Jiang Zhilan walked over with a basin of hot water, bent down and put it at Wen Liang's feet, then squatted down and held the white towel floating in the basin in her hand and gently twisted the water, her beautiful face was reflected in the bottom of the white enamel basin embroidered with the pattern of mandarin ducks, but only for a short moment, it turned into nothingness with the ripples of the water lines.

"Wipe your face, I've tried, the water isn't hot."

Jiang Zhilan raised her head, from the neck to the chest to the waist, forming a perfect curve with ups and downs, and because of the squatting, the plump and slender outlined by the tight trouser legs almost revealed the softness and elegance of traditional women without hindrance.

Wen Liang retracted his gaze, he had no distractions, naturally he would not do anything unusual, he hurriedly took the towel and said, "Sister-in-law, you get up quickly, I will do it myself." ”

Jiang Zhilan chuckled: "It's okay, you pushed the cart back with so much effort, what is it for me to do this." Wipe it off, don't get cold again. ”

Wen Yu was polite, wiped his face casually, handed over the towel, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'm not a particular person, sister-in-law, you don't have to take too much care of me." ”

Although Jiang Zhilan has always regarded Wen Liang as a gangster, it can be seen that he should be a very clean person, which is very different from those who usually mess around on the street. A simple dress always does not have too many wrinkles, and the areas behind the ears and nails, which are the easiest places to hide dirt and dirt, also look fresher than the average person. Knowing that he respected himself before he said such a thing, he stood up with a basin and said with a smile: "Then I'll pour you a cup of tea......

"Sister-in-law, don't be busy, come, sit down and talk," Wen Yu couldn't help but take her hand and press her to the chair next to her. Looking directly at the pair of eyes that contain countless vicissitudes but are still gentle and kind. "Is business good lately?" ”

"It's okay." Jiang Zhilan raised her hand and brushed a strand of hair on her forehead to her ear, and the skin on her cheeks faintly gave birth to a jade-like color, and said, "There will be more people in the morning, and it seems that in the evening, I have been focusing on some public security operations recently." There are fewer people coming out, and there are not many people eating supper......"

It was supposed to be April, sending away the bitter cold that had raged for months, and the business of the food stalls should have gradually entered the peak season. Now it seems that it is not as good as before. Wen Liang just returned to Qingzhou, and he didn't know much about what Jiang Zhilan said, but he groaned a little, and guessed one or two, it should still be affected by the Taiwan Strait in February and March, Qingzhou is on the coastal line, the geographical location is very important, and it is reasonable for the city to be nervous. Didn't Liu Tianlai cooperate with the higher-level departments to carry out an encirclement and suppression operation a while ago? Of course, we can't say it too bluntly to the outside world, and it is expected that we will carry out public security rectification under the guise of doing so.

"Well, I've heard that. Don't worry, it's only a month or two. It was not long in coming. ”

"Ah, it's been so long, it's going to take a month or two?" Jiang Zhilan obviously didn't expect it to drag on for so long, the previous public security rectification was only a few weeks, the thunder was heavy and the rain was small, and the shouting slogans passed, what happened this time?

Wen Liang saw that Jiang Zhilan had a worried look between her eyebrows, her hands were nervously rubbing each other, and she looked restless, with her character of never complaining, she had such a reaction for the sake of the good or bad of the business, and she didn't have to guess to know that it was because she was worried about her daughter's college tuition.

At this time, there are no student loans for college students, and the focus of the Hope Project is only at the compulsory education stage. In fact, even if there is, in the first few years when the student loan model has not yet fully matured, it is not easy for ordinary people to get a loan smoothly through the three links of applying for school, bank, and household registration.

Every year, the college entrance examination is the beginning of many people's dreams to take off, and it is also the end of many people's dream journey.

A life that can be changed by a few thousand yuan is a moat that can never be crossed for a family like Jiang Zhilan!

"I said this casually, in fact, it may not be so long," Wen Yu hesitated, he was afraid that if he directly said that he would sponsor her daughter's tuition, Jiang Zhilan might not take the money, so he had to ask tentatively: "Sister-in-law, didn't you hear you say that your daughter is already in her third year of high school, and there are still two or three months to take the exam, how is the review?" ”

Jiang Zhilan's face showed the gentleness and tranquility of maternal love, and her nervous hand also stopped, pressed on her knee and whispered: "Her grades have been very good, last week the city's third year of high school simulation for the second big practice, she scored 683 points, the city ranked fourth, listen to her homeroom teacher said, this is still a lesson did not play the usual level, otherwise it is very likely to compete for the first." ”

Such an achievement is indeed worthy of the pride and pride of every mother in the world, but after Jiang Zhilan finished speaking, there was unspeakable pain and helplessness in her eyes, her daughter was so angry, but she as a mother had no way to provide her with a good living environment, and even her college tuition had not been collected until now, which was really incompetent.

