Reborn Soul: Me and My Family

Chapter 519 Emergency Contact Point

Since her elder brother didn't come home, Ouyang Qing secretly guessed that he might have left early because of something.

She had asked him to bring some food back, but now she could only find a way on her own and picked out some specialties from Beijing.

I also ordered two pieces of winter clothes with nice patterns and sent them together. Ouyang Qing only found out about this after he came back.

It turned out that half a month before she came back, the two aunts had sent her a lot of mountain products. It was a give-and-take thing, so Ouyang Qing would return such a valuable gift.

These shops at home were opened before their school holidays. In addition to the clothing store, there are two spicy hot pot restaurants.

They are also opened on different main streets! Thanks to the cold weather, everyone likes to eat something hot.

The business was booming right after it opened. This was what Ouyang Qing heard from the two elders at home after he returned home.

She went to see it herself out of boredom at home. How can I describe it? The spicy hotpot restaurant was packed with people.

Fortunately, a few days after the opening, the two sisters-in-law realized that they were too busy to handle the business, so they hired three women to help out. One was responsible for washing dishes, and the other was responsible for cleaning the dishes.

The other two washed the vegetables and cut the knives, while the two sisters-in-law were responsible for blanching the vegetables and settling the bill. Since someone was helping, Ouyang Qing did not plan to go in.

Instead, he went to Xiang Xiaoqing's pastry shop.

Before the pastry shop opened, the old couple was worried that the taste of food in Beijing would be slightly different from that in Jiangsu Province.

I'm afraid not many people would buy them, but their dim sum is so delicious that many people who have tried it once will not want to buy it again within a few days.

Some people come here alone, and some even bring their family, friends or colleagues with them.

The two shops were on the same street and the distance between them was not far. In just a few minutes, Ouyang Qing arrived at the dim sum shop.

The interior decoration is a combination of Chinese and Western styles. The counters for snacks are all in Chinese style.

It looks unique, and the wonderful thing is that the place where the cakes are made is all covered with transparent glass.

The simplicity and cleanliness allow every customer who comes to buy cakes to see the entire process of cake making through the glass.

After standing at the door for less than 5 minutes, Ouyang Qing saw five or six people go in, buy cakes and leave with the oil-paper bags.

After observing for a while, Ouyang Qing walked in slowly. As soon as he walked in, he saw Xiang Xiaoqing wearing a white uniform.

The white pastry chef hat wrapped her hair, and behind her was a separate compartment for making pastries.

The glass effectively isolates the dust from outside. It is very pleasing to the eye just by looking at it, and the whole production process is clear at a glance.

Hygiene has been taken to the extreme, so that every customer who comes can feel at ease knowing that the food is safe to eat.

After collecting the money, he lowered his head to Xiaoqing, his hands busy placing the freshly baked snacks on the tray.

Ouyang Qing stopped and walked forward without saying anything, which made Xiang Xiaoqing think that someone else came in to buy snacks.

"Hello, may I ask..." The unfinished words got stuck in his throat, and then he smiled at Xiaoqing.

"Qingqing, how come you have time to come here? Go sit in the backyard quickly. I will be out soon."

After saying that, he seemed to remember something and continued, "Oh! I am really stupid. Come over here and take a look.

There are two new dim sum dishes. Is there anything else you want to eat? "

Sisters being too enthusiastic is also a burden, so Ouyang Qing quickly stopped her and said, "Okay, I just came to see you.

I won't dare to come next time if you do this. Okay, I won't joke with you. Just try these two together."

She pointed at the two new products she had just mentioned, then pointed in the direction of the backyard and went straight to the backyard.

Before coming back, she searched the space and found several books about baking.

These books were bought when she was in Country M. If she hadn't sorted out the space a few days ago, she would have almost forgotten them.

The backyard of the shop is a small courtyard, which is kept very clean and tidy. Since the shop opened,

The old couple simply moved here. They were not the only ones who did this. After they were able to start a business,

Most of the shops around here have been rented out, and there are families living in the backyards of these shops. In addition, the local police are very dedicated.

Every morning and evening, he would come to inspect at irregular intervals. There was a reception room in the courtyard, where Xiang Xiaoqing went to the furniture factory.

