District 9

During the period when Qin Yu left, it was almost as if Big Ya had grown up here with Sister Hua. Except for going home to sleep at night, he was here almost all day long. Sister Hua also had a good impression of the child Daya. Although he doesn't say much, he is quite diligent and can help Sister Hua clean up the store, so Sister Hua allows him to stay here and brings him food every day. Half an odd job.

In addition to the above superficial reasons, Sister Hua actually has some unknown selfish motives. That is, he knows that Qin Yu works for the superintendent, and if she can take care of this child, then if something happens in the store, maybe Qin Yu can also take care of her. After all, the favor is mutual.

During the time that Daya stayed in the store, he had seen this strong man beating Sister Hua countless times, but he rarely discussed this matter with Xiangxiang in private.

why?

Because although Daya is young, he understands things early.

This strong man's surname is Zhang. He is a gangster from the surrounding streets. He is always surrounded by a few gangsters. He does whatever he can with the money and does not have a fixed occupation. But because he is quite fierce and has a very aggressive style of doing things, most people are not willing to provoke him.

Sister Hua and Lao Zhang are concubines. They often discuss life in the small room upstairs, making a lot of noise. But the relationship between the two of them is not very pure, because Lao Zhang has nothing to do, and he also patronizes other female friends in the store, but none of them are paid, which is the kind of free prostitution.

Some people are curious, saying that if Sister Hua does this, then if the customer doesn’t pay, isn’t it a loss of blood? What's more, it doesn't matter if she doesn't charge money, then the sisters below can't make any money, so what can they do here?

In fact, there is a deeper reason for this, that is, Sister Hua's store is not taken care of by either official people or people on the ground. Usually when something goes wrong, Sister Hua will go to Lao Zhang. In addition, although Sister Hua is usually a bit obsessed with money, she is very loyal to the sisters below, and everyone also feels that in this business, we really need a "friend" like Lao Zhang. After all, in the stable era, there were those stupid people who just drank a little wine and refused to accept the control of the heaven, let alone this day and age.

Therefore, after little Da Ya understood these complicated interpersonal relationships, he was very careful to avoid discussing this matter in front of Xiang Xiang, because he knew better than most children what self-esteem was.

But in recent times, Lao Zhang has been drinking and acting out more and more often. He loses everything every time, and then comes to the store to ask Sister Hua for money. Not only did she want to be a prostitute for free, but she also wanted to earn some money. However, Xiangxiang's mood was always very low and she would often hide in the yard and cry.

In the small living room of the store, Lao Zhang yelled several times before Sister Hua walked down with her clothes on: "What are you going to do again?"

"Bring me two hundred yuan." Lao Zhang wiped the frost and snow from his beard and replied with his big yellow teeth.

Sister Hua grinded her teeth, endured the anger in her heart, walked downstairs and replied: "I haven't had any luck today, how can I give you two hundred yuan?"

"Stop nagging, I'll pay you back if you win."

"I really didn't." Sister Hua sat on the chair angrily.

"No, I'm going to talk back to you, and you have to shut me up no matter what." Lao Zhang threw his coat on the sofa, walked to the counter, and said with a slight frown: "Hurry up and get me the money. , they’re still waiting for me to go back there.”

Hearing the sound, Sister Hua opened the drawer with a bang, pointed at the dozens of dollars inside and said, "Look, do I have two hundred dollars here?"

Lao Zhang was stunned for a moment, then reached into the drawer across the counter and grabbed all the money inside: "Let's put some more together."

"I can't get it together." Sister Hua waved her hand and said, "You take the money and leave quickly."

"Do you think I'm a stinky beggar?" Lao Zhang slapped the table, glared and shouted: "Without me taking care of your store, you guys just want to sell it, but you can't stand here. I don't care how much money you have. What's wrong? This is what you should give."

"Old Zhang, you stand eight feet tall, why do you talk so dirty?" A girl in the store couldn't stand it, so she stood up and said, "Do you think it's easy for us to make two dollars a day? If anyone has a way, Are you willing to do this? It’s all for survival, so don’t go too far!”

"What's the matter with you? Get out of here." Lao Zhang turned around and pushed the woman.

"Old Zhang, if you continue like this, you just don't want me to do it anymore." Sister Hua waved her hand to signal the woman next to her to be silent. She just looked at Lao Zhang expressionlessly and said, "I let you take care of me so that I can I can help you earn some money and eat, and the sisters can also support their children. But if you want it so much, I can’t afford it!"

"Okay, I won't argue with you anymore." Lao Zhang pinched his nose and replied like a scoundrel: "You give me another two hundred today, and I won't care about your store's affairs from now on. We will completely It’s settled.”

"That's what you said last time."

"What the fuck, you stinky bitch, why are you talking so much nonsense?!" Lao Zhang became anxious, stretched out his hand and pulled out Sister Hua's hair and cursed: "Would you give it to me? If you don't give it, I'll give it up today." You close the door."

"Old Zhang, you have some humanity, okay?!"

"I have you!" Lao Zhang held Sister Hua's hair with his right hand, placed his left arm horizontally on the counter, and swept it in the opposite direction.

"Crash!"

There were things on the counter, and he was knocked to the ground in an instant. Lao Zhang immediately raised his leg and kicked the chair over: "Damn it, it's such a waste of money, do you believe that I will destroy your store? !”

"You're too stupid."

Sister Hua was so angry that she gritted her teeth and started fighting with Lao Zhang. But how can a woman's strength compare to that of a man in his prime?

Lao Zhang pinched Sister Hua's neck with his left hand, and slapped her face several times with his right hand: "You dare to fight back, are you at a loss? You can ask around, who dares to fight with me? !”

"Lao Zhang, you've had enough."

"Release your hands."

"...!"

Five or six sisters couldn't stand it, so they stretched out their hands and started pulling.

Lao Zhang turned around, punched and kicked them, knocking all the people to the ground, and shouted with squinted eyes: "I don't want two hundred today, I want two thousand. If I can't get it, I will Immediately call someone to come over and destroy the store."

Beside the wall, Daya looked at Lao Zhang coldly. After being silent for a while, he turned around and ran outside.

Although he is young, he has a unique life experience. He knows that it is best for outsiders not to interfere in such ambiguous matters.

Stepping to the door, Daya stretched out his hand to push the door open. Just as he was about to turn around and call out Xiangxiang, he suddenly heard a crisp sound coming from behind him.

"I kill you!"

Xiangxiang held a glass bottle and suddenly hit Lao Zhang on the head. Her face was full of tears and she shouted with hatred: "I told you, if you hit my mother again, I will kill you." "

Lao Zhang turned around with bleeding forehead and looked at Xiangxiang numbly.

Everyone in the room was stunned.

Xiangxiang took half of the wine bottle and, with her eyes closed, ran towards Lao Zhang and stabbed him in the chest.
