Chapter 403
"Mom, I'll go too."
"I also need to go."
"Mom, can I...can you come with me?"
Cheng Li and Xu Hui stood up, and even Xiao Nuan came forward.
Cheng Qiao smiled slightly and said in a very gentle but firm voice: "I live here with my grandpa. I am not allowed to go out privately. I must be accompanied by an adult. And Xu Hui, take care of yourself."
Xu Hui nodded helplessly. Cheng Li felt uncomfortable, but he also made sure his younger brothers and sisters would listen to their mother's words, and also warned Li Huan and Cheng Qiao to be careful.
Everyone watched the three people leave. He Fei's eyes were blurred with tears, Xiao Gui clenched his hands into fists, Cheng Li's eyes were full of worry, and Li Ming was even more anxious, circling around the room.
Cheng Liguo and Ye Jun looked at each other. The storm was coming, and it seemed like they should be ready. Thinking of this, they followed Ye Chengying to the study room in unison.
"Let's go, grandma will take you to eat dumplings. Xu Hui, you will help carry two bowls of dumplings in later."
Mother Li felt uneasy, but she tried her best to control her inner fear and pulled Li Le towards the kitchen. Zhao Hui glanced at his wife and daughter, and they nodded slightly and followed into the kitchen.
When Xu Hui entered the study with the cooked dumplings, a strong smell of smoke hit his face, making his nose itchy and his throat felt uncomfortable.
But he pressed his tongue against the base of his upper gums. When there was fluid in his mouth, and then he swallowed, the dryness in his throat subsided a little:
"Grandpas, it's time to eat dumplings. My grandma said there are coins in the first bowl of dumplings in the New Year. Whoever eats them will definitely have good luck this year."
The three of them became energetic and ate the dumplings carefully. As a result, Cheng Liguo was the first to eat the coin, Ye Jun was the second, and Ye Chengying was a little anxious, but finally got the coin in the last dumpling.
"Hey, it's a bad year. Even this is the last one to eat. It seems that my strength is about to run out."
Ye Chengying's face was full of bitterness. Too many things had happened recently, which made him a little overwhelmed and his spirit became even more decadent.
Ye Jun couldn't bear to see his only cousin knocked down by these things. He stretched out his hand and a bamboo knife pill entered Ye Chengying's mouth.
"Um...what, I don't eat sweets."
As soon as he finished speaking, a cool breath rushed directly into Ye Chengying's mind, making his already groggy mind instantly clear.
"Cheng Qiao made it."
Ye Jun became even more worried when he saw that Ye Chengying said the word "Cheng Qiao" without even thinking about whether the elixir was made by him.
Disciple, Master can't hide it anymore. Who made you so capable? What you produce are all top-notch products. It seems that your trouble is really coming.
"This is Zhu Dao Wan, a good thing to concentrate your mind and nourish your energy, and make your brain clear."
"Good thing, really good thing. China is blessed to have sent us a real miracle doctor. Originally, the confidentiality work was done very well, but the spy came out and the news was leaked."
"Is Cheng Qiao in danger?"
"Not yet. I heard that Hu Sulu has already talked with Cheng Qiao. As for the terms of the negotiation, I don't know yet. No, I have to have first-hand information."
Ye Jun saw that Ye Chengying said that wind is like rain, and he also knew the importance of the matter, so he simply took out an extremely small porcelain vase and sent it over:
"Well, you go ahead. I'll give you a few bamboo sword pills to make you more courageous."
Ye Chengying took it with a wry smile and asked Dalin to drive him up the mountain. Normally, you couldn't go up the mountain at this time, except for emergencies.
The atmosphere in the originally bustling courtyard dropped because of a phone call. Mother Li and the children were worried about Cheng Qiao and Li Huan.
Li Huan and Ye Xiaolin were so anxious that they took turns driving day and night. They took a sip of hot water prepared by Cheng Qiao when they were thirsty and took a bite of pastries prepared by Cheng Qiao when they were hungry.
Ye Xiaolin saw Cheng Qiao taking out food and drink from the package from time to time, and even toilet paper for wiping his butt, and he already knew it. No wonder the special department sent out Hu Sloppy to protect Cheng Qiao, as expected.
But Ye Xiaolin pretended to know nothing, discussed what happened in Xiangyang Village with Li Huan, and quickly made several plans to prepare.
When they arrived at the entrance of Xiangyang Village, Secretary Hao and a group of people stood under the tree at the entrance of the village under the heavy snow, looking anxiously at the car that was slowing down.
"Secretary Hao, why are you here? Get in the car quickly."
Li Huan got out of the passenger car, grabbed Secretary Hao, and patted the snow off his body. Secretary Hao nodded, waved to those people, and got into Li Huan's car.
"Secretary Hao, this is Ye Chengying's youngest son Ye Xiaolin, here to cooperate with our investigation."
Secretary Hao nodded, but he had no hope in his heart. The comrades from the Public Security Bureau started investigating after receiving the news. Except for the smell of gasoline still in the air and the mess on the ground, no evidence was found.
The remaining footprints that were not covered by the snow were in a mess, with footprints stacked on top of each other in a mess, making it impossible to get started.
The car drove into the village along the main road. Secretary Hao once again saw the road paved with small gravels and nodded secretly with satisfaction.
Li Huan is very protective of his shortcomings. Because they have tractors in Xiangyang Village, they thought of repairing this road, but road repairing costs money.
He asked the commune to subsidize some and Zhao Hui to fund some to repair a main road in the village. Although the villagers in several other villages were dissatisfied, who could stop them from attracting sponsorship.
The car stopped at the door of Li Huan's house, and several people entered the house. Unexpectedly, the kang was already burned in the house. Needless to say, Aunt Wang must have been here.
Cheng Qiao went to the kitchen. All he had eaten on the road these two days was dry food. He needed to get some soup anyway. Besides, Secretary Hao had been waiting at the entrance of the village for who knows how long. Judging from the way he was shivering, he must have been cold to the bone.
There was still a large pot of hot water on the stove. Cheng Qiao first took out several basins to fill the hot water and brought it to the living room so that they could wash their hands and face first, and then soak their feet in hot water.
He speeded up the brewing of brown sugar and ginger tea, and also took out pork and white noodles from the space, preparing to cook a bowl of hot meat noodle soup for them.
When she was very busy, Aunt Wang came with a basket on her back. There were rice, noodles and some frozen meat in the basket. At first glance, it was obvious that it was good food that she was usually reluctant to eat.
"Qiao, you must be freezing. Come, let Auntie do it. You hide behind the stove and add firewood. It's hot over there."
"Hey, thank you, auntie. I bought the pork and it's almost ready. Please order a few bowls of noodles. The soup is so watery that I feel comfortable."
Aunt Wang quickly agreed and opened the lid of a pot on the side. A fragrant smell of meat rushed straight into her nose. Drool could not help but come out of her mouth, and her stomach growled a few times.
