Reborn 1990: Running towards the life of a housewife

"As I said, this is your son's house. You can come if you have any problem. We welcome you at any time." Shen Xiaojun said calmly.

Lin Chengcai stood at the door and patted the dust off his body, "Your mother didn't treat you, she treated Lin Zhe. We came here because of Lin Zhe."

"Lin Zhe?"

Lin Chengcai sighed, "That's him. Have you been in contact with him during this time?"

"He called back a few days ago, but I didn't receive it. He asked someone to tell him that he was busy and would contact him when he had time. ...What happened to him?"

Shen Xiaojun thought about the phone at home that hadn't rang in the past few days. If he received the message she left, he wouldn't even have time to make a call...

Looking at the old couple's current appearance, could something happen to Lin Zhe?

Looking down at his uneasy daughter, Shen Xiaojun rushed them into the room, "Go in and do your homework. Xiaoyue writes a big letter, and Xiaowei does the holiday homework assigned by the teacher. Mom and grandparents have something to say."

Xiaowei took her sister into the house and turned around, and Shen Xiaojun closed the door.

Then he asked: "Dad, Mom, have you heard anything?"

I just couldn’t let go after hearing about it!Lin Chengcai wiped his face, knowing that Shen Xiaojun didn't want his children to know, so he lowered his voice, "This morning, the son of Lao He's family in the village called back and asked his father to bring us a message saying that something happened to Lin Zhe in Yangcheng and he was killed. He's in jail! Your mother and I were so anxious that we couldn't contact him. We even asked for the He family's son's phone number and called him to ask. They said that Lin Zhe had a fight with someone in Yangcheng and had a knife and was injured. people!"

Lin Chengcai spoke louder and louder, patting his thigh as he spoke, "What do you mean this is? Why doesn't he know how to calm down? He only knows how to find trouble for me! He doesn't even think about his wife and children at home."

After scolding Lin Zhe, he said, "We originally asked your second brother to come and ask if you knew. If he wanted to go to Yangcheng, let him go. But your second brother has been away for the past few days. You The second sister-in-law couldn't find anyone either, so your mother and I simply came over by ourselves. We couldn't explain it clearly on the phone. See if you can contact someone in Yangcheng and ask if what happened to Lin Zhe is serious. What did you say? It’s easy for us to deal with it.”

Zhang Simin, who was sitting next to her, was already wiping away tears, "What if I really go to jail?"

Lin Chengcai cursed in a rough voice: "What should we do? What else can we do! Who asked him to fight like a fool? He even uses a knife, how can he be so good! He thought he was seventeen or eighteen years old! How old is he? ? Last time I came back, I thought he had improved, became sensible, and even bought a house and became a city dweller. Look how long it has only been? This kid can't help but praise, and he deserves to be in jail!"

Lin Chengcai's character was not good. He believed that filial sons emerge from the stick. His sons were often beaten when they were young, so he raised his first daughter to be more pampered. Unfortunately, his daughter was even more ignorant than his son, and he could not see him for a year. Both sides.

"How can you talk like this?" Zhang Simin quit. Why is it all her fault?

"You've never been to that place in Yangcheng. How do you know that it was my son who picked this problem? If someone beats him, will he stand and be beaten?"

Pointing at Lin Chengcai, his hand trembled, "You have been like this all your life. No matter what happens, you will scold your own baby first. Other people's babies are all good, and the bad ones were all born to me. You never stand in front of your own family." , when I had a quarrel with Li Lihua, you always talked about me. Your brother’s family are all good people! The sons I gave birth to also had to be scolded and beaten by you. Tell me how many beatings your sons received from you when they were young! "

Lin Chengcai stomped his feet when he was told, "We are talking about Lin Zhe, why are you bringing up the past?"

"I can't say anything! What you said is wrong, I'm going to speak!"

Seeing that the two of them were quarreling more and more fiercely, Shen Xiaojun quickly tried to persuade her, "Dad, Mom, let's talk about leaving Lin Zhe first. Lin Zhe's matter is important."

The old couple stopped talking, and Zhang Simin hurriedly asked Shen Xiaojun: "Do you have any way to contact Lin Zhe's friends? That Xiao Zhou who helped repair the house last time, isn't he on good terms with Lin Zhe? Please contact him. "

Shen Xiaojun frowned: "I don't have Xiao Zhou's contact information either."

As for others, let alone others, even if she and Lin Zhe had common friends in Yangcheng, she, a reborn person, would not remember their contact information.

Shen Xiaojun stood up and said, "I'm looking for a phone book."

