Chapter 18 Good Luck



Some people say that when a person is extremely unlucky, good luck will begin to happen.

Meng Sheng felt that it was absolutely right.

Since my rebirth, everything I planned seems to be going smoothly.

The next morning, Meng Yun went to the hospital to visit his father again. When he came back and packed up to go back to the village with everyone, he was stopped by two police officers who had come to the door.

He was then taken away for investigation on suspicion of hooliganism.

Old man Meng and his wife looked at their eldest grandson who was being dragged away in shock and grief, and they burst into tears again and cried bitterly.

Fortunately, they all came from difficult times, had seen and experienced many things, and their hearts were very strong. They recovered after crying for a while.

Meng Anrong wiped his tears and snot, choked up and said to Meng Chenglin, "Chenglin, we can't leave for a while.

We won’t be attending your eldest son’s engagement party.

You and Sheng Wazi go back to the village first. Your aunt and I will stay here for two days and see what happens."

Meng Chenglin rubbed his face. He really didn't expect that Meng Jiefang had just revealed the matter of having an illegitimate child, and Meng Yun was now involved in hooliganism.

The family that used to be so prosperous and envied by everyone is now about to be reunited in prison.

Needless to say, those who were arrested deserved it because they had wasted their lives.

It's just a pity for my uncle and his wife. They are both in their seventies and most of their bodies are buried in the earth. At the end of their lives, bad things happen one after another.

He had to go back for his son's engagement, but seeing the two old men crying with red eyes, he felt a little worried. After thinking for a while, he turned to Meng Sheng and said, "I will go back to the village to help your eldest brother with his business. You stay here to take care of Grandpa and the others, and help run errands if there is anything!"

If I don’t see you guys leave after I finish my work, I’ll come to the city again.”

After saying that, he found an excuse to drag the person to the room where he slept last night and whispered to him, "Be more careful, don't do things you shouldn't do, and don't do whatever the old man says.

Use your brain and don't get involved in their mess.

Just look after the elderly and children in the county.

And don't get into trouble outside!" He was frightened by the affairs of several cousins ​​and nephews, and now he just hopes that his son will be safe and sound.

Seeing his enemy being arrested, Meng Sheng's heart, which was weighed down by hatred, felt relieved. He met his father's worried eyes and replied, "I know, you can go back without worry.

I am an adult now, I know what I can do and what I can’t do!”

Meng Chenglin stuffed some more money into his son's pocket, then went out to say goodbye to the two old people, and quickly rode away on his bicycle.

Meng Sheng held the small stack of money that he had managed to give away, his eyes full of helplessness, but the corners of his mouth curled up.

After sending Meng Chenglin away, Meng Anrong didn't say anything to Meng Sheng, but said directly: "Sheng, please help me go to the hospital to see Meng Yu. This kid and his brother have always been inseparable.

Go ask him if he knows what his brother did wrong."

After giving the order, he cursed: "What a disgrace! I won't even be able to face my ancestors in the underworld after I die!"

Meng Yun was arrested, so it’s obvious that Meng Yu is in trouble now.

As the mastermind behind the scenes, Meng Sheng went to the hospital without saying anything. He was just thinking along the way that he would go find Feng Yi's house after returning to the village and ask her if she had seen any other ghosts in the village cemetery.

If our ancestors were still alive, I wonder if they would be so angry that they would jump up and down when they saw their descendants like this?

The county town is not big and it only takes more than ten minutes to get there.

It was not at all unexpected.

In the hospital, Meng Yu was also taken away for investigation.

There were only two men in uniform guarding outside Meng Chengliang's ward.

Meng Sheng looked through the window at the person lying on the hospital bed in the room. After asking two police officers about what happened, he left the hospital without staying long.

He did not return to the courtyard, but just strolled around the county town.

It would be better for him to go back and tell the two elders slowly. He was afraid that if it happened one after another, it would really be a big blow to them.

Besides, since he was acting alone, he had to find a safe place to store the box hidden in the mountains.

If it is left in the mountains for too long, not to mention that it might be discovered and intercepted along the way, he would also be worried about snakes, insects, rats, ants, rain and so on.

Mengsheng was not very familiar with the county town in the 1980s, but he just had to walk along the more remote areas outside the county town.

He wanted to find a house with a yard similar to Yu Yong's, with few neighbors around, so that he could do things conveniently and secretly and not easily be noticed.

It would be best if the house is old and shabby, but can barely provide shelter from the wind and rain.

Now the police are keeping an eye on the Meng family, and they cannot allow anyone to suspect that they have large amounts of property of unknown origin.

Meng Sheng went around asking with a try-it attitude, not thinking that he could find a suitable house in a day or two.

But perhaps his luck really had turned, and he believed that those who survived a disaster would have good fortune in the future. He found a suitable yard before noon.

To be precise, the yard is no longer inside the county town. It is built outside a completely collapsed section of the ancient city wall. In front of the yard is a small loess road that has been trampled hard by people taking a shortcut into the city, and behind it are rolling hills and forests.

On the right side of the city wall is an open space covered with weeds, and on the left side you can see gradually denser houses. This is the village where I rented an ox cart last time. It seems to be called Zhongyi Village, named after the loyalty archway in the village.

The yard is not big, with only three main rooms and a front and back yard surrounded by a person-high wall. You can dry some things in the front yard and plant a few rows of vegetables in the back yard.

The house was in a very dilapidated state. The yard was covered with thatched roofs as tall as a person. Several large doors were hanging crookedly, and several holes of varying sizes could be seen on the roof.
