Chapter 662 The world is impermanent
Tan Xiaoyu was only thirty years old this year, not that old, so it was really a pity that he just passed away like this.
It is rare for these classmates to come here specially to wait for his body to be transported back to express their condolences.
Chen Feng didn't expect this to happen, and he felt a little sad in his heart.
He also got cancer, but his luck was much better than that of Tan Xiaoyu, and he could even be said to have changed his fate against the odds.
Otherwise, he might die earlier than Tan Xiaoyu.
This is that everyone has his own destiny. Chen Feng's situation is a miracle. In this world, miracles are rare.
Most people cannot recover from this disease, and they are lucky to be able to extend their life span by a few years.
Even after Chen Feng's condition miraculously began to improve, there is no guarantee that he will be fully recovered.
Therefore, Chen Feng now feels a little bit sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox, and of course he will not refuse to go to express his condolences to Tan Xiaoyu.
Chen Feng went to open the door first and invited these students to come in and sit down. He asked them to sit down without being too particular. He then went to the kitchen behind to get a few cups, brought a hot water bottle over, and poured a glass of water for each of them. .
Then, he also found a place to sit down and listened to these old classmates talking about some situations during Tan Xiaoyu's lifetime.
Before the disease was discovered, Tan Xiaoyu’s life was relatively good. After graduating from junior high school, he first followed his parents to open a fruit shop in other places, and the business was so-so. After a few years, the family returned to his hometown. First with his dad After working in a local factory, he later started a partnership with others to make small commodities, that is, some daily necessities, and imitated some gadgets that are useful in daily life, especially some plastic products, such as plastic drain baskets and soap dishes. , dental cups and the like.
Business is still good. If you catch it right and copy one or two popular products, you can make a lot of money.
So, he later bought a house in the county with a down payment, and also found a more beautiful girlfriend, and they got engaged naturally after two or three years.
Originally, they planned to get married, but then they discovered the disease. At first, his fiancée was affectionate and stayed with him for more than half a year, but then she sold her house and car because of the medical treatment, so naturally she eventually broke up with him.
After that, his condition worsened and he spent a lot of money. In the end, his family could no longer support it and had to raise money from various sources.
With the help of kind-hearted people in society, local folks, relatives, friends and classmates, a lot of money was also raised.
Unfortunately, in the end, he was unable to extend his lifespan any longer and eventually passed away.
With this disease, except for a few miraculous cases, the difference is basically long or short. It is quite good to live for two or three more years.
Everyone sighed and sighed, and then talked about some interesting things about school back then. Time flew by very quickly.
Almost half an hour later, Chen Feng’s parents also came back, and they were about to prepare dinner for his classmates, but they were rejected by his classmates.
Just then Xie Xiaohua also received a call, saying that he was coming soon. So, everyone said goodbye, including Chen Feng, and everyone drove or took a car to Tan Xiaoyu's home.
Yu Xiaohui did not drive there by herself, but chose to take Chen Feng’s car.
In response, several junior high school classmates smiled at them somewhat ambiguously and didn't say much.
Everyone is an adult, Chen Feng is divorced, and Yu Xiaohui's husband is dead. It's normal to be close. Even if the two of them really have something, others can't say anything.
Chen Feng did not deliberately avoid suspicion. After she said she wanted to ride in his car, Chen Feng agreed without any hesitation.
Anyway, when going back to the city or county from Tan Xiaoyu's house, you have to pass through Qingpu Town. There is really no need to drive there one person and one car at a time.
"How is the matter at your jewelry store going?"
After getting into the car, Yu Xiaohui asked with concern.
"I just happened to have found a store today. It's in Baijia Plaza in Yuelou Town. It's about ten meters from the north gate. The location is pretty good."
"That's good. I'll wait for the review from Zhao Shengsheng's headquarters. After that, you can officially recruit people. I’ll recommend you several store managers to choose from. You can choose them yourself.”
“I told you last time.”
"Well, I will choose the good one for you. However, jewelry stores are different from ordinary In the store, you still need to supervise and supervise the store manager by necessary means to prevent her from getting involved in corruption or theft. As long as you are aware of this, it is best to choose someone you trust. I picked them for you, and I can't guarantee that they won't There is a problem.”
Chen Feng explained: “I will hire a professional accountant for financial supervision, and I will also hire an accounting firm for regular audits. In addition, my parents are also helping in the store, and my mother will take care of it. Deputy store manager, my dad’s security captain.”
