The fifteenth day of the first lunar month, which is the so-called Lantern Festival in China.

Tianzhou City.

Coral Community, located on Coral Road in the west of the city, was built at the beginning of the 21st century and has a history of more than 10 years.

It can be seen that the appearance of the floor, whether it is the height of the scale or the brightness, is far inferior to other nearby communities, and it seems a little shabby.

On the occasion of the festival, Liu Jianxian clocked out from the police station on time at five o'clock, drove the somewhat old police car, and went to the vegetable market near his home.

"Yo, Captain Liu, I'm going to get off work so early today. ”

"Officer Liu. ”

"Captain Liu. ”

……

Liu Jianxian didn't have a shelf, he was wearing ordinary casual clothes, smiling and waving, which was dealing with these vendors.

"Alas. ”

"It's not a festival today, I got off work early, come over and order food, and have a good meal in the evening. ”

"How much pork have you had lately?"

The stall owner replied: "50 pounds." ”

Liu Jianxian hesitated for a moment, a little incredulous, and couldn't help frowning, "It's going to be fifty, so expensive?"

"No, it's the price right now. Captain Liu wants to have some?"

"Forget it, give me some pork head meat, the braised meat is still delicious, and it also goes with wine." ”

"Okay, then I'll give you the whole piece. ”

Liu Jianxian turned around, looked at the vegetables in the other stalls, and pondered what to buy.

"Okay, Captain Liu, your pig's head meat is a total of twenty yuan. ”

Liu Jianxian nodded and took the bag very naturally, but when he glanced inside casually, he had always been keen, and he noticed something unusual.

"Boss Wang, I only need a piece of pig's head meat, why do you have half a pound of pork belly in it? ”

The boss laughed dryly: "Isn't this a holiday, this pork belly should be regarded as a holiday gift, Captain Liu will take it back and burn it for the children to eat." ”

"No, no, no, you are a small businessman, how can you afford to give it away like this. How much is it, I bought this meat, and I will give it to you together. ”

"Captain Liu, I don't mean anything else, you live nearby, and you are also acquaintances of the neighbors, so it's completely a little bit of heart. ”

Speaking of this, seeing that Liu Jianxian still didn't mean to collect it, he couldn't help but say what was in his heart: "The big guys have been taken care of a lot by you over the years, the gangsters are gone, and the protection fee doesn't have to be paid. ”

Liu Jianxian was a little relieved, "I can't say that, as a policeman, it is my duty to maintain social order and let the people live and work in peace and contentment." If it's just because of this, I accept the pork belly, and I deserve it. ”

"Here, I'll put the money here, and if it's more, it's fifty yuan. ”

With that, the man walked away with the food, leaving only the stall owner who wanted to say nothing.

After a turn in the vegetable market and bought a large bag of vegetables, Liu Jianxian drove home.

The staircase room, there is no elevator, and he still lives on the seventh floor, which means that he usually goes out and climbs such a high building every time, which is obviously a thing to criticize in a convenient city like Tianzhou City.

The house is not big, only more than 80 square meters, barely has three bedrooms and one living room, there are two retired parents at home, a pair of children, plus a wife, a total of six people.

"I'm back. ”

The door opened, and the two children, who could hear the voice, immediately ran over, hugging their thighs on the left and right.

"Where's grandparents?"

"Watching TV in the living room. The two children replied in milky voices.

"What about Mom?"

Without waiting for the child to answer, the housewives in their thirties at the kitchen door were looking at him lukewarmly, quite resentful.

"Here, if you don't come back to the house, a few mouths will starve to death with you. ”

Liu Jianxian laughed dryly, and said stupidly: "Isn't this going to buy vegetables, give it, hand it over and hand it over to you, the chef." ”

The willow woman glared at him angrily, then took the things and walked towards the kitchen.

"Pig's head meat, eat this during the holidays?"

Hearing this, Liu Jianxian hurriedly walked in, "Where, isn't there still pork belly, the pig's head meat was bought for special wine." ”

……

In the evening, the family of six had a holiday meal together in a somewhat narrow hall, and there was no activity, so Liu Jianxian went back to his room early to sleep.

After cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, cleaning, and taking care of the children, the old people rested, and then returned to the room with a straight face.

The man on the bed closed his eyes tightly, as if he didn't notice it, still motionless, nestled in the quilt, with his back to the comer.

"Get up. ”

Seeing this, the willow woman was angry, and raised her leg to kick the person in the quilt.

"Why, sleep, I have to go to work early tomorrow morning. ”

"It's only what time it is, just sleep, sleep, is the matter of the house settled?"

Liu Jianxian was still covered with a quilt, and his voice was humming: "Isn't this saving money, and the house is not something that can be bought overnight, and you don't know how expensive the house price is now." ”

"Don't give me a fool of what I understand. ”

Liu Nu lifted the quilt and held it in her hand, "Doesn't the real estate boss who came to our house last time have a house in his hand? ”

"Hey, how can you eavesdrop on someone talking as a woman?"

After that, he frowned and snatched the quilt from her hand, while not forgetting to warn: "If he comes to the door again in the future, don't let him in." You think there is such a good thing, and it is not a good thing to take a short man, and besides, he is not a good thing. ”

"You ......"

Looking at Liu Jianxian, who was lying back again, the Liu woman pounced on him with hatred and hatred, and said: "Are you an elm head or something, aren't you stupid? You see that Lao Li next door is just the deputy director of a small street police station, how is it now? In the early years, the old houses were rented out as second-hand landlords, and the family had already lived in an elevator room of more than 100 square meters.

But what about you, the Municipal Public Security Bureau, which point is not better than others? As a result, day by day, there is still no house, and you still live with your parents, you are not ashamed, I am ashamed. ”

"Moreover, this year, I was promoted to the captain of the Municipal Criminal Police Brigade, and if you sit in this position, will no one scold you? Even if you are flexible, our family will not have to be so poor. ”

"What is the captain of the criminal police brigade, that's just an agent, and once the limelight passes after the year, the captain's position is still presided over by Captain Lin. ”

Hearing this, Liu Nu immediately couldn't help but grab the flesh around his waist, and said angrily: "How did I marry such a self-motivated and unambitious person like you." How many years have you been a criminal policeman, and your qualifications are no older than her? Since you have gone up, you have worked hard to sit in this position, how can anyone like you still think about coming down all day long?"

The person in the quilt couldn't help but mutter, "Originally, he was the captain." ”

The willow woman was angry, "I...... I'll you off sooner or later. ”

Seeing this, Liu Jianxian turned over, pulled down the person on the quilt with a smile, and hugged him into his arms, covered the quilt and covered it tightly.

"What are you doing. ”

"Hehe, don't be angry......"

"The door hasn't been closed yet, and the children aren't asleep...... Hmmm......"

......
