Siheyuan: The Idiot in Charge

Chapter 493 Poisoned

A tenement building in Sau Fu Street, Yuen Long.

After visiting the flower market, the Zhao family took two taxis back to their home in Yuen Long.

After the Zhao family came to Hong Kong, they have always maintained the custom of staying up all night to celebrate the New Year.

After arriving home, the family gathered together, eating melon seeds and watching TV, waiting for the arrival of midnight.

After twelve o'clock, indicating that the new year has arrived, the family celebrated. After Zhao's father and mother distributed New Year's red envelopes to the children, Zhao Yazhi washed up and went to bed.

Zhao Yazhi and her younger sister share a room.

At this moment, my younger sister has fallen asleep.

My little sister just put down the pillow and started snoring soon after.

But she stared with her eyes clearly divided into black and white, tossing and turning in bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

My mind was filled with the voice, appearance and smile of a man in the flower market.

"We just met once, didn't we? Why does the shadow of a scumbag keep appearing in my mind? How strange! Is this scumbag poisonous? Am I poisoned?"

"Pah, pah, pah! That's a scumbag! I, Zhao Yazhi, won't do that."

Zhao Yazhi pulled the blanket to cover her hot face, hiding in the blanket and muttering

No. 45, Nanluoguxiang, Beijing.

Qin Huairu and her sister gathered here after having their New Year’s Eve dinner and settling their children.

It was freezing outside, but the boiler in the house was burning brightly, making it as warm as spring.

The girls had just fallen asleep for a while when they heard the sound of firecrackers outside, one after another.

"Click!" Qin Huairu reached out and touched the light cord at the head of the bed, turning on the light bulb in the room.

Yan Jiedi rubbed her eyes and said, "I just slept for a while, and it's already past 12 o'clock?"

Ji Yufei said with emotion: "That's right! It's the first day of the new year now, and we are another year older!"

He Yushui: "Yeah! In the blink of an eye, I'm already 28!"

Qin Huairu laughed and scolded: "I'm almost 40 years old. How old are you? You are all calling me old. Aren't you just teasing me, your elder sister?"

"Oh! How dare we! Big sister, you are only a few years older than us, not old at all, you look like you are in your twenties."

"Yeah yeah!"

"."

Qin Huairu and her sister were lying on the kang chatting, and none of them seemed to be sleepy anymore.

Qin Jingru muttered heartlessly: "I don't know what the boss and Xiaomi are doing now? Will the camp set off firecrackers during the New Year? Will they eat dumplings in the evening?"

Before leaving, Jia Weidong told them that he would go to the camp to spend the New Year with Zhou Xiaomi, and he did not tell all of them about his plan to go to Hong Kong to celebrate the New Year.

He Yushui teased, "What's the matter, Jingru, do you want to be the head of the family? The head of the family has only been away for a few days, can't you bear it?"

Qin Jingru stretched out her hand and pinched He Yushui's chest, scolding with a smile: "Go to hell! Who can't stand it? I think it's you, little lady, who can't stand it!"

"Qin Jingru! Where are you pinching? I let you pinch me! I let you pinch me!" He Yushui showed no weakness and stretched out his hand to fight back.

"Are you still going to pinch it?"

"Just pinch! Just pinch! What can you do? Hahahaha."

Qin Jingru continued, and the two of them immediately burst into laughter in the bed.

Qin Huairu did not stop them. She waited until they stopped fighting before saying, "Alas! I didn't feel anything when the head of the family was at home, but when he was not at home for the New Year, I always felt like something was missing."

"Yes!"

"."

All the girls agreed.

Jia Weidong was not at home for the New Year, and the girls were really a little uncomfortable with it.

Qin Huairu turned off the light bulb in the room: "Alright! Go to bed early. We have to go to work tomorrow."

All factories and units do not have holidays during the Spring Festival and have to go back to work on the first day of the New Year.

If I tell you this, maybe no one in the future will believe it, but this is the fact.

