: Self-inflicted

In summer, after dinner, under the big locust tree in the educated youth dotyard, Zhao Ye and Han Jianguo sat face to face, Huang Xinhua sat aside, and the three of them all looked on a chess game.

Because life in the countryside is too boring, everyone always wants to find some ways to kill time. If this continues, gambling becomes their only entertainment option.

At first, everyone's gambling method was very simple, mostly using arm wrestling, throwing stones, etc., but gradually, Huang Xinhua and the others found something wrong, just because Zhao Ye had too great advantages in this kind of physical competition.

Always win more than lose less.

When gambling, there should be both a loss and a loss. If you only lose but not a loss, then there is still any fun. Therefore, the three of them unanimously protested, demanding that the gameplay must be changed, otherwise they would not participate.

Zhao Ye was completely unfair about this. After discussion, everyone decided to use chess to decide the outcome.

As for what they bet on, they mostly use food rations, cigarettes, or work for others. For example, today, the bet between Zhao Ye and Han Jianguo is that the loser must carry a jar of water for the winner.

As time passed, Han Jianguo slowly looked depressed on his face. On the contrary, Zhao Ye looked confident of victory.

"General, Lao Han, I'm really embarrassed. I won two games in three games. This is my second game. You, let's go and fetch water honestly."

Han Jianguo still lowered his head and stared at the chessboard, obviously not wanting to give in easily: "Don't be anxious first, let me think about it again, maybe I can think of a move that can turn defeat into victory!"

Zhao Ye said proudly: "I'm just thinking about it! It's useless to see the flowers on the chessboard. Let me tell you clearly. This move is called Du Gongshi Kill. It's a complete death game. Just accept your fate!"

With this idea in mind, Zhao Ye knocked on the door of the Zhou family at around 9 o'clock in the evening.

The reason why she used the word "Wi" was because at this time, she had severe sprained her left ankle, and she would feel a piercing pain every time she took, and she could not walk normally.

Cai Xiao was reluctant at first, but after this guy heard about the whole story, he immediately changed his mind.

But even so, Zhou Rong is still infatuated.

Zhou Rong was a person who regarded love as her belief, otherwise she would not have caused a quarrel with her family for Feng Huacheng. Although Zhao Ye made a fuss afterwards, she did not go there, but she also did it.

After paying a heavy price, he was sent to the countryside to work in the countryside.

As he said that, Zhou Bingkun showed an annoyed expression and said to Zhao Ye carefully: "Last month, Cai Xiaoguang suddenly came to me and said that he had not seen my sister for a long time. He wanted me to send a letter for him, but I didn't ask too much.

At once……"

I don’t know how Zhou Bingkun answered. After the door opened, Li Suhua also appeared at the door and asked nervously at the first time: "Oye, you came back so late. Is there something wrong with our Zhou Rong?

Now?"

After sending the two of them away, Zhao Ye stared at Gao Xiaoqin and asked, "There are only two of us now, so you don't have to hide it. Tell me, what strange things did Zhou Rong do?"

Although I know that Gao Xiaoqin won’t joke about this kind of thing, Zhao Ye still wants to confirm it first: “Old Huang, has Zhou Rong just returned?”

But to his surprise, he found all the way along the way, and saw that the words "light" were already in sight, but there was no trace of Zhou Rong at all.

"It's me, you Brother Ono, have something to ask you for trouble!"

Zhou Rong realized something was wrong, so she went to several letters to ask Feng Huacheng for the reason.

Speaking of which, this is all done by Zhou Rong himself.

After listening to it, Zhao Ye could think of it with his butt that there was 80% news about Feng Huacheng in the letter, and maybe it was a handwritten letter from Feng Huacheng.

"Okay, what's the point of saying this now? The most important thing is to find Zhou Rong first."

The reason is very simple. If Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng break up from now on, wouldn’t he have the opportunity for Mr. Cai to come?

A Sunday half a month ago, Zhou Bingkun came to give Zhou Rong a change of summer clothes under the arrangement of his mother. After the boy left, Zhou Rong had an extra letter in his hand.

While speaking, Zhao Ye had already pushed the bicycle into the yard. Before leaving, he reminded Gao Xiaoqin that if he found Zhou Rong's whereabouts near Wujiatun, don't have any concerns and hold the person first.

In order to help her lover achieve her wish, Cai Xiaoguang also actively provided advice and gave Zhou Rong a trick, which was to let her come back together while Zhao Ye returned to Jichun.

"Oh!" Gao Xiaoqin stomped her feet anxiously, forcing herself to calm down, and explained again:

The problem lies in that letter, and I don’t know what it was written on it. Anyway, after reading it, Zhou Rong kept thinking about it and was always listless.

"Zhou Rong was going for a walk with me, but she suddenly said she wanted to come back to get something in the middle of the journey. I waited for it but couldn't see her coming back. I suddenly thought that she was strange these days, so I realized that something was strange."

Such news that was like a bolt from the blue almost knocked down Zhou Rong on the spot.

Huang Xinhua affirmed: "No, when you were playing chess with Lao Han, I was in the yard for a cool breeze. I only saw Lao Wang going to the river to wash clothes, and I never saw Zhou Rong come back."

This made Zhao Ye very surprised. Could it be that his previous guess was wrong?

But no matter what, everyone has already arrived here, and at least they have to ask Zhou Bingkun for the origin of Zhou Rong's letter.

Zhao Ye was about to agree, but suddenly he saw Gao Xiaoqin running in from outside, shouting: "Zhao Ye, something big happened!"

"Okay, you go back first."

"Brother Ono, just say, what do you want me to do..."

