This is not the first time for Aunt Jin to go out in the middle of the night.
In the past, I would cry and curse while walking, just to come over from my old house and find trouble for my second son in the middle of the night. If something didn't go well, I would cry out, and it was common to be unable to sleep in the middle of the night. When a person is scared, he would walk and curse, in order to give him some trouble.
Be brave. Then more people will definitely hear it along the way.
Many people woke up in the middle of the night, and inevitably cursed secretly, and then said that the second brother was unlucky and that my mother was causing trouble again.
Now Aunt Jin went out and fell down in the middle of the night. There were people on both sides of the road, so why didn't anyone hear the noise and come out?
Many people said that they heard some noise. It was not because of the heavy wind and snow last night. Occasionally they heard one or two sounds and thought the sound was familiar. They thought it was Aunt Jin who got up in the middle of the night to torment her sons again. No one took it seriously.
, turned over and fell asleep again.
Someone who knew the details said: "I still don't trust the fifth child to take care of the child by himself."
It's winter, and no one has been living in the old house. The kang is cold, and the ice pot is cold on the stove. The fifth child is fine, but for such a small child, something will happen if you don't take good care of it. No matter who you leave it to, no one will sleep at night.
Not practical.
He must have gotten up in the middle of the night to see the children.
But some people don't think so. When someone said this, Ma Xiaoting said: "My mother is satisfied that she doesn't have to look after her children. She gets up at night and goes to the city to pick up rags to make money..."
These words made people feel very heartless. What made people even more speechless was that Ma Xiaoting was standing here without any embarrassment.
She was not here yesterday, but now she appears at dawn today. If she was not in town yesterday, no one would believe it.
When I came back, I didn't go over there to take off my mourning clothes for my father-in-law, and I didn't wish my mother-in-law on her birthday. I secretly went home and hid, but today I can stand here confidently and say something like that.
If Aunt Jin knew that Ma Xiaoting was there, would the child be left unattended and would she still go out at night? Would this happen if she didn't go out?
Lao Wu raised his head and glared at Ma Xiaoting fiercely: "Shut up!"
Ma Xiaoting's face drooped and she turned around and walked out.
Lin Yutong and Fourth Master didn't care about the quarrel and lawsuit at the door, they both stared at Aunt Jin lying on the bed.
The doctor said, he was already gone when it was delivered. Pull it back.
This sudden energy is a bit hard for people to accept. Yesterday, I was still fine. I could drink a few glasses of wine and joke loudly with others, but this is gone.
Still nothing!
Either death at home or death outside is considered a violent death.
How to deal with this situation?
Let’s transport the people back first.
As a result, everyone was put on the truck, and the boss came over. When he came, his face and neck were covered with bloody marks scratched by fingernails.
The man who came to help said that it was a fight between the couple. They all thought that Aunt Jin was in the hospital. Jin Mancheng wanted to come, but Li Xianer didn't ask him to go. Jin Mancheng said that if you don't go, give me five yuan, as a token of your gratitude to my mother. Li Xianer
He wouldn't give her life or death. Just for these five dollars, Jin Mancheng never resisted Li Xianer. He resisted for the first time, but when he came, his own mother couldn't spend the five dollars he had fought so hard for.
At this time, even if you have tears, you should hold them back, and you can't just cry outside.
Everyone in my family is confused. Just do whatever they say you should do. If you say you want to take the person back, take him back first.
But the question is which way to take it?
Lao Wu hugged Aunt Jin and refused to let go, "Mom, come home with me, mom, come home with me!"
Since Old Man Jin is not in the old house, it stands to reason that Aunt Jin should also be sent back to the old house so that the couple can reunite there.
Okay! Just send it to the old house.
After being sent to the old house, the filial son and grandson knelt there and almost cried.
But something has happened, and the problem has arisen again. Who will handle the funeral?
The fourth master buried the old lady of the Jin family by himself, the eldest and second brother buried old man Jin, and now it is Aunt Jin's turn. Who will do the funeral?
Logically speaking, it’s time for the third and fifth sons.
But isn't this third child being locked up inside?
Lao Wu can do it alone?
He certainly won't be happy.
He Xiaowan doesn't want to stand out. With such an eldest son, it's not her turn to stand out as a daughter-in-law with a child.
