Greenery Ace No. 9

Chapter 308 Save Me Some Face
Seeing Wang Dali making trouble, Zhou Zheng turned sideways quickly, turned around and made a motion to silence Wang Dali, and at the same time covered the microphone of the mobile phone with his hand, and said to Wang Dali in a low voice: "Shhh—call my old man, Keep your voice down, I don't want him to know that I'm going home and I want to surprise him."

Wang Dali glanced at him: "You have quite a lot of tricks, kid."

He sat back in his seat, continued to eat snacks, and stopped messing with Zhou Zheng.

Zhou Zheng sat down on the chair, took his hand away from the microphone of the mobile phone, and then said with a playful smile: "When did I forget you, old man? I always remember it in my heart, but I have been busy recently, so I can't make a phone call." Time, you see, I will call you as soon as I have time, so don't be angry, old man, be happy."

"Am I happy to have you, my son who is causing me trouble all day long? Tell me honestly, if you have caused trouble again, I can tell you, if you really cause trouble, carefully I will expose your skin!"

Zhou Ming's tone on the phone did not show Zhou Zheng any mercy.

With a "gudong", Zhou Zheng swallowed a mouthful of saliva in embarrassment. He leaned forward and put his right hand next to the phone, for fear that Wang Dali behind him would hear the conversation between himself and his father.

"It's so easy to call you, so don't train me, save me some face."

"You little kid still knows how to save face!"

Zhou Zheng smiled wryly and shook his head: "That's right, your son and I are also famous people outside, and we also want to save face.

By the way, Dad, have you eaten yet? "

Zhou Zheng asked this question because he wanted to test Zhou Ming's tone. If Zhou Ming didn't eat, he would tell Zhou Ming directly that he was going home, and he wanted to bring two friends back, so that Zhou Ming could prepare some good food and treat himself. friend.

If Zhou Ming had already eaten, then Zhou Zheng decided to give him a surprise by not telling him that he was going home for the time being. When he got home, he would cook a delicious meal for Wang Dali and Zheng Bin himself. .

Hearing Zhou Zheng's question, Zhou Ming's tone seemed to be a little gentler: "Good boy, you still have a little conscience, and you know how to care about me."

Zhou Zheng chuckled: "Don't you understand me, your son? Don't dare to say anything else, you have plenty of conscience."

"Don't be poor with me. I haven't eaten yet. I'm going to hang the ceiling for Uncle Li's house today. It's a day's work. I'll go back to eat after I finish hanging the ceiling."

Zhou Zheng suddenly felt a burst of sadness, his father really worked so hard, in order to provide for his unworthy son to go to Laichuan No. [-] Middle School, he was still working at this point.

"You can't finish the work. You are not young. You have to eat on time. You tell Uncle Li, and you just say that today's work will be done here first, and you will continue to do it tomorrow."

"You kid knows what a fart, someone else has arranged for someone else, take care of yourself, remember to call me if you don't have money, just hang up like this."

"Hey - hello!"

"Dudu..."

Before Zhou Zheng could react, the other end of the phone had already hung up.

Zhou Zheng frowned, looked at the handset of the mobile phone, and was stunned for a long time.

Seeing that Zhou Zheng stopped calling, Wang Dali came over again: "What did you whisper to your old man? The old man knows we are going, what is he going to do for us?"

Seeing Wang Dali's expectant face, Zhou Zheng suddenly wanted to laugh, and couldn't bear to hit him, but he had to tell him the truth, organized his words, Zhou Zheng deliberately put on a sad face, and said with a long sigh: "Oh! Don't mention it, let alone cooking, I probably won't even have a mouthful of porridge when I go back."

"Ah? Why?" Although Wang Dali ate a lot of bread and snacks, those things were not a meal after all, and when he ate as much as he wanted, he was looking forward to having a good meal at Zhou Zheng's house, so when he heard the news, He suddenly tensed up.

Zhou Zheng shook his head, showing a heartbroken look: "My dad is still working in someone's house, and he hasn't even eaten dinner. Do you think I'm ashamed to let him go home and prepare dinner for us at this time?"

Wang Dali seemed to have received a huge blow, and suddenly fell backwards, leaning against the chair exhausted, and muttered to himself in a low voice: "Then what should we do? Do we still have to go hungry after we go to your house?" ?"

Seeing his appearance, Zheng Bin and Zhou Zheng covered their mouths and snickered at the same time. After laughing, Zhou Zheng adjusted his sitting posture, and while looking at the scenery outside the window, he comforted Wang Dali behind him: "No matter what time it comes, you will always be there. Don't despair, don't worry, I'll serve you some noodles when I get home, and I promise you won't starve, you can eat as many bowls as you want."

Wang Dali covered his face with his hands in pain, looking as if he was dying of regret: "Oh! If I had known this, I would not have come. There are so many delicious foods in the night market in Anyi Town. Why do you think I am so obsessed with you? What? I’m so sorry! Who can save me!”

Because Wang Dali was too excited, his voice was a bit high when he said these words, and the other noisy passengers opened their eyes and stared at him with disgust.

