Chapter 156: Let Shen Xi guard against you?
"Before Zhuang Yan left, I showed all my hole cards and confessed again, but he refused. When Zhou Jin said this, he was calm and light, and he was not sad at all, but his face showed a hint of relief.
I don't understand her at all, she is the one who ran back and wanted to renew the old relationship with Zhuang Yan, and now she is the one who has generously said that she has quit. Why can she be so able to hold it and put it down?
Her hole card is to let Zhuang Yan know how much she has secretly helped Zhuang Yan, such as which customers she matched, and which customers she secretly handled. In her cognition, if she was Zhuang Yan in the past, she would definitely be moved to hug her after knowing this.
The reason why she has accumulated a lot of money is to let Zhuang Yan know the truth and completely arouse his old feelings.
But she said that she was wrong, Zhuang Yan was very calm throughout the whole process, except for a little surprise, all she could give her was the word "thank you".
This was completely different from what she expected: "For the first time in so many years, I lost so completely, I confessed to him again, talking about the past, but his reaction was very cold, as if he was listening to someone else's story. Do you know how I felt? All of a sudden, I felt like my brain was flooding my head after so many years of stubbornness. ”
She was like Jiang Yang and the others before, and she was very confident that Zhuang Yan still missed her, but the truth made her a complete failure. If you don't reach the Yellow River, she is talking about her obsession.
Zhou Jin didn't complain too much, what she admired was her open-mindedness and decency: "Shen Xi, as far as I know, Uncle Jiang's imprisonment back then was probably related to Zhao Yaru's family, but Uncle Zhuang had such a good relationship with Zhao Yaru's father, don't you think it's very subtle? The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, Zhuang Yan's family is so difficult to turn over this time, where is it so simple to be robbed of business." ”
I was taken aback and blurted out, "You mean, it was Uncle Zhuang and Zhao Yaru's father who partnered to send Jiangyang's father in?"
Zhou Jin smiled slightly and didn't nod: "I don't have evidence, I just guessed." Jiang Yang was very strict in this matter, you said that Jiang Yang had been friends with Zhuang Yan for so long, did he really regard Zhuang Yan as a friend? Shen Xi, you are still young, many things can only be seen on the surface, this world is darker than what you see, pay more attention in the future, if you can still get back together with Zhuang Yan, don't drag him down. ”
She is implying that the iron relationship between Jiang Yang and Zhuang Yan may not be true, how is it possible?
I asked Jiang Yang why he was so good to Zhuang Yan before, and he did joke with me. But I think his concern for Zhuang Yan is very real, and it can't be pretended.
I glanced at Zhou Jin suspiciously, because of my prejudices, I chose to stand on Jiang Yang's side in my selfish heart, and secretly comforted myself that it was Zhou Jin who was sowing discord.
In view of the fact that I had opened a room for my uncle outside before, Zhou Jin consciously booked a hotel early this time.
After dinner, when I cleaned the husks in the living room, I found a yellow envelope stuffed into the gap of the sofa, and inside was a heavy pile of red tickets. Looking at the two lines on the envelope, my heart warmed, and I quickly looked at my grandmother: "Uncle left us a sum of money, grandmother, this must have been saved by my uncle from a year's salary." ”
I estimate that there are about 20,000 yuan in it, because he was not his uncle's own son since he was a child, he was very angry with his aunt, if it wasn't for Zhou Jin's father who has been secretly taking care of him, he wouldn't be mixed up now.
In fact, I didn't think about asking him to pay for his grandmother, because he was poor, so he got married relatively late, and being able to live in peace in the future is the best comfort to my grandmother.
My grandmother secretly wiped away a handful of tears, and looked at me with the money in the envelope: "Xixi, this money ......"
"The money was returned to my uncle, and my younger brother still had to study, and their family was not rich. I've worked and can afford you. ”
I thought that the rent of the small family might be due soon, so I approached the landlord. The landlord said that Zhuang Yan had renewed the rent for two years a few years ago, so he let me live with peace of mind. My grandmother and I were kind and the little house was cleaned up, so the landlord liked us as a tenant.
Carry still has the money that Zhuang Yan left me, and when I don't have enough money to make myself, I will start using that money.
Seeing that I said so simply, my grandmother lowered her head and secretly wiped a handful of tears: "Oh, okay, Xixi is really good." ”
"Grandma, you rest early, I'll go find my uncle. ”
When I arrived at my uncle's hotel, I accidentally saw Jiang Yang's car outside the hotel. It's the one I've been in before, and I won't admit it.
I looked around in wonder, and finally saw Jiang Yang in the flower bed next to me, with his hands in his pockets, and he was talking to someone with his head down. I wanted to go over to say hello to him with doubts, and when I got closer, I could tell from the sound that the person he blocked was Zhou Jin!
"Jiang Yang, what is the purpose of asking me to tell Shen Xi about those?
