Shi Weimin, who was standing nearby and listening, was confused but also surprised that a flower was worth so much money.
For him, it was like hearing a mythical story about turning stone into gold.
"Third brother, what kind of flower is so valuable? Let's go home and pick some."
He couldn't wait to find out.
Shi Weiqiang calmed down and said, "I don't know what kind of flower that is. It was my second sister-in-law who went there..."
"Brother, that's called snow lotus, a precious medicinal herb. However, it only grows in winter, and the place where it grows is very dangerous, so ordinary people can't pick it. I was lucky to encounter it that day, and this kind of flower can only be found with fate, so don't waste your time on it. Wait until next winter, and I will take you up the mountain again."
Tian Yuzhu spoke reasonably and the most important thing was to remind them that it was very dangerous.
Shi Weiqiang knew this, and he nodded hurriedly: "Second sister-in-law is right, it is indeed impossible for ordinary people to pick it."
Tian Yuzhu stuffed the money into his hands and said, "Third brother, don't waste so much money. You have to use it in useful places. If it's useless, save it as capital for your wife."
"Oh, I'll listen to my second sister-in-law." Shi Weiqiang was very happy.
Shi Weimin was very envious: "Then sister-in-law, you must come back during the winter New Year."
"must."
"Wait for me for a while." Shi Weiqiang said suddenly.
After saying that, he turned and walked towards a women's headwear counter.
Shi Weiqiang and Tian Yuzhu were stunned to see that he had bought a red velvet flower clip.
Hey, is there something going on?
Tian Yuzhu asked curiously, "Brother, does the third brother have a girl he likes back home?"
Shi Weimin was also confused. "That's out of the question. What kind of girl would be interested in someone with such a stubborn temper? There's no way there's anyone like that within a ten-mile radius of our village."
Tian Yuzhu: “…”
Yes, that’s the character of the third brother.
But I watched helplessly as I watched other people put the little accessories they bought into their pockets like treasures, and even patted them, as if I was afraid they would fall.
Tian Yuzhu was left with no choice but to coax him out with a dollar: "If you tell me who you bought this velvet flower for, I'll give you a dollar."
I originally thought it would be difficult to ask, but Shi Wei stiffened his neck and said, "There's nothing to hide. I want to give it to Sister Tian Ying."
"What?"
Which Tian Ying? Could it be his biological sister Tian Ying?
Shi Weiqiang's next words almost made Tian Yuzhu fall head over heels: "Every time I go to see Sister Tian Ying, she always looks sad. I want to give her a small clip to cheer her up."
Tian Yuzhu: “…”
You better not have any other ideas!!!
She was feeling a bit dizzy now.
Even Shi Weimin felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it in front of Tian Yuzhu.
The atmosphere then became a little tense. Only Shi Weiqiang had no idea what was happening and was still very happy.
After walking out of the department store and waiting for the two brothers to walk on the street by themselves, Shi Weimin watched Tian Yuzhu walk away.
He quickly dragged Shi Weiqiang to the corner of the street and said, "Old Third, you are such a fool! How could you give a hair flower to your sister-in-law? Do you know what this means?"
"What do you mean?"
"If a man gives a woman a flower, doesn't that mean you like her?"
"Ah, tsk..." Shi Weiqiang raised his chin. "This is a new era, and you're still trying to fool me with those old ideas. The movies all say that everyone is free and equal, including making friends. You can be friends with whoever you want. Do you understand, brother? I treat Sister Tian Ying as a friend, not a boyfriend or girlfriend. There is a difference."
"The difference between you..."
Shi Weimin, who is usually a man of few words, was so anxious that he almost cursed.
This idiot has been corrupted by movies.
Shi Weimin said anxiously, "Think about it, what would Zhou Ergou think if he saw Tian Ying wearing the hair flower you gave her?"
"I don't care what he thinks."
"you……"
"Okay, okay, big brother, don't take it so seriously."
“…”
Early the next morning, the two lively boys of the Shi family were sent by Li Shengli to the provincial capital to take the train.
Tian Yuzhu didn't sleep well the whole night.
As soon as she closed her eyes, she saw the red velvet flower swaying in front of her eyes, like a nightmare, and she woke up soon after falling asleep.
Deep down in Tian Yuzhu's heart, she was not against anyone falling in love with anyone, but she was worried that the hair flower would cause a series of unnecessary troubles.
These troubles will harm Shi Weiqiang and his sister Tian Ying.
No, no, she shook her head and slapped her face, wondering if she was thinking too much!
Shi Zhentang saw the whole action: "..."
The man frowned slightly and observed her silently.
What's wrong with my wife? She keeps yawning and has dark circles under her eyes.
"Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Now his wound no longer hurts at night, so Tian Yuzhu can actually sleep all night without getting up.
Tian Yuzhu yawned: "It's okay, I'll go buy you breakfast."
After the two of them finished breakfast, Tian Yuzhu had to go buy food for lunch.
This time Shi Zhentang didn't agree. Seeing her tired face, he felt distressed: "Let's go to the People's Canteen for lunch, just the two of us. I also want to go out for a walk."
"But Doctor An just said yesterday..."
"Doctors always speak conservatively. I know my own body."
In fact, Tian Yuzhu had seen Shi Zhentang's wound, and she also felt that it was okay to go out for a walk.
But hospitals must be more cautious.
Besides, he was uncomfortable staying in the ward every day, so he nodded and agreed: "Then let's go out for lunch."
Since she had nothing to do in the morning, she lay down beside him and took a nap.
Shi Zhentang quietly read a book with her, and the whole space seemed to become beautiful and warm at this moment.
At this time, the head nurse pushed open the door and came in. Shi Zhentang made a gesture to tell her not to make a sound.
The head nurse quickly pointed outside and gestured, saying that there was a call for him.
Thinking that it might be a call from the Public Security Bureau in his hometown, Shi Zhentang put down his book, got out of bed, and tiptoed out.
In fact, he has been worried about Shi Xiaoli these two days.
Sure enough, when the call was connected, it was He Song on the other end. His voice was heavy, "After searching for a few days, I finally have a clue. Lu Juanjuan and Shi Xiaoli were once with some hooligans in the county town. I've questioned those hooligans separately, and their confessions are very consistent. They said that these two are targeting the provincial capital, and once they make enough money, they want to go to Beijing to try their luck."
"But we didn't find them at the county bus station, and there was no sign of them leaving the county..."
He Song pondered for a moment: "I now suspect that they took an illegal taxi when they left the county town. That would make the situation more complicated!"
Black taxis are cars that are not allowed to carry passengers. In order to make a little money, the drivers pick up passengers privately. Sometimes they even use the company's buses for personal purposes.
If that's the case, then the scope will be difficult to check at all.
Shi Zhentang's heart ached. "Old He, can you contact the police in the provincial capital and ask them to help look for him?"
"Don't worry about this. We can also conduct a joint investigation with the provincial capital. I have already reported it."
"Okay, thank you then!"
"You're welcome."
