Xiao Zhan didn't live in the old man's courtyard, he lived in the cadre dormitory building in the ministry.

Minister Xiao is a filial son, and he should accompany his father to live in the courtyard, especially after the old lady passed away, the old man was alone, and the children should be accompanied by him.

But Xiao Zhan also has difficulties.

That is, he takes his work extremely seriously, and there is almost no concept of commuting, let alone holidays. Many times, he would discuss work with the comrades in the ministry at home, and often worked until 11 or 2 o'clock in the evening. If you live with the old man, it will inevitably disturb the old man's recuperation.

Zuihou still gave instructions from the old man himself, so that he could continue to live in the cadre dormitory building in the ministry and not have to move to the courtyard to live.

It's a good thing to be conscientious and responsible for his work, and the old man doesn't want to affect his son's work because of himself.

Xiao Zhan lives in a four-bedroom and two-hall dormitory for senior cadres, with a usable area of about 160 square meters.

Xiao Fan wants to cultivate, but Xiao Tian is unwilling to live with his parents, for fear of being scolded.

The big house always seems empty.

This is probably one of the reasons why Xiao Zhan likes to discuss work with comrades in the ministry at home.

Lively.

However, today, Room 601 of Unit 1 of the Minister's Building is rarely quiet.

No guests came to the door.

Xiao Zhan sat on the sofa in the living room, with a cup of tea, turned on the quyi channel of the TV, listened to Peking Opera, reached out and slapped his knees, closed the beat, and hummed the tune gently, quite comfortable.

Jian Xiuhua said with a smile: "Old Xiao, why are you so happy today?" ”

Jian Xiuhua and Xiao Zhan were in the same year. Another wealthy family was born, and the two lived in the same courtyard when they were young. It's a childhood sweetheart. Later, they went to school together and went to the countryside together. Naturally, it came together.

Since Xiao Zhan took the main leadership position, most of the time he frowned, and it is really rare to have a happy moment like today, Jian Xiuhua was really happy when he saw it.

Xiao Zhan said with a smile: "That policy was passed, and a big stone fell to the ground in my heart, so I was naturally relaxed." ”

"Really? Lu Hong finally figured it out, don't you wring it with you? ”

Jian Xiuhua listened. Even more happy. During this time, because of that policy, Xiao Zhan and Lu Hong broke up unhappily in the two negotiations, and they held a sulk in their hearts, unable to dissipate.

"This matter should have been dominated by us, and he was just mischievous."

Xiao Zhan snorted lightly and said.

Jian Xiuhua put down the magazine in her hand, lowered her voice and said, "Hey." How did I hear that two days ago, Lu Hong went to Ouchi to see Comrade XX and went out to look foreign? Sweating profusely, the answer is not what is asked. ”

Although Lu Hong tried his best to hide the news. But there is no impermeable wall in the world, and it finally leaked out. He can control his secretary and driver, and he can also trust Hua Jieyu and Gao Yuzhen not to spread everywhere. But he can't control the staff of the chief's office.

Lu Hong is a high-ranking and powerful person, and he is the first person of the second generation of the old Lu family. Such news always spreads very quickly.

Xiao Zhan glared at his lover. A little displeased, he said: "Grapevine, leave him alone." ”

In fact, Xiao Zhan also knows about this situation, and his information channels are not blocked at all. As the standard-bearer of the "Xiao family", it is not possible to designate if he is not well-informed.

But Xiao Zhan is a gentleman and is unwilling to talk about right and wrong behind his back.

Jian Xiuhua originally knew the rule of her husband, but the relationship between Xiao Lu's two families was extraordinary, so she mentioned this matter in front of Xiao Zhan, and seeing that Xiao Zhan was unwilling to talk about it, she didn't say more.

As long as Xiao Zhan can continue to maintain this good mood, Jian Xiuhua will be satisfied.

It's just that the house is too quiet.

Jian Xiuhua is not a person who likes to be lively, but for so many years, there have always been people coming and going at home, and she has become accustomed to it. Suddenly it was quiet, but it was a little uncomfortable.

"I call the kids and tell them to come home for dinner."

Jian Xiuhua muttered, but didn't move, and glanced at Xiao Zhan. Jian Xiuhua knew that the two sons who were not angry were Xiao Zhan's counterscales. But as a mother, how can there be a reason not to want a son?

No matter how unhappy Xiao Zhan is, Jian Xiuhua has to mention it too.

Xiao Zhan snorted lightly again and did not speak.

Jian Xiuhua didn't care about him, took out her mobile phone, got up and walked towards the balcony. As soon as he took two steps, the mobile phone rang, and Jian Xiuhua saw that it was Xiao Tian's number, so she hurriedly pressed the answer button and lowered her voice to say "Hey".

"Mom, how are you at home? Open the door, open the door, at the door. ”

Xiao Tian said with a grin.

Obviously, if the doorbell is not ringed, he wants to call his mother, which is also a valuable experience that Xiao Tian has learned after several "painful lessons". Before you go home, call your mother and find out the news. If Daddy is in a good mood, then go home, it's a big deal to be preached. If Minister Xiao is in a bad mood and can't say anything, Section Chief Xiao will have no choice but not to go home.

That's no joke.

But this time, Xiao Tian didn't ask his father if he was in a good mood or if he had a smile on his face, and directly asked his mother to open the door, and it seemed that Minister Xiao would be in a good mood.

