When Tang Jiancheng returned home, he saw Liu Fangfang and several children also woken up by the noise outside. They were all lying by the window, listening to the sounds outside.
"What's going on outside?" Liu Fangfang asked.
Tang Jiancheng said: "Tang Deyi's wife was caught stealing from a man."
"ah?"
Liu Fangfang looked shocked, "Doesn't Yang Xiuli look like this kind of person? She usually wears nice clothes and likes to put on rouge and gouache. Why is she stealing from a man?"
Tang Jiancheng said: "Knowing people but not knowing their hearts, who knows what she usually thinks? Okay, don't worry about other people's affairs, go to sleep quickly, it's cold weather, everyone stays by the window, don't be afraid of catching a cold Already?"
"Go to sleep!"
Tang Jiancheng scolded, and all the children ran to sleep obediently, and Liu Fangfang also lay down obediently.
"Dad, the food is hot in the pot, would you like to bring it out for you?" the eldest sister asked obediently.
"No, sleep with you."
Tang Jiancheng walked to the kitchen by himself, but saw Xiaoqi suddenly running to him and tugging on his trousers.
Tang Jiancheng lowered his head, and Xiao Qi asked softly: "Dad, what is a man? Is it delicious?"
Well?
Tang Jiancheng was stunned.
Xiaoqi asked again: "If it's not delicious, why did Aunt Xiuli steal it? She is so naughty!"
Tang Jiancheng was confused by these words. He didn't know how to answer, so he could only say with a straight face: "Go to sleep! Don't ask children about adult matters!"
But she couldn't help but think evilly in her heart: Only Yang Xiuli knows best whether that man is delicious or not.
Tang Jiancheng was indeed hungry. He went to the kitchen, brought out the food, and started eating.
After eating, I washed up, sat by the fire for a while, and then went to bed.
Liu Fangfang was not asleep yet and was still struggling with the previous problem. She asked softly: "Jian Jiancheng, I still can't figure it out. How could Yang Xiuli steal a man?"
Tang Jian originally wanted to say something to her, but Xiao Qi's words suddenly flashed through his mind, and he smiled evilly: "I guess he thinks men are delicious."
"What?"
Liu Fangfang didn't understand it at first, but after thinking about it carefully, she couldn't help but lightly punched Tang Jiancheng's arm, "Why are you thinking so evil all day long?"
Tang Jiancheng smiled and said, "This is what your seventh sister said."
"Ah? Did she say this?" Liu Fangfang was surprised.
Tang Jiancheng told Liu Fangfang what had just happened, and Liu Fangfang couldn't help laughing and scolding: "Tell me, what the hell are these little guys thinking about in their minds all day long?"
"Okay, go to sleep. It's been a tiring day and there are big things to do tomorrow." Tang Jiancheng lay down.
"Big deal? What big deal?"
"We'll know in two days."
Then, both of them closed their eyes and fell asleep.
It was still very lively outside. It was not until the police came and arrested Yang Xiuli, Liu Guang, Liu Qiang, Liu Cai and others that things gradually became quiet.
The next day, just after dawn, Tang Jiancheng woke up on time.
The eldest sister and the second sister were actually earlier than him. By the time he got up to wash up, they had already been working in the kitchen for a long time and made breakfast.
Tang Jiancheng felt better and better about having a daughter.
So full of happiness!
After breakfast, Tang Jiancheng told Liu Fangfang and the children, "I may have to go to the county today, and I won't come back until evening." Then he took some money and went out.
He first went to the state-owned hotel and learned that Huang Tianyue was still in the county, so he went to the passenger terminal in Sanchong Township.
It is said to be a passenger station, but in fact there is only one shuttle bus. It leaves Sanchong Township at 8 am and goes to the county, and then returns from the county at 2 pm. If you miss it, you have to walk back.
Sanchong Township is more than 60 miles away from the county seat. It takes at least more than seven hours to walk!
This is a relatively fast journey. If it were a little slower, it would take a whole day!
Therefore, unless there is something very important, the people of Sanchong Township will not go to the county.
Therefore, when Tang Jiancheng boarded the shuttle bus, he was the only one in the car. The conductor glanced at him and continued to lean on the back of the seat with his arms folded and his eyes closed to meditate.
It wasn't until almost eight o'clock that a few people came one after another, all dressed like cadres.
"Ticket, eight cents!"
The conductor started selling tickets with a very cold attitude.
Tang Jiancheng didn't care. He took out 80 cents and handed it to the conductor, then turned to look out the window.
Soon, the car started.
The whole journey is on a dirt road. Maybe it will slip in the rain, so a layer of gravel is paved on the road, but it is obviously of little use. It is still full of potholes. There is snow on both sides of the road. Fortunately, the snow on the road has melted. It became a puddle of yellow mud.
The car drove very slowly, bumpy and shaky, almost shaking Tang Jiancheng's bones to pieces.
Finally, after shaking for more than three hours, we arrived at the county seat.
At this time, Shunbei County was very small and shabby, but relatively clean and tidy.
There are not many cars or pedestrians on the street, but there are already small vendors setting up stalls on the street, including those who repair shoes, repair bicycles, sell steamed buns, and most of all, those selling vegetables.
"Chicken and duck feathers in exchange for candy!"
There are also people who go around the streets collecting chicken and duck feathers.
Tang Jiancheng was walking all the way to the People's Hospital. He met a fruit seller on the road, bought a few kilograms of apples, and carried them to the hospital.
When we found Huang Tianyue, he was sleeping on the hospital bed.
"Tian Yue."
Tang Jiancheng shouted.
Huang Tianyue opened his eyes in a daze, and was stunned for a moment when he saw it was Tang Jiancheng, "Brother Jiancheng, why are you here?"
"How is the child's illness?" Tang Jiancheng put the apple next to the bed and asked.
Huang Tianyue sighed: "I had a bad stomach after eating, and then I caught the wind and cold. I have been having a high fever. I am getting a little better today."
"It would be nice to be better."
Tang Jiancheng glanced at the child lying on the hospital bed. He was only a little over four years old. He was so sick that his eyes were sunk in. He looked a little pitiful, but he was sleeping soundly at the moment.
"Brother Jiancheng, are you here specifically to see my child?" Huang Tianyue was very moved.
In the past two days, he was exhausted. He was mainly worried about his child's condition. Suddenly seeing an acquaintance coming, he felt really mixed emotions.
"Don't worry, the child's illness comes and goes quickly. Now that he is getting better, he will be completely fine soon." Tang Jiancheng comforted him.
"I hope so." Huang Tianyue sighed.
Tang Jiancheng said: "I caught a few bison yesterday. I originally wanted to ask you to deal with it. I heard that your child was sick and was hospitalized in the county, so I came over to take a look. Of course, I am not here specifically for this." As it happens, I’m mainly here to buy fishing nets.”
"Buying a fishing net?"
Huang Tianyue was stunned, "Are you going to go fishing? Where are you going to go fishing in this ice and snow?"
"I have a good place, but when the time comes to catch fish, I still need your help to sell them." Tang Jiancheng said with a smile.
"That's no problem. I'll help you sell as much as you have." Huang Tianyue said.
"Hahaha, with your words, I feel relieved." Tang Jiancheng said with a smile, "Okay, I can't stay longer and I have to catch the afternoon bus, so I'll leave first."
"Okay, let's meet up for a drink when we get back."
"no problem."
Huang Tianyue sent Tang Jiancheng out of the hospital.
