When Lao Chen came out after the exam, he happened to receive a call from Yang Lan, asking him to go to the police station.
Lao Chen thought it was because he ran through a red light while riding a small electric donkey, but he found out after arriving that this was not the case.
In addition to Yang Lan, there were also two young men, one tall and one short. When they saw him, they looked pleading. Due to the presence of the police, they did not dare to speak.
At the same time, there was an acquaintance present, Ding Jiamin.
Lao Chen suddenly realized that he might have been robbed.
"How was the exam?" Ding Jiamin didn't ask about the matters of concern first, but asked about Lao Chen's exam.
Lao Chen said it was very good and I just happened to catch it.
"Do you know them two?" Ding Jiamin pointed to two people, one tall and one short, sitting in the corner.
Old Chen looked at Yang Lan. Yang Lan must have been asked, but he didn't know how she answered. The answers couldn't be inconsistent.
He thought for a moment and said, "I've met them twice, but I don't know their names or what they do."
Ding Jiamin nodded and continued to ask: "Someone called the police and said that they robbed your money this morning. We checked the local surveillance cameras and saw you entering the alley. Is this the case?"
Lao Chen thought it was true.
He looked at Yang Lan again, wondering what Yang Lan's answer was. Should he admit it or lie?
He actually felt that those two people were not bad in nature, but they did something wrong in the heat of the moment, just like they hit someone and ran away.
The two men, one tall and one short, looked here nervously, and the pleading look in their eyes became even stronger.
Before Lao Chen came, they had been educated about the seriousness of the matter at the police station. It seemed that they were just blocking the way of Lao Chen and Yang Lan, but the nature was robbery and the sentence was heavy. They were frightened.
This is not as simple as hitting someone and running away.
If Lao Chen nodded, they might be sentenced to jail and have a lifelong stain on their files.
"It's a misunderstanding, they didn't rob..." Lao Chen said.
Although Ding Jiamin didn't quite believe Chen Yungui's words, he and Yang Lan were surprisingly consistent. Since the parties involved didn't identify them, the police station had no reason to arrest them.
"You can go. You are lucky this time. If you do something wrong again next time, you should consider the consequences first. You are young, so don't make mistakes." Ding Jiamin warned.
The two said yes and left the police station. They met Lao Chen and Yang Lan at the door, expressing their extreme gratitude.
Lao Chen also said the same thing as Ding Jiamin, and the two said they would change their ways and never do anything impulsive again.
"By the way, how was your exam?" The short man got into the back seat of the electric car and was about to leave. Suddenly he remembered Lao Chen's exam and turned around to ask.
"Very good." Lao Chen said.
"That's good, I wish you find a good job."
"I also wish you a good job."
After watching them go away, Lao Chen and Yang Lan looked at each other.
"How can you excuse them?" Lao Chen asked.
Yang Lan smiled and said, "You're right, they are not bad in nature. If they hadn't sent you to the examination room, you wouldn't have been able to catch up. Give them another chance, they are still so young. When will the examination results be out?"
"In three working days."
…
Ding Jiamin stood in front of the window, watching the four people leave one after another, and shook her head. Of course she could tell that Lao Chen and Yang Lan were talking to those two people. The surveillance video of what happened in the alley in the morning was very clear, and those two people were talking to each other.
Lao Chen searched him and took away the money, but when he left later, he returned part of the money to Lao Chen.
Because he couldn't hear the sound, Ding Jiamin couldn't guess the specific content, but he could make a rough guess.
However, since neither Lao Chen nor Yang Lan were willing to press charges, she thought that those two people might still be saved. During their brief contact, she also felt that those two people were not vicious people.
It looked bright in the morning, but in the afternoon, suddenly dark clouds covered the city, thunder and lightning struck, and a thunderstorm washed over Pujiang City.
Today is a relatively leisurely day. Apart from dealing with Lao Chen's case in the morning, there is nothing else to do. It can be regarded as a day of leisure in a busy day.
Ding Jiamin looked at the time. It was already past four in the afternoon. She subconsciously prepared to go to the kindergarten to pick up Xiaomi. She picked up her bag and was suddenly stunned. Then she remembered that Xiaomi was in elementary school now and school ended at half past five.
It has been more than a week since elementary school started. Xiaomi is full of excitement and novelty these days, and is full of curiosity about everything around him. Yes, a child who has just graduated from kindergarten to elementary school faces everything that is so different.
, it’s normal to feel novel.
The phone on the table rang twice, and there was a text message. When I opened it, I saw it was from Zhang Tan, saying that he would pick up Xiaobai and Xiaomi in the afternoon and let Xiaomi come to his house for dinner in the evening.
Ding Jiamin replied "Okay, thank you" and had dinner with her boyfriend Chen Shanming in the evening.
Zhang Tan went out to pick up Xiaobai before school. He met two silly children at the gate of Little Red Horse. Xi'er held Xiaonian and stood in front of the iron gate outside the yard. He looked at him and laughed hiahily. He was wearing yellow rain boots and swimming in the water.
There was jumping in the pit and there was a loud thumping sound.
Her sister Tan Jin'er caught up with her, and she ran away, jumped into the little red horse, and ran around in the yard. Hiahia couldn't stop laughing.
