It is still raining. When I got off the bus, I trotted to the shed not far away. On the construction site in the distance, a group of people wore raincoats and were busy nervously. From a distance, everyone's skin is as black as charcoal. I remember my high school classmate named Da Ruan. Even compared with black people, his skin is not too dark. Nowadays, none of these people are black, better than black, which is amazing.
Speaking of black people, it reminds me of the purpose of this trip. I came from thousands of miles away to see my classmate Ding Dong. I haven't seen him for more than twenty years after graduation. Some time ago, there were rumors that Ding Dong was infected with Ebola virus while working in Africa. Now, at his invitation, I have to meet him, because I am too emotional, and I have to summon up courage.
It is said that when Ebola virus broke out, he was bleeding like a zombie, biting everyone. Besides, Ding Dong went to the Central African Republic this time, which was notorious for having a man-eating emperor. At the thought of this, my palms can't help sweating and I am very uneasy about this meeting.
Pushing open the door of the project manager's office, there was a musty smell, which was very pungent. This smell is so unique that it reminds me of a long time ago. Yes, this smell is the smell of smelly socks. I remember that Ding Dong didn't wash socks for several months, which made everyone dizzy. It took a long time to get used to it Now, more than 20 years later, I can smell this unique smell of Ding Dong, which reminds me of many past events and switches back and forth in my mind like a slide show.
/kloc-the office of more than 0/0 square meters is messy, and things are piled up at will, making it difficult to see clearly. An old man wears reading glasses, lowers his head, buries his head in the painting, and his half-white sparse hair is swaying gently in the indoor breeze.
As I approached, the old man heard the sound. He looked up and asked who I was looking for. I said I'm looking for Manager Ding. The old man looked me up and down with muddy little eyes, and then said gruffly, Manager Ding is not here, and he has gone to Lu 'an to collect money. Come again next time.
I'm a little angry. What is this? I came all the way to visit others, but I didn't expect my hot face to stick to my cold ass and I was turned away.
Out of the door of the project intends to, some at a loss, after all, it's too far from downtown, so we have to contact Ding Dong and ask him when he will come back. Unexpectedly, when I went out on my front foot, the old man on my back foot sneaked out and saw that I had not left yet. He seemed scared and ran away.
I became suspicious, thinking that this old man is too strange, how can he be so evil? A worker happened to pass by, and I said I'd like to speak to your manager Ding. The old man who ran away from the workers made signal with the lips and said yes!
I started chasing.
I shouted Ding Dong's name as I ran. Unexpectedly, the old man ran faster. This excites me. I think I'm a marathon runner now, anyway. Can you run past me, the old man? !
So, I chased him desperately. As the distance between them got closer and closer, the old man was in a hurry and tripped over the mud under his feet. Without considering the blood on his face, he got up and ran. Leaving a bloody yellow tooth, lying quietly on the ground.
Seeing that I couldn't get rid of me, the old man used his quick wits and ran to the dry toilet on the construction site. He slipped into the ladies' room and refused to come out, no matter what I called him.
Later, I patted my forehead and blamed myself for losing my head today and forgetting to report for duty. Then I said, Ding Dong, I'm Lao Li, and I came to see you at your invitation. The pole worked, and the old man came out of the ladies' room.
Old man, no, it should be Ding Dong who came up to me and rubbed his hands embarrassedly and said, Brother, you should sign up early when you come. I thought you were here to collect debts, but you scared me to death, hehehe! Then he looked me up and down and said, brother, you are tall, fat and heroic. No wonder I didn't recognize you!
I have also studied Ding Dong carefully, and I feel that he is aging too fast. Compared with the person I remember, he is completely unrecognizable. I remember when I was a student, Ding Dong loved beauty very much. He changed his blue suit, gray suit, white suit and fancy suit, and so on. He turned it into a lantern. With wasp-like hair, crawling in the wind. In a word, he left a deep impression on his classmates, especially the girls. Every time he wriggles his waist and hips on campus and walks on the steps of the model, many girls are attracted to watch and scream from time to time.
Time and tide wait for no man now. Things have changed. In front of Ding Dong, her hair is not only half gray, but also almost bald. The wrinkled, dark face is covered with age spots. Also, his figure is like a bamboo pole, with a slight hunchback. What's more frightening is that several teeth fell out of his mouth, and when he opened his mouth, it turned into a black hole, which made me gasp.
