Chapter 18 See the mother-in-law
The daughter smiled very strangely, and Mrs. Yao was a little weak-hearted and asked, "Lei Lei, what is there to hide from Mommy?" ”
Yao Yilei shook her head like a rattle, but the little girl's show-off heart couldn't help it, so she pretended to be mysterious: "Mommy, let me tell you, you must not tell Daddy." ”
"I promise not to tell him, it's a secret between the two of us." Mrs. Yao agreed.
"Actually...... Chan Chi-kun: He speaks great French. Yao Yilei said.
Mrs. Yao smiled: "Lei Lei, you taught him French, being smart and studious is an advantage, but it is not enough." ”
Yao Yilei argued: "No, my French level of half a bottle of vinegar is okay to coax those who don't understand, and I can't go on the scene at all, Chen Zikun can talk to the French fluently." ”
Mrs. Yao's heart moved, she is not the kind of lonely noblewoman, she usually reads a newspaper or something, and knows that China sent 500,000 laborers to France during the European War, and it seems that this Chen Zikun is one of these 500,000.
"Well, it seems that he has been to France and seen the world, which is good, is there anything else?" Mrs. Yao asked.
"You know the rest." Yao Yilei suddenly regretted that her mother, like herself, was also a big mouth, and it was hard to guarantee that she would not tell her father what she said, you must know that Chen Zikun had killed the Japanese, and the government wanted to be a criminal, if he showed his face, he would really have to escape.
She was afraid for a while, and quickly lifted the stubble over, fortunately, Mrs. Yao did not have the intention of asking deeply, the mother and daughter chatted for a while, Mrs. Yao said: "Then it will be decided first, I and your father are not opposed to this family matter, we will give him a chance to prove himself, and at the same time you should not live in the car factory anymore, these days the newspapers in Beijing are crazy to publish your lace news, I know that it is a political enemy against your father, I don't know how unbearable our family is." ”
Yao Yilei nodded and said, "As long as Daddy Mommy doesn't object, it's okay for me to move back in, but ...... When can we celebrate the event? ”
Mrs. Yao's willow eyebrows were upside down, and a finger poked her daughter's forehead: "You, you are not ashamed at all, that is a bit of a girl's family, you are only eighteen years old now, okay?" In this way, when Xiao Chen is admitted to university, let's talk about two years, we will give him two years, and if he can prove his strength, he will get engaged on your twentieth birthday. ”
"Two years, so long?" Yao Yilei deliberately made an exaggerated expression.
"I said why are you in such a hurry to get married as a child, do you know that it hurts to have a child, and your body will be deformed after giving birth, a country man like Xiao Chen must pay attention to having more children and more blessings, and when the time comes, you will help him give birth to children one by one, and you don't even have to hire a coachman to give birth to a lot of children, right?"
Mrs. Yao's sharp teeth are far better than her daughter's, and Yao Yilei was defeated after a short time, and finally compromised.
The daughter went back to the Ziguang depot to get her luggage, and Mrs. Yao was triumphant and called her husband to express her credit: "It's done, my daughter promised to come back to live, and I promised her to be engaged to the surname Chen in two years." ”
Vice Minister Yao was dizzy by the Japanese delegation, and when he received the call, he became angry on the spot: "Ridiculous, how can you decide the marriage matter alone." ”
Mrs. Yao said angrily: "Isn't this a delaying tactic for me, what our daughter does is a five-minute heat, and after two years, she will throw the surname Chen out of the clouds." ”
Only then did Vice Chief Yao turn his anger into joy: "Madame, Gao Jian." ”
……
In the hair alley of Xuanwu Gate, Wang Dongliang came back with a foreign car, and saw a young man in a suit at the mouth of the alley, holding a big black box, standing there sneakily, he muttered in his heart, this guy has been wandering around here for several days, is he a thief?
When I returned to the depot and reported this to Chen Zikun, Chen Zikun secretly said in his heart, could it be that the Japanese spies are eyeing me?
I went back to the house and got a pistol stuffed into the waistband of my trousers, covered it with a coat, went out of the depot through the side door, and went back to the alley, where I saw the suit-clad probe his brain, Chen Zikun held a knife in his right hand and hid it behind him, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder.
"What are you doing here?" Chen Zikun asked straight to the point.
The kid asked rhetorically, "Are you a worker at the Ziguang Depot?" ”
"I am, what?"
"Oh, I'm Ruan Mingchuan, a reporter from Beijing Daily, and I want to treat you to a meal and talk by the way."
Chen Zikun smiled dumbly, it turned out to be a reporter, and seeing his eager look, he agreed: "This thing is rare, it's okay for someone to invite you to dinner, okay." ”
Ruan Mingchuan was very happy, and went to the second meat shop at the mouth of the alley with Chen Zikun, and asked for a plate of fried pork liver, a plate of large intestines, a plate of roasted tofu, four beef tongue cakes, and a pot of two pot heads, and said with great interest: "Eat, not enough to order again." ”
Chen Zikun ate unceremoniously, Ruan Mingchuan put down the camera, took out a small notebook, took off the pen from the pocket of his suit, took a sip of the ink that moistened the tip of the pen, and said, "I want to ask you a few questions." ”
"Say." Chen Zikun was full of wine and cheeks, and he was very happy to eat.
