My place is on fire

Chapter 508 Won't Your Conscience Hurt?

In Shenjiazhuang Village, which is more than 300 kilometers away from the capital.

Zhou Hong'e and her husband Shen Erlin were eating white rice with a bowl of vermicelli fried with Chinese cabbage.

"You say you prodigal bitch, what can you do with 100 yuan? Buying some meat is enough for the two of us for a month. You are good. It's all in the pool of others. Where can I put it for nothing? Woolen cloth!"

Shen Erlin used his chopsticks to knock on the stainless steel basin that held the vegetables, and muttered to express his dissatisfaction.

Zhou Hong'e poked her neck and said loudly: "What are you yelling about? Is it because of our son? People say that the wishing pool in the scenic spot is effective. Is it okay if I try it?"

Shen Erlin said: "Damn it, it's all for fooling you rural women who don't know anything!

If it is so effective, wouldn't everyone be promoted and get rich?

Are there ordinary ordinary people who suffer from poverty? "

Zhou Hong'e threw her chopsticks on the table and said, "Can my sister still lie to me? Have you seen how well Xiangdong is doing now? Have you seen how beautiful and sensible his girlfriend is?
My sister just misses us and tells us her heart and soul, most people my sister doesn't tell them these things. "

Shen Erlin laughed heartily and said: "Your sister? I think she was brainwashed by the boss of their scenic spot. Now she looks at Luo in the scenic spot more than her brother-in-law or your nephew."

"Shen Erlin, shut up! You can say anything about me, but you can't talk about Mr. Luo! Who doesn't know that Mr. Luo is always working for the welfare of the fathers and villagers wholeheartedly. If you say that about him, won't your conscience hurt!"

When Zhou Hong'e heard that Shen Erlin had scolded her eldest sister's boss, she immediately became unhappy.

Although Shen Hong'e is not an employee of Heilongshan Scenic Area, driven by her sister Zhou Hongjuan, she has already become a loyal fan of Luo Rongning.

Shen Hongjuan, also Shui Xiangdong's mother, was the first group of people who passed the work quota of the scenic spot to work in the Heilongshan scenic spot, and also the group who benefited the most.

The common people are very simple, they will support whoever treats them well, whoever leads them to make money.

Since entering the scenic spot to work, Shen Hongjuan's salary has risen from the initial 3000 yuan to the current more than 5000 yuan.

The employees at the grassroots level in the scenic area actually got the money, and they really felt the kindness Luo Rongning had shown them, so they naturally supported him.

This time I heard about Luo Yuning's illness and hospitalization. No one publicized it, and no one organized it. Everyone spontaneously wanted to go to the capital to see him.

Even if Shui Miaomiao told them that even if they went, they might not be able to see anyone, everyone still decided to go, even if they just stood far away from the hospital entrance for a while, they still wanted to send their hearts.

Although Zhou Hong'e did not follow the car to visit Luo Yuning in the capital, she also offered incense to the empress in the temple, begging her to keep him safe.

"I won't talk nonsense with you. Facts speak louder than words. If your son can bring home a girlfriend before Chinese New Year this year, you will have the final say in this family from now on!"

After Shen finished his sentence, he took a few mouthfuls of rice with chopsticks, ate up the rice in the bowl, got up and walked towards the door.

"Wait and see you! Let's see how long you can hold your tongue!"

Zhou Honge curled her lips and continued to eat Chinese cabbage in the stainless steel basin with her chopsticks.

"Obviously, mom can only help you here, you have to fight for your mom!"

While eating, Zhou Hong'e was still thinking about the scene of going to the Wishing Pool in the scenic spot to make a wish in the afternoon.

In the recent period, the ten miles and eight villages around the scenic spot have been spreading the wishing pool in the scenic spot to be very effective.

Many people's wishes at the wishing pool have come true.

[Wishing pool] has an attribute called [sincerity leads to spirit], which can increase the chance of the wisher's wish being fulfilled by about 10%.

At first glance, it seems that the chance of this increase is not high, but when you think about it carefully, the attribute of [Sincerity leads to Spirit] is enough to make a god.

You know, the possibility of many people achieving something may only be 0.1% or even 0.01%!

A 10% success rate does not seem to be high, but as more people make wishes, more people feel that they are coming true.

Once Zhou Hong'e's sister, Zhou Hongjuan, accidentally dropped 100 yuan in her pocket into the water when she was at work.

Zhou Hongjuan has always believed in gods and Buddhas, or in fate. She thought that fate was guiding her, so she kept making a wish with the 100 yuan that fell into the water.

