189, back
Li Lan said, "Am I so naΓ―ve?"
The worst temper in their family should be his wife, when encountering injustices outside, he always has to roar twice, and he is easily unwilling to compromise, no matter how big or small, he has to argue a reason, and it is the same at home, no matter what mistakes he and his sister make, the old lady will not let go easily, there must be a one, two, three, four out.
However, one good thing is that there is never a lack of respect for them because of their young age, so the mother-child relationship is equal.
As for his Lao Tzu, he has the best temper in their family, and as long as it is not a mistake of principle, he has always been indifferent, just because of his character, he is lazy and lazy.
Really disciplined, he was afraid that his Lao Tzu's mouth would hurt people, and he would never be respectful, he was completely in a state of self, what he said was right, and everything he said was for your good.
Even so, he was not rebellious, he had long passed the age of rebellion, and besides, he had never rebelled, according to his grandmother, he was precocious.
"Then you're not that character. β
Pan Shaojun understands the general momentum of the Li family, but he doesn't know much about Li Lan's character, their relationship is the relationship between the landlord and the long-term worker in the past, even if there are no rules and regulations of the old era, but the dependence between their Pan family and the Li family cannot be changed.
Therefore, he is very sober, and he and Li Lan are qualified to sit down and chat, and they can only echo more and inquire less.
Li Lan said, "I won't tell you more about some things, anyway, I'm like this now, chic and happy, it's just a fairy day, there's nothing to be dissatisfied." β
At least in the eyes of outsiders, he lived a fairy life and deserved to live this kind of life.
He can now finally be sure that no matter what he does, he can't escape his Lao Tzu's eyes, and everything about him has no personal privacy and space to speak of.
He could even imagine that he must be sitting on the red sandalwood chair at home at this moment, with his thighs crossed, holding the teapot, listening to the reports made by others, and laughing at what he did.
Pan Shaojun carefully read what he said before and after entering the door, and couldn't think of any of his words that made Li Lan's mind suddenly change drastically, and he drank sullen wine.
I hate it in my heart, I'm so brainless!
Why so many words!
said apologetically, "I'm sorry, it may be that I'm too talkative, if something is wrong, you just say that we are not outsiders." β
I was a little panicked in my heart, but don't annoy Li Lan.
Li Lan understood that Pan Shaojun had misunderstood, and said with a smile, "You think too much, it has nothing to do with you, just sigh blindly, we all know that it is not easy to be a son, and who can know that it is not easy to be a son." β
When Pan Shaojun heard the last sentence, he finally put his mind at ease, it turned out that the crux of Li Lan's crux was still in the relationship between father and son, and said, "Uncle Li and Aunt He are both scholars, highly educated, sensible and reasonable, much better than my Lao Tzu, like my Lao Tzu graduated from junior high school, a big old man, and a filial son under the stick, and never took into account people's feelings." β
Li Lan said, "If you have read a book, you must be reasonable? In Chinese history, the things that have been separated for a long time must be united, and the things that have been bent and shot at the eagle eagle are basically done by people who have read poetry and books a lot, and if you look at the Western countries, from the president to the secretary of state, none of them came from Cambridge, Harvard, or Massachusetts, and when they launched aggression, they were never unreasonable. β
Is this to criticize Li Lao Er?
Pan Shaojun resolutely does not participate!
So I wanted to divert the topic, and I had an idea, pointing to the pickup truck at the door, "Look at my brain, I forgot to ask last time, it turned out that you bought it, and I was still confused." β
Li Lan said, "What? It can't be your order, right?"
Pan Shaojun said, "It's not me, it's a friend of mine, Xu Guohua, do you know him?" It's his son, Xu Jin, who is also in Pujiang now. β
Li Lan said, "I know Xu Guohua, but I don't know about his son." β
A few days after the graduation ceremony, he took him around for some days and met many people, one of whom was Xu Guohua.
Pan Shaojun said, "Xu Jin customized it himself, he and Zhu Dachang's son Zhu Jingliang had a good time, he didn't expect that as soon as the car entered Waigaoqiao, Zhu Jingliang made the decision to transfer it to others without authorization, and lost face.
asked Zhu Jingliang who he transferred it to, and Zhu Jingliang didn't say anything, anyway, the two of them pinched it hard. β
Li Ran asked, "You haven't been in contact with Qi Yue?"
