The Golden Age Chapter 48 Self-justification, why Lao Tzu is qualified

"Counselor Luo, Director Zhao, my surname is Chen, Chen Zhicheng, currently serving in the Action Affairs Division of the Second Department of the State Administration of Religious Affairs, is a calm brother, and he is also his leader. I also just learned about this, so I rushed over to meet the two of you, and I came a little late, and I hope you will forgive me. "As the saying goes, I don't stretch out my hand and don't hit the smiling person, I came this time, on behalf of Xu Calm's elders, so when I put down the gift, and then greeted Luo Lan's parents seriously, the two of them were able to maintain the superficial courtesy, and after shaking hands with me, they coldly asked me to sit down, and they didn't immediately take the broom to drive us away.

I just sat down, glanced at Xu calmly with his eyes, he immediately understood, stepped forward, and handed over the big bags and small packets of gifts, which included ordinary cigarettes and alcohol, as well as gifts such as clothes and scarves for everyone in the family.

Seeing Xu calmly looking like a great enemy, I couldn't help laughing, pretending to wave my hand easily: "Alas, calmly, this is Xiaolan's home, and it is also your home." Take it easy, don't act like we're here to negotiate, okay? "

Luo Lan also smiled and wanted to come over to play the round, at this time Luo Lan's mother finally couldn't help it, frowned, and said nonchalantly: "Director Chen, the visitor is a guest, I have nothing to say to Lao Luo, but I want to remind you that Luo Lan is a member of this family, but your younger brother is not--in fact, so far, I have only met your brother three times, in any way, it can't be a family, right?" "

I did not correct Luo Lan's mother's misunderstanding that I was the head of the Operations Division, in fact, as the leader of the special services team, I held the official position of deputy director of the Operations Division, and this was only promoted after the meritorious service last month. Interpersonal communication is like this, just like Luo Lan's mother is just the deputy director, and I ignore that prefix.

I said calmly: "Director Zhao, this is the case, I also just learned that Luo Lan and Calm have already received their certificates."

My description immediately angered Luo Lan's mother, who has a strong aura, as the leader of such an important department, she has her own official authority on weekdays, that is the bearing that her position brings to her, after being completely annoyed, she suddenly stood up and shouted at me: "Yes, they have received the certificate, is this the reason why you and that kid can be arrogant here?" Do you think we're going to compromise with a thief who kidnapped me and raised my daughter after 20 years of hard work? If you think so, then I want to sue you for impossible! My father and I will never agree! "

I was sprayed with spittle, depressed to death, but I still persuaded me: "Director Zhao, don't get excited, we are very sincere"

"Sincerity? What is sincerity? "

The more I persuaded me, the more Luo Lan's mother was like a tigress protecting her cubs, pointing at Xu calmly and gritting her teeth: "Your so-called sincerity means that you don't care about our feelings as parents at all, and you don't care about any of our opinions, you coaxed my daughter into a daze, let her secretly take away the household registration book, go to register her marriage, and then come back to sue us, saying Look, the raw rice is cooked and matured, right?" And you ended up bringing such a mess of stuff, and this"

She opened the three boxes on the coffee table suddenly, suddenly knocked down the three okra yellow jade pendants inside, pointed at them and said: "Take these things to show your sincerity, sue me, okay, it's true, you like to admit it or not, right?" I want to ask, what qualifications does he have to marry my daughter? "

I squinted my eyes and looked at the three jade pendants on the coffee table without speaking. The material of these three jade pendants is okra Khotanese jade, an extremely rare thing, it is estimated that it is also a collection of Maoshan Mountain, the value is rare, but this material is only a part, it is really valuable in the carving and the runes carved and refined on it, the three jade pendants are the gluttonous pattern, the dragon pattern, the tiger head, there is the world's first Fu King Li Daozi personally carved the seal, the absolute exorcism artifact, wearing the body, not only a hundred evils are not close, but also can calm the mind, longevity and longevity.

Such a good thing, thanks to Xu Danding, is a descendant of Maoshan and has a rich family collection, and he can take it out, which is enough to prove that he is full of love for Luo Lan.

Compared with Luo Lan's mother's anger, her father was much calmer, and while pulling his wife to sit down, he said earnestly: "Xiao Chen, it's not that we are pedantic as parents and interfere too much in the feelings and marital life of our children, it's just that this child is the meat that fell from his parents, if you are a parent, you should be able to understand it." The combination of two people, it depends on whether you have the ability to give each other happiness, and this happiness is not only spiritual, but also needs some basic material conditions to support, Luo Lan has been pampered since she was a child, let her go out to suffer, we naturally don't want to hey, what kind of jade is this? "

His father was a knowledgeable person, and in the middle of his words, he saw the gift box that had been opened by his wife, and saw the yellow glow, and immediately interrupted and looked down.

