In the first month of 2004, on the night of the fourth day of the new year, Su Chunfeng did not go home.

Since he has taken on the identity of such a half-baked matchmaker, he has to fulfill the responsibility of the matchmaker, under the gaze of his mother-in-law's strange and joyful and hopeful eyes, he had to roll up his sleeves and go into battle - no, at his mother-in-law's house, he talked about the marriage of his sister-in-law for an afternoon, during which he seriously discussed with Zhao Shangang and Zhao Shangang's mother when to get engaged and when to get married, in short, the sooner the better.

In the evening, Zhao Shangang, who was completely aware of his thoughts, invited Su Chunfeng to his home again, and called Li Zhichao over with a phone call, and the three of them drank and chatted until midnight.

Fortunately, Su Chunfeng, deputy general manager of the planning department, is not in a hurry to go to work, and it is not too late to return to the company on the sixth day of the new year.

That night, Zhao Shangang really let go of the cold thick cocoon that had been firmly wrapped around his body for several years, and he borrowed wine to spit out his heart: "Over the years, in fact, I have always been angry with myself and fate, thinking that I don't believe in this evil, I Zhao Shangang lost his father since he was a child, his mother is crazy, and his family is poor...... When I was a child, I thought that whoever dared to laugh at my mother for being a madman and who dared to bully my younger brother would beat whoever I wanted, wasn't it just a fight, it was nothing more than a rotten life! Later, on the construction site in the city, I made people lie down on the bed for three months, and because of the salary of more than 200 yuan, it cost more than 2,000 yuan to see the wound and recuperate. At that time, I was fighting too much, and I didn't really have a clear goal in mind. In the three months I was lying in bed, I had nothing to do and thought about it every day, and I understood it. No matter how hard I fight, people are afraid of me, but in the end, others still look down on me in their hearts. If I want people to be looked down upon, I have to earn money, not only to support my family, for my younger brother to go to school, for my mother to see a doctor, but also to build my family's old house into a small western-style house, and let myself drive a motorcycle and a car...... Only then can it be called a real product! ”

"Then I began to learn from others to do business, pouring lotus roots and potatoes, losing money and making money." Zhao Shangang seemed to be a little drunk, and said honestly: "There must be competition in business, I let people smash the stall outside, and I was surrounded and beaten by more than a dozen people, and I couldn't climb up." After being beaten, I have a long memory and learned something - how is this business easy to do, how can I make money quickly? The answer is, if we only do a business, can we do it badly? At that time, I didn't even know there was such a word as a monopoly. The idea is right, but if you really do this, I can't bear to bully those who do business in a down-to-earth manner, I'm not afraid of your jokes, I'm the kind of person who wants to be a bitch and want to set up a memorial arch, and then in the farmers' market in the county, the guy who sells lotus root came to smash my stall again, I led a few adults in the same village who also sold lotus roots, and were also bullied by that bastard, carrying knives all over the market to chase those people and cut them, and I was also cut several times! That time, I won the battle, and I said to the lotus root seller, as well as the boss who sold the lotus root with him, in the future, in this market, I will beat you once...... Later, I was the only one selling lotus roots in the whole market, and those who sold lotus roots in our village would directly unload the lotus roots to me to sell when they got there! ”

"Business, that's it."

"They all say I'm smart, in fact, turn it over and turn it over, in the final analysis, it's just such a trick, it's a good thing to say, it's a salute before a soldier, to put it ugly, that's to be a bitch and set up an archway!"

"You stuffed money into the police, and people want to protect you, so you have to take care of it, and people protect you well, right?"

"The business is getting bigger and bigger, and my heart is getting bigger and bigger. No way, the breath that came down from the small slap is inexhaustible, no one in the village dares to look down on us anymore, but doing business outside, it is inevitable to meet more rich and powerful, sometimes look at their faces, listen to their tone, it makes people angry, gritting their teeth and pondering that Lao Tzu has to be stronger than you! Then, just rush, kill, fight, ......"

"Chunfeng, I have to thank you, if you hadn't forced me into a corner today, I would still hesitate, for fear that after marrying Wang Haiyan and having children, I will be arrested and shot one day, leaving them orphaned and widowed, how will I live in the future? I can't let my children, like me, have no father since they were young, and then go to work hard to play with their lives, right? Zhao Shangang wiped his sour eyes and wrinkled cheeks, and said with a smile: "But in fact, isn't this self-deception and pit Wang Haiyan again, reluctant to let go, and unwilling to get married, am I still a man?" You're right, I came out of prison and was clean! Jinzhou County, Pingyang City, Zhongzhou City...... Cats and dogs, no one dares to provoke me casually, and it's good that I'm doing business seriously. In the future, I will learn from Yang Shubin, and I have to be smarter and more restrained than him...... Don't hide it from the two of you, Yang Shubin, ruthless! This guy has several lives in his hands! And until now, don't look at him on the surface, what he does, or simply poison him. ”

……

That night, Li Zhichao listened to Zhao Shangang tell about the past, and to the highlights, he listened to it with boiling blood, his eyes were full of stars, and he listened to Zhao Shangang's words with the meaning of washing his hands in a golden basin, and he felt a little emotional and pity.

