Chapter 187

When she left, she didn't know that the danger was coming, and she was still walking deeper into the alley.

What Simon Huo said is right. Qingshi Lane is a slum in Kyoto. Almost all the people living here are from the bottom of the society, so the law and order are relatively chaotic, because there are many things that even the police can't control.

Huo Zheng's ex-husband lives here, which shows how bad things have been all these years.

As soon as Shi Hua walked in, she heard two women arguing, and the curse words were not repeated throughout.

She listened to it for a while, and found it funny, as if she had returned to the countryside.

In the countryside, many women are well versed in the rules of swearing. For them, swearing is very simple. It probably takes the mother as the center and the relatives as the radius, radiating 360 degrees in all directions.

The two women were furiously cursing, when they suddenly found an outsider watching a play, they immediately stopped, went back to their room cursing, and closed the door loudly.

Shi Hua bent her lips and looked at the area for a while, finally getting a general idea of ​​the situation.

All the people living here are migrant workers. Many women's husbands are not even at home and only come back once every few years. Therefore, in order to protect themselves, the women have become very aggressive.

She took out the photo and looked at it, and soon found out where Pan Yue lived.

Pan Yue was very good-looking when he was young. Although he had no money, he didn't want to mess around in this place, and he didn't know what happened in these years.

Shi Hua didn't knock on the door hastily. After all, everyone in the upper class knew about Pan Yue's beating of Huo Zheng. If she provoked someone now, she wouldn't be able to get away today.

So today I just came over to see and feel what's going on here.

The door opened quickly, and Pan Yue walked out from inside.

Shi Hua held his photo in her hand, but the first time she saw the photo, she couldn't believe that a man with this appearance would beat up a woman.

Pan Yue's appearance is very elegant, even in his bones there is a kind of humility and courtesy.

Shi Hua leaned on the corner and watched for a long time, almost seeing through Pan Yue's body, and couldn't tell that this was a man who beat his wife.

She was almost certain at a glance that there must have been difficulties in what happened back then.

Just as she was about to walk over, she saw another woman coming out of the room with a vitriolic expression on her face.

"What are you still doing standing here?! What's the use of reading so many books! In the end, you didn't come to this place, eating and drinking our food in my house all these years, and ended up doing something so procrastinated! This afternoon Wash the pile of clothes, sweep all the ground at home, and help with the affairs of the factory, don't really think of yourself as a member of this family!"

Pan Yue's face was full of forbearance, his eyebrows were beating wildly, and finally he made a sound.

"Sister-in-law, I lent money to my brother to buy this house. I don't break the law if I live here."

The woman's face was angry, and she kicked him directly in anger.

"You borrowed money?! What kind of money do you have to lend us?! You were scammed by that woman back then, and you didn't dare to make a sound when she cheated on you. You forgive me again and again, and finally put your own reputation in it, you Look at how that woman treats you. After she climbs a high branch, she completely blocks you! You can't find a job outside, and a dignified college student lives in this alley. You think you are ashamed!!"

Pan Yue's eyes were scarlet instantly, thinking of Huo Zheng, his heart was filled with hatred.

"Sister-in-law, it is true that I lent the money for the house to my eldest brother, but I didn't pay the IOU because I trusted him at the time. If you don't believe me, ask brother."

As soon as he finished speaking, Pan Ming came out.

Pan Ming's face was full of calculations, but he still patted him on the shoulder earnestly.

"Pan Yue, I really can't remember the money. Tell me about you. Brothers should also settle accounts. If there is such a thing, they should issue the IOU so that neither party will forget. You Right? Now that you live in my house, I don’t miss your food and clothing, and I will trouble you with the factory affairs. If you can make money, I will definitely give you dividends.”

He has no culture, and he doesn't know how to run any factories at all, thanks to Pan Yue here.

Now everything is ready in the factory, as long as they can earn money in the future, their family can move out of this dilapidated place, and then they will experience the life of rich people.

When the woman next to her heard that she was going to pay dividends to Pan Yue, she immediately caught Pan Ming's ear.

"What kind of dividend?! Even if I throw away my money, I won't give it to him! You two brothers are really useless compared to each other. If you try to fight, why do I still keep this trash!!"

Pan Ming laughed along, not daring to speak.

After all, the money to start the factory was paid by the woman, so he was just running errands at most, and Pan Yue was the real think tank.

Pan Yue's face turned blue and white, and his eyes were also boiling with anger.

But in the end, he still endured, "I know."

The woman cursed a few more words before going out.

Pan Yue was the only one left in this place in a blink of an eye, so Shi Hua approached and looked him up and down.

"Uncle Pan?"

