Chapter 43: Family Reunion
During the meal, because Luo Qun accompanied Fang Xu to drink some wine, the car back could only be driven by Xiang Chunmei.
After Xiang Chunmei sent Luo Qun home, she didn't go into Luo Qun's house to accompany Luo Qun to stay, so Luo Qun went back to his house after resting early, because Luo Qun received Xiao Qiang's news during the day, they had already dealt with the affairs of their hometown, and they had already bought tickets and set off this morning, and it took more than 20 hours to go to the ancient city, and it was about early in the morning, Luo Qun had to go to the station to pick it up, so he had to go to bed early.
After taking a bath, Luo Qun set the alarm clock, took his mobile phone and followed Xiang Chunmei in the quilt for a while, and fell asleep with the strength of the wine at dinner.
At three o'clock in the morning, the alarm clock rang on time, Luo Qun was awakened suddenly, and then rubbed his face vigorously, got up to wash and change clothes, and when he cleaned up, he also recovered his spirits, and when he went out, there was a Toyota Alpha waiting at the door of the house.
This is the car arranged by Luo Qun in advance, and the driver is also the company's driver, but Luo Qun is the boss, and it is normal to ask the company's driver to work overtime occasionally.
"Lao Li, go to the small supermarket to pick up someone first."
Luo Qun did not get into the back seat, but got into the co-pilot, opened a pack of cigarettes and lit a refreshment by himself, and threw the rest to the driver Lao Li, although it is said that Luo Qun is also given enough overtime pay and extra hard work, but after all, it is to get people out of the bed in the early morning to drive, and it is not too much to give a little favor.
"Thank you, boss."
Lao Li, a driver in his forties, looked at the cloud cigarette in his hand and happily stuffed it into his pocket, the boss sat in his car, for safety reasons, he naturally did not dare to drive while smoking.
Endeavor company to employees salary and benefits are good, but also to some executives with cars, but will not give executives with drivers, even the former Luo Qun to the present, are also their own drive, but Endeavor company still has a small car class, with eight drivers, business vehicles and sedans, as well as a Coaster and two buses for activities, all of which are under their small car management.
Their car class belongs to the company office, and Lao Li is the deputy squad leader of the car class, responsible for this Alpha, there is also an A8, which is dedicated to Luo Qun and Wang Meili for business trips or business.
However, Lao Li has been in the Endeavor Company for more than ten years, and it is rare to see Luo Qun and Wang Meili in his car, but he receives more foreign guests, Lao Li is also a little curious about this familiar and unfamiliar little boss, taking the opportunity to look at the reflector, from time to time will look at Luo Qun twice, so young to grasp the unimaginable wealth of ordinary people, but usually so low-key, so that Lao Li can't help but feel both strange and admired, thinking of his son who is already a teenager, not good at studying but only knows how to play games, It's really more popular than people.
Luo Qun didn't finish a cigarette, the car had already arrived at the door of the small supermarket, Chang Juemin, who had already received the news, found the car lights outside, and had already opened the door and walked out, wearing a new down jacket, looking very good and excited.
After Chang Juemin closed the door of the small supermarket, Luo Qun motioned for Chang Juemin to sit in the back seat, and said with a smile while instructing Chang Juemin to fasten his seat belt:
"Uncle Chang, your new clothes look much more energetic than usual."
Chang Juemin sat in the front row of a separate comfortable leather seat, looking at the luxurious decoration in the car, so nervous that he didn't know how to put his hands and feet, and when he heard Luo Qun talk about his new down jacket, he turned his attention and said with a smile:
"I haven't been back for so many years, and now I'm about to see them, I'm always a little nervous, my wife and children have been worried about whether I'm doing well outside, even if it's not good, I always have to show them the good in front of them, so as not to let them know and worry, this dress is still I asked my little sister to help me buy it online, I went to the store to see it, the same clothes, the store costs more than 800, and the online is only more than 500, which is a lot more cost-effective."
"That's true, after all, the things in the store, people still need to calculate the cost of rent and labor, which is not comparable to the online."
Lao Li didn't know what the relationship between the old man who had just gotten in the car and his little boss was, but seeing that the little boss was quite respectful of the old man, and deliberately found a topic to let the old man relax, he also interjected very timely:
"But things on the Internet, after all, we can't see real things, like us who are old, it's hard to pick a good one, it's easy to be deceived by bad merchants, if you really want to buy it online, you still have to rely on young people to help us pick it."
Chang Juemin nodded again and again, the journey to the station was deliberately carried by Luo Qun and Lao Li in this way, you and I consumed it sentence by sentence, and Chang Juemin also got rid of the tension on his body, leaving only the longing and expectation for the reunion of his family.
