no longer ordinary friends

Kailun Law Firm has a legal aid center in Guancun, which requires lawyers to be on duty. Recently, it is also holding a "legal publicity in village households" activity, which is also part of the recording of the program.

"Okay, we're done talking, let's go to the village." Ye Bai satisfactorily told a few people the story of Lawyer Zhou's battle with the judicial system of Nanri County, and then began to pack his things and prepare to go to the countryside. By the way, he urged Zhao Yanjia and the others to do the same. hurry up.

"In the village?" Zhao Yanjia thought he heard it wrong, "What are you doing in the village? Handling cases, or consulting? Why don't we let them come to the law firm for consultation? What should we prepare? Do we need to read files or other materials?"

Ye Bai replied: "Neither, to be precise, we are going to go to legal aid today."

Zhao Yanjia nodded knowingly: "Understood, I have done this in the United States."

"That would be the best." Ye Bai glanced at him, then said with a smile, "There is nothing wrong with doing legal aid, but we are also going to promote the law firm and expand the source of cases. We need to build a good relationship with the villagers. You take the noble young master's temper away."

After she finished speaking, she glanced at the aloof Lu He from the corner of her eye, and the implication was obvious.

Lu He put his computer into his schoolbag and sneered.

"Entertainment, I understand." Zhao Yanjia is confident, "I have practiced in the United States before, and the relationship with clients is very good. I am quite approachable, and my family is in business. I dare not say anything else. I learned it in my stomach."

Ye Bai: "..."

Guancun is on a small island in the Nanri Islands. From Nanri County, you have to take a boat first, and then transfer to a bus or the tricycle in the village. The boat is okay, although it is small, it is not bad. They In the past, I saw some tourists come here to experience sea fishing. The boats went back and forth on the blue sea of ​​the lake. The sea breeze hit, and the clear blue waves rippled.

Zhao Yanjia was lying on the edge of the boat, looking at the mists of the hills and mountains in the distance and the fishing port reefs with the characteristics of subtropical waters nearby. He was blown very comfortably by the salty sea breeze, and stretched out his fingers to fiddle with the sea water, unable to bear it Feeling: "It's more beautiful than I imagined, a bit like a vacation."

Ye Bai is very proud: "The scenery here is very beautiful, a paradise, fresh air, beautiful mountains and rivers, but the tourism resources have not been developed much. Lawyer Kai Lun said that this is an idyllic place. You will definitely love it when you come here. Don't want to leave."

Lu He said softly, "Wang Po sells melons."

Ye Bai: "Don't force me to hit you in front of the camera."

Jiang Xianghuai looked at the large white windmills on the hillside surrounding Nanri County, and smiled: "Perhaps after the show is broadcast, Nanri County will become a popular tourist attraction."

"This is a legal program." Zhou Zhicheng also laughed, but when she agreed to participate in the recording, she had this selfish intention. The county government has worked hard to attract investment and talents in the past few years, just to develop tourism resources, and it has been relatively successful so far. Only Nanxiao Village.

The elder brother photographer on the boat next door couldn't help but said, "Don't worry, trust our technology, we will definitely capture all the beauty of Nanri County."

Lu He's tone was light: "Take pictures of the tough folk customs."

"Shoot you in first, so that the audience can see how cheap your mouth is." Ye Bai glared at him.

Several people got off the boat, and after landing on the island, Zhou Zhicheng suddenly noticed that Zhao Yanjia was also carrying a long black bag, which he held in his arms like a baby, mysteriously.

"What did you bring?" she asked.

"Secrets of making friends." Zhao Yanjia was full of confidence.

Jiang Xianghuai pulled the corner of his lower lip, and said to Zhou Zhicheng, "Leave him alone, you can't keep up with his brain circuit."

He has always been tolerant to Zhao Yanjia, because if he is not tolerant, he will get sick from anger, no matter what outrageous things he encounters, as long as he thinks that Zhao Yanjia did it, all the outrageous things will become reasonable.

Some fishermen recognized Zhou Zhicheng from a distance, and greeted him enthusiastically: "Lawyer Zhou, are you going to the countryside again today? Oh, go to my place for lunch. I agreed to go last time, but later I didn't." No time to come!"

"Lin Yibo, good morning, I'm going to the countryside to do business today." Zhou Zhicheng smiled and waved to them.

A few fishermen came over carrying a full iron bucket, their bodies were wet and smelled like seafood, they put the bucket in front of Zhou Zhicheng, and greeted, "I'll catch some for you, Nanri Bao today!" You and Xiagu are very fat, and your grandma's favorite asparagus, it's rare to come here, you must bring some fresh ones back!"

"No need." Zhou Zhicheng said, "It's not very convenient today. We have to go to the official village to work, and behind us are people from the TV station."

"Yes, yes, yes, now that I think about it, Lawyer Zhou is the best, and he brought us Nanri to the Capital TV!"

One of the old men couldn't help but looked at Jiang Xianghuai a few times, felt familiar, stared at it for a while, and clapped his hands suddenly: "Isn't this the pink-haired boy back then? I haven't seen him for many years, you are getting old."

Jiang Xianghuai was silent.

The uncle was very enthusiastic, and even imitated: "Just sing pop songs, dye a little hooligan's hair, and sing together with that boy from the Zhou family at the county cultural festival. My little granddaughter is so fascinated."

