Chapter 7 Rich Relatives
Tao Lei was actually Lin Weiguo's niece, which Tang Zheng didn't expect, but the next trip was a lot easier.
"Are you visiting your uncle?" Although Tao Lei is shy, she no longer rejects Tang Zheng, she basically answers all questions, and has no defense at all. ”
Yes. Tang Zheng inquired about Wei Guo's past, and it could be seen that Tao Lei admired her uncle who was a special soldier.
"Although my uncle has been in prison, he is a good man." Tao Lei's eyes flashed with little stars, and said, "I went to college last year, or my aunt paid for it, and this year my uncle was released from prison and gave me a lot of money, saying that the family finally had a student one day, and I must continue to study." ”
Tang Zheng sighed when she heard it, if she knew that her uncle was dead, she didn't know what the reaction would be, more than an hour's drive was spent in this kind of chatter, when she was in the county seat, Tang Zheng bought several large bags of gifts, if it wasn't for Tao Lei to accompany him, he could have used the watch space, and now he can only carry it.
When Tang Zheng walked into the village, it was already dark, and after turning on the trail, there were no street lights, but Tao Lei was very familiar with the environment here, and walked quickly, because her mother married into the village.
"Auntie, my uncle's friend has come to see him." Standing in front of the 30-year-old dilapidated bungalows, Tao Lei happily patted on the wooden door.
"Is it Leilei? Got a holiday? It was only two seconds before a woman's answer rang out.
"Sister-in-law, I'm a friend of Brother Wei Guo." The wooden door opened, and when Tao Lei finished speaking, Tang Zheng took a step forward and greeted politely.
"Don't stand, come in and sit." Sister-in-law Lin wiped her hands on her apron, then grabbed Tao Lei and said, "Don't go home, I'll cook for you." ”
"No, these are the toys and snacks I bought for the stone." Tao Lei opened her backpack, took out a toy car and a large bag of snacks in a plastic bag and stuffed them into Sister-in-law Lin's hand, and then ran away quickly, "I'll come over tomorrow." ”
"This child, I've told her a few times, but she didn't listen to it, this must be another food expense saved." Sister-in-law Lin sighed, and then introduced Tang Zheng into the house.
"You have a good relationship." After looking at this ordinary, well-dressed but neat woman, looking at the wrinkles on her face, Tang Zheng smiled and said, "On the way back, Tao Lei didn't say a few words about her own family, it was all about you and Weiguo." ”
"Her mother doesn't talk about it, she hasn't eaten yet, I'll make it for you." Sister-in-law Lin sighed and didn't answer.
"Where's the stone?" Tang Zheng didn't refuse, noticed a shadow cast under the window of a certain room, and said, "It can't be studying, right?" I remember he was in the fourth grade. ”
"Wei Guo wants him to be admitted to university." Sister-in-law Lin explained and shouted, "Your uncle is here when the stone comes out." ”
"Hello uncle." The little guy was obviously afraid of his mother, and when he heard her speak, he ran out of the house with a smile and shouted Tang Zheng, and said hurriedly, "Is Sister Lei Lei back?" I went to see her. ”
"Mess up, wait on the side." Sister-in-law Lin slapped the stone on the head, and then Tang Zheng led it into the house, picked up the kettle, and said while cooking water, "It's really unfortunate that you came, Weiguo went to see his comrades-in-arms, and he has been gone for almost ten days, and he hasn't even made a phone call, and I can't contact him." ”
"It's okay, I'm just here to see." Tang Zheng tried his best to keep his expression flat, but his heart still couldn't help twitching, if Wei Guo didn't come back, what would happen to their mother and son.
"Dad is playing missing again, it's so annoying, and the trick is being jailed again." The stone spat out the stone and muttered, obviously not having a good relationship with his father.
"What do you say?" Smack, Sister-in-law Lin was angry and slapped the stone on the back, no wonder, Lin Weiguo has been in prison for several years, and he hasn't seen him a few times, so the child naturally has no image of him.
"You watch TV first, I'll cook." Sister-in-law Lin pulled the stone out of the house, went to the wing, took some money to the stone, and asked him to go to the village commissary to buy vegetables and wine.
Tang Zheng looked at the room, looking at the bulky TV, it is estimated that it has been more than ten years, and he also listened to the words of Sister-in-law Lin who told Xiaoshi to buy good wine, and couldn't help but sigh, Sister-in-law treats people really warmly, if it is replaced by an ordinary person, I probably think that Wei Guo is not at home, then it can still let you into the house, after all, it is not safe at night. ,
"I remember that Lao Lin exchanged millions, where did the money go?" Tang Zheng was silent, he didn't want to ask Sister-in-law Lin about these personal questions, just help silently.
