As soon as Ge Zeqi was sent away, Xia Minglan received a call from He Bingbing: Zhou Guoliang and Yu Xiaoying are holding a full moon wine for their dragon and phoenix fetuses at the Old Zhiqing Hotel tonight, and she is invited to participate. Xia Minglan replied, participate, of course you want to participate!

Xia Minglan put down the phone, and there was an indescribable feeling in her heart. After a failed marriage, she is no longer in the mood to think about finding a new love, she puts all her energy into work, all kinds of complicated matters occupy the whole brain, and there is no room to think about personal problems. A few years have passed in a flash, although there are many opportunities for him to relate to, such as the weddings of He Bingbing, Yu Xiaoying, white-faced scholars and other old classmates, none of them can cause ripples in his heart. Only the news that Yu Xiaoying gave birth to a dragon and phoenix fetus made her feel emotional, and she couldn't calm down for a long time. What made her mind unpredictable?

The old Zhiqing Hotel is no longer what it used to be, and its scale is dozens of times that of the original, and there are 20 private rooms alone. There is laughter and laughter in the store, and people come and go, and you can see at a glance that business is booming. The diners were all smiling, just like the smiling Maitreya Buddha on the wall behind the counter.

The most smiling Buddha is still the proprietress Xiuxiu, who has not seen her for many days, and she can't be recognized: the slender Xiuxiu has become white and fat, with a garden face, a garden body, and even her thighs and arms are rolling, living a female Bodhisattva, fortunately, she is tall, and the overall proportion is relatively coordinated, not too much.

As soon as Xiuxiu saw Xia Minglan, she strode forward and said with a smile: "Rare guests! Last week, Bao Xiaomiao made wine, but you didn't arrive. It hurt me to drink two glasses less, which was really disappointing. I can't spare you today, so I'll make up for it twice! ”

Xia Minglan said with a smile: "If you want to blame, blame your husband for being a white-faced scholar." asked me to help him find a friend in the provincial capital to get some proof materials. I was delayed and couldn't come back that night! ”

Xiuxiu grinned. "I know you're going to say that! I also found Ruan Mingzhu, anyway, the materials that the white-faced scholar asked for were handed over to her, and the two of you will be punished together! ”

Xiuxiu led Xia Minglan to the box "Fugui Hall" on the second floor, where two tables had already been set up, and the guests had almost arrived. On the right is a large round table, and the main seat is Zhou Guoliang and his wife. On the right are Qiao Zhengqing, He Bingbing, Bao Xiaomiao, Xu Hui, white-faced scholars, Xiuxiu; On the left of Zhou Guoliang are the little black skin couple. Zeng Dashan, Bao Chuchu and his wife, Snot King, Jia Wenwen, Ruan Mingzhu. Xiuxiu pulled Xia Minglan to sit next to her. Adjacent to Jia Ruan Mingzhu. Sixteen people in total. Xia Minglan greeted everyone for a while, and then went to another table to say hello.

At the table on the left are Zhou Guoliang's father Zhou Jianxing, mother Fang Shuqin, Zhou Guodong, Baguio and daughter Lingling. Yu Xiaoying's mother, Kang Xiulan, and several other relatives are also full of twelve people at the table. The two dragon and phoenix fetal babies were held by Fang Shuqin and Kang Xiulan, who were smiling, and called out. Xia Minglan took the baby from Kang Xiulan's hand and looked at it carefully. Praise silently, tsk envy. "The little baby is so beautiful. Inherit all the essence of Xiao Zhou and Xiao Yu, and you will definitely be handsome guys and beauties in the future, Aunt Zhou and Aunt Yu are so blessed! ”

Kang Xiulan said with a smile: "My Xiaoying often mentions you to me, saying that you patronize work and delay your own affairs!" Mr. Xia is as old as Xiao Ying, much more tender than Xiao Ying, while she is young, hurry up and find one, a woman will be in trouble raising children after she is thirty! ”

Xia Minglan's face turned crimson. "Don't be in a hurry, it's good to live alone."

Xia Minglan teased the child for a while and returned to Xiuxiu's side.

