Siheyuan: Start with a Truck Driver

Of course, because Er Aunt and Zhou Shuanzhu are both old-school characters, they came from before liberation.

So at the beginning, there was no interesting story.

The two just chatted with each other for a while, talking about some past events and some things in the village, but that was all.

But Liu Haizhong had already become a fourth-level worker at that time, and he felt that he had become a big shot in the steel rolling mill.

Therefore, I look down upon the second aunt who does housework at home all day long.

Every time after drinking, he would beat up the second aunt.

The second aunt came to the capital to live a good life.

What she never expected was that not only would she not live a good life, but she would also be abused by Liu Haizhong.

That's right, and the life that Second Aunt lives in the capital is sometimes even worse than her life in the village.

Think about it, Liu Haizhong was just a small worker at the beginning, and could only get a salary of twenty or thirty yuan a month.

Logically speaking, this amount of money should be quite a lot, and it would definitely be easy for two people to live together.

It’s just that Liu Haizhong particularly likes drinking.

In this day and age, wine is brewed from grain, and the price is not that expensive. Even the bulk wine in a tavern costs more than one yuan per bottle.

Liu Haizhong drinks an average of one bottle of wine every day, so he doesn't have much left over from his monthly salary.

Often the family has no money to buy food before the end of the month. In order to fill her stomach, the second aunt sometimes even has to go back to the village to borrow food.

Living a hard life, and then being abused by Liu Haizhong, the second aunt felt very regretful.

So she often sneaked into Zhou Shuanzhu's house while her bangs were at work and cried to Zhou Shuanzhu.

Zhou Shuanzhu felt a little panicked at first.

After all, in his opinion, men and women are not close to each other, and the second aunt is now someone else's wife.

If you are still flirting with him and are seen by neighbors or Liu Haizhong, you will be in big trouble.

But fear will gradually disappear over time, and as time goes by, the fear in Zhou Shuanzhu's heart will gradually disappear.

Sometimes he would even gently comfort the second aunt when she was crying.

On a stormy morning, the two returned to their previous relationship.

Of course, the second aunt never thought about marrying Liu Haizhong and then returning to Zhou Shuanzhu's arms.

But she also knew that if she got divorced in these years, her life would be ruined if anyone found out that she was having a relationship with another man.

In addition, Liu Haizhong was already a senior worker at the time, and soon she would be able to obtain two grain books as a family member.

In this way, the two of them maintained their relationship while leading their own lives.

Now that Liu Haizhong has been taken away, the second aunt is afraid that others will find the antiques in the box and needs to hide them. The first thing she thinks of is Zhou Shuanzhu.

Zhou Shuanzhu also felt strange that the second aunt arrived at this time.

The reason is simple. The two of them usually choose to date in the morning, when Liu Haizhong goes to work and is not at home.

He stretched his head and looked outside. After seeing that no one was following him, he saw the second aunt let him into the house, and then quickly closed the door.

"Little Orchid, why are you here?"

The box was very heavy. At this time, the second aunt was already panting from exhaustion. Only after taking a sip of tea did she have the strength to speak.

"Shuan Zhu, I'm in trouble this time and I need your help."

When Zhou Shuanzhu saw the box, he frowned and said, "The items in your box are not the antiques your father left for you, are they?"

Zhou Shuanzhu and the second aunt knew each other relatively early.

When the relationship between the two was very good, the second aunt told Zhou Shuanzhu what was going on in their home.

Zhou Shuanzhu also knew that the second aunt's father was a local master.

The second aunt nodded and said, "Yes, there are antiques here that can be worth a lot of money."

Zhou Shuanzhu's face changed with fright: "So you have been discovered?"

"That's not true, but now I'm under suspicion."

"Didn't I tell you? Never touch the antiques in the box. These are not antiques, they are all bombs." Zhou Shuanzhu said angrily.

The second aunt sighed and said: "How do I not know the dangers of these things?

It's just that Liu Haizhong was taken away. In order to save him, I didn't care so much. I thought nothing would happen, but who knew that I was discovered just after I sold two items. "

The second aunt looked at Zhou Shuanzhu and said: "Zhou Shuanzhu, I am in crisis now. The only one who can help me is you. You won't stand by and watch, right?"