She was a little uncertain, even the moment she saw the photo, she didn't realize it until now, isn't this a neighbor from her hometown?

It's just that I haven't seen her for many years. I heard that they are developing very well in the city. I didn't expect that the person who married Huo Zheng was actually Uncle Pan!
When she was young, as soon as her mother left, she and her grandmother had nothing to rely on, and the relatives at home couldn't tolerate her, and often robbed her of food, leaving her hungry.

She didn't dare to tell her grandma, for she was afraid that her grandma would be worried.

Uncle Pan next door would always secretly stuff him with steamed buns, boiled corn, and sometimes even pocket money.

She didn't know his name, she just called him Uncle Pan.

I heard that this Uncle Pan is very capable, he is a top student who graduated from a prestigious university, and he has a beautiful and rich second-generation wife, he can be regarded as a winner in life.

But the strange thing was that Uncle Pan had been in the country during that time, his face was a bit haggard, and he rarely mentioned his affairs in Kyoto.

In addition, she was still young, immersed in the grief of not having a mother all day long, and this memory gradually blurred.

Counting it now, Uncle Pan had already divorced Huo Zheng at that time, and Huo Zheng had already married Xu Maosong at that time, and had a son who was a few years old.

This son is Xu Changan, after all, she is not a few years older than Xu Changan.

Just now she heard from that woman that Uncle Pan was banned, that is to say, after Huo Zheng married Xu Maosong, he discredited Uncle Pan's image and made people trouble him everywhere, so that Uncle Pan had to hide in the countryside?

"you are?"

Pan Yue didn't know the woman in front of him. After all, he didn't spend much time in the country, so he couldn't remember how he accidentally helped a little girl.

"Uncle Pan, I'm Shihua."

Pan Yue's eyes lit up instantly, but then his face became embarrassed, "It's you."

People in my hometown said that he did well in other places, and every time he came home, everyone scrambled to flatter him.

It was the same when he went back that time. Later, everyone accidentally found out what happened to him, so they slandered him behind his back and satirized him.

He originally went back to the countryside to seek refuge, but after hearing the news, he also knew that he could not stay there, so he returned to Kyoto.

Huo Zheng did a great job, almost eliminating the possibility of him going to work again.

In desperation, he thought of his relatives in Kyoto. After defecting to them, he hid in Qingshi Lane.

Although I have had enough insults over the years, it is always like being poked in the back by a neighbor in the country.

Now that Shi Hua saw him like this, he wished he could find a crack in the ground and sneak in.

Shi Hua finds it very strange, sometimes her memory seems to be disconnected, if she doesn't see the real face of this person, it's just a photo, she can't remember it, it's like her brain has been hurt .

Pan Yue has no money now, not even a penny, so he can't say "I invite you out to dinner", so he can only stand awkwardly.

"Uncle Pan, are you free? I have something I want to talk to you about."

Pan Yue nodded, but when he thought of something, humiliation appeared on his face again, "Sorry, I have to visit the factory later, I may not have time today."

If I let my sister-in-law know that he didn't go to the factory, there will be a lot of nagging tonight, and I probably won't be able to eat.

"It's okay, do you have time tomorrow?"

Pan Yue nodded. In fact, he didn't want to go out to eat at all. He had been nesting in this place for so many years, and he was used to it.

The bustling outside has nothing to do with him. Every time he goes out, he feels like a street rat, a clown, and he might as well just be here and grow old.

"Okay, I'll come see you tomorrow."

Shi Hua had many questions in her mind, but in the end she turned around and left without saying anything.

Pan Yue stood at the door for a while, lowering his eyes a little disappointed, when will such a day end.

Qingshi Lane is an intricate alley, if Nanshi hadn't given her the map in advance, she would definitely get lost.

Because there are densely packed residents, the rooms are exactly the same, and a few members of the family live in a place of a few square meters or a dozen square meters.

That's why outsiders say that the residents of Qingshi Lane lived in coffins early on, after all, only coffins are so cramped.

As soon as Shi Hua took a step, a huge unease suddenly swept over her whole body. When she looked up, she found a dark gun pointed at her not far away.

The man's eyes were bloodthirsty and cold, and she was almost sure that she was really going to die.

Under the tremendous tension, her body could not move at all, as if she had been tapped.

The more anxious you are, the less you can move.

"boom!"

She heard the sound of the bullet being fired, and almost subconsciously closed her eyes.

But suddenly a man's chest came up, he tightly protected her, and rolled her around in his arms.

Shihua's nose was filled with the smell of blood, thick and pungent.

She looked up and saw Simon Huo's pale face.

"Sister-in-law, I suddenly regret it."

As for what to regret, only he himself knows.
