Chapter 114: Housework
The autumn is high and cool, and it is the National Day of another year, and the Jingzhou Petrochemical project team has also had a holiday for the first time. On the afternoon of the 30th, Geng Zhiyuan got on the train and rushed back to Liangcheng, and just after leaving the train station, Su Qing greeted him with a smile.
"How long have you waited?" Geng Zhiyuan asked distressedly.
Su Qing's train arrived in Liangcheng a little earlier, and the two of them made an appointment to meet at the station. I haven't seen each other for more than half a month, Su Qing's smart eyes looked up and down at her tall and handsome boyfriend, and she couldn't get enough of it: "It didn't take long for you to be dark." ”
"Running around the scene all day long, the sun on the beach is poisonous, can it not be dark?" Geng Zhiyuan held his girlfriend's delicate and soft little hand, and his heart suddenly became restless.
"Is your brother coming back this time?" Su Qing snuggled up to her boyfriend and asked as she walked.
Geng Zhiyuan sighed and said, "When I came back, I said I wanted to borrow money." ”
"Borrow money?" Su Qing frowned slightly, "Whom did you borrow?"
Geng Zhiyuan turned his head and grinned at her, "Who else can I borrow? ”
"You agreed?" asked Su Qing bravely in the face of her boyfriend's fiery gaze.
Geng Zhiyuan said helplessly: "Let's look at the situation, my brother has to borrow something." ”
"If he is used on the right path, we can borrow it, but we can't spend it indiscriminately. Su Qing has imperceptibly regarded herself as Geng Zhiyuan's wife, and instinctively exercised the necessary rights of the hostess.
Geng Zhiyuan saw her enter the role of his wife and took care of himself, smiled and put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Okay, wife." ”
When Geng Zhiyuan and Su Qing arrived home, Geng Zhiwei had been waiting with his parents for a long time, and he saw that Su Qing's appearance and temperament were really much stronger than Wei Xiao's, so he secretly said to Geng Zhiyuan enviously: "Brother, the girlfriends you are looking for are more beautiful than the other." ”
Geng Zhiyuan is no longer the ignorant young man who was immersed in Wei Xiao's beauty two years ago, and said with a faint smile: "Appearance is just appearance, looking for a wife still depends on temper and connotation." ”
Geng Zhiwei's expression was stunned when he heard this, his online girlfriend Wang Xiaoling was not only far inferior to Su Qing in appearance and temperament, but also had a huge difference in temperament and personality. Wang Xiaoling is a pungent Hunan girl with an extremely strong personality, once she quarrels with him, she will never repeat it when she scolds people. Geng Zhiwei had already been cleaned up by her, and almost all the money he earned from working in Shanghai was sent to her to supplement her family.
"Brother, what I told you about borrowing money...... Geng Zhiwei didn't realize the difficulty of being shy in his pocket for a long time, and said with a shy face: "Can you lend me 100,000 yuan?"
Geng Zhiyuan was taken aback: "100,000 yuan!? What are you borrowing so much money for?"
"Xiaoling......" Geng Zhiyuan snorted: "Xiaoling's family builds a house, you also know that they have many mountains and little land, and it is difficult to build a house in the countryside." ”
Before the eight characters were skimmed, Geng Zhiwei had to make up for his future parents-in-law's house. Geng Zhiyuan smiled: "If you want to say so, I can't borrow this money." ”
"Why?" Geng Zhiwei said anxiously: "I'm your younger brother." ”
Geng Zhiyuan sneered: "It's true that you are my brother, Wang Xiaoling has nothing to do with me, it doesn't matter to me whether she builds a house or not." ”
"But she's your brother and sister!" Geng Zhiwei said stiffly: "You don't look at her face, you have to look at my face, right?"
"The two of you are not married, and your relationship has not been settled, so I can't borrow this money. Geng Zhiyuan said resolutely.
