104 Hometown

Before I could open the door, Zhu Dan had already rushed over and opened the door suddenly.

I walked over too.

But we were both disappointed.

Outside is not the person we want to see.

It's three people.

There were two people who looked like a couple, about forty years old.

There was also a man, in his early thirties, dressed in a black overalls with a folder tucked on.

See us open the door.

The man in the overalls said to the couple, "Mr. Li, Mrs. Li, let's come in and have a look." ”

Then he walked in with his husband and wife.

"This house is still good, the north and south are transparent, and the space utilization rate is very large. ”

"The ceiling height is also very good. ”

"The various facilities outside are also good. ”

This man is introducing.

The couple looked around at the room.

The man saw the small corridor where I lived, walked over, opened the curtain, and frowned a little: "This corridor is a little ridiculously designed." When the storage room is too small, when it is a small room, it may not be soundproofed. ”

The woman looked at the furnishings in the room: "I am not satisfied with many furnishings, and I will have to change them in the future." ”

......

These people are judging as if no one is around.

The reason why Zhu Dan and I didn't stop or make a sound at first was because we were both confused.

What's going on here?

What are these three people here for?

Real estate agents take clients to see properties?

You're in the wrong place!

Finally, I spoke first.

I stopped the woman who was still trying to go into the bedroom to look: "Excuse me, may I ask how many of you are?"

The woman looked at me, "We're here to see the house, aren't you going to sell the house?"

I shook my head: "I think you're mistaken, we never said we were going to sell the house, please go out." ”

The woman looked at the man in overalls with a dissatisfied expression: "Manager Zhang, what's going on?"

The man in overalls came over, looked at me and said, "Hello Miss, I am Manager Zhang of Venture Real Estate, I just looked at the house number, the east household on the 9th floor of Building 7, yes? You entrusted the house to us for sale, all the formalities are complete, and you also said, you can see the house at any time, I took the customer to the site to see, but you can't go back on your word like this, right?"

"Who entrusted you?" said Zhu Dan.

"It's Mr. Kwan. The manager opened the folder in his hand and glanced at the information.

Everything is understood.

Everything is clear.

Guan Zhen.

Fake divorce.

Sign the agreement.

coaxed Zhu Dan to leave the house.

Resign.

Play missing.

Now I've sold the house I just got my hands on.

This step by step.

Every step of the way.

Every step is terrifying.

It's so cleverly designed.

Or rather, it's so insidious.

What about later?

Take the money and fly away, don't you get along with Zhu Dan when he dies?

"I'm sorry, it's inconvenient for us today, you can talk about it another day. ”

I saw that Zhu Dan's face was gloomy, so I asked the three of them to leave quickly.

"Hey, we haven't talked about the price yet, Mr. Li and Mrs. Li are very sincere. ”

"What's the attitude? Isn't this playing with us?"

"Humph!"

Both the agent and the couple left reluctantly or resentfully.

The door closed.

The room was quiet again.

The pin drop can be heard.

I don't know how long it took.

Zhu Dan finally opened his mouth.

"Huanxi, why do you say it? Why did he do this? Was it for money? If he wanted money, he could have told me! When did the money in the family treat him badly? Did he insist on paying all his wages every month?"

"Is he unhappy with me? Then why didn't he tell me? Why did he give me such a surprise attack?"

"Or is there something going on that I don't know? Why didn't he tell me anything? Why was he still acting with me before he was going to leave?

"Do you say that he has done so much just to divorce me?

"In his heart, what is I, Zhu Dan? As for being so disgusted and disgusted by him? In order to leave me, he doesn't even want to work?

I can't answer this question.

Because I really don't know.

Even Zhu Dan, the pillow person, didn't know Guan Zhen's thoughts, and now ask me, isn't it difficult for a strong man?

So I was silent.

"Huanxi, didn't you remind me before? I was still angry with you at the time, I'm sorry. ”

Zhu Dan said softly.

