Chapter 424: Watermelon

As he spoke, Meng Xianyang lowered his head and ate a few bites of food.

The waiter brought the fish pieces and pork rib soup to the table, and Jiang You asked her to bring a large bottle of Coke.

Jiang You first ate a piece of winter melon to relieve the greasy taste, and then drank half a bowl of soup, he asked Meng Xianyang: "How old is your grandfather?" ”

"Eighty-three."

Zou Zhichao comforted him and said: "I have a long life, it is a joy and a loss." ”

"Yes," Meng Xianyang sighed, "Grandpa has always been in good health, when he was in his seventies, he could still work in the fields, when my parents wanted to pick him up, he was not happy, but he was so old that he lived alone in the countryside, and he was not at ease." After picking it up, I started to go out for a walk, and after being lost a few times and being found back, I stayed at home and watched TV, my grandfather was very smart, I bought him a mobile phone after work, taught him to use WeChat, and he learned it at once. ”

"That's pretty impressive." Jiang You took the Coke from the waiter, poured a glass and put it in Meng Xianyang's hand.

Meng Xianyang reluctantly pulled the corners of his mouth, "Later, I was confused, when I went back for the Chinese New Year this year, I called him, and he didn't recognize me anymore." ”

After Jiang You handed the cup that had been poured eight points full to Zou Zhichao, he took a sip of Coke, "When you are old, it is good to have children by your side." ”

Meng Xianyang also drank Coke, "When I was a child, I still pestered my grandfather to teach me the Tao, he didn't want to teach, let me read hard, I saw that there were many ancient books in his room, I thought it was a magic cheat, so I took advantage of his absence, and stole it out, it was all traditional characters, or classical Chinese......" He shook his head, "I asked my grandfather later, what about those books, he and said they were burned, saying that it was useless, and when sorting out the relics, there were only some clothes, and the magic ruler." ”

"Could it be your grandfather," Zou Zhichao paused, "does he have any unfulfilled wishes......

Meng Xianyang put down his chopsticks and said, "My grandfather won't harm me." ”

"That's for sure," Jiang You picked up the words, and he asked, "Are you starting to feel something wrong?" ”

"When I came back the day before yesterday, I was fine, but I felt tired, and I talked to Zhichao."

Zou Zhichao said: "Yes, you arrived home at seven or eight o'clock the night before yesterday. ”

"And then?" Jiang You asked.

"Later, when I came back, I felt very tired, and I put half of my things down, so I just lay down on the bed and fell asleep, and suddenly I felt as if something was pressing on me, very heavy, but I couldn't wake up."

"Didn't you wake up all day yesterday?"

"I woke up once, and the phone alarm went off."

"Are you up then?"

"I got up, but I was in a special trance at the time, I knew it was wrong, and then I thought about going to work, but ......" Meng Xianyang shook his head, "Then I heard the sound of flushing in the bathroom, I knew that Zhichao was up, I didn't know what was wrong at the time, I suddenly had strength in my body, and I walked out all of a sudden, but when I wanted to speak, I lost my strength again, I couldn't speak, and I returned to that special trance state." ”

"I haven't eaten." Jiang You spit out the fish bone.

"Probably, then, then, I fell backwards to the ground, the door was closed, I seemed to fall asleep again, and I had many, many dreams, and finally, I seemed to be in a small dark room, I couldn't get out, and it seemed like it was getting harder and harder to breathe, I felt scared, I knew I was going to wake up, I had to wake up, I desperately wanted to wake up, but when I woke up, I saw my own hands going to strangle me......"

Meng Xianyang picked up the cup and drank the coke in the cup in one go, he took a few deep breaths, "Then I heard a knock on the door, and after a while, Brother Jiang came in." ”

He looked at Jiang You, "Brother Jiang, you saved my life." ”

"Then you remember to invite me to dinner when this matter is over."

"This one wants it."

"Come on, come on, eat vegetables and eat vegetables," Jiang You picked up a piece of braised fish, under the slightly charred fish skin was tender white fish meat, and the slightly spicy sauce hooked out the umami of the fish, and after eating a piece, he said: "This one is quite good for rice, I'll go and let them serve rice." ”

Jiang You stood up, he opened the door of the box and walked out.

Zou Zhiqiang looked at Meng Xianyang and bowed his head to reply to the news, he said: "You have a good rest, Brother Jiang is right, let's just take care of ourselves, other people's affairs, the company's affairs, have to be ranked behind." ”

Meng Xianyang nodded.

He raised his head, looked at the dishes on the table, picked up chopsticks, took a piece of ribs and took a bite slowly.

After dinner, Jiang You told Meng Xianyang a few words and told him to sleep well. Then, he took the car back to the worm house. Thinking that I was a little tired of eating dinner, I bought a watermelon and brought it back when I passed by the fruit stall. Cut it in half, put it in half in the refrigerator, then took a spoon and squatted on the steps to dig and eat.

Zhaocai walked in front of him.

"Here, eat watermelon."

He dug a spoonful and threw it on the ground.

Zhaocai walked over, took a small tentative bite, and then licked and gnawed and ate.

After eating, Zhaocai squatted beside Jiang You and rubbed his head against his trouser legs.

The soft moonlight sprinkled over the courtyard.

Jiang You raised his head, a little pink, dangling in the night sky.

"Tomorrow there is business, subduing demons and subduing demons," he touched the hair on Zhaocai's back, "stop running." ”

……

At less than ten o'clock the next day, Jiang You woke up. He rolled over a few times, intending to get to bed for a while, but couldn't find a comfortable position, so he sat up in frustration.

"I'm used to running every day," he said, looking down at his stomach, inhaling hard, and touching it with his hand, "I'm about to work out my abs." ”

Exhale, and the belly regains its elasticity.

Washed up, went downstairs, went to the next door and ate a bowl of ravioli. When he returned to the worm house, he saw Qingyang Daoist standing in the courtyard.

After some pleasantries, Jiang You brought the Qingyang Daoist into the store.

"You're still your tenant this time?" Qingyang Daoist asked.

"Yes," Jiang You walked out of the kitchen with two cups of tea, then he walked to the counter and took out the magic ruler from his satchel, "That's it, Dao Chief, look at this magic ruler, is there a problem." ”

The Qingyang Daoist did not take the ruler, but asked, "What do you see?" ”

"There's something black," Jiang You sat down after putting the ruler on the long table, "It's a spiritual particle, right?" ”

"Do you know when Section Chief Tang will come back?"

"I don't know."

Qingyang Daoist took a sip of tea, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Do you remember the small building on the mountain behind Lao Jin Mountain?" ”

"Yes."

"It used to be where the institute worked."

Jiang You took the cup and waited for the Qingyang Daoist to speak.

"The institute plans to move back," Qingyang Daoist paused, "If Section Chief Tang comes back, please mention this matter to her." ”

"You don't want the institute to move back?" Jiang You asked.

Qingyang Daoren nodded, "That's natural, the level of secrecy of the research institute is extremely high, if you move back, many activities of the White Crane Temple will be restricted." ”
