Chapter 355 The crying elder brother cried again
After the beginning of the year, elder brother Yi took Jiaru and Jiajun to the Wenwu Temple to ask for the top scholar's fortune, but everyone in Group B had not had time to go to the Wong Tai Sin Temple.
On the sunniest day after the beginning of spring, Fang Zhenyue took half a day off and took everyone to the Chisong Wong Tai Sin Temple. People carried incense, flowers and fruits through the yellow glazed tile archway and walked into the Taoist temple that was once called Sik Sik Yuen. Everyone went to ask for Wong Tai Sin's fortune and fruit to pray for a year of good luck.
Of course, the weasel Wong Tai Sin from the northeast of the mainland is not enshrined here, but the famous Taoist god Huang Chuping during the Eastern Jin Dynasty. In addition, there are Confucian and Buddhist gods such as Confucius and Guanyin. The integration of the three religions is the characteristic of this most famous temple in Hong Kong.
After praying for luck and interpreting the fortune, the group went to the Man and Mo Temple to pray for success.
They rode in Fang Zhenyue and Yi Jiayi's car from Kowloon to Sheung Wan to see Wenchang Emperor and Guan Yu, the Wu Emperor who blesses everyone every day.
According to legend, in 1981, two businessmen had a dispute. Neither side had enough evidence, and the matter was unresolved. So they went to the Man and Mo Temple to chop off a chicken's head according to the old custom. Before the legal system in Hong Kong was sound, the oath method of chopping off a chicken's head and burning yellow paper was always recognized by the law.
No one could lie to the two emperors, and the plaintiff among the businessmen did not dare to kneel down and swear. The master and the lawyer took the two businessmen back to the court, and the judge found the plaintiff guilty.
Once, this was also a holy place for justice.
Everyone prayed to Emperor Wu together. The dialogue between righteousness and righteousness is a must-go process every year.
Leaving the Wenwu Temple, it was not far from Fang Zhenyue's villa, so everyone went to Brother Yue's house to continue the BBQ.
On the way, Fang Zhenyue called Uncle Jiu and invited him to come over.
The big jeep arrived at the middle of the mountain first, and Jiayi drove the Happy Prince to take Liang Shule and George to buy some food and plants.
After arriving, pots of flowers and plants were moved into Brother Yue's yard. Under Jiayi's command, Liang Shule and George placed the plants in the Feng Shui position, adding a lot of vitality to this house that was only used for sleeping.
Fang Zhenyue brought a small pot of cactus placed at the door into the study and placed it on the window, hoping that it would bloom in his house.
After arranging the flowers and trees, Fang Zhenyue returned to the yard in flip-flops and worked with everyone.
Although it looked nothing on the surface, he was singing in his heart.
Uncle Jiu passed by him with a few cans of beer and suddenly looked around.
"What's wrong?" Fang Zhenyue raised his eyebrows.
"Why do I feel like someone is singing?" Uncle Jiu raised his eyebrows.
"..." Fang Zhenyue: You've become a spirit, Lin Wangjiu!
While eating skewers, Jiayi leaned against the table where the drinks were placed, holding a handful of lamb skewers with white onions pierced through her left hand, eating while chatting with others.
Fang Zhenyue stood in front of the oven, turned over the ham sausage in his hand, cut out the octopus tentacles of the sausage and fried the tentacles, the skin was roasted until it was charred and bubbling.
Apply a layer of oil, accompanied by the sizzling sound and the charred aroma of oil dripping on the burning charcoal, sprinkle a layer of cumin, chili, sesame and other seasonings, turn it over, and sprinkle another layer.
After sniffing the smell, Fang Zhenyue was very satisfied, picked up two skewers and stuffed them into Jiayi's hand.
In this way, Jiayi's speed of eating skewers was not as fast as Yue Ge's speed of grilling, and soon she had eaten a lot.
Seeing that she had almost finished eating, Fang Zhenyue handed over the [right to barbecue] to George, and leaned against the wine table with Jiayi, each holding a bottle of Blue Sister beer, clinking glasses, and taking a big gulp at the same time.
"Eleventh Sister is getting more and more sharp." Liu Jiaming walked to the side of George who was grilling meat, and looked at Yi Jiayi who was drinking from the bottle with Brother Yue, and couldn't help but sigh.
George raised his head and saw Yi Jiayi inserting her fingers into her long hair, pulling it back, and all her hair was obediently behind her head. But as soon as she took her hand back, her rebellious hair spread out again, and when the wind blew, it flew unrestrainedly - so handsome that it made her legs weak.
"I've only seen Eleventh Sister like this." George sighed. Not only did he not have as many notes as Brother Jiaming and the others, he had never witnessed the growth of Eleventh Sister.
A fallen leaf fluttered and landed on Yi Jiayi's shoulder.
Fang Zhenyue picked it up, twisted it by the stem, and asked, "Do you have any plans for a vacation recently?"
"What's wrong?" Jiayi turned her head and found that Fang Zhenyue was very close to her, and his beautiful jawline was very close.
Turning around, she saw that everyone was chatting or eating, and didn't seem to pay attention to this place, so she stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the jaw, and there was a "smack" sound.
She thought she was stealing a kiss, but when she turned around, everyone who was doing their own things stopped what they were doing and looked towards them.
"..." Jiayi.
Very embarrassed. If
these losers don't want to be detectives anymore, they can become paparazzi.
Fang Zhenyue touched the place on his chin where he was kissed, and raised his eyebrows complacently at Uncle Jiu, and then continued the previous topic:
"If you are ready to take a vacation, you can go to Wan Wan, and someone will pay for your travel expenses."
