The money Dad has saved in the past few years can make do for you to start a family. I can't worry about starting a family by myself." , Let my son be a bachelor. Besides, the one who came in the second time is not born or with the same heart... Forget it, Dad can just find a good friend and go out, it won't cost a lot of money."
Yu Zui ate a mouthful of food, and spit it all out. "Crossing the door" is the old generation's saying, and the new generation is called picking up girls, but my father's dating should be at the level of aunts, and Aunt He probably has more. Inadvertently revealed his thoughts, Lao Yu couldn't hold back his old face anymore, he knocked his son a few chopsticks, and sternly put on a parental airs and scolded: "Don't discuss this issue with your dad in the future... It's getting worse and worse. , I have to make a rule in the future, you can't take care of my affairs, but I can take care of yours. There are only two in our family, so you can't be the head of the family, right?"
"Dad, I didn't snatch it from you. I'll just talk about it... let's not talk about it. Drinking, that's settled. I have to leave on the second day of the first lunar month. The training camp lasts for about half a year. It must be very strict. It's stated in the confidentiality agreement , without permission, you can't even make phone calls." Yu Zui said, as if he was a little worried about this profiteer father.
"Let's go, go far away... I know you are in the police circle. I don't worry about it. I can't see you if you put me in front of me. You are either causing trouble or getting into trouble. Today, I even hit someone's police car. Be honest when you go out. Don't cause trouble. Dad will bring you more living expenses, and put some money in the new environment for the supervisor, so that he can take care of you... By the way, I haven't asked you yet. I gave you 8,000 yuan when I left last semester. Looking at the money in the card, there is no less than 7,000 more? Didn’t they steal from someone outside again?”
Old Yu comforted him, but unexpectedly he remembered this matter again. Based on what he knew about his bad son, he was really afraid that his hands and feet would be dirty outside. Yu Zui hesitated for a while. Five thousand of the money was given by Jie Bing, and another one thousand and five thousand was a poverty subsidy. As for the small food and drink expenses of the police academy, he has the ability to gamble with the mouse and beanbags. There is no need to spend pocket money at home. He didn't want to say it at first, but his father chased him impatiently, and he said impatiently: "Dad, this is a poverty subsidy, which is given by the school."
"Poverty? Subsidy?" Lao Yu was stunned for a moment, his family had already escaped poverty, so what
"You don't understand this. The state now provides subsidies for poor students in various colleges and universities. You are a laid-off worker, unemployed, right? I am also a single-parent family. I meet all the conditions for applying for poverty subsidies. Money, I can’t be afraid that people will laugh at me and refuse to collect it? Don’t tell me, Dad, your status is very valuable now. Every time I petition, I’m stopped, and I’ll tell you about your situation. Said how miserable our father's life is... ouch, the interviewer was very polite, and sent me to the door every time... just fucking didn't solve the problem." Yu Zui said with a smile. There is indeed a difference. After a long time, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
No, Lao Yu was overwhelmed when he heard that, he patted his son's head and said, "Oh, my son is really smart, yes, you don't need the face, but you don't need the money. In the country, parents cannot be subordinated, and people have to rely on themselves."
For Dad, Yu Zui has never hesitated to praise him. It is such a great sense of accomplishment to develop a fruit stand into a fruit shop.
The father and I ate a cup, burped again and again after eating, and got drunk and blindfolded. Even if he was drunk, my father didn't forget that he had to replenish the goods in the morning. If he wanted to go to bed early, he would have to get up at three or four o'clock. Yu Zui helped his father into the bedroom and covered him with a quilt, his father's drinking capacity was not as strong as his stomach's, and he was almost fainted in twos and twos.
After turning on the electric heater and setting it up, I glanced at the messy bedroom, and felt a lot in my heart. No one in this house tidied up the mess, and it was still the same as ten years ago, not like a home. The father who was snoring on the bed opened and closed his nose, and there was such a happy smile on his face with his eyes closed.
"Yo, dad is dreaming, Auntie He."
Yu Zui thought to himself, turned off the light, and gently closed the door.
