Volume Three, Chapter 141: Reasons for Death (4200...
Chu Chengmu, who had no idea that he had been missed again, returned to the dormitory and found that Jiang Nini had taken a shower. She changed into a loose pajama and was squatting in front of the TV, staring at the images reflected on the TV screen.
This girl has the unopened game console on hand. It seems that she has been studying it for a while. It is only because Yan Shumo has not returned that she did not take it apart.
"Have you gone out?" Chu Chengmu noticed that the cement floor in the dormitory had been dragged by Jiang Nini. The tableware and other dishes she had eaten had been packed. So he stopped him and was about to step into the room. He changed his slippers at the door and asked Jiang Nini, who was still squatting in front of the TV.
"Well, I'm sweating on my body, and even the hair is covered with the smell of incense, candles, paper money. I went home while you and Shumo went out, and then brought some clothes over."
After dinner and taking another shower, Jiang Nini was in much better condition. When she saw Chu Chengmu enter the house, she looked like a little secretary. She took a few steps forward consciously, reached out to take the handbag and car keys that Chu Chengmu carried with her, and replied softly.
Yan Shumo changed his slippers, looked at the game console on the ground in front of the TV cabinet, went up and teared off the packaging on the game console a few times, then handed the box to Jiang Nini, and smiled and said, "You install the game console first, I'll take a shower, and I'll come out to play games with you later."
Jiang Nini nodded when she heard this, first put Chu Chengmu's handbag and other things on the coffee table, then reached out to take the game console, then squatted down again, and moved the big butt TV of Chu Chengmu's family down with some difficulty. Seeing that Chu Chengmu was about to come over to help, Jiang Nini hurriedly stopped him and said:
"The weather is too hot, so I made you a cup of chrysanthemum tea. Just go on the coffee table. You can take a break first. I'll do this little thing myself."
Chu Chengmu nodded when he heard this, and stopped being polite to Jiang Nini. He sat on the sofa, picked up the glass teacup on the coffee table and drank a sip. He turned his head and saw that Yan Shumo had already walked into the bathroom with his own home clothes and bath towels. Then he put down the teacup, took out his cell phone from his pocket, plugged in his headphones, and listened carefully.
Just now, Yan Shumo suddenly said something in his heart. Chu Chengmu had a sudden inspiration and turned on the recording function of his mobile phone. Although Yan Shumo's voice was not loud, the environment by the river was already very quiet. After wearing earplugs, he could clearly hear this short heart speech.
After taking off his earplugs, Chu Chengmu put away his phone again and looked up at the ceiling. If he had time tomorrow, he would still have to go and find the old man Yan. He could not ignore Jiang Nini's affairs, let alone his childhood friend? With Yan Shumo and his son's awkwardness, no one was in the middle, so the father and son could really be in a stalemate.
"Chu Chengmu!" Jiang Nini stuck out her buttocks and was busy in front of the TV cabinet. Seeing Chu Chengmu put down her cell phone, hesitated for a moment, and said.
"Hmm?" Chu Chengmu retracted his gaze that looked at the ceiling, looked at the girl not far away in front of him, and asked.
"After you went out, Qin Yi called me and she asked me if I know what happened to you recently?" Jiang Nini listened to the direction of the bathroom and found that Yan Shumo had not yet come out, and replied.
Chu Chengmu was stunned for a moment when he heard this. How could this little girl call Jiang Nini? If you want to ask, you should ask Yan Shumo? At the worst, you should ask Gou Dongci? Thinking of this, Chu Chengmu suddenly smiled strangely. This little girl seemed to have Gou Dongci's phone number, but Qin Yi should have Gou Dongci's phone number in his hand.
"What did you say?" Chu Chengmu picked up his cell phone again and looked at it, asking.
Jiang Nini plugged the data cable and other things in a few strokes, moved the big butt TV back to its original position, then picked up the remote control, adjusting the channel and signal at 1, and whispering to Chu Chengmu:
"I said I don't know. I left Luo Yanyun 1 and I haven't seen you again since then. I don't know what happened to you."
"I advise her to ask you directly if something happens. She said she would consider it. I don't know what she wants to consider. Although I don't know what happened between you, after all, how good you were before, everyone with eyes knows it, and they won't even dare to call each other on a phone call, right?"
When Chu Chengmu heard Jiang Nini say "I dare not", he suddenly realized that it was her attitude in the evening that scared the girl.
But without that attitude, what attitude should I use? Are I intimate? Or is I a stranger? Or am I angry? Hysterical? Apart from using this slightly unfamiliar tone, I don’t know how to talk to her.
