Chapter 347: Going to Beijing Again
At noon the next day, Zhao Chuanguang personally drove to the county seat, went directly to the martial arts/equipment/department to find Zhao Dashan, and asked him to go to Zhang Guoqing's house together.
Faced with a secondment notice, Zhao Dashan rolled his eyes at Zhao Chuanguang several times, causing him to choke on several sips while he was drinking.
Seeing that he was coughing and about to burst into tears, Zhao Dashan was relieved. At the wine table, he kept complaining that Zhao Chuanguang was making a big fuss. There is no need to be so troublesome, he can just transfer Zhang Guoqing to go to other places to do business.
Zhou Jiao smiled at Zhang Guoqing. Look! I've been worried about not being able to go to the capital last night, are you stupid?
After eating, sending them away, Zhou Jiao immediately packed up her things. This time there was no one guarding the door, and she must have emptied all the valuable things in the house.
When it came to the agreed departure time, Zhang Guoqing went back to the village alone to say goodbye to his parents.
This time, except for Zhang's father who knew the inside story, everyone thought that Zhang Guoqing was transferred to the market to sell coolies. As for Zhou Jiao, she didn't worry about her godfather and godmother, so she took her home to live in person.
After a long and bumpy journey, three days later, on May Day, I finally arrived at the terminal.
Zhou Jiao looked at her father on the platform with tears in her eyes. It's not easy, I finally met her father. This time, there is no soft sleeper, and the treatment is much worse. The sleeper next to her made her just want to take a shower and sleep now.
Zhou Xiaozheng touched Zhou Jiao's head with a smile, reached out to pick up his grandson who called 'go', and looked at the daughter in front of him again with anxiety.
found that she has not lost weight in the past few months, and her spirit is better than last time. He rarely praised Zhang Guoqing, the son-in-law.
Compared with the last time the cold winter came over, this time the group was not in a hurry, accompanied by Zhou Xiaozheng's new secretary, guards, drivers and others, everyone walked out while chatting.
In the car in front, Zhou Xiaozheng and their old friends were happy. After chatting about each other's recent situation, talking about a few brothers who hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, and after a while, they began to plan a reunion of old friends.
In the back car, Zhou Jiao pulled her godmother Huang Huimin and pointed to the building outside the car window and began to introduce. This time, Zhao Chuanguang came over for a meeting, and Huang Huimin came for sightseeing. I have been taken care of too much by them in the Northeast, and I have a rare opportunity to show filial piety. She also plans to take her godmother to go shopping at the moment.
Soon, after the car drove into the compound, it slowed down. Li Qianjin and others, who got the news in advance, had already shouted loudly for Zhang Guoqing to come down.
Zhou Xiaozheng motioned to the driver to stop the car, "Your aunt and grandmother and their family are waiting for you, remember to go home early." Go out and meet them again in the evening. ”
After Zhang Guoqing nodded and got out of the car, the driver started the car again and went home.
Zhao Chuanguang turned his head to look at the young men who were making a mess outside the car, and said with a smile: "Xiao Wu, this kid has a good face." Before he arrived, these people were waiting for him to return. ”
"It's still less, wait for more in the evening. Years ago, he was at home and never even closed the door. Zhou Xiaozheng shook his head with a smile in his eyes and said.
Now you still don't get much news, and tomorrow it is estimated that you will not even be able to sit in the living room. It's been a lot better, and he's finally cleared up. Before, he exercised every morning, and many old men asked him when his daughter and his family would come back, let alone the children in the compound.
After getting out of the car, Zhou Jiao heard Zhao Chuanguang laughing and glanced at the courtyard of the Lin family not far away. What she is most curious about now is what kind of face Lin Xuelin will see her godfather.
I heard that Uncle Wang of the Northwest did not meet Lin Ai's family in the capital, and they fled back to the northwest by missing it, but she sighed.
Zhou Jiao looked at her father sadly. I really don't have the spirit of gossip, and I don't write to her to tell her how the Lin family is doing now, and I really can't be a good friend.
Mrs. Cheng at the door and when they saw Zhou Jiao's expression when they got out of the car, they immediately laughed.
"Did your dad mess with you? Tell my aunt and grandmother. I'll help you get angry. Mrs. Cheng immediately quipped. This baby bump, her nephew is willing to do it?
Zhou Jiao found in the crowd that except for her mother, none of the Lin family members were there, raised her eyebrows and smiled: "My father loves his grandson now and ignores me." Auntie, why are you here? What about my uncle? ”
Cheng Ruzhu hurriedly pulled Huang Huimin, Lin Lishan and others on the side in, and said with a smile: "Your little uncle is on duty, ask me to bring you a message, and let you cook food for him tomorrow." Come in and tell my aunt how you have been in the Northeast these past few months. ”
Lin Lishan looked back and felt very strange, "Jiaojiao, what about Xiao Wu?" Didn't the telegram say that they came together? ”
"It's good. It's just idle mold. Mom, don't worry, your baby son-in-law is here. I just met someone at the gate and got out of the car, and I came in later. ”
After speaking, entering the living room, Zhou Jiao sighed: "It's still comfortable at home." I'm going to stay home longer this time. I miss you so much. Auntie, let's go to my room, leave it to my dad here. I've got a lot of interesting stuff for you, come with me. ”
The old lady saw that Zhou Jiao, who had always been calm and had few words, said so many words in one breath, and knew that this child was very happy. It seems that only these relatives can make their children so excited.
She immediately happily beckoned everyone to the east wing, ran to pick up the child herself, and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go see what good things you have brought." ”
Zhou Xiaozheng watched his daughter run away, so he could only pull Zhao Chuanguang and the Cheng family to sit down together, they knew each other, and they didn't need his introduction.
In the east wing, Zhou Jiao opened a large bag of duffel bags and poured out the carvings, shadow puppet stickers, and some other small crafts for them to pick by themselves. Seeing Ping'an, sitting next to the old lady, he was not afraid of life.
She glanced at her mom and quietly exited back to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, as soon as Aunt Chen saw Zhou Jiao, she immediately smiled. smiled: "Why did it take so long to go home?" There were so many people just now that I was too embarrassed to surround them. Suffering in your hometown, right? You're gone, and your dad hasn't been happy for days. Listen to Auntie, stay at home and don't go back to accompany your dad. ”
Zhou Jiao smiled and nodded. It's not that she doesn't want to stay. If you really want to stay, one day is probably to see her dad at dinner. She has to wait a little longer, when the family is stable, and she is not afraid that she will not have time to guard her father.
"Auntie, why didn't anyone come to my grandfather's house today?" Zhou Jiao looked out and said in a low voice. She was so curious about whether Lin Xuelin was married or not, but unfortunately she was embarrassed to ask.
"The Lin family......" Aunt Chen hesitated for a while, but then continued, "Boss Lin has moved." Now your grandparents have lived with three granddaughters. Your grandfather went on a business trip a few days ago and hasn't come back yet. ”
When Zhou Jiao heard this, she understood that Lin Xuelin was not married yet. Her mother's letter mentioned postponing the marriage, but she didn't explain the reason. It's so unlovely.
Seeing that Aunt Chen was reluctant to gossip, she immediately changed the topic to the dinner dishes. Before she came, she estimated that there were not many things in the warehouse at home, but this time she still brought a lot of things that were easy to store.
For a while, in the kitchen, the sound of tuk tuk chopping vegetables sounded, and with the sound of pouring dishes into the oil pot, the aroma of braised pork, the aroma of stewed chicken with mushrooms, and the aroma of seafood filled the air.
