Chapter 57 The Correct Use Of Wolfberry
Lao Liu walked to the newspaper stand a little numbly. He took out two yuan and prepared to take a newspaper and leave.
The boss stopped Lao Liu:
"Old man, I'm sorry...this newspaper costs three yuan now..."
Old Liu frowned:
"Why did it become three yuan? It used to be one yuan, then became one and a half, and then two yuan. Do you think this newspaper is made of gold?
Sell it for three yuan! ? "
The newsstand owner sighed:
“Who says it’s not the case, but when you get the goods from above, that’s the price now.
Otherwise, don’t buy it and just read the newspaper here..."
Old Liu also knew that the price change had nothing to do with the newsstand owner, but his son might wake up at any time and take out another dollar and put it on the table.
On the way back, Lao Liu looked at the recommended price of 1 yuan in the newspaper and felt a little dazed.
This humble newspaper obviously still sells for a piece, but who takes away the profit?
When he returned to the small house by the river, his youngest son had woken up and was squatting by the river brushing his teeth.
Seeing that Lao Liu was back, he quickly came over:
"Dad, have you read the newspaper? Let me read it first."
Old Liu had already read most of the contents on the way, so he handed over the newspaper:
"Wolfberry, why are you up so early? Why don't you play with your mobile phone?"
Lao Liu's youngest son is called Liu Houqi, but he has loved drinking wolfberry since he was a child, so others jokingly call him wolfberry.
Slowly, even Lao Liu called him wolfberry.
Wolfberry spat out the toothpaste foam in her mouth and muttered:
"This phone is broken. I can't connect to the Internet at all, and I can't even make calls."
Hearing this, Lao Liu made a sound.
His eldest son first learned that he had gone to the front line, then lost contact, and finally the white-haired man sent the black-haired man.
After Liu Gouqi finished washing up, he read the newspaper and finished a bowl of hot dry noodles.
Lao Liu decided to have a showdown with him:
"Son, I want to tell you something..."
Wolfberry raised his head, his face a little uneasy:
"Dad, stop talking. I really didn't mean it yesterday..."
Old Liu was stunned:
"Yesterday, what did you do yesterday?"
Liu Gouqi rolled up his sleeves, and a pinprick appeared on his arm.
Looking at the huge needle eye, Old Liu couldn't help but almost fainted.
Could it be that his younger son was also injected!
Old Liu was anxious:
"Wolfberry! How can you make your own decisions!?"
Wolfberry's face remained unchanged and a little embarrassed:
"Dad, I didn't mean it... I just wanted to avenge my brother..."
Old Liu was angry:
"Revenge! What revenge?! We are all Chinese, what's the point of beating our own people?
Who are you going to kill? ! Who can you kill? ! You went to the front line and died in the same mysterious way as your brother, becoming cannon fodder for others. Is this your way of avenging your brother? ! "
Old Liu's chest was like an old bellows, rising and falling very fast.
After working hard for most of his life, Old Liu worked hard to support this family. He originally thought that by the time he was old enough, his two sons would have reached the age to start a family and start a business, and people came one after another to come to talk to each other.
But now, one died on the battlefield.
The other one took the initiative to die.
Old Liu sat there, like a cow that had been hit on the head by a hammer, looking extremely desolate and dejected:
"If you go to Jiangcheng Military Region, you will no longer have me as your father, and your surname will not be Liu..."
Now, it was Liu Gouqi's turn to be stunned:
"Dad, no! I injected the genetic mutation medicine yesterday, but it had no awakening effect at all. Those people have already left..."
Old Liu turned his head and couldn't help but feel ecstatic:
"Wolfberry, seriously, you really haven't awakened?!"
Liu Gouqi nodded slowly:
"Dad, tell me, is it because I am too weak..."
Since he was 10 years old, he felt that he needed to take a supplement. At the age of ten, he started eating red dates and wolfberry non-stop.
Old Liu looked up to the sky with a long smile, and the depression of many days was gone. He hugged Liu Gouqi, who was a little confused:
"It's okay, we don't want to awaken our powers from now on, just live a good life."
Liu Gouqi was held tightly in his arms by his father, who was half a head shorter than him. He was a little at a loss:
"Dad, don't you blame me? I lost my brother's pension..."
Old Liu sighed:
"I don't blame you. It's not you who harmed your brother. It was me. I insisted on injecting the genetic mutation into your brother to make him stand out.
Now think about it, isn’t it good to be an ordinary person? "
Old Liu, who had just climbed back from the eighteenth level of hell, seemed to have experienced the greatest joy in his life:
A false alarm.
Old Liu looked at the recruitment information posted by Han Shi in the newspaper:
"Son, how about we go to Jinling?"
Wolfberry raised his head and was about to agree, but he suddenly paused.
Lao Liu looked at his son's shocked eyes and couldn't help but feel a little confused. From Wolfberry's pupils, he saw a group of people standing behind him.
Old Liu turned his head, and in the morning light, a handsome young man showed a soft smile:
"Hello, uncle, my name is Jiang Yize...
I think your son may need a little help..."
