014 shoe shine boy
The old man was right when he said that foxes love to eat chicken. Xiaobai’s little head was buried in the pile of chicken wings and chicken legs, and he had no time to care about Qin Mu. Qin Mu felt a little disgusted by the pile of chicken and simply turned away his head.
, looking out the window at the hustle and bustle in front of the vendors.
There was a person outside the window that caught Qin Mu's attention. To say that the attention was mostly due to curiosity, it was a shoeshine boy who obviously looked a little strange. Because it was through the glass, Qin Mu could only see his mouth.
The way he opened and closed, the shaking of his head, and the expressions of the people on the side showed that the child seemed to be singing.
When he sang, his upper body shook greatly, as if every word he said had to be shaken like this before he could say it. After welcoming a customer, the man quickly started polishing shoes, and his movements looked quite standard and serious.
, when the customer left, the shoeshine boy stood up, and Qin Mu realized what was abnormal.
His legs were curled up, one to the left and the other to the right, and the two legs were not of the same length. They were tangled together when he walked, and his whole body swayed greatly from side to side. When someone else took one step, he had to take two steps, and his whole body was swaying.
His upper body matched his lower body as much as possible, which made him stagger around and look like he might fall to the ground at any time.
Qin Mu had seen some polio patients, most of whom were in this situation. The shoeshine boy walked to a stall far away from him. There was a girl in that stall. From Qin Mu's distance, it was...
Innocent, romantic, and extremely beautiful, the girl is sitting with some trinkets placed in front of her.
Qin Mu watched this scene with great interest in this room. He looked at the leather shoes on his feet that had no visible color. Qin Mu raised his eyebrows and said to Xiaobai who was immersed in sweeping the food: "
I'm going out for a walk, be careful."
Xiaobai expressed his understanding and hummed for a long time with a mouthful of food in his mouth without looking at Qin Mu.
Qin Mu walked towards the shoeshine boy in a daze. He couldn't explain why he wanted to go there. He just looked at the two people cuddling together outside the window. Their happy smiles seemed to have infected him, but he didn't notice it when he went out.
Hit a woman.
"Ah -" the woman screamed, making the entire McKenzie's store quiet. Qin Mu's scalp tightened and he almost slapped her with a slap. The sound was too similar to the sound made by that broken mobile phone when it was poisoned.
.
When Qin Mu took the broken mobile phone to the mobile phone store, the startup screen shocked the old man who repaired the mobile phone. After Qin Mu repeatedly emphasized that it was just a mobile phone virus, the old man calmed down and was embarrassed.
Looking at Qin Mu: "Young man, with all due respect, you'd better buy a new mobile phone."
So after spending thousands of dollars to buy a fruit machine, all Qin Mu's grievances were transferred to the mobile phone virus. Now when he heard someone next to him making a similar scream, Qin Mu's first reaction was to slap him
Fan it over.
But when he raised his hand halfway, Qin Mu was stunned. To be precise, he was stunned. The face of the woman in front of him was swollen, and the swelling was quite distinctive. It was basically like a lot of polygons, and the face shape was roughly Chinese characters.
The face of a woman with a Chinese character face was full of pits and bumps, rising and falling as she pleased. Qin Mu, who had seen many faces, was stunned, wondering if this was a face that humans could have?
Seeing the surprise in Qin Mu's eyes, the woman exclaimed and put on the hat on her sweater, quickly put on her mask and sunglasses, and walked away without asking Qin Mu any more questions.
Qin Mu turned his head in a daze, and was frightened by the girl's face. On the face that was rising and falling, the eyes, nose, and mouth were all randomly formed, and it seemed that the two eyes could still see the same thing.
When they were in line, their noses were tilted to one side. They didn't care about the formation, and their lips, one thick and one thin, stuck to them crookedly...
Qin Mu patted his chest. This was much scarier than the female ghost on the phone just now.
I went out and walked to the booth of the shoeshine boy. After a while, a middle-aged man with a big belly was sitting on the chair. Seeing Qin Mu approaching, the shoeshine boy asked in a somewhat fluent Mandarin: "Mr.
Do you want your shoes shined?"
Qin Mu nodded and watched as the shoe shine boy quickly wiped the middle-aged man, and then Qin Mu calmly sat down on the chair.
Qin Mu was usually too lazy to pay attention to these things, so a pair of black leather shoes were so dirty that the color could not be seen clearly. There was still some yellow mud on the seams between the soles and the shoes. The shoe shine boy looked at it and grinned: "Mr.
, you need to maintain the leather in normal times.”
Qin Mu nodded and watched the shoeshine boy busy. He knew why this person's business was better than others. It was because he was cheaper than others. The mark under his seat was two yuan a time, which was one yuan cheaper than others.
