Every Time I Wake Up, I Become A Suspect
Chapter 177

Since Zhu Henry, the owner of the company, was confirmed dead, and the landlord Fei Jianming was arrested by the police, Niu Xiaoting left the city and returned to the village.

She was really depressed for a long time, unable to figure out what went wrong.

She lost her parents since she was a child, and she was brought up by her grandma. The family conditions are indeed very difficult.

When she just graduated from junior high school, her grandma suddenly got a serious illness. In order to take care of the old lady and reduce the pressure of life, she gritted her teeth and chose to drop out of school.

Wanting to better restore grandma’s health, she took on all the heavy responsibilities of the family. While doing housework, she followed other elders in the village and took a tricycle to the surrounding villages to sell kung fu and do farm work.

Although Niu Xiaoting is young, she is the most able to endure hardships, and can earn a hundred or so yuan a day.

With some money in hand, she can buy better medicine for grandma. Under such meticulous care, grandma’s body bones gradually became stronger and gradually returned to normal.

After that, grandma also tried to persuade her to go back to school.

However, she has already completed the nine-year compulsory education, and she voluntarily gave up the opportunity to continue her studies when she graduated from junior high school. It seems that it is difficult to find a suitable school that allows her to complete her studies.

Coupled with the required tuition fees, grandma’s body is no longer enough to support her to continue to work hard, so Niu Xiaoting can only lie that she does not want to go back to school.

Two or three years later, as an adult, she had the idea of going to the city to work.

After saying goodbye to the old lady, Niu Xiaoting came to Jiangcheng City alone with her bags on her back, and successfully found her first job as a market researcher in Henry Market Research Company.

What happened next, there is no need to say more.

As a result, within half a year, she returned to Donglong Village in despair.

Could this be her destiny? Niu Xiaoting was thinking dejectedly, lying on the bed all day long, as if she had completely lost her desire for life.

Grandma saw it and was anxious, but she didn’t dare to say anything. She could only cook every meal without complaint, put it lightly on her bedside, and come back to put away the dishes when the time came. Walk.

On this day, the old lady put her breakfast on the bedside table as usual, and after glancing at the figure on the bed who was still tightly wrapped in the quilt, she sighed silently, turned and went out.

After a long while, the person under the quilt moved, and Niu Xiaoting poked her head out, her eyes were cloudy, she didn’t know what time it was.

After habitually washing up, she picked up the porridge on the cabinet and was about to take a sip when a familiar female voice suddenly came from the yard: “Old Mrs. Wang, it just rained yesterday. , Now the mountain is full of mushrooms, go up the mountain with us to pick up some mushrooms!”

It should be the aunt of the neighbor’s house.

As soon as her words fell, the grandmother’s old answer sounded: “Don’t go, I have old arms and legs, and the road is slippery after the rain. If I fall, I will hurt others.” Niu Xiaoting had already moved to the window at this time

, Looking into the yard, the old lady was sitting on a small bench at the moment, scrubbing the dirty clothes in the big basin in front of her, with a stooped back and silver hair.

Inexplicably, she felt a little sour in her eyes, and a feeling of self-blame swept through her heart instantly.

The aunt next door didn’t leave after hearing the old lady’s words: “I remember that Xiaoting came back a few days ago? Just let her go with me. Do you know how much mushrooms in the city cost now?” How about a catty? If you pick up some, you can eat it for several days!”

“She…

She has something else to do, so she won’t go…” Before the old lady finished speaking, there was a crisp response behind her. “Auntie

, wait for me for two minutes, I’ll go to the warehouse to find a basket, and then let’s go. “Niu Xiaoting specially wore a suit of mobile clothes. After taking the basket, she greeted her still dazed grandma, and then went into the mountain with the aunt next door. Some time ago, she was too selfish

, Because of some setbacks, she willfully implicated grandma and herself to suffer together.

But what if she failed to enter the city? Even in the countryside, she can still make grandma happy in her later years.

How many people go to the city, and the money is earned. But at the same time, she also lost the company of her relatives.

Thinking about it this way, Niu Xiaoting only felt enlightened. Having time to spend with her family is a happiness that no one can ask for.

On the way to the back mountain, the aunt next door chatted with other people After a while, he suddenly turned around and asked, “By the way, Xiao Ting, you didn’t go to work in the city before, why did you come back all of a sudden? “

Well… I don’t have a degree, and I can’t find any good jobs in the city, so I thought I’d better come back to accompany grandma.” After figuring it out, Niu Xiaoting told the truth very calmly, not afraid of being laughed at by others.

She was so straightforward, but the others choked up, and all the slightly sarcastic words were stuck in their throats. Look at me, me Look at you, the atmosphere is very weird.

