Chapter 529: Roundabout Inquiry
"Yes." Knowing what she was referring to, Qin Jinhuan nodded with a smile.
"But you didn't tell me that tonight's banquet was the engagement banquet between Team Rong and Teacher Feng!"
"You didn't ask me."
Knowing that he was deliberately teasing herself, she sneered and scolded "nasty", and at the same time secretly pinched his arm when she took his hand.
"Don't tell me anything about this big thing in advance! You have to prepare some congratulatory gifts! ”
"A gift? It has already been sent. ”
"Huh? When was it delivered? ”
"Afternoon. Are you still going to get close to Zhou Yitong by yourself? ”
"Hmm." Thinking that it was very likely that he would not be able to ask the result he wanted to know, Mu Yu's expression became a little solemn.
"My suggestion is to just let the police intervene." He didn't want to see her touch the dust.
"No way!" She refused, "It's just my personal speculation, I'm afraid that it has nothing to do with the case and delay everyone's time, and I'm afraid of ......"
"You're afraid of being made fun of, aren't you?"
She looked at him a little speechlessly.
Qin Jinhuan smiled and added softly, "But if she doesn't want to say it, even if the police intervene, it's useless, it's better for you to ask, it's easier for women and women to get closer." ”
"Is it possible that you think my guess is?" She looked at him unconfidently.
"There's nothing to lose if the guess doesn't hold up, but if everything goes as you expected, it's a super unexpected discovery. So you can try. Knowing that she wanted to do this, he encouraged her, but then added with some trepidation, "In case she doesn't cooperate, don't force it, I don't like my woman to be wronged by others." ”
Knowing that he was worried about her, she nodded earnestly.
"Zhou Yitong and Xiao Yuran have arrived, let's go in too."
"Huh!" Mu Yu suddenly thought of something, and secretly reminded him, "The janitor of the Xiao family only said that Zhou Yitong likes to go for a walk by the Yudai River, and it seems that he doesn't know the real purpose of Zhou Yitong's trip to the river, and Xiao Yuran must not know it, so you have to help me when I go to chat with Zhou Yitong......"
"Divert Xiao Yuran, right? Yes, sir. ”
"So smart, I'll put an extra piece of braised pork for you to eat later."
"No," he whispered as he leaned in to her, "just give me something to eat at night." ”
"Don't ......" suddenly realized that this was a public occasion, she immediately suppressed the sound of the word "face" to the lowest level, Qin Jinhuan saw this, grabbed her shoulder and squeezed it gently, and laughed secretly.
When the two entered the banquet hall, the sharp-eyed Mu Yu really saw Zhou Yitong, she was talking to a noblewoman, both of them had a smile on their faces, and Xiao Yuran was sitting next to her, and she didn't make a sound, just looked at her affectionately. If he hadn't heard Zhou Yitong complain about Xiao Yuran with a crying voice, Mu Yu would definitely be moved by this scene again.
"I thought I was early, but I didn't expect Mr. Xiao to arrive first." Qin Jinhuan pulled Mu Yu forward to greet Xiao Yuran and Zhou Yitong.
Xiao Yuran greeted them politely and explained with a smile: "In the afternoon, I accompanied Yitong to go shopping around here, and I didn't bother to go back when I saw the time, so I came to occupy a good position first." ”
Mu Yuwei almost immediately smiled and praised: "I hope that the men who accompany my wife to go shopping are good men." ”
Qin Jinhuan echoed with a smile: "Mr. Xiao is famous for loving his wife and spoiling his wife, and everyone in Ancheng knows it." ”
Xiao Yuran laughed, took Zhou Yitong's hand and said affectionately: "The main reason is that my wife is so good, I can't help but spoil her." ”
At this time, the lady who was chatting with Zhou Yitong had left, and Zhou Yitong looked at Xiao Yuran and smiled: "Mr. Qin, Mrs. Qin is just joking with you, are you still serious?" ”
"Are you kidding? You ask Mr. Qin if Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Qin are joking? ”
"Of course not." Mu Yu preemptively responded, "What we say is the truth, the truth." Mrs. Xiao can be described as a model husband and wife, and everyone envies her. ”
Zhou Yitong smiled and waved his hand: "Mrs. Qin is laughing, in fact, Mrs. Qin is an enviable pair, talented and beautiful, how happy she is." ”
"There's no need to fight, you are all happy and enviable." Xiao Yuran chuckled and interjected.