Lin Weiguo was helped by his comrades-in-arms when he was in prison before, and now he has exchanged money - naturally he will also help other comrades-in-arms, as for the rest, except for part of his wife's treatment, the rest is all saved, and he is used to being poor, and he wants to save it when he has money, so that his son can go to school and marry his daughter-in-law.
"Young man, you haven't asked your Mingyu yet, how did you and Wei Guo meet?" Sister-in-law Lin was also looking at the young man in front of her, since it was brought back by Tao Lei, it shouldn't be a lie, and a sportswear highlighted his spirit, she didn't think that her family's Lao Lin had the opportunity to meet this kind of young man.
"That's a long story, my uncle and Brother Wei Guo are comrades-in-arms, and of course I know him very well." Tang Zheng made an excuse, just confess to Lao Lin next time, as for now, he casually said some of Lin Weiguo's habits and family trivialities that he usually mentioned, which dispelled Sister-in-law Lin's doubts.
"According to Brother Weiguo's age, there should be a child at home, right?" Tang Zheng was puzzled and said, "I've never heard him say it." ”
"Hey, that's the eldest son, since Wei Guo was in prison, that kid felt ashamed and went to the city to find a job." As soon as Sister-in-law Lin mentioned her eldest son, her face was full of sadness, "This looks like the boss is not small, and there is no object." ”
Tang Zheng was silent, and twenty minutes later, Sister-in-law Lin had already hurriedly and neatly served dinner.
"It's hearty, but you don't need to drink it." Tang Zheng looked at the dishes on the table, and beckoned Xiao Shi to eat with a smile, the little guy's gaze staring at the fried meat had betrayed him.
"I'm not hungry." The stone was not right, and the sound of swallowing saliva was so loud that he was embarrassed. ”
Sister-in-law, don't save money, spend it when you need to, buy more nutritious things for your children to eat, and look at the figure of this bean sprout. Tang Zheng still couldn't hold back, got up and pulled the stone and sat beside him, and said, "Brother Wei Guo is so distressed when he sees it." ”
"Yes." Sister-in-law Lin responded, but Tang Zheng knew that she definitely didn't put it on her body, watching the stone happily eating scrambled eggs with leeks Tang Zheng touched his head, and a smile overflowed at the corner of his mouth.
Sister-in-law Lin glared at the stone, but she was a lot relieved in her heart, Tang Zheng's caring eyes were definitely sincere and not contrived, he was indeed Lao Lin's friend.
Sleeping in a new quilt that was obviously not covered by anyone at night, Tang Zheng sighed again, he couldn't bear to baboon his sister-in-law's kindness.
The next morning, after Tang Zheng left a phone call, he said goodbye and left.
"That's a friend of your man? It's too small, isn't it? As soon as Tang Zheng left, the women in the neighborhoods came to visit the door, gossiping and gossiping, "The young man is very energetic, and he is not badly dressed, but unfortunately he walked to the town to take a car, and his shoes were dirty, why don't you take a taxi?" ”
"You can get seventeen or eighteen yuan for a taxi pick-up." An aunt wearing a red hair card on her head said, "But if Sister-in-law Lin had said it earlier, I would have asked Junzi's aunt to drive her for a while, and she would have stopped by anyway." ”
Aunt Haika successfully turned the topic to her, showing off her relatives, "Her car is called Ma Dagui died, more than 200,000." ”
"Auntie, where is Tang Zheng?" Tao Lei ran over after eating breakfast and hurriedly finished her housework, but she still didn't run into Tang Zheng.
"Did your mom dump everything on you again?" The aunt with the hairpin on her head saw Lei Lei and immediately laughed, this girl has a good appearance and character, and she has long wanted to propose to her son, but her mother wants too much bride price, "By the way, what does that kid do?" Do you know? ”
"Students at key universities." They are all acquaintances, so Tao Lei is not much shy, and she has a good image of Tang Zheng, so she told him about maintaining order at the train station, giving up his seat, and even making up his own ticket behind his back.
"Is there really such a fool?" Aunt Hairpin was stunned and asked, "You're not kidding, are you?" What about more than a hundred? ”
"He also beat up a scoundrel who pestered a girl and a drunk driver in the town, Tang Zheng is a good person." Tao Lei said uncertainly, "He seems to be a multimillionaire." ”
"You are a multimillionaire and you are a radish planted in the ground, just pull one of them."
Aunt Haika couldn't get used to hearing Tao Lei praise Tang Zheng, so she sneered, "He should like you, otherwise why wouldn't he make money for you." ”,
"It's all nonsense, if you like it, why didn't the young man disappear and leave directly?" Another aunt raised a different opinion, and they wanted to argue, when they saw the stone running out with a panicked face and sweating profusely on his forehead.
"Mom, no."
"What's wrong?" Sister-in-law Lin was taken aback.
