After picking up the young master lost by the wealthy

"Are you awake? Why are you still awake?"

When Jiang Yao opened her eyes, she didn't get used to the glare of the light, and heard the landlord's voice first.

Xiaoci sat beside him worriedly, "Brother."

Jiang Yao's throat moved, propped up his body, and sat in a daze for a while.

Landlord: "Go into the house and take a look. He hasn't thrown away his things yet, so he will take out anything he needs."

Jiang Yao stood up, Xiaoci was worried about him: "Brother..."

Jiang Yao waved his hand: "I'm fine. Where is the key, I'll go and see."

The landlord turned around and went into the house, and took out a large bunch of keys, rusty ones, scattered over a dozen rooms.

Among them is the smallest one, which is Liu Yang's key.

Jiang Yao opened the door, and there was a musty smell in the room.

The landlord slapped his nose: "I checked, he cut his wrist and died in the bathroom. I knocked on the door in the morning and found him, there was blood all over the place, but the water was turned off. You said this kid is fine, why? I just died, and before I died, I knew to save me some water bills, and the rent was paid in advance..."

Liu Yang has very few things, a quilt, and four books on the table, which are the four classics.

Jiang Yao turned to the first page of Dream of Red Mansions, and found that he had written Chinese pinyin on the characters he didn't know.

Under the Dream of Red Mansions, there is also a notebook, the kind bought in a small shop, with a password.

Jiang Yao opened the notebook without hesitation, and a photo of him and Jiang Qingshan fell out.

Both of them are very young, as if they were 20 or [-] years old. They were photographed in the West Lake. There is a stone tablet next to it: Welcome to Hangzhou West Lake.

In the notebook, there are scattered records of small things with Jiang Qingshan these years.

When he was with Jiang Qingshan, Liu Yang was very happy between the lines.I like to fantasize about the future of the two of them, fantasize about them traveling to many places, and more often mention that Jiang Qingshan is very talented and a college student. Being able to be with me is because of myself.

I wrote intermittently for several years, until a few months ago, Liu Yang wrote hesitantly in his notebook: Qingshan and his teacher are very close, which made me feel uncomfortable. I asked him, and he said that I was thinking too much.

Afterwards, the panic and uneasiness in his diary increased.

Jiang Qingshan coaxed them to stay together forever, and even bought a pair of rings to appease Liu Yang.

Later, he told Liu Yang that he had established a good relationship with Mr. Chen in order to enter the magazine. Later, Liu Yang found out that a woman's long hair appeared on him, so he went to question Jiang Qingshan. The two had a big fight. It was the time when Jiang Yao bumped into her.

At the end of the notebook, there are only a few short sentences.

"I live on Tianmu Mountain Road. I can't see the mountain when I open the window, but I can only see another building."

"Today's weather is fine, but it's a pity I won't be able to see it again in the future."

Jiang Yao closed the notebook: "Let's go."

Xiaoci said: "Don't you want the rest?"

Jiang Yao: "No more, just throw it away."

The landlord told him that Liu Yang's body was in the police station, and when Jiang Yao went to collect the body, he met Zheng Jingxing.

The two hadn't seen each other for several years, and when they saw Zheng Jingxing again, Jiang Yao didn't recognize him.

It was Zheng Jingxing who recognized him first and asked Jiang Yao to have a meal. Jiang Yao didn't have the heart to deal with him, so he just took Liu Yang's body to the funeral home.

The files show that Liu Yang's hometown is in Yunnan, his parents are farmers, and he left early. Because he is a "pervert", none of his relatives are willing to come to deal with his funeral.

The neighbors who got along with him didn't want to be tainted by this bad luck. In the end, in Liu Yang's farewell room, there were only him, Xiao Ci, Jiang Yan, Si Mao, and Lao Hu who hurried back from Shanghai.

Jiang Yan was still young and couldn't understand what death was. He stood in front of Liu Yang's coffin with his eyes open, and asked curiously, "Why is brother Liu Yang still not moving?"

