Chapter 425: Visiting Relatives (I)
Two days later.
Nine o'clock in the morning.
Lu You stood on the side of the road in front of the community, bored looking at the traffic.
Tang Wan on the side grabbed Lu You's left hand and observed it intently, turning over and pinching it a few times from time to time, full of a charlatan who looks at palmistry.
"Husband."
"Huh?"
"Your fingers are so thin and long! It's a shame not to play the piano. ”
Lu You scratched Tang Wan's chin with his backhand, and said with a smile: "It's not that I can't play, it's just that I don't have the main job." ”
"Say." Tang Wan naturally took Lu You's arm and said, "What does our uncle do, and we have to avoid suspicion when we visit him?" ”
"Guess?"
"Could it be that he is a member of the Dragon Group, a national mysterious organization? Specialized in handling cases of persons with disabilities. ”
Lu You flicked his fingers at Tang Wan's head, and scolded with a smile: "Return the dragon group, the city has seen too much!" ”
Tang Wan frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "You can all travel from another world, why can't there be a dragon group?" ”
"Anyway, this world doesn't have it, 100% not." Lu You affirmed.
"Don't sell it, quickly reveal the mystery!" Tang Wan urged angrily.
"He's a civil servant."
This answer is also within Tang Wan's guess.
After all, in the capital, you have to reduce the grade of the car to visit, and it is estimated that you will be an official.
"Uncle can be an official in the capital, is his position very high?" Tang Wan said curiously.
Lu You thought for a long time and said: "To apply the level division of Dou Breaking the Firmament, from top to bottom, the highest is Dou Di, followed by Dou Sheng, Dou Zun, then the realm of Uncle is a half-step Dou Sheng." ”
"That's amazing!" Tang Wan's eyes widened, and she looked surprised.
Lu You stretched out his hand and tapped the tip of Tang Wan's nose, and said, "Uncle is the representative of the Shen family in the political circles, how can he do it if he is not powerful?"
"Does that uncle still have a chance to advance to the Dou Sheng?"
Lu You shook his head and said, "Unless most of the Shen family's assets are released, it is impossible." ”
"Why?"
"Do you know how to divide the cake among the children so that they don't make a fuss?" Lu You asked rhetorically.
Tang Wan pondered for a moment, and said uncertainly: "Evenly divided by the number of people?" ”
"In the same way, the Shen family focuses on business and is in the top ranks, so it is inevitable that the other two fields cannot interfere too much. At the end of the day, it's just two words, balance. ”
Tang Wan suddenly realized and said, "The rules of the game for adults? ”
"That's right."
Suddenly, Tang Wan remembered someone.
"By the way, is Sister Miao Miao the daughter of my uncle?"
"Hah!"
Lu You couldn't help but laugh and said, "If Sister Miao is the daughter of my uncle, you can now search for my uncle's report on the website of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, believe it or not?" ”
"Uh......"
Tang Wan thought of Shen Miaomiao wearing a luxury brand, driving a supercar and taking herself shopping.
"Well, Sister Miao is indeed not like the daughter of an official family."
After chatting for about five minutes, Lu Jianyan appeared in front of the two with a red flag and picked them up.
……
Stopping and stopping all the way, finally at close to ten o'clock, the car drove into a community with obvious traces of time.
Lu You looked out through the car window, and the height of the surrounding residential buildings was not like today's high-rise buildings, often in the tenth and twentieth floors.
The buildings here, only seven storeys high, are decorated in a style that is very characteristic of the early nineties of the last century, especially the windows, which are typical of coated glass, are still blue.
The air conditioner was hanging under the window edge, and two long rusty tails grew.
"The people who still live here today must be elderly!"
As soon as Tang Wan finished speaking, a schoolboy on a skateboard roared past her, followed by three or four followers of the same size, and the noise went from far to near, and then drifted into the distance.
"Hahaha!" Lu You touched Tang Wan's flushed cheeks and teased, "Does your face hurt?" ”
Tang Wan slapped Lu You's hand away and said in shame: "Climb away, don't hit me!" ”
Listening to the noise of the two fighting, Lu Jianyan smiled.
It's good to be young!
Thinking back to high school, he and the girl sitting in front of him were in a similar situation.
It's a pity that after the college entrance examination, they went their separate ways and never saw each other again.
Shen Yuyin, the co-pilot, seemed to be telepathic, and immediately asked, "Kid's father, what are you thinking?" ”
Lu Jianyan restrained his smile and said without changing his face: "It's nothing, I'm thinking about where to eat at night." ”
"Really?"
"It's more real than pearls."
Shen Yuyin always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it, so he simply gave up.
The car was parked next to the building.
Everyone got out of the car.
Tang Wan held Lu Jingshu with one hand, and her eyes looked at the residential building in front of her.
The distance is closer, and the smell of time exuded by the house becomes clearer and clearer.
The mottled roads, the rusty iron gates, the security nets, and the cluttered lines all tell the story of the past.
"The housing prices here should be a lot cheaper than the new development, right?"
Lu Jianyan opened the trunk and lifted a square insulated bag and a big red plastic bag into his hands.
Hearing Tang Wan's speculation, he replied with a smile: "I think too much." Don't look at the old community, there is a famous primary school and a famous junior high school nearby, which belongs to the top school district housing, and the transportation is convenient, the current market price starts at eight figures, and it is not yet available. ”
Tang Wan silently looked up at the sky.
The eight-digit ancient era is old and dilapidated, and it can only be said that it is worthy of real estate.
