Le asked Wei Qian to work the daytime shift first, and then move to nighttime when his arm was out of the cast.
The night shift in the nightclub is very well paid, two sets of people work in shifts, a shift is only four hours, but the money is triple that of the daytime, which means that he can make a very generous life for his family with only a four-hour shift every day - of course, the one who gets the high salary is the hitman, not the kind of bitter cleaning boy like Asako.
With Wei Qian's seniority, originally could not work on this glorious night shift, Le in order to show closeness, personally and the manager commanded, the promotion.
Pocky envy, but Wei Qian is not much joy, smoking instead more fierce.
The future was menacing and confusing, and even if Wei Qian was a money grubber, it would be hard for him to express joy over those extra earnings.
This day, Song Xiaobao and Wei Zhiyuan home from school, Wei Qian put a more than two pounds of small watermelon cut in half, so that the two of them a person and a half with a spoon to dig and eat, eat and finish writing homework to go.
Song Xiaobao sat cross-legged on the sofa, eating watermelon soup with his mouth full of watermelon soup, and said excitedly as he ate, "Brother, Sister Niu Niu is dead."
Wei Qian froze, "Who?"
"Niu Niu sister, so high, face has two small nests, eyes are like this, comb ...... such hair, in front of the small bungalow over there to live ......" Song Xiaobao describes the eyes on reaching out to prop open Their eyes, described to the hair to pull their own hair, a speech to say the hands and feet, all body language, see her first grade language is a reason for failure.
Wei Qian leaned back and avoided her a little farther, "You give me a good seat, speak properly, spray me in the face - dead? How did you die?"
"Die like this." Song Xiaobao finished, rolling his eyes in place and holding her half of the watermelon to the side, a line of watermelon juice dribbled out of the corner of her mouth in response.
Wei Qian: "......"
Although his little sister is still young, there is a kind of extraordinary mimicry ability that pierces through the phenomenon to the essence. For the first time, Wei Qian felt that it was a pity that this girl was not good looking, or else when she grew up, she might be able to become an actress.
Wei Zhiyuan calmly added from the side, "Died from eating rat poison."
Song Xiaobao revived from his death state and busily asked, "How did you know?"
Wei Zhiyuan said calmly like a person who has seen the world, "She is foaming at the mouth, her face is that color, she must have died from eating rat poison, I have seen it before."
Song Xiaobao said adoringly, "How come you've seen everything? Is rat poison delicious?"
Wei Zhiyuan's eyebrows jumped at the tip of her eyebrows at her stupid beyond expectation question, after three seconds, he decided to go along with this stupid person with insufficient brain blood supply, so he said in a serious and proper tone, "It's not bad, it's not bad, the flowery ones, the red ones are watermelon flavored, the green ones are apple flavored, and the rats love them all."
Song blearily said, "Crispy?"
Wei Zhiyuan: "Crisp."
Wei Qian: "......"
Wei Zhiyuan was a child after all, Wei Qian could actually see that he sometimes deliberately acted stupid, but Wei Qian had always thought that Xiaoyuan was trying to please Xiaobao, and hadn't thought about himself.
...... After all, he's been cared for so little in his life that even he neglects himself.
Originally, Wei Qian had heard this matter, because in the end, he did not remember what "Niu Niu" was through Xiaobao's narration. But this thing he ignored did not pass, evening, three fat and hemp together bought vegetables, to his home to cook, serving food, three fat deliberately dissatisfied kicked Weiqian: "I come to serve you as a master, right? Don't sit there and wait to eat, isn't there another hand? Get the chopsticks and bowls!"
Wei Qian raised his voice, "Asako!"
Pocky agreed sharply and was about to go to work for him, but was scared back by Sanfat's glare.
"Pocky," Wei Qian slowly stood up and commented pertinently, "Your old man is a real wimp!"
Pocky was not ashamed but honored, and said beautifully, "Yes!"
Wei Qian: "......"
Wei Qian wandered into the kitchen, toes picking open the cupboards, and lazily glanced into the hut, where the two little brats had finally subsided, one occupying a corner of the table, writing their homework in pairs.
Wei Qian was suddenly in an uncontrollably good mood, feeling that the house looked like a home with such two little wheezing things in it.
"Qian'er," at this time, SanFat suddenly spoke up and said, "In the next two days, keep an eye on our sister Xiaobao, and don't let her go out and run around after school."
Wei Qian casually responded, "What's wrong?"
Three Fatty said, "You know about Nuno, don't you?"
Wei Qian: "Huh?"
