Chapter 154 Jia Dongxu’s Lucky Day
After speaking, Uncle Kong stood up and patted Zhu Xuefeng on the shoulder.
"Your godmother is very optimistic about you, and so am I. Today, I said everything that needs to be said...".
“Be on your own in the back, don’t let us down.”
Turning around to go out, I found two basic skills books given by Coach Gao when he was in the sports school on the table. This is preparation. Leave it to your younger siblings to learn.
"You still like this. It's true that you have a wide range of hobbies. I don't have time today. Let's have a good chat when I come back from my business trip."
"Xuefeng, let's go."
Director Wang greeted him outside the door. Zhu Xuefeng woke up from Uncle Kong's reminder and hurriedly chased him out and sent him to the alley.
"Okay, let's go back. If you have time, go and see your godmother. I'm always running away and don't have time to accompany her."
After seeing the two off, Zhu Xuefeng came back. Sitting in a daze in the room, this suggestion was checked. It was impossible. Seeing how busy Uncle Kong was, you knew that they would not have the energy to take care of such small things.
The old party secretary's sly eyes suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. Yes, he was probably responsible. This old man was always looking forward and backward and had no responsibility.
…
"What, what did she say?"
As soon as Liu Jiaqi came out of Xia Yuhong's house, Chen Rui asked anxiously.
“She didn’t show the slightest surprise that Zhu Xuefeng went to Beijing University. You think it’s reasonable.”
“How about we having a meal together before the start of school? Are you here?”
“Yes, she said she would definitely come. It’s rare that we all stayed in the capital. Xia Changqing and Zhou Qin also called, but she said that Zhu Xuefeng is at work now and will definitely not be able to come. , he works overtime every week, and she can’t see him.”
“He’s at work. What’s going on? Isn’t he admitted?”
“I can’t understand. I will definitely learn from him and go to the school to find him when the time comes.”
…
Silly Zhu didn't come for dinner, and they ate quietly. Zhu Xuefeng remembered that today when the sports car experiment team came back, they should have arranged a celebration banquet.
After the younger siblings helped He Yuyu pack up and grab their belongings, the three brothers and sisters went to practice in the courtyard outside Dongzhimen.
"Brother, what day is tomorrow?"
"It seems to be a good day."
As soon as we entered the yard, the little girl was smiling and making jokes, full of expectations. Looking at the eldest brother, the second brother is also having fun.
"It doesn't matter what day it is. I just remember that tonight is a day for practicing martial arts. Have you practiced your horse steps well these days?"
I guess the two little guys want to be lazy again. If I'm not at home in the morning, I can't do anything about it.
"That's not the case. My second brother and I insist on running and horse walking every day. I can last for seventeen minutes, which is just a little bit behind my second brother."
"Just persist. If you exercise now, you will benefit for the rest of your life. Just persist and I will check your results later."
Seeing that the eldest brother did not realize what day tomorrow was, Zhu Xuemei became anxious.
"Brother, tomorrow is the 18th, what day did you say it is?"
The 18th, the 18th, tomorrow is my 18th birthday!
I really misunderstood my younger brother and sister. Zhu Xuefeng felt warm in his heart, but he deliberately pretended not to know. "Tomorrow is Wednesday, oh, okay, I won't tease you anymore, tomorrow is my eldest brother's birthday, right?"
It turns out that my younger brother and sister want to celebrate their birthday tomorrow , Nowadays, there is little care. The younger brother and sister just want to cook a meal for their elder brother tomorrow night. This must be said in advance. Zhu Xuefeng comes back late from time to time, or just eats overtime.
"I won't work overtime for the big thing tomorrow. I'll go home directly after get off work!"
In the evening, the three of them practiced in the yard again.
…
The elixirs were also clarified. The Chuanxin Dan that I had never understood is actually a detoxification agent. (received from beating Xu Damao) three small returning pills, two Qi-nourishing pills, and one Qi Power Pills (Small increase in Qi Power).
