Chapter 14: Family Gatherings (4)
Lin Ming's words made the second uncle fall into deep thought, and he began to seriously consider the matter of letting Fang Muyu become a soldier.
To tell the truth, the second uncle's career is now in full swing, before the high-speed rail is fully opened, the passenger transport business at the bus station has at least 10 years of golden development, and there is no worry about food and clothing at home. In the future, even if his son has no interest, the family property that his second uncle can leave him is very rich. Therefore, Fang Muyu is not successful, to say how important it is to the second uncle, it is definitely unrealistic. It is a good thing to be successful, but it doesn't matter if it is not successful. As long as the second uncle works hard for another ten years and buys dozens of more properties in the city, even if Fang Muyu is a little mediocre and guards the family property given to him by the second uncle and does not go out to work, even if the second uncle will be a hundred years later, he will not have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of his life just by collecting rent.
But what Lin Ming said about losing weight really touched the heart of the second uncle. Fang Muyu turned 18 years old at the beginning of this year, just became an adult, weighed almost 200 pounds, and walked with a shaky mountain, so that the second uncle had to worry about his physical health, and always urged him to lose weight and reduce fat.
It's a pity that no matter how much you supervise, you can't stand it. Fang Muyu was lazy and didn't want to work hard at all.
If you put it in the army, it will be different, the army has the discipline of the army, and there are military constraints, and then he can't help it, and if he exercises for two or three years, even if he doesn't do it, his body will be at least healthy in the future.
Thinking of this, the second uncle felt that it seemed good to send him to be a soldier, nodded and said: "What Xiao Ming said is indeed reasonable, the conscription date is October, I will go back to do Fang Muyu's work, and I will send him to the army." Even if he didn't change his stinky problem, he worked in the army for two years and lost that body of fat, which is quite good. ”
Before the 13-year restructuring, the conscription date was in winter and autumn, in October every year, so the registration date was not until October. This made Lin Ming feel very pity, because there were still 3 months until October, and there were too many variables in between, in case the second uncle was softly ground and hard by Fang Muyu and changed his mind, the fate of Fang Muyu would change in the future, I am afraid that it would have no impact, or it might go all the way to the end and become as bad as the future generations. In fact, the loser is nothing, even if he is a second ancestor with a big spend, his father's money is enough for him to spend. But attracting fans is a bit excessive, harming others and oneself, and ruining the whole family. Therefore, if the conscription is reformed in advance, the second uncle can sign up now, and Fang Muyu will not be allowed to regret it.
However, it was already very good to be able to make the second uncle figure it out, and Lin Ming didn't expect the second uncle to go home immediately and pick Fang Muyu up from the bed and send him to the army. After all, the state system cannot be changed, and if it is said that the conscription will be carried out in October, you will have to wait until October to sign up.
Everyone said a few more words, chatted for a while about business or people and things in their hometown, and the banquet was halfway through.
It was at this time.
The door of the box was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and the uncle's daughter Fang Luoping walked in, followed by an elegant and handsome man, who was Lu Chengru, the son of Lu Mingtong, the richest man in Yuncheng.
"Dad, I'm sorry. Chengru had come over a long time ago, but there was a traffic accident on the road and he was delayed for a while. ”
As soon as she came in, Fang Luoping shouted "apologize".
Everyone looked at them, but Fang Luoping didn't have the slightest apology on his face, only a smug look of joy and excitement that couldn't be hidden in his eyebrows. can find the son of the richest man in Cloud City as a boyfriend, it is like marrying into a wealthy family and catching a golden beetle son-in-law. No wonder even Uncle Fang Junxiong secretly acquiesced.
"Happy birthday uncle." Lu Chengru took out a beautiful small gift box and sent it very respectfully. In front of such a huge family, he was not stage frightened, and behaved generously and decently, which made Lin Ming secretly praise, worthy of being a hypocrite who was good at disguise and disguise.
The eldest aunt smiled and said, "Come on, bring something." She stood up and took her hand, and then helped Lu Chengru get a chair and bring Fang Luoping to her side, preparing to let them sit at the adult table.
