Chapter 429-430 The King of Soldiers (II)

After Zhuang Rui sat down, he looked at Peng Fei for the first time, but Peng Fei always stood in the backlit place since he entered the house, and the light in the room was relatively dim, Zhuang Rui looked down on his face a little, but he saw that this person was not tall and a little thin. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

I couldn't see Peng Fei clearly, Zhuang Rui's eyes looked at the room, on the walls of the room, there were newspapers, and there was a double bed with two floors in the innermost, which took up about one-fifth of the space in this room, and the bed below was covered with a military quilt and military coat, and there was only a very thin quilt on it, which must have been Peng Fei's sleep.

In the middle of the room, where Zhuang Rui and Hao Long are sitting now, there is a table, there are only two chairs, after giving it to the guests, Peng Fei is now standing.

And near the door, there was a stove with a chimney that seemed to be homemade, which stretched crookedly from the stove to the door, making the room a little hotter, but after Zhuang Rui sat down, he still felt a little cold.

There was nothing in the room except for a simple wardrobe and pots and spoons stacked on a panel at the door.

This is a room that combines the bedroom, kitchen, and living room, all together, to put it simply, this space of more than ten square meters is where Peng Fei and his sister live.

There were elementary school textbooks on the table, the little girl should have been doing her homework just now, and the arrival of Zhuang Rui and Hao Long seemed to disturb the lives of the two brothers and sisters.

"Dalong, it's rare for you to come over, I still have some wine here, take a drink to warm up my body......"

Peng Fei walked to the door and took out a bottle of Erguotou without opening, which was actually the same as what Bai Feng took out, three yuan and two cents a bottle of Hongxing Erguotou, it seems that this wine is deeply loved by the people of Beijing, regardless of wealth or poverty, it is good to take such a sip.

Peng Fei still held three small bowls in his left hand, and after putting them on the table, the thumb of his right hand holding the wine was under the lid of the wine bottle, and with a soft "pop", the wine bottle cap was opened...... Knock ...... poured the wine into the bowl.

After pouring the wine, Peng Fei raised his head and looked at Zhuang Rui and said, "Boss Zhuang, I only have this wine, if you can't get used to it, drink tea......

Peng Fei didn't speak loudly, and after he finished speaking, he pursed his lips tightly, he had a melon seed face, the skin on his face was very fair, and when he spoke, he seemed to be a little shy, looking like a college student who had just entered society.

But Peng Fei's eyes were very peculiar, obviously looking at Zhuang Rui, but there was no expression, empty, as if there was air in front of him.

This is also the first time after Zhuang Rui entered the house to see Peng Fei's appearance clearly, completely different from what he imagined, when listening to Hao Long tell Peng Fei's story, Zhuang Rui thought that Peng Fei was a rugged-looking man, but he didn't expect Peng Fei to be so delicate.

Zhuang Rui really can't imagine how the young man in front of him killed several drug dealers in a row, in fact, there are many things that Zhuang Rui doesn't know, Peng Fei has not only dealt with drug dealers, but also clashed with many forces in Thailand and Burma and the regular army, and there are far more than six lives on his hands, and even Hao Long doesn't know much about these things.

"When it's cold, just drink a bar!"

Zhuang Rui didn't talk nonsense, picked up the small bowl, raised his neck and poured it down, this bowl was about three taels of more than fifty-six degrees after the two pots were put into the stomach, Zhuang Rui only felt that from his throat to his stomach, it was a burst of heat, and his body was also warm.

After drinking the wine in the bowl, Zhuang Rui put down the bowl and stood up, and said, "There is wine and no food, Hao Long, you drink first, there is still some food in the car, I'll go get it......"

"Boss, I'll go get it......" Hao Long quickly stood up.

"No, you comrades-in-arms let's talk first......" Zhuang Rui waved his hand, pushed open the door and walked out, some words, Hao Long said, are more appropriate than himself.

Although Zhuang Rui only met Peng Fei once, he still didn't know what he was like, but Zhuang Rui believed that the young people who could guard his sister and live such a poor life must have experienced many unknown things, and people like them, if they made a choice, they would never betray, just like Peng Fei left the army and did not do evil.

Zhuang Rui's car had some local products that others gave to his grandfather, such as vacuum-packed cooked food such as Texas grilled chicken, these are not the kind sold on the street, but pickled from authentic secret recipes, but the old man has a bad mouth, so Ouyang Wan asked Zhuang Rui to take it back and prepare it for Zhang's mother and Hao Long to eat.

