Chapter 71

Speaking of things like being shameless to see people, the old and the young present are actually the same, including Wang Yali in the park and Li Xiuling in the dance hall.

However, at present, Li Xiuling, Zhou Xianghong and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law still don’t understand each other’s situation. As a bystander, Zhang Xiaofen knows it very well.

She asked, and Zhou Xianghong naturally said to her the same thing she had said to Wang Yali, intermittently, and finally heard it roughly.

Zhang Xiaofen also felt emotion. Wang Yali did this to make up for the sake of living, she did this to supplement the family income, and Li Xiuling was because her family was really in trouble, but who would have thought that her daughter-in-law and mother-in-law all jumped into the quagmire one by one.

But as the saying goes, if you die in the well, you will not die in the river. It can only be said that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have reached this point today, which is fate.

She was also in a dilemma. She was also helping Li Xiuling hide it from her mother-in-law. She turned around and asked her to help her hide it from her daughter-in-law.

What's the matter with this!

She could understand the mentality that both of them begged not to reveal to each other. Zhang Xiaofen was so close to each other, so it was hard enough for them to see that their family was so fragmented because of this.

She had no choice but to comfort Zhou Xianghong. Now that things have come to this point, what else can she say? She can swallow any suffering.

The latter gradually calmed down his emotions, and the thrust was just wiping away tears.

The two were talking when the sound of the key being inserted into the door came from outside the door. Zhang Xiaofen quickly pulled Zhou Xianghong: Auntie, let's go into the house and talk... The two of them just walked to the door of her house. The door opened. A man came in first. When he saw Zhang Xiaofen, he was stunned and turned around and said: Oh, are there anyone else here?

Immediately afterwards, Wang Yali also entered the house and closed the door while answering: It's okay, my sister.Let's play with us... When she looked up, she was shocked when she saw that it was Zhang Xiaofen and asked stammeringly: Oh, Fener... Why are you... What... She saw that the person entering the room was Zhou Xianghong, and she didn't know what to say to Zhang Xiaofen.

Zhang Xiaofen waved her hand: It's okay, you're busy with yours.We both went back to chat... I knew... I'll talk about Ah later... As he said that, he entered the house and closed the door.

Wang Yali's heart was pounding, and she realized that Zhou Xianghong's incident was exposed.

The man looked at Zhang Xiaofen's legs wearing black stockings under his short skirt, and asked curiously: This doesn't look like your sister...

Ah…this…this…this little sister…

Oh, your little sister is very exciting...

Ah...Ah... Come, let's go to this room... Wang Yali said calmly and took the man to her room. After all, she couldn't let go of the business of the door.

The man walked and glanced into the crack in the door of the room: Hey, is your little sister doing this too?Why haven’t I seen it in the park? You just said that your sister, you three live here?Next time I will introduce it to me...

The two of them sat silently after entering the house. Soon, Wang Yali was working next door.

Zhou Xianghong was thus reminded of the situation he had just now. After Zhang Xiaofen heard it clearly, she couldn't help but feel more embarrassed and sad.

Zhang Xiaofen didn't know how to comfort her, so she wanted to speak but stopped.

Wang Yali was unsure, so she tried her best to win the man as soon as possible. The man cooperated very well. After only a while, the house returned to quiet.

Seeing the man go, she hurriedly pushed open Zhang Xiaofen's door. Zhou Xianghong just sat down and sobbed, and Zhang Xiaofen looked up at her.

Fener Ah...what...sister...no, aunt didn't let me talk about this... Wang Yali said hesitantly.

Zhang Xiaofen frowned and silently pointed at her with her fingers, and stood up: Aunt Ah, don’t cry.Every family has difficult sutras. You see, you have difficulties, and our sisters can't help you... Then don't worry, Xiuling promises to hide it from you. My sister definitely can't say it's bald... I'm just coming back to change my shoes, who would have thought... Oh, forget it, I'm back... Sister, take care of Aunt Zhou Ah... Don't let her suffer... As she said that, she turned around and wanted to leave.

Zhou Xianghong held her hand again, sobbing and saying nothing.

