Zheng Zhongguang came over and continued playing with Tangtangguo. Here, Su Bai came over, squatted beside him, and glanced in the direction of the door.

"Is Minjie's family short of money again?"

Zheng Zhongguang nodded and said, "Well, he is the only one in his family. There are many things to do, so it is not easy."

Su Bai didn't answer.

The two played with Tangtang and Candy for a while. Su Bai suddenly stood up, took out a wad of money from his pocket, and handed it to Zheng Zhongguang.

The latter was stunned.

"You can spend it first and then pay it back to me next month. Otherwise, it can be used as part of buying a house. I have a lot of liquidity now, which is enough."

Zheng Zhongguang stared at the pile of money, shocked and moved.

He pursed his lips, and before he could ask, Su Bai continued to add.

"The postman sent a letter the day before yesterday. I thought it was mine, so I opened it. Uncle Zheng, I'm really sorry."

After saying this, Zheng Zhongguang stopped talking.

He was silent for a long time, sighed deeply, took the money from Su Bai's hand, turned around and went to the house.

Actually. The postman came once the day before yesterday to deliver a letter. Su Bai was checking the bills at that time. When a letter came over, he didn't say who it was from. He thought it was his own and opened it easily.

There are not many words in it, just a few lines, and they are still in traditional Chinese.

At this glance, he knew something was wrong.

Looking at the mailing address again, it was sent from Hong Kong City. The name of Zheng Zhongguang is also written in the recipient column.

He suddenly realized that he had taken it wrong.

People's curiosity is always instinctive. Another thing is that there were not many words on the letter. Su Bai read a few lines and frowned. The whole article has only one meaning. If you are short of money or need money, send it quickly.

And the tone is skillful, and you can tell at a glance that this is definitely a habit that has been practiced for many years.

After a while, the meal was ready, but Ye Minjie hadn't come back yet, so Su Bai left a separate portion for him and put it on the stove to heat.

A group of people eat together.

Zheng Zhongguang took out a bottle of Erguotou, poured a glass, handed it to Su Bai, and then poured himself another glass.

"Drink some, and let's chat."

Su Bai nodded and clinked a glass with him. Just as he took a sip, he saw Zheng Zhongguang raised his head and drank the entire glass of wine.

Before Su Bai could speak, Zheng Zhongguang poured another glass, said nothing, and drank again.

"They have been going to Hong Kong City for many years. In my life, I have no wish. I just want to see for myself and see how they are doing..."

The conversation is open, and the past is like a torrent, mixed with the anguish that has settled over time, rushing out in an instant.

Zheng Zhongguang was indeed in the wrong team.

When he was full of passion and devoted to serving the country, he was led in by a big brother.

He is always the first to go into battle to kill the enemy and charge into battle.

In the snowy ground, he could lie in wait for a day and a night with dry food, and two of his toes were frozen off.

Bullets flew past his ears, and his eyes turned red.

It was not until the end of the war and the outbreak of civil war that he increasingly felt that the ranks were corrupt.

So, he surrendered.

I originally thought that my surrender would gain respect and trust.

I never expected to find myself in a dilemma.

In front of him, he was a traitor and betrayer; here, he became a person with a shameful history.

Who dares to use him?

Even with his wife and two children, he was ostracized and insulted.

Rumors, murderous blades, and the most terrifying thing is a knife without blood.

In the last few years of turmoil, large numbers of people fled.

Boat tickets were once priced at ten large yellow croakers each.

Zheng Zhongguang knew that he could not leave. He spent all his belongings, bought three ferry tickets, and sent his wife and a pair of children to the port city.

We parted with tears. I thought it would be easy to meet each other, but I never imagined that it would be decades before we were apart.

"Over there in Hong Kong City, prices are too high and life is not easy. All my savings over the years have been sent there."

"Working as a janitor only costs 20 yuan a month. The things left by my ancestors, I sold what should be sold and what shouldn't be sold. Now I really can't survive, so I plan to sell the courtyard house."

Zheng Zhongguang said, wiping away his tears with a sad and emotional expression.

"This is my root, my root..."

He has been imprisoned here for decades. Let alone go to Hong Kong City, even if he leaves the province, he will be questioned repeatedly by his superiors.

This is how I will be for the rest of my life.

His only wish is that his wife and children can live happily.

After finishing speaking, everyone was silent for a long time.

Zheng Zhongguang has also drank more than half a bottle of wine.

He was a little drunk.

He turned slightly sideways, propped up his head, and looked at the deep dusk and the vast sky. There were mountains and seas there, as well as his wife and children whom he missed day and night, in countless silent and deep nights.

He often thinks about it. If he had known that we would not be able to see each other for decades after we parted ways, would he have left with him regardless of everything?

Zheng Zhongguang poured another glass of wine and drank it.

he thinks.

I'm afraid there is no solution.

………………

after one day. The newspapers published the news about the arrest of the two murderers, and the whole country celebrated.

You must know that this is the first major serial case since the founding of the People's Republic of China. The methods are cruel and extremely cruel. Countless manpower and material resources have been sacrificed to pursue the case for a long time, but the case has not been closed.

Panic.

Now that he was caught and the gangster was arrested, everyone felt relieved instantly.

At the same time, newspapers published about the arrest of gangsters and attracted the attention of countless people.

A name called Su Bai successfully made them remember it. Because of fear of retaliation, no photos were published, but this does not prevent people from spreading word of mouth and praising each other.

Su Bai also experienced the feeling of being a "hero".

Sulu Electrical Appliances Store.

Since its opening, business has been booming. Because the one-year warranty and the price are lower than those in department stores, 60% of the business in Xidan Commercial Street is divided up by Sulu Electric Store.

At this moment, Fang Ge’s electrical appliance store.

Fang Yunliang squatted at the door. From a distance, I watched the people coming and going in the Sulu Electrical Appliance Store. It was very lively. Everyone who went in basically brought something with them when they came out.

In the 1980s, the economy began to pick up.

Although other places are still struggling to have enough food and clothing, in the capital, a gap between rich and poor has begun to appear.

Those with many tricks have bulging pockets. Let alone electrical appliances, even imported stores treat them as snack shops.

A pair of socks cost tens of yuan, jeans cost one or two hundred yuan, and even high-end electrical appliances cost tens of thousands.

Therefore, the consumption power is still very considerable.

………………

"Brother Fang."

On the side, Qiang Fei also squatted down while carrying two dough pancakes.

He paused, his face looked a little ugly, and he hesitated for a moment before speaking:

"Dongzi got into a fight with someone. He called the police and wanted to pay for it. He's waiting for us at the police station right now."

"A fight started?"

Fang Yunliang finally turned to look at Qiang Fei, frowned and said, "What's going on?"

"I met that group of people from Sanlitun. They were playing billiards and vying for space. When they started making trouble, they took action."

Qiang Fei added: "The billiards court was smashed, and the police came and said that each of us and them would pay half of the compensation."

"Dongzi has no money. He has been imprisoned for a day and is just waiting for us to go."

Fang Yunliang choked.
