Chapter 28 The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop
Ouyang Zimin showed a calmness and composure that was different from his age. He did not answer Che Dajun directly, but said softly: "We are still brothers. I will come back to Ye He at this time next year!" After that, he did not look back and followed.
He left the car shop behind Boss Qin.
Che Dajun felt his heart ached. He didn't understand why Ouyang Zimin, who was like a brother, chose Boss Qin regardless of his brotherly feelings. Later, he met Mr. Qin several times and kept in touch, but he didn't know why.
, he always felt that since he changed his surname, they would never return to the same emotion as before, unable to ignore each other and talk about everything.
To this day, Che Dajun doesn't know whether Mr. Qin's choice was out of fear of dragging down their family, or whether he disliked being poor and loved being rich. He never asked, and Mr. Qin never explained it.
Che Dajun did not talk about the past with Tian Hongshan. He handed the wrapped money to Tian Hongshan and said:
"We must not touch these two thousand yuan. You put the money in a jar and bury it in a safe place. Don't tell anyone, including your family!"
"Since the money is not returned, it is God's will. What does it matter if we spend it?" Tian Hongshan is not a money-grubbing person, but since the money has been left behind, it would be a pity to bury it again.
"Just listen to me. If you spend this money, you will definitely be in trouble!" Che Dajun's attitude was very firm.
Tian Hongshan didn't dwell on the matter anymore. He took the money home and secretly put it in a rice vat. He took the money out early the next morning and secretly buried it under a pine tree in his family's cemetery.
The old Miao family collapsed and their vitality was completely damaged. Few people in the entire village interacted with their family anymore. Miao's daughter-in-law recovered from the hiccups, but her stomach began to bloate. It became more bloated day by day and she could not even cook.
Already.
Tian Hongshan discovered that his daughter-in-law Dong Cuilian was not normal these days, and she became lavish in spending money. She made new clothes for everyone in the family, and bought herself cream and other luxury accessories. Tian Hongshan knew that the family did not have such extra money at all, so she
When Cuilian asked Cuilian where the money came from, Cuilian hesitated and told him that he borrowed it from her parents' family.
It happened that Tian Hongshan's father-in-law was killing pigs, and the whole family went to eat pork. He accidentally asked Cuilian about money, and it turned out that Cuilian had lied. When he got home, he called his wife to him with the help of wine.
Said fiercely:
"You prodigal old woman, you can really fucking lie. You didn't borrow money from your parents' family at all. Tell me the truth, where did you get the money? If you don't tell the truth, I'll beat you to death!"
"You don't care where I did it? Anyway, it wasn't stolen or robbed!" Cuilian said sternly.
"Fart! How can our family have money to ruin your fortune? You can't be?..." Tian Hongshan said halfway, suddenly realizing something, and asked with a trembling voice: "You can't be the one who took it from the rice vat.
Bar?"
Cuilian turned her head and remained silent.
Tian Hongshan understood immediately and became furious. He pulled back his wife's hair and cursed: "Damn you! How much did you take?"
Cuilian was in pain and immediately quit. While breaking Tian Hongshan's hand with her hand, she also yelled: "I married you because I was blind. I have been poor with you all my life, and I can't get better for a day! You have no good conscience."
You bastard, you don’t spend your money at home, but you hide it here and there, are you someone outside?"
"Damn it! That money is not mine, how dare you touch any money? You are in big trouble!" Tian Hongshan's eyes turned red.
"Whose property is it if it's not yours? Did you hide other people's money with you? Who did you lie to? I've had enough with you. I'll take the child back to my parents' home tomorrow, and you can just live on your own with the money in your arms!" Cui!
Lian felt aggrieved.
"You...you..." Tian Hongshan couldn't tell the source of the money, and his wife choked him and was speechless.
"Besides, I didn't spend this money on myself! Didn't you also wear new clothes? I don't have a good conscience like you and just care about myself!" Cuilian saw Tian Hongshan let go of his hand, and the more she spoke, the more aggrieved she became.
, started to shed tears.
Tian Hongshan's anger subsided a little. He thought about how much hardship his wife and he had endured over the years. Seeing her crying sadly, he felt a little distressed. However, he had no way to tell his wife the truth, so he sighed and said:
"Daughter-in-law, it's not that I won't tell you the truth. This matter involves a lot, and it could cause big trouble!"
"Did this money come from a good source? Was it stolen? How can this be done? I took out two hundred yuan from each pile of money, and now the four hundred yuan has been spent by more than one hundred yuan. You just want to pay me back?"
It's not enough to go back! No, I'll go back to my parents' house tomorrow to borrow it. Where did you steal it from? Hurry up and send it back secretly!" Cuilian thought that the two thousand yuan was not a good deal, and she suddenly became nervous.
"Hey, why should I steal? Don't you understand your own family? But this money really doesn't belong to me. When did I lie to you? You have to believe me!" There was a plea in Tian Hongshan's words.
"What should we do? I'll go back to my parents' house tomorrow to borrow money!" Cuilian still believed in Tian Hongshan from the bottom of her heart.
Tian Hongshan thought for a while, shook his head and said: "Forget it, take everything, that's it. Spend the rest of the money sparingly, don't let people think you are a nouveau riche!"
When Cuilian heard what Tian Hongshan said, she had an expression of regret on her face. She looked at Tian Hongshan's face and said cautiously: "My fifth sister-in-law and I told her that you made a lot of money, but I didn't let her spread the word. She
I also agreed, nothing will happen, right?"
"It's over. Her mouth is as loose as the waistband of her cotton trousers. How about you tell her if there's anything else?" Tian Hongshan frowned.
"What should we do? How about I go explain to her and say that you didn't earn the money!" Cuilian almost regretted her words.
"Forget it, the more you describe it, the darker it gets. Is it a blessing or a curse? You can't avoid it, just let it be your fate!" Tian Hongshan sighed and waved his hand to Cuilian.
Tian Hongshan was lucky, thinking nothing would happen, and did not tell Che Dashan about the situation. However, he was still a little worried, but after a few days, he gradually forgot about it and his life returned to normal.
Near the end of the year, what Che Dashan was worried about still happened, but the cause was not Cuilian's quick talk, but an unexpected incident.
At the end of the new year, Xiao Chengzi and Xiao Tao went to Chejiagou Mountain to make sledges (tree roots exposed outside the soil, smashed down with an ax and used to burn stoves for warmth). The snow on the mountain was very thick, and the two of them pulled a sledge deep into the mountain.
I reached the halfway point of the mountain with one foot and one foot and started working.
Xiao Chengzi was relatively lazy. After working for a while, he began to cry out that he was tired and needed to rest. He sat down on the snow, but felt that it was hard under his butt. He thought it was a stone, so he subconsciously pulled it with his hands a few times. Unexpectedly, something was exposed in the snow.
He picked up his furry tail and said to Xiao Tao while picking up the snow:
"Brother, there is a bad guy here!"
"You still dare to touch it? Bury it quickly!" Xiao Tao's face turned pale now.
