Chapter 24 Plum Rain

We went to Jiumei Plaza to eat grilled fish, bought popcorn and Coke and watched a movie. When Jiang You returned to Cultural Street, it was almost ten o'clock.

A couple running at night passed by him.

He watched the couple disappear from his sight, touched his belly, and started running. After running staggeringly for dozens of meters, the insect house arrived.

"Starting running every night from tomorrow." He walked into the yard.

The sound of the wind blowing leaves, the sound of water in the pond, and the sound of music coming from the bar in the distance were mixed together.

A black spider crawled on the flower stand next to the door.

"The sunflowers have been cut. What do you think about planting some mint? The leaves can be soaked in water to drink?"

He opened the door, walked in, closed the door tightly and locked it, then walked upstairs.

After washing, he took a bottle of Coke and went back to the bedroom. After lying on the bed, he took out his mobile phone and received a lot of likes here and there.

The group chat of "Sweet and Salty Battle" showed hundreds of chat records. Jiang You clicked in and took a look. It turned out that it was Zhao Shiqi who was persuading Yuan Shu to leave Tangjiang and go to Zhuzhou to find a job.

Zhuzhou has a strong Internet atmosphere, relatively supportive policies, and many opportunities. Tangjiang focuses more on the financial and service industries, with clear and rigid regulations.

Under Zhao Shiqi's persuasion, Yuan Shu was a little shaken and hesitant. The atmosphere gradually became a little awkward.

Jiang You thought for a moment and sent a few photos of pomegranate saplings to the group.

Jiang You: When the pomegranates are ripe, we will drink and chat under the tree.

Zhou Tao: Down with the landlord!

Yuan Shu: Down with capitalism!

Zhao Shiqi: Divide the land! Divide the pomegranates!

Jiang You: I passed by the vegetable market today. June yellow has been on the market. I will get a few more pots of chrysanthemums. When you come next month, how about we enjoy the chrysanthemums and eat crabs?

Yuan Shu: Appreciate Boss Jiang’s chrysanthemums and eat Boss Jiang’s crabs.

Zhou Tao: Beautiful.

Zhao Shiqi: I'm so happy.

Jiang You: Then it’s decided, it will be the third weekend of next month.

Yuan Shu and the other three agreed, and the topic was moved on.

Jiang You opened the Coke and took a sip, then found a novel about cultivating immortals on his mobile phone reader and started reading it.

I had read less than a fifth of a multi-million-word novel at four in the morning.

The phone is out of battery.

He yawned, took off his glasses, put them on the bedside table, and fell asleep.

He was woken up by peeing.

It was dark and raining.

He subconsciously checked his cell phone and found that it had automatically shut down when it was out of battery. He pulled out the charging cable from the ground, connected it, and then went to the toilet to drain the water.

The bathroom window was not closed tightly, and the rain came in, covering the ground with water.

Jiang You closed the window, mopped the water on the floor, brushed his teeth and washed his face, then returned to the bedroom and got into bed again.

The phone has been charged a little and can be turned on.

There was a missed call from Chen Nan. He called back.

"Sister Nan, do you have anything to do with me?"

"When I passed by your place at noon, I saw a sapling fell down. I couldn't get through to you on the phone, so I knew you were still sleeping."

Jiang You took off his phone and looked at the time, 3:20 pm.

"I ran out of battery while reading a novel yesterday."

"Just woke up?"

"Well, I'll go down and take a look now. Thank you, Sister Nan."

"Thank you, there is no one in the store, would you like to come over and sit for a while and have a cup of tea?"

"I'm going to go downstairs first and make me a latte. I have a headache."

"Okay, or a packet of syrup?"

"Yes."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang You walked downstairs. He stood by the door and looked into the yard. The pomegranate sapling on the outside fell down, and its roots were exposed from the soil. He sighed and walked into the rain.

inside.

He straightened the sapling with his hands and piled up the soil with his feet. When he let go of his hand, the sapling still fell outward.

The mud was softened by water.

He thought for a while, walked to the flower stand next to the door, took out the cut sunflowers pot by pot, pulled out the sunflowers, held them in his hand, and poured the soil toward the roots of the pomegranate seedlings.