Yu Xiaohui couldn't help laughing when she heard this: "You still let your parents work for you?"
Chen Feng also laughed and said: "One of the reasons why I opened a jewelry store is for them. You also know that our parents are like this." It’s hard for seniors to have time off, and that’s what happened to my parents. Now they still go to work every day, and my dad also works as a driver to deliver goods and move things around. How can it be easier for him to be a security guard?”
Yu Xiaohui nodded and said: "That's true. You are really a filial son."
"You are not a filial son. It's just that you are capable and rich, and you can't let your parents do it." Are you suffering?”
“You spend so much money to open a jewelry store, aren’t you a filial son?”
"I'm not doing it all for my parents."
"Don't be humble." After Yu Xiaohui said this, she changed the subject and said, "I have nothing to do these two days, why don't I accompany you? Let’s prepare the jewelry store. I’m more familiar with this aspect than you.”
Chen Feng was already a little worried about the jewelry store, so he couldn’t help but be overjoyed when he heard it, and quickly agreed: “Okay, I’m really good at this. I'm not familiar with it, I can help you "That's great."
Yu Xiaohui was very happy when she saw that Chen Feng didn't meet her. She smiled and said, "The preparation work for a jewelry store is very complicated. You have never been exposed to it before, so you definitely don't understand anything." "I have experience in this area, which will definitely save you a lot of trouble."
It would be best to have Yu Xiaohui help. Chen Feng immediately smiled and thanked: "Thank you, I'll treat you to a big dinner tomorrow."
"Why are you so polite to me?" Yu Xiaohui looked at him charmingly.
The two smiled and said no more polite words.
After all, the two of them already have a practical relationship, so there is really no need to be too polite.
While they were talking, a group of them and several cars had already arrived in front of Tan Xiaoyu’s house. Their house was only three or four kilometers away from the center of Qingpu Town. It was a matter of stepping on the accelerator.
At this time, many people had gathered in front of the door of Tan Xiaoyu's house, and they all obviously knew about Tan Xiaoyu's death.
The classmates got off the bus and after waiting for a few minutes, the hearse carrying Tan Xiaoyu's body came over.
There were many people watching, including some of Tan Xiaoyu’s relatives, friends, classmates, and people from the same village.
The hearse was parked on the side of the road, and the atmosphere at the scene was a bit depressing. No one made any noise at this time, but just watched silently.
The ice coffin was carried out of the car by several relatives and friends and carried towards their house.
The people who were invited to do the white things had already begun to set up the funeral shed at this time. After the ice coffin was parked in the house and plugged in again, everyone went in one after another to take a final look at Tan Xiaoyu's remains.
At this time, the atmosphere became lively.
Several of Chen Feng’s junior high school classmates also went in to take a look, and then Xie Xiaohua, as the representative, comforted Tan Xiaoyu’s parents a few words, and then everyone followed the money.
After a few people went out, they discussed it for a while and everyone paid five hundred.
After all, funerals are not happy events, and Tan Xiaoyu died at such a young age, so of course everything should be kept simple.
In the past, they had a coffin policy that required the body to be kept at home for at least three or even seven days, but now it is no longer so particular. Some people only keep it for one day, and then take it to a funeral home for cremation the next day.
Especially since Tan Xiaoyu passed away at such a young age, there is no need to stay at home.
What his family means is that he will be sent to the funeral home for cremation early tomorrow morning, and some of his relatives and friends will go with him.
Among the junior high school classmates, Xie Xiaohua has the best relationship with him, and he will follow him tomorrow morning. Several other classmates, including Chen Feng, have no such intention. They can make a special trip to see Tan Xiaoyu's remains today. By offering condolences, it can be considered that the friendship between classmates has been exhausted.
Xie Xiaohua will be our representative.
As for the funeral, it may not be until seven days later. If Chen Feng was still in his hometown at that time, he would come to see him off for the last time. If he was not there, of course he would not make a special trip back from Xiuzhou.
After all, he and Tan Xiaoyu were just ordinary classmates, without a deep friendship.
After staying at Tan Xiaoyu's house for almost half an hour, several classmates said goodbye and left together. Everyone got in their cars and went their separate ways. We will meet again when we have the opportunity. It is obviously not appropriate to talk about this at Tan Xiaoyu's house now.
On the way back to town, Yu Xiaohui's eyes were red and she was wiping her tears with a tissue. She was the only girl among a group of junior high school classmates who just shed tears because she was the most emotional. Meet the occasion.
