Zuo Jingyan felt someone staring at her and looked back twice. Lu Haoting asked her:
"What's wrong?"
Zuo Jingyan frowned:
"Feel like someone is watching me?"
Lu Haoting glanced sharply at the customers in the grocery store. Everyone in the room was busy buying vegetables and meat, and no one looked at them.
Lu Haoting stepped to the door. People were coming and going on the street, but he didn't find anyone suspicious.
Zuo Jingyan came over and called him:
"Maybe I'm too sensitive."
The two bought groceries and walked home. The woman hiding in the alley across the street breathed a sigh of relief. She thought the two had discovered her just now?
On the way, Lu Haoting told Zuo Jingyan the information obtained from interrogating Zhou Dayong:
"According to what he said, those two women deliberately let him hear that your shop is very profitable and you don't have a man at home. Have you offended any woman recently? The kind of woman who has a deep hatred, or is the other woman a villain?"
When Zuo Jingyan heard that it was not that simple, she answered honestly:
"I have offended many people!"
Lu Haoting looked at her and didn't know how to answer the question for a moment. He had offended not only one person, but several others?
Zuo Jingyan calmly analyzed:
"One is Li Aimei, the other is Wu Xiangyu, and then there is Liang Lamei, who has a haircut by Meijun. Li Aimei is a villain and can't get rid of her. Wu Xiangyu is very domineering and arrogant. Because my godmother and I sent her nephew to prison, she
Hate me so much.
Liang Lamei is just a short-tongued person, but she is not a bad person. The most likely person among these people is Wu Xiangyu. She has never suffered from someone who has suffered losses. She suffered losses twice in a row at the hands of me and her godmother, and because of being framed
If we are so embarrassed by her own sister that we dare not go out, I guess she would hate us in her heart."
Lu Haoting's face became serious and he nodded:
"Well, your analysis makes sense. Wu Xiangyu is indeed the most likely to do this. She has the biggest hatred against you."
He thought for a moment and said:
"I will ask Zhou Dayong to identify their voices and see which one of them it is? Also investigate what they were doing during that time period? Can anyone prove it?"
Zuo Jingyan glanced at him. She was really thinking carefully. Soldiers seemed to have specially trained their investigative techniques. Many professional soldiers went directly to the Public Security Bureau.
The two of them arrived home while they were talking, and saw Liang Chao squatting on the ground waiting for them with a pencil in his ear. It was hot and he was fanning himself by pulling on his clothes. He looked half like an old farmer and half like a cynical second-rate.
Zuo Jingyan called him:
"Brother Liang."
When Liang Chao saw them, he stood up from the ground and complained:
"Oh, what are you doing? I'm almost bald. How can I find a partner if I'm tanned?"
Zuo Jingyan smiled and said hurriedly:
"We didn't know you were coming. I'll buy you a bottle of soda."
Liang Chao was not polite and shouted at her:
"I want it iced, my dear, I almost got dried out in the sun."
Seeing Zuo Jingyan about to leave, Liang Chao shouted again:
"No, please open the door first and let me in. It's so sunny that I'm going to get sweaty."
Lu Haoting asked for the key from Zuo Jingyan, and looked at Liang Chao coldly:
"I'll open the door for you."
"Hey, no need, I'm already cool."
Liang Chao's scalp went numb when Lu Haoting looked at him. He rubbed his arms and refused. This guy went into the ice cellar with him - he was freezing to death.
Before Zuo Jingyan left, she told Liang Chao:
"Brother Liang, let's eat at my house for lunch. I bought fish."
He is here to make stools and barber mirrors, so he cannot be allowed to leave hungry at noon.
But when Zuo Jingyan came back from buying soda, she didn't see Liang Chao. She only saw Lu Haoting sweeping the floor at the door with a broom.
Zuo Jingyan asked quickly:
"Where's Brother Liang?"
Lu Haoting said calmly:
"He took the measurement and left."
"Did you do something to him?"
Zuo Jingyan looked at him suspiciously, something was wrong. Last time he shook hands, he almost crushed Liang Chao's hand. Could it be that he drove Liang Chao away?
Lu Haoting said expressionlessly:
"He said if you finish it earlier, your store can open sooner."
Zuo Jingyan couldn't get anything out of the question. She found out when she saw Liang Chao and handed a bottle of soda to Lu Haoting:
"Drink soda."
Lu Haoting took it, took a sip, and nodded:
“Very sweet.”
Zuo Jingyan glanced at him and handed Liang Chao's bottle to him:
"If it's sweet, drink more."
"good."
Lu Haoting nodded in agreement, took a few sips and drank it all.
Zuo Jingyan put the big carp she bought into the basin and used scissors to scrape the scales, and said to Lu Haoting:
"I also wanted to ask him about his visit to Liu Lanying's house yesterday, but I couldn't."
Lu Haoting looked for work on his own and went to check the broken head mold. When he heard Zuo Jingyan's words, he answered:
"It's useless to ask. Qin Feng said that Deputy Commander Liu won't let Liu Lanying find anyone outside the army."
Zuo Jingyan paused while scraping the fish, and lamented that Liang Chao was destined to always like people he couldn't get. She couldn't help but say something for Liang Chao:
"Actually, Liang Chao is quite good. He has a cheerful personality and can be funny. You won't have any trouble marrying him. He is very smart and dedicated. He learned sculpture by himself. Now he is partnering with me in the furniture business and makes a lot of money in a month.
If Liu Lanying marries him, the two of them will never fight in their lives."
Alarm bells rang in Lu Haoting's heart, let's just say, Liang Chao is a strong rival, look at how highly his wife thinks of him!
Zuo Jingyan spoke to herself for a long time. Without hearing Lu Haoting's response, she raised her head and glanced at him. Seeing that he was prepared, she didn't know which of her words was wrong?
It suddenly occurred to me that Lu Haoting had been back for two days and he hadn't mentioned the eight hundred yuan. He didn't mention it, and he didn't mention it either. Wasn't this because he wanted to default on the debt?
She quickly said:
"By the way, I have already saved eight hundred yuan. Give me the IOU and give you the money."
Lu Haoting's face became even tighter. When he gave him the money, was he trying to draw a clear line and prepare for divorce? He replied in a muffled voice:
"You are my wife, so the money should be given to you. You don't have to pay it back."
Zuo Jingyan refused:
"How about that? It's easy to borrow and pay back. We have agreed. If you don't want it, I will get the money for you right away."
Lu Haoting watched her go back to the back room to get money. They were obviously very good just now, buying groceries together and chatting together like an old couple. Why were things suddenly different?
Zuo Jingyan came out of the room and handed the eight hundred yuan to Lu Haoting:
"Thankfully you are back, otherwise Zhou Dayong would have robbed me of this money."
Lu Haoting looked at the pile of money and asked seriously:
"Do I have to pay it back?"
Zuo Jingyan nodded:
"Of course."
"good."
Lu Haoting took the money, turned around and left.
"Hey, you don't want to eat."
Zuo Jingyan didn't know what was wrong with him? She shouted at his back, but Lu Haoting didn't even look back:
"To do something important."
