Chapter 175
Wu Changxin's wife poured Yu Dong a cup of tea, and then went to cook a bowl of noodles for Wu Changxin.
His wife is not tall, doesn't talk much, and always laughs when she sees people.
For the first ten years before Wu Changxin came to Jinling to work, his wife worked at home as a farmer. She did not come here until their children entered middle school.
"I lost my temper tonight." Wu Changxin took a bite of noodles, "It's mainly because I drank too much in the last few drinks and didn't eat a few bites of food."
Yu Dong smiled and said: "Drinking, principal, you are relatively restrained."
After a few mouthfuls to clean the noodles in the bowl, Wu Changxin took another sip of the soup, then stroked his chest and said, "Much better."
Then he lit a cigarette and said, "I heard something from my fellow villager tonight, which affected my mood a bit."
Yu Dong nodded and didn't ask anything. He believed that if Wu Changxin wanted to say something, he would take the initiative to say it.
Sure enough, Wu Changxin continued to speak: "Actually, I knew what he was talking about before. A man from our village, who is considered to be my clan brother, was working outside and got into a fight with others and was beaten to death."
"I don't have a very good relationship with him. I'm not particularly sad, just a little bit embarrassed. He is also a celebrity in our area..."
For more than an hour, Yu Dong didn't say a word, he only listened to what Wu Changxin said.
His deceased clan brother was in his thirties and had not yet married and had children.
The reason for this is that he has an intellectual disability. Although he is in his thirties, he only has the IQ of a child.
He only has the IQ of a child, which does not mean that he speaks and behaves like a child. He just has trouble turning around in many things. He usually looks just like an ordinary adult. He also likes to imitate other people and talks in the same way when he meets people.
He also likes to brag, and he can brag about anything he has heard.
When Wu Changxin went back last time, he told Wu Changxin that he was teaching in a certain primary school recently, but the teaching environment was not very good. He asked Wu Changxin how the school was like and if possible, he could apply here.
The last time Wu Changxin went back, he told Wu Changxin that he had recently been working on a project outside and cooperated with a well-known local wealthy businessman. However, the wealthy businessman was too stingy and the money was unevenly distributed. He was ready to kick the wealthy businessman away and go it alone.
Wu Changxin did not say the name of this clan brother, only his nickname.
When he was a child, he had a hernia in his crotch. Later, the hernia was removed through surgery, but the nickname has always remained.
Dadan behaves funny and different from ordinary people, so he has had many interesting things.
For example, one time he got some fish to sell at the market, and when someone counter-priced him, he didn't say anything, sold the fish to the other party at a low price, and then turned around and climbed over the wall to steal the fish again.
Having become a thief, he felt no guilt, but instead spread the word, saying that this person bullied him and deliberately lowered the price.
When many people heard about this, they thought Da Dan was not stupid, but rather cunning.
There is also a naughty boy in their village, who is much stupider than Dadan. You can see a stupid face from a distance when walking on the road. His name is Hongzi.
Hongzi likes to play with Dadan, but Dadan feels that he is not stupid and should not play with fools, so most of the time Hongzi comes over, he will be scolded by Dadan, and sometimes he will be beaten.
But when Dadan is in a good mood, he will play with Hongzi, playing things that no one else can understand.
Sometimes Dadan would take Hongzi to the local elementary school to scare the pupils, and then he would pop out and drink Hongzi away, putting on a show of a hero rescuing the pupils.
It's just that those elementary school students are not deceived at all. They are not only afraid of red chips, but also afraid of big eggs.
Da Dan also has a younger sister who is a well-known human spirit in the village. Everyone says that Da Dan’s brain was used by his sister, which is why there is such a big difference.
Later, his sister got married and gave birth to a son, who was like his mother and had a very flexible mind.
When he was eight or nine years old, he played tricks on his uncle, but his mother didn't care. She felt that her son was lucky not to be a fool like his uncle.
Later, Dadan's father died, and his sister's family moved into his house.
Later, Da Dan went out to work.
"I heard that Hong Zi came to play with Da Dan that day, and when he saw that the formation was not right, he was frightened and cried." At the end, Wu Changxin sighed, "I heard that after Da Dan died, someone went to the village to cause trouble, saying
We need to drive Sister Da Dan away because their family has a foreign surname."
Only then did Yu Dong speak: "You can't tell how stupid he is from the things you told me."
"Silly is really stupid. He can't understand many things. Many of the things he tells people are derived from imitation, just like a child. He also went to school, and he didn't go to the third grade of elementary school until he was sixteen.
grade."
"Why did he fight with others later?" Yu Dong asked.
Wu Changxin shook his head, "I don't know. I heard that the person who attacked him was working with him. Maybe it was because of the quarrel. He is a normal person. You have to treat him as a normal person. Sometimes he can
Make you mad to death."
At this time, Wu Changxin looked at the time again and said apologetically: "It's so late before I know it. I blame you for having to talk to you so much."
"Fortunately, it's only eleven o'clock, so I'll go back first. Principal, you should go to bed early."
"Okay, I'll give you a section."
"No, I just sent you back. You can see me off later. Let's send Zhang Lang to Li Lang. When will we send you back? Let's go, get some rest early." Yu Dong smiled and waved his hand, and then left Wu Chang
New home.
Wu Changxin pulled him to talk about so many things about Big Dan tonight, and he actually felt a little ashamed. He thought that he had been a cold bystander for so many years, and even sometimes echoed people's ridicule. Now that Big Dan is dead
, he always felt that he was also responsible for this tragedy.
At this time, finding someone to talk to about all this can help him feel relieved a lot.
On the way back, Yu Dong kept reviewing the story of Dadan in his mind. He felt that this was a good material and could be written into a novel.
This time, he is not going to rely on realism anymore, he is going to write more absurdly.
Along the way, Yu Dong was imagining a novel in his mind. Unknowingly, he arrived at the gate. The guard on duty in the reception room was taking a nap. When he heard Yu Dong knocking on the window, the guard suddenly stood up as if his tail had been stepped on and stood still.
Right.
"Leader, I'm sorry, I was a little confused just now. Let me open the door for you."
Yu Dong smiled and said: "I'm not a leader. I'm on duty in the middle of the night. I'm lucky."
"Unfortunately, there are few people on duty at night, and it's free. There are very few people like you, the leader, who come back in the middle of the night..." Halfway through, the guard felt that he had said a bit too much and quickly shut up.
After the door opened, Yu Dong walked straight towards the dormitory. Halfway there, a piece of white snow as big as a small fingernail fell on the tip of Yu Dong's nose. Before the snow melted, a second and third piece followed...