Pan Shaojun said, "I'm not a person with her girl, and I can't play together, what's the matter, you have a connection?"
Li Lan said, "The car was sent by her, the day after I came, I just wanted an ordinary pickup truck, who knew that she sent me such a big thing, the car is bulky, and parking is troublesome." β
Pan Shaojun said, "It turned out to be her, no wonder I said that Zhu Jingliang would rather offend Xu Jin than transfer the car to others." β
In the early years, the Zhu family was engaged in automobile dealership business, and later the main business slowly changed, with auto parts wholesale markets and automobile trading markets all over the country and at home and abroad, and the world's largest automobile trading platform.
Li Lan said, "There's nothing to hide about this, he directly said that if you transfer it to Qi Yue, won't you get it?"
Pan Shaojun said, "It's okay not to say it, Xu Jin must be more annoyed, obviously favoring one over the other, and he is no worse than Qi Yue." The key is that I guess Zhu Jingliang didn't know that the car was for you, otherwise he would have said it. β
Xu Guohua and Pingsong were engaged in the real estate business in the early years, and later slowly turned to mining and hydropower development, and in 2011, he ranked ninth on the China Wealth List.
On the other hand, what does the Qi family have?
No matter how capable Qi Hua is, he is just a working emperor.
Therefore, Zhu Jingliang is biased towards Qi Yue, and he must not be able to convince Xu Jin, in his opinion, he is one level higher than Qi Yue.
Li Lan said, "Then let them be, I don't care about this kind of." However, since he is your friend, you can ask him, if he still wants this car, you can let him drive it, it doesn't matter if I drive it or not, it's a big deal to change it. β
Pan Shaojun said, "He's just angry, it's okay, you don't have to worry about it." β
thought to himself, "With Xu Jin's little guts, if he knew that this car was here in Li Lan and gave it to him for nothing, he wouldn't dare to ask for it." β
I can't help but laugh when I think about it.
Li Ran saw that he was laughing inexplicably, and he didn't ask much, after drinking a bottle of beer, he picked up the rice bowl again, the ribs were inedible, but there was still a plate of green vegetables and a plate of peanuts on the table.
After eating indiscriminately, he pushed away Pan Shaojun, who was going to help him clean up, and said, "You don't need to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, just help me mop the floor." β
Pan Shaojun has never done such a thing at home, but he is very enthusiastic here, and every few steps he drags to the mop pool to clean the mop, and asks while dragging, "Didn't you look for the cleaning aunt?" I see that many places are still full of ash, and they haven't been cleaned carefully. β
Li Lan said, "No, I have asked a little girl in the sales department to contact me, I said yesterday, I haven't come yet, see when I come." β
Pan Shaojun put away the mop, put it on the steps at the door, and continued, "Seeing that it is so difficult for you to eat, why don't you invite another aunt to cook rice?" β
Li Lan waved his hand and said, "If I want to be relaxed and nest directly at home, why bother to come all the way here and find myself unhappy." β
Pan Shaojun said, "I don't understand you, I'm here with a mission, I'll invite you to dinner in the evening, you have to reply to me, how about it, go for a trip?"
Li Lan said, "I won't go to dinner, I'm not a fool, hey, I guess I won't be able to stop this week, I must eat every day." β
He doesn't have to calculate to know that Chen Dadi, Wu Shuping, and Sang Yongbo will definitely invite him one after another.
Sure enough, after going to Pan's house that night, he never stopped the dinner, and there were many more people who invited him to eat than he imagined, and even Xu Jin, Zhu Jingliang and others, who had never dealt with him, also invited him to the dinner through Pan Shaojun.
Jiang Xingyuan took the improved chewing gum, passed Sang Chunling's acceptance, and finally entered the Sang family's supermarket as he wished.
Jiang Xingyuan said, "I don't even know how to thank you for your hello, really, thank you very much." β
From the moment he entered the door, Li Lan had heard this no less than ten times, and said helplessly, "Take me as a brother, don't say these useless polite words, you are not afraid of being tired, I am annoyed to listen, okay?"
