Chapter 358 Chapter 359 Extra 4: Sister Ji comes to Ji's house
Ji Heng was silent for a moment, "Has the Municipal Building changed a lot?"
This is Wang Xu's blind spot, scratching his head and looking at Pei Qin.
Pei Qin's family is in politics, and basically the whole family works here. Since elementary school, he has often been taken in and out by his family. "Basically, there is no change. Do you want to go in?"
Xicheng is an ancient city with many ruins preserved.
The Municipal Building is also a ruin left over from the Republic of China, so it has not been rebuilt or renovated. It will be repaired and maintained regularly every year.
Ji Heng turned his eyes to the sycamore tree next to him and lowered his eyes, "Sorry to bother you."
"No trouble." Hearing that Ji Heng was going in, Pei Qin took them to the door while taking out his mobile phone to make a call.
He whispered a few words to the person on the other end of the phone.
He asked for a few passes.
The middle-aged man in the jacket saw that Pei Qin and his friends had not left, so he waited for them at the door of the building.
"Ah Xu, who are these two?" The middle-aged man was surprised to see Wang Xu following behind Ji Heng.
"Uncle Chang," Wang Xu introduced Ji Heng to him, "this is my grandfather who is also a schoolmate of Jiang University. He has come to Xicheng for a few days to travel and wants to visit the Municipal Building."
It can be seen that Wang Xuning, Xiao and Pei Qin have the same attitude towards this old man.
Uncle Chang stretched out his hand, "Hello, welcome to Xicheng."
"Hello."
The two shook hands.
Pei Qin was standing a few steps away making a phone call, then he looked up at Ji Heng, "Grandpa, are the uncles beside you going too?"
Uncle Meng looked up subconsciously when he saw Pei Qin's eyes fall on him.
But his eyes were a little dull as he looked at Pei Qin and the middle-aged man in front of him.
He had heard the introductions of Pei Qin and Wang Xu just now. Master Pei of the Pei family in Xicheng is very famous, even Uncle Meng has heard of him.
Of course, let's not talk about whether this Pei Qin is the Master Pei.
Look at the man in the executive jacket, the one who often appears in the news.
How could Uncle Meng not know him?
The two who can call this "Uncle Chang" are surnamed Wang and Pei, so is there any need to guess which family these two masters are from?
He reacted so slowly that when Pei Qin looked at him, he didn't have time to answer.
"Together." Ji Heng said.
Pei Qin nodded, spoke a few words to the person on the other end of the phone, and hung up.
In less than ten minutes, a staff member came out and took out two temporary passes and handed them to Ji Heng and Uncle Meng.
Uncle Meng lowered his head and looked at the card in his hand.
In the middle is a picture of the entire Municipal Building. In the upper left corner is the emblem of West City and the name of the Municipal Building. On the right is a printed signature -
Pei Yuanfu.
The Municipal Building is majestic.
In front of the conference hall are several rows of black wooden chairs, covered with red and gold carpets, luxurious and solemn.
Further inside, you can still see the old utensils.
Ji Heng stood at the end of the third floor, looking at a locked wooden door at the back.
There was no sign hanging here.
Seeing Ji Heng standing here without leaving, Pei Qin turned around and looked at the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man took a step forward and introduced to Ji Heng, "Mr. Ji, this used to be the office for special intelligence collection. There is no such department in the West City until now. You can go in for a visit."
As he said, he asked someone to find the key.
Not long after, someone took the key to open the door.
All you can see are old items from the past, most of which are covered with dustproof cloth with a layer of dust on them.
No one has been in for a long time, and the dust is heavy. The sunlight shines through the window, and the shape of the light can be clearly seen.
The light finally landed on the PET computer in the corner.
The computer, which was made over forty years ago, had the mainframe keyboard and display screen placed on the same body, which was rare, like a small sofa.
This was the first time that Wang Xu and others had seen such an antique-level computer, so they were inevitably curious.
Ji Heng walked to the corner, stretched out his hand and slowly wiped the dust off the computer screen.
Not long after, Ji Heng thanked Pei Qin and the others and left.
Pei Qin and Ning Xiao saw him off.
As soon as they got downstairs, Ji Heng asked them to do their own things, and then took Uncle Meng to the parking lot.