Since you have to consider it, think about it! Everyone is very busy and tired in life. Just wait for when you have the courage to fight again, but it is unknown what kind of mood you will be at that time. Thinking of this, Chu Chengmu put away his phone again and decided not to worry about this little girl's affairs.
After Yan Shumo took a shower, Chu Chengmu also took his home clothes and bath towel to rinse for a while. When he came out of the shower, he found that Yan Shumo and Jiang Nini were sitting cross-legged on the sofa. One person had a game controller in his hand and was playing "Silent Hill 2".
Jiang Nini had fun with relish, and Yan Shumo, who was playing soy sauce, held a pillow, and was shocked by the endless horror plots in the game, almost buried his head on Jiang Nini's shoulders. However, Jiang Nini shook her shoulders with disgust and pushed Yan Shumo, who immediately leaned her head on her shoulders, to the side.
It seems that these two people are not calling! Chu Chengmu looked at their condition, picked up the bath towel and wiped their heads, and did not go over to say hello to them, so he went straight back to the master bedroom where Yan Shumo was sleeping. He was tired for another day today, and it was almost 10 o'clock. He was about to rest early. As for the two people in the living room, they should last as long as they can!
But Chu Chengmu had just lying down. Before he could turn on the alarm clock, his phone suddenly vibrated. He picked it up and looked at it. He found that it was a text message sent by Chang Weiwei. This girl was so late and still hadn't slept. I clicked on the text message and saw that the text message read: "Chu Chengmu, I just saw you and your friends by the river, but you two were burning paper, so I didn't bother you. I want to talk to you, is it convenient?"
Chu Chengmu sat up from the bed, found Chang Weiwei's phone number, and called.
"What's wrong if I don't sleep in the middle of the night? Is there anything wrong?" Chu Chengmu asked.
"Sorry, Chu Chengmu, I'm still disturbing you so late. That's the case. I might be going to work in that village the day after tomorrow. I want to meet your aunt before and have a chat in person. I'm not convenient for you?" Chang Weiwei's lowered voice came from the other end of the phone, with a little apology.
"Is it tomorrow?" Chu Chengmu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then continued to ask, "How long will it take for you to be there? Do you know in your heart?"
When Chang Weiwei heard this, she knew that Chu Chengmu was considering his own affairs, and she didn't care about lowering her voice and said:
"I originally planned to go through the formalities, and it only took about 1 or 2 years. If I can achieve results, it doesn't matter if I stay for one or two more years. With this score as a base, I can also take a lot of steps in between. If I count it, it saves time."
When Chu Chengmu heard this, he calculated in his heart that he originally planned to give the 1 million yuan that he had promised during the Chinese New Year at the end of the year. Since Chang Weiwei was about to go to work, it would be impossible to give her the second aunt in advance. After all, those cash crops can be planted half a year in advance, and they will also gain results six months in advance. It is more difficult for girls to go on a career path than boys.
Aunt 2 is essentially not as greedy as Meng Lao 4, and she is not as close as Meng Lao 4, grandmother and others. According to Chu Chengmu's memories of his previous life, she was the only 11 of the 5 siblings who were born by her grandparents when she was born, because her grandfather wanted a son at that time and she didn't like the birth of Meng Lao 2 very much.
On the night she was born, Meng Lao 2 was thrown into the bamboo forest behind the old house. It was still winter. That is, Lao Meng 1 hugged her in the wilderness to keep warm, and took off her clothes to cover her. 1 cried until the middle of the night, until she couldn't bear it, so she picked her back from the bamboo forest behind her hometown. If it weren't for Lao Meng at that time, Meng Lao 2 would have been gone as soon as she was born.
Maybe she couldn't keep up with all aspects of nutrition when she was a child, and she was frozen for half a night after she was born and had a high fever, so Meng Lao 2 was much stupider than other siblings, but her daughter was very smart. It probably wasn't a genetic problem.
Grandpa and grandma 1 always thought that Aunt 2 didn't know about this, but in fact, Mr. Meng learned about this from Mr. Meng very early. Over the years, she has always been resentful to these two old people and is also looking at her elder sister. However, the person she married was too bad, and her daughter was not afraid to turn against her family when she was using money.
After Lao Meng divorced in his previous life, Meng Lao 2 also protected her the most and often accompanied Lao Meng to tears. He also had a few fights with her because Meng Lao 4 said sarcastic words.
But at that time, Meng Lao 2 said a lot of bad things about Lao Chu in front of Chu Chengmu, and Chu Chengmu almost starved to death at that time, and he had no intention of caring about family affairs. In addition, after Meng Lao 2's daughter was promising, Meng Lao 2 also had the appearance of a poor man who was suddenly rich and straightened his chest and folded his belly, so Chu Chengmu couldn't like her.