This is a proud woman, and this is the first time I have heard the words "I'm sorry" from her mouth.

Before I was a nanny, Zhu Dan was the employer.

She's on top.

She has a lot of rules that she can't overcome.

She also put me to the test with money.

Seeing her like this now, I should have a feeling of thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, right?

Or even the thrill of revenge.

"Sample, you also have today!"

"I knew it was so. Why bother in the first place. ”

"You didn't listen to me at the beginning, and now you're slapped in the face, right?

"That's the price of your pride!"

"Now that you think about it, ask me, what did you do earlier?"

"Make your dreams come true!"

And so on.

No.

Not really.

I didn't feel happy at all in my heart.

Some are just endless sighs and sorrows.

I don't want to see Zhu Dan so fragile and decadent.

The previous Zhu Dan, although he was full of superiority, although he was arrogant and domineering, although he was picky and vicious, he treated complaints as a common thing, and many times, it was really annoying.

But she is proud, confident, she has no scruples, she is indomitable.

She lives a chic, free, and unrestrained life.

In fact, deep down in my heart, I really feel that this is what a woman should be.

Who says a woman has to be gentle, virtuous, and empathetic?

Who said that women must swallow their anger and be submissive?

Who says women have to revolve around men?

Women can also be wanton, arrogant, and arbitrary.

As long as there is a trace of kindness in your heart.

If she doesn't bully innocent people for no reason, then she's a good woman.

So the former Zhu Dan is actually my idol.

She also wants to live like Zhu Dan laughing, scolding, and happy revenge.

Instead of trembling and walking on thin ice like myself, I am always worried about being harassed and entangled by people and things in the past.

But now the idol has collapsed.

Zhu Dan is very painful, why am I not the same depressed?

......

"Sister Dan, don't say sorry to me...... At first, I ...... I just think that such a thing as a fake divorce is too unreliable, so I remind you...... I don't know...... I don't know how to close ...... What does Guan Zhen think......"

After listening to me, Zhu Dan blindfolded his eyes with his hands.

I could clearly see that there were water marks slipping between her fingers.

She cried.

It's just that she still has to maintain the last pride.

I don't want to be seen, she's fragile and ruined.

......

Since then, within a week, Guan Zhen has evaporated from the world.

No one knows where he went.

And the intermediary manager Zhang, like a ghost, brought people to see the house several times.

Eventually, I couldn't take it anymore and warned the agent not to harass him again.

Otherwise, I'll splash the door of your agency with red paint!

Write on it "Unscrupulous intermediaries, shameless disturbances!"

The manager was finally scared away by my pungency.

But I clearly heard him complaining while entering the elevator: "What two psychopaths, both are crazy! No wonder they were deceived by men!

It turns out that even an intermediary who has never known each other has understood the stakes involved.

Oh, yes.

House.

In such a big city, for the sake of the house, how much deceit and intrigue.

As intermediaries, they have seen many conspiracies and tricks.

Such a scene would never have been imagined in our small village, which is full of low, dilapidated bungalows.

In my original impression, the house was just a shelter from the wind and rain.

And in this realistic and cold city, the house is the goal of many people's life.

For the sake of the house, there are joys and sorrows, tossing and turning.

I don't know if it's wrong or right.

......

On the 8th day of Guan Zhen's disappearance.

After contacting almost all the people who had a relationship with Guan Zhen, but still couldn't get news of Guan Zhen, Zhu Dan decided to go on a long trip.

I want to go to Guan Zhen's hometown and find Guan Zhen's parents.

I hope that through Guan Zhen's parents, Guan Zhen himself can be found.

It's not that you can't get a divorce.

It's not me, Zhu Dan, I have to rely on you for the rest of my life.

Just, I want an answer!

I'll tell you Guan Zhen in front of me why all this happened in the past!

I'm in your heart, what's the point!

Of course, I have to accompany Zhu Dan to go.

