Volume 4: Beginning of Spring Chapter 46 Trust
Tang Butian turned around and looked at Guan Qingtong.
Guan Qingtong took the cup and spun it half a circle. "I look like a retired aunt now. If you praise my husband or son a few times, I will be coaxed and lose my mind."
"I'm speaking from the heart," Jiang You folded his hands on the table and examined Guan Qingtong. "Sang Xu is dead, what about the others? Preserve their strength? Go underground? Plan for ten years?"
Guan Qingtong did not avoid Jiang You's gaze, "I believe in Zhuang Zekun."
Jiang You reached out and picked up the small blackboard. He stood up and walked to the door of the store and hung the blackboard up. "My colleagues from the department will come over to play in a while. I plan to do a trial run today. It happens to be the Waking of Insects..."
"Then I'll go back." Guan Qingtong glanced at the time. "It's past three o'clock. Mr. Li is about to get off work..."
"It's a rare opportunity to come here, so sit for a while and enjoy the flowers." Jiang You turned to look at Tang Butian and said, "How about we have a barbecue in the yard today? Let's go to the supermarket to buy a barbecue grill, food, seasonings, skewers, plastic gloves and so on?"
Without waiting for Tang Butian to answer, Jiang You said to Guan Qingtong, "Let's go buy some things. Can you please help me look after my son? He should be waking up soon..."
As he spoke, he walked up the stairs.
After the footsteps disappeared, Guan Qingtong heard the sound of the room door opening and closing.
She turned to look at Tang Butian.
Tang Butian lowered her head, holding the water cup with both hands. When she noticed Guan Qingtong looking at her, she raised her head.
An overly delicate and overly young face caught Guan Qingtong's eyes.
Guan Qingtong sighed softly, "Why bother?"
There was some doubt in Tang Butian's eyes.
"Wangshu, Yulan and Xiaowen, the three of them joined the Special Operations Department after me. They all called me Sister Qingtong, and I brought them up step by step," Guan Qingtong took a sip of water, "them, and Lao Zhuang. At that time, I wanted to give up. Lao Sang was already dead. If I continued to investigate, maybe more people would die. If they died, there would be nothing left."
Guan Qingtong looked towards the yard. "They said they would definitely avenge Old Sang and asked me to raise Xiao Nuo well. For Old Sang and for us, mother and son, they have completely sacrificed their lives for sixteen years . I will not be provoked by you."
"Lao Zhuang designed you to go down the mountain. I understand your resentment," Guan Qingtong once again looked into Tang Butian's eyes and said, "He has no selfish motives. Sometimes I also resent him. If he could compromise a little, if he..."
The footsteps sounded again.
Guan Qingtong shut her mouth.
Jiang You carried Jiang Mo downstairs.
Jiang You put Jiang Mo on the chair, "This is my son, Jiang Mo. Jiang Mo, call me Grandma Guan."
Jiang Mo looked at Guan Qingtong without saying anything.
"He is shy." Jiang You explained.
"You guys go shopping." Guan Qingtong said.
"Jiang Mo , you have to listen to grandma, understand?"
Jiang Mo pulled his hat down, covering most of his face.
Jiang You and Tang Butian took a taxi to the nearby Carrefour. After entering, they took the cart and asked the waiter where the grill was. After comparing the brands, prices and functions, Jiang You chose one with an electric rotating grill. After taking the grill, grill set and charcoal, Jiang You and Tang Butian walked to the food area.
Jiang You took out a bag of frozen chicken wings from the freezer and put them in the cart. "I think grilling is quite difficult. Yang Xuan will be fine. She is a professional. Do you think Guan Qingtong can do this?"
"Why do you want to keep Guan Qingtong here?"
"I don't want to sow discord between her and Su Wangshu and the others. I hope she can see the facts clearly. Trusting a person's character does not mean trusting his ability to do things." Jiang You walked to another freezer, pushed open the door, and took out a rack of lamb.
"Did you hear that?"
"You guys are talking in my shop, it's hard for me not to hear it, but it's hard for me not to hear it," Jiang You closed the door of the freezer and turned around. "The Special Operations Department is now split into two parts. Anyone would want to use this to cause trouble. Hu Yuefeng is not stupid. Zhuang Zekun will arrive in Tangjiang the day after tomorrow."
Jiang You pushed the cart forward slowly, "Get some beef brisket and pork belly, buy some vegetables, seasonings, some beer, and some snacks. What do you want to eat?"
"I just ate."
"Let's walk a little. I'll be hungry after digesting it. Guan Qingtong and Su Wangshu all have a problem. They only trust their own people and have a bit of paranoia. I haven't said anything yet, but I just tested her a little bit. Look, she's getting nervous, right?"
“We are outsiders.”
"Tang Butian, we are in the advantageous position now. Luo Chengyuan and Huang Hu, the leaders of the younger generation of Jinghu Society, are both dead, and the Goddess was sent to us as bait. It was the Special Operations Department under your leadership that created this situation, not Zhuang Zekun's Special Operations Department," Jiang You said in a rare serious tone, "Su Wangshu and the other two are now under your charge."
"I can't help it."
"Don't be silly. Our goals are the same as theirs. Don't let them slack off or cause you trouble just because they are disobedient and ugly. You will be exhausted in the end. After finally winning, you still have to clean up the mess of a bunch of people who are hard to kill. They won't admit defeat and will cause you a lot of trouble next time. You will be taken advantage of and the conflict will get deeper and deeper. It may affect your return to the mountain. You have to figure out who is the enemy and who is the friend, who to oppose and who to unite with. Be generous and relaxed. Let's get things done happily. Isn't it better to have less trouble? Those who pursue personal heroism are cannon fodder."
Jiang You paused for a moment and said, "We want Guan Nuo to rush to the front, and Guan Qingtong must fight for it. She is also a suitable glue for us and the former members of the Special Operations Department."
"When did you start thinking so much?"
"When I took the lamb chops just now, I wasn't actually thinking. I can't think about things. If I think about them, my head will hurt." Jiang You reached out and touched Tang Butian's head, then immediately retracted his hand. "How about you cut the meat for the team building this afternoon?"
"You are more suitable to be the head of the special operation department."
"That's terrible. I have a bad mentality. I get irritable when I'm stressed. Once I get irritable, he will help me solve the problem completely. I can't stop him."
"he?"
"My son." Jiang You smiled and walked towards the vegetable area.
He first walked to where the plastic bags were placed, and after tearing off five or six bags, he walked back and put eggplants, potatoes, green peppers and other things into the bags.
After loading, weigh.
Then they headed to the snack and drink area.
Jiang Mo held a piece of chalk in his hand and drew two strokes on the long table, and then the chalk broke.
He frowned.
Guan Qingtong sat opposite him and looked at him with a complicated expression.
