Chapter 13 Chapter Thirteen

During my second vacation, I went to Shenzhen, Zhuhai, and Xiamen for a tour of several special zones. When I came back, I opened my mouth to Shenzhen and closed my mouth to Zhuhai. We all ate fatty meat every day as if we had no other food. Dizziness and nausea.My dad also made him suffer unbearably, saying that thanks to you, you went to a special zone. If you go to the United States, you may even have to change your surname to Mei when you come back.I didn’t argue with my father in my second life, but said to me afterwards: “Brother, you didn’t go to see how prosperous it is, how beautiful the environment is, and how fresh the air is. Compared with the south, our place is like a desert, it’s a place in the middle.” Pigou is a reform-through-labor farm. Our father is really pitiful all his life. He didn’t work well as a government official in the provincial capital, and went to this small border town to do some construction. He made a wrong step and lived in a ghostly place that is not suitable for human existence. For most of his life, he left our generation here, he not only cheated himself, but also cheated our generation."

I hadn’t been to the SAR at that time, but I watched the SAR on TV. The scenery and urban construction were indeed much better than ours, and the people seemed to be richer than us, and their lives were like capitalism.It is said that Shenzhen used to be a small fishing village, a transit point for smuggled immigrants from the mainland to Hong Kong. The central government made it a special zone, and it suddenly became such a good place.We people have built a modern industrial city for the country in this remote barren mountain and a large industrial base with an annual output value of tens of billions. Why doesn't the central government let us also be a special zone? up?I asked Erqian: "Since special zones are so good, why doesn't the central government turn the whole country into special zones?" China will not be socialism if it becomes a special zone, and then it is said that the special zone is a pilot project, and it can only be promoted after the experiment is successful.I didn't understand what he meant after listening to it. He has not yet reached the level of giving advice to the central government. I conclude that he is also confused about these major national issues related to doctrine. In fact, I guess I must agree with the central government: he himself has not figured out what is going on in the SAR.

"After I came back, I thought about it for a long time. I can no longer hang around here for the rest of my life, and we can't let our next generation spend their lives in this remote town again." I said, "You really think that place is good, so you might as well find a way to transfer there." Er Chuxi said: "What place do you think you can transfer to if you want? Even if I transfer, what will Xiao Linzi and his wife do? I can't leave them here. But sooner or later I have to go, Wait for the opportunity." Er Chuxi was at my house when I was talking about this with me.Ye Shengnan went out to play mahjong again, Eggy played house with the second-year daughter, and Xiaolinzi, the younger sister-in-law, helped us with the laundry.Hearing that he wanted to be transferred to the Special Economic Zone, Xiao Linzi interjected, "I support you. If you can't do it, you can go first. I'm here with Bao Bao. We can go there after you have laid the foundation." Bao Bao belongs to them. My dear daughter, my niece, a very charming little girl.Eggy is a naughty bald boy, and sometimes he finds it annoying. Ye Shengnan has said many times that he wants to trade Eggy for the baby, but Eggy firmly opposes it and the baby is also determined not to agree.

"Going out to play cards again?" Er Chuxi tilted his chin towards our bedroom. My face is hot, and my heart is tired.I, Yang Wei, used to be all-powerful, but now I am helpless against Ye Shengnan.The two families chased her together and finally cured her "chorea". Now she is infected with "leprosy". She can play mahjong like crazy and can not eat or drink.Playing mahjong is one of the forms of entertainment that I hate the most. It is a drug that anesthetizes myself and others. It is the most boring way to consume life.Dim lights, dirty air, loud noises, face-to-face scheming between acquaintances... Mahjong, a form of entertainment, is a concentrated expression of the inferiority of Chinese people and a model to show the ugly side of Chinese people. Names such as "one", "white board", "two cakes", "zimo", "yaoji" and so on are full of obscene hints. From this, I infer that the person who invented mahjong: First, he has a very high IQ ; second, life is boring; third, he must be a very humorous hooligan.

I hate mahjong, but Ye Shengnan never tires of it. In the beginning, she invited people to play at home until midnight. On Saturdays, she could touch you and him all night long.I told Ye Shengnan that if she invited people to play mahjong at home again, I would throw the mahjong tiles downstairs.She was afraid that if I really did this, she would not be able to get down in front of Ma You, so she shifted the battlefield, stopped recruiting people to her home, and ran to other people's homes to make troubles. "Brother, don't be unhappy if I say something." Er Chuxi looked around my house, as if he wanted to buy my house, "Ye Shengnan can't go on like this, something will happen sooner or later, is she playing cards for money?"

He said playing for money is gambling. When I played at my house, I didn’t find them playing for money. Sometimes they took some dimes as bets, but that was not gambling, just like we win matches in poker. "That's not true. If she really gambled, she wouldn't have any money." Er Chuxi said: "This may be true. I know a few leprosy patients. They told me that there is no one who does not gamble while rubbing hemp. Like plain water, it has no taste at all.” Let him say this, and I am also a little worried. Ye Shengnan's addiction to rubbing hemp is too great, and it is really doubtful where the motivation comes from.If she really gambled, it would be considered income if she could win. It's a good thing to say, who will pay her if she loses?

"Talk to her well. Whether it's dancing or playing cards, it's all for entertainment. Don't be so obsessed. Especially playing cards, you must never gamble. It's a crime. If someone catches you, our family will be thrown away." My lord, there is no way to explain to our parents at that time. You also know that our parents are dignified people, and they have weight in our place, but we must not..." What he said annoyed me, and the more I talked, the more annoying I became, and I lashed out at him: "Stop talking, like an old woman, don't worry about this matter, you should figure out your own family first before talking about it!"

The second-year-old grinned: "Brother, what can my family not understand? If you are an ostrich, you will be fine. If you encounter trouble, you will stick your head in the sandy nest, and the sky will fall. It will only hit your ass. Forget it, I won't talk about it, so as not to upset you, if it wasn't for your own brother, you gave us money and I wouldn't have said anything. Linzi, baby, let's go home. " His family was indeed acting in a unified manner and obeying the command. As soon as he said to go home, Xiaolinzi and Baobao immediately got up and prepared to retreat.At this time, I heard someone knocking on the door loudly. I was annoyed, and this door knocked me even more. I couldn't help cursing: "Who? Robbery or search? If the door is smashed, you will pay for it." !” I was stunned when I opened the door, there was a policeman standing at the door, and behind the policeman was a defenseman wearing a red armband.These joint defense players are all borrowed from various units, and only those who perform poorly in the unit can go. The backbone units that perform well will never be sent to do this.The joint defense team had a face like a zombie, so I ignored him and asked the police, "What's the matter?"

