The next day, just after dawn, there was a noise coming from the next room.
Tian Mi immediately opened his eyes, rolled around lazily on the bed, and then stood up refreshed.
In fact, coming to this society has its benefits, such as going to bed early and getting up early.
She quickly tidied herself and made her bed before going to the kitchen to help Aunt Cuilan make breakfast.
"Are you going out again today?" At the dinner table, the whole family gathered together for breakfast. Aunt Cuilan filled a bowl of thick white rice porridge for Tian Mi and gave her a salted duck egg, and asked in a loving tone.
Because the Chen family had a son who was an officer, they had spent a lot of money and used many favors over the years to arrange for all the children in the family to work as workers. The worst job they could do was as a temporary worker, so they lived a pretty good life.
But good meals like white rice, white flour and salted duck eggs are only available a few times a month, and that's because relatives come to visit.
Of course, not every relative receives such treatment.
The main thing is that although Mi Yatou is young, she is a particular girl. During the two days she stayed at home, she was treated to either snacks or delicious seafood every day, which made the children look better.
It's all mutual between people. The other party is generous, and the Chen family is not stingy, so they simply upgraded the quality of the food for the next two days.
Tian Mi was cracking salted duck eggs. The salted duck eggs of that era were different from those of later generations. The eggs were laid by Aunt Cuilan's own ducks. Aunt Cuilan had a secret recipe, and every salted duck egg yolk was red and juicy. The taste was simply amazing.
She especially liked to put all the egg yolks into the porridge bowl and eat it with the porridge. Hearing this, she nodded and said, "I have to go out today too." If she handled it well, she could go home tomorrow.
But since this matter was still uncertain, she didn't say anything.
After dinner, Tian Mi carried a small backpack, got on the bus, and went to the town.
Today is the day when Liu Shu has a tryst with his lover.
In the original book, unless there were special circumstances, this person would always choose Tuesday.
Because the girl has a family, she can only come to the county town on Tuesdays.
Tian Mi was not clear about the woman's situation, but the fact that Liu Shu had someone else outside was known to the Liu family.
Liu Xiangdong's mother, Liu Shu's wife, had long been accustomed to it. She was used to being beaten, and was also nailed to her husband's absurd theory that "there is no capable man without several women."
She would not blame other women, nor would she blame her husband. She would only blame herself for not being able to please the man's heart, and then she would try her best to do better in a humble manner.
Even being so humble was not enough. After her original self married into the family, she brainwashed her into becoming another her.
Thinking of this, Tian Mi felt angry. She didn't sympathize with Liu Xiangdong's mother at all, but her original body was innocent, so she must succeed in what she was going to do today!
"We're at the station, everyone get off!" The conductor's loud voice woke Tian Mi up. She immediately stood up and got off the bus along with the crowd.
I rushed towards my destination with full energy and didn't even notice that I didn't feel carsick this time.
I didn't expect that I had walked a short distance when I saw a group of people rushing towards the main street of the town, shouting ".Slut or something."
Tian Mi didn't expect such a coincidence, so she followed. It wasn't that she was interested in other people's romantic affairs, but going to Liu's house was also in this direction.
This was the first time Tian Mi had done something like this, and even though he had been thinking it over and over again over the past two days, he still couldn't help but worry about what he might not do well.
She had to be absolutely sure that nothing would go wrong and no one would know that she was the one who pried this information out.
Otherwise, given Liu Xiangdong's penny-pinching personality, he would definitely seek revenge if he destroyed their father and son's political career.
"Bang!" Just when Tian Mi was thinking deeply, someone hit her shoulder hard from behind.
She gasped in pain, covering her shoulder and angrily looking for the person who hit her.
It was also at this moment that she realized that she had unexpectedly followed the flow of people to a scene of fighting, killing and raping sluts.
Withdrawing from his own spiritual world, the noisy noises from the outside world poured into Tian Mi's mind without any warning.
It was too noisy. She frowned subconsciously and raised her leg to leave.
But at this moment, her ears picked out a few words that made her confused from the noisy voices.
"Hey, Director Liu is such a decent person on weekdays, but he is actually having an affair."
"Bah! What Director Liu? He is so shameless that he has an affair with another woman. He is a slut. Just wait for the labor camp."
"I think the Liu family will definitely fall. I wonder who is responsible for this."
"The Liu family is finished. I remember that they have a son who works as a buyer at the supply and marketing cooperative, right?"
"Hey, I guess I can't do it for a few days."
