Chapter 150 Zhou Yong in Bai Jie's Eyes
They have known each other for so many years, but rarely talk about their family matters when they get together.
Wei Guoan looked at Zhou Yong with a smile: "My eldest son's name is Wei Youhong, my second son's name is Wei Youzhe, and my youngest son's name is Wei Youcheng..."
When Zhou Yong listened to Wei Guoan's words, his heart was already in turmoil and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
Wei Youhong, a prominent figure in Hong Kong's pharmaceutical industry, is unexpectedly the son of Wei Guoan.
But something was wrong. How come he remembered that the late CEO of Guoan Pharmaceutical was named Wei Qijun?
Did Wei Guoan change his name later?
Thinking of this, Zhou Yong felt that this possibility was not impossible, because people in Hong Kong circles believed in feng shui, and changing names at any time was normal.
Zhou Yong looked at Wei Guoan, but unfortunately he had never met Wei Qijun in person in his previous life. Until the president of Guoan Pharmaceutical passed away, he had never seen his photo in the newspaper.
Chen Pingliang pushed Zhou Yong, who was staring at Wei Guoan, and asked, "What are you daydreaming about?"
After coming to his senses, Zhou Yong felt that life was full of magic. They were completely unrelated in their previous lives, but in this life they actually came together to do business together. Is this God's will?
Zhou Yong was filled with emotion. He raised his glass and said, "I toast to you two brothers."
Wei Guoan and Chen Pingliang raised their wine glasses, the three of them smiled at each other, and took a sip of wine together.
Changing the subject, Zhou Yong asked Chen Pingliang to get a few tons of cement, sand and steel bars.
"Several tons of cement? Several tons of sand, and steel bars. What do you want to do?"
Zhou Yong ate a peanut and said, "I have my own uses."
Chen Pingliang glared at Zhou Yong: "I don't know what you are useful for? The key is what are you used for?"
Nowadays, cement and steel bars are scarce, so Zhou Yong just asks for tons of them. It takes some effort for Chen Pingliang to get so much cement and steel bars.
Zhou Yong was planning to rebuild the Huaixi Village Brigade and the school, and Chen Pingliang frowned when he heard this.
"Even if we build a brigade and a school, it won't take more than a few tons of cement and steel bars, right?"
Zhou Yong glanced at Chen Pingliang who was asking questions and said, "In addition to the brigade and the school, I plan to build a breeding farm and a fish farm..."
He wanted to accumulate political achievements for his father-in-law before the great collapse. By then, even if he was not the team leader of the production team, no one could shake Li Baotian's position.
Chen Pingliang kept nodding his head. He listened to Zhou Yong's words and felt admiration in his heart.
In recent years, Zhou Yong has asked Chen Pingliang for help many times because of the affairs of Huaixi Village. As a young village cadre, Chen Pingliang believes that it is rare for him to care about the people.
The three of them drank and talked happily. Zhou Yong drank a lot, and so did Wei Guoan and Chen Pingliang.
There was a knock on the door and Chen Pingliang's wife came. Zhou Yong looked at the time and realized it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon.
He went back home, and when the cold wind blew outside, Zhou Yong sobered up a lot.
Zhou Yong strolled to the bus station, bought a ticket, and waited for more than an hour before he got on the bus.
On the way back, he slept all the way to Hongqi Commune. After getting off the bus, Zhou Yong went to the bicycle shed, paid two cents for the care of the bicycle, and rode his bicycle home.
As luck would have it, Zhou Yong met Han Ergou and Bai Jie on the way.
If it were Bai Jie alone, Zhou Yong would have ridden his bike straight over there, but Han Ergou was there, and took the initiative to greet him, so Zhou Yong couldn't pretend he didn't see the couple.
Zhou Yong got off his bicycle and asked: "Are you going to the commune?"
Han Ergou walked forward with a smile on his face, while Bai Jie looked at Zhou Yong with empty eyes.
