On the train to Heilongjiang, Xu Bai sat by the window, holding his head with one hand, laughing from time to time.

When she turned her head, she saw Liang Dong looking at herself with the appearance of looking at cultural relics, and she suddenly became excited.

"Brother Liang, what are you doing so close to me, your soul is scared away by you." Xu Bai patted his chest.

Liang Dong pointed at her: "There is a situation." ”

"What's the situation?"

"You have a happy event. Tell Brother Liang and let Brother Liang have fun with you. ”

"Happy event?" Xu Bai didn't understand the meaning for a while.

Liang Dong looked at Xu Bai's belly: "Is there one?" ”

Xu Bai looked down at Liang Dong's gaze, suddenly reacted, and pushed Liang Dong away: "No." ”

Liang Dong touched his chin and continued to gossip: "What is it that made our most beautiful Comrade Xiao Xu laugh at this thief all the way." ”

Xu Bai was slightly embarrassed, cleared his throat and said softly: "It's really nothing, just be in a daze." ”

Liang Dong was a little unconvinced, and after a long 'oh', he turned his face away, and began to talk nonsense with the buddy on the other end of the aisle.

After a while, Liang Dong seemed to feel that it was boring to be so nonsense, and asked someone to borrow a new magazine this morning, and looked at it.

"Yo, what's the situation?" Liang Dong called Xu Bai: "Xiao Xu, look at this." ”

Xu Bai poked his head out, and after looking at the headline, he calmly retracted his gaze and said, "When we were having dinner last night, a lot of reporters suddenly rushed in. ”

Liang Dong said: "It is written that Ding Lie's father used to be an antique shop owner? Xiao Xu, aren't you old acquaintances with him? What the hell is Mr. Ding's father doing? ”

Xu Bai took a sip of mineral water: "Ding Lie's father opened an antique shop for many years, and then suffered a stroke. ”

Liang Dong touched his chin and suddenly stopped talking.

Xu Bai asked, "Brother Liang, what do you want?" ”

Liang Dong came back to his senses and pouted: "It's nothing, I want a good movie." Didn't she buy her own second-hand house near the antique city? ”

"......" Xu Bai: "Brother Liang, you can think of Jiaying here." ”

Liang Dong said with a smile: "Thinking jumps for a while, jumps for a while. ”

After a while, Liang Dongzai carefully read the entire report about Ding Lie, and sighed: "It's not good to be a good person these days, donating money to a cultural preservation agency is a good deed, you look at what the newspapers are writing nonsense." Why is the imagination of these journalists so good? ”

Xu Bai listened to Liang Dong's complaint and didn't say anything more.

In my heart, I replied that this is not imagination, but like the sensitive thinking of media people after years of work.

Often they can catch something wrong faster than the average person.

The train travels all the way, stopping at each stop.

Liang Dong loves both smoking and drinking, and he is afraid of death, so he doesn't even dare to take the plane, so this train is a 21-hour train. It's a pity that they didn't buy a sleeper, so they only sat for an afternoon, and Liang Dong began to regret it again: "Brother Liang's old waist is about to break, Xiao Xu, seriously, don't call Brother Liang next time this kind of work, Brother Liang is old and can't stand the toss." ”

Xu Bai laughed: "No, Brother Liang, next time there is this kind of work, I will call you." ”

Liang Dong was stunned: "Why?" ”

Xu Bai pursed his lips and smiled before saying, "Because you are a talker, with you, you will definitely not be bored all the way." ”

Liang Dong: "......"

——

In the evening, Lu Yueping bought a lot of braised vegetables to watch a good movie.

The brother and sister ate around the table, and Lu Jiaying put a lot of dishes in Lu Yueping's bowl.

"Brother, you must not have eaten well recently, and you feel that your face has lost a lot of weight." Lu Jiaying said.

Lu Yueping took a bite of rice with his head bored: "It's not for you to be angry." ”

Lu Jiaying lowered her head: "Brother, I'm sorry." Liang Dong and I ......"

Lu Yueping interrupted her: "Okay, don't tell me about you and that stingy ghost." is such an adult, my brother is too lazy to care about you, you just have to live your life by yourself, if one day you cry and tell me that the person surnamed Liang bullies you, my brother will not stand up for you again. ”

When Lu Jiaying heard this, her eyes were full of gratitude. She knew that her brother was not speaking well, but the implication was that she agreed.

"Brother, thank you."

"Thank me for what." Lu Yueping put down his chopsticks: "If you want to thank me, thank myself surnamed Liang, so I can afford to look at it once." ”

Lu Jiaying said: "Yes, it's really not easy for a stingy person like him to come out with all his belongings to help me get rid of Shen Haidong's family." ”

Lu Yueping squinted: "If my brother hadn't seen this and dared to hook up with my sister, he would have disabled me." ”

Lu Jiaying suddenly covered her mouth: "Shen Haidong and I broke a hand a few days after we divorced, should this matter be ......?"

Lu Yueping interrupted her for the second time: "I did it." How? ”

"Brother, if you disperse, you will disperse, why do you bother?" Lu Jiaying, who got the answer, began to have no master.

Lu Yueping was full, lit a cigarette and smoked: "I don't blame me." A few days after the grandson divorced you, I didn't know where to hook up with a girl, and in the middle of the night he hugged someone and pressed the road, passing in front of my eyes, blame him for his bad luck. ”

After Lu Jiaying heard this, she was quick for a while: "Brother, you still have to worry about yourself." My sister-in-law hasn't been found for so long, and eighty percent of them have been killed. There are some things that my mother doesn't say to your face, but she says hello to me several times. ”

Lu Yueping's eyes narrowed: "What did the old lady say?" ”

"What else can I say. It's nothing more than those words, you can guess it. ”

"I can't guess, you say yours, word by word, seriously."