She had no choice but to comfort Zhou Xianghong again, and the latter then let go.

When she left the house, Wang Yali advised: Auntie, stop crying, you see, your eyes are swollen... Fen'er, don't worry, she ordered you to hide it, and you can't miss this matter no matter what... While talking, I thought to myself, isn't Zhang Xiaofen and herself also helping to hide it from Zhou Xianghong? The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, alas...

Sometimes when you tear apart something like the skin, you will feel more open-minded.

Zhou Xianghong recovered, and Wang Yali twisted a cold towel to apply her eyes.

After a while, she asked the other party to see it, but her eyes were not swollen, but her eyes were still red.

Wang Yali thought about letting her rest at home, but she didn't expect that Zhou Xianghong would make her feel at ease and asked her to go first and go home to see her son and then arrive.

After a while when Wang Yali arrived at the park, she saw Zhou Xianghong appearing next to the woods with a small bag.

She met: Aunt...Big sister...Zhou Xianghong waved her hand and signaled that she was fine.

Only then did Wang Yali see that she had put on makeup, the sausage on her face was wiped with fresh wipes, and her hair was combed neatly. It didn't look like she had something to do, so she felt relieved and the two of them strolled together to find customers.

Lao Wu is 48 years old this year and has worked as a police officer in the police station for eighteen years.

During the Cultural Revolution, he was a worker in a factory in S City. He was in good health when he started working. He was first transferred from the workshop to the security department, which was actually affiliated with the factory revolution committee at that time. Later, he was transferred to the current police station as an auxiliary police officer after the turmoil. Later, he was transferred to the official position.

Due to his low education and no connections, he has never had a chance to get promoted until now.

At this age, he also took it easy and accepted his fate. Thinking about it, he at least didn't stay in the factory. Otherwise, he would have been out of work like his previous workers.

When the transfer was transferred back then, no one liked to come. He thought the police station was so tiring and not as comfortable as the factory, so he kicked him out.

People are unpredictable in their fate, and who can foresee whether it is a blessing or a disaster.

After eighteen years as a police officer, the people around him came one after another and were promoted one after another. Until now, Lao Wu has become the oldest person in the institute.

Even dirty and tiring work cannot escape him. Every director has verbal praises, but he has no share in advance and no share in upgrading.

That's fine, Old Wu is open-minded.

But as soon as the reform and opening up was revitalized, there were people in the local area who were doing business and mixed society, and they all hoped to find a backer in the public security, procuratorial and judicial teams.

Although the police station is small, the county magistrate is not as good as the current management. After all, it is the final say in the field. It is inevitable that someone will come to get involved, invite food and drink, and stuff red envelopes.

I never expected that these people were also snobbish. Whoever had the ability would win over him. At first, someone invited Lao Wu to drink a few drinks, but later no one cared about it.

He knew that these people should not eat for free, drink for free, and money should not be taken for free. After working for so many years, he understood the laws and regulations. Therefore, it would be better not to get involved in such things. Of course, the benefits of being small are naturally a little bit occasionally.

But everyone around me was working on relationships and helping with things, and no one had any problems.

Therefore, his wife often complained that she was not capable of being a human being, and she didn't find a way to make some money when she was powered.

Get some?

Old Wu also thought, but unfortunately there is nothing in vain in the world.

Therefore, there are many things happening in this small police station throughout the year, and it is not his turn to have good fortune.

As his wife scolded her a lot, he gradually became irritable, but when he arrived at the institute, he was still a good old man, a little principled old man.

Two days ago, he and another person went to a dance hall where the film was in charge of the film to investigate. He knew that this job was actually to help the new young man. His father was said to be from the Municipal Intermediate Court. He was a newcomer and had to meet all the monsters and monsters on the territory.

The reason why he has his share is purely because he is an old man and has relatively steady work.

Before leaving, the director also specifically instructed him to pay attention to the influence when he went there. Without him, Old Wu also understood that the dance hall had a backstage. Everyone knew what the dance hall was. How could it be opened without a backstage?

He never got involved in the edge of the place before, and if there is something wrong, there will be people with superiors.

The two of them walked around and after they came back, they investigated and reported that it was his job.

