Chapter 153: There is a girl in the village
After all, they were just a few friends who got together to play in a specific period and under a specific environment.
Several faces were blurred, and Zhou Wang could only remember a boy and a girl.
I remember that boy because he was later sent to a certain school because of bad things. When it reached Zhou Wang\'s ears, it became a deep memory.
Zhou Wang\'s parents were still rejoicing at that time. Fortunately, Zhou Wang did not play with him all the time. Fortunately, they brought Zhou Wang to Jingcheng and escaped from the small "quagmire" of Lu County...
As for the girl, she is this "Lin Lin".
Zhou Wang didn\'t even know her name, he only remembered her as a very cute sister with big eyes, two or three years younger than him.
But now Zhou Wang recalled that he loved to go to her house to play at that time, not because this sister was fun, but because of the "Sister Xiaoyu" in her aunt\'s mouth.
The ignorant boy didn\'t realize it, but the charm of a mature and gentle woman in her twenties had been attracting him subconsciously.
If everything has two sides, light and dark, then in Zhou Wang\'s adolescence, "light" corresponded to Sister Qingkui who always held a stack of books and walked in the wind, while "dark" represented washing clothes by the river. , Sister Xiaoyu smiled as soon as she raised her head.
The combination of light and darkness is the complete yearning for women in the enlightenment period of a big boy.
As for making Linlin cry, Zhou Wang really didn\'t mean it...
At that time, it seemed that "Huan Zhu Ge Ge" was being broadcast on TV. I don\'t know which clip I was watching. The two children who were originally playing "Character Play" acted as Erkang and Ziwei...
To be precise, Linlin didn\'t cry because he kissed her, but because he bit her.
But the most incredible thing is that Sister Xiaoyu did not beat him, but instead beat her own daughter...
"Ahem, aunt, let\'s not talk about these old things."
Zhou Wang awkwardly stopped his aunt who wanted to elaborate, "I\'m just curious, how is their family doing now?"
My aunt also lives in Zhaozhuang and is obviously very familiar with these things. She started with a standard sigh when she heard this and said: "What else can I do? Linlin, an orphan and a widowed mother, has not finished reading. You, Sister Xiaoyu, are looking for that A man..."
After listening to his aunt talk for a while, Zhou Wang probably understood.
The tragedy still comes from a marriage without choice.
Sister Xiaoyu got married at the age of sixteen. Although there are not many such things in rural areas, it is not uncommon. Many older generations do not have any concept of legal age when dealing with these things. They just get on the bus first, pay for the ticket later, and have a banquet. The ceremony is over...
It\'s a pity that the man she married is not a good guy. He has become a loser in the city. I heard from my aunt that he has entered the palace for the third time and is undergoing transformation in someone who knows where...
While chatting about home affairs, it was around eleven or twelve o\'clock. These aunts, who had extremely regular schedules, couldn\'t stand it any longer and dispersed one after another.
However, the card table is still in full swing and filled with smoke. Looking at the situation, I am afraid it will last all night...
Zhao Guihua ignored Lao Zhou at this time and went to sleep on her own. Zhou Wang sat and played with his mobile phone for a while, like reviewing memorials every day. After replying to some missing messages one after another, he went to the second page. Went to bed upstairs.
Just barely falling asleep amidst the buzzing of mosquitoes, Zhou Wang was woken up by the phone call again.
When he saw the caller, he answered the phone angrily.
"Sissi, if it\'s not something important, I\'ll drag you out and kill you!"
"I\'m sorry, boss. I originally wanted to report to you tomorrow, but I feel that the matter is important and I should tell you in time..."
Xu Wenqian\'s sweet and timid voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Is there really something important?" Zhou Wang asked in surprise.
"Boss, the lottery ticket you bought really won the prize!"
Speaking of this, Xu Wenqian\'s voice was a little excited unconsciously.
"oh?"
After Zhou Wang was stunned for a moment, he also sat up from the bed, "Isn\'t the lottery draw at 9:30..."
The lottery draw date for the lottery tickets Zhou Wang bought yesterday was tonight. Because there was no movement from Xu Wenqian at 90 o\'clock, Zhou Wang assumed that he had not won the lottery. He did not expect that she would call just now.
"Sorry, boss, I was delayed by something earlier. I just had time to check the lottery information..."
Xu Wenqian said guiltily.
"It\'s okay... By the way, how are you at home?"
Zhou Wang remembered that Xu Wenqian must have been in her hometown Yixian these two days, so he asked.
"well enough."
