The northern suburbs of Hongshan City, construction site.

The construction site building is already six or seven stories high, and the construction workers are busy up and down.

Suddenly, I heard the little foreman Cheng He shouting: "Meng Hao, hurry up, if you don't finish moving this pile of bricks today, you won't be able to get off work early!" ”

A grizzled young man agreed, pushing the cart back and forth even harder.

Unexpectedly, he ran so fast that he couldn't stop the momentum, and almost bumped into a master mason who was walking in front of him.

The mason casually scolded, "Are you blind? A lame leg is not at home to recuperate, and he actually ran out to do a small job, I really don't know if Cheng He is blind and actually left you behind! ”

When Meng Hao was in his hometown, his left leg was broken, and he was slightly disabled after recovery.

This disability actually does not delay work, and it is not easy to see it even when walking, but there are still many people with low eyes who call him "lame legs".

The mason's surname was Zhao, and he was one of the most disgusted people on the entire construction site, and he cursed as he lifted his foot and kicked the cart over.

Meng Hao's eyes were red with anger, but as a small worker, he really wanted to get into trouble with the master mason, so he didn't want to do this job.

In the end, he could only swallow his anger, and when Zhao Masonry scolded and walked away, he squatted down to straighten the cart and continued to work.

He is twenty-four years old, not very tall, only 1.73 meters.

looks not ugly, but it's not handsome, it's the kind of public face that can't be found in the pile.

When he came to the construction site two months ago to look for a job, his thin body and clean clothes really didn't look like a capable small worker.

I didn't expect him to be very hard-working and much more down-to-earth than other small workers.

What's more, he didn't care much about his salary, so Cheng He kept him and allowed him to leave early in the evening and come later in the morning.

It was already evening at this moment, and Meng Hao hurriedly loaded the last few bricks onto the cart, only to find that there was a rusty small iron box under the bricks.

When I opened the box, I saw an old book wrapped in black cloth.

When I flipped through it, the book was all blank, and there was not even a single word.

"Whose box is this, and does anyone want it?" Meng Hao shouted.

Cheng He immediately walked over and saw that the inside of the box was just an old book, and there were no words on it, so he shook his head and said, "Who wants this old thing, eighty percent of it is garbage thrown away by people!" ”

With that, he turned and walked away.

Meng Hao didn't care, so he put the small iron box aside.

Quickly sending the last truck of bricks to the lift, Meng Hao said hello to Cheng He, and hurriedly changed into clean clothes at the construction site, and washed his face.

Suddenly remembering the small iron box, he hurriedly picked up the box again, and rode one of his motorcycles to rush home.

Don't look at him as just a small worker on a construction site, but he lives in a small villa in an upscale community.

It was a gift he gave to the old man when he married Xiang Sisi, the daughter of the local wealthy family.

However, at Meng Hao's insistence, all the property rights of this villa fell under the name of Xiang Sisi.

As soon as Fang approached the villa, Meng Hao secretly said that it was not good.

Because he saw a car parked at the door, but it was not his wife Xiang Sisi's car, but the car of the rest of the Xiang family.

Sure enough, as soon as he opened the door, he saw his father-in-law Xiang Yubai and his mother-in-law Chen Youlian, as well as Xiang Sisi's eldest sister Xiang Niannian and her man Ge Yunqiang, who only got married last year.

"Dad, Mom, sister and brother-in-law are here!" Meng Hao hurriedly said hello.

"Don't call me Mom, I don't have a son-in-law like you!" Chen Youlian scolded as soon as she opened her mouth, her face was longer than a donkey, "What are you doing when you run out in broad daylight, you can't be looking for a woman, right?" ”

You see, he doesn't run out during the day, but only at night?

However, Meng Hao only dared to mumble in his heart, and said with a smile on his face: "I'm idle at home, go out and see if I can find something to do!" ”

He worked as a small worker at a construction site behind Xiang Sisi's back, and naturally the rest of Xiang's family didn't know about it. He would beg Cheng He to allow him to arrive late and leave early, precisely for this reason.

"Looking for something to do? Why should you! Xiang Niannian sneered, "Didn't Sisi give you 10,000 pocket money a month, isn't it enough for you to spend?" Besides, what can you find to do, do business? Do personnel? Or do you want to find a financial account, and then embezzle a huge amount of money to buy stocks? ”

These words pierced Meng Hao's heart.

