Is there anything more useless than a soft body? Tangning had seen that this four or five-year-old child's body was even more fragile.
He hugged the porcelain doll and said to the child who was always calling the woman "Nanny", "I'm going out to play. I won't be back for now."
Excuse me, I'm going to quit this.
Before Tang Ning could take a step with her short legs and run away, Zeng's mother squatted down and picked up Tang Ning.
Tangning had no power to fight back. He stared with his eyes wide open in confusion as Zeng's mother lifted him up high. Although Zeng's mother was not tall, only about 1.6 meters tall, the moment she lifted Tangning up, including the length of her arms, Tangning was honored to experience a 2-meter perspective.
The little boy felt extremely dizzy. Tang Ning found that the combination of a small child's body and a delicate body was really more than the sum of its parts. He was almost spinning out of his eyes and could barely hold on to the porcelain doll in his hand.
The woman lifted Tangning up and spun her around. Then she hugged her and asked, "Do you want to go out and play again?"
It seemed like Tang Ning was going to go out again, so he started to act like he was holding Tang Ning up high.
Tangning blinked blankly, her dark and shiny pupils seemed to be covered with a layer of water, pitiful and cute. Her delicate face looked more like a doll than the porcelain doll she was holding. "I don't want to play anymore."
The woman carried Tang Ning in one hand and walked into the room. She closed the door and let Tang Ning go. Tang Ning was still dizzy and almost fell down. He staggered and grabbed the woman's thigh, then managed to stand steadily.
"Mom doesn't have time to accompany you right now, so you're playing by yourself." The woman touched Tang Ning's soft and smooth hair with the back of her hand. There was a tuft of hair standing up on little Tang Ning's head, which stubbornly stood up again after being pressed down by Zeng's mother.
Tang Ning nodded obediently and hugged the cold porcelain doll with both hands.
There was a clock hanging on the wall, and the time shown on it was 4:50 in the afternoon.
Tang Ning saw that the time was still 12:00 AM when he arrived at Zeng's door. However, the time and state of affairs had changed as soon as he arrived. He had no idea if Zeng's father was drunk right now.
Did Tang Ning really understand? Some people say that there is no fixed routine in A-level books. He stood close to the door, ready to run away when Zeng's mother was not paying attention. While he was vigilantly observing Zeng's mother, Zeng's mother found a chair to sit on, bent down, and picked up the wooden box on the table.
It was a wooden box that could cover the entire thigh. It couldn't really be called a box. It could only be said to be a square wooden board with the edges at a certain height to prevent the things inside from falling out.
Tang Ning looked at the things on the wooden board in a daze. It was very strange. There were mainly two parts. One part was made up of iron nail-like parts that were less than one centimeter in size. These parts were piled up together. Another part was made up of iron ring-like parts. The last part was a combination of the first two parts.
Zeng's mother placed the board on her thighs and quickly put the two different parts together. She then carefully placed the finished product on the edge of the board. Her fingertips were wrapped with white tape, which was stained iron gray by the parts.
What are you doing
This is an assembly work system explained.
Tang Ning saw Zeng's mother raise her hand and press her eyes with the back of her hand. This mechanical work seemed to be very harmful to the eyes, and Zeng's mother's eyes were full of bloodshot.
Zeng's mother was busy with work and didn't have much energy to pay attention to Tang Ning. Tang Ning tiptoed carefully to open the door. The moment his little hand touched the door handle, a huge force suddenly came from the door!
The strong alcohol surged in Tang Ning's face, and he was hit by the door without warning. He fell to the corner with a bang, and his forehead and nose were hit repeatedly by the door. The pain was so severe that Tang Ning burst into tears on the spot, and his head was buzzing.
I heard a drunken man's voice: "Fuck, these people just run away after winning the money! Run! I'm running! They're running away after playing cards with me."
Tang Ning covered his nose with one hand and used the other hand to fumble with his baby. He couldn't stop crying because of his physical condition. He curled up in a corner like a wounded animal, whimpering softly.
The cursing voice suddenly stopped, and the door against the wall was suddenly pulled open. Tang Ning looked up in horror, as if he saw a sturdy figure as big as a hill. He felt oppressive, and then he met a face that was red from the alcohol.
The fierce eyes stared at Tang Ning, as if he was looking at a rat in a sewer. For a moment, Tang Ning felt that this person wanted to kill him.
Tears streamed down her face, dripping onto the porcelain doll in her arms. Tang Ning's body was shaking violently.
The man's gaze shifted from Tang Ning's face to the porcelain doll in Tang Ning's arms.
After the collision just now, a crack appeared on the porcelain doll, and the crack showed a scarlet color, which was cold and ominous.
The man looked like he had seen something horrible. His expression twisted and he said in a rage, "Ju Yajing! Do you want to die?! You're just letting me cry here alone?!"
His roar was so loud that it sounded like a speaker shouting in her ear. Tangning couldn't even hear what the man was saying for a moment.
Tangning heard Zeng's mother's voice, "What happened again? Again!"
