After an unknown amount of time, Zhu Ting lay on the pillow exhausted.
Du Fei was laughing beside him.
Zhu Ting was too lazy to pay attention to him and didn't want to move at all.
After a few minutes, I regained some strength, and then I glared hard and cursed, "You stinking scoundrel!" .??.
But because he was exhausted, this glare was not a deterrent, but more like a wink.
Du Fei curled his lips, propped himself up with his hands, and muttered: "It seems like it's not in place yet!"
Zhu Ting was not afraid of him. She became fierce and gritted her teeth and said, "I will fight with you."
…
The next morning, because the curtains were not drawn last night, the sun shone directly in.
There was a layer of frost on the glass.
Zhu Ting was shaken open her eyes and glanced at the clock on the wall out of habit.
It's almost nine o'clock, and I'm already late for work.
Zhu Ting sat up with her arms propped up and felt weak all over.
I slept all night yesterday and didn't fully recover.
There was a small quilt underneath her body.
When I opened it, I saw a large area of wetness underneath, as if I had peed.
It didn't dry out overnight and it was still moist to the touch.
Thinking of last night, Zhu Ting's face turned red.
I noticed that there was no one around, so I thought that Du Fei had gone to work when he got up in the morning?
"You little bastard, are you really tired?" Zhu Ting muttered.
But I could faintly hear the sound of spatulas touching pots outside, "Huh? You're not leaving?"
She wanted to get up and take a look, but she was too lazy and simply retreated into bed.
After waiting for a while, Du Fei came in with a plate from outside and said with a smile, "Wake up, fried steamed buns and poached eggs."
Zhu Ting pouted, sat up and leaned on the bed: "You didn't go to work?"
Du Fei said, "Working is not as important as you."
Zhu Ting said "cut" and said, "This is your mouth. You didn't rub her to death yesterday."
Du Fei laughed.
Zhu Ting glared at him and said seriously: "No kidding, next time you dare to go crazy, climb outside the window, and do those dangerous things, I will... I will..."
I waited for a long time, and Zhu Ting found that she seemed to have no threat.
He simply gritted his teeth and said, "I'll kill you on your head, so you don't have to worry about it."
Du Fei has a good attitude.
If you make a mistake, admit it. If you admit it, correct it. After correcting it, make it again. After making it, correct it again. Practice through hard work~
After finishing the work, he took out the box that Li Yuanchao sent yesterday and said, "Xiaoting, look at what this is?"
I should have taken it out last night, but the battle situation was so tense that I didn't have time.
"What?" Zhu Ting took it and asked curiously.
Du Fei smiled and said: "Open it and take a look."
He took a look at it yesterday and knew the quality of the things inside.
Zhu Ting opened it again, her eyes widened with an incredible expression on her face.
I saw two emerald green bracelets in the box.
Although Zhu Ting didn't know much about jade and didn't know what imperial green glass was, she also knew that these bracelets were definitely extraordinary.
Zhu’s mother also has a pair of similar bracelets.
They are far less translucent and moist than this pair, which even Zhu’s mother treasures.
"Where did this... come from?" Zhu Ting reached out and picked up one and put it in front of her eyes to look at it carefully.
"Li Yuanchao gave it to me yesterday. He didn't make it in time for our wedding..." Du Fei said with a smile, "Put it on and try it on."
Zhu Ting said "Hmm" and put the bracelet on her wrist with all her strength.
A little tight, but not in the way.
The green jade bracelet makes Zhu Ting's skin even whiter.
"It's so beautiful!" Zhu Ting raised her hands and sighed happily: "It's a pity that I can't wear it."
Du Fei smiled and said, "Then let's wear them at home. I'll get you a set of phoenix crowns and harems when we get back. When we get there, we'll wear them all..." … "
Zhu Ting rolled her eyes at him and scolded him "a gangster".
But that scene couldn't help but pop up in my mind...
Since that day, Du Fei and Zhu Ting had a tacit understanding and no one mentioned Qin Huairou again.
However, one wave comes after another.
Du Fei originally thought that there would be nothing wrong with the Chinese New Year in less than a month.
Unexpectedly, just a few days later, Wang Yufen called again.
Today is Saturday, January 6th, the Xiaohan solar term.
God was very kind to the occasion and it snowed moderately.
Du Fei sent Zhu Ting to work all morning and didn't arrive at the unit until almost nine o'clock.
As usual, the ones sweeping the snow downstairs were Qian Sheng and Sun Dasheng.
Although the snow was not heavy today, the cold wave in Xianbelia followed closely, and the temperature dropped by more than ten degrees overnight.
Wearing a cotton-padded jacket can still make people shiver from the cold.
Although Du Fei is not afraid of the cold, it does not mean that he is comfortable in the cold.