It took Tan Jin'er some time to catch her, drag her away in her hands, her little rain boots dragging on the ground, unable to get rid of her.
"Godfather, godfather, save Xi'er~"
Just as Zhang Tan was about to speak, Tan Jin'er said first, "No one can save you, I'm going to teach you a lesson."
Zhang Tan could only show a helpless look towards Xi'er, and then drove out to pick up Xiaobai and Xiaomi.
"Come to my place for dinner tonight, and Xiaonian will come with you."
Just when Tan Jin'er was about to say no, Xi'er had already said, "Okay~ Goodbye, godfather!"
The thunderstorm has come to an end, but it is still raining lightly. There are patches of sunset on the horizon, and the vegetation in the city is new.
Zhang Tan drove to school to pick up Xiaobai and Xiaomi. The light rain stopped and the lights started to turn on, but the sunset had not completely set yet. Miraculously, a rainbow appeared on the horizon.
Xiaobai and Xiaomi were lying on the car window, chattering excitedly.
When they returned to Little Red Horse, Xi'er was sitting in the corridor outside the classroom. Xiaonian was accompanying her. They looked at the entrance of the courtyard and saw Zhang Tan and Xiaobai Xiaomi appearing, waving excitedly.
"Why don't you play in the classroom?" Zhang Tan asked Xi'er.
"Humph!" Xi'er glanced inside.
Zhang Tan went to the classroom and saw Tan Jin'er, oh, maybe Xi'er stepped in a puddle and was scolded by Jin'er, and was sulking.
"Xiaobai, is it fun for primary school students?" Xi'er asked curiously.
Xiaobai smiled secretly: "Hoo ho ho, little friend, you know what you are doing."
She walked in with her schoolbag on her back, and Xi'er followed eagerly behind her, asking all kinds of questions, never forgetting about being a primary school student.
Seeing that they had all left, Xiaonian sat alone on a small stool, nervously holding on to his pants with his little hands, not daring to get up and follow them.
This was the first time she was invited to have dinner at Boss Zhang's house, but she was extremely nervous. No one called her, so she didn't dare to follow him. She sat on the small stool alone and fidgeted, which was extremely awkward.
Suddenly, Xiaomi, who had just disappeared at the door, came back, looked at her, stretched out her hand and said, "Come on, Xiaonian, I will take you to Boss Zhang's house for dinner."
Zhang Tan cooked dinner by himself in the afternoon. Because it was raining, he didn't go out, so he stayed at home to write the script. When he was tired from writing, he cooked a few dishes. He thought that he and Xiaobai wouldn't be able to finish the meal, so he called more
A few children.
"hiahia, sister, you are coming too." Although Xi'er was sulky with her sister, she still thought about her.
"I want you to say it!"
Tan Jin'er glanced at Zhang Tan and followed him. After entering the house, he took the initiative to go to the kitchen to help. However, the food had already been prepared. He just had to heat it in the pot and serve it to the table.
The two brought the food to the table, and a row of children stood in front of the table, watching eagerly as there were more and more dishes on the table.
"It smells so good~hiahia, I want to eat it." Xi'er couldn't help but say.
Xiaobai pulled her away and called everyone at the same time: "Wash your hands, let's go, wash your hands first."
After queuing up and washing their hands, everyone sat down at the table. Xi'er said it smelled good and tasted delicious.
Xiaomi nodded silently in agreement, and Xiaonian sat down obediently without saying a word, his face still very nervous.
Xiaobai was looking at each dish one by one, and suddenly said: "What a clear soup, isn't it watery?"
"Ah?" Zhang Tan was stunned and asked uncertainly, "You said the clear soup has too little water?"
Xiaobai nodded.
"No, there are so many dishes, including meat, fish, and your favorite chestnut chicken. Why is the soup so thin and watery?"
"No chili peppers."
"...eat less chili pepper."
Tan Jin'er also said: "It's delicious without chili pepper. If you don't believe me, try it."
Xi'er nodded and told Xiaobai seriously: "Yes, my sister is right, eat less chili pepper, your butt will hurt."
Tan Jin'er glanced at Tan Xier's little friend, looking a bit like a flatterer.
Xi'er was trying to please her sister. She was really beaten when she was beaten, and she was really sulky when she was sulking, but the sulking only lasted less than a minute. She had already recovered, and she loved her sister again.
Zhang Tan's cooking skills have improved rapidly. He has been practicing his cooking skills since he lived with Xiaobai. He used to order takeout or go out to restaurants, but now he rarely does. He usually eats at home and buys food and cooks it himself.
When you are alone, you can be casual, but now that you have a newbie, you can no longer be casual.
Xiaobai had some objections to the lack of chili peppers, but after trying a few dishes, she no longer minded and ate so much. Chestnut chicken was her favorite, tied with Bangbang chicken.
After enjoying the meal, the children sang songs. In fact, it was mainly Xiaobai and Xier who sang, while Xiaomi and Xiaonian could only smile shyly.
Xi'er finished singing a song and it was Xiaobai's turn.
Xiaobai sang:
You are the tinkling cat in heaven
I'm an underground bastard
You are spinning in the sky
I'm chasing you underground
Jia Sufen, my dearest Jia Sufen~yo~~
…
This is a Sichuan dialect song. It was the first time for everyone to hear it and they were all stunned.
