Chapter 46 Departure Back to Qingshan Brigade
Chapter 46 Departure Back to Qingshan Brigade
Zhang Zhiqiang sent the two away and returned to the office. He saw two boxes of tea on the coffee table and couldn't help laughing. "This girl, she doesn't allow smoking or drinking, but she uses two boxes of tea to fool me."
After muttering, he still smiled as he opened a pot of tea and brewed a pot, then took a sip with great pleasure. "Mm, good tea. Hey, who said I don't have a wife or children and am destined to be lonely for the rest of my life? I have a good daughter who is worth a whole compound of ugly people like you."
While Zhang Zhiqiang was happily sipping tea, Xie Weidong, also sitting at his desk, cheerfully opened a box of Zhonghua cigarettes. He wondered, "Hey, why is the packaging open? The weight is wrong, eh?" Seeing the contents, Xie Weidong was shocked. What kind of cigarettes were these? Inside were 40 Datongjie cigarettes, two rolled into a cigarette shape. That was a whole 400 yuan.
Now, we've broken all feudal superstitions. There's no such thing as good or bad luck; this is real solidarity. He quickly picked up another pack of Zhonghua cigarettes. Hmm, this one's packaging is intact, so it should be normal. He opened the package, took out a cigarette, lit it, and sighed, "Hmm, good cigarettes."
"What a devilish girl!" Old sly versus young sly. Xie Weidong certainly knew what this meant. They asked him for something, he did it, and she paid. It was a one-time buyout. At least they didn't owe him a favor; they had given him a generous gift. Although it didn't leave them in debt as he'd expected, it wasn't bad either. At least they didn't become enemies, and he'd even met a girl from a distinguished family. Maybe they'd cross paths again in the future. Besides, they'd given him such a generous gift.
He also felt that the matter was not as simple as it seemed. The words the girl said before she left must have a deeper meaning. He secretly decided that the matter must be kept secret.
After leaving the police station, Ye Jinhua and Zhao Hongying headed to the state-owned restaurant. Winter gets dark early, and with nightfall approaching, they needed to hurry if they were going to return home today. Ye Jinhua ordered a plate of pork dumplings, a bowl of noodles, and an egg sauce dish to go with the noodles. There was fish from the winter catch today, so Ye Jinhua also ordered a Modli fish stew. He also secretly bought a few yaks from Sister Wang and brought them home for her mother to stew.
Zhao Guiying wanted to pay the bill, but Ye Jinhua stopped her, saying that this meal was to celebrate Zhao Guiying's new life. Zhao Guiying wanted to return the 20 yuan and food coupons Ye Jinhua gave her yesterday, but Ye Jinhua refused and had to use the money to pay for the meal.
She also saw that Zhao Hongying was not willing to take advantage of others. Ye Jinhua thought this was good and clear-headed. If she relied on others for everything, she would really look down on her. She would also help her escape, because after all, she had her reasons for falling into this situation, but she would not help her so thoroughly.
There weren't many people eating at the moment, so the food was ready in no time. Ye Jinhua and Zhao Hongying, one of whom hadn't eaten properly in days, had managed to hold on thanks to her perseverance, while the other, a martial artist with a large appetite, had quickly devoured the entire bowl. Each of them even had a bowl of dumpling soup, which helped them digest the original food, leaving them feeling warm and comfortable.
The two of them eat so much that they often attract other people's attention. It's not hard to guess what they are thinking. They must be looking at how much they eat, and wondering what kind of family they are that can support two people like this?
The two of them didn't care about what others thought. They said hello to Sister Wang and walked out of the state-owned hotel.
Ye Jinhua asked Zhao Hongying: "Sister Hongying, should we find a place to rest for a night and return to the team tomorrow, or should we go directly back? If we go directly back, it will take about 3 hours to walk. Can you still hold on?" The 3 hours was calculated based on Zhao Hongying's pace. She could usually ski much faster alone, but with Zhao Hongying, she could only walk.
"I can do it, let's go." She didn't want to stay in the county town any longer, for fear of running into people from the G Committee. Although she had put on makeup, she still felt uneasy.
Ye Jinhua estimated the time and it was almost nine o'clock when she got home. That was fine. She had said goodbye to her family before going out today, so she didn't worry about them worrying. She had nothing to be afraid of walking at night. If she was so lucky and ran into a robber, who knew who would rob whom.
The two reached a consensus and set out together to return to Qingshan Brigade.
At the same time, Wang Chunsheng, who had been busy all day, could finally take a break. There was nothing left in the office, so he had to go home.
When Wang Chunsheng got home and saw the iron gate on the front door, he wondered why Liang Aifang was not home at this time. He had a bad feeling and quickly opened the door to go in. Everything in the yard and the main room was as usual. When he entered the room, he found that the kang was empty and the bedding was gone.
There was a piece of paper on the desk by the window. Wang Chunsheng quickly picked it up and read it. It read: "I'm dying. Don't dirty your place. I'm going to die outside. You've taken so much money from my family. It's not too much for me to take a few beddings with you. Please don't look for me. Leave me some peace and quiet before I die."
Miraculously, Wang Chunsheng had no reaction after seeing this. He had already prepared himself for Liang Aifang's death. After all, he already knew about her body.
He didn't know what his feelings were for Liang Aifang. He had trapped and tortured her for so many years. At first, he just wanted her to surrender and accept her fate.
But she never did, she had tormented them one child after another, he knew she thought he was dirty, his body was dirty, his blood was dirty. She didn't want to give birth to a child with a dirty soul.
But what was his fault? He was originally a poor village boy with nothing, lowly and humble. But suddenly one day, he had the opportunity to gain power, even to dominate the life and death of those who were previously out of his reach.
He felt that he was the son of destiny and that he could easily get whatever he wanted. So what was wrong with him wanting that high and mighty, arrogant, beautiful and noble woman?
But why was this woman so stubborn? Why couldn't she just accept her fate? He'd even beaten his first wife to death for her, so what else did she want?
In fact, he knew in his heart that she didn't want anything. In the following years, she seemed to accept her fate and lived with him, but in fact, she didn't accept her fate. She had died long ago, died on the afternoon when he and his men broke into her house.
Let’s go, let’s go, Wang Chunsheng felt that it was enough, it was enough that she had been trapped for so many years, if she wanted to die outside, then she could die outside.
Wang Chunsheng rubbed his face vigorously, wiping away the tears that were welling up in his eyes. Had he ever loved? He asked himself, having loved someone so beautiful, lively, intelligent, and strong, how could he not love her? It was just that he had lost himself when he suddenly held the power of life and death over so many people. Or perhaps this was just who he was.