Xu Wenqian hesitated to speak, but then she realized something was wrong and said in a dumbfounded voice: "Boss, don\'t you care about how much money you won in the lottery? Why did you start talking to me about family matters..."
"Money is not important, you are important."
Zhou Wang came casually.
"..."
Xu Wenqian fell silent for a moment.
"Hey, Sissi, are you still there?"
Zhou Wang waited for a while and asked in confusion.
"I...it\'s okay."
Xu Wenqian\'s voice sounded again, but her voice was slightly hoarse. Soon she chuckled and said: "Boss, you won the second prize, but you just got the wrong number!"
"Second prize?"
Zhou Wang was not disappointed when he heard that it was not the first prize. After all, he already knew that Halo\'s main focus was "little luck". Hearing this, he just curiously asked: "How much is it?"
"The single bet was more than 110,000, but because you, boss, added it, it was actually a little more than 190,000. Then you bought 99 times, so the final bonus should be about 19 million..."
One bet is only a few hundred thousand...
Zhou Wang didn\'t expect that the gap between the second prize and the first prize was so big. After all, it was just a wrong number...
Fortunately, all his numbers were doubled 99 times, and the doubled amount was a little more than the ordinary first prize.
Not bad, not bad. It\'s all money he picked up for free anyway. It just so happened that this time he spent a lot of money on a trip home, which can be regarded as making up for his cash flow...
"Okay, then you put the lottery tickets away, and when you return to Mingcheng, you can help me claim the prize."
"ah?"
Listening to Zhou Wang\'s not very excited tone, Xu Wenqian briefly doubted her life again.
Can\'t even nearly 20 million sway his boss\'s mood?
Xu Wenqian also wanted to ask, "Aren\'t you afraid that I will take the money and run away? Just let me redeem the prize." After all, the lottery only looks at the ticket stub...
But before she could ask, Zhou Wang said "good night" and hung up the phone. "I won\'t!"
Xu Wenqian replied to herself as if she was talking to the phone that had been turned off, and then smiled like a fool.
Just after putting down her phone and listening to the faint quarrels of her parents outside the room, Xu Wenqian wrapped herself tightly in the quilt and buried her head deeply...
...
Because he didn\'t sleep well, Zhou Wang stayed in bed for a while the next morning. It wasn\'t until his mother called him around ten o\'clock that he slowly went downstairs.
Normally, people in rural areas eat relatively early, but the food was already on the table at half past ten, making it difficult for Zhou Wang to evaluate whether what he was eating was breakfast or lunch...
What surprised Zhou Wang was that Jiang Qingkui, who had returned in the GLC, was already sitting at the dinner table.
While eating, Zhou Wang received a message from Xu Wenqian. Before he could take a closer look at the bank\'s account deposit text message, it had already arrived.
"China Merchants Bank: Your account with the last number 1111 received RMB 15,234,912 at 10:41 on August 4."
After Zhou Wang inquired, he found out that Xu Wenqian rushed to Mingcheng from Yi County early in the morning, and took the staff from China Merchants Bank Private Bank to the sports lottery center. After doing all this, she ran back to Yi County.
In fact, Zhou Wang was really not in a hurry, but obviously Xu Wenqian didn\'t want to keep more than 10 million in her pocket, which would make her very uneasy.
Zhou Wang is not worried that Xu Wenqian will take the money and run away. Xu Wenqian\'s loyalty on her resume has reached "88", which is close to the level of "dead-hearted".
Even if she really has any thoughts, changes in loyalty will be reported to Zhou Wang immediately. It can only be said that the existence of the [universal resume] is simply good news for a salty boss like Zhou Wang.
It is worth mentioning that Jiang Qingkui\'s initial loyalty level, which was originally 70 points, has increased slightly in the past few days, reaching 75. Before going home yesterday, it was only 73...
Jiang Qingkui was puzzled by Zhou Wang\'s strange look. Although his face was expressionless, his hands were obviously slippery when picking up the vegetables...
Zhou Wang looked at his balance again.
Spending has been quite intense in the past two days. His bank card balance, which originally exceeded 25 million, once dropped to just over 17 million.
Now that this amount has been recorded, Zhou Wang\'s cash balance has jumped to more than 30 million again...
Having won two lottery jackpots within a month, Zhou Wang wanted to ask, who else is there?
After a pleasant lunch, it was time for Zhou Wang and his family to return.
Originally, he could stay for two more days, and Lao Zhou was very busy at work in the archives, but Zhao Guihua was thinking about the decoration of the house. Anyway, the "European Tour Group" would be organized in a few days, and Zhao Guihua, as the leader, would definitely have to come again, so It doesn\'t matter.