Baguio whispered: "Mom doesn't want to open the pot, what do you want to tell her to raise children, Xia Minglan is worried!" ”

Kang Xiulan also muttered in a low voice. "I'm anxious for her, what a good woman, she wants to be cultured, she wants to be good-looking, and she has become such a big official. It's been deserted, what a pity! I don't know which man is blessed to marry her back. ”

Baguio said: "It's not easy to find the right one!" Speaking of which, she is also a hard-working person, originally there was a young man who was in love, and he had already talked about marriage, insisting that they were cousins and brothers and could not get married, forcing her to marry a rogue man, and divorced within a few years. The rogue man is also too immoral, and he poked out the truth that she and the young man are not related by blood. And the young man's marriage certificate has only been received for a day, and the woman is a Xichuan girl! ”

Kang Xiulan said: "Could it be that she can't let go of that young man?" ”

Baguio said: "I can't say. I heard that the young man and the Xichuan girl didn't have a good relationship, but no one saw him and Xia Minglan rekindle their old relationship. ”

Kang Xiulan sighed: "Now this world is chaotic, all chaotic!" ”

At this moment, Zhou Guoliang stood up and spoke happily, all thanking relatives, friends, and old classmates for coming, celebrating the full moon of a pair of children, and other festive words. The guests responded in unison, congratulating Guoliang and his wife on their arrival with two stars, and the cups were staggered and laughing.

Xiuxiu clamored to punish Xia Minglan and Ruan Mingzhu for wine, Xia Minglan said, Wait, I have to find out first. She turned her head and asked Ruan Mingzhu, is it useful to go to the provincial capital to retrieve the materials? Ruan Mingzhu said happily, it is useful, of course it is useful. The police said that when the time comes, this heavyweight proof material will come in handy! Xia Minglan said, that's good, I'll drink this glass of wine, it's worth it! Ruan Mingzhu also raised her glass and drank it, and then poured herself another glass and said, Thank you Sister Xia, Sister Xiuxiu, and Brother Scholar, you have all helped a lot, I did this glass of wine! Xiuxiu also raised her glass and said, I did it too, I wish Sister Mingzhu a great success as soon as possible!

Xiuxiu wanted to pour wine again, but Xia Minglan covered the wine glass and refused to let it. "I didn't expect Xiuxiu to become the proprietor, and even the amount of alcohol has increased, you drink yours, and I will replace the wine with tea."

Ruan Mingzhu smiled and said: "Xiuxiu's alcohol consumption grows in proportion to her figure, and like the Maitreya Buddha at the door, it is the symbol of the Old Zhiqing Hotel." Don't you see that couplet? The seats are always full, and the wine is not empty. ’”

Xiuxiu's eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile. "Mingzhu is right, Sister Xia's wine glass can't be empty. Strictly speaking, this cup is still a penalty drink! ”

Xia Minglan was surprised: "Why? ”

Xiuxiu said: "Do you remember what you said when you drank Yu Xiaoying's wine?" Don't pretend to forget. You forgot me! You said there would be good news in two years. Now, three years have passed. Where's your boyfriend? Should it be punished? ”

Xia Minglan smiled: "This is also a punishment?" Xiuxiu is unfair, if you want to punish Ruan Mingzhu, we should already celebrate Women's Day. She's still celebrating Children's Day! ”

Ruan Mingzhu was about to refute, but Xiuxiu helped her: "Special treatment in special circumstances, she has no heart to talk about friends, it is understandable." You are different, you should be punished! ”

Xiuxiu forcibly broke Xia Minglan's hand, poured a full wine glass, and forced her to take a sip. Then he whispered: "There is something I have always wanted to ask you, you have to tell the truth." In the past two years, the relationship between Hong Zhendong and Wu Yuehua has not been good. Wu Yuehua always doubted that the old relationship between you and Hong Zhendong was unforgettable. Do you know what's going on? You haven't found a boyfriend yet, leaving room for imagination. ”

Xia Minglan smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect that I would be regarded as a third party, it's really unimaginable!" Let me tell you so. What is going on between them, I don't know, and I don't want to know. But except for the nominal cousin-brother relationship between me and Hong Zhendong, everything else has long been like a blur. Gone are the moments. ”

Xiuxiu said: "You hate him for leaving the machine tool company." Became a competitor to you? ”

Xia Minglan said: "People have their own ambitions, and they can't be forced. ”

Xiuxiu said: "Then are you blaming him for having less contact with you after he left the company?" ”

