Chapter 1: Very Difficult (I)
Tianming Real Estate Company in City A invested hundreds of millions of yuan to build a 32-storey Tianming Building in the middle of Puming Road. The Tianming Building project was undertaken by A City Qiangsheng Construction Co., Ltd., the project manager was Su Keyong, and the steel bar construction task was jointly contracted by Lin Wenwen, Wang Chengrong and Li Gui.
Lin Wenwen, Wang Chengrong and Li Gui are from two villages in Songlin Town, County C: Lin Wenwen and Wang Chengrong are from Beidou Village, and Li Gui is from Chiping Village. Lin Wenwen, Wang Chengrong and Li Gui went to school in the same class in Songlin Middle School, and they became brothers at that time, and the relationship was like an iron wall, but unfortunately they were not admitted to high school, and they went to the city to work as steel workers.
Lin Wenwen is taciturn, the dog bites and does not bark, the heart is kind, and the mind is broad. Wang Chengrong is mature and steady, bold and careful, and good at talking. Li Gui attaches great importance to righteousness, has an impatient personality, and has a particularly strong ability to act. Lin Wenwen, Wang Chengrong and Li Gui all have a high level of understanding, and after two and a half years of working as steel workers, they can understand the construction drawings and try to contract the steel bar construction task in partnership.
Before Lin Wenwen, Wang Chengrong and Li Gui jointly contracted the steel bar construction task of the Tianming Building project, they had contracted the construction of the steel bar workers of the Pacific Hotel project in F City, but unfortunately the Pacific Hotel project in F City did not make them a lot of money, but they had more than 50 workers.
Lin Wenwen was in the second semester of the third year of junior high school, and he actually had a crush on Erin, a female classmate in the same class. Erin is a native of Chiping Village, beautiful as a flower, careful and kind, gentle and tactful, and sentimental. Wang Chengrong easily saw the signs, so he asked Lin Wenwen if he had a crush on Irene. Lin Wenwen told Wang Chengrong truthfully and asked him to help pass the small note to Erin. Erin also likes the Lin scriptures, and the surface is always as if nothing happened. Lin Wenwen and Erin went back and forth several times, and they fell in love early.
Erin was admitted to high school, and three years later was admitted to the Chinese Department of a certain provincial normal university. During the separation of Lin Wenwen and Erin, they communicated by letter or phone to maintain their relationship. Erin went to the second semester of her freshman year and came home on May Day, which turned the situation upside down. Jiang Guohua, chairman of Henghua Real Estate Company in A City, is the sister of Erin's great-grandmother, Erin's father Ai Zhao does not know Jiang Guohua at all, and Jiang Guohua and his wife Peng Ximei not long ago took several people and took three luxury cars to Chiping Village to visit Ai Zhao and Cheng Bixia and his wife. Jiang Guohua has a net worth of more than 3 billion yuan, and Ai Zhao is an authentic farmer, plus several generations of relatives of the two families have become strangers, Jiang Guohua and Peng Ximei's visit is a bit abnormal. Peng Ximei told Ai Zhao and Cheng Bixia that she was very rich, that her family had six luxury cars and three villas, and that her two sons, Jiang Xiaohua and Jiang Xiaoqiang, were very sensible...... Ai Zhao and Cheng Bixia couldn't understand Jiang Guohua's intentions and couldn't understand Peng Ximei's words.
