Siheyuan: Why is my crossing so ugly?

Night Dire, the way it eats is really scary, and the amount of food it eats is simply beyond the scope of human understanding, shocking the world.

As a last resort, Du Weiguo chose a place to eat, which was a very secluded roadside stall that only sold wontons and Zhusheng noodles in a back alley.

Not far from this roadside stall, there is a 6-story residential building across the road.

On the edge of the roof on the top floor, a girl in a white floral dress suddenly climbed up the wall of the roof with great difficulty.

The girl is about 16 or 7 years old, with beautiful features and a slender figure. With Du Weiguo's eyesight, she can see clearly.

The girl's skirt was so muddy that it even had a tear, and there was a white paper flower pinned to her temple.

The little girl's eyes were red, and there were still tears on her face that hadn't dried up. Her expression was mournful, and her eyes were full of determination.

Du Weiguo raised his eyebrows lightly, stood up abruptly, picked up the wet handkerchief on the table and wiped his hands, thinking to himself.

This child should have just had a relative pass away. Could it be that she was wronged in some way and wanted to jump off the building?

Du Weiguo has never been a Holy Mother. After leaving the country, he has killed people like hemp. He has gone through hundreds of battles and waded through the sea of ​​corpses and blood. His heart is as hard as iron.

However, Du Weiguo still couldn't do such a thing after all. After ten years of drinking ice, his blood was not cold.

"Night Dire, don't eat too much, hurry up and work!"

Du Weiguo kicked Dire angrily, and let out a low scolding, this guy has already eaten the food like a madman, and he kept showing off, selectively ignoring his orders.

There is a mysterious spiritual link between Ye Dire and Du Weiguo, and Ye Dire is naturally clear about his desire to save people.

It's just that it is busy enjoying its appetite, so it chooses to pretend to be stupid.

After being kicked and scolded, Ye Dian couldn't continue to pretend to be stupid. Although he had a hundred reluctances in his heart, he didn't dare to disobey Du Weiguo's order.

There was a humanized helpless expression on the dog's face, and he raised his head lazily, a faint red light flashed away in his eyes.

The thin girl on the top of the building had just struggled to climb up the wall when she seemed to hear a sudden sound behind her.

Her eyes were wide open, with an incredulous expression on her face, tears welled up, and she turned her head abruptly.

Immediately, as if she was going crazy, she jumped back to the roof without hesitation, cried and ran towards the door, and after only two steps, her eyes went dark, and she fell limply to the ground.

In front of Ye Tan, Ye Dian snorted very arrogantly, turned his head and glanced at Du Weiguo, his eyes were full of pride and a hint of impatience.

It probably means that you have the nerve to interrupt my uncle's meal just for such a stupid thing, are you out of your mind?
Du Weiguo was also too lazy to get angry with it, and reprimanded angrily: "Okay, eat, eat, you pig."

Then Du Weiguo turned his gaze to Ma Wu again, and said in a deep voice, "Master Wu, I'm going to do something, you wait here for me for a while."

"Okay, sir."

Ma Wu has been stealing eyes on Du Weiguo and Ye Dian's constant petty movements, and he is confused when he doesn't know it.

But he is old in the Jianghu, with a strict mouth, he didn't even ask a superfluous sentence, and his sense of propriety is perfect.

Du Weiguo didn't talk nonsense, he took a step and walked towards the house across the street. Since he met him, he had to ask why.

This residential house is an old-fashioned tube building. There are dozens of households on each floor, door to door, and households connected to each other. It is narrow and narrow, like a pigeon cage.

There is no water in the building, and there are chamber pots and toilets in the narrow corridors, filled with a dirty and unpleasant smell. There is no lighting in the corridors, and it is dark, especially suitable for shooting ghost movies.

Du Weiguo walked calmly, picked up the steps unhurriedly, went straight to the top floor, squatted down, helped the little girl who had fainted on the ground, and gently shook her shoulders.

The little girl was extremely thin, she leaned softly in Du Weiguo's arms, slowly opened her eyes, and stared blankly at the handsome man in front of her.

