"Where are you, girl..." Shen Xinbai was worried.
There is no habit of turning off the machine from time to time, even when she is sleeping or charging, because she is afraid that her boyfriend who checks the post at any time will not find her. The two of them have been dating since junior high school. They are each other's first love. Until now, I have planned to get married next year. Therefore, we always cherish this relationship. The care of this relationship can be described as "cautious".
"Can't get through?" Xiao Yan said.
"Yes, it's off. What's the matter with this girl..." Shen Xinbai said.
"Do you want to send someone to have a look?" Xiao Yan said.
Shen Xinbai is really not used to Xiao Yan's sudden enthusiasm. Especially when she realized that Xiao Yan wanted to reassure her.
"No, she's always good tempered and won't offend anyone at ordinary times. Her parents are ordinary department level cadres and shouldn't get into too difficult roles. Otherwise, I'd better go by myself and you can send him home." Shen Xinbai said.
How does it seem that she is a strong woman, and Xiao Yan is a father who only takes children at home?
"I'll let Secretary Zhou go," Xiao Yan said.
"I can be at home alone," said the baby. "I'm a man! You make me feel useless."
Xiao Yan smiled and said, "can you really be at home alone?"
"Of course," shook, "I can't use water, electricity and gas. I won't open the door for strangers or run around. I'll warm my book in the study when you come back."
If it takes an hour or two, Shen Xinbai doesn't worry. But I don't know if there will be an accident or when I will come back. If it's too late, she's afraid of shaking at home alone.
"Well, you should be good," Xiao Yan said. "If you do well today, I'll take you to the playground at the weekend."
"OK, OK! Keep your word." shook and clapped happily. Shen Xinbai looked at Xiao Yan and was still worried.
"Boys should exercise from an early age," Xiao Yan said. "I have confidence in my son."
"Using your education method to turn my son into a 'mother treasure' sooner or later, won't it waste my good genes?"
Shen Xinbai smiled and cooperated with Xiao Yan's humor. Nodded and said, "OK, listen to you."
It was still a long day at the end of summer. After sending him home, he galloped all the way to the shanty town. It was not completely dark yet. Shen Xinbai uses his memory to find the house Mu Jiuge walked out of. I saw the courtyard door open, and the courtyard looked dilapidated.
"Is anyone at home?" Shen Xinbai asked.
"Who?" came the voice of a middle-aged woman.
Shen Xinbai and Xiao Yan looked at each other. Listening to the sound, it didn't look like there was a problem.
"Is it this one?" Xiao Yan confirmed.
Shen Xinbai carefully recalled the location he saw yesterday and said, "yes, it's this one."
Because she was surprised when she found the figure of Mu Jiuge, she couldn't help looking at the place he went out. When she saw Mu Jiuge yesterday, Mu Jiuge pushed the door out of the yard, so she couldn't remember wrong. A slovenly, very untidy middle-aged woman came out with slippers.
He looked up and down and said, "who are you?"
"We're from the census group," Xiao Yan said. "Let's check how many people there are in your family."
"Just myself!" the woman has a bad attitude.
Shen Xinbai looked at her face carefully and found that the woman was not ugly. Just because middle-aged fat, coupled with a depressed look of disease and worldly weariness, and slovenness, it gives people a bad feeling.
"Elder sister, you see... This time we need to do a basic livelihood survey, such as your family's income and expenditure... But this survey is paid."
Shen Xinbai said, took out his wallet, gave her a twenty, and said, "we also know that the people's time is precious, so if we are willing to cooperate with the investigation, we will give some money as thanks."
"Look... Is it convenient for us to come in and talk? The smell outside is... Ha ha... It doesn't smell very good." Shen Xinbai covered his nose.
Aunt yanked the twenty yuan from Shen Xin's white hand and said unkindly, "OK, come in... What's there to ask..."
Pointing to a courtyard not far away, he said, "their family raises chickens. It tastes like this in winter and summer!"
After entering the room, Shen Xinbai noticed the photos inserted on the wardrobe at the first glance. This wardrobe is an old-fashioned double door wardrobe with mirror door, so it can just clip two rows of photos on two mirrors.
The child in the picture is white and tender, especially beautiful.
"Elder sister, is this your son? He looks so beautiful..." Shen Xinbai said with a smile.
"What's the use of being good-looking? Hum... He's a white eyed wolf who doesn't recognize his mother! He just wants to live a good life. He'll talk to whoever has money..." the woman said.
Shen Xinbai smiles awkwardly. The more he looks down, the more he feels... Familiar!
The picture was only taken when the boy was seven or eight years old, but his appearance had been revealed for the first time. This face... Why is it so like Mu Jiuge?
