Chapter 247 Heading to the Northwest

Feng Zhong shook his head again, "No."

"Okay, go ahead and get busy."

"Hey, Zhuzi is back," Feng Zhong just turned around and saw Tian Jinzhu walking in from outside.

When Jia Liang saw the person, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He walked over and asked, "What's going on? I heard from Lao Feng that you went back to Ancheng. Did something happen?"

Jia Liang's voice was low and concerned.

Tian Jinzhu didn't expect to meet Jia Liang when he came back, and his eyes dodged for a moment.

"It's nothing serious, just going back to take a look."

"It's nothing serious."

Jia Liang knew that Tian Jinzhu's family situation was complicated. Although her mother and stepfather had not been very kind to her in the past, now that the old people were old, they seemed to feel sorry for Tian Jinzhu when they were young, and would call her from time to time.

He went back for a meal.

Especially after his two sisters got married, Tian Jinzhu stopped communicating with his family because he was not doing his job properly.

Tian Jinzhu also felt a little sorry for his mother.

Although Jia Liang couldn't stand it, he didn't interfere too much in other people's private affairs.

"By the way, when will the batch of goods you mentioned arrive? I see that the bricklaying work in the store will be completed soon, and I plan to have the carpenters come in the day after tomorrow. The wood you ordered should also be prepared. If possible, have them bring the goods over in the next two days."

Tian Jinzhu had previously said that he had a connection and could buy better quality wood at a lower price, but the other party had to pay a deposit first, and Jia Liang had already given him the deposit.

Tian Jinzhu's face suddenly showed pain and guilt.

"Brother Liang, I'm sorry. There's something I haven't told you. My stepfather had a stroke a while ago and has been paralyzed in bed. My mother has been taking care of him. As a result, my mother accidentally fell yesterday and broke her bones. I really had no choice but to use the money to pay for her medical expenses. I'm sorry, Brother Liang, I should have told you in advance, but I was afraid that you would be disappointed in me, so I was thinking about whether I could borrow money in the next two days to pay for the goods. Who knew that I, brother, was incompetent and didn't borrow a penny..."

Tian Jinzhu squatted on the ground, pulling his hair helplessly.

Feng Zhong didn't expect that Tian Jinzhu would lose the money. He just stood there blankly watching Jia Liang's reaction.

Jia Liang sighed and pulled the man up.

"Tell me if you have difficulties at home. We have been brothers for so many years. Is there anything you can't tell me? Why do you have to move the construction funds from the shop?"

Tian Jinzhu raised his head, his eyes reddened, "When you and Monkey retired from the underworld, you wanted to take me with you. I know that I disappointed Brother Liang by not going with you that time, so I thought I couldn't disappoint Brother Liang again this time, so..."

He reached out and wiped away his tears, feeling extremely ashamed.

"Come on, what's the point of a grown man crying? Have you used the money and ordered the lumber?"

Everything else is easy to deal with, but the progress of the project must not be delayed.

"It's settled, it's been settled a long time ago," Tian Jinzhu nodded quickly, "All we need is the money."

Jia Liang breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay, come with me to get the money later. First, bring the wood. We can't delay the progress of the project. And have you got enough money for your mother's medical expenses?"

"That's enough. I'll take care of it when I get back home," Tian Jinzhu glanced at Jia Liang's face and said softly, "Thank you for your concern, Brother Liang. I will do my best in the future and will never make such a mistake again."

Jia Liang nodded and said nothing more.

……………………

After finishing all the work at the factory, Lin Chuxia packed her bags and boarded the train to the northwest.

Half a year later, the northwest in summer is completely different from the bleak winter. The crops are lush and green, and herds of cattle and sheep can be seen from time to time.

Lin Chuxia called Qin Yang before getting on the train. When the train arrived at the station, she saw the man in the crowd through the glass.

He was tall, and with a white shirt, neat short hair, and stern facial features, he stood out from the crowd.

The train was still moving, and the man's deep eyes were fixed on each window.

Lin Chuxia was sitting on a sleeper berth and knew that she couldn't be seen at all from this angle. She was in no hurry to respond and just rested her chin on her hand, admiring her man.

Oh, it really gets better and better the more I look at it.

Lin Chuxia knew that she was obsessed with looks and was lustful. She had always positioned herself very accurately. In her previous life, the handsome guys around her were of all kinds.

It’s just that those good colors are for viewing. As long as they are pleasing to the eye, keep them around.

As for feelings, there are none.

At that time, regardless of her experience and age, she looked at those young handsome men as if they were her sons.

Qin Yang was different. She only discovered in this life that not all good colors could make people's hearts beat fast. Qin Yang's words really made her like them to the core.

The train finally arrived at the station. Lin Chuxia carried her luggage and moved to the door little by little with the crowd. The man was already waiting there.

When he saw Lin Chuxia, his cold facial features softened and there was a faint smile in his eyes.

"Did you have a smooth journey? Are you tired?"

Qin Yang asked as he took Lin Chuxia's luggage.

"Yeah, it's okay."

When their eyes met, they were filled with longing and love for each other.

Qin Yang looked at those eyes that were as bright as stars, his chest swelled, and he wished he could hug the person he had been thinking about day and night in his arms immediately.

The coming and going of people and the noisy sounds around him brought him back to his senses. He realized that such behavior was inappropriate in public.

His Adam's apple rolled again and again, and he finally looked away, "The car is outside, let's go out first."

How could Lin Chuxia not see his restraint? Taking advantage of the cover of her body, she reached out and pulled his big hand, then gently tickled his palm twice.

The man's body tensed instantly, and just when she was about to run away after teasing him, his big hand nimbly grasped her small hand, squeezed it twice, and then hurriedly let go.

After clearing his throat twice, his ears slowly turned red.

Lin Chuxia followed beside him, watching his changes intently, trying not to laugh.

She really loved Qin Yang's innocent look. After all, he had not been influenced by the environment of later generations. Men of this era were still so conservative and innocent.

Even if two people have done the most intimate thing, they still act out of emotion and observe propriety in public.

Qin Yang is so perceptive, how could he not feel Lin Chuxia's gaze?

He tilted his head slightly to glance at her, "Watch the road."

Lin Chuxia smiled, "The road is not as beautiful as yours."

Qin Yang gave him a look: We are outside, so please be more restrained.

Lin Chuxia continued to laugh.

Qin Yang was helpless. He picked up his luggage and wanted to leave this crowded place as soon as possible. However, he was worried that he was walking too fast and Lin Chuxia could not keep up.

Once in the car, he started the car without wasting a second.

Lin Chuxia didn't continue teasing him and asked about his recent work situation.

Qin Yang mentioned in a previous letter that his work was nearing completion and would be finished in a few months at most.

Once I finish the work here, I will probably move to other places.

Lin Chuxia already knew the nature of Qin Yang's job. She had no idea about the next work arrangement, but she just hoped that the environment would not be as harsh as it is now.

Qin Yang also asked about Lin Chuxia's food factory.

Lin Chuxia only reported good news and not bad news. She only told him that a new production chain had been added, and he would be able to eat his favorite beef sauce anytime in the future.

The two chatted all the way, and it seemed like they had endless things to talk about.

Even after entering the office, Lin Chuxia was still chattering about interesting things at home.
