our supernatural life

Chapter 35 Xiao Family's Secret

The mandrill removal operation can be regarded as a complete victory, but the actual purpose of this operation is far from being achieved: first, no trace of Papa Wheat was found; .Grandma is very disappointed, but Maimai can come back safely, she has already recited Buddha's name.Shao Jing assured her again that he would find a way to prolong Mai Mai's life, and then the two returned to Binhai.

It is said that it is to find a way to prolong life, but how can it be so easy?Shao Jing spent a lot of effort on this, but so far there is nothing he can do.Fortunately, there are still five years to go, so Xiaomai suppresses his uneasiness for the time being and continues to operate his Chinese and Western snacks.Ye Ding is very diligent, and his craftsmanship is really passable. Coupled with Mai Shi's whimsical ideas, the business in the shop is booming.

Soon it was Christmas.Maimai plans to hold a lucky draw around this time to taste the food.He conceived six new snacks, and all the customers who came to buy dim sum can draw a lottery once, and if they are drawn, they will be given a new dim sum. After eating, they are asked to leave comments, which can be regarded as a promotion for next year's new products.And he has already made a webpage, taking pictures of all the snacks in the store and uploading them.To be honest, those hot siu mai and chocolate-coated cakes in the photos are really appetizing, and Dora has attracted many customers.Chun Chengzhu's successor to Ren Hui is also a businessman, and generously stated that they are responsible for all the raw materials for the new dim sum this time, and prepared some small gifts to join the Christmas event, but among the six new dim sum, at least There must be four kinds of monopoly in Chuncheng in the future, which makes Maimai very impressed by this person's good plan.

Shao Jing was not very pleased with Mai Mai's busy schedule.Compared to Wheat, he is considered an idler.Now he is working hard to study Buddhist scriptures. Occasionally Zhou Qi gets a business, and he will deal with it. Sometimes he has to go out of Binhai City, but most of the time he stays at home.Mai also heard from Zhou Qi that exorcising ghosts is almost all work. No matter what kind of ghosts, they will probably end up with a ghost in the end. Shao Jing has also tried to escape, but at least until now, he has not succeeded.Naturally, Zhou Qi only dared to say this to Mai Mai in private, and the two of them snickered and it was over, and he absolutely couldn't say a word in front of Shao Jing.

After Christmas, Shao Jing became irritable.For twenty days or so, Mai Mai only cared about the affairs of the store and ignored him, so the Eldest Young Master's patience reached the limit, and he directly pressed Mai Mai to the bed and tossed it all night, so he couldn't go to work the next day.

"Call Zi'er for me." Mai Mai's voice was a little hoarse, and she stood in front of the mirror and kept looking at the strawberry marks on her neck, which were everywhere, how to get to the store?Although you can hide it with your collar in winter, if you stay in the store for a whole day, you will definitely be seen by Zi'er and Ye Ding.

Shao Jing didn't have the slightest sense of being the culprit, so he picked up the phone and called Gui Zi'er perfunctorily, saying that Mai Mai couldn't go to work today, and asked her to look at the store more, and then hung up quickly.When he put down the phone, Maimai remembered: "Someone is coming from Chunchengzhu today."

"I'll talk about it tomorrow." Shao Jing walked up to him and sat down, and put him in his arms, "Or do you think you can talk to them now?"

Mai Mai wanted to bite him to death: "It's not all about you! By the way, there are no eggs at home, and the rice seems to be gone. After dinner, I will go to the supermarket with me to buy things."

Shao Jing's face stretched all of a sudden.Leaving wheat at home for a day is not for him to go shopping.Seeing his expression, Mai Mai grabbed her clothes vigilantly, like a little daughter-in-law who was about to be raped: "You have enough time! If you toss my waist again, I'm finished."

Shao Jing couldn't help being funny, put his arms around him and kissed him again.Mai Mai resisted with fists and kicks, helplessly speaking that he was really not Shao Jing's opponent when it came to fighting, and was crushed by him, kissing endlessly.Mai Mai felt that something was pressing on her leg again, and quickly hugged Shao Jing's neck: "My waist is really failing."

Shao Jing moved his body reluctantly, and muttered, "I've only done it a few times..."

