Chapter 39 Tattooed Youth
Chapter 39 Tattooed Youth
"Mom, we'll be back in about an hour. Make dinner."
Then, with his child on his back, he whispered, "How is Dad's progress in contacting the children's parents?"
"Did you hear that? Your son is asking you, you old cripple." Grandma Cai kicked Liu Guangqing, but the other party didn't say a word and just endured the anger.
"Your father is not making good progress. He only managed to contact Yiming's uncle one day. From the tone of his voice, the situation is not good."
"Have we contacted our brother yet?"
……
He glanced at the four children playing behind him and saw that they were not paying attention to him, so he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Uncle, when are you leaving?"
Liu Jun responded from a distance, "Coming." He said to the old man on the phone, "They are urging me to come back. I will bring them back first."
Fortunately, he made the call in advance and knew the situation.
I discussed some countermeasures with the elderly on the phone.
If I go back directly like this, I might hurt the child's feelings.
"Liu Lang, take the things and don't put them on the ground!"
He sat on the ground with his clothes as a cushion, which made Liu Jun look a little angry.
"How long will it take us to get back? My legs are sore already."
Zhang Yiming and Lin Meixia are similar.
No spirit at all.
"It's almost time. I'll take the subway back later."
Li Kang noticed that there was a subtle change in his mood after Liu Jun made the call.
Not only the mature Li Kang noticed it, but also the thoughtful Meixia noticed it.
I couldn't help but hold Li Kang's hand tightly.
However, Liu Lang and Zhang Yiming would occasionally hold the game console and laugh foolishly.
Although I was physically tired, I felt rejuvenated when I thought about playing games when I got home.
"It's good not to let them know."
Lin Meixia's mood was like a roller coaster, and she walked behind with Li Kang.
Liu Jun walked in front carrying a TV, while Liu Lang and Zhang Yiming walked in the middle with their arms around each other's shoulders.
In the setting sun, their shadows became longer and longer.
Cross the passing railway track in front and you will reach the subway station.
"Brother Kang, what if my father doesn't like me?" Lin Meixia has asked Li Kang this question more than a dozen times.
Every time I get closer to my loved ones, I become more worried.
"No, Meixia is so beautiful, how could your father be willing to give you up?"
Li Kang himself was unsure, and who knows what Lin Weihua would think.
What Li Jianhua thinks is none of my business.
As soon as I thought of this, my heart skipped a beat.
It seemed like the regret of my previous life was warning me not to be rude to my father.
"You still have hope. Once I know where our father is, I will go to see him as soon as possible. By then, you should calm down."
Meixia felt much more at ease when she heard Li Kang's words.
The love and care Li Kang gave him was second only to that of his mother.
If she were asked to choose between her father and Li Kang, she would definitely choose Li Kang without hesitation.
But that was also the last thing she wanted to see.
------
The sky was overcast and the air was heavy.
After getting off the bus, you will arrive at Shilong Road Station.
Liu Lang and Zhang Yiming had walked the route once and were already familiar with the way home.
As soon as I got off the bus, I hurried home.
"Be careful~"
As soon as he reminded him, Liu Lang got into trouble.
He was holding a ham in his arms and carrying his and Kang Ge's clothes, so he was a little restricted in his movements.
I had to run back and accidentally bumped into a man on a bicycle.
"Watch your eyes when you walk!" The other person was a young man in his twenties with tattoos on his arms. He said something very unpleasant, "Your mother gave birth to you, a piece of shit, and now you've fallen down."
Liu Lang felt a little guilty at first, as he knocked the cold dishes and beer bought by the tattooed young man all over the floor.
But when he heard this person cursing his mother, he clenched his fists.
The tattooed young man fell off his bicycle and broke his knee.
"What's the matter! You hit me after I bumped into someone~!"
Li Kang came in front of Liu Lang, and Liu Jun put down the TV on his shoulder.
Two people stood in front of the tattooed young man, putting a lot of pressure on him.
"You want to bully the few with your numbers, right? I tell you, I'm not someone you can bully. I can call over a dozen people with just one phone call."
"We don't mean to bully you. It's wrong for a child to accidentally bump into you. But please don't speak so harshly, he didn't scold you, did he?"
"I don't care if he scolded me or not, I scolded him anyway! What can you do? Pay me for the wine, the cold dishes, and the medical expenses for my leg!"
Li Kang directly took out a hundred yuan and threw it in his face.
"I'll compensate you with the money. Can you please apologize for the dirty words you just said?"
The tattooed young man thought, one hundred yuan is so easy to come by? It is half a month's salary for him.
Some little thoughts began to arise in my mind.
"Ouch, my legs and waist hurt, I can't stand up."
"Call an ambulance for me."
Li Kang and Liu Jun could see that this was a trick and an attempt to blackmail others.
"Forget it. I think I should call the police." Liu Jun bent down and was about to take back the hundred yuan.
And he spoke in Shanghainese.
How do outsiders reason with locals?
When the police arrive, they will definitely check his various documents first, and then take him back to take a statement and conduct an inspection, which will cause a lot of trouble.
I grabbed the hundred dollars. It would be better to get this hundred dollars first.
"This hundred yuan is enough!" He limped over and picked up the fallen bicycle.
Some of the remaining cold dishes are not dirty and can still be eaten.
It can't be wasted.
"You just left like that. You just cursed at me and didn't even apologize."
"Oh, yes. I'll apologize right away."
Li Kang patted Liu Lang on the back of his head and said, "You should also apologize to others and don't be so rash in the future."
Even though Liu Lang still had some resentment, he still had to listen to Brother Kang.
The tattooed man held the bicycle and walked to the other side.
I went to a small shop and bought a few more bottles of beer, and then bought two kilograms of braised meat at a roadside stall selling cold dishes.
His family lives in a shantytown near the suburbs.
Outside are the vegetable fields of Shanghai people, and inside are migrant workers from all over the country.
Here, you can build a shed and live here. You just need to pay a few dozen yuan in rent to the landowner.
The environment is even dirtier and worse than the alley.
When he reached the door, he shouted inside, "Little monk, are you still there? Come out and help me get my things."
A bald man with dark skin walked out of the tattooed man’s house.
Without saying a word, she helped him carry the things in his hands into the house.
As soon as I entered the house, it started raining heavily outside.
Ding Xiaodong started complaining as soon as he entered the room.
"I was so unlucky today. I was hit by a kid."
When he saw a pile of wires in the house, he was a little dumbfounded. "Where did you get so many wires?"
"Didn't you say that copper wire could be sold for money? So I went and got some back."
"You are quite savvy," he squatted down and picked up a wire, which scared him so much that he broke into a cold sweat: "Don't tell me, this is their phone line?"
Guo Yixing nodded honestly, "Only telephone wires have copper."
