Chapter 157: Didn't Scare You, Did You?
"Mingluo, it's hard for you to pick up your sister-in-law and them, by the way, remember to think more about what I told you yesterday, maybe the relationship between our two brothers is a little rusty, no one knew who existed before, but one thing can't be changed, we are relatives, since I am older than you, I have the responsibility to support this family, and I have the responsibility to take care of you, remember to tell me when you figure it out, I will arrange it for you."
It's another morning, there is no fog in Helan County today, the visibility is very high, and the faint morning light is sprinkled from the east, although there is not much warmth, but the people who shine the same are in a good mood.
Outside the door of the county government axe family courtyard, Zhou Guanglei, who was smiling, did not have the slightest sense of majesty, and completely hugged Zhou Mingluo's shoulder like a big brother next door and whispered.
However, after saying this, Zhou Mingluo shook his head with a smile, "I'll think about it again." ”
Shaking his head, he glanced back, his parents were still asleep in the family yard, yesterday morning's acquaintance was too unexpected, a brother popped out of thin air, even if he had been with this brother for a day, Zhou Mingluo still didn't show much intimacy.
This is also inevitable, he didn't know the existence of this brother before, how could he be intimate as soon as they met?
Yesterday, the county magistrate Zhou in front of him asked for leave, and has been accompanying Zhou's father, Zhou's mother and Zhou Mingluo, and his words are nothing more than what he has encountered over the years, he and this brother may be unfamiliar with each other, but it is different from the parents, they are extremely excited and happy to suddenly find their son who has been separated for more than 20 years, especially what surprises the second elder is that the eldest son in front of him is undoubtedly a great future, and it is actually their parents in Helan County.
For a whole day, the parents were smiling from ear to ear, and after the father removed the gauze on his head and the plaster on his right hand, he was a healthy old man again, and he directly accompanied the two brothers to get drunk, and even the mother, who had never drunk alcohol, drank a few more glasses excitedly.
As for the son of Deputy Director Song of the Transportation Bureau, yesterday morning Zhou Guanglei directly called the county public security director to him, and said very plainly that his father was directly beaten in the county town and was in shock, and he was almost beaten to death.
Just kidding, the county magistrate's father was almost beaten to death in the county seat, how can he be embarrassed as the director of the public security bureau?
I heard that Deputy Director Song was directly frightened by the news and collapsed on the ground.
There is no need for Zhou Mingluo to ask about these things, and because of this, he was only a guest yesterday, happy with his parents, and he didn't mention much about his experience during this time.
Now what his parents are most concerned about is what happened to Zhou Guanglei over the years, and he also knows that they must have a lot to say when they suddenly meet after being separated for so many years, and there is no need for him to show off the scenery outside to distract his parents.
So now, whether it is his parents or Zhou Guanglei in front of him, they still think that he is just an ordinary second-class dealer in Xinchuan.
That's when Zhou Guanglei opened his mouth and said that if he wanted him to come back, he might have the intention of helping his younger brother, his brother is a dignified county magistrate, and he wants to fight in Helan County is definitely more than a hundred times stronger than being an ordinary second-tier dealer outside, but the fact is that if Zhou Mingluo really listens to this, coming back will basically be tantamount to doing a disservice, and he doesn't know how to say it if he wants to explain.
The simplest point is that he wants to collect antiques, and if he wants to feed foodies like the little brown bear, he has to collect them in batches, where can he collect them in a small county like Helan County, where does he not even have a place to sell antiques? The real second-class dealer naturally doesn't mind walking the streets and alleys to drill into remote places, but he can't raise dragon seeds.
However, Zhou Guanglei is always kind, and he can only refuse tactfully. Besides, he really doesn't care about the help that a county magistrate at the department level can give him now.
"You still can't let go, hehe, then think about it for a few more days, call your sister-in-law first when you get to the provincial capital, and take her and your nephew back to show your parents." Hearing his words, Zhou Guanglei shook his head and sighed, of course he could feel Zhou Mingluo's unfamiliarity with him, even if he wasn't the same?
He has a very deep memory of his parents, but he has no impression of the younger brother in front of him.
But even if the relationship is a little rusty, he still wants to pull Zhou Ming down, this is not to say that he is a corrupt person, as soon as they meet, he wants to give his younger brother the green light to go through the back door, but the reunion with his family is too exciting, and it also makes him doubly cherish this hard-won family affection, he just decided to try to give this only brother some opportunities without violating the general principles.
However, he finally made up his mind, who knew that Zhou Mingluo didn't appreciate it, but it made him cry and laugh a little, I don't know whether to laugh at this younger brother's simplicity, or to be glad that his relatives are still so simple.