"Your depot has recently come to a young lady surnamed Yao, right?"
Chen Zikun's heart moved, it turned out that he came for this matter, and he was still an entertainer after a long time.
"Yes, there is such one."
"Can you tell me a little bit about her life, like who she sleeps with? What time do you wake up, what do you eat and what do you play? Reporter Ruan was full of joy, and his hand holding the pen trembled a little.
Chen Zikun asked rhetorically: "Aren't you ashamed that you, a reporter, don't inquire about the Paris Peace Conference and Shandong issues, but instead find out who the eldest girl sleeps with?" ”
Reporter Ruan's face turned red, he didn't expect a coachman to be able to say such a big truth, he put down his pen and replied solemnly: "Digging up the lace news of Miss Yao's family is also a kind of battle for me, a battle for the nation and the country. ”
Chen Zikun smiled: "It's funny, tell me, why did the lace news fight?" ”
Reporter Ruan said: "Yao Qizhen, vice minister of the Ministry of Communications, like Cao Rulin, Zhang Zongxiang, and Lu Zongyu, are all leaders of the new transportation department, well-known pro-Japanese factions, traitors who are punished by everyone, and they have obtained large loans from Japan at the cost of the sovereignty of the Shandong Railway, so that they can start a civil war and slaughter the people. ”
Chen Zikun said: "Who taught you this? ”
Reporter Ruan said: "These are my mentors and idols, Mr. Shao Piaoping, editor-in-chief of Beijing Daily. ”
Chen Zikun said: "You go back and tell Mr. Shao that freedom of public opinion is right, but spying on others**, using a little girl's reputation to hit the opponent, it is not too kind, this time I will forget it for the sake of you inviting me to dinner, if there is a next time, your mother will definitely not recognize you." ”
Reporter Ruan trembled: "Are you?" ”
"I'm Chan Tsz Kun."
"Ah, you're the ......" Reporter Ruan was dumbfounded.
Miss Yao's car whizzed through the alley, and Chen Zikun left the table and said, "Thank you for the wine, see you later." "Say goodbye and leave.
Back at the depot, Yao Yilei excitedly told him that the family had agreed to the relationship between the two.
"As long as you are admitted to college and earn 100,000 yuan in three years, let us get engaged." Miss Yao jumped straight with excitement.
Betrothal...... Chen Zikun was a little confused, he had just come out of the old forest in Kanto not long ago, and he still didn't know where his ancestral home was, who his parents were, and he was about to get engaged, this ...... It's too fast.
"Why, didn't you understand?" Yao Yilei stretched out her hand and shook it in front of him.
"It's not that I don't understand, it's that the world is changing too fast." Chen Zikun smiled bitterly.
"No matter how much, now you come home with me, meet your future mother-in-law, give me some spirit, you know?" Yao Yilei happily ran back to pack her luggage.
Half an hour later, when he packed up and left the depot by car, and passed by the alley, Chen Zikun saw Ruan Mingchuan still standing there with a camera, so he stopped the car and said, "Reporter Ruan, I'll send you a piece of news, Miss Yao has moved back to the house." ”
When reporter Ruan came back to his senses and saw that the car had already driven away, he quickly picked up his camera and took a picture of the back of the car.
When I returned to the newspaper office, I found the editor-in-chief Shao Piaoping and said, the editor-in-chief Shao was furious: "When Yuan Shikai was proclaimed emperor, I wrote many articles to criticize him, but no one dared to threaten me. ”
scolded and scolded, he still asked Ruan Mingchuan not to go to the lace news with Miss Yao anymore.
"Xiao Ruan, the newspaper has a more important task entrusted to you." Editor-in-chief Shao said earnestly.
……
Chen Zikun returned to the Yao Mansion, in the past, he entered from the side door as a subordinate, but now he came as a son-in-law, his status has made a qualitative leap, and the treatment is very different, the big black iron door of the Yao family is open for him, and the people know that the young lady is back home, and they all stand at the door to greet him, which startles Chen Zikun.
"Damn, it's so grand." Chan sighed.
Yao Yilei leaned on his shoulder and smiled: "Don't you feel flattered." ”
"Mao, Lao Tzu has seen more big scenes." Chan opened the car door and jumped out of the car thinking he was very chic.
Seeing him get down from the driver's seat, Ah Fu couldn't help but feel resentful, this kid not only deceived Miss Yao, but even robbed his own coachman's errand, why didn't God kill you.
Entering the living room, Mrs. Yao sat on the sofa with a smile, and didn't get up when she saw them come in, but just pointed casually: "Here, sit down." ”
Yao Yilei noticed that her mother was dressed very magnificently today, and she hung up the diamond necklace, and her whole face was radiant and her demeanor was in all directions, probably because she wanted to create a kind of coercion on her hairy foot son-in-law
Chen Zikun didn't seem to feel any coercion, and sat down with a big grin, not squinting.
"Xiao Chen, where are you from, and who else is in the family?" Mrs. Yao seemed to ask casually, but Yao Yilei's heart hung in the air, not knowing how Chen Zikun would answer.