Xu calmly bowed down and said: "This is a Maoshan jade pendant refined by my uncle and ancestor himself, which can drive away evil spirits and avoid disasters, and prolong his life."

Seeing that her husband's white face was really unprofessional, Luo Lan's mother had another seizure: "Come and tell me about this set of feudal superstitions again, I have said it, our old Luo and I are both generations of intellectuals, don't let your set of dross deceive me; To tell you the truth, Luo Lan will definitely have a better future, and the person who will bring her happiness in the future must not be you. Let it go, don't pester my poor daughter, who is too young to understand anything."

Although Luo Lan's mother is also in a high position, but because of the secret front, the information is asymmetrical, and it is naturally impossible to know what we are doing, I smiled bitterly and waited for her to finish a lot of grumbling words, and looked at Xu calmly, who hung his head next to him and didn't speak, thinking that this guy was really a little choked with such a mother-in-law, and the resentment of being raided by him before suddenly turned into nothingness, and then said calmly: "Aunt Zhao, it seems that you don't believe in us very much?" "

Luo Lan's mother glared at me viciously, nodded heavily, and then asked, "What do you say?" "

Seeing her natural words, I Huo Ran stood up, and Xu calmly next to me thought that I was going to brush up his sleeves and leave, so he hurriedly came up to help me, and said pitifully: "Senior brother? "

I waved my hand, and then my face became stern, and the bearing that I had carefully gathered just now suddenly spread, and I paced step by step to the big window of the living room, looking at the beautiful forest garden outside the community, and the tall buildings in Kyoto beyond, I took a long breath, and then said: "All along, there has always been a group of people, who hold the sharpest sword in their hands, receive a meager reward, hide in the dark, fight against evil, and forget their lives and deaths - some of them have worked hard, and some of them have died heroically, Some are generous and lamental, others are forever in hell, and they are unknown people, but they are the backbone of the prosperity and well-being of this country and society. However, the funny thing is that they have always been misunderstood, so that finding a lover who can marry has become a luxury."

I have been a senior brother of Maoshan for so many years, and I have served in a strategic department such as the special service group for a long time, and I have my own temperament on weekdays, seeing that I said so sadly and indignantly, the cold atmosphere in the living room finally relaxed, Luo Lan's mother was still a little unable to turn around, but his father was in awe, stood up, and said, "What are you talking about?" "

I stood by the window, looking at the sunset in the distance, the warmth was infinite, and then I turned around calmly, the setting sun and the sunset set me quite a bit of artistic conception, and I said calmly: "Both of them are high-ranking officials of this country, and they are also pillars of talent, but I want to say that when I was fifteen years old, I had already fought bloody battles on the battlefield in southern Xinjiang, and countless enemies died under my hands, and I suffered countless wounds; As for calmness, he has been on the front line with me for so many years, and just two months ago, he was seriously injured in a battle to exterminate criminals and almost died! "

I didn't hesitate to speak out about the dangers of our work, and this experience shocked everyone present at the Luo Lan family, and I continued: "If you say that we have the qualifications to stand in front of you, and ask Xu Danding what qualifications he has to marry Luo Lan, then I just want to tell you that what I just said is our qualifications, and marrying Luo Lan is because two young people appreciate each other and love each other - there is nothing more qualified than this in this world!" "

I said it sonorously and forcefully, and Luo Lan's father was the first to react, walked in front of me in a few steps, and then frowned and said, "Xiao Chen, what you just said is true?" "

I said calmly, "What do you mean?" "

Luo Lan's father said excitedly: "You just said that you are not the clerk of the Qingshui Yamen in the Religious Affairs Bureau, but"

I nodded and said, "Uncle Luo, I know, I don't know when this society has judged whether a person is excellent or not, either an official position or money, but I just want to tell you that sometimes, a man's ability and courage to take responsibility are always more valuable than gold and all the qiē." Of course, in the end, it was all Xu Calm's fault for this kid, "I changed my words sharply, pushed the window open, and then shouted: "Calm, you come here"

Xu calmly walked up to me, opened his mouth, and didn't speak, while I smiled and said to Luo Lan's father: "I apologize to the two of you and help you get angry!" "

After speaking, I picked up Xu Danding and pushed him out of the window.

This sudden action frightened everyone, and seeing Xu calmly disappearing into the window and falling downstairs, Luo Lan, who was watching from the side, collapsed all of a sudden, and cried loudly: "Calm! "
