86. Talking about marriage?
"Lin Zi, you tell you the truth, where are you now?" On the phone, Lin Zi's father, Lin Shouye, spoke to her seriously.
Lin Zi has always been a very obedient child since he was a child, his academic performance is also very good, and his personality is also very independent.
Lin Zi's father, Lin Shouye, runs a time-honored shop specializing in pastries in Tianjin's Nanshi Food Street, and her mother, Liu Hui, quit her job at a state-owned enterprise early to help her husband.
Because of the exquisite materials and unique tastes of the dim sum they make, and the Lin family and his wife are very popular, business has always been very prosperous. As for income, in addition to ensuring that the family has no worries about food and clothing, through decades of conscientious struggle, the Lin family has also had nearly one million savings.
Because his parents are busy with work on weekdays, Lin Zi is studying at school, and when they meet on weekends, the family is very happy, like today, his father speaks to himself so seriously, Lin Zi has not experienced it for a long time.
"Dad, I attended the summer camp, it just ended, and now I'm going back to Tianjin by car." Lin Zi, Luo Kang, Chen Zhiyu and Zhuge Yun are driving on the highway, the car is borrowed by Chen Zhiyu from the monk Zhiyuan, this cross-century Jinbei nine-seater, responsible for the transportation of the temple's vegetable supply on weekdays, except for the horn does not sound, everything else sounds, Lin Zi can only speak as loudly as possible.
"Lin Zi, you never lie, Dad just called the school, there is no summer camp at all, did you encounter something? Isn't it Luo Kang's kid ......" Lin Shouye restrained his anxious and angry emotions, and tried to speak to Lin Zi in as peaceful a tone as possible, in his opinion, things were already very obvious, his daughter and a teenager ran away from home, there was only one reason - they were in love.
In fact, after Lin Zi went to college, Lin Shouye and his wife no longer interfered too much with their daughter, and if the other party was a good boy, they would not object to their daughter falling in love with him.
And Luo Kang happened to be hovering on the edge of the bottom line in their hearts, but now, he has abducted his daughter to other places for so many days, and Luo Kang's future father-in-law and mother-in-law's psychological position is in jeopardy.
"No, Dad, it's not right for me to lie, but it's not what you think, we're just playful, and we're afraid that you won't agree to play so far away, so we made up a reason for summer camp. But don't worry, I'm fine, Luo Kang and the other two boys have been taking care of me, we are on the highway now, and we will be home tomorrow. Lin Zi explained to her father.
Lin Shouye said: "Pay attention to safety on the road, let them not drive too fast, don't drive tired, what is waiting for you to go home!" ”
"Okay Dad, tell Mom, I love you! Boom! Lin Zi hung up the phone after speaking.
At this time, Luo Kang next to Lin Zi was already wet with sweat. On the one hand, the reason is that the air conditioning of the car is not good refrigeration, and more is caused by tension.
He saw Lin Zi hang up the phone, and hurriedly asked, "How is it?" What did aunt and uncle say? ”
"My dad didn't say anything, but he doesn't seem to have something to tell me, so let's leave it alone and talk about it when we get home!" Lin Zi said to Luo Kang.
In the front row of the car, Chen Zhiyu, who was driving, said to Zhuge Yun, who was sitting in the co-pilot: "Brother Zhuge , how does it feel to be by a beauty like Drought Fish?" ”
"I know you've been by her, why are you asking me?" Zhuge Yun replied.
At this time, Zhuge Yun's mobile phone rang, and it was Xiao Xie, Zhuge Yun's colleague in An Xinyuan Real Estate and Peace Store, who called.
"Great, thank you for your hard work, we will split the commission of this order fifty-fifty, and then let the homeowner invite you to a big meal!" On the phone, Zhuge Yun said this to Xiao Xie.
"Big brother, you earn all my money! How much is the commission? I still have a lot of debts now, the Rolls-Royce Phantom has been scrapped, and I don't know how to explain it to Zheng Jigong! Luo Kang said aggrievedly.
"Your 38 million arrived in the account 4 days ago, because we were in the underworld, she couldn't contact us, so she took your power of attorney to complete the transfer, and now the owner of 162 Racecourse Road is already you, and the rest is small money, not worth mentioning!" Zhuge Yun said with a hippie smile.
"I thought I had enough money, 38 million, 20 million to buy a house, 1 million in transfer fees, deed tax, and brokerage fees, 9 million for a Phantom, and 8 million left. The compensation for demolition is 12 million, and the decoration is about 20 million. Come on, half a billion, not a dime left! Luo Kang crossed his fingers and counted the income and expenditure.
Lin Zi comforted him and said: "Aren't we living well now, this money should never be there, and we will earn it together in the future!" ”
Looking at Lin Zi's look full of expectations for the future, Luo Kang's heart was full of sweetness and happiness, he gently took Lin Zi, hugged her in his arms and said: "No problem, your husband and I have no other skills, fortunately, the skill of repairing cars is not bad, I will support you in the future!" ”
"Who's your wife! I haven't given a gift, I haven't had a romantic date, I haven't had a seaside vacation, I don't have an engagement ring, and I want to marry Miss Ben in the door?" Lin Zi pushed Luo Kang away and pretended to be angry.
"Yes, yes, yes! What you said, let's do it as soon as we go back to Tianjin! Luo Kang, a stupid boy, didn't seem to see Lin Zi's little tricks.