After a while, she reacted abruptly, struggled to sit up, hugged her chest subconsciously, shyly and timidly asked:

"You, who are you?"

She spoke Cantonese with a slight inland accent, her voice was soft and soft, and Du Weiguo was in a trance, suddenly thinking of Zuo Lan who was far away in Sijiu City.

Ordinarily, Zuo Lan should be 13 years old this year, and she should be a big girl, and I don't know how she is doing now.

At present, the situation in the north is complicated, and it is difficult to explain in one word. The news has been completely cut off, not to mention Zuo Lan, and even Hu Fei can't be contacted.

It's not that Du Weiguo doesn't want to contact, but he really can't and doesn't dare. At this juncture, if he rashly sends a telegram to Hu Fei with an overseas radio station, the consequences will be, hiss~
Du Weiguo was a little distracted, the little girl in front of him took a peek at him timidly, saw that he was in a daze, his eyes were clear, and he didn't look like a bad guy, so she boldly asked again in a low voice:
"who are you?"

Du Weiguo shook his head with a smile, suppressed all these messy thoughts, and said in a gentle voice as much as possible:
"Oh, I'm a policeman, I just passed by here, little girl, what's your name, have you been wronged?"

Du Weiguo casually made up a reason that is relatively easy to accept. Although the current reputation of the police on Hong Kong Island is very mediocre.

But if something happened, he was still relatively trustworthy. Sure enough, when the little girl heard that he was a policeman, her fearful expression disappeared a lot.

It's just that a pair of big and charming eyes were instantly covered with mist, and he choked up and said:
"You are Sir, my name is Amei, I, I~~"

Before the words fell, Amei's tears fell down, and the pear blossoms were raining, and she told her experience intermittently.

Her first name is Xue Liwen, and her nickname is Amei. She is 15 years old this year, and her ancestral home is Dahe Village, Baihua Township, Huidong County, Huizhou. She fled to Hong Kong Island.

Amei's father was seriously injured in the early years of the war. When she was only a few years old, he fell ill and passed away.

In the days that followed, Amei and her mother were always dependent on each other, clenching their teeth and persevering. At a young age, she has suffered all the sufferings of the world, and she is extremely sensible.

It is true that the hemp rope is only broken at the fine points, and that bad luck is only for the poor.

There is a lot of gossip in front of the widow's house, and Amei's mother is beautiful and romantic, and she is a well-known beauty in all towns and villages.

And a man who died at a young age, with no one to rely on, such a little widow will naturally attract countless malicious covets.

The brigade secretary of Dahe Village was one of these rascals. More than once or twice, he tried to steal incense and jade overtly and secretly.

Amei's mother has a strong and pungent personality, and she would rather die than obey, but fortunately, everyone is from the same village and belongs to the same clan, and those who go around are considered relatives.

The secretary of the brigade didn't dare to use too much force, to do things completely, and to force too much, so he could only be dry and greedy all the time, and he still failed to achieve good things.

Angry and angry, she made things difficult for her and her mother and daughter, but they managed to be peaceful. Her mother never remarried, and she worked hard alone, pulling Amei to grow up.

Last year, strong winds swept through, turned the world upside down, and all peace was broken.

The secretary of the brigade is clever and intelligent, good at speculating, and in the midst of the chaos, he has seized amazing power. I dare not say more about this, but I understand it.

With the power in his hands, he immediately cast his evil eyes on the long-coveted sister and mother, and decisively stretched out his demonic claws.

Finding any ridiculous reason at random creates an opportunity to get along alone, but Amei's mother is also a smart woman, not only has the backbone, but also has a hint of courage in her character.

That day, when she was called away by the brigade secretary alone, she hid her intentions. When the bastard showed her true colors and wanted to rape her.

Amei's mother first pretended to be ingratiating, and then used the scissors she secretly hid, and cut the lifeblood of the color batch with a single scissor.

