Volume 2 Cold Dew Chapter 33 Zodiac
I walked with Xue Bei on the Cultural Street and then went to Jumei Square.
When passing by a jewelry shop, Jiang You picked out a pure gold zodiac pendant and gave it to Xue Bei as a birthday gift.
When the salesperson asked if it was packaged.
Xue Bei looked at Jiang You and said, "Please bring it to me."
Jiang You picked up the necklace, stood behind Xue Bei, and put the necklace around his neck.
Push the braids aside.
His fingers touched her skin.
Under the warm light of the mall, the fur on the back of the neck was coated with a layer of light golden light.
Xue Bei waited quietly, and she heard him say, "Okay."
The salesperson placed the mirror in front of Xue Bei and said, "You have a good temperament and can suppress the gold color."
Xue Bei looked at Jiang You.
Jiang You said: "It looks very nice."
She reached out and touched the golden pendant.
"Let's go."
"Want to watch a movie?"
"What movies are there?"
They walked towards the elevator.
Jiang You took out his phone and searched for it. "At this time, there is a special effects action movie and a romance movie that looks pretty good."
"A romance movie."
"Then I'll buy the ticket."
Jiang You slept for an hour and a half during the two-hour movie. Xue Bei finally shed tears when the movie was almost over.
She rejected Jiang You's proposal to have dinner together.
They stood at the entrance of Cultural Street.
The taxi I ordered has arrived.
"I'm leaving," she said.
Then she suddenly hugged Jiang You, walked quickly towards the taxi, opened the door, got in, and closed the door.
The yellow taxi quickly blended into the traffic.
Jiang You raised his head and let out a breath.
Turn around and walk back to the bug house.
He went upstairs and opened the door of the second bedroom. Jiang Mo had woven a hammock with spider silk. He lay on the hammock, swaying while watching the video.
Jiang You walked to the bed, took off his shoes and lay down.
Jiang Mo turned and looked at him.
"You have a bed, can you lend me this one to lie down for a while?"
A game controller hit Jiang You's chest.
Jiang You took the controller in his hand and said, "How about we play a game of Candy Crush?"
Jiang You lay up to make himself more comfortable. "It's OK to play Gobang. Didn't you like Gobang before?"
The spider silk hit Jiang You's face.
"Okay, okay, we can play whatever you want, but I have to make it clear to you, I 'm an old man, I faint when blood falls, and my heart isn't very good either. I can't play games that involve headshots and killing people."
More spider silk covered his face.
In the end, he played games with Jiang Mo all night long.
After mixing up his day and night schedule, he spent a lot of time adjusting his daily routine.
On the day the construction team came, he finally got up at 10 o'clock with difficulty.
The foreman's name is Lu Bin.
He has a yellowish face and a plump figure.
He took the construction drawings, compared them with the drawings and walked around the yard. Then he said, "So we'll do it according to the construction drawings?"
"Okay. How many days will it take?"
"It's quite complicated. It will probably take at least half a month."
Jiang You thought for a moment and said, "The contract says it's 13 days, so it's okay to extend it by a few days. After all, we have to take rainy days into consideration."
"So I'll start doing it?"
"Do you see that tree?"
Lu Bin followed Jiang You's line of sight.
"I specifically wrote this tree into the contract. If it loses leaves or gets its bark broken, you will have to pay me."
"Well, it's almost winter, the leaves will definitely fall off."
"It means don't touch it." Jiang You emphasized.
"I see. Before the construction starts, I'll build a fence to enclose it. Is that ok?"
"OK."
After watching Engineer Lu and his construction team build a fence around the camphor tree, Jiang You called Jiang Mo downstairs, locked the door, and took him to Wenfeng Park to feed the pigeons.
I bought two bags of bird food at the entrance to the green space.
He leaned on the railing and threw bird food far away. A few white pigeons flew down and pecked at the food.
After eating, it flapped its wings and flew to the roof.
Everything was fine except that it smelled a bit like bird poop.
The two bags of bird food were quickly thrown away.
After watching for a while, Jiang You carried Jiang Mo out and saw an old couple in front of him.
They also recognized Jiang You.
Jiang You quickened his pace and walked over, "Uncle Han, Aunt Zhang, are you here to visit the park?"
"That's right." Han Guoli said.
Zhang Li saw Jiang You and said, "Is this the child you adopted? You've raised him well."
"Yes, Jiang Mo, this is Grandpa Han and Grandma Zhang."
Jiang Mo looked at them and blinked.
"He looks a bit like you."
Jiang You laughed, "Their eyebrows and eyes are very similar, right?"
"Yes, especially the eyes. How old is he?"
"I'll be six next month."
“Then you can go to elementary school.”
They walked slowly along the tree-lined path.
"Our house is priced at 2.8 million, do you still want it?"
“It’s not sold.”
Zhang Li sighed, "You are Xiaonan's friend, and I won't hide it from you. I don't want to sell the house to my two brothers."
"Why?"
"We had not decided whether to retire in the United States or come back. My eldest brother told me that if I stay in China, my nephew will take care of us in our old age, and after we die, the house will be given to my nephew. I think this is fine, but Old Han disagrees ." Zhang Li glanced at Han Guoli.
"After all, nephews are not as reliable as children." Jiang You followed her words.
"Lao Han said the same thing. My mother passed away last year and I didn't get to see her for the last time. My salary card and Lao Han's were both with my eldest brother. When I came back, I found that all the money in them was used up. My mother's medical insurance was basically fully covered, so I asked my eldest brother how he spent the money. He said he hired two caregivers for my mother and also provided nutritional supplements."
They walked over to the bench and sat down.
"She used to always say how good her elder and second brothers were," Han Guoli said in a rough voice. "We can still walk now, and her nephews are still good to us. But when our wills are drawn up and we can't walk anymore, they'll send us to a nursing home. Wouldn't it be useless for us to cry out to the heavens and the earth?"
Zhang Li wiped her eyes and said, "I have a friend who lives in a nursing home. Every day when she eats, her meals are cold. There is a long distance between the food and the room. There are several elderly people sleeping in one room, and there is only one caregiver..."
Jiang You put the minced ginger down.
Jiang Mo took a few steps forward, walked to the bush and pulled the leaves.
"If it's 2.8 million, it's OK."
Han Guoli opened his mouth and closed it again.
Zhang Li spoke up, "Xiao Jiang, after the formalities are completed, can you help us transfer some US dollars to my daughter's account?"
"That's fine, but when are you going back? The house purchase procedure is not that quick."
Han Guoli and Zhang Li looked at each other and said, "December 5th."
"Do you have a trustworthy agent? We can't finish the procedures in 5 days if we do it ourselves."
Han Guoli shook his head.
"Then I'll ask an agent I'm familiar with to come. I'll pay the agency fees, so you don't have to worry."
Zhang Li looked at Jiang You and said, "Thank you so much."
