Chapter 1 Debt(1/2)
After personally experiencing that underground adventure - Jiang Xueming got a leisurely long vacation.
This cold and slender man can no longer be seen in the braised food store at the entrance of Hung Hom Metro.
His store manager had made more than a dozen calls to him for work, but they were all stopped by the anti-harassment mode of the mobile phone.
At this point, he didn't plan to go back and pick up the life he once relied on.
The numbers on the bank card are like a series of pleasant spells, which gradually dissipates the sadness on people's faces on this day.
[Transfer: 3000000]
[Transferor: Paramen Entertainment Media Co., Ltd.]
[Remarks for Transfer: Happy Holidays]
[Balance: 7751550.79]
There was still a surplus of seven million in the account, which made him feel at ease and nervous.
The reason for being at ease is that this money can allow the two brothers and sisters to spend most of their lives in peace and quiet.
The reason for his panic is that he doesn't understand the code words hidden behind the boss's generous actions. Including the phrase "Happy Holiday" also makes him feel that there is something in his words.
When he was on the train, Xue Ming talked directly with the boss about this matter.
It was originally for the sake of the important matter of his sister's life that he would take the train to an unknown destination with the intention of being a silence.
Now Jiang Bailu is in good health and the family is not worried about food and clothing. He can't think of any reason to end the [holiday] specially approved by the station.
After receiving this payment message in the hospital, he took his sister Jiang Bailu back to the new house.
Since Xue Ming had no job, the two brothers and sisters started to stare at home, and there was nothing to do. Just the seventh brother who followed him wandered around the house.
Indeed - it is absolutely true to use the word wandering to describe it.
She was not as quiet as the two siblings, and she looked familiar. She didn't change her shoes after entering the door, and Xue Ming did not prepare slippers for Brother Qi.
She was walking barefoot in the living room and bedroom repeatedly, unable to rest at all, as if she had received professional demeanor training and had a steady pace - and then put on the red dress.
In the summer, the temperature in the house seemed to have been reduced by several degrees by this "female ghost" floating around.
Bai Lu bit her fingers, looking bored. She looked at her brother.
My brother is thinking about things, it’s hard to disturb me.
She looked at the strange sister Xiaoqi again.
Sister Xiaoqi was staring at the bed in the bedroom and giggled at the paperweight on the desk.
Below the paperweight is a photo of Brother Xueming when he was a child. It is very cute, but Sister Xiaoqi's expression is also quite scary.
——Just like Bai Lu's story when she was a child, she said that eating a child cat was evil and powerful.
She didn't dare to ask, but just sat beside Xue Ming obediently, waiting for Brother Xue Ming to finish everything.
When the sky darkened, it was time for dinner.
Jiang Xueming just got up and was about to prepare supper.
Brother Qi was already standing at the door of the refrigerator. She was like a hostess and said with a smile.
"Cooking? I'll help!"
Jiang Xueming didn't say anything, but just looked at Xiaoqi suspiciously.
Originally, the intention of letting Xiaoqi enter the door was just his last bit of decency. He thought - at least this woman had helped him at the station.
But now, Brother Qi seems to be ready to live at home.
There are only two beds in the room, and there is no extra room for Brother Qi to sleep with.
No matter how much Xue Ming said, he would be worried about letting Bai Lu and Brother Qi sleep together.
After all, this woman once joked with Bu Meilixing in front of him, half-true and half-false to commit poisoning and kidnapping. With the thinking mode of his life, it is difficult to understand the movement rules of these people.
God knows what Brother Qi will do in this family.
However, he is not such an inhumane guy.
In just a few seconds, Xue Ming's eyes changed, from being serious and vigilant to letting go of defense.
"good."
Xiaoqi: "What are you going to get?"
Jiang Xueming: "Thousands of bean skins, kale, pork bones and six corns, thank you."
Xiaoqi did as he did, and followed up quickly into the kitchen.
Jiang Xueming put an apron on himself and repeatedly wiped the knife.
