Chapter 2 Return (Part 2)

Xie Qingshou came back silently. To be more precise, he escaped back in a panic. When he saw his father, he couldn't even speak, and even said "Dad" and was embarrassed to scream.

Song Jinquan came over and urged: "Old Xie, I'll set the table. When will we have a drink?"

But when he saw the scene in the yard, he was also stunned. Before he could drink, he was drunk? He had hallucinations? Why did Xie Qingshou, who was far away in the south, come back?

"Qingcheng?" Song Jinquan did not treat himself as an outsider, walked into the yard and greeted him kindly: "Are you back for the New Year?"

Xie Hongxuan felt that it was not very good. His son must have come back quietly because he had something to do. He was upset and was also irritated by Song Jinquan's greetings. He pushed his good friend out and closed the door by the way: "I'll have a drink with you another day. Today I'll have a drink with my son!"

Song Jinquan wanted to watch the fun, but was pushed out, very unhappy: "Hmph! I'm 80 years old, so I won't treat me as a friend! If I don't tell me today, I will definitely know tomorrow!"

Xie Ying followed her grandfather and bit her fingers shyly. In my impression, Uncle Er only came back once, but when she was just in elementary school, Brother Chong was very young at that time. A few years passed in a flash, and they all grew up, and Xie Ying looked like a little girl. She took the initiative to say hello to Uncle Er's family. Uncle Er greeted her over, but she pulled her grandfather's clothes and refused to walk forward.

The door was opened again, and this time it was Xie Ying's aunt Xie Qingyun who came back. She complained that her father closed the door early, which made her push the cart and open the door with the other. But as soon as she entered the house, she turned into a stone statue.

"Second brother? Second sister-in-law? Xiao Chong?" Xie Qingyun called one by one, then knocked on his head: "I didn't have hallucinations, right?"

"No." Xie Qing couldn't raise his head and pushed his son: "Call him aunt!"

Xie Chong had a cold face, and no one was willing to shout. He sat on the steps at the main entrance of the main hall, sulking very seriously. Xie Ying was originally not familiar with this cousin, but now he was cold, so she dared not get close to him.

"Dad, our family is back." The person who spoke was Wang Jiying, Xie Qingshou's wife. She frequently winked at her husband and asked him to say a few words, but Xie Qingshou was dejected and could not say a word. Wang Jiying continued on for him: "Dad, it's really not to be hidden. Our family really has no place to go."

Xie Hongxuan's eyes turned dark. Just half a month ago, his second son, who had vowed to buy a house for him, became a pauper so soon?

"The factory caught fire." Wang Jiying continued: "Nothing left is left, and all the home business that has accumulated for ten years has been burned out."

Xie Hongxuan staggered. Fortunately, his daughter and granddaughter were supporting him, so he did not fall down. He became calm, but his voice was still floating: "No one was killed, right?"

"The blessing of misfortune is that no one was burned to death." Wang Jiying's expression dimmed: "However, many people were injured, and five or six were seriously injured, and they are still in the hospital."

Xie Hongxuan subconsciously touched the pocket of his chest, and he often put the money there. He keenly realized that his son needed a lot of money.

Xie Qing collected a cigarette, and his sad face became more and more vicissitudes in the smoke. Feng Yuzhen shouted in the house: "I'm ready to cook, don't stand outside, hurry up and talk!"

Xie Qingshou also shouted: "I'm just about to leave! I won't go in!"

"You dare!" Wang Jiying glared at her eyes, and Xie Qingshou immediately lowered his head, drooping his shoulders and not speaking.

"Let's go? Didn't you say it's all burned? Where else can you go?" Xie Hongxuan said in a muffled voice: "What do you mean? Let's go to the house to discuss it. It's too cold, don't freeze the child."

"No, I'm really ready to leave." Xie Qingshou said boldly: "I have planned to go to Southeast Asia and go to gold hunting! As long as I can work hard, I will be able to pay off the money I owe in three or five years."