The policeman was very polite and asked me with a smile on his face, "Excuse me, is this Ye Shengnan's home?" My heart skipped a beat, and I immediately thought that something happened to Ye Shengnan, otherwise the police would not have come to my house. I have no friendship with the police, including Er Niuzi from the Braised Rou family and the director of the Public Security Department. "Yes, this is her home. What's the matter with you?" "Then you are Yang Wei?" He said, looking at Er Chuxi standing behind me and the other two members of his family.

I said, "I'm Yang Wei, what's the matter with you? Do you want to come in or just say it at the door?" The policeman saw that I was being rude, so he stopped being polite to me, and told me straightforwardly: "Ye Shengnan has been detained by us for gathering a crowd to gamble. According to the "Public Security Management Punishment Regulations", she will be fined 500 yuan, and she has no money. , if you don’t pay the fine, you will be detained for 15 days, and I will notify your family members.” My mind was buzzing and I was stunned. I was ashamed and angry, and said to the police: "She has no money to gamble. Since she gambles, she will have money. I don't have the money to pay the fine for her. You can do whatever you want."

The police said, "The money she brought has been confiscated as gambling funds, and now she has to pay a fine. Since you have no money, forget it." Then he turned and left. Er Chuxi rushed out and stopped him: "Come back, if you have something to say, don't you just pay the fine? What are you in a hurry for?" The policeman looked at the second prospect, hesitated for a moment and finally stopped.Erqian greeted him and the defender: "Come into the house and say, don't block the corridor." The police obediently entered the house, and the joint defense team followed suit.Erqian handed them cigarettes, but the policeman said he didn't know how to smoke, and the defense team took one and lit it up to smoke.Er Chuxi said: "You first tell me what's going on?" Xiao Linzi is a stuffy elf, although he usually doesn't talk much, but his mind is spinning quickly. In the blink of an eye, he made two cups of tea and served them to the police and the joint defense team member.Then the policeman said: "We are from the Lunan Police Station. We received a report that someone was gambling in a residential building, so we went there. There were eight people at two tables, and the total gambling money was 60,000 yuan, which was enough. One of them was a woman. When she was interrogated, she didn't say anything at the beginning, but she was honest when we had to put her into administrative detention. We considered that they were not repeat offenders, so we decided to fine them a little money and let each of them write a guarantee letter. She said that she We had no money, so we asked her whether to pay the fine or go to the detention center to recuperate for 15 days, and she told us your home address and asked us to come to your home to collect the fine.” I said, "I don't have the money to pay her a fine, and even if I have the money, I won't pay her the expense. Just detain her for half a month and let her learn a lesson." The policeman stood up again, pretending to leave, and said, "That's fine..." Er Chuxi tugged me and said, "This is not the time to play your temper, get people out first, and talk about other things later." Xiao Linzi said from the side: "Can I release him after paying the fine?" The police said: "According to the "Public Security Management Punishment Regulations", you can not be detained if you pay a fine." Xiao Linzi said: "No problem, we will pay the fine immediately." He took money out of his pocket as he spoke. How can they pay for this kind of expenses? If they pay the fine for Ye Shengnan, my big brother will no longer be ashamed to be in the future. "No, I have money." I stopped Xiao Linzi and felt in my pocket. I guessed that the money was not enough, so I drew another wad of money from the drawer where I usually put living expenses, and I didn't care about counting it. No, take it to the outside room and hand it to the police.Seeing that I had taken out the money, Xiao Linzi stopped arguing with me to pay the bill. The police did not take my money: "The money has to be handed over directly to the police station, and besides, you have to go and get the person back." I had no choice but to put on my coat and go with him, Er Chuxi also followed me and said: "I will go too, if there is any trouble, we can discuss it with each other." When I went out, I turned around and told Xiao Linzi: "You wait at home , take care of the two children, don't leave if we don't come back!" We went to the Lunan Police Station together. In the courtyard of the police station, a group of people, both men and women, squatted together. Ye Shengnan also squatted with them, with her head buried in her trousers and her head in her hands, like a group of toads who had just landed. How embarrassing and embarrassing it must be.As soon as we came in, the people who were squatting turned their