Chapter 176 Really Poor

  In the evening, Li Qiao got off work, and as soon as he went out, he noticed Qin Jin under the shade of a tree.

  Mottled tree shadows hit the youthful and handsome face, the forehead was wet with sweat, and the breathing was a little short. Under the thin fabric, the broad chest undulated slightly.

   Obviously just rushed to the door.

  Her partner is so handsome!

  She happily trot over: "Ah Jin, let's go!"

  Qin Jin lowered his eyes: "So happy, the case is solved?"

  Li Qiao's smiling face disappeared, and he was extremely depressed: "No."

  It happened like this. In a big restaurant in the city, a couple of workers went to eat. During the period, the man went to the toilet, but the girl hadn’t seen her for a long time. When I asked the salesperson to look for it, the man was stabbed in the toilet and fell to the ground.

  The hotel called the police immediately, and when the police arrived, the person had already been moved to the door.

   Toilets were also scrubbed.

  The reason is that they are afraid that the blood will seep into the tiles and cannot be washed off after a long time, which will affect their future business.

  The scene was destroyed and no evidence was collected.

  No abnormal personnel were found around.

  Everyone thought it was a vendetta. They found the deceased and interrogated him for details, but found nothing.

   "I bought a train ticket No. 1. Regardless of whether the case is solved or not, you have to go to school." Qin Jin stepped on the bicycle and signaled Li Qiao to get on the car.

  Li Qiao planned on the 30th, but it was troublesome to change the ticket, so he silently agreed with his decision. "Okay. Where are we going?" The direction he walked was not towards the courtyard.

   "Going back to the countryside, the kitchen is ready to dry, I'll take you back to have a look." Qin Jin said.

  Li Qiao hummed, and chatted about the case again: "The person who was stabbed, his parents, brothers, and people around him all said that he had no enemies or rivals in love. Who do you think will stab him? It can't be for no reason, right?"

"I suddenly remembered a person who hung out with me a few years ago. He was from the old village. He was very fond of finding fault. He would touch people's faces and pick off their coats when they saw big girls being alone. I don't think this person is good enough, I don't want him to play, he even took a knife to cut me, and there is still a scar on his arm." Qin Jin stretched out his arm.

  Li Qiao took a closer look, and saw a shallow scar, which was not conspicuous. "This kind of person must be insane." Maybe this case was done by someone who was looking for excitement, so I will discuss it with my colleagues at work tomorrow.

  The two gossiped all over the place.

  Li Qiao stepped into the yard first, the ground was raised by about ten centimeters, the place where he walked was paved with stone bricks, and the yard was clean.

  The original kitchen shed has been converted into a spacious kitchen, divided into two rooms.

   One for cooking, one for storage, farm tools and weaving are neatly arranged.

  The old lady Qin smiled and said: "Hey, how is the house repaired?"

   "Very good." Li Qiao said with a smile, no matter how she tidied up the yard before, it was a mess, but now it is much better to have a place for generalization. "Grandma, I have five catties of food stamps and five catties of meat stamps. Here." She took them out and handed them to Mrs. Qin.

  The old lady Qin opened her eyes and raised her eyebrows: "Yo, it's still common throughout the country. My daughter-in-law is too capable."

  Yu Feng went out with a swill bucket, and when she heard that Li Qiao came back with food and meat tickets, she became jealous and poured dirty water into the alley. Secretly cursing: Send my granddaughter away without conscience, curse you for not being able to have children! Qin Erliuzi cut off his sons and grandchildren.

   I had dinner.

  The family goes out for a walk.

  Li Qiao talked about resigning and returning to Kyoto to report: "Grandma, the temperature in the north is two degrees lower than ours. You need to prepare some thick clothes."

  The old lady Qin said: "The crops in the field will be harvested in half a month. I will go there after I am done."

  Li Qiao can do it if he thinks about it. Grandma has no place to live there, and it is inconvenient to live in a guest house all the time. She rents the house first.

  Before going to bed in the evening, Li Qiao took out the iron box and counted his savings.

  Old lady Qin gave her two yuan a week, and she saved most of it.

   After taking care of the child, Aunt Xu Feng sealed 20 yuan to thank her for her contribution, and Qin Jin also handed over the money from selling pine nuts to her.

  Counting her salary, she already has one hundred and fifty cents.

   Put it in the village, the proper rich people.

   It’s not enough to see in the city. I don’t know if the rent in the city is expensive or not. If you pay three for one, she still has to find a house close to the school with a yard.

  Buy another bed, cushions, quilts, pots and pans, and miscellaneous things. I guess it will cost a lot of money, right? She sighed softly: "I'm so poor!"

  Qin Jin laughed: "How much money are you still poor? It's enough to marry a daughter-in-law."

   Li Qiao enviously said: "It's great to be a man. You only need to pay a little to get a woman. This woman can not only help him carry on his family, but also take care of his family. Why am I not a man?"

  Qin Jin said naively: "What should I do if you are a man?"

  Li Qiao laughed: "True love can transcend genders, and I can still love you."

   "Disgusting." Qin Jin felt goose bumps all over his body: "You are a man, I absolutely don't want you, and you don't love me either."

   "Don't pull it down!" Li Qiao put away the money and blew out the oil lamp to rest.

  The next day, Li Qiao and his colleagues discussed the case. Originally, their focus was on the deceased's enemy, but now they changed their direction and it became much clearer.

  After listening to her analysis, Ma Ling slapped her thigh: "It makes sense, why can't I figure it out? Let's check whether the nearby filing personnel have been in or out of the hotel."

  Xu Feng continued: "It's also possible that no one is jealous of someone who has a partner. Why don't you arrange a couple to have dinner and see if you can catch fish?"

  Xion Dong: "It's just you and Ma Ling."

  Ma Ling refused: "I won't give him a piece."

  Xu Feng trembled angrily: "It sounds like someone wants to be with you, I ask for a change!"

   "Okay, don't talk nonsense." Xie Dong ordered the two of them to have dinner after dark.

  The two stopped.

  Li Qiao looked at Xu Feng, then at Ma Ling, both angrily, and she said, "You two are like a couple having conflicts."

  Ma Ling blushed, and lightly reprimanded: "What nonsense."

  Xu Feng did not say a word.

   Li Qiao pursed his lips, they obviously look alike.

   Taking a break at noon, Li Qiao pulled on the horse bell and went shopping together to pick out gifts.

  Every time Qin Jin uses a match to light a cigarette, she decides to buy a lighter, but they are all plastic, which seems too cheap as a gift. Walked around, still empty-handed. "It's so hard to choose a gift."

  Ma Ling suggested: "It's better to buy a pair of leather shoes. There is a brother in my family who bought a pair of leather shoes when he got his salary in the first month of work. He said that a man only has face if he has leather shoes."

   Li Qiao thought it was funny, is there such a saying?

  She decided to listen to the horse bell, and went to a place selling leather shoes to pick it out.

  Ma Ling said: "Do you want to try it without your partner?"

   "I know his size." Li Qiao chose the style, negotiated with the salesperson, and bought a pair of shoes with size 43.

  If you have shoes, what will you do without clothes?

  Suits are not popular in this era, and there is no way to sell them in shopping malls.

  She chose a tunic suit.

   Adding up the two, the total is fifteen yuan and sixty-five cents.

  Ma Ling: "I'm really envious of your partner, who has a daughter-in-law who is willing to spend money for herself, and she is half of her wages when she makes a move."

   Li Qiao thought in his heart, you don't know how many precious things my partner gave me, what's a small gift in return?
