[012] Reform through labor prisoners
In the grandfather's house, Li Zetao and Fatty Liu are both famous people.
Fatty Liu is in his 60s this year. He opened a barber shop at the age of 20. His skills are pure and pure. He is famous among the older generation. Li Zetao is 25 years old and has been in and out of labor camps for three years.
Before the 1990s, the release of labor reform personnel was discriminated against and excluded by society. Li Zetao was arrested by mistake when he went in for the first time. The production team near the Li family lost a cow and searched for two days but failed to find it. The police station found Li Zetao's key on the hillside where the cattle was herded. Someone happened to report that the beef sold by a butcher in Jiangbei was unknown. The police called Li Zetao and the butcher to question him and pointed out that the cow was sold to him by Li Zetao. So Li was sentenced to one year and was detained for 11 months. When he was released, the butcher was arrested for stealing the cow. The police station investigated that the butcher was a habitual criminal and Li was wronged. The day when Li was released was released, there was still one week before the year's sentence was over.
Li Zetao, who had just started working, lost his job. After he came out, the neighborhood committee arranged for him to sweep the road. Li worked without being picky. He was 20 years old this year.
After working on the sweeping work for several months, two prisoners ran out of the labor camp. At 4 a.m. on the road, they happened to meet Li Zetao and Li had a lifelong friendship with Li in prison. Li took them to find a place to hide for two days and gave them more than 100 yuan. They didn't want to implicate their friends. They went to the train station to escape by car without telling Li. The two people did not confess that Li Zetao came. However, Li was reported by a neighbor of a man. Because Li went to the family to report to his relatives, he was seen this time. He was harboring and sheltering for three years.
After three years of prison, Li was released from prison, but he had no job this time. Someone found him a labor worker to carry luggage at the train station for two months. One day, the policeman in front of the station found a fugitive murderer when he checked his ID card. The little policeman was not experienced enough, so he called out the murderer and fought with two policemen on the spot. He pulled out a knife and stabbed one to death, and was seriously injured. He was kicked down by Li Zetao who was passing by. The two fought a few times. Li snatched the knife and stabbed the murderer to death. But he thought that the murderer had a late accomplice. This accomplice had a developed limbs and a poor brain. Seeing that his brother was stabbed, he did not run away but came up to grab the knife. The two went around. The accomplice was also stabbed to death by Li Zetao. The policeman was chased to death. He was seriously injured and not dead. The official was promoted to two levels. Li Zetao was brave and rewarded, had excessive defense, sentenced to half a year and probation for half a year.
Lin Ziwen didn't understand how this excessive defense was sentenced. There are too many incredible things these days. Heroes who are brave enough will be sentenced. If they are in the 21st century, the media can make this matter go to prison three times because Li Zetao's bad luck. However, in recent years, he has been tempered into a person who has been released in advance this time. There is no job yet.
Li Zetao's family is very close to Lin Ziwen's grandfather's house, and they are both in the same production team. When Lin Ziwen went to his grandfather's house to play when he was a child, he often visited Li's house with his father. Li Zetao often went up the mountain to set up nets to catch birds, and used a hand-crank motor to catch fish. Then he returned home and generously invited the children living nearby to play at his house when he was a child. Lin Ziwen raised two yellow birds given by Li Zetao when he was a child. He remembered that this bird was on the verge of extinction. During the Millennium, he saw someone selling 5,000 yuan for a pair in the bird market in Beijing.
When he arrived outside Li Zetao's yard, Lin Ziwen found a place that could not be seen in the yard and shouted at the top of his voice: "Brother Tao, is Brother Tao at home?"
"Xiao Tao went to Lao Liu's head to shave his head, who are you?" It sounded like Li Zetao's grandfather
"It's okay, I'll leave, Grandpa Li, who is playing." Lin Ziwen came out of class and it's best if no one saw him
When he arrived at the fat barber Liu's shop, a half-baby who was shaving his head said that Brother Tao played billiards and went to Lin Ziwen to walk around for a long time before he found the billiards hall in an alley and met Li Zetao.
After working in labor reform in labor camps over the past few years, Li Zetao, who was a child, has become a black man. Old Liu has just cut a small flat head for him, a snow-white vest, black trousers, wide cowhide belt, and shiny black leather shoes. Li Zetao's dress is full of energy, and he was not as depressed as he was when he was released a few days ago, which made Lin Ziwen stunned.
Li Zetao was standing by the ball table with a cigarette in his arms and watching others play ball. When he saw Lin Ziwen, he was stunned: "Ziwen, why didn't he go to school to run here?"
"Brother Tao, I'll come to find you and come out and say?"
A few people who played billiards saw Lin Ziwen and everyone greeted each other. Lin Ziwen often came to play this area when she was a child, and she and Lin Zichuan jumped up and down with a group of children. They all knew him, and some of them thought he was bullied at school and came to find someone. They also asked him if he wanted to help.
After leaving the billiard hall, the two of them squatted on the edge of the road at the door. Li Zetao flicked the cigarette butt in his hand into the ditch opposite, took out the bag Yingchun from his pocket, pulled out a match and pointed it.
Lin Ziwen was amused when she saw it: "Brother Tao, seeing the person you are wearing, you just suck this outfit, where did you make this outfit?"
