Looking at the sparkling diamond necklace, Li Shuyuan's heart fluctuated, she had only heard of diamonds, she had never even seen them, and in a blink of an eye, she had such a beautiful diamond necklace, and her heart was extremely excited, all of this was the blessing of her son Zuo Jiang, villa, car, diamond necklace, plus a good husband and son, what else could you ask for in your life?

Li Shuyuan couldn't put it down with the diamond necklace, standing in front of the mirror and comparing it on her chest, Zuo Jiang stepped forward and said, "Mom, don't just compare it there, I'll put it on for you." As he spoke, he took the diamond necklace from Li Shuyuan's hand and carefully put it on for her. Then he leaned back and looked left and right, smiled and said, "Mom, you are so beautiful!" ”

Although it was her son who praised herself for her beauty, Li Shuyuan also felt that her face was a little hot, but her heart was beautiful, and she tapped Zuo Jiang's forehead and said angrily: "Stinky boy, what are you talking nonsense!" Then he turned to the mirror to admire the diamond necklace around his neck, and his wonderful mood suddenly rippled.

Zuo Jiang hugged Li Shuyuan from behind, pressed his lower forehead on her shoulder, and said warmly to her ear: "Mom, I'm not talking nonsense, you are indeed very beautiful!" Zuo Jiang's height is already half a head higher than Li Shuyuan's, and he needs to bow down on her shoulders, and rub his lower forehead against her shoulders while talking.

Li Shuyuan saw that her son was coquettish with her, and her heart suddenly warmed, looking at the handsome and handsome face of Zuo Jiang on her shoulder in the mirror, she was very proud in her heart. smiled and said: "Xiao Jiang, this diamond necklace costs a lot of money, Zuo Jiang smiled and said: "It doesn't cost much, as long as my mother likes it, I don't care about how much money there is, now that our family has money, two or three hundred thousand dollars is nothing to my son!" ”

"What?" Li Shuyuan was shocked when she heard this, although she was prepared, but she was a little surprised to hear that this diamond necklace needed so much money, two or three hundred thousand dollars to exchange for ** people's currency, that is, about one million, how could this diamond necklace be more expensive than this villa!

Thinking of this, Li Shuyuan asked, "Xiao Jiang, you tell your mother the truth." How much did this diamond necklace cost? ”

Zuo Jiang smiled and said, "Mom, look at your nervousness, I bought this diamond necklace for 280,000 US dollars, which is more than 1 million yuan." On the surface, it seems like a lot, but your son and my money are no problem to buy thousands of eight hundred necklaces like this, as long as you like it, Mom! ”

Although Zuo Jiang told Li Shuyuan how much money he had once, it was just a set of numbers in Li Shuyuan's mind, and there was no specific comparison, and now that this diamond necklace was compared with this villa, she deeply felt how rich her son Zuo Jiang was. sighed softly and said, "Xiao Jiang, if you are rich, don't spend it so indiscriminately, as soon as you say that the diamond necklace is so expensive, I don't dare to wear it!" ”

Zuo Jiang said: "Mom! This is what you have in mind, don't you also drive out more than 2 million Ferraris, and you don't dare to wear more than 1 million necklaces? When grandpa celebrates his 70th birthday, you will wear this necklace and enjoy it in front of them! At this time, Zuo Jiang's heart had already decided to make a high-profile appearance for his grandfather's seventieth birthday this time to combat the arrogance of those scumbags.

Of course, Li Shuyuan knew what Zuo Jiang meant by being beautiful in front of them, and she found an ordinary cadre in the railway area to marry at that time, and the eldest brother, second brother and eldest sister all looked down on Zuo Zheng very much, and basically didn't look at him when they came back for the Spring Festival every year. Just as this person doesn't exist, it's also cynical to her, but in order not to make her parents angry. Every time Li Shuyuan endured it, Zuo Jiang's words were said in response to these things.

