That night, Zhang Xiulan, Liu Cheng, Liu Yu, and Dong Biwu went to the hotel near the burned house, where eight families lived.The previous agreement to give each family 3,500 yuan has been negotiated, and Liu Yu has also given Liu Yu food and accommodation in the past few days, and everyone's mood is also very calm.After Zhang Xiulan arrived, she took out the written agreement, which said that she would compensate 3,500 yuan at one time for the house and the loss, and no matter what happened in the future, it had nothing to do with this side.Three thousand five hundred yuan was a lot more than the eight families expected, so naturally there was no opinion, everyone signed and pressed their fingerprints, and Liu Cheng divided the money.In the end, Zhang Xiulan looked at the vegetable seller, and said that he would let his family help look at the house, but now that such a thing has happened, Zhang Xiulan can't say anything to blame, but in the end, she is unwilling to lose all the money she earns."
Big brother, we can be regarded as neighbors for half a year, although we haven't had much contact, but we haven't blushed, you helped us see the yard, this incident has also happened, I can't let you take any responsibility, but I think that this yard is not inhabited by people and it is impossible for a fire for no reason, think about it, are there any strange people or strange places in the neighborhood these days?"
Now that the issue of compensation has been dealt with, Zhang Xiulan can also calm down and ask about this matter.It's not that she thinks too much, a courtyard that doesn't live in people, suddenly caught fire, and burned so many homes, either for her or for the midterm family, even if it's just a guess now, Zhang Xiulan doesn't want to let go of any opportunity."
This ......
I was just selling vegetables at home, and I came out at night to take a look, and I didn't notice it. ”There was helplessness on Zhonghou's face.The woman in charge of the family next to her was still looking at Zhang Xiulan with fierce eyes.Zhang Xiulan still wanted to ask, but she choked her throat, and finally smiled, "Okay, I'm sorry for you." ”He stopped talking.Liu Yu and Dong Biwu had been watching the changes on the side, and when the four of them slowly walked home, Liu Yu couldn't help but ask, "Xiulan."
You mean someone deliberately set the fire?
”"Big sister.Otherwise, how do you think a courtyard that doesn't live can catch fire?
”Zhang Xiulan smiled bitterly, and she was not afraid of hitting her, "But it seems."
We just know that it's useless for someone to set fire to it, and you don't have any clues.But forget it, in the end, I thought things too simply, and it would have been better if I had moved all the fabrics to the small warehouse at home.That might not have happened. ”Zhang Xiulan vaguely felt that this was for the business they were doing, or watching them make money.So red-eyed, but they have always closed their doors to do business, and they have never robbed business with others in Spring City, let alone offended anyone.If there is a contradiction, it is the second aunt in Beijing.Thinking of this, Song Qimei's appearance also flashed in her eyes.Zhang Xiulan felt that although the Song family was greedy for money, it had not reached this point, but except for the Song family.She really can't remember the enmity with someone.After Zhang Xiulan finished speaking, she fell into deep thought.Liu Yu also pursed his lips, now that he thinks about it, this is indeed the case, otherwise how could there be a fire for no reason?
After the accident, she has been busy with how to solve the burned people's homes, and she has no time to think about it, but now she is noticed by Xiulan so little.Liu Cheng and Dong Biwu followed aside, neither interjecting, but the expressions on their faces were very solemn, and it was not until they arrived at the compound that Dong Biwu said to see his parents.Liu Yu stayed to talk to him, and Zhang Xiulan and Liu Cheng went to the house first.Liu's father and mother were all at home, the two were sitting in the living room, obviously waiting for them to come back, there was no smell of food in the house, it was dark outside, and there was no cooking at this time, Zhang Xiulan expected that it was because of the fire."
Come back, come and sit, I have something to say to your father."
Mother Liu glanced at her daughter-in-law and spoke lightly.It's only been three or four days, and the corners of her mouth are covered with a layer of big blisters.After Liu Cheng and Zhang Xiulan sat down, Liu's mother directly said, "Everything is done?"
”"It's done, I've negotiated with that side, and I don't have anything to do with us."
Zhang Xiulan took out the 10,000 yuan in her pocket and put it on the coffee table, "Mom, this is the money that the eldest sister took from you." ”Mother Liu nodded, didn't say anything about money, her face was solemn, "Xiulan, your father and I have also thought about it these days, you have a body now, Liu Yu is going to get married again, your business should be stopped for a while, I am saying that when the child is born, you have to take the child, and there is no time to get these, this time, you have also seen it, the business is to make money, and the risk is also big, the little money you earn has been lost, and it doesn't matter if you lose it, but this person who is frightened and suffered, and the family is also tossed and turned.
Your father and I are too old to withstand such a toss, and I don't want you to be blessed and rich, as long as you are safe. ”Mother Liu said that it means that she should not be in business."
