Chapter 144: Uncle
At this time, a pleasant mobile phone rang, and Zhengji picked up the phone but found the phone of Dong Wei, the third aunt of the time.
"Hello? Third uncle, what's the matter? Masaki said as he pressed the answer button.
"Xiao Zheng, when I came to Yanjing, I only came to eat with my third aunt, did I forget my third aunt when I became famous", Dong Wei's voice pretending to be angry came from the phone.
Zhengji didn't expect that he had just come to Yanjing yesterday, and the third aunt got the news, and said with a wry smile on the phone: "How can it be, third aunt, I just forgot that no one can forget you, this is not just yesterday, there are some things today, so I didn't come and go, I originally planned to see you in two days."
"Okay, okay, you really think that your third aunt will be angry with you, it's better to be busy, you are productive now, you are busy, with such a good son as you, the second sister's family is out of the blue," Dong Wei said with a smile.
"Dad, what are you talking about, hurry up and let Brother Zhengji come to dinner, I haven't seen Brother Zhengji for a long time, and I want to die", Dong Yuyi's voice rang next to the phone.
"Look at it, as soon as Yu Yi heard that you came to Yanjing, he urged you to come to dinner, how about it? Do you have time at night? Have a meal with your uncle? Your third aunt has made the best delicious food for you," Dong Wei said with a smile.
Zhengji looked at Wang Fang on the side in embarrassment, showed a look of apology, and said to the third aunt on the other end of the phone: "Okay, third aunt, I'll go over now, I haven't eaten the food cooked by the third aunt for a long time, it's weird."
"Okay, okay, uncle-in-law is waiting for you, I have prepared for you the wine I have treasured for many years, let's have a good drink together in the evening," Dong Wei heard Zhengji's answer, and said happily loudly, and Dong Yuyi on the side also jumped happily.
Hanging up the phone, Zhengji looked at Wang Fang apologetically and said, "Sister Wang, I'm really sorry, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat the food you made tonight, my family has something to do, I have to go over."
The disappointment on Wang Fang's face flashed, and he showed a thoughtful smile and said, "Okay, you're busy with you, it's okay."
Zhengji nodded, put on the coat he had just taken off, said hello to Hu Yu and the others, and asked Han Yang to take the car keys and go out.
"It's almost night, where is Masaki going?" Hu Yu asked curiously looking at the back of Zhengji.
"He said he was going to see a relative, so he didn't eat at home at night," Wang Fang said, shrugging her shoulders.
"It's true, it's a waste of Wang Fang's heart, you have made so many delicious foods, you can only cheapen me and Han Yang", Hu Yu quipped.
"How so? Everyone eats the same", Wang Fang smiled and shook her head, but there was a trace of regret in her heart that Zhengji couldn't taste her food.
On the other side, Dong Wei's house also began to get busy, and the third aunt Li Xiuhe shouted to her husband sitting in the living room while stir-frying: "Dong Wei, political discipline is coming, don't sit still, hurry up and clean up your house, look at what the mess has become, be careful to let your nephew laugh at you."
"How so? I don't know my nephew yet, what a good young man, how can he laugh at his uncle", Dong Wei said with a smile, but the movements of his hands were indeed very honest and picked up the items on the table.
"Dad, do you think I look good in this outfit?" At this time, Dong Yuyi came out of the room, wearing a bright yellow short skirt, jumped in front of Dong Wei's eyes, looked at him expectantly and asked.
"Girl, are you okay, this winter, what are you doing in a skirt, go and change to a normal one, don't let your cousin laugh" Dong Wei was taken aback when he saw his daughter's dress, but it is undeniable that his daughter has indeed grown up, and the yellow short skirt looks young and beautiful, especially moving, seeing his daughter's appearance, thinking that in a few years, his daughter will talk about marriage and spend her life with another man, he felt a little sour in his heart.
"Oops, how could it be? You are really an antique, I think it's very good", Dong Yuyi turned around in place and said dissatisfiedly.
"Knock knock", at this time, there was a knock on the door, and the voice of Masaki came from outside the door: "Uncle, I'm here."
Dong Yuyi said "ah", just ran to the door, suddenly paused, and muttered: "Oh no, I forgot to comb my hair, Dad, you go open the door, I'll comb my hair", after saying three steps and two steps, he ran back to the house, and Peng closed the door with a bang.
Dong Wei looked at his daughter in a hurry with a funny look, sighed funny, and muttered: "What a crazy girl", while walking to the door and opening the door.
"Xiao Zheng, you are here, my uncle-in-law misses you very much", Dong Wei welcomed Zhengji into the house with a smile, and when he saw the box that Zhengji was carrying, his brows tightened, and he said: "You said you, your uncle-in-law asked you to come to dinner, what do you bring?"
"Uncle, I miss you too, these things are not worth much, but I bought some snacks for my cousin and some sustenires from our hometown," Masaki said with a smile as he put the things in his hand aside.
