In a dream

This is the second time it has snowed since the beginning of winter. Compared with the first night snow that was quiet and silent, today's snow fell like a rainbow, and it has been falling in large swaths since 70:[-] in the morning.The news broadcast said that some sections of roads on the outskirts of the city had to be temporarily closed because of the snow.In the small guard room at the gate of the cemetery, an old man in his [-]s and [-]s with gray hair but still in good spirits stretched out his hands to keep warm by the burning fire. The buttocks of the iron teapot on the stove were roasted It was red, and the spout of the pot blew hot air and made a creaking sound. The old man reached out and took the stove cover to cover the vent.

The snow outside the window is getting bigger and bigger, and there is no intention of stopping. A branch on the door of the uncle has been pressed by the snow pile for a long time and can no longer bear the weight. Next to the snow-covered silver-gray Mercedes-Benz trot, the old man hurriedly got up and went out to look. There was a long line drawn by a tree branch above the rear wheel of the car.Looking at the young woman in plain black still standing in front of a tombstone not far away, the old man sighed. This woman has been standing here for four or five hours. I can't go back.

A few meters away from the woman, the old man stood still and asked gently, "Miss, are you okay?"

Mu Elegy shook his head, raised his stiff neck, looked at the kind-hearted old man, and opened his mouth to let out a big breath of white air, "I'm fine, thank you, old man."

The old man nodded. The person buried under the tomb should be her mother. The photo on the tombstone is no longer clear, but the similar eyebrows and expressions of the two can still be seen in the blur. It must be some kind of problem. This girl recently He couldn't count the number of times he came here to see her mother. In this cold winter, the old man would remember people who occasionally came to this cemetery, "Miss, let's go back quickly, the snow is tight, just now The radio also said that many places are closed to traffic, if you don’t go, it will be even more difficult to walk when it gets dark.”

Mu Elegy nodded, took off the thick gloves on his hands, tremblingly folded up the old newspapers in his hand and put away the last photo of Mu Yunzhi and himself in this world, put it in his bag, and politely looked at it. The old man guarding the grave said, "Okay, I see."

Following the old man step by step to the guard room, Mu Elegy dragged away the heavy branches with some difficulty with the old man's help, glanced at the scratches on the rear wheel, opened the car door without saying anything, started the car and started driving. The air conditioner, Mu Elegy trembled violently. After staying in a cold place for a long time, when she suddenly entered a warm room, her body had a stress response.The windshield wiper wiped away a layer of snow on the front window, Mu Elegy glanced at Mu Yunzhi's tombstone in the rearview mirror, took the bag from the co-pilot and took out a wad of cash that he had prepared earlier.

"Old man," Mu Elegy bent down and knocked on the small glass window of the guard room, poked her head in and called out to the old man who was pouring water and making tea. The glass window was opened by the old man, and she hurriedly said, "Old man, I won't come in the future Alright, this money," handing over a stack of banknotes in his hand, "You accept it, and I will trouble you to buy some flowers for my mother when you have time. She likes yellow horned orchids, very much."

The white-haired old man glanced at the money on Mu Wan Singer and then at her, "I don't want the money. As for the yellow horned orchid, it's easy to handle. There is a yellow horned orchid tree behind the cemetery. When the flowers bloom There are many, I'll just pick it up and put it on for her." After finishing speaking, he paused and looked at Mu Elegy's thin face again, "It's you, little girl, you have read too much resentment in this world, you should let go Let go, you know, this person has his own fate." After speaking, he closed the window and locked it without waiting for Mu Elegy to reply.

Mu Elegy looked at the closed glass window, frowned, went to the car, opened the door and sat in. She still didn't quite understand what the old man meant, or why the good old man would tell her these things.The car was started by her and drove about 50 meters. She stopped suddenly, opened the door and trotted all the way to the window of the guard room, watching the old man leisurely smoking the dry cigarette in his hand and squinting his eyes to listen to the radio. nose, and put the money in his hand on the window sill.

The silver-gray Mercedes-Benz is speeding on the narrow two-lane road in the countryside. The low grass on the side of the road, which has been tortured by the cold winter, and the small trees in the green belt that have been planted for only two years are bent over by the university. The whole journey was white, Mu Elegy frowned slightly, stepped on the gas pedal harder, the spare painkiller in the car was finished, and now she felt that the pain in her stomach, which was only faint just now, became more obvious .

The sky is getting darker, she is a little annoyed that she has forgotten the time today, the small screen in the car is flashing and the time is 17:30, it is estimated that the sky will be completely dark in less than half an hour, the snow will not stop at all In other words, she had to continue to speed up, but fortunately, there were fewer people and cars in the middle of winter in the countryside.

The ringing of the mobile phone broke the silence in the car. Mu Elegy reached out and wiped the fine beads of sweat on her forehead, and took the mobile phone on the front desk. It was Liang Chen's call. She slid the call button with some doubts, "Hello?" At this time Isn't it time to get off work, why would you still call yourself.

"Boss Mu..."

"Huh? What's the matter?" Liang Chen's voice was a bit deep, not like the usual him, and a bad feeling suddenly flashed in Mu Elegy's heart, "Is something wrong?"

Liang Chen snorted, "Yeah." After a pause, he continued, "The construction site we developed had an accident today. A worker was hit on the head by a flying steel bar and died on the spot. I'm here now, The workers here have gathered together and pulled up banners, asking the company to give an explanation."

Mu Elegy held the phone with a free finger and pressed Chuchu's temple, "Pull the banner?"

"Yes, saying that it is snowing so much and let the work start, it is simply the culprit who disregarded human life."

