Father Jiang and elder brother Jiang were asking Jiang Che about their experiences in the south, while mother Jiang was more concerned about Wei Xuan's health: "Is there anything you are not used to while away from home?" After all, the south is quite far from Beijing, and the climate is quite different.
"It's not uncomfortable. Jiang Che bought a sleeper berth. I can get there in one sleep."
"That's good." Jiang's mother nodded with satisfaction. She always felt that it was too lonely for her youngest son to have only one child in his family. Although she liked Yuanyuan very much and did not favor boys over girls, people nowadays always wanted to have many children, so it didn't matter if she had another child, whether it was a boy or a girl.
She didn't urge him before because she was worried about her son's work. But now, ever since she found out Wei Xuan was pregnant, she has been so happy.
After having dinner at Jiang's house, the couple took their daughter and her things home.
Yuanyuan, who hadn't seen her parents for a long time, jumped and skipped along the way, and her little mouth never stopped chattering.
Seeing this, Wei Xuan asked her, "Are you so happy? Isn't it good to be at grandma's house? You still have your sister to play with you. You will be alone at home."
"But I want to be with my parents more." Fearing that her parents would abandon her again, Yuanyuan hugged Wei Xuan's arms tightly and said, "Mom, can you take me with you when you go out in the future?"
...
...
Wei Xuan looked at her daughter's clear eyes and couldn't bear to refuse. After a long while, she said, "But you want to go to school?"
"Ah," Yuanyuan lowered her head depressedly, "I wish I could grow up quickly."
When she grows up, she doesn’t have to go to school anymore and she can follow her parents wherever they go.
Wei Xuan encouraged her: "Then you must study hard. Once you are admitted to university, life will be easy. Look at your brother Yuancheng. He is very free every day now."
Jiang Yuancheng is 22 years old this year and is in his senior year of college. Yuanyuan listened to her mother and recalled the time she lived at her grandmother's house. She seemed to have often seen Yuancheng staying in bed in the morning. So she believed what Wei Xuan said about having a lot of free time after getting into college and kept this sentence in her little heart.
Jiang Che felt sorry for his wife who kept setting traps for his daughter. Would she really be able to have a leisurely life after being admitted to university? Jiang Che, who had never been to university, knew that it was impossible. This statement could only deceive the ignorant little girl.
Whether it was Wei Xiaolong or Jiang Yuancheng, Jiang Che had seen them staying up for days and nights in order to study.
In order to prevent his daughter from being fooled by her mother again, Jiang Che changed the subject and told her about the gift he brought back for her this time.
The father and daughter had a happy chat. When they got home, Wei Xuan pulled Jiang Che aside and asked him, "Should I tell the child that I'm pregnant?"
It would have been best to get a preventive measure in advance, but the problem is that Yuanyuan is still young. If I tell her, it would be bad if she lets it slip when she goes out.
In the end, his worry about his wife prevailed: "Why don't we wait a few months, until your belly gets bigger?" He would delay it for as long as possible, and then tell her when he can no longer hide it.
This time will also allow him to think about how to tell his daughter so that she can keep the secret.
"Okay, then I'll do as you say."
Since he had decided not to tell the child for the time being, Jiang Che did not plan to tell anyone else, including the Wei family. The less people who knew, the less danger there was. Only Jiang's father and mother knew about it.
At night, after his wife and children had gone to bed, Jiang Che dressed neatly and prepared to go to Cheng Shao's house to see if they had returned.
If he didn't come back, Jiang Che would really consider calling the police.
As for why Cheng Shao and Xue Bin, who Jiang Che was talking about, haven't come back yet?
It turned out that these three people were afraid of encountering robbers on the way, so they didn't dare to travel during the day. They were driving at night all the way here, and they certainly couldn't drive fast at night.
This resulted in Jiang Che and his group, who had returned late, already arriving, but they hadn't returned yet.
Even so, they were able to get back on the third night, all thanks to Xue Bin's familiarity with the road. He took them on a small path, saving them a lot of distance and time.
It was such a coincidence that Jiang Che came right after they arrived at Cheng Shao's house.
Section 85
Seeing the truck parked in front of Cheng Shao's house from a distance, Jiang Che was relieved to see that they had returned safely. Seeing that they were busy, he immediately quickened his pace and ran forward to help them unload the goods.
Cheng Shao saw Jiang Che and pointed at the refrigerator and washing machine in the car and said, "You came at the right time. Let's move these two things to your house while Brother Xue and the others are here, so you don't have to find another car to move them."
Jiang Che felt a little embarrassed to trouble Xue Bin so late at night.
Xue Bin didn't care. It wasn't far from here to Jiang Che's house anyway, and it wouldn't take much effort to make the trip. He looked at Jiang Che and asked, "Shall we leave now?"
Of course it would be great if someone was willing to help, Jiang Che said without hesitation: "Okay, then I'll trouble you to make another trip for me."
"Then get in the car."
After Jiang Che climbed onto the truck, he said to Cheng Shao who was standing at the door: "I'll bring you the money tomorrow when I have time."
"Okay, you guys go now." Jiang Che had helped him so much, how could Cheng Shao care about these few hundred dollars.
It only took ten minutes to drive from Cheng Shao's house to Jiang Che's house. The difficulty was moving these two things to the sixth floor. In order not to disturb the neighbors late at night, the movement could not be too big.
Fortunately, the three big men were strong enough, and although the things were a bit heavy, they managed to move them up.