Once the mind is aroused. Li Shuyuan kept asking why. Where did you all run away when your father was squatting in the cowshed? One by one, they jumped out and drew a clear line for themselves. They all went to the south. Only he is by his mother's side every day. If there was no leftist politics at that time. It was hard for her to imagine how she could get through those difficult years. Father was rehabilitated, and you ran back to confess to him with snot and tears. After all, they are their own children. Father has been generous enough to forgive you. You come back four or five times a year for promotion. Dad long dad short around the back. But what will happen to you when your father is gone? Seeing my father didn't do much of a difference. You don't come back once a year. How long has it been since you came back this time? It seems like five years! I don't know why you remembered your father again this time. That's not your style!

Thinking of this, Li Shuyuan patted Zuo Jiangdi's hand. Let him let go of himself. He sighed and said, "Xiao Jiang." Don't dwell on those unpleasant things. It's an adult thing. It's none of your kids' business. Mom will take care of the land! ”

Zuo Jiang understood Li Shuyuan's feelings. He smiled and didn't say anything about it again. Instead, he said, "Mom." I'll help you move your things to your room. ”

Zuo Jiang dragged the big suitcase to his parents' bedroom on the third floor and put it away. I opened the box, pointed to a few boxes that were placed aside, and said, "Mom." Those boxes contained the ground to buy suits and leather shoes for Dad. When Dad comes back, you can give it a try. Look at whether it fits or doesn't fit. ”

When Li Shuyuan heard this, she stepped forward and took out the boxes and said, "No need to try." Mom will know if it fits if it fits when she looks at it. I bought him all these clothes from your father! As he spoke, he opened a box in it.

Inside this box is a "Pierre Cardin" suit. It is now the most popular suit brand in the upper class of domestic society. Maybe in another twenty years, the name will feel very cheesy. But at this time, this brand is in the limelight in China's Landa 6!

Li Shuyuan took out the suit and compared it with her hand a few times and said, "Xiao Jiang, don't say that you are quite discerning, your father is wearing this suit just right!" I think this fabric is like pure wool, and the workmanship is also very fine, it must be a well-known brand, right? ”

Zuo Jiang said: "Yes, it's Pierre Cardin's, I bought two sets for my father, one for spring and autumn wear, one for summer wear, you take this set for spring and autumn, and that box is for summer!" ”

This time, Li Shuyuan didn't ask Zuo Jiang about the price, just looked at it the same, took out the summer suit and compared it to feel that it was just right, and took out a shoebox after the suit was good, the leather shoes were brown, and the winter leather shoes with layers were high-waisted, and the texture and workmanship knew that they were very precious, and the other box was low-waisted spring and autumn leather shoes, and after reading it, Li Shuyuan asked: "Xiaojiang." These shoes are good, what brand is it? ”

Zuo Jiang said: "This is the famous brand of Italian leather shoes, Fendi, which is very popular in the United States, and I also bought you two pairs." In the box below. ”

"Fendi?" Li Shuyuan thought about it and was not impressed, since Zuo Jiang said that it was a famous brand of Italian leather shoes, it would definitely not be bad. In fact, Zuo Jiang didn't know that Italian leather shoes had the brand Fendi, and when he remembered to buy leather shoes for his parents in the United States, he didn't know what brand to buy, and the foreign leather shoe brands he knew were limited, so he found a big shoe store to inquire, and the saleswoman saw that Zuo Jiang was an Oriental teenager. Somewhat contemptuously introduced, now the world's first brand of leather shoes is Italy's Fendi, we now have the most high-end Fendi leather shoes in our store, but the price is a little more expensive, you must be prepared. The saleswoman said that it was a little more expensive, but it was actually very expensive, a pair of high-end Fendi leather shoes cost more than 3,000 dollars, Zuo Jiang also felt the salesman's contempt, smiled and didn't say anything, and bought twelve pairs at once after choosing the number, and his parents added themselves. Two pairs per person, two pairs per person, and two pairs of her parents, shocked the saleswoman at that time!