He saw Xiaoqi throwing the ingredients on the kitchen counter again, spreading his arms, looking like he was waiting for the lover to tie the apron, and was full of anticipation, "I'm ready! I'm ready! Tie it for me!"
He wanted to throw another clean apron directly on Qi Ge's face, but he held it back.
He handed over the apron respectfully.
"Xiao Qi, you can wear it yourself."
"Um..." Brother Qi began to feel aggrieved when he heard these cold words. He looked unhappy when he looked down.
At this time, Jiang Bailu came out, she smoothed out the situation for this unconfused brother, and helped Xiaoqi tie the apron.
"Don't mind! My brother has always been like this... He is allergic to allergies..."
"Bai Lu." Jiang Xueming didn't want his sister to have any connection with these guests. This meal was a farewell wine, "You go out and wait."
"Okay." Jiang Bailu secretly grimaced at her brother.
Xueming brought the kitchen door with him, sorted out the ingredients, picked the pork bones, then chopped the corn, made soup over high heat, and then washed rice and cooked rice.
He had to ask casually: "What are the plans next?"
Xiaoqi watched from the side and helped Xueming wash vegetables.
"It's nothing, I just want to stay with you for a while..."
Jiang Xueming continued, "Don't you need to work?"
Xiao Qi dipped his hands in water, drained the vegetables, and the scraps that he didn't want fell into the trash can: "There are very few new customers at the station. My leader knew what I was doing, so he gave me a leave."
The minced meat on the bones was divided into two parts, one was thin and the other was fat, and was thrown to the other end of the cutting board. Jiang Xueming continued, "What? Live in my house? Are you not going to leave?"
"Is it OK?" Xiao Qi's eyes lit up, and his heart was also confused, throwing good and bad vegetables into the trash can.
Before the pick-up vegetable stems fell to the ground, Jiang Xueming grabbed them steadily and took them back into the dustpan.
Xue Ming said concisely: "No. I have no plans to share the rent."
"Are you afraid that I will bring the bad things underground to your house?" Xiao Qi changed his face. She glanced outside the door behind her, "Are you afraid that I will harm your sister?"
Hot oil falls into the bottom of the pot, and the fat meat is cooked in the pot with ginger and scallion base.
Xue Ming turned the spatula, waiting for the oil residue to turn golden, and then put the lean meat and Qianzhangs into the skin together.
The crackling sound of the pot and the roar of the range hood covered the two of them.
Jiang Bailu hid outside the door, her ears pressed against the door, and could not hear anything.
She rolled back to the sofa in disappointment, began to lower her head and rub the glass of her phone, thinking in her heart when her brother could bring her beautiful and rich sister-in-law back.
At this time, Jiang Xueming answered.
"You might as well ask me what I plan next."
Xiaoqi finished his work and had nothing to do. She stared at Xue Ming and asked, "What are your plans next?"
"Please finish this meal."
"Then what?"
"Then you drive home, I'm going to move and change places."
"Then what?"
"If you change the environment, it's best to settle her near Bailu School."
"Well...I can pick her up and drop her off to school."
"You don't need to pick her up, I'm very idle now. I can send her in person."
Xiaoqi: "Let's give it together!"
Jiang Xueming ignored this sentence and then said-
“—I want to go back to my hometown.”
"Do you want me to go back to see the parents together? I'm doing this!" Xiaoqi said enthusiastically: "What, what type of the two elders like? Are they purer or more vulgar? I heard A Xing say that your family is in the countryside and is a traditional family. Do you want to put something on your butt? It looks good to be raised."
Jiang Xueming covered his face and suddenly felt that it was a bit unfamiliar to talk about this day: "When you say this, it's like a rented girlfriend who came home during the Chinese New Year. Can we feel a little distance?"
"Sense of distance?" Xiaoqi smacked his lips, thought for a while, and then went to hide in the shower, "Is that what it means?"
"No..." Jiang Xueming felt powerless, "I mean, we have only known each other for a few days, aren't we very familiar with each other, right?"
