Siheyuan, outside the alley!

Qin Huairu lowered her head and walked quickly with the basket in her arms, but her lowered eyes scanned the surroundings from time to time, and her heart was agitated.

The closer it got to the alley of the courtyard, the more something felt wrong to her.

That feeling was just like when she was doing something in the courtyard, she always felt like someone was watching her from the darkness.

But I looked around and found nothing!

Could it be that there is something dirty?

She still remembered that the last time she was blocked in the village, the people in the village had unpleasant words coming out of their mouths.

At first she was worried about it. It was so old, and it was still a remnant of feudalism.

But in her mind, she thought of the scenes in the Jia family, which made her feel that she couldn't believe everything.

Thinking of the strange monsters in the mountain villages that he had heard about before, as well as the monsters and monsters in the mouths of those old people, Qin Huairu's heart suddenly sank, and his body became a little stiff.

A gust of cool wind blew past her back, making her feel chilly in her heart.

When she was a child, she heard ghost stories told by villagers. She remembered that someone said that there were two balls of Yang Fire on both ends of a person's shoulders. When walking at night, if you heard any movement behind you, you must not look back.

Otherwise, when you turn your head, you will extinguish the Yang Fire on your shoulders, and evil things will crawl onto you.

At this moment, Qin Huairu only felt that her neck was stiff and her back was cold, and she did not dare to look back.

She also wanted to comfort herself by telling her not to do anything wrong and not be afraid of ghosts knocking on her door.

But I didn't even dare to think about it. What I was doing now was not a good thing.

And she has a lot to blame.

So he lowered his head and accelerated.

After walking for a while, I saw the courtyard gate in the alley, and my worries suddenly disappeared.

I feel relieved when I see my home!

Walking quickly, Qin Huairu stepped forward and pushed open the door of the courtyard, then turned around and closed the door. Only then did she dare to look up and look behind her.

Outside the gate, the alley is dark, and you can vaguely see the vertical walls.

However, what caught my eye was not a single figure.

"It's nothing!"

Qin Huairu muttered, feeling a little relieved.

Just as she closed the door, there were sudden footsteps behind her, and then a hand was put on her shoulder.

ah…

Qin Huairu screamed suddenly, and the basket in her hand almost turned over.

But then I heard a familiar voice.

"Sister, it's me!"

Qin Jingru's voice came, and Qin Huairu stabilized the basket, then changed her face and said, "It scares me to death, do you know that?"

As he spoke, he quickly checked the basket and saw that the eggs inside were not broken, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Jingru stepped forward and took a look, then smiled and said, "I saw that you haven't been back for a long time, so I came over to greet you!"

"Welcome, hum!"

"I'm afraid I'm missing out on your benefits!"

Qin Huairu said angrily, and Qin Jingru smiled cheekily.

"Go home first!"

Qin Huairu heard movement from the residents in the front yard and knew that the movement just now attracted the attention of those around her.

Qin Jingru also knew that this matter should not be exposed to light, so she took the initiative to take the basket, feeling particularly happy as she felt the weight in the basket.

"Sister, it's been a hard journey. I'll come with you next time."

"It just so happens that my parents, brother and sister-in-law can help me too."

The two of them passed the hanging flower gate, and then saw the lights on in Yang's house in the middle courtyard. If nothing else, it was Yang Xiaotao reading in the study.

Qin Huairu took a second look, suppressed the irritability in her heart, and said noncommittally, "If you want to find someone, you have to look outside, and don't even think about the area around Sijiu City!"

Qin Jingru nodded after hearing this, knowing what she was worried about.

After all, if there are many people who know about the surrounding alleys, the secret may be revealed.

It will be difficult for them to make money like this anymore!

When the two walked into the door of the house, Qin Jingru immediately put the basket on the table, then opened the cloth covering it and counted the harvest.

"Okay, this time it's your aunt who found the door. Leave some for the family, and you can just take the rest!"

Then he took out two potatoes and three eggs.

Qin Jingru became jealous when she saw that there were so many things in the basket, but she was given so little.

"Sister, at this point, I..."

"Huh, I'm not happy about it. Go ahead and tell me. If you tell me, you won't get anything!"

Qin Huairu glanced at Qin Jingru. She was afraid that Qin Jingru would expose her when they didn't cooperate earlier, but now they are like grasshoppers on the same rope. If the boat capsizes, no one will be able to benefit.

Therefore, even if you only give her a little, she will still make a profit, otherwise she will get nothing at all.

It was precisely after seeing through this that she dared to be so stubborn.

Qin Huairu is smart, and Qin Jingru is not stupid either.

This is a long-term transaction, one point at a time.

"Sister, I will also pay for the wine next, can you share more in the future?"

Qin Jingru put away the things given to her and then spoke.

"Well, in addition to the introduction fee and my errand fee, the rest will be divided evenly!"

Qin Huairu didn't care about it and put the basket away after Qin Jingru put away the things.

Autumn is coming soon, and she will have to make two more trips on harvest days to prepare for the winter.

"By the way, sister, I went out for a walk today and met a family in the alley next door!"

"Her family has just moved here and is in the process of cleaning up the house. I think that family is quite wealthy. They bought a lot of wood and said they are looking for someone to make furniture. I heard they are all university teachers..."

Qin Jingru talked about what happened during the day, but Qin Huairu was not interested in listening.

"Sister, I'm talking!"

"I'm listening!"

Qin Huairu lay on the bed tiredly and didn't want to pay attention to what was going on in the alley. She had been taught too many lessons and didn't dare to get involved.

Now that I have done this business, I can do it safely.

Qin Jingru curled her lips when she saw it, and then said, "I don't think they have any children at home. Do you think this could be an opportunity?"

"You can do it yourself if you want. You have the recipe anyway."

Seeing Qin Huairu's lack of interest, Qin Jingru felt rebellious.

He turned around and walked out the door, muttering, "When it's done, I'll make you jealous to death."

...

Shanghai

Zheng Chaoyang frowned in the office, looking at the documents one by one, feeling confused.

Since Bai Ling and Hao Pingchuan left, he has settled down in this office and devoted himself to his work.

It's just that we are currently encountering too many problems, too complicated, and there are only attacks that occur again and again. As for why the attacks are carried out and the consequences of the attacks, after some analysis, we have no clue.

These people, these attacks, seem to be just for destruction.

And this kind of situation has disappeared over the years, except for the time when it was just liberated.

The opponent's fighting style has also become a secret front, hiding in the shadows.

Such behavior is really unexpected and unreasonable.

When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.

This kind of unreasonableness is the biggest unreasonableness.

Zheng Chaoyang felt that there must be some unclear connection here, and the other party's purpose was certainly not simple.

He lowered his head, sorted out what happened again, and placed it in front of him.

Looking at the locations of the attacks and the meaning behind them, Zheng Chaoyang's eyes kept wandering over them, trying to find the unclear connection.