Went upstairs to the office, arranged some things, and signed two documents sent by Aunt Zheng.
Originally, this job belonged to Liu Xinru.
Now that Liu Xinru has quit, it stands to reason that Wang Xi will take over.
But Wang Xi was also implicated because of Director Zheng's matter.
Aunt Zheng is the only one left in the department doing back office work.
It was almost eleven o'clock, and Du Fei was looking at some materials from last summer and autumn foreign trade fair.
After the Chinese New Year, this year's trade fair will be held in a few months.
The Foreign Affairs Department will be busy at that time.
But at this moment, the phone on the table suddenly rang.
Du Fei didn't really like the phone call at this time. It was convenient, but it was too noisy.
I'm shocked every time I get a call.
He reached out and picked up the phone and said "hello".
"Hello, Section Chief Du? I'm Wang Yufen from the Dongcheng Branch..."
Wang Yufen's serious voice came from the other side of the phone.
Du Fei was stunned. Normally Wang Yufen was very well-behaved. She wouldn't say a word if Du Fei didn't take the initiative to go.
what is it today?
Du Fei thought to himself, there really is no time left, this little vixen can't stand it anymore?
"Comrade Yufen~" Du Fei responded, "What's the matter?"
Wang Yufen said, "Chief Du, excuse me, I have a friend... yes, I want to ask you to do something..."
Du Fei couldn't help but smile to himself as he listened to Wang Yufen's serious nonsense.
Wang Yufen's phone number is from the main office of her work unit, and there are colleagues listening nearby.
There is actually only one message that Wang Yufen really wanted to convey with this phone call.
I just have something important to do here. Please pick a time and come over for an interview.
Du Fei put down the phone, but he was a little confused. Why did Wang Yufen suddenly come to see him for something important?
Could it be that she and Yu Jiajia didn't get along well and they had a conflict?
Or something else?
Du Fei thought, raised his hand to look at his watch, and then reached out to pick up the phone.
I dialed an internal number and went to the main office.
The person who answered the phone was Deputy Section Chief Zhang.
"Hey, Lao Zhang~ I'm Du Fei...I'm going to the foreign trade company in the afternoon. If Corey has something to do, please help keep an eye on it."
Zhang Wenzhong quickly agreed to reassure Du Fei.
Du Fei put down the phone and waited until noon before riding his bike straight to Wang Yufen's yard.
We were on the phone just now and agreed to meet at noon.
In addition to talking about things, he also had to comfort the little widow. Du Fei did it in the afternoon
I have no intention of going back.
As for Wang Yufen, because of the relationship between Director Gao and Jiang Donglai, Wang Yufen also has some face there.
Just saying hello is not a problem.
There wasn't much snow last night, and the wind blew and swept it all morning, so there was nothing left on the road.
They were all piled up under the street trees on both sides, forming snowdrifts.
Du Fei rode the bicycle faster and arrived one step ahead of Wang Yufen.
Because it was daytime, Du Fei didn't climb over the wall and just knocked on the door.
There was no doorbell at this time, and Yu Jiajia was inside. It took a long time before she came out to answer the door.
Asked "who"?
When I heard it was Du Fei, I quickly opened the door.
Du Fei called "Sister Yu" and pushed the car in from outside.
The snow has been swept away in the yard and a snowman has been built.
Du Fei smiled and said, "Is it made by Little Grape?"
Yu Jiajia nodded.
But a little head emerged from the door curtain of the upper room, and said in a sweet voice: "Hello, Uncle Du, my mother built it. I'm watching from the side."
Yu Jiajia blushed.
He is such an adult, yet he did such a childish thing and was discovered!
It made her feel a little embarrassed.
He quickly found other topics to cover up.
When we got inside, the stove was burning warm.
On the table were yarn and a half-knitted sweater.
Yu Jiajia usually does this to pass the time.
There are kindergarten textbooks next to it, and he must be teaching his daughter how to read while knitting a sweater.
Du Fei sat down.
Yu Jiajia went to get him a cup of hot water, "Drink some water to warm it up."
Du Fei said "hmm", picked up the cup and put it in his hand, asking, "Isn't it tiring to raise a child alone?"
Either Du Fei was particularly concerned about this, or the two of them had to say something in the room, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.
Yu Jiajia said, "It's okay~ Putao is pretty good, but I...have nothing to do day by day."
It could be heard that she still didn't give up and still wanted to find a job.
Du Fei didn't answer.
Yu Jiajia was a little disappointed and then asked, "Have you contacted Xiangjiang again these days? My mother and Xinxinxin are fine, right?"
Du Fei smiled, "Don't worry, Lao Chen won't wrong them."
Then he said, "If you are really bored, I will help you find two books later and learn English so that you can use them later."
