Two figures appeared on the street corner in late winter. If someone noticed, they would find that these two people were the so-called "cadres" who were just mentioned to be investigating the power line accident.
The man in the hat changed his serious expression and reported to the squinting old man Song with a smile.
"I have leaked the news as you instructed."
Another man also came up and said, "That woman looked very shocked. When we left, we heard that the news had spread throughout the compound."
Old Man Song happily handed a red paper packet to the two younger generations: "It's the New Year, your father and his family are probably busy, here are the New Year's money for you."
The man in the hat happily accepted the paper bag and said, "You are too polite. Uncle Song, if you have any problems in the future, just come to me directly! But that man named Xu Lei is really good. He is so good at lying. He really fooled me."
The commotion just now, the thing about the county party committee’s armed forces department, was all nonsense.
Is there anyone with the surname Xu in the county committee
Maybe yes, maybe no.
However, the county party committee specified that there was no such department as factory affairs office.
Their clarification was half true and half false, but there would be no problem in making the girl's family aware of the situation.
Tsk tsk, that guy named Xu Lei is amazing. He thinks highly of himself and never even thinks twice before he speaks nonsense. If you ask a few more questions, you will find out that there was no such thing as a factory affairs office at that time. Those were all departments that only the factories had. There was only one factory union between state-owned factories.
Old Man Song laughed and said, "This is the kind of ridiculous thing that only people with big eyes and empty minds who only think highly of themselves can do."
You don't have to guess, maybe because he was good-looking, Xu Lei received a lot of compliments when he was a child. Maybe it was just a casual greeting, or maybe it was just a casual remark, but such compliments made him feel flattered.
After graduating from high school, he had to add pinyin to his love letters. I really don't know where he got the confidence to think he is superior to others just because he has a good family background.
Old man Song was humming a little tune. He knew that the police were watching him, but he was honest and no one could find anything on him.
The two guys just now said they were going to check the power lines, which is fine. Recently, there is indeed a group of people checking the lines. It is close to the New Year, and large units are checking power problems. It is normal for someone from above to ask about it.
As for the two people who sneaked in, they won’t be found after this.
Besides, they didn't do anything else. It was the mother of the girl named Sun Mei who insisted on showing off. No one can be blamed for what she showed off.
Old man Song went back home to drink a little wine. In this cold winter, a little wine with peanuts is the way to go. It's so comfortable!
Sun Mei was struck by lightning as if from the blue. The man she loved suddenly fell from the clouds, landing on his face.
Who can tolerate this
She shook her head frantically, not believing it: "How is it possible! Mom, you must have made a mistake! How could Xu Lei be a liar? He said he would take me back to meet his parents!"
She was kept at home by her mother, who had always instilled in her the idea of marrying a good family and helping her brother and her parents. In the past few years, she went on blind dates frequently, hoping to marry into a cadre family. Her mother was not happy with a family with two working parents.
She had finally met her mother's request, but now she was struck by thunder, saying that the person she found was a fake cadre
She couldn't accept it.
"Mom, think about it, how could Xu Lei be a liar? If he was a liar, what would he want from me?"
Sun Mei's eyes were firm: "In the past six months, he has spent more than ten yuan just on snacks for me. If he really cheated me, he wouldn't be able to get back his money."
Sun Mei swore that it was a sure thing. In fact, if Xu Lei had not been so generous, she would have doubted whether this big pie was real. But Xu Lei really spent money and energy on it!
"He also wrote me love letters, at least one a week... Mom, do you think a liar could do this?"
It is undeniable that Sun Mei, even though what she values most is Xu Lei's family background and background, she also places some of her girlish thoughts on Xu Lei.
In this environment where marriage is scheduled after an average of two or three visits, Xu Lei's sweet words in the letter undoubtedly made her heart waver.
What Sun Mei didn't say was that Xu Lei never made any physical advances towards her. Whenever they were together, she would mostly listen to Xu Lei with a look of admiration on her face.
Sun Mei didn't understand what Xu Lei was talking about, such as the general situation and the direction of the country. But she felt from the bottom of her heart that Xu Lei was one in a hundred... No! A talent that is hard to find even in a thousand or ten thousand miles!