If we follow the pattern of how the eldest and second eldest son handled things back then, one son would handle the coffin and the other son would handle the funeral. After the gift money is paid, the one who should handle the matter will be the one.
Ma Xiaoting said, "Let's hold a funeral!"
It's not that Ma Xiaoting suddenly became generous, it's that she learned Li Xian'er's lesson. How much gift money did the second son receive for his funeral? Li Xian'er can regret her death later.
She wouldn't do such a stupid thing.
With the connections the second and fourth children have outside, the total amount of gifts is not a small amount.
Lao Wu and his wife both said that they would take care of the matter, so they would do it.
Regarding the set of coffins prepared by the third child, He Xiaowan pretended to be confused and neither said he could do it nor said he couldn't do it.
What Uncle Meng meant was: "You have done everything, Fifth Brother, and you can't suffer any loss!"
Why do you say you can’t suffer a loss?
A pair of coffin boards and shrouds actually don't cost much. For my birthday just yesterday, the new clothes prepared by the second and fourth families were enough to wear them. They can be worn too! You can't spend extra money.
This is considered a saving.
There was another item, the gold ornaments on the old man's body. When he was about to leave, the filial son took off these things, and they ended up on the son who was doing the funeral.
Those gold ornaments prepared by Lao Si, can they be used on top of a good coffin?
Not to mention one pair, ten pairs are enough.
That's why I say that since the third child is not here, you can only do half the job by yourself. You can only take advantage and not suffer any loss.
Lao Wu didn't refute, so that's considered an acknowledgment.
Good guy! But when the coffin came and the person was fully dressed and put inside, the problem came.
This coffin is not big enough.
Aunt Jin's height is not considered tall, it can only be said that she is not short.
The height of 1.68 meters is only a centimeter or two short, so it is unrealistic to fit it in evenly. The shoe is stuck somewhere, even if I change it to a shoe with a thin sole, it won't work. I just can't lie down in it.
I have never been so embarrassed.
There are rules for the size of this coffin. Who would buy a pair that is not enough? This is the same as asking an old man to wear small shoes when he arrives. She is not comfortable!
There is only one longevity food store in the town. As soon as I bought this thing, many people muttered, why did I buy this thing?
This coffin had been sitting in the shop for a long time, and it was not sold because it was not big enough. The owner's son was an apprentice who did a bad job, and the measurements were wrong, and the coffin was made short.
The price was pretty cheap, but it just didn't sell.
Why?
No matter how difficult the life is, people always think that this is the last thing to be done for the person who has gone there, and it is the last time they have to spend money. If the matter is done openly, people will feel better.
So many people know about it, but no one has ever bought it.
It turns out!
Lao Wu and Ma Xiaoting bought it back for cheap.
Even if you are not satisfied, can you still buy a second one?
How to do it?
The coffin is covered with clothes and quilts to form a slope, with the head high and the soles of the feet, and then the person lies in it, not lying flat, but leaning against it. If there is a little growth against the slope, the person is placed inside.
Carrying coffins and placing people there is simply impossible to do secretly by oneself. Helpers from a whole village are watching and saying anything.
Before, she said that her clothes were decent, and the gold ring on her hand was so big. She said that Tong was willing to give it up, because the clothes she prepared for her mother-in-law were so good. He also said that Aunt Jin was not lucky, and she had a son and daughter-in-law who were filial, but in the end, she was given away.
But once people are put inside like this, it really means everything.
There are people in the alley who like to speak fair. For example, Su Xiaoqin and her mother said to Ma Xiaoting, "Aren't you afraid that your son will pretend to be like this in the future?"
Ma Xiaoting retorted: "That's all nonsense. What else is there to be particular about when the person is gone?"
It's totally a no-brainer.
Originally this was fine, but because of Ma Xiaoting's unapologetic attitude, Aunt Jin's natal family was offended.
There are six younger brothers over there, and six uncles from the Jin family.
When you bury a woman in your family, your family members will have to watch by the coffin. If the preparations are not done well, the family members have the right to stop her. If she makes a mistake, you will not be able to bury her.
Originally, the uncle was still suppressing the younger brothers, saying forget it, it was the fifth child who took care of things. The nephew was young, ignorant, and life was difficult, so that was it, the living was coaxed to death and the others were coaxed to bury. Let's forget it.