Hey, why are you looking at me like that? Don't worship my brother too much. β
Jiang Xingyuan said, "Really, I really didn't know much about you before, really, I don't ask much, you can say it if you want to, and if you don't want to say it, I don't force it." β
Li Lan said, "There is nothing that can't be said, some classmates used to say that my parents were officials, so I can tell you seriously now, in fact, no, my ancestors have been poor and middle peasants for eight generations, and they are all proletariats with good roots, and they don't have the genes of being officials at all."
It was also to my generation, in his words, that knowledge changed destiny, and university teachers went to sea and started business. As for the business, the journey has been smooth sailing, and it is not small, so don't look down on your brother, my brother is just like you, and he is also the second generation of the rich people. β
I drank a lot of wine, and I was very talkative at the moment.
Jiang Xingyuan smiled bitterly, "Where do I dare to underestimate you, I'm not a fool, just look at Sang Chunling's attitude towards you, her family's business is so big, and she is polite to you, it's completely abnormal, if you want to say that it's because of my fellow countrymen, I don't believe it, there is nothing in Pujiang, that is, there are many people in northern Anhui, who collect rags, move, engage in earthwork, sell vegetables, and suppress everything, why doesn't she do this to others?"
Li Lan said with a smile, "His Lao Tzu was brought up by my Lao Tzu, so it can be regarded as a reward for his acquaintance." β
Jiang Xingyuan said, "He's not the only one, right? Tell you something, after Wang Kun went back, he was picked up with a belt by his Lao Tzu, and it was miserable." β
Li Lan asked curiously, "Why were you beaten?"
"I also said it by Wang Kun, it seems that Pan Shaojun knows his Lao Tzu and has a high relationship with his Lao Tzu, I heard that Pan Shaojun Lao Tzu mixed with him before? Then Pan Shaojun Lao Tzu mixed with you Lao Tzu again?" When he heard Wang Kun tell this, Jiang Xingyuan couldn't describe the shock in his heart.
Li Lan said, "It seems that it is, I have also seen his Laozi Wang Yuan, I remember that their family used to live in the Northeast, and every year they went to Heihe, they were received by his Laozi, but I didn't expect to move to Ludong later."
Oh, by the way, their business is actually very big, but he is relatively low-key. β
Jiang Xingyuan said, "I really don't know this, anyway, the old lady of Liulinpo is very big, his wife's name is Jin Lin, she started by making grinding wheels, the richest man in Zichuan, and the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce in Ludong, anyway, my Lao Tzu, and Wang Kun's Lao Tzu are quite convinced of her."
Therefore, our circle has always been regarded as the boss of Liu Linpo. β
"Jin Lin?" Li Lan smiled, "I seem to have heard this name." β
Jiang Xingyuan opened his mobile phone, searched for a picture in the browser, and handed it to Li Landao, "Na, you can see if you know if you know it." β
Li Lan looked at the screen and couldn't help laughing, he really knew it, Jin Lin also managed his Lao Tzu's industry.
"I know what Lao Tzu knows, and I have seen it. β
He suddenly felt that the world was very strange, and the business circle was too small.
It's summer.
He either walks his dog every day, studies chess, and occasionally runs out to drink, and his life is not comfortable.
Living in the shadow of his Lao Tzu, he should not do anything to make him see jokes, as long as his father can accept his mediocrity, he is willing to live this ordinary life of drinking tea and walking the dog.
It's just that he didn't expect to suddenly usher in an uninvited guest, his uncle Li Long.
For his uncle, what he is most afraid of is that his uncle is more verbose.
Li Long didn't come alone, he was followed by Pan Guangcai, Liu Dazhuang, and Sang Yongbo.
Pan Shaojun looked at Li Lan apologetically, he was also coerced by Li Lan, otherwise it would be impossible for him to rashly bring Li Long to the door without Li Lan's consent.
"Uncle, when did you come. Li Lan made Li Long a cup of tea.