After dinner, Zuo Jiang came to Li Shuyuan's room. I want to discuss with her what her grandfather is going to do for his seventieth birthday, Li Shuyuan was also about to talk to him about this, just now Zuo Jiang said that she was really tempted by the fact that they were also in the limelight, why did the eldest brother, second brother and eldest sister look down on themselves, is it nothing more than that they have no money and no power? In terms of official position, Zuo Zheng is the director of the Liaodong Railway Bureau. The main hall level, in terms of level, is higher than any of them, in terms of wealth, even if his son Zuo Jiang is not the richest person in China, he can count among the rich people in China, and now he is not bad at anything, why should he be coldly looked down upon by them!

Zuo Jiang said: "Mom, Dad called you just now and told you, I am going to give my grandfather the Rolex Starry Watch I brought back from the United States for my grandfather's birthday." What else do we need to prepare? ”

Li Shuyuan said: "Hmm. Your dad told me that a watch worth 300,000 yuan is a bit scary to say as a birthday gift. But it's not an exaggeration, Dad has been suffering all his life, and this time his grandson has the ability to honor him for a famous watch! However, your uncle said that the birthday banquet should be paid for by him and your second uncle, but I don't agree, how much can a birthday banquet cost? If you want to show your wealth and pretend to be generous, how good it is for him to bear it alone, why bother to pull the second child, so I decided that we will hold this birthday banquet, you wait a minute, I will call and talk to your uncle. ”

"Good!" Zuo Jiang nodded in agreement.

Li Shuyuan picked up the phone and dialed Li Zhiguo, and the place where he answered the phone was his wife Fang Shuqing, Li Shuyuan said: "It's sister-in-law, I'm Shuyuan, my eldest brother is not at home, I have something to do with him, it's about Dad's 70th birthday!" Although they haven't seen each other for more than five years, Li Shuyuan doesn't talk to her, and goes straight to the point, Fang Shuqing is undoubtedly the most snobbish person in the Li family, and Li Shuyuan doesn't want to say a word to her at all.

Fang Shuqing was so angry with her attitude that she almost dropped the phone, but when she thought of going to Tongjiang's son this time, she asked Zuo Zheng for help, and she endured it and didn't do it on the spot. Hum! Proud of what? Isn't he just a broken railway director, but is the railway director still an official? Nothing in my eyes! If it weren't for Zhengyang's request for your head, you would be the onion! Hum! A poor ghost who has never seen the world!

After all, Fang Shuqing is a section chief of the Zhongzhou Municipal Finance Bureau, although she is used to flying and domineering, there are still some city governments, she tried to calm her mood and said: "It's Shuyuan, he just arrived home to govern the country, and he is washing his face, you wait a minute, I'll call him!" She was so angry with Li Shuyuan at this time that she was about to go crazy, and she could say one more word, so she quickly put the phone aside after speaking, and sat on the sand with anger and gasped.

In fact, Li Zhiguo came back a long time ago, and after dinner, he talked about Tongjiang with his son Li Zhengyang in the secretary, Li Zhengyang said: "Dad, you see if we can go to Tongjiang this time to ask my sister-in-law if the matter can be done, now I am a little worried, if it doesn't work, I will be miserable, more than five million land contracts, if the grain can't be shipped on time, I can't afford to lose my family!" ”

Li Zhiguo glanced at his son who was a little anxious and reprimanded: "Zhengyang, what are you panicking about, how many times have you told you to be steady in trouble, and you must be steady in case of trouble, but look at you, you can't sit still when you encounter such a little thing, I know your brother-in-law very well, if we go to improve the relationship with him this time, it will always be not big, although the wagon is nervous." But for him, it's just a gesture. Alas! It's all because I didn't think it through, I have been slow to slack them all these years, but who would have thought that he would climb to the position of railway director after a small stationmaster for a few years, and his level is half a level higher than mine! ”