"Sure enough, 'happy families are all alike.'" Zhou Yitong smiled and made a summary.
"Is Mr. Xiao here?" Qin Jinhuan asked Xiao Yuran.
"Come, just talking to me." Xiao Yuran turned his head and looked.
"I want to talk to him, I wonder if it is inconvenient for Mr. Xiao to take me to him?"
"Yes." Xiao Yuran glanced at Zhou Yitong when he answered, Zhou Yitong immediately bowed slightly, and Xiao Yuran and Qin Jinhuan left the table.
"Mr. Xiao is really considerate." Mu Yu smiled and sat down beside Zhou Yitong.
"Mr. Qin is the same." Zhou Yitong responded very politely.
"Mrs. Xiao, I think you are very childlike, yesterday you hugged Nian'er, but Nian'er didn't cry."
"It's not that I have a child, it's that Nian'er is too well-behaved. Whoever hugs him won't cry. ”
"Really? Eh, it's a pity that I had a cold yesterday and didn't dare to approach Nian'er, otherwise I would have hugged him. ”
"It's okay, it's going to be a long time coming. By the way, is your cold getting better now? ”
"Thank you Mrs. Xiao for your concern, I hung up water and took medicine yesterday afternoon, and I am already well. Yesterday, when I was hanging in the water, my Xiaoxi came to see me, and she mentioned you to me, but she was full of respect for you, saying that you are beautiful, gentle, kind and capable, and the most loving doctor she has ever seen. ”
"I'm just a psychiatrist." Zhou Yitong corrected with a smile, but judging from the smile on her face, she still liked to listen to these compliments.
"Mrs. Xiao, thanks to your enlightenment, Xiaoxi is where we are today, and our family is very, very grateful to you."
"It's nothing, the heart of the doctor's parents, watching their patients slowly get out of the predicament and move towards a new life, is also a very happy thing for psychiatrists."
"You are really a doctor with great medical ethics, no wonder Xiaoxi praises you and worships you in all kinds of ways."
"Mrs. Qin is too boastful. It's all about doing your job. ”
"Mrs. Qin's title is awkward, I don't like it very much, if Mrs. Xiao doesn't mind, call me Mu Yu, I think it's more kind."
Mu Yu just wanted to get close to Zhou Yitong, but he didn't expect Zhou Yitong to laugh happily when he heard this: "Actually, I don't like the title of wife or young grandmother very much, I like others to call me Yitong or Doctor Zhou." ”
"Me too! I don't like people talking to me by your name, so let's be casual. Mu Yu laughed.
She wanted to add that she also likes to be called Forensic Doctor Mu by others, but she was afraid of causing Zhou Yitong to be sensitive, so she didn't say it, but seeing Zhou Yitong nodding in agreement with her words, she changed her tone and asked, "Xiaoxi said that your consultation room is very warmly arranged, that you are a very person with a good taste for life, and that the scenery near your home is also very beautiful, and you always invite me to see it together, but it's a pity that I am busy every day and haven't been able to accompany her to go with me until now." ”
"Miss Qin may be used to staying in the city and seeing too many high-rise buildings, so she thinks that I am special there, but in fact, I am a rural place, that is, there are more trees, flowers and plants, and there is no exquisite scenery." Although Zhou Yitong said this, her tone was full of joy, obviously she was very satisfied with the environment she lived in.