Like all the mothers in the world, when thinking of making a wish, Zhou Hongjuan's first thought is her own son, so she made a wish to let her son get out of singles this year.

At this moment, it is the end of December in the solar calendar, and New Year's Day is coming soon, and it is already in the middle of October in the lunar calendar, and the Chinese New Year will be one month away.

When Zhou Hong'e called her son two days ago, she asked him if he had a girlfriend. The answer she got was the same as before, no.

This time, Zhou Honge went to the wishing pool in the scenic spot to find her eldest sister Zhou Hongjuan and exchanged 100 yuan coins, all of which she made a wish for her son.

After eating and clearing away the dishes, Zhou Hong'e also went out to Shen Xiaoliang's house to rest with his mother.

Shen Xueming and Shen Xiaoliang are good buddies, good brothers, and the relationship between Zhou Hongjuan and Shen Xiaoliang's mother is also very good, just like two sisters.

This time when Zhou Hong'e went to the wishing pool in the scenic spot to make a wish, Shen Xiaoliang's mother also went with her.

She also threw a 100-yuan coin into the pool and said a few words to her son.

……

At the same time, in the capital city hundreds of kilometers away from Shenjiazhuang.

Shen Xueming and the others also just finished their meal and paid the bill.

After eating, young people must go to KTV to play.

Although Tangling is located in a remote place, it is densely populated and the KTV industry is well developed.

Here, there are KTVs of various grades, and it is very convenient if you want to play.

Expensive ones have a minimum cost of thousands of dollars per night, while cheap ones cost less than 100 yuan for one night.

"Let's go to Redstone. Not only is the environment good, the equipment is good, but the most important thing is that it's also cheap. We have a colleague who worked there before, and there are many acquaintances there. It's helpful to mention his name."

Shen Xiaoliang usually likes to play and is a frequent visitor to KTV. This time he proposed to go to KTV to sing.

"You can go wherever you say. Anyway, I have never been anywhere, and I don't know what to do. I just pay for it."

With the 10 yuan bonus given by Luo Rongning as a base, Shen Xueming spoke with more confidence, and he didn't feel bad for the little money spent on eating and singing.

Being able to have a meal with Luo Huiying and sing together, he thought it was worth the money.

"Then it's Redstone. My brothers and sisters are walking, and it's not far ahead. It's only a cigarette away."

Shen Xiaoliang pointed to a neon sign in the distance, and then took out a cigarette case from his pocket to light one for himself and Shen Xueming.

"Zhenzhen, my cousin is a well-known song god among our fellow villagers. Ask him to sing you any songs you want to hear later."

Luo Huiying didn't let go of any opportunity to match her cousin and best friend. When she just had dinner, she kept saying good things to her cousin.

According to Luo Huiying, her cousin has basically no shortcomings except that she is a little fatter.

He can cook, wash clothes, and love others. If anyone marries him, he will definitely enjoy happiness in the future.

Guan Lezhen glanced at Shen Xiaoliang and said, "Really? Boys who can sing well are very attractive."

No matter how slow her reaction was, Guan Lezhen could sense that her best friend was trying to match her cousin up with her.

This is not the first time Guan Lezhen and Shen Xiaoliang have met, they have met several times.

She also had a good impression of Shen Xiaoliang, so she might consider trying to date him.

Talking about male and female friends does not necessarily have to be married, if it is suitable, they will stay together, if not, they will separate.

"Hey, it's so-so. My best result is just passing the primary election of Good Voice. It's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning."

Shen Xiaoliang said that it was not worth mentioning, but the expression on his face was obviously a little proud.

"Have you ever participated in Good Voice? Have you met Mr. Jay Lun?"

When Guan Lezhen heard that Shen Xiaoliang had also participated in The Voice, she immediately became interested. The two got closer and closer, and soon chatted together.

Luo Huiying watched the two chat fieryly from the side, and she felt a sense of accomplishment in her heart. If she could match the two together, she would be able to explain to her aunt.

A few people walked and chatted, and soon came to the Hongshi KTV that Shen Xiaoliang mentioned.

The full name of Hongshi KTV is "Red Stone KTV". Shen Xiaoliang is a frequent visitor here, and has a few acquaintances here.

After entering the door, I talked to an acquaintance for a few words, and soon opened a medium-sized private room.

As soon as he entered the private room of KTV, Shen Xiaoliang seemed to be a different person, becoming more active than outside.

Shen Xiaoliang said that he could pass the primary selection of good voice, but he was not bragging. Although his singing skills were not comparable to those of professionals, it was still possible to fool amateurs.