Lao Hu touched his nose, and had no choice but to come up with an old-fashioned saying: "He went to a far away place, and he will come back after a long, long time."

Jiang Yao spat out two words: "Dead."

Jiang Yan listened to Jiang Yao's words and asked, "What is death?"

Jiang Yao: "When he dies, he is gone. I will never see him again."

Jiang Yan listened thoughtfully, "I still want to see brother Liu Yang more, can he not die?"

Xiao Ci squatted down: "Come here."

Jiang Yan slammed into Xiaoci's arms with short legs: "Second brother, my legs are so sore."

Xiaoci picked him up and looked at Jiang Yao silently.

The funeral parlor offered to burn incense, Si Mao put three sticks of incense on it, and said in a low voice: "Go well, have a good pregnancy in your next life, and never meet him again."

Lao Hu and Jiang Yao pooled their money to buy Liu Yang a piece of land in Nanshan Cemetery, allowing him to be buried in Hangzhou.

For the next few days, Jiang Yao didn't speak much, and remained silent for a while.

On June 21st, the results of the college entrance examination were released. Lao Hu got his wish and was admitted to the China Academy of Art.

Xiao Ci was successfully promoted to the No. [-] Middle School, and Jiang Yan was sent to the preschool class of the kindergarten. On the first day of entering the kindergarten, ghosts and wolves were howling, and his cries could be heard in a three-mile radius.

During the summer vacation, Jiang Yao entrusted his family to Xiaoci, and planned to go to the Shanghai Diamond Exchange with Lao Hu.

Their online store is getting bigger and bigger, catching up with the good time of the rise of the Internet, the monthly sales volume is very considerable, and the supply exceeds the demand.The store has gradually changed from purchasing and selling jewelry to original design of niche jewelry.

Although Lao Hu's paintings are extremely bad, the things he designs are quite popular with little girls.

At the beginning, due to the shortage of funds, the two only searched for some leftover materials in the Hangzhou jewelry market to cut, and no one else helped, so Jiang Yao was tossing at home alone.

After the demand increased, Jiang Yao was too busy, so he found a few processing factories to cooperate with, and only did design by himself.

However, the processing factory is responsible for the two processes of raw material procurement and processing, and the profits are extremely high. When it comes to Jiang Yao, the percentage points are scraped off, and he can't make much money.

Moreover, most of the processed jewelry is defective, and the store has more and more negative reviews. Jiang Yao decided to purchase raw materials by himself.

Xiao Ci sent Jiang Yao to the East Railway Station.

In [-], the East Railway Station hadn’t been renovated, it was pretty dilapidated everywhere, and there were no high-speed trains, just green leather trains.

Xiao Ci and Jiang Yao have a secret base, they have watched trains since they were young, and in a blink of an eye, now it is Jiang Yao's turn to take the train.

After passing through the security check, Xiaoci was delivered to the platform all the way. Before the train came, there were small carts selling boxed lunches on the platform, shuttling among the passengers to sell.

Lao Hu dragged the box, and said, "Then I'll go up first! You two are tired of it, and it's not half a year, it's just over a month, and I'll be back right after school starts."

Jiang Yao kicked him: "Get lost! You're the only one talking nonsense!"

He turned his head: "I'm leaving, you take care of them at home."

Xiaoci clasped Jiang Yao's hand: "Are you coming back in a month?"

Jiang Yao: "Come back, if you don't come back, will you help me go to college?"

Xiaoci lowered her eyelashes, looking aggrieved.

He was growing so fast, Jiang Yao was really afraid that Xiao Ci would be as tall as him when he came back this time.

"Brother, give me a kiss." After Xiaoci hugged him enough, she leaned on him to act like a spoiled child.

Jiang Yao: "How old are you still wanting to kiss? You're already in high school."

Xiao Ci: "I skipped a grade in high school, so it doesn't count."