It doesn’t matter so much anymore.
Others have to say this if they are careless. When these uncles take the initiative to say it, you, Ma Xiaoting, cannot let you say this.
It’s outrageous, you know?
This is called unethical.
The third uncle said, "Let it go. My sister lives like a coward when she is alive, and how can she be called such a coward when she is dead? This can't be done!"
This is not just for the fifth child, but also for the second child and the fourth master.
Why do you say you lived in a useless way when you were alive?
Oh! Your second child lives in such a big house, and your fourth child lives in a house here in the county that is empty. You are reluctant to let your mother live in it, so you ask your mother to live in a small room in the orchard. Now that you are dead, it is the fifth child’s turn to be buried.
You're a human being, you're going to treat your mother like this and not even buy a spacious coffin.
This is really unreasonable.
The room at the second son's house has been tidied up, and the back door has not been closed. To be honest, it is the same as living in a courtyard. As for the fourth master, Lin Yutong left the key to the house to his mother-in-law and Yingzi. Who doesn't want to call?
Living?
It’s Aunt Jin who can’t help it!
If you are babysitting another son's child, you cannot live with that other son.
Who do you think can be more stubborn than her?
Talking about the coffin, it’s not like you uncles said that it’s time for Lao Wu to take a stand in society. No matter whether this matter is done well or bad, no words are allowed. Then Ma Xiaoting has always prepared tofu noodles with water. In the past few years,
They are not so shabby anymore. Didn’t we say nothing?
Besides, it’s not impossible to change the coffin. Isn’t it unlucky?
But when something goes wrong at home and my uncle comes out to pick a fight, can I contradict him?
no!
How to do it?
The fourth master then said: "My second brother and I will provide a coffin for my third brother..."
There are actually two coffins. The coffin is placed inside the coffin. The coffin is the outermost layer. This is a set.
Later, there was no such particularity. There were only coffins, not coffins.
Now it's still possible to ask an old carpenter to buy wood and hurry up to make a coffin.
Generally, there are coffins and coffins. The coffin is one and a half inches shorter. This is normal. After all, the wooden thing has to be put into another wooden case. The inner one is smaller and the outer one is larger. Just for this reason.
Nothing went wrong during the burial.
This is the most perfect solution today.
But there are not many old carpenters who can make coffins. Now I sealed a red seal worth fifty yuan, took two coins of tobacco and wine, and a can of high-quality snacks, and then sent for the eighty-year-old old man.
.
I hired four or five carpenters and listened to the old man's instructions. The wood I bought was the treasure of the longevity wood shop, a particularly thick piece of cypress.
The wood alone cost more than two hundred.
In addition to the red seal given to the old carpenter, the wages of several carpenters, and the food and drink service, the total is about four hundred yuan.
Aunt Jin's clothes and jewelry were all prepared by Lin Yutong.
Calculating it this way, the output is quite a lot.
Only then did the people around him stop talking. The Meng family's uncle stopped talking.
After picking this place, these uncles suddenly realized that the boss's wife was not here.
You need someone to celebrate your birthday, but now that the person is gone, what does it mean that your daughter-in-law is not here?
The uncle said, "Okay! Stop barking! What are you calling me? I have many nieces and nephews, and there is no shortage of Dai Xiao."
When these words came out, Jin Mancheng didn't dare to fart. He squatted against the corner and held his head. When he raised his head and looked at the coffin, he burst into tears. Compared with several sons who didn't cry, he must be a filial son.
The uncle was too embarrassed to say anything more.
The mourners had all gone out, and relatives and friends came to pay their respects one after another. Jin Mancheng's father-in-law and his mother-in-law also came, and they seemed to take this matter very seriously. It was snowing, right?
As a result, I was embarrassed because I didn't see my daughter.
Even if the old couple is not a reasonable person, they are very embarrassed right now. It is such a big deal to pay tribute to the elders. If you can't say it, you won't come.
Those who were good with Jin Mancheng and Li Xian'er went to find Li Xian'er. After all the hard talk, they finally brought them.
