Du Yanlan is aging fast, she herself knows, she can not dress up, can not afford to buy good clothes, there is not a moment of relief, she smiles with a bitter look, her whole life seems to be here to suffer.
How can people live like this for the rest of their lives? Tang Yirou does not believe, not willing.
She can't let Du Yanlan live like this for the rest of her life, and she herself is afraid to live like this for the rest of her life.
Du Yanlan had not finished wiping one mirror, the rag was suddenly cut off, she looked at Tang Yirou in dismay, and finally couldn't help but ask, “What's wrong with you?”
Tang Yirou didn't say anything, she threw the rag onto the counter and pulled Du Yanlan away.
Tang Yirou let Du Yanlan take her to the office, Du Yanlan stood outside, she went in and told people that Du Yanlan quit. When she came out Du Yanlan chased after her and asked, she said, “I resigned for you.” Du Yanlan was scared by her and asked, “What is wrong with you?”
Tang Yirou said, “I won the lottery.”
Tang Yirou took Du Yanlan to the mall, Du Yanlan knew every toilet in this building like the back of her hand, but hadn't yet smelled the aroma of the hot money burning out of the new clothes here.
“How can I shop before I leave.” Tang Yirou cheerfully pulled her into the family store.
Tang Yirou picked a few pieces of clothing, let Du Yanlan to try, shopping guide lady eyes skeptical, but also do not dare to immediately change face, ? Only softly let Du Yanlan with her to go to the fitting room, Du Yanlan is not willing to go, was Tang Yirou glared at obediently followed away.
Tang Yirou sat alone on the sofa, she deliberately did not give herself the opportunity to backtrack, she took out her cell phone and sent a message to Liang Shibai.
She said, I want to buy some clothes for my mom.
After the message was sent, she was suddenly afraid, what if Liang Shibai backtracked?
She panicked and glanced at the sales clerks standing not far away, and was afraid that they would see that she was not strong enough to shop in such a*****e. If Liang Shiba reversed his decision, she would have to go back to the sewers like a rat.
Fortunately, Liang Shibai did not back out.
The cell phone rang, Tang Yirou opened it, Liang Shibai returned a “good” word.
Before she could exit from the interface, her phone gave her another alert, and Tang Yirou opened the software, showing that Liang Shibai had just transferred a sum of money to her.
Tang Yirou stared at the numbers, she breathed a sigh of relief, but her heart was gradually beating faster, she leaned back towards the sofa and looked at the streaming reflections on the store glass, she was just thinking that these things had something to do with her.
Her heart had been beating like it was going to pop out of her mouth, and a fire had been set up at the bottom of her throat, burning her mouth hot and sweet.
Du Yanlan came out, terrified and unable to hide her happiness, she was guided to stand in front of the mirror but didn't dare to look at it, as long as anyone chided at her, she would immediately run away.
Tang Yirou stood up, walked over, stood behind Du Yanlan, the mirror reflected two similar face, one has been dull and sagging, one is still white and taut.
Tang Yirou saw the two faces together experienced, forgotten, coming, she smiled, finally said: “very good-looking.”
The next day Du Yanlan wore this new outfit and Liang Shibai met, she did not know, or did not believe, her daughter and such a man who looked out of place with them have any relationship.
She was silent the whole time, to Liang Shibai's attentiveness is more panic, Liang Shibai does not mind, can see that she is uncomfortable and no longer talk to her, Tang Yirou is blind to it.
Liang Shibai sent them home after dinner, Tang Yirou told Du Yanlan to go up first, she still have something to say to Liang Shibai.
After Du Yanlan left, they were the only ones left in the car. Liang Shibai behaved freely, but Tang Yirou was still in a dream.
She asked, “What you said the other day was true, right?”
Liang Shibai said, “It's true.” He gazed at her, his eyes becoming more and more serious.
Tang Yirou asked, “What do you see in me?”
Liang Shibai said, “I don't know, I am also strange, I sometimes feel familiar with you.” There was moving affection in his words.
Now he was oiled and comforted just by looking at her sitting beside him.
Tang Yirou pretended to be relaxed and said, “Looking for a substitute? Do I look like one of your ex-girlfriends?”
Liang Shibai laughed out, shaking his head, “I haven't lost my memory, don't worry.”
Tang Yirou looked back at him.
Liang Shibai naturally held her hand.
The two pairs of warm and cool hands mistakenly thought the other was hotter.
Du Yannan sat on a stool and waited, after Tang Yirou came home, she took out the gift from Liang Shibai, a pearl necklace, she urged Du Yannan to put it on.
Du Yanlan went to put the necklace on the table and asked her, “Is this Mr. Liang married?”
Tang Yirou said half-heartedly, “What? Suspect I'm a mistress?”
Du Yanlan was so loud for the first time, yelling, “Tell the truth!”
Tang Yirou glanced at her and replied, “Not married.”
Du Yanlan: “Then why did he---”
Tang Yirou said, “He likes me.”
Du Yanlan looked at her with an intolerant expression.
Tang Yirou said, “Just say what you have.”
Du Yanlan hesitantly opened her mouth, “Mom is a person who has been there, let me advise you, this Liang Shibai definitely has other plans, think about it, people like him---” she wanted to stop, “You can't be too greedy as a human being, don't think about things that shouldn't be yours, and keep your feet on the ground.”
Tang Yirou smiled slightly and said, “Down-to-earth? Down-to-earth to find a man as poor as me, as no money and no father, and then have a child with him, and then a family of three crowded in this single room, oh yes, also have to add a you, a family living less than a cat in a rich man's house.”
Du Yanlan could not speak.
Tang Yirou said, “You can rest assured, I'm with Liang Shibai together did not harm people, to harm is also to harm my own, I've lived enough down-to-earth days.”
Tang Yirou finished, put the necklace on the table into the box, she stood up, looked at the room, said to Du Yanlan, “You're fine tomorrow at home to clean up things.”
Du Yanlan tilted her head and looked at her, asking, “Pack up what for?”
Tang Yirou said, “Move.”
Liu Zheng just came out from the bureau, was stopped, he was not afraid to come to seek revenge, because this person does not look like, dressed properly, shirt and tie, wearing a pair of glasses white, stood in front of him, quite politely asked if he was Officer Liu.
Liu Zheng thought he looked a bit familiar, nodded and said, “I am, which one are you?”
The visitor said, “My name is Gu Qingfeng, we met at the funeral last time.”
Liu Zheng remembered, this was the man who was talking to Liang Shibai when he entered the door last time, he sized up this man called Gu Qingfeng and guessed his intentions.
Gu Qingfeng did not let him guess for long, a single sentence clarified the reason for his visit, he said, “I have a clue.”
Liu Zheng took Gu Qingfeng to find a*****e and sat down, and only then did he figure out where Gu Qingfeng's words came from.
Gu Qingfeng was Liang Shibai's wife's cousin, and the last time Liu Zheng went over, he heard Liang Shibai call out to Officer Liu, so he memorized it and then found his way here.
Liu Zheng joked, “Mr. Lu has a fine and bold heart, dare I ask what kind of work he does?”
Gu Qingfeng smiled bitterly and said, “I work as a teacher, I have no choice”, he held up his glasses, “I don't believe she has depression, she won't get it.”
Liu Zheng said, “But the doctor said she has it, it's a pity you're not a doctor.”
Gu Qingfeng insisted, “I know her, she won't get depression, much less commit suicide.”
Liu Zheng said, “But there's no other evidence to prove that she didn't commit suicide now that the case is closed.”
Gu Qingfeng, however, stubbornly kept repeating the sentence, “It's impossible for her to commit suicide.”
