Tian Wenjun's business was neither too good nor too bad. Sometimes, when she was lucky, she could earn about 60 yuan a day, and sometimes only a few yuan.
In the blink of an eye, it was March.
As the weather gets warmer, she rides a bicycle to and from get off work every day.
There is an abandoned garbage station on the edge of the county town. When I passed by it before, there was no bad smell here, but when I passed by it in recent days, there was a smell of rotten meat and burnt garbage on the roadside every few days, which was very disgusting.
Tian Wenjun frowned every time she passed by.
As the weather got warmer, Tian Wenjun and Feng Xiujuan went to the wheat fields to dig shepherd's purse in their free time.
She cooked for her three children in different ways.
Every three days, it’s either shepherd’s purse buns or shepherd’s purse dumplings.
During this period, the wild vegetables on the hillside were all sprouting, and when there was no market, she and Feng Xiujuan went to pick wild vegetables, intending to dry them and store some for winter.
In the blink of an eye, it is early April.
There have been rumors in the county recently that several outsiders have gone missing after coming here.
When Tian Wenjun was setting up a stall that day, she saw Zhao Qiang and two other people sneaking into the alley.
For a moment, Tian Wenjun couldn't help thinking that Zhao Qiang and Liu Fei were from other places.
In the past two or three months, at least sixteen people have disappeared in the county. For the first time, she felt that Zhao Qiang might be a human trafficker.
Or, they are under the guise of contracting a restaurant, but are actually doing something shady behind the scenes.
Tian Wenjun thought of Zhao Yong, but felt that it was unlikely.
At noon, Tian Wenjun went into a restaurant and ordered a bowl of red oil wontons.
Wang Daqing was now the chef in the kitchen. He cooked a huge bowl of wontons for Tian Wenjun.
There are two other cooks in the kitchen, but Wang Daqing thinks their cooking skills are average.
Zhang Guilan sat opposite Tian Wenjun, and Tian Wenjun whispered, "Sister Zhang, what do you think of the business in the restaurant?"
Zhang Guilan sighed and said, "It's exactly the same as going to 㹓, 㫇㹓 will probably have to pay.
This restaurant is not good. The key is that Boss Zhao seems like an amateur. He doesn't seem to be paying attention to the restaurant and is nowhere to be seen all day. "
After Zhang Guilan said this, Tian Wenjun became even more suspicious.
She felt upset after eating a bowl of wontons.
Zhang Guilan asked: "Wenjun, do you have any suggestions or ideas?"
"No, I heard about the restaurant being contracted out when I went there, and I was thinking about contracting it out, but now that I hear what you said, I don't feel so bad anymore."
After a brief shock, Zhang Guilan said, "You haven't contracted it yet."
In fact, what she thought in her heart was that Tian Wenjun was indeed an extraordinary girl.
Not to mention other restaurant expenses, just the several thousand dollars in contract fees is something that ordinary people cannot easily afford.
However, Tian Wenjun felt that there was nothing to regret.
At least she could set up a stall and go to two markets to earn a month's wages.
Very good.
After taking a few bites of the wontons, she suddenly felt nauseous and couldn't eat anymore.
Zhang Guilan watched her fiddle with the wontons and asked, "What's wrong? Don't the wontons taste right?"
“No, I ate too much this morning.
I'll eat slowly."
She tried to eat a few bites, but still couldn't finish it. Finally, she was afraid of vomiting, so she stopped eating.
After closing the stall, she went out on the road. When she passed by the abandoned scrap factory, she saw a woman talking to a man at the door, and they both looked at Tian Wenjun at the same time.
There was that burning smell in the air again, and there seemed to be a faint stench of something rotting.
Halfway through riding the bicycle, she really couldn't stand the smell and felt nauseous for a moment.
She got off her bike, squatted on the side of the road and vomited for a long time, almost vomiting out bile.
Two villagers hurriedly passed by behind him and also covered their noses because of the stench.
The two men asked, "What's burning that stinks?"
“It smells like pig hair, it’s really stinky.
The last time I passed by from behind, I heard they had a few pigs in the yard.”
Tian Wenjun didn't think much about what she heard. She vomited for a long time and then rode her bike back home.
It was not easy to hold on, and I only felt better after drinking a few sips of water.
When Tian Wenjun was almost done cooking, Chen Jianguo arrived.
He said, "I have something to go out for tonight."
"What's up?"
Chen Jianguo said: "It's just a small matter."
Tian Wenjun pursed her lips: "If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. Will you come over tonight?"
"Come on, I promise to come on time, and I'll warm your bed when you come."
"roll."
Chen Jianguo pinched her butt with a smile, and Tian Wenjun was so angry that she kicked him.
Chen Jianguo said: "You don't look well at all, are you feeling unwell?"
“No, I was on my way to the county town and passed by an abandoned scrapyard at the intersection. I don’t know what people were burning inside, but I vomited because of the smoke.
The smell is even worse than the smell of the hair on a pig's head being roasted in the middle of winter, and it seems to have a stench mixed with it."
As Tian Wenjun was talking, she felt so sick that she wanted to vomit when she thought of the taste.
She looked painful and waved her hands, "No, I feel sick just thinking about that smell. I want to...vomit..."
As Tian Wenjun was speaking, she ran to the bathroom and started retching.
It’s over. I didn’t eat lunch, and I’m afraid I won’t be able to eat dinner again.
Chen Jianguo looked worried. Tian Wenjun suddenly thought of how He Damei and Jiang Cuihua both vomited when they were pregnant.
Is it possible that…
Will it be...
Is she pregnant?
After she had retched, she washed her face in the bathroom and when she came out her face was sallow.
Chen Jianguo looked worried.
There was a knock on the door. He strode to open it and saw Jiang Wan standing at the door with two cloth bags and a smile on his face.
"Brother Chen, I'm here to see Xiao Xueqin and Xiao Xueyan."
Chen Jianguo said: "You are off work, come in."
Jiang Wan came in with a smile, and Tian Wenjun said, "Let's sit down and eat together."
Jiang Wan said, "I won't eat it anymore. The smell coming from the scrap factory has made me unable to eat these days."
Tian Wenjun thought she was an exception, but she turned out not to be.
Tian Wenjun said: "Me too, I just vomited in the bathroom."
Jiang Wan said: "Sister, have some beef jerky and biscuits. I just received a package the other day. The more you chew, the more delicious they are."
Jiang Wan placed a large bag of snacks on the table, and another bag contained some dried fish and shrimp.
Tian Wenjun ate a fruit peel, the sour and sweet taste soothed her queasy stomach, and finally she ate a piece of beef jerky before she finished.
Chen Jianguo thought about what the two had said and fell into deep thought.
It looks like I have to go to the abandoned site tonight.
Jiang Wan kept mumbling to Tian Wenjun, telling her many speechless things about the hospital. She also started complaining after work, because it turned out that curing illnesses and saving lives were two different concepts from working in a hospital.
She thought she could save lives as a doctor, but many things seemed to go against her wishes.
As night fell, the three children finished their homework, and Jiang Wan had no intention of leaving.
Chen Jianguo drove away with a few people who were in a state of paralysis.
In the county town, the people who were going to pick them up had already made preparations.
