I didn’t mean to go back on my word, I just felt I was at a loss and made my words clear. I have many sheep, and I don’t mind losing one sheep.
As Wu Zidan circled the dead sheep lying on the ground, he laughed at himself and said, "I won't do this kind of loss-making business anymore. I will kill the sheep myself and sell them myself."
After all, the butcher had a guilty conscience. Seeing that Wu Zidan was not looking for trouble, but only complained a few words, he thought it was understandable. He calmed down and took out a white shaving knife from the flower basket containing the butchering knives and handed it to Wu Zidan. Dan said, take it, and from now on you will kill the sheep and sell them, and you will make a fortune.
Wu Zidan took the razor and said, "I won't be polite then."
Wu Zidan took out toilet paper from his clothes and wiped the blade of the scouring knife. He also asked the vegetable vendor for a disposable soft plastic bag that could be used once and wrapped the blade of the scouring knife properly and stuck it on his waist. On the way, I went to the investment company in the south of the town to buy a bag of urea and carried it straight home.
It only took ten minutes to cross a reservoir dam, two fields, three bridges, and a low mountain. When I arrived at the door of my house, I placed a bag of urea against the wall of the main room.
He was covered in sweat and was about to take a towel to wipe his face or wash up. His mother, Mrs. Shen, came out of the kitchen with an unopened letter in her hand and handed it to Wu Zidan and said, "Son!" It's strange. About ten minutes ago, I went to the main room to open the door, and a letter fell from the gap in the door latch. Since I couldn't read, I picked it up without opening it. You open it and read it to me. In the end, Who wrote it?
Wu Zidan took the letter and was quite surprised, because only the words "Wu Zidan" were written on the envelope, and neither the recipient's address nor the sender's address was written on it.
He was puzzled and concluded that it was the letter writer or the author who asked someone to ask for his address and sent it personally.
Wu Zidan opened the letter and asked Shen, Mom, have you seen anyone come?
Shen shook his head, where did I see it? Read it to me quickly.
Wu Zidan opened the letter and pulled out the only large piece of white paper inside, with only one line of words on it: Wu Zidan, your wife has committed adultery with a wild man, please go back and catch her.
It was written in pencil, but it didn't look like a child's handwriting, it was clearly an adult's handwriting.
He was very angry after seeing it and wished he could rush home immediately.
At this time, Mrs. Gong urged, read it to me quickly.
Wu Zidan had the nerve to read this sentence to his own mother, so he made up a sentence to coax her, Mom, this is what it says, Cai Zhongsheng said that your granddaughter Wu Ying is sick again and wants me to rush back.
Mr. Gong believed it and said, Oh! No wonder your face changed after reading the letter. You felt anxious. Then go back and take a look.
Wu Zidan said no and wanted to go to the mountain to talk to his father who was looking after the sheep.
No, your father is back, I will tell him. Mrs. Gong anxiously urged her son to go home quickly.
Wu Zidan nodded, folded the white paper in his hand and stuffed it into the envelope.
He wanted to tear it up, but he couldn't do it in front of Gong.
When he went out, he did not go straight home. Instead, he crossed the fields and went to the mountain to tell his father. He repeated the lie he had told his mother, saying that he had received a letter from home telling him that your granddaughter Wu Ying was sick again, and that she was sick again. Very powerful.
He also patted the bulge on his right buttocks and said, Dad, I bought a pack of urea and put it at home. When you have time, spread the urea into the fields. I want to go to Liulin Village. I'm going to stay in Qiujiazhuang for a few days. I have the remaining money in my wallet to buy urea. Just think of it as lending it to me, because your granddaughter Wu Ying will have to pay for her medical treatment. That's it, I'm leaving.
Wu Jiaguang said unhappily, "Take it and use it, don't borrow it." He also looked at the sheep all over the mountain and said, "You are back. When the ewe gives birth to a lamb, you can take a female to your new home in Qiujiazhuang to graze and breed. There are many mountains there with abundant water and grass." I wish I could develop the goat breeding industry and get rich in the future, lest you always take advantage of your father.
Wu Zidan forced a smile, stuck out his tongue, and turned around to leave.
Wu Jiaguang looked at his son's back and said, "Go ahead!" He shook his head again and thought to himself: Next time I am short of money, I won't ask you to help me sell goats for money. You have such hands that the money will stick to it and leave nothing.
After Wu Zidan went down the mountain, he left Liushu Village directly. However, since it was more than 20 kilometers away from Liulin Village where his home was located, there was no direct road in between. There was only a country dirt road that stretched along a series of east-west mountains.
It was not possible to drive up there, so it was already getting late when he walked halfway. After walking a little further, the night became darker. Just a moment ago, he could still see the stars twinkling in the sky, but soon they were covered by dark clouds, as if covering his heart. He felt that it was not only the road that was dark, but also his mind.
Walking on the road, he kept trying to figure out the contents of the anonymous letter.
When it was not dark, he would repeatedly take out the envelope and look at it carefully. This made him so angry that he wanted to tear it to pieces.
But no, he just crumpled the letter and stuffed it back into the envelope as if to vent his anger. He thought it could be used as a handle, so he kept it with him. When he got home, he could ask his wife which wild man she had an affair with. You can dig them out and settle the accounts together.
He hurried back to Liulin Village. The sky was so dark that he couldn't see his fingers. The village was divided between the east and the west. Some had lights on, and some were dark. It was clear that many families had gone to bed.
His house is located between the east and west, and it is also dark at the moment.
He walked quietly over and heard someone whispering in the room. The words came from the bedroom, mixed with a man's voice, but he couldn't make out what was said.
He suddenly remembered that the strange letter he received from his mother in Willow Village was true. This made him extremely angry, so he went to the base of the bedroom wall in the dark and shouted, "Zhongsheng, you fucking take advantage of this." I'm not at home, who am I hanging out with? Open the door to me! Open the door!
The bedroom suddenly became silent, only rustling sounds were heard, and it felt like someone was getting up, getting dressed, and walking out of the bedroom into the middle room.
Wu Zidan thought the door was about to open, so he guarded the door. After a while, I felt something was wrong. I heard a knock at the back door. It was clear that someone had escaped through the back door. I concluded that it was a wild man, so I immediately walked around the front of the house, intending to go to the back of the house to intercept the wild man.
But after a slow step, Wu Zidan walked around to the back door. No ghosts were seen, and the back of the house was completely silent.
He entered the house through the back door, passed through the middle room, and walked into the bedroom with the door open and the lights on. He saw Cai Zhongsheng getting up with his clothes on, his hair messy, but he did not dare to look at him.
At this time, the child Wu Ying woke up and was crying in the cradle.
Cai Zhongsheng picked her up to breastfeed her. Wu Zidan held back his words, but his face was very ferocious.
When the baby's eyelids were slightly closed and she fell asleep, and Cai Zhongsheng put her back in the cradle, Wu Zidan stared at Cai Zhongsheng, who still didn't dare to look at him, and growled, "Tell me clearly which wild man you are with." We were fooling around together. If I had bumped into him from the back door just now, I would have killed him with a knife.
As he said that, Wu Zidan touched the razor inserted in his waist, as if he was eager to kill someone to vent his anger.
