Chapter 319: It Turns Out to Be Really an Old Man
"I ...... I don't know......"
This time it was Ning Mei's turn to be speechless.
"What are you! Why don't you apologize to Mr. Fang? After Ning Wentao finished speaking, he turned to Fang Yang and said, "Mr. Fang, I'm sorry!" My daughter thinks you're sent by the gangsters, and she's mistaken about you! ”
Ning Mei glanced at Fang Yang, felt a little embarrassed, and said with a red face:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Fang! I got it wrong......"
Fang Yang smiled open-mindedly and said:
"It's okay, since it's a misunderstanding, it's okay to talk about it!"
Ning Wentao glared at Ning Mei, and said apologetically to Fang Yang:
"Mr. Fang, I'm really sorry for what happened last time, I should have told the police the truth, but Jia Dong found someone to threaten me. Even if I was killed by them when I was old, it was nothing, but they still threatened to hurt Xiaomei, and I had no choice but to say something against my will at the Public Security Bureau......"
"Dad......" Ning Mei's eyes also turned red.
Fang Yang says:
"Master Ning, I've already guessed that this is probably the case."
Ning Wentao said worriedly:
"Mr. Fang, I heard that Jia Dong also wanted to sue you for beating him, and also found many so-called eyewitnesses, and I didn't help you testify, will you ......?"
Fang Yang smiled and waved his hand and said:
"Master Ning, Jia Dong doesn't have to worry, I came here this time to ask you, would you like to come forward to testify against Jia Dong and his minions?"
"This ......" Ning Wentao guessed that Fang Yang must have come to the door for this matter, but he had already made it very clear just now, those people threatened him with his daughter, so they said that they didn't see anything against their will, but they didn't expect Fang Yang to still ask him to come forward to testify.
In front of Fang Yang, Ning Wentao was not easy to refuse, so he showed an embarrassed expression on his face.
Seeing this, Ning Mei said:
"Dad! You should stand up and fight against the forces of evil! Last time, you should have told the police comrade the truth about what you saw! No matter how rampant Jia Dong is, what can he do, Huaxia is still the world of the ruling party! It's a big deal that we will leave Rongcheng in the future, the world is so big, are we afraid that there will be no place for our father and daughter to live in peace? ”
Fang Yang patted his head and said:
"Master Ning, Ning Mei, blame me for not making this clear, it's like this, Jia Dong has been arrested by the police, not only Jia Dong, but also his father Jia Yongjun and other backbone elements of Jia Yongjun's criminal group have been arrested, including their biggest backer, Liang Jiaxiang, deputy secretary of the Municipal Legal Committee, has also been shuanggui. So I came here today to let you stand up and testify against Jia Dong, not only the incident of the pedestrian street that day, but also the things they harassed Ning Mei in the past, and the things that beat and threatened Master Ning later, you can truthfully report to the police! ”
Ning Wentao couldn't believe his ears, Jia Dong was like his nightmare, in order to force Ning Mei to comply, he made trouble with Ning Wentao in the name of administrative law enforcement every once in a while, and often found some thugs to threaten, Ning Wentao was about to be forced into schizophrenia by him, and now Fang Yang suddenly said that Jia Dong was arrested, and even his father, the famous army brother in Cangshui District, was arrested, Ning Wentao felt that this news was simply too shocking.
Seeing that Ning Wentao didn't speak, Fang Yang thought that he was suspicious of his words, so he continued:
"Master Ning, if you don't believe it, pay more attention to the news of Rongcheng in the past two days, and soon the news will be announced to the society!"
Ning Wentao hurriedly said:
"No, no, how could I not believe you! Mr. Fang, you've said it all, if I don't agree, it will be too inhuman. Don't worry, as long as the police come to me to understand the situation, I will definitely report all these things, and then I will contact the old neighbors in this area, many of them have been bullied by Jia Dong, and some have even been disabled, and we will go to testify against him together when the time comes! ”
Fang Yang said happily:
"Thank you so much, Master Ning!"
"Don't say that, you helped me last time, but I didn't even dare to testify for you, I'm sorry for you!" Ning Wentao said ashamedly.
Fang Yang said with a smile:
"Master Ning, that matter has passed, don't mention it in the future......"
At this time, the voice of the middle-aged woman who had just opened the door for Fang Yang came from the door:
"Old Ningtou, do you pay the rent? If I don't pay the rent, I'll be evicted! I don't run a welfare home, so I live on this little rent! ”
Ning Mei hurriedly greeted her and said:
"Aunt Hong, please give me a few more days! My dad was injured and couldn't go to work, and I never got a job...... Rest assured, we will pay the rent in a few days! ”
Aunt Hong pursed her lips and said:
"How many days have I been giving you pause? This rent has been delayed again and again, and it will be almost two months, and you haven't paid last month's rent yet! That's a bit of a stretch, isn't it? ”
Ning Mei said good things on the side, but Aunt Hong was unmoved, threatening to let their father and daughter move out if they didn't pay the rent today. Seeing this, Fang Yang stepped forward and asked:
"Auntie, how much should Master Ning pay for your rent?"
Aunt Hong looked at Fang Yang, took out a small notebook and opened it, and said while reading:
"The rent on his side is 800 yuan a month, and 2 months is 1,060 yuan, plus their water and electricity bills are 278 yuan and 6 cents, and the water and electricity share is 57 yuan and 4 cents, a total of 1,936 yuan."
