126. Change locks

I feel that Zhou Yu's current situation is-

I wanted to try to circumvent it, but God always wouldn't let me get my wish, and from time to time I would grind something out. For example, this sudden arrival of the child; For example, he can't do without the cases that the court hears.

So sometimes it's not easy to talk about letting go, and I think it's hard to even completely separate yourself from this person.

My mother came to me at night to discuss things, but she ran into my pregnancy, and thought about putting her own affairs on hold, but I still interrogated her. It turned out that she and Wei Wenjun had already decided to be together, and planned to find a day when the two of them would go to get the certificate, and they didn't plan to do wine, and after getting the certificate, they were legal couples and could live together.

My mother will go to Wei Wenjun's house to live, then the house here will be vacant, she means that the transfer to me will be counted as my house, lest I still have no property, and I still rent a house to live in. But now that I'm pregnant, she's going to put it off for a while, and she'll have to wait until I give birth to the baby.

The matter of the house can be put aside for the time being, but my pregnancy does not conflict with hers, and I do not agree with my mother and Wei Wenjun to get a certificate but not to drink. It's a happy event anyway, how can you be so hasty and forget it?

Mom's mouth moved when she heard what I meant, and retracted the words that came to her mouth.

My eyes lit up, even if I didn't say it, I could guess the general meaning, which was nothing more than that Zhou Yu and I only got a license and didn't do wine, and finally separated. But she forgot that she was very concerned about this matter at the beginning, and she had a quarrel with me about it, which shows that she actually cares about the form in her heart, but it is not easy to mention it to Wei Wenjun because of her face.

I was sleepy after chatting, and before I fell asleep, I asked a question that I wanted to ask a long time ago-

Mom, is Wei Wenjun the one who was at the beginning?

My mother didn't respond, I thought she had fallen asleep after a long time, and my consciousness was a little blurry, but I heard my mother whisper in the dark: It's been many years, who remembers.

When I recalled this sentence the next day, I already had the answer in my heart.

I still remember that my mother was still studying when she first mentioned remarriage to me, if that person was Wei Wenjun, it was really my mother for many years. My mother gave up a lot for me, and I couldn't tie her up anymore.

But when I got home from work in the evening, I saw my mother already cooking in the kitchen.

"Mom, why are you here again?"

Mom glanced sideways, "What are you talking about, you are not allowed to go to your mother?" ”

"No, you're not close to me this time, and you have to change trains, toss or not? I'll do what I want to eat. ”

But it had to come from a mother's ridicule: "Just your cooking skills? Save it, you can cut your fingers when you cut a dish, and it's not good for so long. I've prepared food for you in the refrigerator, and then I'll pack some wontons for you to stockpile, enough for you to eat for two or three days, and I'll come over every two days in the future, since I want to keep this child, the nutrition must keep up. I've thrown away all your instant noodles, and I can't touch the food that isn't nutritious. ”

I wailed and ran to the trash can to save my food, but the trash can was empty, and my mother said coldly: "I threw it directly downstairs to the trash can." ”

"There's a self-service hot pot there."

The old mother didn't reply: "I didn't see it." ”

I'm covered in black lines.

When I got off work, I went to the lock store and bought a new lock, but something went wrong when I installed it. My mother saw that I hadn't done it for a long time, so she came over and said, "We can't install this lock ourselves, so we have to call the lock changer." ”

"Why?"

"It seems that there is some mechanism in the lock cylinder, the lock at home is changed like this, and the master will change it in ten minutes. Didn't the boss tell you where you went to buy the lock? ”

Yes, but I didn't think it would be difficult to bring people over, and I thought it was not difficult to replace the lock, so I just bought the lock and came back. Facts have proved that there is a specialization in the art industry, and it is not easy to eat this line of food.

I was about to look up the phone number of the owner of the lock shop, when the elevator door opened with a bang, and Zhou Yu walked out of it.

He turned his head to meet my raised gaze for a moment, his gaze slipping, and his eyes flashed with realization.

I was a little stupid, I wanted to change the lock quietly, but the next time he couldn't open the door with the key, he would understand my intention to change the lock. As a result, he was directly bumped into by him, and he also came over and asked, "Do you need help?" ”

Seeing that I was bored there, my mother answered directly for me: "Xiaoru wants to change the lock, and I haven't done it for a long time." ”

"Show me."

As a result, the lock that my mother said that I had to change the lock master to install was pressed by Zhou Yu in only five minutes, and he also "carefully" tested the switch function for me, and then handed the key to me.

As I took it, I heard him say, "Remember to press the battery on the doorbell." ”

"...... "I have a doorbell, but I haven't pressed the battery, so the doorbell is equivalent to a fictitious one."

My mother answered a phone call while she was having dinner with me, and after hanging up, she told me that maybe she didn't have time to come over these days, and asked me to call for takeout or take the chicken in the refrigerator to make porridge and eat. I thought it was Wei Wenjun who had something going on, but I heard her say that a friend who runs a beauty shop wanted to go back to her hometown and ask her to help watch the store for a few days.

