Lan Xi changed her clothes and came out, and found Shanlihong coming. Just ask, sister-in-law, have you had breakfast?
Shan Lihong said: "Not yet. I'm not hungry."
Xu Shasha said: "You have to eat even if you are not hungry. Otherwise it would be dozens of miles from here to the town. Then we will be in trouble if we are hungry."
Shan Lihong thought what she said made sense, so she quickly put down the box and went to the kitchen to help her aunt light the fire.
Father Liang was sitting in front of the kitchen hall, smoking a hookah.
The firewood in the stove was crackling and burning, and the fire was very strong. The water in the iron pot made a splashing sound.
When Father Liang saw his niece-in-law coming in, he hurriedly gave up his seat to her and took the hookah to smoke outside the house.
Xu Shasha and Lan Xi were chatting in the car. It's already seven o'clock in the morning. It will be dinner in half an hour.
Mother Liang is cutting vegetables. I haven’t eaten the pork I bought from town yesterday. Just in time for breakfast.
Shanlihong said: "Auntie, this time I go to the city, I will definitely find a good job and I will never embarrass the villagers. Please rest assured. If I can't find a good job, I won't come back."
Liang's mother said: "That's okay. You married my nephew. Even if you don't have a job, you still have to come back to the mountains. Besides, didn't your husband go to Lincheng to work? Why didn't you go with him? Hey, Have you told Shan Wazi about this? It’s about you going to the city to find a job. Does your mother know?"
Shan Lihong: "I went back and talked to them on the phone last night. My husband said that as long as I go to the city with Lan Xi to find a job, there will be no problem. My mother also said that I will call her when I get to the city. It doesn't matter if the situation is good or bad. Hiding it from her. Oh, aunt, my mother also said that she will not come back until this afternoon. Please help me take care of the chickens and ducks. By the way, there is also the old pig in the pen. I also need you to take care of it. Pig food I cooked it yesterday. It's in the pot in the kitchen."
Mother Liang said there was no problem. She just helps.
Shan Lihong was grateful. The eye circles feel a little moist.
The food was served and several large bowls were placed. There is pork, bacon, fish and tofu. Green vegetables. Since we had eaten, we had to drive back to the city. No one can drink alcohol. But Father Liang was happy today and poured himself a glass of home-brewed rice wine. Mother Liang also came for a drink. The family chatted while eating, full of confidence. During the dinner, Shan Lihong hummed a nice Yue opera piece. The singing voice is mellow and measured. Lan Xi secretly approached Xu Shasha and told her a secret.
It turns out that Shanlihong was once a famous actress in the village. A theater troupe was established in the village before. Kurenai Yamazato is also one of the characters. Because of his good looks, he can speak and sing. The sound is particularly nice. He can also write lyrics and compose music. She became the leading actress in the troupe. The troupe's business was particularly good in the first two years. Whenever there are weddings or weddings nearby, just invite them to come and sing. It was definitely a hit.
Unexpectedly, in the winter of the year before last, several leading actors in the troupe died of illness one after another. In addition to Yamazato Hong, several other important characters also left one after another due to family and marriage reasons. Some went to Guangdong. Some took their wives and children to big cities. Some simply stopped singing. Became a housewife. And that winter. Shan Lihong had just gotten married, so she stayed at home. Because of her good looks, her husband Shan Wazi was worried that she would attract the attention of bad men when she went out to show off, so he simply tied her to his waistband and took her with him every step of the way. As a result, within two years, all the previous savings were spent. That’s why I decided to go out to work. Otherwise, Shan Lihong's husband would still be at home guarding her so many flowers.
After listening to Lan Xi's words, Xu Shasha was really impressed by Shan Lihong, so she joked that her husband was particularly handsome, otherwise she wouldn't have married him with Shan Lihong's ability and appearance. Lan Xi said that Shan Wazi was ordinary in appearance but good at seducing women. At that time, he was the only famous college student in the village. The family background is also relatively good. It was Yamazato Hong’s first love when she was studying in high school. The two have been in constant contact since graduating from high school. So they came together naturally.
Seeing that they were chatting quietly, Shanlihong clearly heard what they were talking about, so she put down the bowl and chopsticks and asked about the situation.
Xu Shasha quickly took the rice into her mouth and said, "Oh, it's nothing." Just talking about work.
Shan Lihong couldn't help it if she didn't believe it. Father Liang drank half a glass of wine and seemed unable to hold on. On the contrary, Mother Liang was not drunk at all.
Lan Xi said: "Dad, drink less. If you can't drink that much, don't drink."
Father Liang showed that he listened to his daughter-in-law's words and quickly poured the unfinished rice wine back into the vat. No more drinking.
Shan Lihong said: "Come. Sister Lan Xi, I will give you a piece of fish."
After saying that, he put a piece of fish into Lan Xi's bowl. Then he gave Xu Shasha another piece.
The two beauties watched helplessly as their sister-in-law served them food. There was really nothing they could do. I want to refuse but dare not. I wanted to say thank you but was afraid that Shanlihong would tell them not to be so rude. Then all we can do is turn a blind eye.
After eating breakfast, I looked at my watch. It was already nine o'clock. Before I knew it, the meal took almost an hour.
