Two days later, the family room in the Jiangcun Township Government compound was in a festive atmosphere. There is a big red couplet pasted at the door of the kitchen, the upper couplet: a good fate in the same place for a long time, and the lower couple: a hundred years of good couples are long.

On a sunny day, the washing and chopping of vegetables were moved to the cement road outside the house, and people were talking and laughing. There were seven or eight square tables on the flat ground past the concrete road, all borrowed from neighbors.

This day is the day of Cheng Chuifan and Wang Yuqi's engagement, which is the so-called good day and auspicious day.

In Jiang Village, how many people come to congratulate when they get married, and how many people come to eat on the day of engagement.

Therefore, for the people of Jiang Village, the engagement of a daughter and the marriage of a daughter are the same great joy.

The "women's army" that Wang Yuqi brought to Qijiatun to investigate the family had returned to Jiang Village on the first day, and the "important people" in Cheng Chuifan's family also followed. The so-called important people refer to the male elders in Cheng Chuifan's family, Cheng Chuifan's uncles, uncles, grandfathers and little grandfathers, and of course, Cheng Chuifan's father.

In an engagement, the man goes to the woman's house to negotiate affairs and the woman goes to the man to check on the man's house. This is also a local custom.

If it weren't too far away, the man would come on the day of the engagement, each carrying a basket of grain, which contained the supplies for the woman's engagement and hospitality - all expenses on the day of the woman's engagement were paid by the man, including oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.

Since Cheng Chuifan's family is far away in Qijiatun, it takes a day to take the shuttle, so it is impossible to come on the same day, and it is impossible to pick up things from the man's house with a grain basket, and it is just a form for them to pick a load of grain basket, and all the things to eat are prepared here in Jiang Village, and Cheng Chuifan pays enough money.

There are seven or eight square tables, and at least four or five tables are surrounded by people, those who wash mahjong (at that time, mahjong machines were not invented), those who play cards, and those who sit at the table to eat melon seeds and drink tea. Hu Zhibao and Lu Jialuo's brothers are all playing "three cards".

Sun Meifeng, Lin Yan, and Li Qiaoyun are all helping, chopping vegetables, and washing vegetables. Xue Rui was with Wang Yuqi. Wu Liang and Xu Yi's task is to accompany the "important people" of the Cheng Chuifan family to drink tea and talk about things.

Cheng Chuifan's face was full of red light, and he was holding the Butterfly Spring in his hand and scattering smoke everywhere.

……

Yangjiang.

Xue Qigui finally got through to Yang Ping's office.

"You take a taxi to the old place, and we'll meet. "Xue Qigui straight cage barrel tunnel.

"Now? I just got back from outside. Yang Ping was surprised on the phone.

"I'll give you ten minutes. Xue Qigui hung up the phone without waiting for Yang Ping's reply. He took his briefcase, walked out of the public security bureau, got into a car that had been parked at the door of the public security bureau a long time ago, and drove to the old place he and Yang Ping talked about.

A hundred meters away, a Poussin quietly followed.

Xue Qigui drove to the old place and waited for about ten minutes before Yang Ping arrived. Yang Ping got off the tricycle, looked left and right and saw no familiar people, and walked straight to Xue Qigui's car parked on the side of the road.

"What are you doing here, dating me in broad daylight?" Yang Ping sat in the passenger seat with a smile on her face.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you. I'll take you to a place. Xue Qigui said angrily.

"It's really a monkey rush. ”

Xue Qigui sneered and stopped talking. In just twenty minutes, Xue Qigui parked the car on the side of the road and said to Yang Ping: "Get out of the car." ”

"Where is this? You can't go to the village or the store, do you want to take me here to fight in the field?" Yang Ping opened the car door and went down to the ground.

On the side of the road is a mulberry forest. Because it was winter, all the mulberry leaves had fallen. The mulberry forest used to be a sandy area. A pristine body of water in the distance.

"The view is beautiful. Yang Ping sighed.

"Let's go for a walk in the sand. With that, Xue Qigui walked into the mulberry forest.

"Good thing I'm wearing sneakers. You're waiting for me. Yang Ping said, "What's wrong with you today, are you in a bad mood?"

Xue Qigui just walked forward, through the mulberry forest to the sand, and then stopped.

Yang Ping already felt that something was wrong, but she still followed.

On the gravel road, Poussin, who had always kept about a hundred meters away from Xue Qigui's car, also stopped on the side of the road, and a middle-aged woman got out of the car. The middle-aged woman entered the mulberry forest from the other end of the mulberry forest and slowly approached Xue Qigui and them.

"Honey, what's wrong with you today?" Yang Ping walked up to Xue Qigui and gestured to take Xue Qigui's arm.

"You stink*!" Xue Qigui gave Yang Ping a backhand slap.

Yang Ping's pretty face immediately turned red, and she covered her face with her hands in shock, "Director Xue?"

Xue Qigui then slapped Yang Ping's face again, "You stink*." I'm blind!"

"Director Xue, Yang Ping, what did I do wrong, you just say it, you beat me like this?" Yang Ping's face was aggrieved, and her eyes were watery. But what she couldn't hide was the fear in her heart. Xue Qigui's abnormal behavior, it is impossible for someone as smart as her not to think of anything. But she was holding on to the luck mentality, hoping that it was not what she had imagined. Didn't that group of Hua'an people give her all the negatives?

"Show me the!" Xue Qigui pulled out a stack of photos from his briefcase and threw them on the sand.

Yang Ping was instantly suffocated. I don't want to return to hope, Yang Ping knew that she was thinking things too simple, and she knew that she was too simple.

Yang Ping lifted the trench coat, and then squatted down to pick up the photo, her heart beating wildly.

Xue Qigui kicked Yang Ping, and Yang Ping fell to the ground along this kick.

"You stink*. My old Xue is so heartfelt to you, and you still hide from me to raise a little white face?" Xue Qigui was furious.

Yang Ping struggled to get up, "Xue, Director Xue, I'm ......"

"In the past few years, without me, can you open such a large department store? Without me, where did you get so much money to operate? Without me, Lao Xue, your mother's bullshit is not you? Your wings are stiff, and you want to betray me! Believe it or not, I will shoot you to death!" Xue Qigui became more and more angry.

"Director Xue, I'm sorry, it's Yang Ping who is wrong, Yang Ping is wrong!" Yang Ping knelt on her knees.

"I was caught, and I even told me that He Wurui is your aunt's son. Do you know how much the I've taken a risk, and I'm not going to be able to secure my position at the Public Security Bureau?!"

"Director Xue—" Yang Ping stood up.

"Don't call me Director Xue! ”

"Everyone is released, are they still staring at this matter?" Hearing Xue Qigui say that the position of the Public Security Bureau was not guaranteed, Yang Ping suddenly forgot the pain on his face and the humiliation in his heart.

"That's my business. My Lao Xue called you over today to tell you that from now on, we will cut it off. I'll give you a month to get the department store in order. Or you can free up the funds to give me. ”

"Director Xue, I was wrong, Yang Ping was wrong. You'll forgive me for once. I'm your little darling. You can't be so ruthless?" Yang Ping cried.

"I'll your little darling. Xue Qigui turned around in extreme disgust, and suddenly saw Xue Rui's mother hiding in the mulberry forest, "Wife-"

"Xue Qigui—" Xue Rui's mother was hysterical, and she turned around and ran towards the gravel road.

PS: Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry, because there are many affairs during the Spring Festival, and oranges can't insist on two more changes a day, forgive me.