The next day, early in the morning, Jia Weidong woke up on time after tossing and turning for most of the night. After stretching his arms, he gently moved Chu Xiaodan's long legs that were wrapped around him.

I got out of bed and found my sportswear from the closet. After putting it on, I sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed and began to meditate.

Although Jia Weidong usually leads a carefree life, he is still very serious about his physical exercise and dares not slack off at all.

People over middle age know that health is the capital for survival.

No matter how much money you make, it’s all in vain if you don’t have a good body to fight.

He didn't have that kind of system panel, so he couldn't see the specific effects of the exercise, but he could feel that he was getting stronger every day.

Hunyuan Yiqigong has infinite magical uses. It is the basis for him to remain invincible on the battlefield all day and all night, and it is also his daily homework.

As long as it's good for the body, the liver is done.

After finishing his homework, Jia Weidong went downstairs.

It was just dawn and the neighborhood was silent.

Is this New Year's Day?

At this time in the capital, the sound of firecrackers has probably already been heard everywhere, and the streets and alleys are filled with the smell of gunpowder.

Jia Weidong always felt like he had a fake Spring Festival.

To be honest, if there are no firecrackers during the Spring Festival, the festive atmosphere will be much less.

After practicing Tai Chi twice on the lawn downstairs, Jia Weidong trotted out of the gate of the community.

The streets were still brightly lit and the neon lights on the tall buildings on both sides were still on, but the noisy scene of last night was gone.

There are many pedestrians on the street.

They don't stroll on the streets, nor do they run to exercise like Jia Weidong.

They were all in a hurry, and from what they were saying to each other, one could tell that they were all devout believers going to the Wong Tai Sin Temple to burn incense.

Wong Tai Sin Temple is also known as Sik Sik Yuen.

It is one of the famous scenic spots in Kowloon Peninsula, Hong Kong, and one of the most famous temples in Hong Kong.

As the name suggests, the deity enshrined in the Wong Tai Sin Temple is Wong Tai Sin (also known as Red Pine Wong Tai Sin).

Legend has it that Wong Tai Sin is an immortal who can use his magical powers to bless people with peace and good fortune, and that he will "grant any wish" and is very effective.

Therefore, many Hong Kong people will line up on the night of New Year's Eve, just to be able to light the first incense stick at midnight on the first day of the New Year, in order to pray for good luck and a smooth year ahead.

However, in recent years, the first incense stick seems to be monopolized by the rich and powerful, and many ordinary believers who have no hope of competing for it have gradually changed to going in the morning.

But Jia Weidong doesn't quite believe this.

If burning incense and praying to Buddha can really make you rich, then ordinary people probably wouldn't even be able to enter a temple.

After running, Jia Weidong strolled back to Dongsheng Garden.

It was already bright.

Neither Lou Xiao'e nor her sister got up.

tired!

Jia Weidong did not alarm them either.

There are also many taboos on the first day of the Lunar New Year in Hong Kong.

Rushing children to get up early is one of the many taboos, along with breaking furniture, washing hair, buying shoes, taking naps, etc.

Since there was nothing to do on New Year's Day, Jia Weidong let them sleep until they woke up naturally.

After quietly going into the bathroom to wash up, Jia Weidong made himself a cup of tea, picked up a few newspapers, and sat alone on the sofa in the living room to kill time.

He sat there for more than an hour, and the newspapers in his hands were almost torn to pieces by Jia Weidong, before there was movement in the master bedroom.

The first person to come out was Lou Xiao'e. She was so sleepy that she didn't even bother to send Jia Weidong New Year's greetings. She hurriedly said, "Boss! It's almost 8 o'clock, right? Oh! I got up late! I got up late!"

"It doesn't matter! It's still early before 8 o'clock, and I don't have anything to do today anyway." Jia Weidong took a sip of tea and said with a smile.

"Something's going on! Something important! I'm going to wash my face!" Lou Xiao'e said as she hurriedly ran to the bathroom.

Jia Weidong: "???"