None of them are worth taking now, so keep them all.
…
It was already very dark, and Jia Dongxu was digging a small hole in the corner of the warehouse. The hole was too small, and it took Jia Dongxu countless nights to dig it.
I didn’t dare to dig too big. Firstly, I was afraid of being discovered. Secondly, I was afraid of collapse. I cleared the bricks one by one. There were also piles of weeds at the entrance of the hole. These were also piled by Jia Dongxu. Along the outside There was a pile of more than ten meters in the corner of the wall, just to avoid being discovered outside.
Actually, there is a small forest outside the warehouse, and beyond it is a small road. Very few people pass by here, but for the sake of safety, there is still a pile of weeds.
After stuffing a full bag of scrap metal out, Jia Dongxu took a wooden board and leaned it against the hole, then got out and squatted quietly in the corner.
Not long after, several bicycles passed by on the path in the distance, and flashlights flickered in the woods from time to time, and then slowly walked away.
This is a nearby patrol team. Jia Dongxu has already figured out the approximate patrol time and will pass by again in about two hours.
I stood up and put the small bag on my back. It was too heavy, but for the sake of my stomach and hope, I still tried hard to carry it.
Following the previous route, he easily avoided the guards of the rolling mill and got into a small dilapidated house nearby. After a while, Jia Dongxu came out again.
This was a dark den that Jia Dongxu got to know when he was stealing scrap iron when the steel rolling mill was not strictly regulated. Later, when the steel rolling mill was tightened, it didn’t come much anymore. It was very close to the steel rolling mill.
I carry more than ten kilograms at a time and buy four more buns. No matter how much I carry, I can’t carry more, which is not far away. Otherwise, I will die. The old man in the dark den is very dark, but there is nothing I can do. This is the only way. There is a way to recycle. It is much cheaper to recycle here than at the recycling station, and the price of steamed buns is even outrageous. Who makes Jia Dongxu have no way and no food stamps?
But Jia Dongxu thinks it’s worth it. Four buns can basically guarantee that you won’t go hungry. The money saved can also be used to drink a few drinks after going out. There is hope for this day, and now I can barely keep up with the work. Get up to speed.
The steamed buns are cold, but it has no effect. They can still fill the stomach. I eat them while walking. Now I have one in the morning, one in the evening, and one in the middle of the night.
Jia Dongxu’s arrangements are very reasonable. Every time he finishes a meal, he adds a bun to keep him going until the next meal.
I was unlucky this afternoon, but now everything is going well. I walked through the woods and reached the corner. I looked carefully and found that there was no danger.
The patrol was still going on for a while, and the guards of the steel rolling mill could not see this area. Jia Dongxu bent down and got into the woods, constantly pushing aside the branches blocking the way. As if his luck had run out, he was inadvertently hit by something on the ground. I tripped over a tree root.
Fortunately, the guards were not alerted, but the buns were thrown out. Jia Dongxu groped anxiously on the ground. The light here was not good, so it took a long time to find one, and the other two rolled away to nowhere.
This is related to whether we can have enough to eat tomorrow. It is very important and must be found. A black shadow passed by, startling Jia Dongxu, and meowed, damn wild cat. The flashlight in the distance came again.
I have no choice but to starve tomorrow. I quickly opened up the haystack and returned to the warehouse. I pulled the weeds back to the entrance of the cave, loaded the bricks again, and piled some discarded materials to block it. My heart was still pounding. Thumping.
Put away the last bun and resist the temptation. This will be a supplement for tomorrow. It seems that I have eaten it three times.
I was very unlucky this afternoon. I fell down several times for no reason. Go to bed quickly. I have to move things tomorrow, but I couldn't fall asleep despite tossing and turning. I miss my mother-in-law, and I haven't had any meat for months.
I already have more than three yuan in my pocket...
At dawn, I found that the last bun was missing, and there were a lot more squeaking sounds in the warehouse. These damn mice...