Lin Zi saw that he was serious, and hurriedly said: "I'm not a material girl, after I go back, I still want to go to graduate school, find a good job after graduation, and it may not be certain who will raise whom in the future!" ”
Lin Zi said, and the four of them laughed.
Time flies between talking and laughing, and before they know it, they have driven to the Ziyang Tunnel section.
"The front is where my parents had an accident, Zhuge Yun, after a while, go out of the tunnel, find a place to park the car, I want to pay homage to my parents." Luo Kang said to Zhuge Yun, who was driving.
Driving out of the Ziyang Tunnel, Zhuge Yun stopped on one of the shoulders of the highway, and the four of them crossed the road (dangerous behavior, please do not imitate) when there was no car passing by, and came to the shoulder of the opposite side of the road.
Luo Kang leaned over and looked down, only to see that under the road, the cliff was dangerous, and there was no bottom in sight, if he fell from here, it was really impossible to survive.
"Look at this guardrail, it's much higher than the usual highway!" Chen Zhiyu said casually.
Luo Kang noticed that this section of the road was carved out of the cliff, in order to protect the safety of driving, all the guardrails have been heightened, not only that, but the base pillars of the guardrails should be thicker than normal, and the density of the arrangement should be larger.
"The death of my parents is definitely not an accident!" Luo Kang said to Lin Zi.
"But I heard that it was my uncle and aunt's car that had a brake failure and broke the guardrail before it fell, isn't that so?" Lin Zi asked Luo Kang.
"The results of the investigation of the Ten Palaces are also like this, but my parents were driving an island car at the time, and the body was already light, even if they hit the guardrail at a speed of one hundred and twenty miles, they would not break such a guardrail. The only explanation is that their car and the guardrail here are passive. Luo Kang said angrily.
Lin Zi also fell into deep thought at the moment and did not speak.
At this time, Chen Zhiyu walked over and handed Luo Kang three lit cigarettes.
Luo Kang's original anger calmed down at once, he took the cigarette, and said to Chen Zhiyu: "That's not necessary, King Ping said, my parents have been reincarnated, and now they are two-year-old babies, I really hope their parents will love them well!" ”
Lin Zi walked over, took Luo Kang's hand and said, "Uncle and aunt are so kind, they will definitely meet good people!" ”
Luo Kang nodded, gave the cigarette to Chen Zhiyu and Zhuge Yun, and the three men swallowed the clouds and spit out the fog.
"Luo Kang, after returning to Tianjin, go and wash your cigarette-stained teeth!" Lin Zi's sudden request caught Luo Kang off guard, although this is not a big deal, and it is easy to do, but what makes Luo Kang feel nostalgic is that Lin Zi dislikes his appearance.
"I know you shouldn't ask for this, but my parents don't like boys who smoke, so ......," Lin Zi explained embarrassedly.
"Okay, I promise you, I'll quit smoking in the future!" Luo Kang swore an oath, but Chen Zhiyu and Zhuge Yun looked at him with frightened eyes.
"What's that look on your face? What are the benefits of smoking, a cigarette reduces life by five minutes! Think about it, every time you smoke a cigarette, the yin cha will have to change the book of life and death, and one day they will be annoyed, and it may not be necessary to directly return your yang life to zero! ”
After listening to Lin Zi's intimidation, the three of them threw away the cigarettes in their hands together.
The four of them were about to cross the road and return to the car, a white Chery QQ came at a gallop, the driver saw someone on the side of the road, hurriedly slowed down and pulled over, and reluctantly parked the car in the shoulder of the road.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I saw someone on the side of the road, I wanted to ask for directions, but I stopped a little harder, I didn't touch you! ”
The man who got out of the car looked to be in his twenties, more than 1.8 meters tall, weighed 200 pounds, and his burly body was very different from the car he drove.
He continued: "I came from Xi'an, my phone is out of battery, I can't see the navigation, do I want to go to Hanwang Town, is it from the intersection in front of me to get off the expressway?" ”
Luo Kang saw someone approaching them, and hurriedly put on his sunglasses to avoid scaring people with his golden pupils.
Zhuge Yun said: "We're fine, but we're not locals and we're not familiar with the route, so let's open the navigation and show you!" ”
After that, Zhuge Yun took out his mobile phone and showed the route to Hanwang Town. Although this road is only less than 20 kilometers, it has to pass through the high-speed interchange bridge, and after getting off the highway, there is a very complex overpass, during which the one-way road, the time-limited passage section is interspersed, illegal videotaping, and the speed limit is countless.
The man was momentarily dumbfounded when he looked at the map, and he said, "I can't remember such a complicated route!" It seems that it can't catch up with the night temple fair in Hanwang Town. ”
Luo Kang thought for a while and said: "Since it's going to get dark soon, let's just get off the highway here, didn't this big brother say that there is a temple fair in Hanwang Town, let's also go and join in the fun, and show the way for the eldest brother by the way, what do you think?" ”
Lin Zi, Chen Zhiyu, and Zhuge Yun also agreed with Luo Kang's arrangement.
"Then you wait here, let's drive to the highway intersection in front of us and make a U-turn, oh yes! Haven't asked what to call your eldest brother yet?" Luo Kang asked the man.
The man said: "Thank you so much, I am the intern editor of the magazine "Sanqin Humanities", and my name is Bai Zhenting. ”
