Chapter 136 Simple words, beautiful truth
Two days passed in a blink of an eye, and it was Christmas Day.
The road section from the brick kiln factory to the village road was finally dry enough to make a roadbed.
When Wu Wei arrived at the Xishan Brick Kiln Factory, Qiao Wuye had already started working with his people.
The scene was dusty and bustling.
All the old bricks dug out of the old kiln were broken up and evenly laid on the five-meter-wide roadbed.
With the help of the stones called by the old branch secretary, they were rolled back and forth by manual wheels.
The roadbed was compacted little by little, and the site of the old kiln was also cleared out bit by bit.
Until noon on the 27th.
The 300-meter road led directly to the old site of the kiln factory.
At the same time, on the cleared site of the kiln factory, Qiao Wuye also led people to select the approximate construction direction of the new round kiln.
But before that, considering that Fatty Zhou and Xiao Wei died here.
He also specially invited the old ladies in the village who pretended to be ghosts to come and perform a magic for an hour.
It can be regarded as a kind of self-comfort.
Wu Wei did not stop this.
After all, this matter was widely spread in the village.
In the future, the new kiln factory still expects villagers to come to work, so they can only follow the local customs and let it go.
Anyway, it won't cost much money.
After such a busy work, it was afternoon.
Just as the dust settled, Boss Cheng's refractory bricks were transported over.
Boss Cheng, who came with the car, immediately handed over a cigarette when he saw the scene.
"Boss Wu, this kiln factory has immediately presented a big kiln atmosphere after you took over and transformed it like this."
"Now I begin to understand your determination to do it in one step."
"Damn it, a good man is upright and upright, if you want to do something, do it big!"
Wu Wei took the other party's Huazi and said, "I'll borrow your good words, Boss Cheng."
The two of them put their heads together and lit a cigarette.
Boss Cheng blew out a puff of smoke and sighed, "To be honest, after I finish this order, I will just wait for the New Year."
Wu Wei understood and said, "Don't worry, Boss Cheng, I will pay you the money for this order before the New Year."
After achieving his goal, Boss Cheng refused again and again, "That's not what I meant, Boss Wu."
"We have been working together for so long, and it's almost the same if you keep the money in your pocket. I'm not worried at all."
Wu Wei smiled and said nothing.
That night, work was over, because it was Saturday.
Wu Wei followed his master back to the Qiao Family Courtyard.
Qiao Yuyan had come back early, and when she saw him coming, she seemed to have a telepathic connection, and her beautiful eyes were full of sweetness.
During this period, the two of them had no chance to be affectionate.
But their relationship became even closer.
Looking happy, Qiao Wuye made an exception to drink the Maotai that Wu Wei sent last time.
The master and apprentice toasted each other and just drank three three-qian cups, which was less than one tael.
Then the secretary's wife Lu Hong came over with the crying Qiao Moli.
After all, mother and son are connected by heart.
Cheng Yuejuan saw this and her heart skipped a beat. She immediately thought of Qiao Guoliang.
As a result, when Qiao Moli finished crying, Cheng Yuejuan almost fainted on the spot.
Qiao Yuyan pinched her philtrum and patted her back repeatedly before she gradually recovered.
Wu Wei was puzzled and asked, "You said before that the third brother was doing well in business and making a lot of money. How did he suddenly go to the shelter and repatriation station?"
Qiao Moli shook her head blankly and said, "I don't know. He didn't have time to say anything before the phone was hung up. I only know that he was locked up in the Zhabei District Shelter and Repatriation Station."
These days, the shelter and repatriation station still has certain risks.
In terms of reputation, it is waiting for the number of people in the same repatriation direction to gather together and be repatriated together.
But before being repatriated, the crime is not pleasant.
Some people died inexplicably.
Wu Wei clenched his teeth.
Then he saw Master Qiao Wuye drink the wine in his glass in one gulp and said, "He deserves it. How dare he call back?"
Although he said so, he couldn't just ignore it.
Especially when Master's Wife Cheng Yuejuan was so scared, Wu Wei couldn't just stand by and watch.
Fortunately, he originally planned to go to Shanghai at the end of the month.
Now it's just a little earlier.
Having made up his mind, Wu Wei said, "Master, Master's wife, it's too late to rush to Pengcheng at this time today."
"I'll leave tomorrow, and I can bring the third brother out the day after tomorrow morning at the earliest."
"Master, please find the old branch secretary to issue a letter of introduction to the third brother, something that can prove his identity."
Lu Hong was influenced by the old branch secretary after all, and immediately said, "Xiao Wu is right, Lao Wu, you should go to the village office and find Jasmine's father. This matter is inseparable from Jasmine's instigation. I will help you teach this child a lesson when you go home."
So the meal came to an abrupt end.
After Cheng Yuejuan calmed down a little, Qiao Yuyan finally remembered that she felt sorry for Wu Wei.
Pulling him to her room, she said, "Third brother despises you so much, yet you still want to help him."
Wu Wei smiled and said, "For the sake of you and Master's wife, I have no choice but to do it. Besides, Third brother is not a bad person."
After that, she changed the subject and said, "Tell me, what do you want this time, I will bring it back for you."
Hearing this, Qiao Yuyan looked at the watch on her hand with cherishment and said, "I haven't even given you a watch in return, so don't spend money indiscriminately anymore."
Wu Wei touched her slender hand and said, "You are a cultured person, haven't you heard of the saying that the best relationship is that you owe each other? You don't have to pay back what you owe me, and I don't have to pay back what I owe you. We can only spend our lives together, and we will naturally settle the accounts when we grow old."
Qiao Yuyan murmured: "Love is a debt to each other? God, why can you always use the simplest words to say the most beautiful truths."
Wu Wei said in a joking tone: "Then remember, if you find that I owe you something in the future, don't just let me go. You must pester me and make me repay you for the rest of my life."
Qiao Yuyan quickly hugged him tightly and said, "No, no."
Half an hour later, Wu Wei left with a letter of introduction issued by the village and Qiao Guoliang's ID.
However, after leaving the Qiao family compound, Wu Wei did not go back to the county directly, but found Ma Jinbao's home.
At that time, Ma Haitao was slicing rice with a big bowl in his hands.
Seeing this, he was stunned on the spot until Ma Jinbao slapped him on the back of the head and said, "Don't you know how to get up and let your master sit down?"
Wu Wei quickly stopped him and said, "Old Ma, don't hit him like this all the time. If you're not careful, you could break him again."
With the support of his master, Ma Haitao immediately said proudly: "That's right, my brain is not good because I was beaten by my father since I was a child."
Wu Wei put away a cigarette and said, "I'll make a long story short. I'm looking for Haitao to accompany me to Shanghai tomorrow."
Ma Jinbao said without hesitation: "You are his master, and he must obey your arrangements."
After saying that, he kicked the person with his foot and said, "What else are you going to eat? Hurry up and pack your luggage and follow your master."
Wu Wei waved his hand and said, "There's no need to be in such a hurry. Just come to the county to see me before noon tomorrow."
