Chapter 61: Good and evil will be rewarded in the end
In the golden autumn of October, the autumn girl quietly came to the world with the good news of the harvest, with the help of the cool and comfortable autumn wind, the elegant and agile autumn rain, spread all over the city, the countryside, the fields, the famous mountains and rivers.
Her enthusiasm makes the golden leaves flutter and dance in the warm sunlight with the cheerful and soft autumn breeze; It also ripens the fruits.
On this sunny morning, Lu Lao, Li Lao, and Qiao Lao, accompanied by Governor Zhou, came to the beautiful resort. Fengcheng City, Meng Haiyun, and Vice Mayor Hu also came to greet them.
Under the leadership of Mayor Meng, the old people came to this quiet and peaceful, beautiful mountainous area, emptied themselves and enjoyed the holiday life. The old man listened to Mayor Meng talk about the resort, the formation of the lake, and the planning of Xinghua Village, and the three echoed each other from afar, forming a unity of mountains and rivers; Humanities are one.
At this time, Qiao Lao and Li Lao also deeply felt that the resort that Lu Lao told them was a paradise.
Qiao Lao asked Mayor Meng, "Why haven't you seen the owner of the resort?" ”
Mayor Meng hurriedly replied: "She took her children to the United States, and the children are going to school there, and she will come back after accompanying them for a while." ”
At this time, Zhang Fakui took several police officers in the bureau and arranged the security work.
Meng Haiyun pointed at Zhang Fakui and said with a smile: "That is her father." ”
Lu Lao also looked over, and it happened that Zhang Fakui was also walking towards this side. Lu Lao greeted him with a smile, and the two shook hands warmly. Zhang Fakui shouted very respectfully: "Hello, leader! ”
Lu Lao understood that he already knew his identity, and said with a smile: "Haha, hello! Don't be so polite. You still call me an old brother. We'll have another drink later. ”
Under the introduction of Meng Haiyun, Governor Zhou knew that the director was Zhang Wanru's father. Ever since he knew that Lu Lao and they had come to the resort, he had already guessed the relationship between Lu Mingyu and Zhang Wanru. Because Lu Mingyu has been in the steel group for nearly ten years, few people know that he is the youngest son of this old man except himself.
Governor Zhou also knew that Meng Haiyun was a student of Lv Lao's son, and judging from Meng Haiyun's performance at this time, he must have known Lv Lao for a long time. Meng Haiyun did a very good job of receiving the old people this time, and also stopped the bus to the resort for the arrival of the old people. In addition to some elderly people who live in the resort, there are many fewer outsiders.
At the United States International Airport, Zhang Wanru's family of four got off the plane. As the flow of people walked out of the airport, Yuchen and Yulu, the two searched for them one by one in the crowd of people who picked them up, and soon saw a middle-aged woman holding a sign with the name "Zhang Wanru, Yuchen, Yulu" written on it.
The two children ran over happily and shouted, "Auntie, we are Yuchen, Yulu." ”
When the middle-aged woman saw them, she immediately greeted them with a smile, hugged them, and then looked at Zhang Wanru, who was holding her mother-in-law, and said with a smile: "Hello aunt." Wanru, right? My name is Lu Minghua, and I am Mingyu's eldest sister. ”
Zhang Wanru smiled politely and said, "Hello, eldest sister." Sorry to bother you. ”
Lu Minghua smiled and said, "What is this called?" I've been waiting for you to come for a long time. Haha, with you staying here in the future, I also have a companion. Give them the documents and let them pick up their luggage and we'll go home first. ”
Zhang Wanru handed the packing list to a man standing beside Lu Minghua. The four followed Lu Minghua to the parking lot and got into a Lamborghini. Lu Minghua personally drove it and drove towards the city.
Along the way, Zhang Wanru's family of four looked at the pedestrians and endless traffic on the street through the window glass, observing the culture and architecture of this country, with different moods.
