Xu Sigui shook his head, took out another cigarette from the cigarette case in his hand, lit it for him and said, "You drive!" Don't ask about this. I don't believe you. If I believe you, can't I protect my privacy? Even couples have their own privacy that they should keep, not to mention that you and I are just friends.
This is not good for you. Xue Mu suspected that he had gotten the cigarette by mistake, so he blurted out, did you steal it from a cigarette store or supermarket in the city? Even if it is, I won't say it.
Are you talking nonsense, am I that kind of pickpocket? Xu Sigui looked at him angrily and said, Xue Mu, even if I have a crooked intention to steal, I don't have that kind of crooked ability. Don't you know this?
Xue Mu thought that what he said was right, so he admitted his mistake and said, I made a wild guess. Since one is not stealing and the other is not robbing, what should be kept secret?
Xu Sigui just made up a half-truth and half-false reason, you know? Since my wife was lighting a fire at Mr. Wu's construction site, I asked my wife to ask Mr. Wu to pay some money first. But when the payment for the work was not due, Mr. Wu gave my wife four cents a month in exchange for a cigarette that was not given as a gift. About three thirds of wages.
oh! Is such that. Xue Mu started the walking tractor while thinking about his words. He still believed half of his words and half doubted them. He thought that Xu Sigui's wife might not agree with using this high-end cigarette to pay wages.
Xue Mu felt that there was no need to ask any more questions, so he stepped on the accelerator, and the four wheels under the started walking tractor began to spin rapidly. With a "chugging" roar, a puff of black smoke came out, and behind him It floated around for a long time, like a cloud of doubts that Xue Mu had left behind.
Her husband hadn't returned to Kapok Village for several days, and Gong Yawen had some doubts in his mind. He was worried that he was hanging out with other women, and even more worried that he would sneak other women into the unleased apartment in his building in the town. If you are looking for pleasure and having fun, you will feel uncomfortable. Those who are silent and taciturn are always thinking about catching adulterers.
After dinner that day, she fed her son, said hello to Mr. Ma, and lied that she would go to the west of the village to visit her for a while, and it would be too boring to stay at home.
After Gong Yawen went out, he walked straight to Kapok Town and walked for about half an hour before arriving at the town. It was getting late, and except for the bright lights on the streets and stores in the town, everything was dark.
She approached her building in the town and found that the suite on the left side of the third floor was dark, proving that no one was inside.
She immediately went up to open the door and turn on the lights. Various styles of colored lights in the entire suite lit up one after another, and the lights complemented each other, which was particularly beautiful.
She was not in the mood to admire the lights, so she went straight to the luxurious bedroom and looked carefully on Simmons' bed to see if there was anything left by the woman.
Last time she accidentally picked up a long woman's hair on this bed. This time, she patted the sheets back and forth and rummaged around, but found nothing.
Despite this, Gong Yawen did not eliminate her wariness towards her husband.
She struggled for a while and suddenly felt tired. She sat down on the edge of the bed and became calm.
She thought that there was a light on in this apartment. If her husband approached the building with a wild woman and saw it, she would never let the wild woman go upstairs. Based on this consideration, she immediately turned off the lights, went out and closed the door. She did not return to Kapok Village, but He walked to the opposite side of the corridor and knocked on the door.
The door opened, and a round-faced woman about her age who rented the house stood at the door. She recognized Gong Yawen by the light and called enthusiastically, "Landlord, what's the matter?" Come in and sit.
I have nothing to do, I just want to hang out. Gong Yawen walked in and spoke calmly.
The round-faced woman immediately told her to sit on the sofa, then poured tea and handed it to her. Gong Yawen was not thirsty, so he politely took it and put it on the coffee table in front of him, and said with a pout, you're welcome, you're welcome.
The round-faced woman has been renting here for more than a year and has only met Gong Yawen once. The first time she came with her husband was when her husband took her to each floor to get to know the tenants, and then said that he would charge her every six months from now on. For one rent payment, you just need to pay the rent to her.
But in fact, Gong Yawen has not left Kapok Village since she became pregnant and gave birth to her child. Half a year later, the tenants could not go to Kapok Village to find Gong Yawen. However, they paid the rent according to the rental agreement signed by both parties. A lot of it was given to Wu Xiaofeng, because he lived in this building and met often. I haven't stayed there much recently, but I still come here.
Tonight Gong Yawen knocked on the door, and the door opened. The round-faced woman recognized her as Wu Xiaofeng's wife at a glance, because she had characteristics. After meeting and talking to people, she always tended to tilt her head slightly, raise her neck, and look plain. I don't know if it's a pretense of elegance or a habit.
When the round-faced woman was talking to her and saw that she didn't look at him and held her head high, as if she was looking down on others, she felt unhappy in her heart.
