Zhou Cangnan stretched out his hand and tugged the hat on Concubine Tao's head: "It seems that you did well in the exam, what do you want to eat at noon to celebrate?" ”

"Where's Lin Mengmeng?"

"I went out shopping, and I said I didn't have to wait for her for lunch."

Concubine Tao nodded, thought for a while and said, "Then let's eat a bowl of beef noodles, and save money to buy new clothes for Xiao Saturday." ”

Zhou Cangnan couldn't cry or laugh: "Are you afraid that I won't be able to support you two?" ”

Concubine Tao nodded calmly: "Yes, so we have to be frugal now." ”

She thought that if she wanted to live a luxurious and petty bourgeois life, she still had to earn money by herself, so that she could spend it to straighten her waist and be full of confidence!

At the very least, if the two quarrel, they can also wander the world as soon as they pack up, and they don't have to be afraid that they won't be able to live and can't support their children when they leave home.

Zhou Cangnan patted Concubine Tao who was in a fugue: "Let's go, let's eat first, take a lunch break after eating, and then take the exam in the afternoon." ”

Concubine Tao originally planned to eat a bowl of ramen, but Zhou Cangnan insisted on ordering ten more skewers of barbecue, he clearly knew that Concubine Tao was a carnivore, and if she didn't eat meat for three days, she would call the same life as a rabbit.

"Eat more meat and have a good exam in the afternoon. If you don't eat well, your brain will get confused. Zhou Cangnan thoughtfully wiped off the black ash on the iron head of the meat skewer with a napkin, and then handed it to Concubine Tao.

Concubine Tao was happy: "You are quite similar to your eldest brother, with a halo of fatherly love." ”

Zhou Cangnan couldn't cry or laugh, and touched Concubine Tao's head across the table: "It's nonsense, hurry up and eat." ”

As soon as the beef noodles were served, a group of people came in when the door was pushed forward, led by the young man named Zhang Peng.

Concubine Tao happened to be sitting facing the door, and when she looked up, she could see these people, pouting, and bowing her head to eat noodles.

The people behind Zhang Peng originally wanted to point at Concubine Tao and say something, but looking at Zhou Cangnan, who was facing away from them, was dressed in a military uniform, as well as the two bars and two stars on his shoulders, he suddenly lost his arrogance. Quietly go to the empty table on the side and sit down, and eat quietly.

When he entered the examination room again in the afternoon, Zhang Peng's attitude towards Concubine Tao was very polite: "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I was wrong in the morning." ”

Concubine Tao was surprised: "Who is your sister-in-law, you don't climb relatives indiscriminately." ”

Zhang Peng scratched his head: "Isn't the army calling for a sister-in-law?" ”

"You're not a warrior." Concubine Tao was a little crying and laughing.

"If I don't pass half of the exam next year, my family will send me to the army in the winter." Zhang Peng leaned against the table and said with a smile on Erlang's legs.

Concubine Tao glanced at Zhang Peng: "How old are you, can you still be a soldier?" Backdoor soldiers? Aren't you afraid that people will say that you are too old to look anxious? ”

Zhang Peng was embarrassed again: "Why are you talking so poisonously, don't I have a good chat with you?" Besides, what's wrong if I don't work, I still get paid every month! ”

Concubine Tao looked at Zhang Peng with contemplative eyes, Zhang Peng was a little hairy, and quickly got up and slipped back to her seat, and kept patting her mouth, why did she tell her about eating empty noise.

After the exam in the afternoon, Zhang Peng didn't talk to Concubine Tao anymore, and when he passed by Concubine Tao, he also pretended not to know him.

Concubine Tao is very happy, she doesn't like to get in touch with people she doesn't know well, especially people who don't fit her eyes, no matter how good the other party is, she can't like it.

Out of the examination room, Zhou Cangnan was still standing at the school gate waiting for her, they were all adults who took self-exams, and Zhou Cangnan was the only parent who accompanied the exam.

"What do you want to eat at night? Be sure to eat something good and have a good night's rest in the evening before you can continue to refuel for the exam tomorrow. As soon as Zhou Cangnan saw Concubine Tao, he immediately cared about dinner. He felt that the exam was very brain-draining, and he needed to take some good supplements.

Concubine Tao was happy, and stretched out her hand to hold Zhou Cangnan's arm: "You will fatten me and Little Saturday like this, haven't you seen that I have gained weight recently?" By the way, has Lin Mengmeng come back? ”

"I'm back, I'm waiting for you in the room, saying it's too cold to come out, just call her when you eat."

Concubine Tao's eyebrows were crooked: "Where is she afraid of being too lazy to come out, obviously she doesn't want to be a light bulb." ”

When the two arrived at the hotel, Lin Mengmeng was not in the room.

Concubine Tao and Zhou Cangnan waited in the room for almost two hours, but they didn't see Lin Mengmeng come back, where did some strange people go?

Concubine Tao went downstairs and asked the waiter at the front desk, but she also said that she didn't see Lin Mengmeng.

It's strange, it's getting dark, where have the people gone?

"Lin Mengmeng doesn't know anyone in the city? It doesn't take that long to go shopping, right? Concubine Tao was a little worried, especially since Lin Mengmeng was kidnapped once. Something must have happened on such a cold day.

Zhou Cangnan denied this: "People related to Sun Hongwu are now being watched by the Anti-Corruption Bureau, and they don't dare to make any moves at all." And when Lin Mengmeng went out, the waiter didn't notice it, and he must have gone out voluntarily, not coerced. ”

Concubine Tao was still anxious: "What if Meng Meng meets a bad guy after she goes out?" ”

Zhou Cangnan shook her head: "No, her character is that even if she needs to buy something, she will buy it by the way when we go back and go out together, she is too lazy to make a trip." ”

Concubine Tao is right to think about it, just after a while, Lin Mengmeng will indeed be too lazy to make a trip.

"Could it be that the eldest brother is coming?" Concubine Tao suspected that only when Zhou Cangbei came could Lin Mengmeng run out without forgetting her friends.

Zhou Cangnan still shook his head, if Zhou Cangbei came over, he would definitely leave a message for them at the service desk, thinking of going to the service desk and calling Zhou Cangbei's office.

Zhou Cangbei was still working overtime in the office, and his brows furrowed when he received the call: "Are you sure you didn't go out to buy something?" ”

"I'm not sure, so I'll call you, she shouldn't be wandering around outside on such a cold day."

Zhou Cangbei was silent for a while: "You go out first to look for it, and I'll rush over in a while." He hung up the phone and called Song Xiuyan in the capital again.

Let Song Xiuyan help him quickly check some things.

While hanging up the phone and waiting for Song Xiuyan to call back, Zhou Cangbei's fingers tightened and loosened slightly, and tapped lightly on the table. He suddenly stood up and paced to the window, looking at the dark night, and his heart suddenly suffocated and ached, as if there were thousands of vines tightly wrapped around his heart, making him feel inexplicable panic and pain.

He never smoked, so he went out a little anxiously, asked the person in the next office for a cigarette and a lighter, and hurriedly lit it and took a deep breath.

The phone rang suddenly.

Zhou Cangbei hurriedly walked over and grabbed the microphone: "How is it?" ”

A beautiful voice like a cello bass came from the opposite side: "Qin Jiang went to Xinxing half a month ago, and his intentions are not clear." If it has something to do with the events of the year, you have to be more careful. ”

Zhou Cangbei hung up the phone heavily, and the truth of the matter was finally about to surface and be exposed to everyone.