Xia Minglan said: "The Tao is different, and the words are not speculative. ”

Xiuxiu said: "You two quarreled? ”

Xia Minglan said: "Why quarrel, it's not a child." I'll just say a few words! I would like to find an opportunity to apologize to Principal Liang and Teacher Peng, and to repent of the wrong things we have done during the turbulent years. And he hopes to have another red flag to show the storm, do you think we can come together? ”

Xiuxiu said: "I see! The Nishikawa girl was too worried. ”

Ruan Mingzhu saw that there were a few lively people here, but Jia Wenwen beside her kept her head shut and didn't speak, looking unhappy. Then he turned his face and asked, "How is my aunt's health lately?" ”

Jia Wenwen said: "My mother can already get out of bed and walk around. The doctor said that if you rest for another three months, you can be like a normal person. Miracle, really miracle. ”

Ge Chunsheng's mother finally woke up, and the first thing she did after waking up was to stop Ge Chunsheng and Jia Wenwen from being together, because they were half-siblings. She said that Wenwen's biological mother is very good, but unfortunately the good people have not been rewarded.

Jia Wenwen knew for the first time who her biological parents were, that moment was tantamount to a bolt from the blue for her, she hated Ge Zeqi's selfishness, why didn't she tell the truth earlier, she and Ge Chunsheng committed incest between brother and sister, and the responsibility was all on Ge Zeqi!

Ge Chunsheng has an indifferent attitude, if you can't be together, you can separate, where can you not find a beautiful woman? After Ge Chunsheng went to heaven on earth, he simply didn't go home, and completely left his biological mother to Jia Wenwen, he was happy to spend all day and drink in heaven on earth, free and free, no one cared about him.

Jia Wenwen saw everything through, and once again had the idea of cutting her hair to become a nun, she quit her supermarket job to take care of Qiu Lizhen, and prepared to be three months later, that is, the moment Qiu Lizhen became a normal person.

Ruan Mingzhu sighed and said, "Why are you telling me these things? ”

Jia Wenwen's eyes were wet. "I'm going to tell you about a man who I've grown so big that I've never seen him before, and I don't know what he's like. That's fine, even if I don't have him as a father, he doesn't have me as a daughter. The Buddha said: The color is subject to the desire to act and know, and the five aggregates are empty. Life is just a stripe of stripes coming and going stripes! ”

Part II, Chapter 50, Peng Zichao's Interpretation Plan

Ruan Mingzhu was sad when she saw Jia Wenwen's dazed and lonely appearance. How similar their situation is, Wenwen is not an orphan, but she is more miserable than her, a real orphan!

Ruan Mingzhu involuntarily hugged her shoulders and whispered: "Wenwen, don't be like this, we are still young, and the road ahead is still very long, don't do stupid things again!" ”

Jia Wenwen rubbed her eyes and forced a smile. "Don't talk about these sad things, today is a happy day, don't ruin everyone's fun. Tell me about yourself, you're not too young, and your mother doesn't nag in your ear? ”

Ruan Mingzhu thought for a while and said: "I haven't thought it through, I haven't found the right person, it's better to be single." ”

Jia Wenwen glanced at her, and stopped talking. Ruan Mingzhu understood that what she wanted to say must involve Ge Zeqi, this kind of thing is not clear, only the person concerned knows best. The two tacitly agreed: Anyway, there will be a day when the truth will be revealed in the morning.

Xia Minglan suddenly interjected: "Mingzhu is right, it is better to lack than to abuse." It used to be too naïve. There are too many rules and regulations for finding objects, and I found a pig-headed blind person who was looking for them, and the lessons of history are he! ”

Ruan Mingzhu and Jia Wenwen's conversation obviously touched Xia Minglan's hidden pain. She actually took the initiative to raise a glass and drank it all, and then sat still, stunned.

Xiuxiu saw that the faces of the three of them were a little strange, and understood that the three bachelors were unhappy in their hearts, and they were in love. Hurriedly beckoned them not to stop chopsticks and eat more vegetables.

At this moment, He Bingbing, Zeng Dashan, Xiao Heipi, Bao Xiaomiao and other young couples took turns to move. Toast to everyone separately, and especially name and wish the three bachelors a happy marriage as soon as possible. Xia Minglan's depressed mood was swept away, and they all laughed and laughed with the crowd.

