After Wang Gang returned home, he learned from Liu Shufang that both Niu Dali and Yao Yuling had moved out of the compound, and their jobs had also been transferred. One went to the station transportation department to work as a coal shovel, and the other went to the broadcasting room to do odd jobs. They may never be able to work again in the future.
go on the train.
To be honest, when he heard the news, Wang Gang was neither happy nor sad. He didn't feel happy or uncomfortable.
Although he didn't like Yao Yuling and Niu Dali, he didn't regard them as enemies. In other words, these two people were not worthy of being his enemies.
What happened to Yao Yuling and Niu Dali was caused by Liu Xuanhu, who just wanted them to move out of the compound.
Liu Xuanhu didn't waste much effort. After all, the two of them were just grassroots railway workers and lived in staff dormitories. Transfers were a normal thing.
Yao Yuling and Niu Dali didn't even realize that someone was messing with them.
On the day they moved out of the compound, not many people came to see them off. Except for Wu Changgui's family and Lu Hongxing's family, who were closer to the two of them, the others were just ordinary neighbors, and their relationship was far from comparable to Wang Xin's.
As the days passed, life in the compound returned to calm. Wang Gang became more and more comfortable in the criminal police team. He used his painting skills to solve many cases. If he were not too young, Team Chen would have wanted him to be in charge of the criminal investigation team.
In a unit like the Criminal Police Team, if you want to be promoted, ability alone is not enough, you must go through seniority. Fortunately, Wang Gang is not in a hurry.
Ma Kui and Wang Sufang failed to adopt the abandoned baby in the end. Meng Qingshan took the lead and had no choice.
Afterwards, Wang Sufang came up with the idea of having another baby and asked Liu Shufang to take care of her health.
Although the Northeast was promoting family planning at this time, it had not yet become a regulation. It was not until 1981 that family planning was officially established. Therefore, Wang Sufang wanted to have a second child, and she only had the opportunity in these two years.
Ma Yan is quite supportive of her mother having a second child. Her idea is very simple. After they have a child, Ma Kui and Wang Sufang's energy will definitely be transferred to the child. Then no one will care about her, and they will have time to find a new partner with Wang.
.
Ma Kui and Wang Sufang objected to Ma Yan and Wang Xin being together, which had the opposite effect. Ma Yan became stubborn and insisted on dating Wang Xin, regardless of the past of the two families.
Wang Xin originally had scruples, but men chased women across the street, and women chased men across the street. Under Ma Yan's initiative, Wang Xin quickly surrendered, and the two secretly fell in love behind Ma Kui's back.
Ma Kui drives around all day long and has no way to take care of his daughter. Wang Sufang is preoccupied with preparing for pregnancy. Although she is aware of it, she really has no energy to take care of Ma Yan.
The two of them secretly spent time together for a year, but they both had a sense of propriety and didn't do anything out of the ordinary. At most, they just hugged each other.
The King of Heaven had just returned home from get off work and met Ma Kui when he returned to the compound.
"Xiao Wang, are you free soon? Come to my house for a drink." Ma Kui enthusiastically invited Wang Gang.
"Uncle Ma, I'll be here in a minute." Wang Gang didn't refuse. He knew Ma Kui had something to do with him.
Today, Team Chen of the Interpol Team came to see him and mentioned Ma Kui's job transfer.
That's right, because of his outstanding work ability, Ma Kui was spotted by Team Chen and was poached to join the criminal police team. He also wanted Ma Kui and Wang Gang to form a team to support the criminal investigation team.
Of course Wang Gang would not object to this. He and Ma Kui already have a good relationship.
Wang Gang went home first, parked his bicycle, and told Liu Shufang that he would not be at home for dinner that evening.
"Go to Ma Kui's house and take this with you." Liu Shufang handed Wang Gang two pairs of traditional Chinese medicine.
Wang Gang took the medicine and asked: "Who is sick?"
Liu Shufang said: "It's your Aunt Wang's pregnancy medicine."
Wang Gang raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Is she really pregnant by them? Uncle Ma can do it! The sword is not old yet."
"Alas, in fact, with Wang Sufang's body, she shouldn't have another child, but she only wants to give Ma Kui a son to make up for her regrets. She is risking her life." Liu Shufang sighed.