Two years ago, when Meng Hao first came to Hongshan to join his grandfather's old comrade-in-arms, he told the old man that he would have a great future when his eyebrows were shining, and he half-jokingly asked the two granddaughters if anyone was willing to marry Meng Hao.

Xiang Niannian refused.

After thinking about it all night, Xiang Sisi took the initiative to ask to marry Meng Hao for some reason.

The old man Xiang was happy to see it, but Xiang Yubai and his wife only scolded Xiang Sisi for being crazy.

But at the insistence of Xiang Sisi, there was also the old man Xiang who presided over the overall situation, and finally Xiang Sisi married Meng Hao.

and moved out of the Xiangjia house and lived in this small villa given to the old man.

Soon after getting married, Xiang Sisi asked Meng Hao to work in a company under her name.

Meng Hao is actually very hard-working, but he is only a college graduate, and he is really unable to do management in a large company.

In business, there was no new customer for half a year, but the old customers were poached by other companies one by one.

Doing personnel, the personnel department is in a mess. Because everyone didn't listen to him, everyone thought that he was a wreck who relied on women, and looked down on him from the bottom of their hearts.

Xiang Sisi had no choice but to transfer him to the finance department, even if he didn't understand finance, as long as he was willing to learn.

Meng Hao is indeed willing to learn, and he is gradually able to do accounts independently.

But at that time, the company had a sum of money missing, and after investigation, it was found that Meng Hao embezzled it to buy stocks.

Meng Hao was completely stunned, he had not embezzled public funds at all, let alone bought any stocks.

But those stocks were indeed in his name, but they had plummeted into a pile of waste paper.

Meng Hao jumped into the Yellow River and couldn't wash it, and no one listened to him at all.

Including Xiang Sisi, he was so disappointed in Meng Hao that he directly asked him to leave the company, gave him 10,000 pocket money every month, and let him stay at home and eat soft rice.

Meng Hao is not a spineless person, but he is reluctant to leave Xiang Sisi, even if he and Xiang Sisi are just a nominal couple, he also wants to maintain this relationship as much as possible.

What's more, his sister Meng Xin is in college, if he leaves Xiang's family, Meng Xin's life in school will not be as comfortable and not bad as now.

So Meng Hao could only swallow his anger and continue to stay at Xiang's house, and when he was idle during the day, he went to the construction site to work as a small worker.

But Xiang Xiang family decided that he was idle at home eating soft rice, and found a small villa at the end of three days and asked Meng Hao to cook and serve them.

It's not early today, and Xiang's family has been waiting hungry.

Meng Hao could only sneer at the Xiang family, and quickly made a table of good dishes and good meals.

It happened that Xiang Sisi also came back from overtime in the company, and Xiang's family sat down to eat.

Meng Hao knew that sitting at the dinner table would only be insulted to his family, so he simply hid in the kitchen to eat.

I heard Chen Youlian outside say: "I really don't know what you think, you have to marry such a lame man!" If you listen to your mother and marry Nie Feng, the third son of the Nie family, how can you use overtime every day until this time? If you want me to say that I divorced this lame leg earlier, Nie Feng is still waiting for you! ”

Nie Feng is the third son of the Nie family, a famous family in Hongshan City, born with outstanding appearance and extraordinary courage, and is very famous in the entire Hongshan City.

But Xiang Sisi was very uninterested in Nie Feng, and let Nie Feng coax Xiang Yubai and Chen Youlian to only recognize him, but Xiang Sisi refused to even go on a date with Nie Feng alone.

"I don't have to worry about my business, okay? Meng Hao is a wreck, why don't you come to see him a few times! ”

Xiang Sisi was annoyed by the words, so he simply left his job and went upstairs.

Chen Youlian was not angry, and later found a reason to vent all her anger on Meng Hao.

Meng Hao knew that they wanted to force him to take the initiative to divorce Xiang Sisi, so he could only grit his teeth and let her scold.

But the more he did this, the more angry Chen Youlian became, and finally raised his hand to slap Meng Hao, and then left angrily.

Meng Hao is a big guy after all, even if he has been used to being bullied by them, he still can't help but clench his teeth and endure so hard.

