Chapter 121 Chapter 121 Be good, don’t let your imagination run wild…
The grass is growing and the birds are singing. After a sudden drop in temperature in the past few days, the weather has warmed up rapidly in the past few days, gradually ushering in the arrival of spring.
People took off their heavy coats and began to enjoy the lightness of spring clothing.
Now, Qiu Jiang is no longer afraid of the cold when riding a bike to work.
She rides her cute little pink bike to and from get off work every day.
However, compared to the busy period around the New Year, this period is obviously much more relaxed.
Especially the Seven Deadly Sins copycat case they were involved in some time ago. Now that the murderer has been arrested, the case has been officially handed over to the second team for interrogation and no longer needs to be piled up in their hands.
The results of the investigation at the police academy were also out. It was the warehouse manager of the equipment room who took money and replaced the gun that was to be scrapped with Sang Le.
He was about to leave with a gun in hand, but he suddenly ran into Qiu Jiang. He then remembered that she had been in the news a few days ago, which directly brought back the "new and old grudges" from two years ago, so he wanted to trick her out and teach her a lesson.
As for her cell phone number, he refused to say where he got it.
Anyway, both parties confessed the same thing about other things, so Qiu Jiang didn't bother to pay attention to what he didn't say, but instead focused on preparing for the relevant matters in the provincial capital.
During these few days, she filed the team's documents, handed them over to the archives room, and handed them over to other colleagues. Finally, the time came for her family to go to the provincial capital.
Except for Qiu Hengan and his wife, Qiu Jiang and the others had hardly ever been to the provincial capital and had no impression of it. They only knew that the provincial capital was more prosperous than Anxi.
But they actually had no idea how prosperous it was. However, as the roads became wider, the buildings and traffic became more and more dense, and there were more flowers, green plants and other decorations in the middle of the road, they finally realized the difference between the provincial capital and Anxi.
Qiu Jiang and her two little nephews and nieces frequently exclaimed "wow".
"So beautiful, so beautiful."
"That's right."
They watched intently, and although Qiu Siyu and the other two were also sighing, the brother and sister were both introverted and only sighed in their hearts, not as emotionally expressive as Qiu Jiang and the other three.
But he clearly agreed with Qiu Jiang and the others. He tried hard to suppress his excitement and said calmly, "This provincial capital is indeed more prosperous than our Anxi."
"Yeah, and it seems like people there are more open-minded than we are."
In just a short while, they had already seen several fashionably dressed trendsetters.
Compared with Anxi, which has a more conservative atmosphere, the provincial capital really gave them a completely different feeling.
Qiu Jiang rested her head on her little niece's head and nodded repeatedly.
"That's right."
Speaking of this, she became even more curious about Hong Kong. "I heard that Hong Kong is the most prosperous area in the country. The provincial capital is already good enough. I can't imagine what it's like there. Why would everyone think so?"
Qiu Hengan was used to traveling all over the country in his early years, and he had actually been to Hong Kong once. Even though it was many years ago, he still couldn't help but sigh when he thought of that place.
"It's indeed countless times more prosperous than the provincial capital. Even our Haicheng can't compare to it. The wages are extremely high, and of course the housing prices are also extremely expensive, which is jaw-dropping."
Shi Yuexiu also agreed and said with a smile, "Your brother learned how to make shrimp dumplings and other things there. If he hadn't been unable to stay there for long, your brother would have wanted to earn money there for a few years before coming back."
This was definitely information that was not in Qiu Jiang's memory, and she looked over with shining eyes.
"Brother, sister-in-law, please tell me in detail."
Qiu Sichen and the others also looked over, clearly very interested. Shi Yuexiu smiled and said, "Back then, you had just been born, and I was still pregnant with Ah Yu and Ah Chen. Your brother took me to Hong Kong to run a sales haul. We were only there for a week, but we earned over a thousand dollars, and we even got some tips. We left with nothing, but when we came back, we had a full twelve hundred dollars in our pockets. It was a huge sum of money for us back then."
"Thankfully, we had this money. When Ayu and Achen had a difficult delivery, we weren't so strapped for cash."
"Because they were so profitable there, we left them with our parents after we had them. We went to Hong Kong several times and earned a lot of money, which allowed us to buy the truck later."
Listening to her talk about what happened at that time, Qiu Hengan's thoughts couldn't help but go back to the past.
He was still young at that time and had a lot of fighting spirit. He traveled all over the country and saved a lot of money. Later, his parents added some money, and they bought another house in the community where his parents lived.
