Extra: "Sijun Across the Blue Sky" (12)
Jing Yi looked at it, and the thing that fell to the ground was yellow and clear. Not much, only three.
"What is this!" Steward Li lost his voice. He crouched down to pick up the bullet and was picked up by him. He looked at it and took the bullet in his hand to look at it carefully, "This...... There's still a king's law! It's just too deceitful! Who did it......"
Zhiyan didn't frown, and said: "This kind of indiscriminate means can only bluff ordinary people. β
He put the bullet away and looked at Jingyi.
Their tenth miss, how could they be threatened by a few bullets? Although they don't know exactly who the other party is, what is certain is that they must not know much about Miss Ten.
"Mr. Cheng, it's better not to go out today." Steward Li was worried.
"How's that going to work?" Jing Yi went over and took the envelope from Zhi Yan's hand. Before I could open the envelope, I asked for a bullet. It was heavy, and it collided in the palm of the hand, making a muffled sound...... She twisted a bullet and looked at the model on it.
"The bullets are very ordinary. Can't see anything. But Uncle Li is right, Miss Ten, let's go out later today. At least give us a little time to look it up. Zhixi said, just look at Jingyi's eyebrows as if she didn't care. But she didn't immediately object. "It's also safer to travel at staggered times. Miss Ten, your daily actions are too regular and easy to master. β
Jing Yi knew that Zhichen was sent by her father to protect her, and of course she knew something about the situation here. Perhaps the third brother also gave him instructions, so he said, "I'm not afraid of anything." β
"Miss Ten, before I came, the Third Young Master specially talked to me. I will go to see Section Chief Zhu Weizhu today and talk to him. Or if there is any action in the future, it needs to be agreed upon, so as not to make any mistakes between the two and things will not be easy. Zhi Zhi said bluntly.
Jingyi nodded and opened the envelope.
There was only a stack of photographs in the envelope.
Jing Yi turned the photo upside down and flipped it through her hand.
Zhichen couldn't help frowning when she saw her hands start to tremble.
Jing Yi raised her eyes to look at Steward Li, and said softly, "Let the car come later, I'll be half an hour late today." Brother Zhixi, come here. She said, pinching the picture and entering the door.
Zhiyi followed Jingyi into the living room, and before the two of them could stand, they saw Xiao Suixin, who was dressed in a pink morning coat, running down from the top of the stairs calling her mother - she was like a cherry blossom, drifting to Jingyi with the wind, followed by a snowball like a rabbit, jumping and spinning, screaming beside the mother and daughter - Sui Xin ran to Jingyi and asked, "Mom, is the white lion very sick?" Grandma said you took the white lion to the doctor...... Mom, is the white lion going to die? β
Jingyi handed over the photo to Zhi Xin, hugged Suixin, and smiled: "How can there be such a thing." Isn't it that the white lion is greedy and somehow swallows the yarn. The doctor will give it injections and medicine, and it will be fine soon. Still, bab. β
Then he stared at Jingyi intently, nodded and waited for her to continue.
"The white lion is weak. It's like a person who is sick and has to be nourished for a while. You also know that the white lion is an old dog, isn't it? Jingyi held Suixin's hand and slowly squatted down, her eyes at the level of Suixin. She looked at Suixin's clear eyes, pure and clean.
Sui Xin nodded again and said, "I know." The white lion is bigger than me. Dad said that if the white lion were human, it would be more than a hundred years old, and it would be too old. β
Then he said, his mouth flattened, and he looked like he was about to cry.
"Mom, I don't want to watch the white lion get sick." She said with tears in her voice.
Jingyi touched her face and said, "Then you will take care of the white lion at home these days, okay?" We're moving, mom has to go to work, we can't help much, grandma can't take care of so many things, you take care of the white lion, okay? β
Then he thought about it, nodded in agreement, and said, "Okay, Mom, I'll take care of the white lion...... But Mom, I have to take a leave of absence from Teacher Anna. There is a song she wants me to practice, and if I don't go to class, will the teacher think I'm lazy? β
Her serious demeanor made Jing Yi can't help but hold her face and kiss her fiercely left and right.
