Looking at the driver running away, Cheng Xiuyun was stunned. When she came to her senses, her heart was burning with anger.
"Bastard, get back here!"
How could the driver come back? He ran so fast that he didn't even dare to pick up his shoes. He was afraid that he would lose his life if he delayed any longer.
A group of people approached the car. The leader looked at Cheng Xiuyun and said, "Pull this old woman down and gag her, so that she won't make too much noise when we work."
Old woman?
Cheng Xiuyun was so angry that her whole body was trembling. She pointed at them and scolded, "How dare you do such an illegal thing in broad daylight? I advise you to leave now, or I will put all of you in jail!"
In the face of such villains, how could she not know that staying alive was the most important thing?
Of course she knew!
But she had no way out. All their property was in the car. If it was taken away, they would be finished!
So she had to protect this batch of goods no matter what!
"Call the police? Haha, I'll kill you. Let's see how you can call the police! "
The leader sneered and then ordered two young men to get in the car and pull Cheng Xiuyun down.
Cheng Xiuyun struggled and screamed, "Let go of me, let go of me! Let me tell you, my father-in-law is the commander of the air force. My daughter-in-law's grandfather is the commander of the army. If you know what's good for you, get out of here! "
The leader stared at her. "Are you telling the truth?"
Cheng Xiuyun's heart skipped a beat when she met the other party's ferocious gaze. Her teeth started to chatter. "No, I'm lying to you. I just want to scare you. We borrowed money to buy these goods. Please don't take them away. I beg you!"
But the leader didn't believe her. "Come on, take her over there and kill her!"
Cheng Xiuyun was pale with fear and her legs were weak. "Brother, I was wrong. I'll give you all the goods. Please let me go!"
The leader didn't care about her at all. "Gag her mouth and don't make trouble. Others, hurry up!"
One of the men who grabbed Cheng Xiuyun took off his sock and stuffed it into Cheng Xiuyun's mouth.
Cheng Xiuyun didn't know how long the socks had not been washed. They smelled like dried salted fish and also like the smell of rotting corpses. The smell almost suffocated him to death.
She felt nauseous and vomited. However, her mouth was stuffed with something, so she had to swallow it back.
That smell, that feeling was worse than death!
But these were not the main point. The main point was that the two men pulled her directly to the small forest over there. It seemed that they wanted to kill her and then dump her body in the small forest.
Cheng Xiuyun was so scared that his eyes almost popped out of their sockets, his heart thumping like thunder.
She couldn't die, she couldn't die no matter what!
She whimpered and begged the two men to let her go with her eyes.
The man who took off his socks kicked her. "Behave yourself. You're digging your own grave. If you didn't say that your father-in-law is the commander, and your daughter-in-law's grandfather is the commander, why would boss want your life?"
"That's right!" Another man sneered, "For someone like you with such a background, once we let you go back, we'll be the ones in trouble!"
Usually, they only robbed money and goods. As long as the people who were robbed were sensible enough, they wouldn't kill them easily.
But this woman's background was too powerful. Whether she was telling the truth or just scaring them, they couldn't let her go.
Cheng Xiuyun regretted it a thousand times in her heart. If she had known, she would have learned from the driver and run for her life. If she had known, she wouldn't have tried to scare them with those words.
But it was too late to regret now.
Cheng Xiuyun's lower body was wet. She was so scared that she peed in her pants. The next moment, the smell of feces came out.
The two men who grabbed her were so disgusted that they felt nauseous. They turned their faces aside and retched. Naturally, their hands didn't hold her so tightly.
Kill you when you're sick!
Cheng Xiuyun didn't have time to be embarrassed. She struggled hard, shook off the two men's hands, and then began to run desperately.
The autumn wind blew on her face like a knife. Cheng Xiuyun ran forward with all her strength.
The two men reacted and hurried to catch up with her. "Damn old woman, stop!"
Cheng Xiuyun desperately ran towards the riverside. Just as she was about to be caught, she suddenly tripped on a stone. Her whole body fell to the ground with a "bang". Her forehead was immediately smashed with a big hole.
Blood came out of the hole on her forehead and soon dyed the ground red.
The two men ran over and didn't panic when they saw this scene. They pulled Cheng Xiuyun to the riverside and threw her directly into the river.
With a "splash", Cheng Xiuyun was thrown into the river like a piece of garbage. She only struggled for a moment before she stopped moving.
Seeing her sink, the two men clapped their hands and turned to leave.
As soon as they walked away, two men immediately came out of the grass and chased along the river. Then they jumped into the river one after another to save Cheng Xiuyun.
These two men were called by Su Yueshen to prevent Cheng Xiuyun from losing her life.
When Cheng Xiuyun woke up again, she was already in the hospital.
The nurse said that she was saved by a kind person from the river. She was saved, but she had a splitting headache and wanted to bang her head against the wall.
In addition to the headache, her limbs and bones hurt everywhere.
After a long time, she remembered that she was robbed and hurriedly asked the nurse to call the police.