He was in high spirits every day, and he didn't know how many people envied their lives.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. A few years later, his mother became seriously ill and passed away soon. His father refused to eat or drink after his mother passed away. He lasted for seven days but finally gave up.
Before leaving, she just held his hand tightly, with only one wish in her lifeless and cloudy eyes.
"Dad is going to see your mom. Please help him take good care of Jiang Jiang."
In just seven days, he lost his mother and father one after another. Even now, when Qiu Hengan thinks of those seven days, he still can't help but feel a lump in his throat.
After taking care of their parents' funeral, the couple lived with their younger sister and two children.
When Jiang Jiang was a child, she was naughty, and Ayu and Achen always looked after her for him.
However, because he is often not at home, when others bully Achen and his brother and call them fatherless wild children, Jiang Jiang is always the first to rush out.
Even if the opponent is a big guy twice her size, she is not afraid and will teach him a lesson even if it means getting injured.
So I always go home injured.
Ayu and Achen were crying beside them.
Even though her body was covered with bruises, she didn't seem to care at all. She was angry and felt that she had hit too lightly. She sat at the desk thinking about how to improve her hitting skills next time, so that the naughty kids nearby were scared when they saw her.
It was because they were always protected by her when they were young, so even though little aunt Jiang Jiang was only a few months older than them, they really treated her as an elder.
It’s just that this little elder often needs their coaxing, otherwise she will fight with the other party until the end of the world and will never let go.
Having said this, Qiu Sichen and Qiu Siyu couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Qiu Jiang, on the other hand, had a look of pride on her face, and still didn't think she had done anything wrong.
"Auntie is so amazing."
Qiu Si'en and Qiu Simiao had starry eyes and rubbed Qiu Jiang against her, as if she was the most powerful hero in the world, even more powerful than her father.
Shi Yuexiu rubbed their heads and said, "Your aunt is really powerful, so you must learn from her and learn to protect her when you grow up."
"Okay, Enen, you must protect your aunt when you grow up."
"Miao Miao also wants it."
Qiu Jiang's eyebrows lit up with joy, "It's not in vain that I love you so much."
"hey-hey."
They were rubbing against each other and were so well behaved.
Two hours later, they finally arrived at the provincial affiliated hospital where they were about to be admitted.
Before going to the hospital, the group went to the place where they would be staying for the next half month.
Only after they got downstairs did they realize how close this place was to the hospital. It was just across the street, only a few hundred meters away.
This is much more convenient whether it is delivering meals or taking a rest.
Over the years, Shi Yuexiu has received kindness from many people, but few people have helped him unconditionally like Ji Mingcheng. He felt touched and guilty, and kept holding Qiu Jiang's hand and talking to her.
"Jiang Jiang, your leader is such a good person. We must thank him properly when we get back."
Qiu Jiang knew very well that Captain Ji had helped her a lot.
She nodded vigorously, smiling broadly.
"Of course. Let's go back and thank Team Ji."
"well."
The two sisters-in-law chatted for a while, and just as the family reported to the property management, a sister in a suit ran over hurriedly, "Mr. Ji has already explained it in advance, please come this way."
Seeing someone leading the way, they followed her with their luggage. After passing flower beds and sports fields, they finally arrived at the building they wanted to go to. Then they took the elevator to the 23rd floor.
When the door was opened, everyone was stunned, especially the two children, who exclaimed in surprise.
"Wow, it's so big."
“So beautiful.”
Qiu Jiang and the others performed only slightly better than the other two children.
The decoration style here is obviously different from that in the mainland. It is simple but not monotonous, and everything reveals sophistication and style.
Especially the camel-colored leather sofa in the living room, which looks very high-end and comfortable at first glance.
Qiu Jiang felt very comfortable sitting down. The fatigue of the day gradually disappeared and she closed her eyes happily.
"Sister-in-law, Ayu, come and sit down. It's very comfortable."
Except for Qiu Hengan, the whole family sat neatly on the sofa to relieve the fatigue of the long journey.
Looking at this luxurious house again, Qiu Jiang suddenly had a terrible guess.
She sat up in a flash, suddenly feeling a little nervous and uneasy. "I'll make a phone call first."
As she said that, she went into a room and closed the door.
Shi Yuexiu and the others didn't understand what was going on, but since they had just arrived and there was still a lot of things to do, they just took a short break and then started to get busy.
Qiu Jiang in the room was holding her cell phone, hesitating and thinking about what to ask.
She scratched her head, afraid that her guess was true.
If so, she owes Team Ji an even bigger favor.
Just when she was very distressed, the cell phone rang.
