He had no interest in Yang Dingxiang to begin with.
Although she is a very beautiful beauty from the Western Region, this girl is not his type.
Even though I have gained some weight now, my flesh is not growing in the right place.
Du Fei smiled and said, "Dingxiang, everyone is counting on you today."
Yang Dingxiang said "Yeah", feeling a little unnatural when facing Du Fei, as if there was something hidden in her eyes.
Zhu Ting interjected, "Are Chu Ming and the others here?"
Du Fei said, "Chu Cheng and his wife have just arrived and are inside. Brother Daming has to wait for a while." After that, he said to Zhu Min, "Sister, you go find a place to rest inside. You don't need to help me with anything. I've prepared everything."
Already."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Mingfei pushed the car in from the outside.
Dragging a dirty leather bag on the back rack of the bicycle.
Du Fei immediately stepped forward to greet him, "Brother-in-law, you are so fast! I wonder why I can't wait for you to stop."
Li Mingfei said, "Hey, it took so long. They delivered it in the morning. I just rode my bike to pick it up."
Du Fei asked, "All cut?"
Li Mingfei nodded, "We'll just get the signature and wear it ourselves later."
Then everyone came to the middle courtyard one after another.
Several women, all with their children, immediately got together and started chatting.
Yang Dingxiang was originally there, but after hearing what they were talking about was how to give birth and take care of children, she couldn't help but feel a little shy, so she quickly went aside to light a fire and burn charcoal.
Li Mingfei took off the leather bag from the car. Inside was a large oil paper bag.
It was full of mutton cut into small pieces.
The mutton was very dry and had no blood.
Li Mingfei smiled and said, "The new ones I killed this morning are absolutely fresh."
Chu Cheng stretched his neck and looked at it.
Du Fei asked, "Brother-in-law, why are the three pieces of sheep gone?"
When Li Mingfei heard this, he winked and took out another oil paper bag from his black leather bag, "I want two sets today."
Chu Cheng was a little confused and asked, "What three things?"
It cannot be said that he is ignorant. The main reason is that in this era of limited information, he really does not know some niche knowledge.
On the other hand, Yang Dingxiang, who was burning charcoal next to her, couldn't help but burst into laughter.
During the last barbecue, Yu Xinxin asked this stupidly, and she heard it from the side.
But when she saw Chu Cheng looking towards her, his cheeks turned red again and he quickly lowered his head.
At this time, there was another movement outside.
Du Fei guessed that Chu Ming and Xiao Huifang were coming, so he immediately went out to greet them.
Sure enough, the two people walked in from the gate. Chu Ming was holding a net bag in his hand, which contained four bottles of Maotai liquor.
"Brother Daming, sister-in-law Huifang~" Du Fei called out.
I haven't seen them in almost a year.
It is not easy to be a local cadre, especially for someone like Chu Ming who wants to be famous. He has to work hard day and night. He is only in his thirties and looks older than his actual age.
As for Xiao Huifang, I don't know if she is more adapted to the southern climate, or if her temperament has changed after getting married. She seems to be less cold and more feminine than before.
Of course, this is only compared with herself.
Overall, when the two of them stood in front of each other, they looked more like comrades-in-arms than a couple.
Chu Ming exchanged warm greetings, and Xiao Huifang also smiled.
The three of them came to the middle courtyard.
Xiao Huifang saw Zhu Ting, all with children, and her eyes were strange for a moment.
Normally she and Chu Ming were married first, but now Zhou Xiaoli has given birth and there is no news from her here.
But it only recovered in an instant.
Xiao Huifang and Zhu Min and Zhu Ting are both acquaintances, and they are sisters-in-law with Zhou Xiaoli, but they haven't seen each other for a long time.
Play with the child and it will quickly warm him up.
On the other side, several men began to put on mutton skewers.
Du Fei went to cut a big watermelon.
It was around ten o'clock at this time, and the thermometer hanging on the verandah pillar showed that it had exceeded 35 degrees.
In addition, it rained last night, the water vapor evaporated, and the humidity was high. It was a typical sauna day.
Just in time to eat some watermelon to relieve the heat.
After cutting it, Du Fei took a piece to Yang Dingxiang.
This girl is cooking charcoal alone, and after a while she has to be pointed at her to grill mutton skewers. She must not be left out in the cold.
"Thank you, brother-in-law." Yang Dingxiang was stunned for a moment, feeling a little flattered.
Du Fei smiled and said, "Eat some watermelon, rest for a while, and help Xiaoting look after the child." r> It’s not that he ordered her to take care of the child, he just used this as an excuse to avoid being lonely.
