Chapter 4 Returning to China

In Shi Lei's eyes, the blue sky in Los Angeles today is extraordinarily blue, and the sunshine is extraordinarily brilliant, just like Shi Lei's mood at this time.

Everyone who was eager to return home got up early in the morning, and came to Los Angeles International Airport early after eating a full Chinese breakfast.

After a long flight of more than ten hours, we finally arrived in the capital in the evening. The people who just got off the plane were deeply aware of the difference in air quality between the two places. The sky in Los Angeles is always so blue, and the sky in the capital always makes people wonder if there is something wrong with their eyesight.

After a hurried dinner in the capital, Shi Lei and his party got on the train to Quancheng, the capital of Lu Province. In the evening, I finally met the driver of the unit who came to pick up people at the Quancheng Railway Station, and the group temporarily settled down and sat in the business car of the unit to the hotel that was booked in advance.

The next day, everyone who had finally adapted to the jet lag got into the car and embarked on the last leg of the journey home together.

In the car, the director of the bureau simply held a small meeting for everyone, asking everyone to sort out what they had seen and heard about the trip after they went home, and next week they would come to the stage one by one to make a report to the comrades of the overall situation, and tell the summary and reflection of the trip. As for today, after arriving at the unit, everyone can disband directly, go home to reunite with their families, and go to work normally tomorrow. After arriving at the unit, everyone cheered and went home.

Shi Lei's home is in Yizhou, Lu Province, a nationally renowned old revolutionary area. Although this is the old revolutionary area, now the logistics and small commodity wholesale industry are among the top three in the country, and there are many well-known large enterprises in the country, such as the headquarters of the must-have golden gong ham sausage is next to Shi Lei's hometown.

It is said that there are tens of thousands of people in Yizhou who have deposited tens of millions, and all kinds of luxury cars are lined up on the roads of Yizhou, which is not uncommon. At the same time, it is home to the largest rubber dam in Asia, a bus station and a university town. And Shi Lei also came from Yizhou University, which covers an area of more than 4 square kilometers, and studied veterinary medicine, so he was able to be admitted to the Animal Husbandry Bureau.

Shi Lei drove his own car, pulling a full of gifts to the home in the new district, with excitement finally came to his own downstairs, just stopped the car to see the parents and sister who had already been notified to stand by the car, after saying hello, they all began to help with all kinds of things and luggage, the 4-year-old niece took a few small clothes prepared for her and walked towards home.

Shi Lei doesn't have a girlfriend now, so he still lives with his parents, and his sister's family lives quite close, only four intersections apart, so the family can often get together for a meal or go out on an outing or something.

Shi Lei's father, mother and sister are all teachers, and his brother-in-law is a civil servant of the Water Conservancy Bureau, Shi Lei's parents originally planned to let him apply for the teacher's exam, but in his senior year, Shi Lei applied for the civil service examination with a try-and-see attitude, but he didn't expect that he entered the interview with a score of 18 points higher than the second place, and everyone's scores in the interview were not too close, so Shi Lei became a civil servant.

And Shi Lei's success is not purely due to luck as it seems on the surface, of course, the factor of luck is not excluded, but more because Shi Lei has loved reading since he was a child under the cultivation of his parents.

Shi Lei has read a lot of books, from childhood to adulthood, such as One Thousand and One Nights, Avanti's wisdom stories, all kinds of number games and even all kinds of famous books, celebrity biographies, all kinds of novels, etc., and even Chinese medicine theories, health theories, and all kinds of history have read a lot, in short, he has a wide range of knowledge.

This caused Shi Lei to have a sense of déjà vu when facing many questions, which made his written test score so high, and finally passed the entire exam. So, it's right to read a lot of books, and maybe use a little bit of what you see from books when you want. And reading books is still Shi Lei's biggest hobby.

Shi Lei's sister Shi Lan is a middle school English teacher, and it is with her help that Shi Lei has met a lot of international friends and watched a lot of classic English original soundtrack movies, so that she can pass the guò English major level 8 exam, and occasionally help her sister do some translation work.

And just like Shi Lan's flower language, my sister is a human beauty, a standard good wife and mother, and her mother's good cooking skills make her always able to make a lot of exquisite dishes that the elf's lovely niece Guoguo can't put down.

Brother-in-law Zhang Wei is a typical technician, as the technical backbone of the Water Conservancy Bureau, he has participated in the design, demonstration and construction of many water conservancy facilities.

And Guoguo, the biggest pistachio in the family, is unanimously recognized by everyone as having the potential to be a genius. I don't know if it's because everyone thinks that their children's paper is better than others', in the eyes of the family, Guoguo often shows more than children of the same age. At the age of 10 months, he will leave, and at the age of 2, he will sing a lot of nursery rhymes, and the various cars at home are very slippery, and the language is very clear, and then he is much stronger than children of the same age. In short, Guoguo is better than other children in the eyes of the family.