"Living in front, the one with pigtails, a year older than Xiaobao." Three fat to the two small house glanced, lowered his voice to Wei Qian's ear, said, "That girl is not this afternoon, own eat rats medicine death."
Wei Qian lazy to listen to these other people s family shit, his own shit are not considered over it, so impatiently looked at the three fat: "I see you are idle egg pain it fat, all day long is not matchmaking and pulling fiber is three rats and four eyes of the shit, you ......"
With a stony expression, Three Fatty slapped him nonchalantly on his injured arm, "Keep your fucking voice down!"
"Hiss ...... fuck me/you ......"
Three fat said seriously: "You listen to me! That little girl was spoiled, the child was timid, a few days past she did not dare to tell adults, these two days of heat, I heard that the last pus underneath, I do not know how much suffering, and then did not dare to say, yesterday did not think of a moment to open up, they ate rats to commit suicide - you on your sister to pay attention to the line?"
Wei Qian frowned at him, "Bullshit ......"
"Who's bullshitting you? Who's talking shit about this? People are dead! Am I that unethical?" Three Fatty glared at him, "I'm fucking serious, keep an eye on our sister these two days, do you hear me?"
Weiqian reached out and gestured at his waist: "That little kid has thin arms and legs, isn't it just a chopstick when you poke it there? What's so great about that? Who is it? Is he sick?"
"Can't talk to you ya unenlightened grandson, every day you just know money, you know fighting, what else do you know?" Three Fatty impatiently waved his hand, "Some people just can't get a hard-on for normal women, there are those who like those kind of kids who haven't grown up, and there are those who like men - Nyonya's mom is about to cry like a psychopath, yelling to call the police, and is now locked up at home by her grandmother. "
Hearing the word "man", Wei Qian frowned with discomfort and asked, "Why don't you let the police know that her grandmother is demented in her old age?"
"The old lady brain does not turn, she felt that if this matter reported to the police to spread out, their family can not raise their heads to do people. Alas, in short ...... "Three fat said this, suddenly stopped his mouth, because he looked up, is seeing Wei Zhiyuan do not know when lying on the side of the kitchen door, also do not know how much he heard.
Three fat gave a fright: "Aigoo this unlucky child, how to walk are not moving, with the weasel like!"
Weasel Wei Zhiyuan's face was impassive, as if he hadn't heard the two of them, puffing out his chest and saying, "I'll help my brother carry the plates."
"Hey, this little weasel, is quite filial!" Three Fatty's bushel-like slap glued itself to the back of Wei Zhiyuan's head, almost wrapping his little head in, and hastily pushed it towards his back, "Hurry up and go."
When he finished speaking, he and Wei Qian exchanged glances, and the two of them coincidentally stopped what they were talking about.
For several days afterward, Wei Qian picked up and dropped off the two children at school.
With a small, defeated school that starts too late in the morning and finishes too early in the evening, Weiqian has a very difficult time matching their schedule.
The morning can barely make do, the afternoon after school at that time is especially bad, more than three o'clock, Weiqian from work is still early, he had to drag an arm in a plaster cast to run both ways, every day as fast as possible to rush to the small school, rushed to the two pups to get home, a person to buy a 50 cents "double stick popsicle", and then lock them both at home, and then rush! Then I locked them in the house and ran back to the house as fast as I could to get reincarnated.
Literally, he really ran with his legs, Wei Qian because to transfer to the night shift side, there were a lot of people secretly look at him in the eye, he was afraid of delaying too long, to give others the opportunity to talk about, but also do not want to give up that little car money.
He thus lived to develop a pair of flying legs to catch up with the bus.
Song Xiaobao that heartless does not know the heartache of her brother, on this life is quite satisfied, because every day there is one and a half of the "double stick" to eat ...... more than half from Wei Zhiyuan, Wei Zhiyuan will usually break the double stick, eat half of their own first, the remaining half most of the time is cheaper to Xiaobao. The remaining half of the stick will be cheaper for Xiaobao most of the time.
Good for nothing - he'd completely figured out this little sister's pissy behavior and gotten very good at dealing with her.
So the donkey pulled the mill like back and forth for ten days, when Wei Qian went to the hospital for a review, on the spot by the doctor split his head and scolded, put forward a serious warning: "If you want to do this again, you'll be waiting to grow a mountainous eighteen bends in the arm!"
Wei Qian feel quite some loss of face, because the hemp son with two small things waiting outside, this big two small a water has not seen the world, Wei Qian feel in front of them to be lectured is very loss of face, their own big brother's authority has been undermined.
Wei Zhiyuan didn't say a word, feeling as if he had been knocked in the heart, aching and sore.
