In 2004, the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month.

In Dongwangzhuang Village, Dongwangzhuang Township, Jinzhou County, Pingyang City, a grand wedding was held. The well-known richest man in Dongwangzhuang Township, Zhao Shangang, who was only 31 years old, married Wang Haiyan, the eldest daughter of Wang Zhu's family in the same village.

On that day, it was snowing from the sky.

On the main street of Dongwangzhuang Village, luxury cars gathered and people were buzzing.

From the home of Wang Haiping, the eldest son of Wang Zhu in the west of the village, to the home of Zhao Shangang in the middle of the village, the streets and alleys totaled more than 150 meters, all covered with a 1.5-meter-wide red carpet.At noon, firecrackers blared, gongs and drums blared, the bride Wang Haiyan, who wore a red traditional wedding dress and covered her head, walked along the red carpet with the groom Zhao Shangang, who was wearing a black suit, without covering the falling snow, just like that in the swirling snowflakes In the midst of the cheers of the crowd, walk into the new gate.

The officiant is the father-in-law of Wang Haifei, the second daughter of Wang Zhu's family. He is worth billions and is the well-known Chairman of Wantong Logistics Group, Su Cheng.

According to people from the local public security department who participated in the wedding banquet at the banquet, they mentioned that when they learned that Chairman Su would be the officiant, some leaders of the county public security bureau suggested that they must report to the Dongwangzhuang Township Police Station on that day. Send more police force, and tell the police station to make sure there is no trouble on that day.

However, the leader scoffed at this proposal, and cursed with a bit of swearing: "What kind of police force are you sending? Who dares to disrupt Zhao Shangang's wedding banquet? Damn it! He is more deterrent than our police!"

This statement is not false.

On the day of Zhao Shan's first wedding, there were a lot of guests, including black and white, political and business celebrities.Especially people from the underworld. People from Jinzhou County, Pingyang City, Zhongzhou City, the provincial capital, and even some Taoist figures from other cities and counties in the whole province came to participate.So the busiest people that day were none other than Tan Jun, Wang Qing, Qian Ming and other key members of Zhao Shangang's gang. The boss, Zhao Shan, had just shared the joy of the wedding, but instead, made every effort to ensure that there would be no troubles that day.

On that day, Zhao Shangang's house, the houses of his neighbors, the houses of Dongwangzhuang village committee, and the auditorium were all filled with banquets.

There are a total of 310 eight tables for male and female banquets, large and small!

In the words of Dongwangzhuang villagers: "On the day Zhao Shan got married, it doesn't matter who it is, as long as you enter the main street of Dongwangzhuang Village, you can eat and drink at any house..."

A sensation in the whole township and even the whole county.

That day.

After the wedding ended and the wedding banquet officially started, Zhao Shangang and Wang Haiyan, the newlyweds, were so tired that their legs were sore. Originally, according to the intention of the wedding director, they picked up more than a dozen tables of the main banquet. It's too much to toast.

But just as Zhao Shan's stubborn temper came up, he took Wang Haiyan with him in a daze, not every table was there, but every house that had a wedding banquet entered to express his thanks to the guests.

Of course, he didn't drink everywhere, otherwise he would have to drink no matter how much he drank.

What is little known is that when the wedding banquet entered the night, Zhao Shangang, who was overwhelmed with alcohol, suddenly had a whim. Accompanied by Wang Qing and Tan Jun, he walked through an alley in the wind and snow to the lotus root field in the south of the village, and then Entering the frozen lotus root field full of dry lotus leaves and stems, I walked to several graves.

It is the ancestral grave of Zhao Shangang's family.

His family in Dongwangzhuang Village is a group of immigrant households who have not been born for four generations, and the population is not prosperous, and the scale of the ancestral grave is very small.

In the snow, Zhao Shangang, in a suit and leather shoes, knelt in front of his father's grave and said with a smile: "Father, my son kowtowed to you... The family is doing well now. The whole village, the whole township, belongs to our family. Qian, my mother’s madness has been cured a long time ago. As you know, she has been in good health in the past few years. Shan Qiang works in a state-owned enterprise and has become a small leader and a girlfriend. I thought about it Let him do the wedding next year. Oh, yes, today is my big wedding day. My wife is Haiyan, the eldest daughter of Wang Zhu's family. You probably still have some impressions? They are all honest and kind people , Haiyan is better, capable, and very filial, oh yes, she is pregnant, two months! It's twins... I don't know if it's a boy or a girl, anyway, it doesn't matter what it is, I don't care much, thinking about it Let Haiyan have a few more children, and the people of our old Zhao family will flourish from me. No way, Shan Qiang works in a state-owned enterprise. According to the family planning policy, he can only have one child, not for the sake of having more children , I lost my job. Don’t blame me, it’s not that I don’t take him with me, but I feel that no matter how much money I make here, it’s not safe. Although the power plant is a state-owned enterprise, several leaders there also give My face, he has a stable job there, an iron rice bowl, relaxed, and can often take care of my mother..."

Zhao Shan had just lit a pack of cigarettes in front of the grave, and he lit one himself. He didn't think it was cold, so he just sat down on the ground and babbled endlessly.

