Chapter 156 Ding Xiang's Revenge

There is a river not far in front of the old house of the Ding family. There is a bridge one kilometer downstream from the river. On both sides of the bridge is a market. The market is not held every day. On Wednesdays and eighths, there are

Vendors traveling from place to place gather to set up stalls on both sides of the bridge. Because the bridge over the river is called Stone Bridge, the market is called Stone Bridge Market.

There are a variety of products in the market, including chicken, fish, meat and eggs, radish, leeks and small greens, deep-fried dough sticks and buns, pots and pans, farm tools and furniture, needles and thread, as well as clothes and shoes, all of which are necessities in people’s daily lives.

.The nearby villagers are accustomed to this kind of periodic market, and they will arrange their home work on the days when there is no market. When there is a market, they will go to the market to join in the fun, buy some daily necessities, and communicate with Qiliba Village

People I know well chat and smoke cigarettes.

A middle-aged man wearing a hat and a pair of yellow rubber shoes was sitting behind a roadside stall smoking a cigarette. On the plastic sheet in front of him were a dozen fish of different sizes and varieties. You could tell at a glance that this was

It was caught from the river. The fish seller was chatting with the old man selling leeks next to him.

"Uncle, today's leek dish is very fresh."

"That's right. I just cut it this morning. It's tender and fresh."

"It will be very delicious to stew the soup with your fresh leeks and my freshly caught fish."

"Hahaha, you are right, brother, you caught quite a lot of fish."

"I fish for fun when I have nothing to do. I can't finish the food at home, so I take it and sell it. I don't care about money, I just play."

The fish seller is none other than Ding Xiang.

After Ding Xiang completed the transfer procedures for Greenhouse Mining, packed up the old house, and moved the whole family here, he had more free time, so he went fishing in the river in front of his house. If he caught more fish, he took them to the market to sell.

.

When others are unable to catch fish, they will change fishing positions. But Ding Xiang is different. Whenever he goes fishing three hundred and sixty-five days a year, he is always under the big willow tree. Others are unable to catch fish.

When a fish is caught, he will try to change the bait and the fishhook, but Ding Xiang does not change anything. His eyes are on the fish float, but his heart is not on the fishhook.

The death of his brother Ding Peng weighed on Ding Xiang's heart like a mountain. He told Ding Haodang and his family to live a good life and forget about the past. He also behaved relaxed and happy in front of his family. He only appeared in front of Ding Haodang when he was fishing.

Only in this calm river water can I pull my face down and let the hatred in my heart come to mind.

Ding Xiang knows very well who is the real murderer of Ding Peng. The only purpose of killing Ding Peng is Dapeng Mining. Whoever gets Dapeng Mining in the end is the murderer. Ding Xiang does not need evidence. Ding Haomiao's kidnapping is just

Ding Xiang saw this clearly from the beginning as a little trick to speed up the transaction.

The only thing that Ding Xiang was unsure about was Bai Chen. At first, he didn't know whether Bai Chen was also involved in the murder of his brother Ding Peng, and he couldn't understand Bai Chen's purpose of pursuing Ding Haoran. Kill Ding Peng, and then kill Ding Peng.

Ding Peng's daughter married back home. Such an operation is indeed contrary to common sense.

At the beginning, he guessed that Bai Chen and Ding Haoran were just playing together, and would abandon Ding Haoran after Dapeng Mining was acquired. But the subsequent development process was far beyond his expectation. Bai Chen really married Ding Haoran.

, their second child is already one year old now.

Enemies turned into relatives. Bai Chen and Ding Haoran often brought their two children home. Looking at the two lively and lovely children, Ding Xiang's heart was full of bitterness. He didn't know that Bai Jianyi saw Ding Haoran and their two children at home.

How did he feel when he was a child? Did he feel guilt or fear in his heart? He didn't know whether Bai Jianyi really loved his grandson and granddaughter. He only knew one fact, that is, Bai Chen and Ding Haoran were together.

I bought a house in the city and don't go home often.

Facing the river water and the fish float, Ding Xiang felt conflicted in his heart. He thought about letting the matter go and letting the two families live peacefully and happily, but by doing so, he felt that he would not be able to face him after his death.

Brother. He thought about finding an opportunity to kill Bai Jianyi, but he couldn't find a perfect way. He was not afraid of exposing himself, nor was he afraid of death. If he could avenge his brother, he would be willing to be shot even if he was shot.

. What he was afraid of was that if he killed Bai Jianyi publicly, his children and grandchildren would lose their current happy life.

Ding Xiang was chatting with the uncle at the stall next to him when a cleanly dressed woman about 40 years old came to the vegetable stall.

"Come here, Sister-in-law Zheng, please bring back a handful of leeks. They are tender and are good for stir-frying with eggs, stir-frying with meat and making soup."

Mrs. Zheng squatted down and played with the leeks on the stall and said:

"Well, these leeks are really fresh, so I'll buy some."

While weighing the leeks, Mrs. Zheng turned her head and looked at the fish on Ding Xiang's stall. Her eyes immediately lit up and she said happily:

"Brother, are these two of yours water tight?"

"Yes, sister-in-law, you have really good eyesight. These two are exactly watermelon. The meat of watermelon is tender and has few thorns. It tastes best when braised in braised sauce. There are not many fish like this in the river now."

"Yes, yes, I look for this kind of fish every time I come to the market, but I can never buy it. How do you sell this fish?"

"I just caught it this morning. It's fresh. It doesn't matter the weight. It costs 20 yuan a piece."

"Okay, I want them all, you can pack them up for me."