The police officers quickly came to take her statement, but the group of people had already disappeared without a trace. They didn't know when they would catch them, so they only asked Cheng Xiuyun to leave her contact information. Once they caught them, they would contact her.
These words couldn't comfort Cheng Xiuyun at all. They only made her more desperate and anxious.
4,000 yuan went down the drain just like that. How was she going to tell Shi Xiuneng when she went back?
She didn't dare to delay and left the hospital as soon as she felt a little better. Because she didn't have any money, the Public Security Bureau paid for her and helped her buy a ticket back to Beijing.
When she returned to Beijing, it was already two days later.
In these two days, she was suffering every moment. In addition, her body hadn't recovered yet, so she lost a few pounds and her hair was white. She looked as if she had aged more than ten years.
Shi Xiuneng was shocked when he saw her. "Xiuyun, how did you become like this? Weren't you supposed to come back two days ago? Where did you go? "
Cheng Xiuyun grabbed his hand and cried. "Xiuneng, I almost couldn't see you again. I was robbed on the way. They threw me into the river. I almost couldn't come back. Wuwuwu …"
A bolt from the blue!
Shi Xiuneng's eyes widened. "You met robbers? What about the clothes? Were all the clothes taken? "
Cheng Xiuyun saw that Shi Xiuneng only cared about the goods and turned a blind eye to her miserable situation. She felt as if her heart was blocked by cotton. "The goods were stolen. I called the police. The police said they would do their best to catch the robbers."
Shi Xiuneng shook off her hand. "Do their best? Doesn't that mean the goods can't be recovered? How did you do your job? Why didn't you just take the train back? If you took the train back, how could the goods be robbed? "
Cheng Xiuyun felt like her heart was stabbed again. "Are you blaming me? I'm a woman with so many goods. How could I take the train? "
"If you couldn't bring them back, why didn't you call me? Anyway, this is your fault! "
Shi Xiuneng thought of 4,000 yuan gone just like that. His heart ached.
Cheng Xiuyun saw that Shi Xiuneng only cared about blaming her and felt a chill in her heart. "You didn't want to go with me back then. You said you wanted to look for a shop here. I asked you to come with me, but you didn't. What right do you have to blame me now?"
Shi Xiuneng was so angry that he slapped her. "If it's not your fault, then is it my fault? I lost all my money because of you, and you still have the face to yell at me? "
Cheng Xiuyun saw stars after being slapped. She lost her balance and bumped into the cabinet behind her. Waves of pain came from her waist.
But before she could say anything, Shi Xingrui's cries came from the door. "Boohoo …"
Hearing his daughter's cries, Shi Xiuneng came back to his senses. "Why are you crying?"
Shi Xingrui cried and scratched her head. "I have a lot of lice on my head. My classmates don't want to play with me. They call me a lice lady. The teacher told me not to go to school before I get rid of the lice. Boohoo …"
Shi Xingrui cried as if her father had died.
Shi Xiuneng walked over and pulled his daughter's hair to take a look. He immediately had goosebumps on his arms.
Her hair was densely packed with lice and lice eggs. It was chilling to look at.
He subconsciously pushed his daughter's head away and wiped his hands on his body.
Shi Xingrui fell to the ground after being pushed by her father. She cried even louder.
Shi Xiuneng turned to Cheng Xiuyun and scolded, "Why are you still standing there? Get up and treat Little Rui's lice. It's all your fault for neglecting Little Rui. You don't even know that she has so many lice. I don't even know what kind of mother you are! "
Cheng Xiuyun was so angry that she almost vomited blood. "I have to sell clothes every day and go to Shen City to get them shipped. How can I have time to take care of Little Rui? You didn't even notice it at home. Don't you have any responsibility for the child? What right do you have to push all the responsibility to me? "
So the two of them started a new round of quarrel. In the end, they fought.
Cheng Xiuyun was beaten black and blue by Shi Xiuneng. Shi Xiuneng's arm was cut by Cheng Xiuyun with a kitchen knife. Blood flowed out.
Shi Xingrui was so scared that she cried loudly.
The neighbors came over to stop the fight. Only then did the couple stop fighting.
****************
As Tong Xuelu expected, Cheng Xiuyun and Shi Xiuneng started a dogfight.
As the weather got colder day by day, the business of the braised food shop reached its peak.
The plan to open the new restaurant was once again postponed by Tong Xuelu. She planned to deal with Cheng Xiuyun and Shi Xiuneng before opening the restaurant. Otherwise, the two dogs might go to the restaurant and cause trouble.
Out of the five people she hired, three of them couldn't wait and said that they were quitting. Tong Xuelu didn't keep them. She gave them their salaries and let them go.
The others, including Deng Hong and the two chefs, said that they could wait.
Tong Xuelu promised them that the restaurant would open in a month at the latest.
After settling the matters of the braised food shop and the restaurant, she took a car to the base to look for Wen Rugui.
Ever since she saw him suffer from schizophrenia that night, she couldn't eat or sleep well. She wanted to spend more time with him to stabilize his condition.