Li Long said, "You and Li Pei are really a couple, you don't have to worry about family affairs at all, and you run outside in style." When I was young, I thought about what I was thinking about every day. β
Li Lan said, "I'm not lazy, I just want to come out and see the world, I am bored at home every day, and I have no interest." β
Li Long walked around the house, walked around, and then asked, "How do you live in such a remote place, it's not convenient to get anything, there are many houses in the family, it's better to pick and choose at will, if not, just change it, I'll take you to see it in the afternoon, which one you like to live in." β
Li Lan said, "The house was newly bought, and it didn't take half a month, so I bought it because I liked it, not to mention the quiet, there was less dust, exhaust or anything, and it was very comfortable to live." β
"You have a lot of things to do every day, and you don't live," Pan Guangcai sat on the sofa and teased Li Longdao, "Now the child's thoughts are the same as ours before, always holding on to the old concepts, how to keep pace with the times." β
Sang Yongbo said, "No wonder Li Pei doesn't talk to you every day, just your idea, now the child doesn't just give something to eat, what kind of psychological needs do you have." β
Li Long said, "Before I could say anything, you started to criticize me, saying that everything was for the good of these children, not for harming them." It's really compared to us, how can they compare?
The production team has just been separated, and the contracted land at home is not owned by one person, and one shoulder picks up 200 catties, which child can do it now?
I think it's not light. β
Liu Dazhuang said, "Wu Huozi crossed the river carrying a basket alone in winter, how can you compare? β
"Uncle, you drink tea. Li Lan poured a cup of tea one by one, although he criticized him, he simply pretended not to hear.
Pan Guangcai said, "Don't listen to your uncle's nonsense, I look at this place, a good place, it's better than the poor country in our hometown." β
Li Lan said, "Are you from your hometown?"
Pan Guangcai said, "I came back from Guangzhou, your Uncle Yongbo has been in Pujiang, and your uncle and Uncle Zhuang are from here." It just so happened that an old friend's grandson got married, and we all came over to join in the fun. β
Li Lan shouted in his heart, although his uncle and they can't compare with his son, but their net worth is not low, and they are among the best in their respective industries, what should be the origin of the people who can let them attend the wedding together?
Li Long said, "I told you that you don't know each other, have you heard of it?" It turns out that the general manager of Pujiang Construction Group, in the past, we used to pour national bonds in Pujiang, engage in waste products, do demolition or something, and everyone helped less, and they were very affectionate. β
Li Lan said, "I haven't heard of it. It's eleven o'clock, so let's go out and find a place to eat. β
Pan Guangcai said, "You don't have to go out, I heard that you are here to bring the dishes over, and you can pull and pull them in the pot casually, as long as they can be cooked." β
Hearing this, Pan Shaojun went outside and retrieved large bags of things from the car outside, including vegetables and meat, as well as a box of liquor.
Liu Dazhuang said, "I see that everything in the kitchen is all in order, you guys are resting here, I'll do it today, it's very fast." β
Li Lan and Pan Shaojun followed him to the kitchen.
Li Lan first simmered the rice, and then helped pick and wash the vegetables, Pan Shaojun broke the fish next to him, holding the kitchen knife tightly, how could he not cut the belly of the fish straight, Liu Dazhuang snatched the word in his hand, "You go aside, it's in the way, you haven't done any work at a glance." β
Pan Shaojun sneered, "I don't do much." β
Liu Dazhuang cut the fish, washed the fish, in one go, and when the oil pot was hot, the starch-wrapped fish went straight to the pot, turned the pot with one hand, and picked up the cigarette with the other.
When it was about the same, he added water to the pot again, covered the pot and asked Li Lan, "Your father hasn't been to Pujiang this year, has he?"
Li Lan said, "I don't know, anyway, I haven't been here recently." β
Pan Shaojun said, "No." β
If Li Lao Er came to Pujiang, he would definitely receive him.
Liu Dazhuang smiled and said, "When to get married, remember the notice and come to drink your favorite wine." β
"Uncle, don't tease me, in my current situation, forget it. Pan Shaojun's first marriage became a joke at home and abroad, creating China's first sky-high divorce case, and for a while, he didn't even have the courage to go out.
Once he was bitten by a snake, he was afraid of the well rope for ten years, it was okay to fall in love, and when he talked about marriage, he was terrified.
Liu Dazhuang said, "You are only in your thirties, what will you do in the future, what's wrong with divorce? β
"Yes. Pan Shaojun said.
Liu Dazhuang continued, "I'll tell you Lao Tzu tomorrow, and I'll introduce you to one." β
"Ah..." Pan Shaojun didn't react for a while.
