After saving Bai Yueguang's substitute

【Today's love temperature: 94℃】

Xu Zhinian was probably busy, so he replied to me after a while.

Zhinian: I am memorizing the criminal law [crying].

A photo followed, of the textbooks on his desk.

875

I couldn't help being surprised: it's so thick, you have to carry it?

Zhinian: Of course not.

Zhinian: Of course it is not enough to rely on rote memorization alone. It is necessary to understand and master according to the case.

Regarding the law, I have only paid attention to the relevant content of the financial law. It can be said that I know nothing about the criminal law, and I have no way to talk about it.

After thinking about it, I sent Xu Zhinian "Come on".

876

Zhinian: Is Mr. Jiang still at the wedding?

Yes I am?

Zhinian: How about it, is the wedding fun?

Me: Not fun, I find it boring.

Zhinian: Why?

He seemed surprised.

Me: there is no reason why.

877

Zhinian: I think weddings are fun.When I was a child, my grandma took me to a wedding, and there were a lot of delicious food there, which I had never eaten before.

Zhinian: Some people give out wedding candy, but everyone has it.The bride is a very gentle big sister, dressed so beautifully, seeing that I am a child, she even stuffed me with a red envelope.

Zhinian: There is a full 100 yuan! ! !

878

He used three exclamation points for emphasis.

I looked at the huge sum of one hundred and couldn't help but want to laugh.

879

Me: I have never received any red envelopes at weddings.

Zhinian: That was when I was a child!Definitely can't get it now.

Me: Not when I was a child.

Zhinian: Huh?how come?

880

"Jiang Mingyi."

I was about to reply when a cold voice suddenly sounded above my head.

I restrained the expression on my face and looked up.

It's my uncle, Yan Shisheng.

881

He frowned, his expression was a little serious, and there was not much warmth in his eyes when he looked at me.

It seemed that the person in front of him was not his own nephew, but more like a stranger.

Yan Shisheng said: "I haven't seen you for so many years, I almost don't recognize you. Just now I thought it was my eyesight and I recognized the wrong person."

I bent the corner of my lower lip dispensably, and said, "It's been a long time, uncle."

882

My mother's surname is Yan, and the Yan family is in politics, and they have connections in the province and even higher up.

The Jiang family married the Yan family back then, so they had more or less the idea of ​​connecting with the officialdom.

It's a pity that not long after this marriage, the Yan family was on the wrong team in a major incident, and their vitality was seriously injured, so they had to choose to go dormant.

883

I don't know many relatives of the Yan family, and Yan Shisheng is one of them.

He and my mother are siblings. I heard that he loved my sister very much since he was a child. When he knew that she was not doing well in Jiang's house, he came to the door twice to make trouble.ァ78Chineseヤ~⑧~1~ωωω.7~8z~w.còм<First release, domain name, please remember

884

After my mother went crazy, the relationship between Jiang's family and Yan's family became tense.

The Yan family accused my father of driving my mother crazy, and my father said that my mother had a history of mental illness, and it was the Yan family who concealed it and cheated the marriage.

In the end, the two families broke up unhappy, and I became the most embarrassing person in the middle.

885

Yan Shisheng asked me: "It's been a long time since I saw you, how can I have a chat with my uncle?"

I nodded, got up and took two steps out with him.

"The last time I saw you, it seemed that you were not so tall." Yan Shisheng said, "It happened a few years ago, right?"

I said calmly, "It was when Grandpa passed away."

Yan Shisheng nodded: "I haven't seen you since then, and I don't come here during the holidays. You are so cold-hearted, brat."

I said, "It's not that I don't come, it's that the Yan family doesn't want to see me."

Yan Shisheng frowned and wanted to say something, but he didn't say it in the end.

886

I lowered my eyes and remembered the past.

Before my grandfather passed away, I went to see him for the last time.

People who used to be all-powerful in the officialdom are now very old, which makes people sigh.

At that time, my grandfather took my hand and asked me very slowly if I would like to leave the Jiang family.

He said, as long as I am willing to sever ties with the Jiang family, the Yan family can accept me as a grandson and treat me like a child of their own.

I thought about it for a long time, and finally looked into his eyes seriously and firmly, and said "no".

887

Grandpa looked at me for the last time, mixed with deep disappointment.

After he passed away, I was not welcomed by anyone in the Yan family either.

But I don't regret it.

I know very firmly what I am doing and what I want to do in the future.

888

Yan Shisheng and I were blowing the cold wind outside for a while, and I wrapped my coat tightly.

Yan Shisheng took a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, lit one himself, and handed me another: "How about?"

I took it.

Yan Shisheng said: "That's right, little brat, you've learned to smoke."

I said lightly: "I know it a long time ago, I didn't learn it in the past two years."

Yan Shisheng was stunned for a moment before saying, "Why don't I know."