Although this statement was ambiguous, those who should understand it understood that once Liu Shu was completely labeled, their family would be classified into the five black categories.
Unless Liu Xiangdong published an announcement in the newspaper to sever his relationship with Liu Shu, he would definitely be fired.
The chaotic words seemed to have their own consciousness and kept drilling into Tian Mi's mind. He was completely confused.
At first she thought it was someone with the same name, but after listening carefully for a while she was sure that it was indeed the Liu Shu she knew.
Perhaps she was too surprised, or perhaps she felt a surge of strength from somewhere, but she quickly pushed through the crowd and stood at the front, ignoring the complaints of others.
When Tian Mi saw clearly the person kneeling in the middle of the crowd, disheveled, with his head lowered and a sign hanging around his neck, his eyes hidden under his scarf widened.
How can it be
Is it really Liu Shu? !
In the original body's memory, he had met Liu Shu several times when he came to the grain station with his parents to pay grain.
But at this moment, he looked completely devoid of his previous high spirits and was barely the same person. This showed how much of a blow this incident had dealt him.
Although it was unclear which Bodhisattva did the good deed, it did not stop Tian Mi from gloating over the misfortune with everyone else.
Of course, she did not get carried away. While watching the show, she did not forget to hide in the crowd and look for Liu Xiangdong.
I searched for a long time but couldn't find anyone.
Tian Mi didn't dare to stay too long. Firstly, he was worried about being found by Liu Xiangdong, and secondly, he was worried about the gold.
If Liu Shu had an accident ahead of time, even for his own future, Liu Xiangdong would most likely use the box of gold to save him.
He wanted Liu Shu to escape legal sanctions and continue to contribute to Liu Xiangdong's political career.
Haha. Dreaming.
Tian Mi decided to use his good character of taking advantage of his illness to kill him and transfer the box of gold away.
Thinking of this, she pulled her triangular scarf and slowly walked out of the crowd.
Then he hunched over, put his hands into his sleeves, and left quickly.
Not to mention, with that figure and the patched old jacket, she looks like a farm lady.
Except for the main street, most of the other houses in the town are self-built houses with separate entrances.
Tian Mi didn’t know the exact location of the Liu family. If it were in the past, she would have to ask someone, and there might be witnesses left.
But this time the Bodhisattva helped. As long as she went to the approximate location, she could see groups of people discussing the Liu family's affairs while walking hurriedly towards the southeast.
Seeing this, Tian Mi naturally blended into the crowd, followed by a group of aunts wearing triangular scarves, and went to Liu's house openly.
The Liu family’s house is also a typical tiled house.
But their house is obviously much bigger than other people's, and the bricks and tiles are very new, so it must have been renovated not long ago.
"The Liu family's tiled house is so beautiful. I think we should check whether their family assets are clean. This house is not cheap."
"It's only been renovated a few months ago, how can it not be beautiful? I heard that it was specially renovated for his son to get married."
"If you ask me, none of the officials are good people."
"You can't say that. There are still good people."
“.”
Tian Mi stood in the crowd and looked around.
The Liu family's house was in chaos, and the entrance was surrounded by people like an iron barrel.
Whether I was once feared or envied, now it is all gone.
Once they fell, some radical people not only cursed them, but also threw feces at the Liu family.
In the entire Liu family, only Liu Shu's wife was huddled in the crowd and shivering. Tian Mi did not see Liu Xiangdong, and her heart could not help but skip a beat.
He didn't care about the time and hurriedly left the crowd and found the fish pond behind Liu's house.
This place is located between the north and the south. As mentioned before, it is a typical land of fish and rice.
If the family conditions are good and the geographical location permits, they will dig a fish pond behind the house and raise some fish. Whether they sell the fish or eat them at the end of the year, it is considered a harvest.
The Liu family’s fish pond doesn’t look anything special. Its length and width are almost the same, and it is approximately thirty square meters.
If Tian Mi had not read the original book, he would never have imagined that someone would hide a box of gold in it and keep it there for decades.
Tian Mi squatted in the dry and dense reeds and observed for more than ten minutes. After making sure that there was really no one here, he took off his thick clothes and went into the water.
As soon as she entered the water, she noticed something was different.
The Liu family’s fish pond is very deep. The depth of a normal family’s fish pond is about two meters at most, but the current depth is at least four or five meters.
This realization made Tian Mi feel at ease.
She opened her eyes wide and searched the entire fish pond.
Maybe it was because it had been left there for too long, but Tian Mi walked around the mud in the fish pond and found nothing.
She floated to the edge of the fish pond without giving up, broke off a reed, and dived again.