"Okay, bring it, bring it, sit down, and tell your uncle how you're doing these days," Dong Wei smiled and took Zhengji's things aside, and pulled him to sit on the sofa.
"Uncle, everything is okay with your work lately", Masaki sat on the sofa with a smile and looked at his uncle-in-law and asked, after a few days, he found that the wrinkles on his uncle's forehead seemed to be deeper.
"The work is very good, you probably don't know, my uncle-in-law has recently been promoted, transferred from the Cultural Bureau to ***, and now he is also a department-level cadre", Dong Wei said to Zhengji quite proudly.
“***?” Zhengji was stunned when he heard it, he didn't hear that his uncle-in-law would work in *** in his previous life, in his memory, his uncle-in-law has been working in the Cultural Bureau, and the peak of his career is only the deputy director, but now he has been transferred to ***, what is going on, could it be that history has changed? But I didn't do anything related to my uncle, could it be that this is the legendary butterfly effect? Unknowingly affecting the people around you?
"That's right, ***, the leading unit of the Cultural Bureau", Dong Wei thought that he didn't understand the political discipline, so he repeated it again.
"Oh, congratulations to your uncle, that uncle, you will work in the department directly under the central government in the future, and your future is immeasurable", Zhengji reacted and said with a smile.
"Alas, it's actually not good, it turned out that when I was in the Cultural Bureau, although the official position was not as high as it is now, but the work was not very busy, and now I am going to ***, you know, the Chinese New Year will be in a few days, it is the busiest time in terms of culture, and my uncle-in-law feels that he has lost several pounds when he is tired these days," Dong Wei said with a wry smile, there must be gains and losses, this is probably the so-called Sai Weng lost his horse and knew whether he was blessed.
"Uncle, you also have to pay attention to your body, work in a certain degree, don't get tired," Zhengji said with concern, he did find that his uncle-in-law didn't seem to have lost weight for a few days.
"It's okay, my uncle-in-law is still young now, if you work hard for a few more years, your third aunt and Yu Yi's life will be more secure in the future," Dong Wei smiled and waved his hand and said, although he is now a department-level cadre, but in Yanjing, a place where cadres are everywhere and there are many department-level cadres, his official position is really nothing.
"Uncle, it's hard to buy a healthy family, the money is endless, the family is together and harmonious, and the most important thing is to be happy, besides, with your uncle's ability, it is more than enough to live in Yanjing, which is equivalent to Yi finding a good partner, uncle, isn't your little life more satisfying, I don't know how many people with higher official positions than you envy your current life," Zhengji said with a smile, and then paused and said: "Besides, don't you still have me?" Uncle, you are also my relatives, if you have any difficulties, I will naturally not stand idly by", he does think so, and he is qualified to say so, even if the funds he holds in his hand now are enough for his uncle's family to live a rich life without worrying, not to mention that there is such a golden rooster as Tencent that lays eggs is thriving, and the political discipline does not dare to guarantee that his relatives have no problem living without worry.
"Huh? I can't see that you are not very old, and what you said makes sense, but with your words, my uncle-in-law is very happy, our political discipline has also grown up, and it is even more promising, needless to say, in the future, even now, in the eyes of your uncle, you are already much better than your uncle, not to mention anything else, Xiaozheng, the money you have for a performance now is probably beyond the reach of your uncle, and they will have to rely on you to take care of Yu Yi in the future", Dong Wei smiled, his heart was sweeter than eating honey, his nephew was born, and he did not forget his family.
"That's natural, uncle, with me for a day, Yu Yi won't be wronged," Masaki said with a smile.
"Cousin, you're here", at this moment, Dong Yuyi's voice came from the door of the room, she blushed and looked at Zhengji, pinching the corner of her clothes with one hand, and her shy appearance almost made Dong Wei and Zhengji unable to recognize that this was the rebellious little witch some time ago.
"Well, Yu Yi, I haven't seen you for a few days, it's become more beautiful, where did you buy this dress, it's very good", Masaki looked at his cousin with a smile and said.
"Really? Cousin, do I look good in this dress? Dong Yuyi heard Zhengji's praise, her eyes bent into a crescent moon, and she looked at Zhengji with the corner of her skirt, at this time her clothes were no longer the yellow short skirt she used to be, probably because she herself felt a little different, so she changed into a knee-length light blue dress.
"Well, really, it's a good fit for you," Masaki said with a smile.
"Yu Yi, what are you still doing, quickly bring out some melons and fruits for your cousin," Dong Wei said.
"Well, okay", to his surprise, his daughter didn't talk back for the first time, ran to the kitchen with a happy face, and ran back with the melons and fruits snacks on the plate, not at all dissatisfied, so that Dong Wei almost thought that he was dazzled, when did his daughter become so obedient to herself.