"Does Uncle Ma know?" Wang Gang asked strangely: "With his character, he shouldn't!"
"Sufang is hiding this from Ma Kui, so don't let it slip." Liu Shufang reminded.
Wang Gang frowned and said, "That's not good. If Aunt Wang does something bad, will Uncle Ma blame us? After all, this is a family matter and we shouldn't get involved."
"Who says it's not the case?" Liu Shufang sighed: "But Sufang begged me to keep it a secret, and it's hard for me to do it!"
Wang Gang took the medicine, shook his head, and said, "I'll find a way to let Uncle Ma know Aunt Wang's physical condition. As for whether they want the child or not, let them make their own decision."
Liu Shufang hesitated to speak, and after thinking about it, she nodded in agreement.
Wang Gang came to Ma's house with the medicine and found that not only the three members of Ma's family were there, but there were also two strangers, a man and a woman, who looked like father and daughter.
"Uncle Ma, we have guests at home! Then I'll come over for a drink next time." Wang Gang said as he put down the anti-fetal medicine.
"No! Let's all drink together. I just want to introduce you to a friend." Ma Kui pulled Wang Gang enthusiastically and forced him to sit down.
"This is Peng Mingjie, my old friend for many years. We met on the train not long ago." Ma Kui pointed at the man.
"Hello, you are the Wang Gang that Lao Ma often mentions! You are indeed a talented person."
Peng Mingjie is well-spoken and has an official air about him. He seems to be a small leader. The girl next to him is called Peng Yongli. She is his daughter. She came to Ningyang to attend college this year and stopped by to visit her old friend Ma Kui.
Ma Kui and Peng Mingjie had a life-long friendship. They met at the labor camp. However, Peng Mingjie was not a prisoner. He was the captain of the labor camp. He was later transferred to Harbin and became a small leader. At his current age, he may not be able to become a leader in the future.
Warden.
Peng Mingjie lost his wife in his early years and raised his daughter Peng Yongli alone. Her daughter is also doing well. She was admitted to a university in Ningyang this year and is a college student.
College students are still very popular these days. Ma Kui liked Peng Yongli the first time he saw her. Thinking of Wang Gang, he started to think about protecting her as a matchmaker.
"Yong Li, you and Wang Gang are about the same age. We can get along more with each other in the future. Xiao Wang is very good. He did not give up studying after graduating from the police academy. I heard that he will soon be recommended to go to university for training."
"Yeah!" Peng Yongli nodded shyly.
Peng Mingjie was also a sophisticated person, so how could he not see what his old friend was thinking. He carefully observed Wang Gang and was initially satisfied.
Wang Gang is not bad looking, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, a strong figure, and a sunny atmosphere, which suits Peng Mingjie very well.
"Xiao Wang, I heard that you have a skill in painting and have repeatedly solved strange cases?" Peng Mingjie picked up the wine glass and asked Wang Gang.
Ma Yan said with a smile: "Uncle Peng, Wang Gang is not that good at painting. Not only can he draw a person's appearance through description, he can also draw what a child will look like when he grows up."
"Really." Peng Mingjie rolled his eyes and asked, "Xiao Wang, can you do me a small favor?"
Wang Gang smiled and said: "You are Uncle Ma's friend and my elder. I will help you if I can."
Peng Mingjie glanced at his daughter and said, "Yongli lost her mother when she was young, and her mother didn't leave any photos. Can you help me draw a portrait of her mother?"
"Of course it's no problem." Wang Gang said, "I can paint after dinner."
Peng Mingjie was so happy that he didn't even bother to drink. Ma Kui understood his old friend's mood and asked Wang Gang to finish the painting first and then eat.
Of course Wang Gang didn't care. He went home and brought some painting tools, and then asked Peng Mingjie to describe his deceased wife's appearance.
Looking at the face of his late wife that was gradually taking shape on the drawing paper, Peng Mingjie, who was in his dozens of years, burst into tears.
Peng Yongli didn't feel much better, her eyes were red, and there was an unknown look in her eyes when she looked at Wang Gang.
It was just a painting. Peng Mingjie and his daughter had a better impression of Wang Gang, and Ma Kui laughed happily.
