Chapter 3 Scavenging
Yi Tianxing pushed the 28-year-old bicycle out of the carport, looking at the dark night sky above the campus, his brows trembled slightly without anyone noticing. He looked at the classmates who were walking by and greeted them friendly. Now he was not a child, and he knew how to make his whole body refreshed, and no classmates would alienate him because they could not stand the smell on his body. No high school students would discriminate against him because of their family background. Even if there was, on the campus full of books, no one dared to show such a tasteless disgust on his face.
He pushed the bicycle that seemed too tall and walked outside the school. The road leading to the gate was dimly lit and was slowly thinking about what books to borrow from the county library on Saturday, but unexpectedly, someone passed by his side like the wind, accompanied by the sound of the wind, and the hand that reached his hair and grabbed it.
"Boy, it's time for you to wash your hair. Come to your house for dinner tomorrow night." Several bicycles whizzed past him, and one of the short-haired girls turned around and grimaced at him.
He smiled. The girl with short hair was named Zou Leilei, who was at the same table. Unfortunately, the road was different, at least the way home was different.
Lei Lei is also the most familiar classmate Yi Tianxing on campus. The reason is actually very simple. Last time the whole class went to Lei Lei’s house to have a party, Lei Lei’s mother was stunned when she looked at Yi Tianxing, and then her hands covered with smoke directly patted his face and shouted: “Dad, come and see, is this the kid?”
Teacher Zou, wearing glasses, walked in slowly from the study, then took off his glasses and looked at them for a long time, before slowly saying: "The eyebrows and eyes are vaguely as if they are old, but they have been around..."
Lei Lei's mother waved her hand and interrupted, shouting, "Why are you so stupid? Just ask the kid's name on the household registration?"
The students were looking at Yi Tianxing and Leilei's parents strangely. Leilei angrily said, "My parents, what are you doing? This is our classmates. They are the most shy. Today I finally invited him to do it. Don't scare him."
Lei Lei's mother waved her hand and said, "Sir, don't interrupt, you kid." Then she asked with a gentle smile on her face, "Boy, what's your name? Remember, it's in the household registration book."
Yi Tianxing became a twelve-foot Vajra at this time, and said, "My name is Yi Tianxing."
As soon as Yi Tianxing said the three words, Lei Lei’s mother and Teacher Zou both laughed and said, “Do you remember who gave this name?”
Yi Tianxing suddenly realized and looked at the two parents for a long time before saying gratefully: "It turned out to be Fat Director and Teacher Zou."
"Fat Director?" Although Zou Leilei didn't know what happened, she couldn't help laughing when she saw the most taciturn student in her class calling her mother Fat Director.
After everyone was sitting at the dining table, Teacher Zou held a glass of wine to tell the students about the relationship with Yi Tianxing. When it came to the emotional part, he was even more sad. After a while, the fat director, Oh, Leilei's mother asked with concern: "We moved away when you were in elementary school. Are you doing well later?"
Yi Tianxing was dealing with a big chicken leg that Lei Lei's mother brought over and responded vaguely: "Everyone is pretty good, and the neighbors and neighbors are very helpful."
Lei Lei's mother sighed at his life, and then blew the genius passes of Yi Tianxing when he was in elementary school to the students on the table, and just blew the students in awe, not caring about Yi Tianxing's face was like a cooked prawn.
After dinner, everyone left. Lei Lei sent Yi Tianxing to the door, wearing a coat on her shoulder. Under the dim light, the girl looked at him with clear eyes: "I didn't expect that Yi Tianxing, you can really pretend. It turns out that you are the monster genius when you were in elementary school."
Yi Tianxing was amused and cried, and said, "You forgot my name yourself, how can you pretend? Besides..." Suddenly, he said, "Monster Genius? Is this my title when I was in elementary school?"
The two looked at each other and smiled.
From that day on, Yi Tianxing became familiar with Zou Leilei and often went to her house to have a meal and have a tooth-beating ceremony. After the meal, he took some delicious food back to his small dark room.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Fat Director and Teacher Zou are really great people.
Yi Tianxing looked at the bicycle that was leaving and stood at the school gate and thought blankly. He looked up and saw that the night sky in the sky was getting darker and darker. He knew that it might rain at night, so he quickly rode his bicycle and rushed to his home.
His small black room is still in the old place, in the most sloppy corner of the old city.
Yi Tianxing carefully took off his shirt and trousers that were not visible to be blue or white, folded it, put it on the bed, and placed a newspaper between the sheets and clothes. Then he took out his work clothes from under the bed, and without frowned, he put it on very skillfully.
The work clothes were black and inconspicuous jeans, with a blue work clothes from an unknown textile factory, a torn straw hat with thorns on the edges, and a handkerchief that could not be washed out of white.
Wearing our work clothes, carrying the basket behind us, putting on the rubber shoes that had been with him for more than ten years in his life to pick up scattered, and holding the bamboo sticks that were split into two pieces in front of us like a sword. Our scattered man sang softly: "I will go, but I will not see you..." Learning the fourteen chants in the TV series, he began to walk along the black street towards the large garbage dump in Chengguan.
The more he walked, the better he felt. You should know that the rubber shoes under his feet were always worn large before, and they had to tie them with a hemp rope to walk. Now they are getting more and more in line. When he is in a good mood, the more relaxed the scavenger walks in the alley made of stones, as if he is about to dance.
Qianshi is where he works night shifts, the Ganghe Village garbage station.
A hill-like garbage dump appeared in front of Yi Tianxing, and a foul stinking came to his face. He gently put down the gray hand towel tied to his nose, but there was no embarrassment on his face. Yes, he had been picking up the rags for more than ten years, would he still not be able to adapt?
He walked into the garbage dump and gently flipped it with his left hand wearing gloves, picking up the plastic bottles and glass bottles inside. Nowadays, there are not many cans in this year. I accidentally found one, which is more like picking a treasure. He quickly put his palms together and knocked it down, and then put it in the basket behind him. He flipped and picked it up skillfully with his left hand, but his right hand was not empty. He saw him gently pinched the paper scraps on the ground with bamboo sticks, then loosened it back, and the inflexible black and rotten paper balls were eaten by the basket behind him. His movements were extremely skillful. A long bamboo stick was used by him like chopsticks on the hands of the world.
People who pick up garbage can be considered as colleagues? People who dig up their lives in a garbage dump every day are also considered colleagues? Unfortunately, they only have cold eyes among colleagues, which is good, which saves the hypocritical smiles of people sitting in the office.
Yi Tianxing looked at the three or four colleagues walking on the garbage dump from a distance and smiled slightly. He was very satisfied with this life of not talking to others, because he often didn't know whether others could understand what he said to others.
The garbage dump under the night was smelling foul. The bright moon in the night sky seemed to be unable to withstand this stench. It quietly hid behind the clouds, making Yi Tianxing's surroundings even darker.
In the distance of the dark night, a few people came, wearing fashionable fat pants and T-shirts. Yi Tianxing looked good and naturally saw clearly. These people were carrying a few pieces of aluminum ingots and were walking towards an agricultural vehicle parked outside the garbage dump.
He frowned, knowing that this must be the hooligan in the county who was stealing the raw materials from the factory in the north. He quickly turned around and walked back a few steps. When he walked past the old scavengers, he quietly said hello. When he reminded the old scavengers, he found that there were a few hooligans behind him. He was so scared that he quickly ran towards the back of the garbage dump.
Yi Tianxing deliberately fell to the end, but he didn't want to leave too quickly, but instead attracted the attention of those little hooligans.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the dirty agricultural vehicle was on, the headlights lit up, he immediately shone his figure on the garbage dump.
