Chapter 199. Tip of the iceberg

Du Zhongkui's mother's seventieth birthday, he specially arranged for his brothers in the countryside to come forward to hold a banquet, and he secretly spread invitations directly and indirectly in Shujiang.

On this day, on the deserted Dujiagou mountain road in the past, the convoy of Shujiang to celebrate the birthday, the police car whistled to open the road, followed by motorcycles, cars, off-road vehicles, vans, buses and buses, mighty and mighty, lined up into a long queue that could not be seen at a glance, winding several mountains and several hills. Just some of the vehicles in front also crowded the surroundings of Du's house, and the vehicles behind had to be parked on the road.

The cultivator forgets his plow, and the walker forgets his walk.

Most of the guests of the Du family came here, not invited by Director Du of the Shujiang Coal Industry Bureau, and many of them did not even know anyone from the Du family. And these uninvited guests, scrambling to be the first, giving gifts one by one is more generous than the other.

The neighbors took the initiative to come to help, killing chickens and geese, lighting fires and cooking, and doing a lot of fun. A group of old classmates and old friends in Dahong, entrusted by Du Zhongkui, were naturally not idle, and Chunwang remembered the gift list, and Han Quanhe received the gift, and he was even more busy.

Du Zhongkui sat in the east wing, and the VIPs who drove Mercedes-Benz BMWs and buses came to look for him. They were all smiling, looking at him with strange eyes, handing over the cigarette, he nodded silently and smiled, took the cigarette and put it in his pocket. Then, everyone said a few words and left.

After a while, dozens of people entered the house to hand out cigarettes. Some people who watched the excitement whispered: "Hey, evil, people handed Du Zhongkui paper cigarettes, why didn't he smoke them?" What do you want to put in your pocket? "Hey, you're such a fool, the most fashionable thing to do now, roll a check into a cigarette, can that be smoked?" Are you willing to smoke? ”

Near noon, Du Zhongkui walked out of the east wing and gave cigarettes to the elders in his hometown one by one, and was greeted with praise and praise. At this time, an old woman leaned forward with a bamboo stick, and said vaguely: "Zhongkui, your baby has a great future today." ”

The old woman is the widow of an uncle in Du Zhongkui's family. After her husband died of hunger, a son and a daughter also died, so she has been widowed to this day. Because of the sadness of his life, he cried blind with a pair of good eyes. Now it's all about handouts and neighborhood handouts. In recent years, he has been seriously ill, and it seems that most of his body has been buried in the loess.

She coughed violently, couldn't breathe, staggered, and couldn't stand steadily. Some others complained in their hearts, what are you doing with this old woman, the Du family must be unhappy. They never expected that Du Zhongkui hurriedly stepped forward to support her, and said while beating her back: "Auntie, you are so sick, you should have gone to the hospital a long time ago." The old woman said intermittently, "Where did you come from in the hospital...... Money, my old bones, isn't that, a waste of money...... Just wait for the breath to break, break, and break. ”

Du Zhongkui thought about something, and resolutely announced to everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, seniors and brothers and sisters, I came back today, first, to celebrate my mother's birthday, and second, to recognize my eldest mother as my godmother." Now I just took this opportunity to admit it in front of everyone, and I took my godmother and my mother to Shujiang in the afternoon, first cured my godmother's illness, and then let her live with us until she was old-age and sent to the end. ”

Du Zhongkui knelt down and kowtowed: "Godmother." ”

Warm applause and admiration, the old woman was moved to tears.

Li Weiwei was puzzled, pushed Dahong and whispered: "Old classmate, which one is Du Zhongkui singing?" Da Hong smiled: "Naturally, it is a good show, and everyone is full of praise, and even grateful." "I always feel that something is wrong, and there will be some subtext." "Our old classmate...... Let time do the talking. Ah, Vivi, something suddenly occurred to me about you. "yes, what's the matter?" "When you came to my house that night, my brother Hongzhong was there, and he looked at you at that time...... What do you feel? "Old classmate, what do you want to say to me?" "Tell me the subtext in his eyes." "Hahaha, my old classmate, you know that my heart has long been cold and numb." "Vivi, it's time to thaw. Pity my brother, who is honest and smart, once kindly picked up an abandoned baby as a daughter, and had no choice but to feed her father and mother after a few years. Now in his fifties, he still feeds his whole family and is not hungry. Li Weiwei pondered for a moment and said, "Old classmate, can you give me some time?" "Of course, there's no urgency."

Wu Chunwang Hanquan River Hall House wrote a list to receive gifts, and the guests who came to register lined up from morning to afternoon. Han Quanhe wiped his sweat and said: "Chunwang, the great man's head has been stuffed with two big suitcases......" "Don't worry, there is a big basket next to it." ”

In the evening, the guests finally took over, and the guests left one after another. Han Quanhe Wu Chunwang called three strong men, two of them carried a big suitcase, and the other person picked up a load, and went to the back room to pay the account, Han Quanhe sighed: "Good girl, Zhongkui, this kid is terrible, how can this be more than a day of gold?" Many people can't earn it in hundreds or thousands of lifetimes. Wu Chunwang said: "Quanhe, make a fuss, this is just the tip of the iceberg." ”

Du Zhongkui and his mother godmother took a car back to Shujiang, and before they could go home, they directly sent their godmother to the best First People's Hospital in Shujiang for treatment. During my hospitalization, I visited countless people to give gifts. Later, his godmother was hospitalized and discharged from the hospital again and again, and every time people up and down had to visit and give gifts, every time the hospitalization fee was secretly transferred directly by the coal boss every time. People have a good reputation for him, so he appeared in newspapers, radio and television. But in less than half a year, his godmother died of illness, and Du Zhongkui made a big deal for her funeral, so that he was in the praise of people, and he didn't know how many days in a row.
