Chapter 22: The Thunder That Stops the Clouds and Destroys the Wind (14)

Zhishen said to Cheng Xi: "Please invite them into the east hall, I will be ten minutes later." ”

"He's not going to stop. He's just letting you know that he's going to take it back anyway. Jingyi said with a smile, "I'll leave tomorrow...... Before leaving, I'll go meet the third brother. ”

"What about Father? You have to wait for your father to come back. You can't leave without your father's consent. "Cautious.

"I'm sure my father expected that. He won't stop me from going back. Brother Jiu went and found a way. Do what you have to do. I also believe now that there is no problem that money cannot solve. If money can't solve it, then it's really a problem. Jingyi said, not looking back.

She didn't want to say any more.

It almost drained her energy, and she couldn't say any more.

She is only a small leaf, but she faces stormy waves; And she still wants to persevere in this stormy sea...... She looked at her reflection in the glass window, and there was a wry smile on her lips.

Zhi Shen was in a hurry to go to the meeting, and hurriedly took Cheng Xi away.

Jingyi was alone for a long time, and when it was dark, she looked through the window at the bright room on the ground floor of the wing, and the figures were shaking. It should be prudent to discuss countermeasures with others...... She breathed a sigh of relief, and as soon as the lights in the room came on, it was Hui'an who came.

"Are you alright, Jingyi?" Hui An asked softly.

Jingyi looked at her, shook her head with a smile, and said, "Sister-in-law, I've worked hard for you these days." I'm the one who gets into trouble everywhere I go. ”

"What are you talking about?" Hui An came over and looked at her face, which was worse than when she came back. "When you come back, your mother will be much better."

"I can really walk with peace of mind." Jingyi said, taking Hui'an's hand, "In the future, please." ”

Hui An looked at her and said softly, "I know your thoughts. Jingyi, go according to your heart. You have to be good, and we are so relieved. You see, you don't eat well or sleep well, but you're thinner than when you came. If you keep going like this, you're going to get sick. ”

"No, I don't. I'll go back to Lanzhou tomorrow. There is a doctor to take care of you at any time when you go back. Jingyi smiled and nodded, looked at her watch, sighed, and said, "I really have to go out first...... The ninth sister-in-law doesn't care about me, she eats outside and comes back. ”

"I'll go with you." Hui An is not at ease.

"Sister-in-law," Jingyi smiled, "I'm not a child anymore. You have to take care of your mother and Ren'er, it's too hard. ”

She smiled clearly, but Hui An could see a trace of sadness in her smile.

Sure enough, she sent Jingyi down, Qiu Wei and Zhang's mother followed, and they hugged each other and got into the car. She stood there for a long time before she remembered that she should go and see how her lunch was prepared, and when she turned around, she saw Shen standing inside the door. She was stunned for a moment before asking, "When did you come out?" ”

Zhishen asked, "Xiao Shi is out?" ”

Hui An shook his head and poured: "I want to go out and take a breath." ”

Zhishen frowned, and Hui An reminded him to go up to see his mother, and said, "It seems that there is something I want to explain to you...... The third sister-in-law sent someone to say that she couldn't come tonight and would come to visit her mother tomorrow morning...... I think you've been upset for the past two days, so it's better to sit with your mother and talk for a while. Things will pass, don't worry too much. ”

Zhi Shen nodded.

Hui An signaled that she had something to do and walked away first.

Zhishen looked at her busy figure for a while, and then went upstairs to see her mother. As he walked, he thought that a busy wife like Hui An, maybe Xiao Shi was also like this in the Tao family...... When he looked up, his mother's girl happened to come out of the room and saw him say hello, calling him "Ninth Young Master". He nodded.

When I went in, I saw my mother leaning against the head of the bed, reading the newspaper with glasses on. When I saw him come in, I motioned for him to come closer.

Zhishen went over and sat down, Mrs. Cheng looked at him for a while, and said softly, "Tell me what happened in the past two days." ”

"Mother just needs to take care of herself. Don't worry about the outside. Zhi Shen grinned.

Mrs. Cheng sank her face and said, "Then you can tell me the truth honestly." ”

Seeing that he couldn't get over, he said, "You say." ”

"Are you going to let Xiao Shi be wronged?" Duch asked.

Zhishen said: "I persuaded her to stay. ”

Du Shi looked directly at his son, his gaze sharp.