"Go, damn boy, I'm in charge of other people's business. Tell me if you want me to do anything." Li Zetao was a little embarrassed. In less than half an hour of wearing this outfit today, five or a half old boys joked with him. Lin Ziwen had just been in junior high school and had not grown hair yet, and he dared to laugh at him. There were not many people in the labor camp who dared to talk to him like this.
Lin Ziwen's eyes rolled and she understood: "Sister Hongxia bought it for you? When will you two do weddings?"
Li Zetao raised his legs and tried to kick him. Lin Ziwen quickly jumped to the side like a toad, and said with a smile: "I won't tell you anymore. It's really a problem to come to you today."
"What's the matter?" Li Zetao took a sip of Yingchun cigarette and spitted on the ground. The cheap cigarette costs 20 cents a box. Without a filter, you can always smoke the cigarette in the first few puffs.
Lin Ziwen snatched the Yingchun from Li Zetao's mouth and threw it aside: "Don't suck this, come on, I'll give you some good things." After that, he opened his schoolbag, took out a box of Liangyou, tore open the packaging line and handed it to Li Zetao Liangyou for 7 yuan a box, one of which was 35 cents, enough to buy 35 Yingchun's.
"Wow, where did you get the money to buy this cigarette?" Li Zetao quickly took out a point and took a sip in his mouth.
"Brother, I've just made some money. Let's find a place to eat first. I'm not full in the morning." Lin Ziwen pulled Li Zetao out of the alley. There were only some small restaurants nearby, and he didn't like it. A taxi happened to pass by. Lin Ziwen stopped the car and took the two of them.
"What are you doing? You need to take a taxi for breakfast? How much money did you earn? Have you won the lottery?" Li Zetao knew that Lin Ziwen was different from other children. She was smart and precocious but took a taxi to eat. He was a little confused and couldn't make a turn.
"Master, Yuebin Hotel" Lin Ziwen kept doing it all the time, so she simply chose a high-end place: "Brother Tao, Yuebin has never been there, I'm asking you to have breakfast porridge."
Li Zetao looked up and down at Lin Ziwen, looking surprised: "Boy, you guys, I've been with you today, see what tricks you have in a while."
The taxi arrived at Yuebin soon. Lin Ziwen paid the car money to lead the way. When he entered the lobby with Li Zetao, the manager recognized Lin Ziwen who had eaten last time. He came forward to say hello and asked Lin Ziwen. He found out that there is no breakfast in high-end hotels without accommodation services. He asked the manager for a private room on the second floor. Before going upstairs, he also made a suggestion: "Although it is not much money to supply some special breakfasts, it is a symbol of grades. Star hotels have breakfast. You can talk to the leader and consider it."
Because Yuebin Hotel has no accommodation projects, it is only open during lunch and dinner. In this era, no one has noticed how much breakfast service has impacted the hotel. The lobby manager nodded and agreed. Lin Ziwen saw that his attitude was a polite response, so he didn't say anything more.
After entering the private room, Lin Ziwen took the menu from the waiter and asked Li Zetao to order the dishes. Li Zetao briefly flipped through the menu. He was amazed at the price of the dishes above. He refused to order the dishes and had to take them over. The combination of meat and vegetables was similar to last time. He also ordered four dishes and one soup.
Li Zetao only smokes and never drinks. Lin Ziwen is just the opposite. He never smokes, so he doesn't order wine. The four-seater private room is not big. He sits opposite him, drinking tea and chatting while waiting for dishes.
Lin Ziwen didn't mention the reason for looking for Li Zetao today, and Li Zetao was not in a hurry to ask the two of them talked about their childhood first time, and talked about the life they had come to labor camps in recent years. They all lamented that his luck was not good, and the dishes were served soon. Li Zetao had never eaten such a level of dish. Lin Ziwen was also hungry. The two of them ventilated and swept the clouds and quickly cleaned the bowls and dishes on the table. Li Zetao patted the ditch and flat belly, and exclaimed that they were satisfied.
After finishing the food, Lin Ziwen took the initiative to open the topic: "Brother Tao, I've been out for two months this time and I haven't worked yet?"
Li Zetao lit a match and lit a good friend. He vomited a cigarette ring with some depression and said, "Who wants me like me? I'm only 25 years old and I've been in and out of three. I've been entrusted with all the relationships I can. You know that no unit will accept it. When I graduated from high school, my father spent more than 3,000 yuan to transfer the household registration for me. Now I want to go up the mountain to grow vegetables but have nowhere to go."
"Then her father can't agree to your relationship with Sister Hongxia?" Hongxia's family and Li Zetao's family, Lin Ziwen's grandfather's family is an old neighbor. In recent years, Hongxia's father has set up a stall in the vegetable market and made some money. The family has also moved to the city. Hongxia is 2 years younger than Li Zetao. The two have been childhood sweethearts since childhood. The outfit on Li Zetao was bought by Hongxia when she first came out.
"I definitely can't agree. My dad wants to ask Aunt Li to match the match. Aunt Li said that Hongxia is filial and beautiful, and her family is in good condition in recent years. The matchmaker is about to break the threshold. I'm sorry to tell me that there is no chance. I'm cowardly." Li Zetao sucked the remaining piece of cigarettes in a few sips, twisted it into the ashtray, and lit another match.
"Then do you have any plans now? Tell me about it."
Li Zetao thought for a while and said, "I have no skills and no money now, I can't find a job or do small business. A friend asked me if I would go to the city to work as a security guard for his store. I think if I really can't do it, I'll try it."