heads to look sideways. When Ye Shengnan saw that it was me and the second generation, she stood up, and a member of the defense team yelled at her: "Squat down, don't stand up!" Ye Shengnan seemed to have a backer, and said in a firm tone: "I squatted until my feet are numb, why can't I get up and move around? Didn't I just play two cards? It seems like I have committed a big crime." The defense team still wanted to yell at her, but Ye Shengnan ignored him and came over to me and Er Qixi and said, "You two are here? How did Er Qixi know?" She had no intention of repenting. I had a little pity for her when I saw her embarrassed appearance, but she acted indifferently. I got angry again and ignored her.Er Chuxi hurriedly explained: "I took the baby to play with the balls, and the police came. I was afraid that something else would happen here, so I followed. Are you okay? They didn't make things difficult for you, did they?" Ye Shengnan said: "You two have come, can you throw the two children away!" The second-year-old said: "It's okay, Xiao Linzi is watching at home." Ye Shengnan froze for a moment and sighed, "Xiao Linzi also knows? It's unlucky, just such a small thing can spread all over the world." Making a fool of herself in front of her sister-in-law made her feel a little embarrassed.I tensed up and walked into the house. She put on a flattering smile and followed me into the house, but the police blocked her: "You stay in the courtyard." "Just wait, what's the big deal." Ye Shengnan had no choice but to stay in the yard, but she didn't squat down and hold her head in that embarrassing posture. After entering the house, the policeman who brought us said to an older policeman, "Director, Ye Shengnan's family members are here." The director was busy dealing with another family member, and without looking back, he snorted and said, "Let him pay the fine first." A small director also knows how to play big cards and show off his cowhide. I have anger in my stomach, but I dare not show it. I have to bow my head under the low eaves.I've never been to a police station, so I can't figure out where to go, where to go, and who to turn to to pay the fine. When I was about to inquire, Er Chuxi stepped forward and slapped the head of the police station: "Big Li, I don't know anyone when I become the head of the police station." gone?" The director looked back and jumped up immediately as soon as he saw the double promise, as if there was a spring under his buttocks: "Oh, my Director Yang, what brought you here, sit down quickly." He shook and shook his second hand with his second hand. The second-year introduction: "This is my brother." Then the director turned his head and greeted me: "Sit down, sit down and talk if you have anything to do." The policeman who brought us saw that Er Chuxi was familiar with their director, so he quickly brought two chairs for Er Chuxi and me to sit on, and reminded their director: "They are Ye Shengnan's family members." The director was taken aback for a moment before asking: "Are you Ye Shengnan's family?" Er Chengxi smiled and said, "She is my sister-in-law." The director was a little embarrassed, scratching the back of his head: "This matter was done, and your sister-in-law was brought in. Her, why does she like to gamble?" She tried to excuse Ye Shengnan: "Sometimes when she's free, she likes to rub her hands twice, just for fun, we all know that." The director pushed the file on the table over and said seriously: "Director Yang, I am not exaggerating about this incident. People have reported them for a while. A few poker friends get together to play, and there is sometimes a boundary between real gambling and gambling." It’s really hard to distinguish. If we make a mistake, we will cause trouble for ourselves. Our place is not big, and we can’t tell who has contact with each other. It’s really difficult for us to explain when people come to us. So we specially The group of them repeatedly investigated and verified, and even sent people pretending to be gamblers to sneak in and lie there for a few days. It turned out that they were a fixed gambling den, and the dealer who provided the location took 20% from the winners. They also provide tea, drinks, and instant noodles to those who come to gamble. The gamblers are also relatively stable. Although sometimes you come and they don’t come, they are always these people. We have figured it out We only did it after the details, otherwise we wouldn’t dare to call the reporters from the TV station.” The second-year-old was shocked when he heard it: "What, you guys filmed TV?" The director nodded: "That's right, exposure through TV not only exposes the ugliness, but also can educate the masses." Look at me in the second year, spread your hands.I understand what he means, it's over, this time the matter has become a big mess, if my parents find out, they must be pissed off together. The director said again: "Director Yang, we are all acquaintances, and it is difficult for me to handle this matter. It would be easy to talk about it if she was alone, but..." The second-year-old