After Chu Heng chatted with Xu Damao for a few words, he noticed the two boxes under his bed. His expression moved slightly and he asked with a smile: "Hey, isn't this box the one Sister Lou brought back? What's in it?
It seems to be a stone, right?”
"That's it." Xu Damao was a little drunk at this time, and he couldn't hide anything at all, so he immediately said: "I tell you, these stones are precious. I heard that the pickles made with these things are very good.
Eat, the Lou family relies on them to get started."
"So that's what happened. Why did Sister Lou come all the way back to bring this?" Chu Heng was stunned after hearing this, but he didn't believe it at all. It's not like he had never seen those stones before.
They are obviously all new stones, and there is not even a trace of pickled vegetables on the surface. If you look carefully, you can see the clues.
Unfortunately, Xu Damao's mind was not on those stones, his eyes were all fixed on the bag of gold and silver jewelry.
Xu Damao really didn't take these stones seriously. Seeing Chu Heng staring at the box, he suggested: "Hey, Hengzi, how about you take two pieces back to pickle vegetables?"
Chu Heng was immediately moved, but after thinking about it, he still suppressed his curiosity and shook his head in refusal: "Thank you in advance, Brother Damao, but my family doesn't pickle vegetables, so this thing is useless."
Although he knew very well that there was something fishy in the stone, a gentleman loves money and takes it in a wise way. Lou Xiao'e is still here. If he took the thing away at this time, what would happen?
Besides, does he, a wealthy man, lack this little money?
Seeing that he didn't want it, Xu Damao stopped insisting. He shook the half-remained wine bottle and said, "How about we two drink some? It doesn't make much sense for me to drink alone."
"This can't be done. My wife is still outside. You can drink slowly while I go outside to take a look." Chu Heng waved his hand with a smile and left the Xu family.
At this time, Lou Xiao'e was still crying and scolding, venting her anger and panic in the most meaningless way.
She never dreamed that her usually weak husband would divorce her, let alone that he would be so ruthless and ruthless that he would betray her parents!
She knew that she was finished and so was the Lou family.
Lou Xiao'e is very confused now, like a young swallow that has lost its nest, not knowing where to go in the future.
At this time, she accidentally caught a glimpse of Chu Heng coming out of Xu's house, and her expression immediately changed, and a glimmer of hope arose in her heart. With such great ability, could he help save her parents?
Thinking of this, Lou Xiao'e quickly struggled to get up, stumbled to Chu Heng, grabbed her arm, cried and begged: "Hengzi, sister, please save my parents."
"Sister Lou, you think too highly of me. How can I have such ability?" Chu Heng smiled bitterly and shook his head.
He would not touch the fire pit of Lou's house even if he were to kill him!
He remembered that in the original plot, after Sha Zhu established his relationship with Lou Xiao'e, he asked a big leader he knew to help free the Lou family.
But a businessman is a businessman after all, and profit always comes first.
After the Lou family came out, they ran away not long after and disappeared without a trace. This made the big leader who came out to let them out miserable. He was caught and attacked for a while.
Chu Heng was so special, so how could he still jump into a fire pit when he saw it?
Seeing that he could not help her, Lou Xiaoe fell to the ground in despair, covering her face and crying bitterly.
Chu Heng got tired of hearing this and turned to look at his daughter-in-law who was walking over. He whispered to her: "I can't help you here, so I'm going back. You should go back soon."
"Well, I will go back when Sister Lou gets better." Ni Yinghong said.
"Then hurry up, I'm waiting to eat honey." Chu Heng smiled evilly, winked, and walked out of the backyard.
"Pooh!"
…
Three days later, Xu Damao finally came into contact with Li Fugui under Liu Haizhong's recommendation, and successfully transferred his work to the Security Department, becoming a deputy team leader under Liu Haizhong.
One of these two people is daring to fight, the other is full of bad intentions, but they are absolutely in a wolf-like state. They have only been working together for two days, and they have made many military exploits and won the appreciation of Li Fugui.
It also made some people grit their teeth with hatred.
For example, Lou Xiao'e, this woman now lives in the house of a deaf old lady. She acts like a resentful woman all day long, always staring at Xu Damao fiercely, mentally wanting to eat his flesh and drink his blood, but she can't
I dare not take any practical action.
A coward.
Of course, these things have nothing to do with Chu Heng. His life is still as usual, including eating, sleeping, meeting, and playing with his wife every day, simple and unpretentious.
It's noon this day.
After Chu Heng had eaten, he was about to go find Old Man Lian to play chess when a drizzle suddenly fell from the sky, blocking his way, but it also eliminated the scorching heat.
"The rain is so good!"
Chu Heng stood in front of the shop door, blowing the cool breeze, breathing in the fresh air washed by the rain, and suddenly felt refreshed.
Gradually, the rain began to get heavier and heavier, and large water droplets fell from the sky, splashing into turbid water splashes.
The heavy rain has been falling for half an hour, and it has not stopped yet. Water has begun to accumulate in the streets, and it is even threatening to form a river.
Seeing this, Chu Heng quickly called Lian Qing and Guo Xia and asked the two brothers to find some cloth bags to fill with sand and soil to prevent water from flowing into the shop. He himself ran to the warehouse and checked the roof.
Check to see if there are any leaks.
After walking around the warehouse and finding nothing unusual, he was thinking about whether to go home and take a look when his uncle Ni Chen suddenly came to the grain store despite heavy rain.
What he delivered was bad news.
In the morning, Ni Yinghong's uncle in the northeast sent a telegram, saying that her grandmother was critically ill and asking her family to leave as soon as possible.
When Miss Ni heard the news, she burst into tears. She was brought up by her grandma when she was a child, so naturally she is the closest to her.
With nothing to say, Chu Heng hurriedly ran to several nearby stores to borrow two raincoats, and rushed to Ni's house with his wife.
A group of people went to the local area to discuss it, and finally decided that Ni's father and Ni's mother would take Ni Chen and Ni Yinghong back together.
Chu Heng couldn't get away because he had to look after the store, while his sister-in-law had to take care of Ni Zhen and Ni Yinghua at home.
After making the decision, they started to split up and went back to their respective units to open letters of introduction. This thing is a must-have when going out. Without it, let alone staying in a hotel, you can't even buy a ticket.
Chu Heng, on the other hand, went to get national food stamps. This is also a must-have item. Without it, eating would be a problem.
In fact, he had quite a lot of them in his warehouse, so he was just making an excuse to go out and get them.
