"It's okay...... Don't worry too much...... My mom is still hiding it from me...... Probably not a big problem either. ”

This is what Fang Zixin said on the phone.

Obviously uneasy, but self-comforting.

-

The hot and dry early autumn sun at noon shines brightly on the window glass.

Bai Mang had already boarded the bus, and only half of the seats in the carriage were occupied. A skinny, lewd man huddled next to her, his body clinging to her.

Bai Mang glanced at him and discussed politely: "Dude, move?" ”

The man turned a deaf ear and deliberately posted it to her.

"Excuse me—are you deaf?"

The man hung the earplugs, still ignoring her, leaning next to her, his hands still falling towards her thighs—

Bai Mang quickly grabbed the man's arm and clasped it. Under the man's unexplained eyes, he pushed him and threw the man from his seat to the middle aisle with one kick.

"Oops!" The man fell to the ground and cried out in pain, "You...... O barbarians! ”

Bai Mang didn't say a word, regardless of the discussion of the people around him, put on his backpack, and stepped off the bus.

When she got off the train, there was a round of high-fives in the carriage. Bai Mang looked back, and someone pushed the window and gave her a thumbs up: "The woman is amazing!" ”

Bai Mang waved his hand, did not look back, and strode out of the passenger station.

-

[This world is not just bright colors, even in the dark, you have the ability to protect yourself. 】

This is what Bai Hui said to her, Bai Mang doesn't know if Bai Hui has experienced darkness back then, and then she will become what she looks like later.

This time she was going to go back to Cloud City, just to see if she could meet Bai Hui, but Ding Jingkai suddenly had an accident.

Let's go to Ningshi.

She didn't know why Ding Jingkai was detained.

But if Ding Jingkai really went in...... In the future, if she wants to communicate with him about something, it will be very inconvenient.

-

Bai Mang is carpooling with others and returning to Dening City.

Fang Zixin picked her up at the north gate of the rose garden, and then took her to Da Meng's room on the second floor.

Da Meng closed the door, took two bottles of water and handed them to Bai Mang and Fang Zixin.

Fang Zixin unscrewed the cap of the bottle, poured half a bottle of water with a snort, and said with a red face: "Lao Ding may really be in trouble this time." ”

When Fang Zixin was in a hurry, one sentence after another, each word was like a gun with a stick bubbling out, and the speed of speech was fast. The hardest words to understand are those that speak quickly but are messy.

Bai Mang could barely understand.

Lao Ding was detained for bribery in business, and he was sentenced to a few years.

Fang Yuhuan had already looked for the Lin family several times, but Lin Chunsheng was closed, and Ding Mingwei also spoke coldly to her. This week, Fang Yuhuan consulted more than one lawyer, and the conclusion was: There is nothing to be done about the evidence to be solid, so he can only strive to behave well and reduce his sentence.

There are some things that can only be said that once a person is unlucky, he can choke to death by drinking water.

Before Bai Manglaiding's house, Dajing Cement faced two major suspension and rectification notices on the grounds of "serious dust hazards" and "high occupational hazards".

The loan of 30 million yuan was rectified, but the result still did not meet the requirements of the relevant departments to approve production. Ding Jingkai also had no choice, so he found Lin Chunsheng, and Lin Chunsheng matched him to find a leader of a relevant department.

Ding Jingkai paid millions in bribes, and the cement plant was finally able to resume work.

As a result, not long ago, the leader was reported for investigation, and Ding Jingkai was also implicated.

Dajing Cement also has a partner, who is from Ding Mingwei's side, who withdrew from the partnership half a year earlier.

In order to protect himself, the man confessed the internal ledger. Most of these fast-growing industries do not have detailed accounts, and even the financial risks of the bosses have not yet been established.

If the money comes in too quickly, it is easy to forget that there are great risks behind every transaction of business.

In short, that day Lan University opened, Fang Yuhuan's subconscious worry happened -

Dajing cement has collapsed.

In addition, Ding Jingkai was also compensated.

……

"Woo!" Fang Zixin leaned on Bai Mang's shoulder and wanted to cry without tears.

As the most rude and simple person in this family, he can figure out this stall, indicating that things may really have no room for maneuver.

"So Uncle Ding will really go in?" Da Meng asked worriedly.