I seem to have dug out a small notebook when I moved, but I didn't even open it to look at it at that time. I just stuffed it away somewhere in my busy schedule.

Shen Xiaojun went in and rummaged through the cabinet drawers, and actually asked her to dig out a green leather notebook.

When I opened it, I saw a lot of messy stuff written inside, such as who borrowed how much money at a certain time, when they paid it back, who borrowed it but didn't pay it back, and what she borrowed from someone else, etc.

There are also paragraphs written on it, which I probably jotted down after hearing other people say something interesting.

There are also some phone numbers. Most of the names on them are no longer memorable. Looking at the numbers, they almost belong to Yangcheng.

Twenty years later, if the handwriting hadn't shown to be hers, she wouldn't have been able to remember that she had recorded these things back then.

She went out with a small book and looked at the phone numbers one by one in front of the old couple.

Zhang Simin leaned her head over to take a look, "There are so many numbers, they are all from Yangcheng. You call them first and ask them one by one to see if you can help?"

There is no contact information for Xiao Zhou in the small book. This is normal. Xiao Zhou, like Lin Zhe, goes to another construction site after finishing work at this construction site. The phone number is not fixed. Where did the number come from? Xiao Zhou seems to not even have a beeping machine.

The most recorded numbers in this small book are private beep machine numbers. There are no numbers for Big Brother. There are also fixed phone numbers, but Shen Xiaojun suspects that most of them are work numbers.

The people she and Lin Zhe knew so far were generally working in Yangcheng like them. There were very few locals, so those who could have her numbers written down in her book should be close friends.

And how many out-of-towners who work outside the home install fixed phones in their rental houses?

almost none.

It is not advisable to leave messages on the beep machine. You can only try calling.

Shen Xiaojun found the number of a person she and Lin Zhe were still communicating with 20 years later and called the number. Sure enough, when she answered the phone, it was from the factory.

When it was said that someone would call back later, Shen Xiaojun suddenly said no and hung up the phone.

"Why did you hang up the phone? Why did you say no!" Zhang Simin asked anxiously.

Shen Xiaojun thought for a while and said, "I'm going to Yangcheng!"

The old couple looked at each other, and then they mentioned that she was going to Yangcheng.

"Mom and Dad, I thought about it. We don't know anything about the situation now. We can't reach the people we should contact. It's not good to call everywhere. It doesn't do any good if everyone knows about it."

The old couple thought the same thing. Being locked up by the police was not an honorable thing in the first place. It was hard to hide it, because there was no way it could be publicized everywhere.

When I thought about it, everyone in the village must have known that the He family was also a big talker, and they didn't know what they were talking about Lin Zhe now.

"Then can you go to Yangcheng? The second brother is not at home. How about asking the boss to take leave and go with you?"

Shen Xiaojun shook his head, "No, I'll go by myself. Then I'll ask my friends over there for help."

Nothing like this happened in her previous life. This incident went beyond Lin Zhe's original trajectory. Rather than letting someone else think about it at home, it would be better for her to go and see for herself what was going on!

The old couple were still worried that Shen Xiaojun would go to Yangcheng alone and called Lin Rui to come over.

Lin Rui arrived quickly, and he didn't go to work during the New Year's Day holiday.

On the phone, the old couple briefly talked about what happened to Lin Zhe, and he already knew it.

"Can you ask for leave? Go to Yangcheng with Xiaojun."

Lin Rui was a little embarrassed, "I only have two people in this position. By coincidence, the other one went into the hospital for surgery the day before yesterday and was unable to go to work for a short time. Now I am doing the work of both of them by myself. If I Ask for leave again..."

The leader will definitely not approve!

Unless it is a major matter of birth, old age, illness and death, obviously, Lin Zhe's matter has not reached that point yet.

As a result, the old couple had no choice.

Shen Xiaojun said again: "I can go alone. I am familiar with Yangcheng and I have so many friends there. Nothing will happen. Don't worry."

The old couple looked at each other and that was all.

"I went to Yangcheng for a few days, and my parents didn't go back. They just stayed in the city to help me look after these children. I just happened to take advantage of these few days to wean Yaoyao, Xiaowei and Xiao Yueming. In two days, I have to go to the Children's Palace for classes on the weekend. I will post the class schedule on the wall and you can send them there according to the class time."

Lin Rui also said: "Your sister-in-law and I come here to see you every day."

He also said that he had an acquaintance at the train station and that he could call him now and ask for a ticket.

Shen Xiaojun said: "Then I'm sorry to you, brother. It's better to leave early than to leave late. I'll leave tomorrow. Save me a berth."

