The heavens set sail from the courtyard

Chapter 1380 A guilty conscience
Time flies, and we have unknowingly entered the 1990s. The railway compound remains the same, and every household seems to be unchanged, yet there seem to be some changes.

Wang Gang pushed his bicycle out of the house and Peng Yongli ran out and handed him a scarf.

"Honey, put on your scarf. The weather forecast says it will get colder today."

Peng Yongli gently put the scarf around Wang Gang's neck.

Wang Gang smiled and said, "You should be careful at home. The baby is due in two months. I'm on a business trip for a few days. You can stay at my mother's house."

A few years ago, Peng Yongli graduated from university. Under Wang Gang's persuasion, she directly took the postgraduate entrance examination. Later, she chose to stay in school to teach. Now she is a glorious university teacher.

Before being admitted to graduate school, Wang Gang and Peng Yongli held a wedding and officially became husband and wife.

On the wedding day, Wang Gang set up a banquet in the compound and only invited relatives and neighbors. Although it was not grand, it was also lively.

Wang Jianguo and Liu Shufang naturally liked this daughter-in-law very much. When they learned that Peng Yongli was going to take the postgraduate entrance examination, they were very supportive. After all, there was no family in the compound that had a daughter-in-law who was a postgraduate student. The higher Peng Yongli's academic qualifications, the more proud Liu Shufang would be.

"My dad said he would come and take care of me tonight." Peng Yongli said happily, touching her big belly.

"It would be best if your father-in-law came over. My parents live next door anyway. If you have any problems, you can ask your father-in-law to contact them." Wang Gang nodded.

"I know!" Peng Yongli said, "You should be careful when handling cases."

"Yeah." Wang Gang got on the bicycle.

Wang Gang first went to the criminal police team. Now as the captain of the criminal police team, he needs to preside over meetings and assign tasks before going on business trips.

Yes, Wang Gang was promoted. Because he solved countless cases and never gave up studying over the years, Wang Gang was recently appointed as the captain of the Ningyang Criminal Police Team.

The former captain Chen was transferred to the Municipal Bureau and promoted to a higher level.

Although he is the team leader, Wang Gang also has to go on a mission because the criminal police team has been short of people for a long time. Today, he is preparing to go on a business trip to Harbin with Ma Kui to investigate a group of drug dealers.

In order to track down this group of drug dealers, Wang Gang put in a lot of effort and arrested several small leaders. Finally, he found out that the source was in Harbin.

In the train dining car, Ma Kui, wearing a brand new leather jacket and holding a small notebook, reported his work to Wang Gang.

"Uncle Ma, you look very smart in this leather jacket. Was it a gift from your future son-in-law?" Wang Gang joked.

Ma Kui smiled embarrassedly: "Ma Yan bought it for me, saying it was the most popular style this year. Now she only knows how to spend money recklessly."

"After Ma Yan and Wang Xin resigned and started their own business, the business grew bigger and bigger. They must have made a lot of money!" Wang Gang laughed.

"That's not as much as Mingjie makes. He is now the largest clothing wholesaler in Ningyang." Ma Kui said:
"Now that I think about it, I didn't agree with Ma Yan doing business. I was really short-sighted. Now many people in the bureau are thinking of quitting their jobs and going into business!"

Peng Mingjie has made much more money from the clothing business in recent years than he earned from corruption and bribery, and Wang Gang's guidance was naturally involved.

Wang Xin and Ma Yan also joined in and made a lot of money. Now, besides the Wang family, the Ma family is the best off in the compound.

However, Wang Xin and Ma Yan have not yet married. It is not because Ma Kui disagrees, but because Wang Xin wants to wait until Wang Yongge is released before getting married. Calculating the time, Wang Yongge has been in prison for seven or eight years and will soon be released.

"Uncle Ma, Brother Wang, it's really you." At this time, a familiar voice came.

Wang Gang looked back and saw Niu Dali walking towards him from the other end of the dining car.

"Niu Dali." Ma Kui closed the book and said, "What a coincidence, you are going to Harbin too."

Niu Dali smiled and ran to sit next to Wang Gang, saying, "I saw from a distance just now that it looked like you. I didn't expect it to be true."

