Chapter 57: Don't Come Unharmed
It is said that the human heart is full of desires and dissatisfaction.
Everyone, at every stage of this life, has their own pursuit, just like Qiu Xinxin, her first pursuit when she first entered college was to be able to eat enough and dress warmly.
For poor children from remote mountainous areas, this pursuit is simple, but it is also a luxury.
At the beginning, Qiu Xinxin used her spare time to work part-time outside desperately to earn a meager income to supplement her life.
But when both of her parents became seriously ill, her source of income was cut off.
Her life choices have changed irreversibly, and it was at that time that she met Zhang Mingxin.
Zhang Mingxin is the head chef in the school, and his income is quite considerable in Qiu Xinxin's eyes, although Zhang Mingxin and Jiang Wenwen were already in a relationship at that time.
But for Zhang Mingxin's invitation, she couldn't refuse.
The first time they went out to eat, they opened a room, Qiu Xinxin is not a casual girl, but under the pressure of money, she can only succumb, succumb to the reality of this world, and succumb to the injustice of fate to herself.
Zhang Mingxin was not stingy with her, and during the time he was dating her, 2/3 of his salary was given to Qiu Xinxin.
In order to make more money, Qiu Xinxin chose to be a micro-business.
But she has a narrow circle, but she didn't make any clues in the micro-business.
And she owes a lot of debts, just owing Zhang Mingxin as much as forty or fifty thousand, because of economic disputes, her relationship with Zhang Mingxin deteriorated rapidly, resulting in a final turn of face for money.
Under the forced debt again and again.
Qiu Xinxin, who was young and kind but desperate, killed Zhang Mingxin, and at that time, Qiu Xinxin also learned that Jiang Wenwen was also close to Zhang Mingxin.
"What kind of excellent man is a man who can make two women hate him at the same time?"
I stared at the tea that I had already drunk half a cup of, and my heart fluctuated, feeling embarrassed for Qiu Xinxin's experience.
Qiu Xinxin suddenly gritted her teeth, and the muscles on her face became very distorted, as if she had thought of something unbearable from the past.
In her originally kind eyes, a touch of murderous intent suddenly appeared.
Her voice was quite resentful: "You probably don't know, right? Zhang Mingxin was originally a beast, an out-and-out beast, and the woman who slept with him every time was like coming out of hell, experiencing unbearable pain, that kind of pain that people would remember for a lifetime." ”
Hearing this, I glanced at Qin Mengmeng and motioned for her to hurry up and rest, because this is something that is not suitable for children, and it is not suitable for her to listen here.
But before Qin Mengmeng got up, Qiu Xinxin began to speak.
This is probably the most embarrassing thing I hear from a girl: "I think you know what? My first time, the first time, he actually used a wine bottle to ......."
"Enough. ”
I raised my hand to stop Qiu Xinxin's speech, my scalp was already numb, a beast that abused women, it was really not worth discussing here, I said to Qin Mengmeng: "It's not early, take your sister Xinxin back to rest, I'm a little tired today, I'm going to sleep too." ”
Qin Mengmeng sat up very obediently and picked up Qiu Xinxin's hand: "Let's go Aunt Xinxin, it's too late today, let's sleep first, and tomorrow Mengmeng will accompany you out for a walk." ”
"I know you sympathize with me, or pity me, I thank you, seriously, I don't care, I can tell you all the humiliation I have suffered over the years, I also feel that this is a relief, thank you Wu Xiao Thank you Meng Meng, thank you for listening to me tonight. ”
Qiu Xinxin raised her face and opened her eyes vigorously, as if she wanted the tears in her eyes to pour back again, not wanting the tears to fall.
She raised her face and said: "Wu Xiao, thank you for taking me in for so long, in fact, the haunted thing in the dormitory was not true, I just felt that I was too lonely and didn't want to stay in that lonely dormitory, where I didn't have a single person, and now I feel that the whole world can't talk to me anymore." ”
"Sister Xinxin, isn't there still me here?"
Qin Mengmeng poked Qiu Xinxin's shoulder with her hand and said softly.
Qiu Xinxin stretched out her hand and touched Qin Mengmeng's head, and forced a smile: "Mengmeng, I don't want you to enter my world, I don't want you to be contaminated with my sadness, you still live the life you should live well, and you should be happy in your world, by the way, you said that Zhang Mingxin is the principal's uncle, this may be true or false, but your sister Xinxin has never used his identity to earn a little benefit." ”
"I'm sorry, Aunt Xinxin, I was wrong. ”
Qin Mengmeng had tears in her eyes and admitted her mistake to Qiu Xinxin.
At this time, Wang Wei called me, I stood up with my mobile phone, asked the two girls to communicate in the living room, I walked up to the balcony and pressed the answer button.
Wang Wei asked me on the phone: "Brother, do you have time recently?"
"What do you think?"
I knew that as long as Wang Wei called, nothing good would happen, so I tensed my nerves and asked him.
Wang Wei said: "I have sorted out the causes and consequences of the whole thing, and I think our original idea was right, and the initial point of the matter should still be Guadan Village, because only Guatian Village has the most doubts, and many of the dead people came out of Guadan Village." ”
Listening to his words, I was silent.
