Chapter 270: The Life of an Ordinary Man
It's another sunny Saturday.
Lin Zhiming's family got up early in the morning.
Because I was going out camping with Xu Chenxin and several other families today, the family got up a little earlier than usual.
After practicing exercises and eating, the family went downstairs with large bags and small bags.
As soon as they arrived downstairs, Xu Chenxin's family's RV drove over.
"What about the other families?" Lin Zhiming walked into the car and asked curiously.
"They came from somewhere else and made an appointment to meet on the mountain. Xu Chenxin said.
"I didn't expect you to be able to drive this car. Lin Zhiming smiled.
"That's not it, when I got married to my daughter-in-law, I drove this car out of the country for a lap, and my driving skills were no worse than the average old driver, so you can sit down. Xu Chenxin reminded.
Lin Zhiming nodded, hugged Lin Wan'er to Xu Chenxin's son and sat down, and after fastening the seat belt, Lin Zhiming and Yao Jing sat opposite Lin Wan'er.
The group set off in this way and headed for Qingyuan Mountain, which is more than ten kilometers away from the city center.
In order not to affect the camping, Lin Zhiming specially let Li Sina stay at home.
More than half an hour later, the car drove into Qingyuan Mountain.
After going around the mountain for more than ten minutes, I finally stopped in an open field.
This is the highest position of Qingyuan Mountain, and many people come here every weekend, some come to camp, and some people come to go out.
After Xu Chenxin parked the car, Lin Zhiming got out of the car with Lin Wan'er in his arms.
There were at least dozens of people on the open grass, some sitting on the ground playing cards and chatting, some barbecuing, and some children running around and playing.
"Lao Lin!" Someone said hello to Lin Zhiming, it was the father of Lin Wan'er's kindergarten classmate.
Several families camping this time are from Lin Wan'er's class, and everyone knows each other well.
"Lao Wang, Lao Zhou, Lao Li!" Lin Zhiming greeted these people one by one with a smile, and after that, Lin Zhiming put Lin Wan'er on the ground and said, "Go play with the children!"
"Can I get my clothes dirty?" asked Lin Wan'er.
"Of course you can, you can play as much as you want!" Lin Zhiming smiled.
"Okay!" Lin Wan'er cheered happily, and then ran out with a few children.
The children played around, and the adults divided the work among themselves, setting up tents, barbecue grills, blankets, and so on.
This is the first time Lin Zhiming has gone out to camp with someone.
In the past, when he was in the extraterritorial battlefield, he didn't camp, but that kind of camping is different from this kind of camping, that kind of camping you always have to watch out for someone rushing out from the dark to attack you, basically you can't sleep at ease all night, which is like now, a few people drinking beer and roasting meat, the feeling is completely different.
The sun dispelled the slightest chill on their bodies, and by the afternoon almost everyone had taken off their coats and were wearing only a thin single coat.
Lin Zhiming and Xu Chenxin and Lao Wai sat on the carpet to fight the landlord, Lao Wang and Lao Li were smoking cigarettes next to them to make suggestions, Yao Jing and these people's wives got together to deal with the ingredients to be eaten tonight, Lin Wan'er and a group of children were playing games in the distance, and the picture was so happy that Lin Zhiming had the illusion that he had retired.
"Lao Lin, I haven't asked you either, what do you do?" asked Lao Zhou as he played his cards.
"Just do a little business, don't worry about eating and drinking, but don't get rich and expensive, so be it. Lin Zhiming smiled.
"Being rich and rich is not as good as living a well-off life like ours, and if you have much money, you have to be busy with a lot of business. Xu Chenxin said.
"You have the right words. Lin Zhiming nodded in agreement, then put down the Wang Bang in his hand and said, "Bomb, double, twenty yuan per person." ”
"Is there a mistake! You win again!" Xu Chen said angrily, "How many times have you won this afternoon! I only have 200 pocket money to buy cigarettes a week, you are good, you have won all my 200 yuan, I will not bring cigarettes next week, and wait for you at the school gate every day to give me cigarettes." ”
"This can't be done, I'm used to smoking your cigarettes, I can't buy them myself!" Lin Zhiming said with a hippie smile.
"Then why don't you count me less!" Xu Chenxin said.
"You can't lose any gambling debts, otherwise you will lose money!" Lin Zhiming said seriously.
"You... Then come again, I must take revenge!" Xu Chen's heart was itching with hatred, and while shuffling the cards, he said that he must blow up Lin Zhiming's underwear.
"Your husband lost again. Yao Jing said with a smile while cleaning the chicken wings.
"He can't play cards, his skills stink too much, even I can't play them. Xu Chenxin's wife said with disdain.
"You give him two hundred pocket money a week?" asked Yao Jing curiously.
"Yes, this man can't be rich, as soon as he gets rich, he will become bad, how much pocket money do you give your husband a month?" asked Xu Chenxin's wife.
"The two of us are financially independent of each other, he spends his and I spend mine!" Yao Jing smiled.
"This can't be done, Yao Jing, this man can't have more than two hundred yuan in cash in his pocket, you don't know how powerful the little goblin outside is now, although you are beautiful, but you can't be defenseless!" Xu Chenxin's wife respectfully taught.
"Then I'll talk to him about it. Yao Jing said, looked at Lin Zhiming, and found that Lin Zhiming was playing cards with someone with a hippie smile.
