Chapter Twenty-Nine: Chips and Bets

After listening to Dai Xu's words, Fang Yuan suddenly fell silent, and after a while, he sighed: "Think about it, I really feel that Ke Xiaowen is really pitiful, Ke Li can't say that he doesn't care about him or is not good, but he is too careless, he doesn't ask about many things, his biological mother Hong Qing only thinks about herself in her heart, for Ke Xiaowen himself, she doesn't really care about it at all, Wu Shuqin's side doesn't need to be said, let's look at what we have learned, There is not even the slightest evidence that can make people barely feel that she is good to Ke Xiaowen, but then again, just like Wu Shuqin advertised when she quarreled just now, her biological mother can't do it, so why should she expect her stepmother? But the worst thing is that there is a bully Wu Xuehai outside the house. ”

Dai Xu gently patted Fang Yuan's shoulder, didn't say anything, was silent for a while, and suddenly said to her, "After work tonight, I'll take you to eat pizza, right?" Do you want to go? It's nice to have a shop. ”

"Okay," Fang Yuan didn't know why he suddenly diverted the topic to dinner that he couldn't even beat, but he still readily agreed, "But I thought you'd want to eat a hamburger." ”

You know, Dai Xu is a well-known hamburger maniac in the criminal police team, if no one stops him, he can eat a variety of different flavors of burgers almost every day, although others think that the thing is the same regardless of whether there is a chicken patty or a beef patty in the middle, but Dai Xu never gets tired of eating, and it is said that in the past, as long as he squeezed time to eat something in the middle of work, he would try his best to abduct the people around him to eat burgers. So every time he said the word hamburger, even his good buddy Zhong Han would go crazy for the first time.

However, after Fang Yuan said this, she quickly realized that it seemed that she had returned to work at the Public Security Bureau. Because the two of them are roommates in addition to their work partners, they get together for three meals a day most of the time, but whether it is at home or at work, Dai Xu does not often pull himself to eat hamburgers, and Fang Yuan himself also lets her eat hamburgers. She is not disgusted, but she will definitely get tired of eating too much, and she was a little worried about whether it would be because she had been with Dai Xu for a long time. Later, when I saw the hamburger, I felt sick to my stomach, but I didn't expect that he was much more restrained in front of him, and the type of food for the two of them was still quite rich.

Dai Xu listened to her question. Hehe smiled. said: "I won't refuse to eat burgers at any time, but forget it today, I don't think the burgers are 'garbage' enough." ”

"'Garbage' level?" Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment when he heard this word, "What do you mean?" ”

"When people are in a low mood, they are often the most soothing food. All of them have a good taste and are high in calories. The nutritional content is relatively simple, which is the so-called junk food," Dai Xu explained to her the reason for this, "Although the burger is quite delicious to me, it is still a little worse than pizza with a lot of cheese, so let's just do it in one step today and eat the most ruthless!" ”

Fang Yuan immediately understood what Dai Xu meant, there was an indescribable feeling in his heart, it was moved, it was not pure, it was sad, it was not complete, all kinds of emotions were like red, green, black and white beans that were stirred together, they couldn't be distinguished, they couldn't be picked cleanly, so she just nodded, and didn't say anything.

Later, the others went back and forth one after another, and almost as soon as they entered the door, they were startled by the big fruit basket on the empty table, and asked Dai Xu and Fang Yuan, who had just come back from going out to run errands, and after figuring out what was going on, they were also angry and funny, but since Hong Qing had left the fruit basket behind, he didn't go back yet, and he put it there until the fruit rotted, which was also hypocritical, so everyone simply saw that they had a share, and they beat their teeth, and even the people in other offices heard about it, There are also those who are usually more familiar, running over to rub fruits to eat, and after an afternoon's effort, a big fruit basket is really only a veritable fruit basket.