patted him on the shoulder: "It's okay, it's business, who will pay the fine?" The director personally led us to the next room, and we handed over the money to a little girl in police uniform. The little girl wanted to issue a receipt for us, and Er Chuxi said, "Forget it, this is not an honorable thing. What receipt?" The little girl said: "That can't be done, it's a rule, we won't be able to tell if we don't issue a receipt." When he came out, the director said: "Ye Shengnan is really tyrannical, even stronger than us. No wonder, thanks to our suppression of the fire, we didn't make it difficult for her. If she was really handcuffed, I will see you I really wouldn't be able to step down in front of you. If I knew she was your sister-in-law, huh... I also blame her for being stubborn and not revealing her identity. If her ID card hadn't been found, she would have been detained administratively. She's still playing tricks on us right now." The second-year student glanced at me, and smiled awkwardly: "She is just such a person, and she is used to it by her family." I couldn't say anything, and the thought of Ye Shengnan's face appearing on the TV screen made me feel dizzy and dizzy.Outsiders scold us that this place is a place where the temples are small, the monsters are big, the pools are shallow, and there are many kings. When there is no accident, you can't feel it. If there is something wrong, it will become a household name and everyone will know it within a day. On the way home, Ye Shengnan and I didn't talk to each other. I rode my bicycle silently, and Ye Shengnan sat on the back seat of me and kept silent.In order to ease the atmosphere, he explained to us how he met the director: "Her niece is a worker in Xinhua Printing Factory. She wants to be transferred from the workshop to the office to type. He asked someone to find me and sent me two Zhonghua cigarettes and two bottles of Moutai. I didn’t want the cigarettes and alcohol. I found out that her niece has chronic bronchitis and is really not suitable for working in the workshop. So I called their factory manager and took care of the matter. Afterwards He invited me to dinner again to thank me, and I went, and it was considered a formal acquaintance." Ye Shengnan suddenly said: "I know there is a fart, you still have to pay the fine!" One sentence stunned Er Chuxi, the street lights were dim, and I also saw Er Chuxi staring at his eyes and swallowing.I know what it means to knock someone against the south wall with a single sentence, and I know what it looks like when someone hits the south wall with words. The second season took a breather and said: "Go back, let Xiao Linzi take the child home by himself, I will go back first." I know he is angry, Ye Shengnan's attitude is really unacceptable, think about Er Chuxi running with me to the police station in the middle of the night, think about Er Chuxi and his wife taking the initiative to pay the fine for her, even though I paid the fine in the end , but that favor can't be ignored, who will care about you if you are not a real brother?Seeing Ye Shengnan treat Er Chuxi like this, I couldn't bear it, so I said to Er Chuxi: "You go back first, I'll send Xiao Linzi and the baby off later." Er Chuxi said: "Don't send them off, just let them come back by themselves." After speaking, he twisted the handlebar and pedaled the car and sped away. I stopped the car and said to Ye Shengnan, "Get down!" She got out of the car obediently, and I rode away without saying a word, leaving her alone on the empty road.She neither yelled nor yelled, stood there for a while, and walked slowly towards the house. I sent Xiao Linzi and the baby back, but Ye Shengnan hadn't come back yet.I didn't bother to care about her, so I took off the clothes for Eggy and got under the covers.After falling asleep, I heard the sound of turning the door lock outside, and knew that Ye Shengnan had returned.After she came in, she stayed in the corridor. I listened carefully to the silence, so I didn't know what she was doing.Fortunately, she came back, and didn't stop running around because I left her halfway.Suddenly, there was the sound of her sobbing from the aisle, and it started to twitch, like the crying of a child who has been wronged.I still ignored her, and she cried louder and louder, and finally burst into tears.We live in a simple residential building built with prefabricated cement panels, and there is no sound insulation at all. The neighbors must have heard the cries in the middle of the night clearly.I had no choice but to get out of bed and go to the hallway. Ye Shengnan was lying on the dining table crying, her shoulders shrugged like cramps. "Why are you crying in the middle of the night? Who provoked you?" She ignored my persuasion and continued to cry.When you cry, you are justified. This is a sharp weapon for women to deal with people when they are wrong. Today I was determined to make her trick fail, so I said to her: "Okay, you have credit, don't cry, the people upstairs and downstairs are still I thought our family was dead." She choked up and said, "I