Jiang Xianghuai didn't expect that after so many years, some people still remembered him singing on the big country stage. He did a lot of interesting things in Nanri County during the summer vacation ten years ago.

Zhou Zhicheng couldn't help but bend the corners of his lips.

After the fishermen left, Zhao Yanjia pestered Zhou Zhicheng, running to her left for a while, and leaned to her right for a while, with a loud voice: "Lawyer Zhou, my brother also participated in your cultural festival? Do you have any photos? I didn’t expect my brother to have been unorthodox, and even dyed his hair pink..."

His strong curiosity prevented him from paying attention. They went to Guancun by a country tractor that could call "chug tug". It was noisy and bumpy. Crowded in a corner.

He groaned and climbed onto the tractor, something flashed through his mind, and he slapped his thigh: "Is my brother's coquettish singing just for courtship? Confess to Lawyer Zhou?"

The surroundings were silent, the number of people was relative, no one spoke for a while, only the noise of the tractor engine.

Ye Bai let out an "ah", his eyes wandered back and forth between Jiang Xianghuai and Zhou Zhicheng, he hesitated to speak, he didn't say anything, but he seemed to have said everything.

After being silent for a long time, she still felt incredible.

Lawyer Jiang not only knew Lawyer Zhou long ago, but also liked Lawyer Zhou?No wonder there was something wrong between them.

Zhou Zhicheng didn't know how to react for a moment. Could it be that he wanted to tell them that the person he had been secretly in love with was not Jiang Xianghuai, but her?

Jiang Xianghuai didn't even want to explain, he just smiled, leaned on the railing of the back seat of the tractor, stared at Zhao Yanjia, and repeated slowly: "Courtship?"

The air was stagnant for a while.

Ye Bai's voice sounded weakly: "That... ten years ago... Lawyer Zhou was underage... right?"

The tractor bumped, and her tail sound also trembled, mixed with the sound of the roaring engine. It was clearly blurred, but everyone present could hear it clearly.

"Pervert!" Zhao Yanjia was overwhelmed with a sense of justice and spat loudly, "You are still a barrister, knowing the law and breaking the law, you must be arrested."

"I think your skin is itchy, Zhao Yanjia." Jiang Xiang Huaiyin said tentatively.

The legal aid center of Guancun is located at the checkpoint at the entrance of the village. The village chief had informed everyone that a lawyer would be on duty today, so when Zhou Zhicheng and the others arrived, many villagers were already waiting there.

Guancun is located in the hills inside the island, and it takes about 5 kilometers to drive the winding road. The villagers prepared to give Zhou Zhicheng their own fruits and vegetables and fresh seafood that had just been salvaged.

"Lawyer Zhou, I've been waiting for you for a long time. Last time you told us about the IOU and the IOU. Help me see if my IOU is written correctly?"

"Lawyer Zhou, my son got into a fight with someone a while ago and was arrested by the police. I was so anxious to death."

"Lawyer Zhou..."

As soon as Zhou Zhicheng entered the house, she was surrounded by villagers who swarmed up. She sat down, took the materials that everyone wanted to show her one by one, and comforted her with a smile: "Don't worry, I'll take a look, I will We are all in Guancun today, so we have plenty of time."

Lu He looked around at the crude environment around him and the rude villagers rushing up in a swarm, and subconsciously frowned.

Zhou Zhicheng glanced at Jiang Xianghuai who was standing beside her, and introduced: "This is lawyer Jiang Xianghuai, he is also here for legal aid, besides me and him, there are three trainee lawyers, you can also ask They, ask them for help."

Although Zhao Yanjia was rich and had many problems, but he was pure and kind-hearted. Seeing the villagers all looking at him, his heart was filled with enthusiasm and justice, and he patted his chest: "Yes, yes, yes, this young master knows everything, and he can say everything, Everyone is welcome to ask me."

The villagers glanced at him and unconsciously showed disgust. No one wanted to go.

Ye Bai giggled, and added insult to injury: "Fortunately, the villagers don't know that you are preparing for the Three Wars Law Examination."

"Go away." Master Zhao was aggrieved.

Just at this time, an aunt just ran in from the outside. She was holding an old hen that was screaming and struggling. Lawyer Zhou, where is Lawyer Zhou?"

She didn't see Zhou Zhicheng who was sitting, but instead saw the well-dressed Jiang Xianghuai who was standing, and asked, "Is this also a lawyer?"

Zhou Zhicheng nodded blankly: "Yes, he is a lawyer."

"It's fine if you're a lawyer." The aunt said, and without any explanation, she stuffed the old hen in her hand into Jiang Xianghuai's hand, her voice angrily said, "Damn short-lived ghost, you stole all the old hens from my house, and this is all that's left. There is only one chicken, you weigh it, this chicken is heavy and fat, but it was stolen! I have already called the police! It’s too hateful! Attorney Zhou, the thief said that this chicken is worthless and will not go to jail. Will it be worthless?"

In the Nanri dialect, the hen is called the hen mother.

Zhou Zhicheng didn't answer her aunt's question. She watched the old hen fluttering towards Jiang Xianghuai's body, its wings fluttering and its feathers flying.

The expression on Jiang Xianghuai's face froze, and his body was even more rigid, motionless. His thin lips were pursed into a straight line, his Adam's apple rolled, his pupils dilated slightly, and his face turned paler calmly.

She remembered that Jiang Xianghuai, who was not afraid of anything, was afraid of chickens.
