Chapter 124: Grapefruit leaves and red rope

 Two taxis, one in front and one behind, stopped at the gate of the juvenile detention center almost at the same time.

Jiang Lingxi looked over and saw Jiang Wenhui and Jiang Runcheng getting out of the taxi in front, and raised her feet to greet them.

Shen Yunqing followed her. When she arrived, she waited for Jiang Lingxi to finish calling her parents, and then also called her uncle and aunt.

Jiang Wenhui responded with a smile, her face full of joy.

Seeing that her son would be coming home soon, and that her daughter and son-in-law were loving and harmonious, she was so happy that she almost wanted to cry.

Jiang Runcheng tried his best to maintain the dignity of the head of the family, and his face, which was a little red due to the recent drinking, also softened, "Yunqing, you are so busy, why do you come here specially?"

  “Should.”

“Let’s go in.” Jiang Lingxi greeted, but she turned around halfway when she caught sight of a figure getting out of another taxi out of the corner of her eye, and her figure froze.

Shen Yunqing was the first to notice and followed her gaze.

When he saw the thin figure wearing a white school uniform, he raised his eyebrows slightly.

 Somewhat familiar.

 The next second, Jiang Lingxi shouted: "An'an."

 Shen Yunqing took a breath.

Xu Lingan was even more panicked after being called.

As soon as she got out of the car, she didn't notice that there were some people she knew around not far away, until she was called by a familiar voice. She subconsciously looked over and met the eyes of her sister looking over.

　　After hesitating for a few seconds, she jogged forward and said, "Sister."

After being surprised just now, Shen Yunqing has returned to his usual composure. He only looks at the little girl who looks like Princess Jin'an in front of him with a little unnoticeable scrutiny. However, Jiang Wenhui and Jiang Runcheng are starting to be surprised. .

“Xiaoxi, when did you get a younger sister?”

 They are parents who don’t even know!

“I recognized it myself.” Jiang Lingxi explained briefly. She was now more curious about why the girl in front of her appeared here. “Today is Tuesday, you are not in school, why are you here?”

"I, I'm here to pick you up." Xu Ling'an said and carefully looked at Jiang Lingxi's expression. Seeing that she didn't show anything strange, he continued to explain, "I have a brother next door who accidentally injured himself while trying to save me. Today is the day he is released from the juvenile detention center.”

Jiang Lingxi wanted to ask her what danger had occurred. It was serious enough that she was sent to a juvenile detention center. It was definitely not a trivial matter, but this was obviously not the time to say this. "That's right, let's go in together."

Xu Lingan looked at the three people who were looking at her and hesitated, "Is sister here to pick someone up too?"

"Well, come to pick up my brother. He is also out of the juvenile detention center today. By the way, these are my parents, this is..." When Shen Yunqing was introduced, Jiang Lingxi paused.

If Jiang Wenhui and Jiang Runcheng were not here, she could still call them friends, but now that they are both here, she had no choice but to honestly admit someone's identity, "Shen Yunqing, I am the target!"

Shen Yunqing tried hard to keep the corners of his mouth from rising.

Xu Ling'an's small mouth was wide enough to fit an egg in.

It wasn't until Jiang Lingxi patted her on the shoulder that she suddenly came back to her senses. She bowed politely to Jiang Wenhui and Jiang Runcheng, "Hello, uncle and aunt, I am Xu Ling'an."

He looked at his sister's partner again and said, "Sister, hello, brother-in-law."

After Shen Yunqing heard the name, he became more and more aware. Although he still didn't know how the two people knew each other, it didn't stop him from feeling that the brother-in-law's call was particularly beautiful, "Hello."

 After submitting your identity certificate at the gate, a staff member will go in and notify you.

After a while, the five people waiting at the gate saw two figures walking side by side.

Before her son could get closer, Jiang Wenhui couldn’t wait to shout, “Xiao Xu!”

Jiang Lingxu's pace towards the gate suddenly quickened, and Xu Lei beside him followed closely, "Look, my sister is here too, the one in school uniform." Jiang Lingxu could only look away, and met a pair of curved eyes. His eyes were stunned for a moment, and then his gaze fell behind Jiang Lingxi.

