Chapter 18: The Youngest Son

The two of them didn't eat enough, even if they were half-starved, they were not very comfortable eating, and now facing the hot and fragrant beef noodles, He Ning felt as if he had never eaten at all, and his stomach was empty, and he finally had a bowl of noodles, which made him feel a lot more comfortable. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Regardless of whether it is delicious or not, I would like to thank Comrade Dong Weibin for helping us both open our eyes, and it can be regarded as a not very successful foreign meat, let's wish Comrade Dong Weibin a happy card here!" He Ning had almost eaten and felt very comfortable, so he jokingly picked up the bowl of noodle soup in front of him, as if it was a bowl of wine, and gestured to the tonics, "It's a pity, I don't know how much he was pitted." ”

"Counting his own pasta, it's a total of 1,865 pieces." Tonic replied very firmly, and by the way, he also picked up his bowl of noodle soup and touched it with He Ning's bowl.

He Ning couldn't hold back, he laughed out loud, his hand trembled, and the noodle soup in the bowl came out directly with the shaking of the bowl, spilling onto Tonic Li's hand, wetting his cuffs a little, He Ning hurriedly tried to hold back a smile, put down the bowl in his hand, took out a few tissues from the box on the side, took Tonic Li's hand, and quickly helped him wipe the soup on the back of his hand, wrist and sleeve.

"I really didn't expect you to be such a person, you look honest on the surface, but in fact, there are so many ghost ideas, this kind of thing can be remembered clearly by you!" He Ning couldn't help but laugh.

It's no wonder that when he had just ordered, Dong Weibin was busy saying that he only needed a pasta, not a set meal, if he was really forced to choose a set meal, the price of this meal would rise again.

Tonic was held by her hand, and the expression on his face was slightly unnatural, but he just smiled and didn't speak.

After eating the noodles, considering that the time was not early, the two of them did not delay any longer, and when checking out, He Ning insisted that she pay for the two bowls of noodles, on the grounds that Tonic had already helped her a lot today, so she should "invest in 'being an accomplice' and repay it with beef noodles".

Tonic didn't push too much with her, after all, two bowls of noodles are not worth a few dollars, the two of them paid for the noodles and left the small noodle restaurant, Tonic drove He Ning back to his residence as usual, and when he got downstairs, before He Ning was about to get out of the car, he stopped He Ning again, He Ning saw that his expression was very serious, so he stopped and got out of the car and looked at him seriously.

"That Dong Weibin, don't take it too lightly, beware of him being annoyed and angry." Tang Li was not so careless about Dong Weibin, so he cautiously reminded He Ning, "Selfish people don't introspect, even if they make a loss, they may not be willing to suffer, and when the dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, the practice may be more disgraceful." ”

"Well, don't worry, I know it." He Ning nodded.

"As long as you can trust me, don't hesitate to speak up about anything." Tonic was not at ease and said again.

He Ning laughed when he heard this: "If you can't believe it, I don't know who else to believe." ”

Hearing her say this, Tonic Li's originally tense facial lines relaxed a little, the two said goodbye, He Ning got out of the car and went upstairs, went back to his residence to rest, and Tonic drove home.

Early the next morning, He Ning originally wanted to continue the investigation work of the previous day directly with Tang Li, and continue to investigate He Zhiwen, but after opening her eyes early in the morning, she suddenly remembered that what cassette stove and what small silver pot Dong Weibin moved the night before were still thrown on her desk, if they didn't go back to the bureau and went directly to the vicinity of He Zhiwen's residence, those things might have to be placed on the desk all the time, and it was naturally very strange for those things to appear in the office. How others would guess when they saw it, He Ning didn't know, and she didn't want to know, so she sent a letter to Tang Li early in the morning, saying that she would go to the public security bureau first, and the two of them would meet at the gate of the bureau, and then hurriedly went out to take the car to the unit.

She had already hurried enough, and when she arrived at the office, she still found that someone had arrived earlier than herself, Tang Hongye and Fang Yuan were both looking at the few things on He Ning's desk with some curiosity.

