Chapter 428 People of Color
Jiang Ning leaned against the tree, the high-ranking poplar tree had been cleaned by him in advance, so there would be no mosquitoes.
He took out the black walnut wooden sign and continued to carve.
It is still an amulet. Compared with the previous jade pendant, this wooden plaque has a higher level of protection.
Ordinary people wear this wooden plaque, even if they fall from a [-]-story building, the spiritual shield that appears can still guarantee the safety of their bodies.
'I just don't know if the amulet will keep you safe if the plane crashes? '
Jiang Ning thought for a moment. With his current cultivation in the late stage of Qi refining, the engraved amulet may not be able to make people unscathed when the plane hits the ground.
The main reason is the limitation of materials. If better materials are used, it will be easy to do with his skills.
However, if Jiang Ning encounters such a situation by himself, he has a flying sword in his hand, and it is not difficult to escape.
In the real world, there are almost no accidents that threaten his life.
He raised his head, his eyes stretched, the sun hung like a fireball in the sky, the clouds seemed to have been burned and disappeared without a trace, but the shade under the trees was refreshing and pleasant.
He arranged the cooling formation in advance.
Xue Yuantong swayed on the swing: "Chuchu, you start school tomorrow."
"Yes." Xue Chuchu's expression was normal, but her heart was a little dazed. In the past few days, life at home has been so smooth that she almost forgot about the hardships of school.
"And my vacation has just begun." Xue Yuantong was complacent.
Xue Chuchu suddenly envied her a little bit. No. [-] Middle School was under too much pressure. As a student of Qingbei Class, the best middle school in Yuzhou City, it was difficult for her to relax.
"Chuchu, you study hard at school, don't worry, I will enjoy the summer vacation that you can't enjoy for you!" Xue Yuantong patted his chest with awe-inspiring righteousness.
Xue Chuchu had complicated emotions.
At this time, in the open space at the door, Uncle Zhang was carrying the bucket on the left and following the dog on the right, sweating profusely from the heat.
"Uncle Zhang, did you touch the loach?" Seeing this, Xue Yuantong shouted.
After hearing this, Uncle Zhang raised the bucket and said, "There is no loach in the ditch. I drained the water, and I didn't even see a shadow of it!"
Jiang Ning smiled and didn't speak. He was able to touch the loach because his spiritual sense swept all the puddles and ponds around him. Ordinary people don't have this ability.
Uncle Zhang was cursing and cursing non-stop. He thought he would have a good harvest, but his busy work was in vain. If he had known earlier, he might as well lie down at home.
Seeing his miserable state, Xue Yuantong felt that Jiang Ning was too capable.
"You guys did a good job with this hammock!" Uncle Zhang praised.
Xue Yuantong: "Jiang Ning did it."
Uncle Zhang: "I reckon, you won't be able to sit in this hammock for long in the future, it's just cheaper."
Mentioning this name, Xue Yuantong's expression changed. She had a deep understanding of how difficult Dongdong was. It was also in the last two days that Dongdong was stung by a hornet and stopped.
But if the other party sees the hammock, they will definitely come and snatch it.
'what can we do about it?Unless every time you finish playing, you take it down and take it home. 'Xue Yuantong thought hard.
But that would be too much trouble.
Jiang Ning said: "There is no need to worry."
After Uncle Zhang heard this, he said cheerfully, "Ningzi, I would like to advise you, don't beat him up. Last time he dropped my mobile phone, you saw it too. Old women are the most snarky."
Uncle Zhang kindly reminded them that he knew Jiang Ning's strength, a slap could take half of Dongdong's life.
Jiang Ning: "It's okay, I have other ways."
Xue Yuantong: "What way?"
Xue Chuchu also watched over, she also wanted to see how Jiang Ning dealt with the brat.
"The secret must not be revealed." Jiang Ning chose to keep it secret.
Uncle Zhang spoke a few words, then suddenly asked, "Have you finished eating the loach you caught yesterday?"
He prepared the ingredients for burning loach this time, but he felt empty, so angry!
Xue Yuantong stepped forward and said, "I still have a catty left!"
Uncle Zhang: "That's a good relationship. I bought two catties of freshly slaughtered beef and tendon meat in the morning. Can I exchange one catty for your loach?"
The price of wild loach is not as good as beef tendon meat.
Xue Yuantong ate loach yesterday, and heard about beef today. She consulted Jiang Ning and Chu Chu for their opinions, and finally made a decision, "Success!"
She and Jiang Ning exchanged buckets for beef.
After she went home and washed it, she adjusted the sauce and started to cook the beef. She was going to make cold beef at noon.
Xue Chuchu got out of the way, and Xue Yuantong was lying on the hammock alone, huddled in it very comfortably.
"Jiang Ning, do you believe that I can fly?" Xue Yuantong said.
"Do not believe.'
"Then look!" Xue Yuantong lay down and exerted himself.