Jiang Yao: "No kiss, no kiss, there are so many people watching."

Xiaoci suggested: "Then let's go to a place with fewer people to kiss."

Jiang Yao is speechless: Why does it sound so strange?

Impatiently, he kissed Xiaoci's face and sent him off: "Okay, I won't be in time if I don't get in the car."

Xiaoci pestered him: "I only kissed the face, but also kissed the mouth."

Jiang Yao looked around guiltily, and pushed him away ferociously: "There is no end!"

Xiaoci sneaked a kiss on his mouth, hugging Jiang Yao: "Brother must come back soon."

Jiang Yao: "Isn't there a mobile phone to make calls? It's like parting life and death."

He waved his hand and got into the car.

Xiaoci stood in front of the station, staring at him intently.

Old Hu propped his chin up, and said cheerfully, "Look at your brother, he looks like a little daughter-in-law who sent her husband to work in the city."

Jiang Yao: "You don't have a metaphor, do you?"

Old Hu: "Isn't it? Look at his eyes?"

Jiang Yao looked at Xiaoci through the car window and said with emotion: "As expected of my younger brother, he is so fucking handsome."

Old Hu: "You are quite boring."

Jiang Yao came to Shanghai for the first time, in order to save money, she stayed in an express hotel with Lao Hu.

It was already noon when we arrived in Shanghai. After Jiang Yao had a meal at Lanzhou Ramen, he took the subway directly to the Diamond Exchange.

The company that applied for membership was the company of Lao Hu's parents. After checking, the two entered the building.

The inside of the exchange is very large, surrounded by glass, and the marble floor can reflect people's shadows.

Both of them had just grown up, and they walked around the exchange with a huge sum of money in their arms, not sure what to do.

Fortunately, the procedures for buying diamonds are not troublesome, and Jiang Yao doesn't buy many. He just wants to make a few classic models and increase the price. After buying them quickly, Jiang Yao and Lao Hu go out the door.

When they arrived at the gate, they were stopped by security guards and asked them to wait on the sidelines for a while.

Old Hu looked at the security guard in puzzlement. The security guard was very embarrassed, and explained in a soft voice: "There is a big client and his wife coming, and they are outside the door right now. After they come in, you can leave on your own." go."

Lao Hu let out a sigh: "What a big card."

Jiang Yao had no choice but to stand against the glass window behind him for a while, playing with his visitor ID in boredom.

In less than a minute, two rows of bodyguards appeared outside, surrounding a car, standing in all directions.

Lao Hu said "Wow": "Dual license plates, Hong Kong cars."

Jiang Yao followed his line of sight and looked over.

Lao Hu was very excited: "Damn, this license plate number is awesome, this car must have tens of millions."

Jiang Yao: "It's not your car, why are you so excited?"

The car door opened, and a woman in a red dress got out of the car. She was elegant, young and beautiful.

Immediately afterwards, another middle-aged man came down and was personally received by the boss of the exchange.

Old Hu happily appreciated the scene, "This is a rich man, do you think we can get along to this level?"

Jiang Yao took out her mobile phone and sent a text message to Xiao Ci, perfunctory Lao Hu: "You continue to dream, no one will stop you."

Old Hu: "Look at this girl, she looks better than celebrities. The celebrities in Hong Kong are all married to wealthy businessmen, and I think this girl looks familiar to me."

Jiang Yao didn't even raise her head: "Which woman do you think doesn't look familiar?"

Old Hu: "I think this guy looks familiar too!"

He said it casually, but the more he looked at the rich businessman, the more he looked familiar. He bumped into Jiang Yao: "Hey, don't you think he looks a bit like Xiaoci?"

Jiang Yao glanced up: "Where does it look like? My brother is not so greasy."

"What's so greasy, you hate the rich, she's obviously good-looking, and she's a good-looking talent."

Jiang Yao: "A man of good looks is a fart."

