The atmosphere in the whole family also rose again at this time. Cheng Xiujuan hugged Zhang Baixue's head and dared not let go. That night, Cheng Xiujuan and Zhang Baixue also hugged each other and slept together. After all, they were both mother and son. It had been too long since they had seen each other, which was reasonable. Zhang Baixue fell asleep peacefully in Cheng Xiujuan's arms.
Cheng Xiujuan was so excited that she didn't fall asleep all night, but looked at Zhang Baixue's face in the dark, with a loving smile on her lips.
People usually become very strong when there is no one to help them in a crisis, but Zhang Baixue became even more fragile after finding her mother. It seems that at this moment, she really has the identity of a daughter, and how much she hopes to always be there. Cheng Xiujuan was lying in her arms.
Su Mingcheng and Chen Zhen were not in a hurry to go to bed. Although there were some episodes today, Su Mingcheng was very satisfied with the son-in-law in front of him. He had his own opinions on things and would not panic when things happened. The breath between his eyebrows seemed He seems to be calm in the face of danger, and only after chatting with Chen Zhen did he find out that Chen Zhen has his own factory outside.
Su Mingcheng and Chen Zhen wandered outside the match factory for a long time. Chen Zhen also took Su Mingcheng to visit the match factory at night.
When Su Mingcheng entered the factory area, what he saw were rows of low factories and warehouses. The roofs were gray cement tiles, which looked a bit old. The roads in the factory area were narrow and paved with stones. There were occasionally a few vehicles at night. Vintage bicycles pass by.
Although the surrounding environment is a bit desolate, you can still see the cultural heritage of this match factory over the years. Except for the buildings in the factory area, it is surrounded by farmland and wasteland, and there are a few low hills in the distance.
"Dad, many leaders came to Pingjiang Ancient City before. You were in charge at that time, right?"
Chen Zhen and Su Mingcheng were walking side by side, and he scratched his head and asked softly.
Su Mingcheng smiled slightly and paused: "It's beyond my expectation that you, a young boy in his early twenties, can do that. Originally, I could have entered early so that you wouldn't have to go through those things, but I I just want to see how capable you, Chen Zhen, are, and also see if my daughter will be wronged if she follows you!"
"Don't tell me, I was really sweating that time when you fell, but you finally didn't let me down. Every step you took was beyond my expectations, and it was also within my expectations. , until the last step, I knew I should come forward. If I don’t protect my own child, who will?”
"What do you think, Chen Zhen!"
…
After Su Mingcheng finished speaking, he stopped and looked at Chen Zhen. Chen Zhen seemed to have all kinds of emotions in his heart. He then raised his chest and nodded: "Dad, don't worry. My father passed away two years ago. I am a child." I don’t have time to repay him properly, Zhang Baixue has suffered a lot of grievances since she was a child, I am your child, you will not lose a good daughter, but gain an extra son!"
Chen Zhen and Su Mingcheng stood on the high ground in the factory area, feeling the spring breeze blowing on their faces. Everything looked so beautiful. The two looked at each other and smiled, their hearts filled with longing and expectations for the future. At this moment, the match factory seems to be glowing with new vitality, waiting for a better tomorrow.
As dusk approached on the afternoon of the next day, Chen Zhen packed up some things for worship. After all, he always had to tell his father when such a big thing happened, so that the old man could be happy in heaven, and also so that Zhang Baixue and his parents could Go take a look.
Although Su Mingcheng and Cheng Xiujuan had been in the capital for such a long time, they still understood some etiquette and naturally expressed their willingness to go together. However, when a group of people were getting ready to go out, there was a rapid knock on the door. .
After Chen Zhen opened the door, it was none other than Sun Ergou. Sun Ergou was breathing heavily with a hurried look on his face. He bent over and breathed air for a while.
"Brother Zhen, brother Zhen, something happened. Pingjiang Chamber of Commerce, a lot of people from the chamber of commerce went over to cause trouble. You should go and have a look..."
What?
Is the Pingjiang Chamber of Commerce causing trouble?
After hearing this, Chen Zhen immediately looked back at the calendar at the back, which had a red number on it, May 1st.
Are these people still doing business? Why are they using this good business day to cause trouble during the Golden Week of the May Day holiday? Simply...
Chen Zhen did not hesitate and greeted Cheng Xiujuan and Su Mingcheng. The two of them immediately signaled Chen Zhen to go do their own things quickly. It was good for them to spend time with their daughter.
The entrance of Pingjiang Chamber of Commerce.
As night fell, outside the gate of the Pingjiang Chamber of Commerce, under a dim street light, a crowd of people gathered around. The light shone on those anxious faces, reflecting an uneasy mood. On the side of the road, carriages and rickshaws were parked on the side of the road. The drivers were talking in low voices, and their shadows were stretched out.
The door of the Chamber of Commerce was closed, and several security guards stood at the door vigilantly. Their expressions were serious and they held batons tightly in their hands. Inside the chamber of commerce, a faint light shines from the office windows, reflecting the restless atmosphere outside the window. Occasionally, a few quarrels came from the crowd, but they were quickly drowned in the noise.
"Chen Zhen came out, hasn't he already taken over the position of president of the Pingjiang Chamber of Commerce? Then why are the members of Lao San Lao Si and Lao Si asking us to collect money? We managed to make more money during the May Day holiday, but now the protection fee is actually We just took away nearly three hundred yuan, how will we live in the future of our store? Come out and give us an explanation!"
"It's useless to look for Chen Zhen. You have to look for Wang Fugui. He is now the vice president of the Pingjiang Chamber of Commerce. He has the final say in everything. Let me tell you, this Wang Fugui is nothing. He is jealous of Shunchang. The boss of the shop, the third and fourth boss didn’t go to his vinegar shop to ask for money. Maybe this money king Fugui also took a lot of money. Let me tell you, these people are still smart people. Look at his honesty in the past. It’s true, it’s changed now!”
"That's right, we have to give an explanation today. If you don't give an explanation, we will fucking come and smash your home. You have ruined our jobs. At worst, no one will work anymore. We can all die together. Either give us the money, or get that old man back, you idiot!"
"Get them back. He ran away two mornings. It's almost impossible to catch them. Now we can only hope that the money will come back. You don't have to worry about anything else."
