dog thief

Chapter 71

Gongchen knocked on the door of the room and opened it. Gongxun was not in the room. He hung his schoolbag on the chair and sent Shen Qingyan a message that he was home.

He walked into his parents' room to see if they were there.Gong Chen glanced around the room, his eyes fixed on the picture album on the dressing table which was pressed by a pile of sundries at the bottom.He approached and touched the slightly dirty and wrinkled album.It was painted by him as a gift to his mother, and it turned out to be worse than a tablecloth.

His appetite was not very good at noon, he didn't eat much, and he was a little hungry in the evening.There was no one at home, so he cooked some noodles in the kitchen and mixed some old godmother in the refrigerator.

The door of the living room was opened, and Gong Chen heard Gong Xun and his grandfather talking.

"Grandpa, that guy doesn't go home during the holidays, and he doesn't know who to hang out with. Look at how nervous I was during the college entrance examination. I studied hard. How many points can I get in the exam? I must have failed English again." .”

Gong Yu put down the hat on his head and sat down slowly: "Tell him to study hard at home, and he will know how to run out when he is on vacation. Our family is counting on you."

Gongchen stood in front of the boil, filtered the water as if nothing had happened, and sat quietly at the dining table to eat with his face in his hands.

Gong Xun chatted with his grandfather for a few words, turned around and walked to the kitchen, saw Gong Chen eating noodles, was slightly stunned, immediately took a cup of Coke from the refrigerator as if nothing had happened, drank it and walked to the room.

Today's Gongchen is a bit picky eater, he can't eat the noodles in the pot, but he still insists on eating here.

Gong Xun suddenly ran over aggressively, slapped the coke can and the crumpled books on the table vigorously, and shouted: "Did you move the books on my shelf, why are they crumpled?"

Gong Chen stuffed a mouthful of noodles: "No, I haven't touched anything of yours."

Gong Xun shouted angrily: "Then tell me why this book looks like it has been soaked in water? It's you, right? I put the certificate of award in it and you dug it out? Why are you so cheap?"

Gong Chen took a deep breath, stood up and slammed the chopsticks in his hand, glared at Gong Xun angrily, and said word by word: "You say it again?"

"You are cheap, you are cheap!"

"I'm cheap?" Gong Chen grabbed Gong Xun's collar, and the two began to argue and wrestle, knocking the noodles and Coke on the table to the ground, making a loud noise. "I'm cheap when I ride a horse, you and my family, where can you be noble?"

Gongchen grabbed Gongxun's arm, and was untied by Gongxun forcefully, and the two were intertwined like a ball of hemp rope.Scuffling from the dining table to the wall, twisting sideways, kicking each other hard.Gong Chen slammed the man against the wall with all his strength, burning with anger and anger.

"Who is in your family?" Gong Xun said with a smirk on his face, "You are the father who secretly gave birth to other sluts outside. Otherwise, why do you think my mother and grandpa don't like you?"

Gong Chen sneered, his face was almost earth-colored, he swung his fist hard like a heavy hammer and landed on Gong Xun's face, hitting Gong Xun's eyes with gold stars. "You eat/shit on a horse, your mouth is so stinky."

"Stop!" Gong Yu casually picked up a stick and threw it with all his strength, hitting Gong Chen's left calf forcefully.Gong Chen roared in pain, bowed up and hugged his left foot precariously, feeling numb and throbbing.

Seeing this, Gong Xun was so angry that he raised his leg to kick Gong Chen in the head.Grandpa wanted to get close to holding Gong Xun's hand, but when Gong Xun moved, he stepped on the noodles on the ground, and fell to the ground with his head on his back.

Gong Chen was stunned, his mind went blank, he rushed over quickly and fell to the ground.The old man's body fell heavily on Gong Chen's body.Gong Chen let out a cry of pain, the pain made his brain dizzy and numb, his chest, hands and feet rubbed against the smooth ground, his chest and back seemed to be crushed by a heavy blow to his ribs.