And it was an extremely familiar phone number.
She picked up the phone almost without pausing.
"Team Season."
"Yes, we're here already."
"The house is beautiful, thank you."
Ji Mingcheng asked a few more questions, and Qiu Jiang answered obediently.
He was probably very busy and the noise was very loud. After knowing that she was safe, he was about to hang up.
Qiu Jiang called him urgently.
"Team Season..."
Ji Mingcheng said "hmm" and asked, "What's wrong?"
Qiu Jiang hesitated for a moment before speaking, "When did you buy this house?"
"When I first came to the mainland, I stayed in the provincial capital for a few days. I don't like staying in hotels, so I bought a few houses. This one is closest to the annex you're going to. If you want to go somewhere else, you can go to any of the other houses. I'll text you the address tonight."
Qiu Jiang was relieved when she heard that it was not bought in the past few days.
If it was really Captain Ji who bought this house specifically to make it convenient for their family to come here, then she would feel so guilty that she would not know how to repay him.
Now the psychological burden is at least a little less.
She patted her chest, her relief evident.
After realizing this, she began to doubt her ears.
“How many sets?”
She repeated blankly.
Ji Mingcheng still gave a simple "Yeah."
"The provincial capital has a bright future, and even if you don't live there, it's a good investment."
He spoke in a normal tone.
Qiu Jiang couldn't help but slowly close her open mouth.
Well, Captain Ji is indeed a rich man, he is different from ordinary people like them.
But no matter what, I still have to thank you.
"Team Ji, thank you."
Ji Mingcheng chuckled, "I'll accept this thank you. You're unfamiliar with the provincial capital, so if you have any problems, contact me and I'll help you find a solution."
They had only known each other for a few months, and even though he was her leader, he had helped her so much.
Qiu Jiang was deeply moved.
Just when she was about to speak again, he stopped her urgently.
"Stop. If you want to say thank you again, forget it. My ears are almost callused. Instead of wasting time on thanking me, I'd rather go strolling around the provincial capital and treat it as a vacation."
"Team Season..."
Guo Kai's voice came from the other side, and Ji Mingcheng replied him and ended the topic.
"I have something to talk about later."
She hurriedly said, "Okay, okay."
She was just about to hang up the phone when she heard a sound coming from her hand, and she quickly put it close to her ear.
Then I heard Ji Mingcheng's low and soothing voice.
"Be good, don't let your imagination run wild. You don't owe anyone anything."
Qiu Jiang blinked.
How did he know that she...
Unfortunately, before she could ask further questions, the person on the other end kept urging her. Finally, after a burst of noise, the phone started beeping continuously, and it was obvious that the person on the other end had hung up.
Her face flushed red as she jumped onto the bed, the voice of "Be good" echoing in her mind.
This seemed to be the second time he called her "good".
Her brother and sister-in-law had clearly told her that she was a good person, but the feeling she had just now was completely different.
The more she thought about it, the redder her face became, until she felt her face was burning.
"What happened?"
She fanned herself desperately, trying to dispel the abnormal temperature on her face.
However, no matter how much I fanned myself, the temperature on my face did not drop but increased instead, and my heartbeat began to beat faster.
Strange, so strange.
When she came out, others also felt very strange.
Especially Shi Yuexiu was almost worried to death, "Jiang Jiang, do you have a cold?"
As he said this, he stroked her forehead.
It doesn't matter if you don't touch her, but once you do, she gets scared.
"Do you have a fever?"
Qiu Jiang's face turned redder. Seeing that she was about to take him to the hospital, he hurriedly grabbed her hand, coughed, and said, "Sister-in-law, it's just too hot in the room. I really don't have a fever. Look, I'm in good spirits."
As she spoke, she turned around several times to prove what she said.
The gait is light and lively.
He doesn't look sick at all.
Qiu Sichen also said, "The heater is on in the room, and I feel a little hot too."
"Right, right."
She ignored her own guilty conscience and agreed, pointing at her face and saying, "Sister-in-law, look, your face is red too."
Upon hearing this, Shi Yuexiu touched his face carefully and found that it was indeed a little hot.
It’s not surprising, it’s a building after all.
Before the accident, her family also lived in an apartment building, so she knew how warm the heating was.
Turning on the heater is no different from turning on the heat.
She quickly convinced herself and let Qiu Sichen take care of her two younger brothers and sisters at home, while she took Qiu Jiang and Qiu Siyu out to buy groceries and prepare to cook.
Hearing her say this, Qiu Jiang immediately put his arm around her, kissed her and went out to play.
No, go buy groceries.
