Return to the small mountain village in 1986

Chapter 394: Do good deeds and develop informants
In the evening, He Dayou came to visit with two gift boxes.

He Dayou said with shame: "Mingcheng, I'm sorry. I used to be ignorant and fool around all day long, which worried the elders in the family and embarrassed my brothers and sisters. Now I have changed my mind and will never do that kind of thing again. . But I have never formally apologized to you. This time something like this happened, I felt very uncomfortable."

He Dayou took the lead in trying to rob Gao Mingcheng, but ended up suffering a loss at the hands of Gao Mingcheng. He originally wanted to teach Gao Mingcheng a lesson with the help of his cousin Xiao Song.

Unexpectedly, Gao Mingcheng turned out to be Gao Ju's nephew.

So the matter was settled. He Dayou suffered the loss, but he also admitted it.

Later, under the care of his cousin, he joined the police station as a co-op, and he gradually drifted away from the people and things he used to do.

After this happened, his cousin called him to come and formally apologize. When his parents found out, they also asked for it. His parents helped him buy this gift.

Gao Mingcheng looked at He Dayou, but he didn't blame He Dayou. After all, when he first got involved, the younger brothers who gathered together were just a mob.

In his previous life, he had been around a lot, so he knew that one person should do things for the other.

Gao Mingcheng said: "I accept your apology, but this matter has nothing to do with you, so you should take this gift back."

He Dayou refused to take the gift back, and quickly waved his hand and said, "My parents bought this for me. If I take it back again, they will definitely think that you have not forgiven me, and they will break my legs!"

His expression was exaggerated, which actually made Gao Mingcheng laugh.

He took a look at what He Dayou brought, which contained two bottles of wine and a box of mooncakes.

Counting the days, in ten days it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival.

He Dayou said it sincerely, so Gao Mingcheng accepted it.

Seeing that Gao Mingcheng agreed to accept the gift, He Dayou breathed a sigh of relief. He thought for a while and said: "Actually, Maozi and Monkey are both poor people. Maozi has no parents or other relatives in his family. He only has a mentally retarded younger brother. He often Too poor to open the pot, Monkey’s father left early, and his mother raised two children alone, and the family often had no food, so Monkey would go out and steal things.”

"The two of them are uneducated, they don't even know a few words, and they can't find a job at all. They can only do odd jobs occasionally to earn a living. I won't do that kind of unscrupulous thing in the future, either. I tried to persuade them, but their situation, alas..."

He Dayou sighed.

Sometimes when a former brother is having a hard time, he will give him a few dollars, but if he doesn't want more help, he won't.

After all, his ability is limited.

Gao Mingcheng was silent. He had already known something about Maozi and Monkey.

He looked at the cabinets piled in the corner of the backyard. These were accidentally damaged by the Central Plains Five Tigers and could no longer be kept in the store, so they were replaced with new ones.

However, although these cabinets have traces of knives and axes, they do not actually affect their use and can only be repaired appropriately.

So he said: "Let's do this. I have a batch of unwanted furniture at home, so give it to Mao Zi!"

Mao Zi tipped him off after all, which can be regarded as a credit.Although I gave him ten yuan before, seeing that his family is in trouble now, it’s better to be accommodating.

Anyway, these furniture are useless, and selling second-hand furniture is not worth a lot of money.

He Da was stunned for a moment, then smiled and thanked Mao Zi: "Hey, thank you very much."

Now that he decided to give it away, Gao Mingcheng was too lazy to pile things in the backyard.

His building does not occupy a large area, and the backyard is already full of things.

So he directly moved the cabinets, clothes hangers and other furniture onto the bed of the tractor, and before the light outside completely disappeared, he delivered the things to Mao Zi's home.

Mao Zi never expected such a good thing, so he was flattered and thanked him.

Gao Mingcheng walked into the house, looked around and found that the room was very damp.

It rained last night, but it stopped this morning.

