Inside the study.

There was not much error with Ye Xiuhe's conjecture, Guan Youshou called Qi Lirong at first, and he still called the other party's office directly.

Obviously said that he didn't work overtime tonight but waited for a temporary outing, and it was false to say that he was not worried. learned on the phone that Mei Lao was indeed temporarily in the unit, and he was relieved.

hung up the phone, and at this glance, the time was almost seven o'clock in the evening, and the time before the call agreed between him and Ma Zhenzhong was only more than half an hour in advance.

Guan Youshou wanted to call his good brother during the day, Ma Zhenzhong was not guilty, and he didn't need to go here to call, but Ma Liutun had not installed a phone until now.

There is a post office in the commune, and you can also go to Cheng Hao's office. But during the day, it is not convenient for many people to talk, or Ma Zhenzhong likes to travel as a night owl.

Although there is still more than half an hour before the agreed call time, it is really as Guan Youshou expected, the person has already arrived, and there is still a long time to wait.

And going to his side, it is more convenient than calling at work, and it is faster than calling at the post office, but it takes a while to change lines during the period.

This is also the reason why Guan Youshou has never liked to talk on the phone, the cost of the call is secondary, and it is better to hear the sound than to see a few words.

But the key is slowness, and you have to give advance notice.

In case it was not a telegram to inform you of the time of the phone call, but an appointment in the letter, well, after a long time, maybe something happened temporarily, or you forgot about it.

This phone call was connected, and it was called a hilarious.

On the other end of the phone, you are gossiping, is there something wrong with the third brother, I just say the third brother, and he will say again, who am I, don't shout nonsense first.

On the phone, Guan Youshou laughed heartily, laughing and laughing, his eyes were a little red. One by one, he called out the other seven nicknames of his eight brothers.

What is Brother?

It was the brother who would come and wait for him to make a phone call at night when the water was dripping into ice, and it was the brother who asked the third/third brother what was going on as soon as he opened his mouth.

"I'm fine, it's just that the New Year is coming, and I want to call you. How have you been doing lately?

It's not that buddies look down on you, you say that you write this and that every time you write in the letter, it's good, whatever, why don't you just blow it to the sky?"

The other end of the phone burst into laughter instantly, and Ma Zhenzhong laughed and scolded them not to grab the phone microphone. The laughter was so loud that even Guan Ping'an, who had just pushed the door in, almost covered his ears.

"Third brother, I'm the fifth, when will you come back? You can't do it if you're not at home, they're all reversed one by one, hey, you still don't know how to respect the old and love the young. ”

"When you call, don't make a fuss yet, get serious. The third child, I am a junior high. Don't worry, we're all fine, what's going on over there?"

"I'm fine, really. ”

"I wasn't bullied by my leadership colleagues, was I?"

"No, there are seven brothers behind me, who dares! Dazhong, does Ming Hai have a partner? And a few of you, whoever has a happy event must notify me in advance. ”

"OK/OK/No problem. ”

Guan Ping'an's brother and sister glanced at each other and approached their Lao Tzu funny. If it weren't for the fear that their voice would disturb their conversation, they would have been eager to call someone immediately.

"Third brother, do you have a holiday next year? You want to come back, let's go to Dazhong tonight and hurry up to grab a girl to give a bride price." ”

", it's my rabbit cub to grab it, whoa, what's the matter? Oh, by the way, the third child, everything is fine at home, and a few of us are watching." ”

"Hey, I haven't said it yet, don't be in a hurry. Third brother, I'm Dafa, did those two write to you? Originally, the two of them also wrote that there would be family leave this year, and they would pass through you first and then come back, why did they suddenly say that the plan had changed? Do you know what's going on?"

Guan Youshou glanced at the two children when he heard this, "I received a letter from them, saying that it was a job transfer." They're still weird and polite, they always send me a package, have you received it?"

"Yes, quite a few. A few of us were discussing a trip to their hometown to exchange for some seafood. Remember to pick up your package at the station in a few days. ”

"Don't, I'm really not short of ...... here"

"Ah, take care, it's time, hang up. ”

Listening to the beep of the phone on the other end, Guan Youshou couldn't cry or laugh.

"Daddy, do you want to dial it again?"

Guan Youshou shook his head, "Forget it, everything that needs to be said has been said." They receive our family New Year's gift every year, and it is impossible not to prepare, but they will be born when they say it. ”

The brother and sister nodded in unison.

"Why did you all come in, your mother?"

"Find Aunt Zhang to chat. Guan Ping'an saw that she Lao Tzu had put the telephone microphone, pulled Tianyou, and followed her Lao Tzu to the sofa chair in front of the desk and sat down.

"Want to ask your grandfather?"

Guan Ping'an shook his head again and again, "It must be fine." If anything, her father would not lean back in his chair with such a smiling appearance, but find an excuse to go out.

Guan Tianyou patted his sister's head and sat down beside her, "Dad, you just asked Brother Minghai if he has a partner, isn't there really one?"

Guan Youshou didn't deny it, he nodded, "Your Aunt Feng wrote in a letter to your mother that there is a girl who has good conditions in all aspects, and she is still your brother Minghai's colleague." ”

Guan Tianyou raised his eyebrows, "Brother Ming Hai didn't mention it in the letter to me, is it the woman's intention, Brother Ming Hai hasn't expressed his position yet, or what's the situation?"

"You Brother Minghai think that the other party's conditions are too good. ”

Yes?

The brother and sister looked at each other.

"Strange?"

"Hmm. ”

"Nothing strange. You see that after he failed in the college entrance examination once, he will no longer participate this year, it is conceivable that he is a more stable person and does not like to be radical. ”

Of course, this is good to be obedient, and to say that it is difficult to say that it is easy to meet and be at peace, and there is no great ambition. But the boy was also a rare person who understood what he wanted.

"Your brother Minghai thinks long-term, he is the eldest son, if the two younger brothers are not unexpected, they will work in the provincial capital after graduation in the future. When the time comes, he will have to spend it with his parents.

He is worried that the woman's conditions are too good now, and it is said that he will not be able to do housework or anything, and he will not get along well with your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law with your Aunt Feng at that time. The more your Aunt Feng asked him not to think about her and your Uncle Ma, the more he couldn't let go. It's been more than half a year, and if it happens, it's time to settle it. ”

Guan Ping'an touched his head, "Brother Ming Hai doesn't like it very much?"

"It should be for this reason. Guan Tianyou remembered that Qi Jingnian was eager to snatch his sister away, and felt more and more that what his sister said was reasonable, "Yes, I definitely don't like it very much." ”

"Don't you like to watch a movie with other girls?"
