After going ashore at the funeral home, I relied on prophecy to solve the case and save myself

Chapter 15 Crest Garden
The ceiling with intersecting wooden strips is inlaid with auspicious clouds and flying birds made of white jade. The exquisitely carved mahogany Buddhist altar is divided into upper and lower floors. The table in the front displays rich dishes and offerings. The background wall is decorated with a circular light pool, which looks classical and elegant. Without losing the extravagance.

Zhu Jiangjiang lit three pillars of fragrance and put them on the red copper censer. Every year on the fifteenth day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, she would go back to Zhu's house for dinner, just because grandma's memorial tablet was placed here, and she wanted to come back to offer incense.

Zhu Jiangjiang's parents divorced when she was three years old, and her mother loves freedom by nature, so she went to country J without saying anything, and never came back.Her father was working hard in Qinglong City at the time and had no time to take care of her, so he handed her over to her grandma in the countryside to take care of her.

It wasn't until her grandmother died when she was 16 that she was finally taken back to Zhu's house.It's a pity that he was kicked out before he stayed for a year.

"Dinner is ready, come and eat quickly."

When Zhu Jiangjiang walked to the dining table, she saw that Father Zhu had already sat down at the top, and her younger brother Zhu Jianfeng was sitting next to her.Stepmother Chen Chen was carrying the last dish, and came out with a smile on her face.

"Hurry up, hurry up, I have to go back to school to finish my paper after eating." Zhu Jianfeng picked up the chopsticks and urged impatiently.

As soon as Chen Chen put down the food in his hands, Zhu Jianfeng started to eat, completely ignoring Father Zhu who was at the head and Zhu Jiangjiang who hadn't sat down yet.

"Eat slowly, don't choke." Chen Chen made a bowl of soup for his son.

"Why are you standing there after eating?" Father Zhu cast a dissatisfied glance at Zhu Jiangjiang.

Already accustomed to the family's indifference, Zhu Jiangjiang didn't take it seriously and walked over on crutches.

Just as he was about to sit next to Zhu Jianfeng, he stopped him with his hand holding the drumstick and said, "This seat belongs to my sister."

"Nonsense, Xixi won't come back for dinner today, you're the only one who is stingy. Jiang Jiang, come and sit here with Auntie, don't worry about that idiot." Chen Chen pulled away the chair beside him and smoothed things over at the right time.

Zhu Jiangjiang originally wanted to be lazy, it doesn't matter where he sits, he just wants to finish eating and leave quickly.Unexpectedly, after sitting down, before eating two bites, Father Zhu would speak.

"Your nephew placed a full moon wine last month, why didn't you, an aunt, go?"

Zhu Jiangjiang recalled that she seemed to have indeed received a full moon wine invitation in the mailbox last month, but when she saw an unfamiliar letter, she thought it was sent by mistake, so she didn't open it at all.

She won't go there even if she sees her. She doesn't see her once a year. She can't even remember what Zhu Jianxi looks like. Where can she get extra money to give her a gift.

"It's all because I'm too busy at work, and I really can't ask for leave."

"Go to work? I finally found a job, that's great! Look at my husband, I told you that Jiang Jiang will naturally become sensible when she gets older. You see, in her twenties, she finally knows how to go out and look for a job. Doesn't this make progress? ?" Chen Chen smiled with relief.

"What kind of job can she find? If there is a good job, she should be fired by now. How can she go to work with a limping leg? Which unit recruits a disabled person." Zhu Jianfeng mocked while picking up the prawn.

"Fortunately, I don't need to use my feet. I'm a makeup artist." Zhu Jiangjiang said slowly.

"My husband, let me tell you that makeup artists are very popular now, but they are not very good. Mrs. Lu just told me the other day that she invited a makeup artist who came back from country J, and the door-to-door fee alone costs 1 each time." many."

Mrs. Lu is a famous lady in Qinglong City, and her husband is also an important business partner of Zhu's father. Hearing her news, Zhu's father, who didn't like makeup, also chatted with interest.

