Chapter 162 Chapter 162 Leisurely, so many elm seeds...

Two days later, this group of police colleagues who came to Anxi to study couldn't wait to leave Anxi.

Ji Mingcheng, who had been racking his brains to teach in the past two days, took the people he had caught to teach his colleagues the most advanced forensic knowledge, broadening the knowledge reserves of his colleagues in various cities in the province.

Lu Jianian was fine, but Jason was really upset and started complaining to Qiu Jiang.

"Ji Sir always knows this trick. He'll drag you into this situation first and then give you a handful of delicious food as compensation. I've been working on a PPT all night and haven't had a good sleep these past two days."

He pointed at his rather spectacular dark circles, the depression he felt was so intense that he almost looked like a wronged ghost.

Qiu Jiang comforted Jason and made him feel better. However, when they finished their meal and drank some wine and were walking back with their leader, his smile froze.

"Mr. Lu, why do I feel like Qiu Jiang has tricked me?"

He was clearly thinking about continuing to complain at that time.

In the end, I actually chatted with her happily, without even thinking about who had caused my sleep time to be infinitely shortened in the past two days.

Lu Jianian didn't say anything, just patted him on the shoulder.

"Go home."

"I?……"

Jason stared, feeling that his intelligence was despised by his leader.

He had taken an IQ test when he was studying abroad, and he was definitely a highly intelligent person. How could it happen that he was looked down upon?

Jason really didn't want to admit that this was true, but no one would listen to his explanation, so he could only swallow his anger, feeling very wronged.

Qiu Jiang didn't know that her tricks on others had been discovered, but it didn't matter if she was discovered. After all, they were all good friends, and friends were meant to be tricked.

She had nothing to do for the next two days, so she accompanied her brother and sister-in-law to see the restaurant they liked. It was a two-story shop with an area of nearly 200 square meters. It used to be a Sichuan restaurant. Recently, because they were going back to their hometown to develop, they were eager to sell the property.

The price was also very affordable, just over 330,000 yuan, leaving more than 100,000 yuan for renovation, so Qiu Hengan and his friend were very fond of it.

After seeing it, Qiu Jiang also thought this place was nice. The most important thing is that although there are not many people on this road now, there will be a lot of people during rush hour. It is definitely a rare and good location.

Most importantly, the price is really right.

So the two sides met quickly and signed an agreement.

The boss was also very straightforward. Not only did he complete the process quickly, he also left all the items in the store for them to use.

Although these furniture, pots, pans, etc. showed signs of use, they were still about 50% to 60% new and had no problems at all, which saved them money.

As for the original decoration foundation, it is not too bad. They just need to simply paint and clean it up and add some things, and then they can officially open for business.

Qiu Hengan has been very motivated recently. Even though his legs still cannot walk, he works very hard and is busy all day long. Shi Yuexiu is also worried about him working alone, so naturally he also helps him with the new store.

As for her two older nephews and nieces, they were doing internships at their internship units because they performed well, so usually only she and her younger nephews and nieces were at home.

Fortunately, the three of them were not bored, but were curled up on the sofa in Ji Mingcheng's house watching the big color TV.

The two children have the same aesthetic taste as their aunt and think Seiya is so cool. Whenever Seiya encounters trouble, they get so nervous that they clench their hands, but when he defeats the enemy, they clap their hands happily.

There is a great sense of heroic ambition and shared hatred for the enemy.

Just as excited as they were was Sasha, who loved human cubs very much. She sat obediently between the two of them and watched TV with them. She was so cute that the two children hugged her and petted her madly.

It can be seen that he really likes it.

As for the two adults, Qiu Jiang and Ji Mingcheng, they did not appear in the living room at all.

Instead, a tug of war ensued in the cloakroom on the second floor.

"Want to go play?"

"Me? No no."

"Why?"

"This is too expensive."

Qiu Jiang refused repeatedly and almost retreated three feet.

However, Ji Mingcheng was leaning against the door, making it impossible for her to even leave.

Seeing his persistence, Qiu Jiang sighed, "Captain Ji, these are too valuable. I can't afford to return them."

She is honest and principled.

You should not accept a gift of greater value from someone when you cannot afford something of equal value in return.

Seeing all the different kinds of jewelry in the room, she had no doubt that there were few that she could afford, so she refused to buy any of them.

Ji Mingcheng rubbed his temples with one finger, looking like he had a headache, but he respected her choice and took her downstairs.

Qiu Jiang followed him angrily, but was also a little curious about why there were so many women's jewelry in his house. Were they all sent by his mother?

Could it be that his mother gave it to him as a gift to a girl?

Qiu Jiang felt that she had been exposed.

At the same time, it’s no wonder why he was in a hurry to get rid of these things. It must be that he was annoyed just looking at them.

After all, when they first met him, he clearly showed resistance to falling in love. There was even an incident where their team overheard Captain Ji arguing with someone who looked like his mother.

It can only be said that every family has its own problems, and Captain Ji’s family’s problem is even more incomprehensible.