Jiang Che saw Xue Bin and the others off. When they were in the car and about to leave, Jiang Che suddenly remembered something and quickly walked forward and knocked on the glass window of the driver's seat.
Xue Bin lowered the window: "What? Is there anything else?"
Jiang Che smiled and said, "Brother Xue, when are you free? I'll treat you to a meal."
Thinking that he wanted to thank him for this matter, Xue Bin waved his hand and refused: "No, forget about the meal, it's only right to take money for the job."
Seeing that he had misunderstood, Jiang Che explained, "It's not about this matter. I want to talk to you about something else. When would it be convenient for you?"
Xue Bin thought for a while and said: "Okay, then the day after tomorrow." He had been out for so long, and if he had to go back to the team tomorrow, he wouldn't have time, so the day after tomorrow happened to be free.
"Then it's settled. We'll meet at the state-owned restaurant at noon the day after tomorrow." After saying that, Jiang Che took two steps back and said, "Okay, I won't disturb you guys anymore. Go back and rest."
Xue Bin nodded at him, rolled up the window, started the car and drove away.
When Wei Xuan woke up the next morning, she found two extra things in the living room.
"Was this pulled back last night?" How come she didn't hear any movement at all.
Jiang Che peeled a boiled egg for his daughter and let her eat it herself. Only then did he have time to answer Wei Xuan's question: "Brother Xue helped me carry it up here yesterday. Don't worry about it. Come and eat. I'll see where to put it after I send my daughter to school."
"Okay." Wei Xuan was pregnant now, so it was inconvenient for her to move these heavy objects. She sat down at the table and found that there were fried dough sticks today, so she asked Jiang Che, "Did you buy this this morning?"
"Well, there's a new store just at the intersection ahead. How about trying it?"
Wei Xuan picked up a dough stick and took a bite: "Mm, it tastes good and is crispy enough. It would be even better if it were paired with soy milk."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? He sells it. But I didn't buy it when I cooked porridge this morning. If you want to drink it, I'll buy it for you tomorrow."
"No need, I'm just saying, this is already very good." Wei Xuan suddenly felt a little embarrassed for being picky when eating ready-made food.
Jiang Che didn't think it was a big deal. It was just a bowl of soy milk. How could he not satisfy his wife with such a small request?
Little Yuanyuan has always had a good appetite. In the morning, she ate a fried dough stick, a boiled egg, and drank a large bowl of bean porridge with sugar. She ate until she was full before putting down her chopsticks.
Seeing that his daughter had finished eating, Jiang Che quickly drank the remaining porridge in the bowl, stood up and said to Wei Xuan: "I'm going to send the child to school first."
Wei Xuan nodded, kissed her daughter's little face, watched the father and daughter walk to the door, change their shoes and close the door before eating breakfast again.
When Jiang Che came back from sending his daughter home, she had just come out of the kitchen after washing the dishes.
Jiang Che went to put the washing machine and refrigerator in order, while she went back to the house to collect all the dirty clothes and the sheets and quilt covers that had been changed during yesterday's cleaning, preparing to try out the newly bought washing machine later to see if it worked properly.
The busy morning passed like this, and the two did not go out again until the afternoon.
Just like yesterday, Jiang Che sent Wei Xuan to the store first, and then he took the watch to Wu Yun.
He kept twenty watches out of the 150, planning to give one to each of his children, and gave the remaining 130 to Wu Yun.
He made five thousand yuan from this transaction. No wonder the Cai family invested so much money in it. This thing makes money quickly.
After the deal with Wu Yun, Jiang Che went to find Cheng Shao after getting the money. He hadn't paid him for the washing machine and refrigerator yesterday.
As expected, Cheng Shao was really at home.
When Bian Qianqian saw Jiang Che coming, she welcomed him into the house and sat him down before saying, "Cheng Shao is still sleeping. Wait a minute while I go wake him up."
Jiang Che came to give money, and it didn't matter whether Cheng Shao was there or not. But before he could say anything, Bian Qianqian had already turned and left.
She walked into the inner room and nudged Cheng Shao, who was still sleeping, and said, "Wake up, Jiang Che is here to see you."
Cheng Shao had been frightened for several days. When he got home, he relaxed and fell into a deep sleep. Now, his wife woke him up and he mumbled in a daze, "Who's here?"
Bian Qianqian had no choice but to repeat again: "Jiang Che is here to see you. He is sitting in the main room. Why don't you get up quickly?"
"Brother Jiang?" After hearing clearly who his wife was talking about, Cheng Shao finally came to his senses and quickly got out of bed and put on his clothes: "Brother Jiang is here, why didn't you call me earlier? When did he come? Didn't he wait long?"
"No, he just arrived not long ago. Hurry up, I'll go out to greet him." After saying that, Bian Qianqian left.
Cheng Shao put on his clothes and walked to the yard to wash his face and brush his teeth. It took him less than three minutes to reach the living room.
Seeing him in a hurry, Jiang Che asked, "You went out to steal last night, why are you still not up so late?"
Cheng Shao sat down on the chair and asked Bian Qianqian to go to the kitchen to get him something to eat. Then he looked at Jiang Che apologetically and said, "Brother Jiang, you didn't wait long, did you? You don't know what kind of life I've been through on the road these days. I haven't slept well for several days, and this is what happened."
Jiang Che was really curious when he said that, but seeing that he dozed off several times while talking, he decided not to ask too much now.
