The fate of writers

Chapter 40
Other than Zhou Zhou, Xiaoping and Xiaotian were waiting for Jiang Ling outside.Sister Meng and Huang Yiping are still at home.

Xiao Ping and Xiao Tian shared half of the grapefruit leaves for Jiang Ling and Liu Zhi to remove bad luck.Zhou Zhou looked at his empty hands, stepped forward helplessly and said, "Congratulations on your safe return, I hope you won't dislike me for only bringing a mouth."

"How could it be? We are safe and sound only because of Jichuan's help. Thank you!" Jiang Ling saluted and thanked him.

Zhou Zhou sideways dodged Jiang Ling to salute: "I can't bear it, I just talk about it, even the editor-in-chief went to Dongliu, if you want to thank you, you can thank the editor-in-chief, I don't dare to take credit. And Even without us, you will definitely be safe and sound. Liu Ju is not someone that I or the editor-in-chief can ask for."

Zhou Zhou was also very emotional. They were able to persuade Liu Ju to testify. You must know that husband and wife are one, Liu Shu will have a hard time, and Liu Ju will definitely suffer. How did Jiang Ling and the others convince Liu Ju?Although he was really curious, it was difficult to ask whether this was Jiang Ling's housework.

"We have a gift of thanks from Editor-in-Chief Yang, Ji Chuan, don't be modest. Without your matchmaking and running around, how could the case be settled so quickly? Besides, I have nothing to say, only a mouth to thank You, are you going to refuse even this?" Jiang Ling spread his hands and said.

"It turned out that I was being passionate." Zhou Zhou smiled heartily.

"Don't listen to her nonsense, we will always remember your friendship in a timely manner, and there will be a good reward. Please don't refuse, or the neighbors around you will know that the Jiang family treats their benefactor like this, and we may have no face to live anymore. You just treat it as a whole Let's meet for a while, please don't refuse our gift. The Jiang family is not a rich family, and all the gifts are worthless gadgets, so don't dislike them." Liu Zhi knows that in his life, Zhou Zhou can give charcoal in a timely manner. How precious her friend is, she has to maintain this friendship for Jiang Ling.

Zhou Zhou really felt that he had done nothing for Jiang Ling, and was about to refuse. Jiang Ling grabbed him with one hand and the willow branch with the other and said, "Don't refuse to refuse. Although Uncle Zeng Shi He didn’t treat me harshly, but I really missed home, even more than when I went to Pingbo Mansion, so let’s not talk at the yamen gate, go home, and chat while drinking hot tea. If Jichuan has nothing to do in the afternoon I'm going to kidnap you. Unless Editor Yang comes to ask for you in person."

Jiang Ling pulled people forward and walked forward, not giving anyone a chance to refuse.

Jiang Ling walked quickly, and under Jiang Ling's leadership, they soon arrived at Jiang's house.Before going home, Liu Zhi also greeted the neighbors left and right, and explained the reason. After all, not everyone pays attention to the latest melon in Yin County.It's better not to give the neighbors the impression that this family is a lawbreaker.

It was Huang Yiping who opened the door for Jiang Ling and the others. Sister Meng was cooking so that Jiang Ling and Liu Zhi could have a hot meal when they came.

"Madam, eldest lady, hurry up and get over the brazier. From now on, you can ward off evil spirits, and your days will be prosperous." Huang Yiping stopped Jiang Ling who was eager to go home, and instead moved the brazier that had been prepared long ago.

With a light leap, Jiang Ling jumped over the brazier, while Liu Zhi walked over steadily.

Before Huang Yiping put away the brazier, Xiao Ping pointed to himself and asked, "I, shall we cross over too?"

"After all, it's a public affair." Huang Yiping obviously kept secrets about the public affairs.

"Okay." Xiao Ping lifted up her skirt and stepped over with her eyes closed. She was afraid of fire.Then came Xiaotian and Zhou Zhou.

When Huang Yiping saw that there was no one behind him, he put away the brazier and closed the door.

Both Jiang Ling and Liu Zhi changed their clothes, and after just a short while, the food was ready, which shows how accurate Sister Meng's timing was.

Huang Yiping was not used to a round table and seven chairs. She had never seen such a scene. It was unreasonable for the master and servant to sit at the same table.Huang Yiping repeatedly waved his hands and refused, saying that he had eaten.Moreover, the Jiang family had just been burglarized not long ago, and she caught him in the act. There was no guarantee that someone would be thieves, so she had to guard them.

Sister Meng said mercilessly: "The Jiang family is just you and me living together. How can you hide from me whether you eat or not? Sit down together, the wife and the young lady are kind people, and there are not so many rules."

Jiang Ling also persuaded: "There are seven chairs for you. Sit down quickly. The thieves don't care about him. There is no way to guard against thieves. I'm afraid he is going around in a hurry right now."

Liu Zhi also followed suit, knowing people's hearts in adversity, and after this experience, they were able to trust Huang Yiping wholeheartedly.Once you enter Jiang's house, you are naturally a family.

Huang Yiping sat lightly on the edge of the chair, with his legs tightly closed. Even the chopsticks were a bit awkward to use, and he looked very reserved.

Xiao Ping, Xiao Tian and Sister Meng laughed out loud looking at Huang Yiping's appearance. Were they also like this at the beginning?

Huang Yiping glanced at the three of them, and became more cautious. Did she do something wrong?

Jiang Ling and Liu Zhi also laughed.Zhou Zhou did not join in the joyful atmosphere.He opened his mouth, but didn't know how to speak.

Jiang Ling saw that Zhou Zhou was hesitating to speak.She took the initiative to ask, "Jichuan, do you have anything to say?"

"I think the person your aunt mentioned looks like a person, but I can't confirm it. It's just a guess..." Zhou Zhou originally planned to investigate it himself, and then tell Jiang Ling the exact result.

"Is it someone Ji Chuan knows? Who is it? Ji Chuan said bluntly, don't worry, I'm not reckless and impulsive. As a victim, even if it's to prepare in advance, you should tell me, right?" Jiang Ling Try to restrain your excitement, and it will be easy to find the mastermind behind the scenes.What I am most afraid of is that the enemy is dark and we are clear. If you are too passive, you can only be forced to accept moves.

"Xu Shizhi, Liu Ju's description is very similar to Xu Shizhi. Xu Shizhi has a red round birthmark under the corner of his right eye, and he is left-handed. Even his height is similar." So many coincidences met, Zhou Zhou almost disappeared It was determined that Xu Shizhi did it.

Jiang Ling and Zhou Zhou had the same idea. With so many coincidences and enmity, it is very likely that it was Xu Shizhi.

"We can't be so arbitrary. There are many left-handed people in Yin County. Xiao Mo, who works under Zhang Yamen, is a left-handed swordsman. The birthmark may also be imitated through rouge. We need to investigate more carefully, and we must not unjustly accuse a good person." Jiang Ling said.

Jiang Ling also had a slight suspicion. Assuming that the person behind the scenes was Xu Shizhi and could come up with 50 taels of silver, then Xu Shizhi's family should not be short of money. Why would he go into battle in person? Wouldn't it be better to hire someone?There were many doubts, and Jiang Ling felt strange.
