As soon as Ji Luo arrived home, Li Jiaojiao reported with a smile: "Ji Luo, I have another order for you."

"Jiaojiao, you have good social connections."

Ji Luogang bought a bag of oranges on the road and gave one to everyone. He asked her with a smile on his face: "Which unit are they from?"

"He Jie ordered it. His sister gave birth to a baby last month and is hosting a full-moon celebration tomorrow. Her parents' side has to prepare red eggs and sugar buns. He learned that you were making buns for sale and asked you to order a hundred of them dipped in red sugar. Bag."

He Jie is their high school classmate and now works at a grain station. We talked about him last night at the teacher's class reunion.

Seeing that the red-dipped sugar packets were ready, Ji Luo smiled and said, "Okay, I'll send them over now."

While his classmates were taking care of business, Ji Luo also wrapped some meat buns in oil paper, got some leek and egg pancakes as a return gift, and hurried to deliver the goods while carrying two heavy baskets alone.

"Ji Luo, long time no see."

He Jie worked as an accountant at a grain station. When he heard his old classmate bringing something over, he ran out with a smile. He was a little surprised when he saw her: "Ji Luo, you have changed a lot. You are more beautiful than before."

"You are more energetic and handsome than before."

He Jie used to be a casual student when he was studying, but now he has a job that is a guaranteed job, he dresses quite formally, and his energy is indeed different from before.

Being praised by the school belle, He Jie kept grinning: "I heard Li Jiaojiao tell you about you, and you seem to be doing well now."

"Well, I completely got rid of the past and started a new life. I'm living a good life now."

Ji Luo gave him the two baskets with a bright smile: "The sugar packets you asked for are ready. The oil paper packets contain meat buns and leek egg pancakes. They are still warm. I give them to you to try."

"You're so polite." He Jie accepted it generously.

"Why are you so polite? I have to thank you for taking care of business."

Ji Luo said as he took out a piece of paper from his pocket with his home address written on it and invited him: "He Jie, we had a gathering with the teacher last night, and I invited her and other classmates to come to my house to play on Sunday. If you are free, come over and play, I will make dumplings and braised vegetables for you to eat."

"I heard from Li Jiaojiao that the food you cook tastes good. I will be there on time on Sunday." He Jie readily agreed.

It was working time, and He Jie was rushing back to the office to work. The two of them didn't chat much, they just exchanged a few words and he went back with two baskets.

Ji Luo left on his bicycle and saw two familiar figures before he had gone far.

"Why are they here?"

Even if Tao Lan and Ji Meini, mother and daughter, turned into ashes, Ji Luo would not be mistaken. She immediately rode her bicycle and turned to a corner to hide.

Seeing Tao Lan look back in the direction of the grain station several times, covering her face and talking to Ji Meni, Ji Luo suddenly remembered that Tao Lan's relative's wife worked at the grain station, and whispered in a low voice: "Are you here to find relatives at the grain station?"

Tao Lan and her daughter stood there and talked for half a minute. They did not go to the grain station, but went in the opposite direction.

Ji Luo waited for them to walk a certain distance, then slowly followed them on her bicycle. When they arrived at the family area a mile away, she locked her bicycle and parked it in a nearby bicycle shed, and followed them secretly.

"Uncle Sui."

Tao Lan went to the front to find someone to inquire about. Ji Meni walked behind with an irritated look on her face. Unexpectedly, she turned around and saw Sui Jiangbo opening the door and coming out.

"Meini, why are you here?" Sui Jiangbo pretended to be surprised.

In fact, he just saw Tao Lan and her daughter in the house. He had originally wanted to find someone to contact them in the village, but he was delayed due to something at hand. Seeing that they came over again, he went out to see them.

"Uncle Sui, why didn't you tell us that you moved? We've been looking for you for a long time." Ji Meni was coquettish and rude at home, but she acted coquettishly in front of him.

"Minnie, something happened recently. We also moved here temporarily. We have lived here for less than half a month and we haven't had time to inform you yet."

Sui Jiangbo looked friendly and asked, "Did you find this place? Did you come alone?"

"I came here with my mother, who went to the front to find someone to inquire about." Ji Meini pointed to the alley in front.

"Minnie, go and call your mother over."

Sui Jiangbo pointed to the alley behind and said: "Two hundred meters further from this road, there is a small square. I will wait for you at the bulletin board. I have something good to tell you, mother and daughter."

When she heard something good happened, Ji Meini's eyes lit up and she was very excited: "Okay, Uncle Sui, I'll call my mother right now."

Watching her leave, the smile on Sui Jiangbo's face slowly faded. He did not wait for them where he was. He nodded towards the room without leaving a trace, and then walked away.

Ji Luo, who was hiding in the dark, happened to see Sui Jiangbo's face and the change in his expression just now. He was very sure that his kindness and kindness to Ji Meini just now was just an act. Now he was particularly curious about his true relationship with Tao Lan. He immediately After looking at the direction, he took a shortcut and ran to the small square he mentioned.

It was a coincidence that the small square bulletin board Sui Jiangbo mentioned was next to a wall, and Ji Luo hid behind the wall before he came over.

Sui Jiangbo waited for about two minutes, and Tao Lan and her daughter came running over with smiles on their faces. From a distance, Jimini called out affectionately: "Uncle Sui."

Sui Jiangbo nodded, his seemingly gentle but cold eyes fell on Tao Lan, and asked: "What's wrong with you? Why is your face swollen like this?"

Tao Lan's face was a little stiff and she didn't tell the truth. She told a little lie: "I woke up at night and fell on the doorstep."

Sui Jiangbo could tell at a glance that she had lied. The injuries on her face were obviously from being beaten. Based on his understanding of Tao Lan, it was most likely that they were caused by herself. Since she would not tell the truth, he would be much less lazy. Ask about it.

"Uncle Sui, you just said you had something good to tell us. What good thing was it?" Jiminei didn't want to say anything about her mother being beaten. She couldn't wait to know what the good thing was.

Tao Lan was also a little anxious and asked quickly: "Have you arranged a job for Mei Ni?"

"There are no work arrangements. It's not convenient for me to arrange work now."

As soon as he said this, Tao Lan frowned: "What does it mean that it is inconvenient to arrange work? You promised to arrange work for Mei Ni before, but why have you changed your mind now?"

Sui Jiangbo was very dissatisfied when he saw her opening his mouth to question her. Ji Meni was also unhappy. She said with a face: "Mom, please listen to what Uncle Sui has to say first."

Tao Lan also realized it now. Sui Jiangbo lost his job. Now he had no rights. It was really not easy to arrange work. He quarreled and said to Sui Jiangbo: "I heard about you. , your job now..."

"My job has changed, and I'm waiting for transfer. I may be transferred to the city next month." Sui Jiangbo didn't want them to know the current situation, so he casually prevaricated her.

Upon hearing that he had not been suspended, but was just transferred, the expression on Tao Lan's face changed obviously, showing a bit of flattery and happiness: "I knew it was your former neighbor who was talking nonsense. You must be fine at work, even here. If you're suspended, your father-in-law's family will definitely help you find a way to rearrange your job."

Sui Jiangbo twitched the corners of his hypocritical lips without explaining much, acquiescing to her guess.