Then, A-Mei’s mother took A-Mei out of Dahe Village in the dark, and walked all the way day and night, eating the wind and drinking the dew, walking for a full 13 days, and fled to Hong Kong Island abruptly on foot.

When they arrived at Hong Kong Island, both mothers were tossing and dying, like a beggar.

A-mei has a natal uncle on Hong Kong Island, and she wrote to them before, and they came all the way to join him.

The first few months were fine, with my uncle taking care of me with all my strength, life was going smoothly. The mother and daughter also breathed a long sigh of relief, and started a new life full of expectations.

Both Ah Mei and her mother are ingenious and hardworking, and soon found jobs in plastic flower factories in the New Territories.

Although the income is not much, both mothers are used to suffering and live a simple life. This humble income is more than enough for them, and they even have a small surplus.

So far, the mother and daughter of sister-in-law have come to the end of their hardships, and they have begun to look forward to a better life in the future.

However, bad luck has never been willing to let the poor people go easily, and they have only been stable for a few months, and they have just finished the New Year, so their good life is over.

Amei's mother got married early, and she was only 16 years old when she was born. This is commonplace in the current rural areas, but it is nothing new.

Therefore, when A-mei turned 15 years old, she changed from an ugly duckling to a slim white swan almost overnight, and her mother will be 31 years old, which is the most charming age for a woman.

Life on Hong Kong Island is relatively stable, and after several months of raising the baby, the two mothers have regained their vitality, becoming more and more beautiful day by day, and their beauty can no longer be concealed.

In the present era, which is still a little bit wild, the time sequence is chaotic, and women from poor families are born too beautiful, which is definitely a disaster rather than a blessing.

The looks of their wives can only be regarded as Xiaojiabiyu. For Du Weiguo, who is used to seeing top beauties, it is naturally difficult to catch the eye.

But for the old color skin who has never seen the world, it is very coveted, especially the mother-daughter flower, which makes some color critics with ulterior motives and evil tastes ready to move.

Just after the New Year, Amei’s uncle was dragged to play cards by some workers. At the beginning, he won small wins every time. Basically, he could get back a roast goose, old wine, cigarettes and so on every day.

For a week, Uncle A-Mei was completely addicted, and became addicted directly. The more he played, the more he played, and soon his savings were emptied. Before he was a teenager, he owed a lot of gambling debts.

Among them, the biggest sum was owed to a gangster who was nicknamed Sheng Fan, a total of more than 8000 Hong Kong dollars. This is a lot of money, and it is already an astronomical figure for a small family.

Uncle Amei works in a soda factory in Kowloon, an assembly line worker, and his monthly salary is only 200 yuan, which is enough for him to work for 4 years without eating or drinking.

So far, this vulgar fairy game has been completed, and Sheng Fan finally tore his face and showed his fangs.

Every day, he would bring a few short mules over to ask for debts, and every time he would beat his uncle and sister until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and he was forced to pay back the money at the usury interest rate.

Usury, also known as usury, also known as Yan Wangli, is a game of nine outs and thirteen returns, revolving profits, and many tricks and thieves.

After gritting his teeth and paying back the interest for a few days, Uncle Amei couldn't take it anymore. After another beating, Shengfan offered him an offer that he couldn't refuse.

This debt, including the principal and interest, was treated as a bride price, and Amei's mother was married to him directly, and it was written off from then on.

Uncle Amei is a timid and honest person. After several days of continuous punching, there is no pain in his body.

Now that he was caught with a life-threatening loan shark, he was so frightened that he agreed without even thinking about it.

His life was of the utmost importance, and he didn't care about his face. He knelt down in front of Amei's mother, weeping bitterly, begging in every possible way, begging for nothing.

After all, it's a brother-sister relationship, the eldest brother is the father, and the sister's mother is also out of control, and she can't just watch her brother die like this.

Even though he knew it was a game, he had no choice but to accept his fate, put his heart on hold, gritted his teeth, and hastily married Sheng Fan.

Sheng Fan's home is in the residential building at the foot. He was originally a low-class dwarf mule who had nothing to do all day long.

