Chapter 45: Zhang Hong's Transformation
"How can good people fall for evil?" I say.
The third uncle laughed twice and leisurely lit a cigarette: "My nominal apprentice is not ordinary, and my future achievements may be above me." ”
"Zhang Hong?" I was surprised.
The third uncle smiled: "It's not sure if it's him now, you might as well go to Xiaoxingjia Village to keep an eye on, if Zhang Hong really does it, he will definitely not kill just one, according to this kid's temperament, how can he be beheaded all over the house." ”
"No, Zhang Hong only learned the spell of a clay villain, how did he get such great ability." I say.
The third uncle said: "That's why I let you keep an eye on him." This kid is not ordinary, I guess he has had an adventure during this time. ”
Hearing what the third uncle said, I couldn't sit still and wanted to call Zhang Hong and tell him what the third uncle said. Think about it, this back and forth, how can it be like me stirring up trouble in the middle. Now it is not certain that the mother-in-law jumped into the river was done by Zhang Hong, and if he took 10,000 steps back, even if he did it, the third uncle didn't seem to care too much.
I have always felt that the third uncle is like a hero of the rivers and lakes, especially righteous, but after contact during this time, it can be seen that he is not a good person, in addition to being closely related to himself, even if others kill people and set fires, it has nothing to do with him, even if he is his own apprentice.
On this day, the old thunder head came to me and brought a stranger. After being introduced by Lao Leitou, I learned that this person was the assistant director of the paint factory in the town. The assistant asked me straight to the point, Mr. Wang, do you have a job now?
I didn't know what he meant, so I told you the truth, no.
The assistant said: "That's the case, there was a riot in the social drama crowd that day, and you used a firecracker to stabilize the situation. This made our director Hou see it, and he took it to heart, saying that you had an idea and was a manufacturable material. It just so happens that I came to your village today to do business, and by the way, I would like to ask if you have a job, if you don't have it for the time being, you can come to our factory. ”
I laughed: "I don't have a job, but what can I do when I go?" ”
"We definitely can't let you be a worker," the assistant said: "Our factory is very large, the organization is very complete, the propaganda department, the planning department, logistics, sales everything, when the time comes, it depends on the arrangement of the factory director." ”
"Alright, alright, I'll do it." After being at home for so long, it's time to go out and find a job.
The assistant asked me when I would report to the factory. I asked him if he was in a hurry, and if he wasn't, he still had something to deal with at home, and he wanted to go over in a week.
The assistant nodded and said yes. This matter is considered settled.
I was so happy that after I sent them away, I told my mother and sister about my work, and they were very happy.
When I told the third uncle, the third uncle snorted: "You are satisfied with a broken factory?" As I said earlier, if you learn from me and follow me, I will definitely bring you out and become a figure on the Tao. ”
I was completely dead to the dark witchcraft industry, so I laughed and said, I am stupid, I am not suitable for this, it is better to find a job and live a good life.
The third uncle shook his head and didn't force me.
The reason why I wanted to wait a week was to send Zhang Hong away and go to work with peace of mind.
Now I have no worries, I have an iron rice bowl waiting for me, and my life is more calm.
In the past few days, I have nothing to do in Zhang Hong's house, we eat and drink as usual, and I don't see anything unusual about him. Zhang Hong's affairs were almost handled, the house was almost empty, he and I handed over the land, there was an apple orchard in the field that was about to be harvested, and Zhang Hong simply gave it to me.
I wanted to give him money, but he was adamant about not doing it.
We moved the dinner table to the shed in the orchard and drank beer while the cool breeze blew. Zhang Hong explained to me the types of apples and the months of ripening. I was troublesome, and I had to go to work in the town, so I planned to rent out the apple orchard after the apple harvest.
We were chatting when we heard crying outside. I glanced at him, and when I walked out of the shed, I saw Zhang Hong and his wife sitting on the ground crying, and they were still wrapped around the filial piety belt of someone in the family who had passed away.
Zhang Hong hurried over and reached out to hold his wife.
His wife took a step back and looked at him viciously: "Zhang Hong! ”
Zhang Hong was a little inexplicable: "What are you crying for, what's wrong, who passed away?" ”
"You pretend again!" His wife got up from the ground, her hair was scattered, and the white filial piety belt was floating in the wind.
"My mom died, my dad died, three days, they both died!" His wife shouted at the top of her voice, and her voice was extremely sharp. The last few words were almost uttered by crying blood, and they sounded terrifying.
It's someone's family matter, and I can't intervene. I silently took a step back and saw what Zhang Hong would do.
Zhang Hong said sincerely: "I really don't know. How did my mother-in-law and my father-in-law pass away? ”
His wife was a little confused, looked at him stupidly, and said, "Didn't you do it?" Zhang Hong helped her into the shed.