The two children were surprised to see a foreigner on the street who had only been seen on TV before. Some have snow-white skin, high nose bridge, blue glasses, and yellow hair; Occasionally, you can see dark skin, thick lips, snow-white teeth, especially eyes, two large black and white eyes, and the eyeballs are dripping and rolling.
The two children not only excelled in all their homework, but also learned geography and history very well, and before leaving, they also learned a detailed about the history and geography of the country.
Knowing that this country and your home country belong to the northern hemisphere, and that the seasons of the year are similar, the only obvious difference is that there is a time difference of twelve hours. At this time, the autumn breeze is warm and the sun is shining, but it is the early morning time in the motherland.
Zhang Wanru and Wang Yun, in their eyes, also felt strange and novel, as if they had parachuted into another world.
Lu Minghua drove the car and asked with a smile, "Wanru, I heard that you have a hotel and a beautiful resort." Buildings are still being built. ”
"Yes, the hotel is an old guesthouse remodeled, and it has only been built for a few years. The resort is in my hometown, which is a mountainous area. ”
Wanru said modestly. While admiring the new environment, she is also observing the big sister.
When he came, Lu Mingyu told her that the eldest sister was the eldest in the family, and Lu Minghai was the second. This eldest sister's facial features are similar to Lu Minghai's, but she is also a little fat, especially when she is a little shorter than herself, her skin is fair, her facial features are exquisite, she is very handsome, especially she has a smiling face, which gives people the feeling that she is very easy to get along with.
Now that I see the three sisters and brothers of the Lu family, in comparison, Lu Mingyu is the tallest and best-looking among the three of them. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but laugh in my heart, this guy is worthy of being the eldest and youngest in the family, he is loved by his family in every way, he eats and drinks well, and it is strange that he is not tall. Even if he gets into trouble now, someone else will solve it for him.
The car drove into a three-story villa with a single courtyard and stopped in front of it.
After Lu Minghua got out of the car, he smiled at the four people who also got out of the car and said, "This is your home, see if you like it or not?" I bought it from a compatriot who had only stayed for two holidays. ”
The villa is luxurious, surrounded by lawns and small gardens, and the living room is fully furnished and richly decorated. The kids ran to see the bedroom, which was very warmly decorated and the bedding was all new.
Lu Minghua saw that the children were very satisfied with the house, and his heart was much more steady.
smiled and said to Wanru and the old lady: "My father specially asked me to buy a piano, saying that these two children play very well. I bought a bicycle for each of my two children. There is a car in the yard, you can go out and walk, and if you are not familiar with the road, take your time. ”
"Thank you, eldest sister, for making you tired." Wanru saw her so attentive and said gratefully.
"What are you polite to me? From now on, we will be a family. You take a rest first, and I'll pick you up at dinner. With that, he left.
Everything the old lady experienced today, at this time, she was still in a trance, not only did she take the plane, but also saw so many strange people. The main thing is that she already feels that leaving the motherland this time is definitely not so simple.
When I saw the scene of Lu Mingyu seeing him off at the airport, I already felt that the relationship between the two was not ordinary, and with the fact that the eldest sister of the Lu family was so enthusiastic, I already understood that Wanru already had a heart.
Dinner was eaten at Lu Minghua's hotel, and the hometown dishes made by their family were specially cooked.
After dinner, I got home.
Zhang Wanru watched her mother-in-law and her two children sitting on the sofa, sat down as well, and said to them: "Mom, Yuchen, Yulu, let me tell you one thing." I'm pregnant. The child's father is Lu Mingyu, who went to the airport to see us off. ”
After she finished speaking, she observed everyone's expressions, and was not surprised to see her mother-in-law, while the two children were a little confused, and looked at each other, and then both looked at their mother.
Zhang Wanru looked at the two children and said, "Do you remember, Grandpa Lu who went to our house?" Just the baby's grandfather. This aunt you just met is also the baby's aunt. When I met at the Beijing airport, my teacher was the baby's uncle. Both of you will have two younger brothers. ”
Yulu didn't go to see her brother, and said happily: "Ao, okay, okay, I have a younger brother." ”
The old lady finally understood the real reason why she had come here across the ocean.
