Chapter 120: What Happened to One Man
Xing Yi stayed in Ma'anshan for a day, and returned to the county seat at noon the next day, just when it was time to get off work, he didn't have time to put things back in the hostel, so he went to the sorting center of the Post and Telecommunications Bureau to pick up Ni Shuzhen first.
"Coming back?" Ni Shuzhen's face was happy.
"I'm back." He said with a smile, "I came back at noon yesterday and went to Ma'anshan first. ”
"Went to see my uncle and aunt? Are they all good? ”
"My mother has a problem with her femoral head, and I can't rest assured, so I went to discuss sending her for a check-up."
"Femoral head?"
"Now I feel pain, I can't walk, and if I continue to develop, I will be necrotic and have difficulty moving."
"So what to do?"
"Surgery to replace the femoral head."
"Then you're going to a big hospital?"
"Provincial doctors are the best."
"Is this a big operation?"
"It's a little big."
"How much does that cost?"
"I consulted with the hospital, more than 20,000."
"That's a lot."
"It's okay, the money is already there."
"Where did you get the money?"
"The stones I brought with me were sold."
Ni Shuzhen looked at his side, a rectangular satin box, and a rucksack. No stones were seen. He asked, "Didn't you take the stone to the fair?" What about stones? ”
He said: "I met someone who was destined, bid 70,000 yuan, and sold it to him." ”
"Seventy thousand?" Ni Shuzhen was dumbfounded.
"Really." Xing Yi smiled.
She wanted to ask, what do you do with taking 70,000? The words swirled in his throat and went back, and if he accidentally asked, he would have a misunderstanding, this person is a money addict, then it is not good.
Xing Yi didn't pay attention to Ni Shuzhen's expression, and said according to his own thoughts: "The pedestal made by the carpenter master in the small village, it can be said that without his skills, this stone cannot be sold at a price, I discussed it with him before, and I have two equal points of income, so I want to give him thirty-five thousand." Yesterday I sent 20,000 to my mother. ”
Ni Shuzhen bit her lower lip, turned around and looked away, and said in her heart, what do you want to do, tell me, did I ask?
After Xing Yi finished speaking, with extremely slow movements, he took out a box, opened it, took out a new mobile phone, and shook it in front of Ni Shuzhen's eyes.
"Ah, the blue phone?"
This kind of palm-sized mobile phone, the leaders of the provincial bureau are special, and the people in the county are only the big brother, and the director of Nafei has one, and at the conference, he took it out and stood next to him like a guard.
Ni Shuzhen looked up at the sky.
Xing Yi knew what she was thinking: "Don't worry, I know, the first base station project report in the county has been approved." ”
"Even if the first one is built, it won't be enough?"
"Yes, to achieve full coverage of urban and rural areas in the county, at least 50."
"Do you know how long it will take to build one?"
"Rest assured, the construction of communication facilities is very fast, every year."
"I hope so."
Next, he told Ni Shuzhen: "I'm going to your house today." ”
Ni Shuzhen said, "Are you ready?" ”
He opened the box and showed Ni Shuzhen the brand-new musical instrument erhu.
"What is this?"
"Bought it for your dad."
He took out two catties of high-grade velvet from the canvas bag.
Ni Shuzhen was surprised: "How do you know what musical instruments my father likes to play and my mother loves knitting?" ”
Xing Yi smiled: "Then you don't have to inquire." Think about it, if I'm going to go into the house with you, can I not get to know your parents in advance? ”
There is also a pair of leather shoes, Xing Yi said: "This is for your brother." ”
Ni Shuzhen said disdainfully: "Don't buy him anything, he doesn't deserve it." ”
"If you don't buy it, I want to communicate with him head-on to make sure that it is convenient to enter and leave your house in the future."
"All day long, I spend all day with that little thug called something, and I don't do good things......"
"If that guy is really a gangster, then he can't be blamed, he made friends carelessly, met someone with bad character, and led the road under his feet step by step, take his time, find a way to cut off the connection between them, and it will change."
"If you don't learn well, you make friends with people, you don't distinguish between good and bad, like a dog, you are instigated by others, you can do whatever you are told to do, and you will cause trouble everywhere."
How can this be compared? You're a sister, and you're always disgusted with it, and it's your duty to help him and pull him back from the brink of danger, and don't do that in the future. ”
At eight o'clock in the evening, Xing Yi followed Ni Shuzhen and entered their house.
Ni's father was watching TV, which was exactly the same as Xing Yi expected.
Xing Yi greeted them one by one very politely.
Ni Shuzhen took the gifts from his hand and handed them to his parents one by one, saying, "Erhu is for my father, and the velvet is for my mother." ”
I don't say who the leather shoes are for, but I just put the box down casually.
Ni's father couldn't wait to open the box and only take out the erhu, and carefully examined the snakeskin, bow, ponytail, and knob. The faucet, seen everywhere, rubbed the rosin, rattled a few times, and gave himself a thumbs up and said, "Good things, it must be very expensive." ”
Xing Yi hurriedly said: "It's not expensive, it's not expensive, I specially asked the master to check it to ensure that the sound quality and timbre are good." ”
"The purpose of my question is to give you the money."
Ni Shuzhen said: "Dad, is it appropriate for you to ask like this?" ”
The father said, "Why is it not appropriate, my brother will settle the account." ”
Xing Yi said: "Uncle, this is what I really send you. As long as you feel that the sound quality and timbre are okay, I am relieved. ”
Mother holds the cashmere thread and can't put it down.
"Look at this velvet thread, the quality is too good, the color is also comfortable, you girl, what your parents like, I don't know how to keep it secret, so I just reveal it to others."
"I don't know where he figured it out."
"What, if you have a heart to do something, you're afraid you won't find a way?"
Ni Shuzhen and her mother carried the velvet thread into the back room.
There were only two men left in the room.
Ni's father snorted at the teacup; "Drinking tea, don't you smoke?"
"Don't suck."
"Well, that's fine. Where do you work? ”
"Working at a hydropower plant."
"What for?"
"Engage in maintenance."
"Electrician or fitter?"
"Both."
"The pay is high?"
"It's not too high, it's passable."
"So you're frugal in your life?"
Xing Yi didn't speak, he spent nearly a thousand yuan to buy these things, which was unimaginable for a person like them. He replied with a smile.
Ni's father frowned slightly, his daughter talking about friends is a major event in the family, and her daughter is a smart person, but there are times when she is confused, so as a parent, she has the obligation and responsibility to help her daughter figure out the situation, and the questioning needs to continue.
"Where are your parents, what are you doing?"
Xing Yi said that his father was doing farm work in the countryside, and his mother did nothing, and was idle at home cooking for his father.
"They've been in the country all the time?"
"When I was very young, they lived in the city and then went down."
"What about you? Also with it? ”
"I studied in the city, on and off."
Glance out of the corner of your eye.
"Relatives in the city?"
"Nope."
"Then, how do you live alone?"
"Come back from school and cook and eat by yourself."
Saying that, Aunt Quan came in, and when she saw Xing Yi, she couldn't help but grin: "Okay, what did I say?" Today's young people are very different from us back then, very generous, you see, both parties must be satisfied, and they come home together, and they come to see their parents first, which is right, they know etiquette. I didn't come empty-handed, I entered the door empty-handed, and the pigs and dogs didn't smell it. ”