Lu Chengru said with a smile: "Auntie, I have to accompany the customer to something at night, and after I am busy, I take Pingping to the movies and eat Western food, and it is very hard to accompany me every day these days." ”
"Okay, you go get busy."
The eldest aunt accepted the gift, and she thought it was a small gift at best. Unexpectedly, Fang Luoping pursed her mouth and showed off: "Mom, open it and take a look, this is an antique that Chengru chose in shock, and bought seventy-eight thousand." ”
"Seventy-eight thousand."
Everyone was so surprised that even the uncle couldn't sit still, and craned his neck to see what was so expensive. Don't look at the uncle's claim to have assets of tens of millions, but the liquidity in his hands is actually not much, and seventy-eight thousand things are also a very valuable gift for him.
"I can't take something so valuable." The uncle hurriedly excused himself.
Lu Chengru said: "It's just a little heart, I still have some things, so I went over with Pingping first." ”
Lu Chengru and Fang Luoping walked to the door, and Gong Xiaoye and Fang Xin hurriedly went up and said, "Brother-in-law, Wishing you prosperity, bring the red envelope." ”
Fang Luoping pushed them away and said, "Two dead girls, usually compete to be sisters, but now they are called brothers-in-law, die." ”
"Tut-tut, I forgot my girlfriend when I had a husband." The three girls laughed a few words.
Lu Chengru felt that his eyes were bright, but he didn't fall in love with Fang Xin and Gong Xiaoye, although the two of them were also beautiful, they were not as beautiful as Fang Luoping, and Lu Chengru, who had been in the flowers for a long time, didn't fall in love with them. His eyes were on Fang Luoping's sister Fang Luodan, Fang Luodan is 22 years old this year, has just graduated from college, and has a boyfriend. In terms of appearance, Fang Luoping and Fang Luoping are two golden flowers in the family, it may be that they have inherited the relationship between their aunt and aunt, and they are more beautiful than other girls in the family, and there are seven or eight points of similarity between the sisters, it may be that after the nourishment of love, Fang Luodan is full of mature and charming atmosphere, which makes Lu Chengru feel that Fang Luodan is more attractive than Fang Luoping.
This is the explanation that young women are more charming than young girls.
However, Lu Chengru covered it up very well, and even Lin Ming, who had been staring at him, only thought that he was just glancing at his eldest cousin, and didn't notice the trace of greed and desire in his eyes.
The three cousins chattered for a while, and Lu Chengru looked at his watch and didn't urge, but Fang Luoping still ended the greeting very sensibly and left with Lu Chengru.
Gong Xiaoye and Fang Xin glanced at each other and said sourly: "The sour smell of love is really smelly." ”
The arrival of Fang Luoping and Lu Chengru greatly increased the uncle's face, and his smile blossomed. With this episode in the middle, there were more topics, and everyone soon stopped talking about Fang Muyu, but instead began to talk about the future son-in-law of the uncle.
The eldest aunt told Lu Chengru's family background, education and current situation at the dinner table, judging from his resume alone, Lu Chengru is far more glamorous than his appearance. At the age of 25, he returned from studying at a world-class university in Western Europe, and with the help of his father, Lu Mingtong, he opened a financial investment company last year, and the business is doing quite well. There is a Ferrari worth more than 3 million, a value of 1.46 million, the latest Land Rover Range Rover 4.6HSEAT in 2002. At present, he lives alone in the Cuihu villa area on the west bank of the Yunhe River, does not smoke, does not gamble, has a stable job, and has a prominent family background, even in the entire Hunan Province, he is the top best son-in-law candidate.
Such a man who looks extremely good on the outside is indeed very face-saving when he is recruited to the family as a son-in-law. The aunt's mouth was almost grinning on the back of her head, and even the usually serious uncle couldn't suppress his joy and smiled.
Only Lin Ming couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.
This Lu Chengru.
Now it is becoming more and more arrogant, and fortunately, the aunt's tutor is quite strict, and it is stipulated that all the children must arrive home at 9 o'clock, otherwise if Sister Pingping is taken advantage of, Lin Ming will be even more uncomfortable.
