don't cry

Chapter 45

To be honest, there is really a lot of rain in this place. In spring, it rains lightly from time to time. As soon as summer comes, the rain starts to fall.It is often not sunny for several days in a row. Even if we live on a high floor, the damp will reappear from time to time, and the things in the house have to be taken out to dry whenever the weather is sunny.

During the Dragon Boat Festival, there was also constant rain. For me, a northerner, this is the first time I have seen it.I'm a grown man, and I don't know how to make zongzi. Du Wei is busy and has no time to make zongzi. During the Dragon Boat Festival, I still rely on Xiao Shen's family to help me, so I only have a few zongzi to eat.The place where I work also distributes zongzi, but they are not as good as those made by Xiaoshen's mother. They are big and have a lot of meat, and some have added salted egg yolk.

Du Wei has become more and more diligent in the past month, running outside almost every day, rarely resting.Seeing him working so hard, I feel distressed and worried about his body. Although he is in a good shape, he can't stand it.

It seems that the last time I met Pixia, Du Wei has been desperately earning money, and I don't know what Pixia revealed to him to make him work so hard.

A while ago, I went to other provinces to take the re-examination for translation. Du Wei was so busy that he almost kept his feet on the ground, so he still insisted on sending me to other provinces.How could I be willing to let him take it to such a far place? I just asked him to send it to the train station for me, and I went there by myself.

Regarding the re-examination, I personally feel pretty good, and now I am waiting for the results to come out and get the certificate.After getting the certificate, he can take on a few more jobs and share some with Du Wei.

The exam results came out in July, and I passed. Du Wei was so happy that I didn't do much, and insisted on inviting Xiao Shen and the others to come out and celebrate.

I have already quit my job in the coffee shop. This job is too strenuous. Standing for a whole day is a hard job, and it is not what I am worth.In the future, I will do some translation at home.When I resigned, Pi Qiu asked me why, and I told him that his sister-in-law was about to give birth, and I was too busy, so I had to quit my job to take care of her.

As a result, Piqiu told Xiaoshen's sister, and Xiaoshen's sister told Xiaoshen again. During the party celebration, Xiaoshen asked me with a smile: "Xiaojiang, when did you get married? Why didn't you tell us?" , I heard that your wife is going to give birth, why is there no news at all? My sister even asked me if I want to go to the hospital to see your wife or something. "

Immediately, I felt a little embarrassed, and glanced at Du Wei, who also looked at me with a smile on his face as if he was watching a joke.I hurriedly said to Xiao Shen: "I've been with Du Wei for so long, it's time to have a baby, right? It's just that Du Wei is not a woman."

Du Wei leaned over and said in a low voice: "You are not right, if you want to give birth, you should give birth."

Xiao Shen laughed out loud, and then asked Du Wei: "I heard from my uncle that you don't plan to do freight anymore?"

Du Wei nodded: "There will be no delivery in September, there are other things to do."

I looked at him in surprise, Du Wei never told me about it.

"What else?" Xiao Shen asked him.

"It's hard to say now, many things have not yet been settled."

When I got home, I asked Du Wei: "You stopped doing freight and went to do other things, so why didn't you discuss it with me?"

"Didn't I say it, it's hard to say about it, I told you in advance, I'm afraid you'll be happy for nothing."

I thought about it and asked him, "Is it related to that Pisha?"

Du Wei nodded.

I pondered for a while, Du Wei probably intends to cooperate with the government, no wonder he has worked so hard for the past two months, probably to earn the funds he will invest in the early stage, but, "Is Pixia reliable?"

"Don't worry about that, Pixia is a reliable person, otherwise how could he get into the eyes of the Gu family, so you can rest assured to hand over your daughter to him."

I nodded and said to Du Wei: "Don't work too hard."

"No, I'm much better now. I'm going to another province next week, let's go together, go out and have fun, what do you think?"

I hummed, I was really looking forward to being able to hang out with Du Wei.

During this spare time, I found two more jobs on the Internet, and the price they offered me was lower than that of Tao’s brother’s company, but these two companies are more reliable, and the price will increase in the future .

I printed out all the materials to be translated, put them in a folder, packed some clothes, cards, ID cards, and prepared to go out with Du Wei.

I was really excited, I got up early, packed up my things, and got into the car with Du Wei.After Du Wei went to the factory to load the goods, he drove out of the city with me.

It has been raining for a while, but the weather is still relatively cool.When the two of us passed the bridge at the exit of the city, Du Wei glanced out the window, frowned and asked me, "Has there ever been a flood in this place?"

"Xiao Shen said that there was a flood in the [-]s, but it never happened again. What's the matter?"

"I look at this bridge. If there is a flood, it is likely to be washed away."

"Don't talk nonsense."

"No nonsense, you forgot what my profession is, and this place is often affected by typhoons. If there is a flood, the bridge will be finished. The traffic path will be cut off, and the people in that city will be trapped inside. People outside can't come in even if they want to rescue them."

I looked at the bridge outside with some unease, and said, "It should be fine, Xiao Shen and his family have lived here for many years, and nothing has happened."

Du Wei didn't speak any more, drove out of the toll gate, got on the expressway, and went to other provinces.Du Wei didn't drive fast. I worked in the car all afternoon and finished a translation. After the sky gradually darkened, Du Wei told me not to read any more, so as not to hurt my eyes.

I put away the materials and put them in the file folder. The scenery outside the car window was also dimmed. The fields, crops, forests and mountains gradually became dark and blurred in the twilight. I was a little bored, so I turned to chat with Du Wei.