Jiang Zhilan was afraid that Wen Liang would see something, so she hurriedly lowered her head. He can't help him when he tells him these things, how much does it cost to go to college, especially in a famous university, I heard that the tuition fee is thousands of yuan and tens of thousands of yuan a year, so why worry about others who are tired of following him?

She knew that with her gentle character, if she really wanted to talk about these difficulties, he would definitely try to help herself. But he is a little gangster, and he is still chased by such a group of people all over the street at night, which is difficult enough, and he wants to embarrass him again, or is he not a human being?

"The girl doesn't know what's going on now, their school's militarized management of the third year of high school can only go home once a week. I told her to pay attention to her body, but I was afraid that she would not listen, she would go to bed late and get up early every day, and it was important to study, but she couldn't ignore her body......

Jiang Zhilan changed the topic and talked about trivial matters, she was kind and clear, and she saw her mind clearly in a circle, and she couldn't help but regret that she should have made her identity clear when she was outside just now, and she didn't know where to start if she wanted to intervene.

"Sister-in-law, I think I heard that a fat-headed guy with big ears has been harassing you recently?"

Jiang Zhilan remembered the man who would appear at the food stall from time to time during this time, in his early forties, square face and big eyes, and dignified appearance, she didn't care at first, but she felt that this person was a little extravagant, and his demeanor and dress did not look like a person who came to eat in this kind of place, but when he opened the door to do business, he picked up customers from all over the world, and he didn't go to his heart.

But I didn't expect that since the first breakfast, this person has appeared more and more frequently, not only in the morning, but sometimes in the evening, often alone, and occasionally with one or two friends. The content of the speech has also developed from a few simple words at the beginning of ordering food and paying the bill, and slowly developed to ask about the shortcomings of family life, Jiang Zhilan is widowed, and has always been very sensitive to men's intentions.

A few days later, even the old neighbor's sister-in-law on the side saw the signs, and secretly told Jiang Zhilan in private that the person was not small, and the black Mercedes-Benz parked outside the workers' stadium was someone else's car, more than one million, what is this worth? Such people are willing to deign to come here to eat, I am afraid that it is not for food, but for people.

Sister-in-law Fang is enthusiastic, and she also takes good care of the Jiang family, understands the bitterness of Jiang Zhilan taking care of the child alone, and seeing this person's appearance or something is right, it is rare to be interested in Jiang Zhilan, so she has the idea of matchmaking, but in fact, there is no malice.

Jiang Zhilan doesn't really plan to live in widowhood for the rest of her life, all these years for her daughter, and secondly, she hasn't met the right person, more of a disgusting man like Niu Guifang who is only for her body, and her mind is light.

But that night, I heard Sister-in-law Fang tease that person with her, saying that she would be a noble lady in the future, somehow, a fire rose in Jiang Zhilan's heart, and her burning face was hot and painful, as if something extremely precious to her left her with Sister-in-law Fang's words to let her marry, no matter how she screamed and chased, she could never find it back.

What is that thing?

She doesn't know!

But that night, she had a cold face with her sister-in-law for the first time, and she also said that she would never marry again in this life, and the two broke up unhappily. After that, the square-faced man came more diligently, but his true face finally couldn't help but show it, once when he was paying the bill, his hand almost touched Jiang Zhilan's palm, and she quickly avoided it, but as always, for the sake of life, she still endured it.

After all, there is no store owner who often argues with customers and makes the store long-lasting!

Maybe it was this forbearance that made the square-faced man arrogant, and one night when the guests were gone, when Jiang Zhilan was about to close the stall, he suddenly rushed up and said something crazy, and went further to hug and kiss, but Jiang Zhilan took a knife from the board and almost slashed him in the face.

Just as Sister-in-law Fang walked by the door, rushed in and asked what was going on, the square-faced man left in a huff, threw down a business card before leaving, and said with a smile: Isn't life just for money? You can go and ask who I am and what I have is money! 10,000 is not enough for 50,000, 50,000 is not enough for 100,000, waiting for me to come, I want to see, is your leg clamped tight, or Lao Tzu's money is loose!

Jiang Zhilan didn't speak, since that night Wen Forgiveness rescued her from Niu Guifang's clutches, she has long been unconcerned about such verbal humiliation, and even she doesn't know how much courage and strength the little gangster who has only had a few faces!

Sister-in-law Fang wanted to scold angrily, but she was afraid that Jiang Zhilan's reputation would be ruined by being heard, so she hugged this poor woman and said that it was all Sister-in-law's fault, but she didn't see that this was also a beast with a beast's heart, and men didn't have a good thing.

Jiang Zhilan shook her head, didn't even look at the business card, and threw it directly into the briquette fire, her eyes drifting to the unknown place outside the worker's body, as if there was something somewhere, which was an inseparable existence in her life.

There was a man there, who was of a humble position, but who was more gentlemanly than all the men of the earth.

He is not afraid of evil, he is not deceived when he is good, he seems to be thin and weak, but he is stronger than all the men in the world who think they are powerful and can satisfy all their desires!

Truly powerful! (To be continued.) )