Thinking of this, Lin Ming felt that he needed a little countermeasure.
But Lu Chengru disguised himself very well, the last time he went to talk to Su Wenqi about it, Su Wenqi, who didn't have a deep relationship with Lu Chengru, was suspicious of this matter. Not to mention the relatives who have been deceived by Lu Chengru's appearance, they go up and talk about it with empty teeth, and when it reaches the ears of their families, it immediately becomes slander and slander.
And the most important thing is that when the relatives of the family have found Ruyi Langjun for Fang Luoping, and the uncle's family has found a good son-in-law, at this time, go up to expose Lu Chengru? It's just a slap in the face of the uncle and the aunt, after all, Lu Chengru and Sister Pingping fell in love with the approval of the two of them.
So it is definitely not okay to go up and expose it recklessly. Lin Ming felt that he only needed to do one thing, that is, to let his cousin Fang Luoping know the true face of Lu Chengru, and then all the problems would be solved.
And first, he had to find a helper. This helper must be someone who can contact Fang Luoping at all times to prevent Lu Chengru from revealing his true form and doing bad things to her.
Lin Ming thought of his eldest cousin Fang Luodan.
Fang Luodan also took himself when he was a child, and among several cousins, Lin Ming had the best relationship with her, if he pulled her down to tell her the truth in private, Fang Luodan might still help him. After all, destroying Fang Luoping's feelings has no interest in Lin Ming, and no one will destroy her sister's feelings for no reason.
Do what you want, Lin Ming got up from the dining table, whispered a few words in Fang Luodan's ear, then left the box and walked to another private room in Yudong Building, where no one was there, and after a while, his cousin came in, and after making sure that no one saw it, Lin Ming locked the door.
"Xiao Ming, you said you have something important to tell me." Fang Luodan came in, saw Lin Ming so cautious, frowned and said, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Lin Ming pondered the sentence for a moment and said: "I have seen Sister Pingping's boyfriend, he is very bad, he is a playboy, there are many women outside, and many women have aborted for him. The usual trick is to trick people into bed, and then they will be dumped very quickly..... I didn't dare to say it just now, so I had to come and tell you. ”
Fang Luodan couldn't believe it: "Are you sure you didn't recognize the wrong person?" ”
Lin Ming nodded affirmatively, to be honest, he now regretted that he hadn't found someone to investigate Lu Chengru earlier, so that he would have more evidence to fully show how scumbag this person was. But I'm afraid that Sister Pingping will like it with all her heart, and she has to hang herself from a tree, and no matter how much evidence is put on it, it will be useless.
Seeing Lin Ming nodding his head in confirmation, Fang Luodan became anxious and said, "No, I have to tell my parents about this, Pingping is so simple, she will definitely be deceived." ”
Fang Luodan has experience in love, and has talked about two terms in college, so he naturally knows that if a girl is deceived, it is really too simple.
Lin Ming hurriedly grabbed her and said, "Sister, you can't go and say it." Think about it, now that my uncle and aunt are so satisfied with Sister Pingping's boyfriend, if you go up and say bad things about him at this time, no one will definitely listen to him. It will also make them think that you are jealous that your sister has found a good match, but they will not care, so don't add fuel to the fire. ”
"You're right."
Fang Luodan was not stupid, he immediately came to his senses after being impulsive, and frowned: "Then what should I do, in this way, I will ask Pingping about that person's situation after I go back, and I will find some excuses to accompany her more, let her stay away from him, and spend this period of love." ”
Lin Ming said: "I secretly went to collect evidence that Sister Pingping's boyfriend is a scumbag and expose his true colors." ”
"Okay."
Fang Luodan patted Lin Ming's shoulder and said, "Good brother, it's not in vain that I loved you so much when I was a child, now go back to dinner first, you remember my mobile phone number, and contact later." ”
Lin Ming remembered Luo Dan's phone number below, for fear that everyone would find out that he had a secret, Fang Luodan went in first, and Lin Ming went to the toilet to relieve his little hands.