Du Wei asked me: "Did you introduce Pi Xia's brother to Xiao Shen's sister?"

I hummed and said, "Yeah, how do you know everything?"

"These two people are likely to get married. When they get married, the Shen family and the Pi family will be in-laws." Du Wei touched my head: "When the time comes, Xiao Shen, how should I thank you as a matchmaker?"

"Why do you thank me?" I still couldn't figure it out.

"Think about it, Pixia is the secretary of the municipal party committee, and he loves his younger brother so much. How can he make his sister-in-law's family suffer? Then he must help the Shen family, you see."

I thought about it, and what Du Wei said was indeed very reasonable.I was very happy to be able to help Xiao Shen. Xiao Shen was so miserable that he had to go out to work before finishing his studies to support his younger siblings. It was really not easy.

When Du Wei and I arrived at the place, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening. Du Wei delivered the goods, parked the car, and took me to the hotel for the night.We are both men, and we asked for a single room. The little girl at the front desk looked at us with a look of curiosity and inquiry.

Du Wei was generous and open-minded, and let her look at her frankly. I was a little embarrassed at first, but seeing Du Wei as indifferent, I didn't care. Anyway, no one here knows me, no one can say me, It's nothing to care about even if you point and point behind your back.

Du Wei put his luggage away, and took me out to the night market together.This place is much busier than ours. Even though it was almost eleven o'clock, there were still so many people, as if the day had just begun.

Du Wei was afraid that I would get lost with him, so he held my hand.He has probably been to this place a few times, and he can speak a little local dialect. He bargained with the vendors on the street in local dialect, which made me grin.

The little girl who sold things guessed that she couldn't bear it, so she spoke Mandarin and negotiated the price with Du Wei.Du Wei took two popsicles, paid for them, and dragged me forward.

The two of us sat down at a food stall on the street, ordered some local snacks, served two bottles of beer, and chatted while eating.Du Wei told me that in September, the government planned to use the long-abandoned land next to the People's Park to build a house. Du Wei wanted to get the project off the ground, but the funds were not enough. If the money is enough for the initial investment, give him the project.

I frowned and thought for a while, then asked him, "How much does this initial investment cost?"

"I put in 15 myself, and other governments will allocate it from the budget."

"15, our passbook is now about [-] to [-], and your car is sold, and it is estimated that it is only [-] to [-]. How about borrowing some money from Xiao Shen?"

Du Wei blinked at me.

I didn't understand and looked at him in bewilderment.

Du smiled, and said, "Borrow Xiao Shen's money, why not ask him to do it together? If he is willing to work together, then Pixia will take care of it."

I nodded and asked him again: "Then are you sure? Don't drag people in and make them lose money."

Du Wei took a sip of beer and said, "I worked with Ling Yun before. Didn't I study mechanical engineering? I designed the drawings. If I was a novice, then Pixia wouldn't trust me me."

I nodded, thinking that as long as Du Wei was sure, I would go back and ask Xiao Shen to see if he was willing.

As a result, I haven't contacted Xiao Shen yet, and he called me the next day.Du Wei and I were walking down the street when my cell phone rang.I changed my hand and let Du Wei hold it, took out the phone, and gave a hello, and Xiao Shen's voice came from over there.

"Xiaojiang, the one you introduced to my sister, who is that Pikachu?"

"He's called Piqiu, not Pikachu, what's wrong? He's just an ordinary person."

"Ordinary people... But this morning, someone from his family came and said it was his brother, who came to propose marriage to him. You know about his brother's fight... My mother and my sister can't recover now. His brother is Who is it? It can't be gangsters..."

I burst out laughing, and said, "His brother is the secretary of our city, why didn't Ball tell your sister? I thought he would..."

"You... why didn't you say it earlier, it's all about marriage and we don't know until we get married. At the beginning you said that she was an ill-fated person..."

"I didn't. What I said was the truth. He had no father or mother. He was raised by his brother, and his mother was also sick. I didn't lie to you."

"Then what do you think we should do now? His brother has come to propose marriage. What age is he still doing this? Then the matchmaker should be a woman..." Xiao Shen muttered on the other end.

"His elder brother treats his younger brother like a treasure, and he must be at ease when he proposes marriage. I guess it was because Pi Qiu was too embarrassed to say it himself, so he let his brother talk about it. Since everyone has come to propose marriage, you can put your sister Get married, didn't your sister graduate in June? Just take the graduation certificate and marriage certificate together."

"But...what if my sister gets bullied after marrying her?" Xiao Shen was quite hesitant.

"I think you still have to ask your sister to see if she is willing to marry. If she is not willing to get married too early, she should book the marriage first."

"Then I'll ask Wen Yu." Xiao Shen said a few words and hung up the phone.

I put away my phone with a smile, and told Du Wei about it, and I thought it was funny while talking, Xiao Shen usually looks calm and composed, but when it comes time to marry my younger sister, it’s like marrying a daughter, In a hurry.

The two of us went back to the city the next day. I heard that Xiao Shen’s sister and Pi Qiu had already made a marriage agreement. Du Wei and I both went to the engagement banquet. What should you say to me.

Pi Qiu was very happy to see me, and asked me why I didn't bring my sister-in-law over. I glanced at Du Wei, saw that he wasn't looking at me, and was talking to Pi Xia, so I hurriedly said in a low voice, "Your sister-in-law is confinement. son."
