The next day, the new year begins with the rising sunshine of the morning light.

At noon, Wu Xiaojun got rid of the fatigue of many days and woke up from a deep sleep.

Confused and stared at the room, but he was lying on the familiar Ning Pingping bed, and he heard the sound of stir-frying in the kitchen outside.

He reluctantly got dressed and got out of bed, quietly walked into the kitchen, and gently hugged Ning Pingping from behind.

Ning Pingping, who was frying braised pork, was suddenly hugged, and was shocked, the familiar voice in her ears and the man's breath on her body suddenly had a sweet sense of happiness, stopped the spatula in her hand, and said coquettishly, "Quietly like a ghost, okay, let go, I'm busy!" ”

"Pingping, you have so much delicious food, you smell it and you're greedy, why don't you call me, I'll give you a little help!"

"I came back last night and threw myself into bed, snoring like a dead pig, calling you, you must be able to wake up! There are two dishes left, and they will be good right away, hurry up and wash your face, they will all smoke people to death! ”

Wu Xiaojun came out of the kitchen, went to the bathroom to relieve himself, washed his face, looked in the mirror, and saw that his hair was unkempt, some of them had straightened up, and combed them with a comb a few times, but it didn't work at all, he lowered his head and sniffed his body gently, there was a strange smell, and suddenly remembered that these days in the mountains, there is no less dust and loess blown by the wind on his head, and there is no place to take a bath.

Secretly smiled bitterly, the smell on her body made even herself feel a little disgusting, no wonder Ning Pingping said that she was about to smoke people to death, and she couldn't imagine whether she was sleeping next to her.

Wu Xiaojun looked up in the bathroom, and at some point a water heater was installed on it, and gently opened the valve, releasing a little less water, and it felt hot, so he simply took off his clothes and took a hot shower in broad daylight.

Ning Pingping finished the meal, brought it to the table, heard the sound of running water in the bathroom, turned her face and glanced at it, shook her head and smiled, and shouted, "Xiaojun, what are you doing in there, it's been so long, you've come out to eat!" ”

"Right away, wait a minute!"

After about ten minutes, Wu Xiaojun walked out of the bathroom very energetically, came to the dining table and looked down, sniffed it with his nose again, and said with a smile, "Wow, it's really fragrant!" ”

"Okay, don't pretend to be amazed, hurry up and sit down and eat!"

"All right, obey the orders of Our Lady!"

Wu Xiaojun was really hungry, so he sat down and picked up chopsticks to eat the vegetables in a hurry.

Ning Pingping said with a smile, "Do you know what day it is?" ”

Wu Xiaojun replied while eating, "Know, know, I was released and released from the sea of suffering on the first day!" ”

Ning Pingping chuckled, "Silly, today is New Year's Day, the first day of the New Year!" ”

Wu Xiaojun raised his head suddenly when he heard this, put down the chopsticks in his hand, stared at Ning Pingping, and said suspiciously, "New Year's Day!" No, it won't, it's not long gone! ”

Ning Pingping saw that Wu Xiaojun really had no concept of time and space, and remembered the day wrongly, and said with a light smile, "You have diluted the concept of time in it, and it feels like a long, long time, in fact, it is just a few days, today is the beginning of the new year and a new day, I can be here to give you the wind and dust, you let me live a day that is no longer lonely and lonely, it is a good sign for me, and I am very happy in my heart!" ”

As soon as Wu Xiaojun heard that it was New Year's Day, Bai Lingyan was on vacation at home, but he was eating happily with the underground Qingren outside, he suddenly felt a sense of guilt in his heart, and immediately skipped a trace of nervousness and uneasiness on his face, and the speed of eating with his head on his head couldn't help but speed up, echoing Ning Pingping and said, "Well, good omen, good omen, you will definitely be able to have a smooth ride in the new year and be a competent and qualified leader!" ”

Ning Pingping looked at Wu Xiaojun's absent-minded appearance, and quipped, "Look at you really like you just came out of the trumpet, slow down, don't choke, and this soup, it's hot, don't be in a hurry to drink it!" ”

"Yes, yes, I can't drink hot porridge in a hurry, eat the vegetables first, well, this dish is so delicious, delicious, much better than the so-called chef in the restaurant, it's about to catch up with Bai Lingyan!"

Ning Pingping was happy in her heart, Wu Xiaojun suddenly said this, his face suddenly darkened, you and I are together, this is our private space, although I know that you are married and have a wife, but you can't ignore my feelings, when I am the happiest, open your mouth to mention how your wife is, isn't this forgetting to pour salt on my heart, hurting my self-esteem and feelings.

The more Ning Pingping thought about it, the more she felt a sense of humiliation, her heart rushed out, she couldn't help but stand up, and reached out to snatch the chopsticks from Wu Xiaojun's hand, "Don't eat, don't eat, kindly made you a lunch, it's better to feed the dog!" ”

After speaking, he threw the chopsticks to the ground with a "pop", hid his face and ran into the bedroom crying, and closed the door when he touched it.

The second monk who made Wu Xiaojun was confused, he was stunned, he was always happy, and he ate well, Ning Pingping, what's wrong, she suddenly got so angry, and she didn't do anything, could it be that her aunt came.

