Volume 4: Beginning of Spring Chapter 44: Cheating
Tang Butian was silent for a while. After a while, Jiang You heard her say, "Sun Yu is helping Zhao Cai lose weight."
"How did you lose weight?" Jiang You asked with interest.
"Change three meals a day to two, and take a walk at noon and in the evening."
"The move is too heavy. Last time I threw it, I almost sprained my wrist," Jiang You rubbed his wrist and walked back to the Arhat bed to sit down. "Come and play with my son more, and you will lose weight. Is this job deal settled, boss?"
"I feel very annoyed." A hint of emotion flashed in Tang Butian's eyes.
"I feel annoyed too." Jiang You agreed.
“It never ends.”
"that is."
"Can it be solved in two years?"
"It's unlikely. I haven't met Master Hu. His subordinates, the younger generation Huang Hu and Luo Chengyuan, are both good."
Tang Butian drank the half-cold tea in the cup in one gulp. "If we deal with Hu Yuefeng, will this matter be completely resolved?"
"You don't want to go to Yanjing with a knife and kill people, do you?"
Tang Butian looks at Jiang You.
"Let me chop? I just told you, I'm a civilian, I work in an office," Jiang You touched his belly, "Does someone like me look like someone who can fight? I can't even run 200 meters without getting out of breath. To do something this big, you need to have muscles all over your body, and you can climb a skyscraper in a tornado with your bare hands."
Tang Butian's gaze fell on Jiang Mo who was standing by the pond.
"It is illegal to employ child labor."
Jiang Mo seemed to notice Tang Butian's gaze. He turned around and walked towards them with a staggering step.
"Fragmented space, what I cut off are the rules. To be more precise, it is attached to the connection points within the rules."
“Very impressive.”
"This wooden sword is powerful," Tang Butian clenched the wooden sword in his hand, "It can cut off the connection between the gods and other illusory existences and the world of the living. It can kill gods, which is why I came down the mountain."
The door of the greenhouse opened automatically.
Jiang Mo walked in and came to Jiang You's feet. Jiang You picked him up and fed the last piece of small square cake into his mouth, "Look, he can't even walk steadily."
“But I can’t see the connection.”
Jiang You pushed up his glasses and said, "You can't just open your eyes and see..."
"The demons suppressed in the mountains." Tang Butian put forward the conditions.
Jiang Mo turned his head and looked at her. The Pikachu-shaped nightcap fell off.
"Can you make the decision?" Jiang You asked.
"Two or three."
Jiang You stroked Jiang Mo's hair and said, "It's just a snack."
"It's your problem too," Tang Butian stated the facts. "You are a member of the Special Operations Group. If this matter is not resolved, you will also have trouble."
Jiang You sighed, "That's right, Jinghuhui, this crappy organization, has made me miss several sleepless nights. It's a life-and-death feud."
He leaned his body towards Tang Butian's position and looked at her with a smile, "How about this, let Guan Nuo take the lead?"
"Guan Nuo?"
"He wants to avenge his father's death, so he certainly won't mind the trouble. He's young and has strong mobility..."
"He's too weak."
“Not weak anymore.”
Jiang Mo turned around and jumped off Jiang You's legs.
"Look, Zhuang Zekun has a good relationship with the people on the mountain now, right?" Jiang You coaxed him.
Tang Butian nodded slightly.
"Among the various sects in the martial arts world and the Buddhist sects, no one can defeat Hu Yuefeng?"
"Impossible." Tang Butian answered subconsciously.
"That's right. Whether he's a so-called god or has some other support, if you really want to kill him, just spend more money. The government must have developed a spiritual nuclear bomb rocket launcher or something like that. Just smash it into where he lives, cleanly and neatly..."
"A lot of people will die and there will be panic."
"So it is very difficult to peacefully divide the Jinghu Society." Jiang You concluded.
Tang Butian bit her lip and shook her head slightly, "So annoying."
"Guan Nuo got into trouble, and Zhuang Zekun will find a way to help him coordinate and make up for it. Since he really wants Guan Nuo to take over, let's give him a push and solve this problem as soon as possible so that you can return to the mountain. I can also sell my postcards in peace..."
"So you tricked him into meeting Huang Juan?"
Jiang You smiled kindly.
He said, "Lao Yin's next door is launching a new product, spring bamboo shoots and pork ribs noodle soup. It sounds delicious. Do you want to try it?"
"good."
"Are you going to have some light soy sauce?" Jiang You asked.
Jiang Mo turned around and threw the flower he picked at Jiang You. Jiang You reached out and grabbed it, crumpling it into a ball in his hand.

Guan Nuo walked into the office.
Su Wangshu and the other two sat together, seemingly discussing something.
Seeing Guan Nuo coming in, Su Wangshu asked, "Why are you here? Don't you have classes this afternoon?"
"Uncle Su, Uncle Zhu, Aunt Wu," Guan Nuo took off his backpack and put it on the table. "In the afternoon, there is a strategy class. The teacher doesn't call the roll very often." He paused. "Recently, has Huang Juan said anything else recently?"
Wu Yulan answered him, she said: "No, after Jiang You talked to her, her mood and her physical condition have not been very good."
"so……"
Sun Yu walked out of the small meeting room holding Zhao Cai.
Guan Nuo looked behind him.
Sun Yu said, "The section chief will also be going to school soon."
"Where is Brother Jiang?" Guan Nuo asked.
"Brother Jiang hasn't been here for a long time," Sun Yu closed the door of the small meeting room, "His shop is about to open, so he must be very busy recently."
"Your Uncle Zhuang will return to Tangjiang the day after tomorrow." Wu Yulan said.
Guan Nuo looked at her.
Wu Yulan stood up, walked to Guan Nuo, looked up at him, and said, "Whatever you want to know, I can definitely help you find out."

The spring bamboo shoots are crispy and tender, without any astringency.
Tang Butian took a bite of bamboo shoots and ate some noodles.
Yin Jie walked to their table and asked Jiang You, "Does this noodle taste okay?"
Jiang You spat out a bone and said, "It's quite good, but the price is."
"The ingredients are expensive, they are all ribs. I originally thought that since your place has opened for business, I would sell them there." Yin Jie glanced at Tang Butian, "You guys eat, I'm going to buy a cigarette outside. If someone comes in, ask him to wait for a while."
"Don't worry, go ahead." Jiang You said.
The noodles were soaked in the soup and became very soft, but they did not swell.
"Not doing catering anymore?"
Jiang You raised his head, took off his glasses, and wiped the fog off the lenses with a tissue while saying, "I did it. I managed to get the certificate last year..."
Tang Butian looked at him.
"Have you figured out the location?" Jiang You asked.
"Guan Qingtong calculated it several times, but the result was very vague. I will always follow Zhuang Zekun, and you."
"I can't run, let her come to my place and have some Coke. I'll cut two lemons and put them in. What do you think is a good price?" Jiang You continued to eat noodles with his head down, and said, "Or, if you are worried about confidentiality, you can rent my place for the meeting. We are all colleagues, I'll give you a discount."
"What do you want to do?" Tang Butian asked with doubt in his tone.
"Make money. Raise my son."
