Lao Wang next door has a gloomy face and is always thinking about the women in your family. One day, he suddenly changed his face and took your place in the house...
1. Warming pot
When Zhou You's son was one month old, Lao Wang next door sent him a The gift is a thermos. Although the thermos is new, its style is very old. It looks like it was from the 1970s and 1980s.
At first, Zhou You didn't pay attention and put it in the corner. After the guests had dispersed and he was packing his things, he saw the thermos again. The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
Many guests came today, and most of them brought money. Only Lao Wang brought a thermos, which seemed very unexpected. Giving a warm pot should have been a custom during weddings in the last century, but now it is May 3, 2015, and Zhou You is serving full-moon wine to his son. Why does Lao Wang give a warm pot?
Zhou You stared at the thermos and thought hard.
Its shell is made of plastic, with a glass inner liner and a wooden stopper. At first glance, it is inconspicuous, but if you think about it carefully, you will find that it is full of profound meaning. First, it's the wrong color. There are so many colors in the world, why did Lao Wang give him a green thermos? For a man, green is definitely not a festive color and is often associated with cuckolds. Secondly, its shape is suspicious. Its body is cylindrical, thick and long, making people think of the object in a man's crotch, although the two are not comparable in size.
Connecting the cuckold and the object in the man’s crotch, Zhou You came to a conclusion that shocked him extremely: what Lao Wang next door gave him was not a thermos but a thermos. Cuckold.
Being able to associate the thermos with the cuckold shows that Zhou You is very imaginative.
Zhou You's mood suddenly turned gloomy.
In the past two years, Lao Wang next door has become very popular. There are legends about him everywhere. He has become an indispensable topic for everyone to talk about after dinner. In fact, the Lao Wang next door that everyone talks about is not just a person, but a group of men who live near your home and are thinking about your woman. However, in Zhou You's case, this vague title was specific to one person, Lao Wang next door.
If the neighbor next door is not named Wang, Zhou You may not think wildly; if the neighbor next door is young and is Xiao Wang, Zhou You may not think of cuckolding. However, his surname was Wang, and he was old. He was Lao Wang next door. The legend suddenly became reality and gave Zhou You a blow in the head.
Qu Fenfang walked out of the bedroom, glanced at Zhou You and said, "Why are you squatting on the balcony without sleeping?"
Zhou You didn't answer.
Qu Fenfang twisted her *** to go to the bathroom. After becoming pregnant, she grew from more than 90 pounds to more than 150 pounds, almost doubling in size. Now that I have given birth, I haven’t lost any weight at all, but my body is a bit deflated. Zhou You thought: Would this plain-looking woman have an affair with another man?
This kind of thing seems to have nothing to do with appearance.
Zhou You’s mind turned from the thermos to Qu Fenfang. He and Qu Fenfang were introduced to each other, and after three months together, they slept together. That was Qu Fenfang's first time seeing Hong. After that night, Qu Fenfang became pregnant and they got married. More than eight months later, Qu Fenfang gave birth to a son prematurely.
Before today, Zhou You had never doubted anything. Thinking about it now, Qu Fenfang's career makes that touch of red seem unreal. Qu Fenfang is a gynecologist and knows a woman's body structure very well. It should be very easy to change something. Following this train of thought, Zhou You continued to think: Was his son really born prematurely? Not a full-term birth? If it was a full-term delivery, it meant that someone had sown the seeds in Qu Fenfang's body before him, and this person should be Lao Wang next door.
Zhou You subconsciously touched his head. There was no hat on it.
Qu Fenfang came out of the bathroom and saw Zhou You still squatting on the balcony. She picked up an apple on the coffee table and walked over. While nibbling on it, she asked: "Where did you get the thermos? Did you buy it?"
p>"No, it was sent by Lao Wang next door." Zhou You stared into her eyes.
Qu Fenfang didn’t ask any more questions, and looked at the scenery outside the window while chewing an apple. They lived on the thirty-third floor and could see a narrow and winding river a few kilometers away.
Why did she turn a deaf ear to such a strange thing as giving a thermos? Zhou You felt that her attitude was suspicious, as if she was avoiding something. He tentatively asked: "What should I do with the thermos? We have a water dispenser at home, so we don't need it."
Qu Fenfang thought for a while and said, "I heard people say that the water in the water dispenser is unhygienic. Use the water in the thermos to make milk for your son. "She doesn't have much milk, and her son needs milk powder."
Zhou You didn’t even think of a reason to refute.
After eating the apples, Qu Fenfang went to the bedroom carrying the thermos.
