But the man turned his head directly and denied while walking out, "No, no, you recognized the wrong person."
Xiaomeng wanted to chase her again, but she had already opened the door and went out, got into the crowd and disappeared.
Xiao Meng couldn't help but sigh as he watched her disappear into the sea of people.
She and Xiang Xiu haven't seen each other for many years. The last time I heard from her was when she was kicked out of the house by her stepmother Wang Yun after her affair with Wang Tianlai spread, and she took the train south to explore the world by herself.
In the next few years, Xiang Xiuer just disappeared from the world. She never returned to Ivory Mountain, and people no longer heard from her.
But he didn't expect that today, she would bump into her here.
Although Xiangxiu denied it, Xiao Meng was sure it was her.
She really couldn't imagine what Xiangxiu had suffered in the past few years, and she was so damaged that she was like this. It was really sad and pitiful.
In fact, if she had been more reserved and not interacted with Li Daguo, at least she would still be the daughter-in-law of the Wang family now. The Wang family's billions of assets ensure that she can live comfortably. Why should I apply to be a waiter now that I am so mature?
…
Xiao Meng then told Xiang Nan the news.
After Xiang Nan heard this, he felt a little sad. He didn't expect that the village beauty of Ivory Mountain would be reduced to this state. It was really touching.
But having said that, there is no way for good or bad luck to come, it is all brought about by oneself.
If Xiangxiu had lived a good life with Wang Musheng after getting married and not messed around with Li Daguo, how could she have fallen to this point.
What if she repented after divorcing Wang Musheng. With her beauty, it would not be difficult to find someone to take her over. At that time, it will be impossible to be rich and powerful, but you can still live a smooth life.
However, she got involved with Wang Tianlai again. As a result, everything was lost, and even her father was implicated by her. What a pitiful person, there must be something hateful about him.
Now that she has fallen to this point, Wang Changgui went out to work and hasn't returned to Ivory Mountain for several years. Now he doesn't even know whether he will live or die. This father and daughter really have sympathy for each other.
"Yongqiang, do you think we should look for her?" Mother Xiaomeng said with a heart attack.
She felt that Xiangxiu was also quite pitiful. Since we are from the same village and grew up together, and it is so difficult to see her, we should reach out and give her a hand.
"Forget it. She doesn't even want to admit that she is Xiangxiu. Obviously she doesn't want to accept our help." Xiang Nan waved his hands and said, "Besides, how can we help her? Ask her to be our waiter? Or? What about giving her a sum of money? It’s not appropriate, so let’s forget it.”
If you are an ordinary villager, it's okay to be invited to work. But Xiangxiu's identity was too embarrassing. Not only was she their classmate and friend, but she even went on a blind date with Xiang Nan at one point, so it was hard to treat her like an ordinary fellow villager.
Treating her badly is like adding insult to injury; treating her too well is like having another agenda. Proportion is difficult to grasp.
Furthermore, who knows what Xiangxiu has experienced and what changes she has undergone in the past few years. It would be better if she got better and corrected all her previous problems. If she catches a new disease, the restaurants involved will be troubled.
So Xiang Nan doesn't advocate helping her. She had done this all by herself, and he really couldn't afford to pay for her.
Xiaomeng thought for a while, nodded, and stopped mentioning the matter.
…
Xiaomeng's restaurant is doing well and making a lot of money every day. Xiang Nan has also made a lot of money, and the popularity of IP has gradually increased in the past two years.
Xiang Nan successively sold the film and television adaptation rights, comic adaptation rights, audio adaptation rights, game adaptation rights, etc. of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", and made a lot of money by taking advantage of the IP boom.
…
Two years later, the Ivory Mountain Restaurant became even more prosperous and very popular with customers. There were countless people queuing up every day.
At the busiest time, you have to wait an hour or two for a seat.
After thinking about it, Xiao Meng wanted to open a new branch to entertain more customers. After she discussed it with Xiang Nan, Xiang Nan was naturally willing to accept it.
However, he also reminded Xiao Meng not to let himself get too tired. After all, you can’t make enough money, but your body is yours.
At this moment, news also came from Ivory Mountain Village.
Changgui, who had been missing for several years, finally came back, but he was completely different.
It turned out that he went to the city to work, first in construction. After working for only two years, my body was exhausted and I encountered several wage arrears. I was tired and suffered a lot, and I didn’t make any money.
After that, I couldn’t do heavy work anymore. He acts as a security guard, guarding the gate. He also worked as a courier, worked in sales, and ran a street stall... He had done at least half of the three hundred and sixty lines.
However, after so many years of hard work, I didn’t make much money. On the contrary, my body is getting worse day by day. Since half a year ago, I have been coughing non-stop, even though I quit smoking.
Hou Wei'er couldn't hold on anymore, so he went to the hospital for a check-up and found out that he had advanced lung cancer and that he would be alive in a few days.
Changgui didn't want to die outside, so he returned to Ivory Mountain Village.
When the old and young men in the village heard that he had this disease, some were distressed and some were gloating about his misfortune.
Liu Neng felt very distressed and even gave him five thousand yuan to buy some supplements and take good care of his body.
Zhao Si felt that Changgui was to blame.
The head of the water conservancy station did a good job back then, but he had to get involved with that Su Yuhong. As a result, his reputation was ruined, his job was lost, and his wife was gone. What could he hope for?
…
Changgui died shortly after returning to the village.
Because Xiangxiu didn't come back, the young and old men in the village couldn't contact her, so the village committee took the lead in organizing the funeral for Changgui.
On the day of the funeral, although there was no notice, Xie Dajiao, Wang Dana, Wang Yun, Qi Santai, Su Yuhong and others all arrived.
After death, the debts are gone, and all the previous grudges and grudges are buried in the ground, leaving only a sigh.
…
Five years later, Xie Guangkun also died. The cause of death was cerebral hemorrhage.
After entering the city, he opened a mountain goods store and no longer had to run around as before. Coupled with eating well and living well, overnutrition leads to high blood pressure.
That night when I fell asleep, I felt numbness in my hands and feet, so I quickly called Zhao Jinfeng. By the time Zhao Jinfeng frantically called 120 and called an ambulance to take him to the hospital, it was already too late and he was already unconscious.
After receiving the news, Xiang Nan and Xiao Meng rushed back by plane with Xie Wangsun.
I saw him for the last time in the hospital.
"You are my... eldest granddaughter, I can see... a real person~" Xie Guangkun took Xie Wangsun's hand and said.
Over the years, he has only seen his granddaughter in photos and WeChat videos. Now, before he died, he saw the real person.
After not seeing each other for more than ten years, his granddaughter has grown so big that she looks taller than him. He also looks quite handsome, with eyes and nose like his father, and his forehead and mouth like his mother.
"Call grandpa and listen~" he requested.
"Grandpa~" Xie Wangsun shouted sensibly.
"Hey." Xie Guangkun grinned. After hearing this, grandpa, he was willing to die.
"Yongqiang, you kid... is so cruel. After all these years... if you say you won't come back... you really won't come back." Xie Guangkun looked at Xiang Nan again.
Xiang Nan responded in silence. To be honest, he did treat Xie Guangkun a little too much.
But having said that, if he didn't do this, Xie Guangkun's character would definitely make the family uneasy.
So he had no choice but to be cruel in order to complete the task.
