On the way back, I didn’t ask Menmen why Lao Xiang was sentenced to five years, and given Men Men’s ability and relationship with Lao Fu, why Lao Xiang hasn’t been brought into action until now.
Obviously, Lin Hengfa still feels bad about losing one of his hands. If one of us dies, this matter will be over.
Lao Xiang was sentenced to five years, which must be a bit too much, because I was the principal culprit, and Lao Xiang was just the middleman who introduced me. If you say he is guilty, then you are guilty, and if you say he is not guilty, it is reasonable, because when the loan was borrowed, Lao Xiang was not in the middle. What guarantee do you sign?
Therefore, being sentenced to five years and not yet active, Lin Hengfa must have been behind this matter, and there may also be... Li Shuishui's involvement.
Of course, if I question him, he will definitely tell me that he can't help himself, so there is no need for me to ask...
With the door open, the car took us back to Shangri-La. The previous house had not been taken care of for a long time and was no longer habitable, so we could only live here temporarily.
"...I didn't eat well just now. Are you hungry?" I asked Xiaoyou.
"What do you think, have I had dinner since I came back from you?" Ma Xiaoyou asked, blinking her big eyes.
"Okay, then you go up first and I'll buy you something to eat."
"Let's come together. I've been sitting here all day and I want to do some exercise." Ma Xiaoyou said.
"...It's late at night, if you have anything to go for a walk, you can go back and I'll drive to Nannan." Menmen turned around and said with a smile.
Ma Xiaoyou was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, then go ahead."
After saying that, Ma Xiaoyou got out of the car and returned to the hotel first.
…
Menmen drove on the road, and there was silence in the car.
"...What do you want to say?" I suddenly rushed to the door and asked.
"Before you started to pay back the money, someone had already started to help you pay it back." Menmen sighed and replied with a frown.
"...Is she okay?" I pursed my lips and asked.
"The hot pot city was taken away by the bank. She opened a dry cleaning shop in the nearby county. She worked there for three years by herself. Sometimes I didn't have time, so she was the one who saved money for Uncle Xiang. At the beginning, she paid It was she who owed you the money. Later, you paid back the more than five million, and she felt a little more relaxed... Nannan, as a brother, it is a bit inappropriate for me to mention this matter to you at this time, because you and Xiao Yu is very stable. I said it just to cause trouble for you, but as a bystander, I think An An is interested in you... We won't talk about it if we are together or not, but I think it is appropriate to say thank you in person... "
He said with the door open and looking straight ahead.
"Lao Xiang told me that she was kind to my family." I replied, dragging my chin.
"...What's going on, you can weigh it yourself. When you get there, the first store you turn to when you enter the alley is her dry cleaning shop." Menmen had already driven to the outskirts of the city before he knew it, and then stopped the car on the side of the road. , said slowly.
I sat in the car, thought for a moment, frowned, opened the car door, and walked out alone.
In the narrow and long alley, every time I took a step, my feet felt extremely heavy.
In three years, Ma Xiaoyou accompanied me through the most difficult time, and An An did not find a partner to get married, and lived a happy life. She was just as difficult as she was, and she was still giving in silently...
After walking for who knows how long, I arrived at the dry cleaning shop that Menmen mentioned. It didn’t have a name, so it was just called a dry cleaning shop.
But what is surprising is that in this dry cleaning shop, the rolling shutter door is closed, and a piece of red A4 paper is pasted on the wall, saying this.
All the clothes have been returned and the store will be closed and will no longer be open starting today.
The date written under this notice is exactly the day I came back with Ma Xiaoyou.
I quit... I closed the shop...
I stood stiffly at the door and was stunned for four or five minutes. Then I stepped forward and knocked on the rolling shutter door, but no one answered in the room, and there was silence without a trace of movement.
…
Ten minutes later, I returned to the car.
"The conversation is over." Menmen asked in shock.
"Let's go..." I said slowly after holding it in for a long time.
"...Why are you leaving?" Menmen asked puzzledly.
"She is avoiding me... because I didn't look for her first when I came back..." I turned to look out the window and said.
"It's because you should take Xiaoyou with you when you come back." Menmen replied slowly.
"You don't understand An An... We will meet, yes, let's go."
I spoke out.
"Hey, you can't imitate me. Otherwise, don't love anyone at all. Otherwise, just love them all. How can you be guilty of this life and death? What kind of JB society is this? This kind of thing between men and women, you The balance is not good yet." Menmen commented speechlessly.
"...I'm upset, please leave it alone and go back."
I waved my hand and replied.
…
After shopping, I returned to the hotel. Ma Xiaoyou was browsing fashion pictures online, with a facial mask on her face and she was very hungry.
"Eat..."
I put the bag on the table, opened my mouth and said.
"We met."
Ma Xiaoyou stared at the screen and said crisply.
"……."
I was speechless for a moment, scratched my nose, shook my head and replied, "I haven't seen you."
"You are very honest, little comrade. Didn't I tell you not to tell the truth to women?" Ma Xiaoyou turned around like a leader sizing up his employees and patted me on the shoulder.
"I think you have the right to know."
"What annoys me the most is your righteousness. Can you say something more down-to-earth?" Ma Xiaoyou suddenly curled his lips.
"...Okay, I'll lie next time."
"Oh, you dare to lie to me." Ma Xiaoyou suddenly raised his eyebrows and started to become unreasonable.
"Then what do you want?" I asked hesitantly.
"I want to find trouble." Ma Xiaoyou gritted his silver teeth and looked at me with watery eyes.
"...Okay, then you can find it. Come and fuck me."
I followed her words, spread my hands and said.
"You're just talking, go away, I don't want to see you..."
Ma Xiaoyou rolled his eyes, then turned around and ran to grab the food.
I looked at her back, stretched out my hand to hug her from behind, poked her shoulder with my chin, and said softly: "Youyou, it's been three years... No one can replace our countless memories... Don't worry, I will understand." Your parents...you don't have to think about anything, just build your tailor shop...that's it..."
"I've almost saved enough money. Let's make an AA deal and buy a house in H city." Ma Xiaoyou said crisply while playing with the food.
"Haha, how much money do you have?" I asked with a smile.
"...Uh...it can only be used for hundreds of thousands..."
"After working for three years, you really made a lot of money." I said speechlessly.
"...Well, we can't compare with the nouveau riche...Hey, husband, do you still eat lobster with yellow noodle sauce now?" Ma Xiaoyou turned around and asked seriously.
"You need to be dealt with. Sooner or later I will do it with you blindfolded."
I replied harshly, but was speechless.
P.S.: I wish you a happy Lantern Festival, peace and good health. Also, today’s lantern riddle is: chrysanthemum. The guess will be a surprise and will be revealed tomorrow (′-ω-`)