Huang Xinhua smirked and said, "It is better to have fun alone than to have fun. I have been cheated by Lao Zhao a lot over the past year. Since that is the case, we must have good fortune and difficulty."

However, what is different from Zhao Ye’s idea is that Zhou Rong’s purpose is not to find Feng Huacheng to renew his relationship, but to settle the score with Feng Huacheng.

"Since his father was transferred to the GW meeting, they have moved. I don't know much about his current address, I only know that he is currently working in a tractor factory."

It turned out that during the two years when Zhou Rong went to the countryside, she had been secretly contacting Feng Huacheng through letters through Cai Xiaoguang as an intermediary.

Zhao Ye said evasively: "Aunt, where are you thinking? Zhou Rong is good. Is there something else to ask Bingkun?"

"It was Brother Xiaoguang for my sister." Zhou Bingkun didn't think much about it and replied naturally.

Gao Xiaoqin touched her forehead twice and panted: "Zhou, Zhou Rong, she, she is gone!"

And no matter what the situation is, it will definitely be inseparable from Cai Xiaoguang, a dog-licking dog.

Perhaps he was forced to do so, Feng Huacheng confessed in the last letter that he had already gotten married five months ago and that his wife was still his former admirer.

"No, I'm faster by myself."

Before Zhou Bingkun finished speaking, Zhao Ye hurriedly gave a wink and took him to the secluded place in the yard. He asked straight to the point: "Bingkun, I'll ask you, the last time you went to see your sister,

Where did her letter come from?”

Han Jianguo thought for a while, and reluctantly admitted defeat and said, "I am so lucky. I won two of your steamed buns the day before yesterday, why did I lose so badly today?"

It was similar to Zhao Ye's guess. She initially planned to return to Jichun overnight, and then went to Guizhou to find Feng Huacheng with the certificate obtained by Cai Xiaoguang.

Under Gao Xiaoqin's narration, the context of things gradually became clear.

Yes, it's just to settle accounts.

This made Zhou Rong very anxious, but due to the grudge between the two, she was embarrassed to take the initiative to surrender to Zhao Ye. After a while, the matter was dragged down.

"I just knew it was this grandson, he was so fucking sick!"

Fortunately, it is now the hot summer, and everyone sleeps late at night, so I soon heard Zhou Bingkun respond: "It's so late, who is it?"

Thinking that the whole thing was caused by him, Zhou Bingkun felt regretful and immediately said ruthlessly: "Yes, unless she stepped on my body, she would not want to leave Jichun one step."

Seeing Zhao Ye stepping onto the bicycle, Zhou Bingkun hurriedly advised: "Brother Ono, it's so late, you'd better leave tomorrow."

Gao Xiaoqin smiled bitterly and said, "This is the thing. Didn't Zhou Rong's younger brother come once more than ten days ago..."

As he said that, he blamed Huang Xinhua again and said, "Old Huang, you are not authentic. You know everything, so why don't you remind your buddy?"

After complaining about Zhao Ye casually, Li Suhua turned around and went back to sleep, choosing to leave room for the two of them to speak.

So, Zhou Rong took advantage of the opportunity to return to Jichun to find Cai Xiaoguang privately and wanted to entrust her to apply for her identity certificate.

At first, Feng Huacheng swears in the letter that he did not mind Zhou Rong going to the countryside and would wait forever.

Since it was the end of July, which was the hottest time of the year, Zhao Ye had not mentioned going back at all recently, but instead had the attitude of staying in the countryside to escape the summer heat.

As soon as Zhao Ye finished speaking, he heard the conversation between Zhou Bingkun and his mother coming from the room again, as if Li Suhua was asking who was coming.

Han Jianguo took the opportunity to ask: "It's okay if we promise, but you have to give some benefits."

Huang Xinhua echoed: "That's right, at least two packs of cigarettes, otherwise there will be no talks!"

"Do you want me to go with you?"

When Zhao Ye heard that it was Cai Xiaoguang who was cheating, he cursed on the spot. Then he told Zhou Bingkun about Zhou Rong's disappearance and asked, "Do you know where Cai Xiaoguang's family is?"

But in the past six months, Feng Huacheng's letter frequency has suddenly decreased. In the past, a letter that was unstoppable every month has become one every two months, and the content has disappeared from the sweet words of the past.

Han Jianguo slapped his forehead and suddenly realized, "I'm a mistake. This is the case after a long time. I was wondering before, why do I win more and lose less every time I bet on the gambling house, and I stop eating when I pick up water and chop firewood.

Lao Zhao, you are too treacherous!"

The hard work of the past two years has not reduced her enthusiasm at all, but has only made her more determined in her beliefs, and she is full of hope that one day she will be able to live with Feng Hua.

After saying that, he saw that Li Suhua was still nervous and had to add, "That's the case. In two days, a friend from another place would pass by Jichun to see me. I was afraid that I would not be able to come back in the countryside, so I thought.

Please Bingkun help me entertain guests.”

After the two of them broke each other's table, Zhao Ye reminded them: "Old Wang doesn't know about this yet. You guys will keep your mouth tighter."

Zhao Ye smiled but didn't say anything, Huang Xinhua gloated and said, "I said Lao Han, have you not figured it out? Lao Zhao is playing with you to lure the enemy deeper, why don't he lose a few more steamed buns,

How could you agree to bet with him on water!”

Zhao Ye raised his hand to signal Zhou Bingkun to stop, and then pondered: "Zhou Rong wants to go to Guizhou, so he can only pass the train road. In this way, you can take a leave tomorrow and go to the train station early in the morning to guard her. As long as you find her showing up,

You must stop someone, can you do it?"

At that time, not only can we get rid of Zhao Ye's sight, but we can also take the opportunity to put him on and drag him into the water to avenge his past revenge.
