Chapter 193: Greed
Before the Chinese New Year, when the old man had an accident, Xie Bin used to serve in front of the window and behind the bed, and most of the people knew Xie Bin. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ๏ฝiqugeใ infoEspecially now Xie Bin's fame is not small, occasionally acquaintances, one is passed on to two, two to four, everyone almost understands Xie Bin's identity, and is very polite to Xie Bin. Even if some people have opinions in their hearts, they don't dare to say it to their faces.
In fact, most people are still unkind to Xie Bin, and they are very grateful, they all know the situation of the old man. If it weren't for Xie Bin, these things would probably fall on some of them. When the time comes, do you say to help or not to help? Now Xie Bin's appearance just helped them solve this problem.
The only ones are Guoguo's two relatives, her aunt and uncle are full of prison and vigilance against Xie Bin. But on this occasion, so many people can't do anything when they look at them, just secretly pull their own little abacus in private.
Throughout the ages, there have been too many such things, from a small acre and a third of an acre of land in a poor peasant's house to a large number of miles of rivers and mountains in the royal court, which will always make some people peep, always feel that other people's should be their own, always feel comfortable when they take other people's in their own hands, and always feel that they get less than others.
It is nothing more than one word, "greed", greed has no size, and there is no satisfaction, and the so-called insatiable greed comes from this. Guoguo's aunt and uncle don't say what they want for the time being.
Xie Bin took Guoguo to thank the guests who came to mourn, regardless of men, women and children, they had to comfort Guoguo a few words, Guoguo also bent down with a heavy face to thank him, and everyone who watched was pitiful. There are also many people who want to adopt Guoguo, but in addition to Xie Bin, Guoguo's aunt and uncle are also unanimously opposed.
Everyone saw that Guoguo's aunt and uncle were there, so it was not easy to say anything, even if they knew their idea, there was no good way, after all, the name was there, if Guoguo's uncle and aunt were not qualified, others would be even less qualified.
Of course, if you really want to adopt Guoguo, there are actually many ways, but it depends on whether people are willing to do it.
On the third day, more people came, after all, the old man once served as the president of a certain university, and this influence was extraordinary, if the old man hadn't retired early, it was estimated that he would not have fallen to the current situation. The school where the old man once stayed also sent someone to send a big wreath, no matter how heavy his mind was, this meaning always came, at least to tell others, look, we have not forgotten Comrade so-and-so.
In addition, Jiang Guanghao's father also came, this time he didn't bring those reporters, but wore a black sรจ suit with the secretary and Jiang Guanghao, if you don't say that no one knows that this is the big leader of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province.
On such an occasion, it is impossible to say anything, a few polite words and then bow to the old man and leave, Xie Bin can't care so much, just make a look at Jiang Guanghao, and see Jiang Guanghao signaling that there is no problem, so he can relax his heart.
When the memorial service is over, the guests will also disperse, and they don't need to take care of the rest, anyway, Xie Bin is here. And the rest of the work is mainly in charge of the funeral home, as long as you spend money, from cremation to burial, everything can be handled for you.
When he was buried, there was a drizzle in the sky, and the only few students left, leaving only Song Zhenping watching from a short distance, and even Guoguo's aunt and uncle had already left.
Guoguo hugged the old man's big photo frame, crying tears, mixed with the dense rain, as if even God was crying sadly. Xie Bin himself was a little sad, he remembered that when his grandfather was buried, it was also raining, but it was much more rainy than here. At that time, Xie Bin, who was kneeling in front of the grave and being drenched in heavy rain, felt as if he had been abandoned.
Thinking of this, Xie Bin reached out to support Guoguo's shoulder, and then hugged it slightly, signaling that she didn't have to be afraid of him. Guoguo has been holding back her voice and not crying loudly for the past three days, but her big eyes have been crying, and they are swollen like two small walnuts.
Guoguo knelt silently in front of the old man's grave, pursed his lips and wept sadly, his little body seemed to be hidden by this dense drizzle at any time. Xie Bin stood not far behind him, and did not stop it, just watched. It's not a good thing for Guoguo to hold back like this, it's better to vent it or vent it. Xie Bin didn't want Guoguo to be like him and carry such a heavy burden early.
Song Zhenping quietly walked to Xie Bin's side and sighed in a low voice: "Alas, Lao Zhao has been in too much of a hurry in his life. โ
Xie Bin nodded, "I called him a few days ago, but I didn't expect ......"
Song Zhenping nodded, looked at Guoguo who was kneeling on the ground and asked in a low voice, "What about Guoguo?" Do you have any ideas? โ
Xie Bin smiled, "The old man has already instructed me to take care of Guoguo, since I agreed, I naturally will not regret it, I am prepared for this matter, but when I need to, I may have to let you go out of the town." "It is said that it is to let Song Zhenping town scene, which is not true, because Song Zhenping is really extraordinary.