Because of all her things.

Her happiness, her pain, her vulnerability, I am a direct witness.

So now, I have become Zhu Dan's most trusted person.

There are many things that she can't even tell her friends and parents, but she can confide in me.

......

Guan Zhen's hometown is in Y City.

It is more than 200 kilometers away from the provincial capital.

We went by car, set off in the morning, and when we got there, it was already past eleven o'clock in the afternoon.

I know a little bit about the background of Guan Zhen's family.

His parents turned out to be ordinary workers.

A few years ago, because the benefits were not good, Guan Zhen's parents left their jobs and could only live by doing some odd jobs.

It's very tight.

Guan Zhen grew up in such a family, and finally was able to be admitted to university, and he was excellent in character and learning, but it was really not easy.

And now, because of Guan Zhen's success, his parents have also moved out of the old worker community and moved into a newly developed real estate in the county.

Naturally, Guan Zhen is in the local area, which is already a typical example of getting ahead.

"Clank!"

"Clank!"

Zhu Dan rang the doorbell outside.

I stood behind Zhu Dan, worried about whether there was anyone inside.

If Guan Zhen really did such a desperate job and picked up his parents together, wouldn't we have run in vain?

Fortunately.

After waiting for half a minute, the door opened, and a woman in her early fifties appeared in the doorway.

"Mom......" Zhu Dan shouted, his tone a little sour.

I know that this must be Guan Zhen's mother.

"You're here. ”

Guan Mu glanced at Zhu Dan, there was no too obvious expression on her face, opened the door, and let Zhu Dan and I walk in.

In this home, although there is not much furniture, it looks very clean and tidy.

On the couch sat an old man, smoking a cigarette.

"Dad......" Zhu Dan said hello again.

Father Guan didn't say anything, just nodded.

Zhu Dan sat on the sofa, her eyes glancing in the direction of the bedroom from time to time.

I knew she was wondering if Guan Zhen was there.

But it was quiet inside, and there was not a sound at all.

I don't know if it's really no one, or if someone is hiding too deeply.

......

"Mom, I'm here this time to ......"

Zhu Dan was pondering the sentence, wanting to say what he meant.

But she heard Guan Mu interrupt her: "Miss Zhu......"

This "Miss Zhu" was born out of thin air, and it was extremely decisive to cut off the distance, family affection and relationship between each other.

I don't know what Guan Mu called Zhu Dan before, but it's definitely not "Miss Zhu", right?

Sure enough, this title made Zhu Dan's words come to an abrupt end.

I don't know how to continue.

"Miss Zhu, don't call me mom in the future, don't dare to be, aren't you divorced from Guan Zhen? Guan Mu said very blandly.

It's like talking about a trivial thing that doesn't matter.

The most ruthless thing in the world is never beating and scolding, but indifference and alienation.

It turned out that she already knew about Zhu Dan and Guan Zhen's divorce.

It seems that everyone knows about the divorce, and Zhu Dan is the last one to know.

Isn't this ironic irony, you say?

......

Guan Mu's direct question made Zhu Dan unable to answer for a while.

There was silence for a few minutes, as if the air in the room was about to freeze.

Only then did Zhu Dan speak: "Mom...... Auntie, he ...... Where is he now?"

Guan Mu replied calmly: "I don't know, I haven't seen him for a long time...... My son is miserable, working hard outside, not mentioning how much hardship he suffers and how tired he endures, and he always looks at other people's faces, is angry with others, and lives cautiously, and he doesn't even know how cold and hot he is. ”

As she spoke, Guan Mu's eyes turned red.

Apparently fighting for his son.

The meaning in and out of the words is to say that it was Zhu Dan who bullied Guan Zhen.

Zhu Dan's face flushed: "That...... He...... He told you...... For...... Why do you want to get divorced?"

