"Where's Pinkie? Didn't you say she came back from summer vacation? The second uncle's eldest daughter Fang Xin looked for Fang Luoping, and like her, she was also looking for Fang Luoping's eldest aunt's youngest daughter Gong Xiaoye, the three of them were the most recent and now they were all going to college in other places, and they heard that Fang Luoping was back, and they both wanted to get together with her.

Uncle's second daughter, Fang Luodan, said with a smile: "Pingping has found a boyfriend now, and she doesn't return home every day, you don't know yet." Her boyfriend is Lu Chengru, the son of Lu Mingtong, the richest man in Yuncheng, who looks like a talent and has just returned from studying abroad. ”

Gong Xiaoye sighed a few words, and laughed with Fang Xin: "I have a husband and forget my best friends and sisters, and I will never play with Sister Pingping in the future." ”

"Isn't Junlong here yet?"

The second uncle over there asked, and the uncle snorted coldly: "If he doesn't come, forget it, let's serve the food and eat first, the eldest is not a small person, he has hands and feet, no matter what he does." ”

The second uncle didn't say anything, and the eldest aunt went outside to call the waiter to serve the food.

In fact, the dishes have already been ordered, and the kitchen has also made a part, just waiting for someone to bring it up. Soon, plates of exquisite dishes were served.

The eldest uncle took out two bottles of Moutai from under the table, and the third uncle Fang Junqing hurriedly helped pour the wine, and the status of the family was probably about the same as the eldest uncle and Lin Changqing, followed by the second uncle and the eldest aunt. The third uncle is sandwiched between two older brothers and one sister, as well as two younger sisters and the youngest brother, and his position is very awkward, so he usually comes to this kind of thing.

Fang Junxiong personally poured a small cup for his father Lin Changqing, and his father didn't take a posture, after all, he was in the fifth according to his seniority. However, he still said in an official tone: "On the eldest brother's birthday, we will toast the eldest brother." However, the city has recently cracked down on drunk driving, just take a drink, don't commit crimes against the wind, it is easy to get into accidents. ”

Fang Junqing said with a smile: "I heard that the director of the Municipal Bureau of Statistics will retire soon, and the position of the second brother-in-law is afraid to be moved." At the age of 37, he became the director of the department, and the future is limitless, so you must be careful. If you move again in the future, you will have to call Director Lin. ”

Although the Bureau of Statistics has little real power in various units, it does not have much oil and water. But if you really want to get stuck with people, you still have some means in your hands.

A few years ago, the Bureau of Statistics asked for information and was asked for help from all over the place, and its status was quite low. Later, the state strictly ordered all departments to cooperate with the work of the statistical bureau, and the power was slightly increased. It has the power to punish the falsification, delay, or failure to submit information of public institutions. If you offend the Bureau of Statistics, if you have incomplete information, you can hit it back and redo it, and you can get stuck in various government institutions quite uncomfortable. At present, the data of the statistical bureau is directly related to the performance of various departments and local leaders, and the data of each yamen must be handed over to the statistical bureau for statistics and reported to the higher-level leaders, so the fate of the top leaders of each yamen lies to a large extent in the figures of the statistical bureau.

Therefore, it seems that the external statistical bureau does not have any real power, but among the various yamen of public institutions, it can also be regarded as a medium meaning, and all parties must be careful to curry favor with one or two.

Lin Changqing is good at dancing with long sleeves and takes care of the statistics bureau up and down. Therefore, the relationship between the leaders of other departments of the municipal government is also okay, and it is not difficult to entrust someone to do something. Like the last time Fang Junqing's bus was detained by the traffic police, it was Lin Changqing who helped make a phone call and dredge up the relationship.