Tang Hongye was free when he got off work, took one that he didn't have time to eat before, took the apple in the drawer in advance and washed it, sat on the seat and sighed while gnawing: "What do you call this, I used to just say that the snipe and the clam competed, and the fisherman profited, and I really haven't seen such a good thing with my own eyes, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, I was actually caught up by Lao Dai you!" This stepmother and biological mother don't have any clues, compared to the competition to buy fruit baskets, hehe, this is the first time I've heard of this kind of thing. But that Hong Qing is too, it would be nice for her to buy a big one, why do you have to stuff Wu Shuqin's small one back! Look at how many hungry wolves there are in our bureau! If it weren't for my quick eyes and thoughtful thinking, I guess I wouldn't even be able to catch this apple now, and it would have been divided! ”

Dai Xu smiled and said: "I think ah, if Hong Qing really throws back the fruit basket that Wu Shuqin bought, and Wu Shuqin also knows about it, it will be better, although they all get a basket of fruits for nothing, but the difference here is still quite big, eating a few fruits from Hong Qing is better than eating Wu Shuqin's fruits." ”

"Why is that?" Tang Hongye gnawed on a mouthful of apples, and his brain didn't turn around all of a sudden.

"Because the two of them have different purposes," Dai Xu replied, "In contrast, although Hong Qing's fruit basket is larger and more expensive, her motive is relatively simple, that is, as Ke Xiaowen's biological mother, she can overpower Wu Shuqin, the stepmother, in terms of expressing concern about the child's accident, how can it be reflected?" Naturally, Wu Shuqin bought a fruit basket to comfort the police in charge of investigating the case, so she, as the biological mother, bought a bigger and more expensive one, which can show that the birth mother is different. So in the final analysis, she bought a fruit basket for us, and it seemed that it was those of us who ate fruit that benefited, but in fact, the person she wanted to defeat was Wu Shuqin. ”

"Then if according to your meaning, Wu Shuqin buys a fruit basket, who does he want to defeat?" Tang Hongye asked.

Dai Xu pointed to his nose: "Of course it's the police in charge of investigating the case!" ”

"You mean, Wu Shuqin is a sugar-coated cannonball?"

"Pretty much, but a bribe certainly doesn't count. She's just raising her impression score. Dai Xu said with a smile, "The first time she came to deal with us, she was not in a good position. As soon as she came up, she quarreled with Ke Li first, and then her own son was not angry, and he kept being provocative and behaved very unruly, so I guess she felt a little weak after she went back, so she wanted to come over to express her concern. makes us feel that she is very considerate of our hard work, and she is also very concerned about the progress of Ke Xiaowen's matter, so as not to directly position her in the role of a 'bad stepmother'. Check her up and dig deeper, in case something comes out. ”

"Then if you say so, wouldn't Wu Shuqin have something to do?"

"There must be something to be done with a weak heart, and we went out in the afternoon. It's for Wu Shuqin. I didn't dare to make much moves, but I still learned a little thing, Wu Shuqin, as a skilled old nurse, has worked in internal medicine for many years, and she knows very well how to make overall arrangements for different patients who need to be injected with the same kind of drugs and different doses," Dai Xu said pointedly. "After her very economical overall allocation, maybe five patients. The doctor prescribed five pills, but in fact, Wu Shuqin only used three bottles to solve the amount that everyone needed, so the remaining two became her personal belongings, so over the years, Wu Shuqin has a close relationship with the owners of many small pharmacies around the hospital. ”

Fang Yuan added on the side: "The owner of one of the pharmacies said that Wu Shuqin's husband used to have a severe nervous breakdown and had problems sleeping, but because he was very familiar, he could often help Wu Shuqin get some doses of sleeping pills, and then because he got better, he didn't need it. We inquired about the time, and according to Wu Shuqin, Ke Li had a severe nervous breakdown and needed sleeping pills to sleep The days began shortly after the two of them got married, and ended when Ke Xiaowen chose to live in the school and moved to the school dormitory. ”

When Tang Hongye heard this, he raised his eyebrows: "Yo! That's kind of interesting! ”

"Is it a coincidence, or is there some other story in this, let's talk about it after it has been confirmed, it's still too early, so let's get down to business, eat the fruit basket stuffed by Hong Qing, and actually be a little calmer in my heart." Dai Xu didn't comment too much on Wu Shuqin's purchase of sleeping pills.