After taking a few bags of Texas grilled chicken, Zhuang Rui saw a bag of apples and took it in his hand, but he didn't rush back, but set the car on fire and sat in it and lit a cigarette, he wanted to leave the two of them a little more time to talk.

After smoking the cigarette, Zhuang Rui sat for a while, feeling like it had been almost twenty minutes, and then pushed the door and got out of the car, stomped his feet, and walked towards the village.

After entering Peng Fei's house, Zhuang Rui saw that the little girl who was originally sitting on the bed had red eyes at this time, as if she had cried just now, and she didn't know what Peng Fei and Hao Long talked about, which aroused the sadness of the little girl.

"That's all there are bags of cooked food, open them and eat them, Yaya, give you a chicken thigh......"

Zhuang Rui put the bag on the table, opened a bag of Texas grilled chicken, and then tore off a chicken thigh with the bag and handed it to the little girl who was lying on the bedside and looking at him with wide eyes.

"Brother...... My brother said that you can't just take other people's things......"

Yaya looked at the chicken thigh, and subconsciously stretched out her hand, but after glancing at Peng Fei, she hesitated for a moment, and still retracted the outstretched hand, but when she spoke, Zhuang Rui saw her throat move up and down, and seemed to swallow a mouthful of saliva.

Peng Fei, who had stopped talking since Zhuang Rui entered the house, suddenly spoke at this time. "Yaya, eat, Brother Zhuang is not an outsider......"

"Hey, thank you, big brother......"

After hearing her brother's words, the little girl's eyes narrowed into a crescent moon with a smile, and she stretched out her little hand to take the chicken thigh handed over by Zhuang Rui, but she didn't bite it, but licked it in her mouth, and then jumped off the bed, walked to Peng Fei's side, and said, "Brother, you eat first, and after eating, you will have the strength to work tomorrow......"

"Brother is still there, Yaya eats by herself, my brother wants to have something to say to Brother Zhuang......"

Peng Fei didn't take the chicken leg handed over by Yaya, but rubbed her little head dotingly, carried her back to the bed, and then turned around and looked at Zhuang Rui.

"Brother Zhuang, I have told Dalong everything in my family, he will tell you when I turn around, he wants me to do it with you, no problem, I only have one request, that is, to let Yaya have a stable learning environment, just be able to eat and dress warmly, as for the salary or something, you look at it, it doesn't matter how much, as long as you promise to take care of Yaya, my Peng Fei's life will be sold to you!"

Peng Fei didn't speak quickly, and said the above words almost word by word, and the eyes that were originally godless and empty, like a sword out of its sheath, stared at Zhuang Rui tightly, as if he wanted to see from Zhuang Rui's eyes whether his answer was sincere.

Peng Fei asked himself if he was not a bad person, but he was also not a saint, he adhered to the bottom line in his heart, that is, he did not do evil, but now that he has the opportunity to make his life and his sister better, he will not refuse either.

"Brother, are you going to leave again, I don't want you to go, I want to be with you, big brother, I don't want your chicken legs......"

The little girl was happily eating chicken legs, but after hearing Peng Fei's words, she immediately jumped off the bed and stuffed the half-eaten chicken legs into Zhuang Rui's hands.

Zhuang Rui took the chicken leg to the little girl again, and said with a smile: "Yaya, don't worry, your brother will live with you, and he will live in a very big house......"

"Really?" Yaya tilted her head and looked at Zhuang Rui very seriously.

"Of course it's true, you can move into a new house today, and you and your brother still live together......"

At the age of seven or eight years old, it is already possible to tell whether the adult is true or false, the little girl stared at Zhuang Rui for a while, nodded and did not say anything more.

After leveling the little guy, Zhuang Rui turned his head, looked at Peng Fei, and said: "Give me the nature of the job, Hao Long may have told you, this is Beijing, not a battlefield, and the security work is very simple, not as nervous as you think, and there is no need to say anything like selling your life, I hired security, not a killer."

If you don't have a lot of things, you can move in today, by the way, what grade is Yaya in now? I'll have someone help him with the transfer procedures tomorrow......"

Before Peng Fei could reply, the little girl hurriedly asked, "Big brother, can I go to school?"

"What, didn't Yaya go to school?" Zhuang Rui was stunned for a moment and turned his head to look at Peng Fei.

"Boss, come out and I'll tell you......"

Hao Long stood up at this time, glanced at Zhuang Rui, pushed open the door and walked out, this room was too small, Hao Long didn't want to expose other people's scars in front of Peng Fei.

"Boss, I just found out just now, is this the case......" After walking out of the door, Hao Long told Zhuang Rui everything he had just known.