A certain manly protectiveness grew in him, while the body remained young and awkward.
The contradiction between the growing desire for a strong heart and the limited physiological condition of a child constitutes Wei Zhiyuan's main psychological contradiction before puberty.
In the middle of the night that day, Wei Qian heard the kitchen ping pong messy thoughts, he reached out and touched, next to the boy did not know when to get up, Wei Qian rubbed his eyes and cursed low, walked into the kitchen, raised his hand to pull open the kitchen light, while raising his hand to block the blinding light, while impatiently said, "The middle of the night do not sleep, what are you blindly tossing and turning?"
Wei Zhiyuan was dragging a long steel pipe, innocently looking up at him.
The half of the kitchen attached to the balcony is usually used for cooking, and the other half is used to pile up all kinds of sundries, and there is no lack of all kinds of murderous weapons that Wei Qian casually threw in there.
Wei Zhiyuan then dragged out a scrap steel pipe from this pile of debris, he purposely picked a shorter one this time, while he had his hands, he wouldn't be dragging them on the ground in disgrace like last time, and he would feel very powerful when holding a weapon in his hands.
Wei Qian froze, "What are you doing with it?"
Wei Zhiyuan glanced at his arm with a new bandage, straightened his chest and said, "I'll take it to school, you don't have to come tomorrow, I'll bring Xiao Bao back, when I get home I'll watch that she doesn't run around, and I'll unlock the door."
He said this with a certain matter-of-fact attitude, as if he were a little adult who could carry things.
Wei Qian felt the heart of the strange nest panic, this picked up the boy is not a white-eyed wolf, understand, know the heartache, but on the face, Wei Qian is still not polite frowned, a hand Wei Zhiyuan pick up, open the faucet to his little dirty hands rushed: "You can still patient - wash your hands, give me an honest sleep to go to bed, and then toss me beat you! Honestly go to bed, toss and turn again I'll beat you up!"
Wei Zhiyuan obediently did not argue, big brother's expression although stinks, words are not good, but Wei Zhiyuan does not care, but rather love to listen, he is a child who has suffered from real abuse, to distinguish that kind of real malice, which is just a different form of concern.
But although Wei Zhiyuan was silent at the time, the next day when Wei Qian wasn't paying attention, he still stuffed that water pipe into his school bag.
In the afternoon when Wei Qian ran to pick up the people at his usual time, he was halfway there when he saw Xiaoyuan heading in the direction of his home with Xiao Bao.
The boys had the audacity to go home on their own without waiting for him.
Because they were on the opposite side of the road, the two of them didn't see Wei Qian, and Wei Qian didn't go over, but just followed far behind.
Though well nourished and grown up a bit, the little boy was only two fingers taller than the little girl, yet he was like a strong protector, with a serious expression, pulling his sister with one hand, holding up a dirty steel pipe with the other, and making the little walk home as righteous as breaking through the Heavenly Gate.
Wei Qian some laughter, he all the way to see the two children to the home, Wei Zhiyuan very serious to let Xiaobao in the house first, and then he was like an underground worker holding up that ridiculous steel pipe, poked his head out of the home near the careful reconnaissance of a number of, failed to detect the enemy, but found that his brother is hanging his arms, stood in the no

Watching him from the far side of the wall.
Wei Zhiyuan froze, and then, he saw that not only did Wei Qian not get angry at him for trespassing, he instead smiled at him.
Wei Qian raised that characteristic, extremely lean chin of a teenager and nodded at Wei Zhiyuan, signaling him to lock the door.
Wei Zhiyuan obediently turned around and went into the house, unlocked the door, climbed onto the bed, peeled back the curtains, and lay down on the window, watched Wei Qian light a cigarette and finish it in silence, sort of resting his feet, and turned around and walked away with a quick step.
"Brother hasn't even taken a sip of water yet." Wei Zhiyuan thought so.
That night, when Wei Qian went home he was surprised to find that in the enamel cylinder on the table, someone had cooled a cup of white water for him, and when he reached out and touched it, it was not too cold and not too hot, and the temperature was just right.
The following week was spent like this, with Wei Zhiyuan taking Xiao Bao from school alone, and then Wei Qian adorning the two of them from afar, watching them arrive home and lock the door before leaving.
Finally, it had been a little over a month since Niu Niu's incident, there hadn't been any other untoward incidents in the neighborhood, and Wei Zhiyuan seemed very dependable, so Wei Qian decided to stop picking up and dropping off the two of them, and the three of them each resumed their own lives on track again.
And it turned out to be a real problem.
