In the evening, crystal snowflakes fell one after another from the dark sky, causing many pedestrians to turn their heads white.
"Tu tu tu tu!"
When Chu Heng came home from get off work, he hummed a little tune and took out a bag of Mediterranean red shrimp from the trunk.
Ni Yinghong dreamed of this thing last night. She hugged Chu Heng's arm and chewed it several times in the middle of the night. There are still teeth marks on his forearm.
Therefore, in order to avoid being eaten at night, Chu Heng quickly prepared a bag for her today so that Xiao Ni could eat as much as she wanted.
"It's time to get off work, Brother Liu!"
After taking out his things and closing the trunk, he happened to meet a neighbor next door who was coming back from get off work. Chu Heng raised his hand and greeted him enthusiastically.
"Oh, you just came back." Brother Liu politely got off the bicycle, looked at the red shrimp in his hand, and raised his eyebrows: "Hey, these shrimps are not small, where did you buy them?"
"I didn't buy them, they were given to me by a comrade in arms. Come on, come on, take some back for your children to try." Chu Heng quickly grabbed a handful from the net bag and stuffed it into Brother Liu's basket without any explanation.
"What are you doing? No, no, no, take it back quickly. This thing is quite expensive."
"It's expensive, it's free, just take it and take it."
"Oh, thank you then!"
"Hey, neighbor, you're welcome. See you later. I have to go back and cook the prawns."
Chu Heng waved goodbye, turned around and opened the door to enter the hospital.
Brother Liu looked at him with a smile on his face. After the courtyard door was closed, his face immediately turned cold. He looked at a few palm-sized red shrimps in the car frame and spat softly: "Bah! It must not have been a good way to get there.
!They are all cannonballs of capitalism!”
With that said, he picked up the red shrimp as a gesture of throwing it, but as soon as he raised his hand, he hesitated again.
This shrimp is so big.
It must be very fragrant, right?
Capitalism is capitalism, and shrimps are innocent, right?
And it would be a pity to throw it away!
"Huh, I've eaten your sugar coating, and I've paid back the cannonballs in full!" Brother Liu smiled coldly, put the prawns back into the basket, and pushed the bicycle back to the courtyard next door with excitement.
"Son! Look what dad has brought back for you!"
"Ah, prawns, these are really big. Where did you buy them, Dad?"
"You don't care where you bought them. Hurry up and ask your mother to boil water and cook these shrimps."
"Alas."
The red shrimps were so big that no matter how big Chu Heng's hand was, he couldn't catch many. There were only four of them in total. Fortunately, Liu's family was not big. The eldest brother went out to live after getting married. There were only three people at home, Brother Liu, his wife, and their youngest son.
, which is quite enough.
After a while, the prawns were cooked, and the family of three gathered around the dining table. On the table were a bowl of pancakes, a bowl of vinegared cabbage, and four steaming red shrimps.
"Come on, son, eat." Brother Liu smiled and picked up a shrimp and handed it to his son. Then he also took one and looked at the brightly colored and plump prawns. He carefully peeled off the shells and bit into them.
He took a bite of the meat, which was firm and fragrant. It was better than any prawns he had ever eaten.
“This shrimp is so delicious!”
After taking a bite, the younger son's face showed a look of surprise, and he ate it quickly.
Seeing this, his wife secretly swallowed her saliva, gently peeled off the meat of the prawn in her hand, put it on her son's plate, and said lovingly: "If it's delicious, eat more."
"You don't want to eat? Mom."
"Mom doesn't like meat, but likes shrimp shells." His wife smiled and picked up a piece of shrimp shell and put it in her mouth, chewing the remaining shrimp meat and juice carefully. It was surprisingly delicious.
Brother Liu on the side suddenly felt very uncomfortable when he saw it. He looked at the pitiful four shrimps on the table angrily.
Why can my family only eat so much and even be reluctant to throw away the shrimp shells, but my grandson is bringing home bags after bags?
The more he thought about it, the more unfair he felt. Even the prawns in his hands felt tasteless, so he secretly grinded his teeth and gave the remaining prawns to his son.
"I had dinner at work in the afternoon. I'm not very hungry. You can eat."
After that, he ignored his wife's surprised look, got up and went back to the back room, came to the desk, found paper and pen, gritted his teeth and started writing Chu Heng's report letter.
An emotion called jealousy made his expression look particularly ferocious.
In the blink of an eye.
The sky was getting dark, and the snow outside was still falling, with no sign of stopping. A thick layer of white snow had accumulated on the ground, up to the ankles.
Huniu thought that the snow this time must be ice cream, so she secretly took a big bite, but was disappointed.
When Chu Zhecheng saw her, she turned around and went to find Qin Jingru and Gao Mi. The furious Qin Jingru whipped her more than ten times with a feather duster, and she cried so much that she was very sad.
"Ouch!"
"Creak, creak, creak!"
Outside the Chu Family Courtyard, Brother Liu pushed his bicycle past with a pile of reports he had just written. Hearing the loud cries coming from the courtyard, he curled his lips and quietly left Banchang Hutong.
He first went to the sub-district office, then the district, city, XF bureau and other units, wherever they could control Chu Heng, he submitted a report letter to them all.
He couldn't remember how many times he had done this kind of thing. Although there was no movement, he still persevered and would give in every now and then.
He always firmly believes that one day these letters will appear where they should appear, and Chu Heng, a worm and an enemy agent, will eventually be judged!
…
The next day.
Last night, Chu Heng, who secretly went to the basement to spend half the night with Qin Jingru, came out of the courtyard with a glowing face.
"I'm leaving first, brother."
Qin Jingru also pushed her bicycle out of the courtyard at this time, waving to Chu Heng with a smile, her beautiful eyes that were shining as if they could attract people's soul.
"Slow down, be careful."
"well!"
Chu Heng stared at the second room going away and couldn't help but reminisce about last night. With a smile on his lips, he opened the car door with the key, started the car and left.
As soon as he left, Brother Liu from next door also came out pushing his bicycle. Looking at Volga going away, Brother Liu, who was shrinking from the cold, groaned and rode his bicycle slowly out of Banchang Alley.
Not long after.
Brother Liu passed by the subdistrict office and happened to meet Xiao Huang who had just arrived at the unit. He glanced at some pieces of letter paper in Xiao Huang's hand, his eyes flashed slightly, and he greeted with a smile: "You came early enough, Xiao Huang.
.”
"I'm here to burn the stove today. You need to be early...go to work, Brother Liu."
"Oh, let's go to work."
After saying hello to Brother Liu, Xiao Huang stuffed the letter into his pocket, went to light up the stove, then returned to his office and took out the letter from his pocket.
There were four pictures in total. After he opened them one by one, he found as expected that three of them were about Chu Heng and the other one was about the old eunuch Zhang Datong.
These two people can be said to be frequent visitors to the subdistrict office, and they receive some reporting letters about them every now and then, and the contents are just that.
The old eunuch is simple, nothing more than his identity and his past affairs.