"Uncle lives in such an expensive house, won't he be arrested?" Lu You wondered.
"The house is assigned to Uncle Ling, and it is okay to live in, but it is not allowed to buy and sell privately." Lu Jianyan explained.
"Civil servant benefits are so good?"
"It used to be true, but now it's average, but it's better to be stable."
I don't know if it's because the country's security is too good, or because the door lock is damaged, the entrance to the residential building is like the heroine in the Little Blue Bird Daily Contest, the door is wide open, unguarded.
Walking into the dimly lit corridor, I walked up the cement stairs step by step, until I reached a door, and everyone stopped.
It's a very special door.
It's not that the door itself is special, it's that it's special to appear here.
The entrance doors of the other residents are all rusty blue painted iron fences on the outside and a wooden security door on the inside, and the door locks still look like cameras.
But the entrance door of this household is completely different, not only the door is a new style of stainless steel anti-theft door, but the door lock is also a smart door lock with fingerprints and face recognition.
Like a phoenix falling into a chicken coop, it looks out of place.
"Here we are." Lu Jianyan raised his hand and rang the doorbell twice.
Tang Wan grabbed the corner of Lu You's clothes and tugged at it, and whispered, "Husband, you said that you would see your uncle later, what should I call him?" ”
"What do you think is appropriate?" Lu You asked rhetorically.
Tang Wan shook Lu You's eyes, and said speechlessly: "I need to know that I still need to ask you?" ”
"It's okay to call uncle, uncle, whatever you like."
Tang Wan's mind turned, and she quickly had an idea.
"It's okay to call uncle, family, just call me uncle, it feels weird."
At this point, the door opens.
A middle-aged woman with a height of about one meter six, black hair but a slightly old face appeared in front of everyone.
Lu Jianyan and Shen Yuyin took the lead in greeting: "Good morning, sister-in-law!" ”
The corners of the woman's mouth were raised, a kind smile was revealed, and she said enthusiastically, "Here it is!" Why did you bring something with you? ”
"Just the fruit bought on the street, and two local chickens brought from Yue Province, it's not in the way." Shen Yuyin replied.
"If you have a heart, come in and sit!"
Lu Jianyan and his wife took Lu Jingshu to enter the door first to change shoes, and Lu You and Tang Wan followed their heels.
"Hello aunt!" x2
The woman's surname is Min, and the single word is Jie, which means elegant, beautiful and educated.
Min Jie's gaze stayed on Tang Wan for a long time, staring at Tang Wan until she was hairy, and then slowly withdrew it and smiled, "Hello." ”
Tang Wan breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, as if she had been pardoned.
For some reason, Min Jie gave her a feeling of facing a teacher in kindergarten, gentle and majestic.
"There are slippers on the floor, you can change them yourself, and come to the living room after you have changed them."
"Yes, auntie." Lu You nodded politely.
After Min Jie left, Tang Wan immediately grabbed Lu You's arm and asked nervously, "Is my aunt dissatisfied with me?" ”
"How so?"
Tang Wan pointed to her eyes and said worriedly: "The way she looks at me, she is so scary!" ”
Lu You held Tang Wan's right hand and said with a smile: "My aunt has been the senior class teacher for more than ten years, and her eyes are too scary!" ”
"Is it like this?"
"Hurry up and change your shoes and go in, don't make the elders wait for a long time."
The two of them changed into slippers and walked into the living room.
I saw Lu Jingshu being held in the arms of a middle-aged man with a slightly chubby body, gray temples and an elegant temperament.
"Xiaoshu, do you remember who I am?"
Lu Jingshu's little head shook like a rattle, and she replied bluntly: "I don't remember." ”
The middle-aged man laughed, grabbed two Swiss sweets and stuffed them into Lu Jingshu's palm, and asked again, "What now?" ”
Lu Jingshu's smile bloomed like a flower, and said, "Remember, you are the uncle!" ”
The middle-aged man rubbed Lu Jingshu's head and said with a smile: "That's good!" ”
Seeing this, Tang Wan secretly complained.
At a young age, you know how to use your own advantages to seek benefits, and when you grow up, you can still get it?
"Alright, you can play by yourself!"
The middle-aged man, that is, Uncle Lu You, Brother Shen Yuyin, Shen Pingkuo bent down and put Lu Jingshu back on the ground, and then looked at Lu You.
"Yo, Dabao! It's been more than half a year since the Spring Festival, and it seems that you are a lot more handsome! ”
"Hello uncle." Lu You nodded slightly and smiled: "It would be better if my uncle could call me by my full name." ”
"Haha, next time." After laughing, Shen Pingkuo moved his gaze to Tang Wan again. "Who is this?"
Tang Wan was struggling with how to introduce herself, and Lu You made a decision for her first.
"My girlfriend's name is Tang Wan."
"Hello uncle." Tang Wan greeted politely.
Shen Pingkuo glanced at Tang Wan a few times, and his gaze focused on the long reddish-purple hair for a moment.
Shen Pingkuo is conservative in his heart, he doesn't like people who dye their hair with bells and whistles, and he has a feeling of being a street gangster.
But since he was brought home by Lu You and successfully entered the circle of relatives of the Lu family, he must have been recognized by Lu Jianyan and Shen Yuyin, and Shen Pingkuo didn't have much to say.
"Tang Wan? This name is quite compatible with Dabao. ”
"Perhaps, this is fate!" Lu You said with a smile.