feel bored and uncomfortable in my heart, and my life is uncomfortable, so leave me alone!" I said, "You can't make the whole building suffer with you, can you? If you don't sleep, others have to sleep." She said: "Go to sleep, I won't cry, I will sit for a while." I went back to the bedroom and lay down on the bed but couldn't fall asleep. Will the TV program that will be broadcast tomorrow really expose Ye Shengnan's gambling case?The answer is yes, not only will it be broadcast, but it will be broadcast as key news.The public security organs urgently need to use this kind of news to show the citizens their contributions, the government also needs this kind of news as a negative teaching material to educate the people, and the TV stations are more willing to use this kind of news to attract viewers.The next question is, will my parents not see this piece of news?The answer is no. After my parents retired, my desire to care about national affairs and small things around me continued unabated. I never missed TV programs, especially news programs.Even if there was some extremely accidental reason that they did not see this piece of news, the neighbors, relatives and friends would promptly and comprehensively convey the news involving his daughter-in-law's scandal to them.The next question is, how will my parents react when they find out about this?Angry is for sure, the question is to what extent can you be angry? Do you want to teach Ye Shengnan a lesson or give me a lesson?It is not impossible to get angry with Ye Shengnan directly, and it is even more unavoidable to get angry with me.None of this is important, the key is whether they will get angry or even... Ye Shengnan came in, probably my face was really gloomy, and in that state of thinking, my face couldn't be clear even if I wanted to, Ye Shengnan said a little timidly: "What should I do? Don't be angry, help me find a way." I know that she is also worried about tomorrow's TV show. If her glorious image is on TV, I can't imagine how she will face the leaders and colleagues of the unit, as well as her natal parents. "I was wrong, don't be angry, there is nothing I can do about it, I will change it in the future." Ye Shengnan is better than me in this, he can bend and stretch, unlike me, even if he did something wrong, he would rather be beaten than say that I was wrong.She acted pitifully, and melted the ice in my heart with her pitiful apology, and my mind immediately turned to thinking about how to help her, and also help myself overcome this difficulty. "I thought you were just playing mahjong for fun, why did you get into it? How long have you been betting?" I began to interrogate her, but my tone softened a lot. As the saying goes, if you are reasonable, you should not hit a smiling person, and if you are reasonable, you should not hit a crying person. Woman, she has already apologized, and it's not easy for me to get angry. She took off her clothes and got into the bed, as cold as a hibernating snake, snuggled into my arms and said: "I didn't want to gamble at first, but I just followed suit. There must be a bet in the game to be a little exciting." Moreover, all players who play mahjong have bets, so they gradually started to gamble from small to large, from small to large, without knowing it. In fact, I didn’t think it was gambling. If you want to make money, the more you win, the more you want to win more, as long as you get involved in gambling, you will have no way out." I asked her, "Did someone force you to gamble?" I thought of the underworld in movies and TV shows, forcing people to gamble, not letting you go without squeezing all your money, and even tricking you into borrowing money If you are in debt to gamble, you can only pay for your family's ruin and death. "Who can force me? I asked for it myself. I can't help it. Alas, I was unlucky and got shot. To be honest, this is the trend now. Leprosy is everywhere in the country. You haven't heard anyone say Well, 1.3 billion people 900 million gamble, and 400 million are dancing. Among the people I know, there are not many people who have never gambled, but they are not as addicted as I am, and they have not been caught. " Although she is justifying herself, what she said is not unreasonable. As far as the people I know, there are basically no people who don't rub, but they don't sleep like her, forgetting to eat and sleep, abandoning all serious things and getting caught. The police station just caught it. "Tell me, what should I do about this matter? I will be fined, and we admit it. But if it is broadcast on the TV station tomorrow, I really have only a dead end." I racked my brains to find a way to do it, but after much deliberation, I couldn't think of anyone who had something to do with the TV station. "Does it matter to you? If you want to run early tomorrow morning, it will be useless if you are later." She also began to think, frowned, and suddenly slapped me: "Yes, you forgot, braised pig's trotters!" I also thought of the stewed pig's trotters who once helped us buy a TV set. This guy has been working in the