Yang Dingxiang said "Hey" and stretched out her little black hand stained with charcoal dust...
On the other side, brothers Chu Ming and Chu Cheng haven’t seen each other for a long time.
Chu Ming came back this time not to visit relatives, but because he had other official duties.
I arrived at the station yesterday afternoon. I had to go out to do some errands first, and then talked to Chu Hongjun in the middle of the night. I didn't have much time to talk to Chu Cheng at all.
Du Fei presented a circle of watermelons and finally returned to the Eight Immortals Table.
Three people threaded the skewers together, because the mutton was not cut into small pieces and it was not too strenuous to thread the skewers.
More than twenty kilograms of mutton, one-fifth of which was worn out in the blink of an eye.
Putting down the enamel basin with the watermelon, Du Fei also joined the team of wearing skewers and interjected, "Brother Daming, if you go back this time, it's time for you to do something, right?"
Chu Ming didn't shy away. He nodded with a smile, "The old director is retiring, I should be able to take over."
When Chu Ming went to Dongguan before, he was the second-in-command even though he was at the division level. It seems that he will take up his position this time.
But this is not an accident. When Chu Ming went here before, he saw that the old director was approaching and stood over to pick peaches.
This is not a bargain, because the Chu family has already paid a corresponding price for this.
A few people had no purpose and were just chatting.
After the mutton skewers are threaded and the charcoal over there is burned through, put them in the stove and put the meat skewers on them.
After a while, there was a "pricking, pricking" sound, and the aroma of barbecue filled the air.
There are two Eight Immortals tables, one for women and one for men.
When eating mutton skewers in summer, you must drink beer, especially cold beer.
Let Yang Dingxiang bake for that table first, while Du Fei and the others opened beer and drank it with peanuts and cold vegetables.
After drinking a few glasses of refreshing beer, several people became more relaxed.
On the women's side, it's just a bit of a taste.
Except for Xiao Huifang, the other three have to nurse their children.
Although the mutton kebabs are delicious, I am afraid that if I eat too much, the milk will smell like mutton.
While eating and drinking, the man unknowingly drank two bottles of beer by himself.
Du Fei glanced at Yang Dingxiang, who was sweating profusely when the skewers were grilled, stood up and walked over and said, "Dingxiang, take a rest for a while, I'll do it~"
After all, Du Fei was the one planning the deal this time, so we couldn't keep the little girl busy all the time.
Yang Dingxiang smiled and said, "Brother-in-law, it's okay, I just ate several skewers."
Du Fei said, "Obey me and go have a rest. I didn't sit down when I came."
Seeing Du Fei's persistence, Yang Dingxiang didn't insist on his own opinion.
He responded and went to the woman's table.
Du Fei took over the barbecue job and moved very quickly.
After a while, another large batch was baked, and as soon as it was distributed on the two tables, Li Mingfei got up and had to go to the toilet.
Among the group of people, Li Mingfei was the oldest. He had just eaten a large piece of watermelon and had two bottles of beer. He couldn't hold it anymore.
It happened that Chu Cheng also wanted to go, so he stood up and said, "Brother Li, let's go together~"
Du Fei didn't feel anything, and Chu Ming didn't move either.
Du Fei chuckled, "Brother Daming, go to hell with them, let's go one by one."
Chu Ming didn't refuse anyone who came, and he finished it in one gulp, so he had some time to say, "By the way, I'll be here in a few days."
When I come back tomorrow, I may need some help from you..."
Du Fei was stunned for a moment and thought of Wang Dongming.
He still remembered that this man was cousin to Chu Ming and Chu Cheng.
Although there was some difficulty with Du Fei at the beginning, he was stepped on by Du Fei just in terms of words.
I saw him again later.
At that time, Wang Dongming had already married a wife, but his relationship with Du Fei had eased a lot.
Chu Ming specifically mentioned it today, and it was definitely not just a casual comment.
This is specifically asking for a favor from Du Fei, and I want him to do his best to help me.
Du Fei didn't object at all and asked, "What's the matter?"
Chu Ming shook his head, "I really don't know about this. We haven't seen each other recently. From what he said, it seems that it involves secrets. I don't mean anything else. Dongming is actually a good person. We are not outsiders. If we can help,
Help, help."
Du Fei understood that Chu Ming's "no one is an outsider" was not a polite statement.
Nowadays, the alliance between Zhu, Xiao and Chu families is getting closer and closer.
Du Fei is the son-in-law of the Zhu family.