"yes, my family may be going bankrupt." Fang Zixin squeezed her eyes with difficulty, but no tears came out. She has a rough personality, but she is not weak.

Over the years, whoever goes bankrupt and whose family goes in, Fang Zixin has heard a lot. There are many people who are good at home. What her mother has always said: Splashing wealth is a puddle of water, once splashed on the ground, it will soon disappear without a trace.

Like their family, this toss is not a toss...... Even though it was difficult to accept it in her heart, Fang Zixin quickly accepted the facts and was ready to face it.

Now the only one in the family who doesn't know is Ding Longze.

I am afraid that it will affect Ding Longze's studies.

Though...... Whether Ding Longze's studies have been affected or not, it doesn't seem to have much to do with it.

"Hey!" Fang Zixin looked depressed, looked at Bai Mang, and said something sincere: "I have lived a good life for five or six years. Bai Mang, you are more miserable, and you have been a rich second generation for two months. ”

Bai Mang: "......" cough!

I really didn't expect that Fang Zixin would still think about her at this time.

“…… Oh, too. Da Meng, who was sitting cross-legged, looked at Fang Zixin, and then looked at Bai Mang, and for a while he didn't know who he sympathized with more.

Compared with Bai Mang, Fang Zixin is more difficult to face the gap, but Bai Mang is also miserable.

has been a rich second generation for two months......

Fang Zixin has accumulated a lot of luxury brand-name bags, figures, jewelry and watches; Bai Mang really didn't get any benefits, it was purely a trip to the rich experience camp. When the time comes, goodbye completely.

That's not it......

She also made a little profit, isn't that more than 200,000 gift money?

"My family is bankrupt, there's nothing left, it's over!" Fang Zixin decided to put it badly, and the person collapsed on the carpet, in the shape of a large character.

Bai Mang and Da Meng looked at each other.

"This time for Xinzi, it's a major setback." Da Meng said wistfully, "I used to eat Xinzi's food, but in the future, I may become the one who wants to treat me." ”

Bai Mang agreed and nodded.

At this moment, Fang Zixin sat up from the ground and grabbed Da Meng's hand: "Meng, I remember your words." ”

Da Meng immediately snorted, her nouveau riche friend went bankrupt, and she also felt so painful.

-

Things may not be as bad as Fang Zixin thought.

Fang Yuhuan learned that his daughter knew, and he knew that Bai Mang would also know about this "change".

Some mines, buried underground, will explode; There are some things that will be known if they are hidden. It's better to do it.

In the afternoon, Ding Longze came back from make-up class, and it happened that Bai Mang was also at this house, and Fang Yuhuan decided to have a showdown.

……

In the evening, Aunt Wang had already prepared a meal, which was still nutritious and delicious: Ding Longze's favorite honey-glazed chicken wings, fried fried shrimp with eggs that Fang Zixin liked, and Ningshi's special stew that Bai Mang liked.

While the dishes and chopsticks were not moved, Fang Yuhuan sat in the main seat, faced the three children, and held an internal family meeting.

"I originally wanted to hide it for a while, but this time Bai Mang also came back, and I couldn't hide the matter, so I told you-"

Fang Yuhuan's speech still has the style of being the master, with foreshadowing and ideas, not only explaining things clearly, but also not having that kind of bad attitude. How does it sound...... That's it?

Isn't Lao Ding arrested...... Forced to go into retreat for a few years?

A sense of déjà vu.

This is indeed the case -

But the rich emotions still caused Fang Yuhuan to not sleep well for several days in a row, but people's elasticity is huge, and if you really accept the facts, you still need a solution.

The rainstorm always stops, and there is always a good day after the rain.

“…… So how many years will Lao Ding be sentenced? Ding Longze asked Fang Yuhuan.

Fang Yuhuan: "The preliminary verdict is six or seven years, and the lawyer will try to strive for five years." ”

Ding Longze: "Be sure to find the best lawyer." ”

Fang Yuhuan hummed heavily.

Ding Longze spread his hands and said: "I knew that there was something at home recently, and today when I saw Mang Mangbing come back, I guessed that it was not far from ten." Ding Longze pretended to be relaxed in his tone, and he was a little unacceptable before, and calmed down after a few words.