It turned out that at this time last year, Hao Long's parents in the countryside, because they did not use the chimney when they burned the stove in winter, on a particularly cold afternoon, Hao Long's parents sealed the house tightly, but they did not expect carbon monoxide poisoning, and when Yaya came home from school, his parents had stopped breathing.

When Peng Fei got the news, he was in the middle of chasing drug dealers, and when he saw his comrades being tortured and killed, and then remembered his parents who had just passed away, Peng Fei lost control of his emotions and shot those drug dealers.

Peng Fei is a person with a strong personality, after being forced to discharge from the army and returning home, he used the discharge fee of more than 10,000 yuan to settle his parents' death, and then picked up his sister who was frightened and never went to school again from a relative's house.

Chapter 430: Birthday Banquet

As soon as Yaya got home, she would remember the situation when she saw her parents lying on the bed after school that day, and her spirit was very unstable, so in desperation, Peng Fei left home with her sister and first found a job as a dance hall security guard.

But the messy things in the dance hall made Peng Fei very unaccustomed to it, seeing those drug dealers and drug addicts, Peng Fei almost couldn't hold back several times, and wanted to break the other party's neck, and then simply resigned, came here to rent a house, and worked as a porter.

Peng Fei's income as a porter is not high, he can only earn fifty or sixty yuan a day, and renting this broken house costs four or five hundred yuan a month, plus Peng Fei wants to save some money and let Yaya go to school next year, so the two brothers and sisters have been living a very hard life, but whenever they buy something delicious, Peng Fei also gave it to his sister, and he was afraid that Yaya would not be able to keep up with her studies in the future, so Hao Long took the evening time to help her sister tutor her homework in elementary school.

After Zhuang Rui heard Hao Long talk about this, he was also embarrassed in his heart, this person is really very fragile, life is too short for the earth that has existed for hundreds of millions of years, which also made Zhuang Rui secretly decide in his heart to cherish his current life and cherish every relative around him.

After Zhuang Rui and Hao Long returned to the house, Peng Fei put down the apple he was peeling for his sister, stood up from the table, and said: "Boss Zhuang, I'd better go over tomorrow, the job in the freight yard has to be resigned, this house has to be returned, it's late today, Dalong turned around and gave me the address, and I'll find it myself tomorrow......"

"Huh?wolffang?!"

Zhuang Rui didn't pay attention to Peng Fei's words, as soon as he entered the room, he was attracted by the knife in Peng Fei's hand to cut apples, he was too familiar with that knife, he used to see Zhou Rui playing in his hand, and he still didn't figure out where Zhou Rui hid the knife on his body?

After Peng Fei heard Zhuang Rui's words, his face moved slightly, his wrist flipped, and the knife that was still playing between his fingers just now disappeared like magic, and a pair of eyes looked at Zhuang Rui and said, "How did Boss Zhuang know that I was from the Wolf Tooth Army?"

The secrecy level of Peng Fei's troops is very high, even Hao Long, and he only knows a little roughly, and Zhuang Rui can actually guess his origin just by seeing his knife, which makes Peng Fei take aback, and his eyes when he looks at Zhuang Rui also become serious.

"I have a friend who has a knife in his hand, exactly like yours, you should be from the same place, right?" Zhuang Rui paused for a moment, and then said: "My friend's name is Zhou Rui......

"Old squad leader, Boss Zhuang, do you have the phone number of squad leader Zhou, can you give it to me?"

After Peng Fei heard Zhuang Rui's words, his face, which had always looked a little unwavering, finally showed a look of surprise, Zhuang Rui was also stunned when he heard it, this China's more than one billion people, how could it be such a coincidence, Peng Fei and Zhou Rui actually knew each other? It was really from the same army.

"Yes, yes, I'll write it down for you......"

Zhuang Rui left Zhou Rui's mobile phone number for Peng Fei in Yaya's homework book, and then said to Hao Long: "Brother Hao, you take the mobile phone to Peng Fei first, tomorrow you drive my car to pick them up, after this busy time, I will give Peng Fei a mobile phone ......"

As early as last month, Zhuang Rui bought Hao Long a mobile phone, for the current Zhuang Rui, this thing is not worth a few dollars, and it is easy to contact, because his house is too big, and it will take several minutes to call someone in the middle courtyard.

"Boss, I'll just rent a car tomorrow, don't you have anything to do......" Hao Long took out his mobile phone from his pocket and handed it to Peng Fei.

