Chapter 174: 2 monkeys
For example, when Dong Jie first came, Xia Hongyuan clearly had the ability to rent a house for Dong Jie to live in, but he had to squeeze Dong Jie and him into a small room.
And no matter what happened during the period, he would take Dong Jie with him. It was obvious from the last banquet that Xia Hongyuan regarded Dong Jie as his daughter-in-law who had never been there.
No wonder that almost every time Xia Hongyuan called, he would ask him and Dong Jie how they were getting along, and for a long time he was secretly letting them develop their relationship.
And what he didn't expect the most was that Dong Jie even knew that their parents had ordered a baby kiss, and even agreed to Xia Hongyuan's series of arrangements.
Logically speaking, the society today is not like before. Even if the parents of both parties agreed to set the baby money, no one knows what will happen in the future.
Not to mention the city, and even in the countryside, it is rare to hear that dolls count.
But this matter is not the point. He will come to Xia Hongyuan today, just to find out why Xia Hongyuan and Dong Jie's parents are cursed.
He just guessed before that the two would be related, but after hearing what Xia Hongyuan said just now, this matter is obviously inseparable.
Seeing Xia Feng's surprised appearance, Xia Hongyuan said with a wry smile:
"Dong Jie's child is stubborn and stubborn, but she listens to her parents very much, so she doesn't show anything about his parents' arrangement. I don't really care too much, but as my father's best friend, I am also very I like Dong Jie, so if possible, I really hope you two can be together.
But you are still young and your mind is immature, so it is too early to talk about this matter, after all, everything is just my expectation. "
If it wasn't for Xia Feng being so tight today, and he felt that the crisis might come at any time, he would never have said such a thing to Xia Feng.
Because in his opinion, even if Xia Feng is mature, he is only a 17-year-old child and has not yet reached the age of adulthood. It is very unrealistic to talk about marriage now.
But since he said it today, he wanted to give an explanation to the future, because Xia Feng and Dong Jie might have a future, but he couldn't wait for the future to tell them about it.
"Dad, I heard Sister Dong say that you and her father are comrades-in-arms, but how could you be cursed?
What happened then? can you talk to me? "
Xia Hongyuan lowered his head, and after being silent for a while, he said reminiscently:
"That was more than 20 years ago. Sister Dong's father and I were comrades-in-arms in the company. At that time, the border was turbulent, and there was always friction between the two countries.
So companies have been stationed there for a long time to deal with some small-scale conflicts.
The environment over there is very bad, there are many ethnic minorities, and they hardly speak Chinese, and they can't understand Chinese very well.
Although we live in the camp, we are very close to the local village, and sometimes we go there to help out with chores, or go to the market to buy small things.
At that time, we had a total of 6 comrades-in-arms who had a very good relationship. We once performed a very difficult task, and we were considered to be people who survived under the eyes of death together, so good that we could almost wear the same pair of pants.
So every time we have a chance to go out, the 6 of us are together, including Dong Jie's father.
Dong Jie's father is called Dong Xuefu. He has a similar personality to Dong Jie. He is a very stubborn person.
But in the same way, his ability is also the strongest among us. He has been the champion in several shooting competitions at home. Many leaders of the company like him, but he is not willing to go up and is willing to be a soldier.
We took a half-day leave that day and wanted to go to the village to play, but we happened to come across the market.
In that kind of place, there is no place for leisure and entertainment at all. If you can have a market and buy some gadgets, it is already a good leisure.
We walked around and bought some local products that are considered special products now, because we are going to change jobs and go home in a few days, so we all want to buy more.
At this moment, a comrade-in-arms named Zheng Xiangyang suddenly pulled us over and said that he saw something very good.
We asked him what it was, but he didn't say anything, just pulled us over, and when we got there, we found out that what he saw were two monkeys in a cage. "
"Monkey?" Xia Feng's mind immediately came to mind after hearing this, the monkey's sly look.
"Yes, it's a monkey.
The two monkeys sat very quietly in the cage. The moment I saw them, I was attracted by their eyes, not because they were beautiful, but because they looked at us, just like we looked at them.
Obviously they are monkeys, but at that moment, I felt that the two monkeys clearly regarded us as monkeys.
Zheng Xiangyang has some hobbies, that is, he likes to eat some game. At that time, it was not as strict as it is now. Although he was not allowed to eat some food, he would eat it, no big deal.
So we all know that Zheng Xiangyang wants to buy these two monkeys back, and then eat them together.
We all know what Zheng Xiangyang thinks. We just told him that monkeys have human nature. Whether you want to eat it or not, you can tell by the look in your eyes.
Zheng Xiangyang ignored it, but asked our opinion and said that if he wanted to try it, he would take it back and kill it. After all, they said that monkey brain is a great supplement, but he never tried it.
The local man couldn't understand what we were talking about, and he couldn't speak Chinese, so Zheng Xiangyang made a gesture to him and asked him how much he paid for the two monkeys.
The locals stretched out six fingers after listening.
Zheng Xiangyang tentatively asked if it was 6 yuan? Then he took out another 6 yuan and shook it in front of him.
Now 6 yuan is very small, but it was not too little at that time, and it was very poor there, so we all thought it was this number.
But the local man shook his head after listening to it, and then said a bunch of random things, but we couldn't understand it.
On the other hand, Dong Xuefu seemed to understand the meaning of the man and told us that the local person was probably saying that if the monkeys were bought for breeding, they would be sold for 6 yuan.
If not, then he doesn't sell it.
During the process, the two monkeys kept staring at us, the kind of gaze I still remember, a vicious stare, and the kind of indescribable viciousness. "
"You bought those two monkeys?"
Xia Feng couldn't help but asked curiously.
"Yes, Zheng Xiangyang lied to the boss, gesturing that they bought it back to raise it and would never eat it.
After that, he picked up the cage gloatingly, for fear the boss would regret it, but until we walked far away, when I looked back, the boss still held out 6 fingers to us.
I didn't understand it at the time, but later I understood. The boss's meaning with his 6 fingers was not that these two monkeys were worth 6 yuan, but clearly... worth our lives! ! ! "