But Su Chunfeng knew that Zhao Shangang really let go. But letting go of the burden in his heart does not mean that this person will really change his ways and be a good citizen from now on, but for many people who dare to provoke him, Zhao Shangang, who has let go of the burden in his heart, is even more terrifying!

Born to be a hero.

One cocoon, one work!

Early the next morning.

Su Chunfeng habitually got up before dawn, woke up Zhao Shangang, asked him to help open the door, and walked alone on the dim and quiet streets of Dongwangzhuang Village.

When I walked to the edge of the village, at the intersection of Wang Haiping's small building, the mobile phone rang, and when I looked, it was Wang Haifei calling, Su Chunfeng couldn't help but smile and pressed the answer button: "Haifei, why don't you sleep so early, why do you wake up?" ”

"I know you have a habit of waking up early, and you didn't get drunk last night, right?" Wang Haifei asked with a little concern.

"You should also know that I've never been drunk."

"Phew!" Wang Haifei took a sip and said softly: "Are you still at Zhao Shangang's house?" ”

"No, I've walked to the intersection of your brother's house and the street...... Su Chunfeng smiled: "It's such a cold day, why don't you come out and blow the cold wind together?" ”

"Wait, I'm already dressed!"

The phone hung up.

Su Chunfeng was a little stunned for a while - Wang Haifei didn't have the habit of getting up so early, what's wrong with it today? He believed that Wang Haifei would not be so worried that he couldn't sleep because he stayed at Zhao Shangang's house overnight and would definitely drink alcohol - no one was more reassuring than Su Chunfeng drinking outside.

Soon, Wang Haifei, who was wearing a down jacket, walked briskly from not far away.

"Chunfeng."

"Well, here, don't be afraid......" Su Chunfeng hurriedly took two steps forward, grabbed Wang Haifei's still hot little hands, and said, "Why are you getting up so early, it's a cold day." ”

Wang Haifei pouted and said with some concern: "I didn't sleep well last night, I know that you are drinking and chatting with Zhao Shangang and Li Zhichao, and it is not good to call you, alas." ”

"What's wrong?" Su Chunfeng said in surprise.

"During the Spring Festival this year, Li Fei didn't go home for the New Year, you know?"

"Ah, I know, I got up early on the first day of junior high school to talk on the phone to pay New Year's greetings, and her parents went to the capital this year."

Wang Haifei sighed, held Su Chunfeng's arm tightly, and said softly: "When I called her a year ago, I didn't hear anything wrong with her tone, but now that I think about it, she may be angry with the two of us...... Because, we got a marriage certificate and got engaged, but we didn't sue her. ”

"Uh......" Su Chunfeng scratched his head and said, "Before the engagement, I called Pei Jia to ask, Lifei She was busy filming and didn't have time to come back." ”

"Actually, I also called her and asked her if she had time to come back on New Year's Day, she said she didn't have time, and asked me if there was something wrong, and I was embarrassed to tell her at the time." Wang Haifei said quietly, a little frustratedly: "It's better to sue her at that time, alas." ”

Su Chunfeng pursed his lips and was speechless for a while.

He called Zhang Lifei at the time, turned off his mobile phone, and called Pei Jia, and learned that Zhang Lifei was filming, so he didn't call again.

In the final analysis, in fact, this matter is still entangled in emotional issues - when he first got the certificate, he and Wang Haifei discussed in private, don't tell Zhang Lifei for the time being, anyway, no one except for the family. Later, when the engagement date was set, I thought about waiting for New Year's Day to call Zhang Lifei to tell her. But when it was approaching New Year's Day, both of them hesitated with some guilt, and now they called to inform them, would Zhang Lifei be angry and didn't tell her in advance?

came and went, and this matter was deliberately dragged out by the two of them, knowing that they were unintentional but actually intentionally.

"When gossiping last night, my mother mentioned that before New Year's Day, when she and Lifei's mother met by chance on the road, she informed Lifei's mother about our engagement." Wang Haifei shook her head with some distress and said, "Presumably, Lifei got the news at that time, she waited for the call, but neither of us told her." ”

Su Chunfeng pouted, before the engagement, when he talked to his father about who he invited, he also specially asked if he would invite Zhang Kaida, but his father said: "Zhang Kaida is an old friend, when you get married, please him, there is no need to alarm people about the little matter of engagement, these people I invited this time are mainly related to business matters." ”

So Su Chunfeng was a little relieved, and he became more and more hesitant.

Now think about it......

Su Chunfeng raised his hand to hold Wang Haifei's head on his chest, gently rubbed her hair with his chin, and said with relief: "Blame me for this, when the day comes, I will call Lifei to apologize to her and explain." ”

"Let's both of us." Wang Haifei said softly.

"It's fine."