I coughed, "Otherwise, I'll go first." ”
"Don't, don't, you stay." Zhang Hong said gently but firmly.
I don't want to go, and I'm a bunch of mysteries about it.
We went into the shed and I sat in the corner and listened to them.
Zhang Hong poured wine for his wife, took a clean towel, and wiped her face. Her wife was really a little confused, and it took a long time to say, "You didn't do it?" ”
"Don't dare to joke about this," Zhang Hong smiled bitterly: "How did they pass away?" How could such a situation occur in such a short period of time? ”
His wife cried again: "My mother jumped into the river on the day of the social drama, and when my father heard the news, he didn't come up in one breath, he had a cerebral hemorrhage, and he was sent to the hospital for treatment for two days, and he left." Woo, our family is finished. ”
Zhang Hong sat next to his wife, hugged his shoulders again, held his hands and rubbed them, and comforted her vigorously.
The woman let her guard down completely, and wailed in his arms.
Zhang Hong sighed: "Can't we live a good life, you have to do it, and you have to do it to this point." ”
His wife sobbed and said, "My mother died so strangely that her body has not been recovered until now." After a few days, my father was cremated, there was no way to bury him, and the old couple was going to be buried in a tomb, but my mother's whereabouts are now unknown, and the tomb cannot be sealed, so I can only temporarily store my father's ashes in the columbarium at that time. Our family, all say, all say......"
Zhang Hong said gently: "What do you say? ”
"You are responsible for the death of my parents...... his wife said intermittently.
Zhang Hong was a little annoyed: "Isn't this nonsense!" I don't have that much ability, and I wouldn't do anything like that. You ask Qiangzi, on the day my mother-in-law's club played into the river, I didn't go at all, and I stayed at home all the time. ”
I can't be sure if Zhang Hong went, anyway, I really didn't see him at the time.
I nodded, affirming what he said.
Zhang Hong said: "My father-in-law's heart was not very good, and he was overly excited when his wife passed away, and he passed suddenly, which makes medical sense." Wife, believe me, I really don't know about this. You wait. He patted his wife's hand and went out.
We don't know why he's going. His wife and I didn't have anything to say, and the atmosphere was awkward.
His wife has been bowing her head and sobbing, babbling and crying, I am so blocked, and I am embarrassed to say anything, so I can only hold back my breath and stay depressed.
About ten minutes later, Zhang Hong came back, holding a stack of money in his hand and stuffing it into his wife's hand: "My mother-in-law and father-in-law have passed away, and my son-in-law Banlaer should go over to take a look, but now your family doesn't want to see me, you take this money first, if you need me, speak!" ”
His wife cried "wow" and hugged him tightly: "Zhang Hong, let's not divorce, okay." Now that my father is gone, my mother is gone, so I'm pointing at you. ”
Zhang Hong hugged his daughter-in-law and cried: "Don't leave, don't leave, we won't leave." ”
I saw this embarrassment and coughed: "Okay, good, bless you." I suddenly remembered something: "Zhang Hong, aren't you going to leave here?" ”
Zhang Hong gave me a blank look, blaming me for being too talkative, and his wife looked up at him. Zhang Hong said: "I want to get out of here and go out for a walk, but my heart has been too blocked recently." ”
His wife's heart is really big: "Husband, otherwise you can take me with you, and we both go out." can not only distract the heart, but also re-cultivate the relationship, let's start from the beginning. ”
Zhang Hong smiled: "Okay, start again." ”
The two of them lingered there, and I couldn't afford to be a light bulb, so I hurried out of the shed. sighed for a while, the two were really inseparable.
But when I went out and thought about it, I felt that it was wrong, how did Zhang Hong's attitude change so quickly? And the polite ones are a little different from him.
At this time, a person came from the front to greet me, he was a fruit farmer hired by Zhang Hong's family, and his name was Chen Sanping. We chattered, Zhang Hong already knew about the transfer of the orchard to me. Chen Sanping discussed with me that he wanted to contract the orchard for the next few years. I said no problem, I'm worried that no one will take over.
Chen Sanping gave me a cigarette and said that the relationship between our buddies is easy to negotiate, and I will find an opportunity to finalize the contract.
We talked for a while, he was going to the orchard, I grabbed him and said, "Zhang Hong and his wife are here, the two are lingering, don't go over to disturb, leave some private space." ”
Chen Sanping smiled: "I've seen his wife, a beauty, I heard that he was cuckolded?" ”
I glared at him and told him not to talk nonsense.
Chen Sanping didn't care, and continued to laugh: "I heard that his wife and two younger sisters are also smart, and I am still single, I don't know if there is a chance." ”