"Zhu Dan! Miss Zhu, you still have the face to ask me? Why don't you understand the divorce? My son is usually so good to you and spoils you so much! He is more filial to you than he is to my mother! I am really afraid that I will lose it in my hand, and I am afraid that I will melt in my mouth, and I can't do it better! And I don't know, what are you still not satisfied with? Why are you still picking and choosing on my son? Picking at your nose and picking your eyes, and finally forcing my son to divorce! Phew! You mean woman! My son is so good, and the destruction will be in your hands! You woman is really harmful! Zhu Dan, think about it yourself!"

Guan Mu's mood is no longer calm.

She was furious like a tigress.

The saliva splashing all over the sky sprayed on Zhu Dan's face.

I know that Zhu Dan is usually a woman who loves cleanliness, but at this time, she didn't move, and she didn't even wipe it.

I can't stand it anymore.

"Auntie, don't talk too much! Now it's that Guan Zhen who used deception to coax Sister Dan to divorce and take away all the property, we just want to ask someone who understands!"

"Who are you, and what does this have to do with you?" asked Guan Mu.

"You don't care who I am, I have to be reasonable!" I didn't show weakness.

"Hehe, this is a demonstration to settle accounts? What? Isn't it okay to give all the property to my son after the divorce? My son has been a cow and a horse, and has served you for so many years, and you give all the property to my son, that is right! Anyway, your family is so rich, and you are not bad at this!" Guan Mu said unashamedly.

"Alright, don't talk nonsense with such inconsequential people, send off!"

Father Guan, who had not spoken, finally spoke.

The former daughter-in-law has now become an inconsequential person.

And I know that in fact, the new house they live in was proposed by Zhu Dan to buy.

It turns out that it's not just women who turn their faces faster than books.

Zhu Dan and I left a little embarrassed.

......

In fact, Zhu Dan was very sharp and eloquent before.

But today at her former in-laws' house, she seems to be silent, and the few words she occasionally says are also fragmented.

"Bang dang!"

The security door was slammed shut.

Stir up a splash of dust on the ground.

Zhu Dan and I went downstairs.

It was already lunch time, and the smell of food wafted through the corridor.

And Guan Zhen's parents, of course, won't leave us for a meal.

got into Zhu Dan's car.

"Huanxi, are you hungry?" Zhu Dan asked me.

"I'm not hungry. I lied.

Actually, I'm hungry.

But I think Zhu Dan is definitely not in the mood to eat now.

"Then I'm hungry, let's go, let's go eat, eat good, eat a big meal!" Zhu Dan said pretending to be heroic.

Then he drove me to a restaurant that looked the most upscale in the county.

She began to order.

There were only two of us, but we ordered a meal that maybe ten of us wouldn't be able to eat.

I didn't stop her.

I knew she needed an outlet right now.

The dishes are all up.

She asked for a drink.

Then I didn't see Zhu Dan take a bite of food, but I saw her pouring wine one bite at a time, cup by cup.

Then, as expected, finally drank too much.

The meal cost more than 3,000 yuan, and I paid for it.

I didn't have the slightest reluctance.

It's just because of Zhu Dan's trust in me.

I helped the crooked Zhu Dan out of the hotel. Looking at the car outside, I was embarrassed.

Zhu Dan is drunk, and I can't drive, so I can only spend the night here tonight.

Fortunately, there was a hotel nearby, so I took Zhu Dan in and opened the room.

She lay on the bed, groggily asleep.

Then start throwing up.

Vomiting in the dark.

Spit on his body and on the sheets, a mess.

I helped Zhu Dan into the bathroom, turned on the faucet, and rinsed her.

In the sky full of splashes.

Zhu Dan seemed to be sober.

Then she cried.

No more covering your face with your hands.

Cry as much as you want.

I looked at Zhu Dan, who was trembling like an electric shock, and felt a deep powerlessness.

Woman.

Why it's always the woman who gets hurt.

I straightened the sheets and stuffed Zhu Dan, who was wearing only underwear, into the quilt.
