Rebirth at 70: I am the rough man’s treasure

With outsiders around, Wu Shengqian knew that Yang Xiaotian was thin-skinned and couldn't do anything intimate, so he patted her on the head and said in a low voice: "It's okay."

After comforting his wife, he said to the driver: "Brother, thank you."

The driver was beaten until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. He opened his mouth and gasped.He hurriedly said: "Brother, don't say that. If you want to thank me, it's me who wants to thank you. Without you, I would have died in this hellish place!"

"Yes, there are unscrupulous people in poor mountains and rivers, and there are a lot of roadblocks and robberies in this area. It's a good thing to be kind-hearted, but you should be more careful when you go out."

Wu Shengqian warned.

The driver gave him a thumbs up to show that he had learned a lesson.

Wu Shengqian's truck was not far ahead. When the driver took them to their destination, the two parties parted ways.

The young couple returned to their car and continued on their way.

After walking for more than two hours, they arrived at a small county town.

Calculating the distance, the village where that group of unruly people lived should belong to this county.

Yang Xiaotian and Wu Shengqian went into the city to buy things for the road ahead. When she saw a public phone in the supply and marketing cooperative, her heart immediately moved.

"Tell me, let's call the police and see if we can catch those deceitful people."

She discussed with Wu Shengqian in a low voice.

Wu Shengqian frowned and said, "Call the police? Will this work?"

Both of them were born and raised in a small village and had no intention of calling the police if something happened.

Yang Xiaotian could only think of calling the police because she heard Ye Zhengwen say it last time and remembered it in her heart.

She advised Wu Shengqian, "Let's give it a try. It only costs a few cents to make a phone call. If it really works, then we can save a lot of passing drivers, which is also a meritorious deed."

"My little wife, her consciousness is getting higher and higher." Wu Shengqian pinched her little nose, teased, and then said, "Then I'll listen to you, give it a try."

Yang Xiaotian was happy, gave the salesperson [-] cents, and dialed the local police number.

As the callers, they were asked to stay there for one night because they might be asked to cooperate with the investigation later.

It was already evening, and they had no intention of rushing any further, so they agreed happily.

The police said: "Our country's education level is not good now, and there are very few people who have the awareness to call the police. Thank you very much for providing such valuable clues. If you don't mind it at night, you can stay in the guest house of our Public Security Bureau."

"That's great! We also saved money!"

Yang Xiaotian's simple thoughts popped up again.

The police laughed and immediately told them the address.

In this way, they stayed in a free public guest house that night.

The conditions here are much better, especially the staff is clean and there is absolutely no such thing as small pieces of paper.

Wu Shengqian and Yang Xiaotian slept peacefully all night. Early the next morning, as soon as the young couple went out, they met the smiling police chief.

"Two comrades, thank you for the clues you provided. We have gone to the village involved overnight to investigate, and found robbed items from many villagers' homes. This is very direct physical evidence. After capturing them, separate them The trial also confirmed their criminal behavior.”

"This time, our bureau has made great contributions, and you two comrades have contributed even more to it. There is nothing else to give you here, just a banner as an encouragement to continue to support the work of our public security department in the future, ah?"

As the director said, he handed a bright banner to Wu Shengqian.

Wu Shengqian has been a thorn in his side since he was a child.

I didn't study hard when I was in school, and when I grew up, I didn't work honestly. I got into fights, stayed in class, and ran the black market...

After being a "bad guy" for almost 30 years, when he suddenly received such a banner, his heart felt warm, and even his eyes felt hot.

"Then...this is what we should do."

He took the banner unnaturally and said dryly.

The director looked at his fierce face and said with a smile: "Young man looks fierce, but he is also a good young man who abides by the law and knows the law! Don't look at people by their appearance!" He joked to Yang Xiaotian again, "Little girl, You are very lucky to have found such a reliable man."

Yang Xiaotian was embarrassed to answer, smiled shyly, and hid behind Wu Shengqian.

This time, the police not only handed out banners, but also invited four of them in a car to have breakfast.

After breakfast, they filled up the truck with gas before setting off again.

On the way, Lian Dagen took the banner and looked left and right, feeling very excited.He said with satisfaction: "Brother, tell me, we used to run away when we saw someone in uniform, for fear of being caught. In the blink of an eye, we have become a model being commended? We can also have breakfast with the police. !”

Lian Dagen had never committed any major crime, but he had been in jail because of petty crimes, going to the black market.

As a "bad guy" in the eyes of others, sometimes he can't hold his head high.

Looking at this banner now, I feel that I have made a big turnaround.

Wu Shengqian drove the car and said with a smile: "Isn't this all due to your sister-in-law? Without her, just the two of us would not be able to be role models or hold banners in the next life."

Yang Xiaotian also smiled and said to them: "Now you know that it is honorable to be a good person and do good deeds, right? Now that you know it, you must listen to me in the future and you are not allowed to fight with others, do you understand?"

"understood."

Wu Shengqian's helpless tone was mixed with a bit of doting.

Lian Dagen said as if he was playing tricks: "Sister-in-law's words are the truth! Implement them resolutely!"

Their car drove briskly and soon left the jurisdiction of this county.

Going further, there are mountains and forest belts, with few villages and small towns, and there is no place to stay after walking for a whole day and night.

But people and cars need to rest. In this case, we can only find a place with leeward wind and spend the night outside.

It was also God's fault. They had no place to live, and it rained heavily that night.

The back of the truck was full of sheepskins and they were afraid of water, so the four of them got busy and covered it with tarpaulin despite the wind and rain.

After this ordeal, they were all soaked, and they all looked like drowned rats.

The three men were fine. Once the rain stopped, they found some dry firewood to light and dry their clothes.

But Yang Xiaotian's body was weak, and the cold rain and cold wind blew her down, and she developed a serious fever that night.

Wu Shengqian touched her forehead, it was as hot as a stove, and he suddenly felt panicked.

"Little wife, wake up, open your eyes and look at me. Can you still talk?"

Yang Xiaotian opened her eyelids in confusion, looked at him blankly, and said hoarsely: "I feel uncomfortable."

Wu Shengqian felt extremely distressed. Fortunately, Yang Xiaotian was careful and brought some commonly used medicine before going out.

He quickly found antipyretic medicine for her to take and hugged her carefully all night.

The next morning, her high fever had subsided, but she still had no strength and no appetite at all. As soon as she put dry food in her mouth, she vomited it out immediately.

This made Wu Shengqian anxious.