This feeling has never been better, as if she has really become an ordinary wife in an ordinary family.
However, it is estimated that it is impossible for Lin Zhiming to hand over the financial power to her, after all, Lin Zhiming has too much money in his hands.
"By the way, everyone, I'll invite you to a Banyan Tree spa when you go back tomorrow!" said a housewife next to her.
"Banyan Tree, that's precious, don't go, there's no need!" Xu Chenxin's wife shook her head.
"I just have their coupons, a coupon can be used once, it's very cost-effective, Yao Jing, you have to go together then, you don't play much with us, we often send the baby to and from school together on weekdays, go shopping together, you have a rare opportunity this time, you can't be absent!"
Yao Jing nodded, she felt that this was normal life, where could she casually go to a place and encounter any trouble? Life is the most insignificant little things, there will not be so many bad people in life, will not be looked down upon casually, will not be hostile casually, everyone comes out to play together, just like ordinary friends, there are no ups and downs, but it makes people's hearts warm.
In the blink of an eye, the sun is setting, there are a lot of people in the clearing, most of them leave after the sun goes down, and the rest except for camping, which is the couple who are ready to watch the stars and the moon and watch the meteor shower here.
In the evening, everyone set up a big iron pot next to the car and cooked a large pot of noodles, with barbecue and beer, and life couldn't be better.
Lin Zhiming ordered a few men to drink, and Yao Jing and a few women sat in the open space and chatted, chatting about the shortcomings of the parents and some gossip in Strait City.
"Have you heard, Lu Ming's world tour will be in our Strait City next week, right at the Strait Gymnasium!" said a woman.
Lu Ming?
Yao Jing suddenly remembered this idol artist who had met several times, and she hadn't heard this name for a long time after the last time she was separated in Rongjin City.
"Lu Ming is still good-looking, our company has tickets for his concert, there are a lot, if you want, let's go see it together next Saturday!" Xu Chenxin's wife said.
"Is there really one?" said a woman next to her in surprise, "If there is, then you must go and see it! ”
"There are a lot of tickets for this kind, so I'll let people keep five, but the location shouldn't be too good!" Xu Chenxin's wife said.
"I don't necessarily have time," Yao Jing said.
In fact, it's not that she doesn't have time, but she doesn't have a good impression of Lu Ming, so she doesn't want to go, otherwise, if she wants to watch Lu Ming's concert, she just asks her mother to ask Lu Ming's agent for tickets, and it's definitely the first few rows.
"Lu Ming's concert is rare to be held once, let's go together, we women should take a look at these little fresh meat to cultivate sentiment!"
"Yao Jing's husband is no worse than Xiao Xianrou! Yao Jing, seriously, your husband is really handsome, if he wants to be an actor, he will definitely be better than Lu Ming!" Xu Chenxin's wife said seriously.
Yao Jing smiled, in her eyes, Lin Zhiming was indeed much more handsome than Lu Ming.
The night was deep, and it was more than nine o'clock in the blink of an eye.
After an afternoon of play, most of the children were already asleep.
Lin Zhiming sent the sleeping Lin Wan'er into the tent, and after covering the quilt, Lin Zhiming secretly kissed Lin Wan'er's crystal clear face, and after that, Lin Zhiming left the tent like a thief.
As soon as he got out of the tent, Lin Zhiming saw Xu Chenxin's son.
Xu Chenxin's son was holding a doll about his height and wearing pajamas.
"Why don't you go to sleep?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Uncle, this is my favorite doll, every time I sleep and hold them, I can sleep soundly, I want to give it to Wan'er. Xu Chenxin's son said.
"You kid, you know how to pick up girls at a young age? Okay, give it to me. Lin Zhiming smiled.
Xu Chenxin's son smiled shyly, handed the panda doll in his hand to Lin Zhiming, and then turned around and ran away.
Looking at the doll in his hand, Lin Zhiming shook his head with a smile, then returned to the tent again and placed the doll beside Lin Wan'er, and then Lin Zhiming walked out of the tent.
Outside the tent, everyone sat around a campfire and chatted and drank.
"Your son gave my daughter a doll! Lin Zhiming sat down next to Xu Chenxin and said.
"Yes, this kid has a really good eye, and knows that Wan'er is definitely a super beauty when she grows up, and now she knows how to strike first. Lao Lin, how about we order a doll?" Xu Chen asked with a smile.
Because he drank a lot of wine, Xu Chenxin's face was a little drunk.
"What do you think? My daughter doesn't marry. Lin Zhiming rolled his eyes and said.
Although Lin Wan'er is not his biological father, he has already regarded himself as Lin Wan'er's biological father now.
"I can't help you! That kid in my family can hurt girls, don't you see how well Wan'er plays with him, when Wan'er is willing, you can't stop it?" Xu Chen said proudly.
"Drinking and drinking, talking so much, haven't you ever vomited?" Lin Zhiming picked up the wine bottle and touched Xu Chenxin.
There was a burst of laughter all around.
In the night, the laughter dances with the flames, which is particularly enthusiastic.
At the same time, under the cover of this night, all over the entire Strait City, people in black robes walked out of the darkness and walked towards a crowded place...
(There's a plot point stuck here, so there's another chapter to make it a little more comfortable for everyone to watch.) )