After listening to Liang Chen's low-pitched answer, Mu Elegy felt dizzy, "Has work started today? Who started work with such a heavy snow?!" She was about to roar out, her stomach convulsed, and she let out a painful cry. Covering his stomach, he didn't hear what Liang Chen said when he put the phone on his upper abdomen, "Okay, I got it, you deal with it first, appease the workers, temporarily suspend work for two days, this matter must be suppressed, Give me more pension." After Liang Chen agreed, Mu Elegy hung up the phone feebly and put it aside, pulling a banner?The accident just happened today, and before the company had time to deal with it, there was a commotion over there. She had to think about it in a bad way, maybe, is this scene finally about to start?The strength under his feet became heavier, and the Mercedes Benz disappeared at the end of the road in an instant with a whining roar.

When Mu Elegy arrived at the construction site, the scene had just fallen into a situation that Liang Chen couldn't control. The security guards in uniform had set up a line of defense and were ready to protect the company's leaders from attack at any time. Liang Chen sat on a table On the wooden bench with one leg missing, he lowered his head and said something to the secretary. The scene looked a little funny, although he was a little annoyed, but looking at him from a distance, he almost fell off his back when he shifted his position, Mu Elegy still I couldn't help laughing.

"Hello? Wei Ran, do you know about the construction site?" He picked up the phone and dialed Wei Ran's number. The phone rang and was picked up quickly.

"Yeah, I know." Wei Ran's voice was a little hoarse, showing a bit of ruthlessness, "Xiao Mu, it's not convenient for me to show up now, so you should pay more attention."

"Okay, I know." Mu Yange looked up at the direction where the crowd gathered, and looked at the eye-catching banner with black characters on a white background. "Do you think this is an accident?"

"Accident?" Wei Ran on the other end of the phone called out strangely, "If this could be an accident, then there is no such thing as premeditation in this world. I'm investigating this matter, so you don't have to worry about me."

"it is good..."

On the dark construction site, there was a dim street lamp hanging on a temporary telephone pole some distance away. Who among the dark crowd on the construction site saw Mu Elegy standing tens of meters away from the side of the crowd and screamed. With a cry of "Their boss is here!" the crowd quickly surrounded Xiang Mu Elegy.

Feeling the dangerous aura coming towards her, Mu Elegy hung up the phone and took two steps forward.Liang Chen brought the security guards and rushed up to surround Mu Elegy, glaring at a group of dark heads, "We will handle this matter properly, why can't you hear me?"

"Don't think it's great to have a few stinky money, don't take human life seriously."

"That's right, it's snowing so much today, and we're the only ones who are still working desperately."

"Don't try to escape responsibility if something goes wrong, brothers?"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"When did you see that you wanted to evade responsibility?" Mu Elegy walked forward and stood beside Liang Chen. Is it too early to draw conclusions?" Mu Elegy glanced around at the faces that could be seen clearly before, and then said, "The people in our company have never left since we have been engaged in the development. If you really have no sincerity to deal with this matter, do you think I will personally drive here in the heavy snow?"

The crowd began to chatter in twos and threes, and Mu Elegy let them talk for a while without speaking. There must be a few people in this group who are fanning, but it doesn't mean that most of the remaining people have no brains.They just need time to sort out the situation.

"Anyway, it's wrong for you to start work in heavy snow. This is belittling the lives of our migrant workers!"

Someone standing in the middle shouted, and the crowd fell into a more intense discussion. Mu Elegy frowned and looked at the source of the voice, unable to see anything in the dark, "I don't know the specific reason for today's incident. As for what you said I need to find out what's going on about the incident of going to work in the snow, as far as I know, my subordinates have emphasized the safety of workers, and they must not be tired or risk going to work!"

"Now that something has happened, it's natural for you to say so."

Mu Elegy ignored this sentence, turned around and asked Liang Chen to call the contractor and said, "We will definitely deal with this matter well, and we will make proper funeral arrangements for the workers who passed away. I, Mu Elegy, will do what I say." I hope everyone will not be misled by others and take the wrong road."

"Also, everyone here should be very clear. I, JW Company, have the ability to buy this land, and naturally have the ability to solve those messy people and things! No matter what the reason for this thing happened, I will definitely investigate to the end! When the aftermath is over, whoever wants to leave can leave immediately, and you can also go and see which construction company in this city can offer you such high salary and meal treatment! But I also said my ugly words before, if anyone If you want to cause trouble on my territory, I, Mu Elegy, will not be easy to mess with!"

"Let's take a rest for the past few days, and the construction site is temporarily suspended!" Taking advantage of the quiet time when the crowd fell into silence, Mu Elegy shouted the last sentence with all his strength.

Liang Chen looked at the thin woman beside him in a daze. Her thin body looked even weaker under the cold wind and heavy snow, but even though she looked weak, she was full of courage. There is no doubt that it is an affirmation of her personal charm.He began to understand that perhaps this was one of the reasons why so many people liked her.

"Mr. Mu." Someone from behind brought the foreman up, Liang Chen shouted and still stood there looking at the direction he was looking at just now, wondering what he was thinking about.

Mu Elegy turned around, glanced at the migrant worker foreman wearing thick winter clothes, shrunk his head and didn't dare to look at her, and immediately said to Liang Chen, "Ask him what's the situation, why he still has to start work in such weather today." Said He turned around and walked towards his own car, with his back facing Liang Chen, and pressed his hands tightly on his upper abdomen. After walking a few steps, he endured the severe pain and turned his head to tell him, "Check out who was shouting in the crowd just now. I'll go back first." Now, if you are fine, go back earlier and drive carefully."

"Okay." Liang Chen nodded and watched Mu Yange walking forward with some unsteadiness under his feet, thinking it was because the construction site was full of stones and gravel, so he didn't pay much attention. "Boss Mu, drive carefully."

Mu Elegy didn't make any answer, because she tasted the familiar fishy sweetness again.
