Chapter Sixty Two
The meal was eaten until after nine o'clock in the evening, and everyone was drunk. Especially Song Daozhen-Tao Mu has known the old man for so many years and has never seen him drink more than two or two. I was drunk as drunk today. When I was helped by everyone to lie down in the front room, my mouth was still muttering something. Tao Mu was in a daze when he heard the old man say "Little Wen'er".
Dean Tao took off his clothes and shoes for the old man Song, helped him to lie on his side, and added warm water to the old man to wipe his face and hands. After everything was packed, he took the dirty clothes that Old Man Song had taken off, and dragged Tao Mu out of the hall.
The moonlight is like water and the cool breeze is refreshing. Moonlight poured down from the old locust tree with shadows, like a thin layer of gauze, covering the quiet courtyard. The people who were already drunk went to the wing and lay down to sleep.
Dean Tao put the clothes that Mr. Song had taken off into a enamel washbasin that had fallen out of paint, and put it under the faucet. As he washed, he said: "The little Wen'er that Old Man Song talked about was his son who died early. His name was Song Yunwen. He usually never talked about the previous things. Today is drunk, let's be in love with the scene."
Tao Mu felt soft and couldn't help asking: "Then the old man hasn't thought about building a new home for so many years?"
Dean Tao was silent for a while, followed by the movement of his hands. After a long period of time, he said lightly, "No. It's probably because the previous thing hurts too much. He always talks, saying that the fortune teller says he is a lone star, he will kill his wife and his son, and he will marry a wife. To have children is to harm others and oneself, so you should be alone all your life."
"Can a fortune teller take it seriously?" Tao Mu lived a lifetime, most disbelieving. Hearing these words, I felt very disapproving: "The life is my own life, I don't believe in fate. From now on I will be the grandson of the old man, I will accompany him for the rest of my life, and give him his retirement.
After a pause, Tao Mu said to Dean Tao again: "Dean, in my heart you are my grandmother. I will also support you in the future."
Tao Mu said this from the bottom of his heart. But he didn't expect Dean Tao to suddenly become angry, glared at him, and whispered, "What nonsense!"
Tao Mu was taken aback, watching Dean Tao holding the enamel washbasin and walking under the grape rack to dry his clothes. The moonlight like a filter shone on half of her face, and the outline of Dean Tao was extinguished in the moonlight, and there was a mixture of sadness and joy.
Tao Mu scratched his hair stupidly, and his brain, which had always been running fast, became more and more sluggish under the erosion of alcohol. Still didn't want to understand why Dean Tao was angry at him.
Tao Mu, who couldn't understand it, entered the West Penthouse by himself—the Song's courtyard was the old-fashioned Sanjin Mansion. At the front is the seat retreat, which was changed by Song Daozhen to open the Songji restaurant. Further inside is the main courtyard. Old man Song lives in the main room by himself, and the side rooms on both sides are locked with big brass locks, and no one is allowed in at ordinary times. Behind it is the back cover room, which used to be occupied by two people in the restaurant. Later, the two guys got married and started a business, and both moved out. Old man Song used the back cover room as a warehouse utility room.
In the empty courtyard, Tao Mu has his own room, the West Penthouse. It has been renovated according to Tao Mu's preferences. Air-conditioning, TV, and computers are all available. Even the thickness of the bed is Tao Mu's favorite. The quilt is tanned every day, and it still smells of the sun. Tao Mu felt drowsy as soon as he went up, and fell asleep after a while.
Then he was dazed, dreaming of what happened when he was a child--
When Tao Mu was five years old, he broke into Song Ji's back kitchen, held the old man Song's leg and raised his head to call Grandpa. He looks good, has a sweet mouth, and is a small person. He begged Old Man Song with a milky voice to let him do some miscellaneous meals in Songji. He said that the rice in the orphanage is not delicious. Song Ji’s rice smells fragrant across the street: "Grandpa, you cook so fragrantly, you must be capable. I want to learn from you. I will work for you. I don’t want to Money, you can just give me a bite of food."
What can a five-year-old kid do? Old man Song had a solitary temperament, and he was the most impatient of the screaming bear children in the alley. But Tao Mu was a small ball, soft and white. When he held Old Man Song's thigh, Old Man Song could clearly feel that the child's body temperature was higher than that of the adult. He looked down at Tao Mu, Tao Muwu's slick eyes were full of him.
Old man Song felt relieved all at once. He thought of his son. When he was sent down, his wife couldn't bear hardship, and left the old man and the child to remarry. His son has been wandering the streets since he was a child. He is hungry and full every day, perhaps just like Tao Mu. If someone was willing to stretch out his hand to control his son, maybe his son would not learn badly, and he would not be shot during the crackdown.
