Chapter 143, Scalpers and Dogs!
Chapter 143, Scalpers and Dogs!
Lu Chaoge came down from upstairs, and the maid had already prepared breakfast in the dining room.
Jiang Zhuliu sat at the dining table reading the newspaper, and when he saw Lu Chaoge coming downstairs, he closed the newspaper and said, "I'm still thinking about who will be the first to go downstairs to have breakfast with me." One person has no appetite for the food on this table. β
Lu Chaoge pulled away the chair opposite Jiang Zhuliu and sat down, and asked, "What about uncle and aunt?" β
"My dad is going to be at home today to entertain his old friends, so he doesn't have to go to work and probably sleeps longer. My mother went to play several rounds of mahjong with Mrs. Li and Mrs. Wang last night, and when she came back, it was already early in the morning, and it was estimated that she would not be able to get up for a while. Jiang Zhuliu lifted the chopsticks in front of him and said, "Don't wait." Let's eat first. β
Lu Chaoge nodded, picked up the knife and fork and began to cut the fried egg on the plate.
"Have you been busy at work lately?" Jiang Zhuliu asked out loud as he stuffed fresh broccoli into his mouth.
"It's fine." Lu Chaoge said expressionlessly.
"Is the relationship between the schools sorted out? If it's difficult, I'll go to Zheng Tiancheng for a cup of coffee, I think he still has to give me this little face. Jiang Zhuliu said with a smile, his smile was gentle and full of confidence.
It may be a chasm that is difficult for many people to cross, but it is just a simple problem that a person like them can solve with a phone call and a cup of coffee.
"No, you don't." Lu Chaoge bluntly refused.
Jiang Zhuliu smiled and said: "Actually, I also thought about buying Suzaku Middle School directly, at least becoming the largest shareholder of Suzaku - I want you to be the principal, so that your ability can be fully developed." Being dragged by a bunch of waste old antiques all day long, doing everything is a waste of your precious time. β
Lu Chaoge looked up at Jiang Zhuliu in surprise and said, "You didn't have such an idea before. β
"Because I know you." Jiang Zhuliu said. He added a packet of milk and half a packet of sugar to the coffee cup, and gently stirred it with a spoon. "I know that if I make such a request, you will definitely refuse."
"So, why do you think I'm going to say yes now?" Lu Chaoge asked rhetorically. "Because you think I'm running out of things?"
"Yes, I want you to say yes." Jiang Zhuliu said with a smile. "Isn't that a better time-saver? Only by being the de facto owner of that school can you plan and design it exactly as you envisioned. Otherwise, how long will you spend time in which quagmire? A year? Two years? Maybe three or five years from now? β
"I'm not in a hurry." Lu Chaoge said. As long as she was given a little more time, she believed that she would be able to fully establish herself in Suzaku. Now more and more people are moving closer to him, and she just lacks some 'experience' and convincing results.
"But someone is in a hurry." Jiang Zhuliu smiled helplessly. "You only come back every two days, and you can't understand my pain. My mom called me every day urging me to come home, and as soon as she got home, she asked me when I was going to get marriedβand I didn't want to put any pressure on you. I don't want to push you too hard. But you know, this menopausal woman is really difficult to measure with common sense. So, shouldn't we put this matter on the agenda? β
"Schedule? What's the schedule? Lu Chaoge's tone became cold. The appearance of rejecting people thousands of miles away.
"Wedding schedule." Jiang Zhuliu said with a smile. "And, of course, the schedule of having a baby. Or, there are many other schedules. β
"I didn't think about it." Lu Chaoge said. "If you and your aunt are in a hurry, you might as well go and see if other women are willing - of course, I know that there are many women who are willing to marry into the Jiang family and become the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family."
"You don't want to?" Jiang Zhuliu stared at Lu Chaoge with burning eyes and asked.
"I haven't thought about it." Lu Chaoge said. I picked an egg with a fork and fed it to my mouth, chewing it tastelessly. It's really irritable, and you can encounter such a depressing forced marriage incident after eating breakfast.
What does their Jiang family want to do?
"For what?"
"Didn't do anything about it."
"I first saw you when I was three, you moved into my house when I was six, and we spent twenty years togetherβhow did my parents treat you during all the years you were in my house? How do I treat you? β
"So, you want me to repay with marriage?" Lu Chaoge fought back and said......
"Return?" The muscles on Jiang Zhuliu's face twitched. "You say it's a reward? Can't I find a woman in the river? Need you to repay with marriage? I like you, I fell in love with you many years ago - I want you to be with me, I want to marry you as my wife, I want me to be qualified to be the man who gives you happiness - is this a reward? β
"I don't like you." Lu Chaoge said.
"Because of Fang Yan?"
"Fang Yan?" Lu Chaoge frowned, shook his head and said, "It has nothing to do with him." β
Syllable!