The elders touched a glass of wine, and after drinking, Fang Junxiong looked at his little brother-in-law Gong Zhiguo, and said with a very ugly face: "Zhiguo, last time you went to Fen City to do some sunshine project, I asked Junqing to take a look at it, and I knew that it was a pyramid scheme." At that time, Junqing persuaded you to come back, but you still didn't listen to the persuasion, thinking that it was an opportunity to make a fortune, but now you know that it is a deception. I have a bad temper, last time I scolded you fiercely, in fact, I just want you to know that you are wrong, know that there is no chance of pie in the sky, and find a job in the future, raise a pair of children well, let them study out, have a chance, and change their fate. ”

"You Gong Zhiguo and Fang Xiaolan don't have any skills, so don't let your children learn from the two of you. In the future, Xiaojie and Fangfang will be able to study, have the knowledge to become officials and do business, and they will have power and money in their hands, so that your family can be harmonious and become better. Don't be like a few of our brothers, we don't know a single word in Douda, how much loss have we suffered outside? How much money has been paid outside? Do you think Junhu and I have had a good time all these years? Big mistake, things in the business field, not only have to be determined and hardworking, but also have brains, a few years ago, you didn't know about me and Junqing, you didn't know, you were deceived like fools, and you had to help them count down the money. ”

The uncle took a sip of wine, and the old temper came up again, and he grabbed the little brother-in-law and began to teach him a lesson. You can say that he is straight, or you can say that he is a paternal. But you can't say that he is bad, at least he is really for the good of these younger brothers and sisters, otherwise, he is too lazy to teach these lessons.

However, the uncle's words were very harsh, and the younger brother-in-law smiled awkwardly, lowering his head and not knowing what he was thinking. Lin Changqing hurriedly made a round: "Big brother, how can there be smooth sailing in life, Zhiguo is just unlucky, a trough." We are relatives, but we can't fall into the ground, we still have to help. ”

Hearing Lin Changqing's words, the uncle was a little unhappy, and said to him: "Where did I fall into the well, the foil is the foil, but the lesson still has to be recorded." To put it mildly, my father and mother are almost 70 years old now, how many years can they be happy? Eldest brother is like a father, I am 13 years older than Xiaolan and 12 years older than Zhiguo, and I have eaten more salt than they have ever eaten. Can what I say be wrong? There's nothing wrong with being down-to-earth, and there's nothing wrong with educating your children well. Fang Luoyang was wild when he was a child, and when he grew up, he didn't have much ability, and he knew the incarnation of a loser all day long. But Fang Luodan and Fang Luoping have always been my pride, what do you want at my age? Nature is the future of our children. What is Xiaolan and Zhiguo's family like now? Some time ago, there was a divorce, and I and my second child came here. People in their 30s, with children and daughters, can't they work honestly and live a good life? If you have to make trouble, everyone is upset. Changqing, it's not me talking about you, your own education is not much better. ”

"Big brother, I don't like to hear what you say." Fang Lan's temper is also inherited from her grandmother, and her personality exploded at a moment, and she was dissatisfied: "Lao Lin works in the unit and has time to take care of the children, I am in charge." I manage my son obediently, I make up classes outside every day, and my academic performance is rising, which is enough to earn my face. ”

The uncle lit a cigarette, glanced at her and said, "I heard from the third girl in my family that your son was dating a little girl outside, taking the money given by his parents, and eating steak in a Western restaurant." The grades are not very good, but there are a bunch of flowers, don't just say something useless, what about the grades? Zhiguo's situation is not good now, I said two words to him, hoping that he would put his mind on the child and stop tossing those useless things. Gong Jie won the third place in the city in the mock joint examination last month, and it is a sure thing to enter the four famous schools. But what about Lin Ming? You have to pull the relationship when you enter the fourth middle school, how many points do you get in the final exam? ”

The old mother stood up after a moment's rubbing, ran to the table over there, pinched Lin Ming's ear, and said viciously: "The little rabbit cub is fat? I have taught you again and again that you don't have early love, don't have early love, and now you go to a Western restaurant with other girls to eat steak, where does the money come from? ”

Lin Ming was blinded by this vise's painful ear face, and shouted: "It hurts, it hurts, it hurts." While struggling desperately, it took a while to escape from my mother's clutches.