Eats, drinks, whores, gambles, has all the five poisons, and is still a lustful evil spirit. Within a month, the novelty towards Amei's mother has passed.

So, the beast stared evilly at the slim Amei who had already come out. Fortunately, Amei's mother guarded her tightly enough.

Moreover, Amei's mother has a strong temper. When it is critical, she really dares to go all out, so she always lets Shengfan succeed.

Although A-mei lives in fear every day, but with the desperate protection of her mother, she is finally safe and secure.

However, Sheng Fan is a lowly little mule with no sense of shame and no bottom line. Within a few days, the biggest tragedy happened.

Seven days ago, Amei's mother finished working overtime and was on her way home alone in the middle of the night. She was robbed, stabbed three times in her vitals, and died on the spot.

Today is the first seven days of Amei's mother, and it's not past midnight yet, Shengfan, a bastard, was so drunk that he couldn't wait, and wanted to rape her in front of Amei's mother's effigy.

A-mei resisted desperately. In a panic, she knocked down the drunk Shengfan with a clay pot of burnt straw paper. Seeing that Shengfan was bleeding all over his face and remained motionless, she thought she had killed someone.

I wanted to surrender, but when I turned my head and saw the portrait of my mother on the wall, all thoughts were lost, so I had the idea of ​​committing suicide.

Amei finished talking about her tragic experience intermittently, her eyes were red and pitiful, Du Weiguo asked warmly:
"Auntie, where's your uncle?"

My sister shook her head:

"I don't know. He pushed my mother into the fire pit, and he was ashamed to see others. I heard that he went to work on a boat."

Du Weiguo nodded, Amei burst into tears and asked twitchingly:

"Sir, I really don't want to go to jail, and I don't want to be shot, can you let me die by myself, I want to go down and find my mother~~"

A trace of pity rose in Du Weiguo's heart, and he stretched out his hand to rub her little head, and gently comforted her:

"My sister, I can assure you that you will never go to jail, and you don't need to commit suicide. Your mother definitely wants you to live well, are you right?"

"But, but, I killed someone, and if I kill someone, I have to pay with my life~"

Murder pays for life, this is the most simple cognition of Amei. Du Weiguo smiled and helped her up from the ground, and gently patted the dust on her body:

"I said you don't need to go to jail, so you will definitely not go to jail, let alone die. Believe me, go, take me to your house, and I'll see if this living thing is dead or not."

Du Weiguo's magnetic voice and spring-like smile seemed to carry some kind of indescribable magic power, which almost instantly ignited the still extinguished light of hope in Amei's heart.

"Good~"

A-mei stopped her tears, nodded subconsciously, let out a weak voice, and timidly grabbed the corner of his clothes.

Shengfan's house is located in the middle of the 4th floor of this residential building. As soon as the door is opened, there is a strong smell of alcohol and a faint smell of paper ashes.

The space in the room is very narrow, with a layout of one bedroom and one living room. There is a small hard board bed in the living room, and an old wooden cabinet is placed in the northeast corner.

On the top of the cabinet, there is a small rusty incense burner, and two plates of withered, not-so-fresh fruits, forming an extremely simple mourning hall.

Du Weiguo glanced at the wall. The portrait of the woman was indeed pretty, 7% similar to Amei. Then he cast his gaze on a strong man lying on the ground.

This guy is born, about 172, this height is considered tall in today's Hong Kong Island, this guy is very strong, tall and thick, with a full face.

The forehead was cut open by the pottery basin, and the paper ashes and blood were mixed together, and the blood flowed all over the face, and the original face could not be seen.

With just a quick glance, Du Weiguo knew that this guy was not dead. Although he was motionless, he was still panting.

"He, is he dead?"

A-mei hid behind Du Weiguo, trembling all over, and asked in a voice like a mosquito ant. Du Weiguo patted her arm and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, he's not dead yet~"

After finishing speaking, Du Weiguo stomped on Shengfan's calf, his eyes widened and he let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered. (end of this chapter)
