Chapter 12: The Bridegroom-to-be
The discussion between the two people about the place where the cuckoo settled came to an unpleasant end temporarily, and it didn't take long for them to arrive at Ding Kangqiang's residence, although Ding Kangqiang was famous in the village where he originally lived, he couldn't count them in the city, at best, it was a small rich and peaceful, and the community where his home was located was just an ordinary residential community in City A, not a high-end apartment, let alone a luxury villa, obviously, The cost of buying a luxury villa in the city is much higher than going back to your hometown and building one on top of your homestead.
When Tang Hongye and Du Juan came to the door, Ding Kangqiang was eating at home, his house was relatively spacious, one hundred and dozens of square meters of three bedrooms and two living rooms, the lighting was very good, but the house was a little messy, there were several rectangular flower pots in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the living room, and there were some green onions, garlic seedlings and the like in the flower pots, and a pot in the corner, the cuckoo glanced at the small seedlings here, which seemed to be a little like lettuce leaves.
The person who opened the door for them to let them in was Ding Kangqiang's wife, she looked very honest and good-natured, and she was not very good at talking, as soon as she heard that it was someone from the Public Security Bureau, she smiled at them crampedly, and turned around and went in to report to Ding Kangqiang, Ding Kangqiang was much more sophisticated, sitting at the dining table adjacent to the living room, holding a white porcelain bowl, sucking noodles, hearing his wife run over and tell him about the visit of two strange policemen, Ding Kangqiang was not in a hurry, chewed the food in his mouth unhurriedly, swallowed it slowly, and then steadily took out a tissue from the paper drawer on the side, wiped his mouth, and then pushed the chopsticks and bowls, got up and nodded to Tang Hongye and Du Juan.
"What important things do you have to explain when you two come to our house? Our family has always been law-abiding citizens and has never caused trouble. He said to them in a relaxed tone, not as if he didn't think the two men were here for something extraordinary, "Or are you here to do demographic work?" ”
"Ding Zhengqing is your son, right? Do you usually live together? Has he been away from home lately? Tang Hongye asked.
Ding Kangqiang was slightly stunned, he was originally very sure that no one in his family would cause any trouble, so he didn't care very much, but now being asked about his son still made him involuntarily a little worried.
"Usually we live together, he hasn't been at home recently, go back to our hometown to help me do something, what are you looking for him?" Ding Kangqiang's tone sounded relaxed, but it also had the flavor of inquiry.
Tang Hongye nodded at him: "Can you contact him now?" Here's the thing, we received a report that something happened in your old mansion in your hometown, so we want to confirm Ding Zhengqing's safety. ”
"What's going on? Did someone come up to our house to cause trouble and wreak havoc? Ding Kangqiang sat up straight all of a sudden, and the muscles on his face tensed, "What the hell is going on?" Who went up to our house to make trouble? I knew it! Lao Tzu is a little better, and if he wants to go back to his hometown to build a new house to support his old age, there will definitely be people who can't see my goodness and want to make trouble for me! These people have been struck by lightning! ”
"Don't get excited, let's contact Ding Zhengqing first." Tang Hongye gestured to him.
Ding Kangqiang nodded, got up and took his mobile phone to the side, called up Ding Zhengqing's number and dialed it, and after a while he frowned and turned on the speaker of the mobile phone.
"Hello, the user you dialed cannot be reached temporarily, please dial again later......"
The mechanical female voice kept coming out of the earpiece, and this result was what Tang Hongye expected.
"What's going on, is there something wrong with my son? Did someone in the village do something to my son? Give me a letter! Ding Zhengqing's phone couldn't be dialed, which made Ding Kangqiang a little confused, his expression was very solemn, his brows were tightly locked, and he seemed to have a little hatred.
Du Juan looked at Tang Hongye, Tang Hongye nodded to her, she took out the photo of the scene, handed it over to Ding Kangqiang, Ding Kangqiang only glanced at it, his legs were weak, and the whole person fell down, fortunately there was a chair behind him that Fang was sitting on, otherwise he really fell to the ground, and he couldn't keep his age that he would break his muscles and bones, so it would be really more troublesome.
"Is the person in the photo Ding Zhengqing?" Du Juan had already guessed most of Ding Kangqiang's reaction in his heart, but he still needed Ding Kangqiang to give them a clear answer.
Ding Kangqiang's face changed rapidly in this short period of time, from the initial redness to purple, and from purple to lose blood color little by little, becoming pale, a layer of sweat quickly oozed from his forehead, and he couldn't restrain himself from trembling all over his body, as if he was swinging. When the cuckoo asked him for the first time, he didn't even hear the cuckoo talking to himself, and when the cuckoo asked the second time, he suddenly came back to his senses, but his first reaction was not to answer the cuckoo's question, but to wipe his face with his hand, cheer up his spirits, and shouted at the house.
"you, kid, come out!" He shouted loudly, and his voice still sounded loud.
Ding Kangqiang's wife came out of the house in response and looked at Ding Kangqiang a little blankly.
"I suddenly really want to eat the roast chicken over there in our old house, you take the money to buy one for me, hurry up, I want to eat it right away." Ding Kangqiang opened his mouth to explain to his wife.
"Haven't you finished eating all the noodles, why do you suddenly want to eat roast chicken?" Ding Kangqiang's wife felt a little inexplicable, "A bad old man, and it's not that the little daughter-in-law is pregnant, why do you have to eat whatever you want to eat immediately, and if you want to come out, it's a thing?" ”
"Do you care about it, I just want to eat anyway, you can go quickly!" Ding Kangqiang waved his hand impatiently.
"You said that you old man, you are really enough to toss people, this hot day, let me go so far to buy you some roast chicken......" Ding Kangqiang's wife muttered and complained, although he said it reluctantly, but he turned around and went back to the room to get his wallet out, and went out to the door to change his shoes.
After Ding Kangqiang's wife left, the three of them were silent for a moment, Ding Kangqiang seemed to want to make sure that his wife had left, so he nodded to Du Juan and Tang Hongye: "Yes, the person in your photo is my son." Can I smoke a cigarette? ”
Of course, they will not object to this kind of request, after all, this is Ding Kangqiang's home, and he has just learned of such a serious matter and has been mentally shocked.
Ding Kangqiang took out half a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, his hands trembled so badly that he almost dropped the cigarette case on the ground, and finally smoked a cigarette, and because the flame of the lighter had no way to aim at the cigarette, he couldn't light it, Tang Hongye was anxious for him when he watched from the side, and was about to reach out to take the lighter to light it for him, Ding Kangqiang had already thrown the lighter to the side, crushed the cigarette and threw it on the ground, and then he hunched his waist, held his head with both hands, shook his shoulders, and sobbed, Tang Hongye and Du Juan sighed, did not rush to speak, and gave Ding Kangqiang a little time to vent his emotions.
After a while, Ding Kangqiang finally calmed down a little, he wiped his tears with his hand, and his grief was mixed with more resentment, he raised his head and burst into a foul mouth: "Female horse's!" What are they capable of coming at me! I'm a person who has buried most of my body in the loess! I also picked the head of the things back then, and after holding back for so many years, I finally attacked my son, what kind of hero is this! Poor my son is only in his twenties, just the right age, and he is about to get married! How did you lose your life when you encountered such a thing at such a juncture! ”