"Come, come, come tomorrow, let's cooperate to have my good brother first, have a good time tonight, have a good time, and if I want to be with you in the future, I have to wait until I go back to my hometown during the holidays."

After adjusting the stereo and microphone, Shen Xiaoliang asked Shen Xueming to sing a chorus.

"If there is nothing wrong, I will come back more often to see you."

Shen Xueming naturally refused to let go of the opportunity to perform in front of her goddess, so she got up and took another microphone from Shen Xiaoliang.

No matter whether you sing well or not, you must not say that you can't. No matter how nervous you are, you must behave gracefully.

I am not a professional singer, it is normal to not sing well, if I dare to sing, I have already won many people who were afraid to sing.

Soon, the prelude melody of "My Good Brother" sounded in the private room.

"My good brother, I give it to my best brother Shen Xueming. I wish you a smooth journey and a bright future. I also wish our friendship will last forever and be a good brother for life!"

After Shen Xiaoliang finished saying a word of blessing, just as the prelude ended, he sang the first line right after.

"In your moment of glory, let me sing a song for you."

"My good brother, if you feel bitter in your heart, tell me..."

"The friendship of friends is higher than the sky and wider than the earth. We must remember those days..."

A song "My Good Brother" is sung without any skills, but with emotion.

After singing a song, the two big men, Shen Xueming and Shen Xiaoliang, both had tears in their eyes.

"Ming'er, do you still remember the first time I came to the capital to join you? My wallet was stolen as soon as I got off the train, and I lost all my money."

"Both of us are such strong people. We always only report good news but not bad news to our family. Even if we beg for food, we refuse to tell our family members that we have been stolen, making them worry about us."

"At that time, you had just been here for a few days, and you hadn't paid your salary yet. We boiled noodles every night and sprinkled some salt in them. That was a meal."

"Thinking about it now, the Qingshui noodles at that time were the best rice I've ever eaten, much better than the big fish and meat now."

"Yeah, life was really hard when I was young, but it's much better now, isn't it?"

Speaking of the past, the two felt emotional again, and Luo Huiying and Guan Lezhen were also touched by their deep brotherhood.

After singing "My Good Brother" and expressing his feelings, it was time for Shen Xiaoliang's personal performance.

From Jay Cun to Jun Jie, from Rong Hao to Not Easy, Shen Xiaoliang can sing everyone's songs, and he can sing not badly.

Shen Xueming, Luo Huiying and Guan Lezhen were completely reduced to the audience, just listening to Shen Xiaoliang sing.

In the dim private room, Shen Xueming's gaze could not help but fall on Luo Huiying. Seeing her frown and smile, he felt very happy inexplicably.

Just as Shen Xueming was staring at Luo Huiying in a daze, Luo Huiying suddenly turned to look at him, and the eyes of the two focused together.

"Ahem..." Shen Xueming hurriedly looked away as if guilty, and looked at the big TV on the wall that was playing the MV.

Luo Huiying looked at her cousin who was singing Chen Yixun's song "Don't Talk" with deep affection, and then looked at her girlfriend who looked slightly obsessed.

"One of these two people likes to sing, loves to sing, and the other likes to listen to music. Give them more space to be alone, maybe it will be really interesting!"

After thinking about it, Luo Huiying quietly got up and walked towards Shen Xueming who was sitting on the opposite sofa.

After Shen Xueming's eyes caught Luo Huiying walking towards him, his heartbeat accelerated involuntarily.

"She... She shouldn't be angry anymore, and ask me to ask my teacher?"

"What to do, what to do, how to explain to her..."

"Or do you want to express your feelings to her directly and decisively?"

In an instant, no less than 10 thoughts flashed through Shen Xueming's mind.

"Shen Xueming, can you go out with me to get some air?"

Luo Huiying's voice brought Shen Xueming back to reality.

Seeing that the expression on her face didn't look like she was angry, Shen Xueming's hanging heart finally fell to the ground.

"Okay, okay, of course I can, of course I can! I... I can't wait to ask for it."

The goddess wanted to invite her, but Shen Xueming naturally refused to refuse, so she stood up and followed Luo Huiying out the door.

Shen Xiaoliang and Guan Lezhen, who were devoting themselves to singing and listening to songs, were completely immersed in the music world, and they didn't notice that two people had left the room.

Shen Xueming and Luo Huiying left the private room, and they walked straight to the gate of KTV.

After they went out, they found a secluded corner to chat in the open-air parking lot in front of the KTV.