Wang Dongming is the nephew of the Chu family, and he is indeed on the same boat.
"Brother Daming, look at what you said, what does this mean?" Du Fei picked up a mutton skewer and said, "When he comes back, let him come to me directly."
Chu Ming smiled, but he heard that there was room in Du Fei's words.
He only asked Wang Dongming to find him, but he didn't say that he would definitely help.
However, Chu Ming stopped talking and said nothing more.
Although he has a closer relationship with Wang Dongming, Du Fei's status has long since changed. .??.
Even though Chu Mingyuan was far in the south, he knew the huge value of the "firefighting equipment company" in Du Fei's hands.
Wang Dongming is considered a young talent among his peers and has developed very well in the army.
But compared with Du Fei, he is not on the same level.
This is why Wang Dongming did not go to Du Fei directly, but first went through Chu Mingtong.
If Du Fei explicitly refuses, just give up immediately to avoid humiliating himself.
As Du Fei said this, he was also a little curious in his heart, what could Wang Dongming do to him?
After a while, Li Mingfei and Chu Cheng came back, and the four of them had another meal.
After drinking till we had a lot of fun, we started chatting all over the place.
They didn't leave until almost one o'clock.
There is no special purpose for today's meal. It is just for everyone to connect and bond.
After a meal of wine, everyone was very happy.
If the children hadn’t had to sleep, I probably wouldn’t have finished yet~
After the show, Chu Ming and Xiao Huifang, as a couple, had nothing to do and rode their bicycles away.
Although Chu Ming drank, it was only a few bottles of beer and with Xiao Huifang watching, it was not a big problem.
But Li Mingfei and Chu Chengcheng were in trouble.
They also came on bicycles, but Du Fei was worried about letting two drunk men carry his wife with a child.
Simply ask Zhu Ting to call and call for another car from the minibus in the government compound.
The one that came in the morning would go back after seeing people off.
We don’t know when it will end here, so we can’t keep people waiting.
After waiting for a while, the car came over, and Zhu Min and Zhou Xiaoli got on the car with their children in their arms.
Zhu Ting didn't leave. Xiao Zhengze had just finished feeding and had fallen asleep in Du Fei's lounge.
There were a lot of things left unpacked in the yard. How could Zhu Ting leave it to Du Fei to clean up alone?
Du Fei asked Yang Dingxiang to get in the car, but the girl refused and insisted on staying to help.
After giving in twice, Yang Dingxiang insisted on refusing. Du Fei saw that she seemed to have other things to do, so he didn't insist.
After everyone left, Xiao Zhengze fell asleep and put it in the room.
Du Fei and the other three were left to simply tidy up the yard.
When it was over, Zhu Ting took the initiative to pick up Yang Dingxiang and asked her if there was anything wrong?
Zhu Ting also noticed something was wrong with Yang Dingxiang just now.
Du Fei came over and stood aside to listen.
Yang Dingxiang first looked at Zhu Ting, then at Du Fei, and finally said, "It's Ding Sixian. She came to me and wanted my help..."
Du Fei was stunned for a moment, but Zhu Ting didn't recognize Ding Sitian and looked at him doubtfully.
Du Fei explained, "Ding Sitian is a young man who jumped in line with Dingxiang in Inner Mongolia." After that, he looked at Yang Dingxiang, "Did she write to you?"
Yang Dingxiang shook her head, "No, she came to the capital."
Du Fei was a little surprised.
Although he met Ding Sitian last time in Inner Mongolia, Du Fei didn't take it too seriously.
After all, he is just an irrelevant person.
Moreover, the Baiyan Cave has been sealed, and Ding Sitian will no longer be able to enter, let alone be entangled by the yellow leather.
Ordinarily, like Hu and Wang Kaixuan, he should have changed the trajectory of his destiny.
Unexpectedly, this name actually appeared again after a year.
Zhu Ting also asked, "What help does she ask you for?"
Yang Dingxiang considered it, lowered her head and said, "She said she wanted to save her parents." She glanced at Du Fei as she said, "Last time in Inner Mongolia, she saw her brother-in-law picking me up, and she guessed that my family might have a big background..."
Du Fei understood it as soon as he heard it.
When he led Cixin into the depths of the grassland to find Yang Dingxiang, he drove a jeep, and at first glance he was not an ordinary person.
It's not surprising that Ding Sitian can see this.
But why does this girl think that Yang Dingxiang will help her?
Just because they met by chance, or just because they were desperate, they treated a dead horse like a living horse.