"Your son is so beautiful. He must be promising now?" Shen Xinbai said with a smile.
"What do you want to ask?" the aunt suddenly became vigilant and said, "if you have something to say, say it and fart it. If you have nothing to say, get out of here immediately!"
Xiao Yan has been standing under the window with his back to the whole room. And Shen Xinbai found that Xiao Yan had been holding his breath and trying to avoid breathing the air here. I didn't want Xiao Yan to suffer too much, so I took out the note in my handbag, asked a few questions about income and expenses, and made some records.
"Elder sister, thank you very much." Shen Xinbai said.
Seeing that Shen Xinbai was indeed asking questions, and was very professional and taking notes, aunt's previous vigilance was relieved.
"Ouch... I'm... sorry, elder sister. I'm a little thirsty. Can I have some water at your house? You see, we have to go to another house... We've been running all day and haven't stopped." Shen Xinbai said with a smile.
The aunt said, "water is for nothing? Water is not money?"
"I'm really thirsty," Shen Xinbai took out a ten piece of land from his wallet and said, "look, can I buy you a glass of water?"
Fortunately, I have some change in my wallet, otherwise it would be really difficult to do this today.
When aunt saw the money, she quickly grabbed it and turned around to pour water for Shen Xinbai. While she turned around, Shen Xinbai quickly took out a picture on the wardrobe and put it in her handbag. When the woman turned back after pouring water, Shen Xinbai was calmly holding the lock of the bag. Because I just took out my wallet and the woman herself was a little confused, I didn't notice anything strange at all.
Impatiently, Shen Xinbai handed the water cup to Shen Xinbai. Shen Xinbai looked at the stains on the water cup and said with an embarrassed smile: "well... Elder sister, I'm suddenly thirsty again. Let's focus on business first. We're leaving. We have to be busy going to other homes to investigate!"
Then he took Xiao Yan's hand and walked outside the door. I heard my aunt slamming her water glass on the table and said, "what's the matter? I really think I'm rich? Little clerk, bullshit! My son is much richer than you..."
Shen Xinbai listens to her words in his ears. With this picture in his bag, his curiosity is even more prosperous
He trotted all the way out of the yard and quickly returned to the car.
"Drive quickly, don't let her react!" Shen Xinbai said.
"Don't worry," Xiao Yan said, "this kind of woman is not so smart."
On the bus, Shen Xinbai took out the photos to see. How do you think this is what Mu Jiuge looks like? It's just a little tender
"Look, is this portrait like Mu Jiuge?" Shen Xinbai handed the photo to Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan just glanced and said, "like."
"Tut... I want you to look carefully! Don't perfunctory me, look carefully!" Shen Xinbai hurried.
Xiao Yan glanced at her and said, "do you think everyone is as stupid as you?"
Stunned by the disdain in his eyes, Shen Xinbai withdrew his hand and began to look carefully again... Muttered: "it's really Mu Jiuge..."
"If you guessed right, this woman should be mu Jiuge's mother." Xiao Yan said.
"Ah?" Shen Xinbai blurted out in subconscious surprise. But... This surprise is only a flash
Because I think of women's words, recall women's looks, and look at this photo... Really, it's possible! But what did the woman say... What do you mean who has money and who? With Mu Jiuge's character, he will never sell his "hue".
Shen Xinbai looked back at the shantytowns and said, "in fact, this location is very good. It is located in the suburbs and there are only two shantytowns on both sides of the road in the city. It should have been a place for real estate developers to scramble. I don't know why it hasn't been relocated until now. If it is relocated, the life of the people here will be greatly improved."
"This is Xiao's land," Xiao Yan said. "Because it is close to Xiao's old house, I bought it as early as my grandfather was alive. But my uncle doesn't mean to develop it, and I don't recommend developing it."
"Shouldn't it be developed here?" Shen Xinbai said.
Hearing that it was Xiao's land, Shen Xinbai felt some regret. Because now Lu also began to do real estate projects, she originally wanted to recommend this place to Lu Jiayi when she had the opportunity. However, it is no wonder that if it were not for Shaw's land, it would have caused fierce looting by real estate tycoons. It can not be so quiet. Only Xiao had the capital to shoot the land dry.
"Grandpa bought here just to give a quiet environment around the old house," Xiao Yan said, "so there's no need to spend more time here. It's very quiet now."
Shen Xinbai smiled and didn't ask. This is their internal affair. She doesn't have much interest. What she cares about most now is the picture in her hand. What does the person in this picture have to do with the woman who lives in the shanty town? Is it really mother and son?
But with Mu Jiuge's character, he can't be an unfilial person. Now that he is so rich, how can he let his mother live like this?
