Chapter 356: Stones in the Toilet
"Hao Jianjun, do you care about your nephew? It's New Year's Eve and he's still smashing my windows!
"If you don't care about this kid, I'll take care of him! I'll let you smash my glass and I'll beat you to death!"
Hao Jianjun just returned downstairs and parked his newly replaced bicycle.
After unloading the goods, he carried the bag and went upstairs in two steps. He took out the key from his pocket and inserted it into the hole to open the door.
I heard a shout behind me, my hand trembled, and I turned the key wrongly.
Luckily I didn’t use too much force, otherwise the key would have broken inside and the door would have been taken apart again.
I calmed down and thought, what's wrong with him lately? Why does all the bad luck happen to him?
It's really strange.
She changed her expression, turned her head and said to the person who came over: "Auntie, the child is ignorant. We are all neighbors, please be more tolerant."
"Hao Jianjun, I can tolerate it once or twice, but it has happened so many times this month.
Who would be happy if a hole was smashed in the glass during Chinese New Year? Don’t you think so?
The aunt holding Qin Sheng was really strong. No matter how the boy struggled, she couldn't break free.
She was so angry that her nose was burning with anger.
The walls of the tube-shaped buildings are thin and not soundproof, so any noise from one house can be heard by the neighbors next door.
Many people opened the door, stuck their heads out, and leaned against the door to watch the show.
"Uncle, save me."
Qin Sheng flapped his wings hard and stretched out his claws towards Hao Jianjun.
"Jianjun, you've been raising this kid for several years, is it true that the Qin family has no news at all?
You've been taking care of the child all these years without hiring anyone else, and this child is just a troublemaker. How can you possibly live like this?"
There was an old man who was watching the fun and didn't take the child's angry look seriously.
This guy is simply the glass window terminator in this area.
Having lived with his uncle since childhood without parents, he developed a lawless character.
If a person is not watched carefully, he can make a lot of noise and make his presence felt all the time.
"His father is a bad guy, his mother ran away with someone, and Qin Sheng is just a poor guy that no one wants!"
A little kid stuck his head out and happily sang Qin Sheng's own little tune.
"What are you talking about?"
The old man hit the child openly, but he actually thought the same thing in his heart.
"Why did you hit the child? Is there anything wrong with what my eldest grandson said? Didn't Qin Deshui drown in the river because he did so many bad things?
That Hao Li hooked up with Xue Hua's man before the man died, broke up someone else's happy family, and ran away with the money.
Why are you pinching me? Isn't this embarrassing thing true? I didn't just make it up.
Come on, go home with grandma. Remember this from now on: don’t play with indecent people.
You never know what people are saying behind your back; some people are just bad at heart."
The aunt who was holding Qin Sheng also felt bored, so she let go and pushed the child with his head down to Hao Jianjun, who still had a smile on his face.
"My glass is broken, you have to pay for it. Hey, you dare to stare at me!"
Raising his fist, Qin Sheng made a face and hid behind Hao Jianjun.
Hao Jianjun: "Auntie, I'm short on money lately. How about five dollars?"
"Alright, but Jianjun, don't blame me for being harsh. You really need to take care of this kid of yours.
If we don’t do anything about it, something big will happen sooner or later! I’m putting it this way! Believe it or not.”
"I'll tell him when I get home, take care, and let's all go. I'm really sorry for not letting him go during the New Year."
Hao Jianjun bowed his head with a hypocritical smile on his face. After the people left, he grabbed Qin Sheng's arm with his big hand.
The two men entered the house and slammed the door behind them.
"Why do you have to go out of your way to smash people?"
Hao Jianjun threw the bag in his hand casually, scratched his hair irritably, and asked in a low voice.
Qin Sheng had a smile on his face, as if he had not done it.
He was not panicked at all, and even came over to take credit: "Uncle, I heard everything, it was that kid who was scolding me from behind."
When others scolded him, he would not only scold them back even louder, but also aim his slingshot and smash their windows.
If he fails the first time, he will use a bigger stone to hit you again next time you scold him.
The glass broke within three uses.
The accuracy is getting better and better now. Basically, as long as the stone is big enough, there is no glass that will not break.
"You can't smash it during Chinese New Year, right? That's unlucky."
Hao Jianjun couldn't win the argument with Qin Sheng at all. The kid had his own ideas and was very stubborn.
"I understand. I'll smash it after the fifteenth day of the lunar year next time, at least to give people a good New Year.
Uncle, I have sold out the goods from last time, so please give me some."
Qin Sheng came over. The nine-year-old boy was already able to help sell things.
Hao Jianjun sat on the sofa and rubbed his waist.