Jian Xiuhua hurriedly went over and opened the door.

"Mom."

The first one to appear in her eyes was not Xiao Tian, but Xiao Fan.

"Xiaofan, are you back too?"

Jian Xiuhua was really overjoyed. Xiao Fan appeared at home much less often than Xiao Tian.

"Mom, look at what you said, our brother is going to be unhappy, okay? Today, he called me home and said he would promise ...... What's ......?"

After half a sentence, Xiao Tian seemed to realize something, and immediately stood up.

But it turned out that Xiao Fan told him that when he went home today, his father would not scold him. But this guarantee that Xiao Tian really just listened to it and didn't trust it very much. Daddy's temper, Xiao Tian knows it well.

Jian Xiuhua was full of joy, where did she care about the meaning of Xiao Tian's words, reached out to hold Xiao Fan's hand, and looked up and down.

Xiao Tian hasn't been home for more than half a year, and he hasn't even shown up during the Spring Festival, and Jian Xiuhua doesn't know what happened. The worry in my heart, I couldn't sleep all night.

At first glance, he saw his son standing in front of him with all his beards and feathers. Jian Xiuhua's tears couldn't help but flow.

"Mom, I'm sorry. Something unexpected did happen on this trip, but it didn't matter, it was all in the past. ”

Seeing his mother crying, Xiao Tian was full of apologies in his heart, and hurriedly explained in a low voice.

"Mom, don't worry, there's no need for that. You don't know my brother, he is so old and powerful, no one can let him suffer. Rest assured, rest assured. Absolutely no worries! ”

Xiao Tian gaged flamboyantly on the side.

But these words come from the heart. In the past, Xiao Tian only knew that his eldest brother's medical skills were powerful, and after seeing the great power of "punching Wang Sanshao and drinking down Ye Haowen", he was desperately respectful to his eldest brother.

"Just knowing that Flim Tongue is such an adult, he won't grow a little further."

Jian Xiuhua immediately wiped her tears, glared at her youngest son, and said angrily.

Xiao Tian stuck out his tongue.

"Come into the house...... Hey. Xiaofan, have you changed your costume? ”

Only then did Jian Xiuhua notice that Xiao Fan's dress had changed, and he was no longer the same cotton and linen Tang costume. Instead of wearing a snow-white long-sleeved T-shirt with blue patterns, and a pair of light brown slacks. White casual shoes with a Breguet watch on his wrist. The whole style has completely changed, and the body is long. Personable, a good son.

"yes, change your outfit and be refreshed."

Xiao Fan said with a smile.

Since you are going to go through the catastrophe of the red dust and prepare to enter the WTO to be a "gentleman", this outfit really needs to be changed. Tang cloth shoes, with a group of Yanei sons, always seem nondescript.

The so-called "hidden in the city", the important thing is not to be in the limelight, not to be unconventional, and to be the best way to be talented.

"Hey, this line is well changed, good-looking, really good-looking."

Jian Xiuhua smiled and nodded.

Every time Xiao Fan dangled in front of Xiao Zhan in a Tang costume, Xiao Zhan's eyes always shone with a look of deep hatred. How did the smartest eldest grandson of the old Xiao family become a "Taoist priest"?

In addition to affecting Xiao Zhan's mood, Jian Xiuhua was also very unhappy. It's not that she doesn't think Tang costumes are good-looking, the key is that Xiao Fan is not too old, twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old boys, not to mention marriage, he can't even see the shadow of an object, Jian Xiuhua is really anxious.

Although Taoist doctrine does not prohibit believers from marrying and having children, if Xiao Fan himself does not want to marry, it will be a big trouble.

Now that Xiao Fan has changed his former "monk" outfit and is pretty, Jian Xiuhua is indescribably happy. If this continues, I can consider introducing my son to a good girl who is the right person.

What's wrong with the Religious Affairs Bureau?

The big brand of the old Xiao family is not fake.

What's more, the lintel of the Jian family is not low, and there is a red family with a head and a face on the ground of the Jingshi.

Those first-class and first-class wealthy ladies who are in the prestige of the old Xiao family may not be so easy to find, but it is not difficult to find a girl from a middle family as a daughter-in-law.

Just changing the costume can cause a series of "chain reactions" in the mother's mind, Rao is Xiao Fan is clever and calculating, and he is really a little incomprehensible.

The thoughts of this lesbian are probably the most difficult to calculate on shijie.

"Mom, are you thinking about marrying a daughter-in-law for our brother?"

Xiao Tian joked on the side, but the afterglow of his eyes still did not forget to glance at Xiao Zhan who was sitting on the couch. In fact, every time he went home, Second Brother Xiao was terrified, and he had to give himself more courage.

Fortunately, Minister Xiao's face was not too ugly, and it seemed that he was really in a good mood as the eldest brother said.

Xiao Tian sighed secretly.

"Xiaotian, you know the flim tongue. Your brother can't find a daughter-in-law? You yourself are not too young, and you should talk to someone seriously and solve your personal problems as soon as possible. Start a family, start a family, how to start a business? ”

Jian Xiuhua taught her youngest son a few words.

"Yes, yes, start a family, start a family, start a business......"

Xiao Tian nodded again and again, and anyone could see that he was dealing with his mother.

Second Brother Xiao doesn't want to fix the object now, he hasn't played enough. (To be continued......)