Sui Xin climbed her neck and said, "Mom, you tell Teacher Anna to go." I practice at home. β
"Okay." Jingyi agreed, and saw Zhiyi standing aside, "Also, Nannan, where to go to class in the future, let Uncle Yin send you there." β
Sui Xin didn't think there was anything wrong with this arrangement, so he stood there very politely and said to him, "Thank you, Uncle Xin." β
Zhixi raised his hand, waved his hand again, nodded, and shook his head...... He looked at this sensible little lady, and he was a little at a loss. It's just that he has excellent cultivation, and even so, he looks just as honest and rigorous as before, and he is not out of shape. But Jingyi knows him. He saw a flash of a smile in Jing Yi's eyes, and his face immediately became hot. Fortunately, Jingyi asked Suixin to go up to wash his face and change clothes and prepare for breakfast, so he waited for Suixin to take the snowball and left, and said: "Miss Ten arranged it right, I mean, don't let Nan Nan go out these days." β
Jingyi took the photo back and took a closer look at itβthe photo was obviously taken recently, and Mrs. Tao, Suixin, and her were the protagonists of the photo. The moment when Suixin got off the bus when she went to Teacher Anna's class, Mrs. Tao went out to visit an old friend, she came out of the hospital building, and she held Suixin's hand in the courtyard...... In each photo, they were unaware that someone was staring in the dark. And the danger is close at hand.
Jing Yi looked at the photo.
It's as if you can see that the camera is aimed at the location where they are shooting, and there is also a black hole in the muzzle...... The photo is of three people, and there are exactly three bullets. One for each person, just right. It creeped her bones and a fire in her chest.
"Don't tell the old lady about this beforehand......" Jingyi lowered her voice. She stood in the middle of the drawing-room, talking, and walked to the window, looking out at the courtyard that looked empty in the gloomy weather. "Be sure to find out who did it."
Her tone was like this gloomy day.
A province. He had never heard Miss Ten speak in such a tone.
If you can see Miss Ten's eyes, I really don't know what her eyes are like at this time, which always shine with kindness and gentleness...... He couldn't understand Miss Ten's feelings. If the threat was only herself, she would just laugh it off.
"Yes." Zhixin agreed.
Jingyi turned her back to Zhi Yan and said, "This time will be more difficult for you." β
"Miss Ten rest assured. I know what to do. Miss Ten, I'll go down first. Zhi Xi said.
"Okay." Jingyi was still standing by the window.
She listened to the sound of her footsteps fading away. Breakfast was being prepared in the dining room, and there was the sound of small crumbles and the aroma of food...... The whole house is waking up.
Aunt Li came out and told her that breakfast was ready.
She went into the dining room to sit down, and after a while Mrs. Tao came down with her heart.
She got up to greet Mrs. Tao, waited for them to sit down, and told Mrs. Tao about the trip to heal the white lion.
Mrs. Tao could no longer see the momentary sadness of last night, and listened to Jingyi's words, nodding from time to time...... The two discussed the move again before they started their own meals.
So she was quite satisfied with the fish fillet porridge that Aunt Li stewed for her this morning, and happily scooped a spoonful to her grandmother, and then another spoonful to her mother, and ate the rest.
Jingyi looked at the old and young in front of her, and really wanted them to live in a peaceful and stable environment carefree at this time, so that the war and crisis were far away from them...... Her eyes were hot, and she hurriedly took a big sip of coffee, letting the bitter taste of the coffee suppress the sadness surging in her heart.
She picked up the newspaper in her hand and looked at the news.
"In the future, don't read the newspaper at breakfast. This is also a problem with Lao Qi...... In the past, it was just that, but now the news in the newspaper is getting worse day by day, and I can't help but be depressed when I see it, and I can't restrain what I eat, isn't it a symptom? Mrs. Tao said softly and slowly. Although she said Jingyi, she also flipped through a stack of newspapers and pulled out the "Liangyou" magazine at the bottom. Looking at the cover girl, she said: "Two days ago, I saw that Mr. Qian's store had a dress that looked very good, just like this, look at it." Mr. Qian said that if you wear it, you have to fix it. I'll have him fix it to your size, and he should be able to bring it today, and I'll wear it to the ball that the Women's Salvation Association is organizing. Didn't you say you were invited to the fundraiser? β
Jing Yi was stunned.
There were a lot of activities that invited her to participate in this trip, and she was always too busy to participate. The ball of the National Salvation Association was set a long time ago, but she forgot about it, but she didn't expect her mother-in-law to take it to heart.
"It's still early, next month. However, I heard that the right to dance was auctioned...... I was a little hesitant that I shouldn't have said yes in the first place. But Mrs. Du's face can't be refuted. Jingyi calmly expressed her embarrassment. She is not like those celebrities who are mixed in the social world, although dancing is an ordinary thing, watching people bid to invite dancers like this, thinking about that scene, she is more or less nervous...... It's not that she's not generous, but she's been a wife for a long time. What worries is that the mother-in-law minds. It's just that if the mother-in-law chooses a dress for her...... She looked at the peacock blue dress on the cover of the magazine, it was conservative but very elegant, and it really looked goodβmaybe that was what encouraged her to go?
