Chapter 241: The Gift
"Tang Tang, Dad is back!"
Zhou Tang lay on the bed and didn't want to move.
Father Zhou put down the lunch box that he had specially brought back, took the gift that Cheng Mu asked him to hand over to Zhou Tang, and knocked on her room door.
"Tang Tang!"
“… Daddy, come in. ”
Father Zhou unscrewed the lock of the door, and saw Zhou Tang's half-dried hair at a glance, "Hey, you kid, you can't lie on the bed and sleep if your hair is not dry, you are guilty of it when you are old, get up quickly, Dad will help you wipe it again." ”
He went out with a work bag, and then remembered that he forgot to hand it over to Zhou Tang, so he simply took another dry towel and returned to his daughter's room with the gift.
handed the overalls bag to Zhou Tang, who had already sat up, "This is for you!" It was a gift from your Uncle Cheng. ”
"Sit down, huh, sit on the edge of the bed, and I'll wipe your hair again." Father Zhou's voice became lower and lower, "If only there was a hair dryer, it would be powerful..."
Zhou Tang was slightly surprised to receive the gift from his uncle.
With a slight squeeze of the hand, it is hard and has four corners, which looks like a book.
She asked softly, "How did Uncle Cheng come up with the idea of giving me a gift?" ”
"You just take it, Brother Cheng said that you were smart and learned from him yesterday, and asked him about his college life and the work of the maintenance department, hey, why don't you ask your father and me? I'm not familiar with the university, and I'm familiar with the maintenance department..."
There was a hint of pride in his voice, "Brother Cheng praised you for your eagerness to learn, so I gave you some books from his university." ”
Zhou Tang rubbed the bag, she and Cheng Mu didn't talk about these words yesterday morning.
What happened to Cheng Mu?
She suspiciously swept Father Zhou's relaxed and arrogant face with her residual eyes, if Cheng Mu had something, Father Zhou would not behave like this.
Zhou Tang asked softly in confusion, "Uncle Cheng, why didn't he give it to me personally?" ”
"Oh, your Uncle Cheng, I was cheated last night! Tell me why these old employees in the maintenance department have so many eyes! What's the point of trapping a newcomer? Will the newcomers grab their way up the spot? Anyway, Father Zhou scoffed.
"I don't want to think about how many years they've been in! If you have the ability to ascend, you won't go up sooner! ”
"Huh?" Zhou Tang showed a surprised expression, and turned to look at Father Zhou directly, "How did he get trapped?" Uncle Cheng looks very smart. ”
"This has nothing to do with whether your Uncle Cheng is smart or not! Your Uncle Cheng just lost because he was inexperienced, so he stepped into the trap they set. Fortunately, he kept a hand, and it was not too bad. ”
Zhou Tang nodded, a little scared, "Dad, a group of big men in your maintenance department can do it better than anyone else!" I think I'm still..."
Father Zhou still wanted his daughter to inherit his mantle, how could Zhou Tang be disgusted at this time.
"Hey! Those people are not worth fearing! It was Li Gong who deliberately asked Uncle Cheng to go to the Tianmu Passage alone for maintenance at night, which had violated the rules set by the ministry.
Your Uncle Cheng should have encountered something in the canopy passage, and he was delayed for a long time, but when your Uncle Cheng came out, it was already four or five o'clock the next day, and he saw that Li Gong was sleeping soundly in the monitoring room, so he didn't fulfill the report..."
Speaking of this, Father Zhou's voice gradually weakened, and he redescribed what happened, how did he seem to feel that Cheng Mu did it on purpose?
Zhou Tang blinked and saw that Father Zhou suddenly fell into a stunned state, and she asked again, "What does this have to do with Uncle Cheng not being able to give me a gift with his own hands?" ”
Get the wrong topic back on track.
Father Zhou muttered, "Huh! Huh! That's not right! Didn't this Cheng brother do this on purpose? ”
"What is deliberately not intentional?" Zhou Tang interjected childishly and asked.
Father Zhou subconsciously wanted to perfunctory the past, but when he looked back, he thought that the child would be eighteen tomorrow, and he should also unveil the veil of adult intrigue and deceitful life for her.
Father Zhou casually put the half-wet towel on his shoulder, pulled the chair from the desk in front of the window, and sat on it.
He seriously told Zhou Tang everything he saw in his eyes.
"Brother Cheng must have seen something amazing in the Sky Canopy Passage, or encountered something terrifying."
Zhou Tang squeezed the overalls bag that Cheng Mu asked Father Zhou to hand over to her, she knew that it would definitely tell her what he had experienced.
"But, Brother Cheng directly crossed the level and told the deputy minister about them, and they knew the seriousness of the situation and issued a gag order."
Father Zhou linked this incident to a serious accident that happened a few years ago, and couldn't help but speculate, "No wonder they didn't let Brother Cheng leave the maintenance department, it seems that they want to form a team and take Brother Cheng to check it again at any time." ”
In the end, he concluded, "Tut, I think Brother Cheng didn't have the upper hand, but won miserably!" If this is done well, he will have a bright future in the maintenance department. ”
Father Zhou shook his head in embarrassment, lamenting the gap between himself and the young man.
Zhou Tang touched his stomach and said, "Dad, I'm hungry!" I haven't eaten lunch yet! ”
Father Zhou touched his head and stood up, "You melon baby!" Where did you go today? If you're hungry, eat it on the street! Don't save money for your dad. ”
After saying that, he went out in a hurry to eat hot food on the stove, saying that nothing could make his daughter starving.
Zhou Tang took a deep breath and sent Father Zhou away, and she set her eyes on the overalls bag.
Reaching for the unties, the bag contained a total of three books and a notebook.
The titles of the three books are: "What is the Canopy? ", "Manual of the Protection of the Canopy", "The Secret of the Canopy".
Zhou Tang lowered his eyes, combined with what Zhou's father said, the meaning of the three books that Cheng Mu gave her was obvious.
She flipped through the three books at random, and there were notes made by Cheng Mu in the books, and she didn't find any other information that Cheng Mu wanted to convey to him for the time being.
She put the three books aside for the time being, and opened the book with "* University Award Notebook" printed on the cover.
As soon as I flipped through it, I saw that there was a page with stick figures in the whole white.
Zhou Tang spread out the notebook and put it on his lap, and looked carefully at what was drawn on it?
Be...
Four is not like?
Why does this animal look weird?
Six legs?
The left one is hairy and the right one is bald, as if what kind of crime is bad?
The messy fangs, the eyes that were deliberately painted red.
Zhou Tang couldn't imagine if she would be startled when she saw such a strange-looking animal in real life.
There was a "hiss" sound in the living room, and Zhou Tang covered the notebook with his backhand.
Sure enough, Father Zhou was calling her, "Tangtang, the food is hot, come out and eat!" ”
"Oh, I see!"
Zhou Tang stuffed the notebook into his quilt and carried three books about the canopy on the desk.
stepped out of the room with slippers and sat down on a chair, when Zhou's father turned around with a lunch box.
"Let's eat."
"The chef in the cafeteria of this maintenance department still has two brushes! It is a must to make these dishes, whether it is yesterday's braised pork or today's stewed haggis, they are all very fragrant. ”
The two of them were full of oil, and their little stomachs were bulging.
