Chapter 21: Counting within a Count
Luo Changqi looked around, and felt that the flowers and plants in this community were cultivated and pruned very exquisitely, and those holly bars were not grown arbitrarily by it, and they also made a few shapes, some were round, some were pointed, and some were gourd-shaped, and some flowers were added in the middle of the green plants, which were novel and beautiful. The management of the community, especially the gardening, is too casual, as if no one manages it. Luo Changqi suddenly felt that the property fee he paid seemed to be a loss, and the services and living environment he received were not as good as those in this community. When I went back to the owners' meeting, I had to remember to mention this matter, Luo Changqi was a member of their community owners' committee, so after he retired, he still had a little work task, although it was an amateur.
Luo Changqi looked at his feet carefully, the stone slab was also very finely paved, the gaps were even, and some small grass ran out of the stone cracks one by one, as if drawing a green line on the stone road, which looked much more lively and cute. Although Luo Changqi is not a romantic and fairy tale person, he has a comparative mentality, so he observes a lot more carefully.
Luo Changqi hadn't finished looking at the greening of the entire community, but he saw Qin Datong on the opposite side holding a big water cup and hurriedly walked over, and he was smiling, obviously coming to greet his in-laws. Luo Changqi was a little surprised, and then laughed too: "You're not here to greet me, are you?"
"I came here specifically, my daughter called, saying that a distinguished guest had arrived, and asked me to come over quickly. ”
It turned out that Qin Xiaoyan had called, no wonder Qin Datong was able to intercept Luo Changqi halfway.
"Shall we go home and sit down?or are we here?" Qin Datong asked Luo Changqi for his opinion.
Luo Changqi looked around, and there was a corridor not far away, which was covered with dense wisteria. Luo Chang pointed up: "Let's go sit there for a while." ”
"Okay, I'll tell you the truth, the house is very chaotic, and I'm still afraid of you going. Qin Datong let Luo Changqi go to the front, and he was a little behind.
"Do you have a secret?"
"No, my wife is not at home, I went back to her parents' house, the hygiene at home is not good, it is not good!" Qin Datong smiled embarrassedly.
"Ha, it's all the same, it's a little thing like hygiene, we big men, we're not good at it. ”
"Well, you see, these wisterias, they bloomed a lot a few days ago, they're really beautiful, and you're a little late. ”
They were getting closer and closer to the wisteria corridor, and they could already see the lush wisteria, and a few small wisteria flowers blooming. Luo Chang pointed and said, "Ha, there are still flowers, maybe waiting for me to admire." ”
Qin Datong laughed: "My family, you feel really good about yourself." Don't say it, your feeling, this momentum, well, is indeed stronger than me. He swallowed, as if Luo's face was thicker than his. Although I thought of this sentence, I was too embarrassed to say it, so I forcibly swallowed it back in laughter.
The two of them sat on the long cement seats, fortunately, although it was not wooden, this season, it was not too cold, and the feeling of sitting down was quite comfortable.
"In-laws, aren't you looking for me to play chess?" In Qin Datong's opinion, it seems that in terms of chess skills, he can beat Luo Changqi, and he is really not good in other aspects, so he picked up his biggest advantage to open.
Luo Changqi smiled: "I don't have that leisure, I came this time, I was entrusted by my insider, and I came to you." ”
"Daughter-in-law's house, she won't come? Oh, haha, avoid suspicion. Qin Datong was a little puzzled.
"No, she doesn't like to go out very much, so she entrusted me, our family, we are both equals, so anyone can represent anyone. ”
Qin Datong wanted to speak and stopped, in front of such a strong Luo Changqi, such a virtuous female family could still be on an equal footing with him, it was really hard to believe, but Qin Datong was not easy to expose directly, just smiled, picked up the water glass, and fiddled with it thoughtfully. In the face of this in-law who is not easy to deal with, Qin Datong is still very careful, he has tried many times, as long as he takes the initiative, he will definitely be passive in the end, so this time Qin Datong learned to be obedient and determined not to ask questions first.
Qin Datong suddenly became alert, and he seemed to have asked just now? Fortunately, he didn't cause too much trouble.
Seeing that Qin Datong stopped talking, Luo Changqi really couldn't wait: "In-laws, we care about Xiaoyan and help Xiaoyan find her mother-in-law." ”
Hearing this, Qin Datong's eyes immediately lit up: "You have a goal?"
"My wife has a goal there, you wait. Luo Changqi thought that his wife was troublesome the day before yesterday, so he sent him a few photos of the young man, but he didn't expect it to be used on the spot. Luo Changqi rummaged through the photos, and he glanced at Qin Datong: "By the way, how many WeChat numbers do you have? Add a WeChat, and I'll send it to you directly." ”
Qin Datong was a little embarrassed: "Ah, this, I don't have WeChat yet." He held up his phone, a black simple phone for the elderly.