"It's there. Pick it yourself. Keep it hidden. It'll be hard to stop this mess if it gets out of hand."
Every time Qin Sheng bought goods from him, he didn't know who he sold them to.
Anyway, I gave him half of the money after the sale, and since he didn't ask about it, I didn't care anymore.
"I know."
Qin Sheng squatted in the corner of the door, opened the bag, and took out everything from it.
His eyes sparkled with excitement; selling this was much more fun than going to school.
Besides, it’s tuition money, so selling this will put money in my pocket.
He is not a fool, so he naturally knows what is important.
"Be careful, I got this batch of goods with great difficulty. If it's damaged, it will cost me a lot of money."
Qin Sheng patted his chest and laughed, "Uncle, I'm broken. This thing must not be broken!"
Hao Jianjun interrupted, "What nonsense! It's so unlucky to say that on New Year's Day!"
"Uncle, what are we going to eat on New Year's Eve?"
"I can just cook a few dishes, will you drink with me?"
He was quite satisfied looking at his tall nephew who looked like his sister.
Even if I don’t have any skills in the future, at least I can make a living by relying on my looks.
"Okay."
…
The entire Xie family gathered in the backyard, watching the Spring Festival Gala intently.
"Why are there so many bell sounds this year? The clanging is really a bit creepy."
Gao Xiulan touched her arms and got goosebumps.
Xie Yi replied: "Add chimes to the music."
He continued to peel the melon seeds, and a small pile of melon seed kernels appeared on the plate.
The sound of the chimes has a heavy feeling, which seems a bit out of place when mixed with the festive and peaceful background music.
Xie Da Jiao smacked his lips and shook his head as he watched.
"Look, this big guy is like a clock again. It's really unlucky during the New Year."
Lin Xiaotong ate too many melon seeds and her mouth felt a little dry, so she drank some water. A pair of comedians appeared on the screen.
"The skit is here, it's 'Mutton Skewers', this is bound to be hilarious."
Orange was eating some sweet dried fruit, and Big Orange was lying on her legs.
The cats at home are all solid, and it feels like there is an extra weight on their legs. If they sit for a long time, they have to change their posture.
Zhima lay beside the coal stove, warming himself with warmth, his eyes narrowed in comfort.
Gao Xiulan was so amused that she couldn't stop laughing.
"This is hilarious! This kebab vendor is so convincing!"
Lin Xiaotong nodded: "He really looks a bit like Uncle Batur."
In addition to clothing vendors like Gao Xiulan's, Xidan Night Market also has a wide variety of food stalls.
Batur is from Xinjiang Province and is very skilled in selling mutton skewers.
Sometimes I buy some, bake a few pancakes, and eat them with cucumber rolls.
This year is the fourth Spring Festival Gala. A series of programs such as "Mutton Skewers" and "Delivering Vegetables to the City" have directly brought people's livelihood hotspots to the screens of people across the country.
The performers' vivid performances not only make people laugh, but also make people think deeply about the phenomena reflected in the show.
Even street vendors can perform on the Spring Festival Gala, so it’s not shameful to be a self-employed person.
Gao Xiulan sighed, "I'm afraid that after the New Year, there will be a lot more people willing to come out and set up stalls, and the stalls will be crowded by then."
She basically doesn't set up her stall during the day because it's cold in winter.
In addition, Xiong Chuan recently said that the supply of electronic watches in Pengcheng is not very stable, so she plans to wait until after the New Year to open the store.
Gao Xiulan was only half right. When she went out to buy vegetables the next morning, she heard a lot of people talking about setting up stalls.
However, my wish during the New Year was hindered by another matter.
During the Spring Festival of 1986, CCTV broadcast the first eleven episodes of "Journey to the West".
It immediately attracted everyone's attention, and everyone in the house who had a TV was watching it.
The main hall of Old Xie's house was packed with people, all of whom came to watch the color TV.
Zhang Dazui took a sip of the jasmine tea handed to him by Lao Zhou and said, "You know what, it's still more enjoyable to watch color TV. This master is really handsome."
"I think it's just average. This monkey is quite clever."
Wu Shengli dislikes this kind of pretty boy the most.
Diao Yulian was unhappy: "I think you are just like Zhu Bajie!"
A mouthful of tea came out of Wu Jiabao's nostrils and sprayed all over Hu Tou's face.
Guoqing turned around and asked his father: "Dad, did I also jump out of a crack in the rock?"
Ernengzi laughed out loud.
"Son, I can't hide it anymore today. I found you in the toilet."
"Really? Dad, did you pick it up from there too?"
Ernengzi's smile froze.