It was not in vain. When I saw the venue, I stuffed two pieces on the back seat of the Jeep when I was sent out.

This thing is nothing at all. The young man is quite good at doing things, so he left all the cigarettes to him.

Old Wu wrote a report absent-mindedly. For him, the biggest gain of this job was not those two cigarettes, but seeing a person while doing the investigation.

The report was handed over to the director. It is said that it was for the criminal police team to do work. Because I don’t know what the case is, I can’t ask more questions. This is the rule.

Old Wu lit a cigarette and fell into memories in the smoke.

My wife was introduced by someone when she was in the factory.

In those days, we had to introduce them. The two of them were well-mannered. To put it bluntly, they were all poor and innocent families. They came together for the sake of the revolution, and even when they met, they had to shout the highest instructions.

A few months later, others urged me to say that it was almost done, and I had to apply to the organization. After the organization review, they said that the two were good, as if they could contribute high-quality descendants to the Proletarian Revolution, so they got married with approval.

After marriage, my life became more and more dull and boring. In the past two years, my wife entered menopause and began to point fingers at him again. From work to life to him, she didn't even look at him, and her words were mostly sarcastic.

When it comes to feelings, family affection has naturally existed over the years, but love is really undeniable.

But who didn't have the passion to burn when he was young and energetic? He originally liked another girl in the factory.

The reason why it failed was actually that there was no beginning at all, just because the girl’s family was not well-deserved.

Back then, the so-called ingredients were the highest standard for measuring a person.

No matter how talented you are, as long as your ingredients are not good, others will hide from you like plague, even your eyes are different, as if something will happen if you touch it.

He had just started working at that time, and he was still Xiao Wu, so he didn't dare to get involved, but who could explain the first love clearly? The more he hid, the clearer the figure in his heart became.

Later it was said that the girl first announced that she had drawn a clear line with her parents, and then participated in the big slew. Then no one could tell where she was. Some people said that she was killed by a machine gun in the subsequent fight, and some people said that she was lost after her family was criticized and was mentally ill.

In short, there is no trace, no one can live or die or corpses.

After all, Lao Wu's first love didn't even leave a photo, and no one knew that in that chaotic era, a young man with a poor peasant had a crush on a descendant of a landlord, rich, and bad, and bad.

Later he got married.

This memory is like a file that no one reads, covered in dust, and gradually locked into the deepest part of his heart.

However, the woman in the dance hall appeared, like a dangerous light, suddenly appeared in front of him, and then penetrated into his heart.

The eyebrows and eyes were quite similar to the person in her memory, so when he saw it for the first time, he thought he had returned to thirty years ago.

Those dusty things and those young thoughts that were back then surging faintly for a moment.

Of course, she was less than twenty at that time, but the woman looked like she was twenty-seven or eight.

But memory will continue to blur over time, and at the same time, self-replenishment is particularly strong. The two of them have somehow gradually got together in his heart, and the more they think about it, the more they feel similar.

If she was still there, if she hadn't dared to contact her for one reason or another at that time, if the person who had been with her for more than twenty years was her...

Old Wu wiped the corners of his eyes and sighed.

After get off work, he still went home, was scolded by his wife, and was still squatting with the neighbors at the entrance of the alley, but there was something inexplicable in his heart that was filled with people, making people feel dazed.

A few days later, the wife quarreled with him because of some trivial matters, and then went to visit her sister's house in anger.

His son was studying in another place, so he was the only one left at home when he got home from get off work.

He was in a bad mood, so he simply fryed a dish in a small restaurant outside and started drinking it himself. The more he drank, the more he felt life was boring, and the more he drank, the more he felt frustrated.

He didn't drink much, but he had the ability to control himself and didn't drink too much, but the alcohol was a specialty to cure sobriety. When the breeze came out of the restaurant, he began to wander aimlessly. When he got to his feet, he found that he was already standing at the entrance of the dance hall he had investigated two days ago.

It was the lights that were just coming and people came and went in the door of the dance hall.

He paused, walked forward and walked forward. When he reached the street corner, he turned around like a devil. He stared at the gate for a long time, and finally threw the cigarette butt on the ground, crushed it with his feet, and walked in.

