Chapter 55: Loss of consciousness
"Who is it? What are you making noise for so late at night?"
"Police station investigating a case, open the door!"
The comrades from the police station suddenly arrived and scared the three members of the Yuan family.
"Comrade police officer, my son is innocent. How could he have committed a crime?"
Old Mrs. Yuan cried and shouted, hoping that this information would persuade the police to show mercy and not arrest Yuan Qiang.
But how could the other party fall for her tricks?
The policeman pushed away the man’s hand that was grabbing him and shouted, “Whether you are wrongly accused or not, come back with us and you will know.”
"Wait, what's going on? You have to give a reason before arresting people, right?"
At this time, Old Man Yuan came to his senses. He stepped forward to stop the man, showing unprecedented bravery.
But this time the police still did not show leniency and forcibly took the man away.
"What's going on?"
"What happened, Lao Yuan? Why was Yuan Qiang arrested?"
"Yeah, did he do something wrong?"
The police officers who came here just now were very high-profile. Almost all the neighbors knew about it and came forward to ask about it.
Old Mrs. Yuan was already anxious, and when she heard what they said, she became even angrier.
"What crime? What crime? You are the ones who committed the crime. Go away! Go away!" Old Mrs. Yuan was hysterical, making everyone look at each other in bewilderment.
But she could stop them from talking nonsense in front of her, but she couldn't stop them from talking behind her back.
Even if she used her toes to think, Old Mrs. Yuan could guess what those people were saying about the Yuan family.
Old Mrs. Yuan could never have imagined how things would turn out like this.
The granddaughter who used to be easily controlled is now out of control.
The grandson who used to follow her obediently ran away.
And the son who had just been sitting at the table and saying that he wanted to give birth to a grandson for him was kidnapped.
How could she accept it?
"What should we do? Old man, please say something. Nothing can happen to our son!"
If something happens to their son, who will take care of them in their old age?
"Old man!" What Old Lady Yuan hated most was the way he couldn't even fart for a long time. Now the sky was about to fall, but he still acted as if it had nothing to do with him. It was really cowardly.
"Is he your son?"
"Alright! You've said this twice tonight. If you have the ability, go find him yourself. What can I do if he commits a crime?"
Old Mrs. Yuan was really irritated by this bully so she went out alone.
But she is fine with offending people normally, so how would she know who to ask for help?
For some unknown reason, she suddenly thought of Yuan Lingling. If Yuan Lingling were still alive, she could at least ask Shen Caisheng for help.
Even though she was reluctant to admit it, she could only think of Shen Caisheng at this time, and she had to admit that Shen Caisheng was a capable person, at least he knew a lot of people.
After thinking about it, Old Mrs. Yuan went to Yuan's house, but didn't find anyone, so she went to the tofu shop.
At that time, Yang Xiaoxi and Zheng Changqing were making tofu in the tofu shop. When they saw her coming, both of them looked unhappy.
"How do we know about my uncle?" Yang Xiaoxi looked at Old Lady Yuan unhappily, thinking that if she really had a way, she would definitely let Yuan Qiang stay in there for a while longer.
"Looking for Shen Caisheng. I just went to their house and the door was padlocked. Where are they?"
Yang Xiaoxi was shocked, but for a moment, she curled her lips and said, "You don't know yet, Shen Caisheng and his family have moved away. Shen Caisheng and your granddaughter Yuan Lingling are no longer in Jing City."
"What!" This time Old Mrs. Yuan was really shocked.
The girl moved away, and she didn't even hear a word about it, and she didn't even inform her family about it.
"Good, very good, the dead girl is very good."
Old Mrs. Yuan screamed, which scared both Yang Xiaoxi and the other person.
Then she rushed off.
Yang Xiaoxi: "…Is she okay?"
"Don't worry about her. Evildoers will be punished by their own evildoers."
-
Yuan Lingling and her friend knew nothing about what happened in Beijing.
As soon as the two of them got out of the car at the gate of the family compound, they were greeted by a group of people, but no one came forward to greet them.
Instead, Zhou Kun smiled foolishly at the people guarding the door.
After walking a long way and making sure that no one could hear them anymore, he let out a sigh, "I just saw that those were family members. They were probably curious about you two so they came to see you. They don't mean any harm, so you don't have to take it too seriously."
Zhou Kun felt a little guilty when he said this, because the huge group of people who came just now did not look like they were here to watch the fun, but rather to cause trouble.
It was obviously impossible for Shen Caisheng to respond to this topic. Yuan Lingling was still thinking about the huge lake they had just passed by. If she really fell into the water here, the chance of survival would probably be very slim.
Zhou Kun's words passed through her mind for a moment, and she almost instinctively replied: "Those aunts are really enthusiastic."
It was a somewhat dazed answer, which seemed somewhat sarcastic to outsiders. Zhou Kun and Shen Caisheng looked at her at the same time, but the other party was still immersed in her own world, and no one knew what she was thinking.
Zhou Kun said awkwardly, "They usually get along well with each other. You will understand as you get to know them better, sister-in-law."
Yuan Lingling smiled at him and didn't notice anything unusual about the two of them.
At this moment, everyone at the door was sitting together discussing the two people they had just seen.
"If nothing else, Captain Shen and his wife are really good-looking." It is said that appearance reflects the heart, and in fact, ordinary people really can't dislike the looks of Yuan Lingling and his wife.