"Jiang Jiang, hone your skills well. When you improve your skills, come over and try on makeup for your aunt. If you try well, it will be the best model. If you keep a few big clients, you will let your father I'll invest in a studio for you." Although over 40, but because of the well-maintained skin and delicate skin, Chen Chen didn't see a single wrinkle when he smiled.

"What kind of studio do you open for small troubles, Xixi got married two years ago, look at her, how do you spoil her - don't go to school, don't read books, can't do anything, It's like a pile of mud, you can't do anything in your twenties. I will arrange a date for you in two days, and you go have a good meal with him and get to know each other." Father Zhu said dissatisfied.

"Blind date? No."

Zhu Jiangjiang didn't bother to find excuses anymore, because it was useless.

Sure enough, Father Zhu, who was rarely rejected, slapped the table in a rage.Feeling that this meal could not be eaten any longer, Zhu Jiangjiang took advantage of Chen Chen's persuasion to persuade Father Zhu, and hurriedly left on crutches.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked out of the villa, he was chased by Chen Chen driving a car.

"Jiang Jiang, get in the car. A taxi can't get in here. Auntie will see you off."

The villa where Zhu's family lives is located in the inner circle of Cuiyuan. It is one of the few hilltop villas, with the mountains behind and the sea facing, and the scenery is unique.

The only downside is that empty taxis can't get into Jade Garden. If you just walk, it takes two to three 10 minutes for a normal person with no leg problems to walk to the gate of the community.

Someone was willing to give it to him, so Zhu Jiangjiang was naturally not that stupid, so he got into the car unceremoniously.

Along the way, Chen Chen began her consolation with a gentle tone, trying to persuade Zhu Jiangjiang to follow Zhu's father's advice and go on a blind date.

But this time, Zhu Jiangjiang didn't intend to compromise easily. He suffered from being dumb before because he voluntarily gave up struggling because of his negative life.Now that I have the opportunity to live, I naturally want to live comfortably, so I am impatient to suffer those grievances.

After persuading him for a long time, maybe because he didn't expect Zhu Jiangjiang to be so stubborn, Chen Chen, who has always been very patient, couldn't help but sigh.

She parked the car directly on the side of the road and pulled the handbrake.

"The date this time is really good. If Xixi hadn't gotten married, it wouldn't be your turn. Tell me, what exactly do you need to go on a blind date?"

The same beautiful and elegant makeup removed the gentleness and gracefulness that he pretended to be on weekdays, and added a bit of shrewdness between his brows and eyes.

Zhu Jiangjiang was about to shake his head, but suddenly he thought of something, and his eyes swept over one place involuntarily.

Although it was only a very subtle movement, Chen Chen, who was always good at observing words and expressions, noticed it all at once.

She raised her eyebrows, smiled, and took off the biyingying bracelet on her wrist, shaking it in front of Zhu Jiangjiang's eyes.

"I didn't expect you, a thief girl, to have a good eye. You can see a big one at a glance. Go on a blind date on Friday, and this is yours."

This bracelet is made of Yanglu waxy jadeite. In the past, it was considered a priceless treasure because it has been passed down for several generations.But the only reason why Zhu Jiangjiang wanted this bracelet was because grandma had worn it all her life.

"And those books, I want too."

"Okay, yes." Chen Chen made a decision as soon as he turned his eyes.

Father Zhu's mother is a well-known grassroots doctor in the mountains, and is famous in the village for making snake medicine.When she died that year, she left nothing but a bracelet and a few books.

Father Zhu started his business in Qinglong with pharmaceuticals. He was delighted to find the secret recipe left by his old mother, but he did not expect that those few books were just superficial Chinese medicine theories. No.

"There is one more requirement. I will decide the location of the blind date on Friday." Zhu Jiangjiang said.

Friday happened to be NO.19, something Zhu Jiangjiang wanted, but he didn't want to lose his life.

That prophetic dream that day foreshadowed water, and it should be safe to avoid places with water.