He suddenly said to me: "By the way, brother, I shouldn't have seen your father-in-law yet, right?"
This sentence was like a heavy hammer, suddenly pounding to the bottom of my heart, shaking my internal organs to the point that I was about to jump out.
Yes, since I married Zhang Miao, I haven't been back to her parents' home.
Zhang Miao never talked to me about their mother's family, she was like a person who jumped out of a crack in a stone, without any family relationship.
Although this made me very strange, but after a long time, I didn't ask again, because I knew that Zhang Miao had escaped from the village, and I was afraid that if I asked, it would involve more unimaginable things.
Now that Wang Wei suddenly said this, I remembered the seriousness of this matter, since Zhang Miao is no longer there, then what do I care about? Maybe I can really go to see their family members, and I can find some clues about Zhang Miao's death.
But I was embarrassed again, what kind of identity did I use to appear in front of her family?
……
Although it is already early autumn, Guadin Village is still lush and green.
Qin Mengmeng and I knocked on a wooden door.
The wooden door opened, and out of the low house came an old man.
This old man's face is full of ravines, as old as the dead wood on the side of the road, if he guesses correctly, he should be Zhang Miao's father.
The old man looked at the man and woman in front of him with a puzzled look on his face and asked, "What are you two going to do?"
"Uncle, we came to the village to do errands, and when we were thirsty, we wanted to come to your house to drink a sip of water. ”
I looked at the lonely old man in front of me, and for some reason, my nose suddenly became sore, and I felt like tears wanted to fall out.
The old man looked back at the well in his yard, shook his head, and said to us, "Our family drinks well water, and you people in the city are not used to drinking well water, so you should go to another house to find water to drink." ”
"Grandpa, we like to drink well water, the well water is sweet and refreshing, and it is not polluted, so we drink your well water. ”
Perhaps it was because of the curiosity about the well water, Qin Mengmeng beside me spread her footsteps and went into the yard, and walked directly to the old well, looking at her like that, as if she was going to pick up the things on the well platform and draw water inside.
But before Qin Mengmeng reached the well, the old man in the yard rushed over like crazy, and pushed her hand back.
While pushing, he looked like an angry lion, and roared loudly: "Where did the dead hooves come from, if you don't let you drink, you won't let you drink, get out of here, you are not welcome in my yard, get out quickly." ”
If it weren't for me holding Qin Mengmeng, Qin Mengmeng would definitely be pushed and fell to the ground by the old man, and the two of us were pushed out of the yard by the old man, and then the old man slammed the door angrily, scolded and scolded, and plugged the bolt up.
Qin Mengmeng and I looked at each other, disgraced.
Qin Mengmeng pouted apologetically and said to me: "I'm sorry uncle, I was wrong, I shouldn't have messed with the old man, and then gave us such a closed door." ”
"Isn't it just a well of water, why is he suddenly angry, is this a moody old man?"
I touched the bridge of my nose and frowned, thinking of Zhang Miao back then, I grew up in such an environment, and I couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
I patted Qin Mengmeng's shoulder and comforted her: "It's okay, don't blame yourself too much, let's go to Wang Wei first and understand the situation clearly." ”
Qin Mengmeng glanced back at the dilapidated courtyard, suddenly turned her little face to look at me, and asked me: "Uncle, I suddenly want to know what kind of person your ex-wife is." ”
"Why do you say that?"
I looked down at her and she looked me straight in the eye, "Since her family is so moody, could she be a moody person too?"
I shook my head vigorously: "No, this is really not, my wife is a gentle and considerate girl, she should be the most virtuous girl I have met, the most virtuous girl in the world, otherwise how could I marry her?"
"I really envy your wife, you have been gone for so long, and your face is still full of happiness when you recall. ”
Qin Mengmeng's eyes showed an extremely envious look, which made me a little strange, how could an innocent and lively girl envy a dead person.
I smiled and said to her, "You envy a ghost, you see that although my face is happy, what is the feeling in my heart? You may never experience that kind of pain and regret can only be understood by those who have experienced it yourself." ”
"So I don't want to experience it, I don't want to understand it, because I don't want to lose, I just want to hold on, I'm just such a person, as long as I feel that something belongs to me, even if I betray the whole world, I want to take it for myself. ”
Qin Mengmeng's eyes were full of firmness and confidence.
I can't help but sigh that it's good to be young, although young is ignorant, but also fearless, in a fearless age, everything is beautiful.
We came to Wang Wei's school, and Wang Wei was not there.
But there is an old acquaintance here, and that person is Zhang Gong.
Zhang Qing and his apprentices were decorating the newly built library of the school, and when they saw my appearance, they all stood up, carried the tools in their hands, and slowly leaned towards me.
I never dreamed that the enemy would be so blushing when they met.
I think that in the first critical situation, I overturned Zhang Qing with a shovel, but now I am caught in their encirclement.
Zhang Qing walked up to me, holding the hammer in his hand, with a smug expression on his face: "Doctor Wu, I haven't seen you for many days, don't come to harm." ”