I became more and more curious about what Hong Kong was like. All the information I received said that it was a truly prosperous and open place, and that not many people cared if some people remained unmarried for their entire lives.

Why is Captain Ji’s family so strange?

Because she was lost in thought, Qiu Jiang didn't notice that the person in front had stopped and bumped into him. Fortunately, he supported her and prevented her from losing her balance.

My nose just feels sore.

She rubbed her nose and tears welled up in her eyes.

"You're being distracted a little too much. Are you wondering why my family is so special?" Ji Mingcheng took out a handkerchief from the cabinet next to him and handed it to her, saying something that made her not know how to respond.

She took the handkerchief and used it to hide half of her face while wiping her tears, so that he wouldn't see her stunned expression.

"It seems that I guessed right." Ji Mingcheng put one hand in his pocket, very confident.

Qiu Jiang touched her nose guiltily, and seeing that he didn't seem to care, she carefully asked him the reason.

He didn't seem to want to hide it from her, and said casually, "Because my mother is afraid that she won't be able to see the next generation before she dies."

ah? ? ?

Qiu Jiang blinked, feeling that he was fooling her.

Since he is still so young and has a successful career, there are many girls who like him. I believe that as long as he wants to have children, he can have them sooner or later. How could his mother be afraid of not seeing the next generation?

It should be said that unless it is a terminal illness or an accident, this kind of thing will not happen, right?

She really didn't understand what his mother was worried about.

But...this shouldn't be something she can ask about.

Qiu Jiang shut up silently, pretending not to hear what he said.

I just can't help but feel that someone wants to say something.

"It's very simple. She gave birth to me when she was 45. I am her late-born son and her only child."

He made her understand with just one simple sentence.

Her mouth opened slightly, never expecting that his mother was already in her early seventies.

It is rare for a person to live to be seventy years old. In ancient times, only a few people with long lifespans could live to this age.

Even with the rapid development of modern medical technology, seventy years old is considered old.

This makes it completely understandable why his mother was so anxious.

She was a little confused when she didn't know the actual situation, but now she really understands her mother's feelings.

This kind of thing really can't be rushed out just by urging it.

If their season team really doesn't have that idea for the time being, who can force him?

She coughed and said, "It's only natural for Auntie to do this, and I'm not forcing you to do anything else. If you don't like these jewelry, just find a place to put them."

It can not only satisfy his mother's sincere feelings, but also make him feel less annoyed by it.

It's like killing two birds with one stone.

Ji Mingcheng nodded, and he would probably accept her suggestion.

Qiu Jiang breathed a sigh of relief and said cheerfully, "Then we'll see you tomorrow."

After saying that, she walked downstairs quickly, and after petting the big cat for a while, she went home holding the two children in her hands.

At this time, Qiu Hengan and his wife had already returned home before them, and they left a lot of bags on the ground.

"Why are there so many elm seeds?" Qiu Jiang was surprised.

Shi Yuexiu's face was filled with joy. "Your sister Xie brought some today. She said they were freshly picked in the countryside. She wanted to make some elm seed steamed bread or something like that. These are the freshest. If you want to try them, you can try them first to see if they are tender. I'll make the rest into steamed bread today and bring some for your colleagues to try tomorrow when they go to work."

"Yeah."

The two children couldn't wait to open the bag.

Qiu Jiang was able to remain calm and asked them how Xie Youlian was doing now.

After Niu Yong was shot, she and her daughter said they wanted to live in the city, but they were held up by some things and had little contact in the past few months. She really missed them.

"Both mother and daughter are doing well. They've rented a house and are busy arranging Ranran's transfer to another school. Once she's settled, your brother and I will invite her to work in our new store so she can truly settle down in the city."

Qiu Jiang was overjoyed, "This is really good news."

"Who says not? And today I saw that her injuries are almost healed, and Ranran has grown a bit. It seems that she is finally as tall as our Miaomiao and Enen. I heard Youlian say that Ranran has only grown taller recently. Maybe in a while she will be taller than them. That's great."

Shi Yuexiu smiled and sighed.

"Wow, then I should eat more and grow taller."

"I want one too."

Children just like to follow the crowd. After hearing with their own ears that their once little sister Ranran is now almost as tall as them, they are very motivated to grow taller and are determined to try their best to be a little taller than her when they meet next time.

That way they could protect her.

The two children were eating elm seeds and mumbling something to each other.

Occasionally, you can still hear the name "Ranran".

The way Qiu Jiang and the others expressed their joy and congratulations to Xie Youlian and her daughter was to make a table of delicious steamed buns by making good use of the elm seeds she sent.

The three adults in the family worked hard all night and finally harvested a lot of elm seed steamed buns before they almost collapsed from exhaustion.

Soft and fragrant.

Very appetizing.

She couldn't help but pass some to Ji Mingcheng. Ji Mingcheng had no interest in it at first, but the taste was too sweet. He hesitated for a moment and finally picked one up. After taking a bite, he couldn't stop at all and ate four in a row before stopping.

Also got a comment.

"good."

Very good, that’s a recognition.

Well, I must bring more tomorrow, so that there won’t be enough to eat.