Li Li Zhengyang looked at his father and didn't dare to say anything. In the past, he used to transport grain from the northeast to Guanli on the railway, which was opened with money, and basically it was easy to get it, and this time I thought there was no problem, but when I went to ask for the wagon, I knew that at this time, a large number of basic materials such as grain, coal, and timber were being transferred by the state. Due to the demand for land in Songjiang Province, Zuo Zheng ordered all the wagons that were not planned to enter the customs to be suspended, and fully supported the transportation of Liaoning and Songjiang provinces. Li Zhengyang couldn't get the wagon, so he was in a hurry, and the consequence of delaying the time limit of the contract was that he couldn't bear it, and he spent money everywhere to ask for a relationship with the wagon, but he ran into walls everywhere.

At this time, he remembered his brother-in-law Zuo Zheng, and asked someone to inquire, it turned out that Zuo Zheng was already the director of the Liaodong Railway Bureau, and he thought that after finding Zuo Zheng, the problem of the wagon would be solved. But after going to the director of the Liaodong Railway Bureau several times, he didn't even see Zuo Zheng in person, either to Beijing for a meeting, or to go to the grassroots level to inspect the work. So he found Song Dayou, the deputy director in charge of transportation, under the banner of Zuo Zheng. When Song Dayou heard that he was Zuo Zheng's own nephew, he was already moved, thinking that he would approve a few wagons to him, but when he heard him say that he wanted to ask for 50 wagons, he was embarrassed. It's not that he can't approve it at all, the key is that he has to talk to Zuo Zheng about this matter, and verify Li Zhengyang's identity again, so he found an excuse to beat him away first, and told him to come back in two days to listen to the letter.

After Li Zhengyang left, Song Dayou called Zuo Zheng and told him about this, if Li Zhengyang asked for three or five wagons, Zuo Zheng would approve it to him for the sake of his relatives' face, and if the relationship between the two families was good, it would not be a problem to grant fifty cars. Thinking of their attitude towards themselves over the years, Zuo Zheng panicked in his heart. His wife Li Shuyuan suffered from their anger and went home to him, and Zuo Zheng saw Li Zhengyang's arrogant appearance in the empty eyes during the Spring Festival five years ago. When his wife Li Shuyuan returned home, she was so aggrieved that she secretly shed tears. So he made his attitude clear to Song Dayou.

When Zuo Zheng and Zuo Jiang called him, he didn't mention that Li Zhengyang had looked for him, but only mentioned that Li Zhiguo had said about it, and he was afraid that the relationship between the two families would have an impact on Zuo Jiang, so when Zuo Jiang called Li Zhiguo's name, he didn't say anything later.

Although Song Dayou didn't know the contradictions between them, he would be easy to do with Zuo Zheng's attitude, and when Li Zhengyang came again, he told Li Zhengyang that the wagons for the state to transfer materials were very tight, and if he wanted three or five cars, he could give him a license, but if he wanted fifty cars, even if Director Zuo was there, it would not work. Three or five wagons are undoubtedly a drop in the bucket for Li Zhengyang, and they can't solve any problems at all, he also knows the relationship between his family and his aunt's family, and knows that there will be no result if he waits in Liaodong, so he hurriedly returned to Zhongzhou to discuss countermeasures with his father.

After listening to what his son Li Zhengyang said, Li Zhiguo thought for a while and said: "Zhengyang, the matter is obvious, your brother-in-law Zuo Zheng knows about this matter, it is impossible for Director Song not to report to him about such a big matter, you also know a little bit about the affairs of officialdom, if Zuo Zheng opens his mouth to approve fifty wagons, it is a matter of one sentence, and the key to the matter is stuck in the relationship between the two families, if it is I, I will not grant you land, we must quickly repair the relationship with him!" ”

Li Zhiguo is worthy of being in politics, and immediately thought of his father Li Dalun's 70th birthday, so he had a birthday celebration, his father-in-law's 70th birthday, Zuo Zheng had to participate in it no matter what, he knew that people were afraid of meeting, and when he saw him with Zuo Zheng's character, he would definitely not be able to wipe his face and refuse.