Don't look at him now as just the owner of an antique shop, but a few years ago, he was still the mayor of a city in the north of the southern capital, at that time Song Zhenping had a bright future, and his career was bright, but he suddenly retired for some reason, and then opened an antique shop here. This matter has been rumored in Nandu for a long time, and there is anything to say anyway.
Until now, when people who know him talk about the former mayor, it is also a god with a hint of awe. These are also things that Xie Bin learned later, although he doesn't know the specific inside story, but as long as he knows that Song Zhenping is not an ordinary person, it is enough. After all, Xie Bin didn't have any friends in Nandu, and if he really asked someone to help, he could only find this former Mayor Song.
Xie Bin remembered that when he met Song Zhenping for the first time, he noticed that this person's bearing was extraordinary, but Xie Bin didn't care about it at that time, and the information about him was only known when he chatted with Old Man Zhao later.
However, asking Song Zhenping to come forward is only a second-hand preparation, Xie Bin has already made a proper arrangement in his heart, no accident, there should be no problem with Guoguo's affairs.
Song Zhenping naturally didn't have any opinions, but he looked at the god of Old Man Zhao's grave, which was very strange, and only sighed halfway, and said to Xie Bin: "Take Guoguo away, this girl has a heavy mind, and staying here for a long time is not good for her health." โ
Xie Bin nodded, but he was ready to take Guoguo back to the island city, and if he wanted to go to the grave to see the old man in the future, it would not be so easy and casual, and it would be nothing to let Guoguo miss more.
waited until Guoguo was tired of crying, Xie Bin took her little hand and pulled her up, reached out to touch the tears and rain on Guoguo's face, and said in a low voice: "Guoguo, let's go home first, and come to see your grandfather in two days, okay?" โ
Guoguo pursed her lips and nodded, she didn't dare to speak, she was afraid that she would cry again as soon as she opened her mouth.
When he arrived in the city, Song Zhenping arched his hand and said: "Brother, I'll go back to the store first, what do you have to do, just say that I can help my old Song is not ambiguous." โ
Xie Bin nodded, "Don't worry, I won't be polite to you if there is something, Brother Song walks slowly." โ
Song Zhenping was so atmospheric that he turned around and left. Xie Bin took Guoguo back to the house that now belonged to her, looking at the cold and deserted big house, Guoguo couldn't help but feel sad, hugged Xie Bin's waist and cried loudly, it seemed that only at home, by Xie Bin's side, she dared to vent her emotions unbridledly.
Xie Bin thought of the first night he stayed alone in two dilapidated tiled houses, and the feeling of sadness of being alone made him not be able to sleep for a long time, and he always felt that something was missing around him. Later, I rented a house to live, and it took a long time to get used to it.
Guoguo was tired of crying, so she hugged Xie Bin's arm and fell asleep. In the past three days, the girl barely closed her eyes, even sometimes when she took a nap, her tears could not stop flowing, and she was about to wake up in a short time.
Xie Bin quietly put Guoguo on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and took a stuffed bear into the crook of her arm and let her sleep in her arms.
After settling Guoguo, Xie Bin went to the balcony and called Chen Minhan, telling her that he would go back soon, and asked her to help make room for Guoguo, and buy some toys, snacks and school supplies.
Chen Minhan smiled: "Brother Bin, do you really plan to adopt a daughter?" โ
Xie Bin smiled, "What is impossible for my daughter, the law does not allow it, I am not yet old, and I don't meet any conditions, so I can only be adopted by my sister," After speaking, he instructed uneasily: "Don't forget, don't forget about this, in addition, you may have to help take care of her life at that time, after all, she is almost a big girl." โ
"Got it, my good brother Bin," Chen Minhanjiao said with a smile: "Brother Bin, you are always so caring, no wonder girls like you, and I haven't seen you treat boys like this." โ
Xie Bin coughed, "The main thing is that there are no boys around me, and besides, boys have to have the courage to take responsibility for things themselves, this is what a boy is, just like your brother, isn't he working hard now?" Hahaha, it's all my credit. โ
Chen Minhan snorted, "Bragging," but she couldn't deny Xie Bin's words, because her younger brother had been working very hard recently. Chen Minhan didn't know what Xie Bin had said to her brother at the beginning, but she probably learned from her mother's mouth that this matter was indeed related to Xie Bin. "Okay, you can bring your good sister back quickly, and we will see it as our own sister."
As he was talking, he heard the doorbell ringing, Xie Bin hung up the phone after a simple word, and when he opened the door, he saw that it was Xie Chengwen's mother and son, Xie Bin nodded and welcomed them in, "Auntie, you guys are here, hurry up and sit down, I haven't cleaned up anything, I'll get you two bottles of drinks." โ
Xie Chengwen's mother hurriedly stopped: "Xiao Xie, no need, I just explained the matter here to you, the keys, water and electricity bills, property fees, and some pocket money given by the old man, I have an account, you can check it." As he spoke, he took out two thousand yuan, and handed a small notebook to Xie Bin, along with two keys. (To be continued.) )