In fact, Li Xian'er really didn't think about not coming. The problem is that at first she thought she was hospitalized, and no one thought it was a death. Jin Mancheng didn't send a letter to her, and others thought they were a couple. This kind of thing must be
I had to tell my wife. Who would have thought that Li Xian'er didn't come before Jin Mancheng said it. Someone called Li Xian'er and said, "Go quickly, your mother-in-law is gone."
She thought they were joking and teasing her about not giving Jin Mancheng the five yuan. So she replied: "If it's gone, it's gone! If it's gone, tell her son to go to Dai Xiao!"
Then word got out that she didn't go to pay filial piety to her mother-in-law.
Now that it was said that it was really gone, she was stunned.
No one paid any attention to her when she came over, and she leaned against the door alone, feeling very embarrassed.
Anyway, no matter how many difficulties there may be in the middle, once the coffin is placed in the coffin, it will immediately become a big deal.
Many people say that no matter how many people have gone to Ping'an Town in the past seventy or eighty years, none of them are as decent as Aunt Jin.
Qingping and Qingning stood hand in hand in front of the mourning hall, holding back tears.
One said that her grandma did not raise them in vain, and the other said that Aunt Jin had favored her two granddaughters.
To others, Aunt Jin may be bad in one way or another, but to the two granddaughters, there is nothing bad about their grandma. It really hurts to love a child, and it is really doting to pamper a child.
As they are both older, they have slowly come to understand that death is not what they thought it was, or that it means going to the sky.
Dead means no more! No more.
Qingning hugged her father at night and cried, "I don't want my grandma to die, so I just want my grandma to live..."
But who thought she was dead?
No matter how much trouble she causes, no one wants her to die.
The third child will definitely not come out this time, and no one dares to tell him. Let's just bury him for now.
After the burial, everyone said that Lao Wu had made a fortune.
How good the fourth master and Lin Yutong are in the county now, compared with before, they are not the same. Just wreaths, the two sides of the alley were lined up all day long.
Except for the banquet, everything else was extremely decent.
Lao Wu is a person who didn’t invest much, but lost a lot of money.
Someone said to Lao Wu: "You are all thanks to your second brother and the four of you!" After all, the couple never gives gifts to others. When they have trouble, there are a few people who come after them. If Lao Wu is
When doing errands, you should give a gift of ten yuan, but when you go to Laowu to do things, you only give a gift of five yuan. This is all about the other person's face. But the favor will have to be repaid by your brothers in the future.
Lao Wu nodded and said something. Of course he understood the truth.
But after this happened, the first seven papers were burned, and then Lao Wu came to the door.
why?
The fifth brother said it, and the eldest brother also said that he was given a gift of fifty yuan, but why didn’t you, second brother and fourth brother, give me the gift money?
It was the boss who instigated it again!
Lin Yutong said to him: "The boss gave you a gift of fifty yuan. Didn't our two families spend more than four hundred yuan to prepare the coffin?"
"You prepared that for Third Brother." Lao Wu said. "When Third Brother comes out, once the money is returned to you, doesn't it mean that you have paid nothing?"
Ouch! Talking to this kind of thing makes Lin Yutong so angry that his liver hurts!
Why did they say it was done for the third child? It was done by the fourth master and the second child for the sake of the third child. They also asked the third child to stand in front of people and talk when he came out. My parents died and I didn’t rush.
Yes, but I have fulfilled my filial piety. I have done my part in burying my father and burying my mother. This is part of my filial piety.
This is for the third child.
But if I really wait for the third child to come out, can I get the money?
Even if the third child gives it, I can't ask for this money! It's really embarrassing for my ancestors. The coffin prepared for my mother has to be calculated so clearly by the brothers.
Anyone who knows anything knows what is going on.
But the fifth child believed what the elder said. There was a 50-yuan gift from the second and fourth children's families missing, and he lost a hundred dollars.
People have said, "You have gained face and you have gained inner dignity, but I am the only one who has lost it!"
Conscience of heaven and earth, what have you lost?
In the end, your wife took away those gold rings and earrings. Do you really think they are all two hundred and fifty?
Lin Yutong said: "I bought that thing, and I won't say anything. Since it is said that the coffin is for the third sister-in-law, ask your wife to take out the gold jewelry and send it to the third sister-in-law. Our two families will provide you with five pieces of gold jewelry."
ten."
This man shrank his neck and became speechless.
