Chapter Thirty-Eight: Homecoming
"Big head, I'll go back to Hangzhou tomorrow to visit relatives, bring Xiaowan tomorrow morning, and I'll take her back to Hangzhou to find her relatives. It's been a week's delay, I don't know what his family is in a hurry? Ning Zhiheng waited for him to put away the money and said to him with a smile.
"Okay, this Xiaowan is really a good girl, to be honest, my daughter-in-law told me in the past two days that if we can't find Xiaowan's family, we will raise it as our own daughter. She really treats Xiaowan as her own child. Liu Datong listened to Ning Zhiheng's words, was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly agreed!
Ning Zhiheng said: "Let you take it for a few days, you will be reluctant!" That's someone else's daughter, if you can't do it, you will have another one, hold it every day and don't let go! ”
Liu Datong was also amused by these words, thinking that he would go back but let his daughter-in-law complain, he himself loved this well-behaved girl more and more, thinking about it and discussing with his daughter-in-law again, it would be a good idea to have another girl! But what if you give birth to another leather boy?
"Big head, I'll go back about seven days this time, you can touch the things on the street during this time, especially those rickshaw drivers running around, I found that their business is very important, it's best to put a few leaders together, if you can be our eyes and ears, it's worth spending some money!"
Ning Zhiheng attaches great importance to the rickshaw driver, and the arrest of Yanagida Yuki and Huang Xiansheng can be said that the clues provided by the rickshaw driver are very important, and he feels that these people are used well, which is equivalent to growing a lot of eyes, which will definitely be of great help to his future work.
After Liu Datong heard this, Chief Ning was looking for some secret agents, and many police chiefs in the police station would raise a few gangsters who had been in the market all year round to be their eyes and ears. But there are no rickshaw drivers.
However, he knew that no matter how difficult it was for Chief Ning to explain, he couldn't say no.
He nodded immediately: "Don't worry, I'll do this." There is a rickshaw shop called Yunlai at the entrance of Loumen Lane, and two days ago I heard from the boss that the business is not good and wants to sell the car dealership. I'm going to find a brother and take it down. Aren't such eyes and ears ready-made! ”
"Okay, that's it! Money is not a problem, Liu Yong also contributed this time, I think he will be the shopkeeper, you tell him, I will reward him. Ning Zhiheng was very happy to hear the news, it was better to be in time than to be in time. The opportunity is rare, as for money, it is really not a problem, what he has in his hand is spare money.
"Then I'll thank Boss Ning for him!" Liu Datong joked that Liu Yong is his brother who has played since he was a child, and he usually has no formal job, and the family is really nervous.
Unexpectedly, Chief Ning took a fancy to him, the opportunity was rare, he was really happy for his brother!
"How much does it cost?" Ning Zhiheng then asked.
"It shouldn't be much, the car dealership is renting the land, and then the rent will be paid. The ones that are worth a little money are those rickshaws, which are also old, and they add up to about 500 fiat currency! Liu Datong pinched his fingers and calculated, "The money you gave this time is enough, and I will arrange for Liu Yong to do this tomorrow!" ”
explained things clearly, made an appointment to meet at the train station tomorrow, and the two parted ways and left.
When they arrived at the train station the next morning, Liu Datong's family was waiting in the waiting room early.
Liu Datong's daughter-in-law is a typical, simple-looking southern woman. She was holding Xiaowan in her arms, her eyes were still red, obviously she had just cried.
Xiaowan was also leaning on her arms, sobbing and choking, and she didn't know that she thought it was her mother and mother hugging her head and crying!
There are also two boys who are slightly older than Xiaowan on the side, and they also look reluctant to Xiaowan.
Liu Datong saw Ning Zhiheng coming, stepped forward and said with a wry smile: "This family is reluctant to send Xiaowan, so I have to send it all over!" ”
In the past few days, the well-behaved and lovely Xiaowan quickly integrated into this ordinary family, and after getting along, she has already regarded her as her own family, but she didn't expect to be separated again, even the two little brothers are also very reluctant to give up their little sisters.
Ning Zhiheng's arrival made Liu Datong's daughter-in-law and Xiaowan stop crying, and they all quickly stood up.
These days, Liu Datong's daughter-in-law listens to the nagging of the head of the house every day, saying that she has been taken care of by big people, and her life will get better and better in the future.
She saw with her own eyes today, dressed in Zhongshan casual clothes, clean and crisp, with slightly immature facial features, especially those clear and bright eyes, what kind of big man is there, completely a polite young student!
She didn't know what to say, she just looked at Liu Datong.
Ning Zhiheng stepped forward and said with a smile: "This is my sister-in-law, take care of Xiaowan these days, I'm sorry for you." ”
Liu Datong's daughter-in-law was at a loss, and said repeatedly: "Don't trouble, don't trouble!" ”
Xiao Wan, who was holding her side, looked at Ning Zhiheng timidly and didn't dare to speak, after meeting on Beihua Street a few days ago, the two of them have not been able to meet, and they still have some recognition of Ning Zhiheng.
"Xiaowan, uncle took you to find your parents today, you will be able to go back to your home soon, are you happy?" Ning Zhiheng reached out and gently stroked Xiao Wan's forehead, tried his best to lower his tone, and said gently.
Xiao Wan nodded obediently, but her little hand clenched Liu Datong's daughter-in-law's hand again. She was still a little afraid, and she didn't know where this uncle was going to take her.