Far away, near the village.

Tan Jun and Wang Qing suddenly felt a little sour watching this scene.

They know that Zhao Shangang has not been easy all these years!

But today is his big wedding day, and the wedding banquet is almost over, if we can't find the bridegroom in a while, how inappropriate is it to call him again?

But Zhao Shangang had already explained before that they should not be disturbed, and they could not go over to persuade them.

After the two discussed it, they simply called Qian Ming.

After receiving the call, Qian Ming thought about it, and it seemed inappropriate for him to call this matter now—everyone knew Zhao Shangang's character, and he didn't want to be disturbed, so who could, who would dare to disturb him?After thinking about it for a while, Qian Ming only got the table of the most distinguished guests upstairs in Zhao Shangang's house, gave Su Chunfeng a wink to let him come out, and then told Su Chunfeng about the matter, saying: "Master, you can only call him came back."

"Okay, I'll go." Su Chunfeng didn't hesitate, nodded in response, and walked out.

field.

Zhao Shan just unscrewed a bottle of wine he had brought, and poured it down in front of his father's grave without any haste, then lighted a cigarette without any haste, as if he was drunk, and babbled endlessly From these years, my own experience.Sensing someone approaching, Zhao Shangang did not turn his head, and said coldly: "I understand in my heart, I will go back in a while! I told me to be quiet for a while! Go away..."

Su Chunfeng snorted lightly, and said, "You, Zhao Shangang, are really a fool."

"Chunfeng?" Zhao Shangang suddenly turned his head, his eyes were red, and he smiled wryly, "I'm sorry, I suddenly feel a little panicked, so, just come here..."

"I know." Su Chunfeng squatted down, looked at Zhao Shangang, and said, "But today is the day of the big wedding, and the wedding banquet is about to end. Let's not talk about other guests. After a while, the person who sent the bride to the relatives has had dinner. When they leave, The bridegroom is not present to send off relatives and friends. What do you say? Yes, with your current wealth, status and fame, no one dares to express dissatisfaction with you. We have a lot of guests...but we can't do things like this, can we?"

Zhao Shangang lowered his head with a wry smile, rolled his eyelids hard to hold back the tears that almost flowed out, and said: "Chunfeng, I'm getting married today, is it grand enough? Is it bright enough?"

"No need to say, there is no second one in the whole county."

"My mother must be very happy, and Haiyan's parents are also happy. I have given them a face."

"Yes, it's too long."

"But I've been so tired for so many years." Zhao Shangang raised his hand to wipe away the tears that he couldn't hold back, and said with some confusion: "I came back from the toast today, and I suddenly felt that my life was at the end. I'm married, and I'm going to be a father in a few months... Tell me, should I take a rest?"

Su Chunfeng said with a smile: "Come on, you have to educate your own children, and the task is still very difficult. You have read a lot of books, and you should understand that money cannot solve all problems."

"Oh, yes, raising a child is a big deal." Zhao Shangang nodded.

"Don't let the child's future be poked at the spine!" Su Chunfeng looked at Zhao Shangang, and said, "You have tried your best, and you have tried your best to be kind to others... Now society seems to be an era of laughing at the poor and not laughing at prostitutes, but, No matter how hard you try, if you go this way, you will not even think about gaining a good reputation today. So, what you have to do in the future is to really clean up yourself a little bit, for the sake of your children."

Zhao Shangang thought about it for a long time, then grinned and said, "Yes, this is also a big deal."

"Okay, go back."

"Go, go back!"

Just as Zhao Shan got up, he patted his buttocks and followed Su Chunfeng towards the village.When he walked to the side of the road, he said to Tan Jun: "Junzi, you have good legs and feet, quickly run back and get me a prepared suit, this suit is dirty, I have to change it before going back, oh yes , Let someone drive a car to the alley, I have to get in the car to change clothes, it’s so cold, I can’t just change clothes on the street, it’s not good for people to see.”

"Okay!" Tan Jun turned around happily and ran away.

Zhao Shangang waved his hand again.

Wang Qing smiled and left quickly.

As Zhao Shangang walked slowly, he said, "Chunfeng, I've heard something about Qimen Jianghu, if you need it, please say hello."

"Yes." Su Chunfeng nodded.

"Qian Ming...you can take it away." Zhao Shangang said seriously, "He can help some of your warlocks with spells and fighting skills, but I am powerless."

Su Chunfeng smiled: "He told you to say it?"

"Ah."

"Let him rest assured that An Sheng will stay by your side." Su Chunfeng waved his hand and said, "Shan Gang, although I know that you have good intentions and have no other wrong thoughts, I still want to tell you that in the future Try not to inquire about things in the Qimen Jianghu, no matter what happens to me in the Jianghu, if I don’t speak up, you must not help me on your own initiative... You can’t get involved in my affairs, it’s very dangerous.”

Zhao Shangang didn't speak.

"Did you hear that?" Su Chunfeng scolded with a frown.

"I heard."

"Live a good life..." Su Chunfeng patted Zhao Shangang on the shoulder and said, "Everyone has their difficulties and helplessness. Shan Gang, I accept your wish."

"Um."