But Mao Zi's house was wet everywhere, which was obviously not normal. He looked up at his head, but it was night and he couldn't see the condition of the tiles on the roof beams.But you can guess that the tiles must have failed, which is why the water leaked.

Mao Zi's younger brother is about seven or eight years old. Although he is mentally retarded, he has a very well-behaved personality and will not be violent or hurtful.

At this time, he stood there obediently, playing with the corners of his clothes with his hands, and looking at Gao Mingcheng timidly.

When Gao Mingcheng met his eyes, he felt that the child's eyes were very clear and uncontaminated.

Looking at the child's clothes, the clothes were old and big, and they looked ill-fitting. His hair was also messy, as if he had cut it casually with scissors.

Mao Zi saw that he was looking at his younger brother, so he said: "My mother had a difficult delivery when she gave birth to my younger brother. She died just after he gave birth to my younger brother."

Oh, it seems that it was brain damage caused by lack of oxygen, which is why he became mentally retarded.

Gao Mingcheng thought so in his heart.

His family runs a clothing store, so he likes to give clothes to people. Now he felt sorry for Mao Zi's younger brother, so he decided to give the child some clothes.

He said to Maozi: "Come to my store tomorrow and I will give your brother two sets of clothes to wear. By the way, what is his name?"

Maozi said: "Yangyang! He didn't have milk to drink when he was a child, so he was fed goat milk from a family in the village. So he was called Yangyang."

Gao Mingcheng was speechless for a few seconds, and then said: "The name Sheep Yang is okay, but don't call it Sheep's Sheep, call it Sandianshui's Yang, Western style Yang."

Yangyang and Yangyang sound the same, but the former has the familiar feeling of a pet name.

Maozi didn't understand either, so he just stood there dumbfounded.

He Dayou patted him on the shoulder and said, "Why don't you thank me quickly? I'm much more educated than you!"

Maozi thanked Hu quickly.

Gao Mingcheng looked at him and said: "It seems that autumn has already entered, and the rain will gradually increase in the future. Your tiles should be re-done before winter. Your house is already old. After it is soaked by rain, It’s more likely to break, and if it collapses, where will you and your brother live?”

Maozi's face was full of shame and he hung his head in embarrassment.

Since his father left, the tiles in the house have not been replaced.

In these years, he had to go out to make money and take care of a mentally retarded younger brother. Naturally, his life was a mess.

He Dayou thought for a while and said: "Mao Zi, do you have the money to buy tiles? If not, I will lend it to you first, and you can quickly use it to buy tiles. The labor cost will be saved. Call the two brothers." Just come and help.”

Although the house is dilapidated, it can still last for a few more years after the tiles are renovated. After the house becomes dry, the furniture and clothes will not be easily damaged.

Mao Zi immediately said: "I have money to buy tiles. I will go to the tile factory to buy them tomorrow."

Gao Mingcheng came here only to give him furniture and did not shoulder the important task of leading him out of poverty and becoming rich, so he decided to leave.

But before leaving, he thought of one thing.

So he stopped and said to Mao Zi: "Since you often hang out on the street, please pay more attention to the news on the street. You can find time to come to me every week and talk to me about the street news." It’s your job. Of course, I won’t let you work for free, I will give you money.”

Before he said he would give him any money, Maozi had already nodded and agreed.

Gao Mingcheng subscribed to several newspapers, but the newspapers could only let him know some big news in the world, but they could not keep him informed of some local small things in a timely manner.

This time he asked Maozi to inquire about something, it was also his sudden idea.

In this way, if someone wants to deal with him next time, as long as he reveals the clues in advance and someone informs him, he can reduce the losses in time and nip the danger in the cradle.

Mao Zi had grudged Gao Mingcheng before and felt that he was too harsh. After beating him up, he was in pain for many days.But now he feels that Gao Mingcheng is really a good person!
So he said with assurance: "Okay, brother Mingcheng, don't worry, if there is any bad news for you, I will be the first to tell you!"
