Chapter 254: On the Prodigal Bridge
Qin Hu stared at the rows of A heroin. Said hatefully: "I thought it was a cash antique or something. I didn't expect it to be something like this."
Ah Nian looked at him. Look at Qin Yan again. Tentatively asked, "Let's call the police."
I heard that I was going to call the police. Little Red's body shook. The good thing is that everyone's attention is on those heroins. No one noticed this subtle change in her mood.
Qin Hu's eyes never left those things. He licked his dry lips. Saying to himself, he calculated: "These things weigh 250 grams a piece. There are 36 blocks here. That's a total of 9000 grams. Sell at the price of 100 yuan 1 gram. You can buy 900,000 yuan."
Looking at the slightly excited look on his face. Qin Yan was taken aback. She went out on the balcony and found an old snakeskin bag. Walked in and put all these laundry soap-sized things in a bag.
Qin Hu snatched the bag and asked, "What are you going to do?"
"Throw it away."
"Throw it away. That's a treasure worth 900,000 yuan."
"Have you forgotten how our mom and dad died?"
Qin Yan snatched the bag. Said to Ah Nian and Xiaohong, "Let's go."
Qin Hu grabbed the corner of the bag. Snatch the bag away.
Qin Yan said viciously: "If you rob me again, you will shout loudly. When the police come, you can't even be the owner of the pawnshop."
I heard that the police were going to be called. Little Red's body trembled with fear. also helped persuade him: "Brother. Let's throw it away."
Qin Hu reluctantly let go of his hand. A butt slumped in a chair.
The three of them got into the van where Ah Nian delivered the express mail. Ah Nian holds the steering wheel in his hand. Ask: "Where are you going?"
Qin Yan said: "The Bridge of the Prodigal Son"
The Prodigal Bridge is a historic stone arch bridge of green jade.
Legend has it that 300 years ago there lived a young couple by the river. The husband has exhausted the family wealth because of opium smoking. In order to avoid creditors. Crossing the river on a dark night and falling into a foreign land. For a livelihood. The wife had to be a "washerwoman" to go to the river to do laundry. The Dragon Mother of Xijiang took pity on her suffering. A pearl of the night that splashes the water droplets of the pulp washed dragon clothes. Put it in the water tank of her house. The washerwoman follows the dream of the Mother of Dragons. Sold the night pearl to pay off the debts for her husband. With the remaining money, a stone arch bridge was built over the river. Soon. The husband came from this stone bridge. Returned to her. Painful change. Husband and wife love each other and grow old together.
Therefore, people call this ancient bridge "Prodigal Bridge".
The Prodigal Bridge is on the north side of the green jade. It is more than ten kilometers away from Qin's house. It is in a marginalized area by the county's construction plan. The road is in disrepair. It's not easy to walk. Ah Nian drove for twenty minutes before he came to the bridge.
The car drove to the center of the bridge. Qin Yan suddenly shouted: "Stop"
After the car is stopped. She came to the railing of the bridge with a bag. Look around without people. Open the bag. Threw the bag into the river.
There was a splash on the surface of the river. It didn't take long for calm to regain its calm. Autumn breeze blowing across the water. The surface of the river ripples.
Ah Nian happily hugged Qin Yan's shoulders. Probe together and look at the river flowing into the distance.
Xiaohong grabbed Qin Yan's hand on the other side. Probe looking at the water under the bridge. Sharing their happiness.
On the way back. Qin Yan sat in the passenger seat. From time to time she looked back at the quiet "Prodigal Bridge" until the car turned a bay.
She didn't see it. Almost at the same time as the van turned a corner. A man wades from the shore under the bridge into the river. Cautiously approach the place where the bag just fell into the water. Bent down......
Ah Nian drove the van back along the road from which he came.
He looked at Qin Yan with appreciative eyes from time to time. Look at her embarrassed.
"Look at you. It's weird to look at people. As if I didn't know him."
Xiaohong listened. Sneering in the back seat.
Ah Nian said, "Yes. For the first time, I also found out that I was married to a modern version of a chivalrous woman. Tell me. Why did you choose to throw the drugs away. Instead of handing them over to the police"
"More than ten years have passed since Mom's and Dad's case. Over time. The neighborhood has long been forgotten. They have seen us with normal eyes. Once the police intervene in the matter. Let them know. It will rekindle their memories. I don't want those chilling eyes to fall on our siblings again. I don't want to hurt you and Xiaohong......"
Ah Nian can hear it. There was a faint desolation in her tone.
He grabbed the steering wheel with one hand. A free hand patted her arm.
Xiaohong asked in the back, "Why don't you let Brother Qin Hu come with you."
"I'm afraid he'll jump into the river with those things."
Everyone in the car laughed.
Red is still worried, "What if he doesn't believe you threw something into the river."
Qin Yan said, "That's why I called you here to testify."
"Can he believe it?"
"He will believe what you say"
Red thinks they know something. His face turned red.
Back home. I didn't see my younger brother Qin Hu.
Qin Yan muttered dissatisfiedly: "I also have to call the police station, the funeral home, the community, and do the aftermath of the funeral. Where has he been again?"
Take care of the old grandmother's funeral. I made the "first seven" for the elderly.
Xiaohong called Wang Bin: "I want to go to you"
Wang Bin's tone was a little nervous: "I'll be back in ten or eight days. What do you come to do. Don't come."
"It's not like it's okay. Let me come back to take care of Aunt Feng. Why did you change your mind again?"
"Aren't you filial piety now? Can't live in our house. I don't have anything. It's worried about grandpa and they're not happy......"
Half of what Wang Bin said was true. Compared with the "little witch" from a wealthy family, grandpa and mother don't want to see Xiaohong.
Xiaohong replied: "I can stay in a hotel"
"The hostel here is dirty. There are a lot of people who don't ......."
"Then I'll stay in a star-rated hotel. I have money."
Wang Bin got a bank card for her when he left. I put 10,000 dollars in it. She took out 5,000 yuan for her grandmother's funeral. Kari has five thousand dollars left.
She's going to go to W City. Wang Bin told Qin Yan that he had no place to live.
Qin Yan said: "That's what he said. Nonsense. He can't live in his house with ten or eight girls like you......"
Xiaohong was taken aback: "They have so many houses."
Qin Yan looked at her in astonishment: "He didn't tell you."
"Told. His grandfather, his parents, and him all run companies......"
"That's all he tells you."
"Yes."
Qin Yan scrutinized her carefully. It's not like it's lying.
She sighed and said, "You little girl. I've been 'sleeping' with him for more than half a year. I didn't even figure out what he was doing at home."
Little Red's face turned red into a "red shell egg" again.
She said shyly, "Sister. Didn't I tell you. We don't have those things......"
"Don't talk about that. You'd better hurry up and have a look. Maybe ......"
Qin Yan's gaze was full of worry.
Xiaohong said, "You haven't told me yet. What did Wang Bin's grandfather and parents do?"
Qin Yan gave her a blank look. Haven't you been to his house. You can't even see it.
"Their family seems to be rich"
"It's not like. Yes, really. Not very rich either. It's very, very much money."
"Very, very much, a lot."
"Billions or tens of billions"
Xiaohong didn't believe Qin Yan's words.
