Chapter 67
The patrolling people were frightened by Lu Jinjin and quickly gathered together. This was near the old factory building and there were not many people around. If something really happened, they would be at a loss.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Chen Dali gripped the stick in his hand tightly, raised it to one side, and swallowed his saliva in panic.
Lu Jinjin pointed forward, his voice almost tearful as he spoke, "There was a shadow moving over there just now—"
Several people looked in the direction her trembling finger pointed. It was pitch black everywhere, and the grass near the old factory was so tall that they couldn't make out anything.
Nie Xuesong shouted angrily, "Who is it? Get out!"
"Get out!" Bai Xingzi grabbed her man's clothes tightly and shouted.
Then, several people clearly saw a person slowly walking out from the darkness.
When the man came closer, Xue Zhengchu shone his flashlight on his neck, and then several people could see clearly that it was the "crazy man" who wanted to steal the Xue family's child that day.
Xue Zhengchu frowned and asked him in confusion, "Why are you here? Have the police station released you?"
The man lowered his head and spoke softly, looking cowardly. "The police officer said it wouldn't be okay for me to just stay there, so they let me go and told me to leave. I heard there was a child at the machinery factory who seemed to be adopted, so I went to check it out, but it wasn't him, so I came back."
Nie Xuesong breathed a sigh of relief and pulled Bai Xingzi's hand down from behind him, "That child is not yours, why don't you go home quickly? Why are you hanging around here?" Now is a critical moment, how can he run around randomly.
"I'm leaving tomorrow and have nowhere to stay, so I came here..." The man's timid look made the other men frown.
Nie Xuesong: "Leave quickly tomorrow. Otherwise I will report to the street."
"Hey, hey...I'm leaving tomorrow."
The few people walked away from the old factory building and saw the orange street lights nearby, and finally they felt a little calmer.
Aunt Wang, Aunt Zhang and Aunt Lei slowly stroked their chests.
Aunt Zhang let out a long sigh: "I was really scared just now. My heart is still pounding."
Bai Xingzi glanced at Lv Jinjin and started chattering non-stop, "Xiao Lv, you must stop getting so startled. Look, that scream you just made scared us all. Luckily, there's no one nearby, otherwise you'd wake everyone up and make them think we were catching a thief. That wouldn't have allowed us to rest well, and what if that affected our work the next day? Don't you agree?"
Lu Jinjin smiled and said, "Okay, Sister Bai, I understand."
Chen Dali: "Sister Bai, you were shouting quite loudly just now." He was shocked by the fact that Sister Bai's voice was quite loud when she asked who it was.
Bai Xingzi: @#¥$%what a fool%¥
At this time, Liu Xiaoyue noticed that Bi Chunliu was a little dazed and shook her arm, "Chunliu, what are you thinking about?"
Bi Chunliu was thinking about the moment they left. She'd glanced back and noticed the crazy man was still standing there, watching them go. He was too far away, and it was dark, so she couldn't make out his expression. She didn't know if it was her imagination, but it felt like his demeanor had suddenly changed. He wasn't as cowardly as he'd acted...
"Sister Xiaoyue, I was wondering what time it is now." Bi Chunliu made an excuse.
Liu Xiaoyue raised her voice and asked Tong Yucheng from the Third Hospital, Aunt Lei's nephew-in-law, "Brother Tong, what time is it now?"
Tong Yucheng took advantage of the light to check his watch. "It's half past four."
"Oh, so soon, let's go home and rest for a while?" Aunt Zhang suggested after hearing what Tong Yucheng said.
Obviously, this was a good idea that everyone agreed to, and they all agreed. Bi Chunliu also thought that it would be a good opportunity to switch shifts with Wei Guo so that she could get some sleep.
.
On Friday afternoon, Bi Chunliu saw Bi Weiguo waiting at the door as soon as he left the factory.
It seems that Weiguo is really determined to learn cooking.
Bi Chunliu went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a few bottles of soda, and then took Bi Weiguo, who was so excited that he skipped classes, to the public security bureau.
In the Public Security Bureau, Xing Fei was consulting with several married colleagues, including Hao Ren, mainly about how to increase their happiness after marriage.
Faced with the unmarried young man Xiao Xing, several married colleagues straightened their backs and began to speak freely.
The colleague took a puff of the cigarette handed to him by Xing Fei and said, "As a man, you must be active and not be too lazy, otherwise your wife will easily get angry."
Colleague 2 shared a personal experience of an unknown friend of his: He couldn't be perfunctory when talking to his wife, otherwise he would be scolded. If there were any minor issues between his wife and his mother, he had to smooth things over. For a man, the most important thing is to have good eloquence. Only when his wife and mother are happy can he live a good life!
Colleague three sneered and scolded the two colleagues for being useless, saying that once married, the husband must establish the authority over the wife, just like him, who would not go west if his wife was told to go east, and would get whatever he asked her to do.
Xing Fei took everything the two others had said to heart and decided to pay more attention to it in the future so that it could be implemented. He wasn't afraid of work; he was the one who managed his family now. He had lost both his biological mother and his adoptive mother, so there was no mother-in-law/daughter-in-law issue. As for the husband's authority, forget it; it wasn't necessary.
Hao Ren hadn't spoken since the three colleagues started talking. After listening to what the three people shared, Hao Ren twitched the corner of his mouth, raised one eyebrow and glanced at the three people. How could he still try to save face like this?
Tsk! It's good to have a keen eye. After all, if you don't, you might get hit by his wife. I heard that his wife once won a martial arts championship. She's really an iron lady.