” Haha… Or, Xiao Ting is a filial child. “The aunt next door managed to find her words, and kept praising her: “Old Mrs. Wang really didn’t love you for nothing. “

” That’s right, that’s right, what’s education? I don’t know a few words, but it doesn’t stop me from farming to support my family! “

“Yes, yes, yes, going to the city to see other people’s faces, life may not be happy, it’s good to come back.”

The aunt next door nodded in agreement: “I will follow my aunt to sell kung fu in the future. As long as my aunt eats a bite of food, I won’t let you go hungry! ” “

Amidst the chatter of everyone, the group of them went up the mountain smoothly. After the rain, the mushrooms in the mountain grew wildly. Before reaching the halfway up the mountain, Niu Xiaoting had picked a lot in the bamboo basket on her shoulders.

Breathing the fresh air in the mountains, her originally muddled mind really cleared up a lot.

Xu Shi noticed that she was exhausted, and the aunt next door kindly proposed to sit on the stones on both sides of the narrow mountain road to take a rest.

He dug out the water glass he was carrying from the bamboo basket, and after taking a big gulp of the cool water, Niu Xiaoting wiped the sweat off her face, and took out her phone by the way.

With nothing to do, she turned on the video shooting mode and took some pictures of the beautiful scenery in the forest, which also made several female elders in the same village appear in the camera.

In the following time, Niu Xiaoting never put down her mobile phone, while picking up mushrooms, while chatting with the aunt next door.

The villagers living in the ravine seem to be born with rich natural knowledge. They talk about the varieties of wild mushrooms one by one. The names may not be accurate, but it is clear whether there are any.

She listened with relish, completely forgetting the passage of time.

By the time a group of people came down from the mountain, the sun was almost setting.

Back home in a hurry, Niu Xiaoting washed the mushrooms and showed her the video she took in the mountains during the day, in order to reassure the old lady.

Sure enough, grandma moved her head closer, and the smile on her face didn’t stop the whole time.

After reading it, the old lady got up, walked slowly in the yard with her hands behind her back, and said

Muttering: “That’s right, these mushrooms are really fresh.”

With a long sigh of relief, Niu Xiaoting made mushroom fried meat and mushroom soup at night, probably because of too much exercise during the day, so she ate two big bowls of rice by herself.

It was night, and the small rural yard was very quiet.

In Niu Xiaoting’s room, there was a faint light.

She was leaning on the head of the bed and watching short videos with her mobile phone. Suddenly, she had a flash of inspiration and simply cut out the few clips she had taken during the day, put them together and posted them on her account.

At first, Niu Xiaoting really didn’t think too much about it, she just thought about taking pictures and took them as a record of her life.

After that, she went to bed and slept, and got up early the next day to start busy work inside and outside the house.

First, I made breakfast for my grandma, and then cleaned up the weeds in the small yard, and it took a whole morning to do it casually.

It wasn’t until noon that Niu Xiaoting had some free time. She took the phone and opened it casually. Her eyes widened in shock, and the water she just drank almost didn’t come out.

The daily video that was casually posted before going to bed last night had over 10,000 likes overnight, and the number of fans on her private account had grown from a few to over 2,000.

Numbly flipping through the hundreds or thousands of messages at the bottom of the video, a thought suddenly popped up in her heart that she had never dared to think about before.

In the era of big data, traffic is king. If you can go down the road of recording daily life and become a short video blogger, isn’t it impossible?

Just do it when you think about it, Niu Xiaoting will be full of fighting spirit every day in the following days, as if infinite vitality burst out of her thin body.

The videos were released one after another, and the number of likes for each video was also constantly increasing.

The simple rural life she presented in the video, and the content of relying on mountains and eating mountains, aroused the yearning and love of many netizens. Netizens expressed that watching her videos relieved their pressure and felt a kind of light and quiet happiness. .

At the same time, the number of fans on Niu Xiaoting’s account is also growing explosively, from a few thousand to ten thousand, from tens of thousands to two to three hundred thousand.

It didn’t take long for advertising partners to come to her door, and she quickly enjoyed the sweetness brought by the traffic.

The number of fans of around 300,000 is not something to be proud of in the whole network, but Niu Xiaoting is already very satisfied.

Money confuses people’s hearts, and she has never seen so much money in her life until she was twenty years old.

Even if she only accepts a few advertisements in a month, she can earn 10,000 to 20,000 yuan or even more. This kind of income made her dizzy, and at the same time, her self-confidence grew rapidly.

Niu Xiaoting began to imitate other Internet celebrities, broadcasting live broadcasts, bringing goods, and earning commissions.