This grasp made Liu Datong's daughter-in-law's tears fall again. Ning Zhiheng was a little embarrassed, and Liu Datong on the side stepped forward and glared at his daughter-in-law: "Mother-in-law who doesn't know anything, you know how many times to cry and cry, how many times have I told you at home, and it's still like this at this point!" ”
Everyone talked in the waiting room, and after a short time, the train entered the station, and Ning Zhiheng, Xiaowan and Liu Datong's family said goodbye and boarded the train home.
When she got to the car, Xiao Wan began to say nothing, Ning Zhiheng thought of a way to tease her, and took out a prepared rag doll, and finally Xiao Wan put down the guard in her heart, began to talk and laugh, and gradually became familiar.
Jinling and Hangzhou are not very far apart, but the trains are too slow during this period. I dragged on and walked all day, and I didn't arrive in Hangzhou until about five o'clock in the afternoon.
took Xiaowan out of the station, found two rickshaws, and rushed all the way to Ning's house.
Hangzhou in late autumn is very beautiful, the leaves on the roadside have long turned red, and some leaves have fallen, and they fall like butterflies dancing.
Occasionally, you pass a section of the lake, which is very calm, and a few small boats paddle by, leaving ripples in their waves.
This is where Ning Zhiheng grew up since he was a child, and stepping on this land, every breath makes him feel heartily cordial.
The Ning family's family is a big family in Hangzhou, and their ancestors once served as magistrates in Hangzhou, and later spread out in Hangzhou, and they are also scholarly families from generation to generation.
Later, many of the children in the family also made a fortune in business. Ning Zhiheng's grandfather was a good businessman and earned a family business. He has three sons and a daughter.
Ning Zhiheng's father, Ning Liang, is his third child. Ning Zhiheng has an uncle, an aunt, and an uncle.
Father Ning Liangcai failed to study since he was a child, turned to business, opened three cloth shops, and a restaurant.
's mother, Sang Su'e, was also from a large family and gave birth to two sons, namely Ning Zhiheng and his eldest brother Ning Zhipeng.
Ning Liangcai later married an aunt and gave birth to a son and a daughter, Ning Zhiheng's third brother Ning Zhiming and younger sister Ning Zhen.
Soon Ning Zhiheng came to the door of a mansion in the south of Hangzhou, this is the Ning family's residence, carved arches, wings and cornices, in the south of the city is also a large mansion.
got out of the car with Xiaowan, and the rickshaw driver left all his luggage lightly at the door. After receiving the bounty, he turned away.
There was a porter on duty in front of the door, watching someone come in, and came forward to look: "Oops! It's the second young master who is back! It's the second young master who is back! ”
"Uncle Prawn, are you in good health?" Ning Zhiheng greeted with a smile.
This Uncle Shrimp is the old man in the family, and he has watched him grow up since he was a child, and then when he is older, he does not arrange work for him, and lives in the gatehouse every day, looking at the door by the way.
"If you're in good health, you're well fed and warm, how can it be bad!" Uncle Prawn stepped forward to carry the luggage, and shouted to the others in the courtyard, "Where have all the people gone, and if you don't report to your wife, the second young master has gone home!" ”
Xiao Wan on the side didn't dare to speak when she saw the living person, but just tightened Ning Zhiheng's hand, and looked around with big eyes in a blink of an eye.
After a few calls, the whole courtyard began to boil, the second young master was not at home for a long time, it was rare to come back, and a few servants poured out for a while, greeted him warmly, took the luggage, and led him into the inner courtyard.
Before she reached the inner courtyard, her mother Sang Su'e hurriedly walked out. When he heard that his second son was coming home, he was anxious, so he simply came out to greet him.
Seeing the oncoming son, he was tall and straight, with a gentle temperament, and suddenly seemed to be much taller and calmer than a year ago.
"Mother, why did you get out!" Ning Zhiheng stepped forward a few steps forward to hold his mother's hand and greeted him cordially.
His "mother" is natural and kind, his soul is a fusion of past and present lives, and his feelings for his relatives are simple and natural, without disobedience.
"You still know it's back! I didn't even send a telegram this year, I don't know if my family is worried? Sang Su'e twisted her son's ear, seemed to be hard but lightly forced, and listened to her son's pretended to cry out in pain twice before letting go of her hand.
At this time, I found that there was a delicate and lovely girl next to my son. Immediately asked with a smile: "Whose child is this kidnapping back, this little appearance is strange and painful!" ”
After speaking, she was about to hug it, but Xiao Wan was so frightened that she hid behind Ning Zhiheng.
"Mother, I brought this child back to look for relatives, let's talk about it later. After a day of training, I'm hungry, it's time to eat, right? ”
When Sang Su'e heard her son crying out that he was hungry, she suddenly shouted in pain: "Open dinner, open dinner, don't wait for that old thing, I don't know where it has gone." Let's eat first! ”
Hearing his wife's instructions, everyone hurriedly began to do things and prepare to serve the meal.
The mother of this family, Sang Su'e, has the final say, she is from a large family, the wife of the main house, and has two eldest sons, and her status is stable. In addition, Ning Liangcai was already a little afraid of guilt, and after marrying his aunt, he didn't dare to raise his voice.
The servants in this family all know that when the wife stares, the master is dumbfounded!
