Self-cultivation migrant workers

Du Lijun's home does not live in a commercial building, but in a street with a typical Mingzhu old-fashioned alley style. His home is on the outermost side of the street, divided into a front hall and a backyard. The front hall was remodeled by Du Lijun. For a street frontage, that is, his small jade shop, passing through the small shop is the backyard where his family lives daily.

The small shop was remodeled from the front hall. The area is small, but the location is good. Outside this alley is Mount Everest Street. There is a lot of traffic and traffic. The alley where Du Lijun's house is located is surrounded by high-rise buildings around , quite a different style, this kind of old-fashioned alleys and courtyards often attract many passing tourists to stop and observe.

The shop is temporarily closed for business, the gate is closed, but the rolling gate is not lowered, which proves that there should be someone in Du Lijun's family. If Ye Feng wants to enter the backyard to find Du Lijun's lover, he has to enter through this shop.

After knocking on the door for a long time, a woman finally opened the door from the inside. This woman is the lover of the foreman Du Lijun.

Ye Feng reported his identity and briefly exchanged a few words with the woman.

Entering the store, there is a row of glass counters in the front hall, and there are some jades that Ye Feng can't name on the counters, and there is a small door around the counter, and the woman walks through the door with Ye Feng. In a small courtyard room.

This small courtyard is small in size, but it is very clean. There are flowers and plants on both sides of the courtyard. There is a main room, two side rooms, and a kitchen on one side. The corner of the courtyard is a bathroom. This is Du Lijun's. Home.

The woman led Ye Feng into the house, poured Ye Feng a glass of water, dug out a pack of cigarettes from the cabinet, opened it, took out one, handed it to Ye Feng, found the lighter and wanted to light it for him, But it didn't hit after two hits.

The woman looked at Ye Feng, a little at a loss.

Ye Feng took the lighter, lit the cigarette, looked at Du Lijun's simple home, and then looked at Du Lijun's lover who seemed a little absent-minded because of the sudden loss of her husband, and suddenly felt an inexplicable sourness in his heart.

Living in a big city, running this small shop that may not make much money at all, may not be very poor, but definitely not very rich. Ordinary people in big cities may have a much better quality of life, but In terms of the taste of life, it may not be as comfortable as the people in his hometown, Shangougou.

A life that is more than enough than what is more than enough, if you can live a flat and smooth life, occasionally embellishing the love and hatred of small people in ordinary days, it is another kind of fulfillment in life, but it is a pity that Du Lijun's Sudden death immediately caused this ordinary happiness to collapse.

Du Lijun's lover is Zhao Caiping, who is in her forties. She used to be a worker at the Pearl TV Factory, and her health is not very good. I was admitted to a key high school, and now I am facing the intense study of the college entrance examination.

The key high school for the twin daughters is a full-time boarding school, and the management is extremely strict. The two daughters can only go home once at the end of each month.

After Du Lijun's accident, Zhao Caiping did not dare to tell her two daughters, fearing that it would affect her daughter's college entrance examination, so she endured great pain in silence.

For Zhao Caiping, Du Lijun is the pillar of the family, her parents-in-law died young, her own parents are old and sick, and her only younger brother is unlearned and incompetent, always causing trouble, and now he was arrested for a hit-and-run crime Speaking of which, she herself is not in good health, and she keeps a house all the year round. It was only two years ago when Du Lijun opened a small jade shop that she was able to make a living.

Their family's conditions are not very good, but they are definitely not bad. In addition, Du Lijun's mentality has gradually stabilized in the past few years. He has given up his obsession with gambling stones and hunting for jade, and opened a small shop with his own duties. His two daughters are also smart and obedient. , the academic performance is very good, and the family life is considered warm and harmonious.

Who would have expected that Du Lijun would have passed away in his forties suddenly, and even his body could not be found.

Zhao Caiping felt that she had collapsed, as if a thunderbolt from the blue sky had suddenly struck their home, and instantly shattered the previous warmth and harmony into pieces.

People live in this world, and they must endure all kinds of suffering, but when this kind of suffering really falls on themselves, how many people can really bear it.

Looking at the young man in front of her who claimed to be a worker of her husband's engineering team, Zhao Caiping actually didn't have much thought about entertaining him, but she was embarrassed to just drive him away like this.