Ning Mei hurriedly said:
"Aunt Hong, why are there so many water and electricity pools? There were two of us, and my dad and I barely used the communal water......"
Aunt Hong pouted and said:
"Since it is a public share, of course, everyone shares it together, and it is divided equally according to the head of the household!"
Ning Mei still wanted to argue a few words, but Fang Yang had already taken out her wallet, counted twenty hundred-yuan bills from it and handed them to Aunt Hong, saying:
"Auntie, I gave Master Ning's rent for him, here are two thousand yuan, you can count them!"
"How does this work?"
"How can you help us pay our rent?"
Ning Wentao and Ning Mei invariably opened their mouths to stop it, but Aunt Hong had already reached out and took the money in Fang Yang's hand with a smile, and counted it with her index finger dipped in saliva. She counted it twice, and after confirming that it was correct, she put the money away, and said with a smile:
"That's right, that's right! Young man, I don't have any change on hand, so the extra money will be counted as the rest of the month's utility bill, okay? When the time comes, more will be refunded and less will be compensated. ”
Fang Yang nodded indifferently, and Aunt Hong said happily:
"Xiaomei, your boyfriend is so generous, and you're still worried that you won't be able to pay the rent, really!"
With that, she grinned and twisted her ass and left.
"Aunt Hong, isn't he ......" Ning Mei said weakly behind her, then looked at Fang Yang with a slight blush, and said, "Mr. Fang, this money is borrowed from you, and I will pay you back as soon as I make money." ”
Fang Yang says:
"There's not a lot of money, it doesn't matter ......"
"That's not going to work! We are poor, but we can't ask for your money for nothing! Ning Mei said resolutely.
The two walked back to the room, Ning Wentao had already sat up with his body propped up, he looked at Fang Yang, and said excitedly:
"Mr. Fang, you have already helped us too much, how can we be embarrassed to let you help pay the rent! This is unacceptable! ”
Fang Yang waved his hand and said:
"Master Ning, there's not much money, is it? You don't have to talk about it all the time. Ning Mei also said just now, this money is what I lent you, and it will be good to pay me back when you have saved enough money in the future! ”
"Thank you, thank you......" Ning Wentao still thanked repeatedly.
At this time, Ning Mei suddenly asked:
"Mr. Fang, we ...... Have you seen it somewhere? ”
In fact, Ning Mei wanted to ask just now, she had a sense of déjà vu with Fang Yang, especially the back, which made Ning Mei feel very familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him.
Fang Yang also froze for a moment, and couldn't help but look at Ning Mei seriously, but he still didn't have any impression in his mind. In fact, as long as Fang Yang had met and had a little contact with someone, it was impossible for him to forget it, but he didn't dare to guarantee that Ning Mei had any intersection with the previous owner of this body before, after all, he had only been reborn for a few months, and the memory left by his predecessor was not so complete.
Therefore, Fang Yang said hesitantly:
"I'm not impressed, but...... Maybe, maybe we've seen it? ”
Ning Mei looked at Fang Yang again with a puzzled look, but still couldn't remember. Ning Wentao said on the side:
"Xiaomei, you can wash some fruit! Mr. Fang has been here for so long, he hasn't even drunk saliva! ”
"No, no." Fang Yang waved his hand and said.
Ning Mei walked out with a small fruit bowl as she said, and there was a public faucet outside. said that it was a few shriveled small apples, which looked like they had been put for many days, and it was estimated that Ning Mei bought them back for Ning Wentao, but he was reluctant to eat them.
Fang Yang walked to the small stool in front of Ning Wentao's bed and sat down, and asked:
"Master Ning, I heard that your accents are all locals, how can you rent a house here?"
Ning Wentao sighed and said:
"In the past, the family had a small house, but Xiaomei's mother had stomach cancer, so the house was sold in order to treat her, but the money spent hundreds of thousands, and the people did not keep it. Our father and daughter had no choice but to rent a house outside. In the past, the situation was a little better, I sold candy people and sugar paintings outside, how much can subsidize the family, Xiaomei graduated from university, and also entered the Rongcheng Evening News for an internship, she was very good, and soon signed an employment agreement with the newspaper, and after graduation, she officially went to work! ”
Speaking of this, Ning Wentao stretched out his hand and groped under the head of the bed, Fang Yang quickly stood up and asked:
"Master Ning, what are you looking for, I'll help you!"
"No need to ......," Ning Wentao said with difficulty.
He pulled out a newspaper from under his pillow, which was covered with a waterproof plastic film. Ning Wentao carefully took out the newspaper, pointed to a piece of report on it and said:
"This headline report was written by Xiaomei, and the exclusive photo was also taken by her, just because of this report, the sales of "Rongcheng Evening News" increased threefold that day, and I heard that the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee praised them!"
Fang Yang took the newspaper with some curiosity and looked at it, this was a copy of the "Rongcheng Evening News" on June 26 this year, and the headline was impressively written "A Lone Hero at 30,000 Feet in the Air"! Below the title is a big photo, which is the scene of Fang Yang's successful forced landing that day, followed by the crew to leave from the special passage under the escort of the special police, the photo only captured Fang Yang's back, but as a party, of course he can recognize himself at a glance.
The author of this report is none other than Ning Mei!
