Chapter 153 Negotiation
Chapter 153 Negotiation
Jiang Yu was very unhappy and went back to his room angrily with the meat.
Xiong Lijin and Fu Biao looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders. They were indeed feeling aggrieved.
Jiang Yu killed three wild boars. If they had sneaked into the mountains and killed them, they could have made at least a few hundred yuan on the black market. But now? They could only get 3 taels of meat...
Tsk tsk tsk, this is the bad thing about collectivism, capable people suffer a lot.
Jiang Yu slammed the door shut, then took out a meat bun from the space and ate it in a few bites, then gulped down a few mouthfuls of water. After eating, he felt much better.
After it got dark outside, Jiang Yu listened to the sounds nearby and made sure that there was no one around before he sneaked out, climbed over the wall from the backyard, and went up the mountain to look for Yi Chi.
Yi Chi was burning wormwood around the wooden house to reduce the number of mosquitoes in the room. Living near a reservoir to get water was indeed convenient, but the large number of mosquitoes was also a big problem. A healthy person could be bitten and swollen.
Jiang Yu came over with a lunch box containing two big meat buns and two leek and egg buns, to change Yi Chi's taste.
"You're here." Yi Chi greeted him with a smile on his face.
He waited for a long time yesterday and wanted to go down the mountain to find Jiang Yu to see if she was injured. However, when he was halfway down, he saw from afar that the lights in Jiang Yu's room were off. He guessed that she must be tired and went to bed early, so he had to turn back.
Jiang Yu was not seen during the day. Fu Biao said that she went to the hospital to replace Chen Jinghan. Yi Chi felt that she should be fine, otherwise she would not be so busy regardless of her health.
Now seeing her appear in high spirits, I know that she is fine and I feel relieved.
Jiang Yu rolled his eyes at his bright smile and asked, "You weren't at home when the wild boar came down the mountain?"
"No, I went to the back mountain to set a trap." Yi Chi shook his head. It was because of this that he managed to escape the disaster. Otherwise, this place would be the only way for the wild boar to go down the mountain, and he would have been chased for a while.
Jiang Yu nodded and said, "You're lucky. Here." Then he handed over the lunch box.
Yi Chi took the lunch box, and the smile on his face became even brighter. "What is it?"
"Baozi, I changed my meal to a different restaurant today. Their customers said the buns were delicious, so I bought some back." Jiang Yu still had 8 buns in her space. She bought all of them, confusing the waiter. She curiously asked her if she could finish so many.
It's so funny. If I hadn't already had dinner, I would have been able to finish all these buns and ginger fish by myself.
However, in order to keep a low profile, Jiang Yu replied that he brought it for a friend.
The waitress had an approving expression, as if to show that you have good taste. "Once you have tasted it, you will know the cooking skills of our Master Xu. It has to be this! Remember to come again next time." She gave a thumbs up, very proud.
Yi Chi took the lunch box back to the house, put the buns in a large ceramic bowl, and then filled a wooden basin with water and put the bowl in it, so that it could be stored overnight and would be just right for eating the next morning. He quickly washed the lunch box and placed it upside down on a plate to drain.
"Has Tuanzi not come recently?" Jiang Yu walked into the house. She had a keen nose and knew there was no smell left by Tuanzi in the wooden house. Only the fragrance was secretly emanating from the wooden beams that were wrapped in a mess.
Yi Chi shook his head and replied, "It is very busy in the summer and rarely comes down the mountain." It comes here in the winter to use the kang.
Jiang Yu nodded his head and found that all his books were gone, leaving only a tattered quilt. He looked around the room again and found that many things had not been taken out. It seemed like a while had passed since he came back. "What are you doing?"
"The old lady from the Liang family has been hanging around my house recently." Liang Shugen died, and now an old lady from the Liang family has come. Old Man Liang also kept his eyes on Yi Chi. This family really has something wrong with their brains.
"My goodness, the younger one is beaten and now the older one is here. But with her legs and feet, can she go up the mountain?" Jiang Yu had seen the old lady of the Liang family several times. It was always that person who came to Zhuang Shouren to ask for his son, crying and looking so pitiful.
"Then you haven't seen this old lady who is still strong and healthy." Yi Chi looked unfriendly, but then he thought, they had already killed Liang Shugen, and if they dealt with the old lady of the Liang family, it would be like cutting the grass at its roots. Regardless of whether it was necessary or not, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
Jiang Yu finally figured it out after struggling for so long. If a person doesn't work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. No matter what, he should first ensure that his own interests are not infringed, right?
So this time he was more decisive than Yi Chi. If the old lady of the Liang family insisted that it was Yi Chi who was killed, then he would just create an accident and get rid of him.
Although she was not sure whether she could do it well, she thought it was to send the old lady of the Liang family down to reunite with the family. If she comforted herself that she was doing a good deed, it seemed that her psychological burden was lightened a lot.
But killing is only the last resort, so let’s focus on the present.
She was the one who did the finishing work at that time, and she was confident that not a single trace would be left. So even if the old lady of the Liang family targeted Yi Chi to death, she could only make trouble and annoy people. After a long time, the villagers would only say that their family was endless and was trying to pull out the only child of the Yi family.
"Are you going to get rid of old lady Liang as well?" As long as Liang Shugen's body is not found, old lady Liang will not rest in peace.
Yi Chi shook his head. He had other plans. If Liang Shugen had not been knocked unconscious by Jiang Yu before, he would not be missing in the next accident. Although some changes have happened now, it is not difficult to replace Liang Shugen with the old lady of the Liang family.
Seeing that he was silent, Jiang Yu wondered in her heart whether he was being soft-hearted because he saw her as old.
Yi Chi saw her looking at him inexplicably, puzzled, "What's wrong?"
"Don't you find it annoying?" Jiang Yu didn't understand. Although she reminded herself that it was a peaceful time with law enforcement agencies and she should be a good law-abiding young person, sometimes she would be annoyed if she waited until the state came to deal with some people.
For example, when she attacked and stole things at night, didn't she know that her behavior was fundamentally wrong? She knew it, but she got angry when she saw those people living a carefree life while Yi Chi was alone. She felt that she might be hating the rich, not being chivalrous. She just felt that those people didn't deserve such a good life.
As for whether he was worthy or not, Jiang Yu was too lazy to think about it. He had already done it, so he could steal it back if he had the guts!
And Yi Chi has been monitored and followed by the Liang family for many years. How can they tolerate this?
Yi Chi looked at Jiang Yu with gentle eyes, "It's very annoying, so I'm trying to find a way to solve it. You don't have to worry that I will suffer. I remember everything the villagers did to me."
What else could Jiang Yu say? She could only remind him, "If you need help, just tell me." Although she had no other skills, she felt that no one in the village was faster than her at digging holes.
"Okay~" Yi Chi's heart softened and he was extremely happy.
This girl suddenly appeared in his life, and with her straightforward enthusiasm, she knocked open the door of his heart that had been closed due to fear and vigilance. From then on, she took root there, and continued to water her and shine in the sun, allowing her to thrive.
Jiang Yu is a good person. At least to Yi Chi, there is no one better than her in the world.
It's not because of family affection or interests. When she looks at herself, she seems to see something deeper. She is frank and direct. She never has any bad thoughts in her mind when interacting with others. Such people are really rare.