At noon that day, Ding Dong ordered the canteen to add a few more dishes and cooked me a dinner. To tell the truth, I have no other specialties, but my taste buds are developed and I am very particular about eating. I once dreamed of becoming a gourmet! I came to Anhui all the way this time and wanted to eat authentic Anhui cuisine, but I was a little disappointed at the moment-except for the honeycomb tofu, which is barely considered as Anhui cuisine, the rest are basically made from local materials, simple and simple, such as dried pepper tofu, fried peanuts and canned fish. By the way, there is also a big plate of pork stewed vermicelli, which is an authentic northeast dish style. Unfortunately, there is no trace of lean meat in it, and it is basically skin, and the hair is not shaved. It looks a bit transparent. But regardless of these, Ding Dong picked up a furry skin with chopsticks and chewed it with relish in his toothless mouth.
Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory divides people's needs, that is, happiness satisfaction, into five levels. The first level, that is, the lowest level, is the satisfaction of physiological needs. One of my classmates hates knowledge, and there is also a famous saying: Fuck you, literati are melodramatic, just eat and drink! Comparing me with Ding Dong, it seems that the environment really makes people, and it is sincere!
Ding Dong seems to see the danger on my face. Explain quickly, he said, brother, this place is in a ravine, and the traffic is inconvenient. It's troublesome to go far away to buy food! If the hospitality is not good, you can make do with it. Finally, he scolded angrily, this place belongs to Lao Tzu!
The place to eat is the project manager's office in Ding Dong. Bricks are piled on the four sides of the open space, and boards are placed on them to form a dining table. Although simple, it is better than workers squatting or standing outside to eat. Besides Ding Dong and I, we were accompanied by two people: an on-site security officer, Lao An, who was about our age and had a square face, but his hair was completely bald and he was very old. In addition, he always feels that he is feminine and his speech is squeaky; The other is the only woman on the construction site, Sister Zhen, a canteen cook. The food in front of her is her handwriting. Sister Zhen is in her early fifties and is well maintained. With her plump breasts and hips, Xu Niang is a little old, and her charm still exists. But she is coarse in speech and coarse in person, and you can see at a glance that there is not much connotation.
Ding Dong is explaining, old Ann suddenly bowed his head and covered his mouth and smiled. Ding Dong one leng, turned to face a red, began to pour me a bitter taste. He said, brother, you don't know how hard I have been. I live by borrowing money and live in fear every day, robbing Peter to pay Paul. His series of complaints are nothing more than Party A's delay in allocating funds, material suppliers and subcontractors chasing for money and so on. And there are many dialects that Ding Dong doesn't understand, such as rough Niang, Niang Xipi, grandma's legs, little beggars and so on. I think this is also one of the gains made by traveling north and south with the project department for many years.
Here comes the wine. Ding Dong and I drank to meet. As soon as the wine entered, the topic gradually increased, and I talked about the past of high school, especially white gloves, which was endless regret. Ding Dong sighed, eyes moist.
Ding Dong took out a pack of cigarettes from his desk, handed me one and asked him if he wanted to smoke. ! I waved my hand and refused, saying I didn't smoke. Ding Dong smiled strangely and said that this is not an ordinary cigarette. Smoking it will make you feel very happy and want to die. As soon as I heard it, I thought it was obviously drug abuse, and I refused it even more. Ding Dong lit a cigarette, smoking while self-deprecating smile, said, dry engineering, crisscrossed, which is not poison? !
Ding Dong doesn't seem to have a good capacity for alcohol. After three rounds of drinking, he began to tell dirty jokes without scruple. Not only that, he also touched Sister Zhen sitting next to him, groped others and forced them to propose a toast. Sister Zhen was not angry, but responded to him with anger and laughter. Two people cuddle, obscene words and waves.
Seeing my jaw-dropping, Lao An explained in a considerate voice that there is no shortage of men on the construction site and women are rare animals on the construction site. Single dog's days at the construction site are too long. Even if Pan An comes, he will definitely become a flower picker! Therefore, it's not easy for manager Ding to understand!
I was silent for a while, and then I chatted with Lao An about the construction site.
Suddenly, there was a noise outside, mixed with a curse. The office door was suddenly opened, and a teenager wearing a helmet came in like a whirlwind and whispered a few words in Ding Dong's ear. Ding Dong frightened to disgrace, and suddenly woke up. He stood up in a panic and repeatedly said, quick, quick, hide me. ...