 When he entered the juvenile detention center, his sister was not married yet and did not even have a boyfriend.

Until half a year ago, his mother came to visit him. The first thing she said was that her sister had received a certificate, and she didn't even have a wedding, she just got married in a low-key manner.

 Speaking of which, they consider each other's brother-in-law and brother-in-law, and this is the first time they have officially met.

But with a brother-in-law like him, a rich man like brother-in-law should feel ashamed!

Jiang Lingxu paused at the thought of this, but Xu Lei soon grabbed his arm and started running all the way, "Why are you still lingering? Don't say you are still nostalgic for this rotten place!"

 “I didn’t!”

　　It’s just that I’m timid when I’m close to home!

After patiently listening to the staff's last instructions on the theme of 'Be sure to abide by the law when you go out', Jiang Wenhui looked at her son and called her "Mom" while standing in front of her, instead of being unable to touch him through the thick glass. , one couldn't help but burst into tears.

 “My Xiaoxu!”

In front of his father, sister and brother-in-law, Jiang Lingxu was hugged by his mother while she was crying. Jiang Lingxu was a little embarrassed and stiff at first, but when he noticed the dampness and heat on his shoulders, he realized that his vision was also blurry.

 “Mom, I am ignorant and I have made you worry.”

Jiang Runcheng patted his youngest son's shoulder heavily and said, "Just come out."

Jiang Wenhui and Jiang Lingxu were not the only ones crying. Xu Ling'an also started to sniffle when he saw the scar that was almost as long as a finger on Xu Lei's head, "Brother Xiao Lei, originally grandma was also coming, but she was The headache came back and the doctor refused to discharge me.”

“Why did grandma come to pick me up at such an old age? If you didn’t insist on coming, I wouldn’t want you to come. Is grandma feeling better now?”

 “Much better. Brother Xiaolei, where are you?”

"I'm fine. It doesn't matter who I am. Who can bully me?" Xu Lei finished with a confident look on his face. Seeing Xu Ling'an burst into tears, he smiled, and then pointed at Jiang Lingxu, who was still crying in Jiang Wenhui's arms. , "No, I also met a buddy in there, and we happened to come out together this time."

After Jiang Wenhui vented her anger, she finally remembered the business. She took out a grapefruit leaf branch from her bag, patted her youngest son, and muttered: "All bad luck will be gone, all bad luck will be gone..." and she patted Jiang Lingxu all over. give up.

 When he was about to put it back in the bag, he saw the brother and sister on the side again, "Girl An An didn't bring this, did you want this from me? Grapefruit leaves can remove bad luck."

Xu Lei was about to shake his head and refuse, because he didn't want to be stupid and get slapped all over his body by this thing.

But he didn't allow him to refuse. Xu Ling'an had already walked over and shouted "Thank you, Auntie" and took the grapefruit leaf branch.

He had no choice but to open his arms and let Xu Ling'an pat him back and forth, shouting "all bad luck is gone".

“You are still in high school, do you believe this?”

Xu Lingan just pretended not to hear and patted him all over.

Jiang Lingxu only felt that his whole body was now filled with the fragrance of grapefruit leaves. "Is there no other ceremony?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a delicately woven red rope appeared in front of him, "Wear the red rope to get rid of bad luck and bring good luck, and you will be safe and happy in the future."

Jiang Lingxu's eyes followed the slender fingers holding the red string and slowly moved to his brother-in-law standing next to his sister. He always felt that this scene was more like an illusion.

 “Brother-in-law?”

This is the rich brother-in-law that his mother mentioned? Nothing wrong?

 “Hmm, hold out your hand.”

Jiang Lingxu stretched out his hand mechanically, watched helplessly as the red rope was fixed on his wrist, and moved his mouth, "Thank you, brother-in-law."

"You're welcome."

As soon as Jiang Lingxi looked away from the red rope, she met Jiang Wenhui's gaze: Did you two prepare it?

Jiang Lingxi: Can she say that she doesn’t know when this person prepared it?

 The hiding ground is quite tight!
