Chapter Seventy-One: Zhuo Funeral Flowers
Chapter Seventy-One
"Dad, you're okay with your job?" An Ran looked at An Qing with some surprise, and he couldn't say what he felt in his heart.
On the one hand, she is happy that An Qing can return to work. But on the other hand, my father's hard work for so many years is also in my eyes, and the economy of the An family is quite rich, so it is not bad to change to an idle job.
But no matter what, seeing the heartfelt smile on An Qing's face, An Ran couldn't help but be happy for him.
"There is no problem with the work, and when the 11th holiday is over, I will preside over the work of the liaison office with Japan."
"Hey, it seems that I won't have a chance to go to concerts with you in the future......"
An's mother lay on An Ran's body in frustration and complained in frustration.
An Qing is rare to be such an adult, so he scratched his head and said with some shame: "I'm sorry, I will try my best to spend more time with you in the future." β
"Okay, I know you're a workaholic, and I already have this consciousness when I married you." An's mother waved her hand, indicating that she didn't believe his nonsense at all.
"By the way, Dad, what is the reason? Why did he originally say that he was going to transfer you away, but suddenly invited you back and was promoted? β
An Qing showed a hesitant expression, shook his head and sighed: "I don't know, I don't know where things have changed, and I have to investigate them well in the future." β
"Oh......"
Somehow, An Ran suddenly remembered Hou Shida's unequivocal promise in her boudoir that day. However, she then shook her head secretly, it couldn't be him, right? Hou Shida This is the first time to come to Dagang, how can there be so much energy?
If you want to interfere in Anqing's matter, at least you have to be a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee or a leader at the level of deputy mayor. Maybe which leader knew about this by chance, looking at Anqing's past hard work, he saw injustice and pulled out a knife to help?
Hey, it would be nice to know who is behind the scenes to keep Dad. An Ran thought a little melancholy, he must be a very powerful person, right? However, such a leader may not be a word of thanks, perhaps because of the concept or the implementation of the bottom line in his heart. But at least if you know who it is, you can feel better.
Enron didn't know that the hero behind all this had already taken the train to the west and left Dagang at this time.
In 2006, although the train from Dagang to Xiucheng has been upgraded to an air-conditioned express, it happened to coincide with the National Day holiday, and the number of people on the train was comparable to canned sardines.
After eight hours of hard work, Hou Shida finally got off the train in Xiucheng. However, at this time, outside the exit of the railway station, there was no one to pick him up in the crowd, and he returned to his hometown to hide from everyone's secret operation.
It was half past seven and almost eight o'clock when the train arrived at Xiucheng, and it was already night at this time in autumn. Hou Shida tightened the luggage in his hand, and finally stopped a taxi with great effort, and after getting in the car, he said an address, and then closed his eyes and recuperated.
Xiucheng is not a bustling big city, and there are not many cars on the road after 8 o'clock in the evening. The dim street lights illuminate the road and flash through the taxi window.
The taxi drove all the way out of the downtown area, and after more than ten minutes, it was already close to the outskirts of the city. Then turn onto a side road on the main road out of the city and drive into a neighborhood.
This is a community with good infrastructure construction, there are no high-rise buildings in the community, they are all two- and three-story single-family villas that are not close to each other. Judging from the cars parked in the community, it is obvious that this is a place where rich people gather.
Under the command of Hou Shida, the taxi slowly stopped at the door of a villa. He paid for the car, then jumped out of the car with a salute in his hand and walked towards the door of the villa.
A knock sounded from the silent neighborhood, followed by footsteps from inside the door, followed by a woman's inquiry.
"Sister, it's me, Hou Shida."
Hou Shida pointed his face at the cat's eye on the door, and asked the person inside the door to confirm his identity, and then the sound of the door opening was heard.
"Monkey, aren't you at school? Why did you come back today and didn't go to see your second aunt? Come on inβ"
The person who opened the door was a beautiful young woman in her thirties, with a mask on her face, and it was impossible to see what she looked like. But the pajamas she was wearing couldn't cover her figure at all. The concave and convex lines make an ordinary pajama wear a chic beauty. With every gesture, the inexplicable aura makes people know that she is a woman with a high quality of life.
"Sister, I'll do it myself." Hou Shida grabbed the luggage in his hand, looked left and right at the door, and then walked into the villa.
Hou Shida's sister's name is Zhuo Fuhua, the daughter of his mother's eldest sister, who is much older than him. Now not only is she married, but even her daughter is going to school. The living conditions of their family can be seen from the house they live in, and the living conditions are quite good. Brother-in-law Sun Xinghua is a businessman, and his business has become better and better over the years, so he simply let Zhuo Fu become a housewife after giving birth to a child.