I can't help but wonder, when did my mother have a friend who opened a beauty shop? Looking at my mother again, it seems that her skin is indeed much tighter than before, and her face is also ruddy.

After dinner, my mother was leaving, and I said to drive her, but she excused herself and said that I was not in good health now, and I should try to go out as much as possible, especially at night. It's really a coincidence, when my mother opened the door and went out, the elevator door just opened, and I saw Zhou Yu as if he was coming back from outside.

He looked at us, "Auntie is leaving?" I'll send you back. ”

My mother hesitated and said, "It's okay, so you don't have to worry about being so small." ”

So my mother and Zhou Yu went downstairs together, how strange do I think about this, it stands to reason that my mother's temper will definitely refuse Zhou Yu's initiative, why did I agree at once?

Although I have been in constant contact with Zhou Yu for a while, I hope I can avoid it as much as possible.

When I came to the balcony and looked downstairs, it didn't take long to see Zhou Yu's car slowly driving out of the apartment parking area. I was drowning in my heart, I was afraid that my mother had something to say to him.

Sitting quietly in the living room, the sound was so clear when the elevator door opened that I immediately pricked up my ears.

I heard the footsteps coming out of the elevator and seemed to take two steps towards my door, and then paused, and just when I thought there would be a knock on the door the next moment, the footsteps suddenly pulled away from the door and walked towards the opposite door.

When did my ear become so good that I could even hear the sound of the key turning the keyhole, until a muffled "bang" sound, I reacted, and Zhou Yu entered the room and closed the door.

I took out my mobile phone from my pocket, looked it up in the address book, and the name of "Zhou Gongjin" was ranked at the bottom, and my fingertips fixed and pulled up, and clicked into my mother's mobile phone number.

"Xiaoru? I'm home. My mother answered the phone and reported her safety first.

I hesitated, but asked, "Mom, did you say anything to him?" ”

"What can you say? Naturally, it's not good that you are divorced and still have such a close relationship, Xiaoru, since your house is also rented, why don't you move elsewhere? It's good to move closer to where you work, so you don't have to drive. In the future, if you have a big belly and it is really inconvenient to drive, don't you have to think about these in advance? ”

I was silent for a while and replied, "I know, I'll think about it later." ”

After hanging up the phone, she smiled bitterly, and my mother said it easily, the residential areas near the court are all high-end apartments, and the house cannot be bought with money, and it is even more difficult to rent a house. And Zhou Yu's apartment is over there, wouldn't it be more convenient for him to move there?

But my mother is really thinking about it, and now I can still drive to and from work every day, and it will be more troublesome when my belly gets bigger and bigger. It is also unrealistic to take maternity leave in advance, and you can only take it when you are about to give birth.

I put things aside in my heart, and I always wander when I work. Although Xiao Dong complied with my request and asked Xiao Zhou to be my assistant, Xiao Zhou was responsible for file sorting and data search, and I only needed to review this step, but when I looked at it, my mind wandered elsewhere.

There were two taps on the table next to me, and when I looked up and saw Xiao Dong standing on the side, he looked at me with a smile and asked, "What about desertion at work?" I blinked, "Something?" ”

He looked around with a solemn expression, and said in a loud voice: "Meeting." ”

To my surprise, the meeting revolved around the case of the chemical plant explosion that Zhou Yu had mentioned. On the one hand, there are the evidence and testimony provided by the police, on the other hand, the representations of the boss of the chemical plant, and the colleagues are also on their own. Some people think that the firefighters rushed to the front line of life and death to fight the fire, and now they have sacrificed, the chemical plant should be fully responsible and compensated; There is also a lack of evidence to confirm that the explosion at the chemical plant was caused by the improper operation of the chemical plant itself, and that it is more like an unseen fire was thrown into it, which led to this series of events, and that the chemical plant was also a victim and should not be primarily responsible for the death of the firefighters.

These contents had actually been discussed when they had hot pot that night, and now Xiao Dong openly came to the meeting to discuss it, indicating that the case has been officially filed.

When Xiao Dong called me, I only frowned, knowing that this old fox would deliberately let me express my opinion.

"Jia Ru, what do you think of this case?"

I glanced at the relevant information projected on the wall and said slowly: "There is no escaping the responsibility of the chemical plant, it is nothing more than a matter of primary responsibility and secondary responsibility. What I am arguing is that the chemical plant should be fully responsible for the sacrifice of the two firefighters and that the corresponding amount of compensation should be paid to the families of the deceased. ”

Xiao Dong raised his eyebrows: "At present, the police have no evidence to prove that this explosion was caused by a chemical plant." ”

I shook my head and said, "It's not about whether there's evidence or not. The chemical plant itself is a hazardous chemical produced, and the risk factor of its explosion is beyond doubt, if the chemical plant alone says that an unknown flame was thrown by an outsider and caused the explosion, can it be determined that the chemical produced by the plant is an explosion source? So why are there still residents living in the surrounding area? Even if there were, shouldn't protective measures be taken to separate contact with the people? ”

Speaking of this, I looked around at my colleagues who had been silent and meditative, looking at the essence through the phenomenon, we are always accustomed to looking at things on the surface without delving into what is underneath.
