Born of humble origins, with a wicked stepmother, a cheating husband, and her company stolen, Xu Zhaodi fought alone for most of her life. Just as she finally managed to divorce the scumbag and rec...
When Wang Yulian and her husband arrived at the village entrance, they were still a step too late. They only saw the back of the bus.
Wang Yulian stood aside and cried silently.
After the car drove away, the two families turned around and left.
There were not many people on the bus, and after the bus moved a few steps, she kept feeling like someone was calling her from behind.
There were frozen window grilles on the car window. She leaned over the window and looked out. It was pitch black outside. She could only see a few figures and nothing else.
Tian Wenjun sat down in her seat and took a deep breath.
It's over...
Later, she fell asleep leaning on Chen Jianguo's shoulder.
When the car arrived at the station, Chen Jianguo went to the window and asked about the bus to the provincial capital.
The bus to the provincial capital only runs once a day recently because there are few people passing through. It has not run today, and there will be another one at six o'clock tomorrow morning.
Chen Jianguo brought Tian Wenjun to the county guesthouse and they both checked into a room.
The woman had seen these two people last time, so this time she didn't ask any questions and just drove away.
The two put their things down, and Chen Jianguo said: "We got up early in the morning, let's sleep a little longer.
Just eat something for lunch, I'll go find Wei in the afternoon, and we'll sit down with him in the evening and ask him to take the bacon."
"OK."
The two of them really slept the whole morning.
Chen Jianguo also wanted to sleep for a while, mainly because he didn’t sleep last night.
Tian Wenjun slept soundly.
At noon, the two of them ate soup dumplings at a state-owned restaurant and then took a walk around the county town.
Actually, there is not much to visit. There are only two streets in the county town, and it takes less than half an hour to finish the walk.
Around three o'clock, Chen Jianguo went to the county party committee.
The old man guarding the door was impressed by Chen Jianguo. When Chen Jianguo opened the window, the old man smiled and said, "Are you here to see Director Xu?"
Chen Jianguo smiled and said, "Uncle, you have a really good memory."
The old man smiled cheerfully and said: "Don't look at my gray beard, I have a very useful brain.
The main thing is that your arse looks so energetic that I can't forget it even if I want to.
Wait, I'll call Director Xu."
"Uncle, he is in the office, right?"
"Yeah, even the first day of the first lunar month is on duty, let alone now?"
The old man called Wei with a smile on his face. He said on the phone, "Director Wei, the guy who came to see you last time is here again."
Wei was reading a book in the office. When he heard this, he knew it was Chen Jianguo who came.
In an instant, he felt the whole office became bright.
"Let him in, I'll come downstairs to pick him up."
"Hello, I'll let him in right away."
The old man hung up the phone and said with a smile: "Young man, you can go in after registering."
"Thank you, sir."
After registering, Chen Jianguo strode into the county party committee.
When Wei came out and saw Chen Jianguo, the corners of his mouth almost split open with a smile.
“Squad leader…”
Chen Jianguo smiled and said, "Stop shouting. I'll come and see you."
"Come with me to the office."
Chen Jianguo: "Is it okay not to go in?"
"Since you're here, come in and have a cup of tea."
Chen Jianguo smiled: "You kid..."
As soon as the two men came in, Wei enthusiastically poured them tea.
"When did you come? Where's your sister-in-law?"
"Your sister-in-law is resting in the guesthouse. Didn't I promise you last time that I would have a few drinks with you after we get into the city? So here I am."
"Look at you, what do you want me to say about you?
Why don't you stay at my house when you come? Why do you insist on staying at a guesthouse? How come you are so rich?"
Chen Jianguo didn't want to cause trouble for anyone bigger than him.
"I've already settled down here, let's wait for next time."
"Next time? I don't know when the next time will be.
You have to follow my instructions tonight, do you understand?"
Chen Jianguo: "Okay, I'll follow your arrangements."
He looked around Wei's office and asked, "Why are you on duty these two days when you have nothing to do?"
"Of course not. I'm on duty even if there's nothing to do, just in case something goes wrong when someone's not around.
Are you going to do it tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?"
"We will take the bus to the provincial capital at six o'clock tomorrow morning and catch the train at noon tomorrow."
“The journey is hard enough.
By the way, they didn't cause any more trouble for my brother, did they? "
"No, this is all thanks to you. Otherwise, I really can't do anything about it."
"Please don't say that. I didn't help you at all. I just helped you with reason."
The two men smiled and chatted for a few more minutes, then they agreed on a place, and Chen Jianguo drank a cup of tea and left.
The great man was in the office, and he just sat there all the time.
Chen Jianguo was still worried about Tian Wenjun, afraid that she would be scared being alone in the guesthouse.
When the other party came, Tian Wenjun was sleeping soundly.
Tian Wenjun was woken up, and Chen Jianguo came in, still feeling cold.
Tian Wenjun: "Did you get anything for them?"
“No, I’ll take it tonight.
If I carry things with me while they are at work, it will easily lead to misunderstandings and be disrespectful to Weiwei.”
Tian Wenjun thought so too. This guy can think of everything and has a very thoughtful mind.
"I was confused after sleeping."
Chen Jianguo pinched the tip of her nose and said, "Do you feel comfortable sleeping now?"
"Yes, it's too cold outside, the quilt is more comfortable."
Tian Wenjun prepared the bacon for Wei and said with a smile: "Both of your comrades are called Wei. There is also a deputy battalion commander in the team who is also called Wei."
"Of course, there are still many people with the same name and surname.
We called this county party committee member Xiao Wei at that time. He had been in the army for only five years.
But the team has been doing that for a long time.”
Isn’t it? Not only that, he’s not the deputy battalion commander either.
The two stayed in the guesthouse until six o'clock, and then they carried their things to the restaurant they had met.
Tian Wenjun was carrying two bottles of wine and two large bags of bread, while Chen Jianguo was carrying a large piece of bacon.
When these two arrived, Wei had already been there for more than ten minutes.
As soon as they entered, Chen Jianguo spoke a few words to the front desk clerk, and Wei heard his voice and came out to greet them.
After not seeing each other for almost a month, Wei Wei felt that Tian Wenjun had seen a lot more.
He seems thinner than before.
Wei smiled warmly: "Squad leader, sister-in-law, you are here, I was just about to come out to pick you up."
Chen Jianguo: "We are here now."
"Come in and sit down."
As soon as they entered, Wei saw that they were carrying so many things and asked, "Why are you carrying so many things just to have a meal?"
Chen Jianguo smiled and said, "It's this bacon that your sister-in-law insisted that I bring it to you.
She said she felt bad about eating the pork you bought a few days ago.
These two bottles of wine and cigarettes are my gifts to uncle. Given our close relationship, I wouldn't bring them to you.
After dinner, you must take it when you leave. If you don’t take it, I won’t come to see you next time.”
Hearing this, Tian Wenjun couldn't help but look at Chen Jianguo again.
This guy never mentioned her, but she was everywhere.
In front of outsiders, they really respect her, give her enough face, and shape her image at all times.
Wei smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I'll take it.
Sister-in-law, you order the dishes. Don’t be polite, just order whatever you want.
Also, I have already said hello to the front desk today, today is my treat."
Tian Wenjun smiled and took the menu: "Okay, I'll order today."
Last time she paid, she ordered all the local dishes.
But today they were treating us, and she couldn't make things difficult for them, so Tian Wenjun ordered two side dishes for them and two other random dishes.
