no longer ordinary friends

Zhou Zhicheng ignored him.

Jiang Xianghuai put her on the sofa, went to get the two portions of food, and said, "You haven't had dinner yet, so eat something to warm your stomach first."

After he finished speaking, he went to the bathroom. When he came out again, he carried a foot soaking bucket filled with warm water. He put the bucket in front of Zhou Zhicheng, squatted down, and looked up at her: "Wash your feet." ?”

Her feet had been washed in the clinic, but they were still a little dirty.

She didn't speak, and looked down at him. When the two of them were together, he also washed her feet. Her hands and feet were always cold in winter, so he forced her to soak her feet before going to bed. Sometimes she was too tired to soak her feet. She hid in the bed after taking a shower, and was pulled out of the bed by him. She was lazy, so she acted like a baby and asked him to wash her feet.

The first time, he would still protest, asking her who was used to her, and when she smiled slowly and asked him: "Who else?" It's not that after so many years, she's still not used to washing her feet.

Jiang Xianghuai didn't feel uncomfortable at all. After testing the temperature, he put her feet in and said, "The water temperature should be suitable. I'll get some ice cubes later and apply them to your ankles."

Zhou Zhicheng felt that if he went to be Xijiaocheng's younger brother, his skills and looks would be fine, but he would be too old.

Lawyer Jiang was worried, so he lowered his eyes and asked her, "What are you and Dr. He doing in the countryside?"

She doesn't answer.

"Is it work? Juvenile Management Office?" He asked without giving up, and took a towel to dry her feet.

Zhou Zhicheng was annoyed, and said, "It's his uncle who is in trouble, and the case fits the program group's topic."

Jiang Xianghuai spoke again, and there was an elusive smile in his voice: "Well, I'll get you some ice."

Seeing him leave, Zhou Zhicheng took out her mobile phone, there were so many messages on WeChat, she only clicked on the dialog between her and Jiang Li.

Jiang Li: "Too tired to vomit blood, jumping on the edge of resignation every day, just waiting for the end of the project to pay the money to continue life, the stupid broker always likes to point and point at the legal opinion, he just wants the lawyer to cover his rubbish risk The product is blamed, and recently my Mercury is retrograde."

She asked again: "How about you, how are you doing these days? How are you with Jiang Par?"

Zhou Zhicheng took a photo of her swollen ankle, sent it over, and said, "The hard-fated duo." She briefly explained her injury.

Jiang Li: "Doctor He is a good man, but Jiang Xianghuai's intentions are also obvious. The partner is going to the countryside, so he is going to save you."

Zhou Zhicheng hesitated for a moment: "Actually, I was with him back then, it doesn't count, he didn't even confess, and when I wanted to confirm the relationship, he even dumped me."

Jiang Li was silent for a while: "It's still a little goldfish, old men who have played with it are not very interesting anymore."

After a while, she said again: "But in fact, it still depends on whether you still like him or not. A lifetime is very long, and we are still very young."

I don't know whether to say this sentence to Zhou Zhicheng or to herself.

Jiang Li's thoughts changed, and the moment Jiang Xianghuai came in with ice cubes, her news came again: "No, I can only play with Jiang par, I remembered, and he went to record a show, Don't you still have to go back to Beicheng to work in the future, and you don't want to leave Nanri County, do you want to stay in another place?"

Zhou Zhicheng's expression didn't fluctuate much, career is of course more important than love.

She doesn't know if he is sincere now, but she won't give her sincerity anymore, and her sincerity will be trampled by him.

Jiang Xianghuai glanced at her, sat down next to her, held her foot with one hand, placed it on his lap, and gently applied ice cubes. He said calmly, "I will pick you up to go to work tomorrow."

"Do You have a Car?"

Jiang Xianghuai thought of that fancy electric bike, but it couldn't carry people. He was silent for a while: "I see that Grandpa's bicycle in the yard is quite big, so it can carry people. I'll ride it tomorrow?"

Zhou Zhicheng refused coldly: "No, thank you for your kindness, Ye Bai will come to pick me up."

Jiang Xianghuai ate dinner at Zhou's house. Cai Mei felt sorry that he lived in a hotel and could only eat takeaway every day, so he asked him to bring two trainee lawyers to Zhou's house for dinner in the future.

Jiang Xianghuai was polite: "Grandma, will this be too troublesome?"

Cai Mei sent him out, blaming enthusiastically: "Why bother? It will only take a month or two if you continue to trouble, and you will pat your ass and return to Beicheng. The time is fast, and we may have to eat Chengcheng when we meet again. The child's full moon wine."