The hemp rope began to shake back and forth, but the shaking was not severe at first, and Xue Yuantong was peaceful for a long time.
Swinging relies on inertia. Every time the swing reaches the highest point, Xue Yuantong controls the center of gravity, and the swing gets bigger and bigger.
Xue Yuantong twisted his body and flew higher and higher, roaring astonishingly.
Xue Yuantong giggled and continued to exert strength, Xue Chuchu's eyes were worried, for fear that something might happen to her.
At first, Xue Yuantong was still laughing, but then she couldn't control the strength, and the hammock almost flew out, she couldn't laugh anymore, she was frightened and struggled with her hands, but it was useless.
The hammock swung to the highest level, swinging 360°, Xue Yuantong screamed, wrapped in a woven bag and turned around, fascinated.
Jiang Ning laughed out loud.
"Jiang Ning, save me, save me!" Xue Yuantong called, feeling as if she was about to die.
Xue Chuchu hurriedly ran to the tree, trying to hold on to the hemp rope, but the swing was so powerful at this time that Xue Chuchu was almost blown down.
Seeing this, Jiang Ning took advantage of the swing and swung in another direction. He walked to the middle, and Xue Yuantong slammed into Jiang Ning by the wind.
With this blow, an ordinary person would even be knocked down, but Jiang Ning grabbed the whistling hammock in his hand with a little relief.
Xue Yuantong stayed at a height of more than one meter, clutching the woven bag with both hands, his face pale.
Jiang Ning slowly let go, and the hammock, which had lost power, stayed at the lowest point, almost still.
Xue Yuantong's heart was pounding, if it wasn't for Jiang Ning, she might have flown out.
Xue Yuantong got off the hammock tremblingly, and there was almost a shadow.
Xue Chuchu was also speechless, but Tongtong knew how to play in a hammock so thrillingly.
"Are you okay?" she asked.
Empress Xue Yuantong was terrified, she looked at Jiang Ning, pretending to be calm: "What can I do, a mere hammock, was I cool just now?"
She imitated Jiang Ning, standing proudly with her hands behind her back.
Xue Chuchu: "It's not cool, you yell so loudly."
She felt ashamed for Tongtong.
Xue Yuantong put on a serious face and forced to play cool: "I made it loud on purpose."
Jiang Ning teased: "Really?"
Xue Chuchu couldn't bear to look at Tongtong anymore, she turned her face to the side, listening to Tongtong and Jiang Ning bickering.
Her personality is not as cheerful as Tongtong's, if she were, it would be absolutely impossible for her not to be able to do such a thing.
Thinking of the thrill of the swing just now, Xue Chuchu recalled that she and Tongtong grew up together. At that time, although Tongtong was lively and agile, she was never so brave. She was actually very good at protecting herself.
Don't do anything you know is dangerous.
Looking at it now, Tongtong is more active and courageous, and it seems that she is more childish than before...
She couldn't help thinking, 'reverse growth? '
'Or because of...Jiang Ning? '
Xue Chuchu lowered her eyes and remained silent.
At this moment, many pictures appeared in her mind, and the pictures kept flickering. Finally, two gray and white pictures froze.
One is the lonely figure of Tongtong sitting at the door when Xue Chuchu first entered Yuzhou City, followed her mother to the Heba bungalow.
And the other one was Tong Tong who was arguing with Jiang Ning beside him.
Xue Chuchu is pessimistic by nature, even memories are gray and white.
But at this moment, Xue Yuantong's staring eyes and dancing appearance gave her a vivid color.
It seems to be alive again.
Tongtong's crisp voice came from Xue Chuchu's ear, which was pleasant to the ears. Gradually, the gray-white Xue Chuchu also became colored in the colorful picture.
……
noon.
The beef was cooked, Xue Yuantong went home to cook, and Xue Chuchu helped.
Jiang Ning was in charge of moving the table, and put the lunch on the dining table, including cold beef, braised prawns, and a cold tomato. Of course, the tomato was not from Huqi Mountain, so the taste was relatively ordinary.
Xue Yuantong took two bottles of canned yellow peaches, "It's from my mother's company, it doesn't contain preservatives!"
Jiang Ning took the can, unscrewed it, and poured it into the soup plate.
Xue Yuantong quickly scooped up a piece with a spoon. After freezing in the refrigerator, the flesh of the large yellow peach was cool. The flesh was thick and plump, tender and palatable, sweet but not greasy, even more delicious than fresh yellow peaches!
Xue Chuchu dawdled for a while, and waited for Jiang Ning to move her chopsticks before she tasted another piece of cold beef.
The beef is dripped with sesame oil, very fragrant and fragrant, spicy and slightly sour with vinegar, and has delicious chewiness.
Xue Chuchu was eating for nothing today, and she felt guilty, but she ate a lot again, and she always felt guilty.