A kind smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Wanru, why didn't you say it earlier?" You can find someone who feels sorry for you, and that's what I've always hoped for. Over the years, you have endured hardships to support this family, and my two children and I have seen it. Now that they have children, they will have a family in the future, and these two children can also have a complete family. After a hundred years, I can walk with peace of mind. The young man was nice, and he was nice to the kids. After the baby is born, I will take it, and I can be a companion with them in the future. ”
"Thank you, Mom. We now have better living conditions, two more children, and a lively family. Therefore, I also have a last resort to bring you here. Thank you for your understanding."
Wang Yun had also guessed what she was talking about. Since the Lu family is so dedicated, they must have also recognized Wanru. I had nothing to worry about, and smiled and said, "Okay, I believe in you." ”
Yuchen sat next to her grandmother and said with a smile: "We will also take care of our younger brothers, and we will take them to play after school in the future." ”
Zhang Wanru said solemnly: "The matter of the younger brothers should be kept secret now, as long as we and my aunt's family know." Don't tell your relatives in China for the time being, can you do it? ”
"Yes, you can't say it to anyone in your family, can you?" Yuchen asked.
"Yes."
"Okay. Guaranteed to do it. The two children said firmly.
"We just stayed in peace. Your aunt said that the three of us were going to a language class. Your grandmother will be spared. When you have time, you can teach her some simple everyday words. Your school, uncle and aunt have already been contacted, and when the time comes, after the exam, what grade will you look at? ”
Yuchen took out a bank card from his pocket and put it on the coffee table, saying, "Before we get on the plane." Uncle Lu gave me a bank card. He said that there were $40,000 in it, which was our family's living expenses and our tuition fees, and my sister and I would be responsible for buying the things that the family needed in the future, okay? ”
Zhang Wanru knew that Lu Mingyu was very thoughtful, and said with a smile: "Okay." ”
When she came, Sister Xuemei said that many teenagers here would work to earn pocket money. During the meal, I asked my aunt if I wanted to work at her hotel, was it okay? ”
Yuchen behaved like a man, speaking seriously, as if he was not discussing with his mother, but announcing his decision.
They heard Zhang Xuemei say that she worked part-time to earn pocket money when she was in college. He also talked about the fact that there is no shame in working part-time, and in the process of working, not only can you have income, but also learn a lot of things.
"If you want to do something, I won't stop you, once you have a choice, you have to stick to it, just be happy. In the process of part-time work, you can also learn language communication. ”
They had a day off, and Lu Minghua came over and took them to a language class.
The lady came to the classroom, there are all kinds of people here, they are very warm to each other, and the words of greeting are very smooth, and then they can't communicate well.
Zhang Wanru has been learning English in school for more than ten years, but there is a lack of communication. The children have also learned the basics for several years, and they have all learned well, and they can understand it quickly today, but the pronunciation of the spoken language needs to be changed.
When she came home from school, during dinner, Zhang Wanru asked the children, "Do you want to learn the language as soon as possible?" ”
"Of course, do as the locals do. If you can't learn the language, it's like a fool to stay here, and that's a failure. We need to learn as soon as possible. ”
Yu Chen looked at his sister and said.
"Okay, now let's study together, each of us learns fifty words, twenty sentences a day, practices speaking for an hour, and watches two original movies."
"It's good to be with my mom every day. I'm sure I'll learn. ”
Yulu happily hugged Wanru's arm and said.
"We also took the time to help out at your aunt's hotel. A smart person pays attention to learning everywhere, and will learn what he wants to learn without others noticing. Secondly, you should also pay attention to how the people here treat people. ”
The reason why Zhang Wanru didn't tell them what to learn was to let them observe and ponder by themselves, so that they could learn more things.