This time, the pomegranate sapling stood strangely.

Then, he poured the remaining soil evenly under the other four pomegranate saplings.

He looked around.

"Come on, show your strength."

The few sunflowers he held in his hands softened and turned into green powder, falling from his fingers. They were wetted by the rain and mixed into the soil.

"It's time to save some fertilizer."

After putting away the flower pots, he went to the rest area to take a look at the succulents in the flower shed. They were well protected from rain and the ground was not damp.

After returning to the house, he washed his hands, changed out of his wet clothes, and wiped his hair with a towel.

After heating a cup of milk and placing it on the coffee table, he took an umbrella and went downstairs.

Chen Nan's bookstore is called Guanghe Bookstore.

Open the door and walk into the bookstore.

The wind chimes are ringing.

Chen Nan walked out from behind the bar in the reading area.

Jiang You looked around, "Where's Xiao Liu?"

"I'm going back to collect my clothes. I see there's no one here today, so I told her not to come over again."

Jiang You sat down by the window. Chen Nan brought out a plate of fried noodles with sausage and a glass of iced latte and placed them in front of Jiang You. "I guess you haven't eaten anything today, so I went next door and ordered some fried noodles."

Jiang You took out his chopsticks, mixed the noodles and ate them.

Chen Nan took a glass of water and sat down opposite him. "My ex-husband came to me at noon and said he wanted to remarry."

"Remarriage? Is he embarrassed?"

Not hearing Chen Nan's reply, Jiang You raised his head and saw her hesitant expression, "Are you soft-hearted?"

"How could that happen?" Chen Nan took a sip of water and sighed, "Yunyun will be in junior high school in two years. The school district where my ex-husband lives is better."

"It's not bad here, right?"

"The Fourth Middle School is still not as good as the Tang Wai Affiliated Middle School."

"Do you think you are raising a child just to play games?" Jiang You put down his chopsticks. After wiping his mouth with paper, he took a sip of ice latte. "What middle school did you go to and Yunyun got a few extra attribute points?"

"I'm also hesitating, right?"

"Have you forgotten what your ex-in-laws did to you at that time? Do you think that after a few years of divorce, all these problems will automatically be solved and disappear? After remarrying, you still have to face it?"

"I can bear it."

"You think Yunyun is stupid. Can't she see that you are tolerant? Do mother and daughter Lian Xin know? Knowing that you are all for her, how stressed is she? Will she be in a good mood? If she is in a bad mood, she can read a book.

Are you going in?"

"I didn't expect this." Chen Nan said sarcastically.

"Then what are you thinking about? Her current classmates will all go to the same junior high school as her, right?"

"Almost, what's wrong?"

"She was originally in junior high school, and her old friends were all in the same school. She would also recognize new friends, so she wouldn't feel like she was in a completely unfamiliar place. But after changing the school district, everyone else was in a small group, and she was alone. This social

How much pressure is it? Even adults may not be able to bear it."

"What you say makes sense."

"This is my truth, and it's you. If anyone else asks me, I'd be too lazy to tell you," Jiang You glanced at Chen Nan, "The atmosphere at home is not good, and the school can't integrate into it. How sensitive are adolescent children? If No. 4 Middle School is

That kind of rubbish middle school, you still have to think about it, the fourth middle school is not much worse, what's there to think about?"

"Okay, okay, okay, aren't you just afraid that I will remarry?" Chen Nan glanced sideways at Jiang You, "Okay, okay, I know what to do. Next time he comes, I won't open the door for him, okay?

"

"By the way, lend me your pots of geraniums. I'll find someone to take pictures in the yard tomorrow."

"Okay, where are your sunflowers?"

"Why take pictures after the flowers have been cut? I've cleared out the pots and prepared to plant chrysanthemums."

"Are you ready to do business?"

"I've been doing pretty well," Jiang You thought for a while, "How do you get the gym card you often go to?"

"I got an annual card, buy one year and get one year free, 8,000 yuan. I also bought private lessons. My coach is pretty good. I'll ask you to join me next time?"