As for this life, these things have not happened yet, and some things will never happen again. After careful thinking, Chu Chengmu will not bring back the malice of his previous life to the present. If anyone else in the Old Meng family deserves to show some kindness, it will be Meng Lao 2 and the heartless Meng Lao 5.
After thinking about it, Chu Chengmu rushed to Chang Weiwei and said, "This is how you can find a good place tomorrow and wait for my phone call. Then I will make an appointment with my auntie for you."
When Chang Weiwei heard this, he replied: "Okay, I have chosen a good place and sent you a text message. Then I won't disturb you from resting. Good night, Chu Chengmu!"
"Good night!"
After hanging up the phone, Chu Chengmu fell asleep in a deep sleep as he heard a thrilling sound effect from the living room.
In the early morning, Chu Chengmu was awakened by the uncontrollable crying sound. He picked up the watch from the bedside and looked at it. He found that it had just passed 6 o'clock. He moved Yan Shumo's thighs pressed on his stomach. Chu Chengmu turned over and crawled up, looked up at the window, and found that it was just bright outside the window.
Although the dormitory of Lao Chu was not small in size, the sound insulation was too poor. Not only were the uppermost connections of each room, but there were only a few layers of wooden boards used for partitions. If you fart here, you could hear it next door. After hesitating for a moment, Chu Chengmu made a little noise, and the low crying sound next door stopped immediately.
After changing into the clothes for a morning jogging, Chu Chengmu walked out of the master bedroom. As soon as he went out, he saw Jiang Nini standing by the door of her bedroom, looking at her with red eyes, looking like an abandoned puppy.
"Have you had a nightmare?" Chu Chengmu casually closed the bedroom door, walked to Jiang Nini a few steps, and asked in a low voice.
Jiang Nini nodded but didn't answer anything.
"When did you two sleep last night? If you can't sleep, get up and run with me?" Chu Chengmu looked down at the little girl with her mouth flattened down and said softly.
Jiang Nini still didn't answer, but just lowered her head and leaned against the door, looking listless. Seeing that she didn't speak, Chu Chengmu thought she had a high fever yesterday and had not recovered well yet, so he didn't plan to waste his time anymore. Today he still has a lot of things to do.
"Then you have another rest! Don't worry, I'll go and take breakfast for you two." After saying that, Chu Chengmu planned to turn around and leave, but felt that his clothes were being pulled. He couldn't help but look back and saw that the little girl was stretching out a finger and hooking the hem of her clothes.
"I'll go too!" Jiang Nini said in a low voice.
As usual, Chu Chengmu took Timo out for more than 20 laps. As usual, Timo also ran 1 and a half and refused to move another half step. However, unlike yesterday, this time there was a girl who was just as panting as it was.
After having breakfast at the breakfast shop on the street, Chu Chengmu brought Yan Shumo a salty tofu brain and Xiaolongbao as usual. When he returned to the dormitory, Yan Shumo still did not wake up in his sleep.
When Chu Chengmu took a shower, he found that Jiang Nini had put all the dirty clothes she had changed in the past two days in a large basin, soaked them in washing powder, and was placing dog food for Timo. Fortunately, Chu Chengmu's close-fitting clothes have never been placed with the clothes she wore outside, and nothing embarrassing happened.
"Are you planning to wash your hands?" Chu Chengmu returned to the master bedroom and changed into his clothes when he went out, returned to the living room, looked at the clothes soaked in the corner, tidied up his cuffs, and said to Jiang Nini, who was squatting on the ground and watching Timo having breakfast.
"Well, your clothes should be very expensive, right? If you wash the washing machine, it will easily get broken. Anyway, I can't sleep. 1. Close your eyes and think of my father's appearance before he dies. Just pass the time." Jiang Nini reached out and grabbed Timo's head. Seeing that the little broken dog had finished breakfast, she picked up its dog basin and walked towards the kitchen.
"Then don't be too tired. After all, you just got a fever and I still have something to do, so I'll go out first." Chu Chengmu looked sideways and looked at Jiang Nini, who was busy washing dishes in the kitchen. She picked up the handbag and car keys on the coffee table and said.
"Well, I know, be careful on the road!" Jiang Nini turned her head, looked at Chu Chengmu outside the door, smiled slightly at him, and replied.
When he went out, he called Lao Lao Yan and confirmed that the other party had gotten up. Then Chu Chengmu drove to the villa area on Binjiang Road. Not long after, he arrived at the small villa where Yan Shumo was forced to run away from home after only one morning.
After parking the car outside the villa, Chu Chengmu walked out the door and pressed the doorbell. With the sound of rapid footsteps, the bronze metal door was opened. Chu Chengmu looked into the door and found that the half-sister of Yan Shumo was opened.