Liu Dazhuang said, "I will introduce you to someone who is similar to your family background, and I don't want you to make money." β
Pan Shaojun thought to himself, can someone with a similar family background marry him for a second time?
smiled, "Uncle, don't be joking. β
Liu Dazhuang said, "Whoever joked with you, I'll talk back to you." β
He was very quick in the kitchen, and it didn't take long for six dishes to come out, with fish and meat.
Everyone came to the table, and Liu Dazhuang whispered a few words to Pan Guangcai.
Pan Shaojun toasted one by one, and when it was Pan Guangcai's turn, Pan Guangcai touched him, then asked him to sit down and drink, and then said, "Your Uncle Zhuang just said that he would introduce you to someone, not a joke." β
Pan Shaojun drank the wine in the cup and asked with a smile, "Uncle, I said that it is not big, and it is not small, but in fact, I am not in a hurry." β
Pan Guangcai said, "I didn't force the fortress to you, I originally wanted to tell you directly, but I was afraid that he would be too careful, so I didn't tell him." As for me, I'll say hello to you first, you don't have psychological pressure, this girl is a good boy, you can get along with it, and pull it down if you can't, don't force anyone. β
After Pan Shaojun heard this, his mind was really much more relaxed, so he smiled and said, "Uncle, you can say it, it's best to get along." β
Pan Guangcai said, "Marriage matters, it's not your parents who have the final say, and others don't count, you have to rely on your own decision." The girl I'm talking about is someone you know, and everyone here knows her.
The girl is a good girl, but she is not ladylike, and there are a little twists and turns in the marriage, and the situation is similar to you. β
Li Lan couldn't hold back his curiosity, and speculated repeatedly in private, everyone knew each other, and it was similar to Pan Shaojun's situation, and after a while, the answer was about to come out, and said with a smile, "I know who it is." β
Pan Shaojun scratched his head, but he couldn't think of it for a while, so he had to say, "Uncle, you can say it." β
Liu Dazhuang said, "It's not someone else, it's Wu You." β
Pan Shaojun said in surprise, "She... She's divorced?"
Pan Guangcai nodded and said, "The child has no father or mother, he has to endure hardships and work hard, who knows that in the end he found a bad thing, he is not ladylike, we didn't do a good job, it is also our fault, I always feel sorry for this child." β
Pan Shaojun unconsciously clenched the cup in his hand, "After she got married, I didn't contact her, Guo Jinhao, this bastard, is actually sorry for her." β
Pan Guangcai said, "Don't be angry, the girl was grown up by us, and we brought it out, and we agreed to the marriage event, now that there is such a stubble, naturally we will stand out for him, and their family's building materials business will not be able to go on soon, you see, I can make them better, I don't have the ability." β
Wu You was picked up by Li He from the river, and Wu Huozi raised him, but he did eat hundreds of family meals, because these people were all regarded as their own and raised as their own daughters.
When she got married, all of them gave a rich dowry, and there were always hundreds of millions.
"I can't make him feel better. Li Lan couldn't help but clench his fists, since he was a child, he remembered that he asked him to call Sister Wu You, and Wu You did look like a sister, and always liked to play with him.
Later, when he got married, he not only gave her an inheritance, but also personally presided over her wedding.
Hearing that Wu You was divorced, he lost his temper and said that he was going to pinch someone to death. He rarely saw him lose his temper so much.
He expected it to be probably this Guo Jinhao.
Pan Shaojun said, "Is she still in eastern Guangdong?"
Pan Guangcai said, "Yes, anyway, I'll just say that, how to develop depends on yourself, you already know each other, and you can contact more when you have time." β
Pan Shaojun picked up the cup again, stood up and said, "Uncle Pan, I'll give you another drink." β
Liu Dazhuang pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "What do you mean, just respect your Uncle Pan alone, treat us as air, he alone can be a matchmaker?"
Pan Shaojun drank it in a panic, poured another glass, and hurriedly picked up the cup and said, "This cup is for you." β
Everyone couldn't help but laugh.
Li Long said, "The Guo family is ignorant, cheap, let's be kind and unassuming, so we think we are easy to bully." I'm fucking curious, where did I get the confidence and boss to shout, I want to laugh when I think about it now. β
Thinking of the way the Guo family danced their teeth and claws at Li Laoer, he was not angry, but laughed, and he didn't die like this, and he didn't know his family's boss temperament better than him.
