Chapter Seventy-Three: The Storm Suddenly Changes

The sun climbed to the top of the building in the east, and a flock of pigeons flew in the morning sky. Xing Er and Wang Youhua just sat down under the canopy, the teapot had not yet been served, Cha Tiantian walked in the door with a tired face, and when he saw Xing Er, he didn't answer, arched into Xing Er's arms, hugged Xing Er's shoulders and didn't let go. Liu Xianzhi put the teapot on the table, smiled and said: "The godson in front of people, the proud wife in the future, if you have a private conversation, go back to the room at night and talk about it." People come and go not good-looking, drink tea. ”

Xing Er gently stroked Cha Tiantian's shoulder and comforted her, "I've been on the train for a few days and I'm tired of panicking, haven't you had your morning meal yet?" I'll ask someone to make you a bowl of noodles, and after eating, go back and get a good night's sleep, and I'll set up a banquet for you at noon. ”

"Okay, hold one in your arms, and guard one in front of your face. Good guy, the Klang fell on the cow chuckle, and the beauty has arrived at home. Two pumps pump water, and they are not afraid of exhaustion. A cold voice came.

When Xing Er looked back, he was suddenly frozen, Tian Baobao, who had not seen him for several years, suddenly appeared in front of him, he was pleasantly surprised, let go of Cha Tiantian, and stretched out his hand to pull Tian Baobao's hand, but Tian Baobao's hand waved and slapped his hand aside. Tian Baobao originally wanted to lend the opportunity to buy a bed for the child, and find Xing Er, who was thinking about it day and night, to reminisce about the old relationship. But when she saw Liu Xianzhi standing beside Xing Er, she was a little unhappy, and when she saw Xing Er holding the foreign woman, she began to get angry in her heart, and sour feelings emerged, in fact, for several years, she has been thinking about Xing Er in her heart, and she has never been able to get rid of Xing Er's shadow in the depths of her heart. His voice and smile, especially his somewhat bad smile, often appeared in front of her, although she tried her best to suppress her longing for him, but it was impossible to forget Xing Er. After the last wall collision incident, in order to alleviate the family conflict, she no longer has any contact with Xing Er. Not being connected doesn't mean that she doesn't want Xing Er, when she heard that Xing Er works hard and strives for self-improvement. also set up a big market, she was silently happy for him in her heart, and secretly felt extremely proud. There is an undercurrent of love that fills her heart. In the depths of her heart, all of Xing Er's victories, she blessed him, she had loved such an excellent man, she was actually satisfied.

"How did a donkey come out of the sheep pen?" Liu Xianzhi said contemptuously.

"Boom, when I hear it, it's the sound of a donkey." Tian Baobao sneered.

Xing Er was very calm, he smiled at Wang Youhua: "Third brother, have you seen it, the eldest ex-wife, the little ex-wife, the current wife, the three daughters-in-law are in one play, and one less is not lively." ”

"Don't be poor, who is your ex-wife? Don't pick a place for nonsense. Wang Lin happened to be standing behind Liu Xianzhi, so Liu Xianzhi immediately retorted.

Tian Baobao pouted: "Fake serious." As a sister-in-law and as a god, a chaste archway was set up in front of the prostitute's door, something. On the day I went on a blind date, didn't you say that Xing Er was sick, why was he still sticky around him, a sick man? What heart disease, uremia, rheumatic cartilage plus venereal disease, lupus erythematosus and syphilis, rotten up and down, pus in the limbs, died immediately in three or two days. Xing Er, who changed the law, died early, these are all good things you did. ”

Xing Er asked Liu Xianzhi: "These are all true?" ”

"Yes、、、、 yes、、、、。 At that time, I was not afraid that she would occupy the nest, and you two would become it, and I would be finished. The more Liu Xianzhi spoke, the lower his voice became, and in the end, he lowered his head and blushed and stopped squeaking.

