Chapter 11 Dependence

on each other

Zhang Buyi took a look, turned around and sat back at the table. Zhang Bucheng washed his hands carefully, took off his clothes in the yard, shook them, patted the ashes on his head, and then went into the house and sat down.

"Did you make it?" Zhang Bucheng asked, looking at the white rice in front of him and smelling the aroma of caramelized vegetables filling the room.

Zhang Buyi did not answer the other party's question, but said indifferently: "Eat!"

As he spoke, he stopped waiting, picked up the bowl, and started eating first.

Zhang Bucheng looked at Zhang Buyi again. He had already spoken to him five or six times in the past two days. Does he plan to stop talking to me next month?

"Don't pick up all the potatoes. There are two kilograms of meat, which is enough to eat." Zhang Bucheng, who was eating while thinking wildly, was interrupted by Zhang Buyi's cold words.

Zhang Bucheng's movements froze again, and he said with some choking: "Well..."

How many years has it been since you cared about him so much?

It’s been five years!

At the dinner table, silence fell once again. Zhang Bucheng peeked at Zhang Buyi from time to time, his eyes gradually revealed a happy light, a little silly, a little flattering, and looked so humble.

At the same time, he savored the food carefully, as if he were eating delicacies from the mountains and seas.

Although Zhang Buyi thinks his craftsmanship is pretty good, he is definitely not that exaggerated and is not even chef-level.

Obviously, this guy sensed the change in his attitude and felt that he was beginning to forgive the other person.

"By the way, this is today's wages. Today's work is good, a full eight cents!" Zhang Bucheng suddenly remembered something, quickly put down the bowl in his hand, and carefully took out a few copper coins from his pocket.

Put it in front of Zhang Buyi, a little proud, a little bit flattering, a little cautious.

Zhang Buyi raised his head again and glanced at the familiar yet unfamiliar young man in front of him. This was his brother. No matter what happened in the past, he should always be the same in the future!

Looking at Zhang Buyi, Zhang Bucheng showed a pure smile, his eyes were full of happiness, and he didn't know what he was happy about.

Zhang Buyi silently put away the money and immersed himself in eating.

"I heard that I will work extra hours these days, so I might be able to earn more. I'll work harder and try to get you to submit your studies on time next time, so you don't have to wait until the end of school to make you look good."

Probably because he felt the kindness exuded by Zhang Buyi, even though he still had a cold face, he still took the initiative to speak.

Zhang Buyi paused and said: "Don't go there to work tomorrow, go back to the dock!"

Zhang Bucheng was stunned, and then said: "I just work at the dock?"

"Then let's find another one." Zhang Buyi still said calmly, without arguing.

"But...but these days, there are only two big ships, and there is no cargo to unload. Don't worry, this job is much easier than unloading. It's not tiring to just move some messy things." Zhang Bucheng said.

's reply.

"I said, change places." Zhang Buyi's face turned cold, his tone became a little more serious, and he adopted his original attitude.

Zhang Bucheng instinctively trembled for a moment, looked at the cold-faced Zhang Buyi, and said in a panic: "Okay, okay, I will change it tomorrow, I will change it tomorrow, don't be angry."

The living room became quiet again, a little less warm and a little more cold.

"I have found a job. It doesn't matter if you can't find a job tomorrow. The money in hand is enough for ten days of food. I will receive my salary in the next ten days."

After a while, Zhang Buyi was not the original owner after all, so he opened his mouth to break the silence, with some explanations and words to reassure the other party.

"No!" The moment he heard this, Zhang Bucheng showed a tough stance in front of Zhang Buyi for the first time and said with some excitement:

"Just leave it to me to make money. Don't worry, I'll get it for you. Dad's last wish is for you to honor our ancestors. We can't let him feel uneasy."

"I didn't say I won't study." Zhang Buyi glanced at the excited Zhang Bucheng and said, "I won the first place in the last exam, and the hospital has arranged errands for the patrol room in advance."

"But, but..." But after a while, Zhang Bucheng didn't think of how to express what he meant.

But Zhang Buyi understood it and added again: "The times are different now. Even if I get a scholarship or even a scholarship, the path will not be much better than now.

Do you think it's still the past, when being a cruel official was a despicable job? Besides, being a patrol officer is a serious job! You have the guts to move those things, so why didn't you take the opportunity to learn more about the current situation?"

Zhang Bucheng paused and said in a panic: "I, I asked, there's no problem, I'm just moving some things and doing odd jobs."