Lu Jiaying hesitated for a moment, plucked up the courage and said: "Mom said that I am a girl, and the children born in the future will have the surname of the husband's family." But you're different, you're the male of the old Lu family, and you have to let her hold her grandson seriously. She also said that your first wife could run away with others after giving birth, and this time the wife was pregnant and suddenly disappeared and was killed. She said you can afford to wait, she can't wait. She also discussed with me, you want to get married again, and she will find you someone. And then there's ...... Listen to my mother's meaning, if you are in Hebei, you are just fooling, it is better to go back to your hometown, she will contract the land that others are not willing to plant nearby, and let you go back to farming. ”

When Lu Yueping heard this, he choked on a puff of cigarette and coughed incessantly.

Lu Jiaying patted him on the back, waited for him to relax, and pinched the cigarette butt and asked Lu Jiaying: "Old girl, brother asks you, do you think my brother has to go back to his hometown to farm in this life?" ”

Lu Jiaying said: "There is nothing bad about farming, farmers are more popular these days. When the time comes, you can also dig a fish pond to sell fish, which is really better than hanging around in Hebei. ”

Lu Yueping closed his eyes, and his burly body suddenly jumped up.

He touched Jiaying's head like when he was a child, and said in a deep voice: "There are some things that you don't understand. I, Lu Yueping, will either not go back to my hometown to settle down in my life, if I settle, I will definitely let my wife live a good life and live in a big villa. ”

Lu Jiaying raised her head, her eyes blinking: "Brother, it's not dark yet, don't dream unrealistically." To be a man, you have to be down-to-earth to have peace of mind. ”

Lu Yueping rubbed Lu Jiaying's head a few more times, and then withdrew his hand: "Don't worry about brother, brother knows how to go on his own road in the future." ”

When Lu Jiaying wanted to say something, the mobile phone in Lu Yueping's pocket rang.

He pulled out his trouser pocket, looked at the screen, and didn't answer.

Lu Jiaying asked, "Who hit it?" ”

"Something, I have to go." Lu Yueping took the cigarette case and lighter on the table and left, and took a taxi to the compound.

As soon as Lu Yueping stepped into the front hall with his front foot, Xu Sanduo asked, "Have you read this morning's report?" ”

"What report?" Lu Yueping is not like a cultural person, he reads the newspaper and watches the news at a fixed point every day, and occasionally glances at it a few times, and if he can't look at it, he pulls it down.

Xu Sanduo threw a magazine with high traffic to Lu Yueping.

After he finished reading it, he didn't say anything.

Xu Sanduo walked up to Lu Yueping and patted him on the shoulder a few times: "Ding Lie is afraid that he is really going to turn back." Thanks to my carelessness, he has become a person I trust quite a lot in six years. ”

Lu Yueping asked curiously, "Why do you trust him?" ”

Because since Lu Yueping joined, Xu Sanduo has been treating Ding Lie like his own relatives, not only telling him everything, but also putting all the money in his company.

Xu Sanduo stood behind Lu Yueping arrogantly and said: "Four years ago, Ding Lie and I were looking at the terrain in Shanxi, I was almost bitten by a poisonous snake, it was Ding Lie who blocked me, and he almost died that time. It's going to change you, what will you do to him. ”

The more Lu Yueping listened, the more curious he became, lit a cigarette and asked, "Why was he okay later?" ”

At this time, Xu Sanduo smiled bitterly: "There are many snake farmers nearby, and every family has antivenom and some special medicines. However, I found out a few days ago that Ding Lie bought a snake breeder and deliberately released poisonous snakes. ”

Lu Yueping was stunned, and a section of accumulated cigarette ash fell with a click.

Xu Sanduo said: "Three years ago, I went out to gamble with the casino for a while, and I always lost in the process of playing cards, and I did a little trick when I was not satisfied. Who knew that it was Lao Qianwang who was sitting opposite, and he would see through it at once. At that time, we didn't have much money, and they wanted to cut off my hand, but Ding Lie desperately took me out, and I was slashed in the leg, almost becoming a cripple. ”

Lu Yueping's eyes narrowed even deeper: "Then this shouldn't be premeditated, right?" ”

Xu Sanduo smiled bitterly again: "I have also found out about this matter in the past few days, and the boss behind the casino is Ding Lie." ”

Lu Yueping gasped: "Meaning, Ding Lie started planning these years ago?" ”

Xu Sanduo said in a muffled voice: "Maybe earlier than I imagined." So the third child, the master thought he was not a stupid person, but he still let Ding Lie deceive him. This kind of person is so ruthless that he dares to hurt himself, which is really terrifying. We must plan well to completely cut off this cancer and get our lives back. ”

Lu Yueping's heart was like a mirror, but he couldn't show it, and said with a grin: "I don't understand this, you say, I'll do it." ”

Xu Sanduo said: "There is really something for you to do right now." ”

After that, Xu Sanduo took out very expensive cigarettes from his cigarette case, personally delivered them to Lu Yueping's mouth, and personally lit them for him, and said in his ear: "Go to your hometown in Heilongjiang and try to see if you can find a surname...... of the elderly. ”

Lu Yueping didn't hear clearly for a while: "What's your surname?" ”

Xu Sanduo dipped his fingers in the tea that the housekeeper had brewed for Lu Yueping, and wrote a surname on the table.