Zhou You followed in.
There are two beds in the bedroom, one big and one small. The small bed has a fence. The chubby son is lying in it, sleeping soundly, and his mouth is drooling. Qu Fenfang placed the thermos on the open space between the two beds.
Zhou You squinted his eyes and stared at the thermos. Slowly, the face of Lao Wang next door appeared on the thermos. He rolled his eyes and looked at his son on the left and then on the right. Qu Fenfang's eyes were very vivid, and she seemed to be expressing the following meaning: These are all mine.
Zhou You shook his head and chased away the hallucination.
"When we got married, did Mr. Wang next door follow the ceremony?" he asked.
"I forgot." Qu Fenfang said casually while flipping through a parenting book.
"Think about it carefully."
"The wedding gift list is still in the bedside table, take a look at it yourself."
Zhou You found the gift list, No one named Wang could be found on it. He didn't know the name of Lao Wang next door. The shadow area in his heart became larger, and he thought suspiciously: When the old Wang next door didn't attend the wedding, why did he bring a thermos now?
Before leaving the bedroom, he glanced at the thermos again.
It stood there quietly, expressionless.
It is like a red flag planted on the territory, to declare independence, Zhou You thought.
Zhou You took the elevator downstairs, hid in the green belt furtively, and called his third uncle. The thermos was given to him by his third uncle, who said it was a gift from the man next door. Zhou You was greeting guests at that time. He went out to thank Lao Wang next door, but found that he had already taken the elevator down.
The call went through.
"Third uncle, let me ask you something."
"Tell me."
"What did the man say when he gave you the warm pot?" No?"
"I didn't say anything, I just smiled."
"Tell me what happened."
"Did something happen? What happened?" Third uncle asked alertly.
"Nothing's wrong, I'm just asking." Zhou You said pretending to be relaxed.
"At that time, I was standing at the door smoking. The door next door opened and he came over with a thermos. I quickly went up to take the thermos and invited him into the room to drink tea. He smiled at me , took the elevator down without saying anything."
Zhou You was silent for two seconds.
"Is everything okay?" The third uncle was still worried.
"It's okay." Zhou You laughed twice, "Third uncle, are you almost home?" Third uncle's family is in a village dozens of kilometers away. After drinking the wedding wine, he took the car back .
"We've arrived at the entrance of the village."
"Then you can go home early and rest, I'm dead."
"Take good care of your children." Three My uncle gave instructions and hung up the phone.
Zhou You squatted on the grass and began to dig out the bits and pieces in his memory about Lao Wang and Qu Fenfang next door.
He bought a second-hand house and moved in directly without renovating it. Occasionally, when I meet Lao Wang next door in the elevator, I just look at each other, smile, and say a few polite words about the nice weather. When Qu Fenfang was working the day shift, they would go out together. When they met Lao Wang next door, she would always lower her head and say nothing.
The above memory is fine.
Keep digging forward.
When she first moved here, she didn’t know where to recharge the gas card. Qu Fenfang went to the next door to ask, and Lao Wang told her an address. At that time, they stood at the door and said a few words, but did not enter.
There is no problem with the above memory.
Still need to dig deeper.
When he first bought a house, Zhou You took a fancy to a house in another community. That house was bigger and the price was not high. Qu Fenfang decided to buy the house she lives in now. She said the view from the top floor was good, no one would disturb her, and it was quiet. Zhou You argued feebly for a few words and then compromised.
There is a problem.
Is it because Qu Fenfang insists on buying the house she lives in now because Lao Wang lives next door?
Finally catching the fox's tail, Zhou You felt hot all over and wanted to do something urgently.
Lao Wang next door came back with a plastic bag containing some food purchased from the supermarket. He seems to have no parents, no wife, no children, no friends, and has always been alone. Zhou You thinks that such a person is the scariest, because he has no worries and no worries about anything he does.
Lao Wang next door glanced at Zhou You, nodded, and passed. Zhou You tasted his eyes carefully and felt that they were full of profound meaning, including ridicule, contempt, and a hint of sympathy.
Zhou You was angry.
Lao Wang next door turned around without warning, walked back, took out a red envelope from his pocket and handed it to him, saying: "This is a little bit of my heart, please accept it." After that, he stuffed the red envelope into Zhou You's hand and left in a hurry.
What is this?
A gift? I've already given it away, that's the thermos.
Alimony? There were only a few banknotes in the red envelope, too few.
Mental compensation? It seems not enough.
Zhou You believed that there was something evil going on here.