Seeing that everyone was getting in the car and going back, Chen Feng saw that Yu Xiaohui was still wiping away her tears. He couldn't help but ask: "Do you have a good relationship with Xiaoyu? In my impression, you and him were similar when we were in junior high school. The relationship is just average.”
Yu Xiaohui wiped the corners of her eyes with a tissue and said: "The main reason is that he was too young. Just like us, he left at the age of thirty. Don't you think it's a pity? In junior high school, he and Xie Xiaohua often made fun and fights in the class , they are the most lively couple in our class. Think about how he was so alive and kicking back then, but now he is already a cold corpse. Don’t you feel that at all? Are you sad?"
Chen Feng said truthfully: "It's definitely a bit sad, but it's not like crying. I just have an ordinary relationship with him, so I can't cry for him."< br>
Yu Xiaohui shook his head and sighed, "You men are just hard-hearted and cruel."
Chen Feng didn't refute, and just kept driving.
When they were about to arrive in the town, Yu Xiaohui said: "How about we go to the county seat first, and you treat me to dinner. Starting tomorrow, I will help you prepare for the jewelry store."
Chen Feng turned his head slightly and glanced at her quickly. She was sad just now, but now she was seducing him again.
However, Chen Feng did not refuse and nodded and said: "Okay, I will send you there to pick up the car first."
Yu Xiaohui quickly said: "I don't want to drive, so I will take your car. My car Just park in front of your house, there shouldn't be any "What's the matter? But you don't have a car, how can you come here tomorrow?" Come with me?”
She made a special trip from the city to Qingpu Town today to express her condolences to Tan Xiaoyu, but also to meet her lover, Chen Feng.
Chen Feng said with a smile: "Okay, you have the final say."
Although he rejected Cheng Yuhan's seduction this afternoon, he was still somewhat aroused. It just happened that now Yu Xiaohui came to his door, and he had no reason to refuse.
So, Chen Feng stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the county seat.
At around nine o'clock in the evening, Chen Feng and Yu Xiaohui each came out of the hotel bathroom wrapped in bath towels, and then lay together on the two-meter-wide bed, relaxing physically and mentally, watching TV, and having an affair. Chatting together.
At this moment, Qin Zhen called, and Chen Feng answered it immediately.
"Chen Guoxiang was found, but he is already dead. It was one of Ma Laoliu's confidants who did it."
As soon as the call was connected, Qin Zhen explained the matter directly and clearly Something that shocked him.
"Why did Ma Laoliu's men want to kill him?"
Chen Feng was confused.
Qin Zhen said in a normal tone: "Before Ma Laoliu was killed, Gao Xinfu had contact with Chen Guoxiang. Both of them had a grudge against Ma Laoliu. Chen Guoxiang should have known in advance that Gao Xinfu went to kill Ma Laoliu. , and even the two of them conspired together. Ma Laoliu's subordinate found this out, regarded Chen Guoxiang as an accomplice, and killed him to avenge Ma Laoliu.
Chen Guoxiang was also unlucky. If the police had found him half an hour earlier, he might not have died. But unfortunately, when they found him, he was already dead and almost was carried to the fishing boat and sank in the sea. "
"Oh, it's a pity. Although he is very annoying, he will not die. It's too unexpected."
Chen Feng really didn't want him to die.
Qin Zhen said matter-of-factly: "Although a person like him died unjustly, he asked for it. Don't forget that he encouraged Gao Xinfu to kidnap you, and even asked him to kill you."
"Well, he's already dead. There's no point in saying anything else."
"Well, let's just say that first."
Qin Zhen simply hung up after saying that. Telephone.
"What did you just say? What Ma Laoliu, isn't he dead? What does it have to do with you?"
Yu Xiaohui on the side asked curiously.
Chen Feng briefly told her. After hearing this, she was shocked and did not recover for a while.
Chen Feng said with a smile: "Reality is often more bizarre and absurd than fiction. Chen Guoxiang wanted to plot against me, but he ended up plotting against me. Who can blame him? As the saying goes, the agencies are too smart for calculations. , but it cost Qing Qing’s life.”
Yu Xiaohui was about to speak when her cell phone rang. When she saw the phone number, it was her mother-in-law, and she quickly said silently to Chen Feng. gesture.
After she was connected, she chatted with her mother-in-law for a long time. Her mother-in-law wanted her to go back early and take care of the children together. Yu Xiaohui said that her classmate passed away today and he would stay here for two more days.
Her mother-in-law had no choice but to end the call.