Zhishen felt a little numb on his scalp and said, "Mother, my father has gone to Shanghai to negotiate. I don't know what kind of conditions the other party will offer before I want to stop. Even if it is successfully resolved, the losses caused by this turmoil to the Cheng family will be difficult to reverse in a short period of time. Cheng's run on the city is not a one-time event, and there are a lot of signs that this person has spent a long time laying out, and now he is closing the net. Mother thinks about it, such a scheming...... Xiao Ten is in his hands, how can we rest assured? ”

Du Shi played with the jade Buddha beads in his hand.

The beads glowed with a faint green light, like a wolf's eye in the dark night.

Seeing that his mother didn't speak, Zhi Shen said in a low voice: "Besides, this head-to-head confrontation is in the mall, and the next time it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be a battlefield." Xiao Shi stayed in the Tao family, it was still difficult to do......"

"Lao Jiu, do you still think that Xiao Shi did anything stupid to resist marriage at that time?" Duch asked.

Zhi Shen thought for a moment and nodded.

"I don't care what calculations you and the third child have, even your father, I also said this in front of him. On the battlefield of the mall, you need to fight with real knives and guns. Xiao Shi's affairs, let her watch and do it herself...... This time she went back to Tao's house, Tao Xiang looked at her and stopped, even if she was rightful to Cheng Jiaren; If we don't stop, we won't have anything to say. Du said with a calm face.

"Mother!" Zhishen still wanted to defend, and Du Shi waved his hand.

……

Ma Xingjian parked the car on the side of the road, and Jing Yi, who was sitting in the back seat, had not spoken for a long time. The sound of the rain hitting the windows of the car drowned out the breathing of the few people sitting in the car. Of course, Qiu Wei and Zhang's mother tried their best to hold their breath, but Jing Yi was calm, and her whole person seemed to be frozen.

Jingyi took out the note from her handbag and looked at the address that Zhiluan had written to her, which was exactly this.

She asked Qiu Wei to accompany her out of the car, and after crossing this narrow street, behind the sky-blue wooden gate, was a small white two-story building. The house number and the electric bell have been soaked by the rain. Qiu Wei looked at Jingyi and raised her hand to press the electric bell.

It was a long time before someone came and opened the door, leaned out to see a young woman, and asked them what was the matter.

Jingyi asked him if this was Miss Haruko Fujino's residence.

The janitor looked at her and said that there was no Miss Fujino here. As he spoke, he was about to close the door, and Jing Yi hurriedly said, "Is Mrs. Tao there?" ”

Mrs. Tao's three words seemed to be a panacea, and the janitor's stiff face softened, and then he looked at her and asked, "Who are you looking for?" Mrs. Tao doesn't live here. This is just a house rented by Mrs. Tao. The tenant is gone, there is still half a year of lease left, and the house is empty. ”

Jingyi asked, "When did you move out?" ”

"Two days ago." Said the janitor.

Jingyi nodded and said, "I still want to come and see Miss Haruko and the child's ......"

The gatekeeper said, "Then it is a bad luck for you, wife." Maybe you should contact Mrs. Tao, she knows. ”

Jingyi asked, "Can I go in and have a look?" ”

The janitor hesitated for a moment and said, "Don't embarrass me, madam. I'm the janitor. ”

"I'm sorry. Thanks a lot. Jingyi looked inside the courtyard through the open door.

The courtyard is not large, and the flowers and trees are verdant.

There is a small grape trellis, hung with bamboo curtains, a wooden bed under the shelf, and a mat is laid out, so that the fat white baby will play and play under the grape trellis in the hot summer...... The door closed in front of her.

Jingyi turned around and was about to walk to the car, but only walked a few steps and stood down again.

Qiu Wei hugged her, and she said, "It's okay...... Let's go see Cersei. I promised her to play with her on Sunday, but I didn't expect it to come back......"

"Miss, it's okay if you don't go." Qiu Wei's face was wet.

"Let's go check it out." Jingyi went to the car and walked to the side of the car, she felt uncomfortable.

I leaned on one side and held on to the trunk of the tree, and I wanted to vomit, but I hadn't eaten anything and couldn't vomit.

Zhang's mother got out of the car early, held an umbrella for Jingyi to cover her head, took a shawl and put it on her, and sent Jingyi to the car almost half-hugging. Zhang's mother asked Ma Xingjian to drive home immediately, Jingyi no longer had extra strength, and Zhang's mother was in charge......

When she returned home, her appearance startled Hui An, who came to open the door in person.

Jingyi grabbed her hand and didn't let her make a sound, Qiu Wei didn't say a word, picked up Jingyi and left. The thin Qiu Wei carried Jingyi upstairs on her back, Jingyi leaned on her, and couldn't help crying, but she had to endure it desperately.

Hui An wanted to call a doctor, but Jing Yi refused.

