The weather was slightly cool at night, but the two people lying in the house found it difficult to fall asleep.
Time passed bit by bit, Jiang Qiu still maintained his sideways posture, but his eyes were closed as he looked at Jiang Qinglian.
The sound of shallow breathing was right next to Jiang Qinglian's ear, making her feel a little unnatural.
I have never been so close to a man.
It was close to zero o'clock, Jiang Qinglian turned slightly sideways, looking at Jiang Qiu's face that seemed to be sleeping soundly, she couldn't help but smile.
When two people lie together like this, it seems...it feels pretty good.
If in the future my husband can be as handsome and good-natured as A Qiu, then I will be satisfied.
Thinking like this, Jiang Qinglian was about to close her eyes, but found that Jiang Qiu, who looked like she was sleeping just now, slowly sat up, looking sneaky.
Jiang Qinglian was startled and hurriedly kept her current position without moving, and pretended to be asleep.
Jiang Qiu was sitting on the edge of the bed, looking back at Jiang Qinglian's peaceful and beautiful face, feeling warm in her heart.
"Don't worry, sister, I, Jiang Qiu, swear that I will not let you suffer the slightest injustice in the future."
After whispering to himself, Jiang Qiu stretched out his hand to gather some of the scattered hair on Jiang Qinglian's forehead, and then left the room quietly.
After he left, Jiang Qinglian opened her mist-filled eyes, feeling calm for a long time.
…………
Today, as usual, Jiang Qiu once again put a lot of effort into sowing all the crop seeds at home and ripening them.
If this house full of vegetables and fruits were sold at the previous price of two hundred and one kilograms, I would probably get hundreds of thousands of dollars!
This money is a veritable huge sum of money in a small mountain village! Only wealthy families can afford it!
Jiang Qiu fell asleep happily on his straw mat.
The rooster crowed countless times the next day, but none of the three people in the house showed any signs of waking up.
Jiang Qiu had been busy most of the night and needed to rest.
The other two women also suffered from insomnia for most of the night and wished they could sleep until noon.
But there is always no shortage of things that disturb your clear dreams.
Bang bang bang!
A rapid and powerful knock on the door resounded throughout the house.
The wooden door, which was almost rotten, was crumbling, as if the person knocking on the door wanted to tear the entire door down.
Jiang Qiu rubbed his sleepy eyes and said loudly and unhappily.
"Who!"
At this time, a loud roar came from outside the door.
"Jiang Qiu! Open the door quickly! The village chief convened the village committee yesterday evening. Everyone unanimously suspects that you have an improper source of money! Come out and cooperate with the investigation!"
Jiang Qiu frowned fiercely!
It’s Zhang Youfu again! It’s not over, right?
Squeak, the old door was opened, and outside the door was a tall man with a meticulous white shirt and white gloves on his hands, which was incompatible with the dilapidated small mountain village.
The sparse hair on the top of her head was pulled back tightly by the hairspray, quite like a Hong Kong movie.
When this person saw Jiang Qiu appear, he looked at the gold-rimmed glasses that had taken off the paint on his nose with an expressionless face and said coldly.
"Did you hear what I just said clearly? The more than 10,000 yuan in cash you left at the village chief's house yesterday was suspected by everyone to have come from some shady activities."
"So, today, on behalf of all the villagers, I will check the source of your funds. If there is something wrong... Huh! It's best not to let me find out! Otherwise..."
By the end of the sentence, the man's eyes had narrowed, giving people a very dangerous feeling.
And when he spoke, it was not difficult to see that there was a touch of pride and disdain between his eyebrows.
His name is Chen Delong, and he is a person sent by the town. He is currently the only one in the mountain village who claims to be knowledgeable. The village leader Zhang Youfu is the director of the village committee, and he is the deputy director. They wear the same pair of pants.
On weekdays, when facing the villagers in the village, Chen Delong always looks condescending because he looks down on these poor villagers.
He looked down on even college students like Jiang Qiu who came back from big cities.
He felt that Jiang Qiu must have returned to his hometown because he was not capable enough and could not survive in a big city. What future could such a person have?
Therefore, in his opinion, since he was so majestic now, a waste like Jiang Qiu would greet him respectfully after hearing his words, and then ask with fear on his face what happened.
Thinking like this, Chen Delong couldn't help but raise his head again and tried to look at Jiang Qiu through his nostrils. Unfortunately, Jiang Qiu was too high, so he had to give up.
Looking at Chen Delong who looked like a proud rooster in front of him, Jiang Qiu couldn't help but wonder.
"No...who are you?"
Just five words, Chen Delong's momentum suddenly dropped. With the corner of his mouth twitching wildly, Chen Delong's eyes widened and he asked in disbelief.
"You do not know who I am!?"
Jiang Qiu was even more confused.
What? Should you know?
"Are you famous?"
Another critical sentence made Chen Delong tremble with anger on the spot!
He had maintained his pride for more than ten years, but he was completely beaten to pieces by a young boy with just a few words!
What the hell! Who in the entire village doesn’t know his name, Chen Delong? No matter whose home he goes to conduct an inspection, everyone greets him respectfully.
I'm afraid that if he makes a note in the notebook, it will affect the evaluation at the end of the year.
But Chen Delong obviously didn't expect that Jiang Qiu looked like he didn't know him at all! This was simply a humiliation to himself!
Chen Delong suppressed his anger, took a few deep breaths, and then solemnly introduced his identity, speaking even more highly of himself.
After listening to Chen Delong's self-introduction, which was like a short essay, Jiang Qiu could hardly open his eyes.
This was how my Chinese teacher taught me when I was a kid, and the hypnotic effect was amazing.
"Okay, okay, I know who you are."
"What are you doing here so early in the morning?"
Jiang Qiu's flat tone made Chen Delong feel that he was being ignored, and his teeth clenched.
After explaining his purpose of coming again, Chen Delong said in a deep voice.
"Okay, now come with me and explain in front of the whole village the origin of the more than 10,000 yuan!"
"Otherwise, we have reason to suspect that you have made some improper transaction!"
No matter in terms of family conditions or work, Jiang Qiu and Jiang Qinglian would not be able to come up with more than 10,000 yuan in cash.
Jiang Qiu sneered, his expression full of relief.
The old man Zhang Youfu is really haunted! One move after another!
However, this time he was destined to be kicked on the iron plate. The more than 10,000 yuan he took out did not come from any shady activities.
It's money earned from selling vegetables. It's decent money.
This kind of thing can be found out by asking Zheng Xuedong from the Century Restaurant in the city!
Therefore, Jiang Qiu is not afraid of slanting shadows when he is upright!
"Wait a minute, I'll brush my teeth."
After saying that, Jiang Qiu turned back with a calm expression.
At this time, Chen Delong's face was already filled with anger.
"Jiang Qiu! Be more serious! Do you dare to make me wait for you!?"
