Rebirth: Don’t be a coward and be a mother’s baby

Chapter 148 My godfather told me this

The next day.

At noon, Xie Jianjia arrived at Yijiangnan Private Restaurant at the appointed time. When she walked into the box, she found that Zheng Yihong was already sitting in his seat.

The middle-aged man in his 40s was wearing a complete set of sportswear and a hat. His image was completely different from the previous two times.

It would be difficult for outsiders to guess that this man is actually the mayor of Yunlu City.

"Sorry, Uncle Zheng, I'm late."

Zheng Yihong waved his hand: "It's not that you came late, it's that I came early."

Xie Jianjia sat down about three people away from Zheng Yihong.

Not far or near, just right.

"Look at the menu. If there's anything you like, you're welcome to order it yourself." The man pushed the menu on the table in front of Xie Jianjia.

After looking at it, Xie Jianjia casually ordered two vegetarian dishes.

Zheng Yihong looked at it, didn't say anything, and directly made a phone call to report the dishes to the person on the other side of the phone.

You don't even have to go out and call the waiter.

"This is a private restaurant under the name of Ye Xuechao's wife. I often bring my family here to eat. The safety can be guaranteed. Don't worry."

Xie Jianjia was indeed relieved after hearing this, because Ye Xuechao said that there were many people staring at Zheng Yihong. What if his whereabouts were investigated by someone interested?

After hanging up the phone when ordering food, Zheng Yihong picked up the milk on the table, poured a glass for Xie Jianjia in front of her and handed it to her.

"Come on, tell me, how do you know the names of these people?"

Zheng Yihong took out the blank paper that Xie Jianjia had given him last time from his pocket, put it on the table and spread it out in front of her.

Xie Jianjia put her hands on her knees and stared at the milk.

"Lei Cai is the principal of our school. When I first entered the second middle school, I offended his daughter. During the confrontation with his daughter Lei Hanli, I noticed something was wrong with her father."

After a quick glance at Zheng Yihong, his expression showed no change, and Xie Jianjia continued.

"If you have done some research, you should know that I went to primary school in Ningli County, and the aunt of Dong Ming, the head of Ningli County, is my neighbor Grandma Dong. She has been very good to me since I was a child, even when I was My parents helped my mother a lot on this matter. It was natural that I met County Magistrate Dong Ming, and he later became my godfather."

Zheng Yihong did investigate these matters, and she did not lie.

He poured himself a glass of milk, took a sip, and waited for Xie Jianjia to continue.

"I told you before that my mother's stall was targeted several times. My godfather was very worried when he found out about it. He sent someone to protect my mother and investigated who was targeting my family. Later he learned about what happened to me during this time. For the safety of me and my mother, I followed this line of investigation and found Lei Caize..."

Xie Jianjia squeezed her hands on her knees nervously.

"My godfather called me and told me that he had found something wrong, but the county was too busy with things to do, so I asked my mother and I to pay attention when we went out."

Xie Jianjia looked up at Zheng Yihong and said, "That day I happened to come across the scene where Grandpa Zheng was hit by a motorcycle. I told my goddad that I seemed to have met someone who looked like you. After hearing this, my goddad made me think Fazi told you the names of these people, and then I tried my best to get close to Grandpa Zheng and you."

After speaking, his head lowered.

He had an exchange with Dong Ming before coming here. Even after the meal, when Zheng Yihong contacted Dong Ming to ask him about his situation, Dong Ming could still respond normally.

"So your godfather asked you to come to me for all this?"

Zheng Yihong's expression was filled with deep suspicion. He did not think that a small county magistrate had the right to investigate Lei Caize and other people related to Lei Caize in the city.

So here's the problem. He secretly investigated Xie Jianjia's family situation and kinship relationships. Apart from Dong Ming, there seemed to be no suitable candidate.

Although this little girl shows a maturity and calmness that belies her age, she is just a child who has just entered junior high school. Knowing that these things will not do her any good, there is absolutely no need for her to take this risk.The only reasonable explanation for this incident is that the little girl in front of her wanted to help her father.

Now, Zheng Yihong felt that the little girl was just a middleman. He relaxed his body and leaned back in the chair, and his expression became amiable.

He looked at Xie Jianjia, smiled and asked, "What else did your godfather say?"

Finally back to the topic, Xie Jianjia knew that the other party believed her words, and her anxious heart returned to her stomach.

He took out the film the man gave him yesterday from the schoolbag he carried on his back.

"Uncle Zheng, this is something my godfather sent to protect me and my mother when they were following Lei Caize. He asked me to give it to you."

Xie Jianjia didn't know what was in the film, but she could guess something from the man's frightened expression and frightened tone yesterday.

Matching the photo the man took of himself yesterday, it should be pretty much the same.

Zheng Yihong estimated that there was some irrefutable evidence here, so he took the things and carefully put them into the inner pocket of his sports jacket.

"Little girl, I will contact your godfather about this matter."

At this time, the waiter knocked on the door, and Zheng Yihong shouted: "Come in."

The two waiters quickly placed the food on the table and quickly left.

At this time, Zheng Yihong's face was full of gentleness and intimacy, much like when Xie Jianjia first met him.

"Come on, girl, have something to eat. What I ordered are all the things children like to eat."

There were five dishes on the table in front of me, sweet and sour pork ribs, cumin beef skewers, sweet-scented osmanthus rice cake, and two vegetarian dishes ordered by Xie Jianjia.

"Girl, eat more. If you don't finish it, pack it and take it home. We can't waste it."

Xie Jianjia did not move her chopsticks, but looked at Zheng Yihong and asked seriously: "Uncle Zheng, will you handle this matter fairly and justly?"

Zheng Yihong paused while picking up the vegetables, put the lettuce into his bowl, put down his chopsticks, and looked at Xie Jianjia seriously.

"My organization and I will investigate this matter carefully. If the materials provided by your godfather are confirmed and there are no mistakes, I will deal with it impartially and will not let a bad person go or shield anyone."

Zheng Yihong's firm eyes and solemn expression reminded Xie Jianjia of Mr. Zheng who had a severe waist sprain and was unable to move in the hospital bed. The old man had served as a soldier and fought against Japanese soldiers, and he was a good soldier.

She believed in Mr. Zheng and decided to trust Zheng Yihong in front of her.

"Uncle Zheng, there are more than a dozen photos. They are on the big glass table in Grandpa Zheng's house. I put them there. You can lift the glass and turn over the photos to see them."

Hearing this, Zheng Yihong first showed a slightly surprised expression, then shook his head and smiled.

"You little girl still have a hand for me."

Xie Jianjia denied: "Placing these photos at my place cannot guarantee [-]% safety, so I found a relatively safe place..."

Zheng Yihong picked up a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus rice cake with clean, unused chopsticks and placed it in Xie Jianjia's bowl, with admiration in his tone.

"What a smart girl!"
