Chapter 360 The Hu Family
Just as the two turned around and were about to go to the flower stand to rest for a while, there was a "squeak" behind them, and they subconsciously turned around and found the door...... I opened it myself.
Rewind the clock to half an hour ago......
In front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor of the small building, a middle-aged man wearing a straight black tunic put down the curtain and turned around and walked to a vermilion table of eight immortals in the room, there were five men and women sitting around the table of eight immortals, of different ages, the youngest of them was a woman in black casual clothes, about eighteen or nineteen years old, at this time she saw the serious expression of the middle-aged man and couldn't help but look behind the table of eight immortals.
"It's so dangerous outside, I think it's better to let them in, right?"
"No, what if they let them in, and they have bad intentions?! It's too dangerous! You're still too kind, we don't know them! You saw that they attracted a lot of bugs just now......" Hearing the girl's words, a young man with half-long hair and a white suit who sat to her side said immediately, his eyes always fixed on the girl as if he was thinking about your safety.
"Then I shouldn't have let you in, did you? After all, we don't know each other...... That's what you mean, right?Li Qiancheng?" the girl smiled when she heard this, this smile was bright and moving, and it made the young man's heart beat faster, but what she said made his face a little unnatural.
"How can we be the same as childhood sweethearts~"
"Who is your childhood sweetheart~ And please call me by my big name Woody! Niuniu is not what you can call! We don't know each other at all!"
"Niu Niu! How can a girl talk like that?" A brightly dressed and plump middle-aged woman next to the girl glared at the girl when she heard this, "Our Hu family and the Li family are world friends, you are of the same age, what's the problem with saying a childhood sweetheart?" After speaking, he patted the young man's hand and said with a smile, "Don't care about the future, Niuniu, this child has been spoiled by us since he was a child...... I'll apologize to you for this kid, I hope you don't mind~"
The girl smiled when she heard this (pampered? You've never spoiled me!)
The young man nodded lightly, "It's okay aunt~ It's all my fault, I haven't come to see you for too long, so Niuniu and I are separated......"
"I also think that the future of this kid is right~ Those insects outside don't know when they will leave, and now we can't pass on the news for the time being, so we can only wait for Director Zhang and them to come, and we don't know their details, so it's better to be careful now~" Another man with gold wire glasses and a suit and leather shoes sitting on the table of the Eight Immortals said thoughtfully.
The room of people seemed to be calm as if they didn't feel the turmoil outside, as if they were sure that they would not be in any danger.
When the girl saw this scene, she felt goosebumps all over her body, and quickly turned her head to be out of sight and out of mind, and finally got up directly and left the Eight Immortals Table and walked towards the back.
Behind the table of the Eight Immortals was a vermilion wooden chair and a small coffee table, and an old man was sitting on the Taishi chair at this time.
Seeing the girl walking towards the old man, a trace of gloom flashed in the eyes of the middle-aged woman (the little girl is relying on the old thing to be fearless, how many days can the old man live? When he dies, I'll see what you do!)
The old man's hair was gray and gray, all of them were combed neatly, although the skin wrinkles on his face were raised, but there were no bags under the eyes of ordinary old people, and he was wearing a very ordinary gray dress that had been washed and was already a little whitish, and he was stepping on mille-feuille shoes.
At this time, the old man was drinking tea with a small teapot in his mouth, and his eyes were closed, which was very peaceful, giving people a sense of straightforwardness and calmness.
The girl walked directly behind the old man, reached out to put down the teapot on the side of the old man's mouth, and then pinched the old man's shoulder, the latter suddenly showed a comfortable smile under the girl's service, "It's still Niu Niu who knows how to love me, this old thing~" Hearing the old man's words, the girl showed a sincere smile.
She has never been accustomed to these people's so-called big people, and the so-called family elders have long been distorted in her opinion, except for a very few people.
The girl grew up in a red family, her grandfather was a guard for a certain leader of the central government during the war years, and after the founding of the People's Republic of China, he held an important position and later retired, so he refused the placement given to him by the state and returned to this small county town, his hometown.
Although officialdom has always had a saying that "people go to tea and cool up", but it also depends on people, although the old man's family has left the capital, but in the end the relationship is still there, and there are many people in the family who hold important positions in the army and politics, so the family's situation has always been smooth. It is precisely because their family has such resources and connections that those bureau chiefs, secretaries, and so on run here all day long, and Director Zhang in the mouth of the gold-rimmed glasses is naturally no exception.
The girl vaguely remembered that this Director Zhang seemed to be the director of the Public Security Bureau, right? This is also what they rely on to remain calm and unhurried.
It stands to reason that a girl born in such a family should live a very comfortable life, but in fact, when the girl was young, her parents left the family for some reason, leaving her alone to grow up in this big family, and for her, no one in this family is a relative except for her grandfather.
Among them, especially the so-called aunt, that is, the middle-aged woman who had just spoken, had nothing but resentment, anger and resentment towards her girl.
Since she was a child, the impression she left on herself has always seemed to be only cynicism, and she is always targeted at care, and even pampered? But recently, she has begun to claim to be an elder and has begun to "care" about herself, and as for what she thinks, a blind person can see it...... Thinking of this, the girl glanced at the young man named Li Qiancheng with some disgust......
"The person who comes is a guest, since people are at home, how can there be a reason to refuse the door~ Xiao Li~ Open the door and invite them in......" The old man said in a flat but unquestionable tone.
"I know Hu Lao!" replied the middle-aged man in a tunic suit. He is the Xiao Li in the old man's mouth, although he is middle-aged, but he feels natural for the old man to call him Xiao Li, first, he is sent by the state to protect the old man, the old man is equivalent to his leader, and secondly, the old man's age is naturally qualified to call him that.
When he walked down the stairs, he reached out and took out a pistol from his waist, and then opened the insurance, as a person sent by the state, he can naturally be equipped with a gun, he is the old man's bodyguard or guard, although he has to listen to the old man's orders, but the protection of the old man is the highest priority, although he has always looked down on those people upstairs, but he agrees with this in his heart.
"Da Da Da~" Just as he was holding the gun and walking to the second floor, there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind him, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he turned around and saw the person who came, "Niu Niu, why did you come down?"
"You...... Okay~ I'll open the door later!" Looking at the girl, "Uncle Li" smiled dotingly, and then the smile converged, and changed to the previous serious face.
"Understood, sir, let's go!" Woody finished speaking, and glanced at Uncle Li, both of them were happy......
"Squeak-"
Zhou Guan subconsciously turned his head, but saw the door open in response, and a beautiful girl came out from inside, "Wait~ After knocking on the door, it will take time for the master to open the door~"
In a trance, Zhou Guan actually heard a trace of ...... "coquettish" from which tone......?
