Chapter 159 I’ll go in and look for it together!
"You're wrong, you're wrong, Miss Jiang. Look here - there's a stitch missing here. Go back and fix it." Zhao Xiumei checked the wool and knitting needles in Jiang Tang's hand and quickly reminded her.
Every stitch in knitting a sweater is like military training. You can’t be impatient. You have to do it one stitch at a time in an orderly manner. Not even a single stitch can be missed.
Jiang Tang held the knitting needles in both hands, first pulled the knitted fabric back, found the place where the stitches were missed, and then mended them.
It sounded like a simple thing going back and forth, but Jiang Tang's movements were unusually clumsy and he looked at a loss.
Zhao Xiumei covered her mouth with her hands, giggling secretly, and said happily, "Little Jiang, look at your fingers, they are long and thin, and you can tell they are very flexible. I never thought there were things you couldn't do. I can't compare to you in other things, but when it comes to knitting sweaters, I am better than you."
God is fair. He gave Jiang Tang a smart brain, but he didn't give her nimble hands.
As Jiang Tang was working on it, not only did she not mend the missed stitch, but she accidentally missed several stitches in the area that she had already knitted.
"Ah..." Jiang Tang frowned slightly, his hands becoming even more confused due to his anxiety. He quickly handed the sweater to Zhao Xiumei, "Sister Zhao, please help me. It took me two hours to knit this little bit. I can't let it all be ruined."
Zhao Xiumei said cheerfully, "Don't panic, I'll make it up to you, they're all small matters."
At this moment, there was a sudden and rapid knock on the door, heavy and fierce.
Zhao Xiumei put down the sweater in her hand and raised her head in unison with Jiang Tang, complaining, "It must be my little girl. She must be in a hurry to reincarnate. She's knocking on the door so hard. I'll have a good talk with her later."
Zhao Xiumei pretended to get up and open the door.
Jiang Tang knew that the people knocking on the door were not the children, but a good show was about to begin.
She held Zhao Xiumei's shoulders and said, "Sister Zhao, please sit still. I'll go open the door."
Zhao Xiumei was pulled and could not stand up. She could only watch Jiang Tang open the door. She vaguely felt that Jiang Tang was a little strange at that moment, not like the usual Jiang Tang.
When Jiang Tang opened the door, he saw a huge crowd of people outside.
There was an inspection team in uniform, Lin Xiu'er and Ye Yunshu who were even more aggressive than the inspection team, and Song Yuanyang who was walking at the back and couldn't help but worry even though he knew what was happening.
The most nervous person among them was Huang Yiyi. Huang Yiyi looked at Jiang Tang with worried eyes, wishing she could walk to Jiang Tang and tell her what had happened. No matter whether it was too late or not, she had to make sure Jiang Tang was mentally prepared.
"Comrade, who are you?" Jiang Tang asked.
Captain Zhang replied, "Comrade Jiang, I'm the captain of the inspection team. My last name is Zhang, and I'm here to carry out my mission according to orders. Is this the house you and Captain Fu live in?"
Captain Zhang was quite polite to Jiang Tang. After all, Jiang Tang's current identity was Fu Sinian's lover, and there was no conclusive evidence to convict Jiang Tang, so he had to give Fu Sinian face.
Jiang Tang said, "Yes, this is my home."
Captain Zhang continued, "The research team has lost an important document. Since Comrade Jiang recently visited the research team, you have become a suspect. We are now searching your residence. Comrade Jiang, please cooperate."
Jiang Tang was mentally prepared and accepted it all calmly, but Zhao Xiumei couldn't accept it after hearing this.
Zhao Xiumei dropped the yarn in her hand and rushed out of the house excitedly. "What? What? What are you talking about? Did Xiao Jiang steal your things? And you even came to your house to investigate? Does Captain Fu know about this? Who ordered you here?"
Jiang Tang grabbed Zhao Xiumei's arm and said, "Sister-in-law Zhao, I know you're doing this for my own good, but Captain Zhang is also carrying out his mission. We shouldn't make things difficult for him. I'm innocent and I'm not afraid of your inspection. Captain Zhang, you can check every corner of the room. There are absolutely no documents. But please be gentle when you check, and don't damage anything."
Captain Zhang was very surprised. Looking at the spoiled Jiang Tang, he actually thought she was a reasonable person, and her attitude was much better than Lin Xiu'er's before.
"Comrade Jiang, please rest assured. We are an inspection team, not bandits. We are just following orders."
Captain Zhang nodded to Jiang Tang, then walked in with the others, and a thorough search began.
"Haha." A playful, mocking voice was heard, and Ye Yunshu sneered, "What a clear-minded person. Jiang Tang, I hope you can be so noble in the future!"
At this moment, Ye Yunshu could no longer help but reveal the proud look of a winner, as if he was certain that something would happen to Jiang Tang.
Lin Xiu'er said even more firmly, "Jiang Tang, it must be you! It must be you! You deliberately approached Senior Song just to steal the documents! As long as we find evidence today, Senior Song will see your true colors!"
Huang Yiyi walked past the two of them and came to Jiang Tang. Like Zhao Xiumei, she looked at Jiang Tang worriedly and asked.
"Jiang Tang, do you want me to go get Captain Fu? With Captain Fu here, you'll feel more at ease."
"No need to look for Fu Sinian." Jiang Tang comforted them, "I have nothing to fear from my own shadow. If I didn't do it, then I didn't do it. Don't worry about me."
Lin Xiu'er scoffed, "Huh, it's already this late, and you're still bragging. So what if your husband is the regiment commander? This is a confidential document, and not even Fu Sinian can protect you. Jiang Tang, you're dead today!"
Ten minutes later, the sounds of searching in the house gradually stopped, and Captain Zhang led the team out.
Lin Xiuer was the first to ask expectantly, "Captain Zhang, how's it going? Did they find it? The file is in her hands, right?"
Captain Zhang shook his head, "We didn't find the documents."
"impossible!"
"impossible!"
Two voices came out at the same time, one was Lin Xiuer and the other was Ye Yunshu.
Lin Xiu'er was filled with hatred and wished that Jiang Tang could be proven guilty; Ye Yunshu was annoyed. She had just put the documents in the house yesterday. Were these people from the inspection team just there to do nothing? They couldn't even do such a small thing?
Ye Yunshu said immediately, "You must not have checked carefully enough. For example, under the bed, in the cabinet, in every corner, did you search everywhere?"
As he spoke, Ye Yunshu pushed Lin Xiuer.
Lin Xiu'er was pushed forward and shouted, "You must not have looked carefully enough! There's no way it's not there! I'll look for it! I'm sure I'll find it!"
Lin Xiuer, who was originally rushing forward, rushed into the house naturally.
Seeing Lin Xiu'er go in, Ye Yunshu's eyes moved and he continued, "I'll go in and look together!"