Arriving at the parking spot, Uncle Meng took the car key but forgot to unlock it.
As the cold wind blew, he responded, "Grandpa, those two..."
Ji Heng did not urge him to open the car door. He lowered his head, held the fireworks in one hand, lit it, and slowly emitted a smoke ring: "A-Xi's friend."
A-Xi.
Uncle Meng knew that this was Ji Heng's granddaughter.
**
Research base.
Bai-Xi and Tang Ming were making models. When they came out after they were done, Ning Xiao had not returned yet.
Jiang Fuli was waiting outside with a wooden box in his hand.
Seeing Bai-Xi coming back, he put down the wooden box and tilted his head slightly, "Butler Jiang just sent it over. Take a look."
Bai-Xi walked over here while taking off his white research suit.
Reaching out, he casually opened the lid of the wooden box.
He saw the embroidery inside at a glance.
Xuemei.
Compared to the last time, the quality of the snow plum embroidery this time is obviously much better.
Especially...
Bai Shi reached out to touch the embroidery, tilted his head and looked at Jiang Fuli, "Do you think the stitches of this snow plum are familiar?"
Jiang Fuli: "..."
Don't they all look the same?
Bai Shi: "..."
Forgot that he has no artistic talent at all.
After a moment of silence, he took out his mobile phone and took a photo for Ji Heng.
The stitches are a bit like Ji Heng's, but more skillful than Ji Heng's.
Ji Heng's message came back soon -
[Masterpiece]
Bai Ti: [I think so too]
After talking about this snow plum painting, Ji Heng mentioned Pei Qin and Wang Xu again. He took him to visit the government building in the afternoon and asked him to take pictures.
Jiang Fuli stood on the left of Bai Ti, watching her conversation with Ji Heng.
Finally, he lowered his head to look at the snow plum again.
After a long while of depression, he sent a message to housekeeper Jiang.
Confirmed this snow plum painting.
**
Ji's house.
When Ji Heng came back, Ji Lang was talking in the hall with Miss An. They were
having a good time.
It can be seen that something happy happened.
"Grandma, you're going to have to spend money on this brocade phoenix robe..." Ji Lang lowered his eyes, picked up the teacup and took a sip, swallowing the rest of the words.
Ji Heng came back to say hello to Grandma. The matter in West City has been almost settled.
He plans to go back to Xiangcheng.
Ji Wanxin used to have the best relationship with her, the eldest sister-in-law.
Ji Heng also respected her very much.
"You won't stay a few more days?" Grandma was surprised, "I was just telling Alang to let them contact the junior high school..."
Junior high school?
Ji Heng thought of Xiao Qi.
Even if we leave the Ji family aside, the relationship between Bai Zhu and Xiao Qi is incomparable to others. If he wants to go to school, many schools will compete to get him in... After all, everyone who comes out of Bai Zhu is not simple.
He knows that Xiao Qi just doesn't want to waste time in school anymore.
"Grandma, if he doesn't want to study, just let him be like this," Ji Heng shook his head, "When he wants to study, then we'll talk about it."
Listening to Ji Heng's words, the grandmother looked incredible.
Ji Heng looked so serious, it was really hard to tell that he actually doted on his grandson so much. If the other party said he didn't want to go to school, he really wouldn't urge him?
After talking to the grandmother, Ji Heng left.
He saw that Ji Lang deliberately avoided him, so he didn't ask any more questions and left directly.
Beside him, Uncle Meng looked at Ji Heng's back, then at Ji Lang with an indifferent expression, opened his mouth, but said nothing in the end.
Only after Ji Lang left.
He whispered to Grandma what happened today.
"Pei family? Wang family?" Grandma was shocked.
Thinking back, she still didn't know the names of Ji Heng's granddaughter and grandson.
She only knew that one was called "A-Xi" and the other was called "Xiao Qi".
"His granddaughter... like Wanxin, was also admitted to Jiangda?" Grandma thought afterwards.
They both said they were classmates of Bai Xi, so they could only be college classmates.
The two young masters of the Pei and Wang families are both students of Jiangda.
"Probably." Uncle Meng narrowed his eyes.
Thinking in his heart, it might be far more than that.
The attitude of Mr. Pei and the young master of the Wang family towards Ji Heng can be described as respectful.
.
