"None of your business." Nan said. Tan Fang smiled and got on a rickshaw: "I said, call another car and I'll take you home. Brothers don't pull Japanese. Don't you know this?" Nan Yi said with a smile, "Go quickly. I won't see you off." After Tan Fang left, Nan Yi's aggressive face dropped, and he looked back at Xiu Zhi, feeling that this man had never offended anyone, making him pitiful.She came over to talk to him, and at the same time helped with her hands: "I don't live far away, let's walk over there, and we can call a car later."

Xiu Zhi nodded: "Okay." Xiu Zhi sent Nan Yi home first, but he couldn't find the car, so he planned to walk back to the apartment by himself.It was a moonless and starless night, and the weather was not cold, but the clouds were very low, and a heavy snow covered it.Occasionally passing by a certain intersection, he saw a few men in shabby padded jackets talking around the fire. The crackling sound of the undried firewood was crackling, and the men were rough and loud, sometimes laughing. He couldn't understand what he was saying.He has been here for half a year, and he has never felt unhappy because he couldn't understand what other people said. Today, he lacks patience and good temper, and his brows are tightly furrowed.

At the entrance of the alley not far from the Japanese apartment, there is a gray-haired old man with a ten-year-old girl who sings there all the year round. The girl can sing Japanese songs, and the old man will say "Thank you, please" in Japanese while bowing. Please help," Xiu Zhi would put two copper plates in their half-broken porcelain bowls every time he passed by.But today he was in a bad mood, and his steps were fast. When the girls were singing, he passed by them without distraction. The old man knew this kind-hearted Japanese young man, he saw him approaching from a long distance away, he asked the girl to sing louder, he had been waiting for the two copper coins he was about to throw down, but Xiu Zhi just walked over like that , the old man's vision fell through.What's wrong?It must be that she sang wrongly, and she sang badly, so the kind Japanese young man didn't give money.The old man raised his hand and slapped the girl on the head.The girl cried.

Xiu Zhi had already walked a long way, when he heard the cry, he stopped and turned around.The old man wanted to beat him again, Xiu Zhi dashed up, grabbed his hand, and shouted, "Hey! Why did you hit someone?!" Seeing his arrogant attitude, the old man also lost his temper, thinking that you not only don't give money, but also meddle in other people's business, it's none of your business if I discipline my own granddaughter?He opened his mouth and babbled again, saying something that Xiuzhi couldn't understand at all, and wrestling with his wrists while speaking, Xiuzhi stretched out his hand, the old man couldn't stand up, and hit the wall behind him.Xiu Zhi covered the girl behind with his body, glared at the old man, and said word by word: "Don't hit anyone!"

The old guy knew that he would suffer losses if he fought hard, so he cleaned up the stalls and the broken bowls used to hold the money, and left. Xiu Zhi looked back at the girl. The girl's face was so thin that only her eyes and mouth were left. Her thin feet were wearing hanging trousers and worn out shoes. :What should we do now?It took less than a second for her to ask like that, and she knew the answer. She turned around and walked away, catching up with the old man in a few steps, but the old man still hit her on the head.