Wang Gang observed Niu Dali for a while and said, "Dali, where are you making your fortune now? You look good!"

Niu Dali was wearing a branded suit, which was worth several years' salary for an ordinary worker.

"I have stopped collecting slop a long time ago. Now I run a restaurant." Niu Dali said, lifting his clothes proudly.

"It's good to open a restaurant!" Ma Kui said with a smile: "Food is the most important thing for people. Everyone needs to eat."

Niu Dali took out two business cards and handed them to Wang Gang and Ma Kui.

"Uncle Ma, I plan to open a branch in Harbin first, and then spread it throughout the Northeast."

Wang Gang looked at the business card, which said Niu Dali, general manager of Niu's chain restaurant group. "Chain restaurant?" Ma Kui was confused and asked, "What is a chain?"

"Chain catering is a form of commercial organization and business model for catering, which refers to multiple restaurants with the same sign," Wang Gang explained.

Ma Kui suddenly realized: "So, Niu Dali, you opened more than one restaurant!?"

Niu Dali laughed and said, "It's nothing, just a small business. I didn't expect that Brother Wang, a policeman, knows so much about catering."

Wang Gang said: "Chain restaurants are relatively new in China, but they have existed abroad for a long time. The well-known brand KFC is a representative of chain restaurants."

Niu Dali's eyes lit up, and he gave Wang Gang a thumbs up and said, "Brother Wang, you are really knowledgeable."

Wang Gang smiled and said, "Niu Dali, congratulations."

Niu Dali said with a smile: "Brother Wang, Uncle Ma, when my restaurant opens in Ningyang, you must come and try the food."

"Sure, sure." Wang Gang nodded.

Wang Gang actually didn't have much resentment towards Niu Dali. Although this guy was a bit of a bootlicker, as long as he didn't cause any trouble for Wang Gang, he was willing to be his friend.

Moreover, in Wang Gang's opinion, Niu Dali actually has many advantages, such as hard work, adaptability and perseverance. It is not surprising that such a person, who is in the right position, can succeed.

"Uncle Ma, Brother Wang, guess who else I met on the train." Niu Dali said with a smile.

"Who is it?" Ma Kui asked.

"Xiao Yao!" Niu Dali said excitedly.

Wang Gang was stunned, glanced at Niu Dali, and said, "You haven't let go of Yao Yuling yet?"

Wang Gang hasn't seen Yao Yuling since she moved out of the compound. He heard that she had married a long time ago and went to Harbin, and he hasn't seen her contact anyone in all these years.

"I just happened to meet Xiao Yao in the car ahead. She has changed a lot now. Not only is she prettier, but she seems to have made a fortune in business. But when I asked her what business she was in, she refused to tell me." Niu Dali said sadly:
"I heard her child is attending school in Harbin."

Wang Gang and Ma Kui looked at each other and said calmly, "In which car did you see Yao Yuling?"

"It seems to be the third carriage!" Niu Dali said enthusiastically: "I'll take you to find her, and we can all get together."

Niu Dali wanted to use the party as an excuse to get more contact with Yao Yuling.

He hasn't married yet because he can't let go of Yao Yuling.

"Okay, let's go together." Wang Gang stood up and winked at Ma Kui.

Ma Kui understood and put away the notebook and pen.

Niu Dali ran excitedly to the third carriage, but after looking around he couldn't find Yao Yuling.

"Strange, I remember she was in this box?"

Wang Gang glanced around the carriage and asked, "Is Yao Yuling also going to Harbin?"

"Yes! She said she was going back to see her children."

Wang Gang looked outside the carriage. The train was stopping at a passing station and many passengers were getting on and off.

Ma Kui also helped to look for her, and then on the platform, he saw a woman in an orange leather jacket who looked very much like Yao Yuling.

"Is that Yao Yuling?" Ma Kui said, pointing outside the train.

Niu Dali turned around, his eyes lit up, and said, "That's Xiao Yao. Why did she get off the bus early?"

At this time, Yao Yuling turned her head to look at the train, and her eyes met Wang Gang's.

Wang Gang noticed a flash of panic in Yao Yuling's eyes. He turned his head sharply and ran towards the exit.

Wang Gang frowned.