** One day later
, Ji Heng was leaving Xicheng and returning to Xiangcheng.
However, the work of Bai Di's base was not finished yet, and he had to take Pei Qin and Wang Xu with him. Bai Di handed Pei Qin and Wang Xu to Jiang Fuli and asked him to take care of them for a while. Xiao Qi just came to Xicheng today. Bai Di went to find Xiao Qi and took Ji Heng to the airport. She called Ji Heng and said she would pick him up. Ji Heng didn't have much to pack, just a black handbag, which contained several old items that Ji Wanxin liked when she was alive. Uncle Meng and Grandma came to see Ji Heng off. Ji Heng put an oil paper package in, turned his head and said to Uncle Meng, "No need to send me off, A-Xi will come to pick me up on my way." Grandma and Uncle Meng have been very sensitive to the name "A-Xi" these two days. Hearing Ji Heng's words, Grandma stood up: "Wanxin's granddaughter? Is she coming? Has she arrived? Let her come to the house to see." Last time, when she and Uncle Meng guessed that Bai-Xi was a student of Jiangda, Grandma couldn't calm down. When she married into the Ji family, Ji Wanxin was only in junior high school, and the two had a very good relationship. Especially last time I heard that she and Ji Wanxin were admitted to the same university, I wanted to see the "A-Xi" mentioned by Ji Heng even more. I also hinted a few times, but Ji Heng didn't respond to Grandma. "It's almost there," Ji Heng opened the drawer again and took out another wooden windmill. He groaned for a moment, "She may not come in." This was what Ji Wanxin played with when she was a child. Grandma no longer cared about him and was going out to wait for Bai Xi. Uncle Meng hurriedly supported her, "Grandma, don't go out to get some fresh air. I'll go out and wait for Miss A Xi." "Okay," Grandma also realized that she was too anxious. She sat down again, but her eyes were still looking at the direction of the door, "You go quickly." ** The gate of Ji's house. Uncle Meng ran over breathlessly. He looked at the end of the road, and within ten minutes, he saw a car slowly driving towards this side. It was a local license plate of Jiangjing. It stopped at the gate of Ji's house. Uncle Meng quickly stood up and saw the co-driver's car door open and a plainclothes officer walked out. He recognized one of them as someone he had seen in the teahouse a few days ago. Uncle Meng confirmed that this was the car of Ji Heng's granddaughter. At the same time, the person in the back seat opened the door and bent over to get out. He was wearing a white sweater and beige casual pants. He raised his head against the light, playing with his phone with his slender fingers, squinting at the direction of the main entrance. Uncle Meng had been in Xicheng for so many years, and he had seen people with outstanding looks.
Xicheng has always been famous for its beauties. Ji Wanxin was also the most beautiful girl in Xicheng.
The two young masters and several young ladies of the Ji family are all very outstanding in appearance, but none of them can be compared with the girl in front of him. Uncle
Meng was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses and walked forward, "Are you Miss A-Ti?"
"Yes, hello." Bai-Ti nodded slightly at him.
"Grandpa is still packing things. It's cold outside. I'll take you in to wait for him and have a cup of hot tea." Uncle Meng raised his hand and invited Bai-Ti in.
Bai-Ti looked at him, thought for a moment, and then walked up the stairs.
The plainclothes officer behind him was still a few meters away, following not too far or too close.
The Ji family is a Chinese-style courtyard, not very big.
As soon as she entered, she saw someone cleaning up the garbage. The green trash can was full of garbage.
Bai Shi was just looking around casually at first, but the next second she saw something on top of the trash can. She couldn't help but squint, stop, and pay attention again for a moment.
Uncle Meng saw Bai Shi stop, with her hands behind her back, tilting her head, and lazily looking at the trash can on the left.
He also looked over there, and at a glance he saw the corner of a gift box sticking out of the trash can on the left. It looked very familiar
. He felt something was wrong.
Bai Shi raised her hand, not afraid of getting dirty, and just reached out and pulled out the whole gift box.
It was a brand new, unopened gift box, she recognized it -
Xiao Qi carefully packed it for Chaye.
Bai Shi lowered her head with a dull expression, gently brushed off a piece of vegetable leaf on the gift box, and looked down at this exquisite gift box: "Where did you get it from?"
Good morning! !