Lin Rui agreed, picked up the phone on the table and made a call.

The old couple also nodded: "Okay, it's settled. Anyway, it's a slack time for farming, and there's not much work to do in the fields. Let your second sister-in-law go over and feed the animals at home every day."

Shen Xiaojun was reassured that they would take care of the child and ask her to call back if anything happened.

Zhang Simin now feels that this phone is worth installing and not too expensive.

Shen Xiaojun smiled: "What am I worried about? Of the children at home, they were not raised by grandparents."

Xiaowei and Xiaoyue ran out of the room, hugged their mother's legs, and said with tears in their big eyes, "Mom, are you leaving again?"

The two children were afraid that their mother would take a long, long time to come back as she did before.

Shen Xiaojun knelt down and said, "Mom, go find dad. He will be back soon."

"Really?" The two sisters looked at her aggrievedly.

"Really! Mom will come back with dad when the time comes!"

"Hmm..." He pursed his lips and nodded with tears in his eyes.

"Listen to your grandparents at home, study hard in class, and do your homework after school. Mom will be back soon..."

"knew……"

In the evening, the family had a tasteless dinner. After the meal, Shen Xiaojun began to pack his luggage. Someone had already bought the tickets for the train tomorrow morning.

The winter in Yangcheng is not cold. Shen Xiaojun did not pack particularly thick cotton clothes, but just packed two sets of suitable clothes. He left some living expenses for his family and put his green leather notebook into his luggage bag.

Early the next morning, Shen Xiaojun said goodbye to the tearful child and boarded the train going south.

The current trains are still green, and the latest trip to Yangcheng takes 48 hours.

Therefore, it was already the morning of the third day when Shen Xiaojun arrived in Yangcheng.

I put the two uneaten packs of instant noodles into my luggage bag and got off the train with the bag in hand.

After leaving the train station and taking a quick look, it is no exaggeration to say that the current Yangcheng and the future Yangcheng are earth-shaking. When Shen Xiaojun looked at everything in front of him, he felt like there was gold everywhere.

With the money she has now, she can buy two small apartments in a more remote part of Yangcheng. In 20 years, the price will rise to 300 to [-] million yuan.

But after buying it, I ran out of money...

Shen Xiaojun shook his head. The most important thing now was Lin Zhe's matter.

Two hours ago, Shen Xiaojun came to a certain public security bureau in the district. After thinking about it carefully, Lin Zhe should have been active in this area in those years.

When she came to this area, Shen Xiaojun opened up her past memories. Before becoming pregnant with Yaoyao, she had worked in an electronics factory in this area for several years.

She just thought that if something happened to Lin Zhe, the Public Security Bureau would definitely have records.

Unexpectedly, before she entered the door, a person walked in front of her. Who else could it be if it wasn't Zhou Wei?

"Xiao Zhou."

Zhou Wei looked decadent and lowered his head to think about something. He had traveled to several places in the past few days but could not find a way to get Brother Lin out. Brother Lin said again that he would not give money no matter what, even if he was imprisoned. Don't let the person named Wang Ruyi!

When he heard someone calling him, he didn't pay attention, thinking that the person called him by mistake.

Shen Xiaojun called again in his hometown dialect, "Zhou Wei."

Zhou Wei raised his head, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law?"

Rubbing his eyes, he saw it right, it was really his sister-in-law!

He took a few steps forward and said, "Sister-in-law, why are you here? You are here to see Brother Lin. Brother Lin is not in Yangcheng. He has something to do..."

"Okay." Shen Xiaojun interrupted him, "I already know that something happened to Lin Zhe."

If Lin Zhe wanted to let his family know, he would have called back to explain the matter clearly and let everyone think of a solution, without asking them to think about it at home.

Zhou Wei scratched his head in embarrassment, "Sister-in-law, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but Brother Lin specifically told me not to tell my family."

"What's going on? Tell me clearly."

"It's a long story." The two of them found a flower bed and sat down.

After half an hour, Shen Xiaojun finally understood.

After Lin Zhe came to Yangcheng, it was not as simple as he said. He could get a job just by looking for it and start working as his contractor again.

He had been here for almost a month, but he still hadn't received any work. With no choice, he and Zhou Wei started working as temporary workers on the construction site while looking for opportunities.

Shen Xiaojun thought, no wonder he was so tired when he called back.

Lin Zhe was so smart that he was talking about something here. Last month, he actually got a small project.

Once the project was received, he had to find someone. Lin Zhe thought that based on his friendship with everyone, the brothers he had worked with before would not just open their mouths and follow suit.

Unfortunately not.