"Okay, just don't go anymore anyway."

Zhang Buyi didn't want to talk to him about the era, the success or failure of the New Deal, or whether the radicals were dangerous.

There is a huge gap between the two people's visions. Directly demanding that the other party not go is simpler, more direct and effective than a little explanation.

"You go study, I'll do it!" After a moment, Zhang Bucheng said immediately, looking at Zhang Buyi who was about to wash the dishes after dinner.

Zhang Buyi paused for a moment, said nothing, put down the things in his hands, and silently turned around and entered the house.

Seeing Zhang Buyi enter the house, Zhang Bucheng quickly finished the rice in the bowl, went to the kitchen, found the noodles Zhang Buyi had placed in the kitchen, and looked at the pot with a lot of white rice.

He didn't add any more, but put all the rest of the food away. Seeing that there was still a lot of potato and vegetable soup in the pot, he felt cruel and took two pieces of cloth leftover from lunch by Zhang Yi to soak them in and eat them.

······

After Zhang Buyi entered the room, he thought about today's events and finalized three short-term goals.

The first thing is to find a way to contact woman A and try to obtain the destiny. At least, you must understand how to obtain the destiny.

The second is that if there is a chance, contact Fangfang Rui and make sure that his predecessor's death has nothing to do with him, or whether the other party has any conspiracy.

Finally, there is the matter of going to the police station to work as an errand. This is also relatively important. It is not only related to the contact with the extraordinary profession, but also related to his settlement and livelihood, and it is the current source of income.

After all, in today's era, gunpowder, cement, soap, burning glass and other messy things are available, and they are still relatively formal.

The counterfeit goods he can make based on the little things in his memory are definitely not as good as other people's industrialized goods. It is impossible to find gold by tinkering a few times.

Therefore, a job salary is currently the best way to improve your life.

After finalizing his ideas, Zhang Buyi looked at the cabinets in the room and began to read medical classics again to pass the time.

Although I don’t have extraordinary abilities, it’s always good to have a little more knowledge.

Just like that, he didn't know how long it took. When he felt that the time was almost up, he put out the oil lamp and lay down on the bed again.

······

In the middle of the night, Zhang Buyi didn't know how long he had slept. Suddenly, the book in his mind jolted, and a familiar longing came over him. It was similar to the one he saw Woman A in Tianxiang Tower before, but it felt slightly lighter.

"who!"

This feeling woke Zhang Buyi up, and then he suddenly thought of something and let out a loud roar.

The sound was not quiet, and in the silent night, it sounded like thunder and spread far and wide.

"Click...Xisuo..."

There was a strange sound, and it seemed like someone was running away in panic, and quickly moved away.

Zhang Buyi had no intention of chasing him out and sat on the bed, not daring to move.

"Kangdang..."

After a burst of noise, Zhang Bucheng knocked on the door outside Zhang Buyi's door and asked nervously: "Xiaoyi, what happened?"

Zhang Buyi finally came back to his senses, suppressed the panic in his heart, and said coldly: "I thought I heard a thief entering the yard just now, but he should be scared away now."

"What, you dare to steal on me, I'll go out and have a look." Zhang Bucheng said immediately outside the door.

"Don't go out of the yard!" Zhang Buyi warned.

"Don't worry, I'll just take a look in the yard." Zhang Bucheng replied.

There was a little movement outside the door, and Zhang Buyi calmed down at this time.

The moment he woke up with a start, he subconsciously thought that the 'horse' had come. After all, she was the only one who had that motive in the middle of the night. Therefore, he reacted like this out of fear.

But now that I have calmed down, it obviously shouldn't be the case, otherwise, the result would not be like this.

'It seems that the situation just now was like fighting a wolf with a stick. Both sides are afraid. He is not the only one who is panicking?'

Recalling the other party's hasty departure, Zhang Buyi showed a little doubt. He was afraid because of those "horses". Since the other party came to the door at night, why was he afraid?

And what exactly does the other party want to do?

I can't delay it any longer. I have to find an opportunity tomorrow no matter what, and think of some way to contact Woman A, try to get the destiny, and trigger the golden finger function.

One more day of delay will be one more day of danger. If the 'horse' discovers that he is not dead, it will be dangerous.

After all, based on the situation of the previous time travel, the opponent is definitely a professional. No matter what level he is, he is not something he can deal with.

With thoughts swirling in his heart, Zhang Buyi tossed and turned for most of the night before falling into a deep sleep.