"How can such a good thing come from?" Jiayi took a sip of beer, her stomach was hot, and her body was floating.
"The eldest son of Wan Wan tycoon Zhao Yacheng died a while ago. The Wan Wan investigation said it was an accident, but Mr. Zhao didn't believe it, so he hoped someone could take a look and help him confirm whether it was really an accident."
"Are the Hong Kong police and the Wan Wan police cooperating in handling the case?" Jiayi threw the empty bottle into the box next to her and picked up another bottle of red wine.
"No, it's a personal commission from Mr. Zhao." Fang Zhenyue rubbed his fingers, "The reward is very, very generous."
"How much in cash?" Jiayi immediately perked up.
"Two million Hong Kong dollars."
"Wow..." If she made this much money, wouldn't she really be able to achieve her life goal [buy a villa]? "Are the death scene and the corpse still there?"
"All of them." Fang Zhenyue nodded, "Mr. Zhao insisted on preserving all of these. In fact, you don't need to investigate from the beginning, just go over and help, make a conclusion, and give Mr. Zhao an opinion on whether it is homicide or an accident. The police in the Bay will cooperate with you to carry out the enforcement work."
Jiayi was a little worried again, "Is this appropriate?"
And she ran over alone...
"You are a policeman in Hong Kong, and you are traveling when you are abroad. If you have any situation, just tell Mr. Zhao and he will arrange everything for you." Fang Zhenyue rubbed her long hair. "It is definitely not possible to go alone, but you can bring your family, and food and accommodation are provided. Ask Brother Jiadong and others to accompany you."
"Brother Yue, why don't you go?" Jiayi asked puzzled.
"I'm not as famous as you. Mr. Zhao needs the most sharp detective in Hong Kong."
...
...
Because his younger siblings need to study, the whole family of Yi Kee discussed and decided that Ah Xiang and Clara would look after the store, Sun Xin would come over when he was not busy, Man Niu would come over every day to study and help out, and by the way, everyone would take care of the three little ones Jia Ru, Jia Jun and Bao Shu. Yi Jiadong,
as the representative of the big family, accompanied Jia Yi to Wan Wan to meet Mr. Zhao, the plastic king of Wan Wan.
Yi Jiadong, who had taken care of his younger siblings alone for ten years, was about to leave Yi Kee for the first time and was even at a loss when he handed his apron to Clara.
"Brother Yi, just go and relax. I have been your assistant for more than a year. What else do you worry about?" Clara took all the work and immediately described all the work processes and precautions that Yi Ji had in mind. She was competent and reliable.
Yi Jiadong then raised his eyebrows and smiled.
Jiaru put on her bag, took her brother's arm, and said happily: "Let's go, brother! My car has arrived at the door, let's go--"
The four siblings went out together to go shopping. If they were going out, they had to go to the rich man's house, so they had to pack up well.
Due to work reasons, Yi Jiadong did not have a suit. He wore comfortable casual clothes or sportswear all day long, and he was too unkempt.
He is used to being frugal, so he has some comfortable T-shirts in his closet, and he still wears them even after putting on two layers of patches on the worn-out elbow cuffs. Suddenly, he walks into a mid- to high-end store to buy clothes and leather shoes that he would never have been willing to buy in the past, and his face twitches.
A few shirts of different colors, a few casual or formal trousers of different styles, and a pair of formal and comfortable leather shoes.
Jiayi even helped him pick out 5 pairs of underwear and 10 pairs of socks to match the leather shoes and trousers...
After renovating everything from the inside out, Jia Rujiajun's hands were soon filled with large and small bags - today is the "filial piety day" for his younger brothers and sisters to serve their older brother.
Although Yi Jiadong turned around from time to time to ask the two little ones if they were tired or if they needed help, he still could not take even a shopping bag from the two little ones.
"Today is the day we take care of Big Brother, you don't need to do anything." Jiajun announced solemnly.
Yi Jiadong smiled and shook his head, and was pulled into the hair salon by Yi Jiayi, who gave him a short haircut that was the most fashionable at the time.
After leaving the house, Jiayi remembered that she had not bought a tie yet, so she went back and picked out 5 ties of different colors and styles to match the rest of her outfit.
When the sales lady helped Yi Jiadong tie his tie, she kept looking at his face and scanning his expensive suit. She couldn't stop praising him:
"Mr. is really more handsome than Qiu Guan!"
When the sales lady helped him pat the shoulder fabric of the suit, she still praised his sharp figure and said that he was a rare handsome man. Yi Jiadong blushed when she was patted.
His brothers and sisters laughed from time to time, and he became more and more embarrassed.
After buying clothes for his eldest brother, Jiayi also bought some new clothes for his younger brothers and sisters and herself. Then the four brothers and sisters went to have a big meal.
The family that we didn't know at all back then, now sits in a high-end restaurant and can order and eat comfortably, no longer embarrassed by whether to use the knife or the fork with the left hand.
Only some old habits are still retained, the four of them still choose four different drinks, and drink them alternately, so they can taste four new drinks during a meal - so proud.
The restaurant provides an after-meal ice cream buffet, Jiaru and Jiajun both ran to choose their favorite flavors.
Jiayi sat next to her eldest brother, gently held his wrist, and said with a smile:
"Brother, you delayed a lot of things in the past because of the three of us. Now that I have grown up, I can help you share the burden. You should also think about your own affairs, play more, and enjoy your life happily."
Jiajun and Jiaru each chose a bowl of ice cream balls. When they returned to the table, they saw their eldest brother secretly wiping his eyes with tissues.
It seems... my eldest brother is crying again.