How could all these be false!
It would have been fine if she didn't mention the love letter. As soon as she mentioned it, Su Sanmei became even angrier.
“Shut up!”
She was furious: "How dare you talk about that love letter? Let me ask you, did you show off to your coworkers that you received the love letter? Did you let your coworkers read it? Do you have any shame? You want to let everyone know about such a private thing, right?!"
Before Sun Mei could finish her denial, she heard her mother starting to curse.
"You don't have a brain, do you? If that person is really a cadre, would he be able to write a love letter in pinyin?"
"You have a pig brain!"
…
This is the thing that Su Sanmei can't accept the most in this whole thing.
Ever since the news of Sun Mei being cheated spread quickly in the compound, several of Sun Mei's co-workers also mentioned after the fact that they accidentally saw Pinyin on Sun Mei's love letter.
This is so embarrassing for Su Sanmei!
She didn't dare to look up when she walked outside, for fear of being asked questions to her face.
Su Sanmei's eyes were red with anger, and she slammed the table and yelled at her daughter: "You are really going to bring shame to our entire family!"
She was huffing with anger, and Sun Mei was crying so hard that she almost fainted.
Sun Mei's father finally spoke.
"Okay, stop arguing. The most urgent thing is to find the person. After finding him, we will firmly believe that he deceived Xiaomei and wanted to force her to marry him, but she didn't want to, and he deliberately made up those words to force her to submit."
Of course, there are loopholes in this statement. After all, Su Sanmei has been calling her son-in-law "son-in-law" outside during this period of time, and it doesn't seem like her daughter was being forced at all.
But what can we do
If they don't find it, will they let others laugh at their family for wanting to use their daughter to marry into a rich family, but ended up marrying her to a swindler
That's really like a child looking for his mother - embarrassing for adults!
Old Sun smoked his cigarette puff by puff, his brows full of worry.
"I've told my brother and the others that you shouldn't stay at home for the next few days. Go out and ask around. It's best to find them before the news spreads."
It's only a matter of time before such a shameful thing gets spread.
We must find the person ahead of this.
After scolding her daughter, Su Sanmei also became worried: "How can we find him? How big is a county town? Besides, the person may not be from the county town."
As she spoke, she cursed Sun Mei in a low voice.
If I had known earlier, I should have signed her up to go to the countryside earlier, then this mess wouldn’t have happened!
Now the whole family and their son can no longer hold their heads up. Their son will graduate next year and take over the business, and will have to get married soon. His sister has caused such a mess, what can they do
The whole family was worried and crying.
"Old Sun! Old Sun!"
Sun Mei's father responded.
A familiar co-worker outside opened the door and said, "So you're home. I looked around but couldn't find you."
Sun Mei's father smiled bitterly. Since something happened at home, he simply took a day off today.
Because he couldn't handle things at home, he felt anxious and short of breath at work, and felt that everyone around him was laughing at him behind his back.
"Don't just wait here, go! Your eldest brother said he found the guy named Xu."
"What!?"
Sun Mei's father was both happy and surprised: "So fast!"
The worker said, "That's right. It's just a coincidence. Your brother asked someone for help today, and he ended up asking a young man. What the young man said was true. That Xu Lei was not from the county committee at all. He was just a waiter in a state-owned restaurant."
Su Sanmei's mind was moving rapidly.
waiter
The waiters in state-owned restaurants seem to be pretty good too
Before she could think further, the worker continued, "But that guy is no longer here. I heard he sold his job and now just stays at home and eats his wife's food. He has a wife and a child. The child is quite old this year, and his wife is a teacher."
Living off others!
I have a wife and children!
Sun Mei's family felt like they were falling into an abyss.
Sun Mei's father's eyes went dark and he almost fell to the ground.
The worker looked at him sympathetically and said, "Go quickly. Your brother is already waiting for you at the entrance of the State-owned Hotel."
Sun Mei's father sent the person away, turned his head away and endured it again and again, then slapped Su Sanmei in the face.