It was less than 8 p.m. The banquet was dispersed. Ruan Mingzhu was blown by the cool breeze and felt much more refreshed. But as soon as I got on the bike, my worries came flooding up and I panicked.

Peng Zichao was waiting for her in the living room. Seeing that her face was not good. He smiled and said, "Drinking other people's full moon wine makes you feel worried?" ”

Ruan Mingzhu said in a sullen voice: "How can you make me happy?" ”

Peng Zichao laughed loudly: "Don't worry, girl, I just came back from the provincial capital to tell you a good news, our plan has begun to dawn!" ”

Ruan Mingzhu was surprised: "Really? What's the news in the province? ”

Peng Zichao was in high spirits. "Listen to me slowly, don't interrupt. This time, Deputy Secretary Xu of the Provincial Party Committee invited me by name, as well as Zheng Haotian and Shao Guoliang, Directors of the Public Security Bureau, and Director Mu of the Provincial Public Security Department accompanied us to meet Deputy Secretary Xu. ”

Ruan Mingzhu became more and more surprised: "You also met Deputy Secretary Xu?" That's awesome! What did he say to you? ”

Peng Zichao's eyes lit up. "He was very busy, and he met with us a quarter of an hour before the meeting of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee. Deputy Secretary Xu said: Guo Yonghuai's case must be investigated. The party and the government must not treat the people badly. No matter who is involved, as long as the evidence is conclusive, it will be punished according to law! He also joked with me. I heard that Master Peng has a great reputation in Sanjiang City, so I scared those people with your four poems! ”

Ruan Mingzhu's eyes widened and said, "Deputy Secretary Xu even knows that you give poems?" You must be very proud, Deputy Secretary Xu calls you a master! ”

Peng Zichao smiled: "Of course. Do you think that without investigation and research, the province will easily intervene? I estimate that the province must have already grasped the situation, but the evidence is not enough, not to mention that this matter also involves Liang Yimin, deputy secretary of the Sanjiang Municipal Party Committee! But I didn't dare to act in front of Deputy Secretary Xu, I said that it was just a trick of carving insects on the spot, bluffing people, and only people with improper intentions and selfishness would believe it. ”

Ruan Mingzhu asked: "What did Deputy Secretary Xu say?" ”

Peng Zichao said: "He just laughed and didn't say anything, and the meeting was over." In fact, everyone understands people, and silence is better than sound at this time! ”

Ruan Mingzhu is not addicted to it. "How did my uncle alarm the province? Even Deputy Secretary Xu received you, and you want Director Zheng to accompany you? ”

Peng Zichao laughed. "I'm a psychic master, and my mana is boundless!"

Ruan Mingzhu pouted and said: "It's not a matter of deceiving people outside, but also deceiving people at home, ignoring you!" ”

Peng Zichao said with a straight face: "Actually, this matter is really related to the four characters of psychic master, do you know?" Jia Fugui and Huazhongshi, the two of the four heroes of Jiangnan, have a lot of respect for me, and their circle of friends is mainly in the business world, and every time they get together with friends and chat, they will talk to me.

Some people come to me for advice when they are skeptical, and my trick is to distinguish between appearances and colors, and to say specious and ambiguous things. What's more important is that no matter what is right or wrong, nothing is taken. As a result, most of them are right, because they are vague, and people are used to actively leaning in. Even if there is a mistake, it does not make people feel bad. In this way, I became famous, and it spread from the people to the officialdom, and even officials from the province heard about it.

It just so happened that Deputy Secretary Xu had a niece who worked in a machine tool company named Xu Hui. He heard my name from Xu Hui's mouth; It just so happened that I went to the province with materials to petition, and the Provincial Letters and Visits Office made a separate report to the Provincial Party Committee on the case; It just so happened that the appointed secretary of the city reported my appeal materials to the provincial party committee, and because of these coincidences, I, a psychic master, met Deputy Secretary Xu! ”

Ruan Mingzhu smiled. "Uncle said it so easily! Without your careful planning and possession of some reliable materials, Director Cheng would not have believed you. You must know that three years ago, Gozeqi came to a conclusion: it is very old, and there are no clues. Moreover, this case involved two successive deputy secretaries of the municipal party committee. Uncle is too modest, and the key part is not leaky! ”

Peng Zichao laughed. "It is worthy of my own niece, who has inherited the wisdom of the maternal line, if your biological father had been a little clever back then, he would not have left with them easily! You are right at all, there are indeed several key points that have made progress in the case of the disappearance of your parents.