From beginning to end, he was not as devastated as Fang Zixin.

He is still in high school, and many things are not very specific, and his mother also said that although he can't overspend in the future, there is still surplus food at home.

Ding Longze thought about it, comforted his family and said: "The tax that should be paid is made up, if the cement factory is not easy to operate, let's sell it, my sister will graduate from college this year, and I will soon become an adult, and there is no burden on the family, don't worry too much about us." Mangbing is even more powerful, and Lan University will not worry about graduation work......"

"yes!" Ding Longze looked at them and blinked.

"I'm looking for an internship at night!" Fang Zixin said without thinking, not how much she wanted to find a job, but compared to reading books every day in a college promotion, finding an internship unit is not so scary. It's a little easier.

Bai Mang glanced at Fang Zixin, and roughly understood Fang Zixin's thoughts.

I can't wake up a person who pretends to be asleep, and I can't force a person who pretends to be blind to read a book and take an exam.

Bai Mang paused, and also said to Fang Yuhuan: "Auntie...... You don't have to give me living expenses every month, I don't lack money, and you have no obligation to support me. ”

She would say this, it was after the start of school that Fang Yuhuan transferred money to her twice. It's all on the grounds that Lao Ding wants to give her living expenses.

…… Compared with Bai Hui, Fang Yuhuan seems to want to be her mother more.

is also better at being a mother.

“…… You're good, you're so good! ”

Unexpectedly, the three children were quite powerful at a critical time, Fang Yuhuan had mixed feelings in his heart, and his face also showed relief.

However, the situation at home is really not as bad as she said before.

Lao Ding's entry was an accident, but it was expected that Dajing Cement would close down and go bankrupt again for rectification-

This kind of routine of capital devouring shrimp is not only happening in her family.

To survive in the world, we must understand a truth: accept what you see.

Instead of struggling to operate, it is better to negotiate a good price to sell it while the wind is still unclear. Keep the family stable.

A table of good dishes, no one has put down chopsticks for a long time.

Ding Longze looked at a table of good dishes, sighed and said, "I don't know how Lao Ding is eating in it?" ”

Fang Zixin originally wanted to eat chicken wings, but when she heard Ding Longze ask like this, she was embarrassed to clip it. Even if you have an appetite, how can you have the face to nibble on chicken wings.

Fang Yuhuan looked at the two biological children, a non-biological Bai Mang, and immediately cheered up, with an optimistic and open-minded look on his face: "Don't be stunned, your dad can't eat the food, let's eat it well." ”

Ding Longze: "......"

Fang Zixin: "......"

White Mang: ......

She said that Fang Yuhuan had some energy in her body. If it is for the sake of the family, Fang Yuhuan and Ding Jingkai will go in one. She also voted for Ding Jingkai.

Because...... Relatively useless.

-

At night, Ding Longze and Fang Zixin both went upstairs to sleep, Fang Yuhuan was still reading the account book in the living room, and Bai Mang walked out of the room in a pair of pajamas.

Fang Yuhuan smiled at her: "Don't worry about your father, he still socializes outside every day, and he really goes in retreat and cultivates for a few years, and he also intends to maintain his health." Don't think I'm joking...... It's really a fact, it's just that a big brother in this community was pulled in because of collusion, and it took three years, and he just came out two days ago. The black doesn't slip in, and the white chubby comes out. ”

Fang Yuhuan deliberately laughed, and Bai Mang cooperated twice.

There was one thing that she didn't quite understand.

Now there are only two people in the living room, she and Fang Yuhuan, Bai Mang asked directly: "Is the Lin family really clean?" ”

Fang Yuhuan was silent for a while, put away the account book on the table, and said, "The reason why the Lin family can protect themselves is definitely not just that Lin Chunsheng has connections at hand. He was just lucky to be on the right side. ”

Bai Mang understood Fang Yuhuan's words.