Aunt Liu looked bad, smiled busily, took her daughter's arm and walked into the house, and said haha: "Didn't you let you go into the house to give this foreign girl a note, why don't you go quickly." So she got off the donkey, no matter how good or bad, and finally relieved her daughter.

Xing Er asked Tian Baobao affectionately: "Baby, how have you been in the past few years?" Since you hit the wall and injured yourself, I haven't seen you since I hit it, I originally wanted to go to you, but I was afraid of causing you trouble. ”

Tian Baobao raised her head, with tears in her eyes, she tried her best to control her feelings, did not let the tears flow out, and deliberately pretended to be angry and said, "What are you looking for me to do?" You don't need to care. I hug my foreign wife every night to enjoy myself, and the reserve player is on the bench at any time, am I worth your nostalgia? I 、、、、、、、 I hate you! After saying that, he gritted his teeth, didn't look back, rushed out of the door, and left.

Xing Er chased out of the door, wanting to make some explanations with Tian Baobao. Ke Tian Baobao was so angry that he just walked forward, ignoring Xing Er who was following behind him. Xing Er had no choice but to return to the big market, watching Zha Tian Tian eat noodles while asking about her father's condition. When he knew that the 100,000 yuan that Zha Tiantian brought back was not enough, he immediately comforted Zha Tiantian: It doesn't matter if the money is not enough, wait for her to take a break, and then send some money home, in addition to treating her father, and then give some money to her mother, so that the two old people can live more comfortably, so as to save Zha Tiantian worry.

Zha Tiantian looked at Xing Er affectionately, and her gratitude was beyond words. Xing Er comforted her with words again, and Zha Tiantian was even more grateful. Two tears of love also dripped down.

When Liu Xianzhi heard that Xing Er gave Cha Tiantian 100,000 yuan, her heart was naturally tight, and when she heard that she had to give Cha Tiantian money again, she was a little distressed. But if you think about it carefully, money belongs to others, and love is given to whomever you want. Aren't you worrying about it? Immediately retracted his thoughts, went into the house to prepare the lunch dishes, and stopped thinking nonsense. Mind the idle things out there. Relying on Xing Er's support, he opened such a big restaurant, which is hundreds of times stronger than the commissary of the fertilizer factory, and it is almost the same as earning less than 150,000 yuan in a year. Those who are content are happy, this is enough, with such a big light as Xing Er, contentment is enough, less than the top, more than the bottom. Although he didn't dare to compare with Cha Tiantian, he was cheaper than Tian Baobao, who had a bigger temper than the sky. Na Tian Baobao and Xing Er had a heart-to-heart match, and in the end, they got a monkey to catch the moon - a failure. It's a big loss. I'm much better than her. Thinking of this, Liu Xianzhi suddenly had a spring breeze on his face, and he started working happily, and his steps were much lighter than usual. It can be seen that being good at self-decompression is also a good way to make yourself happy.

If people are happy, there will be disasters for dogs. The sun cannot shine at noon. Xing Er has been smooth sailing for several years, and he is proud of the spring breeze everywhere, but unexpectedly, there are unpredictable winds and clouds, and suddenly there is an accident, and his large wood market is taken over by the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. The reason is very simple, where there is a market, there is a transaction, there is a transaction, there is a transaction, there is a fee. In the market, individual operators deceived consumers with shoddy products, and many deceived people complained to the industrial and commercial bureau, so the industrial and commercial bureau reported to the county party committee for approval and decided to take over and rectify the big market.

Xing Er immediately called the county magistrate Zheng, this county magistrate Zheng is the former director of the county party committee office, and he has been promoted, Xing Er has been very smooth in the past few years, the lower eyelids are long and the upper eyelids are short, he rolls his eyes and looks at the sky, he has more contact with women, and he reports less to the leaders, the county magistrate is busy with work, he is open to reform, there are a lot of affairs, and he is very busy, how can he have the time to listen to Xing Er's idle talk? A little emotional contact, speaking is full of politeness, a big basket of truth, only one center, enlightening and educating Xing Er, focusing on the overall situation, handing over the management of the big market, and finally asking Xing Er: "Boss Xing, you said, the largest market in the county, even the surrounding counties and cities have come to purchase goods, such a big market, without the management of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, don't you laugh at the incompetence of our county party committee?" Individual bosses must make a fortune under the correct leadership of the government. ”

