Chapter 32: Someone inquired about Chen Shimei
Chapter 32 Someone Inquired about Chen Shimei
Liang Xiaonan smiled and said, "You are welcome! I don't know your name yet."
"Cao Yuan." Cao Yuan said respectfully.
Zhang Ming's face turned pale all of a sudden.
Why is this happening? Why did the people he invited show so much respect to Liang Xiaonan after beating him up?
Could it be that Mr. Xie has already taken a fancy to this country girl?
No, from what Cao Yuan said to her, it is clear that they are not familiar with each other.
Cheng Gang was also very surprised. Cao Yuan and Wang Li are said to be Xie Haoyun's two personal bodyguards.
The scene was completely silent, and the group of Yuxian Restaurant who were preparing to teach Liang Xiaonan a lesson, there was no one talking.
Xie Haoyun's people, who dares to mess with them?
Liang Xiaonan heaved a sigh of relief, thanked Cheng Gang first, and then said to Cao Yuan: "Cao Yuan, thank you, I have to leave, it is too late to go home, and my family is in a hurry."
"I'll take you back."
"Need not."
Zhang Ming watched Liang Xiaonan and Cheng Gang walk away, his body softened, his whole body was cold, and he basically saw his end.
He is not worthy to be Mr. Xie's friend, and it seems that he has offended Mr. Xie nine out of ten.
Liang Xiaonan pulled the cart, turned his face to look at the pale Zhang Ming, curled his lips, scoff!
Cheng Gang said: "Xiao Liang, I'll take you to the village with a pickup truck. It's too late. Anyway, it's not safe for a girl to walk at night. It just so happens that I know the way too. I don't need you to come here next time." For delivery, I’ll just call Dasha to pick up the goods.”
Cao Yuan said, "I'll see you off together."
Dasha couldn’t argue, and loaded her cart onto the pickup truck. Originally, she was going to squeeze into Cheng Gang’s car, but Cao Yuan said, “Comrade Xiao Liang, you can sit in my car, I have something to tell you.”
"Okay." Liang Xiaonan got into his car, and Cheng Gang didn't force it. His car was a pickup truck, and the space inside was originally narrow, and Dasha was a big guy. The two of them were already sitting there.
"Thank you for saving Mr. Xie." Cao Yuan told the truth after driving the car.
"Mr. Xie has already given me a lot of money, and everyone does not owe each other."
Liang Xiaonan's voice was very flat. She thanked Cao Yuan for saving the scene just now, but she didn't want to get too involved with them.
"Zhang Ming said you sent the original peaches. Mr. Xie thinks they taste good. Do you still have them at home? If so, please sell me some."
"Okay, wait outside the village later, I'll get it for you."
Going home and passing by the entrance of Nanfeng Town, a white Volga car stopped them. A middle-aged woman stuck her head out of the car window and asked them, "Comrade, is there anyone named Chen Shimei around here?"
Under the streetlight, Liang Xiaonan saw the woman with fashionable curly hair, and a face that was vaguely familiar, but he couldn't remember where he saw it.
Chen Shimei? And someone with that name?
Several people in the car shook their heads, expressing that they didn't know each other. The woman said "thank you" regretfully, and left.
Liang Xiaonan couldn't help but asked Cao Yuan: "Do you know that there is a play called "Bao Gong Guimei"?"
Cao Yuan nodded: "Mr. Xie took us to the theater to hear it. Isn't it a scholar named Chen Shimei who was the number one scholar in high school, who abandoned his first wife and let the princess be the son-in-law? In the end, he was killed by Bao Zheng."
"Yes, just now that woman asked about Chen Shimei, there are people who dare to call her Chen Shimei."
Cao Yuan's usual coffin-like little black face also showed a smile on his face: "Maybe his parents don't go to the theater."
Near Dakeng Village, the car stopped, and Dasha lifted her cart and vat off. Liang Xiaonan said, "Wait a little bit, I'll be right back."
She pulled the cart and walked towards the village for a while, found an opportunity on the side of the road, took out two baskets of peaches from the space, and went to Cao Yuan and the others.
Cheng Gang watched her go back and forth, carrying two baskets of peaches in his hand, one for Cao Yuan and one for himself, so he smiled and said, "I was only in a hurry to ask for fish today, but I forgot to ask you for peaches." Now, how many peaches do you have left, give them to me?"
Liang Xiaonan shook his head: "It's really gone, how many can a wild peach tree bear? These are the last two baskets."
So far, she has only found such a peach tree on the mountain. Although it has been ripened for less than 300 catties, Zhang Ming, Cheng Gang, and Zhou Yan have each taken a basket for a while, and today they will give Cao Yuan and the others one each. Baskets, 5 baskets have already been taken out, more than half of them have gone out, she really doesn't have much left.
If it weren't for Cheng Gang's help today, she would not be willing to give him a basket of peaches just because of the cooperation relationship.
I have to keep a few, feel sorry for my family, and keep them for myself.
Cao Yuan stuffed Liang Xiaonan with 50 yuan and said, "Thank you, Comrade Xiaoliang, and we will meet later."
Liang Xiaonan is not too polite, she'd better go back quickly, people's words are terrible, if people see her dating a strange man, she will be pointed at by others, that's always uncomfortable.
When she pulled the car back home, Grandma Liang was making noodle soup, and Liang Xiaonan gave Grandma Liang the steamed buns and roast beef that Cheng Gang had given her.
"Roasted beef is very expensive, how can you buy such an expensive thing?"
"The manager of Wanghu Building gave it to him. He said that guests have been clamoring for wild fish after eating. He wanted me to catch more fish and send them over."
"It's not easy to catch fish in that pool of water. In the past few days, I heard that people in the village went there to salvage several times, but they didn't catch a single one."
"Grandma, do you know that there is a pond in the mountains? There are fish there, and I will go there to catch them later. I caught crabs there last time."
Grandma Liang has lived in Dakeng Village all her life. Of course she knows about the pond, but she hasn’t been there for a long time. The mountain has been combed countless times by people from several nearby villages, and almost everything that can be eaten has been found long ago. In recent years, wild animals in the mountains have come down from time to time to hurt livestock and people. Except for hunters, other people rarely go to the deep mountains.
"Xiaonan, there are wolves on the mountain. Your father was scratched by wolves. It's too dangerous for you to go there. We have food, so don't risk your life."
"Grandma, what are we left for the poor? Isn't it life? If we don't fight for our lives, what can we fight for?"
These words are uncomfortable, but they are from her heart.
The reason why Liang Xiaonan said this is to give Grandma Liang a vaccination from time to time. It is not easy for them to eat steamed buns and meat with three grandparents.
She sells fish and peaches, and she is also a swordsman in the city. It was she, Liang Xiaonan, who took her life to come here, it didn't fall from the sky.
Don't try to make up for Liang Dazhuang and Wang Cuiying, those two things have nothing to do with her!
"Grandma, eat some first, I'll deliver food to Xiaobei." Liang Xiaonan cut the beef into slices, grabbed a steamed bun and ate one, drank a bowl of soup, and prepared to deliver food to Liang Xiaobei.
Liang Xiaobei Since Liang Dazhuang carried water from their fish pond to put out the fire at night, he never stayed away from the fish pond during the day and night.
Grandma Liang said: "Xiaonan, Sister Hu brought a letter today, saying that Mr. Yang's wife Mr. Zeng from Nanfeng Town is coming to visit the house. Don't go to the city tomorrow."
Liang Xiaonan has been raising fish and growing artemisia these days, so he really forgot about it. The Yang family in Nanfeng Town is here as a guest, is this to see her?
Mr. Yang is here, will his grandson come with him?
