"Tomorrow? I'm afraid not tomorrow."
Two days ago, Tian Yuzhu felt safe to go to Awu Village as long as Shi Zhentang's condition was stable.
But now the situation is completely different.
She felt that Shi Zhentang had begun to suspect her. If she ran away again, was she ready to tell him everything?
In short, I feel very confused.
The one-eyed dragon was a little flustered. "I have to go. I've already spread the word that Mr. Gong will be visiting Laowu Village. The rough stones and antiques you signed a while ago have all been very popular. Mr. Gong's reputation has spread throughout the circle. And I heard that tomorrow the owners of the two mines in the north and south will have a big fight. They're betting on putting their rough stones on the market to see whose rough stones will be recognized by the discerning eye."
This...Tian Yuzhu was a little tempted.
If she gets lucky, she will have some funds next.
After pondering for a moment, he finally made up his mind: "Okay, tell me a place and I'll meet you tomorrow."
The one-eyed man finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Let's go to the bus station and take the earliest bus back. We have to go up and down the mountain halfway back to Shuochi Town, and then go directly through the mountain."
It was settled then, and Tian Yuzhu didn't dare to delay any longer.
She hurriedly sent the laundry and Xiao Hei back to the rental house, went to the grocery store to buy afternoon food, and then went to the department store.
After buying all these things, I went to the well to fetch water to wash clothes. There were some women from the street by the well, and we chatted while washing and even managed to talk a few words to each other.
In the past, Tian Yuzhu didn't like chatting with people whenever she met them.
Now I have unknowingly become a member of the intelligence team.
After washing up, I got home around five o'clock and started to light the fire and cook.
During the whole process, Xiao Hei was there, following the cat in and out happily. It was hard to imagine that it was actually a little wild wolf.
When Tian Yuzhu had some free time, she looked at it and felt guilty: "It hasn't howled in several days. It must be uncomfortable, right?"
She rubbed the little wolf's head, and the little guy rubbed against her trouser leg, as if he was acting coquettishly.
For some reason, just from this small interaction, some images suddenly flashed through Tian Yuzhu's mind... a tall black wolf, and a handsome and proud little boy standing beside the black wolf...
Uh, what's going on?
I quickly shook my head to clear my mind. What happened to her?
Daydreaming in broad daylight?
Tian Yuzhu curled her lips helplessly, then cheered up: "Xiao Hei, go play over there. I'll cook something delicious for you."
When Xiao Hei heard there was something delicious, his eyes lit up, and he ran over and grabbed a stick to play with.
…
On the ancient bridge side, Shi Weimin and Shi Weiqiang unloaded the entire truck of cement in less than an hour.
The truck driver gave them a thumbs up and said, "Great, you two guys! You saved me a lot of time. Okay, thank you. I'm leaving now!"
As if there was something urgent for him to do, he got in the car, started the truck, and drove away at full speed.
"Big trucks are great. They can pull a lot and run fast. They're much better than the ox carts in our village."
Shi Weimin put his hands over his brows to block out the sun and sighed.
Shi Weiqiang also agreed, and at the same time he was envious: "Exactly, look at that truck driver, he's really amazing."
"Okay, let's go back!"
The two walked back while chatting, and after a few steps they met Li Shengli, who came to pick them up in a jeep.
The two brothers quickly brushed off the dust on their bodies, and it took them a long time before they dared to sit on it.
Then Shi Weiqiang boasted: "Brother, even if you didn't come to pick us up, I could still find the county hospital."
Li Shengli joked, "That's your memory?"
"It's true. I've observed it. There's a red cross on the wall of the county hospital building. I can find it by looking for it."
"...That's the Red Cross." Li Shengli was amused.
Shi Weimin didn't say anything. When he was at his hometown, he felt that he was better than the third brother.
Although he may be a little weaker than the third brother, farm work also requires the use of brains. His brain is better than the third brother's, and he can think of more ways to farm than the third brother.
But now that he was out and about, he felt a little ashamed of himself.
He felt from the bottom of his heart that the third brother was indeed better than him.
But as soon as the three of them returned to the county hospital, Shi Weiqiang was pleasantly surprised to find out: "Brother, look at that big truck on the opposite side of the road. Isn't that the one that was hauling cement just now?"
Shi Weimin squinted his eyes and said, "How do you know it's one?"
"That car has a number on the back, right? I don't know the other characters, but I know the numbers one, two, and three. Look at that number 181, it's the same number."
"Old Three is right. A car can only have one license plate number, and it will never be the same as another car's. Old Three, you're really good. I didn't expect you to be so observant."
Li Shengli's praise made Shi Weiqiang shy. He chuckled and scratched his head: "Brother, to be honest, I was forced to do this. I didn't like looking at this and that before, but it's different now. If I don't smarten up, my second sister-in-law will... ahem, teach me a lesson."
“…”
I see.
But Li Shengli almost laughed out loud, it seemed that Lao Shi did not lie to him.
It is obvious that Shi Weiqiang is so afraid of Tian Yuzhu. It must be more than just a lesson. He is just scared by being beaten.
It's unbelievable that a weak woman could defeat such a big man.
The three of them chatted as they went upstairs to the ward.
As a result, he was recognized at the stairs on the same floor as the ward.
"Two brothers."
Shi Weimin and Shi Weiqiang were stunned: "..."
No one in this county town knew them, so when they saw them, they were surprised and delighted: "Master, is it you?"
It turned out to be the truck driver.
How did he get to the hospital?
After a few pleasantries, the two sides found out that the truck driver was rushing to see his wife and child. His wife was giving birth today, so he was in a hurry to unload the cement quickly.
As for Shi Zhentang's injury, Shi Weimin and Shi Weiqiang were more sensible and kept it a secret, saying that he had come to the hospital to visit a relative.
The truck driver didn't ask any further questions, but instead thought of something: "Brothers, are you free tomorrow? If you are, please help unload another truck. Don't worry, you'll get paid as usual."
Anyway, the factory pays the wages for the workers to unload the trucks, so he doesn't have to worry about it.
"Yes, yes, yes. Don't worry, we'll wait for you at the bridge at the same time tomorrow."
Hearing that there was still money to be made, Shi Weiqiang was so excited that he almost jumped up.
Six bucks a day, two days is...
Well, never mind him, as long as you are happy.
Shi Weimin also rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "Don't worry, brother, we will definitely go."
"Okay, then I'll leave it to you without any worries. You don't have to look for anyone else."
Both of them spoke so loudly that Shi Zhentang in the ward could hear them.
He was in good condition today and sat up to read a book that Li Shengli had borrowed from the Workers' Cultural Palace. It was an introduction to contemporary military equipment.