Mom and Dad are about to retire, so most of the day is spent raising flowers and plants, and Mom has to consider making more delicious food for Shi Lei.

At this age, my parents' bodies will have some minor problems, but they have been cured by Shi Lei in the name of massage using animal optimization ability, so Shi Lei is still working part-time as a health care doctor at home.

Of course, before this, Shi Lei did learn massage and even acupuncture and other physiotherapy techniques for his parents, so he was able to show that he was very professional and did not have any flaws.

Shi Lei distributed the various souvenirs he brought back to each person one by one. Guoguo saw that the few beautiful clothes she bought for her moved directly to the bedroom left for her at home, and wore them out one by one to show everyone one by one, until she received a lot of praise, and then she wore what she thought was the most beautiful new clothes and sat at the dinner table with her family.

Mom and sister have prepared a sumptuous lunch, and Shi Lei inevitably accompanied his father and brother-in-law who likes to drink a little wine to have a few drinks together. During the banquet, he naturally talked about some things he saw and heard and interesting things about going to the United States, and after eating a meal, Shi Lei hugged his stomach and shouted, "Hold it up, hold it up."

packed up their things, sent away their sister, brother-in-law and falling asleep Guoguo, and their parents and Shi Lei went back to their rooms for a lunch break. Shi Lei is because he wants to continue to suffer jet lag, and his parents have always had the habit of napping.

In the evening, after dinner, Shi Lei and his parents sat in the living room watching TV together. Shi Lei decided to sue his parents about winning the lottery in the United States this time.

"Mom and Dad, I have a great joy to tell you, you have to be mentally prepared." Shi Lei said after brewing for a long time.

"Huh? What's the happy event? Do you have a girlfriend? Are you going to bring it back to show us? Mom asked eagerly.

"Huh? No" Shi Lei has a black line, Mom, how much do you want to find a daughter-in-law for your son......

"Could it be that the woman is pregnant?" Mom asked.

"Uh......" This time, even my father looked at my mother speechlessly. It seems that I still underestimated my mother's eagerness, is this going to hug my grandson directly......

"Actually, I bought a lottery ticket in the United States and I won the jackpot." Shi Lei tried hard to pull the topic back.

"Really? How many hits? Is it $10,000? Mom asked expectantly.

"That's a thousand? Is it a hundred? That's a great event. Mom looked at Shi Lei, who had been speechless, shook her head and asked.

"Not really. I won $590 million, and I won it alone. Shi Lei simply said the answer directly.

"Huh? You don't have a fever, do you? Still haven't woken up yet? Mom made a gesture to touch Shi Lei's forehead to test the temperature.

"No, I don't. I did hit the jackpot. Believe it or not, this is the contract I signed when I went to claim the prize. Shi Lei said and took out a contract from the inner pocket of his jacket and handed it over.

"I'll take a look, you can't see it." Dad said and took the contract directly.

"Did you really hit it? How many hits? Mom looked at Dad eagerly.

"Yes, I did. The amount of prize money written on it is indeed $590 million. ”

Dad handed the contract to his mother as he spoke, but before his mother received it, his father let go, and the contract fell directly to the ground. It seems that Dad is not as calm as he appears in the face of such a big surprise.

"Ahh 590 million US dollars, how many yuan does that have to be? My mother shouted in ecstasy, and tried to calculate the amount of money converted into RMB in her heart, but she couldn't think of how much RMB it should be, so she didn't want to, it must be a lot of money anyway.

"Okay, okay, you keep quiet, I'm afraid others won't know!" Dad said as he bent down and picked up the contract on the ground and put it away. It seems that my father, who has experienced a lot of wind and waves, is much calmer.

"This matter must be kept secret, don't go outside and talk about it everywhere, let people know, and there will be more things." Dad then instructed Mom.

"By the way, who did you sue sù if you won the lottery?" Dad asked Shi Lei cautiously.

"Only lawyers and lottery officials in the United States know, but they have signed an agreement to keep it secret for me. Rest assured. Shi Lei replied seriously.

"In addition, if you win the lottery, you have to pay taxes. In the end, there weren't that many of them. Shi Lei pretended to be modest and said.

"Huh? How much tax do you have to pay? Mom asked eagerly.

Hearing his mother's question, Shi Lei had to give his family a detailed introduction to the details and advantages and disadvantages of paying taxes, trying to solve the doubts of the second elder.

"Oh, that's the case, but a lot of money will still be deducted, more than a billion yuan. Capitalism of all evils. "Mom looks like she is in pain.

"Alright. Do you have any plans for this money? Do you just keep eating these old books? Although it does look like a lot. "Dad began to worry that Shi Lei would become a guy who ate and waited for death in the future.

After all, in the eyes of orthodox parents like Dad, no matter how much money there is, Shi Lei can't just eat, drink and have fun at such a young age.