That is, what the leader has already decided, that is, the iron plate is nailed, and the arms cannot be twisted into the thighs. Xing Er had no choice but to obey. Seeing that Director Zhou of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, the man who was Tian Baobao, led the long-tongued woman and the fat woman, and a few temporary workers, drove into the big market, set up a market management office, and issued a written notice to the business households one by one, from now on, the water and electricity bills and management fees will be paid to the market management office. What's more, whenever Director Zhou meets Xing Er head-on, he always holds his head high proudly, and always looks at Xing Er with a bad eye. What's even more infuriating is that the fat long-tongued woman also took advantage of the situation, pointed fingers at Xing Er, instructed Xing Er's subordinates to do this, and also built a hut with color steel tiles for the janitor of their management office, which was next to the edge of Xing Er's factory, to constantly monitor Xing Er's every move, and the fat woman was entrusted with the title of director of the market management office. When he became the director, the villain was determined for a while, and then he had to show off. On the pretext of inspecting work, she rolled a fat body, and often went to Xing Er's office to find fault and train Xing Er, but there was no way to roll Xing Er's belly. In order to calm things down, Xing Er specially arranged for Cha Tiantian to serve this fat girl. Cha Tiantian has a lot of experience, she doesn't take her seriously at all for this kind of small role, when there are many people, she deliberately stands with the fat director, attracting countless eyes to comment on the two. The result is obvious, 100% of the people who praise Cha Tiantian's beauty, and 100% of those who scold fat women for being ugly, there are young people who pleased Cha Tiantian, and they cursed the fat director in front of him: "Fat and ugly to this way, don't go and hang yourself quickly, I'm embarrassed to stand in a row with beautiful women, disgusting!" ”

Xing Er drank too much beer, went to pee next to the wooden stack, and saw the old man who was boiling water to make tea, he hurriedly dissuaded: "Old man, you can't make a fire, it's amazing." This is a big wood market, except for wood or wood, I can't see a little spark. ”

This old man is the fat director's maiden father, who came from the countryside to join his daughter. Earlier, she was a doorkeeper in the abducted industrial and commercial office, a temporary worker, which would make her daughter a director, so she came to a feminist father, transferred to the big market, and her salary increased by 200 compared with before, relying on her daughter's power, this old guy didn't treat Xing Er as dry food at all, and Xing Er's advice to persuade him to prevent fire was even more deaf to him, not only did he not listen, but also scolded Xing Er for being meddlesome: "Don't teach Lao Tzu a lesson, when I was the production captain, you still wore open crotch pants." He pointed to his homemade sawdust stove and demonstrated to Xing Er: "It's true that there is fire in it, if I cover this iron sheet, and then press bricks on the iron sheet, won't it be fine?" If the fire can't come out, everything will be fine. I see that you kid can't get along with me, right? Lao Tzu drinks some tea, burns you some shavings, you panic, right? Tell you the truth, others are afraid that you are the boss, but I am not afraid. My daughter is the king of this big market! This is the official tea I drink, which is the cooling tea issued to me by the unit. Drinking tea is also work, you know? I haven't eaten imperial grain, so I don't think you understand these big truths. After scolding, he still made his fire, but put the shavings some distance from the stove.

Xing Er tied up his pants and hurried to the office. asked Cha Tiantian to take out 50,000 yuan in cash and drove away from the big market in person.

Cha Tiantian thought that he was going to deal with his superiors, so he didn't ask much. Over the years, Cha Tiantian knows everything about the unspoken rules of the bosses, she understands that she should never ask what she shouldn't ask, and she will definitely tell herself what the boss wants to know, and what the boss doesn't want you to know, you won't tell you if you ask, this is the rule of the trade.

