Chapter 4 Friendship Cream
"Your father came the other day and said that you were bullied?" Eighth Grandpa walked up to her and looked at her carefully.
"Did you listen to my father's nonsense? Am I fine?" Cui Xue smiled and took his hand, leading him to the lounge next to the gate of the scrap station.
"It's good that you haven't been bullied. If someone really bullies you, don't hide it. We have many members of the Cui family. Whoever dares to bully us will be beaten back by me."
Listening to the old man's somewhat excited words, Cui Xue was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.
"Eighth Grandpa, I want to go in and take a look." When they arrived in the lounge, Cui Xue looked up at the scrap station and said.
The old man took a look at the things in her hand and said with a smile: "Go ahead, Eighth Master will watch over them for you, and someone will call you."
He pointed to the rooms inside and told her what was in each room.
"If I like something, can I buy it?" Cui Xue listened and whispered in the old man's ear.
"Don't take everything, girl. There are too many things in there. If one or two are missing, no one will know." The old man looked at her meaningfully and smiled.
"I know that Eighth Master loves me the most." Cui Xue smiled and said a lot of nice things to make the old man smile.
There are three rooms in the waste station. Cui Xue looked at them one by one. The things in them were roughly classified, but they were thrown into the rooms and placed randomly.
The first room contained many newspapers and books, while the second and third rooms contained some larger items.
Cui Xue took a quick look and saw that there were indeed many good things, but she couldn't touch
them. She lowered her eyes and wondered if she could take one or two.
However, today was not the right time, and she wasn't here for these things. After hesitating for a moment, she went into the first room.
There were really a lot of books in there, of all kinds, even calligraphy and paintings.
She flipped through them for a long time before she found a set of decent high school textbooks. She opened them and took a look. After confirming that they were correct, she found a corner to put them away.
She found two more books that interested her, took them in her hands and went out.
"You're out so soon?" The old man turned around when he heard the noise, and his eyes froze slightly when he saw the books in her hands.
"Hide well when you go out. Don't let anyone see you."
"I know, Master Eighth. I'll return it after I finish reading it."
Cui Xue put the book into the cloth bag she brought with her. Just as she looked up to say goodbye, she heard a knock on the window.
Turning her head, she saw two men standing outside the gate, one of whom was an acquaintance.
Liang Zongshan remembered the information Cui Xue told him yesterday, so he came to the town early in the morning and found his comrade who had transferred to the police here and asked him to help investigate Chen Qingyan and Wen Ting.
The two chatted for a while, and suddenly his comrade was asked by his superiors to visit the family of a martyr. He heard that the man was from Daping Village, and he followed along as if by magic.
It was an unexpected surprise to see Cui Xue here.
"Comrade Liang Zongshan." Cui Xue was the first to greet him.
"Comrade Cui Xue." He replied, and then followed his comrades to salute the old man.
The comrade and the old man looked at him and Cui Xue, and tacitly did not ask anything, but their eyes were full of gossip.
They said they were here to express their condolences, but in fact they were here to give money.
This has always been done by the Civil Affairs Department, and I don't know how it fell into the hands of the Public Security Bureau this time.
After giving the money, they didn't stay for long and quickly said goodbye and left.
After the two left, Cui Xue also said she wanted to go back.
Seeing that it was getting late, the old man did not ask her to stay, but repeatedly reminded her to be careful on the road.
On the way back to the supply and marketing cooperative to get the car, she kept thinking about Liang Zongshan. Seeing him appear with the police, she couldn't help but think of what he said yesterday. Are
they going to start investigating Chen Qingyan and the others so soon?
She didn't talk about people during the day, but she was thinking about it, and she ran into Liang Zongshan again at the supply and marketing cooperative.
"Comrade Cui Xue." This time it was Liang Zongshan who greeted her first.
"Why are you here?" Cui Xue came to her senses and was a little surprised to see him. She
had just followed the police to the scrap yard, and they parted ways so soon?
"I was planning to go back to the village."
"Me too, how about we go together?"
She had something to ask him, so she invited him without thinking, and it just so happened that the two villages were on the same road.
Perhaps knowing that she had something to ask, Liang Zongshan did not refuse.
The two 28-ton trucks drove side by side towards the village. When there was no one on the road, Cui Xue asked him if he had asked someone to check on Chen Qingyan.
"I asked my comrades to help me keep an eye on Chen Qingyan and his team's background before they went to the countryside, but there is no evidence of what happened that day, so it is difficult to convict them."
Liang Zongshan was not satisfied with the result, so when he talked about it, he pursed his lips, which made him look very serious.
"Is that so..." Cui Xue was not surprised.
If she hadn't read the book, she wouldn't have known that it was Chen Qingyan who did it. The most important thing is that he is meticulous and will not let others easily catch him.
It can only be said that he is worthy of entering the officialdom in the future. His mind is like a beehive. He is really born with a political system.
"I'm sorry." Liang Zongshan's sudden apology brought Cui Xue back to her senses.
Cui Xue:?
"I didn't do what I promised you." Seeing her confusion, he added another sentence.
"It's not your fault, you don't have to apologize."
"I've already said it, and I was thinking of giving you an explanation."
Liang Zongshan said, and the car slowed down slowly.
Cui Xue, who didn't know what was going on, also pressed the brakes. Turning around, she saw him take out a white bottle from somewhere and handed it to her.
"A gift for you."
Cui Xue looked at it, not knowing whether she should take it.
This guy was really thoughtful. He actually bought Friendship Cream. This can be considered a luxury. The wives in the village only dared to use clam oil at seven cents a bottle, and this Friendship Cream costs four and a half yuan.
"Your gift is too expensive, I don't want it." Cui Xue thought for two seconds and directly refused.
It's not right to accept such an expensive thing, and their current status is awkward, so it's really not right to accept such a thing.
Liang Zongshan didn't take back the hand he handed over, but he lowered his eyes, with a look of loss on his face.
I don't know why, seeing him like this, Cui Xue suddenly felt very sorry.
"Well, it's really not your fault. I know this matter is not so easy to investigate, and you have tried your best. That's enough. There's really no need to give such an expensive thing."
"I thought you girls all like this kind of thing, but it seems that you don't like it, so I'll just throw it away."
Without paying attention to her previous words, Liang Zongshan suddenly raised his face and said he was about to throw it away.
"Hey!" Cui Xue snatched it from his hand without thinking.
"Why are you throwing it away? This bottle is not cheap. You are wasting resources."
"I bought it for you. Since you don't like it, you might as well throw it away."