The people who had been used by her time and again were no longer the people she was familiar with.
Through his own efforts and talents, he has gradually emerged and has now become the focus of everyone's attention.
His achievements and status are awe-inspiring, making those who once looked down on him take notice.
Not only did he achieve great success in his career, he also became a highly respected figure.
Thinking of this, Bai Jie's heart tightened. She was wondering, if she had been sincere to Zhou Yong at the beginning, would it be possible for them to be together?
The answer in her heart was maybe, because she was full of confidence in herself at that time.
Unfortunately, it's too late to say anything now, she is stuck in the quagmire and can't extricate herself.
Bai Jie's eyes were red, her thin body trembled slightly, and she could not hide her inner emotions.
Zhou Yong did not notice this scene, but Han Ergou saw it.
Zhou Yong said a few words to Han Ergou, then found an excuse to leave first. When he was far away, Han Ergou saw that there was no one behind him and slapped Bai Jie in the face.
"Bitch, I shouldn't have brought you out. Are you upset when you see my old lover? Don't you see your current behavior? Zhou Yong won't even look at you now..."
Han Ergou trampled on Bai Jie's dignity mercilessly, but she lowered her head without even a word of rebuttal.
The arrogant Bai Jie of the past is no longer there. Now Bai Jie is just a medium for Han Ergou to vent his emotions.
Amidst Han Ergou's constant humiliation, they set out on their journey home. When they got home, Bai Jie didn't even have time to drink a sip of water before Old Lady Han assigned her a lot of work.
Bai Jie worked tirelessly to wash clothes, tears dripping into the washtub.
This scene was seen by her old grandmother, who beat and scolded her. The Han family members watched coldly, but Bai Jie did not fight back or retaliate.
Because she knew clearly the consequences of her resistance, she could only endure this hellish life and was always looking for opportunities to escape from the Han family.
"You slut, why are you crying when I ask you to wash clothes? I can tell from the looks of it that you deserve to be punished..."
Han Ergou's mother has been laughed at by her sisters-in-law because of Bai Jie over the years. Whenever she sees this daughter-in-law, she gets furious.
After getting scolded, Bai Jie squatted in front of the washtub with a numb expression and continued to wash clothes. Han Ergou's mother walked away.
The washed clothes were hung on the clothesline one by one. When the water in the water tank was used up, Bai Jie picked up the bucket and shoulder pole to fetch water.
It was dark, and there were only a few people walking on the road. Bai Jie came to the well and stared at the wellhead in a daze. At this moment, she had thoughts of committing suicide.
But she was unwilling to die like this because she had too many dreams to fulfill.
Xiao Ba, who was on patrol, saw this scene with a flashlight. He ran over in panic and hugged Bai Jie from behind.
"It's better to live a miserable life than to die. Don't do anything stupid..."
Xiao Ba carried Bai Jie aside and let her go, constantly persuading her not to commit suicide.
Thinking of her own grievances, Bai Jie began to cry silently.
Xiao Ba looked around, turned off the flashlight, pulled Bai Jie to a secret place, and left her crying.
Bai Jie cried for a long time before she stopped. Xiao Ba felt very sorry for her and hated Han Ergou in his heart.
In Xiao Ba's heart, it was Han Ergou who ruined Bai Jie. If it weren't for his beastly behavior, how could Bai Jie have fallen to such a state?
"I'm sorry, I lost my composure. Thank you for your guidance. I'm going home."
Xiao Ba grabbed Bai Jie who was about to leave, but she stopped. Xiao Ba felt that his behavior was a bit rash and let go of her hand in a panic.
"I don't mean anything else, don't get me wrong."
In the darkness, Bai Jie looked at Xiao Ba in the faint starlight. The expression on his face was very unnatural.
Bai Jie could see that Xiao Ba was kind to her, but she said nothing. When she was about to leave again, Xiao Ba held her back.