He took a second look and was a little surprised: It really looks like Xiaoci.

Jiang Yao hurriedly texted Xiaoci, teasing him.

- Just saw a rich guy who looks a lot like you.

Respond in seconds.

- I will also have money in the future, and then raise my brother.

Jiang Yao laughed and told him to hurry up to preview the high school textbooks.

When he and Lao Hu came out of the exchange, it was already dark.

Back at the hotel, counting the diamonds, Jiang Yao locked him in the safe.

In the next month or so, the two went to the market several times, visited hundreds of jewelry stores in Shanghai, and selected seven or eight classic styles to take back for research.

Before school started in September, Jiang Yao returned to Hangzhou by train.

After getting out of the car, Xiao Ci hugged him tightly, Jiang Yao pulled him away: "Let me see how tall I am?"

Xiao Ci pursed her lips: "Brother has turned black."

Jiang Yao still loves beauty, so he quickly looked at his arm: "Where is it black? If you make money, you will turn black. Men look better when they are black."

Xiaoci: "I like older brothers who are whiter."

Jiang Yao hooked his shoulders and walked home: "Don't want the darker ones?"

Asking as they walked, nothing major happened at home, and the money left was enough.

When Jiang Yao got home, he put the diamond in the safe at home and covered it with a quilt.

After thinking about it, he still felt unsafe. He glanced at the balance in the card, and planned to buy a smaller house in Hangzhou after a while, decorate it and live in it.

On September [-]th, the university term started, and Jiang Yao returned home after reporting and started cutting diamonds.

Lao Hu's design draft had already been delivered, and it was spread out on the bed in a pile.

Xiaoci fiddled with a pile of diamond rings on the bed, big and small, all brought back by Jiang Yao from Shanghai.

One of them was particularly beautiful, and Xiaoci played with it for a long time, "Brother, do you want to sell these diamond rings?"

Jiang Yao stared at the machine intently, "Well. I don't need it. I'll sell it online when the time comes. Just lower the price a bit."

Xiaoci picked up the diamond ring in his hand: "Brother, I want this."

Jiang Yao glanced distractedly: "Then I'll see you off."

After cutting, Jiang Yao stretched.

Xiao Ci: "Don't you ask me why I want a diamond ring?"

Jiang Yao was stunned for a moment, and found that the diamond ring in Xiao Ci's hand was a woman's. He immediately became alert: "You don't want to give it to someone else, do you?"

Xiao Ci: "No."

Jiang Yao looked at him suspiciously, and suddenly remembered that Xiaoci was already a high school student this year.

High school, the peak period of puppy love.

Jiang Yao never cared about Xiaoci's relationship status, and asked tentatively: "When you signed up, were there any good-looking girls in the class?"

Xiaoci: "I didn't pay attention to it."

Jiang Yao breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. Although I'm in high school, I still want to tell you, it's best not to fall in love early."

Xiaoci: "I won't fall in love early."

At night, after coaxing Jiang Yan to sleep, Xiao Ci went to the attic.

Half a year ago, the attic was transformed into a room for him and Jiang Yao, with a bigger bed in the middle, so they didn't have to squeeze together like before, let alone worry about falling off the bed.

But Xiao Ci still likes the old crib.

After a day of intense concentration, Jiang Yao was too tired to fall asleep.

Xiaoci carefully climbed onto the bed and lay beside Jiang Yao.

After a while, he grabbed Jiang Yao's right hand and secretly put the diamond ring on Jiang Yao's ring finger.

Jiang Yao's hands are white and tender, with thin fingers, which are very suitable for wearing a lady's diamond ring.

Xiao Ci thinks that the diamond in this ring is too small to match his brother, and he has to spend money to get a bigger one.

He kissed the diamond ring, then kissed the back of Jiang Yao's hand, and fell asleep contentedly.

The author has something to say: Xiao Ci: Earn money to buy a big diamond ring for his wife.jpg
