Crossing 70: Fish in the Pond Have Good News

Chapter 522 Summer Vacation

Yi Chi came back very late every day. The stars outside had already filled the night sky. He walked into the yard under the starlight.

Jiang Yu turned on the lights in the yard and was watering the vegetable garden and flower bed in the corner with a water pipe.

Seeing him becoming more active day by day, Jiang Yu's mood also became very good.

"How was your day? Did everything go well?" Jiang Yu put down the water pipe, went to the sink to turn off the faucet, and pulled Yi Chi to sit on the stone bench in the yard, ready to chat for a while.

Yi Chi's eyes were smiling, and he looked radiant. Although he had been busy all day, he was still full of energy. He played with Jiang Yu's fingers and said happily, "Today I took someone to visit the store of a man who listened to my advice and opened a small store. The man said that his business was quite stable, because it was right at the entrance of the alley and it was his own house. Apart from the money spent on purchasing goods, there was no additional expenditure, and many neighbors came to patronize his business. When their families were short of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, it was very convenient to walk a few steps to his place to buy them. It can be seen that the man's troubles have indeed been solved."

"Now that you have a successful case, what is the attitude of the person you are trying to persuade today?" Jiang Yu ignored the hand that Yi Chi was holding, and supported his chin with his left hand, listening to him carefully.

Yi Chi nodded vigorously. "Everyone seems to envy the boss, but everyone's situation is different. Not everyone is suitable for opening a small shop. My classmates and I took them around. Everyone comes from an ordinary family and doesn't have much cash. So if you want to start your own business, it's better to have a skill. In the area where my classmate is in charge, someone said he wants to open a small shop selling bamboo weaving. Do you think he will have business?"

"Of course, if he can only make some simple bamboo weaving, such as baskets and baskets, there will be people who need them to patronize him. Of course, if he has a spirit of innovation and makes some better-looking bamboo weaving, his business will definitely be better." Jiang Yu said very firmly. Bamboo weaving is a very common thing in the south. On weekdays, you have to carry a bamboo basket to buy vegetables. Who doesn't need a basket? There will definitely be customers.

Yi Chi also nodded, "That's great." Everyone can find a way to make money, and the days of hunger and poverty are slowly becoming a thing of the past. That's great.

"You run around every day to solve the problems of the common people. You are very good." Jiang Yu's cold eyes are now filled with praise for Yi Chi, and become tender and affectionate.

Yi Chi looked at him, and suddenly reached out and hugged the person in his arms.

Jiang Yu was a little surprised, but still hugged the other person's back and patted him twice as if to comfort him.

Yi Chi buried his head in Jiang Yu's shoulder, rubbed it twice, and whispered, "Jiang Yu, I feel very happy."

"Why?" Jiang Yu put his hand on the back of his head and stroked his hair.

His hair hasn't been cut for a while, so it has grown a lot longer. If he changes into a shirt, it will poke at the collar and bulge out, which looks ugly.

"It's safe this way." If they can all make money, their family won't stand out, Yi Chi thought. After seeing more of society, he realized how dangerous it was when their family was the only wealthy one in Yijiabao.

Grandpa thinks that the villagers who were rescued are harmless, but who can say for sure where everyone's bottom line is? You think they are little sheep who need your help to survive, but in fact they may be surrounded by wolves.

Jiang Yu listened to his words, and it took him a while to understand what he meant. He could only sigh silently and comfort him, "It's okay for you to understand it this way. At the beginning, your grandfather trusted other people's humanity too much. In this world, only humanity can never be gambled. But the Yi family was killed, and it was never your fault, so don't hold a grudge, okay? Look at our current life, the future is so beautiful, if we keep immersing ourselves in the past, don't you think it's a pity?"

Yi Chi hugged Jiang Yu tightly and looked up at the flowerbed behind her. The red and yellow flowers were trembling on the branches, and the stars in the distant night sky were twinkling. It was indeed infinitely beautiful, so, "I will try my best to let go of everything in the past, and then go with you to meet a better future."

"It's okay, you can take your time, I will wait for you." Jiang Yu leaned back so that she could see the face opposite her. Her eyes were firm and focused, looking at the flowers she had watered bit by bit. She was very patient, because it takes time to see the most beautiful flowers.

Yi Chi looked down at her, and his crescent-shaped eyes were twinkling with stars.

This summer, because Yi Chi was busy with club activities, Jiang Yu did not go out to visit craftsmen in other cities. Instead, he accepted an order from the steel plant in City B and helped them make a small steel plant model.

Fu Biao also took this opportunity to come visit them from B time.

When Jiang Yu went to greet him at the door, he unexpectedly saw He Chongwen.

"You guys came here together?" Jiang Yu made way and looked at Fu Biao, then at He Chongwen. He was indeed very surprised.

The backyard of the villa was being renovated in preparation for building three workshops, and workers were coming in and out, so the house looked a bit messy.

Jiang Yu invited them to the small reception room on the second floor.

Fu Biao nodded and explained, "He Chongwen said he wanted to visit Wu Xiaoxiao, so he came with me."

"You two..." How come you are still connected? Jiang Yu was very confused. She knew He Chongwen liked Fu Biao, but the straight man Fu Biao obviously would not respond to him, so why did these two meet?

He Chongwen smiled gently and replied, "I was admitted to the Military Medical University, and occasionally I would participate in physical training with them."

What?! Jiang Yu blinked and led them upstairs.

Fu Biao could directly join the army as an officer after graduation. Could He Chongwen choose to study at the Military Medical University for his hopeless love? In order to stay in the same place with him in the future?

The reception room on the second floor is spacious and bright, and Jiang Yu had redecorated it not long ago.

Those beautiful sofas were arranged for her by Xue Li when he was purchasing furniture. The villa was originally in Western style, so the soft leather sofas were placed here. With the colored glass windows at the back and the gently swaying white gauze curtains, it really has a capitalist style.

Fu Biao looked around the room and said in an ambiguous tone, "Things seem to be changing faster in the south."

"Is City B still doing the same thing as before?" Jiang Yu sat down and began to pour tea for them.

The tea was bought by Yi Chi and it is very fragrant.

"Yes, although everyone in the streets is calling for openness, the actual progress is very slow." Fu Biao sat down next to her, looking very relaxed.