"Monkey, what's wrong with you? Something happened at school? Have you ever been home? Zhuo Fuhua looked at Hou Shida's dusty face, and couldn't help but ask with some worry.
"No, I just got off the train and came over." Hou Shida changed his shoes and walked in, looked around and asked, "What about Miaomiao?" Slept so early? β
"I took her to Suizhong Hot Spring today, and I was crazy during the day, and I fell asleep in the car."
"Oh." Hou Shida nodded and said, "Originally, there was some work to be done in school eleventh, but it was completed relatively smoothly, I thought that there were still two or three days off, so it was better to come back and have a look." β
"Have you eaten? Sister, let's make you something to eat. β
"No, I ate on the train." Hou Shida hurriedly stopped her, and then suddenly asked, "By the way, sister, did any suspicious people appear near your house before I came?" β
"Suspicious people? What's wrong? Zhuo Fuhua heard his question, and quickly turned around in some fright.
Hou Shida had already thought of what to say on the way here, nodded pretending to be very serious, and said, "When I came over, I saw someone looking over here, and there seemed to be a mark made by someone on the door......
"Mark!"
Zhuo Fuhua was really a little frightened this time, and hurriedly ran to the door in slippers to open the door, and looked around. Sure enough, next to the door, she saw two triangles, one large and one small, opposite each other. This discovery made her a little frightened, and she hurriedly closed the door with a bang, and then put on two more locks with some anxiety.
"Monkey, what does that mark mean?"
Zhuo Fuhua is just an ordinary woman, and when she encounters this kind of thing, she instinctively wants to rely on men. What's more, since Hou Shida can find the mark, he should know something about it.
Hou Shida nodded, and said with a gloomy face: "The triangle is the meaning of a woman, one big and one small opposite, representing a mother and daughter." Sister, has your brother-in-law not been at home recently? β
"Yes! How do you know these uh? Zhuo Fuhua nodded, a little nervous about Hou Shida's accurate guess.
How does Hou Shida know? Does this need to be asked, the mark was drawn by himself at all, how to explain it is not he who has the final say?
"Someone must have observed it for a few days and saw that there was no man in the house, so he left a mark!"
"So, what to do ......"
Zhuo Fuhua is really at a loss now, if anyone is targeted by a thief, they will be scared, right? What's more, she is a weak woman with a daughter who is not even ten years old, and it is inevitable that she will panic when she encounters this kind of thing.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here!" Hou Shida patted his chest and said calmly: "The house can't be lived, don't be afraid of losing things, I'm afraid that the thief will come in and we will hurt people if we find out." In this way, we went to stay in the car for a while. There were people sneaking around your house when you came here just now, so maybe they're going to do it tonight. If someone does come, we will call the police immediately and drive out. If there is a car, the thief will definitely not be able to catch up. β
"Yes, it makes sense, I'm going to call Miaomiao up."
Zhuo Fuhua hurriedly woke her daughter up from the bed, and then put away all the valuable things in the house - even if her family had money, there was no reason to leave the money to the thief.
Fortunately, her family's car is not bad, the new BMW X5 bought in 2004 has run less than 10,000 kilometers, and the fur in the car is still the same as new. The interior of the SUV model is also spacious enough, Zhuo Fuhua hugged her daughter, wrapped in a blanket and kept looking outside. And Hou Shida sat in the driver's seat, calmly looking at the door of the villa.
The lights in the community are very weak, and the sky is already dark, if you don't walk directly to the car, you really can't find that there are people hiding in the car.
If Hou Shida's memory is good, it is that tonight, his sister Zhuo Fuhua will be forced to come to the door by the casino debt collectors. Even if the valuable things in the house were looted, it ended up causing the tragedy of the mother and daughter dying and disappearing.
But fortunately, he came early, and although it was already evening at eight o'clock, it was not suitable for criminal activities. He remembered clearly that it had happened in the middle of the night. There are still more than two hours, which is just the right time to recharge your batteries.
"Sister, you can sleep for a while, just keep an eye on me. If it's okay in the middle of the night, let's go to the city and find a hotel to deal with it for the night. β
Zhuo Fuhua had been playing for a day, and then she was frightened again. Now that he has Hou Shida as the backbone, he really feels a little unable to open his eyes. She nodded and said hesitantly: "Then I'll sleep for a while, monkey, don't be too tired, call me if you have something." β
Zhuo Fuhua was indeed tired, and she fell asleep quickly. She was dazed while holding her daughter, and she didn't know how long it was, when she suddenly felt that someone was pushing her!
"Sister, wake up!" In the dark car, Hou Shida did not look back, his eyes were firmly fixed on the door of the villa