Lan Xi decided to return to the city immediately. Xu Shasha had already been prepared. She quickly pulled Shan Lihong out and helped her throw the suitcase into the trunk of her car. The meaning is very clear, that is, she wants Shan Lihong to ride in her car. Naturally, Shan Lihong would not refuse.
Lan Xi said goodbye to her parents and came out, and found Shanlihong already in Xu Shasha's car, so she didn't say anything.
The two elders stood under the two pine trees in front of the house and watched them drive out of the yard and disappear on the curve thirty meters ahead before going back. After returning home, the two elders quickly called their son Liang Huan and told him that their daughter-in-law was already on her way back. Liang Huan called back and said he had returned to the city. There is an operation in the hospital in the afternoon. The two elders said nothing.
Lan Xi already knew this news. Just didn't tell anyone.
In fact, at dawn, Liang Huan sent a message to Lan Xi and told him about the situation in the town.
Previous plans have been cancelled. He didn't quite know what the reason was. Intelligence showed that the Japanese mercenary named Sanbonliu had returned to the county in the middle of last night. At dawn, the trace suddenly disappeared again. So he had to rush back to the county seat immediately. On the one hand, he was preparing for an operation in the hospital in the afternoon, and on the other hand, he was assisting the Linxian police in searching for Sanbonliu's whereabouts. When Lan Xi saw the message, he was on his way back to the city.
Xu Shasha still knows about this. Lan Xi never told her.
She was a little worried about her boyfriend's safety, so she turned on the hands-free phone and dialed Lan Xiaohu's number. Then she handed the phone to Shan Lihong in the passenger seat and said, "Honey, are you still in town?"
Lan Xiaohu called back and said he was still there. Why, what happened?
Xu Shasha said: "Oh, I'm on my way back. Why don't we contact you after we get to town. Then let's go back to the city together." After saying this, she calmed down and listened.
Lan Xiaohu said: "Okay, I'll wait for you."
Xu Shasha: "Then, let me ask you, how did the mission go?"
Lan Xiaohu: "Don't mention it. The mission was messed up. The person who should be arrested was not caught. Instead, he fell into the opponent's plan. Let the main criminal escape."
Xu Shasha was surprised: "It's not that big of a deal, husband, isn't Dr. Liang here too?"
Lan Xiaohu: "Don't mention him. He went back to the city early in the morning. He is probably already enjoying himself in a corner of the city now."
"Ah, how is that possible? My brother is definitely not this kind of person."
Shan Lihong could tell that he was talking about Liang Huan and quickly replied.
Lan Xiaohu was startled: "Hey, who are you? Why are you in my girlfriend's car?"
Shan Lihong was a little embarrassed and was about to open her mouth to speak, but Xu Shasha beat her to it.
"Haha, she is Lan Xi's cousin-in-law, Miss Shanlihong."
Shan Lihong had no choice but to shut her mouth and say nothing.
Lan Xiaohu said: "I'm sorry then. Sister-in-law, don't be offended. This is just me."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xu Shasha.
"Oh, hubby, I have nothing else to do and hang up the phone. See you later."
Lan Xiaohu had no choice but to change his words: "Okay, see you later."
.....
After hanging up the phone, Lan Xiaohu lay down in the chair in the ward, then raised his head to look at Liu Yusheng.
Liu Yusheng is having an infusion. According to the doctor, Liu Yusheng can be discharged from the hospital and go home tomorrow.
However, the police are still looking for two suspects besides Sanbonliu. They are bald and skinny. Ever since the bald man and the thin man left the hospital last night, they never came back.
At that time, based on the locations of the two suspects sent by Liang Huan, the police immediately went to search for them, but they were not found. But according to the evidence submitted by police investigators at the time, after the bald man and the thin man entered the hotel through the front door, they immediately slipped away through the back door. After that, they were completely lost.
From this point of view, the bald man and the thin man had already visited this place before coming to town. Otherwise, I would never feel so familiar with the environment here. Liu Yusheng also thought of this after learning about this situation.
Liu Yusheng said: "Officer Lan, I want to talk to you about Sanbenliu. When do you think Sanbenliu escaped from police surveillance and fled back to the county last night?"
Lan Xiaohu: "I don't know, I'm not the roundworm in Sanbenliu's stomach."
Liu Yusheng said: "If you ask me, it must be around three o'clock in the morning when people are most tired."
Lan Xiaohu: "Well, what you said makes sense. It's just that there is a lack of evidence."
Liu Yusheng: "There is no evidence and it does not mean that my judgment is wrong."
Lan Xiaohu: "Yes, everything you said makes sense. But I have to remind you. The bald man and the thin man might suddenly break in and kill you. The fact is already clear, they have given up the documents and information in your hands. .The next thing I want to do is kill people."
Liu Yusheng: "Then they come here. I don't want to live anymore."
Lan Xiaohu said: "Is it true? But from the look of you, you seem to be worried about your own safety."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone knocked on the door and came in. It brought in a burst of fragrance.
The two men looked up in surprise. Surprised. The visitor turned out to be Liang Xiaohui.
"Hey, Miss Liang, why are you here?"
Liu Yusheng was so surprised that he almost rolled off the hospital bed. Quickly grab the window edge with your other hand and hold on.
Lan Xiaohu's eyes widened, and he even thought in his mind that she was that Liang Xiaohui.