Yingzi didn't speak until it was time for Lao Wu to go out, and she said: "Lao Wu, you have lost your conscience! If I calculated it clearly with you from beginning to end, how much do you have to replenish me?"
Lao Wu paused in his steps and his back froze. Then he lowered his head and ran away.
The second child just feels that if the mother is gone, the family is broken up. The brothers can only treat each other as relatives, and there is really nothing else.
I can’t tell what kind of sadness it is.
This Chinese New Year is so boring. In the past, the whole family still got together to have a meal, but now?
On the first day of the first lunar month, He Xiaowan and her children, the eldest brother Qingfeng and Qingshou, and the fifth couple and their children were all at the second child's side. Yingzi must be the one to entertain them.
The parents' children were there, but the couple didn't come. No one called them even though they didn't come, so it was considered a reunion dinner.
The fifth child has no sense of self-consciousness at all. He feels that I have offended my brother and sister-in-law before, so he is too embarrassed to come to the house or something. He doesn't have it at all. He probably still feels that it is the same as before, he is the youngest, and his brother and sister-in-law don't care about him.
After the seventh day of the first lunar month, Fourth Master and Lin Yutong returned to the county town with their children and the old lady. They came back early, mainly because they were moving.
Moved to the newly divided courtyard. The courtyard is small, but the house is not small, it is a two-story building.
The little old lady and Qing Ning lived on the first floor, while Lin Yutong and Qingyuan lived on the second floor. Originally, they planned to let their children live on the second floor, but it turned out that Qing Ning, perhaps because of the sudden death of her grandma, couldn't live without the little old lady.
In the past, the house was small, so she had to live with the little old lady. Now, the house is big, and the room is tidied for her, but she refuses to live by herself. She has to live with the little old lady.
Lin Yutong had to persuade her to live alone, because the little old lady's living habits for decades were not easy to change. She had to go to bed when it was dark, which was inconsistent with the child's schedule. Moreover, the sleep was light, and the child would definitely go to bed at nine o'clock.
It will wake up the little old lady.
Qingning said to Lin Yutong: "Take the old lady for a check-up, go to the hospital and ask the doctor to take a look."
Can the doctor be as good as me?
But everything the child said was right!
Then the next day, the family took the little old lady to the hospital for a check-up. After various examinations, the little old lady was in excellent health!
"What a waste of money!" This is not the style of a little old lady.
Duplicity means that you are in a good mood.
Pain for your child is really not in vain.
Qingning used to keep her hands off everything, but not anymore. After dinner, she put away the dishes and put them in the kitchen, wiped the table and swept the floor. As long as she was free, she helped with all the tasks she could do.
Qingyuan can also set up a kindergarten. Although it is a little small, it doesn't matter. There are many children of his age, and they just need a teacher to take care of them.
Government nurseries are different from nurseries outside. The parents or grandparents of the children there are people with some power in the county. The teachers will not beat or scold them, and they take good care of them. They provide three meals a day.
good.
As long as there is delicious food, this kid will go there.
When I went there on the first day, I was still moaning and groaning, which made everyone’s heart soften. But when I picked it up, it was different. I said to Lin Yutong: “The food is delicious!”
I heard from Fourth Master that the aunt who cooks for the children and the chef who cooks in the canteen are the same couple.
The food is delicious, which makes the child have a more positive attitude when he goes to school. He doesn't need to give him anything else to eat when he comes back. The teacher feeds the child well at school.
The little old lady is much less worried.
Don't worry, Lin Yutong said, go do something else. Just treat it as a pastime.
The little old lady went to some hilltop to sing some song. Within a few days, she knew where the senior activities were. She went to play cards and mahjong, and came back with some useful news from time to time.
For example, which family's daughter marries which leader's son, which family is close to which family, etc. The role played by Lin Yutong and Fourth Master in understanding the prevailing trends in the county town should not be underestimated.
She had also been in the circle of official wives in New Year's Eve in Shanghai, and knew who to play cards with, so that others would pay for it, and it didn't matter who played cards, and whose money could win, and whose money could not win, etc.
Lin Yutong felt that the little old lady was really enjoying herself.
After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, it’s time to start work.
As a result, the little old lady was not very happy when she came back that day. Why?