"What's the matter, He Ning, you were cooking a silver pot in the office the day before?" As soon as Tang Hongye saw He Ning coming in from outside, he immediately expressed his dissatisfaction, "Don't take me either!" Not interesting enough! ”

"If she eats a silver pot, can she still be a pot and a stove here?" Fang Yuan felt that Tang Hongye's words were unreliable, and he couldn't help but laugh and reminded the people who were busy protesting over there.

"That's it, it's still our family that understands me!" He Ning nodded, pointed to the things on the table, and said to Tang Hongye, "If you fancy this stove and silver pot, take it away!" It's all for you! ”

"Take me away, but I'll say hello first, it's not like I take it for myself, I'll put it away, and keep it for any of us to work overtime to drive a night train or be on night shift, and we can use it if we want to eat something hot, or cook a noodle or something." Tang Hongye was not polite to He Ning, and generously picked him up and left.

After he left, Fang Yuan was not so easy to change the topic, she grabbed He Ning and asked her in a low voice: "There are many inexplicable cassette stoves and small silver pots on your table, as well as your favorite tomato stewed beef brisket in that store in City C...... Did Dong Weibin come to us to find you? ”

He Ning didn't plan to hide it from Fang Yuan on purpose, now that she guessed it, there was no need to hide it from her, so she told Fang Yuan what happened the day before and how she dealt with it.

Fang Yuan couldn't help but laugh after hearing this, and after He Ning finished speaking, she couldn't help but smile, nodded, and gave He Ning a thumbs up: "Well done!" It's still your ruthless move! Dong Weibin is a kind of person, if you scold him, it doesn't matter if you stink him from head to foot, just his kind of cheek, as soon as you turn your head, you can think that your kind of scolding of him is a manifestation of resentment against him, resentment, it is equivalent to having feelings, because there is love to hate! At least it shows that you still care about him, anyway, he is thick-skinned, and there is no substantial loss in scolding, maybe he will really become more and more frustrated, and feel that he has gained some motivation from you! ”

"But isn't it, I had an upset stomach before, and I lost a few pounds of scales, and this person was embarrassed to put gold on his face, and the meaning of the words felt as if I was separated from him, so I was hiding in a foreign land and was sad and haggard!" When He Ning thought of Dong Weibin's self-righteous appearance, he felt angry and funny.

"Phew, just him? Worthy too?! Fang Yuan was originally a girl with a strong sense of justice, she and He Ning have been the closest friends since they were students, how Dong Weibin showed favor in a different way, and tried every means to please He Ning, she saw these in her eyes, and because of this, after Dong Weibin in order to climb the high branches, he denied the relationship with He Ning cleanly, and the most hateful thing was that he also beat a rake, and he opened his eyes and said nonsense What is He Ning sticking to himself, chasing himself, When she first found out about this, Fang Yuan was almost angry, if He Ning hadn't stopped her, she wanted to go and scold Dong Weibin fiercely immediately. It's good now, as soon as he heard that Dong Weibin stole chickens and rice, Fang Yuan felt very refreshed, not to mention how comfortable he felt in his heart.

"Okay, such disgusting people and things, let's not talk about them early in the morning! Tell me, why did you come so early this morning? What about Dai Xu? He Ning turned over the topic about Dong Weibin, not wanting to say more, he felt like he was bored if he talked too much, so he turned the topic to Fang Yuan and her boyfriend Dai Xu.

"He was on the night shift last night, and I got up early this morning, and I stayed and stayed there, so I made some breakfast," Fang Yuan said as he walked to his table and took out a large lunch box with many sliced sandwiches inside, "Did you have breakfast?" If you don't eat it, I'll make a lot of it here, so you can eat some by the way! ”

"I won't eat it, if I finish the love sandwich made by Xiao Fangyuan, and I don't have enough to wear it back, then my sin will be great!" He Ning smiled and joked at Fang Yuan, while dodging Fang Yuan's itching attack, he took out the mobile phone that had just rang from the pocket of his clothes, and looked at the number on it, "Okay, okay, okay, I won't mess with you, Tonic is downstairs, I have to hurry down, the two of us have a lot of things to do today!" ”

After speaking, she waved her hand at Fang Yuan, and went downstairs at a trot, Tang Li's car was already waiting there, after He Ning got into the car, the two of them drove straight to the family residential area of the state-owned enterprise, planning to visit He Zhiwen in a targeted manner near his residence, and by the way, squatting to guard He Zhiwen himself.