They also had to take their grandmother back to Jingcheng. Although Bupa Group provided door-to-door services, the experience report had to be issued at a designated health center.
Before leaving, Zhou Wang threw the remaining half of the Diaoyutai to his uncle, indicating that he should share it. Then he got into the back seat of the Mercedes-Benz G and waved goodbye to all his relatives.
If nothing else, the next time we meet is during the Chinese New Year...
...
I didn\'t deliberately follow the car on the return trip.
Because Zhao Guihua complained a lot when he came here, Lao Zhou probably wanted to prove his driving skills, so the Mercedes-Benz GLC quickly disappeared on the country road.
Zhou Wang was not in a hurry, he just let Miao Ying drive slowly while he rolled down the car window and admired the scenery outside the window that he would not see again for a long time.
When the car passed a small intersection, Zhou Wang saw a familiar crooked-necked tree. The corresponding memory had not yet emerged, and he felt an inexplicable throbbing in his heart.
"parking."
Miao Ying stepped on the brakes as she was told, while Jiang Qingkui looked over in confusion.
"Wait me a moment."
Zhou Wang didn\'t explain, he just opened the door and got out of the car.
He looked at the crooked-necked tree again to make sure he was on the right track, and then slowly walked into the narrow path.
After a few meters, an open yard appeared in front of him. There was also a well in the yard, but it was already abandoned and blocked by rocks and garbage.
There are a total of three households in the relatively clean yard, all of which are relatively old low-rise houses. The doors of two of them are closed, and it looks like no one has lived in them for a long time.
But at the very back of the yard, there was still a house with its double door open on one side. At this moment, a girl in a white floral skirt was squatting by the door, teasing the belly of a house at her feet...
Ci Hua Mao?
Zhou Wang is not sure of the species, but it is the kind of wild cat that is very common in the village.
Under the sunshine at noon, the curvy girl seemed to have been given a layer of brilliance. Her long, soft but somewhat bifurcated hair was draped on one side, revealing a pretty face that was "giggling".
Her skin was not fair, and she still had some freckles, but her handsome facial features, set off by that pure smile, were radiant at the moment.
Zhou Wang looked from a distance and vaguely saw the shadow of Sister Xiaoyu from the girl.
This scene was so beautiful that Zhou Wang subconsciously took out his phone and took a photo.
But the "click" sound of the camera finally aroused the kitten\'s alert. It turned its head and glanced at Zhou Wang before running away. The girl finally noticed the uninvited guest standing in the yard.
The moment she saw Zhou Wang, the girl was stunned for a moment, and then she pulled up her skirt in a panic, as if she wanted to use this action to cover up the badly worn slippers on her feet.
Perhaps after realizing that this didn\'t work, the girl turned around and ran into the house, leaving Zhou Wang, who had just raised his hand halfway, frozen in place with a slight embarrassment.
Zhou Wang was thinking that he might have been a little abrupt, and half of the girl\'s body leaned out of the room again. She didn\'t dare to look directly at Zhou Wang, but when she looked up occasionally, there was shyness and curiosity in her dark eyes.
"Linlin?"
Zhou Wang, who finally had a chance to speak, smiled and waved to her, "Do you still remember me?"
The girl opened her lips, hesitated to speak, and finally just nodded lightly.
Seeing that the other party still remembered him, Zhou Wang got closer and said with a smile: "I haven\'t been back for a long time. I just happened to pass by and asked to see you and Sister Xiaoyu. Is your mother at home?"
"exist."
The girl finally spoke and said in very non-standard Mandarin: "I...my mother is not feeling well...no, not feeling well. She is sleeping in the house..."
Zhou Wang thought she was just nervous and didn\'t care.
Hearing that Sister Xiaoyu was resting, Zhou Wang had no choice but to give up. He stood in the yard and tried to say a few words to Linlin, but the other party seemed very reserved. She lowered her head most of the time and did not want to invite her. Zhou Wang came into the room and sat down.
Zhou Wang looked at the introverted and timid girl in front of him, who was completely different from the lively and cute little white flower in his memory, and sighed a little in his heart.
Linlin actually has a very good foundation. If a girl like this were born in a prosperous city and knew a little bit about dressing, how many people would she be a goddess...
It\'s a pity that she, standing in the shadow of the short hall, is so inconspicuous after losing the sunlight.
After sighing with emotion, Zhou Wang was about to say goodbye when a loud noise suddenly came from the room.
