Tonight's operation was a success; at least his original goal was to install a bugging device.
Clearly, this objective has been achieved.
Another thing to note is the small box belonging to Director Liu.
Xu Xiangyang didn't immediately check what was inside because he knew he couldn't open the lock.
Unlike ordinary iron locks, that lock was an old object with a different mechanism inside, and it might not be able to be opened at all.
If it can't be opened the first time, it will alert Director Liu, who will then move the items.
If we were to steal the box directly, that would be even worse; Director Liu might clean out his office, causing even more trouble.
He put those things aside for now, placed the main unit of the bugging device in place, and then started recording.
The things were kept in the cabinet and locked. Wang Xiumin usually wouldn't rummage through his things, especially since they were locked.
After finishing all that, Xu Xiangyang went into his space to take a shower, then glanced at the back door of the cafeteria, which still couldn't be opened.
Forget about this for now, I'm going to go out and get some sleep.
The next morning, he went to the health center to pick up Grandma Wang and the other woman and take them home.
Xu Guangtian borrowed a neighbor's tricycle to bring Grandma Wang back, while Xu Xiangyang rode a bicycle with Wang Zhongshan.
After returning home, Grandma Wang felt that she was much better.
"Mother, come inside and rest." Wang Xiumin saw that the old lady had returned and quickly told her to go inside and rest.
Grandma Wang pulled her aside and said, "What rest? I'm so bored in that clinic. It's nice here in the courtyard. I'll sit outside for a while."
The weather was pretty good today, no wind, and sunny. There were just a lot of ladybugs.
Since it's already autumn, these things have been eagerly coming out to bother us for ages.
Xu Xiangyang found this kind of thing particularly annoying. When he brushed the ladybugs off his clothes, his hands would still smell of them, which was very unpleasant.
He glanced at the time; it was just eight o'clock, and there was still some time before nine.
"Mom, no one has eaten yet this early in the morning, let's eat first."
Wang Xiumin snapped out of her daze and immediately nodded before heading to the kitchen to get some food.
Grandma Wang can't be too tired right now, so she followed Wang Zhongshan into the house and sat in the living room to wait for dinner.
Xu Xiangyang watched as Xu Guangtian helped serve the food, so he didn't offer to help.
Actually, Wang Xiumin should rest during this period. Her due date is just over a month away, and this situation can't continue.
But every time he said that, Wang Xiumin would say that working regularly would make childbirth easier, otherwise it would be difficult.
Although what she said wasn't entirely unreasonable, Xu Xiangyang still couldn't help but worry when he saw the big belly.
Last night, Wang Xiumin stewed the old hen that Xu Xiangyang brought back, and also put a small ginseng in it to replenish qi and blood.
Grandma Wang ate chicken porridge, while the others drank soup.
Her body can't handle too much nourishment, but it can handle a little. Too much nourishment at her age can be harmful to her body and she won't be able to handle it.
It was almost nine o'clock after dinner, so Xu Xiangyang changed his clothes and went out.
Because I didn't know when I would be able to come back, I told them in advance that I wouldn't be coming back for dinner.
Anyway, there's a cafeteria in his space, so he can just grab something to eat when he's hungry.
When Xu Xiangyang arrived at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative, he saw Liu Feng and Cao Yajun standing together, chatting.
He walked over and greeted them, "Brother Feng, Brother Jun."
He was somewhat surprised because he didn't know Cao Yajun would also be there.
Cao Yajun didn't react much when he saw him, but he was stunned when he heard Liu Feng say that Xu Xiangyang would also be there.
Xu Xiangyang noticed his expression and couldn't help but wonder what he was going to do.
Liu Feng smiled meaningfully and said, "Let's go now."
The group left together, and then Liu Feng took them by car to a place far from the city.
After Xu Xiangyang got off the bus, he looked around. This place wasn't exactly the suburbs; it was still in the city, but there weren't many people around.
Not far away was an old two-story building, and you could vaguely hear people talking over there, and there seemed to be quite a few people.
Liu Feng gave a greeting and then walked ahead.
Cao Yajun whispered, "Don't make a fuss when you go, keep a low profile."
After saying that, he walked straight over.
Xu Xiangyang was puzzled, but he was still prepared to listen to him.
After all, he wasn't familiar with this place, and he didn't know who was inside.
Once you arrive at the gate, you can see the situation inside the courtyard at a glance.
There were many people standing inside, about a dozen, all young people in their twenties, both men and women.
There were two barbecue grills in the yard, with all kinds of grilled meat on them.
Xu Xiangyang was stunned for a moment. Could it be that barbecue is now popular?
this……
Something's not right. Is there a time travel element in this?
He carefully tidied his clothes, then, after confirming that everything was alright, followed them into the courtyard.
Liu Feng greeted a few people, including some who had played cards with him before.
Wu Hao was also inside. It was clear that he and Liu Feng were no longer on good terms, and the atmosphere between the two was very tense.
Everyone else knew about the feud between the two, so no one dared to go over and speak.
As for why the two of them were both here, Xu Xiangyang had no idea.
He ate a red apple that Cao Yajun handed him, waiting to see what would happen next.
The food and drinks here are all top-notch; at the very least, these apples are something most people can't buy.
Now, the good stuff from supply and marketing cooperatives and grocery stores is all consumed internally; even with quotas, you can't buy it outside.
Xu Xiangyang took a bite of the apple. Although the apple was not big, it was very sweet.
"What are you all doing? Come inside." A male voice rang out, and a man in his twenties wearing a black Zhongshan suit came out of the house.
He looked somewhat like a cold-faced young heartthrob from later generations, with an indifferent expression and an air of arrogance.
Xu Xiangyang was somewhat surprised. Everyone else treated him with respect, including Liu Feng and Wu Hao.
Cao Yajun looked at him with a straight face, without any other emotion.
This is a bit strange. Logically speaking, Cao Yajun's status is higher than Liu Feng's, so why does he look so concerned about that young man?
Since he knew nothing, Xu Xiangyang kept a low profile, eating and drinking as usual, trying to minimize his presence.
Even Cao Yajun can't afford to offend this person. If I were to cross him, I might get kicked out of the new city.
A group of people entered the building. The lobby on the first floor was very large, with plenty of sofas, tables and chairs, enough to seat more than a dozen people.
Xu Xiangyang found a corner and stood with Cao Yajun.
Not long after, someone brought in food from outside. The whole roasted lamb had been broken up, and the plates were full of lamb meat, which was then distributed.
Xu Xiangyang was lucky enough to get a plate of grilled mutton fat, but he was very dissatisfied with his plate.
It's obvious that it's leg fat; it's all skinny.
The worst-tasting part...
