286. Sludge can't hold up the wall
However, Zhou Rui has already helped him once, if Zhang Wenhuo still can't seize the opportunity, it can only be said that he is indeed a piece of mud that can't support the wall.
didn't say much about this matter, Zhang Wenhuo was about to bring Zhou Rui into the courtyard, but Zhou Rui said: "Wait, I brought a gift for Sun Lao and put it in the trunk." ”
"Oh, I told you that you don't need to bring gifts, why do you still break the bank. Zhang Wenhuo said.
"It's not a valuable item, didn't you say that Sun Lao likes to raise flowers, I heard that people who like to raise flowers must raise orchids. I happened to have it at home, so I brought it. Zhou Rui said.
The two walked to the back of the car, and before they could open the trunk, a car stopped nearby.
A man and a woman about forty years old got out of the car, Zhang Wenhuo saw the two of them, and hurriedly greeted them, saying, "Dehua, Pan Xue, you are here." Your sister and dad are in there......"
Sun Dehua is the second son of Sun Changyun's younger brother Sun Changfeng, and he is also a relatively prosperous person in the Sun family.
After growing up, he graduated from a key university and then returned to work in a state-owned enterprise in Luzhou.
And his father, Sun Changfeng, is the leader of that state-owned enterprise. Relying on his father's relationship, Andy Sun improved quickly in the unit. In just a few years, he has gone from a small worker at the grassroots level to a deputy section-level cadre.
Two years ago, Sun Changfeng retired due to his age, and before he retired, he forcibly promoted Sun Dehua to the position of third-in-command.
In Luzhou, the third-in-command of that state-owned enterprise is at least equivalent to the deputy department.
There are thousands of people in charge under his hands, and at the age of forty-two years old, Andy Sun can be regarded as young and promising. If he works harder, he may be able to go further in the future and reach the same status as his father Sun Changfeng.
His wife, Pan Xue, is the daughter of a wealthy businessman in Luzhou. Although he started as a hot pot, because he occupied the right time and place, he is now worth tens of millions.
In contrast, although Zhang Wenhuo also graduated from university, he has only just become the captain of the urban management team, and he is not even a cadre.
As for his wife Sun Xuemei, she is the eldest daughter in the Sun family, but she is only the deputy director of the office in the city, and she is not as high as Sun Dehua.
Because of their different achievements, Andy Sun and Pan Xue have always looked down on their cousin and his wife.
Cousin Sun Xuemei is better, decent, and it is already very good to be able to be the deputy director of the office without too much background.
As for cousin-in-law Zhang Wenhuo......
I heard that you are related to the Zhang family, which has assets of 100 billion yuan in Qingzhou, but what kind of people are you mixed up?
People in their forties and almost fifty have achieved nothing. At the age of fifty, many people are ready to retire, and you run to become a chengguan?
There's no shame in that!
If it weren't for the fact that the second uncle, Sun Changyun, was also a celebrity, Sun Dehua wouldn't bother to take care of him on weekdays.
At this moment, Zhang Wenhuo took the initiative to say hello, and Sun Dehua said impatiently: "I know, I am more familiar than you here." ”
Zhang Wenhuo smiled, feeling a little embarrassed, and explained to Zhou Rui: "This is the son of the third uncle, Xuemei's cousin and sister-in-law. Dehua, this is Mr. Zhou, who came from Qingzhou to celebrate Dad's birthday. ”
Sun Dehua glanced at Zhou Rui, he was not impressed at all, and he was not a celebrity. Besides, his surname is Zhou, and he is not surnamed Zhang.
When the surname Zhang comes, he can not give face, let alone other surnames?
Looking at Zhou Rui's Mercedes-Benz C-class again, Andy Sun couldn't help but sneer. Although he did not speak, his contempt was self-evident.
didn't mean to say hello at all, Andy Sun took Pan Xue directly and walked to the courtyard.
Pan Xue is a woman after all, although she also looks down on Zhang Wenhuo, she will not be too straightforward like her husband. Especially Zhou Rui has no grievances with them, is it not good to be so impolite?
Andy Sun smiled and said, "What's so good, we don't know him very well." Look at the way he dresses and the car he drives, you know that he is not a big person. Besides, how many people does Zhang Wenhuo know are useful?"
"That's right. Pan Xue nodded, deeply convinced.
Zhang Wenhuo has been unproductive in the Sun family for so many years, and the relatives around him know that there is really nothing to worry about.
The two didn't think much about it and went straight into the courtyard.
Zhang Wenhuo on the other side was full of embarrassment, and said to Zhou Rui: "Mr. Zhou, I'm really sorry, they ......"
"I can understand that. Zhou Rui smiled, the attitudes of Andy Sun and Pan Xue were very familiar to him. Didn't the relatives of the Ji family treat him like this before?
Looking at Zhang Wenhuo's uncomfortable face, Zhou Rui couldn't help but say, "Have you ever thought about doing something by yourself to reverse the image in their minds?"
"Career, I'm doing it, and I'm now the captain of the chengguan team. Zhang Wenhuo said.
"What kind of career is the captain of the chengguan team, do you think they will pay attention to you because of this?"