To be honest, Zhou Shuanzhu has an honest and humble character, and he really doesn't want to get involved in the second aunt's troubles.

Although he is not married now, he gets a monthly salary and will receive his retirement salary when he retires. Why should he get involved in these things?

He knew very well that once these antiques were discovered, he would not be able to escape the relationship.

But Zhou Shuanzhu has real feelings for his second aunt.

But I couldn't bear to see the second aunt looking so lost.

"Okay, you put the box with me first. Wait until this weekend, and I will find a way to send the box back to my hometown. Our family has a cellar in the village. Put the box in the cellar and cover it with sweet potatoes. No one can find it. arrive."

Zhou Shuanzhu came up with a good idea.

"Okay, okay, I'll leave this matter to you." The second aunt finished speaking and was about to leave.

Zhou Shuanzhu looked at him and said, "What's the matter, aren't you staying here today? Anyway, your Liu Haizhong was also arrested. Even if you stay here, no one will find out."

The second aunt opened his hand and said: "No, not even for a while, Xu Damao in our compound has already set his sights on me.

If he finds me sneaking out secretly, maybe our affairs will be exposed. Let's wait for a while. I made an excuse to go back to my hometown and let's get together there. "

Hearing this, Zhou Shuanzhu nodded and said, "Then you must be careful."

The second aunt turned around and left the house. He closed the door tightly, looked at the box, and let out a long sigh.

He felt like he was getting himself into big trouble.

But Zhou Shuanshuo has no regrets.

the other side.

Liu Guangqi has also returned to his dormitory at the steel rolling mill.

His dormitory is not a single dormitory, but a dormitory in a tube building.

Although there is no bathroom, there is a kitchen for cooking and a living room. After returning home, he went into the kitchen and got busy.

I cooked several dishes in a row, put them on the table, and waited quietly for Zhao Shuya to come back.

Zhao Shuya is quite busy at work. The sales volume of Lanhua Automobile Factory has been increasing recently. Customers come from all over the world. As a translator, she sometimes works part-time as a salesperson.

Zhao Shuya was busy working until eight o'clock in the evening before returning home.

Liu Guangqi heard the footsteps outside and quickly opened the door.

Seeing Zhao Shuya coming back, he frowned and said, "Daughter-in-law, your work is getting busier and busier now. How can this continue? Otherwise, you can talk to Factory Director Liu and ask him to arrange a place for you that is more leisurely. Work. Don’t forget, you are still pregnant with our child.”

Zhao Shuya put the canvas bag on the sofa, sat down on it and said: "Liu Guangqi, what are you talking about? Director Liu can entrust the work to me, that is his trust in me. You Do you want me to be a housewife at home after marrying you?

Let me tell you Liu Guangqi, I am also a technical secondary school graduate, and I also have my own pursuits.

If you say this again in the future, then we will divorce. "

Liu Guangqi suddenly turned pale with fright, and said quickly: "I was just joking with you, don't be angry. I know that the translation work is very important to you, and I will never be there to persuade you again."

As he spoke, he took Zhao Shuya's hand and sat on the sofa, then handed the bowl and chopsticks to his hand and said, "Hurry up and eat. This is the meal I made specially for you. Look, I also cooked chicken and mushrooms." Here’s the soup.”

Zhao Shuya picked up her chopsticks to eat. Seeing that he was in a better mood, Liu Guangqi continued: "Zhao Shuya, my mother wants us to go back and live there. What do you think?"

Zhao Shuya frowned and said, "Liu Guangqi, weren't you just beaten by your father? Why are you such a bitch? You don't have a long memory at all. Do you still want to go back and be beaten by your father again?"

Liu Guangqi quickly explained: "Daughter-in-law, don't worry, just listen to what I have to say. My father has been arrested by the police station now, and my mother is the only one left at home. I have to work every day, and sometimes I don't work at all. I can’t take care of you.”

"Liu Haizhong was taken away?" After Zhao Shuya thought for a while, she glared at Liu Guangqi and said, "How did you know? Did you go back today?"

Liu Guangqi had no choice but to tell what happened in the compound this afternoon.

Zhao Shuya was also shocked when she heard that the second aunt was suspected of being a local master.