"Grandpa..." Gong Xun immediately helped him up, and cursed, "You bastard, it's all because of this person's face that made grandpa fall down. Grandpa, are you alright?"

The old man's bones were about to fall apart, he supported his waist, wailed a few times, staggered a few steps to the living room and sat down.

Gong Chen was in so much pain that he was about to spit out the noodles he had just eaten, and his body was covered with sticky noodles.The whole face was pale and colorless, he gritted his teeth and slowly sat up, rubbing his chest, the pain was burning, and he couldn't get over it for a long time.

Gong Xun's eyes were red, and he choked up and said: "Grandpa is really not my fault, it's all merit. Grandpa, if your parents talk about it, you can say it's Gong Chen's fault. I don't want to be criticized. Do you feel uncomfortable? ? Let's go to the hospital for an examination..."

Gong Yu rubbed his waist, shook his head and hissed, "Don't cry, just like a child, pour me a glass of water."

Gong Chen stood up, silently cleaning up the mess on the ground.My limbs were weak and sore, and I was upset, so I just thought about the pain in my body to cover up the discomfort in my heart.

He felt so aggrieved again, and longed to be defended even if he did something wrong like a meritorious deed, even if it was on his side.

But does this home have it?

He pinched his aching left calf, let the pain replace the discomfort, and whispered: "It's okay, Gong Chen, you've grown up, you're a man, there's nothing to be sad about. Don't cry, Gong Chen, don't let them Look down on you, they just want to see you cry, you can't make them happy. Think about happy things, think about dog thieves, but he's not by my side...No, but, it's nothing..."

After Gong Chen took a bath, Gong Deshan and Chen Jiao sat in the living room, while Grandpa was resting in the room.Gong Xun sat on the sofa on the other side, and Gong Chen slowly nestled on the small stool on the tea set table.

Chen Jiao asked, "Who will start first?"

Gong Xun was the first to speak: "I just asked him why the books and certificates in my room were soaked in water, and he beat me up."

Gong Chen glared angrily, and said sharply, "Why didn't you say what you scolded me?"

Gong Xun said with a guilty conscience: "I didn't scold him, I just said a few words. As an older brother, can't I reprimand him a few words?"

Gong Chen: "I also use the word cheap to respond to you, bitch..."

Gong Deshan roared roughly: "Gong Chen, shut up!" Then he said apologetically to Gong Xun: "Your book is wrinkled because I accidentally knocked over the water when I took it out."

Gong Xun suddenly realized, and then cried out: "He smashed the noodles on the table, and then grandpa stepped on and fell to the ground. It was all his fault. Grandpa also said just now that he hit me. Grandpa came to persuade me to fight, but he The noodles slipped and fell. If I hadn’t caught Grandpa in time, something would have happened to Grandpa!”

Gong Chen explained excitedly: "You fart, Gong Gong, I will never finish this matter with you, it is not like this at all."

Chen Jiao patted the sofa and shouted, "Gong Chen, shut up!"

Gong Xun said with tears in his eyes: "Mom, tell me, do you believe what grandpa just said? Is everything I told grandpa not enough to believe?"

Gongchen stared at the couple with red eyes, bitter in his heart, and said in a hoarse voice: "I said he started it first, do you believe it? I said he called me cheap and called me not your family. Do you believe me?" Is it right? I said that grandpa came to persuade me to fight, it was to stop Gong Xun from kicking my head, and I was knocked to the ground by Gong Xun, do you believe me?"

Seeing that they were silent, Gong Chen nodded, and said with a shy smile, "That's right, I never believed in me. Since I came to this house, I don't take the money you lost, and you also count it on me. When I was a child I felt that my hands and feet were not clean, stole your money, tied me up in the room like a dog, beat me with a hanger until I was forced to tell my mistake, and I dare not do it again.”

Chen Jiao asked with a gloomy face: "Why do you still want to find out the past? The money in the past was found on your clothes."

Gong Chen pinched his thigh, frowned in pain, took a deep breath and said, "Then have you ever thought that he put it on my clothes? Have you ever thought that he can't get his exam admission ticket by himself, and stuffed me after the exam?" In the clothes? I didn't do it, how many times do I have to say it before I believe me, just because I wasn't born by you."