Mai Mai rolled her eyes: "Everyone is like you, bird--"

Shao Jing pressed forward threateningly: "Say what?"

Mai Mai blinked: "Diligent."

Shao Jing looked at his slightly cunning appearance, and couldn't help saying, "You're really the same as before—" Suddenly remembering that Mai Mai didn't seem to like hearing about his past life, he swallowed the second half of the sentence for the first time.

Mai Mai knew what he was going to say after hearing the first half of his sentence, and couldn't help but tense in his heart.He couldn't remember the events of his previous life, so he always felt that his narration of Shao Jing was telling someone else's story, which was indescribably strange.Every time Shao Jing mentioned his past life, he couldn't help having a thought: What if he wasn't Shen Mobai?

Shao Jing patted his face lightly: "What's wrong? I got angry when I said something?"

Mai Mai came back to his senses and forced a smile: "It's okay." He sat up and straightened his clothes, "Let's go shopping."

Shao Jing looked at the sky: "It's almost noon, what to buy. Let's go, find a place to eat first, and we'll talk after eating."

Mai Mai followed him out, still thinking in a mess.Shao Jing didn't notice his thoughts, hooked his fingers with his fingers, swayed downstairs and drove.Looking at the fingers hooked together by the two, Mai Mai suddenly remembered the off-line boy with red lines.A red thread is bound for life. What if he can get a red thread to tie him and Shao Jing together?

People are afraid of thinking about something. Once Xiaomai's thoughts move like this, he can't let go of it for a day, and he can't stop thinking about it.But the question is, where can I find Xiaoyue?

"Mai?" Shao Jing finally realized that he was absent-minded, and shook his hand in front of him, "What are you thinking about?"

Mai Mai was taken aback for a moment, only to realize that he had already arrived at the entrance of the supermarket, and quickly came back to his senses: "It's okay, I'm looking for something to buy." He rummaged through his pockets and took out a small note, "The rice, eggs, and oil are all gone. , salt, vinegar, by the way, do you want to buy some detergent or something, and go back and wipe the mirror?" The bronze mirror was brought back by them, and Shao Jing threw things under the bed, Mai Mai During this period of time, I was busy with the things in the store, so I didn't care about it.

Shao Jing was impatient when he heard this list of things to buy: "Anything."

Mai Mai shook her head, pushed a shopping cart, and dragged Shao Jing in.There were a lot of people in the supermarket, and Shao Jing's face stretched even longer when he saw the crowd.Mai Mai pretended not to notice, dragged him to buy a bunch of things, and finally walked to a place selling cheap eggs, seeing the long queue, Shao Jing's face could be pulled to the ground even more.Mai Mai had no choice but to look around to see that there were fewer people in the aquatic product area, so she pushed Shao Jing and the car there: "Wait for me, I'll come back after buying eggs."

Shao Jing frowned: "Are you going to line up?"

Where did Mai Mai dare to say, "No, I'll go buy cheap ones, don't wait in line, and come back right away, okay?" Shao Jing reluctantly nodded.

Being waited on by him, Wheat didn't dare to pick it out carefully. He bought a few catties and hurried to the aquatic product area. After a dozen steps away, he saw Shao Jing leaning against the edge of the aquatic product area, fiddling with a lighter in his hand. , a whole body of impatience.There are some aunts in the aquatic area, and standing there as a young man stands out from the crowd and is extremely out of tune.The aunts wanted to buy live fish, and the ones they picked up splashed in the water, forcing him to dodge left and right.Mai Mai let out a laugh, and hurried over: "Wait a minute?"

Shao Jing's eyes were looking at other places, Mai Mai followed his gaze, and suddenly saw someone he knew: "Huh? Officer Shen."

"you recognize?"

"Oh, I used to work for a magazine. The landlord of the house they rented was named Shen Gu, a policeman. You know him too?"

Shao Jing shook his head: "I don't know him, but I know the person next to him."

Mai Mai had already seen a young man next to Police Officer Shen, covering his eyes with one hand, as if he was uncomfortable.Shen Gu pushed the shopping cart with one hand, put the other arm around the young man's shoulder, and stood at the cash register with half support and half embrace: "Do you know that person?"

Shao Jing snapped the lighter on: "That man is Zhong Lecen, the eldest grandson of Zhong's family in Zhongnan Mountain."