Although her appearance is not as beautiful as a flower, she is refreshing and eye-catching, and her voice is clear and crisp, making people feel like the sister who has no intentions next door, so the live broadcast room Its popularity is not bad, and when it is good, it can make thousands of dollars in one night.

Gradually, Niu Xiaoting felt that she was overwhelmed with product selection, customer service, and after-sales.

She even hired an assistant and paid the other party several thousand yuan a month, and the two of them completed the daily shooting and live broadcast together.

Her life with her grandma has also begun to flourish, or in other words, her life has begun to flourish.

Grandma is getting old, she can’t eat anything delicious, and she can’t go out to see the great rivers and mountains of the motherland

Well, it doesn’t mean much to her whether she has money or not.

It’s just that the granddaughter is promising, and the old lady must be happy.

Niu Xiaoting became what other elders in Donglong Village called a “promising person”. Not only did she renovate her house and courtyard, but she also bought a car.

Most importantly, she has an urban employee under her command.   Letting people in the city work for themselves is somewhat unbelievable to the villagers of Donglong Village. No one has to give a thumbs up and boast: “The ancestral grave of Lao Niu’s family is really

smoking!”

Niu Xiaoting was a little flustered, even though many comments on the Internet still accused her of changing the taste of the video, she still went her own way.

So what if the taste changes, while the traffic is still there, the most important thing is to make money.

She knows very well that in the era of big data, no one can go all the way to Changhong, accumulate original capital when there is enthusiasm, and then open a small shop or something at that time.

Until that day, the assistant took two days off. When she was planning to go up the mountain alone to shoot, she saw the bus parked motionless in the middle of the road on the national highway.

Niu Xiaoting never thought before that she could see her benefactor again.

After all, in her perception, the benefactor should be a ray of soul wandering between heaven and earth, or an immortal.

After the brief reunion with Officer Jiang, the next thing seemed to have little to do with her.

In order not to cause trouble for the police, Niu Xiaoting could only stand quietly in the safety zone planned by the police, watching the heroic figure of Officer Jiang and other police officers, rescuing a carload of hostages and confronting gangsters with dangerous weapons.

The success was within her expectation, and the tension and excitement could not be concealed during the process.

If it is reasonable to say that the police always take the safety of the people as their own responsibility, she was really surprised when she learned that the driver of the bus and a college student who was a hostage also participated in the rescue.

Before she could recover, another blockbuster news came one after another, which directly blasted her to death.

It turned out that she was not the only one who was lucky. The bus driver, the college student, and several other women who seemed to be very good were all helped by Police Officer Jiang.

During Officer Jiang’s hospitalization, Niu Xiaoting had in-depth contact with those sisters and sisters, and was intoxicated by the unique personality charm of each of them.

They have insight, depth, and heart.

From these sisters, she vaguely comprehended a truth.

A person’s success has nothing to do with education, background, or money. It is the depth of your thinking that determines the height of your life.

When Officer Jiang was discharged from the hospital, she also returned to Donglong Village.

After a few days of sleepless nights, she carefully looked through all the negative comments on her account, then stared at the poor rating of the account for a long time, and bit her lower l*p hard, as if she had made up her mind what a resolution.

In the next period of time, she ended the cooperation with those merchants as quickly as possible, and her income dropped by more than half.

But she calmed down and focused on the content and quality of the video, and slowly returned to the original daily style, no longer inserting advertisements in every video, but occasionally receiving some cooperation to maintain a basic life.

The assistant hired before, because she felt that she was starting to give up on herself and could not see any future and hope, so she took the initiative to resign.

Niu Xiaoting

He didn’t say anything to persuade him to stay, and after taking the initiative to pay the other party’s salary for several months, he was allowed to leave Donglong Village.

Could it be that she is planning to give up her status as an Internet celebrity and return to life itself?

Of course not, she has a more far-reaching career plan.

This practice of breaking her own arm caused her traffic to plummet in a short period of time, but soon, because of the excellent video content, the stability of her fans became better.

Niu Xiaoting officially started the work mode of helping farmers through the Internet.

At the beginning, she helped Donglong Village sell mountain products and agricultural products. When she came forward to discuss this matter with Murakami, she got the unanimous approval and cooperation of everyone.

After preparatory work, the first live broadcast of helping farmers was officially launched.

Because I had a certain fan base before, it was not a difficult start. On the first day, more than 100 orders were sold smoothly.

The price of online sales, even after excluding labor and transportation costs, is higher than the unified purchase price given by the previous merchants, and everyone is very satisfied.

This time, Niu Xiaoting tried to do every link herself. From the first step of selecting goods, to packaging and preservation, transportation, and the final after-sales link, she participated meticulously in the completion.