"Okay." Zhou Mingluo nodded again, but sighed in his heart, this time he recognized his family not just one more person, but a family of three, Zhou Guanglei is 31 years old this year, and he has already married and had children.
Yesterday, I was an audience member for a day, and he also knew that his sister-in-law's side was not simple, and Zhou Guanglei was able to get to today, and he also made a certain effort.
When this brother was snatched away, he didn't escape until he was in a neighboring province, and it was he who secretly escaped while the traffickers under his care were asleep, and it was hard to imagine how a three- or four-year-old child could sneak out, and he admired it a little.
But after running out, Zhou Guanglei didn't know where he was at all, and was later taken in by a lonely old man in the local countryside, who kept him for him to study, until the old man died of illness in high school, the eldest brother became unaccompanied again, fortunately, he was fifteen or sixteen years old at that time, and his grades have always been the most outstanding, although it is a little harder, but he can also start to take care of himself.
Because his grades were too good and the conditions were too hard, his high school at that time exempted him from tuition and room and board, and finally he was directly sent to a famous university in China.
The sister-in-law I met on the university campus has been in politics step by step since graduation.
Hearing all this yesterday, Zhou's father and Zhou's mother couldn't help crying, crying and laughing, Zhou Mingluo was also embarrassed and emotional, he had suffered a lot of setbacks before, but compared with this big brother, it seems to be a lot worse.
Although the sister-in-law has some energy, he has contributed a certain amount of strength to Zhou Guanglei's political career, but he is not a real famous family, his father is a deputy director of the Central United Provincial Department of Finance, I heard Zhou Guanglei laugh and said that he didn't agree at all when he first kidnapped his sister-in-law, and he didn't let him enter the house at first, he relied on his own ability to improve his career, and he was not yet 27 years old when he sat in the position of the leader of a county bureau, and the relationship with that side was eased.
The biggest contribution over there was when he was transferred from the deputy county magistrate of a certain county to Helan County and pushed hard from the deputy department.
However, when he was transferred to Helan County, his sister-in-law still stayed in the provincial capital, and Zhou Guanglei's six-year-old son was also in the provincial capital. When Zhou's father and mother heard that he was married and had children, they couldn't wait to see their grandson.
That's why Zhou Mingluo is ready to rush to the provincial capital to pick up people.
Zhou Guanglei originally wanted to go, but Zhou Mingluo persuaded him to stay and spend more time with his parents, and after being persuaded by his younger brother, he knew that he could drive, so Zhou Guanglei borrowed a car for Zhou Mingluo to drive.
"Then I'll go, my parents drank a little too much yesterday, you take care of them here, I'll try to pick up my sister-in-law and them as soon as possible." After nodding his head, Zhou Mingluo stepped to the front door, the car borrowed by the county magistrate Zhou is very ordinary, it is a black Shanghai Volkswagen, but it is always convenient to have a car, and it is estimated that the provincial capital can be reached in two or three hours.
Waving behind him, he started the vehicle and left smoothly.
After running along the highway for almost two and a half hours, the black public entered the provincial capital, and it was at this time that he grabbed his mobile phone and dialed, "Hey, is it sister-in-law?" ”
"You're Xiaoluo, aren't you?" I also had a phone call last night, and a familiar laugh quickly broke out across the phone.
"Well, I'm almost there, Xiao Xuan is also at home." Zhou Guanglei's son is called Zhou Xuan, a little kid who has just entered the second grade of primary school, and his sister-in-law's name is Lin Youling.
"Yes, after listening to what your eldest brother said yesterday, our family is here, except for my parents who have to go to work and can't leave easily, Xiaoxuan and Lin Hao are here, are you familiar with the road in the provincial capital? If you're not familiar, I'll let Lin Hao pick you up? There was a burst of sweet laughter on the other side again, and he also knew that Lin Hao was talking about in the other party's mouth, that it was the younger brother of the sister-in-law.
Speaking of which, if you just want the second elder to see his daughter-in-law and grandson as soon as possible, he can drive over by himself.
But the problem is that it is not appropriate not to let people pick them up, just like the bride side of a couple of couples on the day of their wedding also has hands and feet, but have you seen how many brides are not picked up by their husbands and families to drive away?
Although Zhou Guanglei and the two have been married a long time ago, now it is the first time to enter the in-laws' house, and the Zhou family cannot be too lazy.
"Okay." Zhou Mingluo nodded helplessly when he heard this, he really didn't know the provincial city.
"Mingluo, where are you now? I'm driving to you. The person on the other side of the phone was quickly changed, but the tone was far less intimate than Lin Youling, and it seemed to be a little lazy.
