vines and melons

Chapter 25

The next day, Fang Qing's aftermath work was put on the agenda.

When anyone came to talk to Guizhi, she only said two words: whatever.I thought: Without people, what money do I need?Can money buy your life? !She has not smacked her teeth (eat) for three days.Someone persuaded her: If the adults don't eat it, the children should eat it anyway!She went to buy food and watched Fang Jie eat, and Fang Jie fed Fang Qiong after eating.Fang Qiong, who had just tasted the aroma of rice noodles, stretched out her hand and screamed when she saw her sister eating. Fang Jie broke off a little bun, put it in the vegetable soup, and then took it out with chopsticks and put it in her sister's mouth.Fang Jie, who is ignorant of the world, sees her mother, who does not eat or drink, shed tears every day. She does not know how to comfort her mother when she is young. Turning her face away, Fang Jie cried "Wow", and said in tears: "Mom, if you don't eat, you will die. Dad is dead. No one wants us anymore, and no one cares about grandparents! I want to go home and find my grandma..." The words awakened the dreamer!Fang Jie was right, a child cannot live without a mother without a father, and a mother-in-law cannot live without a daughter-in-law without a son. The reality does not allow her to be decadent!So, she hugged Fang Qiong, took Fang Jie's hand and walked out of the guest house, wanting to know something other than official affairs, and she remembered Fang Qing's best friend Lao Chen as she walked.

Lao Chen is from the Northeast, with an easy-going personality. He likes to eat hand-rolled noodles. Fang Qing will invite Lao Chen to come to his house for dinner as soon as Guizhi comes.

Coincidentally, as soon as Guizhi entered the entrance of the bureau, she saw Lao Chen talking to someone, and she forced a smile to greet Lao Chen, who knows, Lao Chen didn't even say hello, and turned away.Guizhi wondered, could it be that Lao Chen didn't see me?She comforted herself again, maybe Old Chen didn't recognize me!
She decided to look for Xiao Li.Xiao Li used to be Fang Qing's secretary. Last time, Fang Qing said that Xiao Li had been promoted.When she entered the office, Xiao Li hurriedly offered her a seat, served tea and water, and after exchanging pleasantries, Xiao Li raised his wrist to look at his watch and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry! You sit down first, I have important things to do outside! You sit down first!" Gui Zhi waited and waited, and when he got off work, he didn't see Xiao Li come back.The next day, she saw Xiao Li and greeted him from a distance, and Xiao Li waved away.With Fang Qing's departure, the kindness, courtesy and enthusiasm of the past disappeared.Later, Guizhi understood that they dared not talk too much to her rightist family!She led the two daughters back to the hotel in frustration, and she just waved her hand to anyone who spoke to her, without saying a word.

The agency was indifferent, and the helpless Guizhi sent a telegram to Fang Wannian.

After Fang Wannian received the telegram, his hands trembled, he was distraught, and he kept shouting: My God!What kind of evil is this!