Zhang Wenhuo also understands this, he is not a fool, and he can still tell what kind of eyes others have.
"But ......" Zhang Wenhuo sighed and said, "I don't know anyone, and I don't know how to do business." What's more, I'm old, I've been fifty years old for two years, what other career can I do. ”
Obviously, Zhang Wenhuo has long been smoothed out by life and has lost that enterprising spirit. Perhaps, this is where Sun Xuemei is not used to looking at him.
Sometimes women don't necessarily have to see how strong your career is, they need to see an attitude more often than not.
As long as you keep working hard and striving for your goal, that's enough.
After all, success is not something that is just talk, nor is it something that can be done with hard work alone, but also luck.
It's just that many men don't even have an attitude, which is the most unacceptable thing for women.
Zhang Wenhuo is obviously this category, he always feels that he is old and can no longer fight like a young man. In that case, why force anything. Anyway, now there is no shortage of food or clothing at home, which is also very good.
At this time, an electric car stopped, and a girl about seventeen or eighteen years old got out of the car and said hello to Zhang Wenhuo.
When Zhang Wenhuo saw her, he immediately showed a very happy look, and introduced: "Xinxin, this is your Uncle Zhou, who came to celebrate your grandfather's birthday." ”
"Oh. Zhang Wenxin glanced at Zhou Rui, and then frowned: "Dad, don't you know that grandpa doesn't like to be disturbed by too many people, he said that he would be our own relatives today, why do you still call others to come?"
Zhang Wenhuo is a man with no interest, but his daughter is very capable.
From childhood to adulthood, I have been among the best in my studies, and if nothing else, I will either go to Tsinghua University or Peking University after the college entrance examination.
For this girl, Zhang Wenhuo is quite proud. The less capable you are, the more you want your child to be capable.
However, the girl is too capable, so she naturally thinks that her father is too bad......
Since junior high school, Zhang Wenxin has not had a good relationship with her father Zhang Wenhuo.
You don't know anything, you don't know anything, why do you always want to discipline me, or rather, what qualifications do you have to discipline me?
This is what Zhang Wenxin really thinks.
Therefore, when she saw Zhou Rui, she didn't greet politely at first, but first thought about criticizing her father's inappropriate behavior.
Zhang Wenhuo is even more embarrassed, even if he is despised by Sun Dehua, it is really embarrassing for his daughter to lose face like this.
"What, your grandfather also knows Mr. Zhou's ......"
"Okay, I'm too lazy to care, anyway, it's not me who will be scolded for a while. I won't tell you, I think Uncle Dehua seems to be here, just looking for him. Zhang Wenxin said, pushed the electric car and left.
Zhang Wenhuo's face was full of unnaturalness, and he said to Zhou Rui: "What's that...... My daughter is very good at studying, so sometimes she is a little proud, don't worry. ”
Looking at his cautious and cautious appearance, Zhou Rui sighed, patted him on the shoulder and said, "I don't think she is proud, but you ...... Well, forget it, if you plan to develop any career in the future, you can call me. ”
"Okay, good ......" Zhang Wenhuo nodded again and again, but judging by his expression, there should be no intention of this.
Zhou Rui didn't say much, he did everything he could, and the rest depended on how he chose.
After opening the trunk, Zhang Wenhuo immediately let out a compliment: "It's so fragrant, what kind of orchid does Mr. Zhou bring here?"
On the way here, Zhou Rui was afraid that the flowers would be damaged, so he covered them with a cardboard box. Hearing Zhang Wenhuo ask, he said, "I don't know what flowers are, anyway, it should be pretty good." ”
With that, he picked up the cardboard box and walked towards the yard with Zhang Wenhuo.
Zhang Wenhuo didn't care too much, orchids are actually very common, not too unusual.
In his opinion, Zhou Rui came from afar, and estimated that this flower should have just been bought from the market, and it would be very good if it could be worth one or two thousand.
He would never have thought that Zhou Rui actually didn't know anything about flowers.
Although Ji Zeming likes flowers, he has no time to raise them because of work.
However, after inquiring about his father-in-law, Ji Zeming still explained a series of flowers.
After hearing this, Zhou Rui finally chose the common but valuable orchid.
Just trying to buy flowers from the market, this season is not easy, and he doesn't have that much American time to choose. In the end, he simply relied on the golden light and gave birth to a tree out of thin air.
A ball of golden light, which can save a human life, is used to condense orchids, which is still very luxurious.
But when he actually saw the orchid, he felt that it was worth it.
None of the things that are "transformed" by the golden light of morality are bad, absolutely the best in the world!
Zhang Wenhuo couldn't imagine that flowers could be transformed into golden light, and Zhou Rui also couldn't imagine what kind of sensational effect the orchids transformed from golden light would cause.
If he knew that a top-grade orchid could sell for millions or even tens of millions, he might think about it again and not let Jinguang "play freely".
All in all, the orchid that was covered by the ordinary-looking and even somewhat shabby cardboard box, Zhang Wenhuo and Zhou Rui didn't pay much attention to it.
When the two walked into the courtyard, they happened to hear Sun Changyun's hearty laughter.