The next day, Xing Er led a few people around the big market and took a few photos. After a reception at the Grand Hotel at noon, the gang left with a smile.

Recently, there was a fire in the backyard of Director Zhou's house, Tian Baobao and him were divorcing, and the two had discordant personalities, both of which were tempers. Director Zhou thinks that he is a national cadre, and he is a master inside and outside, and he talks about everything outside, and brings home those stinky problems that he has developed in the unit. Of course, Tian Baobao didn't admit it. She thinks she is young and beautiful, she is a big girl who marries a second marriage, and she has a daughter in the front room. But the director of last week would not pity the jade, and took the young lady as a maid. After coming and going, the two had a conflict, plus the stepmother is not good, the scale of managing the child is not easy to grasp, and the mother-in-law is afraid of ignoring the child, too laissez-faire, not her own, not thinking about the future of the child, and not cultivating seriously. It's also a problem to be strict, and it's not good, it's a specific manifestation of malaria treatment of children. Tian Baobao has been around for a few years, and she is not on the left and right. I had the heart to complain to my husband about my grievances and gain some sympathy, but in exchange for ridicule and suspicion. The two don't talk speculatively for more than half a sentence, and often quarrel and fight for their children. In addition, the house leak happened to be rainy and rainy, and in the past few days, for the sake of Xing Er's big market, the two of them have quarreled again. Fat women often fanning the wind and lighting up ghosts in front of Director Zhou, and playing right and wrong is the strength of women. Directly instigated Director Zhou to go to the old robe and change into new clothes. As soon as Director Zhou said the words of divorce, Tian Baobao immediately responded, and the two of them wrote the divorce agreement that night, Tian Baobao gambled, didn't want anything, and became a monk, and smiled at Director Zhou's joy, and supported his son's divorce with 10,000 supports. Within three days, the two of them completed the divorce procedures. Tian Baobao went back to his parents' house for a night, and left the county by car the next day. Director Zhou took his anger at Xing Er about the divorce and instructed the fat director to make Xing Er angry. Tian Baobao divorced and ran away, and Xing Er didn't know about it at all. The fat director has the support of the leader and has no fear. She saw that Xing Er swallowed her anger and retreated step by step, even more inch, kicked her nose on her face, and came to reprimand Xing Er every day, which made Xing Er embarrassed, and wanted to call her true, it was not appropriate, she represented the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. Thinking about it, can't I hide if I can't afford it, so I simply gave myself ten days off, took Zha Tiantian, and Wang Youhua and his wife, and the four of them went directly to see the Zhaozhou Bridge mentioned in the third-grade Chinese.

Liu Xiangzhi was entrusted by Xing Er to take care of her business for a few days. She didn't dare to be careless, as soon as the hotel had free time, she went to Xing Er's wood stacks, warehouses, and workshops to take a look at the actual situation everywhere, so that she could know it in her heart. The workers knew that she and her boss had a special relationship, and they intentionally or unintentionally joked with her, but Liu Xianzhi was not angry, but just pursed her lips and smiled. She encouraged the workers to work hard and earn more to support their families. The young man asked her what she was raising if she didn't have a daughter-in-law and didn't have a family, and Liu Yanzhi replied: "Learn from your boss Xing, and it's more enjoyable to have a foreign woman." It didn't matter what she said, and all the people in the workshop laughed.

It was very windy that night, and the wires outside the door whined, like an old cow roaring. At twelve o'clock, Liu Xianzhi had just fallen asleep, and in a daze, he heard someone shouting: "It's on fire, put out the fire." She pushed Wang Lin beside her: "Listen, it seems that someone is shouting for fire, you get up and look at the gas stove in our house." ”

Wang Lin was busy for a day, tired and had a sore back, and finally fell asleep, just less than ten snoring, and was woken up by his wife, he was a little impatient in his heart, but his wife's words were holy decrees, and he didn't dare not listen. I want to delay a bit and then get up slowly. Unexpectedly, the old man who watched the door slapped her window hard, and shouted vigorously: "Boss Liu, get up quickly, the wood stack over there is on fire!" The shouting was both nervous and urgent. Now Liu Xianzhi and his family can understand that it was Xing Er's side that caught fire. The two jumped up from the bed at the same time, opened the curtains and looked out through the glass, it was broken, Xing Er's wooden stacks were blazing, the flames were several feet high, and there was a crackling sound from time to time.