Sister-in-law Zheng first took the leeks packed for him, and then took out 40 yuan and handed it to Ding Xiang.

"It's great now, I finally bought Shuimizi. Our boss likes to eat the eyes of Shuimizi. He said that the eyes of Shuimizi are treasures and eating them is good for people's eyes. Every time he boils Shuimizi at home, he will eat them.

Leave the fish eyes to him."

"Here, sister-in-law, please take it." Ding Xiang handed the squid to Sister-in-law Zheng.

"Brother, I will come here to buy groceries every episode. If you catch a squid again in the future, please keep it for me."

"Okay, okay, I'll keep it for you, sister-in-law."

"Do you always set up a stall in this place?"

"Yes, I may not come to every episode, but when I come, I will always be here."

"Okay, I'll make a note of it, and I'll check it out every time I come to your place."

Mrs. Zheng put away the leeks and watermelon seeds, and went to visit other stalls. Ding Xiang took out his cigarette and gave one to the uncle selling leeks next to him, and the two of them continued chatting.

"Don't you know this woman?" the uncle asked.

"do not know."

"This woman's surname is Zheng. She is the nanny of Bai Jianyi's family in Renjiacun. The boss she just mentioned is Boss Bai from Renjiacun."

"Oh really?"

"Of course it's true. Who can afford to eat these 20 yuan a piece of watermelon?"

I heard that the woman who bought the fish just now was the nanny of Bai Jianyi's family. Ding Xiang still felt a little regretful. If he knew her identity, I shouldn't have sold my two watermelons to her even if I threw them away. However, Ding Xiang's kind

My mood changed by noon.

At noon, Ding Xiang had the habit of taking a nap after lunch. He picked up the Zhongjiang Evening News on the table and returned to the bedroom. He was going to lie on the bed and read the newspaper for a while, and then take a nap. Ding Xiang flipped through a few pages of the newspaper and became sleepy.

He put the newspaper on his pillow and fell asleep. As he fell asleep, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind. He opened his eyes suddenly, grabbed the newspaper on his pillow and read it again.

The name of the article in the newspaper he read was "Death from Uremia Caused by Accidental Eating of Food Containing Lead". Ding Xiang read the article over and over again, lit up a cigarette, sat on the bed and smoked several cigarettes, his face gradually

Showed a smile.

When Ding Haoran came home with her children, she would sometimes talk about her parents-in-law's house. From her words, Ding Xiang learned that Bai Jianyi had back pain, increased nocturia, and poor appetite. After a hospital examination, he said he had kidney failure.

Great, I suspect chronic kidney disease.

After taking a nap that day, Ding Xiang did not go fishing by the river. Instead, he went into his storage room, where some chemicals used in the mine's flotation plant in earlier years were stored. He rummaged around in the storage room, looking for

When I was exhausted and sweating profusely, I finally dug out a bag of labeled chemicals from a pile of rags. The label of the drug clearly had the words "lead nitrate" written on it.

He found a small medicine bottle, filled it from the bag labeled lead nitrate, and put it in the drawer of his bedside table. Then he poured all the remaining medicine into the garbage bag and read the label on it thoroughly.

Destroyed. After doing all this, Ding Xiang drove into the city. He first threw away the garbage bag in a deserted place, and then found a pharmacy and bought a few syringes.

From then on, Ding Xiang had one more job when fishing, which was to use a syringe to inject water into the eyes of the fish he caught. After practicing for a period of time, Ding Xiang finally mastered this complicated technical task. So he took it from the bedside table

He took out the bottle of lead nitrate, dissolved it in water, and drew the clear liquid with a syringe.

After that, Ding Xiang became more diligent in fishing. He kept the watermelon he caught in a tank. Every three or eight times, he fished two watermelons to the river and injected lead nitrate into their eyes.

Later, I will take some other miscellaneous fish and rush to Shiqiao Market.

Sister-in-law Zheng really did what she said. Every time she went to Shiqiao Market, she would go shopping in the market. She would also go to Ding Xiang's stall and spend 40 yuan, and happily take away two pieces of watermelon.

Half a year later, it was the third day of the Lunar New Year, which happened to be the day of the Shiqiao market. Ding Xiang went out to sell a stall at the old place of Shiqiao market as usual, chatting with the old man selling leeks next door. Mrs. Zheng from the Bai family

She walked over from a distance carrying her basket.

"Sister-in-law Zheng, you're here to buy fish again. Can you bring some leeks with you?"

Sister-in-law Zheng ignored the old man selling leeks, but said to Ding Xiang with an apologetic look:

"Brother, I won't buy Shuimizi today. If others want you, just sell it to others."

"What's wrong, sister-in-law, doesn't the boss like fish?"

"No, brother, the boss had kidney disease again last night and was taken to the hospital. He can't eat fish today."

"Oh, it's okay, sister-in-law. If you don't buy it, I will keep these two fish for myself and not sell them." A knowing smile appeared on Ding Xiang's face, and he put the two fish in the stall.

It was in a small plastic bag and stuffed under the stall.

Two days later, Ding Haoran called and said that her father-in-law Bai Jianyi had just passed away due to uremia.

Ding Xiang first took the lead nitrate in the bedside table and the syringe in the fishing bag to the river and threw them away, then took a bottle of wine to his brother's grave.

He knelt down and kowtowed three times to his brother, and sat next to his brother's tombstone, just like how he and his brother had cuddled together and watched the stars when they were children.

He opened the bottle and poured it in front of his brother's grave. He took a big gulp and tears immediately came to his eyes. Ding Xiang choked and said:

"Brother, I finally avenged you, let the people who deserved die die, and the people who deserved happiness were happy."