Tao Mu stayed in Song Ji. He is too young to do heavy work. Just in the back kitchen to help wash the dishes and vegetables. The old man Song taught Tao Mu to cook in his free time, from peeling potatoes and cutting potato shreds to carving and thickening the spoon. Tao Mu learned from Song Old Man for seven or eight years. During the winter training and the summer training, there were layers of calluses on his hands, and scars on his fingers, and he had never screamed or screamed tired.
So Old Man Song regarded Tao Mu as a closed disciple. When the old man Song learned to cook, he emphasized that he was a teacher for a day and a father for life. When the master recognizes his apprentice, he not only has to teach the apprentice the craftsmanship, but he also has to worry about the future for the apprentice, and even has to deal with important matters of marriage. Nothing worse than father and son.
Old Man Song also changed the western penthouse to the west of the main house, which was originally the study room, to Tao Mu. It is convenient for Tao Mu to rest and sleep after finishing his homework every night and practicing the basic skills of knife skills. No more tossing back to the orphanage. Tao Mu lived in the courtyard at the age of six and went to junior high school at the age of twelve. Some people began to joke that Tao Mu always smelled of soot, **** and garlic, which was very unattractive.
Tao Mu didn't want to do it in Song Ji because there were too many people laughing at it. I went to work in a western restaurant outside the alley. Because wearing a vest shirt looks more foreign than a coat and cloth shoes. Later, Tao Mu continued to play various "foreign" odd jobs. He is good-looking, sweet-mouthed, and solicits guests wherever he goes. So even if he is younger, everyone loves to use him.
Tao Mu goes to school during the day and works part-time at night, specifically looking for a place where there are staff dormitories. After work, I just fooled around in the staff dormitory. He is a very stubborn person. Since he is not working in Songji, he will not rub the courtyard of the Song family. But he would still go to Song Ji every weekend, taking all kinds of delicious and fun Western food from his part-time shop to see Old Man Song.
Old man Song would scold him every time he saw him, despising him for being ignorant and not doing proper business. So gradually, Tao Mu didn't even love Song Ji. When you buy something, throw it at Dean Tao and ask Dean Tao to help him transfer it.
By the third summer vacation, Tao Mu went to work at night by accident. The staff dormitory in the night is a high-end apartment that Liu Yao bought as a package for investment. Too lazy to rent out, simply live for employees. The decoration is luxurious and the location is good, and there is a large floor-to-ceiling window in the living room. Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, I wish I could see most of the city of Yanjing. That is the best house Tao Mu has lived in since childhood. And the people in the store are very fashionable. Whether it is a resident singer or the Cowboy MB, one looks better than one and the other is richer, and they wear famous brands.
These people are also good to Tao Mu. Knowing that Tao Mu is an orphan, he gave Tao Mu the outdated designer clothes that he didn't like to wear, taught Tao Mu to sing, teach Tao Mu to mix wine, teach Tao Mu to make up, and some even teach Tao Mu how to seduce rich women. However, after being known by the boss, he was beaten up violently.
But Ye Se has a bad reputation. Someone saw him working in the night, and went back to gossiping in front of Old Man Song. Old man Song angrily made a noise with his broomstick. Must take Tao Mu back. That day happened to be Tao Mu's birthday. Everyone in Ye Se celebrated Tao Mu's birthday. The boss Liu Yao even opened a bottle of XO, most of which was drunk by Tao Mu. When Old Man Song came over, Tao Mu was already drunk and inhuman.
He impatiently broke away from the old man Song, let him go wherever he came, don't delay him making money. He also said that Old Man Song is not him and he is not qualified to control him. He Tao Mu is an orphan with no father or mother, and even his parents don't want him. No one can control what he likes to do.
Old Man Song slapped him severely that night and walked away tremblingly. When he returned home, he threw away all the dishes he had made in one day, and dumped them into the trash can along with Tao Mu's favorite birthday peach.
Tao Mu only found out afterwards. Cheeky, went to apologize to Old Man Song. After a whole basket of good things, Old Man Song was finally coaxed. Old Man Song told him to leave the night, Tao Mu was not happy. The two quarreled again, and Tao Mu ran back to the night unhappy. Then went to apologize to Liu Yao. Because Old Man Song almost smashed the night.
Tao Mu felt that the best thing for him in the night was the boss Liu Yao and his wife Meng Qi. To curry favor with everyone, Tao Mu always cooks for everyone. He was only fourteen or five years old at that time, because he was good-looking and could talk, and he made more money than others by selling alcohol. He helped Kevin sing on his behalf, and he could collect seventy to eighty thousand for a tip for one night. The little girls in the bar gathered around to see him while standing at the bar to give people a taste of wine. But sometimes bad things happen. For example, when a drunk guest slapped his anger, he was forced to drink with a pile of money in the face, and he was given a thousand yuan for a drink; and he was entangled by a guest asking him to introduce him to support him, everyone has it. .