Ye Feng actually didn't know what to say, he came here to balance the guilt he felt towards Mr. Du, but when he saw this haggard sister-in-law, the guilt in his heart, Instead, it went deeper.

"Sister-in-law, Brother Du is usually very kind to me. He is a good man. I came to see you today, but I came here in a hurry. I came here without buying anything. This time I mainly came to identify the door. When I have time, I will I come to see you often, sister-in-law, if you have any difficulties, just tell me, and I will try my best to help you."

Zhao Caiping cheered up and said with a smile: "Brother, you don't have to be so polite. Your name is Ye Feng, right? I used to hear Li Jun talking about you. He said that you are a good person and an honest person. You have suffered a lot. Later, someone from the company spoke up and fired you, and he blamed himself during that time, always saying that he was a little sorry for you, but good people have good rewards, and you finally survived."

Ye Feng knew that she was referring to the fact that he was wrongly imprisoned by Liu Yong, and said: "Yes sister-in-law, I was really hard at that time. Brother Du also endured a lot of pressure because of my affairs, but he himself I have always trusted me, and I am very grateful to him for this, so something happened to him, as a subordinate who has followed him for many years, as his brother, I must come to see you, or that sentence, if If my sister-in-law needs my help, just say, I will leave my mobile phone number to you, sister-in-law."

"Actually, I don't have any major difficulties, but I'm not in a good mood. I'm worried about my two daughters, and I'm a woman. I received a call from Zhengyang Company yesterday, asking me to go to the headquarters of Zhengyang Company to deal with Li Jun's death the day after tomorrow. The issue of compensation, and I have to bring my two daughters, saying that if I want to get the compensation, all the immediate family members of the deceased must go and sign. I originally wanted to keep the matter of Lijun from the two girls Yes, after all they are about to take the college entrance examination, I am afraid that when the two of them know the truth, it will affect their studies, I believe that if Lijun knows, he does not want to see this situation."

Ye Feng pondered for a while, and said: "Sister-in-law, how about this, don't tell the child about Du Ge for the time being, I will go to Zhengyang Company, help you find the person in charge of Zhengyang Company, and explain your situation Explain to them that special circumstances are treated specially, and see if you can go alone."

Zhao Caiping frowned and said, "This, can it work?"

Ye Feng thought in his heart, with his thoughts, this would definitely work, but he couldn't be so direct with Zhao Caiping, and said immediately: "For such a big matter, Zhengyang Company also hopes to settle the matter as soon as possible, and leave this matter to me. , should be fine."

"Okay, then I would like to thank you, Brother Ye. I have to trouble you to run for me. I am a woman, and I really don't know how to deal with this kind of thing."

After that, Ye Feng and Zhao Caiping chatted a few more words. Ye Feng mainly learned about Du Lijun's family situation, especially when he heard that Du Lijun likes to gamble on stones and jade, he was a little surprised. After all, Du Lijun looked more like a Foremen, not elegant collectors.

Before saying goodbye, Ye Feng and Zhao Caiping exchanged mobile phone numbers, and when they came to the jade shop in the front hall, Ye Feng asked again: "Sister-in-law, when do you plan to open this jade shop again?"

Zhao Caiping sighed, and said: "No, I plan to sell all these jades in the next two days, even if I can't sell them at a high price, I will accept it. Lijun is gone, and it is impossible for me alone Keep this store going, and I'm not afraid of your joke, brother Ye. I have a younger brother who killed two elderly people in a car accident some time ago. The family members of the deceased demanded more than 400 million yuan in compensation. In the end, the court ruled that they should pay more than 230 million yuan in compensation , otherwise people will sue my unbelievable brother and go to jail. When Lijun was alive, he had already paid 200 million yuan to others, and there were more than 30 yuan left. If it is dealt with, it is impossible to have that money to compensate others, and these jades are actually not very valuable, even if they are all disposed of, it may not be enough to compensate others."

After saying these words, Zhao Caiping sighed for a while. The real economic problem is indeed one of her biggest mental burdens at the moment.

Ye Feng looked at the jade stones under those glass cabinets. To be honest, he has no interest in them, nor does he have any hobbies for collecting them, but at this moment, his only idea is to buy all these jade stones, which is also his Compensation for Du Lijun's wife and children.

Although he doesn't have that money now, he can ask Gu Nian to help him pay in advance.

He must have bought these jade stones.