Finally after finishing a day's work, Dai Xu made an appointment during the day, and drove Fang Yuan to a good store that he had recently heard from others, but because they got off work late, when they arrived at the store, there were already many people waiting for a seat, Dai Xu and Fang Yuan discussed, instead of wasting time waiting for a seat here, it was better to buy a pizza and pack it home, so that it might be more relaxing and comfortable to eat.

So the two of them gave up their plans to dine-in and chose a favorite flavor, Rao still waited for forty minutes to get the hot cheese-scented pizza and drove home.

On the way home, Fang Yuan barely spoke, in the past two days, as she learned more and more about what happened to Ke Xiaowen during his lifetime, Fang Yuan felt as if she had really been affected to a certain extent, although when she was in the working state, she was still able to concentrate 100% and deal with things at work without distractions, but once she was free, her mind was chaotic, and a lot of thoughts and feelings came up, especially today, after dealing with those meal replacement shake powders sent by Fang's mother, she saw Hong Qing again, These two things collided together, and it literally blew up in her heart, which has never been so messy.

When he got home, he put the pizza on the dining table, Dai Xu took two cans of Coke, one can for each of them, after sitting down, no one was polite, one reached out and took a piece, and when he took a bite, the cheese that had not yet cooled was torn out of a few thin lines, and the rich fragrance suddenly filled his mouth.

Fang Yuan swallowed it in one gulp, and then took a sip of cold Coke, he really felt an inexplicable steadfastness in his heart, it seemed that what Dai Xu said was really right, junk food may not be beneficial to people's health, but it is really a good thing to use to soothe yourself when you are in a bad state and in a bad mood.

"Is it because of Ke Xiaowen's affairs, or because of yourself?" The two of them chatted while eating, and when they were almost halfway through eating, Dai Xu suddenly asked Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment, and quickly understood what he was asking, if someone else asked, maybe she would find an excuse to prevaricate, but now it was Dai Xu who asked her questions, Fang Yuan never seemed to feel any burden in front of him, and rarely felt ashamed or ashamed in front of him because of the things in his family, Dai Xu's attitude towards the things in her family has always been very flat, plain and tolerant, after people are comforted, it seems that they will be involuntarily affected by his attitude, It doesn't seem like a big deal.

Therefore, now that he was asked by Dai Xu, Fang Yuan didn't intend to hide his emotions out of control several times today, and nodded to Dai Xu: "It's all there, the feeling of pushing myself and others, I feel that I and Ke Xiaowen, in a sense, also have a feeling of sympathy, or if something happens, he is a little better than me, but Ke Li really cares about him, but he is not meticulous enough, in the final analysis, from the bottom of my heart, I am still proud of Ke Xiaowen, but Hong Qing's side ...... It's a bit hard to tell the same as our family. ”

As she spoke, she smiled bitterly at herself.

Dai Xu sighed silently and said to her: "Although it is said that whether it is on TV or in literary works, it has always been exaggerated that parental love is the most sincere and great feeling in the world, but objectively speaking, not all people are good materials for parents. Being a parent, this is not an innate nature of human beings, there are many people, it can be said to be selfish, it can also be said to be immature, in short, they can take care of themselves all their lives, not to cause trouble to others, it is already very good, even if they are parents, it is impossible to expect them to take responsibility for their children and make great contributions and dedications. ”

Fang Yuan pursed his lips: "I understand what you said. But understand, and can see, sometimes it's not a concept, take Hong Qing as an example, if she has no feelings for Ke Xiaowen, so she has been ignoring him, in fact, it is reasonable, but she herself is down, seeing that Ke Li is doing well, in order to fight for Ke Li to continue the front edge, take Ke Xiaowen as her own emotional bargaining chip, this is another nature. Today I...... I guess you can hear what's going on, my mother can leave me alone, I'm an adult, I won't blame her, but in order to protect her own interests, she doesn't ask my personal wishes at all, and she wants to pull me into a bet ......"