Zheng Bin and Zhou Zheng hurriedly coughed to remind Wang Dali to pay attention to the influence.

It was only then that Wang Dali realized that he had lost his composure. He quickly adjusted his sitting posture, stared at the scenery outside the window with a serious face, and then said nothing, like a gentleman with a gentlemanly demeanor.

Zheng Bin and Zhou Zheng couldn't help laughing after seeing Wang Dali's appearance.

The long-distance bus drove for another ten minutes, and the mountain road became more rugged, which forced the driver to slow down to ensure the safety of the long-distance bus.

There was silence in the long-distance bus, most of the passengers were resting and recharging their energy, only Zhou Zheng and Wang Dali, none of them slept, all three of them leaned against the window, watching the scenery outside the window intently, although The night has gradually enveloped the entire land, but with the light of the stars and the moon, the nearby trees and the distant mountains and forests can still be seen clearly.

After more than an hour, the coach finally stopped at the entrance of the village where Zhou Zheng's family was located.

As soon as the door of the long-distance bus was opened, Zhou Zheng jumped out of the car eagerly carrying his bag. Wang Dali and Zheng Bin followed Zhou Zheng with their bags and got out of the car as well.

Because Zhou Zheng was in a good mood, he didn't run to the village immediately after getting off the car. He stood by the side of the road, watched the coach leave, and then waved goodbye to the coach behind him.

The big locust tree at the entrance of the village caught the attention of Wang Dali and Zheng Bin. They put their bags on the ground and walked around the big locust tree twice.

"This tree must be hundreds of years old?" Zheng Bin looked at the crown of the tree and asked with a sigh.

Zhou Zheng put his bag on his shoulder, looked up and down the big locust tree, and said with some pride: "It's probably about the same. I heard from the old people in the village that when they were young, the tree was already this big."

Wang Dali knocked on the trunk: "In this way, this tree is more than 100 years old."

"It's really good." Zheng Bin took two steps back, looked at the big locust tree and expressed his feelings.

The three of them chatted around the big locust tree for a while, and the more they chatted, the more interested the three of them became. Originally, the three of them could continue chatting, but Wang Dali's stomach growled disobediently, making the three of them laugh.

Zhou Zhengyi waved his hand: "Come with me, I'll get you two noodles when I get home, enough noodles."

Wang Dali immediately turned his face into tears: "Do you really want to eat noodles?"

Zheng Bin doesn't care about what to eat: "It doesn't matter what you eat, as long as you can eat something warm."

"Look at other people's consciousness, learn from it."

Zhou Zheng pointed to Zheng Bin and said to Wang Dali.

Hearing Zhou Zheng's nonchalant words, Wang Dali immediately became angry, and he raised his foot to kick Zhou Zheng.

After Zheng Bin saw it from the side, he wanted to step forward to stop him, but his movement was too slow. Wang Dali's leg had already been raised, and he kicked Zhou Zheng hard.

Fortunately, Zhou Zheng reacted quickly, he dodged, dodged Wang Dali's flying feet, then quickly started, and ran into the village at high speed.

Wang Dali followed behind relentlessly, swearing and swearing, stepped on his feet, and chased after him.

Zheng Bin smiled wryly, and followed slowly. He really had no choice but to let the two of them mess around.

The three of them ran into the village chasing each other like this.

It was already dinner time, and every household in the village had already started to eat dinner. There was no one on the street at all. After entering the village, the three of them walked on the main street for a while without encountering a single person.

"Why is there no one?" Wang Dali asked curiously.

Zhou Zheng, who was walking in front, glanced back at him: "At this time, every household is eating dinner, who is free to run around outside, do you think everyone is like you, like a nocturnal ghost when there is no business. "

"Zhou Zheng! My patience has a limit, don't challenge my limit!"

Wang Dali finally became extremely angry and issued a final warning.

Zhou Zheng immediately faltered: "Brother Dali, don't be angry, I'm just kidding with you, what do you want to eat, I'll cook it for you myself later!"

Wang Dali glanced at him: "If you are not angry with me, I will burn incense!"

Zheng Bin walked at the back, seeing the performance of the two people, he could only shake his head helplessly, and couldn't help regretting, shouldn't I come this time?

The three of them walked for a while, and ran into a seven or eight-year-old boy head-on. As soon as the boy saw Zhou Zheng, he greeted him happily.

"Brother, why are you back? The reservoir at the east end of the village is dry, and there are a lot of fish. I am worried that no one will dare to fish with me. Let's go tomorrow?"

The little boy walked up to Zhou Zheng and said excitedly.

Zhou Zheng patted his head, frowning: "Be honest, boy, is the reservoir a place where you can play casually? Don't cause trouble if you don't have my skills! Be careful, I will tell your father to clean up your skin !"

The little boy pouted immediately, and said with an aggrieved face: "If you don't let me go, I won't go, why complain!"

Wang Dali and Zheng Bin, who were walking behind Zhou Zheng, were both amused by the little boy's appearance.