Next, Zhang Wanru drove every day, took the children to language classes, and every afternoon after school, the three of them came to Lu Minghua's hotel to help, and the two children helped serve dishes and clean up the garbage, and they were still very energetic.
Lu Minghua saw that the mother was so attentive, and said to Wanru: "You don't have to let the children do these jobs, we are not short of money." ”
"Sister, it's not about money, it's about letting them learn to live. They learn to communicate in the language of their work, and they learn that to live is to work. Take advantage of this time to let them experience life, and I also need to be more active so that the child can be born. ”
"Okay, I want them to go to the hall and play the piano for a while every night at five o'clock, okay?"
"Okay, let's play it. It also exercises guts. I also thought about it, when the language is learned, please find a piano teacher for them to teach. They were taught by my mom and there was no formal study. ”
"Okay, I'll listen to you, tomorrow, I'll take you for a prenatal checkup."
Every time Zhang Wanru is in the evening, she will always see more than a dozen young people, dressed in strange costumes, riding motorcycles on the road in front of the hotel, rampage into the land of no one, and every time at this time she will make strange noises. It seriously affects the lives of nearby shops and people.
Lu Minghua saw Zhang Wanru standing at the door of the hotel, frowning and looking at the motorcycle team speeding by, and said helplessly: "There are many Chinese compatriots in our neighborhood, and they are also like my mother-in-law's family, who moved their family's property here during the war years. In the past, they were all very well run, and they also donated money and materials to support the domestic defense against foreign humiliation. However, in the past two or three decades, it has been squeezed out by local companies to the point where it is almost impossible to survive. is also constantly harassed by this group of thugs. ”
Zhang Wanru was in a nearby supermarket owned by a Chinese person, and she had also seen it with her own eyes, and this group of people went in like bandits to pick up and eat, and they had to pick up some before leaving. At that time, I was still thinking, is this a country that talks about human rights?
Zhang Wanru asked: "What business did my brother-in-law's family do before?" ”
"In the past, your brother-in-law's family was engaged in industry, with a cotton mill and a freight company. But after a few decades, this hotel remained. ”
Zhang Wanru saw this group of arrogant and domineering paparazzi, and really wanted to teach them a lesson, but her body was really inconvenient.
Lu Minghua said helplessly: "The security here is not very good, these guys come out to make trouble during the day, and sometimes they will come out in the middle of the night to race, so that people can't rest well." ”
Zhang Wanru observed the surrounding streets, and secretly made up her mind in her heart, there are people shoveling uneven roads, and there are people taking care of uneven things, since I have come here to settle down, I can't let you run rampant. Although I can't teach you a lesson, I might as well give you a little punishment. Otherwise, he would have learned martial arts in vain.
The next day, Lu Minghua sent the two children to the language school and then took Wanru to the hospital.
After getting in the car, Zhang Wanru took out two exquisite jewelry boxes and handed them to her, and said with a smile: "Sister, I have two small pendants here for you and your niece." ”。
Lu Minghua took it and opened it, and said excitedly: "Ah! Such a big ruby is worth a lot of money, right? It's so precious. You didn't bring anything, and I'd like to buy you some pieces of jewelry in a few days. But you gave it to me first. ”
She didn't take her eyes off the gems in the jewelry box, thinking to herself that everything she had done for them had cost a lot of money, which was a drop in the bucket compared to these two huge gems. This beautiful younger brother and sister are also too bold.
"Sister, what are you polite to me? You are not only beautiful, but also have an extraordinary temperament, and only such a gemstone is suitable for you. In China, my career is not small, and I am a widow, so I can only keep a low profile. These two small pendants only express my heart, just if you don't dislike it. ”
Lu Minghua pursed his lips and smiled, thinking, is this bought from China? With such a one, you can almost change a very good villa, how can you dislike it? I just don't want to buy it no matter how much I like it.
hurriedly flattered and said: "Haha, you are so beautiful, you are a dazzling pearl in yourself." Well, thank you. ”
I came to the hospital and gave the fetus a health check-up. The child is very well developed and healthy.