Zhou Ming didn't care when he fell, and began to wait when he reported his location.
Half an hour later, a black BMW drove quickly from the front, Zhou Mingluo's phone also rang in time, and when he heard that Lin Hao was sitting in the BMW, he pushed the car and stepped down the door, smiling and stepping forward to greet him.
But he never thought that as soon as the BMW door opened, a black shadow suddenly jumped down from above, and a low roar from the roar pounced on Zhou Mingluo.
The big shadow was more than half a person tall, more than a meter long, and covered with long black hair, which was very majestic and mighty, which directly scared Zhou Mingluo.
"Kuroko!" When the black shadow almost pounced on Zhou Mingluo, there was a low cry from the car, and then the black shadow whimpered and fell to the ground, staring at Zhou Mingluo with a pair of fierce eyes again.
"Ha, Mingluo, I didn't scare you, my Tibetan mastiff is a little recognized, if it scares you, don't blame my brother." It was only at this time that a slender figure stepped down from the car, with a height of more than one meter and eight meters, and a handsome face, standing there did have the capital to attract bees and butterflies, but there was a lazy smile on the young man's face at the moment, although he seemed to be apologizing to Zhou Mingluo, but in fact it was a joke.
"Rub." Zhou Ming frowned violently, and scolded secretly in his heart, didn't he scare himself? He was really taken aback just now, Nima was ready to pick up people, but suddenly jumped out of the car with a vicious dog, and no one would have to be startled.
But after frowning, he still smiled and waved his hand, "It's okay." ”
The eldest brother-in-law, doesn't seem to welcome him very much.
"Hey, it's okay." Standing lazily against the car door, a chuckle flashed at the corner of Lin Hao's mouth, and he kicked the Tibetan mastiff that was crawling in front of him, and then he looked at Zhou Mingluo playfully again, "I've always heard that Brother Lei and his uncle and aunt were separated, but I didn't expect them to be able to reunite, it's a miracle, it feels good to suddenly have an extra brother who is the county magistrate, right?" ”
Saying this, Lin Hao bit the pronunciation of his brother who is the county magistrate even harder.
He really didn't like Zhou Mingluo, originally Zhou Guanglei was unrelated and unreasonable, only their family was his relatives, Lin Hao also saw that Zhou Guanglei could do it at the age of 31 and the future of the county office was bright, so for Zhou Guanglei, who had no relatives, his brother-in-law was also a very close person.
In the future, he will undoubtedly be able to stain a lot of light, perhaps more powerful than his father who was the deputy director of the Provincial Department of Finance, after all, his father is in his fifties, and Zhou Guanglei is only thirty-one years old.
Nima who thought that he had really found his relatives over there, and Zhou Mingluo jumped out of vain, thinking with his ass that he also knew that he would definitely be taken away a lot if he could take advantage of it in the future, and it was still a big head, so it was strange that he could not be a little angry.
And this week, Mingluo flew on the branch and became a phoenix, originally a down-and-out second-way dealer, ordinary can no longer be ordinary, but in a blink of an eye, there is a brother who is a county magistrate, and he is not beautiful?
"It's fine." Zhou Mingluo couldn't hear the ridicule in these words, he just rolled his eyes helplessly, it didn't matter if he suddenly had an extra brother who was the county magistrate or not, but yesterday and today, listening to his brother's words, he still wanted to take care of himself and wanted to support this family for him, which felt really good.
"Hey." He really said that it was okay, the key was that he looked calm, Lin Hao looked a little painful, but then he stepped forward and pretended to hug Zhou Mingluo's shoulders affectionately, and said again, "We will be a family in the future, after today, I will take you out to see and learn more, but I can't lose the face of Brother Lei and our Lin family." ”
Sample, still pretending to be deep and calm? Even if the other party suddenly climbed into Zhou Guanglei's relationship, he couldn't change the fact that he was short-sighted before, he was just an ordinary second-class dealer, Lin Hao really had the intention of taking Zhou Mingluo out to see and see, and kill this guy's arrogance. Thinking about it, with his experience, the average is a few thousand yuan a month, and if he is unlucky, he may still be busy in vain and pay the car and horse fare, and he can bluff this guy who can bluff him to play anything, not to mention anything else, the sunspot under his feet is a Tibetan mastiff bought for hundreds of thousands, and hundreds of thousands to buy a dog, Lin Hao felt that if he said it, he was afraid that he would have to scare this kid down.
When Lin Hao's mind flipped, Zhou Mingluo just smiled faintly and didn't answer, perhaps, this sudden extra family relationship was not all so harmonious and happy.