I said, "There are still many things you don't know."

889

Even in small talk, Yan Shisheng stood up straight.

He seemed to be used to such a posture, and there was a compelling sharpness on his body.

As an adult, Yan Shisheng did not join the government agencies like other Yan family members, but went to the army.

After the grandfather passed away, the Yan family's situation became even more difficult.

At this time, Yan Shisheng retired from the army and entered the public security system, which gave the Yan family a big sigh of relief.

890

Yan Shisheng said: "You are very promising now, and my dad probably would not have imagined it back then."

I smiled and didn't speak.

Most of the Jiang family's property is now in my hands, and Yan Shisheng is now the undisputed leader of the Yan family.

I don't know if he came to me simply to reminisce about the old days, or if there was some other meaning.

At least from his calm expression, I can't see anything.

891

"The bride is the daughter of a friend of mine." Yan Shisheng lit another cigarette and said, "I watched her grow up and regarded her as my half daughter."

I said, "No wonder you're here today."

Yan Shisheng asked me, "What about you?"

I said, "The groom is my friend."

Yan Shisheng was stunned for a moment, and then smiled mockingly: "That's quite a fate."

892

Yan Shisheng's addiction to smoking seems to be a little bigger than I imagined.

While I was still smoking the first one, he had only one butt left on his second cigarette.

He snuffed out the last of the flames, and the cigarette butts were thrown into a nearby trash can.

"I've seen this kind of wedding a lot." Yan Shisheng seemed to recall something from the past, his eyes were in a trance for a moment, and said, "Staying inside is very uncomfortable, and I feel much better when I come out to take a breath."

893

I chatted with him for a long time, but in the end I didn't find out anything.

When we went back, Yan Shisheng suddenly lowered his voice, and asked me coldly: "Won't she come to you when I dream back at midnight, the property of the Jiang family that was obtained by stepping on your mother's bones?"

I looked back at him calmly, and said: "This is something that belongs to me. If I hand it over to others, she will die with regret."

894

When I returned to the lobby, my complexion might not be very good, Shi Jiazhi asked me what was wrong.

I said, "Just now, I went out to blow a cold wind for a while, and it's a bit freezing."

Shi Jiazhi just laughed at me: "It's such a cold day, what's the point of running outside?"

I ignored him and looked down at my phone again.

895

Zhinian: Mr. Jiang?

Zhinian: Are you busy with something?

Zhinian: Then I will continue to memorize the criminal law.

Zhinian: Let's chat after Mr. Jiang is done!

896

My mood improved a lot, and my hands were red from the cold, and I typed slowly to reply to him.

Me: Sorry, I just met an acquaintance and chatted for a while.

Me: It's over now.

Zhinian: Oh oh!

Me: Back so fast, you have been waiting for me?

Zhinian: It's just... I'm endorsing. I put my mobile phone next to me, and I hear the voice immediately when there is news.

me: ah.

897

I waited for a long time, but I didn't wait for Xu Zhinian's reply. Instead, the screen of the phone went dark because it hadn't been operated for a long time.

I couldn't help but start to wonder if the "hmm" was too short and boring for him to know what to reply.

Just as he was debating whether to say anything more, the phone vibrated.

I looked down.

898

Xu Zhinian sent me a red envelope.

One hundred dollars.

890

[WeChat red envelope: Gong Xi Fa Cai, good luck]

[You received Zhinian's red envelope. 】

I:?

Zhinian: Didn't Mr. Jiang say that he never received a red envelope at a wedding?

Zhinian: Received it now.

I:……

891

Me: Today is not your wedding.

Zhinian: ...don't pay attention to these details.

I am a little dumbfounded.

To be honest, I just casually mentioned something to him, and I didn't really worry about the hundreds of dollars in red envelopes.

But his kindness made me feel much better.

892

Zhinian: Is Mr. Jiang in a better mood now?

I froze for a moment, then asked him: How do you know I'm in a bad mood?

Zhinian: I don't know, I just feel that Mr. Jiang's mood seems to be a little low.

Me: That's why you sent a red envelope to comfort me?

Zhinian: A mere 100 yuan, if it can make Mr. Jiang feel better, wouldn't it be very profitable.

893

I looked at the phone, and the corners of my lips raised unconsciously.

Me: I feel better, thank you.

Zhinian: That's right. Participating in a wedding is to be happy.

My heart was touched suddenly.

894

Me: Every year.

Zhinian:?

Zhinian: Why are you calling me so suddenly?

Me: Do you remember the question I asked you last time?

Zhinian: ...

Zhinian: I remember.

Me: Then after you finish the final exam, tell me the answer, okay?

895

After a long time, Xu Zhinian replied "Yes".

I hold the phone, thinking casually.

I seem to be a little bit.

can not wait anymore.