Okay, then listen to Mom and Dad."
Zhang Xiulan responded with a smile, and there was no unhappiness on her face.The heart slowly sank, she has no culture, no job, what can change the status quo is to do business by herself, this time the fire lost all the money, Zhang Xiulan still stood up and was not hit, but she didn't want to be hindered by her mother-in-law.After getting married, this was the first time that her mother-in-law and father-in-law had officially talked to them, and Zhang Xiulan knew what it meant, so she couldn't show a little dissatisfaction, even if she didn't want to.Liu Cheng frowned, "Mom, Xiulan stays at home every day, she likes design, and she has a talent for this, since she and Liu Yu like it, let them go, what can happen if something happens?"
It's nothing more than losing some money like this time, and you can't make any other losses. ”"Liu Cheng, this matter is not as simple as you think, what do you think is happening to the two of them opening a factory?
is saying that Xiulan is pregnant now, what can she do?
You don't need to say much about this, your father and I have already decided, our family can't afford to support her, and we are talking about going out to do business with a big belly, so how can the people in the compound pay attention to our family?
”After saying her son, Liu's mother turned to her daughter-in-law and said, "Xiulan, I make this decision with your father-in-law, don't think about it too much, it's not your business to live alone, we still have a big family, besides, your eldest sister is so easy to settle down, she and Biwu are not young, you have to have children when you get married, and if you have children, you can catch her to live kindly, but you always have to be distracted in business, so let's wait for the children to be older."
As for you can't stay, you don't have to worry about this, I also discussed it with your father-in-law, and I will find you a temporary job first, and you will do it, so that you won't feel bored at home, what do you think?
If you have any ideas, you can say them. ”"Mom, I don't have any ideas, you can arrange it however you want."
Zhang Xiulan smiled as if she didn't have a heart, as if she wasn't talking about herself.I went back upstairs, and the smile on my face subsided, and the overwhelming sadness came up, ignoring Liu Cheng on the side, and the tears fell from the bed, and the more I wiped it, the more it was wiped, just like a sluice gate that had been released.Liu Cheng saw it, turned around and walked out, Zhang Xiulan hurriedly got up and grabbed him, "Why are you going?"
”I just cried, but my eyes were red like rabbits, staring at you cautiously, as if I had melted you."
Go and talk to mom lightly."
Liu Cheng wanted to say it downstairs before, but it can be seen that his daughter-in-law has been giving him a look, so he didn't say anything more.Now that he entered the bedroom, he saw his daughter-in-law sad like this, where could Liu Cheng still sit still, so he naturally went downstairs to find his mother to theorize.When Zhang Xiulan heard this, she became more and more anxious, and tears poured out, "If you really want it for my good, don't care about anything." ”Raised his hand and wiped his tears again, seeing that he couldn't wipe it, he simply didn't wipe it, "Originally, my mother was also for my good, and besides, if I said such a big thing, if my mother really didn't say anything, I wouldn't feel comfortable, you go out to find your mother now, what do you think?"
I'm afraid that I also have an opinion, let me say that I didn't say it when I was down, and you will go down after a while when you go upstairs, can you not think about it?
When I got married, my mother treated me the same as my own child, don't hurt my feelings because of this matter, I won't do business if I can't do business, then I'll pick up the textbooks, study at home, take the college entrance examination next year, if I am admitted to the university, I can go to the child just after giving birth, and my mother will also help me take care of the child. ”Taking a deep breath, Zhang Xiulan forced out a smile, "It's good not to do business, I'm so relieved to raise the fetus now, I don't need to work anymore, I didn't graduate from junior high school, the job must have been found by my parents by relationship, the compound knows, and the impact on them is not good, I just raise the fetus at home and cook."
But you don't need to say it, I'll talk to my mother when I'm free. ”"If I can't help you out at this time, then what kind of man am I?
Mom is too arbitrary, what does it have to do with whether you do business or not?
You don't have to persuade me like that, I'm twelve years older than you, what can't I understand?
”Liu Cheng sat down angrily, "Xiulan, do you regard me as your husband?"
”Zhang Xiulan paused slightly, not understanding why he suddenly got angry."
You really think of me as a man, and you just talk to me and hide it like this, you know?
I saw that you were obviously uncomfortable, but with a smile on your face, I couldn't wait to question you on the spot. ”Liu Cheng lowered his head in pain and covered his head with both hands, "But I know I can't, that will make you embarrassed."
I am your husband, and what I need is that you can rely on me, instead of fighting everything by yourself, so that I feel like you are an outsider, and you will always wrap yourself in it, and no one can get close. ”(To be continued) ps: Thank you for the peace charm 150309134049105 by the book friend...