Liu Xianzhi had never seen such a big fire since he was a child, his face suddenly turned sallow with fright, and he rushed out when he opened the door, wanting to rush to fight the fire. Wang Lin grabbed her and shouted: "Pants!" Wear pants. Liu Xianzhi looked down, only to find that he was only wearing a pair of pants up and down, hurriedly pulled his clothes and put them on his body, put on three or more buttons, bent down to pick up the basin on the ground, filled it with water from the pool of beer, and ran to the fire, more than 20 steps away from the fire, a heat wave rushed over, and her face was hot and painful. The wind swept the flames around, almost setting her hair on fire. She had no choice but to throw the basin over, but unfortunately the basin fell to the ground not far away, and it was still a long way from the fire.

Liu Xianzhi rubbed his hands, stomped his feet in a hurry, and had no choice but to watch the fire burn more and more with the help of the wind. It is not easy to burn from the wood stack to the workshop, usually for the convenience of pulling wood, the wood stack and the workshop are connected. The fire burned from the workshop to the finished product warehouse, and then spread from the finished product warehouse to the surrounding business households. More than a dozen of them are in the wood business. What's more, those finished sofas are painted on the wood, and covered with sponges and fabrics. Can it not burn violently? By the time the fire trucks arrived, the entire market had turned into a sea of fire.

The fat director lived not far away, and at this time he was disheveled, running over with one shoe in his hand, and shouted to the firefighters: "Quickly spray water into the guard house, my father is still sleeping in it, save people." She stumbled and was about to drill into the hut, but a firefighter hurriedly grabbed her, she sat on the ground, clapped her thighs with both hands and howled: "Dad, this time it will kill you, but you will rely on me." ”

When the firefighters heard that there were people in the hut, they didn't care about the fat director, so they immediately organized two water cannons and swept the hut violently, and then two firefighters risked their lives and rushed into the hut under the cover of the water cannons, and carried the old man out and put him on the ground. The fat director immediately pounced, and saw that her father was like a half-cooked yam egg, with little skin and no hair on his body, and he didn't dare to hold hands when he was hot. The fat director who was in pain howled and cried, and just cried three or four times before he turned his back on it. Everyone hurriedly stepped forward to rescue, and it took a lot of effort, bending her legs, and beating her back, and finally brought her back back to life.

When the old man's body was taken away by an ambulance, Director Fat immediately reported the case to the Public Security Bureau, and insisted that Xing Er had set fire to the big market. The purpose of his arson was to vent his dissatisfaction with the industrial and commercial bureau's takeover of the big market, and as for burning her father, he was even more crazy revenge and murder for his own time. Because a few days before the fire, her father told her that Xing Er had troubled her father, and the two had an argument. Xing Er had threatened to burn her father to death at that time, so the fat director concluded that Xing Er had committed the crime. In addition, he has not shown up in the big market in the past few days, he must have planned and prepared arson behind his back, and he was making preliminary preparations, and he escaped after he succeeded. Attempts to evade the law.

Listening to what Director Fat said, the police handling the case at the Public Security Bureau were suspicious. In response, they immediately launched an investigation into Xing Er. In order to avoid startling the snake, they asked an acquaintance of Xing Er to call Xing Er, it was half past three in the middle of the night, and the fire in the big market was still burning and had not been completely extinguished. After a phone call, the police determined that Xing Er did not know about the fire. Through the technical reconnaissance, the police Ding Xing Er's group of four people are still resting in a hotel private room 400 kilometers away. From the start of the fire to the confirmation of Xing Er's actual residence, it took less than three hours, a distance of 800 kilometers back and forth, and Xing Er could not return by one-way drive. He did not have the time to commit the crime. At the moment when the fire started, he hugged Cha Tiantian and just fell asleep, playing chess with Zhou Gong before he started.