Geng Zhiwei was a little angry, shook his face and said, "If you don't borrow it, forget it, I'll ask my parents to go." ”
"Mom and Dad won't give it to you, I don't believe you to ask. Geng Zhiyuan, as his biological son, opened his mouth to borrow money and gave 20,000 yuan, how could Geng Huaiguo and his wife be willing to pay 100,000 yuan to help their in-laws build a house without a shadow?
"Hmph, my parents love me the most. Geng Zhiwei was not convinced.
At dinner, Geng Zhiwei was worried about borrowing money, and when he ate this meal, he couldn't feel the sweetness of the past. Gao Shuying saw that her youngest son was eating less, and persuaded her distressedly: "Zhiwei, eat more of your favorite braised mackerel." ”
"Got it, Mom!" Geng Zhiwei said impatiently.
Seeing his attitude towards his mother, Su Qing glanced at her boyfriend in surprise, Geng Zhiyuan shook her head slightly, and she lowered her head knowingly to deal with the rice in her bowl attentively.
After dinner, Su Qing helped Gao Shuying clean up the tables, chairs, dishes and chopsticks, and Geng Zhiwei couldn't wait to pull his father to sit on the sofa.
Geng Zhiyuan didn't want to wade into his brother's troubled waters, turned around and went into his room, sat down in front of the desk and found a copy of "Manstein". As soon as he turned a few pages, he heard Geng Huaiguo shouting outside: "No! How can this work? I and your mother can't borrow this money!"
As expected, Geng Zhiyuan smiled slightly, picked up the book and continued to read. In the living room, Geng Zhiwei tried his best to persuade his father: "Xiaoling and I will definitely get married in the future, didn't you promise me to give 100,000 yuan when I got married......?
When Geng Huaiguo heard his youngest son say this, he immediately panicked in surprise. He did prepare 100,000 yuan for Geng Zhiwei to get married and buy a house, but this matter must be hidden from his eldest son, and he must not be allowed to know. Otherwise, the two sons, one for 20,000 and the other for 100,000, are very different in terms of treatment, and Geng Zhiyuan would be strange if he had no opinion.
"What are you yelling about!?" Geng Huaiguo scolded in a low voice, "Do you want your brother to hear it?"
Geng Zhiwei realized that he was speechless, and hurriedly covered his mouth and said, "Then do you borrow it or not?" If you don't borrow it, I'll shout and let my brother know what the two of you treat him." ”
"You ......" Geng Huaiguo was so angry that he almost didn't take his back on it, pointing at his youngest son, trembling and almost speechless.
Gao Shuying heard the two arguing in the living room, hurriedly walked out of the kitchen, pointed to Geng Zhiyuan's room and said, "You two be quiet, don't let the boss hear!"
"Come here...... Geng Huaiguo took his wife's hand and trembled and said, "Your baby little son, you want us to pay 100,000 yuan to help the daughter's family in Hunan build a house." ”
"What!?" Gao Shuying raised her eyebrows and said coldly: "How can that work?"
Geng Zhiwei repeated his old tricks: "If you don't agree, I will let my brother know about the 100,000 yuan." ”
"If you know, you know!" Gao Shuying has always been a strong woman, and said without fear: "We want money before we have seen anyone, no way!"
Taking advantage of the quarrel in the living room, Su Qing quietly went into her boyfriend's room and whispered, "They quarreled." ”
Geng Zhiyuan snorted and said, "Let's quarrel, I'm a son, where can I care?"
"How can I listen to ......" Su Qing hesitated slightly, but still said: "Your brother said that your parents prepared 100,000 yuan for him." ”
"Really?" In fact, Geng Zhiyuan also heard the conversation between his father and younger brother just now, fortunately, since he was a child, his parents have favored his younger brother in everything, and he didn't feel strange when he was used to it: "Give it, and the two of them can give their own money to whomever they want." ”
Su Qing saw her boyfriend's expression low when he spoke, and knew that he was a little sad, so she hugged him sympathetically and said, "Don't be sad, there is me! I only hurt you alone." ”
Geng Zhiyuan smiled knowingly, reached out and patted her arm: "You sleep in my bed at night, and I will sleep on the sofa in the living room." ”
"Let's be together, how uncomfortable it is to lie on the sofa. Su Qing was puzzled.