Fang Yuhuan said again: "Over the years, your father has no heart, I still have a little brain, and I keep accounts...... But now it's not so bad, isn't it that the cement plant is bankrupt, and there is still new hope in the northwest. Even if Ding Jingkai is according to the lawyer, he will be sentenced to a maximum of six years...... When he came out six years later, he was not yet old enough to receive a pension, and everything was in time. ”

"Bai Mang, Auntie knows that you are a girl who has a clear distinction between right and wrong and is very upright, but what Auntie wants to tell you is. Your dad has been in business for many years, and he really went in this time not because he was a bad person, but because he was simple. He probably still has some expectations for the Lin family in his heart. ”

"Of course, I don't know if he should keep his expectations alive."

"It's really not time for the stone to burn, if I want the jade to burn, it's no problem to pull Lin Chunsheng, but when the time comes, things will only get worse - the Lin family is going to fall, and our family is also the one who backs it."

“…… You are still young now, you just watch slowly, and the person who should come out will definitely come out; Those who should go in will go in sooner or later. ”

Bai Mang listened to Fang Yuhuan say all the good words and hope words, and his heart was not suddenly like a mirror, but it was somewhat clear that Ding Jingkai had started his family all these years and the reason for this change.

Compared to the Ding family, the worst thing has landed, and Fang Yuhuan can sleep peacefully.

Ding Mingwei is a little worried, and it is difficult to continue to sit back and relax......

Unless, the Lin family has already hugged the big tree.

Perhaps, the Lin family may really have a backer-

……

Zhong Ling of the Jiang family invested in a high-standard literary and artistic hotel in Siyue Mountain, Ningcheng, and invited the wives and children in Ning Yuan's club to play in her newly opened hotel for three days during the holiday.

It is also regarded as an activity of the Ning Yuan Club.

The person who ran this event for Zhong Ling happened to be Ding Mingwei.

Ding Jingkai had an accident, Ding Mingwei didn't meet Fang Yuhuan at all in order to avoid suspicion, and even wished that she had changed her surname from her husband's surname to Lin.

Before, for Lin Zhi's injury, Ding Mingwei was already very angry with Fang Yuhuan's temper, although she and Ding Jingkai are related, but in the calculation of long-term survival in the division of interests, Ding Mingwei divided family affection and interests.

Without a little ruthlessness, she can't sit in her current position, and she can't live a good life without a little greed.

There is no chance to become the right and left hand of Zhong Ling of the Jiang family in Ningcheng.

She can become Zhong Ling's right and left hand, not because she is appreciated by Zhong Ling, but because her husband Lin Chunsheng made the right choice.

"This event ...... Do you want to invite Fang Yuhuan? ”

The first time she was in the playground, Ding Mingwei naturally came to the Jiang family to discuss with Zhong Ling, and then mentioned Fang Yuhuan.

"She is a member, and the activities of the Ning Yuan Club still have to call her......" Zhong Ling has an average attitude towards Fang Yuhuan, and he is not very familiar with it, and he does not have as complicated thoughts as Ding Mingwei.

"Hey, but—"

Zhong Ling said coldly: "Don't do stingy things, it's not good to spread out." Joining the association is nominally a sister, and she must be invited to an event, but it's her business whether she comes or not! Zhong Ling took a sip of coffee, and spoke in a very lazy voice, it was the most valuable and listless lady Ding Mingwei had ever seen.

He even suspected that Zhong Ling might have some kind of depression.

Ding Mingwei said stupidly: "There is such a big thing at home, I don't think I will have the heart to come." ”

Zhong Ling ignored this, it sounded too boring.

Ding Mingwei sat in the Jiangjiabei Garden for a while, until she couldn't sit still, and then Zhong Ling casually asked Ding Mingwei: "How old is your daughter?" ”

Ding Mingwei immediately thought a little too much, with a smile on her face, the corners of her mouth grinned, revealing a row of white porcelain teeth, which were also stained with lipstick color, which was very conspicuous.

“24…… Graduate school is almost graduating. He replied with a smile.

"That's two years older than Chuan Yao......" The tone was pulling, very distracted.

Ding Mingwei was a little embarrassed, and looked at Zhong Ling a little hopefully.

Zhong Ling saw Ding Mingwei's thoughts at a glance, and said, "I can't arrange him." But...... His dad can still manage him. ”

Ding Mingwei said modestly and cooperatively: "How can our family have such a lofty heart." ”

Zhong Ling laughed twice.

While speaking, a black SUV drove into the Jiang family's parking space.

It just so happened to be - Jiang Chuanyao is back.
