Chapter 423 Green Hat Melon 2 My brother-in-law has already taken the knife, why does he...
The bastard who was having an affair was none other than Luo Chui's eldest son-in-law, Zhao Yunxiang, the workshop foreman who worked in the non-staple food factory.
It just so happened that Deng Xinglong's brother-in-law also worked in the same factory, so the two knew each other.
Deng Xinglong didn't understand. Zhao Yunxiang wasn't that handsome and had a bad reputation in the factory, so why were there always women approaching him?
Could it be that he has some unknown strengths?
But the most urgent thing is to treat the wound first. The wooden board that sealed the window just fell and scraped his armpit, causing it to bleed and it hurt like crazy.
Deng Xinglong struggled to stand firm, pretending that he didn't see the wild mandarin ducks at the dock, and turned to go to the shelf to look for iodine.
Because the workers at the dock often suffered external injuries, the health center would bring a box of iodine disinfectant or something like that every few days to Deng Xinglong to sell on their behalf in order to make it easier for them to treat their wounds.
Every account had to be verified with the health center in the end, so Deng Xinglong took the iodine and did not forget to write his name and the current date on the account book.
While he was busy tending to his wounds, Zhao Yunxiang came over, leaned over the window, and asked with a cold face, "Is that Old Deng? Why are you still here so late today?"
Deng Xinglong smiled and said, "I was trying to catch a mouse, but I used too much force and fell down."
It would be strange if Zhao Yunxiang believed it, but what Old Deng said was considered to give him face. His expression relaxed a little. He took out a cigarette from his trouser pocket and handed it to Deng Xinglong. Deng Xinglong hesitated for a moment, but still took it, lit it, and continued to fiddle with his wound.
Seeing that he was a master at pretending to be deaf and dumb, Zhao Yunxiang said, "I heard that your cigarette supply is good. I'll buy from you in the future."
What that means is, give some hush money in exchange for peace in the world.
Deng Xinglong smiled and said, "No problem, no problem."
Zhao Yunxiang breathed a sigh of relief and, to show his sincerity, immediately bought a Yuxi and gave five more dollars.
He waved his hand in a feigned generosity: "Thanks, Old Deng. No need to look for it."
Deng Xinglong didn't say anything in the end, he just felt nauseous.
What is wrong with this world? The man from one family steals the woman from another family, and the man from that family hooks up with the woman from another family.
Can't you just live a peaceful life?
Having caused so many scandals, you will suffer the consequences sooner or later.
He counted the money angrily, not a penny less, and took out the extra five dollars as his own pocket money.
After Zhao Yunxiang and the woman walked away, Deng Xinglong sealed the windows again, locked the shop door, and went home.
He lived nearby, and it took him about ten minutes to walk back. When he got home, he immediately started gossiping with his wife Chen Ke: "Hey, wife, you know, I just saw the wife of the old Yang family in the back street fooling around with that bastard Zhao Yunxiang at the dock."
Chen Ke sneered as if he was listening to a joke, "You just found out?"
"Ah?" Deng Xinglong was dumbfounded. "You knew this a long time ago?"
"Nonsense, you went to make a nest a few nights ago and it was raining. I ran into you when I was bringing you a raincoat, but that beast Zhao Yunxiang knelt down and called me aunt and begged me to keep it a secret, so I didn't tell anyone." Chen Ke lied. She actually received a hush money, a full ten dollars.
She didn't say anything because of the money, but she didn't expect that Lao Deng would encounter the same thing today.
She deliberately tried to trick him, saying, "Actually, I didn't want to protect him at first, but he was so anxious that he actually wanted to give me money. Could I take it? What would happen then? I could only agree reluctantly."
Deng Xinglong laughed: "You are stupid, why don't you take the money?"
This is what Chen Ke was waiting for. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Did he give you money?"
Deng Xinglong's words were on the tip of his tongue when he realized something was wrong and quickly withdrew them. However, he still slipped his tongue and said, "Then you must—you must not accept it."
How could Chen Ke not know him? As soon as he saw his dodging gaze, he knew he was lying and immediately held out his hand: "Behave yourself and take out the money. I just ran into him, and he said he gave you fifty."
"He's talking nonsense. He clearly only gave me five dollars!" Deng Xinglong realized something was wrong as soon as he said that. Looking at Chen Ke's smug look, he had to admit defeat.
There is always something that can defeat something else.
Think about Deng Xinglong. He has been doing business for a while and has a very close relationship with the boatmen at the dock. Everyone says that he is good at business and can make people happy. But why is it that he always fails when it comes to his wife?
Oh, forget it, just hand it over to her. She’s the wife I chose, what else can I do?
He carefully turned out the money hidden under his belt. They were all ten-cent and fifty-cent notes. When he took them in his hand, they were all in a mess. He sorted them out neatly and pressed them under his belt for a while. Now they were neatly arranged.
Just like him, Lao Deng, in front of his wife, he can only be humble and treat himself as a docile kitten.
But there are benefits to paying the money. His wife will let him see what true tenderness and gentleness are.
Afterwards, he smiled foolishly, wishing he could run into Zhao Yunxiang every day.