Geng Zhiyuan stared at her again and again, and sneered: "Qingqing, we are not married yet, you are a big girl." ”
Su Qingwan smiled and said, "I don't care, as long as I can be with you, I'm not afraid of anything." ”
Geng Zhiyuan was so moved that he clenched her little hand and said affectionately: "Thank you, Qingqing!"
Her boyfriend was so discriminated against at home, Su Qing was dissatisfied: "Why are your parents so partial?
Geng Zhiyuan said indifferently: "Isn't it normal for parents to love the old and the young? Besides, since I was a child, my younger brother has been more observant than me and coaxed my parents to be happy." Who would you like if you were to change it?"
"Your brother, of course. Su Qing remembered her boyfriend's stubborn temper and sighed: "I now understand why you are so stubborn, the environment dictates it." ”
Geng Zhiyuan smiled faintly: "Where there is oppression, there is resistance, even if it is my parents." After all, they gave birth to me, and I won't bother with them. ”
Su Qing is an only daughter at home and has been loved by her parents. Compared with the two, she couldn't help but pity her boyfriend who was loved by few people from the bottom of her heart.
The war in the living room came to an end, and Geng Zhiwei finally didn't get a penny from his parents, and he secretly resented: "If you don't give me money, I'll borrow it!" ”
Early the next morning, Geng Zhiyuan led Su Qing out of the door, ready to go to the riverside square for a walk. As soon as he went out, he received a call from his sister Geng Yan, saying that he had something important to discuss.
What will my sister do when she looks for him? Geng Zhiyuan was full of questions, and took Su Qing to the women's clothing area on the second floor of Zhongbai Commercial Building to find Geng Yan.
"This is my sister. Geng Zhiyuan pointed at Geng Yan and introduced. Su Qing called out sweetly: "Sister!"
Geng Yan never expected that his younger brother's new girlfriend was much more beautiful than Wei Xiao, so he hurriedly said politely: "Oh, this little sister is really good-looking." ”
"Sister, this is my girlfriend Su Qing. ”
"Oh, Su Qing!? That's a good name. Geng Yan's incessant praise made Su Qing's cheeks redden.
"Sister, what are you looking for me?" After a few words of greeting, Geng Zhiyuan asked directly.
"yes, I almost forgot about it. Geng Yan patted his head and said, "Let's go, go to my office to talk." ”
Geng Yan took the two of them around a few times and turned into the office building behind the Zhongbai Commercial Building. Coming to an office room with the sign of Geng's Trading Co., Ltd., Geng Yan pointed to the glass door and said, "Here, this is my company." ”
Geng Zhiyuan looked at the surrounding environment and said, "Sister, did you rent or buy this place?"
"Rented, how can I afford to buy it?" As he was talking, the front desk lady inside saw the boss coming to the company with people, and hurriedly ran over to open the door and welcomed them in.
Geng Yan's office is small and very simplely decorated, with a three-seater sofa opposite the boss's desk. The three of them sat on the sofa, and the front desk lady brought three cups of hot tea and put them in front of them one by one.
"Sister, what do you say?" Geng Zhiyuan asked after taking a sip of tea.
Geng Yan asked tentatively, "I heard that you made a lot of money by opening a hot pot restaurant?"
Geng Zhiyuan smiled slightly, put down the teacup and said, "Who did you listen to?"
"Your mother!" Geng Yan smiled and said, "Zhiyuan, are you really making a lot of money?"
There is no need to tell lies with my sister, who grew up with me, Geng Zhiyuan nodded and said, "Well, I made some money." Sister, do you have an idea?"
"It's still my brother's pleasure!" Geng Yan clapped her hands and said: "Your sister is busy looking for a way to make money now, if you really make money by opening a restaurant, how about we cooperate once?"