Although this place is definitely not clean, it is at least a normal social occasion. I just went in by myself. What else can I do?

The situation inside was very different from when he came before. As soon as he entered the dark place, he could only see shadows shaking everywhere.

He first tried to match the pattern of the dance hall in his memory, and then he ran around to hide from the people.

It is difficult for anyone to recognize him in this darkness, and his originally nervous heart calmed down a lot.

After walking around for a while, he felt a little thirsty, so he went to the bar to buy a bottle of soda, and looked around with his eyes that were adapted to the light while drinking.

The dance hall is in a lively time. In a small brighter area near the bar, several pairs of men and women were dancing to the music. He didn't understand any routine. His eyes were on the dancing and the people watching the fun around him, and then he turned to another area. The area was obviously larger, but there were only a few dim lights, and there were more people, but most of them couldn't see their faces clearly.

After returning the empty bottle, he lit a cigarette and slowly walked over the crack.

The first one to find him was naturally the elder brother who looked at the venue.

This person was originally a ruffian on the street. Because he was old, he defected to the boss of the dance hall, calling him the security guard.

The boss gave him a few young men, and he was not usually used when there were scenes that needed to be taken.

But this kind of mixed situation is inevitable, and you must be familiar with both black and white.

The old ruffian is at ease with this and is very at ease with the boss, so he becomes the head of the security guards.

Relying on the accumulated experience and the reputation you have made, you are in charge. You will never make a fuss when you should do it. You can try to spend as little as possible.

When Lao Wu was drinking soda, he was in the cottage behind the bar, but the light was not turned on. He recognized at a glance that this person was the policeman who came to investigate a few days ago. Those two 35 were stuffed by him.

Although the dance hall has a backstage, the film police are the front-line figures in maintaining public order, so it is still necessary to maintain good relationships.

Seeing that Old Wu was wearing casual clothes, he probably didn't think he could turn against him on the spot, and he couldn't go forward directly to inquire about the purpose of the visit, so he followed slowly behind his back to see what was going on.

Lao Wu walked around the periphery of the Black Light District.

He couldn't say what he was wandering around.

In it, you can vaguely see men and women hugging each other, and occasionally you can see the white patches of unknown body through the cracks of people.

This is not a good place. He regretted it a little and began to walk out slowly.

Two people came towards him. When he and the others were at the wrong time, they suddenly saw a woman's face not far away, and their hearts were stuttering.

The woman was standing aside, but was turning around and following a man into the darkness of the dance floor.

Old Wu took two steps, but he could no longer see two people when he arrived.

He stretched his neck and looked in, so dark that he couldn't tell who was who. After thinking about it, he finally decided to stand there and wait.

So Zhang Xiaofen was the second to discover him.

With her smart spirit, some regular customers who come and see off and those who need extra attention are always kept in mind.

It was an accident to remember Lao Wu. After all, there were few times when she faced the police. In addition, she looked at Lao Wu and looked at Li Xiuling that day, so she remembered it very much.

But when Zhang Xiaofen discovered it, it was too late.

Li Xiuling and the other person had just come out after three songs. Old Wu had been observing for a long time. He knew that if he didn't take action, someone might be intercepted. He rushed up immediately and took her away.

Before Li Xiuling could see the person clearly, she was dragged and turned around and got out of the scene in a daze.

At that time, Zhang Xiaofen was coming back from the water bar. When she realized that she was hugging Li Xiuling, the man was a policeman and wanted to remind her to pay attention, the two had already entered the crowd, so she was so anxious that she waved her hands outside. Unfortunately, Li Xiuling probably didn't see it.

It was a coincidence that an old man who had been looking for Zhang Xiaofen several times stood beside him. He thought Zhang Xiaofen was hooking up with him, so he happily walked over and hugged her.

Zhang Xiaofen was anxious, and after saying perfunctory words to the old man, he realized that this was a good opportunity to get to Li Xiuling to remind her, so he took the initiative to push his chest against the old man's chest. The old man pushed him halfway and half as he shook into the dance floor with her.