It wasn't until he had been gone to his family for a long time that Meng Hao swallowed his tears back, washed the dishes, wiped the table, and went back to the room to wash and sleep.

He and Xiang Sisi have never had sex together, which is the condition that Xiang Sisi negotiated with him before marrying him.

He originally thought that with his patience and affection, he would let Xiang Sisi open his heart to him sooner or later.

But now it seems that everything is just a fantasy, and he and Xiang Sisi are basically people from two worlds.

He is a shrewd and capable rich lady, but he is a poor boy who can't do anything just after graduating from college, not to mention this life, even in the next life, Xiang Sisi may not really fall in love with him.

He tossed and turned in bed for a long, long time, and his heart was as bitter as Coptis chinensis.

He really couldn't live like this, so he finally made up his mind that as soon as his sister Meng Xin graduated from university, he would divorce Xiang Sisi.

If Xiang Sisi refuses to leave, he will also move out and live alone, Ning Yuan is a little poorer and tired, it is better than wearing this hat of "eating soft rice" and being insulted by thousands of people.

Once he made up his mind, he felt a lot more comfortable, and slept soundly that night.

The next morning, he got up early the next morning to help Xiang Sisi make breakfast, and waited for Xiang Sisi to drive away, and Meng Hao rushed to the construction site on a motorcycle.

Nothing happened in the morning, and in the afternoon, when he was busy, Zhao Masonry upstairs shouted to Meng Hao to help above.

Meng Hao's left leg is only slightly disabled, and with a little care, he can walk smoothly on the scaffolding.

It's just that other masters will try to avoid letting Meng Hao go upstairs, but this Zhao masonry loves to toss Meng Hao when he has nothing to do.

was carrying what Zhao Masonry wanted and walked cautiously across the scaffolding, but a brick flew from nowhere and smashed on Meng Hao's head.

Meng Hao was wearing a hard hat on his head, and this smash was fine, but he couldn't stand firmly under his feet anymore.

In the exclamation of many people, Meng Hao's thin figure fell from the six- or seven-story scaffolding.

My sad life is finally over!

This was Meng Hao's last consciousness before he fell into a coma.

……

As if in a dream, Meng Hao felt like he was flying into the air, and returned to the small villa in a blink of an eye.

The small iron box he picked up from the construction site was placed under his bed, and Meng Hao bent down to get under the bed, and felt a huge attraction that sucked him into the small iron box at once.

The wordless ancient book was still in the small iron box, which had been completely blank and without a single word, but now it had a shiny font.

On the cover of the book is written four big characters "Starry Sky Counting".

It was a very old text, but Meng Hao didn't know why, but he could easily recognize it.

Meng Hao immediately went into the book and read it carefully—he didn't know what was going on, he didn't turn the pages one by one, but went directly into the book.

And once he got into the book, the words in the book quickly poured into his mind, and it was simply unforgettable.

What's even stranger is that as he pondered and comprehended the words, not only did he learn many facts that he shouldn't have known, but at the same time, subtle changes began to occur within his body.

It was as if there was a stream of air in his body, gradually condensing in his body, and then slowly flowing along his internal organs.

Until he cried out "Ahh

He was living in the hospital, and his sister Meng Xin was standing in front of his hospital bed with tears on her face.

"Brother, you finally woke up, if you don't wake up again, I don't want to live anymore!"

Meng Xin's tears were like a fountain, and she held Meng Hao's hand tightly without losing it.

"I'm fine, I'm feeling totally fine!" Meng Hao said, sitting up.

Meng Xin hurriedly rang the bell to call the doctor, but Meng Hao stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "Call the doctor later, I have a few words with Miss Zhu!" ”

The Miss Zhu he said was standing in the ward now, with a pair of beautiful eyes squinting at Meng Hao indifferently and with contempt.

Her name is Zhu Xiaoxiao, she is Xiang Sisi's personal secretary, and she is also the person Meng Hao is most unwilling to see.

Because this woman looks down on Meng Hao from the bottom of her heart, and she is Xiang Sisi's best friend since childhood, Xiang Sisi's trust in her far exceeds that of Meng Hao, the nominal husband, so every time she sees Meng Hao, she is always sneering and merciless.