"No wonder you don't love me all the time. I foolishly flatter you when I'm too biased. I listen obediently to everything you say. I just think that one day you will know that your youngest son is also your pride. It turns out that he Mom is something you forced to do, right? He was in the third year of high school, and the whole family surrounded him. I was in the third year of high school, and the whole family surrounded me and scolded me. Why bother, wouldn’t it be better to let me live in school? I said, grandma passed away , I am the only one who is sad, and you all act like nothing happened. The truth is out, don’t pretend to be fucking..." Gong Chen stood up and violently kicked the small stool he had just sat on.

Gongdeshan stood up, slapped Gongchen angrily, and said angrily: "Bastard, do you talk to your mother like that?"

Gongchen's face was burning with pain, tears fell down, he laughed a few times, applauded and said: "Gongxun, as you wish, I was kicked out of the house, no one will fight with you for parents in the future, are you happy? Anyway This family doesn't welcome me, so let me go."

Gongdeshan grabbed his hand and shouted: "Are you going to run away from home again? When will you be sensible? Your mother takes care of you, takes care of a family..."

"If you were considerate of your wife, you didn't care about yourself back then?" Gong Chen stared at Chen Jiao and said, "Thank you so much, throw away the picture book I gave you, it's an eyesore for you to put it on the pile of debris in the room of."

"Gongchen..." Gongdeshan was furious, and when he raised his hand and slapped it down, Gongchen grabbed his hand and slammed it away, "Did I hit me right? They are all your children, just me If I can get punched, I can be treated coldly by you."

Gongde was so angry that his heart ached: "What's wrong with me beating you? You are ignorant and disobedient, contradicting adults, why did I give birth to a bastard?"

"Then break my legs, kill me, and stuff me back into my mother's womb." Gong Chen dragged Gong Deshan to the balcony of the living room with all his strength, and roared, "I'll give you a chance to push me down from the 16th floor. Get up, die together, I'm not afraid..." Gongchen dragged Gongdeshan to the balcony with all his might.

Gong Xun rushed over and pulled Gong Chen's hand away, shouting: "Are you crazy? Gong Chen, you are going to die, you jump off yourself. Jump, aren't you afraid?"

"Okay, old people can't do it, come here...don't even think about consummating this family today..." Gong Chen grabbed Gong Xun's hand and walked directly towards the balcony.

Chen Jiao stood up and slapped Gong Chen's face fiercely, and said solemnly, "Calm down?"

Gong Xun sneered and said, "Crazy!"

The crimson five-finger imprint was on Gong Chen's thin face, his heart was so broken that he couldn't breathe, the numb and hot imprint was like a knife, sharply killing his heart, just like the examination admission ticket fell from his clothes two years ago that day.

Gong Chen turned and walked into the room, stuffed his test papers and exercise books into a handbag, stuffed a school uniform indiscriminately, rushed out of the room, and put on his shoes.

Grandpa stood at the door of the room, watching indifferently, with a look of hatred on his face.

Chen Jiao blocked the door and shouted: "Stop, are you going to run away from home again?"

Gongdeshan shouted: "Let him go! If you have the ability, don't come back for the rest of your life. If you don't have money, I'll see what you can do to live!"

With a "bang", Chen slammed the door and went out, and the people from the next house sneaked around the door to peek.

Zhong Yu watched Gong Chen run out to take the elevator, ran behind quickly, stuffed the money into Gong Chen's hand, and said eagerly: "Brother Chen, I have 500 yuan here, if you have no place to live, come to my house to sleep sofa."

Gong Chen turned his back to her and wiped away his tears: "What I owe you, I will pay you back later."

Zhong Yu looked at the elevator that was about to close, and said, "If you need anything, you can call me."

Gong Chen watched the faint sound of cooking coming from the community, the lights being turned on one after another, some mothers calling their children to eat, and some children followed their families out of the vegetable market to pick up vegetables. He knew that none of them belonged to him.
