Chapter 31 Chapter 30 A Wonderful World

August 22nd. Let's talk about what happened on August 22 last year.On that day, a coal mine in Fenshui collapsed, killing all 33 miners. Among them was a young miner who went down the well on the fifth day of his wedding and never returned.The new daughter-in-law put on a black veil right after she took off her wedding veil, crying so hard that she was dying. The boss summoned the family members of the deceased and negotiated overnight.He promised a pension to each bereaved household.In fact, it was not a negotiation, but a coercion—the boss waited in the crude conference room, and only called in six family members at a time.Twenty or thirty thugs, all in black uniforms, surrounded the conference room with three floors inside and three floors outside.

The boss said: "You have all seen it, my eyes are red. However, since the tragedy happened, we have to resolve it peacefully, and everyone will be better off. Whoever doesn't want money, just doesn't want life, choose for yourself. You have all seen it , my eyes are red." The money he pays for each human life is equivalent to the money of a pet dog. The new daughter-in-law didn't want to accept the money, she just wanted to get justice for her man.However, other family members signed the contract, and she was alone and helpless, so she could only submit.She knew that if she resisted, she would never be able to get out of this meeting room.

After returning home from the coal mine, the new daughter-in-law took out the bundle of dirty banknotes, tearing them up and crying. The next day, she decided to go to Fenshui to file a complaint. As soon as she walked out of the house, she saw seven or eight thugs in black uniforms, each of whom was walking around the village with an iron rod in their hands.She can only go back. For three consecutive days, the thugs did not withdraw. On the fourth day, the new daughter-in-law suddenly heard the news that the coal mine owner fell ill and died. Is this retribution? The new daughter-in-law is not reconciled, but what else?

A few months later, the pain in the heart of the new daughter-in-law was almost healed. On this day, she went to the market to sell eggs, and met a man in his forties. He squatted in front of her stall and said softly: " I want to investigate the mine accident with you, can I?" He said "investigate", not "inquire", and the new daughter-in-law immediately felt that the identity of the other party was very mysterious. She sighed and said, "Oh, it's all over..." The other party said: "Thirty-three souls have not been cleared, how can they pass?"

The new daughter-in-law asked: "What kind of official are you...?" The other party said, "I am Master Bao's subordinate." The new daughter-in-law was stunned for a moment: "Master Bao? Which Master Bao?" The other party took out his notebook and pen and said, "Just tell me what you know." For some reason, the new daughter-in-law trusted this man very much, so she told him about the mine disaster and the final parting between her and her man, tears fell down her cheeks. After finishing the record, the man said, "Don't worry, good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be rewarded with evil. We will make your man close his eyes." After speaking, he stood up and left, and quickly disappeared in the market place. in the crowd.

The new daughter-in-law looked up at the blue sky, and felt like a person who had been suffocating for many days was suddenly able to breathe. On this day, a scavenger walked in from a police station in a certain street. A policeman poked his head out from the duty room and shouted, "Get out! Did you come to this place!" The trash picker hurriedly said, "I'll do the work!" The policeman said, "What are you doing?" The trash picker said: "I picked up this plastic bag, and I don't know who to give it to..." He carried a woven bag on his left shoulder, and a plastic bag in his right hand, which was dirty and covered with rotten leaves. .

The policeman came out to have a look and asked, "What's in it?" The trash picker whispered, "It's all money!" The policeman was a little surprised. He opened the plastic bag and looked at it, and his attitude softened: "Come with me." Walking into the duty room, the police let the trash picker sit down. He poured out the money, counted it three times, and then started to register: "What's your name?" The trash picker said: "My surname is Duanmu, you can call me Duanmu." The policeman said, "Have you brought your ID card?"

Master Duanmu said, "No. I walk around the street every day, afraid of losing it." The police said: "Then leave a contact number!" Master Duanmu rubbed his hands in embarrassment, and said: "I don't have a phone... Comrade, I don't want to praise, and I don't want to thank you!" The policeman laughed and said, "This is procedure." When Master Duanmu was leaving, the policeman took out a bottle of mineral water from under the table, chased up and handed it to him: "Master Duanmu, you are a good man, I thank you on behalf of the owner."

Master Duanmu smiled and said, "It should." Walking out of the police station, he opened the mineral water, drank it in one gulp, and then put the empty bottle into a woven bag. Xu Youyou is not dead. When she woke up, she found herself lying on a very narrow bed.The walls are all white, and there is a pungent Lysol smell. A doctor in his fifties was standing by her bed and heaved a long sigh of relief when he saw that she had woken up. Xu Youyou looked at the doctor in a daze, and asked softly, "Where is this?" The doctor said, "Son, this is a hospital."

Xu Youyou said: "I want... to go home." The doctor smiled and said, "You can rest at ease first, tell us your home phone number later, and we will contact your family to pick you up." Xu Youyou asked weakly: "I, how did I survive?" The doctor said: "Two passers-by saved you. My child, you may have encountered setbacks, but you think it's a big thing, and you'll see it when you grow up to my age, but it's as big as a stone, so you must look away. " Xu Youyou frowned: "Two passers-by? What do they look like?" The doctor said, "One is in white and the other is in black. They brought you in and left."

It's them. Xu Youyou's head was dizzy, as if it was full of paste.She didn't want to think about why those two terrifying people rescued her. Now she just wanted to close her eyes and stop her brain from spinning. She is so tired.