But after all, you are the landlord and you have to cater to him. And I speculated in my heart: The landlord said that it is not that simple to come to visit! She has never been here before, could it be? Then he suddenly said to her, I have already given half a year's rent to your lover.
Not here to ask for rent. Gong Yawen shook his head and suddenly looked at her with a kind look and a kind tone. I came to see your tenants. Is it okay to rent this room?
The round-faced woman said it was okay.
Gong Yawen said that if you have any inconveniences when renting here, you can report it to our landlord.
After chatting for a while, Gong Yawen asked that this round-faced woman had the same surname as hers, her name was Gong Xuefen, and she was a self-employed person doing small vegetable business in Kapok Town.
As they chatted, Gong Yawen and she developed a sisterly relationship, and the distance between them became even closer. Gong Yawen suddenly changed the subject, Xuefen, I want to ask you something, it's very simple, help me, okay?
OK! As long as I can help. Gong Xuefen answered easily.
Gong Yawen looked around mysteriously, and then focused her eyes on the door. She seemed particularly sensitive as if someone was eavesdropping outside the door.
When she came in just now, the door was not fully closed and was ajar. Gong Xuefen stood up knowingly and walked over to close the door. Then she sat beside her, holding her breath and looking at Gong Yawen intently, as if waiting for the suspense of a story to appear. result.
Gong Yawen once again asked Gong Xuefen to keep it secret. Seeing her nodding sincerely, Gong Yawen expressed his speculative thoughts, you know? It's not easy for us as women.
She gently pulled the platinum necklace around her neck and continued, "Although I seem to be better dressed than ordinary women, in fact, I also have a lot of troubles." The guy in my family is a construction boss and he has some money. When he has money, he will become bad.
Gong Xuefen interrupted her and said, if your man was unfaithful to you, would he still buy you a necklace? That is a token of love.
You are right. A wry smile appeared on Gong Yawen's face, and he continued, "My man who is good to me can also be good to other women. If he is good to other women, can't he also buy a platinum necklace as a token of love?"
Gong Xuefen nodded in agreement, even sympathizing with her psychologically tortured experience.
When I heard Gong Yawen say, "One thing I want to ask of you is to be my eyes and ears, especially at night to help me secretly observe whether the man in my family has brought another woman here. If so, remember it." , tell me when the time comes." Gong Xuefen shuddered.
She said in her heart: I can't do this kind of thing. You, Gong Yawen, can't afford to offend you, and your man, Mr. Wu, can't afford to offend him even more. Once there is trouble, or Mr. Wu knows the truth that I am acting as his wife's spy, it will not only be me. Gong Xuefen was buried and left. The second best thing was that she couldn't rent the house. The problem was that Mr. Wu would still find trouble for me.
She thought subconsciously: This is easy to handle, and neither of us will offend. Even if I really find out that Mr. Wu is having an affair with another woman, and is still having sex in the apartment opposite, I will turn a blind eye and close one eye. , if you ask Gong Yawen, I won’t tell you. I’ll just say that I haven’t discovered this matter. You can’t do anything to me, and it doesn’t count as offending you.
After thinking about it like this, she said in a comforting tone, okay, I will be your eyes and ears, but I will say one thing and two things, and I won't wrongly accuse your husband.
I will thank you then. The gratitude Gong Yawen said meant that she would only thank Gong Xuefen after he gave her information. Without the information, she would not have any material gratitude to Gong Xuefen, only verbally.
No need to thank you. Gong Xuefen shook her hand and saw Gong Yawen standing up to leave with a lonely look on her face, so she encouraged her to be more open-minded.
Gong Yawen hummed and said, I am very cheerful, I just want to speak with evidence and never make trouble, but there is no usable evidence, so I have to ask you, the eyes and ears, to work harder and really help me get some information that can be used as evidence.
OK! Gong Xuefen sent her out and when she returned to the room, she kept shaking her head and thinking to herself: I will not act as an eyes and ears.
After a while, I heard the honking of a car. The source of the sound came from the place in front of the rental building. It must have been Wu Xiaofeng driving the car back. This was none of Gong Xuefen's business, but Gong Yawen entrusted her to be the eyes and ears. Although he didn't want to cooperate and was afraid of getting angry, he still paid attention and wanted to verify whether Gong Yawen's suspicion about her man was true or false.
Gong Xuefen immediately walked quietly to the night-shrouded balcony of the back house and looked downstairs quietly. With the car lights that had not been extinguished, she discovered that the car was parked in the field in front of the building.
Wu Xiaofeng, who was sitting in the cab, turned off the car lights and came out, turning into a figure, but no one came out of the car.
She concluded that Wu Xiaofeng was the only one in the car, and she did not find the woman that the suspicious Gong Yawen suspected coming out of the car, and then taking advantage of the cover of night to walk shoulder to shoulder with Wu Xiaofeng.
