After receiving Lin Ping's invitation, Wang Xinming thought for a while and agreed.

In Lin Ping's view, Zhongguo Hope School is in need of a "talent" like Wang Xinming, although Wang Xinming does not have a high degree and high education, but Wang Xinming can play a very big role for Zhongguo Hope School and Kushan at this stage, and can help Lin Ping share the pressure and affairs of the school-run industry, so that Lin Ping can focus more on the education of students.

Unlike the previous times when he returned with a full load, Wang Xinming went back empty-cared this time, but he went to Xibei County this time to shoulder the task assigned to him by Lin Ping, that is, he wanted to negotiate with several big supermarkets in Xibei County to see which supermarket was willing to cooperate with Zhongguo Hope School and win the sales right of Kushan Mountain goods in Xibei County.

With the sale of mountain goods, the life of the old folks of Kushan gradually improved, and they had more money than before, and the commissary business of Zhongguo Hope School also became better. At present, Zhongguo hopes that the school's position as a bridgehead for the economic development of Kushan has been gradually established, and the measures to promote the economic development of Kushan with school-run industries have achieved initial success.

On the third day, Wang Xinming drove his own car back from the county town, and the car was full of things.

Lin Ping looked at the things pulled by Wang Xinming's car and said with a smile: "Brother Xinming, have you moved all your home?"

Wang Xinming nodded very bluntly and said, "Yes, I returned all the houses I rented in the city." The broken bungalow costs me 300 yuan a month for rent, anyway, I will go back to our Kushan, so I thought about returning the house, you see if I can live in the school, if not, I will find a house nearby to rent. You also know that our place is a bit far from the school, and it is really inconvenient for me to go back to my parents' place. ”

Lin Ping smiled and said, "It's okay." There are also a lot of empty dormitories in the school, which of course allows you to live there. However, you may not be able to put so much stuff down. ”

Wang Xinming smiled and said, "It's okay, I know." I'll put some mattresses and futons or something, and pull everything else to my parents. ”

At this time, Zhang Yipeng also came over and planned to help Wang Xinming move things on the car.

Zhang Yipeng looked at Wang Xinming, looked at the double bed in the car, and asked a little curiously: "Brother Xinming, are you in your thirties? Why are you still alone, what about my sister-in-law? Don't tell me that you are not married." ”

"Alas. ”

After listening to Zhang Yipeng's transformation, Wang Xinming leaned on the car and sighed, then took out a cigarette and a lighter from the pocket of his clothes on his chest, lit a cigarette, took a puff of cigarette, pursed his lips and said, "Married." ”

After a pause, he said, "My mother-in-law thought I was incapable and ran away with my son." ”

After Wang Xinming said this, he lowered his head and smoked a cigarette without saying a word.

Lin Ping and Zhang Yipeng were stunned for a moment, and looked at Wang Xinming's sad appearance and said a word.

The three big men were silent like this, and waited until Wang Xinming finished smoking a cigarette and took another cigarette, and then asked Zhang Yipeng: "By the way, Mr. Zhang, do you smoke?"

Zhang Yipeng looked at Lin Ping beside him, then looked at the classroom where Yu Mengfei was, then shook his head and said with a smile: "Forget it, don't smoke, quit." ”

Wang Xinming nodded with a smile and said, "Quit well, quit well." I've always wanted to quit, but I can't, I can't. ”

After hearing this, Zhang Yipeng comforted and said: "Brother Xinming, don't say that, I think you are very good." ”

Lin Ping also hurriedly said: "That's it, Brother Xinming, don't be presumptuous, in this society, as long as you are willing to work hard, you can always get ahead." ”

Wang Xinming smiled bitterly and nodded: "Yes, as long as you don't want to think about crooked ways and work hard, you can always support your family." Alas, I ...... I used to go the wrong way......"

Wang Xinming leaned on the car and smoked a cigarette, his eyes looked into the distance without saying a word, and suddenly tears flashed in the corners of his eyes, and the two young people, Lin Ping and Zhang Yipeng, were at a loss.

Wang Xinming wiped his tears and said: "Before, I just entered the city from the mountains to help my cousin work, and I met your sister-in-law, and your sister-in-law also came out of the countryside and entered the city. Although your sister-in-law's family disagreed, she still stole the household registration book and secretly married me. We rented a house in the city and gave birth to my son......"

Wang Xinming slowly opened the conversation box and slowly told Lin Ping and Zhang Yipeng in front of him about his past.

Love is beautiful, but some people say that marriage is often the grave of love. Because once you enter marriage, it means that you want to live and need a material foundation, and you can no longer rely on romance and fantasy to linger on sweetness.

Both parties in a marriage need to face cars, houses, children, firewood, rice, oil and salt, and the pressure of life is far from being comparable to that of being in love.

Wang Xinming and his wife were very affectionate when they were in love, and then made a private decision for life.

At that time, his wife's family did not agree with this family business and was very opposed, after all, rural people still have a certain sense of superiority in front of mountain people. Wang Xinming's wife's family wanted her to find someone from the city and marry into the city, but not a poor boy from the mountains like Wang Xinming.

And Wang Xinming's parents were not very supportive of this family business, and his parents fell in love with a girl from another family in the mountains. Wang Xinming's parents thought that it was difficult to raise a girl in the city, and wanted Wang Xinming to marry a daughter-in-law in the mountains.

But the power of love can ignore all difficulties and obstacles, Wang Xinming's wife still stole the household registration book from home and registered Wang Xinming, and even the wedding was not held.

After the two got married, they felt that the pressure began to become very great for some reason, and the two would have a little contradiction and friction from time to time. With Wang Xinming's wife pregnant, the financial pressure on the family fell on Wang Xinming alone.

As his son grows up, Wang Xinming's pressure is getting bigger and bigger, he urgently needs to make money, he wants to make a lot of money and change the current life situation. So, he took risks in order to make money, and he gambled the 5,000 yuan saved by his family to make an investment that he didn't understand. It's a pity that there were so many liars in that era, and he was finally deceived into a bamboo basket - a failure.

Love may not need material things, but marriage always needs it.

This deception made Wang Xinming's life pressure increase suddenly, and the family life of the couple was often stretched.

Wang Xinming's parents were poor people in the mountains, and they couldn't afford to help them, and his wife's family wanted them to divorce quickly, let alone help them.

And Wang Xinming was also a lot more decadent because of being deceived this time, he liked to drink, and his temper became bad, and he quarreled with his wife at every turn.

After sobering up, Wang Xinming's wife left Wang Xinming with her two-and-a-half-year-old son, and has not been seen since. Obviously, the mother and son left Xibei County, and may even have left Linxi City and Hanhua Province.

In that era of underdeveloped communications, and I was in financial difficulties, it was very difficult to find someone.

Wang Xinming took a puff of cigarette, and then smiled self-deprecatingly: "It's been five years and three months, I haven't seen their mother and son, and my son must be in school now." ”

Saying that, Wang Xinming couldn't help crying: "Sometimes when I see these children, I wonder what my son looks like now, how he is studying, and whether his mother has found him a stepfather......

Wang Xinming squatted on the ground and cried speechlessly as he spoke, Lin Ping and Zhang Yipeng looked at Wang Xinming like that and felt very sad, they knew that Wang Xinming had some things and some feelings in their hearts for many years, they couldn't know Wang Xinming's feelings, but they could see his pain from Wang Xinming's performance. 8)