Lu Minghua said happily: "Wanru, the old man called and said that you are a good girl with courage and knowledge. Haha, even your teacher is full of praise for you, the old man has also praised you since he went to your house, and now I also feel very angry with you. ”
Zhang Wanru's heart also brightened a lot after hearing this, she used to be with Lu Mingyu, although she did not explore his family situation, but he gave himself the impression that he was a willful and domineering person, since he saw the eldest sister of Lu Lao and Mian, he felt that he really had a fate with the old Lu family. Because I feel from the bottom of my heart that they are all very kind.
Day and night change, the sun and the moon reincarnate, and in a blink of an eye, it is the New Year, Christmas in Western countries.
The streets were in the festive mood and the children bought Christmas trees. Their language was able to communicate easily, too.
Children learn languages the fastest. It was Zhang Wanru who was wise, they were in her aunt's hotel, learned to communicate with people, and won the friendship of many staff.
The people in the hotel are their teachers, and the children have a great time, especially when they play the piano, and the guests who come to the hotel always stop to listen to the children's piano sound, and they are also very satisfied.
On a dark and windy night, Zhang Wanru put the pebbles she picked up and took advantage of in the pocket of her down jacket and quietly walked out of the house. After all this time, she has figured out the pattern of the gangsters, who will ride their motorcycles through the streets late at night on Saturdays and weekends.
She took advantage of the cover of night to put the hat of the down jacket on her head, and also put on a black mask to cover most of her face. Because my body is a bit heavy, it is not easy to walk fast, so I wander around like this, looking for a suitable position on the side of the street.
When she came to a place far away from the store, it was the blind spot of the security cameras of each store. She stood quietly in a corner and waited for them to arrive at eleven o'clock.
The cold wind howled and made her shiver, thinking to herself, in order to stop these guys for a while, don't be polite to them today. At least let them lie in bed for a while. I have practiced the secret weapon for five or six years, and I can't play it in China, so I don't need to be polite to them here.
Zhang Wanru didn't feel cold at this time, but also felt very excited and excited. Haha, I didn't expect that coming to a foreign country can also lead to a hero's addiction.
Just as Zhang Wanru was snickering in her heart, she heard the roar of motorcycles and the howls of those people from the east side of the block. They were galloping like a group of wild horses on the loose, Zhang Wanru was already holding five stones in her hands, and just as the distance was getting closer and closer, the five stones with a strong wind were like bullets out of the chamber, and they were thrown at the heads of the three men riding on the motorcycle in front of them.
The ensuing exclamations, wails and the crash of all the motorcycles, some of which slid diagonally against the ground and sparkled, sliding far away before coming to a stop.
Just when the screams rang out, the shops on both sides of the street, the windows of every house, and the curtains were lifted to the corners, and one by one they leaned into the windows to look out. There was a look of schadenfreude on everyone's face.
Zhang Wanru turned around and left without the slightest hesitation, and quietly returned home in the cold wind. It's like a hero who has completed a mission, happily going to bed and sleeping.
There was no word all night, and dawn in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Wanru still got up on time, helped her mother-in-law make breakfast, and after the family ate, she drove the children to the language school to study.
In the afternoon, at four o'clock, Zhang Wanru and the children came to the hotel, and they heard some guests who came to the hotel for dinner to talk about last night's events.
A local old man smiled at the old man next to him and said, "Last night, five ambulances came, and those bastards were all bleeding, some of them had broken legs, and some of them had broken a few ribs. Haha, we can be quiet for a while. ”
Another old man took a sip from his wine glass and said with a smile: "When the police asked them, they said that they were hit in the neck by stones, and some were hit in the head by stones. It didn't seem to be that strong last night, did it? ”
An old Chinese man said with a smile: "There is a proverb in our hometown, 'Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, only strive for early and late', haha, God has finally opened his eyes." ”
After hearing this, Zhang Wanru gave the old man a thumbs up in her heart, it seems that she is following the will of God this time, so that many people are satisfied.
