Outside the city, in a tile-roofed house, Zheng Bajin just put a bowl of fish on an Eight Immortals table.
The table was old, having been used for decades, but it was sturdy. Moreover, she wiped it clean, which shows that Wanqing's mother is also a neat person.
Wanqing had already brought bowls and chopsticks, and each of them scooped out a bowl of rice. Just as she was about to scoop out a bowl for her mother, Zheng Bajin said, "No hurry, give Auntie a small bowl of soup first."
This is fish in clear soup, with only coriander, a little shepherd's purse, and ginger slices in it. The soup is the most nutritious.
Giving her a bowl now is undoubtedly the best way to supplement her nutrition.
Wanqing did as she was told. The fish smelled delicious and the soup was definitely delicious. However, she was not in a hurry to enjoy it herself. Instead, she followed Zheng Bajin's instructions and made a bowl for her mother first, blowing on it with her small mouth. , then bring it to the mother's side and feed her with a small spoon.
My mother was already mostly recovered, so she took the soup and said, "I'll do it myself, and you guys eat first. How can the guests watch me, a woman, drink the soup first?"
Seeing that her spirits were much better, Wanqing felt relieved and realized that she was being too rude. She was busy asking Zheng Bajin and Tang Zhengwen to eat first.
Zheng Bajin was not polite. He and Lao Tang picked up the bowls and started eating. He also said that the fish must be eaten while it is hot as it will become stale after a while.
To be honest, Old Tang was a generous man. He was willing to spend money and bought a fish weighing more than eight kilograms.
The fish at this time was not cheap, costing two yuan a pound, which was not enough for Tang Zhengwen's day's wages, but he didn't look heartbroken at all and ate it up. Mainly, the taste is so authentic, a rare delicacy in the world.
Wanqing also started eating and gave her mother a few pieces to keep cold.
If Zheng Bajin knew that Qingqing was being plotted by others at this time, he would definitely drop the bowl and run away.
However, he didn't know that. Instead, he ate the fish and went out with Old Tang at about 11 o'clock in the evening.
Wanqing was very happy and wanted to send them off, but Zheng Bajin stopped her and said that she was staying at home with her aunt and that Old Tang would come to help her cut vegetables tomorrow.
As soon as her mother was mentioned, Wanqing no longer insisted on sending her away.
When her mother saw her coming back, she blamed her for not giving her away. She was willing to spend money and was very capable, so she couldn't lose her hospitality.
Wanqing took a deep look at her mother. It seemed that she was attracted to Zheng Bajin.
At this time, Zheng Bajin and Tang Zhengwen were pulling the carriage on their way back to the city.
Tang Zhengwen suddenly said: "Boss, you must have fallen in love with this little girl, otherwise, you wouldn't be so interested in her."
"Damn it! I think you have fallen in love with the old aunt. Otherwise, you would not be willing to spend money to buy fish, and you would buy such a big one." Zheng Bajin was not polite and started to argue with Tang Zhengwen.
"No, what does it mean to be an old aunt? What does it mean that I am willing to spend money to buy fish? Didn't you ask me to buy it?" Tang Zhengwen was unhappy and retorted, but suddenly he raised his brows and said, "Don't tell me yet. This aunt is not bad, she looks okay, and she endures hardships, but she is a little too cruel to herself. She obviously has money, but she is reluctant to eat it. "
"Oh, she is frugal and does everything for her daughter." Zheng Bajin secretly laughed in his heart. Sure enough, the old Tang nun put on lipstick and was attracted to her, but she still refused to admit it, "She is a poor woman. From now on, you should take more care of her. "
Tang Zhengwen said: "You'd better take more care of Wanqing."
"She doesn't need to care too much. In a few months, after she graduates, she will be able to get a salary and eat. Then she will really grow up." Zheng Bajin really didn't have any bad intentions, he just sympathized with Wanqing.
At first, he had some selfish motives, thinking that he could trick this person into his store and later find her a branch manager or something. However, after hearing about her life experience, he changed his mind.
Teaching and educating people may be her best destination!
Not everyone must be in business, so who else can make money?
After parting ways with Tang Zhengwen, Zheng Bajin hurried back home.
Before I went upstairs, I saw that the lights in the living room were still on. I couldn't help but feel a little strange. It's so late, why don't you rest?
When he went upstairs, he didn't take the key to open the door, but knocked on the door. Before the people inside asked, he announced his door, saying that I am eight pounds, and I am back!
It was Du Fengqi who opened the door.
Zheng Bajin looked at her strangely, then looked at Qingqing who was putting down the broom, and said, "Why are you here?"
"Oh, you also said that I have been waiting for you all afternoon." Du Fengqi said as if she was a little unhappy.
"Wait for me? Oh, by the way, has the packaging machine matter been settled?" Zheng Bajin slapped his forehead and looked at Du Fengqi happily.
Wang Dingmei glanced at Qingqing, her eyes a little complicated. Doesn't the boss want to take advantage of the situation? Judging from your excitement, you don't care about what happened tonight.
It turned out that after defeating the gangster, the three of them became afraid, fearing that the gangster would find someone to retaliate again, so they did not dare to send Du Fengqi home, so they returned to Qingqing's home together.
Although most people didn't dare to come in, the three women were also very careful and didn't dare to sleep. That's why Qingqing appeared holding the broom and Du Fengqi opened the door.
Du Fengqi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I looked for the acquaintance inside, but he wanted money to buy it. He was rushing back to the store to find you for advice, but you were not there."
"Oh, I met an acquaintance when I went out to do some errands. Tell me the key, how much did they charge?" Zheng Bajin said eagerly.
"It costs two hundred yuan, but the machine looks to be in pretty good condition."
"As long as you think it's good, I'll bring it back tomorrow." Zheng Bajin was very happy. He thought that people would raise the price from the ground up. Two hundred yuan is not a big deal for him now.
"Okay, but you have to pull it yourself."
After the matter was settled, Zheng Bajin looked at the three of them doubtfully and said: "Looking at how nervous you were just now, did something happen?"
"Well, it's strange to say that we met three gangsters tonight. Fortunately, Sister Wang is very good. Three strikes and five divided by two can solve the problem. However, we are worried that they will come for revenge, so we don't dare to continue to kill Du Fengqi. Send him home." Qingqing finally found a chance, but couldn't continue and looked at Wang Dingmei.
Wang Dingmei didn't think anything of it. The things she had experienced were more embarrassing than this, so she recounted what happened that night without missing a single detail.
However, a woman like Du Fengqi, although she usually spoke without restraint and had been in love at school, was still a little embarrassed listening to her performance at this time.
Zheng Bajin's expression turned ugly, as if the one who suffered was not the other party, but the woman beside him, Qingqing.
He said that anyone who dares to figure out Qing Qing's intentions will suffer a terrible death.
However, he also heard that the other party should be coming for Du Fengqi, and it must be related to those people today.
He stood up and said, "This matter can't end like this, we must call the police."
After saying that, he really went out, took the three women to the street, and went directly to the local police station to report the case, saying that several men were openly molesting well-behaved women at the entrance of the municipal family area.