While the shoes were being shined, Xiao Bai came out of McKenzie with satisfaction. He took the remaining change and found Qin Mu at the door. He looked at the polished leather shoes that he couldn't even tell the color of.
His white eyes turned into an "O" shape, and he said in surprise: "Mumu, have you changed your gender? I've never seen you so..."
Before he finished speaking, Qin Mu stopped him with a glare. Xiaobai's face immediately put on a flattering smile. If he wasn't in the busy city now, I'm afraid this guy would still show his little tail.
Shake twice behind you.
After paying the money, the shoeshine boy pointed to the place where the previous girl had set up a stall and said: "Sir, go and look at the jewelry there. They are all handmade and very beautiful. Buy some for your girlfriend too."
Qin Mu automatically ignored the shoe shine boy's last words and walked to the girl's stall. The shoe shine boy also limped over. Xiao Bai looked at the accessories on the stall with interest. The girl just sat there.
Smiling, when Qin Mu got closer, she discovered that there was a pair of walking sticks at her feet.
The shoeshine boy noticed Qin Mu's gaze and said with a smile: "This is my sister. You can choose more. I make the decision and I can give you a discount."
While the shoeshine boy was talking, the girl kept staring at him. After he finished speaking, she smiled slightly and gave him a thumbs up.
The shoeshine boy grinned. To be honest, the shoeshine boy didn't look good when he smiled. His facial muscles couldn't coordinate this movement, so his smile turned out to be even more ferocious, uglier than crying.
Xiaobai quickly picked out something, a string of black beaded bracelets of unknown material. The girl was slightly surprised and gestured to the shoeshine boy for a long time. The shoeshine boy quickly said: "My sister said, this beaded chain is very
Suitable for this woman, it is a pearl of happy love."
Xiaobai said "Oh" and put the beaded chain on his hand: "How about it? Does it look good?"
"Pay the bill." Qin Mu looked at it for a while, said nothing, threw an old man's head and turned around to leave.
Xiaobai hurriedly chased Qin Mu, but the shoeshine boy hurriedly caught up from behind: "Sir, you don't need so much, this is change."
Qin Mu paused and said, "No need. If anything happens in the future, you can come to me at the address on the money."
Qin Mu walked in a hurry, and Xiaobai couldn't keep up for a while. Qin Mu was moving as fast as if something was chasing him from behind. He was probably going further and further away. Xiaobai stamped his feet from a distance: "Qin Mu! Wait a minute.
wait for me!"
Qin Mu then stopped and waited for Xiaobai to rush over out of breath. Qin Daguan said in a neither happy nor sad tone: "Are you tired after just these few steps? It's time for you to lose weight, Xiaobai."
noob:"……"
The shoeshine boy looked steadily at the direction Qin Mu left. He was such a good man. He carefully put away the old man's head, but he was thinking about when to return the money to him, because he felt that it was him who deserved it.
He will ask for it. It's not his, and he won't ask for more. It's only two yuan for shoe shine, but it costs 100 yuan?
He was an orphan. The shoeshine boy's thoughts returned to the past.
He was born with polio, and his legs were unable to stand normally. They were always twisted in strange ways, which made him walk with a limp. His parents were disgusted and abandoned him.
A group of scheming people raised him, and they, the group of children with disabilities like him. Some children were not disabled at first, but such disabilities seemed to be contagious. Generally, healthy children were brought in,
In less than a day or two, various disabilities are contracted. This state is called contagion. I once overheard a group of adults saying that contagion is when one person's disease is transmitted to another person.
..
That's how disabled she is.
At that time, she was small, thin, with bright eyes, her voice was soft, and she wanted to be protected. When she saw him on the first day she came, she timidly asked him for water.
When he drank it, he knew that he wanted such bright and soft eyes in his life.
However, the next day, she was still infected.
Her heart-wrenching and shrill scream came from the small room, as if something had been broken. After the adults walked away, he moved his twisted legs and limped towards the room.
During this time, his legs were trembling.
Her face was full of tears, her legs were covered with shocking bloodstains and bruises, her knees were swollen high, and her legs were placed in a strange posture. He tried later and couldn't put them in this way. She saw him
, extremely resistant: "Go, go! I don't want to be like you! I don't want to be like you! I want to find my mother! I want to go home! I want to go home!!"
She was crying like this, and her hands were flying in front of her in a very resistive way. He wanted to go over and hug her and comfort her, but seeing her resistance, he hesitated for a long time and still didn't go.
He always thought that his illness was transferred to her.
She cried for three days and three nights, fainted several times, and when she woke up for the last time, she could only make the single sound "Ahhhhh" from her mouth, and her voice was also lost.
She cried for three days and three nights, and he stayed with her for three days and three nights. He always thought that after this, her legs would get better, but it never did.