Wu Xiaojun racked his brains and thought about it hard, his face turned pale, and he slapped himself a few times fiercely, "It's all your broken mouth talking nonsense, talking nonsense, which pot is not opened!" Broke someone's heart! ”

After all, he lost his words first, swept Ning Pingping's excitement, and Wu Xiaojun couldn't eat it anymore, so he came to Ning Pingping's bedroom door uneasily, and said in a trembling voice, "Pingping, it's me who is not good, are you okay to come out?" ”

Ning Pingping said angrily inside, "Get out, hurry up and go back to see your wife, go as far as possible, I don't want to see you again!" ”

Wu Xiaojun apologized repeatedly, "Pingping, don't get me wrong, I was wrong, I shouldn't make you angry with my words, forgive me, I beg you!" Let me in, okay! ”

Ning Pingping scolded nonchalantly, "You're not a thing, don't come over to bother me!" ”

Wu Xiaojun said lightly, "Look, I didn't mean to, so I wouldn't get so angry for a word, I'm going in!" As he spoke, he pushed the door hard, and the door slammed open, and he walked in directly.

Ning Pingping looked forward to it for a long time, and finally the two met, but Wu Xiaojun's words were like pouring a basin of cold water on his head.

Wu Xiaojun stepped forward and pulled Ning Pingping by the hand, put his hands on his shoulders to make her sit up straight on the edge of the bed, raised one of her hands, put it on his face, and laughed, "Baby, it's me who is not good, make you angry, I should be damned, I should be beaten, come on, slap me a few times, hit hard, no, I should tear my stinky mouth apart!" As long as you can take your breath off, you can do anything! ”

Ning Pingping looked at Wu Xiaojun's troubled appearance, couldn't help but burst out laughing, pushed Wu Xiaojun's hand away, raised her leg and kicked him lightly a few times, and said with a red face, "You are so bad, you bully me, make me angry, I am so messy, don't bother me, look at your wife!" ”

Wu Xiaojun saw Ning Pingping burst into tears and laughed, sat down beside her, took her hand and said with a smile, "I won't go anywhere today, just stay at home with my wife!" ”

Ning Pingping said coquettishly with a shy face, "Who is your wife!" I'm not uncommon with things that don't have a conscience, and I get upset when I look at you! ”

Wu Xiaojun bent over, holding Ning Pingping's pretty face with rain with both hands, shook it gently, wiped away the aggrieved tears on her face, and said with a smile, "I'm your husband, you're not rare, who is rare!" As he spoke, he grimaced and pushed Ning Pingping to her cheeks, and her thick lips kissed deeply on her cheeks.

………………

On the night of the second day of the fire, Bai Lingyan received a pager from Wu Xiaojun's father, and Wu Xiaojun had to answer the phone in person.

Bai Lingyan explained to the old father for a long time, but the old father just didn't believe it, insisted that Wu Xiaojun had an accident, and angrily complained that Bai Lingyan didn't take good care of Wu Xiaojun, and was deliberately hiding him when something happened, which made Bai Lingyan feel both crying and laughing, and really helpless, no matter what she said, it couldn't be explained, so she simply hung up the phone.

As a result, on the afternoon of the third day, Wu Xiaojun's father, Wu Pingshun, rushed from his hometown to Xingshi to ask about the crime, and asked Wu Xiaojun where he was and whether something really happened.

In the past, when Wu Xiaosen was in school in Pingxi, there was a rumor that Wu Xiaosen fell into the river and died, and he did not tell his family if he did not finish the matter, and then notified his family to get the urn after the end of the qiē.

Later, Wu Pingshun was very uneasy, and went to school with his third brother in person, but Wu Xiaosen was watching an open-air movie at school with his classmates, and he didn't know that there was such a thing.

Although it was a false alarm, it had deeply buried an indelible shadow in his heart, and when someone in the family had an accident, the tense atmosphere in the family at that time appeared in front of Wu Pingshun's eyes, and his heart suddenly clenched together.

Bai Lingyan was not surprised by Wu Pingshun's sudden arrival, she had some understanding of Wu Pingshun's temper and personality, and the old man was mainly worried about his youngest son Wu Xiaojun, but it added a lot of pressure to Bai Lingyan.

Wu Pingshun couldn't see Wu Xiaojun, he couldn't rest assured, he always thought about the worst, and went to the city hospital early in the morning to see President Fu and Secretary Sun, listening to the two leaders' statements and Bai Lingyan's same, ten comrades from the hospital went to the funeral home to participate in the aftermath of the victims, including Lu Jianmin, who calmed down a little, and then went to the vicinity of the ancient capital commercial building for a turn, because of the cordon around him, he couldn't go in, so he returned to Wu Xiaojun's house with a sigh of relief.

Because Wu Pingshun couldn't hide things in his heart, he stayed at home and didn't go out, didn't do anything except watch TV, and couldn't even eat a few bites of every meal, which made Bai Lingyan feel very embarrassed, and only hoped that Wu Xiaojun would come back soon.

During this time, the most talked about in the streets and alleys was the fire in the ancient capital commercial building, all kinds of rumors, various versions were flying all over the sky, how the fire was caused, how many people died and other doubts were the most concentrated, although the official guò media repeatedly publicized and explained, but no one believed it, and the rumors were more mysterious.

Although four or five hundred young people were burned to death in this fire, the big boss behind the culprit had a very deep background, and some people from above exerted pressure, and the local government and officials could not afford to provoke them, so they deliberately concealed the cause of the accident and the number of deaths, and relied on the police to suppress the doubts of the victims' families, and dozens of people who had gone to the streets to make wishes.

The fire not only burned hundreds of innocent people, but also burned down the entire Pingxi Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, the mayor was paralyzed with fright, after the fire broke out that night with gold bars to Kyoto to find someone to accommodate, when he got on the train, his legs were weak, his handbag was opened, and the gold bars in it were scattered to the ground, and he didn't find them all for about ten minutes, and the three were snatched away by the lonely souls who died unjustly in the fire.