"A descendant of Zhong Kui's family?"

"Ah."

"Then he is also a celestial master?" Mai Mai couldn't help being a little excited when he saw a celestial master other than Shao Jing for the first time.

Shao Jing sneered: "He? He doesn't count. He has no spiritual power. Speaking of which, the eldest son of the Zhong family has the best talent for generations, but it happens that his generation has a different kind of talent."

Mai Mai remembered: "Oh, you said that it was at Zhong's house that the old Mr. Dongfang was invited to help the spirit for the first time, and the one who made the coming-of-age ceremony was Zhong Lecen's younger brother, right?"

"Yes. The eldest grandson has no spiritual power, but the second grandson has good talent, and has been designated as the heir of the Zhong family by default."

Looking at the young man's thin back, Mai Mai suddenly felt sympathetic: "People from the Tianshi family have no spiritual power, so they will be looked down upon by others?" You can tell from Shao Jing's tone.

Shao Jing said casually: "I heard that he is also gay and was kicked out by his family."

Mai Mai was startled: "He too? Then Officer Shen--"

Shao Jing said in disbelief, "You can tell by looking at it, it must be."

Mai Mai stayed for a while, and suddenly felt a kind of sad feeling: "Then if your family knows you--" will they also drive you out?

Shao Jing sneered: "Chasing me? Love chasing me or not. Zhong Lecen has no spiritual power. If he is the default heir, do you think the Zhong family will chasing him?"

Mai Mai was a little relieved, and saw Zhong Lecen leaning on Shen Gu's shoulder all the time, Shen Gu's arms surrounded him protectively. Although many people in line behind him looked sideways, he didn't care at all, and couldn't help feeling a little warm in his heart De: "I think he is doing well now."

Shao Jing leaned over knowingly: "Are you envious?" As he spoke, he put his arms around Mai Mai's waist, and pinched his buttocks by the way.Wheat almost jumped up and glared at him.Police officer Shen called it protection, Shao Jing called it molesting, okay?

Shao Jing's skin is as thick as a city wall, not to mention that he never takes other people seriously, and ignores the pointers of the aunts around him. Xiaomai doesn't have such tenacious nerves, and struggles to get out of his arms: "Don't make trouble, this is a supermarket."

Shao Jing didn't care, and was about to speak when the cell phone rang in his pocket. With one arm around Mai, he took out the cell phone with the other: "Zhou Qi?"

"Hey, young master, where are you now?"

"Supermarket. What's the matter?"

"Supermarket? Are you in the supermarket? Are you sure? When will you--"

"What's the matter!" Shao Jing interrupted impatiently, "Don't say I'm dead."

"Hey, hey, don't, don't hang up, it's really something. Do you remember what happened to the Xiao family last time?"

"The Xiao family in Jinyu Building? What's the matter?"

"Sigh." Zhou Qi sighed, "Can you come over now? The old man of the Xiao family is looking for you in a hurry. What happened this time is really weird, so come over and take a look."

Shao Jing frowned, obviously unwilling.Mai Mai hurriedly said: "Then let's take the things home and go there. Zhou Qi won't look for you if there is nothing wrong. Let's go."

Zhou Qi heard Mai Mai's words on the phone, and smiled: "My sister-in-law is still considerate, I said--" Shao Jing hung up in the middle of the sentence.

Mai Mai frowned: "Don't be like this all the time, Zhou Qi also helped us, don't be so impatient when he finds you."

Shao Jing put the phone back into his pocket, and said nonchalantly, "Zhou Qi doesn't care, we've always been like this."

Mai Mai sighed: "I know you guys are being petty. Zhou Qi knows your temper and won't take it to heart, but you are always so bad. Outsiders will think you are arrogant and don't give Zhou Qi face. Even if it is Good friends, you need everyone to be nice to each other. Besides, the better a friend is, the less you can let him lose face in front of outsiders, right? You said that the Zhou family used to belong to your Zhang family... attached to your Zhang family , right? Then you treat Zhou Qi like this, doesn't it make people think that you don't regard Zhou Qi as a friend?"

Shao Jing looked impatient at first, but finally nodded when he heard a thoughtful expression, "Got it. Let's go, we're still waiting over there."