Jiang Yang snorted lazily: "It's all helped, don't ask so much." ”
Zhou Jin smiled: "You are so good with Zhuang Yan, have you really been using him to investigate something behind your back?" Jiang Yang, I don't see that you still have the potential to act." Tell me if you are tired now, tell Shen Xi directly if you have done anything wrong, and let me take a detour to remind her. ”
"The little girl is simple-minded, and it's for her good to stay away from me. Zhuangzi is my iron buddy, how can I use him?" Jiang Yang stomped his feet irritably, squeaking the snow on the ground, "Zhou Jin, you have to go, hug one, I wish you to find a man to marry you as soon as possible, don't become a complaining old woman......"
I was so frightened that I crouched on the edge of the flower bed, and if it weren't for the bushes, they would have seen it.
I've only listened to it for a short time, and my hands, feet, and heart are already cold.
Uncle Zhuang really hurt Jiang Yang's father? I can't even look for Jiang Yang in the future, right?
As the two of them embraced, I cautiously bent out of the flower bed, and there were fireworks going off near the hotel at the time, so I guessed that the sound of snow was muffled.
I walked around the nearby pedestrian street for half an hour to digest what I had just heard, and Zhou Jin herself didn't know if Zhuang Yan's family had any grudges against Jiang Yang's family, what she told me was what Jiang Yang asked her to relay.
I took out my mobile phone in horror and called Zhuang Yan, but I didn't get through, and then I remembered that he was not in China, and I sent him a message on WeChat. I told him everything I had just heard, and although I didn't know why Jiang Yang did this, I suddenly felt sad.
Before Jiang Yang's father was released from prison, everything seemed to be out of control, who was the crazy person? Uncle Zhuang was right, it was originally the grievance of the previous generation, why should it involve the next generation.
When I went to the hotel to deliver the money again, Jiang Yang's car had already left. I pretended to return the money to my uncle as if nothing had happened, probably because he felt that his self-esteem had been hurt, and his face turned red.
"Uncle, I have enough money on hand, we are all a family, so I don't have to care so much. ”
He muttered twice, "It's all family," and then showed a smile that was uglier than crying: "Child, I've suffered you all these years." My uncle's phone is on 24 hours a day, so you must remember to call me if you have anything. I wanted to take my mom back for a while, but your aunt hasn't been feeling well lately, so ......"
"Uncle, it's okay, I can take care of it. I'm afraid my aunt is not uncomfortable, but I don't want to add such a "burden" to my grandmother's life.
There are no classes in the last semester of college, as long as you submit your thesis to your supervisor on time.
The message sent to Zhuang Yan took two days to get a reply, Zhuang Yan told me to settle down and be busy with graduation and work, don't worry so much: I will ask about the situation on Yangzi's side, don't scare yourself, behave.
I immediately replied with a message: I miss you very much.
He quickly dialed the Sightpass call, and I held my breath at the sight of his face. He frowned, and behind him was the empty room: "Hee-hee. ”
I suddenly remembered a poem: There are no words for each other, only a thousand tears.
I had a lot of things to say to him, and I wanted to tell him about my grandmother's illness, but these words went to my throat so hard that I was stunned by the silence of my mouth.
He didn't say anything after he called me, and we just looked at the camera stupidly, and he was still groping the camera with his fingertips, as if he wanted to touch my face.
I smiled at him, "Why didn't you tell me the day you left?"
He shook his head: "You're here, I'm reluctant to leave." Xixi, you take care of yourself, don't always eat and sleep badly, how can you rest assured that you tell me like this. ”
"Oh. I suddenly didn't know how to answer, I used to be able to tell him all the messy little things, but now I don't want to say anything, "We didn't really break up, when we can come back, you can come back and look at me." ”
I subconsciously touched my belly, hoping to conceive his baby immediately so that he would return to me as soon as possible.
"Hehe, okay. Zhuang Yan's expression was very normal, which gave me a lot of comfort, "Xixi, you take the time to see Lele these days, my father is going to send Lele to my sister-in-law's house to raise for a while." ”
"Can I go and see it? What if Sister Yaru finds out?"
He habitually raised his hand towards me, and the hand he held was obviously trying to touch my head: "It's okay, even if you announce that you have broken up, it will be forced, just don't admit it." Be careful on the way to and fro, and let Bao Yuanyuan accompany you if you can. My sister-in-law's house is far away, and Lele will go to my sister-in-law's house in the future, so it will not be so convenient for you to meet again. ”
After he finished speaking, he motioned for me to hang up, and I quickly asked him, "Can I still contact you in the future?"
He smiled: "Yes, but due to the time difference, I may not be able to reply in time." ”
At the time, I thought he meant that he might have to do the same in the future, and that he would have to reply to me in a day or two, only to find out later that the meaning of his words was very different from my understanding. That's an afterword.
When Bao Yuanyuan accompanied me to see Lele that Saturday, I saw a person I didn't want to see.