"It's just that there are many trees, grass, and flowers to have fun. I grew up in the mountains, and I have a special affection for flowers and plants. Although I came to Anseong with my parents when I was very young, I still remember the small river that flowed through the entrance of the village, and I remember my grandfather taking me to fish for shrimp. At that time, I was still young, and I was only allowed to stay on the shore and watch. It's been many years since my grandfather died, but every time I go to the river, I think of him and the happy days we had fishing together for shrimp fishing. It's a pity that such days can only exist in memory forever. Seeing that Zhou Yitong had been staring at him, Mu Yu pretended to laugh embarrassedly, "I'm sorry to make you laugh." I suddenly thought of some things from before, and I couldn't help but sigh for a while. ”
"Thank you for sharing this with me, I can understand your feelings." Zhou Yitong didn't smile, his face was sincere, "I am also a child who grew up in the mountains, and there is a stream in front of my house." When I was a child, my grandfather and father often took my younger brother and me to the creek to fish and catch crabs. My brother and I didn't really do much to help, every time we went it was fun, and sometimes we would make trouble and help them, knocking over the basket of fish and crabs, and making them work in vain for half a day. Every time my dad was furious, if it wasn't for my grandfather to stop me, my brother and I would have been beaten. Later, my father died in an accident, and my grandfather, who lost his son in old age, couldn't stand the blow and couldn't afford to be sick, so he took my hand before he died, and told me to take good care of my brother and mother, telling me not to be naughty in the future. I was nine years old at the time, and I already knew what it meant to die, and I grabbed his hand and cried and begged him not to die. Grandpa told me to be strong and said that if I miss him in the future, or if there is something I want to say to him, I will go and sit by the river, and say that as long as there is a river, there is him, and he will bless us in heaven. ”
"I'm sorry." Seeing that Zhou Yitong's eyes were covered with moisture and his voice was choked, Mu Yu hurriedly picked up the paper on the table and drew a few sheets for her.
Zhou Yitong knew that he was out of shape, took the paper and gently wiped the corners of his eyes, and took a deep breath, then chuckled and said, "It's okay, you just mentioned your grandfather, and it reminded me of my grandfather."
When she spoke again, her voice had returned to normal.
"We all have a good and kind grandfather."
"Yes." Zhou Yitong smiled, picked up the hot tea brought by the waiter and took a sip to moisten his throat.
"Eh, it seems that you and Mr. Xiao's home is not far from the Yudai River, right? That section of the embankment is not developed, so there should be quite few people going to that section of the embankment, right? I really envy you, if you miss grandpa, you can go to the river at any time, unlike me, if you want to find a quiet riverside, you have to travel a long way. In order to match his words, Mu Yu gritted his teeth and sighed, looking helpless and envious.
"In the future, let Mr. Qin find a piece of land near the river and build a house, won't it solve the problem?"
"I have already had such thoughts, Ah Huan is also looking for a suitable place along the Yudai River. But now it seems that the location of your home is the best, it is noisy close, far away and too remote, and the transportation is inconvenient. Well, if your home is a resort, I can always go over and stay for a few days, walk around the neighborhood and walk around the river. ”
"If you don't dislike it, feel free to come and stay at my house."
"Xiaoxi said that your house is like Yaochi Wonderland, where can I dislike it? I'm just sorry to disturb you and Mr. Xiao. ”
"It's okay, he's often not at home, you and Xiaoxi come when you have time, it's Layue, you can come to my house to enjoy the plums."
"Really? You're welcome. ”
"You're welcome."
"But it's winter now, so I guess it's not easy to go to the river, right?"
"Unaffected, the embankment over there is neatly repaired, and the road leading to the embankment has been repaired. In addition, because there is a mountain behind it, it blocks the wind, and even in winter, the wind cannot blow, so it is suitable to go to the river embankment at any time. ”
"I wonder what the moonlight is like at night over there?"
"The night view is also beautiful, and when there is a moon on the night, the river is sparkling, which is a different feeling."
"You have to be busy with the consultation room during the day, so I guess you usually go to the river at night, right?"
"yes. Sometimes I go for a walk over there after dinner. ”
Finally aroused the topic, Mu Yu couldn't hold back his excitement, and forced a casual look to ask: "Eh, Doctor Zhou, I heard that there was a murder by the sluice of the reservoir not far from your house a few nights ago, I wonder if you went to the river embankment that night to ......"
"Ahem, ahem, ahem, ahem......"
Zhou Yitong suddenly coughed sharply and interrupted Mu Yu's words.