Lin Yutong is now particularly concerned about the physical and mental health of his little old lady, "What's going on? Who provoked you?"
"Why can't you avoid it no matter where you go?" the little old lady groaned.
Did you meet an acquaintance?!
Definitely! The county is such a big place, so the probability of meeting someone you know is very high!
Thinking of the location of his house, Lin Yutong asked in a low voice: "Did you meet Liu Cheng's breast or mother?"
Yes, Liu Cheng and Su Xiaoqin seem to live in this area. However, they bought their own land and built their house. It is not a divided house. Lin Yutong also said that he would go there with Fourth Master when he had time.
In any case, Liu Cheng's family has helped. This favor must be recorded.
The little old lady then said: "I met Liu Cheng's grandmother. Her mother hasn't followed yet."
That old lady also lived a long life.
Lin Yutong laughed at the little old lady, "She lived a good life, and your life now is even better. What's the matter? If you like it, go everywhere, if you don't like it, avoid it. There are many old men and old ladies playing with you...
"
Take it down too.
My granddaughter said so. She has been out less recently. She is renovating the yard and the land at the entrance of the yard, planting some flowers and grass, and not having to talk to boring people.
As a result, she stopped going out and someone touched the door.
Old Mrs. Liu looked around at the house, "The house I was assigned is good, it's so warm inside. It's not good over there, I need to light the stove."
It means there is no central heating.
The little old lady poured the water and handed it over: "How are we living today? We have all made money. What is there to be dissatisfied about?"
Mrs. Liu chuckled and said that these tea cups are unique and must be very expensive.
The little old lady frowned, "It's not expensive, it's all defective." Then she pointed at the less obvious flaws on the teacup and told her, "With the salary of the couple, I can't even buy something expensive."
"That's true." Old Mrs. Liu shook the gold bracelet in her hand, "To say that our Liu Cheng is filial. You see, he bought these for me. Old sister, although your family is good, but after all it is
Girl, after getting married, her heart is always partial to her husband’s family. I heard that she prepared three golden things for her mother-in-law..."
I want to tell you how much gold my family has.
Like you, gold is hanging on your hand, it's shining brightly. It's hard to say whether Liu Cheng bought it for you, but in the eyes of caring people, is Liu Cheng clean?
It’s not scary to be old, but we are afraid that we will still be confused when we are old!
This has really become a scourge for old people! It’s not finished until it harms our children and grandchildren.
You said you lack a gold bracelet? What is there to show off?
I used to know how to hide it, but now I don't know the importance of it.
The little old lady didn't tell her granddaughter about these things between the old people. As a result, she was cooking in the kitchen before get off work that day, and the door rang.
The door was opened by a panicked Su Xiaoqin.
"Girl, what's going on?" The little old lady opened the door and made room for Su Xiaoqin to come in, "Come in quickly, Tong will be back in a moment."
Su Xiaoqin was out of breath when she came back, "Nai, how long will it take for Tong to come back?"
"It's almost time." The little old lady glanced at the clock on the wall and said, "It will take about ten minutes to pick up the child."
The first one to come back was Qingning. She can go home by herself now. The school is across the road. She put down her schoolbag, washed her hands and went to serve the food. She also called Su Xiaoqin, "Aunt Xiaoqin, let's eat together."
Just as Su Xiaoqin was about to talk, the door opened and Lin Yutong came back with Qingyuan.
Qingyuan didn't know Su Xiaoqin very well, and he didn't remember seeing her before. He was stunned for a moment and asked: "Hello!" After asking, he rushed to the dining table like a cannonball. He had eaten at school, and when he came back, he saw Ai Shi.
Yes, I want to occupy a seat and eat some more, but I'm afraid there won't be one for him.
When Lin Yutong came in and saw Su Xiaoqin, he smiled: "I said I would come to see you on the weekend, but you came first."
She said that and went to the bathroom.
After coming out of it, Su Xiaoqin pulled her into the yard, as if she didn't want the children inside to hear her.
Lin Yutong was startled by her: "What's wrong?"
"Our Liu Cheng was taken for examination." Su Xiaoqin said urgently.
ah!
Lin Yutong didn't know anything about this, "What's going on?"