Summer is just right for such a meal, it was pleasant at first, but in the middle of the meal, a black and strong little boy ran out of the neighbor's house, and it was Dongdong who came.
Xue Yuantong stopped with his chopsticks.
Dongdong has a strong self-healing power. Holding a slingshot in his hand, he scanned the surrounding environment, and suddenly found something unusual. There was actually a swing in the woods in front of him!
There is no doubt that the swing is attractive to children, and he stared straight at the swing.
Without further ado, Dongdong walked through the open space illuminated by the big sun, like crossing a battlefield, and arrived at the position of the swing.
"Jiang Ning, Jiang Ning, what should I do?" Xue Yuantong touched her with a worried face.
Jiang Ning's expression remained unchanged, how could he allow others to snore on the side of the couch?
"Don't worry, I have a way."
When Dongdong saw the hammock among the trees, he roared excitedly: "Hammock, hammock!"
He took a few steps back, ready to jump into the hammock, and would it damage the hammock?
This is out of his consideration, isn't it just a hammock?
Dongdong was about to attack, at this time, Jiang Ning's consciousness moved, and the caterpillar on the tree, that is, 'foreign hot pepper', suddenly fell from the tree, falling gently on Dongdong's dark neck like a sprinkling of water.
Yang Lazi gave Dongdong a gentle blow.
Dongdong felt that there was something wrong with his neck, and when he reached out to touch it, it felt hairy.
He looked at his hand, and saw a fluffy, green, brightly colored bug that made people feel uncomfortable just looking at it.
Dongdong knew that this was a 'foreign hot pepper', and he let out a scream of "Aww", and was thrown away by the foreign hot pepper, howling earth-shatteringly.
The fear of being stung by a wasp came again, and his neck was burning with burning pain. At this time, the acidic venom secreted by the peppercorns had already exerted its effect.
"Grandma, grandma!" Dongdong ran home while howling.
The fat old lady hurried out when she heard the tragic situation of her grandson.
Dongdong rubbed his neck and cried, "I was stung by a peppercorn!"
The fat old lady scolded twice, and hurried to get soapy water.
As for Xue's family, the atmosphere was very peaceful. The three of them witnessed Dongdong's victimization all the way. Xue Chuchu always felt very strange:
"Jiang Ning, is this your solution?"
Xue Yuantong thought that she was not stung by a foreign hot pepper when she was swinging before, and secretly rejoiced.
Although Dongdong was in trouble, the existence of foreign spicy peppers also caused troubles to Xue Yuantong.
Xue Yuantong almost didn't dare to play on the swing.
Jiang Ning peeled a shrimp slowly and said, "That's right, it's my method, I can manipulate bugs."
Xue Chuchu thought he was talking nonsense, how do people control bugs?
Xue Yuantong's eyes brightened: "Really?"
"Really, I used magic."
"Can I manipulate?"
"You can't." Jiang Ning said.
Xue Yuantong was slightly depressed.
Seeing her behavior, Xue Chuchu felt strange, Tong Tong, who is so smart, would believe Jiang Ning's words to fool her?
Jiang Ning was very satisfied, he nodded, and said: "That's my magic trick, you can play it at ease, you won't be stung."
Xue Chuchu thought to herself: 'Is he teasing children? '
……
At the same time, the Yuzhou Center Building.
Changqingye Company, meeting room.
In a small space, more than a dozen people sat around a rectangular conference table.
A thin but energetic middle-aged man wearing glasses, pointed at the PPT projected by the projector, "The above is the process of this annual meeting, and everything has been arranged."
Shao Shuangshuang leaned on the boss chair in the center, played with the wooden sign, and dexterously turned her fingers. She nodded:
"next."
A manager stood up excitedly. He was very strong, with a height of 1 meters. His voice was thick:
"Mr. Shao, the results of our internal voting for the several new products you arranged last time have come out."
He clicked the mouse, and the projection screen changed, and a few lines of clean and concise data appeared at a glance.
Sleep aid, acne, whitening, eyesight.
"What do you think?" Shao Shuangshuang squinted her eyes, the mole at the corner of her eye was particularly obvious.
Lin Han, an urban elite in a suit, was actually in the conference room. She was obviously the person in charge sent to Yuzhou by the Lin Zhongsheng Group.
Lin Han scanned Shao Shuangshuang's fair and flawless face, and said, "I suggest developing whitening products first. In recent years, whitening skin care has become a hot topic on social media platforms, and the whitening skin care market continues to expand..."
She listed a few points, and continued: "The whitening market is more popular than the hair growth market, and the profit is extremely considerable, and it is also the market with the most intense competition."
Hearing this, the middle-aged man wearing glasses said: "Mr. Lin, let me interject. If whitening products are launched, how do you think the price will be? Will it follow the current unified price?"
Lin Han smiled: "Of course it's graded pricing. We want money from ordinary people or rich people."
Ding Shuyan was also in the conference room, but she was an observer.