First, our perseverance in petitioning. Since Ge Zeqi made an arbitrary conclusion, I have doubts about him: Ge Zeqi handed over this case to Deputy Director Mo and Cheng Liren for investigation, they are Liang Yimin's iron buddies, and Cheng Liren's morality is even more filthy, can they handle the case fairly? Later, Ge Zeqi strongly recommended Liang Yi to the leading group of the Democratic Progressive Municipal Party Committee, and I even suspected that there was an improper transaction between them.

The second is that I not only found the first witness of the year, Xiao Sanzi, but also found the second witness. Their testimony can confirm that your parents got into Jiangnan Sijie's car before they disappeared.

The third key piece of evidence was the discovery that Jia Fugui and Huazhongshi had a problematic source of funding for their companies and hotels. Five of the antique calligraphy and paintings that have been copied from your house have been auctioned by the auction house and circulated to the people, and after verification, the sellers are Jia Fugui and Huazhongshi.

The fourth key factor is the support and help of Zheng Haotian, many of my actions were carried out with his permission and even cooperation, and the secrecy work was done well, I secretly investigated this matter, and only Secretary Ren, Director Zheng and Shao Guoliang knew about it in the city. ”

Ruan Mingzhu smiled happily: "Uncle's plan must have been discussed with Director Zheng!" ”

Peng Zichao smiled: "Not bad at all. Since Zheng Haotian took over as the director of the Public Security Bureau, he has secretly investigated the disappearance case according to the requirements of Secretary Ren. There are some things that are not as convenient for the public security as for the non-governmental people, so I will handle them. It just so happened that Green Calyx and Huazhong Shi also had a grudge, and they did not hesitate to sacrifice themselves to sneak to Huazhong Shi, but there was still no gain. After I knew about this, I persuaded her to act together, and she reported Heaven on Earth many times that it was involved in pornography, which was actually to give Zheng Haotian a reason to raid the hotel. It's a pity that Huazhongshi's methods are very hidden, and no actual evidence has been caught so far.

Director Mu of the Provincial Public Security Department and Zheng Haotian have the same opinion, and the evidence we have collected is not enough to be ironclad, especially the materials directly pointing to Liang Yimin. Now to find a breakthrough, it is best to look for it from within the Jiangnan Sijie. ”

Ruan Mingzhu said: "I understand, Yingzi's approach to Zou Libo is also part of the plan, but the price is too great, and he took advantage of it in vain." ”

Peng Zichao smiled. "You're wrong, Yingzi is a ghost elf, so she won't suffer in vain! You will definitely ask what happened to Yingzi's pregnancy, but in fact, Yingzi planted it on Zou Libo's head.

Once Zou Libo and Yingzi drank together, Zou Libo was drunk and unconscious, Yingzi felt that it was a good opportunity, so he kept him all night and created some illusions. Zou Libo woke up the next day and didn't remember anything about the events of the previous night. Yingzi relied on him to do bad things, and he had no choice but to admit it. Anyway, I've long been accustomed to this kind of thing, and it doesn't hurt to admit more romantic debts!

Yingzi is your distant cousin, her family has been taken care of by Guo Yonghuai before, and she still remembers it, vowing to avenge him, how can I easily let her be in danger? ”

Ruan Mingzhu smiled and said: "Yingzi's little girl is really good at acting, and she deceived Zou Libo!" In the recent period, Zou Libo seems to be much more serious than before, and Yingzi has played a role in his lesson. He has many secrets hidden in his heart, and it is most appropriate to use him as a breakthrough! ”

Peng Zichao laughed. "Your acting skills will definitely not be worse than Yingzi, the recent period is the key, and Director Zheng hopes to make a breakthrough as soon as possible. First, the change of the city leadership team is imminent, and the second is afraid that the time will drag on for a long time, and the rumors will leak, once the other party is alert, maybe the dog will jump over the wall in a hurry, and any accident may happen. ”

Ruan Mingzhu nodded and said, "Uncle is right, I also have to take the initiative to find the truth from Zou Libo as soon as possible!" (To be continued......)
