Chapter 170 Almond Cookies
Sun Yu looked at Jiang You's expression and said, "Should we ask Taoist Qingyang to help?"
"It's okay. Tang Butian left this matter to you and me, which means she thinks we can handle it. Taoist Qingyang is an outsider after all."
"That's right," Sun Yu stood up after thinking for a moment, "If you have nothing else to do here, I'll go back first."
"Go and do your work, I won't leave you alone."
Jiang You sent Sun Yu out of the yard.
After watching Sun Yu walk away, he turned back to the store, picked up the snakeskin bag, walked to the camphor tree, opened the bag, grabbed a few handfuls of mud and sprinkled it around the camphor tree.
While sprinkling, he murmured: "I pulled two leaves from you a few days ago. Today I will replenish them for you. Tomorrow I will try my best to grow into a big tree and attract tits. Do you understand?"
After sprinkling the soil, he tied the snakeskin bag again and walked to the pond. There were a few withered yellow grass leaves floating in the pond. He squatted down, fished out the leaves and washed his hands.
Boom, boom, boom.
He turned his head and saw Xu Zhihai standing by the courtyard door, knocking on the door with his fingers.
"My wife made some cupcakes this morning."
Jiang You saw the plastic bag in Xu Zhihai's hand. He stood up, walked to Xu Zhihai, reached out and took the bag he handed over, and said, "This is so funny."
"There's also some almond biscuits in it, for your son."
"Thank you."
"Have you had breakfast?"
"We just finished eating. Let's go sit in the store for a while, or go sit in the flower room?"
The pale golden sunlight falls slantingly in the greenhouse, shining on several rows of succulents, full of life.
"Let's go to the flower room."
"Okay, I'll move two chairs in."
Jiang You moved the soft chairs and small round table into the greenhouse and adjusted their position so that they could get enough sunlight.
He walked to the kitchen with the box, took out the almond biscuits, put them on a plate, took them out and placed them on the round table, and then made two more cups of tea.
After finishing all this, he invited Xu Zhihai to sit down on the soft chair.
The sun falls on me.
Xu Zhihai sat and looked at him, "You are really like a god these days. Tell me, when will we finish the remaining five games?"
"Let's celebrate the Chinese New Year. I've been a little busy recently." Jiang You took a bite of the almond biscuit. "This is delicious and fluffy. When next year comes, I will study how to use the oven and give it a try. Then I will ask more people
Your wife asked for advice."
"You are welcome to visit us at any time. Where is your son?" Xu Zhihai asked.
"I'm playing games in the room. It's cold outside. I'm afraid he'll get cold when he comes out. It won't be good if he gets sick." Jiang You complained about Jiang Mo to Xu Zhihai. "In winter, I wear a lot of clothes and it's inconvenient to move around. I didn't notice anyone."
He, he just took off his coat and he was having so much fun, I was worried to death."
"As parents, you just have to worry more," Xu Zhihai held the cup in his hand, "Now I take Jiajia to and from get off work every day, and I'm afraid that Zhang Lin will come back again." He paused, and then asked tentatively: "No Now that you know this, how are you doing now?"
"There's quite some progress."
"real?"
"Of course it's true."
"I am definitely relieved about you, but you also know that until this matter is completely resolved, I will not be able to feel at ease for a day. In front of Jiajia and my wife, I can't show it. If I panic, they
It will be even more panicky.”
"I understand, you are the backbone of the family," Jiang You took a bite of a biscuit and then drank a sip of black tea, "but there is no need to rush."
Xu Zhihai sighed, "I know it too. I don't know when these days will end."
A cold wind blew by, the sun was covered by clouds, and the light in the greenhouse became dim.
"If you want to solve it quickly..."
"Is there any way?"
"Do you agree to let Jiajia take some risks?" Jiang You asked.
Xu Zhihai's expression suddenly became serious, "What does this mean?"
"This organization is very cautious. It has been operating in China for a long time. We have not taken action. We just want to completely eradicate this organization from the land of China." Jiang You touched the quick cookie again.
, "As for Jiajia, she is a bit special."
"What's special?"
"One is, she has never been in love, right?"
"We have talked about it before, when we were in junior high school..." Xu Zhihai saw Jiang You's suggestive eyes, "I actually don't know much about this, because Xiao Zhang and I are both quite open-minded."
"While soaking in the hot spring, my friend chatted with her. Her thinking was always very clear. If she were an ordinary girl, she would have been so fascinated by Zhang Lin that she didn't know what was going on."
"Your friend? Is she the proprietress of the bookstore down the street?"
Jiang You laughed, "Yes, yes, Sister Nan."
"It's not easy for her, raising her daughter alone. Her daughter will soon be in junior high school, right?"
"I'm going to be in fifth grade next year, and my grades are pretty good."
"I only have a daughter, Jiajia, and I can't take risks with her." Xu Zhihai changed the subject.
"There's no risk," Jiang You thought for a moment, "How about this, I let her hold my son? Then you won't have to worry, right?"
"Ah?" Xu Zhihai didn't understand what Jiang You meant for a while.
"Every move of their organization is now under our surveillance."
"That's good."
"If you agree, let's set up a bureau here, and I'm quite confident that it will be completely solved before the year."
Xu Zhihai remained silent.
"Mr. Xu, let me tell you the truth. The methods of these organizations are difficult for ordinary people to guard against."
"What's the meaning?"
Jiang You turned his head and looked into Xu Zhihai's eyes, "Maybe without knowing it, your daughter is no longer your daughter."
Clouds are passing by.
The sun was shining warmly on my body, and Jiang You's voice was unhurried and lazy.
Xu Zhihai felt cold all over.
"Of course, this is the worst and most extreme situation, and the probability of it happening is very low." Jiang You turned his head and sat upright, "If it were someone else, I would never say this.
Most people won’t understand. But that’s the fact. The police are always running behind criminals. It’s impossible to take the initiative without taking any risks.”
Xu Zhihai thought for a while, then he nodded, "I understand what you mean, I want to think about it and discuss it with my wife and Jiajia."
"Don't worry, I will just mention it. No matter what, I have been keeping an eye on this organization for so long, and I will definitely not let them harm the people again."
Xu Zhihai became a little uneasy and chatted with Jiang You for a few more words before leaving.
Jiang You stayed in the greenhouse until noon, taking a sip of biscuits and a sip of black tea. He didn't return to the store until he finished all the biscuits.