Wen Rugui was surprised to see her at the base. He helped her up and said, "Why didn't you tell me that you were coming? I could have picked you up. "
Tong Xuelu observed his complexion. "I knew that you were busy, so I didn't tell you. Also, I wanted to give you a surprise. Are you not happy to see me?"
Wen Rugui held her hand. His eyes were filled with love. "I'm happy. I'm very happy to see you."
Tong Xuelu hooked her finger on his palm and winked at him. "Correct answer. I'll give you a French kiss later."
Wen Rugui's palm was itchy. His heart was also itchy. "What's a French kiss?"
Tong Xuelu's red lips curled. "You'll know later."
Wen Rugui looked at her red lips. His heart was beating like thunder. He wanted to immediately pull her to the dormitory to see what a French kiss was.
Although he didn't know what a French kiss was, when he heard the word "kiss", all the blood in his body rushed to his face. The tips of his ears immediately turned red.
In order to stop himself from thinking about being a hooligan, he changed the topic. "Have you been vomiting for the past two days?"
Tong Xuelu said, "Granny Shen gave me an indigenous prescription to treat morning sickness. After I took it, I stopped vomiting. Look, my belly is a little bigger."
Wen Rugui's eyes fell on her belly. Indeed, it was a little protruding.
This' slightly 'was relative to her previously flat stomach.
Tong Xuelu touched her belly and said, "Granny Shen said that the belly usually looks a little bigger after three months. Some people need four or five months. My belly is only three months old and it's already protruding. She said that I might be twins."
Wen Rugui was stunned. "Twins?"
Tong Xuelu looked up at him. "Yes. Yesterday, Granny Shen accompanied me to do an ultrasound. The doctor said that there were indeed two gestational sacs. It's preliminarily confirmed that I'm pregnant with twins."
Wen Rugui was stunned. When he came back to his senses, he was wild with joy.
He felt as if a big pie had fallen from the sky and hit him.
He didn't expect that he would be a father after just a month of marriage. Moreover, there were two of them!
If Zhou Yan found out, how jealous would he be?
"Why? Are you unhappy?"
Wen Rugui came back to his senses and quickly nodded. "I'm very happy. Thank you, Xuelu."
If it weren't for her, he would never have felt the love between a man and a woman. If it weren't for her, he might never have had the chance to be a father.
She was his salvation.
Wen Rugui held their intertwined hands tightly. A warm current flowed through his heart.
"But why didn't you tell me yesterday?"
There was a trace of grievance and regret in his voice. He looked at her eagerly. He looked a little pitiful like a puppy.
Tong Xuelu stopped. Seeing that there was no one around, she tiptoed and kissed him on the cheek. "I wanted to give you a surprise. Don't be angry, okay?"
Because it was an uncertain matter, he had been very busy in the laboratory during this period. It was a bit of a fuss to call him back for a prenatal checkup.
The main thing was that she didn't expect to be pregnant with twins.
With such a gentle kiss, the grievance in Wen Rugui's heart suddenly disappeared.
He looked around and saw that there was no one around. He put his hand around her waist and lowered his head to kiss her lips. "I'm not angry. I'm very happy."
The two kissed for a long time before separating.
Kissing outside was an unprecedented experience for Wen Ru. The heat on his face did not subside for a long time.
Because Tong Xuelu was pregnant, Wen Rugui couldn't bear to let her cook. The two of them went to the cafeteria to eat.
Zhou Yan and Huang Qimin came over to be the third wheel.
Wen Rugui didn't eat himself. He kept putting food on Tong Xuelu's plate. "This fried tofu tastes good. Try it."
Tong Xuelu picked up a piece of tofu and put it in her mouth. "It melts in the mouth. It tastes good."
Wen Rugui then picked up a piece of pork ribs for her. "The pork ribs are steamed very soft. It tastes good."
Tong Xuelu smiled and picked up another piece of pork ribs to eat. She nodded. "It's really good. But don't just pick up food for me. You should eat quickly too."
As she spoke, she also picked up a piece of fried meat for him. Wen Rugui looked at her gently. The two of them looked at each other and smiled.
Zhou Yan: "…"
Huang Qimin: "…"
If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have come. He was fed by their public display of affection.
Huang Qimin rolled his eyes and said, "My wife is going to give birth in two months. Although both of your wives are pregnant, you still can't compare to me. I'm the father of two children."
Zhou Yan couldn't help but roll his eyes when he saw the way he was showing off.
At this moment, Wen Rugui put down his chopsticks and said, "Xuelu is pregnant with twins. I have two children at once."
What he meant was, "Your wife had to be pregnant twice to have two children. My wife has two children at once."
He had won.
Zhou Yan and Huang Qimin were both stunned. "Twins?"
Wen Rugui looked calm. "Yes. She just had a prenatal checkup yesterday. The doctor has confirmed it."
Zhou Yan and Huang Qimin were instantly jealous.
Wasn't Wen Rugui's luck too good?
His wife was pregnant with twins after less than a month of marriage.
They had lost!
Tong Xuelu couldn't help but smile when she saw Wen Rugui trying to show off but pretending to be calm.
She only hoped that life would always be so beautiful.
