Chapter 183 Thank you, I'll treat you to ice cream
Maple Avenue in the east of the city.
"I finally understand why Xiaobiji regards this place as a check-in holy place. Any photo taken here will turn out great." Ye Huiyu excitedly flipped through the photo album on his phone.
In just a few minutes, more than a dozen photos can be taken, and each one will be praised to the utmost when posted on WeChat Moments.
"You can feed pigeons in the square in front, and the price is not expensive." Jing Yilan simply acted as a tour guide.
"Come on, come on, I just saw a little trick for feeding pigeons. Let's go try it." She said, and pulled the four people to run towards the square.
Venetian Square.
There are several stone statues here that have been preserved from the Middle Ages. They are all famous people in Western history books. One of the statues is very familiar. It is Franz Witz, the author of the "Empire" trilogy and the talented musician who was beheaded by the tyrant.
Interestingly, the person who decided to erect this statue was the tyrant who beheaded Franz.
"I feel like this period of history has a bit of black humor," Jiang Fu complained.
But it's also normal. Who would share the same brain as a tyrant?
Ye Huiyu was puzzled. "Let's not talk about this. Why haven't I seen any pigeons in the square? Are they all gone?"
"If there aren't pigeons, there must be other tourist attractions." Tong Chuxue pointed to the spire tower in the distance. "That looks like an ancient building, mentioned in history books."
"That was also built by Tyrant William." Jiang Fu replied, and then sighed, "He really loves building all kinds of buildings."
Almost half of Nosti could see the buildings built by this emperor, and no one knew what the purpose was for this foreign emperor to build so many things. His subordinates even faithfully carried out his instructions.
If the Emperor of China dared to do this, there would be a high probability that a legend of a hidden imperial edict would emerge in some corvee area.
"That's right." Jing Yilan cleared her mind and suddenly realized that there seemed to be a woman on the side of the road who had been staring at them for a long time.
The woman was sitting in a wheelchair, wearing a black gauze hat and black gauze gloves, and a simple black long skirt. She had fair skin, and the only bright color on her body was the bright red silk scarf around her neck.
As red as the blood gushing out of the chest.
"Ma'am, I've bought everything you wanted." The nanny came over with a few bags and nodded. "It's good that you didn't run away during this time."
Normally, buying all these things, even the most troublesome ice cream chain membership card, wouldn't take much time. This person is a patient with limited mobility, but she still can't let go.
Because this person has done something even more outrageous than running away.
The woman didn't care, "M7030, are you afraid I'll run away?"
Although he is just a half-disabled person sitting in a wheelchair, he can make an ordinary wheelchair look like a throne.
"Yes, the master has instructed that you cannot leave the surveillance area, and the daily surveillance footage must be sent back for archival review."
The woman scoffed indifferently, "He still cares so much about those rotten fates."
The nanny was quiet for a while. She knew the man's temper very well, and it was best not to say anything in response at this time.
As they were talking, a strange wind blew up and the silk scarf around the woman's neck flew away.
"The wind is strong." She looked at the sky.
The scarf spun in the air, flew towards several girls taking pictures over there, and landed in the hands of one of them.
After a while, a girl came over.
"Auntie, your scarf." Tong Chuxue handed her the scarf.
"Thank you." The woman lowered her head and didn't extend her hand. She just smiled faintly, "We are quite destined to meet."
After that, she took out a coin from the nanny's arms and gave it to her along with the ice cream membership card in the bag.
"This..." Tong Chuxue was a little hesitant to accept it.
Returning lost property has been a virtue passed down in China since ancient times. Moreover, she was terrified to receive so many rewards just for picking up a silk scarf.
Just when I was wondering if this was a foreign version of a kidnapping scheme, the woman smiled.
"Don't be afraid. I just saw that you are about the same age as my daughter, and I have a good impression of you." She handed the things closer. "I am a patient. Can you bear to let me keep holding my hand up?"
"Sorry." Tong Chuxue stared at the face under the black veil, a little absent-minded.
For some reason, she vaguely felt that the face hidden under the black veil was familiar.
Only after she took the card back did she come to her senses.
"What's wrong? Are you scared?" Jing Yilan asked with concern.
Jiang Fu reminded, "I'm not scared."
Judging from the emotions she sensed, she was overwhelmed by surprise.
"That auntie, she...she said thank you to me and gave me this." Tong Chuxue was slightly stunned.
A coin with 777 engraved on it, an ice cream shop membership card.
"Ice cream card?" Ye Huiyu found it interesting.
Normal ways to say thank you are to give money or connections. I have never seen anyone treat someone to ice cream.
Jiang Fu just stared at the store name on the card in deep thought. After a long while, he spoke, "What does she look like?"
Hearing this, Tong Chuxue scratched her face and said embarrassedly, "I don't quite remember, it should be very beautiful."
After recalling for a while, she was suddenly shocked.
"Come to think of it, there were a lot of minor burn marks on her face and neck, but her aura was so stunning that I didn't notice."
The woman's manners were elegant and dignified, and even her smile didn't seem rude. Even though she was in a wheelchair, with that kind of temperament, she could easily sit on the throne.
Jiang Fu was stunned on the spot.
There was only one picture in her mind.
The woman stood at the dock, the flames engulfed her, but it seemed as if they were guarding her as she made her final exit.
"Fufu, if you're not sure, don't come back." She raised her hand and pointed into the distance. "I left something for you outside the island. Live a good life over there."
and also.
She opened her mouth, and the flames swallowed all the words, but Jiang Fu could still feel those burning emotions.
I love you.
From now on, please enjoy your freedom.
Jiang Fu reacted almost instantly. Looking back, he found that the woman in the wheelchair had already left.
"Fufu, what's wrong?"
Jiang Fu casually said, "I also want to see how amazing that auntie with extraordinary temperament is."
Jing Yilan could sense her uneasiness and knew she was hiding something, so she comforted her, "We'll see each other again."
That person should be someone very important to Jiang Fu, probably his mother.
"Thank you." Jiang Fu relaxed and thought for a moment, "Why don't we go get some ice cream and check if this card is real?"
After all, it was her mother's gift, she didn't want to waste it, not to mention...
Ten years ago in the winter, in the same city.
"Have you thought about what to do next?" Jiang Ren gently stroked her head.
The eight-year-old girl was much taller than before, and she could put her hand on it after touching the head.
"I haven't thought about it yet." Jiang Fu walked aimlessly.
The woman patiently guided him, "Think about it, what do you want to do now?"
Jiang Fu stared at the sign of a small shop on Maple Leaf Street and said, "Let's go have some ice cream."
She wanted to try what it was like to eat ice cream in winter.