Yang Dingxiang continued, "Ting Sister, brother-in-law, I know her family’s affairs are not simple, and I didn’t want to trouble you. But...but..."
Speaking of this, a look of fear appeared on Yang Dingxiang's face.
Du Fei frowned, "But what?"
Yang Dingxiang frowned and said, "I...I don't know what's going on. Ever since I met her, I have dreamed of her almost every night and seen her begging me to save her parents."
Du Fei's heart trembled.
It's not normal to have the same dream every night.
Thinking about it, it's not difficult to guess that it should be Ding Sixian's method.
But it stands to reason that Ding Sixian is an ordinary young man and comes from a family of intellectuals. How could he have such a method?
Could it be...
Du Fei frowned and thought to himself, could it be that his intervention caused some kind of butterfly effect?
Yang Dingxiang stretched out her hand to hold Zhu Ting and continued, "Sister Ting, this dream has been going on for several days and the dream is getting clearer and clearer. I...I really don't know what to do!"
"It's okay, it's okay~" Zhu Ting hugged her back to comfort her.
Du Fei also suddenly realized, no wonder Yang Dingxiang has been a little distracted since early this morning.
Zhu Ting looked at Du Fei, winked and asked him what to do?
Du Fei thought for a moment and said, "Ding Xiang, don't worry, it's okay~ We have your sister Ting and me. Ding Sitian is asking for your help. You go find her now and bring her here."
Yang Dingxiang nodded subconsciously, but then she thought of something, and shook her head hurriedly, "No, no, when I see her this time, I always feel that she is a bit... a bit evil. Sister Ting and Ozawa are still there..."
Du Fei nodded secretly. At this time, he could think of Zhu Ting's mother and son, but it was not in vain that Zhu Ting protected her again and again.
In fact, Du Fei had already thought of it, "It's okay. I'll send them back now. You don't have to worry about anything else. Bring Ding Sitian here and don't think too much. She's the one asking for help now."
Yang Dingxiang nodded, "Okay, I understand~"
Seeing Yang Dingxiang riding away, Zhu Ting couldn't help but frown and said, "Xiao Fei, do you need to notify the An Tsuen Bureau?"
Zhu Ting also guessed that this Ding Sitian was weird.
When I arrived at her home, I knew some things that ordinary people didn't know.
Zhu Ting knew that the An-Tsuen Bureau had a special department dedicated to handling similar incidents.
Du Fei waved his hand and said, "No, don't cause trouble to our father, I will handle this matter."
Zhu Ting nodded and warned, "Then be careful and don't show off. After all, there are some things... that cannot be explained by science."
Because of Chen Fangshi's existence, Zhu Ting has no objection to this kind of thing.
Du Fei said, "Don't worry, if anything happens, I'll call Director Luo immediately."
Knowing that Director Luo was the person from the Anquan Bureau who specifically dealt with Du Fei, Zhu Ting nodded and went into the house to take the child out.
Du Fei rode a motorcycle and took the two girls back to the government compound.
Returning to the unit again, more than an hour passed.
Yang Dingxiang and Ding Sitian have already arrived here in advance.
Du Fei came in from the outside and saw the two of them sitting side by side on the bench under the persimmon tree.
Seeing him come in, the two of them immediately stood up.
Last time on the grassland, Du Fei and Ding Sitian had a chance encounter.
But at that time, Ding Sitian was like Yang Dingxiang, exposed to the wind and sun on the grassland. Although it could be seen that she was a beauty, it was difficult for people to feel that they were shining.
This time I saw her, she had changed a lot.
She must have been away from the grassland for a while, and the skin on her face has returned to some whiteness.
Her hair was also kept clean and smooth. Her long hair was not braided and was tied into a bun on top of her head. A simple wooden hairpin was inserted diagonally. She was wearing a plain skirt that did not match her temperament.
Ding Sitian is not very old, just seventeen years old.
I didn't have this feeling on the grassland back then.
At this moment, looking into her eyes, one can see a somewhat mature and graceful temperament.
"Brother Du Fei~" Yang Dingxiang called.
Ding Sitian was generous and decent, and said with a smile, "Hello, Comrade Du, I am Ding Sitian, do you remember?"
Du Fei looked her up and down, and suddenly his nose faintly smelled a familiar smell.
This made his heart skip a beat, and he smiled meaningfully and said, "Comrade Xiao Ding, of course I remember that your leg was broken last time in Baiyan Cave, and it's all healed?"
Ding Sitian was slightly surprised. She didn't expect Du Fei to remember her, which was really a bit surprising.
Little did he know that Du Fei had already seen through her secret.