The peaceful life made Zhang Wanru's family gradually adapt to it. Especially mother-in-law Wang Yun is very happy, in the past, in China, it was difficult for the family to get together every day, talk and laugh, eat together, and speak not fluent language together, and then repeat it over and over again in order to correct it.
When Zhang Wanru first came, she would find time to talk about work with several managers in Fengcheng City every day, but in order to protect the child in her belly from the radiation of the computer, she finally pushed all the affairs directly to Zhang Xuemei.
At noon that day, when the family was cleaning for the arrival of the Spring Festival, Wanru received a call from Ji Yuqing, "Wanru, are you okay there?" ”
"Yes, we are busy with language classes. Now we can communicate simply. No problem on the construction site, right? ”
"Everything works fine. The real estate of our Fangxin Garden has been handed over. Haha, more than 10,000 units were sold in the past few months at the end of the year. Now, in addition to the 1,000 sets we have set aside, there are more than 500 sets that have not been sold. Most of them are the first and second floors and the top floor. ”
After hearing this, Zhang Wanru was very excited, so that the two of them could have a lot of dividends. smiled and said, "You have worked hard." I'll go back when I'm with them for a while. ”
"It's not hard. Wanru, you can stay there and spend some more time with the children. I can handle it here. ”
"Well, at the latest in the second half of next year, I will definitely be able to go back."
Put away the phone, Zhang Wanru is in a very good mood, it seems that it is very wise to invest in real estate, she has also learned to budget in the past few years on the construction site, and she has also learned a lot of architectural knowledge. Not only does real estate make money, but also makes bricks, doors and windows and earns more than other industries.
Just when Wanru was still immersed in the excitement of making a fortune, the phone rang suddenly, and she quickly connected it, and heard her father's loud voice, "Wanru, you stinky girl, forget about us when you go." Are you all right? ”
"Hey, happy New Year, Dad! We're all good. We are busy learning languages every day. How's the house? ”
"Mayor Meng has been promoted. You talked to me before leaving, and I'm now on the back burner. Your eldest brother brought it up. Your second brother is the mayor of Jiangcheng City. Your uncle went to Provincial Steel as deputy general manager. He also said that you could help. Stinky girl, how much else are you hiding from me? ”
"Dad has some things that he can only do but not say. You have to thank me, just scold me a few less times in the future. ”
"Stinky girl, you are stuffy with everything, aren't you panicking? You must have something to hide from us. ”
"Well, there really is, if you want to know, let's visit my mother next year."
Time flies, and half a year has passed in a blink of an eye. Zhang Wanru and her children graduated from the language school, and Yulu and Yuchen officially went to school. After the exams, they were admitted to high school.
Soon, Wanru also entered the delivery room and gave birth to two healthy boys.
Looking at the two sleeping babies in the crook of her arm, she felt the weight and body temperature, and felt extremely happy in her heart. They are the flowers of their own life and the driving force for their unremitting efforts in the future.
In order to make them grow up happily, I will work harder, 'women are weak, mothers are strong' Mr. Liang Qichao can put forward such incisive words, it is Zhang Wanru's heart at this time.
Lu Minghua looked at the two cute babies and happily called home, "Dad, it's born, healthy, well, okay." ”
"Wanru, Dad asked you to answer the phone."
"Uncle, we're fine."
"Child, you have worked hard, your eldest sister will take good care of you. Mingyu can't leave, and there are still patients at home. ”
"I knew it was enough to let him take care of the patient with peace of mind. My father is about to retire, and in the second half of the year, my mother and I came to visit relatives. There was also my mother-in-law and eldest sister, who took good care of her. ”
Lu Minghua hurriedly took the phone, "Dad, you can name the child." ”
"I'm up. The elder brother's name is Lu Chunqiu, and the younger brother's name is Lu Huashi. ”