I bought a large European-style sofa and even went to a department store to get two large blankets to put on top.

Usually only people who were familiar with each other would come to the backyard. Less than two minutes after she sat down, Xiang Xiaoqing came over with two plates of snacks.

"Try it quickly. This is a new product invented by my grandparents. Most people who have bought it will buy it again."

Under her expectant gaze, Ouyang Qing picked up the snack and took a small bite. It tasted very delicate and sweet.

"It's delicious, with just the right amount of sweetness. The crispy outer layer has a unique bean fragrance. By the way, this is the book I asked someone to find for me.

See if it helps you.”

Xiang Xiaoqing took it and opened it in surprise. When she saw the detailed baking steps inside, she almost screamed out loud.

"Wow... Qingqing, thank you. I will make sure to watch it carefully. When I finish making it, I will treat you to a bite first."

It's no wonder she's so happy. You know, the cakes above are only sold in foreign exchange stores for the time being.

If she could learn it, her dim sum shop would become famous. After all, it would be the first in Beijing.

"Then I'll be waiting. If you need any raw materials, you can contact me. Aiden now goes back and forth to Hong Kong every month."

Understanding the meaning of her words, Xiang Xiaoqing nodded repeatedly.

After spending an afternoon in the dim sum shop, Ouyang Qing planned to go home. Unlike this time last year, most of the shops on the street were open.

As she was walking home leisurely, she unexpectedly saw a special sign on the corner of the street. Ouyang Qing's heart trembled.

This was a sign from Uncle De looking for her. Normally, Uncle De would not take the initiative to contact her, not to mention that business was allowed now.

Uncle De's business gradually got back on track, and the transactions between them were limited to the provision of live poultry.

After checking the time on his wrist, Ouyang Qing turned around and walked towards another place.

I found a secluded alley, sent out my mind to make sure there was no one around, and then I slipped into the space to change clothes and put on makeup in one go.

A quarter of an hour later when I went out again, an old woman riding a bicycle appeared on the small road in the alley.

Uncle De's home was far from where she lived. It took about 20 minutes to get there by bike. The weather was cold and there were few pedestrians on the road.

While Ouyang Qing was pedaling hard, she was still wondering why Uncle De was looking for her.

When she was riding her bike past the entrance of an alley, she saw a group of old ladies chatting under a tree nearby.

One of the old ladies accidentally looked up and saw an old lady about her age riding a bicycle.

She only felt that the bicycle under the old sister's feet was about to be kicked out of the sparks, the old lady just thought she was dazzled.

He rubbed his eyes in disbelief, and after confirming that he was not mistaken, he pointed at the figure riding a bicycle passing by the entrance of the alley and exclaimed,

"Look! That old lady is so nimble."

The conversation stopped abruptly after hearing this. The old ladies looked in the direction she pointed, and saw only a man with gray hair.

Seeing the figures of people riding with hunched backs, looking at the agility of others and then looking at their own performance, the old ladies' self-confidence was severely hit.

The thin, dark old lady No. 1 said, "How come his legs are so agile?"

Number 2, a plump old lady, "Look at that waist of hers. How come she has no problem riding a bike?"

The tall and thin old lady number three: "Comparing yourself to others is really frustrating. I cleaned up the house yesterday and my waist hurt all night."

Seeing the old sisters say this, several old ladies began to talk about it again. Ouyang Qing was completely unaware.

The sight of her riding a bicycle aroused the envy of a group of little old ladies.

Uncle De lived in a relatively secluded place, surrounded by courtyards. According to his memory from the last time he came here, Ouyang Qing took many turns and arrived at the gate of a courtyard.

I knocked on the door of the lower courtyard, and it was quickly opened. "Auntie Jiao, you are finally here. Come into the courtyard and talk."

Ouyang Qing didn't hesitate and let him take the bicycle. He then went to the yard. After he closed the gate, he asked,

"I went to Yangcheng a few days ago and just came back yesterday. Is there anything important that A-Guang and De-ge want to talk to me about?"

Ah Guang hesitated for a few seconds before changing the subject and saying, "Uncle De is at home.

You should go in first and let Uncle De talk to you in person!"

Seeing that he couldn't get anything out of the question, Ouyang Qing could only give up. He should know the answer soon anyway, "Okay then, I'll go in first."