Propaganda Department. He set up our TV station here, and the TV station is under the control of the Propaganda Department. Maybe he can really help.Then I thought about that year because of the high price of the TV set he bought for us, we had an unpleasant quarrel with him. Although we didn't reveal the truth, let alone tear our faces, everyone knew it well. Since then, our friendship has grown. It's over, now that I have something to ask someone else, how can I be ashamed, and how can I speak?I expressed my doubts, and Ye Shengnan got up and said: "It's okay, we will split into two groups tomorrow, and I will go find the braised pig's trotters. At worst, I can say something nice. I think he will help if he has a way." Yes. You go to find the second-timer, he is a director anyway, and the people he knows are more useful than the people we know. Besides, you have to tell him, no matter what happens tonight, you can’t leave it to our parents Say." She regained her energy and arranged tomorrow's activities, like a commanding general. Looking at her performance at the moment, I can't believe it if I was killed. She was squatting on the ground at the police station just now. Holding his head in embarrassment.That's what annoys me about her, kind of like having atomic energy in her ass and going up with unbearable force.Obviously she committed a crime, but when she regained her strength, she seemed to be doing something for me.I really don't want to look for another prospect, even though he is my brother, it would be embarrassing to ask him for this matter.However, I have to look for him, and I have to look for him in order not to make my parents angry. The next day I asked for leave from class and ran to Er Chuxi’s office. As soon as Er Chuxi saw me, he knew what I was coming for, and told me right away that he had already approached the director of propaganda in the morning and told him about it. I understand people, and I just want to get this matter done properly so that you don’t embarrass your parents. He has already told the TV station that the news will be broadcast, but the names of specific people will not be involved. If there is any image of Ye Shengnan, it will also be deleted. . "How can the TV station know who Ye Shengnan is? I'm afraid no one will go and see for himself." Er Chuxi said: "It's okay, you will go over in a while and take a look, you should know Ye Shengnan, right?" I also told him not to tell this matter at home, he said: "You don't need to tell me, and I won't tell at home. Let my sister-in-law hate me again, I don't know how to do this kind of thing, don't worry, go to the TV station and watch it." I came out from Erqixi and ran towards the TV station in a hurry, but the old man watching the TV station wouldn’t let me in. I was entangled with the old man watching the door at the TV station, when I saw braised pig’s trotters and Ye Shengnan coming out, they were walking together While talking, Ye Shengnan looked excited and excited.I called them, and they walked over at a faster pace, and the braised pig's trotters shook my hand in a gentlemanly manner, and said, "It's just a little thing, let's wrap you up in a hurry, and I promise to let you go." No one can see Ye Shengnan's shadow, nor hear Ye Shengnan's name." Only then did I feel relieved, and told them again what I said in my second career, and the stewed pig's trotters said: "Let me tell you, why did the minister say hello early in the morning and didn't allow the name of the specific person to be reported, saying that it was all his own?" The people of the city belong to the internal contradictions of the people, and they are afraid of negative impacts. This is what happened. That’s better, I will do it with confidence, and you can go back to work.” Ye Shengnan and I said goodbye to him gratefully, and he said, "Yang Wei, let's have another beer sometime." I said it can be done anytime, you decide the time and place.Having said that, I have already made up my mind to treat him to a meal.The dark clouds and wind blowing away from the sky made me feel relaxed for a while, and I actually felt a little happy.There is no way, people have this kind of virtue, remember to eat but not to fight, just like some veteran cadres, the "Cultural Revolution" made them locked up in the cowshed for several years. Grateful, it seems that the organization has given him a lot of advantages.Alas, I hope that night at the police station can cure Ye Shengnan of her leprosy. If she continues to suffer from leprosy, we will really have a hard time getting through this day. Now that the matter is over, I said to Ye Shengnan: "I have to go back to class, how about you?" Ye Shengnan said: "Anyway, I've already asked for leave, why are you in a hurry to go to class? I'll discuss something with you." Her serious look told me that she had something new and important to announce to me, and I couldn't help feeling nervous, wondering what new tricks she was going to come up with. "Yang Wei, I want to do business." When she said this, she was pushing the car, she didn't look at me, her face was