Chapter 35: Dresses
"I don't know the person you said, but I do know a person who is very similar to the person you described, her name is Xinzi, and her family lives near here, in the neighborhood where I work. The location of this community was originally a small village, there were about 20 families in the village, Xinzi's family lived on the edge of the village, his parents were honest farmers, and after the demolition, some of the villagers took the demolition compensation to buy a house in the city, and some chose to live in this community. Originally, Xinzi's family also planned to live in this community, but Xinzi wanted to buy a house in the city. ”
Jiang Ming took a sip of beer and continued, "But since Xinzi's parents have never bought or sold real estate, they don't know if there are traps in the purchase contract. As a result, Xinzi's family used almost all of their savings to buy a real estate brochure and a fake contract. ”
"Oh," Akakawa also felt that what happened to the Xinzi family was indeed miserable.
After this incident, Kaoko's parents returned, and they rented a garage in a family with the only money they had, while Kaiko was left alone in the city. After a few more years, Xinzi suddenly came back and told her family that she had found a rich boyfriend, and that she would take her family to the city to live together after she got married. ”
"Isn't that good?"
"It's good, but the good news only lasted for more than four months, and Xinzi returned to the countryside pregnant alone, and the family knew that she had been deceived! That person was a poor person at all. And she wants to find a rich man. Then there will be hope for their family. Jiang Ming swallowed a mouthful of skewers and slammed his mouth, his eyes full of regret.
"Oh, that's right!" Akakawa couldn't help but mutter.
Jiang Ming also felt that talking about this topic seemed too heavy, and the first time he asked someone to have a drink together, it didn't seem to be very harmonious to talk about these old sesame seeds and rotten grain. He looked apologetic: "Look at me, I'm so confused, I'm talking about this, come, touch a glass!"
Akakawa didn't think this topic was so inappropriate, he picked up the wine glass and touched it with Jiang Ming and drank it all.
"Thinking of Mr. Policeman, he has such a good amount of alcohol!"
Jiang Ming said, and talked about his own situation as he spoke, "The children are older, and none of them are around, so I am a bad old man at home, and I don't even have anyone to eat with every day." It's really sad to think about it, I'm not afraid of your jokes, if I had known that I would be as lonely as I am now, I would never have encouraged my children to go out and work hard, I would rather make money to support them and keep them by my side for the rest of my life!"
Jiang Ming's words surprised Chi Chuan! He didn't expect this old man to be so emotional! When he talked about other people's stories before, he just thought that Jiang Ming might be more suitable to tell them, but after listening to his words, Chi Chuan felt that Jiang Ming's words made people can't help but feel sad.
This may be the voice of most parents!
After three rounds of drinking, Jiang Ming was already drunk, Chichuan helped Jiang Ming and walked out of the snack street. Jiang Ming's home is in the guard's room in the community. Jiang Ming said that since his children did not come home from work all the year round, he rarely went home, and he ate and lived at his post all day long. Because it doesn't feel lonely that way.
Chi Chuan helped Jiang Ming into the guard room, Xiao Xu Guard in the guard room was on duty, he saw Chi Chuan helping Jiang Ming into the door, "Uncle Jiang, why are you drunk?"
Jiang Ming waved his hand at him with a big tongue: "It's okay, it's okay, this person is safe today." ”
After helping Jiang Ming to the simple single bed in the guard's room, Chi Chuan was about to leave, and the doorman Xiao Xu said with a grateful face: "Thank you for sending Uncle Jiang back, he never drinks, I don't know what's wrong today." ”
Xiao Xu said that Jiang Ming works weekdays, rarely drinks, and does not relax even on holidays, and today he was drunk which surprised him, and in the small talk with Xiao Xu, Chichuan learned that Jiang Ming's wife has been dead for 5 years, and his children are also working in other provinces, and the old man has no other pastime except for work on weekdays.
After saying goodbye to Xiao Xu, Chichuan took advantage of the night to take a taxi back to the police station. To his surprise, Xiao Lin was still working overtime.
"Why haven't you come home yet?"
"Boss, I have something to report to you, and I'm waiting for you! I'll talk about it tomorrow, I'm afraid of delaying things!"
"Say, what's the matter?"
"The person you want to check, I found it, she now lives in a small village on the outskirts of the city, she changed her name, and now her name is Ayako. She has a daughter. He is 23 years old. Clerk. ”
"Bring it to me and see," Akakawa heard that someone had found it, and he suddenly came to his senses!
Kobayashi handed the information in his hand to Akakawa. "Boss, this person shouldn't be the murderer, I checked her current situation, her husband is a worker in a fertilizer factory, and her daughter also works, and she worked as a beauty technician in a beauty salon some time ago, and she just quit her job during this time, if from the perspective of funds, she should not be short of money now. There are no elderly people or students in the family. There is no financial burden. Kobayashi added on the side.
