After parking the car and confirming with the flower shop owner, Zhang Lan sat in the car and continued to lie down. After tying up the car, Zhang Lan called Zhang Hu and knew that he was still in the bridal shop and put on makeup, so he drove to find a place to buy a few buns and porridge and have breakfast. Then I drove directly to Wang Tao's house in Xiaowangzhuang.

The process of picking up the kiss was very uneventful, that is, the bridesmaid's blocking of the door was to ask for a few red envelopes, so that Wang Tao sang a song and opened the door.

When worshipping heaven and earth, Zhang Lan and Zhang Hu stood on the roof of the aisle to watch the excitement, Zhang Lan said with a smile: "I didn't expect it to be quite smooth, so I came down so steadily." ”

Liu Chao, the cousin of Zhang Lan's second aunt, said on the side: "What went well, what went well, the packing money that I temporarily found yesterday, and today's change of mouth fee also said a clear number." The cigarettes and alcohol at my mother's banquet were all raised to a higher level, and I was tossed a lot last night, and I kept running to the store to buy cigarettes all night, for fear that I would not have enough today. ”

"Didn't you say that it was all outsourced? Why do you have to buy cigarettes? Zhang Lan asked with some confusion.

Liu Chao sighed and said, "Temporarily I need more than 20 of the same cigarettes to get them and prepare them." It's all said in advance, so you can buy it if you can say it's bought. It's almost enough to have two or three cigarettes in a store, and people who sell them won't sell them to you all at once, so I ran to a dozen stores yesterday to buy them all. ”

"Let's go, let's go, there's no point in discussing this, I've finished worshipping heaven and earth, and I'm ready to sit down at the table to eat." Seeing that he was walking into the house after worshipping heaven and earth, Zhang Hu spoke.

Zhang Lan didn't go when he sent his mother's family after eating, he was about to drive home, looking at the two packs of cigarettes in the car, Zhang Lan sighed. The car was started and returned to Qingshan Village.

Back at the old house, Zhang Lan took two boxes of cigarettes out of the car, found two boxes of good cigarettes from the house, and put them in the armrest box. I called Tian Qingyong and asked him where he was now, and I would send him over after washing the car in a while.

Tian Qingyong said with a smile on the phone: "Don't send it, you are at home now, Jiang Hongxiang and Jiang will go over to find you in a while, you can wait for me at home." ”

Zhang Lan agreed, and after hanging up the phone, she looked at the flowers on the front cover of the car, and Zhang Lan carefully picked them off. After picking up, the car was rinsed, fortunately, Zhang Lan added some money when he tied the flowers today, and all the small suction cups in front were fixed.

Tian Qingyong and Jiang Hongxiang came quickly, and arrived at Zhang Lan's door in ten minutes after hanging up the phone. Jiang Hongxiang was driving a white off-road vehicle, Tian Qingyong jumped down from the co-pilot and said with a smile: "Mr. Jiang visited the factory at noon today, we were chatting after dinner when you called, and Mr. Jiang said that he would come to visit you after hearing that it was you." ”

Zhang Lan said with a smile: "Brother Yong, what you said is too polite. Good afternoon, Mr. Jiang, sit in the house. ”

When they arrived in the living room of the hall and sat down with each other on the sofa, Jiang Hongxiang said with a smile: "It's nothing to do today, but I heard from Mr. Tian that Zhang Lan was at home, so I came to visit." Thanks to your help, I have solved my troubles several times. ”

Zhang Lan waved his hand and said, "Mr. Jiang is polite, it's just a gesture, I basically didn't help much, I just said a few words." ”

"A few words will help a lot, I'll have a treat in the evening, let's go to the resettlement hall in the moat to play." Jiang Hongxiang said with a smile.

Zhang Lan and Tian Qingyong glanced at each other and laughed in unison. In Jiang Hongxiang's somewhat confused eyes, Tian Qingyong explained with a smile: "Zhang Lan came back from Kyoto by train yesterday morning, and I went to pick him up at the station. I took him there once at noon, and this guy didn't think the food was delicious. You said that we people only go there to eat, and that's pretty much it. ”

Jiang Hongxiang nodded, and said with the same smile: "That's the reason." But Zhang Lan doesn't like the environment, let's go to the mountains, the Xuanwu hot spring hall in the mountains is okay, and it's good to soak in the hot springs after eating. Zhang Lan: What do you think? ”

"Yes. Let's go back in the evening, I'll just come back from the dinner, it's still early, let's go again. Zhang Lan said with a smile.

"What's the break, didn't Zhang Hu open a chess and card room in the village? Let's go and touch it twice, and then we'll go there in the evening. Tian Qingyong said with a smile.

Zhang Lan shook his head and said, "Brother Yong, you and Mr. Jiang should go, I'm not interested in mahjong." ”

"Let's go back to the factory first and do what needs to be done, and then take Zhang Lan with us when we pass by here at night." Jiang Hongxiang on the side proposed.

Tian Qingyong thought for a while and said: "It's okay, but it's almost all talked about, and it's okay to do it earlier." Zhang Lan: What do you think? ”

"That's good. Just call me when you get here in the evening. Zhang Lan said with a smile.

Tian Qingyong and Jiang Hongxiang didn't stay at Zhang Lan's house, and after agreeing, they drove a car and left Zhang Lan's house. Zhang Lan stood at the gate and watched the two drive away, and when he turned the corner casually, Zhang Lan saw two cars coming, which were his own two cars.

Zhang Hu and Liu Chao parked the car, and Zhang Lan's father and mother got out of the car driven by Zhang Hu. Liu Chao on the side parked the car and said hello to everyone, and then rode the electric car parked in Zhang Lan's yard and hurried away, saying that he would go to the factory to change shifts with the driver. He didn't drink at the banquet just now, and the business in the factory has been good these days, and a delay is a few hundred yuan a day.

Zhang Hu and Zhang Lan's parents also prepared to leave after greeting him, and Zhang Lan called out to Zhang Hu after sending him out of the gate. Zhang Lan opened his mouth and asked, "Brother Tiger, what is the form of your current chess and card room?" ”

Zhang Hu scratched his head and said, "It's not much of a formality, it's just that our village and nearby villages come to play." Now Zhang Dashan and his brother are not asking for money indiscriminately, and the number of the two families is about the same. What's wrong with this, you ask? ”

"Tian Qingyong and Jiang Hongxiang came to me just now, and he said that you have a chess and card room, and you are going to play two games with Jiang Hongxiang. I pushed it, is your chess and card room a bit big now? Zhang Lan asked.

Zhang Hu was silent for a while and said: "There are two waves of people who play a lot, but my dad often watches from the chess and card room, and I usually take care of the contracted land." I heard that there are one or two tables that play big at night, and sometimes hundreds of thousands of dollars go in one night. ”

"You will go back in a while, ask my uncle clearly which tables are, it is best to stop the chess and card room for a few days, you can't touch such a large amount, tell those who play large amounts to get out of here." Zhang Lan said to Zhang Hu seriously.

Zhang Hu nodded and said, "I know, I'll park the chess and card room when I go back." Take my mother and my mother out to play for a few days, and when I come back, I won't be allowed to play with large amounts. ”

Seeing that Zhang Hu listened to his persuasion, Zhang Lan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You just need to know the severity." It's okay to play for ten dollars and twenty, but don't touch the big ones. You don't have a dispute with the bank, but now there is an overdue due date at most. But if you get in because of this, it will affect the child's whole life. ”