In fact, learning Cantonese is more practical, but you can’t learn Cantonese by following a book, you can only find someone to teach you.
It's hard to find people like this in the capital, so she can only go there and learn slowly.
Yu Jiajia nodded.
She doesn't have a very strong personality, otherwise she wouldn't be bullied by her husband's family.
Now that I am living under someone else's roof and have no source of income, I have to accept the situation even more.
At this time, there was another knock on the door.
When Yu Jiajia knew that Wang Yufen was back, she immediately got up and went out to open the door.
After waiting for a while, Wang Yufen walked in with a white breath.
His face was flushed with cold.
Seeing Du Fei's eyes lit up, he would have pounced on him if he hadn't been worried about Jiajia and his daughter.
Yu Jiajia was very discerning and immediately pulled her daughter and said, "Come on, Putao, go back to the house with mom. Uncle and Aunt Wang want to talk about something."
Little Putao said "Oh" and was pulled to the east room by her mother.
Before entering, he looked back curiously.
Now Wang Yufen was no longer reserved, threw herself into Du Fei's arms, and murmured, "Sir, I miss you!"
Du Fei hugged her and kissed her cold cheek, and said hey, "What are you thinking about? Let me touch her."
Wang Yufen made a sound, and said with charming eyes, "Master, take the slave back to the house..." …”
After Du Fei got married, it was impossible to say it out at night like before.
Wang Yufen understood Du Fei's intention of making an appointment with her at noon.
I simply don't care about proclaiming myself in the daytime.
But it was Yu Jiajia’s side who suffered.
Not long after I returned home, I heard movement coming from the house.
At first Wang Yufen was still suppressing it, but after a while she couldn't suppress it even if she wanted to.
In the same house, Yu Jiajia listened so seriously that her cheeks got hot subconsciously and her knees pushed together hard.
However, Little Putao came to cause trouble at this time, blinking his big eyes and curiously asking, "Mom, what's wrong with Aunt Wang? Did uncle hit her when she made a mistake?"
Yu Jiajia quickly said, "Putao, Aunt Wang is sick, and uncle is treating her~"
Putao suddenly realized, "Is uncle giving Aunt Wang an injection?"
Yu Jiajia felt tired for a while, nodded and said perfunctorily, "It's an injection~"
After a while, the movement there showed no intention of stopping.
Yu Jiajia's mouth went dry after hearing this.
I looked up at my watch and saw that it had been more than twenty minutes.
But based on her last experience, she knew it was still early for the end~
But at this moment, Putao suddenly stretched out his little hand and touched her head: "Huh? Mom, what's wrong with you? Are you sick too? Why is it so hot?"
Yu Jiajia hurriedly said it was okay.
But Putao said reluctantly, "Mom, are you sick too? Why don't you let Uncle Du see you too~"
Yu Jiajia's face instantly turned redder and she glared, "Don't talk nonsense! Mom is fine!"
Little Grape pouts aggrievedly, not daring to say any more.
Yu Jiajia was upset.
I secretly regretted it. If I had known this, I should have taken Putao out.
But then I thought again, it was freezing outside, where could the two of them go?
After a while, the movement over there finally stopped.
Yu Jiajia couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
Standing up from the kang, I wanted to get some wool and start knitting.
But as soon as I got up, I felt it was chilly down there.
I just got wet without realizing it.
Yu Jiajia looked at Si Teng for a while and then did it. Unexpectedly, within a few minutes, there came again...
This time Wang Yufen was very thirsty and planned to eat all at once.
Not content with scoring twice, he insisted on a hat trick.
By the time it was over, my neck was numb and I hadn't even said anything about it yet.
Take a nap.
Only then did Wang Yufen come to her senses and lay on Du Fei's chest: "Sir, there's something I can't tell you right."
Du Fei said "Hmm" "Just tell me, listen~"
Wang Yufen said, "This is just the New Year. Go back to my father's place..."
Du Fei couldn't help but frown when he heard what she said.
It turns out that a few days ago, Wang Yufen and her parents went back to Wang Qiye's place to celebrate the festival.
I overheard Chen Laosan talking to someone, and seemed to mention her master.
But as soon as she heard a sound, she was spotted by Chen Laosan, and the others behind her didn't hear it either, so the call was not accurate.
"Compassion?" Du Fei couldn't help but feel his heart move after hearing this.
Since Ningcui Temple was burned down last time, Ci Xin has disappeared.
Du Fei kept the crow there for a long time, but found no trace of Ci Xin.
I thought she would either run away and leave the capital.
Or he was too seriously injured and died somewhere else even though he escaped.
Du Fei collected the things Ci Xin left in the secret room down the well and withdrew the crows there.
Just think of it as a matter of fact.
Unexpectedly, new clues appeared here for Wang Yufen.