facing the road, but I knew that she didn't actually look at the road, and the business she said was not just about doing business. The business is so simple, if that's the case, she won't talk without looking at me. "What business do you do?" "Currently, prices are rising every day, but wages are not rising. Even if wages are raised, they can't keep up with the speed of price increases. Thanks to both of us working, we can live a decent life. If only one of us works, think about it, we can live Can I go down? So, I want to do some business and make some money." She talked about the truth for a while, but she didn't say what kind of business she was going to do, and she didn't say whether she was doing business as an amateur or completely resigned to become a second-hand dealer.I think that with her ability, she might not completely resign, and with our family's money, she can't be the boss. To do business is to be a second-hand dealer, just scrambling around. "What kind of business are you going to do? How do you do it?" I'm not interested in her rationale. Everyone knows that prices are rising, and wages are not keeping up. What I want to know is what she will do and how she will do it. "I'm going south to back up the car." I was stunned, she was really amazing, and she almost scared me: "What? You went to the south to back up the car? You can't get to work? Where did you get the money to buy? What kind of car? Don't tell me just kidding." She must have estimated my reaction, and also figured out a way to persuade me, but she still didn't answer my question directly, but threw out a fact that shocked me: "Our family's deposit is gone. I also owed others more than 10,000 yuan." I fainted, I really hated her, I wanted to hit her.The education I received at home since I was a child is: a man hitting a woman can only prove that the man is incompetent, no matter how much the woman is wrong, it is the man's fault if the man hits her.My father and mother have lived with me all their lives, and have never hit my mother. No matter how unreasonable my mother is or how angry she is, my father never hit her.Ever since I got married to Ye Shengnan, I have never thought of beating her. Men don't fight women, chickens don't fight dogs, and a man is worse than a chicken when beating a woman. This concept is deeply rooted in my heart.However, right now I really want to hit her. If it wasn't on the street, I might really not be able to resist hitting her. Although I wouldn't beat her like fighting with a man, I might be out of anger Slap her one or two slaps, maybe three slaps.However, I absolutely cannot hit her, because she is my wife, a woman, and she is on the street, but I can hit my bicycle. On the ground, innocent bicycles were distorted and fell apart under my torture... Passers-by thought I was mentally ill, and stopped to look at me from a distance, but they dared not come over. Ye Shengnan didn't expect me to be like this, she was also stupid, she stood aside and murmured uselessly: "Don't be anxious, don't be angry, don't fall into the car..." Later, I saw that I was a little out of control, endlessly It was only when she trampled on the bicycle that she panicked, and rushed over to hold me back: "Don't fall, hit me! Blame me, hit me!" I raised my hand to her, and seeing her tears streaming down my face, I couldn't hold it down, and my raised palm fell limply. That action must be very similar to that of a National People's Congress representative raising his hand to vote.她帮我扶起车子，自行车轮子已经卡在叉上不能转了，车把也弯到了一边。有行人靠近来做看客，我朝那几个行人怒吼：“滚！看什么？滚！”围过来的人乖乖地走了，我暗自为他们跟我自己庆幸，要是他们不滚，说不准我会做出让他们也让我后悔的事情来，我不能打老婆，可是我能打别人。 叶笙楠掏出手绢：“你的手都破了。”说着用她的手绢替我包扎。 我甩开她：“用不着，我死不了！” 叶笙楠不知道该怎么办，扎煞着两手围着我团团转。我觉得浑身发软，就蹲到地上点着了一支烟。叶笙楠也蹲到了我身边：“杨伟，你冷静冷静，事情已经这样了，我想的是怎么才能弥补过来。我知道很对不起你，对不起杨成龙，对不起咱们这个家。咱们攒那几个钱真不容易，眼看着杨成龙该上学了，用钱的时候还在后面，可是钱却让我给……”她哭了，是不出声的那种哭，泪如泉涌，嗓子里哽咽着，却不出声。这种哭最让人觉得悲伤，也最容易让人怜惜，我绝对不敢说叶笙楠这种哭是有意做出来的，她还没那么高的道行，可是后来事情的发展却让我不得不怀疑她当时是不是在用这种默默地哭泣来对付我、驯服我。 我冷静了下来，我想我不能因为损失了家里的储蓄就跟叶笙楠离婚，更不能因为她赌博把家里的储蓄搭了进去还欠了一屁股债就打她。如果那样我还能算是杨伟吗？我还能算是我爸的儿子吗？事情已经这样了，我只能接受现实，正面直对怎么样帮她把欠的钱还上的问题。 “你到底欠别人多少钱？”这是我目前最关心的问题。 “欠了有一万两千块。”叶笙楠说的声音很低，却很清楚。我倒吸了一口冷气，一万两千块，那会儿富人的社会标准就是万元户，我无聊的时候曾经计算过，按我跟叶笙楠两个人的敛财能力，要攒够一万块钱得整整十年。 “操，你这是要我的命啊！”我知道，安居乐业的好日子到头了，从今往后我就要背上沉重的债务负担，辛辛苦苦挣来的钱都得交到别人手里。 听到我骂粗话，叶笙楠知道我的火头已经过去了，就凑过来安慰我：“听着是不少，其实仔细算算也没那么多。”她掰着手指头给我算：“我从我家前前后后借了有三千块左右，这可以不还了。还有两千多块是在牌桌上借的，这种钱有一搭没一搭的，暂时拖拖也没关系。真正欠的有七八千块吧。” “你是母鸡不下蛋瞎咯咯，不管是谁的钱，只要是借的，都得还。你背着我从娘家借了那么多钱，你就不想想你娘家人怎么想？他们就没问问你借这么多钱干什么用？你娘家人就那么大方？平白无故三千块钱让你弄没了连个屁都不放？再说了，不管是在牌桌上还是在牌桌下，那都是借的，人家来要你就得给人家。” 叶笙楠说：“我娘家的钱是零零碎碎借的，我妈说了，能还就还，不能还就拉倒，别让我哥我弟弟知道就行。” 我哭笑不得：“你妈也真行，就你一个是亲生的是不是？” 嘴上这么说，我的心里终究轻松了一点，一下子就减轻了三千块钱的债务，放在谁身上也是偷着乐的事儿。可是一想到即便是她娘家的钱可以赖着不还，仍然还有七八千块的债务压在头上，我就觉得胸口像堵着一块石头，喘不上气来。 叶笙楠继续安慰我：“剩下的钱也有办法，你别着急。” “有什么办法？难道你真的要到南方倒汽车？钱呢？没钱谁能把汽车给你？你别说梦话了。” “真的，卤猪蹄在南方有这方面的朋友，鼓捣走私汽车的，卤猪蹄已经给他说好了，只要这边有客户，可以在这边交货，一手钱一手货。” “天下哪有这么便宜的事情，卤猪蹄是人家的爹还是人家的儿子？人家就那么放心把车交给他开回来？” “那倒也不是，人家自己有人专门送车，我代表卤猪蹄过去，在那边等着，这边办好了去个电话我再回来。” 卤猪蹄这小子是把她送给人家当人质，她却还梗着脖子往套里面钻。 “要是这边没办好呢？你就在那边永远不回来了？” “那不会，要是这边不成，再把车开回去，卤猪蹄把送车的费用出了，我就回来了。” 我断然地告诉叶笙楠：“这件事绝对不行，你少跟我商量，你一个女人家，跑去给人家当抵押品，这不是拿着羊肉喂狼吗？