"It's okay, Ming'er has a car to go. ”

Ouyang Long and none of them have a car, just take a ride, Zhuang Rui saw that everything was almost done, so he said to Peng Fei: "Then let's do this first, let's go back, you can take Yaya over tomorrow." ”

"Thank you, thank you, Boss Zhuang......"

Peng Fei said this sincerely, when Zhuang Rui first came, he just regarded Zhuang Rui as a rich boss in his heart, as long as his sister can settle down, Peng Fei is nothing even if he is wronged, and he has little respect for Zhuang Rui in his heart.

But after Zhuang Rui came to this house, his attitude towards his sister and his bold behavior of drinking the bowl of Erguotou wine in one gulp made Peng Fei a little impressed, according to Hao Long, this is a big boss with a net worth of hundreds of millions, and Peng Fei feels that there is no shelf, which makes people feel good unconsciously.

And when Zhuang Rui said that he was friends with Zhou Rui, Peng Fei had three points of respect in his heart, he knew that his old squad leader was a person who couldn't tolerate sand in his eyes, and if Zhuang Rui was a sneaky person, he would never be able to make friends with the old squad leader.

Peng Fei asked Zhuang Rui to write down Zhou Rui's mobile phone number, and was going to answer a phone line to make a secret call later, but he didn't expect Zhuang Rui to directly ask Hao Long to leave his mobile phone, which shows that Zhuang Rui is open-minded and not afraid of him contacting Zhou Rui.

When Zhuang Rui and Hao Long drove back to the courtyard, it was already more than 10 o'clock in the evening, Zhuang Rui went to Sister-in-law Li, and explained, asking her to clean up a room tomorrow and come out, the main house in the front yard has not been occupied, there are two bedrooms in it, as well as independent toilets and bathrooms, which happened to be lived by Peng Fei and his sisters.

After finishing these things, Zhuang Rui took a bath and went to bed, the old man Ming'er has a big birthday, but he has to go spiritually, but just after falling asleep, the phone rang again.

"Brother Zhou, hehe, it was Peng Fei who called you, right?"

As soon as Zhuang Rui looked at the caller ID, he understood in his heart that he originally wanted to call Zhou Rui, but it was a little late, so he didn't call, but he didn't expect Zhou Rui to call instead.

"Yes, Zhuang Rui, thank you so much, that kid is a good soldier, he was directly promoted in the third year of enlistment, and his military quality is much stronger than mine, I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen, alas, it's a pity ......"

Zhou Rui's voice on the phone was a little low, his comrade-in-arms who had intersected with life and death before, when this kind of thing happened at home, he was also very uncomfortable, he was silent for a while, and then said: "Zhuang Rui, although I don't know how to speak, but I know in my heart that I can live this day today, thanks to you and Dachuan, I was not qualified to ask you, just take it as Brother Zhou begging you, help my comrade-in-arms, if you can't settle there, let him come to me." ”

"Brother Zhou, I don't have that to say, I finally found someone who can be trusted, don't make up your mind, don't worry, what kind of person is my Zhuang Rui, you also know that you can't treat Peng Fei badly, at least he won't be worse than you in the future......"

When Zhuang Rui heard Zhou Rui's words, he was not happy, if I sent you there, why did I spend so much effort.

Zhou Rui knew Zhuang Rui's character, and he said the above words in a hurry just now, and now he also knew that he had lost his words, so he didn't mention it again at the moment, and chatted with Zhuang Rui about Luo Jiang Zhuoyu for a few words, and then hung up the phone.

"You children, why are you only here now, Xiaolu, Xiaojun, you follow your eldest brother and go outside to welcome guests, Xiaorui, you come in, look at your grandparents, Xu Qing, you are pregnant, don't follow the work, go, take a few children to the next room......"

As soon as Zhuang Rui and the others arrived at Yuquan Mountain the next day, they were busy as assigned by Ouyang Wan, Ouyang Lei took a few grandchildren, stood at the gate to greet the guests, and Ouyang Zhenhua's third brother was sitting in the side room, and when he saw people with similar identities coming, he would go out to greet them.

From more than ten o'clock in the morning, the guests began to come, and the people who can come to the door today are at least senior officials at or above the provincial and ministerial level, like department-level cadres, who have visited a few days ago, those who are close to each other, who belong to the Ouyang family's sphere of influence, may be able to meet the old man, and those who are a little far away can only see the posts and gifts, and they are not even qualified to enter the door to see the old man.

Most of these people are accompanied by Ouyang Zhenwu, and they will sit in the house for a little longer, most of these people are old subordinates of the old man, or people who have been promoted, to a certain extent, they are also the foundation of the Ouyang family.