Hao Ren glanced at the guy who said he had good eloquence. He really had to have good eloquence. It seemed like his wife was a childhood marriage arranged by his mother. They got along like real mother and daughter, and even if they had a few quarrels, it wouldn't hurt their feelings. However, he had suffered a lot of double hurt.
As for the husband's power? Ha! Hao Ren remembered what his wife had said to him. Look at Lao Lu. He wouldn't let his wife do anything at home, saying she had to protect her hands. After all, a few articles written by Lao Lu's wife could be worth Lao Lu's monthly salary.
"Hey? Xing Fei, is that Comrade Bi?" Hao Ren reminded Xing Fei.
"Comrade Bi? You're Xing Fei's girlfriend, right? Let me see!"
"Where?"
Xing Fei pushed a few people and signaled them to get out quickly. After hearing a few words of praise for valuing women over friendship, he walked over with a smile.
"Chunliu, you're here? Weiguo is here with your sister too?"
Bi Chunliu: "Yes, are you busy now? If not, we have something to talk to you about."
Bi Weiguo happily added, "Brother Fei, it's my business."
"Okay."
Bi Chunliu handed the bottles of soda to Xing Fei, asking him to share them with his colleagues. Xing Fei said reluctantly, "Let's drink them. I'll buy them some next time."
Bi Chunliu patted Xing Fei gently, and Xing Fei took the soda, opened the half-open door, and said, "You two can split it up. This is something my boyfriend brought to you."
Several people inside poked their heads out and shouted "Thank you, sister-in-law" in high and low voices. Coupled with Xing Fei's smiling eyes, Bi Chunliu blushed.
It wasn't until they returned to Xing Fei's office that the blush on Bi Chunliu's face subsided. After calming down, Bi Chunliu told Xing Fei about Weiguo's desire to learn cooking. Xing Fei, like Bi Chunliu, asked Bi Weiguo what he thought. Knowing that he really wanted to learn, Xing Fei agreed without a second thought, "Okay, since Weiguo wants to learn, I'll go ask Uncle Cai. Uncle Cai is a nice guy and really capable. If Weiguo learns from him, he'll definitely have no worries about finding a job in the future!"
"Okay! Thank you, Brother Fei! Big sister, Brother Fei, don't worry, I will definitely study hard!" Bi Weiguo was originally afraid that Big Brother Xing Fei would dislike him for thinking too much before graduation, but now he is finally relieved.
"Well, I believe you." Xing Fei patted Bi Weiguo's head.
On the way home, Bi Weiguo was in an extremely good mood. He munched on a flower cake with one hand, and even though there was something hanging on his other hand, his arm was swinging lightly, showing his good mood.
"Big sister, when I learn how to cook, I'll take care of all our meals and make delicious food for you every day! When I save up enough money, we can eat meat every other day!"
Like Bi Weiguo, Bi Chunliu was chewing a flower cake in one hand, and in the other hand was holding a bag of flower cakes given by Xing Fei. "Okay! Big sister believes in you!"
If Weiguo really learns cooking skills well, when the economy develops, maybe his Weiguo will become a world-famous chef on the Internet!
"Sister, should we give them a return gift?" Bi Weiguo raised the dried seafood in his hand.
"Back! Wait for me to make some chili sauce. It's hard to send other things."
The flower cakes were a gift from a fellow soldier from Yunnan Province, and the dried seafood was from Wei Dongzheng and Wang Xiaoman. Wang Xiaoman must have adapted to island life, because Wei Dongzheng said his wife had bought the dried seafood from the neighbor's sister-in-law. He even boasted that his wife had told him to give them dried seafood herself next time. Xing Fei was disgusted by his boastful tone.
It’s like no one has a wife!
"Okay, then I'll learn how to make chili sauce from you!" Bi Weiguo now wanted to learn how to make anything he saw. When his eldest sister mentioned chili sauce, he remembered what his grandmother had said about how only his eldest sister's chili sauce was half-decent. He had to learn how to make chili sauce; he could use it as a topping in the future!
.
Early in the morning on the weekend.
Everyone who entered the courtyard three times was woken up by the Nie family...
Bi Qiuguo was so angry that he pounded the bed. "I finally don't have to go to school, but I can't even sleep in!" He shouted to Bi Weiguo who was sleeping in the outer room, "Second brother, what time is it now?"
Bi Weiguo: "Four thirty..."
Bi Chunliu couldn't sleep either. She sat up and drew aside the curtains, only to find Aunt Bai busy pasting red calligraphy on a room to the west. No wonder she'd felt something was amiss yesterday. It turned out her son was getting married, and the Nie family wasn't feeling happy... The wedding was happening today, and they were putting up red calligraphy today?
Bi Qiuguo also moved closer to the window and spotted Nie Xiangbei in the corner. "Sister, look at Nie Xiangbei. Why does he have that expression? If you put some ink on his face, he'd be able to write."
Bi Xiahe laughed out loud and also got up to look.
Needless to say, Nie Xiangbei's expression was indeed not good. Not only was his face dark, but his face was also stiff, his eyebrows were furrowed, and from time to time he would roll his eyes at Nie Xiangdong who was just laughing foolishly. If you didn't know better, you would think he didn't agree with this marriage...
Bi Chunliu thought, once Liu Qingqing got married, Lou Cuicui would probably be married soon, and Nie Xiangnan would be married again, leaving only Nie Xiangbei unmarried. But the Nie family only had three houses in total, so the Nie family would soon be in turmoil...
But this time, the Nie family can’t even think about getting close to her family!