Luo Changqi glanced at Qin Datong dissatisfiedly: "Are you still so backward? I have to criticize Zhengyang, you still use this broken mobile phone? Replace me another day and use it for you." ”
"No, it's not nothing, the children have replaced it, but it's too troublesome, it's all smart and there are too many functions, I can't use it, I can only make and receive calls. ”
"You, what about your daughter-in-law's family, Teacher Liu is the same as you?" Luo Chang frowned.
"She's not like me, she wants to learn everything, she can do anything. Speaking of the smart teacher Liu, Qin Datong was quite proud: "What kind of computer? mobile phone, it is not behind young people at all." ”
"Tut-tut, I really have to say you, Lao Qin, you can drag the whole family back. My in-laws are so smart, why don't I teach you?"
"Cut, I'll use her to teach? I, I don't like to use all those features. ”
Luo Changqi smiled: "Your wife taught you, are you still embarrassed? ”
Qin Datong was a little embarrassed by Luo Changqi's jokes, and quickly changed the topic: "What photo is it?"
Luo Changqi put the phone in front of Qin Datong's eyes and rummaged through the screen: "Look, this, this, how about it? It's all handsome, right? It's all the children of my wife's relatives or friends, and it's also a coincidence that she is asked to find a girlfriend, you say, it just so happens that we know that Xiaoyan doesn't have a partner yet?" Luo Changqi suddenly looked at Qin Datong: "She hasn't yet, right?"
Qin Datong sighed: "Alas, there are many people who introduce her, and there are many people who chase her, but this kid is very demanding, and he can't look down on any of them." We're worried, too. ”
"So, what kind of conditions is she?" Luo Chang was curious.
"Conditions?" Qin Datong said while thinking: "That is naturally the best, family background, appearance, temper of the in-laws, economic conditions, job, house, etc., all kinds of it, at least it must be more perfect." This child, Xiaoyan, although he doesn't talk much, is very demanding. ”
"The requirements are not low, then the two of you, what do you two want?"
"We, we don't have anything, as long as the girl agrees. ”
Because Luo Chang cared about Qin Datong's heart and mind, the relationship between the two suddenly became cordial, as if they had encountered a common enemy. The two looked at the photos together, commented together, and had a common language.
Qin Datong told Luo Changqi: "Don't be satisfied with this one, pay more attention and grasp the situation more, my daughter is very picky." There's a saying, what's the point?
Luo Changqi immediately said: "The child is dazzled, we can't spend it, hurry up! I find the target, I'll send it to you!"
"Hair, send on your phone?"
"You hurry up and learn WeChat, I feel ashamed to have such a backward in-laws as you!" Luo Chang raised his face and taught a lesson.
Facing Luo Changqi's ridicule, Qin Datong blushed in embarrassment.
……
The in-laws cared about the things that the old Qin family cared about the most, which was very moving, and it made Qin Datong more concerned than mentioning whether or not to have grandchildren. But Luo Changqi's meaning is also very clear, the top priority of the old Qin family is to marry a daughter, and the top priority of the old Luo family is to hold a grandson, the two families help each other, and both sides benefit, killing two birds with one stone.
Luo Changqi didn't just pay lip service, he took action the next day, and there were results, Luo Changqi ordered his wife: "The photo of your relative, send it to my mobile phone quickly." ”
Luo's mother was puzzled: "I said, Lao Qin doesn't know how to use a smartphone, isn't it white hair when you send it to him?"
"I'm going to learn, I'm going to do it right away. Besides, there is also Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu is smart. ”
Luo's mother thought for a while: "Yes, Mr. Liu can do anything." ”
……
Qin Datong was clumsily trying out the mobile phone: "Teacher Liu, can this mobile phone still work? ”
"It's not bad, it's my son who dislikes the outdated mobile phone, there is a new model, people bought it, put it here, and prepare for me to use it." I don't need it, so I'll just leave it first. ”
Qin Datong was still a little puzzled: "Are you sure it's not broken?"
"Of course not, you, if you don't believe me, give me a call?
Qin Datong hurriedly made a call to his wife, and Mr. Liu's mobile phone rang immediately: "Look, it's okay, right?"
"But, if there's nothing wrong with this, why hasn't Lao Luo's photo been sent yet?"
Teacher Liu looked at the anxious Qin Datong helplessly: "Ouch, you just learned to read WeChat, so you are in a hurry like this?"
"No, my in-laws said it, and I will send it right away!" Qin Datong always suspected that there was something wrong with the mobile phone: "Is WeChat unreliable? Anyway, there are not many reliable things on the Internet." ”
Teacher Liu glanced at Qin Datong: "You can wait for a few minutes, maybe you will come soon." I'm going grocery shopping. ”
Qin Datong immediately became nervous: "Don't don't, you wait, when I see the photo, you go again, I'll go with you!