Li Zhengyang said hatefully: "Dad, if it doesn't work, I'll give him 50,000 yuan with some blood, and the price of 1,000 yuan for a car wagon is high enough, I have inquired, he has only been the director of the bureau for only a year, and with the management system of the railway enterprise, he can't make much money this year, and he will definitely move if he smashes 50,000 yuan."

Li Zhiguo said angrily: "Don't be willing to make money, sometimes there is money and things that can't be done, we can prepare more hands, and after arriving in Tongjiang, you will act when you see my eyes, and you will do what I tell you to do!" ”

Fang Shuqing kicked the door open with a snort, and said loudly at Li Zhiguo angrily: "Your good sister's phone, go and answer it!"

This made Li Zhiguo and Li Zhengyang both ruined, Li Zhiguo's face sank and said: "What are you crazy, what a good sister is not a good sister, you make it clear!" ”

Li Zhiguo and Fang Shuqing immediately lost her temper, and she explained in a low voice: "What other good sister can there be, it is the invincible Li Shuyuan, hum, the villain has the ambition, and he didn't take my sister-in-law in his eyes at all!" ”

Li Zhiguo glared at Fang Shuqing and thought, when have you ever put her in your eyes, if it weren't for you, a loser, you wouldn't have today's incident, thinking of this, he snorted and said, "Woman's opinion!" After that, he walked into the living room to answer the phone.

Li Zhiguo picked up the phone and said, "Little sister, I haven't seen you for several years, how are you doing now?" ”

Li Shuyuan said: "Big brother, thanks to you, I have had a good life over the years. Speaking of which, Li Shuyuan didn't want to have more quarrels with Li Zhiguo, and went straight to the point: "Big brother, I came to you today about our father's 70th birthday banquet, I think so, you come all the way, it is very inconvenient to organize the birthday banquet, this birthday banquet will be handled by me, it just so happens that Uncle Xiao Zhu is the mayor of Tongjiang, and it is very convenient for me to organize it here." ”

Li Zhiguo said: "Little sister, this matter is still up to me, after all, I am my father's eldest son, and I should bear it, I don't want to do it this time, just let us set up two or three tables as a family, and when I arrive in Tongjiang, Zhang Luo is in a hurry." ”

Li Shuyuan couldn't help but feel angry when she heard this, and she paid for you and the second child? It's a big show, two or three tables of banquets can be used for a few dollars! So he said: "Big brother, this is Dad's 70th birthday, after all, Dad was a dignified vice governor before he left, two or three tables are not too shabby, I think so, if we want to do it, we will do it, invite relatives and friends to have a lively time, the most important thing is to invite Dad's old comrades-in-arms and old subordinates to make Dad's happy, some of them have not seen each other for many years, take the opportunity of this birthday to let them get together, after all, they are all seventy years old, and if they live one day less, it is not very easy for them to meet, Dad doesn't say, Let us be sons and daughters and do this for him. ”

Li Zhiguo originally wanted to refuse, but as soon as he heard that Li Shuyuan was going to invite his father's old comrades-in-arms and old subordinates, his father's secretary Zhu Jianguo is now the mayor, and those people are a huge fortune.

Thinking of this, Li Zhiguo said: "Good, good! Little sister, you are right, it is the eldest brother who did not think about it, just do what you say, it is inconvenient for me to do it in the past, you will handle it first, but the money for the birthday banquet is still paid by me and your second brother, little sister, you just need to make some efforts, hehe! ”

Li Shuyuan said: "Then there is no need, I can still afford the money for the birthday banquet!" After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone, Li Zhiguo listened to the blind voice on the phone in a daze, and his heart was extremely uncomfortable!
