Chapter 161 Zhang Saner's stall was overturned

"What's wrong, brother?"

When Ji Changyu returned from the base, he saw Xu Gang, who looked drunk, with a flushed face and very excited.

Xu Yao: "...Maybe he was scared."

So scared?

Ji Changyu was silent.

At this time, Xu Gang rushed forward, held Ji Changyu's hand tightly, and shook it hard.

"Don't call me brother, you are my brother!"

“Brother!”

Ji Changyu, "…………"

I wanted to pull my hands free and moved, but I couldn't break free from my brother-in-law's claws.

He glanced to the side and looked at Xu Yao with a puzzled look.

"Has he drunk too much? He doesn't smell like alcohol."

I didn't drink, but I felt more drunk than alcohol.

It is understandable that a person who grew up in the countryside in an era of isolated information had never seen the outside world.

Suddenly I tell you that there is an important person around you, who wouldn’t be excited?

Xu Yao had no choice but to remind him helplessly.

"Brother, calm down. Things haven't been settled yet. Don't let outsiders see any clues, lest a good thing turn into a bad thing."

"You're right." Xu Gang realized the meaning of her words and quickly calmed down.

I can't let him down when it comes to my brother-in-law.

Otherwise, there is no need for others to blame him, he can kill himself by being angry.

His handsome and flying eyebrows suddenly calmed down, and only a faint smile on the corner of his mouth revealed his uneasy heart.

Xu Yao smiled and said, "You know what's going on. We are not fish that can be slaughtered at will. Don't tell anyone."

"Don't worry, I won't even talk in my sleep at night."

"What are you two siblings talking about? It's so mysterious." Ji Changyu took off his military uniform and hung it aside.

As I asked this, I vaguely guessed something from their conversation.

Xu Yao told Xu Lanxiang that she was suspected of hooking up with a certain big shot and going to the capital.

Ji Changyu smiled indifferently, "The army is not his backyard. He can remove any weeds he wants. We are not weeds, so you can rest assured."

Xu Gang was shocked.

Well, I've been worrying in vain. I have to tell Liu Mei the news so that she won't be unable to sleep at night again.

"Are you leaving now? Have dinner at home."

Xu Gang glanced at the sky outside.

In December, it gets dark early and the buses close early.

He shook his head. "It's too late. I have to go to night school. I'll go home and eat after class."

Hearing the sound, Ji's mother hurried over and stuffed two large pieces of cake into his hands without saying a word.

"How can you not eat dinner on time? You can eat it on the way, at least it will fill your stomach."

After seeing off his brother-in-law, Ji Changyu returned to the house and saw Xu Yao wrapped in a large flowered jacket, huddled in a chair sorting out test papers. He felt sad at first.

Hug her from behind.

He rested his chin on the crook of her neck and rubbed it.

Since he shaved every day without fail, Xu Yao's pampered skin did not feel any pain, just a little itchy.

She smiled and pushed out.

"What are you doing? I'm doing something serious. Stop acting like a spoiled brat. We're going out to eat soon. Mom will call us later. If she sees you like this, your image will be ruined."

"I have no image in front of her at all, so I'll just hug her for a while."

Ji Changyu hugged his sweet and soft wife and didn't want to let go at all.

Especially now that she was wearing that particularly festive big flowered jacket made by his mother, it made him want to laugh just looking at her.

Actually, she is not ugly. The jacket is red and the tip of her nose is also red, which makes her look particularly soft.

Ji Changyu didn’t know how to describe it, he just felt like he wanted to hold her in his heart.

She doesn't wear it when she goes out, she only wears it at home.

"Do you want me to go into politics?"

This was the first time they had formally discussed the issue.

Since he asked, Xu Yao thought about it and answered seriously.

"I am a bit vain and I hope to become the first lady, but that is impossible.

I am not dissatisfied with my current life. If you go into politics, you will definitely be very busy. It is hard to say whether we can stay in the same place in the future.

Each has its own advantages and disadvantages. It depends on what you think. Besides, you don’t listen to my advice. ”

If he went into politics, he would probably be transferred frequently.

By then, it will be difficult for the two to see each other.

Ji Changyu coughed guiltily, "Nonsense! Whoever says that I don't want to listen, I will seriously consider it and adopt it reasonably."

Xu Yao snorted.

If he wanted to change his career, he would have reported it long ago. Why would he wait until now?

The reason why she told Xu Gang those words was that she hoped he and Liu Mei would be at peace.

Ji's mother called out from outside, and Ji Changyu took Xu Yao's hand.

"Let's go, let's eat!"

－－

In mid-December, there was a heavy snowfall in Jiangcheng.

That day, Xu Yao went to work as usual, and Shen Kai sent a message saying that someone was looking for her outside.

Xu Yao thought it was Fang Yinzhang, but when she went out to take a look, she found out it was Qian Shengyang and Xu Gang.

Xu Gang was fine. He was wearing work clothes and there was a hint of anxiety on his face that was visible to the naked eye.

Qian Shengyang was in a state of disgrace. A layer of frost formed on his eyebrows, his cotton coat was soaked by the snow, and his shoes were cracked from being stepped on.

He was wearing thin clothes and had been walking for an unknown amount of time, so his walking posture was stiff.

"We'll talk later. You guys sit down and take it easy first." Xu Yao's heart skipped a beat when she saw them like that.

Afraid that they might get hurt by the cold, I took them to the reception room, poured them a cup of warm tea, and then asked them what happened.

"It's Zhang Saner." Xu Gang took a sip of hot tea, looked at Qian Shengyang with concern, and continued.

"The brothers were reported by someone and were all arrested. They also found out that two other families were also arrested. Yangzi was afraid that they would betray us as well."

At this time, Qian Shengyang, who had calmed down after drinking a cup of hot tea, said with trembling teeth.

"They will definitely remember us later. They saw me and Brother Gangzi selling goods."

As he spoke, he stood up and knelt down in front of Xu Yao, who was startled and quickly stopped him.

Qian Shengyang shuddered. "If you ask me, I will take the responsibility alone. Xiaoxue is still young, and my family is in such a situation. I just hope you can take care of her for me."

Xu Yao and Xu Gang looked at each other and patted his shoulder.

Xu Yao said.

"We have expected this, so why panic? Don't worry, we should catch the thief dirty.

We haven't touched it for almost half a year. What can we find out if we really check?

When someone from above asked you about this, you insisted that we didn't have enough to eat, so you collected a few from the villagers. ”

Xu Gang was much calmer than Qian Shengyang and thought rationally.

"The more panicked you are, the more suspicious you will be. It's like running away as if you heard the wind. Let's calm down.

I'll go to the department store later and buy a cotton jacket for Xiaoxue. When others asked about it, she would say that Xu Yao, as her elder sister, bought her younger sister a new set of clothes in the city. ”

Everyone knows that Ji Changyu is the head of the group, so before touching his people, they have to consider whether they can afford to offend him.

This is also one of the reasons why he is not panicking.

"Is that okay? If it involves you, then change the way you put it."

He looked at Xu Yao.

The latter hesitated for a while and said, "I think it's okay. It's been so long since the incident happened, I don't think they can catch you."

To be on the safe side, she did not agree immediately and decided to go to the base to ask Ji Changyu first.