Tired is really tiring, and the interests of the farmers must be protected to the greatest extent, so there is no money to be made.

But every time she saw the bright smiling faces of the farmers when they were working, she finally understood the meaning of life.

Originally watching Zhou Manting voluntarily running on the land of Africa for the legitimate rights and interests of African girls, Niu Xiaoting was admiration mixed with ignorance. Now that she is caught in it, she also understands what the other party is doing.

The quality of the goods is high, and the after-sales service is also good. In addition, she is a voluntary laborer and resolutely does not charge for it. Therefore, the price of agricultural products in Donglong Village is also low, which can be called high quality and low price.

Soon, because of enough integrity, quality and quantity, the number of transactions in the live broadcast room changed from 100 to 500, and sometimes thousands of orders could be sold within a few hours.

Niu Xiaoting’s footprints are no longer limited to the small Donglong Village, but have expanded to the entire Qingshang County.

With the successful case of Donglong Village there, many villages in the county began to respond positively, and most of the farmers were also grateful. When facing her, their attitude was very enthusiastic.

No matter where she goes, Niu Xiaoting still only charges a meager fee to maintain her daily living expenses.

Since she led Donglong Village to open up online sales channels, everyone in the village has become her solid backing.

Some people will go to other villages with her to help for free when they have nothing to do at home, and some will automatically take on the task of taking care of grandma when she needs to work and can’t take care of the family, so that she has nothing to worry about. of worries.

The economic situation of several successive villages is very good, which has successfully attracted the attention of the county.

Most of the area in Qingshang County is cultivated land. It is natural to see better sales channels for the farmers’ harvest. After discussion, the relevant government departments not only praised Niu Xiaoting’s behavior, but also compensated her. A not-so-high monthly salary is used as encouragement, and I hope she can continue to carry forward her style in the future and lead farmers to become rich.

In this way, Niu Xiaoting became more motivated.

After that, she not only helped the villagers continue to sell agricultural products, but also visited several local agricultural product processing enterprises under the introduction of the county.

After repeated visits, communication and various understandings, Niu Xiaoting finally chose a company as a long-term cooperation partner.

This not only adds a fixed export channel for many farmers’ crops, making farmers’ income more stable, she can also help enterprises develop better, and at the same time, she can get some economic relief, which is a win-win situation.

Perhaps God always favors those who do things for the people sincerely. Niu Xiaoting’s account number of followers soon exceeded one million. From her videos, more people learned about Qingshang County, Jiangcheng City.

Green mountains and green waters are always very attractive to people in today’s society. In the next few years, many places in Qingshang County seized the business opportunities brought by network traffic.

Not only has the picking industry been successfully developed, but some villages have even set up farmhouses and set foot in the tourism industry.

The government of Qingshang County couldn’t help but laugh from ear to ear. Although the economic development of a region does not depend on the efforts of a single person, Niu Xiaoting’s selflessness at the beginning really opened up the road for the farmers in the county. The door to the outside world.

When the economic development of Qingshang County was gradually prosperous, Niu Xiaoting was ready to start again, and the scope of agricultural assistance began to slowly radiate from the small Qingshang County to the entire Jiangcheng City, and then to neighboring cities. , until the footprints are all over the province.

For so many years, she still maintains her original intention, not charging farmers a penny more, being responsible for farmers, and more responsible for customers who trust her, support her, and buy products.

In the process of constantly moving forward and struggling, she was also very lucky to meet a man who was just an ordinary person without any aura, just like the crops planted in the field, simple and tough.

But this man loves her enough, supports her, and silently walks with her every inch of land, without complaint or regret.

With a solid support behind her, Niu Xiaoting is more and more able to let go of her hands and feet, without worrying about her grandma, without worrying about retreating, and boldly start her own business.

In the fifth year after becoming an ‘Internet celebrity’, she received an invitation from the province and came to the provincial TV station to participate in the recording of the program.

It is said to be a provincial TV station, but it is actually located in the city center of Jiangcheng City, the provincial capital.

It is said to be a TV program, but it is actually an exchange meeting led by the Provincial Department of Agriculture. At the meeting, not only the experience exchange speeches of various agricultural leaders, but also an awarding session.

When the host on stage called out her name, Niu Xiaoting was completely dazed. After she realized it, she quickly stepped onto the stage and took over the heavy trophy from the honor presenter.

‘Advanced Individual in Poverty Alleviation’.

Looking at the large gold-plated characters on the base of the trophy, Niu Xiaoting followed the host’s instructions and walked to the microphone.

“Don’t forget the original intention, keep going!”

In the blur, she vaguely saw the figure of Police Officer Jiang appearing in the audience, and the familiar face was filled with relief and pride.