"It's said that there's something wrong with the bidding for the mineral water plant or something." Su Xiaoqin didn't say very clearly. "Isn't he assigned to do that kind of bidding work? It's said that the bricks and tiles and cement over there were substandard.
good……"
That's not a small problem.
Everyone knows that thing is just a piece of fat now, so naturally more people will stare at it.
The key is that Fourth Master is in charge of this matter, but I can't promise you anything now, right? After arriving in the county seat, my relationship with Liu Cheng was not that close.
She asked Su Xiaoqin: "Being responsible for the bidding, it is said that it has nothing to do with the occurrence of shoddy cement." As long as there is no problem in the bidding process, it is at most a problem of failing to pass the qualification review. If you want to hold people accountable, you can't.
For Liu Cheng, his level is not enough.
Su Xiaoqin said anxiously: "The question is, what kind of construction company is this? It has visited our door. Some people say that our Liu Cheng has received benefits from others... There is a shady secret in this bidding."
This is not true! Even if a bribe is required, at Liu Cheng's level, he is still willing to listen to others. He will not take any trouble, and it is possible that he gave some cigarettes and alcohol out of courtesy, but when it comes to other things, he is not stupid, and he can't talk to him for anything.
Throwing money away.
Lin Yutong whispered: "Honestly, what did you confiscate?"
"What should I accept?" Su Xiaoqin said with a blushing face: "He just brought back two more boxes of cigarettes as a gift, and I was frightened. He dared to accept things. At most, they were just gifts from those in the villages and towns.
Souvenirs…”
Lin Yutong understood that this was not given to Liu Cheng alone. It belonged to those who saw it.
"That's weird!" Lin Yutong also frowned, "Otherwise, let's wait until our guy comes back..."
The fourth master just heard the phrase "our family's mouth". This name is very fresh and... unique!
He opened the door and came in with a bit of joking: "That guy from your family is back."
Lin Yutong was embarrassed, turned around and saw him coming in with a smile, so he went over to pick up his briefcase, patted him gently and said, "... Xiaoqin is here."
The smile on Fourth Master's face faded a little, "Are you here about Liu Cheng?"
Su Xiaoqin nodded, "Fourth brother, what on earth is going on? I'm so scared..."
"Come in and talk." The fourth master took Lin Yutong's hand and walked in first. The little old lady took her child to eat first. The three of them went directly to the study.
After everyone sat down, Fourth Master said: "Liu Cheng's matter is a bit troublesome. If you don't come today, Tong Ming'er will definitely come to find you."
Su Xiaoqin's heart ached when she heard about the trouble, "He really didn't take any money or anything valuable..."
If I had taken it, wouldn't I have bothered?
The Fourth Master told her not to get excited, "Listen to what I have to say." He held out two fingers, "First, it was your old lady showing off her bracelet and her grandson's filial piety in front of an old leader of the Commission for Discipline Inspection. Second,
, does your child attend a large class in the nursery affiliated to the Experimental Primary School? Is your family Liu Cheng always the one who picks up and drops off the child? Does Liu Cheng know a teacher named Chen Chen..."
Um?
Lin Yutong was stunned. The bracelet thing was easy to explain, it was just the old lady's vanity.
But this is not a good thing. The problem lies in the relationship between men and women.
She turned her face to look at the Fourth Master, and then the Fourth Master nodded slightly. Lin Yutong first took Su Xiaoqin's hand, "Calm down! Calm down!"
Su Xiaoqin's mind suddenly flashed into a female teacher with a head and a chicken coop, dressed in red and green clothes, "Isn't that a primary school teacher?"
That's right! That's the elementary school teacher.
"She...what do you mean by her?" Su Xiaoqin was a little confused, "My Liu Cheng is in love with her?"
To what extent, no one except the person involved can know.
"But... that Chen Chenfei insisted that it was Liu Cheng's mother who said that you two were divorced, so she came into contact with Liu Cheng." Fourth Master said this.
divorce?!
not at all!
"Aren't we both living a good life?!" Su Xiaoqin couldn't believe her ears, "My mother-in-law keeps arguing every day that she wants to have a grandson, but Liu Cheng is not happy about it. How strict is the planning | childbirth | education now?
!Why are we talking about divorce!"
Then you probably can't explain this matter yourself, so you have to call Liu Cheng's mother and grandma to explain it clearly.