Da Zhuang said with a smile, "Erhe is sometimes too good at talking, you say that those who have read books can be the same as those who have not read books, it doesn't look fierce, anyway, it is easy to make people have illusions."
In the past, in the commune, everyone thought they could bully him, but if they really wanted to fight, everyone was afraid of him. β
Sang Yongbo said, "Hey, mention it again, how domineering my brothers are, bigger than Erhe, look at him and he is not still obedient, some people are born to do big things, Erhe is this kind of person, if you don't like it, without him, people like me are not as good as bullshit." β
Pan Guangcai said, "It's still comfortable for you, you can retire in two years, I can't do it, the cub is not angry, it's useless." β
Liu Dazhuang shook his head, "I see, among so many children, only Li Pei, Li Lan, Yang Huai and Liu Yao of the fourth family can rest assured, the rest is enough, the cubs are not distressed when they sell their fields, how many can make them lose everything." Of course, your Pan Ying is okay, but it's a pity that it's a girl. β
Li Long said, "Whatever you do, you are all fools." β
Turning his head to Li Landao, "I have time to call your brother and see what he's doing." β
Li Lan is quite sympathetic to his uncle, Li Pei is different from himself, he can finally listen to Li Er's words, and Li Pei completely ignores his uncle, the relationship between father and son is particularly tense, so he almost fights.
The main reason is nothing more than one to manage, after all, I eat a lot of salt, and the other is not to care, after all, I read a lot of books.
said, "The day before yesterday by phone, he did quite well in Hong Kong. β
Li Long pouted and said, "I can't make a lot of money all year round, I can only toss around." β
Li Lan smiled, decided not to meddle in this matter, and toasted a glass of wine one by one.
After eating, he cleaned up casually and made a new cup of tea for everyone.
Pan Guangcai threw a cigarette to him, and he smiled, "Uncle, don't smoke." β
Pan Guangcai asked, "Quitting?"
Li Lan said, "I have been smoking for two months, and I don't feel interesting, and it's just like that if I don't smoke." β
Only occasionally when I am upset, will I take a cigarette.
Li Lan went out of the house and went to the river, Li Lan was afraid that he would get lost, so he simply followed.
Two uncles and nephews, one in front and one behind, and a dog in the back.
Li Long threw the cigarette butt into the river, rubbed his eyelids, and asked, "Come back to my hometown for a few days?"
Li Lan said, "Let's wait for a while, and I won't go back for the time being." β
Li Long said, "Your grandmother was still talking about you the day before yesterday, saying that I haven't seen you for a long time, so let's go back when you have time." Your father and I are not young anymore, and in the future, your brother and sister will support each other at home, and we have to help each other, do you know? Your brother is straight, he has no bad intentions, although he is a few years older than you, but he is not as good as you, so mention him a little more in the future. β
Li Lan said, "Uncle, my brothers and I will definitely be fine in the future." Big brother is much smarter than me, otherwise can you do finance, don't worry, you don't need to worry about this. β
Li Long lit a flue again, "Don't learn from your brother, I don't care, I don't care, it's not easy to have now." Your father and I have endured hardships, but your generation has never experienced it, cold and starvation, this kind of experience, you can't experience, your father is not angry, we are not as good as others.
Fortunately, at home, there is your aunt and your father to support you.
Since your dad was admitted to college, the family has slowly improved. β
In the history of the old Li family, Li Lan listened to his old man's nagging less, and most of them came from his grandmother and aunt.
said, "Uncle, I understand the truth." β
Li Ran nodded and said, "It's good to understand, Lao Tzu fights the country, his son sits on the country, Lao Tzu nagged a few words, don't like to listen, you say, why don't you talk to others, just talk to you, that's not for your good."
Like your brother, he doesn't know what to do at all. β
Li Lan said, "Big brother is doing very well now, and he has done a lot of investment, and the return on investment is quite high." β
Li Long said, "Without your father's support behind him, who can know who he is in Hong Kong, thinking that he is great, he has already been sold for money, and he is still reckless every day, and the mountains are not clear." β
Hearing this, Li Lan didn't talk about himself, sighed in his heart, and said with a reluctant smile, "Are you sleepy, go back to the house and sleep for a while." β
Li Long said, "If you don't sleep, just say a few words casually, don't like to listen." β