既然这么好的事，卤猪蹄为啥不让她自己的老婆去？” “人家是知道我欠了债要帮我，又不是骗着让我去。再说了，这边我也联系好了，我大哥他们单位想要几台进口好车，只要车送到就能付款。要是我去办，我哥可以开支票让我把款带上，只要车没问题，一手钱一手货，就地解决了。” 我是男人，我有我的自尊，我不能为了还债让我的老婆冒那个风险，尤其是跟卤猪蹄那家伙单独跑到南方去，孤男寡女跑到南方说是做生意谁知道干啥去了。再说，她叨叨的这一切我根本也听不明白，我相信一点，走私就是犯罪。我再次断然否定：“你绝对不能去，债我想办法还，南方你不准去。要是非去也可以，咱们先把手续办了。” “办什么手续？”我相信叶笙楠完全懂得我的意思，她这么问只是为了进一步证实我这话的意思，我毫不犹豫地告诉她：“离婚手续。” 我说出这么绝情的话，并不是在危难时刻要跟她分手，而是要挟她不准她去，表达我反对她跟卤猪蹄到南方倒汽车的坚强意志。她精灵透了，很明白我的意思，马上对我说：“你别说这绝情话嘛，我知道你是不愿意让我去，怕我出什么意外。有这么个机会我总得努力一下吧？嫁给你过好过坏不说，起码我不能让你帮我背一辈子债对不？这也是一次机会，说不准跑一趟不但把债还了，还能赚呢。” 想起她那种得根牛屎橛子不亲口尝尝是臭的不撒手的脾气，我觉得悬悬的，如果这件事情她认准了，靠几句话是断不了她的念头的，我决定端掉她的源头：“就怕钱没挣着人都赔进去了，我今天下午就去找卤猪蹄，他要做生意找别人去，要是你跟他去了，我让他后悔一辈子。” 这么一说她果然急了：“算了，算了，我不去还不行吗？人家好心好意想帮我们一把，你再把人家给损一顿，人家说我们不够意思倒不要紧，还觉得你这个人小心眼儿，不男人呢。算了，这话就当我没说，下午我打个电话回了他，你可别找事了。” 我暗想，她这话没准，我还得抽时间找找卤猪蹄，我家哪怕吃糠咽菜砸锅卖铁还账，也不跟他做生意。不把卤猪蹄那条线彻底断了，叶笙楠说不准啥时候脑筋短路就跟他跑了。 叶笙楠心疼地看着自行车：“好好个车子让你给毁了，你上班骑啥？先找个车子铺把车子修好吧。” 车子坏了我并不在乎，我是高级钳工，旧车子我都能变成新的，还怕这点损伤？扛到班里用不着我动手，我那些徒弟就给整旧如新了，修车铺的那点能水我还看不上呢。我扛起自行车，对叶笙楠说：“你上班去吧，我也回厂子去，晚上到我家吃饭的时候装像点，别露出马脚让我爸我妈看出来。” 叶笙楠乖乖地点头：“哦，你放心吧，先把车子修好。” 接下来的几天风平浪静，叶笙楠按时下班按时回家，看样子麻疯病真的治好了。我暗叫侥幸，只要能治好她的病，输的钱欠的账就当是医药费吧。我到工会主席那儿接了一份培训钳工的活儿，每个月能增加一百来块钱的收入。过去工会主席找过我，我没答应，如今的青年人没几个愿意当工人的，即便是当了工人也就是为了混个工资，谁还有心认真学技术？给他们上课比干活还累。再说了，我上班太忙，检修、技改、带徒弟……下了班倒在沙发上动都不想动，哪里还有精神头受那帮本身就不爱学习的小青年折磨。如今我得还账，挣个辛苦钱，虽然不多，可终究比没有强。我还想到，过去有个姓张的包工头多次请我帮他到工地上干水电安装的活儿，许诺给我开一份工资，我一直没答应。单位不准搞第二职业，我到他那儿去跟给本单位的工会干两回事儿，要是单位上知道了也得找我的麻烦。另外，我心里明白包工头并不仅仅是让我帮忙干工程，他还想借用我和我们家方方面面的关系办事方便一些，我怕招惹这些事儿，就一直没有答应，如今逼到这份上了，我还真得到他那儿再兼一份工了。 包工头老张过去是进城换大米、倒旧衣裳的农民，我们家那个时候经常用旧衣裳换他的大米清油，时间一长就认识了。我曾经到他的农村家里吃过羊肉，喝过青稞酒，他有时候到城里来也到我们家喝杯茶混顿饭，勉强算得上我的朋友。我一给他提利用业余时间兼份工的事情，他非常痛快，马上答应我每个月给我开三百块，这比我爸和叶笙楠他爸这些革命干部的离休工资还高。我的任务就是每天抽时间到工地上走走，发现偷工减料、质量不过关的地方随时纠正。碰上施工中有技术难题了帮着参谋参谋。人家绝口不提帮他办外交的事儿，我松了一口气，我最怕的就是他让我替他跑市委市政府的那些单位或者部门。我们家两代人都在这里工作，亲朋好友同学哥们到处都是，如果真的替他办那些招标投标、工程监督、交工验收、结算付款等等事儿，倒也可能打开方便之门，可是求了人家人家心里都明白，我一个国营企业的高级技工替包工头打前站为了什么？人家嘴上不说，我自己个儿就觉得没了骨头。 这天我上完课又到包工头的施工现场转了转，没发现什么问题才回家，到家已经十二点多了。家里黑洞洞的，我以为叶笙楠跟蛋蛋都睡了，怕吵醒他们，蹑手蹑脚地进了屋，却听不见人气儿。我肚子饿了，想找点东西吃，打开灯却见床上的铺盖整整齐齐，哪里有叶笙楠的踪影。我急忙到蛋蛋的房间，蛋蛋也不在。 如果真的出了什么事儿，家里也不至于不想办法告诉我一声。我又回到我们的卧室，在床头柜的床头灯下面压着一张纸条，我打开一看就被气得热血沸腾了。纸条是叶笙楠写的：“杨伟，我走了，到南方做那笔生意去。不管是你骂我也好，打我也好，或者真的要跟我离婚也好，我都得去试一试，我不能眼看着你因为我的错误而背上沉重的负担。我走了，你等着我的好消息吧，等我回来了再接受你的处理。我已经给咱妈说好了，在我出差期间蛋蛋就留在她那儿，你放心好了。你不要告诉他们我干吗去了，就说我出差了——又及” 她这是肆无忌惮，为所欲为，拿我的话当狗屁，拿我的尊严当鞋底子，这一回，我绝对不能轻饶了她。我立刻下楼去找卤猪蹄，下了楼才想起来我根本不知道卤猪蹄住在哪里，只好又返回家里。我估计她还没有出发，还没有离开这里。因为，出那么远的门，做那么大的事，她无论如何得准备准备，我这几天并没有发现她有什么异常。我有些恼恨自己，本来计划着要去找一趟卤猪蹄，忙着找活挣钱，就把找他的事儿给拖下来了，如果我事先警告过他，叶笙楠就算怎么求他他也不敢带叶笙楠到南方倒汽车去。不过也不一定，说不准卤猪蹄这小子压根就没安好心，对叶笙楠他是贼心不死，我说了他也会照样带着叶笙楠跑，这个机会确实太难得了。晚上我一个人睡在床上翻来覆去彻夜难眠，凄凉、愤怒、懊丧、焦急……种种情绪把我的大脑细胞刺激得格外活跃，我的脑袋变成了蚂蚁窝，各种想法犹如忙碌勤奋的蚂蚁，出来进去搅扰得我整整烦躁了一夜。 第二天一大早，我就跑到了卤猪蹄的单位，跟他一个办公室的人告诉我，卤猪蹄他姥姥病了，他回老家了。我断定这小子给单位撒谎，我说：“他姥姥没病，死了。”那人惊讶地问：“死了？他怎么没说？他只说他姥姥病了。”我说：“他姥姥死了，他奶奶也死了，他们全家都他妈死了，你没听他说？”那人睁大了眼睛愣愣地瞅着我。我扔下他朝外走，脑子里只剩下一个念头：离婚，这样的女人我确实受够了，不休了她我就得自己把自己给休了。出了宣传部大楼，我又想起了叶笙楠她大哥，她曾经说过她大哥的单位答应要她倒来的走私车，我就又赶到了她大哥的单位。 叶笙楠她大哥比我年龄大得多，他们家的兄妹之间不像我们家联系得那么密切，相互之间各管各的事儿，都特有自立精神，不知道这是她爸她妈教育上的成功还是失败。兄弟姐妹偶然在家里遇上了也不过就是说说最近怎么样、最近干啥呢这种清汤淡水的话儿。她大哥跟我们年龄差别大，有种比我们大一辈的感觉，平时我们接触得更少，见了面也就是打个招呼，跟平常同志差不多。他在市政府办的集体企业当总经理，偶尔回家的时候也不过就是坐个破客货车，没有总经理的派头和架势，估计企业效益不怎么样。我这是头一次到他的单位来，他的单位在一个大院子里，院墙挺高，像个土地主的庄园，里面有两幢三层小楼，从院门到楼前面都铺上了水泥，光秃秃的像个操场。我打听到他的办公室就直接闯了进去，她大哥的办公室倒挺像个样儿，有写字台沙发茶几，还有一台彩电。我想不明白彩电摆到办公室干吗，谁上班时间还能看电视？要是我就把电视机搬回家里去看，省得自己花钱买彩电。 他哥正跟几个人在办公室里说不上是聊天还是开会，弄得满屋子乌烟瘴气。见到我他哥有些惊讶，问我：“你怎么来了？有事呀？进来坐下说。” 我肚子里有气鼓着，说实话，这会儿别说是她哥，就是我们厂长、市长、我老丈人老丈母娘惹着我我也敢让他下不来台。 我说：“我找你有点急事。” 他起身跟其他几个人介绍我：“这是我妹夫杨伟，原来咱们市杨市长的大儿子。” 那几个人都挺客气地跟我握手，我也只好跟他们一一握手，其中一个白头发半大老头还握着我的手打听我爸：“杨市长身体还好吧？我可是他的老下级了，回家替我问个好，就说洪八级念着他呢。”我也不清楚洪八级是什么人，不知道他跟我爸有什么交情，这种时候也没心情打听，含含糊糊地应付了几句拉倒。 屋里的人纷纷告辞，叶笙楠他大哥也不送送人家，大咧咧地坐回他的椅子扔给我一支烟问：“啥事？是不是笙楠卖车的事儿？” 我说：“这件事你知道？” 他说：“前段时间她给我打了个电话，说你们欠了点账，我以为她要从我这儿拿钱，问她要多少，她说不是问我借钱，你找了个生意，从南方倒来走私车问我有没有办法帮着销。我听说是你的事儿就答应了，市政府正想着弄几台高档车，要通过我们这儿走账，这也是个机会，我就答应她了。你放心好了，只要车一到，不是拼装车，我马上付款。没送到地方路上出了问题我可不负责。” 我问他：“叶笙楠昨天就走了，走的时候没给你打招呼？” 他愣了：“她走了？她去干什么？不是你联系的吗？你不去怎么让她一个女的去了？” 看来他也不知道叶笙楠私自跑去倒车的事儿，而且叶笙楠把这件事情推到了我头上，如果我对他解释这件事情又得从底上兜起，把来龙去脉说清楚非得小半天不可，我哪里有心情跟他汇报工作，既然他不知道叶笙楠目前的下落，我跟他啰嗦也没啥意思，就说：“不是我让她去的，倒车的生意也不是我联系的，这里面到底怎么回事等她回来你问她吧。”撂下这句话我转身就走了，他追了出来叫我我也没理睬。 晚上回家混饭吃的时候我妈问我：“叶笙楠干啥去了？匆匆忙忙像着火了似的，我问她干啥去，她说出差，出什么差？到什么地方出差？” 我心里正恼火这件事情，我妈这么一问我就忍不住说：“出个屁差，谁用得着她出差？人家到南方做买卖去了。” 我妈说：“大蛋，我告诉你，你家那个媳妇你可得把握好，最近我听了不少话，那可不是个省油的灯，前两年整天黏在舞厅里，最近又整天黏在麻将桌上，是不是还让人家派出所抓了？差点上电视亮相？” 我瞪了二出息一眼，我妈说：“你瞪人家干啥？二出息没给我们说，就你们那点事儿，我跟你爸早上到外面转一圈就都知道了。这事儿把你爸气得够呛，她是儿媳妇，你爸也不好说，当面教子，背后教妻，该说的你也得说，别让她在外面疯张倒势得丢人败兴。” 我爸这时候问我：“她到南方做啥生意去了？一个婆娘家跑到南方做啥生意？你咋就同意她去了呢？” 我爸是个心宽的人，从来不干预我们的事情，有时候问问，也不过是聊天的意思，从来没有像今天这样郑重其事半审问半训斥地对着我来。我们已经是过四十的人了，还让父母替我们操心，我愧疚，对叶笙楠更生气，既然事情追问到这儿了，我索性把事情的来龙去脉给我爸我妈彻底汇报了一遍。我妈一下子就火了：“这真是无法无天了，跟上个人说跑就跑了，这样的女人不能留！” 我正想获得他们的支持，赶忙说：“我已经定主意了，她一回来就跟她离。” 我爸哼了一声说：“胡毬扯啥呢？你当是在商店里买货呢，合适了就要，不合适了就退？两口子有啥事说啥事，动不动就离，就那么个毬本事？”又对我妈说：“你少管人家的事情，啥事情你一掺进去就复杂了，就会火上浇油。” 我妈说：“我跟了你一辈子，你想一想，我啥时候做过一件让你丢脸的事情？我要是像你大儿媳妇这样胡作非为你还不早就跟我散伙了。我掺和啥了？按你的说法，她叶笙楠跟上个男人跑了，我儿子就这样窝窝囊囊屁也不放一个当缩头乌龟？” 我爸也火了：“你越说越没名堂了，人家说得清清楚楚是做生意去了，你偏说人家跟上男人跑了，要是人家跟上男人跑了还用得着你儿子离婚？现在的问题是她不应该做那种生意，更不应该在大蛋不同意的情况下一意孤行，跟男人跑不跑你少给人家下结论！” 我还没怎么着，他们老两口倒闹了起来，二出息连忙做和事老：“爸，妈，你们这是何苦来呢？不就那么点事吗，叶笙楠想挣钱，还不是为了家里，不管她的具体做法对不对，目的跟出发点还是好的。人家之所以偷偷跑了，不就因为我哥不同意人家才跑的吗？我哥要是同意人家还用得着偷偷跑吗？你们都别生气了，等叶笙楠回来了，他们家的事情他们自己做主，该好该离是他们自己的事情，人家要好你们让离也离不了，人家要离你们也挡不住。”