Jiang Zhuliu slapped the table and roared like a wounded beast: "Lu Chaoge, don't you even dare to admit what you have done? What are you afraid of? Afraid of my revenge? Revenge on the little white face who relies on women to eat? β
"I don't know what you're talking about. Fang Yan and I are just ordinary colleagues. Lu Chao Geyun was light and light, and took small bites of the eggs he had cut into strips.
"Just a normal colleague relationship? Do you take me for an idiot? Jiang Zhuliu sneered again and again. Lu Chaoge, are you afraid that I will retaliate against him? You are really considerate of him, and you really don't trust my character. β
"I'm not afraid of your revenge." Lu Chaoge said. "You can't beat him."
ββββ
"What are you clamoring about early in the morning?" Jiang Longtan, who was wearing gray robe and pajamas, said loudly as he went downstairs. "Go to the stream, apologize to Chaoge."
"Apologize?" Jiang Zhuliu felt that he was about to be exploded by gas. "What did I do wrong? It's just a few words of truth. She and the wild man were photographed together, and she was embarrassed to lie to people that it had nothing to do with it? β
"What does it have to do with you when Chaoge makes friends?" Jiang Longtan said in a stern tone. "As long as Chaoge is not married and has not become anyone's daughter-in-law, she has the right to make friends freely. Apologize. β
Clang!
Jiang Zhuliu threw away the fork in his hand, turned around and walked outside.
"Bastard." Jiang Longtan pointed at Jiang Zhuliu's back and scolded.
When Jiang Zhuliu's car drove away, Jiang Longtan walked to Lu Chaoge's side and sat down, comforting and said, "Chaoge, don't take it to heart." He has no bad intentions, and his feelings for you, we as parents, are very clear. For so many years, I haven't had a girlfriend seriously. What is the reason for it, he doesn't say it, and we know it. β
"The people outside praised him as a flower city four shows. Show what? It's just four young people with good family backgrounds getting together to get around. He's still young, he's experienced too little, and it's understandable that he loses control when he feels that things are out of his control or that things he cares about are going away from him - no matter what, we're still a family after all. β
"Uncle, I understand. I'm not angry. Lu Chaoge said in a calm voice.
Jiang Longtan carefully looked at Lu Chaoge's expression, and after making sure that she was really not angry, he said with a smile: "It's good that you are not angry." Your parents entrusted you to me, and I was afraid of what grievances you suffered in this family - if there is anything you tell me directly, don't hold it in your heart. My son can do without, but Chaoge will always be my favorite daughter. β
"Thank you." Lu Chaoge's expression was moved, and his voice trembled and said, "Uncle Xie Lu." β
Jiang Longtan patted Lu Chaoge's shoulder and said, "I'll go up and wash my face first." You have to eat more, don't learn from other girls to lose weight. I've lost weight lately. β
"I will." Lu Chaoge said.
Jiang Longtan smiled, turned around and walked upstairs.
When Jiang Longtan returned to the room, his wife Ren Jin was already standing at the window in a black gauze nightgown and smoking.
Jiang Longtan raised his eyebrows and said, "Smoke less." β
"What? The old lady smokes a cigarette at home and you can't stand it? That woman is a powerful man at home, and I haven't seen you impatient? Ren Jin looked displeased, and spoke as if with thorns, bloody pain from the stabbing people.
"How can Chaoge be powerful again?" Jiang Longtan said with a dark face. "She's a poor child, she's been very sensible since she was a child, and she's never made us worry a little more - you say she's a good fortune at home, are you sorry?"
"Sorry or not?" Ren Jin sneered. "Say a few words to her, and you run to make people apologize. It's good to chase that person, aren't you deliberately driving people out by doing this? You treat our mother and son like this, do you feel sorry in your heart? β
"Men should have given way to women. The two of them quarreled, should I go down and let Chao Ge apologize to the Drift Dao? I can't do that kind of thing. Jiang Longtan said. Also, how many times have I said that you don't get involved in the affairs of the two of them. β
Ren Jin turned around suddenly, stared at Jiang Longtan with a sneering look in his eyes, and said, "Jiang Longtan, do you know what my father said about you when he first saw you?" Cattle and dogs. The old scalper, who is diligent and wants to work hard, is a dog in his bones and wants to bite anyone when he sees it. You don't let me get involved in the two of them because you don't want the two of them to be together at all, right? β
Ren Jin pressed the cigarette butt in his hand on the windowsill and extinguished it, and said in a cold voice: "You don't want Lu Chaoge to be your daughter-in-law, you want her to be your son's stepmother, right?" β
Syllable!
Jiang Longtan slapped Ren Jin in the face.
(PS: Xie Lu's friends gave her tips and blessings to the children of Liu Xiafan, and took her to watch the cartoon at noon today, which made her very happy.) Happy holidays to my dear children! οΌ