It was still early, and neither of them had breakfast, but they were not in a hurry to solve it on the road, but after going to the vicinity of He Zhiwen's house, they found a small breakfast shop that seemed to have been open for some years, and Tonic asked for a bowl of wontons and two buns, and He Ning chose fritters and soy milk, and the two of them sat down and ate slowly, because it was past the rush hour of going to work and school, so there were not many people in the breakfast shop, and the only few customers except He Ning and Tonic also finished eating and left, The old shopkeeper, who looked to be almost seventy years old, gathered at the table of Tang Li and Hening and chatted with them.

"Is it the first time you two have breakfast at our house?" Although the old man was asking, he was very sure of this fact in his tone, and while asking, he also looked at He Ning and Tang Li curiously, "Little couple? Just moved here to live nearby? There are many old neighborhoods in our area, and there are few who moved here later, so you can see it. ”

"Yes, we only rented a room here recently," He Ning said to the old man with a smile, and pointed to Tang Li sitting opposite him as he spoke, "The main thing is that he just jumped to work in the company here, isn't this not officially reported yet, let's rent a house first, and get familiar with the environment." ”

"Oh, no wonder," the uncle nodded clearly, but with a little puzzlement, "But, you guys are also quite interesting, just such a half-dead company, what are you doing here?" Is there some shadowless pie painted in the factory? Don't tell you the truth, I used to be this factory, I think I was not so old before, the efficiency of this factory is still very good, since the second half of the nineties began to go downhill, a year is not as good as a year, you, think about it again, I am a person from the past, do not say anything to you. ”

"That's an exaggeration!" He Ning listened to the old man's words, and seemed to be a little surprised, "The two of us have been looking for a house and renting a house in this neighborhood for the past two days, and I feel that the atmosphere of life in this neighborhood is very strong, and it feels very lively, and everyone is very happy, and I thought that it must be that the factory has good benefits, and the big river is full of water and small rivers!" ”

"If you want to talk about the big river, there must be more or less water, but it's hard to say if you don't get to the small river," the old man smiled secretly, "Is this life, happy is also a day, unhappy is also a day, if you have money, you have to be poor and happy, don't you!" Otherwise, they're all dead, then don't live. ”

"Well, I think the enthusiasm of the residents in this neighborhood is quite high," He Ning echoed casually, and then tentatively opened his mouth without a trace, "The two of us saw someone raising a monkey in the neighborhood yesterday!" It's so interesting, there are many people who have dogs this year, it's not uncommon, and I've seen cats and rabbits, but it's really rare to go out and walk monkeys, and I've seen it coldly, it's really interesting! ”

"Monkeys?" The old man was stunned for a moment, "I really haven't seen this before!" Where did you meet it? ”

The old man's reaction was a bit unexpected by He Ning and Tang Li, they thought that why Zhiwen raised monkeys, more or less also needed to take the monkey out for a walk or something, at least they had to let the monkey go out to let the wind go out by himself, after all, the monkey kind of thing, locked in the house all day long, may not be able to manage it, so the surrounding residents will inevitably see it, never thought that the old shopkeeper seems to have no idea that there is a monkey around here.

"It's right around the market." Tonic casually mentioned a location that they were more familiar with in the past two days.

"Near the small vegetable market...... the old man thought about it, as if he knew something, and nodded slowly, "Oh...... If you're not mistaken, if there are monkeys, then I might know whose house it is! Nine times out of ten, it was the unsuccessful youngest son of an old colleague in our former factory. ”

"That's not a young man." He Ning deliberately pretended to be stupid.

The old man snorted and laughed, and looked at He Ning: "Little girl, my old colleague's unsuccessful little son is not small for you, but not big for me!" ”
