Chapter 346 Return to Ji's House



It must be so painful to hurt that place!

Thinking of this, Yi Xiaoqiu felt a little uncomfortable.

"Hit by shrapnel from the explosives."

The patch, half the size of a fingernail, just penetrated into the flesh.

At that time, he almost fainted, but was awakened by the pain.

He thought he was going to die, but after some rescue, he actually survived.

Although the wound there was not big, it was the most difficult to heal.

He thought that this was how his life would be, but he never expected that there would be a day when things would get better.

Ji Shuyan said it calmly and concisely, but the fact itself was extremely shocking. Even if Yi Xiaoqiu used his imagination, he could only get a glimpse of the danger in it.

"It seems that good people are rewarded. Look, the injury that the doctors said was incurable actually healed on its own. This must be God helping you."

Yi Xiaoqiu immediately attributed the credit for his recovery to God.

Ji Shuyan glanced at Yi Xiaoqiu meaningfully, but said nothing.

His meaningful look made Yi Xiaoqiu feel a little guilty.

She turned her head toward the window guiltily, only to realize that this was not the way back. Just as she was about to ask, Ji Shuyan's voice rang out.

"Now that we're back, let's go see my grandpa. Let's go to the department store and do some shopping first."

Ji Shuyan was like a worm in Yi Xiaoqiu's stomach, answering the question she wanted to ask before she even asked it.

Just now, when Yi Xiaoqiu was in the clinic, she didn't really pay attention to what Ji Shuyan said to the doctor. She was thinking about how to prevent Ji Shuyan from suspecting her.

"Yeah." Yi Xiaoqiu didn't look back, still looking at the courtyard house that was constantly receding outside the car window.

There were courtyard houses on both sides of the road, and Yi Xiaoqiu couldn't even see them all.

When people on the roadside see a car, they always subconsciously take a second look.

In Beijing, it is not uncommon to see cars on the road. People at this time are curious about everything and can't help but take a second look.

This is still considered okay in Beijing. In other cities, if you see a car parked in front of someone's house, you will definitely touch it. If you are not allowed to touch it, you will have to touch it secretly.

More than ten minutes later, Ji Shuyan parked the car at the Jingshi Department Store.

After sitting in the car for so long and standing in front of the department store, Yi Xiaoqiu finally felt a little bit like being in a big city.

The department store is built in a very grand style, and its design is not outdated even in later generations. The entrance is bustling with people coming and going.

I have to say, it is worthy of being a department store in the capital.

There were far more goods inside than in other department stores. Yi Xiaoqiu was almost unable to speak after seeing them all. She secretly decided that she must take a good look around next time she came.

Ji Shuyan knew what the old man in the family liked, but unfortunately the old man had not been in good health in the past two years and could not touch cigarettes or alcohol.

Ji Shuyan took some canned soft snacks, malted milk, and some nutritional supplements.

Ji Shuyan was planning to buy some more fruit but was stopped by Yi Xiaoqiu.

"I just saw someone selling fruit on the roadside. There are two kinds of fruit that are not available here. I'll go see you. Wait here for a while."

Yi Xiaoqiu was afraid that he would be unhappy, so she ran away after she finished speaking, and ran down the stairs in the blink of an eye.

Ji Shuyan's eyes paused slightly. He had just seen someone selling watermelons on the roadside. As for selling some fruits that were not available in department stores, Ji Shuyan was a little skeptical.

Yi Xiaoqiu came out of the department store, looked left and right of the gate, and finally went into an alley next to it.

It’s not that she was reluctant to spend some money to buy fruits for Grandpa Ji, but there were fruits on the farm, and Yi Xiaoqiu felt there was no need to buy the fruits that were not very fresh and were not as good as the fruits on her farm.

Yi Xiaoqiu picked some apples, peaches, green grapes, and watermelons, which are all in season and available here.

Yi Xiaoqiu thought that she might stay for dinner at Ji's house later, so she picked some more vegetables, including cucumbers, loofahs, tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, leeks and other vegetables common in this season. She didn't dare to pick more than others for fear of revealing something.

After more than ten minutes, Yi Xiaoqiu came back with two large bags of fruits and vegetables.

Ji Shuyan was already waiting at the door. Seeing Yi Xiaoqiu carrying so many things, he immediately stepped forward to take them.

He didn't know until he mentioned it, and only then did he realize that these things were real. Ji Shuyan was a little curious about what Yi Xiaoqiu bought, so he opened the bag and took a look, and found that there was a big watermelon inside, which weighed at least more than 20 kilograms.

This is not all, there are other fruits and vegetables in it, which together weigh dozens of kilograms.

Seeing Ji Shuyan looking at the things in the bag in silence, Yi Xiaoqiu immediately shook her wrist and complained quietly, "If I had known these things were so cheap, I would have bought less. My hand is hurting."

"Then why did you buy so much?" Ji Shuyan glanced at Yi Xiaoqiu's thin arms.

Yi Xiaoqiu half-coquettishly said, "Oh! I saw that old woman squatting alone in the scorching sun selling things, and I felt sorry for her, so I bought all the food for her. I didn't expect her to be so stupid!"

Ji Shuyan reached out and held Yi Xiaoqiu's hand.

"Let's go back!"

Ji Shuyan put the things he bought in the trunk and didn't let Yi Xiaoqiu do anything.

Yi Xiaoqiu was also relieved and got on the passenger seat first.

By the time the two of them arrived at the entrance of the alley where Ji's house was, it was already past one in the afternoon.

This alley is quiet and there are few people on the roadside.

Yi Xiaoqiu was wondering why there was no one here. When he looked up, he saw a pavilion on the roadside in front of him. Standing inside was a guard.

There was a horizontal bar in the middle of the road. Ji Shuyan drove the car and stopped outside the barricade.

He took out his ID from his pocket and showed it to the other party. After the other party registered, he allowed the vehicle to pass.

Soon, the car finally stopped in front of a door with stone lions standing on both sides.

"It's done."

Ji Shuyan got out of the car first, then came around and helped Yi Xiaoqiu open the door.

After getting out of the car, Yi Xiaoqiu took a look at the slightly majestic gate and asked, "Is this your house?"

She knew that the Ji family was well off, but she didn't expect them to be so well off!

"Well, this is where I grew up." Ji Shuyan's face looked a little dejected.

It’s called home, but in such a big yard, only he and his grandfather depend on each other for survival.

Ji Shuyan took all the things out of the car and placed them in front of the door. Then he raised his hand and knocked on the copper ring on the door. After a while, a sound came from inside the door.

“Here I come!”

Soon, the door was opened and a middle-aged woman in her fifties appeared from behind the door. She had fair skin and looked clean and refreshed.

"Hey, Tiedan'er is back? This is your wife, right? She's so pretty! You guys are at home now, haven't you eaten yet?"

The woman's eyes were full of surprise when she saw Ji Shuyan, and when she looked at Yi Xiaoqiu, the smile in her eyes almost overflowed, and she was extremely enthusiastic.