The man left this small corner, and an even louder roar resounded throughout the house: "Damn it! All you do every day is to skewer these things! You don't even cook! You don't even take care of your children! How much can these things cost?! This money-loser!"
"Ahhh!!!" The woman's painful scream sounded, seeming to pierce Tang Ning's eardrum.
Tang Ning covered his head and struggled to crawl out from behind the door. He didn't even have the strength to stand up, so he could only climb up holding the baby. When he was about to climb out of the door, Tang Ning turned his head and saw Zeng's father picked up a wooden board with various parts on it and hit Zeng's mother directly. He used a lot of force and broke the thick wooden board into two pieces.
Zeng's mother was knocked to the ground. She didn't even have the strength to move. Her limp body was like a corpse, with all the parts falling apart in front of her. The assembled parts were not strong and fell apart at the slightest touch, not to mention being thrown away by a man like this.
The woman burst into tears.
However, Zeng's father did not stop. He threw the broken wood board away and picked up the wooden chair beside him.
not good!
If you smash it like this, someone will die!!!
"Dad! Don't hit Mom!" Tang Ningshi shouted.
The man who was picking up the wooden chair stopped moving. He slowly turned his head and stared at Tang Ning.
It is difficult to describe the look in his eyes at this moment. He does not look like a human, nor like a ghost. If I must say something, it is that he has a strong animal nature.
Little Tang Ning hurriedly climbed out of the door, hoping to end the nightmare in front of him.
But when he crawled out, nothing in front of him changed. He was still the same as when he was a child. The man behind him was still holding the wooden chair, staring at him like a beast waiting to devour. "Are you running? I didn't hit you."
Tang Ning couldn't help but tremble.
"Are you going to run out and tip off again? Are you going to accuse me of beating up your mom again?" The man put down the chair and walked towards Tangning. His calm tone suddenly rose, "Fuck, this piece of shit—"
The woman who was lying on the ground suddenly hugged the man's thighs tightly, crying and shouting to Tangning, "Run! Run faster!!!"
Tang Ning's ears buzzed. He held the baby in his arms and ran towards the house. Suddenly, the door of the neighbor's house across the street opened and a boy about seven or eight years old rushed out. He had bruises all over his body and blood on the corners of his lips. When he saw Tang Ning, he asked in surprise, "Tang Ning?!"
Tangning raised her eyes and recognized the person from the familiar features and eyebrows, it was Lin Yun.
Xiao Lin Yun carried Tang Ning on his back without hesitation, and the two of them rushed towards the building together. Tang Ning was still feeling lucky to have met Lin Yun the previous second, but the next second he saw the two great-fathers chasing him from behind, and he wished he could die.
"Ahh—" A shrill scream came from the building. It was the voice of Zeng's mother.
Tang Ning looked up the building in panic and saw the great-father dragging the great-mother towards the stairs by her hair, while chasing after Jiang Mianmian, who looked to be about eight or nine years old.
Zeng's mother's scalp was covered in blood. She covered her head and screamed. Jiang Mianmian raised a slingshot, put a glass bead on the slingshot, and hit Zeng's father's eyes cleanly.
The man blocking the corridor covered his eyes and wailed. Lin Yun took the opportunity to carry Tang Ning on his back and bypass Zeng's father, rushing towards the building like crazy.
The door opposite Jiang Mianmian was also opened. Lu Yuhua, who was about eleven or twelve years old, took Tang Ning from the panting Lin Yun's back, and they rushed upstairs together.
The two doors on the first floor were opened at the same time. Although the fourteen-year-old Bai Wuliang and the fifteen- or sixteen-year-old Zhou Kang were taller than the other players, they were still too thin compared to their great-grandfather who was 1.8 meters tall, so they could only rush out through the door.
The five players rushed forward together, and the five great-fathers chased behind. Jiang Mianmian shot the last marble in her hand, causing the man in the front to roll down, causing a little chaos for the four men chasing behind, and buying a few precious seconds of time to escape.
Tang Ning was already on Bai Wuliang's back at this time. He guessed that Zeng Yishuang, who was about 17 or 18 years old, should appear on the first floor.
At the age of seventeen or eighteen, one is already very close to adulthood, or in other words, one is already an adult.
It should be easier for Zeng Yishuang to escape than for other players.
As Tangning was thinking this, he saw the door of the building. The person climbing out of the door was not Zeng Yishuang, but Zeng's mother, who was covered in wounds. Zeng's mother shouted in despair, "Youyou, run, run, Youyou!"
The man's curses came from the house: "Bitch! You are all bitches!"
Bai Wuliang rushed to the door carrying Tang Ning on his back. Tang Ning saw the girl in the room holding a kitchen knife. She looked like Zeng Yishuang, but had super short hair that only boys have.
Her face was covered in blood.
The abdomen was also covered in blood.
The man who was wrestling with her was also covered in blood, and he was also holding a knife in his hand, a fruit knife.
The woman at the door kept begging her to run away, but the girl stared at the man who looked similar to her, like a madman: "Go to hell!!!"