"Since you have already decided to get out, why are you back?" Thinking of the second son's previous wandering experience, Xie Hongxuan's anger surged, and his speech adjustment stanza increased: "Didn't you just say it before? I can't accommodate you, the big Buddha when I come to this small place in the city."

"I put the knife around his neck." Wang Jiying looked fierce and stared at her husband: "If he dares to leave, I will chop him; if I can't chop him, I will wipe my neck."

...

Xie Hongxuan was shocked.

Xie Hongxuan was very satisfied with marrying this daughter-in-law back home. Not only did she look like a clever appearance, she was also a good at working. Her intelligence and skill are very famous within a few kilometers. Two years ago, Xie Hongxuan got sick and her second son and his family of three rushed back to visit her. The second daughter-in-law could soak her clothes in the gap between cooking. After the cooking, she washed the small clothes clean while taking advantage of the cold rice. When the food was cold to a temperature that was edible, she fed her son and asked her husband to feed the elderly. She boiled water while eating. When she finished her meal, all the water used for washing the whole family was cooked.

Xie Hongxuan admires her second daughter-in-law's diligence and she has a precise grasp of the coordination of time. Moreover, she is the eldest daughter in the family, and she is powerful without anger and can handle her slutty second son obediently. Therefore, Xie Hongxuan is very relieved to live with her second son. The only thing she is dissatisfied with is probably that she is too arrogant and often makes people stunned.

"Then you can't leave." Xie Hongxuan walked forward a few steps in a depressed manner, pulled his son into the house, and called Xie Chong in. Xie Chong had just come from the warm south and was very uncomfortable with the dry and cold climate in the north. In just a few hours from getting off the bus to returning home, his earlobes were red and itchy. Grandma Feng felt distressed: "Oh, my goodness, what's the crime?! You must be hungry, right? Grandma gives you another stewed chicken stand, okay?"

Who loves to eat chicken racks? In Guangzhou, he is tired of eating chicken legs.

Xie Chong still ignored everyone and did not take grandma's concern to heart. Xie Ying upset her grandma and said, "Brother, you must at least answer grandma's words!"

Xie Chong looked at this strange cousin coldly. Her cold eyes made Xie Ying feel scared, and she hid behind her grandfather again. Seeing this, Xie Chong sneered, as if saying - Just like this, he still wants to meddle in other people's business?

Wang Jiying slapped his son twice on the back without hesitation: "When you arrive at your grandpa's house, talk to me."

Xie Chong put his hands in his pockets, leaned on the kang, and didn't care about what his mother said. Wait, this thing called "kang" turned out to be quite warm? Xie Chong's hands and feet, which were so numb that he gradually regained consciousness. He couldn't help but move his butt into it a little, making the body's heated area larger.

From Xie Qingshou's intermittent description, the family understood the whole story. Xie Qingshou's clothing factory was burned down. What is troublesome is that the police cannot determine whether it was arson, a fire that accidentally started, or a spontaneous ignition of a wool ball. The only thing that can be confirmed is that the fire protection facilities of the clothing factory are unqualified.

When he sent the drawings to the fire brigade, he asked him to make rectifications, but Xie Qing gave him a gift, and the matter was over. Not only did he not change the firewall into a physical wall, but he also changed the dormitory into a warehouse, and built a factory illegally. After the fire broke out, his factory had no ability to deal with it and was quickly burned out.

Three days ago, the debt collector blocked Xie Chong's school gate. Wang Jiyun was so scared that his legs and feet became weak and hugged his son tightly in his arms. She tried her best to explain to everyone that she planned to sell the house and factory, and that her husband also sold his elder brother, Dahe BP machine, and could give them some of the money first. They would definitely not run away and told the workers not to hurt the children.

But everyone couldn't listen at all. They gathered together and their emotions were not easy to control, so they turned into trouble. Fortunately, the school teachers came out to rescue the situation and they arrived home safely. Xie Qingzhang paid money in the burned factory and was beaten. Looking at her scarred husband and her terrified son, Wang Jiyun made a quick decision and the family of three ran away overnight.