Later, Liu Yao pushed him in the back kitchen and asked him to help with the cooking, so that he was not allowed to go out. Tao Mu has worked in Song Ji and western restaurants, and can do everything. And the guests especially recognized his craftsmanship. Brother Yao dared to sell it for 78 yuan for a bowl of egg fried rice. But Tao Mu didn't like being in the back kitchen, so Liu Yao and Meng Qi coaxed him and were willing to divide him. A bowl of fried rice sells for 78, half of it. A bowl of fermented meatballs sells for sixty-six for twenty.
Tao Mu's purse swelled up all at once. But he learned how to spend money lavishly from the people in the night, and he is greedy for enjoyment. And he also saved money to remodel the circuit of Old Man Song's courtyard house. He replaced old man Song with a new LCD TV, refrigerator and air conditioner, and also changed the latrine to a pumping water. Old man Song was panicked because he thought he had two money, so he fooled Old Man Song, saying that he would have to live when he came back later, and he didn't like to come back if the house was in rags.
Old man Song stopped talking. As a result, the courtyard was remodeled and he never went back to live. After all, the remodeling of the quadrangle courtyard is just such a big broken courtyard, where there are high-end apartments that are comfortable to live in.
Later in the night, he also met a few small models who often come to clubbing. Those little models played well with him, so they tricked him into becoming a model and dressing up for those online businesses. Tao Mu looks good, he is a natural hanger. Whatever you wear, you can wear your own style. Those online businesses like to use him. It's a pity that Tao Mu went there at no time, he went in winter. In the winter in the unheated studio, people had to be shirtless to take pictures. After the photo was taken for several hours, Tao Mu sneezed from the cold and got a fever when he went home. The thousands of dollars I earned are all used to buy medicine.
When Meng Qi took care of him, he was ridiculed by the way. If he was silly, he would be blessed not to enjoy it. It’s so good to stay in the kitchen every day after the night, and I can’t cook a few dishes all night. Make so much money gently and skillfully. It's not much better than going out in the big winter and getting cold.
Tao Mu was pretty innocent at the time. I didn't hear that Meng Qi and Liu Yao were worried that the model circle was too messy and that the children would not learn badly under their noses. So I don't want him to interact too deeply with those models.
Tao Mu felt that being a model is really bitter and not fun. So after that group of models called him again, he stopped going. But Tao Mu is interested in taking pictures again. He went to the cameraman who took pictures of him, and let someone teach him to take pictures. After finishing school, I worked part-time in the cameraman's studio. The cameraman is quite famous in the industry and occasionally picks up celebrity posters. He asked Tao Mu to be his assistant, and Tao Mu got in touch with the film and television circles.
At that time, he was catching up with Tao Mu's third year of high school. He originally wanted to work directly without going to college after graduating from high school. Anyway, he thinks going to university may not have earned as much as he is now. As a result, the photographer and the assistant of the advertising agency suggested Tao Mu to apply for the film and television school. He also said that Tao Mu was so good and so smart. As long as he reads out of the class, he will definitely be a big star.
Tao Mu was fooled by these people to apply for an art exam. Both Jingying and Yanying passed. In the end, Jingying reported to Jingying--because the old man Song didn't agree with him as an actor, he felt that he was particularly unreliable. Later, I asked about it and found out that after the students of Beijing Film University graduated, they would be able to become a drama actor at the worst, and they were also arranged to pay five insurances and one housing fund. It's better than Yanying can't play a TV series and have to switch careers or go to the top.
Tao Mu and Old Man Song had a headache, and finally saw Old Man Song finally relieved and didn't bother to think about whether Jingying was right for him. Just read Jingying directly.
Later, he went to H Town and walked around, as if he had passed a lifetime, and returned to Yanjing. I recognized two dads, and a grandfather. Then I think about those old things again, as if I had added a layer of filter. Doesn't feel bitter at all. A heart that is always drifting like duckweed also settles firmly on the ground, as if a big tree has taken root. Slow germination, stretched freely.
The quiet moonlight passed through the window and quietly crawled into the west penthouse.
Tao Mu stretched his eyebrows in his sleep, and the corners of his lips curled like a last quarter moon hanging high in the sky.
A teardrop slipped quietly from the corner of the eye, and it was invisible on the pillow towel.
Tao Mu was sleeping and dreaming. In the dream, there is Father Song, his father Yao Xiaoqi, and Dean Tao...
They are all his relatives.
