"This way. Zhao Shanhe nodded and didn't say anything more.

It's not that Zhao Shanhe has nothing to say, he really wants to talk, Zhao Shanhe has a topic to talk about for a day and a night.

It's just that many times, when you meet some former acquaintances again, you will find that there is really nothing to say except to say hello.

"What about you? I heard that you were admitted to Fudan, where are you doing now?" Xiao Xiao kept talking.

Zhao Shanhe smiled: "Zhonghai, just fool around." ”

Xiao Xiao showed an envious look when he heard this: "Zhonghai, that's a big city, it's not like our small place." ”

From Xiao Xiao's tone, Zhao Shanhe could hear Xiao Xiao's dissatisfaction with his current life.

"You should be mixing well now, right? This car costs hundreds of thousands, right?" As he spoke, Xiao Xiao's topic turned to the car behind Zhao Shanhe.

Zhao Shanhe waved his hand casually: "Just go to work, this car is borrowed from someone else, and it is more urgent to come back to do things, and it is convenient to have a car." ”

Zhao Shanhe didn't lie, no matter how big the boss was, he also went to work, besides, the car was indeed given to him by someone else, but that person was her nominal wife.

"Oh, you're done, come to my house for dinner at noon, we haven't seen each other in years. Xiao Xiao seemed a little disappointed when he heard this.

Zhao Shanhe refused: "It's done, forget about eating, wait for next time, eat next time." ”

"What's the matter, now that you're getting rich outside, you look down on your old classmates?" Xiao Xiao said a little unhappily.

It's not that Zhao Shanhe looks down on Xiao Xiao, firstly, Zhao Shanhe has promised Li Lanying to go back for dinner at noon, and secondly, he has just chatted with Xiao Xiao for a few words, Zhao Shanhe found that Xiao Xiao is very dissatisfied with his current life, and the whole person is full of negative energy.

This is not the person he wants to talk to, he has been chatting with people with negative energy, and he can't say that his mood will also be affected.

Zhao Shanhe saw that Xiao Xiao was a little unhappy, and hurriedly said, "It's really not, I have to rush back to Zhonghai in the afternoon." This time I came back in a hurry, and the time was in a hurry. Wait for next time, next time I'll treat you to dinner. ”

Xiao Xiao, whether in his previous life or now, is just a passerby in Zhao Shanhe's life.

Zhao Shanhe was naturally not willing to break his promise to his mother for the sake of a passerby.

It's just that Zhao Shanhe subconsciously forgets many times that from the moment he is reborn, the butterfly's wings have been instigated, and many things are not as unchanged as he imagined.

For example, in his previous life, he divorced Cao Yiqing without any twists and turns, and naturally there would be no scene in front of him.

Zhao Shanhe didn't know that because of this meeting, the trajectory that made him and Xiao Xiao originally had no intersection slowly deviated.

Hearing Zhao Shanhe say this, Xiao Xiao naturally wouldn't be stubborn.

"Okay, forget it this time. Give me your contact information, I have to go to Zhonghai in a few days, and I will look for you when I have time. Xiao Xiao didn't seem to feel that Zhao Shanhe was just being polite to him and asked Zhao Shanhe for his contact information.

Zhao Shanhe nodded and reported his mobile phone number to Xiao Xiao.

The meal has already been refused, and it would be too much if you refused to even give your contact information.

As for what Xiao Xiao said about going to Zhonghai to contact him, Zhao Shanhe didn't care. It's a big deal to invite Xiao Xiao to have a meal, what else can I do?

As long as Xiao Xiao understands a little bit of human sophistication, it is impossible to bother him all the time.

After saying a few more words, Zhao Shanhe got in the car and left.

Xiao Xiao stood there all the time, watching the Audi drive away before turning around.

Zhao Shanhe didn't take Xiao Xiao's meeting seriously, and quickly left it behind.

When Zhao Shanhe returned home, Li Lanying was drying corn on the stone slab in front of the house, and Zhao Yongfu was not at home.

"Mom, I'll help you. "Zhao Shanhe stepped forward to help.

Li Lanying wiped the sweat from her forehead and pushed him aside: "It'll be fine soon, you go and sit in the house, and I'll cook when it's done." ”

"My dad hasn't come back yet?" Zhao Shanhe asked.

When he got up in the morning, Zhao Shanhe didn't see Zhao Yongfu. It's not too early at this time, and Zhao Yongfu is not at home yet.

When chatting with Zhao Yongfu yesterday, Zhao Shanhe knew that Zhao Yongfu didn't have any work on his hands recently, and he didn't have anything to do in the fields recently, so it stands to reason that he shouldn't be at home.

Li Lanying also finished the corn on the slate floor at this time, and returned to the hall: "He went to ask for money, and in March, he helped a family in the town build two tables and ten chairs, and some of the money has not been obtained, so he should be back soon." ”

"Oh. Zhao Shanhe nodded.

This kind of thing is normal, now is not the future, every household buys furniture directly from the outside.

Basically, they are all looking for carpenters, and the money is also a little given, and few people can pay off the money at the time.

Zhao Shanhe, who knew where Zhao Yongfu went, sat under the electric fan in the hall and blew the wind, waiting for Zhao Yongfu to come back, while Li Lanying went to the kitchen to be busy.

Half an hour later, the smell of rice wafted from the kitchen.

Zhao Shanhe took out his mobile phone and looked at the time, it was already eleven o'clock.

It stands to reason that Zhao Yongfu should also come back at this time.

However, thinking of the difficulty of collecting debts, Zhao Shanhe didn't care too much.

Generally speaking, this kind of money basically has to be asked at the end of the year to get a little.

If you ask for it at this time, people will basically not give it.

This is also the reason why many craftsmen are reluctant to work in their hometowns to help private families and go outside to work on construction sites.

Not for anything else, just because the money is too hard to get.

Maybe it's going to take a job, and it will take years to get all the money back.

In recent years, there have been arrears of workers' wages on the construction site, but after the introduction of relevant policies, few bosses dared to default.

"Shanhe, what time is it?" After a while, Li Lanying's voice of inquiry came from the kitchen.

Zhao Shanhe looked at his phone, it was almost twelve o'clock.

"Where is Dad going to ask for money? I'll go and see. Zhao Shanhe was a little uneasy, and asked Li Lanying.

"Forget it, don't wait for him, he estimates that he will eat at someone's house, you sit down for a while, and I'll fry another dish." Li Lanying said.

When Li Lanying was cooking, she had already cooked the meat.

Now all they need to do is stir-fry a vegetarian dish, and the two of them can't eat much.

Zhao Shanhe thought about it, it was not night at this time, and there would be nothing to do in the daytime, so he lay on the rattan chair and waited for Li Lanying to finish the meal.

Summer is the time when there is no shortage of vegetarian dishes in the countryside, and it didn't take long for Li Lanying to fry the vegetables.

After Zhao Shanhe finished eating, the mother and son sat in the hall and ate.

It's just that before he could eat two bites, a middle-aged man on a motorcycle outside came to the door of Zhao's house: "Is Lan Ying's sister-in-law at home? Brother Yongfu was beaten and sent to the hospital." ”