Ouyang Gang's spirit today is very good, wearing an old-fashioned military uniform without epaulettes, sitting in the hall, his waist is straight, and he has seen a few old subordinates before, which makes him feel like he has returned to a few decades ago, commanding thousands of troops.

After the guests came in, most of them greeted the old man, and then said some words of blessing, and then they were led out by the staff, and there was originally a small hall in Yuquan Mountain, which was used as a banquet today, where a melon and fruit platter had already been placed.

The people who went out from the old man's place all went to the small hall and sat down, these people were very familiar with each other, but they also chatted calmly, waiting for the birthday banquet to start after the old man came over at noon.

Just now, Ouyang Jun ran around and came back and said that if a bomb fell, more than half of the provinces in the country would be paralyzed, and this was heard by his son, and the angry Ouyang Zhenwu twisted Ouyang Jun's ears and pulled the room to teach a lesson.

Zhuang Rui is the most idle today, his task is to accompany the old man and the old lady to chat inside, watching those cousins take the guests in and out, and he has a sense of superiority.

It's not good at all in the house, but whenever someone comes in, after greeting the old man and the old lady, the eyes always have to look at Zhuang Rui for a long time, as if Zhuang Rui's face has grown flowers, which makes him very uncomfortable.

However, Zhuang Rui can be regarded as having gained knowledge today, and the people who can come in today are all local officials, or military generals with heavy power, and the people who came this time are more than August 15, and in Zhuang Rui's eyes, they are all people with majestic faces and who have been in the top position for a long time.

Zhuang Rui checked it just now, and there were more than ten generals alone, and there were countless lieutenant generals and major generals, but their treatment was a little worse, and most of them were three or five people who came in together to celebrate the old man's birthday.

Among them, the commander stationed in Hong Kong was also among them, but Zhuang Rui saw that his military rank had been promoted to lieutenant general, and when he entered the room, he nodded to Zhuang Rui, but he didn't have time to talk, and there were more people in line behind.

At half past eleven o'clock in the afternoon, Zhuang Rui helped his grandfather, Ouyang Wan helped his grandmother, and came to the birthday banquet hall, there were more than a dozen tables in the auditorium, and in the middle of the position, there was a big word for longevity, as soon as Ouyang Gang walked into the auditorium, applause rang out.

After the famous black-faced sensational male host of CCTV introduced the life and deeds of the old man with emotion, a member of the Politburo Standing Committee at the same level as Ouyang Zhenhua, on behalf of the party and the people, wished the old man good health, and said some auspicious words, and then the juniors of the Ouyang family congratulated the old man on his birthday and offered gifts.

This order naturally starts with the boss Ouyang Zhenhua, in fact, there is nothing special about the gifts, they are nothing more than some items such as longevity and longevity plaques, the old man and the old lady are mainly satisfied when they see their children and grandchildren.

"Mom, Dad, Grandpa, Grandma, I wish you two elders good health and all the best......"

After Ouyang Zhenhua's brothers finished their birthdays, Ouyang Wan took her son and daughter, as well as her son-in-law and grandson, and stepped forward and bowed a few times to the second elder sitting on the chair.

"Hey, that young man is the grandson of the old man, right? Why did he take a fruit basket and go up, this is too shabby, isn't it?"

"Yes, today's young people, everything is perfunctory, such an important thing as the birthday of the first generation, and the younger generation is so careless, it really shouldn't be ......"

The birthday gifts that the first few people took up, although they are not particularly valuable, but they all have their meanings, compared to the fruit basket that Zhuang Rui carried in his hand, which can be bought for thirty or fifty yuan at the entrance of the hospital, it is a little less solemn.

Although these people in the field are not very important to things outside the body such as gifts, they are still a little dismissive of what Zhuang Rui is taking, in fact, they really didn't guess wrong, Zhuang Rui put the bamboo basket of jade carving ornaments, and he really spent a hundred yuan to buy it from the side of the road, but he just took out the original flowers.

What made everyone even more angry was that Zhuang Rui actually took out the fruit plate and placed it on an octagonal wooden coffee table between the old man and the old lady's seat.

"I said the fifth brother, what kind of fame are you doing? A few of our brothers, you have the thickest net worth, why are the things you take out so shabby?" After Zhuang Rui retreated to the main seat, Ouyang Jun whispered sarcastically to Zhuang Rui.

When Zhuang Rui was about to reply, Ouyang Lei, who had just gone to see off the big guy, suddenly walked in briskly from outside the auditorium and said something in the old man's ear, Ouyang Gang, who had been sitting firmly on the chair, actually stood up.