"Lost something?" Aunt Haika looked remorseful, patted her leg and said, "I'll just say, that kid looks like a dog, and it's not a good thing at first glance." ”
The other women were also alarmed, and just as they were about to ask, they were interrupted by a loud roar from the stone.
"No, money, a lot of money." When the stone had finished speaking, he ran into the house.
The aunts were dumbfounded, they didn't know which one was singing, Sister-in-law Lin wanted to stop her housemate, but the gossip soul of the aunts was burning, and she rushed into the room directly.
Suddenly, there was an exclamation in the room, and as soon as Sister-in-law Lin walked into the room, she saw the big travel bag on the ground, and the zipper opened at this time, revealing bundles of chestnuts inside, and there were hundreds of bundles of safflower flowers.
"My mother, how much money does this have?" Aunt Haika's eyes were green, and she almost subconsciously reached out to grab it.
The stone was faster than everyone else and swooped down on the travel bag.
"How did you find the stone?" Sister-in-law Lin asked, walked over and closed the zipper.
"I ate the snack my uncle brought, and I saw a note inside that said there was money under the bed, and I saw the bulging travel bag."
"Is there that young man's phone? Ask quickly, maybe someone accidentally dropped it, and we can't take other people's things. "Aunt Kafa doesn't believe that someone would give so much money to others for no reason these days.
"I'm going to call the commissary." Sister-in-law Lin also felt that this matter was very tricky.
"What kind of commissary are you going to, using my phone." Aunt Facafu couldn't wait, took out a mobile phone and handed it to Sister-in-law Lin, seeing that she found a note and dialed the number, the other aunts were also staring at her, and the husband didn't dare to take a breath.
As soon as Tang Zheng left the village, the phone rang, and when he saw that it was an unfamiliar number, he guessed who the caller was.
"Hey, hello." Tang Zheng stood next to a telephone pole, casually browsing the various small advertisements plastered on it.
"Brother Tang, you lost the money in our house."
Aunt Fakafu glanced at Sister-in-law Lin and said in a low voice, "How can anyone ask such a question, what if the money is not his?" ”
"It's not lost, it's for you, that's the salary of the country." Tang Zheng was going to die of annoyance in order to find an excuse to give money, and he was now afraid of this kind of more serious person.
"What salary can have that much money?" Sister-in-law Lin obviously didn't believe it, "I know that you want to help us, but you really don't need to, the money Weiguo earns is enough for us to spend." ”
"Didn't Brother Wei Guo bring back millions before? Here's the rest. Tang Zheng said lightly, "If you have any doubts, wait for him to come back and ask, but don't save money, spend it if you can, and give your eldest son a daughter-in-law first." ”
"Millions?" The hairpin aunt who listened with her ears sideways muttered, glanced at the other aunts, and secretly said that Lin Weiguo, a veteran who had no interest, did not expect to be in prison for a few years, and sat down with a rich friend by example.
"But Brother Tang ......" Sister-in-law Lin was relieved to hear that he even knew about the money brought back by Weiguo.
"As for Lu Fu, don't worry, the number is left for you, call me if you have trouble, I'll be there soon." Tang Zheng heard someone muttering on the phone, but he didn't care, it was just right to spread out, and the fastest update of the country should also be looked down upon by the people in the village, erasing the shadow that he had been in prison, and Tang Zheng felt very uncomfortable at the thought that even his son didn't recognize him.
"By the way, buy a mobile phone for Tao Lei, otherwise I won't be able to contact you." Tang Zheng sighed and said, "If it's okay, I'll hang up." ”
"Is this guy a fool?" Aunt Haika's eyes lit up, she looked at her travel bag, and said, "Count quickly." ”
"Two million, it's written on it." Stone shook the note in his hand and said, "Mom, I want to eat chicken." ”
"I just said that Tang Zheng is a good person." The simple Tao Lei didn't care how many Yue there were at all, but was happy because Tang Zheng proved his character to the villagers.
"By the way, sister-in-law Lin, your eldest son is not small, I will introduce him to a few objects to choose, he looks very handsome, and the girls must be the reason." Aunt Hairpin smiled all over her face and began to do homely work.
"Didn't you say before that my father was in prison, and the rabbit wanted to marry my brother?" The stone was stupid and didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, but it embarrassed Aunt Haika, "You just said that Uncle Tang is not a good person." ”
"What nonsense." Aunt Haika laughed dryly, diverted the topic, and continued to discuss the marriage of Sister-in-law Lin's son, "Hurry up and let your son come back, go on a blind date first." ”
They are all neighbors, and Sister-in-law Lin can't get rid of them, so she can only laugh perfunctorily, but she suddenly has a feeling of puff in her heart.
"Sister, the fries, they're delicious." Stone stuffed a bag of fries to Tao Lei, and whispered, "I'll kill the chicken later, pick the biggest one." ”