"That's all?"
"Yes,"
Chichuan frowned when he heard this Xiaolin's addition, "Her daughter is 20 years old this year?"
"Yes. ”
No, no, if this girl is Ngawang and her illegitimate daughter, then this girl should be 25 years old. "Is there anything else? Check the girl's age, by the way, and who has this girl been in contact with lately......
Kobayashi trotted to the file, and Akakawa buried his body deep in the sofa alone. Lost in thought.
After Qingcheng decided to get engaged, Jiang Yuan and his wife began to prepare for the engagement banquet in full swing, in order to take care of Qingcheng's feelings, Jiang Yuan and Keiko decided that the engagement banquet would be arranged in Qingcheng's hotel.
In the next two days, Keiko first gave Qingcheng a sum of money and asked him to go and choose the items to be used on the day of the engagement, originally she wanted to accompany Qingcheng to buy these items, Qingcheng seemed to be very unhappy on his expression, he said, Xiao Q wants to buy these things together.
Keiko suddenly felt lost in her heart. After her son fell in love, the distance between him and her began to become more and more estranged.
For two days in a row, Jiang Yuan devoted his whole mind to the engagement banquet, and many of his previous good ideas could be fully displayed here. Even the colored valve at the entrance of the hotel has his own preferred angle. And Keiko is also carefully choosing the clothes to be used for the day.
As for notifying relatives and friends, Jiang Yuan felt that Qingcheng's engagement was a major event for the Jiang family, so he asked Qingcheng to call the elders in person. As for Jiang Yuan's friends and business partners, Jiang Yuan himself called to inform them. Keiko couldn't hold back the excitement in her heart, and she also notified her mother's family in person.
"Hey, is it big brother? It's me, Keiko, I'm calling to tell you something, my Qingcheng is going to get engaged tomorrow, if it's convenient for you, come and sit down...... Well, it's the other one, no, this family is okay, not as rich as that one, but compared to ordinary businessmen like us, they are much richer...... Yes, yes, when the time comes, you will be able to see it. ”
"Hey, is it Brother Tiger? My Keiko, Qingcheng is getting engaged tomorrow,...... Yes, yes, the family is not bad, anyway, richer than us...... Yes, in the future, Qingcheng won't have to worry about me,...... Yes, yes, come and sit down tomorrow! By the way, help me grow my eyes! Well, okay. ”
“……”
Keiko made a few phone calls in a row, and she felt that her throat was very dry, she didn't care about drinking saliva, and then, she happily dialed the phone of other relatives and friends, and in her memory, she seemed to have never talked with them on the phone for so long, and today they seem to talk a lot on the phone, and she feels a little overwhelmed.
Qingcheng returned to the hotel in the evening, and when he entered the door, he threw two beautifully packaged gift boxes to Keiko, "For you and Dad, remember to wear them tomorrow! ”
Keiko had already prepared the dress she was going to wear tomorrow, but now Xiao Q actually bought another one for herself, which made Keiko feel happy in her heart although she was prevaricating.
Keiko couldn't wait to open the bag, which is a very popular dress at the moment. In the past, even if Keiko had already stood in front of the counter, she would only take a symbolic look at it, and would not buy it home, for the simple reason that first, the price was indeed too expensive, and second, most of this dress was designed in one size, and it was difficult for a middle-aged woman like Keiko who had already made a fortune to wear it.
Keiko picked up the dress and quickly ran to a room on the third floor, changed into a dress, and in the dressing mirror in the room, Keiko realized that she could also wear a dress, and she could wear it so femininely. At that moment, her heart was very excited.
And Xiao Q prepared a Japanese-style suit for Jiang Yuan, and when this suit was worn on Jiang Yuan's old-fashioned body, Keiko couldn't help laughing! "It turns out that you can be fancy like this! I thought I could only see you like this in my life, you see, my daughter-in-law is still very capable, and all of a sudden, it makes you look like a person!"
The expression on Jiang Yuan's whole face was distorted in the mirror, and Keiko couldn't tell his mood from his demeanor, he didn't seem to like it, but he didn't show that he hated it.
On the day of the engagement, it was almost noon, Xiao Q said with a sad face, because his parents were busy with business, and they didn't have time to come from abroad. Her heart was quickly relieved.
Although Xiao Q's parents did not attend the engagement banquet, Xiao Q still invited a few relatives and friends, including Junko, Junko looks like she is not in a very good mood today, Keiko understands that Junko will feel uncomfortable, and it is reasonable, after all, a family like them can look at Qingcheng, it is purely an accident.