I don’t know if God heard his wish, but after that, he would always catch Zhao Yunxiang cheating on his wife every few days, and it was always with the same woman.
As for why Zhao Yunxiang came to the dock, it was easy to understand. First, there were not many ships docking at the dock at night, and the entire dock was their playground. Second, it cost money to get a room at the guesthouse, and it was not easy to get one. You had to have a reasonable reason, and people from outside the area even needed a letter of introduction. How could Zhao Yunxiang, a cheating man, get these things? Naturally, it would be better for him to find a place with fewer people and less trouble.
The pier is the perfect choice.
There are many piles of goods here, which can block each other's sight, so there is no need to worry about exposing your body for a moment.
Even if you are discovered, you can quickly escape and hide, or if all else fails, you can jump into the river. In short, the dock does have many advantages.
The only bad thing is that the duty room of the water police station is nearby. Fortunately, the dock is very quiet at night and nothing major happens, so the police officers on duty are usually asleep. As long as Zhao Yunxiang and the others move quietly, they will not be noticed.
But this made Deng Xinglong worried again. He still wanted to catch the saboteurs. Every time he made the nest, he always got nothing. It was so frustrating.
But ever since he discovered Zhao Yunxiang's affair, he has been unable to take any action. If a fight breaks out, Zhao Yunxiang and his mistress will surely be discovered. How will Deng Xinglong collect hush money in the future?
I can only give up.
That day, Yao Zhizhi drove back in the sunset and saw Lao Deng sitting by the river and fishing, sighing.
She called out, "Brother Long, did you catch anything big today?"
Deng Xinglong turned back weakly and waved his hand: "Next time."
Yao Zhizhi couldn't help laughing. In fact, she knew everything that happened at the dock and the convenience store. She just didn't want to cause any trouble and disturb her rare vacation.
She smiled and said, "Okay, I'll wait for your good news."
As a result, what you feared came true. Three nights later, Yao Zhizhi was sleeping soundly when someone suddenly knocked on the door frantically, shouting "Director Tang, help!"
Tang Fengyuan quickly got up and opened the door. Ning Zhengrong was afraid of danger, so he turned on the flashlight and followed.
After opening the door, the young wife knelt down in front of Tang Fengyuan, hugged his knees and cried, "Director Tang, please save my sister. She really had no choice. She didn't want to fool around with Zhao Yunxiang."
Tang Fengyuan quickly pulled his young wife up and said, "What's the matter? Please speak slowly."
As she said this, she led the young wife into the yard, and the young wife began to sob and tell the whole story.
The older sister who had the accident was the eldest in the family. She had been treated like a servant by her parents since she was a child, and all the hard and dirty work was done by her. When she came home from school, the first thing she did was cook. After cooking, she had to sweep the floor and the yard, clean her younger brother's bowls and chopsticks, set them aside, and serve him the meal. She also had to share half of the few greasy dishes in the house with him in advance. The rest of the food was not given to the other girls, and of course, not to her mother either. All the greasy and nutritious food was left for her father and younger brother.
Even if the girls are drooling with greed, it won’t work.
Later, as the other sisters grew up, the eldest sister's burden was slightly lighter. Correspondingly, the other sisters had to help with housework, farm work, take care of their younger brothers, and serve their father.
The whole family has two boys and seven girls. It can be summarized in one sentence: the father and brother enjoy a good life, while the mother and sisters have a miserable life.
Fortunately, the young wife was the youngest among the girls, only one year older than her younger brother. When she was needed to provide labor, her other sisters had all married and could support her parents' family, so she did not suffer any hardship.
But she was actually raised by her eldest sister, just like her younger brother.
So when she saw her sister being caught having an affair by her brother-in-law and her brother-in-law making a fuss, she had to secretly run away from the scene and call for help.
After hearing this, Tang Fengyuan still didn't understand: "But what does the suffering your sister went through in her childhood have to do with her affair?"
The young wife cried, "Director Tang, think about it, my sister needs to support her parents' home, so my brother-in-law has a problem with that. My brother-in-law was angry, so he beat my sister and even kicked her when she was pregnant. He kicked her and she had a miscarriage, and she almost died. Later, my sister couldn't give birth, so my brother-in-law simply found a woman outside and gave birth to the child. Don't you think my sister is wronged? My sister didn't want this to happen. She was so angry for a while, and Zhao Yunxiang was so sweet-mouthed and could make women happy, so she... Director Tang, please, save my sister. My brother-in-law has already taken a knife, and he is not a good person himself. Why does he want my sister's life!"
Tang Fengyuan sighed silently. Fate was sometimes really cruel. Why did he let that woman's life become more and more miserable?
Okay, it’s late at night, and a younger sister is crying out for her elder sister. Tang Fengyuan is not a heartless person, so he can’t just ignore it.
She turned around, took a bowl of water, and handed it to the young wife: "Drink some water, I'll go into the house to change into my uniform and then go with you."
As she was speaking, she realized something and turned around. Oops, the person handing her the water was none other than her gossipy daughter-in-law.
Tang Fengyuan was at a loss for words and asked, "Why, you want to go too?"