But there are always those who like to find fault, "You only care about their good looks, why don't you see that they don't even look at us when they see us, you are a little too arrogant."
"So what else do you want? This person has to salute you before he even moves into the family compound." Someone couldn't help but complain.
"Just speak for them and see if they will pay attention to you."
In fact, many people still have complaints about this couple who have occupied a good position before they even arrived, but this was decided by the leaders above, who said that they had already reported and were just on a mission outside, so what could be done about it.
In fact, many people do not believe this statement, or they choose not to believe it. After all, it involves their own interests.
"Forget it, stop arguing. Did you see that Captain Shen's wife's belly is so big? I'm afraid she will give birth soon. She came from so far away with a big belly. Everyone should stop making trouble for her. We are all women."
The phrase "they are all women" silenced most people.
This group of people, some used to have jobs in the city, some worked as farmers in the countryside. It was not easy for them to come here for their own families, so there was really no need to make things difficult for each other.
Since some things have become a certainty, why bother about them if they cannot be changed.
"Let's go, let's go..."
When everyone dispersed, Yuan Lingling finally came back to her senses.
The yard in front of her was not big, but it was more to her liking than she had imagined.
The yard is similar to a rural private plot. There is not much vacant space in the yard. Most of it has become a vegetable field, and the soil has even been loosened.
This reminded Yuan Lingling of the saying that farming is engraved in the genes of flower growers.
She smiled.
"What's wrong?" Shen Caisheng had been paying attention to her. Seeing that she finally smiled, he couldn't help but ask.
"It's okay. I just think I can grow a lot of vegetables here and I'll be happy."
Hearing this, Zhou Kun also breathed a sigh of relief. "I was afraid that my sister-in-law wouldn't like it. Not every sister-in-law in this family compound likes to grow vegetables. Some sisters-in-law don't like to grow vegetables. They grow flowers and plants in the vegetable garden, which is also very beautiful."
Of course, some sisters-in-law's yards are full of weeds, and snakes, insects, rats and ants pop up from time to time in the summer. Looking at Yuan Lingling's belly, he didn't say this after all.
Helping to carry the things in, Zhou Kun said, "Captain Shen, sister-in-law, you guys pack up first, I'll go tell Regiment Su."
"Thank you." Shen Caisheng said.
"Don't be polite, let's go, I'll come pick you up later."
As soon as he left, Shen Caisheng asked her worriedly, "What happened to you just now? Are you feeling unwell? I saw that you didn't look very well."
"Really?" Yuan Lingling couldn't tell how she felt, so she could only say, "No, I just arrived in a new environment and I'm trying to adapt. This place seems pretty good."
The sky is clear and the air is fresh. Although it is located in a hilly area, there is no smog everywhere like in later generations. The air is very good and the scenery is beautiful. Such a place is very suitable for recuperation.
Seeing that what she said was not false, Shen Caisheng nodded and said, "As long as you like it, you must tell me if you are not used to it. Don't keep everything in your heart."
Hearing this, Yuan Lingling smiled helplessly. She really couldn't hide anything from him, but she couldn't say anything. She could only respond, "I know."
If she didn't want to say something, Shen Caisheng would never ask any more questions even if he guessed something.
He nodded and said, "Well, then you take a rest and see what else is missing. Make a list and I'll clean it up first."
How could Yuan Lingling let him clean up the house alone? This was their home together.
Although cleaning up a new home is tiring, it is also a very happy thing.
Zhou Kun was very thoughtful. He had cleaned the house inside and out before they arrived, and it was almost spotless.
Yuan Lingling and the other person only needed to put their own things away.
The room here is not like the big kang she had in Beijing. There is a double bed in the room. No matter how big a double bed is, it is not bigger than the big kang in the north. Yuan Lingling felt inexplicably embarrassed when she was cleaning up.
Although the living conditions here are not bad, there are only two rooms in total. In addition to the bedroom, the two of them plan to use the other room as a study.
However, they did not have many books, so after discussing it, they decided to use it as Yuan Lingling's tool room.
When this matter was first mentioned, Shen Caisheng was a little confused. He thought that Yuan Lingling's initial idea of learning those carpentry skills was purely a spur of the moment thing to pass the time. Later, he found out that Yuan Lingling was really interested in this matter, so he readily agreed to her request.
There is a large table in the study, which is completely suitable for her to operate.
Shen Caisheng moved a wooden box from a pile of parcels. The wooden box was sent from Beijing and was very heavy.
"What's in this? It was so heavy when I pushed it just now."
Yuan Lingling had never seen this thing before.
Shen Caisheng opened the wooden box and revealed the contents.
"This is..." Yuan Lingling was a little surprised. There was actually a complete set of carving tools inside. When Yuan Lingling was at home, she followed Shen Caisheng to do carpentry work, but she actually did little carving. She didn't expect that the other party would find out that what she was really interested in was not making those wooden products but carving objects.
"When did you get ready?" she asked.
"Did you like it when I saw you carving that spoon before?"
Yuan Lingling nodded. "I like it. I like it very much. Thank you."
"I'll accompany you to choose some good wood then." Shen Caisheng said as he sorted out his tools.
Yuan Lingling looked at his profile, walked up to him and kissed him gently.