Liu Guangqi explained: "Daughter-in-law, don't worry. These things are all nonsense told by Xu Damao. You may not know that Xu Damao had a grudge against my father before, and he wants to take this opportunity to take revenge on my father."

Zhao Shuya is not as optimistic as Liu Guangqi.

Because today he saw Xu Damao in the courtyard and watched Xu Damao enter Wang Weidong's office.

It was obvious that Wang Weidong was behind this incident.

Zhao Shuya now knows Wang Weidong very well.

She knew that Wang Weidong would never take action if he was not sure.

In other words, the second aunt's father must be a local master.

The relationship between Zhao Shuya and the second aunt is not good, and she does not care about the life or death of the second aunt.

But this matter could involve Liu Guangqi, and ultimately her.

So Zhao Shuya had to take it seriously.

After finishing the meal, when Liu Guangqi washed the dishes, Zhao Shuya lay on the sofa and looked at Liu Guangqi and said: "Liu Guangqi, you will write a letter to sever ties tomorrow and hand it to our factory, and then write another one and hand it in." Go to the street to do it.”

Hearing this, Liu Guangqi was stunned.

"What kind of severance letter? Who do I want to sever ties with?"

Zhao Shuya said: "Who else could it be? It must be Liu Haizhong and the second aunt."

Liu Guangqi was startled.

"No, daughter-in-law. It's so good, why should I sever ties with them?

Besides, I am the boss of the Liu family. My father and my mother are both old feudal people, and they will definitely leave their family property to me in the future.

Although there is nothing valuable in the house, our house has two rooms.

Besides, I heard that my dad also hid a lot of good things.

Those things will all be mine from now on. If I cut off ties with them now.

Doesn’t that mean there’s nothing left? "

"Are you stupid? Your mother is the daughter of a local master. If word spreads about this, how can you still work in the steel rolling mill in the future?"

Hearing this, Liu Guangqi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's all Xu Damao's nonsense. You must not care."

Zhao Shuya looked at Liu Guangqi and said, "Do you believe what you say? It's not like you don't know that the person standing behind Xu Damao is the senior man of the courtyard. Is there any truth to what he was targeting?"

As soon as these words came out, Liu Guangqi was speechless.

He had the same thought this afternoon, but he just lied to himself and got comfort from his heart.

Now that he heard that Zhao Shuya thought so, the bit of luck in Liu Guangqi's heart suddenly disappeared without a trace?

He just wanted to cut off the relationship with his second aunt and bangs, but he couldn't bear it.

"Daughter-in-law, they are my father and mother. How can I bear to do this?"

"Liu Guangqi, are you stupid? Cutting off ties doesn't mean you have to end it with them, aren't you going to show off?"

Zhao Shuya knew that it was not easy to convince Liu Guangqi, so he decided to attack in a roundabout way.

"Tell your mother. This is just in case. If he really has nothing to do with Tufuzi, wouldn't you just take back the letter of severance?

There is no rule that once the relationship is severed, it cannot be reconciled.

Besides, if your mother is willing to think about you, he will definitely agree with your approach. Is there any loss to him in this matter? "

It has to be said that Zhao Shuya thought very carefully, and even Liu Guangqi could not refute his plan.

Liu Guangqi hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "I will go to my mother tomorrow and tell her about this."

"Okay, okay, this is how it will be settled anyway. If you dare to play tricks on me, see how I deal with you." After Zhao Shuya finished speaking, she turned around and went to sleep.

Liu Guangqi looked at the darkness outside the window and didn't sleep all night.

In the morning, after making breakfast for Zhao Shuya, he sent Zhao Shuya to work, then went to the factory to take a while off, and returned to the courtyard.

Just after entering the courtyard, Liu Guangqi met Xu Damao again.

Xu Damao smiled sinisterly: "Why is Liu Guangqi back again?"

Liu Guangqi felt an inexplicable coldness on his body. He shuddered and said, "Yes, I forgot some things at home yesterday. I will come back to get them today."

"Really?" Xu Damao said nothing more, turned around and left the courtyard.

When Liu Guangqi returned to Liu's house, the second aunt had just finished breakfast.

His second aunt looked particularly happy to see him: "Guangqi, why are you back?" (End of Chapter)