After Peng Ximei went home, she often called Cheng Bixia, and the communication between the two gradually deepened. Jiang Guohua's eldest son Jiang Xiaohua has married a wife and had children, and the second son Jiang Xiaoqiang has a very low IQ, close to an idiot, often buying things and not knowing how much money to find, or it takes a long time to figure it out, and is lustful and rude, which makes Jiang Guohua very sad. Jiang Guohua learned from a friend that his great-grandmother's sister had the only female college student, Erin, and remembered Jiang Xiaoqiang's marriage, so he started Erin's idea. Cheng Bixia figured out Jiang Guohua's intentions, but she didn't know that Jiang Xiaoqiang was a womanizer, and she coveted Jiang Guohua's money, and she was willing to marry Erin to Jiang Xiaoqiang, but she said that she had to talk to Ai Zhao. Peng Ximei urged Cheng Bixia to reply as soon as possible on the grounds that she wanted to hold her grandson. Cheng Bixia told Ai Zhao about this, and expressed her willingness to marry Erin to Jiang Xiaoqiang, and Ai Zhao was not allowed to object. Peng Ximei and Cheng Bixia then decided to go on a blind date on May Day and immediately started arranging. Cheng Bixia didn't tell Erin about these situations, so she asked Erin to go home on May Day. Jiang Guohua, Peng Ximei and Jiang Xiaoqiang took three luxury cars and came to the door of Erin's house, which made Erin shocked. Cheng Bixia asked Erin to enter the blind date immediately, which caught Erin off guard. Erin turned a blind eye to Jiang Xiaoqiang and opened her mouth to refuse. Cheng Bixia explained with a smile to Jiang Guohua and Peng Ximei, and even said that Erin was ignorant and hoped that they would bear with her. Irene ran back to her bedroom angrily and sat in front of the dresser to grieve alone. Jiang Xiaoqiang then touched Erin's bedroom, walked behind Erin, and wanted to hug Erin from behind. Erin saw Jiang Xiaoqiang's shadow in the dresser, quickly got up and pushed Jiang Xiaoqiang out, and finally saw Jiang Xiaoqiang's squinting eyes in the pull. Ai Zhao and Cheng Bixia then took turns to persuade Erin to marry Jiang Xiaoqiang, and called it "kiss and kiss". Erin thought about it and said that she had fallen in love with Lin Wen. Ai Zhao and Cheng Bixia couldn't convince Erin for a while, so they had to give up. Jiang Guohua, Peng Ximei and Jiang Xiaoqiang left in disappointment, unwilling.
Cheng Bixia immediately found someone to understand the details of Lin Wenwen, and learned that Lin Wenwen was 1.61 meters tall, his family background was very bad, and he worked as a steel bar worker after graduating from junior high school...... So he applied both soft and hard to Erin, comparing Jiang Xiaoqiang's family background with Lin Wenwen's family background, and then comparing the two figures, and said that Erin is a talented girl studying Chinese, how can she marry a junior high school student? Erin was indifferent to Jiang Guohua's Jindui Yinshan and did not agree to marry Jiang Xiaoqiang. Cheng Bixia said that her family was poor and could no longer afford to send Erin and her younger brother Ai Shiliang to school, so she forced Erin to agree to marry Jiang Xiaoqiang, and Jiang Xiaoqiang would provide her with the help of completing her studies. Erin said that Lin Wenwen could help her finish her studies, so she didn't say anything else, and then went back to school.
Peng Ximei then called Cheng Bixia a few more times, and the more the two talked, the more they talked, and decided to prepare themselves and let Jiang Xiaoqiang and Erin get married on July 1. Ai Zhao and Cheng Bixia can get a dowry of one million yuan, and don't give Erin any dowry. After Erin returned to school, she told Lin Wenwen about the blind date arranged by her parents and asked him to make up his mind. Lin Wenwen expressed his willingness to let Erin finish college and go to her house to persuade Ai Zhao and Cheng Bixia during the summer vacation.
Erin came home during the summer vacation and learned that her family was planning to let her get married on July 1, and was closely monitored by Ai Zhao and Cheng Bixia, and even placed under house arrest. Lin Wenwen then found Erin's house and was stopped at the door by Cheng Bixia. Cheng Bixia explained the situation to Lin Wenwen, and then persuaded him to die as soon as possible. Lin Wenwen is usually silent, and I don't know where I have the courage to fight for reason. Cheng Bixia was annoyed and angry, saying that Lin Wenwen wants to have no figure, he wants money without money, and he wants literature without literary talent...... It's just useless. Lin Wenwen was sneered at, but he still did not give up and continued to entangle. Cheng Bixia said that Lin Wenwen wanted to marry Erin as his wife, and he must meet three conditions: first, Lin Wenwen would bear all the expenses of Erin's schooling, and he must pay him a dowry of one million yuan, and he would not make any dowry for Erin; second, buy a luxury car worth more than one million yuan; third, go to the county seat to buy a better house, and cannot apply for a mortgage to buy a house. Lin Wenwen didn't have that kind of economic strength, but he couldn't bear to watch Erin marry Jiang Xiaoqiang, so he reluctantly asked for five years to himself, and said that he was contracting the steel bar workers of the Pacific Hotel project in F City, and he could earn this money by doing a few more large-scale projects. Cheng Bixia not only did not agree, but also ridiculed Lin Wenwen for being very short. Lin Wenwen was anxious and angry, so he said that the short man was a "highly concentrated product", which caused Cheng Bixia to sneer. Cheng Bixia and Lin Wenwen argued to no avail and broke up unhappily.
