Chapter 99 (1/2)

Jiang Jiu's brows moved. Last night, he went to deal with the sour. For a moment, he really didn't have the time and energy to take care of the Yao family.

I didn't expect that he didn't come to the door yet, but Yao's mother came up first.

”Is Yao Shun cured of his madness?” Jiang Shu pretended to be puzzled and said, ”isn't that a good thing? Why, you don't seem happy at all. If I did, would you thank me? ”

In fact, the reason why Yao Shun came to his senses is that he was blinded by the acid last night and lost his wings and legs. The corresponding control and influence will certainly decline. Yao Shun must have been manipulated by him, so he was crazy.

Now acid and powerless to control him, don't you have to be sober?

Yao's mother was speechless by his rhetorical question. After hesitating for a long time, she said, ”you just want my son to go to prison, so you won't be kind.”

Jiang Jiu's face sank: ”it's not normal to be in prison if you break the law? Or do you think it's good to let Yao Shun go crazy all the time in order not to go to jail? ”

He looked at his mother with a smile: ”if you want to, I can help you.”

Yao's mother was startled and subconsciously stepped back: ”dare you! It's against the law! Do you believe I'll let the police catch you? ”

”You'd better worry about Yao Shun's appraisal certificate first. We won't accept mediation here.” Jiang Jiu has no intention to entangle with her. He gives him a cold look and warns, ”if you are not satisfied with the result, just come to me next time. I don't mind helping Yao Shun to get rid of his mental illness.”

Yao's mother wanted to say a few more words, but she looked at Ying Qiao, who was obviously not easy to be provoked, hesitated for a moment, and finally retreated.

A few people ignore Yao's mother, get on the bus and rush to the funeral home.

Granny Li's body is sent to the funeral home to be groomed. Jiang Gu gives money to her. The makeup artist carefully arranges Granny Li's body and puts on new clothes, so that Jiang Chi can go in and see her for the last time.

After saying goodbye to the dead, they stood outside to see the body pushed into the cremation room.

After waiting in the reception room for about two hours, the staff held out a small urn for them.

Death is like a lamp out. This small urn is the proof that the dead have passed through the world. It is also the only thought of the living.

Jiang Chi took the urn and held it carefully in his arms.

Ying Qiao drove them to the Cemetery outside the city, which was contacted by the funeral home.

Li Xifang is a vagrant on the street. She lives by picking up garbage. She has no relatives or friends, but Jiang Chi, who was brought up, lives with her. So the funeral was very simple. There are not too many flowery things, only a black-and-white portrait, a porcelain white bone gray altar, and a bunch of white chrysanthemums.

Jiang Chi kneels in front of the tombstone and kowtows three times.

When he got up again, his eyes were red, but his voice was quiet: ”grandma, don't worry about me. Let's go at ease.”

The old man on the black-and-white portrait looks at him quietly.

Jiang Shu bowed to the tombstone and left the cemetery after the memorial ceremony.

On the way back, Jiang Chi and Jiaotu sat in the back seat, and the lion dragon was sitting between them, sitting awkwardly, leaning on this one and lying on that one.

Jiang Chi's head hung slightly, and his hair cast a small shadow on his face, which made his expression indistinct.

Lion dragon thought he was crying, and quickly twisted his head to see him, tail a little at a loss to swing: ”you don't cry.”

Jiaotu Wenyan also turned to look at him with concern.

”I didn't cry.” Jiang Chi raised his head. Although his eyes were still ruddy, they didn't shed tears.

He tried to tug at the corners of his mouth, with a distinctly raw smile.

This is his first laugh.

About too little to make such an expression, the smile fleeting, Jiang Chi soon returned to his usual facial expressionless, just thick eyelashes toward drooping, seems to be brewing something.

For a long time, Jiang Jiu heard him say, ”grandma is gone. Is our contract still counting?”

When Jiang Jiu persuaded him to send Li to the hospital for treatment, he said that he would pay for Li's treatment, while Jiang Chi would play with lion dragon Jiaotu and take care of the housework at home.

But in fact, Jiang Chi doesn't have much opportunity to do housework except to play with him.

At the beginning, he didn't understand. He didn't think that there would be a good thing like pie in the sky. He thought that signing the contract would count. But after living in Jiang's house for a week, he came into contact with many things that he could not touch before. He was like a sponge, constantly absorbing information from outside. The more he absorbed, the more he understood that what Jiang said at that time was mostly to coax him.

Before Grandma was hospitalized, he had the cheek to pretend he didn't know.

But now grandma has gone, and the future has been properly arranged. Jiang Chi finally asked what he had been hiding in his heart.

Before he said it, he was very nervous, but when he did, he calmed down.

He had planned that if the contract didn't count, he would go back to his former shed.

Jiang Chi subconsciously rubs the small cloth bag hidden in his waist. There is more than 200 yuan he saved for his grandmother's treatment. He didn't use it before. Save it. It should be enough for a while. At that time, we will find a way to find something to do and return the money spent during this period to Jiang GUI.

Just the thought of leaving, deep in my heart, there are wisps of reluctant.

It's not that I can't bear to eat and wear these days, it's that warm feeling. This was something he seldom got before, so he was very attached to it.

He did not hold too much expectation to wait for Jiang's answer.

Jiang said, ”it's not counting.”

His eyelashes trembled, and he felt so relieved. The fingers on his knees curled up subconsciously. Jiang Chi said difficultly, ”I will pay for the medicine.”

”I'm going to officially adopt you with the Bureau. Will you?”

Jiang Jiu and he speak at the same time. Before Jiang Chi finishes speaking, he looks up at him in surprise.

”It's too late not to want to.” Jiang Shu added with a smile.

Jiang Chi slowly pursed his lips, and his dark eyes lit up clusters of light. He whispered ”um”.

My heart is bursting with joy.