After a closer look, Xie Qing's eyes were still blue.

Xie Hongxuan felt the sky was spinning and said in a trembling voice: "You don't have to go to jail, do you?"

Wang Jiying said first: "Although the final investigation results have not been released yet, the police initially judged that it was arson by man, and it is still under investigation. Our factory is not big, the property has not been lost, and it has not affected the surroundings. The most important thing is that no human life has been born. Our main fault is that the fire prevention facilities are not qualified... As long as we actively compensate, Qingshou should not be jailed."

Xie Qing was so angry that his teeth were itchy: "I have always been very nice to workers. Why do they do this? If I catch the fire person, I will strangle him to death!"

Xie Hongxuan scolded: "When they asked you to make rectifications, why didn't you change it?"

"Many people don't change." Xie Qingzhang didn't dare to look up: "It's too troublesome to change. I don't have that much money... and so many factories have not caught fire for so many years... It's really evil. Last year, several places in Guangzhou caught fire, a printing shop caught fire, and a private house; a Karaoke caught fire, and seven or eight people were killed; a table tennis factory caught fire, and several people were killed... I repeatedly emphasized to the employees that I really did a lot of work to prevent fire, but why am I so unlucky..."

"You are unlucky? You deserve it!" Xie Hongxuan was relieved from his confused state. From the failure of his second son's career, he recalled many of his headache-inducing past events, and his speech adjustment synchronicity increased: "You are born to be a worrying material! No matter what you do, I have to worry about! Even if you make some achievements, I can't sleep well! Because I know, something will happen to you one day! I shouldn't let you go to the south, you want to

I can still watch you when I stay at home. If you are half steady as your elder brother, I will not be so disappointed with you... Not to mention your elder brother, you can't even compare with Qingyun, who is several years younger than you! You are impatient, flustered, not serious, and uneasy! You are so arrogant, arrogant, and look around, and your heart is floating in the sky! For so many years, your bad habits have not been changed! You won't let me live a peaceful life, you will embarrass me..."

The familiar spell echoed in my ears again. Xie Qingshou was so angry that he vomited blood, and planned to run away from home. This time his mother grabbed him: "Don't both of you! The most important thing now is how to repay the debt. When the family is together, there will always be a way - I said, Lao Xie, please say less. Although we are both old bones, as long as we are still there, the children will have a support! The children believed in us and came back to join us. What's the use of nagging you a lot?"

In front of the child, she was scolded by her husband. Xie Hongxuan couldn't bear it and felt that her husband was right, so she sighed in a depressed voice. His daughter-in-law Wang Jiying was very moved. She said sincerely: "Dad, mom, we are indeed not very glorious when we come back with our family this time, but we are not lazy people, and we don't want to drag you down. We give you a living expenses every month, so that we can have a place to live and have a hot meal, which is enough. As for repaying the debt, we will find a way to do it ourselves."

"How much money do you owe? Once you leave, what should those who are treating their illnesses in the hospital?"

"We first gave the money to the injured people... There are still more than ten workers who are owed their wages and have not paid. As long as the house is sold, we can return the money to them. We also borrowed money from our friends and paid a little every month. We also have to pay the orders, and we have to pay a lot. But no matter how long it will take, we must pay it back to others."

Xie Hongxuan had always covered his chest, which was where he kept his money on a daily basis, but after hearing what his daughter-in-law said, he unconsciously took down his hand. What his daughter-in-law said moved him, and at the same time made him melancholy - there was still a place to live in the wing room at home, but the family had three more mouths to eat, and there was an extra small one to go to school, and the monthly expenses were much higher. Should they be charged or not?

However, the daughter-in-law is a wise and sensible person. She doesn't want to add too much burden to the family. What's more, didn't my wife say it just now? They are still the support of the children. When the children have difficulties, they have to overcome the difficulties together.