Jiang Xianghuai saw her smiling happily, as if he had seen Zhou Zhicheng and He Jinyu have a baby, and sighed silently, Grandma really knew how to pierce his heart.

The next day, when Ye Bai arrived at Zhou's house, he immediately saw Jiang Xianghuai who had arrived early and the bicycle parked beside him.

She hesitated: "Lawyer Jiang, you don't want to take my job, do you?"

Zhao Yanjia was gnawing on a pumpkin pie: "Ye Bai, you are wrong."

Ye Bai squinted at him.

"You are a trainee lawyer turned paralegal. Although the position is called a paralegal, you are a lawyer, not a life assistant. Don't rush to do this kind of thing. If a layman finds out, they will really think that a paralegal is just a cow. Do horse labor."

Ye Bai frowned and stared at him, just as he was about to argue with him, when he leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Alright Ye Bai, let my brother be Lawyer Zhou's slave."

He was afraid of being beaten by his brother, so he dropped this sentence and went into the kitchen. His flattering voice came from far away: "Grandma, is there any soy milk? It's so delicious. If you go Open a breakfast restaurant, and it will be popular all the way to Beicheng, no, it is the United States."

Cai Mei was delighted to be coaxed by him.

When they all went to work, Cai Mei couldn't help but said: "Yan Jia is really a good boy, if it's not that he's a little younger and a foreigner, you can't introduce him to a good local girl."

Zhou Guohua was counting the goods there. The commissary had just entered a batch of goods. He helped down the frame of his presbyopic glasses and said, "When that kid first came, he acted like I didn't see that disgusting look?"

"He went to the United States to study in high school. His family is in a big business. It's normal for him to be afraid at first if he has never been to the country. Which rich kid has such a good temper like him."

Zhou Guohua was not happy when he was stunned: "I don't know if I have a good temper. It's a bit stupid to say that I brought some golf clubs over to play in the morning. I don't know if I can hit the ball well. It seems that I can weed. We The turf in the yard has been shoveled bare by him, and he can shovel several acres of land in an hour."

Cai Mei glared at him back and went to tidy up the shelves.

Zhou Guohua's mouth is not forgiving: "You don't care about others, first care about your grandson, Zhou Bingcheng is in his late thirties, and he is still single. In our county, even a matchmaker won't introduce him. He is an old bachelor."

"Didn't Jiang Li's mother come to mention it a few years ago? That girl seems to be in Beicheng and single too?" Cai Mei was thoughtful.

Zhou Guohua sneered: "You have a thick skin, you go, I won't go, the family that Zhou Bingcheng himself rejected, can't find a daughter-in-law now, and wants to find another family? Besides, I think the Jiang family, her mother is asking for a seven-figure dowry now." .”

Cai Mei also heard that Jiang Li's mother went back to her natal family, and her natal family told her that there are fewer girls now, and there are too many who can't find a wife, and the price of a village girl's bride price has increased to more than 100 million, so, She yelled everywhere that her Jiang Li's dowry must start at 100 million, saying that Jiang Li's annual salary is now 60, and he will surely make money when he gets married.

Cai Mei asked: "Do we have 100 million?"

Zhou Guohua: "I won't give it if there is anything. I didn't say it a few years ago. Chengcheng will give us back to our hometown for the elderly. The money of our old couple will be left to her."

"Do you think that Chengcheng and Xiang Huai are together?" Cai Mei thought for a while and then agreed, "If she really likes and wants to go to Beicheng, let her go. We can take care of ourselves now, and wait for our son and daughter-in-law to come back. We live with them."

Zhou Guohua was quiet for a while, and said calmly: "If Chengcheng is willing, of course I won't stop it."

But his heart was not peaceful at all.

Jiang Xianghuaicai sent Zhou Zhicheng to the office of the law firm, and received a call from Zhou Guohua. He walked to the balcony and answered, "Grandpa, what's wrong?"

"Can you buy a house in Beicheng for 100 million yuan?"

"Should...no." Jiang Xianghuai said very tactfully.

"Do you have a room?"

"Yes." Jiang Xianghuai didn't realize it at first, and then immediately continued, "I have two houses, and you and grandma can live in one alone."

Zhou Guohua murmured: "What are you thinking, kid?" Then he hung up the phone.

Jiang Xianghuai looked at the morning sun and the crowded stalls in the old street downstairs, raised his brows slightly, and felt that the stuffiness in his chest for a long time finally dissipated, and he let out a long laugh.