In the early morning, there are not many cars on the way to the station, you can't see a car for a minute or two, Lao Li is also an experienced old driver, the car is also fast and stable, less than half past three, the car is parked at the pick-up entrance of the station's private car, there are a few cars parked there, it should also be to pick up people.
The temperature of the air conditioner in the car was a little too warm, Luo Qun was blown a little sleepy, so he got out of the car and lit a cigarette, blowing the cold wind to sober himself up, seeing the boss get out of the car, Lao Li and Chang Juemin naturally did not stay in the car longer, and got out of the car together, Lao Li accompanied Luo Qun to smoke, and Chang Juemin looked at the small exit with an eager face, often when waiting for this, you don't only have so many minutes, but it is the most boiling, those minutes, can make you feel like you have survived for a few years.
Fortunately, God didn't joke with them, the train arrived at the station on time, and within two minutes of the station's voice broadcast, I saw a few sparse passengers walking out of the station, Chang Juemin poked his head to look in, but he never saw the person he wanted to see, and he couldn't help but be a little anxious.
Until he saw a tall and sturdy young man with a big bag on his back, pulling a large box in one hand and a hemp bag in the other, followed by two women, an old man and a young woman, the young woman holding the old woman in one hand and a large box in the other.
Chang Juemin's eyes were a little moist, and he raised his hands excitedly and waved them, wanting to scream something, but as if his throat was dumb, he couldn't scream, he only felt that his nose was a little sore, and it became more and more sore, until he squatted on the ground, hid his face and cried bitterly.
A person suddenly squatted down and cried bitterly, which attracted everyone's sideways attention, and naturally attracted the attention of Ai Meifeng and the three who were sighing at the scenery on the train, Ai Meifeng looked at the figure of the person squatting on the ground, and muttered:
"Old!"
As she spoke, Ai Meifeng broke free of Feng Cuicui's hands and walked over there quickly, and Chang Juemin also stood up.
The older generation's subtle expression of affection made them not embrace each other warmly in front of the public like young people, but just held each other's already extremely rough hands, with tears in their eyes but couldn't say a word.
Luo Qun's eyes also felt a little sour, but he didn't want to go up and disturb the couple who hadn't seen him for many years, so he could only walk towards Xiao Qiang and them, and forcibly pulled out a smile:
"Brother Qiang, sister-in-law, it's hard work on the road, welcome to the ancient city."
Saying that, he also helped Xiao Qiang take over the big suitcase in his hand, and helped unload the sack he was carrying, the boss did it himself, and Lao Li naturally went up to help with the insight and helped send their luggage to the car.
To tell the truth, Xiao Qiang has always been apprehensive about coming to the ancient city, although he knew that it was unlikely, but he was also afraid that Luo Qun was really a liar, but when he saw Luo Qun specially come to pick them up, Xiao Qiang's heart was completely let go.
"Xiaoqun, thank you so much, I don't even know what to say."
Xiao Qiang just touched his own head, and made up his mind that he must repay Luo Qun well in the future.
At this time, Chang Juemin and Ai Meifeng had already finished complaining to each other, and walked over hand in hand, Xiao Qiang saw Chang Juemin, and quickly called Dad, and Feng Cuicui also called.
"You are Cuicui, good, good, grown up, all grown up, good boy, growing stronger and stronger, you take good care of your mother at home, dad thank you."
Chang Juemin was as happy as anything, patted Xiao Qiang's strong arm hard, held Feng Cuicui's hand, handed it to Xiao Qiang, and said sincerely:
"Cuicui, Xiaoqiang is a good boy, but I was dragged down by my father, you don't dislike marrying into my Chang family, Dad is very grateful to you, you called me Dad, I Chang Juemin should go down today, Dad has nothing to give you, Dad is sorry for you, but Dad still hopes that the two of you can live a good life in the future, and you will always be safe, if Xiaoqiang bullies you, you will come to me, and I will clean him up for you."
"Okay, Dad, thank you, Dad."
Women are more emotional, and Feng Cuicui was also moved by Chang Juemin's simple and sincere words.
"Let's go, let's get in the car first, let's talk about it when we go back to the place, wait for tomorrow, no, tonight, I'll arrange the arrangement, let's have a good drink."
At this time, there were already many people around them who stopped, looking at the crying and laughing here, stopping to watch the excitement, and even a few of them had already started to take out their mobile phones to record videos, Luo Qun reminded loudly, after all, this is a public place, and it is not good to delay for too long, thinking about settling the family first, this is the time when they need their own family to communicate well, and it is not good for Luo Qun and him to be caught in the middle.
"Yes, yes, let's go, go home, I've rented the house, let's go home and have a look."