Erin could hear it clearly in the house, and she was anxious and crying sadly.
Lin Wenwen came to Erin's house one after another to entangle in the next few days, and was scolded back by Cheng Bixia. Erin cried noisily every day, which made Cheng Bixia uneasy, until the night before the wedding, Cheng Bixia couldn't stand it, picked up a fruit knife, and threatened Erin with death to agree to the marriage. Erin suddenly relented and tearfully agreed to marry Jiang Xiaoqiang.
Erin married Jiang Xiaoqiang for two days, and found that Jiang Xiaoqiang's IQ was extremely low, and he was lustful and rude. Peng Ximei is a ruthless woman, and she often cries sadly when she sees Erin, without the slightest sympathy. Erin gave birth to a son a year later, but unfortunately died. Jiang Guohua and Peng Ximei were worried that Jiang Xiaoqiang would not find a wife, so they cut off the incense, so they tried every means to find Erin to be their daughter-in-law. Erin's life in the Jiang family became even more difficult in the future, and she acted like walking on thin ice.
After Cheng Bixia married her daughter, she lied to a certain provincial normal university that she couldn't pay the tuition, and Erin had to drop out of school and had gone out to work. Lin Wenwen was so grief-stricken that he had no intention of finding Cheng Bixia to entangle the theory, returned to the construction site of the Pacific Hotel in F City, and told Wang Chengrong and Li Gui about the matter. Wang Chengrong and Li Gui were indignant and comforted Lin Wenwen again and again. Lin Jingwen was originally silent, and since then it has become melancholy and silent, asking others "three questions and one answer". After a period of time, the workers on the construction site felt that some people gave Lin Wenwen a nickname - "Prince of Melancholy".
Erin has been married to Jiang Xiaoqiang for more than four years, and she has not contacted Lin Wenwen again, and Lin Wenwen has been thinking about Erin all the time.
Lin Wenwen, Wang Chengrong and Li Gui completed the Pacific Hotel project in City F, and turned to contract the steel bar construction task of the Tianming Building Project in City A, and the number of workers under them quickly increased to more than 80 people.
In the early morning of 23 March 2003, the sky was overcast, like rain but not rain, and the cold wind was blowing. The Tianming Building in City A was built to the 30th floor, and the construction workers worked normally. Wang Chengrong went out on something and did not enter the construction site. Lin Wenwen and Li Gui walked into the construction site against the cold wind, talking and laughing.
Lin Wenwen is twenty-five years old, only 1.61 meters tall, slightly thin, wearing a red hard hat, a slightly long black face, thick black eyebrows, apricot eyes, handsome and melancholy, a big nose that can smell all kinds of breath, a wide mouth that wants to swallow the waves of the East China Sea, white and neat teeth, big and fat ears, he wears dark green casual clothes on the top, dark jeans on the bottom, and gray sneakers on his feet.
Li Gui was 25 years old, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, very strong, with a square face, the color of a heavy jujube, his sword eyebrows as black as ink paintings, his apricot eyes like fire, his nose was big, his mouth was wide and wide, his teeth were white, and his lips were thick; he wore black casual clothes on his upper body, light-colored jeans on the bottom, and gray sneakers on his feet.
Lin Wenwen and Li Gui came to the construction work surface and quickly put themselves into work.
After a while, Bao Xin, the project director of Tianming Building in City A, and Zhang Shijian, the project builder of Tianming Building in City A, walked towards Lin Wenwen together.
Bao Xin is about thirty-five years old, with an extraordinary appearance, strong and strong, black thick eyebrows and anger, bright and pretty eyes, serious eyes, panting nose, angry words, ruddy lips, and white teeth.
Zhang Shijian is in his thirties, with a big belly, depressed, a red complexion, thin black eyebrows, a mouth like a river, talking endlessly, his eyes are dim, and his nose is not good at smelling in all directions.
