Chapter 152 The Opposite of Hope

The reason for the excitement may be the first family outing in a long time.

From the moment I received a call from my sister and learned that my father was ill, my life went off track and ran wildly in a direction out of control.Fortunately, I was angry and complained, and finally stopped the car before it derailed, and got back on track little by little.

Lu Zhenzhong and the recovering Sang Baiyue found out the detailed address on the genealogy - a certain day in a certain year, a certain month and a certain day, the distant hometown suddenly asked someone to go to Sang's father's detailed mailing address.Just when Papa Sang forgot about it, his hometown sent this family tree again.The family tree was full of names that were unquestionable to Sang Baiyue at that time, but Sang's father looked at it for a long time.

Use map software to find directions.Starting from Shanghai, it takes one and a half hours by train to reach Danyang.Far less than expected.

Because of the convenient transportation, the cost of catching deserters seems low.

The couple can take a picture.

Lu Zhenzhong continued to send messages to Mrs. Hua.With the increase in the number of days Mrs. Hua lives at home, it has reached 200 yuan a night.Adding tomorrow night and the night after tomorrow, it will eventually reach 300 yuan a night.Lu Zhenzhong believed that Mrs. Hua would not refuse such an expensive night.He discovered a little secret, that not every Shanghai native has money.

For example, Mrs. Hua.

Because of her conservativeness, she missed the opportunity to buy a house one after another. She took the demolition money, dared not invest, and kept it in the bank cautiously, thinking it was absolutely safe.Unexpectedly, he raised a rogue son.The son secretly carried the old couple behind his back, and squandered all the money in the bank card, leaving only a fake passbook in the old woman's safe.

When Mrs. Hua finally made up her mind and was about to spend [-] to [-] yuan on jade wears, she went to the bank to withdraw the money, and it was as if she had been slapped in the face. The passbook and card were all there, but the money in it was gone.

Mrs. Hua collapsed on the spot, squatting on the bank, crying loudly.Resisting to accept the reality, she called 110.The bank retrieved the surveillance video, and she saw her son and a gorgeous girl transfer the money from her and his wife.

The money was originally intended to be spent mostly by his son.

Why should he be so impatient!
It broke her heart.

Mrs. Hua is a strong and face-saving person, she firmly suppressed the news, forced a smile on her face, and pretended that everything was as usual.It’s just that I like to tell people that life is too leisurely and boring, so it’s better to go out and “do life”.

After setting off enough atmosphere for herself, Mrs. Hua started working part-time.

By the time Lu Zhenzhong got to know Mrs. Hua, Mrs. Hua had already walked out of the pain caused by her son, and she was able to laugh about the past and call it a "little red guy".

The attitude of Mrs. Hua's husband?Mrs. Hua's husband is afraid of Mrs. Hua.In Shanghai, henpecked men are no longer ashamed to reveal that they are henpecked.Sister-in-law Hua's husband lives a life of eating more than a dozen yuan of rice wine anyway, whether the family has money or not.He didn't care from the bottom of his heart, he was somewhat watching from the other side, watching Mrs. Hua's jokes.Of course, dare not reveal.

Mrs. Hua doesn't want anyone to see her jokes.Including her husband.

Mrs. Hua, who looks rich on the surface but is actually poor, is more unable to refuse money than someone who has never been rich.Lu Zhenzhong firmly believed in this.

With a wave of his hand, Lu Zhenzhong boldly filled in the Arabic numeral "3" in the OA leave process.

Please take 3 days off.

Could it be that Mr. Xiao rushed to his house and pointed at his forehead and said "no approval"?
With disdain for the boss in his heart, Lu Zhenzhong turned off the OA system and closed the notebook.

After a night of rest, they are ready to leave tomorrow morning.

There is a taste of happiness in packing your luggage.

Early the next morning, the family of four set off for Danyang.It's faster by train, but easier by car.Lu Zhenzhong chose convenience because he has children after all.

On the way, Lu Zhenzhong and Sang Baiyue couldn't help imagining their sudden appearance, would it cause heated discussions?cause spread?Causing the villagers to scramble to watch?

The facts quickly proved that the greater the hope, the deeper the disappointment.

The small village under Danyang was easily found by following the navigation, but the village was almost deserted.Dilapidated walls and moss everywhere.I met an old man by chance and had to communicate by shouting.

Ask if there is a "Sang Sheng Ye" home?

The old man pointed casually and expressed in dialect that no one had come back long ago.

Fortunately, Sang Baiyue brought the genealogy and read the name according to the genealogy.The old man showed his toothless gums, smiled and shook his head.There is no possibility of the old man cheating, and there are not even a few wild dogs in the whole village.There are only two black cats, lazily basking in the sun on the top of the wall.

"Seven or eight days ago, did an old couple live in this village?" Lu Zhenzhong asked in a different way.

The old man still shook his head.The old man said that he would walk around the village seventy or eighty times a day, and no one who came from his house could escape his eyes.

Sang Baiyue has turned pale.

There was horror in her eyes.

Lu Zhenzhong quickly grabbed her waist, and secretly exerted force.

Saying goodbye to the old man, he helped Sang Baiyue back to the car.Sang Ziqi stared at his sister who was next to him with round eyes.Sang Zhenqi held up his iPad and showed his younger brother the fun and funny piggy Peggy.

After Sang Baiyue got into the co-pilot seat, she couldn't help wiping her tears with a tissue.When she cried, there was no sound at all.

Lu Zhenzhong comforted her dryly.don't worry.Maybe it was the wrong place.don't cry.Maybe it was a false alarm...

Searching for numbers in a hurry, calling my father-in-law and my mother-in-law, without exception, they are all "not in the service area".Lu Zhen's heart also gradually began to feel hairy.

Called a dozen times, but no one answered.

Lu Zhenzhong began to regret that something unexpected happened to the idea of ​​catching deserters.

Now it's all right, if you return in vain, I'm afraid that Sang Baiyue won't even be able to maintain her previous life, and will collapse completely.

The couple parked for a long time on the main road in front of the village, not knowing what to do next.

The car window was open, the refreshing wind blew in, and the clean air brushed over my face.Birdsong rang in my ears.

Immersed in the beautiful nature, there are only two children.

Lu Zhenzhong and Sang Baiyue discussed in low voices their parents' possible moves.But they had no clue.Just as he was frowning, Lu Zhenzhong's phone rang.

The moment the ringtone was remembered, the eyes of both of them lit up at the same time.

With just one glance, the flames in Lu Zhenzhong's eyes became precarious.

It was Mrs. Hua who called.

Why did Mrs. Hua call him at noon?
What he hesitated was only mentality, and the speed of answering the phone was not slow at all.

"Zhenzhong!"

Lu Zhenzhong's palms began to sweat.It doesn't sound right.

"Aren't you home these days?"

Lu Zhenzhong's throat tightened.The meaning of this sentence is also wrong.

"My mobile phone is broken. I sent you a message three days ago to ask you for leave. Didn't you receive it?"

It's black in front of you.

The world trembled.

This means that his mother has lived alone for three days and two nights.

I can't imagine what my mother eats, how she lives, and what she thinks during this period.She is still a mental patient who has not fully recovered.

On the main road in front of the small village under Danyang, the sun was shining brightly in the morning, but the mood fell into the darkest moment.With a mournful face, Lu Zhenzhong smiled at Sang Baiyue and said, "At least the two younger ones are with us, safe and sound."