Mai Mai's mouth was dry, seeing that he finally listened a little bit, he finally felt a little comforted in his heart, and at the same time deeply felt that Zhou Qi was really not easy...

After sending the things home, Shao Jing stepped on the gas pedal and headed straight for Beishan with Mai Mai.Xiao's house covers an area of ​​nearly a thousand square meters. Although Mai Mai has never been here, he knows the price of the land here. This villa can't be bought without tens of millions.There were two young men waiting at the gate of the villa. Seeing Shao Jing's car stop, they stepped forward and opened the door, and said respectfully, "Is that Mr. Shao? Mr. Xiao and Mr. Zhou are waiting for you in the living room." .Who is this--"

Shao Jing didn't even bother to answer, he just walked in, and the two young men reached out to block Mai who was walking behind at the same time: "I'm afraid this gentleman can't go in."

Shao Jing raised his eyebrows, turned around and slashed a young man's elbow with his palm: "Don't touch him!" Then he pulled Mai Mai to his side and said coldly, "If he doesn't go in, we'll leave."

The two young men glanced at each other, probably because they had been ordered not to offend Shao Jing, so although they looked embarrassed, they still moved out of the way.Shao Jing snorted, pulled Mai Mai and left.

Sure enough, Zhou Qi was sitting in the living room, smoking a cigarette, and there was a young and beautiful girl beside him, serving him a fruit plate.An old man was sitting on the sofa opposite him, wearing a woolen hat on his head, silently resting his chin on the head of a cane in his hand, his eyes were gloomy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.Zhou Qi stood up as soon as he saw Shao Jing: "Master, why did you bring Maizi?"

Shao Jing glanced at him and replied, "Take him over here to have a look."

Zhou Qi froze for a moment.He and Shao Jing grew up together, and he knew Shao Jing's bad temper very well. Originally, Shao Jing would never bother to answer this kind of question, but he asked why when everyone brought them here?So Shao Jing actually answered, which stunned him, and after a few seconds he said, "Let me introduce you, Mr. Xiao. This is Young Master Zhang's friend Maizi."

The old man raised his eyes and nodded casually: "Please sit down." He didn't look at Mai Mai at all, but only at Shao Jing, "Young Master Zhang, I invite you to come here today because I have something to ask for."

Shao Jing immediately sat down on the sofa, pulled Mai Mai to sit next to him, and said bluntly: "Mr. Xiao wait a minute, you refused to say a word about the Jinyu Building last time." Spit it out, now let’s talk about what you want to ask for—you don’t need to say the word, let’s talk about what you plan to tell us first.”

Mai now knew that this old man was Xiao Shiqi, the head of the Xiao Group. He still remembered that last time Shao Jing came back and said that the old man refused to tell them anything. , he started to run on people.Sure enough, Xiao Shiqi's expression changed, and he choked on all the words that followed.Shao Jing was not in a hurry, crossed his legs and leaned against the back of the sofa, with a relaxed and contented expression, which made Xiao Shiqi's face turn blue.

Zhou Qi waited for a few minutes, seeing that Shao Jing had suppressed Xiao Shiqi enough, he smiled and smoothed things over: "Young Master, Mr. Xiao is also an elder, don't be so aggressive. Mr. Xiao didn't make up his mind last time. So of course there are some things that we can’t tell us. Since this is the second time I’ve invited you here, then of course there’s nothing to hide, if there’s something I’ve kept hidden until now, isn’t it against me?”

Wheat smiled secretly.Zhou Qi and Shao Jing are really good friends, what they said made the old man run out.Sure enough, Xiao Shiqi's face became even uglier, and he coughed loudly.Shao Jing and the others thought he was trying to cover up their embarrassment, so they ignored him. Unexpectedly, the old man coughed up a mouthful of black blood, and when he spit out the black blood, there was a stench in the room, as if It's like rotten meat that has been rotten for three days.Shao Jing's face changed slightly, and his legs were put down: "Mr. Xiao, how long have you been here?"

Xiao Shiqi grabbed the paper towel next to him and wiped his hands, then smiled wryly: "Sure enough, Young Master Zhang has a family background, so you can see it right away. It's been a few months, just from-"

"After the incident in the Jinyu Building?" Shao Jing said after taking his words.