"But how good are you, Jingyi." Hui An's face turned red.

"I have my own number, sister-in-law. Just get a good night's sleep. When it was time to sleep until dinner, my sister-in-law woke me up. Jing Yi shivered coldly and smiled reluctantly.

Hui An didn't believe that she would be good like this, it can be seen that she is like this, and she doesn't stand up to her face, she came out and quietly asked people to prepare ginger soup to ward off the cold, thinking about it, she felt that it was inappropriate, and she wanted to call the doctor, but she was stopped by Qiu Wei who came with her. Hui An reluctantly obeyed. It's just that the ginger soup was brought in by her personally to Jingyi, and after watching her drink it, she gradually settled down, and she really slept peacefully, so she was relieved.

Hui An was fine, Jingyi fell asleep, and she didn't go far. asked Qiu Wei carefully. Qiu Wei shook her head and didn't say. She figured out that there must be some reason, but it was related to the affairs of Tao Cheng's two families, no matter how anxious she was, she couldn't help, she could only care about Jingyi...... In the past few days, there have been many troubles, not to mention Jingyi, even she is very troubled.

Jingyi slept for a long time, but it was not stable. When she woke up, it was already dark, and she sat up, feeling lighter, still sweating, and wanted to take a shower.

Zhang's mother asked her to eat something before she went, and she obeyed.

I feel clear when I take a bath. I have a plan in my heart, and I want to get out of here quickly...... I just don't know what will happen when she goes back to Lanzhou to face Tao Xiang, and her only thought at the moment is that she should go back.

Qiu Wei asked someone to come and light the fireplace in the house, and Jing Yi came out and nestled on the sofa to make a fire. It's warm, and I don't care if I sweat when it's baked.

"Young grandma has adapted to the dryness of our house." Zhang's mother let Jingyi straighten her legs and pinch her.

Jing Yi thinks about it, isn't it? When she came here, it rained every day, and she was always damp. Although they haven't complained, they must have seen it all in Zhang's mother.

The days are meritorious......

It's past dinner time, and Hui An has someone bring dinner.

Jingyi didn't want to eat, so she let Qiu Wei and Zhang's mother eat it, and watched by herself. Hui An came, and when she saw this, she hurriedly asked people to fetch juice for Jingyi.

"Thank you, sister-in-law." Jingyi thanked her for her thoughtfulness. The watermelon juice is fresh, sweet and refreshing.

Hui An smiled.

The two of them sat by the fireplace, talking in and out of pairs. I don't talk about it closely, it's nothing more than an interesting story about the two of them visiting Beijing together that winter...... "The third brother's wedding was a sensation, and I can't even remember it clearly." If you want to think about it now, you are drunk and hazy...... You also asked me for watermelon juice that day, do you remember? Hui An asked with a smile.

Jingyi nodded.

Vaguely remembered...... The liquor I drank for the first time, the dancing in the shadows, the lips that touched one place dangerously, and the beating heart...... Fireworks overhead...... His handsome face in the fireworks flickering...... I vaguely remember this, in fact, in my heart.

It's just that when I think about it at this time, every time I think about it deeply, my heart hurts a little.

"Ah, one day I saw a photo taken by my brother-in-law at my third cousin's house. There are a few volumes of masquerade balls, and my cousin said it was your bar mitzvah that year...... It's gorgeous...... "Hui An exclaimed softly.

Jingyi tilted her head.

His eyes are already full of tears, and when he tilts his head, the tears will not remain...... It was as if a hand was holding hers, and of course she could not see his face, for he wore a mask that obscured half of his face. He had a nice voice and asked her if she could ...... His demeanor is so good. Although he didn't talk to her anymore and just took her for a dance, she wouldn't forget that dance, and that masked face...... So much so that much later, she could recognize a person just by covering his eyebrows...... Although she recognized it a little later. Didn't tell him either, she already recognized him.

Originally, I wanted to keep it a little secret, and maybe one day, I would talk to him. Expect a knowing smile and a warm hug......

It's still distressing, and it's getting more and more painful.

She fled into the bathroom, lying on the edge of the sink for a long time......

Through the door panel she heard the sound of the radio. There are only a few radio stations, and they are changed and finally fixed, and the crisp female voice is subdued and frustrated, but there are no emotional ups and downs.

“…… Fei Yuming used his position to facilitate his smuggling of illegal drugs......"

Hui An frowned, Qiu Wei froze, and Zhang's mother didn't seem to understand at all.

Jingyi pushed the door open, and only Hui An looked back at her.

[Chapter 22, End]

She asked softly, "What charge?" ”

"Bandits." Hui An replied.