"I gave you the house to manage, and you found someone for Mei Zi!"
Su Sanmei got a big slap mark on her face and started crying.
"How can I know this guy is a liar? What does he want? He has a wife and children, but he still pretends to be nice in front of Mei Zi. He has no shame!"
Sun Mei has become a wooden man.
She knelt on the ground in a daze, her mind full of what the man had just said.
Xu Lei has a family, a wife, and children...
She let out a scream and got up, rushing out like a mad woman. She really couldn't understand why someone would lie to her like this.
When Sun Mei's father saw that his daughter had gone crazy, he pulled Su Sanmei and chased after her.
The family of three rushed to the entrance of the restaurant, and his eldest brother had called a few people to wait together.
Sun Mei's eyes revealed a frighteningly bright determination. She ignored everything and grabbed her uncle at the entrance of the restaurant and asked, "Where is Xu Lei? Where is he?"
Uncle Sun Mei: "Meizi, calm down first. We need to discuss what to do when we get there."
For something like this that comes to your doorstep, of course you have to make sure everything is clear before taking any action.
Su Sanmei, who arrived a step late, panted, "What are we discussing? He dared to cheat my family, he should be sent to a labor camp! A dirty guy who has sex with a man! Send him to eat a free meal!"
Uncle Sun Mei frowned, looking down on his sister-in-law who always had no brains.
On the contrary, Sun Mei's father understood it quickly.
It is impossible for Xu Lei to just let it go when he cheated his family. However, if he reports him for having an affair, it is also a question whether Sun Mei will be implicated.
Xu Lei has a wife but he still lies to others, so we have to consider how his wife will react.
Sun Mei's father took a deep breath and said, "Brother, I think so. Let's go over there first and make some noise. At least we should make a fuss and let others know that it was Xu Lei who cheated on my daughter, and it wasn't my Sun Mei who deliberately got close to him."
No matter how the matter is handled in the end, Sun Mei's father's first priority is to cover up his bad reputation. So when he gets there, he has to make a big noise and let Xu Lei admit the crime.
Even if you discuss reconciliation behind closed doors later, this opening paragraph cannot be omitted.
"We'll have to see what his wife thinks. If she wants us to suppress this matter, she must give us Mei Zi some compensation."
Speaking of compensation, Su Sanmei quickly interrupted: "That's right! At least a hundred yuan!"
Their daughter's reputation has been ruined. Besides, she was cheated, so it will be difficult for her to get married in the future. She has to earn back the money she earned from Xu Lei!
Sun Mei's father did not interrupt Su Sanmei's words. He waited until his wife finished shouting before continuing, "Then we'll say if it doesn't work, we'll report it."
That being said, Sun Mei's father felt that it was okay not to report it as long as he could cover up his reputation and get a hundred yuan.
With one hundred yuan, my son will have enough money to marry a wife. As for my daughter, I will send her to the countryside in the spring!
A few people discussed the matter and left Sun Mei, the person involved, aside.
The final word was: "Let's go, the sooner the better, let's get it done today!"
A group of people sandwiched Sun Mei in the middle and took them to the old residential area.
Wang Ying and Xu Shuang were planning on making barbecued meat at home, and the delicious aroma filled the yard.
The person who came to cause trouble could smell it as soon as he walked to the door.
"Damn it! This immoral thing actually eats meat!"
Even more angry!
A group of people broke down the gate of the yard.
He shouted loudly: "Where is Xu Lei? Where is Xu Lei? Tell him to get out here!"
Xu Lei had just returned from delivering food to a few friends and was lounging around at home while Zhang Yun was busy making pancakes.
Xu Dabao hid at the door and poured out the gunpowder from the small firecrackers, then lit them with a stick of incense. The crackling sparks accompanied a little blue light, and he was having a lot of fun.
Suddenly, I saw a group of people rushing in with ferocious looks.
He rushed back into the house.
After seeing Xu Dabao, Sun Mei's little hope was finally gone.
It turns out that Xu Lei really has a wife and children!
The child looks so big now, I'm afraid he has been married for ten years!
"Xu Lei, get out here!"
