Wang Shuning didn't plan to go back today, so he just had to arrive at the cemetery half an hour earlier in the evening.
Chaoyang County is several times larger than Dafeng Village. At least here you can see quite a few three-story buildings. There are more than a dozen busy markets alone, and black markets of all sizes are distributed in various areas. I don't know how many people are struggling in them.
Fortunately, she had more time today, so she found a secluded corner, washed the black dust off her face, and took off the outermost gray coarse cloth clothes. Her fair and bright little face was exposed. Even though her clothes were simple, people could not help but look at her twice.
There are many ready-made clothing stores in the state-owned shopping malls. Considering that he works and lives in the village, Wang Shuning did not buy those bright red and bright yellow clothes. Instead, he chose low-key white or light blue cotton coats and pants.
The salesperson standing by the shelf couldn't help but light up when he saw Wang Shuning coming out of the cubicle wearing new clothes. Such a simple style looked so good on her. He decided to buy a set for himself to try when he was about to get off work.
Compared to Yihe Town which only has one soap factory, Chaoyang County has many factories, such as a winery, paper mill, wood factory, and a new automobile manufacturing plant that opened at the beginning of the year.
Four-wheeled cars were manufactured ten years ago, but they were only found in big cities like Beijing and Shanghai. Wang Shuning has been to Chaoyang County twice and has never seen any cars on the streets. Car manufacturers should have them, but ordinary people cannot afford them.
A woman wearing a blue long skirt inside and a red cotton-padded jacket outside and black low-heeled leather shoes on her feet came running towards them. She looked back as she ran. Wang Shuning dodged to the side twice to avoid being hit by her. Fortunately, there were not many people on the road, otherwise he would have hit her.
But in this cold winter, why don’t you button up your cotton-padded jacket? Won’t the cold wind blow in? I didn’t expect that this kind of behavior has already emerged in this era, where people value style over temperature.
"Stop right there."
Suddenly, a tall and strong man rushed out from the corner, grabbed Wang Shuning's arm, pressed his knee against her cervical vertebrae, and pressed Wang Shuning to the ground.
His bones were hurting, and Wang Shuning screamed, "Help! This is robbery and hooliganism."
Where did this madman come from in public? Why does his method look like that of a police officer catching a criminal?
Qi Jianping didn't expect that this woman would dare to turn the tables and accuse him of being a hooligan. A woman like her would be considered dirty even if he touched her.
"What nonsense are you talking about? You did something shameful, and yet you still dare to frame me. If you don't hand over the stolen money today, I will take you to the police station and put you in jail."
Wang Shuning wanted to turn his head to look at the person who caught him, but the person was too strong and he couldn't turn his head at all. "You recognized the wrong person, right? Who stole your money? Who did something shameful?"
"You're still trying to quibble? Don't think you can fool me by taking off your coat. I have eyes sharper than a monkey." Qi Jianping decisively reached into Wang Shuning's pocket and took out a purse.
"Now that we've caught you red-handed, I wonder how you can argue." He waved a stack of bills in front of Wang Shuning.
"How did you get caught red-handed with my own money? I think you are blind. You even mistook the person and let me go, but you still dare to pick my pocket, you shameless bastard. I think you are using the excuse of mistaking the person to rob me." Wang Shuning felt a little disgusted. Even though he was wearing several pieces of clothes with several layers of separation in between, he still felt uncomfortable.
Because the noise was quite loud, several passers-by gathered around.
Qi Jianping shouted towards a place not far away, "Ge Nie, the woman who cheated on you and stole your money has been caught. Come here quickly and send her to the police station."
After chasing for three blocks, Ge Nie was already out of breath. How come Qi Jianping was just like nothing happened and left him so far behind?
"Where's the money?" What Ge Nie cared about most was the savings he had saved for many years. It was okay to be cheated of his feelings, feelings were worthless, but he could always get some by squeezing. The most important thing was the savings.
Qi Jianping stuffed Wang Shuning's purse into his hand and said, "Look, is the amount correct? If it's less, she must have hidden it somewhere else."
Genie counted the bills quickly, frowned in confusion, "That's not right, how come there's an extra fifty dollars?"
Qi Jianping raised his eyebrows: "Ah, fifty more?"
Wang Shuning was pinned to the ground and unable to move. His tone was full of murderous intent. "Of course it's more, because that's my money, not yours at all."
Ge Nie thought the voice was unfamiliar. He walked to Wang Shuning, bent down and looked at him. He looked up at Qi Jianping in confusion and asked, "Who is this person?"
Qi Jianping's hand froze, "Isn't she the woman who cheated on you?"
Genie's eyes widened and he shook his head, "It's not her. I don't know this person."
Qi Jianping loosened his grip and Wang Shuning fell to the ground, with the hair on his forehead covered in dirt.
She supported herself on the ground with her hands. Her arms, which had been pinned down by her backhand, could not be twisted. After moving her arms, she stood up and turned to look at Qi Jianping. He was too tall. She could only see his chin when she raised her head. His height was definitely over 1.80 meters.
Holding his breath, he said coldly with a gloomy face: "Give me back my money."
Qi Jianping quickly snatched the money bag from Ge Nie's hand, stuffed the banknotes into it, and held it in front of Wang Shuning with both hands, "I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person, I'll return the money to you."
Wang Shuning's front teeth rubbed back and forth. He reached out to take the purse and put it in his pocket. "You have strong limbs but a simple mind. Look carefully, am I the woman you are looking for?"
Qi Jianping felt guilty and whispered, "You are wearing exactly the same clothes as her."
Wang Shuning grabbed her collar and loudly explained: "I bought new clothes today, and these are pants, not a skirt."
The two men stood in front of him with their heads down. Wang Shuning took a deep breath and didn't want to get entangled with them anymore. "Just now, a woman in a red cotton jacket ran in that direction. I think she is the person you are looking for."
Ge Nie nodded and thanked him quickly, "Thank you very much. I have something to do today. Next time, we two brothers will definitely take the blame."
As he said that, he pushed Qi Jianping and ran in the direction Wang Shuning pointed.
Wang Shuning looked at the mud on his knees, bent down helplessly and patted it off with his hands. Then he looked at the new clothes and felt a little depressed for some reason.
After wasting a long time, Qi Jianping and Ge Nie failed to catch up with the woman, who had already run away.
"Now you've lost all your money and your life. I've warned you long ago not to mess with women whose backgrounds you don't know. Now look what you've done. All your belongings have been cleared out." Qi Jianping looked at Ge Nie with eyes full of anger at his lack of fighting spirit.