"Mom, what's the situation? You have wronged me again? Lin Ming rubbed his ears, what he hated most was his mother's temperament of listening to the wind and rain, and she didn't even confirm it, she took what others said seriously, and then immediately ran over and beat herself. In junior high school, there was no less such beating, once my mother's friend Mrs. He said casually on the mahjong table, passing by Xiangchun Street at noon today, I saw a person who looked like your son entered the game hall. After saying this, he immediately ignited his mother's temper, and when she went back to take the hanger, she beat people. I haven't learned a lesson from this oolong a few times, the key is to act like nothing after knowing the truth after fighting, and it is Lin Ming himself who suffers.

"What wronged you." Fang Lan scolded: "What your uncle said can be a lie? Can I wronged you, your sister and your uncle will wronged you? Your third cousin saw you and the girl eating steak in a western restaurant, your mother has never eaten steak when she is so old, why don't you invite your mother to eat steak when you have the money, and invite the girls outside? ”

Lin Ming said helplessly: "I'll buy you a Western restaurant tomorrow, you can eat every day, that girl is my classmate, she invited me to go, and asked me to help her tutor her composition." This is a purely literary discussion, without any other feelings, if you don't believe it, I call people over and you ask? ”

"Lin Ming, you're bragging again." Fang Zirui next to him glanced at him with disdain and said, "How good are your grades, so you can help others tutor their essays?" Last month, the monthly exam was only more than 500 points, or 9 subjects combined, if only 6 exams, it would be good to be able to get 400. I couldn't get into college, and I bought a western restaurant for my second aunt, and it will be a problem to work in the future. ”

Although the No. 2 Middle School of the city is not as good as the three famous schools, it also produces seven or eight capital water trees every year, ranking fourth in the middle schools of Hunan Province, and is the best school among several provincial key middle schools, and is expected to chase two momentum. Over the years, they have also been determined to turn the three famous schools in Yuncheng into the four famous schools, so the students of the second middle school in the city are full of a sense of superiority, even among the students of the three famous schools, they also feel that everyone's grade is on the same level. Not to mention looking at ordinary city-level schools like No. 4 Middle School and No. 8 Middle School, there is no difference from looking at the broken schools in the township. Fang Zirui is fat and ugly, but his grades are not bad, and he is expected to be admitted to the key one, which is very superior in front of Lin Ming.

The third uncle, Fang Junqing, scolded his son loudly: "How do you talk to your younger brother, shut up if you can't speak." On the surface, he scolded him harshly, but in fact, even fools could see that the smile in Fang Junqing's eyes that couldn't be hidden still seemed to mean something.

At least for the time being, in the entire family, only Gong Xiaoye is on the top of the family, and Fang Zirui is the most promising person besides her.

Fang Lan was a little embarrassed, she actually wanted to write songs with her son, and she said that she had invested millions of shares to raise her face. But in that era, everything was inferior, only reading was high, and star singers were all actors in the eyes of this group of post-50.60s, and they couldn't be on the stage. If you say it, you will be reprimanded, so I put up with it and didn't say it.

Lin Ming smiled and said, "If your grades are worse, you can make up for it." No matter how good your grades are, if you can't get anything in the college entrance examination, it's all nonsense. Only when you get a good score in the college entrance examination, everything is easy to say. I feel that I have made a lot of progress in this final exam, and I should have no problem getting in the top 30 of my class. There are still two months of summer tuition left, and I want to participate in the preparatory class of No. 1 Middle School to see if I can get into No. 1 Middle School. Learning knowledge is like a sponge soaking in the sea, and there are still two years left in the future. I tried to do well in the college entrance examination, and the capital Mizuki may not be able to count on it, and I am still somewhat sure of the heavy capital. Next year, my cousin will take the college entrance examination, and I hope you will perform. ”

Fang Zirui's results in the second middle school also hovered between 10-20, which was very unstable. Next year's college entrance examination Waterloo, I didn't get to the heavy book, and I only took an ordinary university, which is regrettable. Although he doesn't speak well, Lin Ming still hopes that he can maintain his level, and being admitted to the heavy book can be regarded as winning glory for his third uncle.

Fang Lan was afraid that the two brothers would quarrel, so she patted his head and said, "It's still a good idea, and you can run the train with your mouth full." Your cousin is so good, you have half his level, I'm thankful for taking the second book. ”

Fang Zirui smiled, Lin Ming was silent, and honestly ate with vegetables on the table.