This time, after she poked and pulled, she finally hit the hard object near the middle.
Got it!
The thing was very heavy. Tian Mi gritted his teeth and exerted all his strength to finally pull out the box that had sunk into the mud.
Water has buoyancy, and after she got out of the mud, she didn't feel particularly heavy.
After dragging the box to the edge of the fish pond and placing it there, Tian Mi returned to the same place and continued exploring, demonstrating his true ability to leave no trace.
However, this time, she searched the entire fish pond thoroughly but still couldn't find the second box.
After making sure that the Liu family had not left any capital to turn things around, Tian Mi floated up with the box contentedly.
Once out of the fish pond, the weight of the box became apparent.
It was about forty or fifty kilograms, heavier than she had guessed.
Tian Mi was not sure how much of the weight the box occupied, but now was not the time to study it carefully. She carried the box to the reeds with great effort, endured the cold, and carefully destroyed the footprints left behind before she curled up in the reeds to change her clothes.
Now that she has experience, or perhaps her physical condition is slowly changing, Tian Mi can clearly feel that she is becoming more and more resistant to cold.
This change came unexpectedly, as if she could suddenly breathe and see in water.
Quickly packing herself up, she pried open the box with the axe she brought with her.
What caught my eye was the pile of small yellow croakers and gold bars.
In his previous life, Tian Mi was quite rich, of course, it was all given by his parents.
Although he is not a wealthy man, his net worth is still worth tens of millions.
However, the sudden sight of so much gold still stunned Tian Mi.
How much does this cost
According to the current gold price, even if it is only 30 kilograms, it would cost hundreds of thousands.
Sent!
Get rich!
The poor man Tian Mi was very happy and smiled.
Even if you don't own it, it's still a joy to look at its golden color.
She quickly put all the gold into her bag.
After packing the last piece of small yellow croaker, she checked the box again to make sure there was nothing left inside before throwing the empty box back into the fish pond.
She was even more proud in her heart. As long as she thought of the angry look on Liu's face when he touched the empty box, she would be happy for the whole year, and all the frustration in her heart was swept away.
Carrying dozens of kilograms of gold, Tian Mi walked briskly.
I don't know when someone said that even a delicate girl can walk very fast when holding 100 kilograms of 100-dollar bills.
Tian Mi didn't believe it before, but now, when she was holding about 40 kilograms of gold, she really felt full of energy and didn't feel tired at all.
She walked happily along the narrow path with her head down. When she reached a narrow alley, she suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps.
Tian Mi's scalp tightened, he looked around, then immediately hugged his bag tightly and quickly got into a haystack not far away.
Less than half a minute after drilling, an unexpected sound was heard:
"Brother Dong, what should we do? Damn it, if I find out which grandson is responsible for this, I will skin him alive."
"That's right, Brother Dong, what do you think we should do? We definitely can't let Uncle be labeled a bad guy like this."
"Dawei is right, Dong Ge, you have to think of a solution."
"Do you think it was Tian Hongxing who did it? Hasn't he been investigating his loser son's affairs everywhere these past few days?"
"No way?"
"Brother Dong, please say something."
If Liu Xiangdong looked gentle and amiable before, he had turned into a gloomy and cold person in just half a day.
He didn't say anything. Even though his former subordinates obviously didn't respect him that much, he didn't show anything on his face. He just took a few deep puffs of his cigarette before saying coldly, "It's not Tian Hongxing. He doesn't have that much power."
They know their own business well. The Liu family has people behind them, so things like adultery won't make the situation so bad.
"If it's not the Tian family, then who else could it be? Fuck, are we still going to look for my sister-in-law?"
Liu Xiangdong leaned against the wall, raised his head and exhaled another puff of cigarette: "Look for him. My dad is fine. I can get him out. Go find him and control him for me. We can't let the Tian family make a big fuss at this time."
The younger brothers looked at each other, and the young man named Dawei hesitated: "What if we find our sister-in-law and she makes a scene?"
"Then tie up. If you are still making trouble, you will be good at a few meals." The man tone was indifferent, as if he was just a cat and dog in his mouth, not the one he had crazy about asking for marriage.
As soon as these words came out, the younger brothers felt their scalps tingling, especially the two who had their minds wandering a little. They immediately restrained their thoughts, at least on the surface.
Brother Dong is so cruel to his sister-in-law who he has taken so much care of, let alone people like them.
No one is a fool. After following Liu Xiangdong for a few years, everyone knows the cruelty beneath his gentle appearance.