Since it was not his first time coming back, Ouyang Qing went straight to the study. Halfway there, he met A Biao who was walking towards the front yard.

Seeing her, A Biao was overjoyed, "Auntie, you are finally here, please come in."

God knows that when Uncle De received the news that one of his subordinates had died a few days ago, he got really angry.

After much inquiry, I learned that the brother's death was related to an old item that he had given to Uncle De two years ago.

The man was extremely cruel, and when he couldn't get any information out of the man, he tortured the brother to death, truly living up to his oath that he would rather die than betray Uncle De.

The two of them moved quickly and came to the small courtyard where the study was located. Ah Biao knocked on the door three times and then pushed it open and walked in.

"Uncle De, it's Auntie who's here."

The person in the room paused while flipping through the book, then stood up immediately, his voice mixed with anxiety and a hint of worry.

"Big sister, you are finally here, please take a seat!"

"Brother De, you called me over so urgently, is there something urgent? I asked A Guang just now but he refused to say anything."

It’s not Ouyang Qing’s fault, because besides A Guang, A Biao and Uncle De are the same.

After she sat down, Uncle De told her what happened some time ago. He heard that someone had died and the killer was still looking for the dragon-shaped jade token.

Ouyang Qing's heart sank. Who could be so cruel? Let's not talk about the secret of the jade token. It seems that I can't say more.

That person must have received some news, otherwise he wouldn't have caused such a big commotion by killing someone.

"That's the thing. I guess that person won't give up until he gets what he wants. I've already told my brothers,

Your affairs will not be spread out. The reason why I am in such a hurry to find you is to let you be prepared in advance."

At the end, Uncle De reminded us again and again because that brother's death was so tragic.

"Thank you, Brother De, for treating me as your own. I would like to thank you very much. Please rest assured, brothers, I will resolve this matter as soon as possible."

As early as the beginning of the discovery of this secret, Ouyang Qing planned to hand it in, but he did not expect that it would cost a life.

If that person betrayed Uncle De and revealed his information, he could save his life with the space, but what about his family?

To be honest, after working together for so long, Uncle De has always believed that there must be a powerful backer behind Aunt Jiao.

The main reason is that ordinary people don’t get so many good things, so when Uncle De heard her promise, he didn’t have any doubts at all.

"Okay, as long as you know what's going on. By the way, Uncle De, I went to Guangzhou this time and got a lot of good stuff. I wonder if you are interested."

Not to mention Uncle De, even A Biao who was standing next to him had his eyes shining.

"Thank you for your concern, sister. Please rest assured about the price as usual." Uncle De was overjoyed and felt that today was a good day.

He also sells goods from Yangcheng, but the transportation problem has not been solved yet. The goods in the hands of the elder sister are different.

Not only is the quantity larger, but there are also fewer risks on the road.

"I'm not in a hurry about this. I want to ask the brother who left if he has any relatives at home. If so,

Please help me send a token of my appreciation.”

"Then I will take care of that brother and thank the elder sister. To be honest, I am the only son, and I have parents at home, but they are both old.

My health is not very good, but my little brother would rather die than betray me, so as long as I live, his parents' second half of life and afterlife will be taken care of.

I will help with it.”

Taking out a sum of money suddenly would inevitably arouse suspicion, so before leaving, Ouyang Qing agreed with Uncle De that when the goods were delivered in the evening,

After bringing the money over, Ouyang Qing went straight home after finishing everything.

After dinner, since it was still early for the agreed delivery time, Ouyang Qing went straight to the phone.

She thought about it all the way and felt that it would be better to deal with this matter as soon as possible. After all, Uncle De's subordinates were not all of them.

They will all be like that brother. Who knows when that person will come to Uncle De or themselves. Instead of hanging a knife over their heads,

It would be better to take the initiative to resolve this matter and see if Big Brother can find a way to find that person and bring him to justice.

At this time, Ouyang Bai didn't know that his younger sister was afraid that he would not be promoted due to lack of merit, so she tried to make him do something meritorious.

How long has it been since then? He has already been rewarded with another great achievement.

Ouyang Qing thought about it and finally decided to find a random reason.

First, trick her elder brother back, and then confess his mistakes honestly when the other person arrives in Beijing.