Old Ann pushed Ding Dong's desk, moved on a floor tile under the desk, and the floor tile was pried up. It turns out that the floor tile is hollow and there is a hole in the ground below. I thought of tunnel warfare for no reason, thinking, what a sly rabbit hole! People who avoid debts are full of wisdom! But this hole is very shallow and the entrance is very narrow. I think only a thin person like Ding Dong can go in, and he has to squat down like a toilet. After a long time, he is also suffering.
No sooner had Ding Dong gone into hiding than a group of people broke in. Headed by a short fat man, a face of lost expression. Although he is stout, he is full of anger, and his roar resounds through the room. Humpty Dumpty dragged a coquettish woman to cry, overturned the wine table and shouted angrily: Ding Dong, a son of a bitch, dares to pick up my girl if he doesn't pay me back the money he owes me! Come out and watch me skin you!
Egghead can't find Ding Dong. He's in a panic. The roar is getting louder and louder, and many people on the construction site come to watch. Later, Stout ordered his men to smash Ding Dong's office, especially Ding Dong's orchids, and they trampled on them after smashing them, which made me feel distressed. After venting their anger, the gang left.
When Ding Dong came out of the hole, he felt very embarrassed. He looked a little shy when he saw me. He asked Lao An to clean his office, and then he had a casual chat with me. He is a little depressed, and I am a little angry with him. I think, Ding Dong and Ding Dong, you have been molesting female classmates since junior high school, and your teacher made it public. Now that decades have passed, why can't you change this lewd stink!
Suddenly, the door was pushed open again, and the boy rushed in and whispered a few words to Ding Dong. Ding Dong was angry, said loudly, and opposed them! Let's go and give them some color to see see!
It turned out that a group of expropriated villagers made trouble. This is a common occurrence in contemporary China. In fact, it is generally the responsibility of the construction unit to deal with the villagers whose land has been expropriated, but the construction unit often pushes it to the construction unit that laughs at them. A construction project department like Ding Dong can only bite the bullet.
Dozens of villagers came to make trouble, and there were only a lot more construction workers in Ding Dong. The quarrel between the two groups became more and more fierce, and they did not give in to each other. The leader of the rioting villagers is a woman with five big and three thick. Her voice is very loud and noisy, much like grandma fire in do sesame official. Ding Dong showed no weakness, quarreled with her like a rooster, and his Adam's apple slid up and down. Two people is diamond cut diamond, noisy, evolved into a physical conflict.
As a result, there is no doubt that Grandma Fire's huge body pressed the emaciated Ding Dong to the ground. Ding Dong scratched and bit, struggling desperately, and his eyes turned into glass eyes. But "grandma fire" adamant4, two huge breasts full of H cups, Ding Dong little face out of breath.
Suddenly, Ding Dong's eyes turned red and his mouth sizzled. I don't know who shouted. Oh, no! Chief Ding's Ebola is having another attack!
Villagers and workers dispersed in a hubbub. Grandma Fire also tried to escape, but she was caught by Ding Dong. In desperation, she slapped Ding Dong and knocked out several teeth. Ding Dong was in pain before letting go.
Ding Dong stood up. At this time, he has become like a wild animal, biting everyone. Fortunately, I ran fast and didn't catch up with him.
Later, Lao An had an idea. He ordered several workers to hold sticks and cornered Ding Dong. Then everyone rushed in and tied him up. Lao An also put a donkey chew on Ding Dong to prevent him from biting. Sister Zhen gave him morphine to calm him down.
During my observation, I think they seem to be very experienced in dealing with Ebola virus in Ding Dong, and they are very familiar with it. I thought this was not the first time that Ebola broke out in Ding Dong.
Old Ann told me that fortunately I ran fast and was bitten by Ding Dong, which is contagious. Lao An also said that some time ago, two students asked Ding Dong to catch up. It is said that one is from Qinhuangdao and the other is from Aksu, so I am not so lucky. They were both bitten by sick Ding Dong.
After morphine, Ding Dong became quiet, and everyone sent him to the dormitory to sleep. At this time, it is near dusk, and the sky after the rain, colorful clouds chasing the moon, is particularly brilliant.
I wandered outside my dormitory in Ding Dong, recalling what happened that day, just like dreaming. In the silent night, I heard Ding Dong grinding his teeth like a wild animal while sleeping, and my heart suddenly sank when I thought of two classmates who were bitten by sick Ding Dong for no reason.