Hiding in the haystack, after listening to just two sentences, Tian Mi suspected that Liu Xiangdong's method was the box of gold.
She was so proud that she grinned silently, and at the same time she did not forget to put her hands together, pretending to sincerely thank the kind Bodhisattva for helping her again.
But her good mood didn't last long, and she was so angry at his next words that she gritted her teeth.
Very good, scum is indeed scum.
It seems that taking away the gold alone cannot relieve her hatred.
Doesn't he like to beat people? It doesn't hurt unless the fist falls on her body. Today, she will enforce justice on behalf of the heaven.
Thinking of this, Tian Mi held her breath and paid attention to the movements outside. When everyone had left and only Liu Xiangdong was left, she touched the sack.
"A-choo!" More than 2,000 kilometers away, in a conference room, the most handsome man among a group of officers suddenly sneezed.
Zhou Jianshe raised his eyebrows: "Is this a cold? Or is someone talking about it?"
"Wow! Even a tough guy can catch a cold?" An officer laughed and joked.
"Hurry, hurry, go to the clinic to get an injection. The nurses have complained to me that it is too difficult to see our Regiment Lou." Another young officer laughed and joked.
Lou Luhui seemed not to hear the teasing and joking of the crowd, and his eyebrows did not even move.
After the meeting, he had time to think about Tian Mi.
The matter that I asked the old squad leader to do before should have been resolved, but I don’t know what happened to that sweet and soft girl. Can she go home with peace of mind
I'd better give you another call later.
"By the way, Old Lou, were you the one who helped with my sister-in-law's matter?" Chen Gang tightened the pen, put it in his shirt pocket, closed the notebook, stood up and was about to leave when he suddenly remembered this and turned around to ask.
God knows, he called an acquaintance in the county town yesterday and asked for help. Unexpectedly, he received a reply this morning saying that the problem had been resolved.
Chen Gang thought about it and felt that it was very likely Lao Lou.
Lou Luhui did not deny it, but when he mentioned the girl, he couldn't help but think of the phrase 'male bodhisattva', and his ears began to burn again, but he tried to downplay it on his face: "It just so happens that someone I know is there."
Hearing this, Chen Gang felt a little complicated. As his sister-in-law's family member, he was naturally satisfied with Lao Lou's performance. But what if his sister-in-law didn't like Lao Lou, who was a bit of an icy person
"What? What are you two whispering about?" Someone came over, put his arm around Chen Gang's shoulders, and asked with a smile.
As for why he didn't hook Lou Lu back, the reason was simple: it was too high and it was difficult to hook it.
Zhou Jianshe also came over. He knew the inside story and joked with a smile: "Old Lou and Old Chen are going to be brothers-in-law."
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
Lou Lu is back!
Many people wanted to be his matchmaker and bring talented people to their family, but he didn't like any of them.
Now I am going to become a brother-in-law with Political Commissar Chen
How beautiful is that girl
Men are visual animals, even officers.
Some of the smart ones immediately got angry and shouted at Chen Gang: "Old Chen, this is your fault. You have a sister-in-law, why don't you introduce her to us?"
"Yes, isn't my sister-in-law very beautiful?"
"We are both single, Lao Chen, you can't be partial to one over the other." "That's right, what does your sister-in-law look like? Do you have a photo? Hurry up and show it to everyone. Since we want to see each other, we don't mind queuing up."
"Yes, Lao Chen, we have a group of bachelors."
Zhou Jianshe didn't expect that things would turn out like this just because of his bad mouth. At this moment, he felt a chill on the back of his neck. He knew what was going on without turning his head. He was sure that if he didn't resolve it, the possibility of him getting beaten was as high as one thousand percent.
So, driven by his desire to survive, he suddenly had an idea and shouted to the group of hungry wolves: "I've seen the photo!"
Sure enough, this voice instantly attracted everyone's attention.
Zhou Jianshe did not keep them in suspense. Before they could speak again, he coughed and said, "Using Sister Tian's words, she looks very much like her."
He didn't lie, that's what Mrs. Tian told him.
“.”
After a dozen seconds of silence, someone spoke up first: "Well, Old Lou has good vision. Well, you guys chat. I have another task to do."
"Oh, if you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten. I still have to lead a team to patrol the village."
"I also."
“.”
In just a few seconds, all the officers in the room were evacuated, so fast that it was almost as fast as an emergency assembly.
Chen Gang slammed the table in anger: "What do you mean, you bastards? My wife is very beautiful!"
Lou Lu returns.
Weekly construction.