After dawn, Liu Xiangzhi called Xing Er and told him that there was a fire in the big market at night and that he had burned a person to death. When Xing Er heard this, he immediately sat on the ground, his hard work in the past few years was burned and turned into ashes, and he even felt that the end of the world was coming. When asked about the cause of the fire, Liu said: "The Public Security Bureau is investigating. ”

Xing Er put down the phone, and then suddenly realized that the real reason why his friend called in the middle of the night was to help the Public Security Bureau investigate his own business. Alas, it really fulfills the old saying: There are thousands of friends in the world, but there are only one or two confidants.

Wang Youhua saw that Xing Er was excited, his expression was a little trance, and he was still muttering to himself, afraid of an accident, he didn't dare to ask him to drive again, so he drove back by himself, and he was in tears along the way, and his beautiful big eyes were always staring at Xing Er's face, wanting to persuade him and comfort him, but before the words came out, he cried first. She finally couldn't control her feelings, and cried "wow", lying in Xing Er's arms, twitching and writhing all over. Affected by her, Xing Er's body leaned against the back of the chair, standing there stiffly, his expression was painful, silent tears flowed from his eyes, and his whole face was full of tears. He didn't have to wipe it with his hands, and let the tears of pain flow out of his heart.

Wang Youhua's wife wiped away Xing Er's tears with her own handkerchief and comforted him: "Brother, there is no flame mountain that cannot be passed, there are green mountains left, and I am not afraid of running out of firewood." We have the skills to be a carpenter, are we still afraid that Dongshan will not be able to get up again? Recalling the ditches and bumps that the big market has passed through in recent years, she herself couldn't help but shed tears.

When Xing Er and his party returned to the big market, Liu Xianzhi was already waiting for them outside the gate. Xing Er's office had been burned beyond recognition, and several people had to stand under the canopy of the hotel and look inside. They made an investigation according to the actual situation at the scene: the cause of the fire was caused by the fat director's father cooking at night and getting up to boil water and drink tea in the middle of the night. The old guy tinkered with the stove several times in the middle of the night alone, stir-frying vegetables, and boiling water. The embers in the sawdust furnace were not exhausted, the iron sheet covering the furnace mouth was blown away by the strong wind, and the sparks in the furnace were blown down by the strong wind on the shavings used by the old man to burn the fire, and the shavings that burned the fire fluttered with the wind and scattered on the buttress of Xing Er not far away. Although there is a layer of protective net on the outside of this buttress, the steel mesh is to prevent thieves from stealing wood, the mesh is bigger than an adult's fist, and it can't stop the shavings that are bubbling with flames. In addition, the wind is also blowing to death, the fire borrows the wind, and the wind helps the fire, which burns the big market. Nine times out of ten, the operators have been affected, even if those shops that have not been over-fired, due to fire prevention, spray water on the finished sofa, but also make a mess of the finished fabric, the original bright and beautiful fabric, by the water faucet containing fire extinguishing agent, dirty appearance, who is willing to buy?

There are even more cruel facts, and they gave Xing Er a dull stick even more ruthlessly, that is: Cha Tiantian, who was inseparable from him, saw Xing Er suffering, and turned from a rich man to a poor egg overnight, she saw that Xing Er was going away, so she took advantage of Xing Er's unpreparedness, rolled up Xing Er's remaining working capital, and secretly returned to Liaozhou without meeting. When Xing Er came back to her senses and went to Liaozhou to find her, she had already gone abroad in advance! Xing Er has never seen her parents in person, and she doesn't know where her family lives, Liaozhou has a vast territory, where to find it? Zha Tiantian, who is beautiful and kind on the surface, absconded with money at the critical moment and took Xing Er to the trap. Just this last knife, stabbed hard in Xing Erhou's heart, can he survive this hurdle?
