"Mom, you haven't come back yet?"

Dou Xiaobao dialed Qi Yulan's phone number.

"Go back soon, we are having dinner at the Old Captain."

"Shall I pick you up?"

"Come on, your dad, your third uncle, and the others drank a lot, so it's time to send them back."

"I'll come right away, please wait a little longer."

Dou Xiaobao hung up the phone and was about to get dressed and go out.

"Brother Xiaobao, what are you doing?"

Wang Yifei heard the noise and walked out of the room.

"My parents are having dinner at the Old Captain. Third Uncle and the others drank too much. I'll pick them up."

"Wait a minute, I'll go too."

Wang Yifei said that she was going back to the room to get dressed.

"Don't go. It's dark and the road is slippery. Don't fall again."

"Didn't you say that uncle drank too much? I'm driving so you can take care of them."

"No, just stay home and go to bed. Take care of yourself during this period and don't catch a cold."

"Okay then, please take your time on the road, it's snowing."

"It's okay, I'll be careful."

Dou Xiaobao said and opened the door and went out.

……

"Lao San, that's amazing. I didn't expect you to be so good at drinking."

Xu Deli was praising Dou Zhiqing with his mouth wide open.

"My third uncle is the cadre of the alcohol test. He has been doing purchasing for these years, so of course he can drink."

Dou Baolin also drank too much.

"Really? I didn't expect your third uncle to be engaged in purchasing. Paulin, I see that your second uncle, second aunt, third uncle and third aunt all came to the store to help. Why haven't you seen your parents here?"

"My mother helps me take care of the child at home. The child is young and cannot live without others. My father is accompanying my grandma in the hospital. As she gets older, she needs someone to take care of her."

"The old lady is hospitalized? When did it happen? I really don't know if you don't tell me today. Tomorrow I will go with Lao Xiao to have a look."

Xu Deli glanced at Xiao Wenlong and said.

"No, it's a geriatric disease. It means that the cardiopulmonary function is damaged and requires hospitalization."

Dou Zhiqing said quickly.

"Third son, Lao Xu is right. We didn't go there before, but now that we know it, it's unjustifiable if we don't go. Tomorrow I'll drive, and the three of us will go to the hospital."

Xiao Wenlong followed.

"It's really not necessary. It's mainly for conditioning now. It's nothing serious."

"That's it. Come on, drink."

Xiao Wenlong raised his glass as he spoke.

"Thank you brothers for allowing me to follow you in the store and get a share of the pie. I respect you all."

Everyone raised their glasses and it became lively again.

When Dou Xiaobao arrived, Dou Zhiming and Dou Baolin were already lying on the table motionless. Only Dou Zhiqing was still talking to Xu Deli and Xiao Wenlong.

"Xiaobao, why did you come here?"

Dou Zhiqing said when he saw Dou Xiaobao coming in.

"I came here to take you back. My mother said you drank too much."

"Second sister-in-law said that on purpose. I didn't drink too much. Come on, come on, have a drink with us."

"Uncle Third, I drove here. I really can't drink."

"Where's Feifei? Why didn't she come?"

"Feifei is tired and resting at home."

"Your boss takes a break without taking a break for his assistant? How can you do this to an assistant?"

Dou Zhiqing said with a big tongue.

"She is in a special situation today, so we didn't let her come over. Can I drink with you some other time? Let's talk."

"Drink tea, drink tea. We don't drink wine and drink tea."

Xu Deli picked up the kettle and poured a cup of tea for Dou Xiaobao and placed it in front of him.

"The little girl that Mr. Dou brought over yesterday brought a few people to the store today. One of them was lucky enough to bring out a piece of ice and a piece of high ice. Lao Xiao and I accepted it."

"Oh? That girl is lucky."

"She is a classmate of Dahai. She is very beautiful."

Dou Zhiqing said on the side.

"Then you still worry about Dahai not having a girlfriend. I don't need you to worry about him at all."

"You said this, Dahai didn't come home last night."

"As long as you don't go home and have a place to live, you can't keep such a big man tied up at home, right?"

"I asked him and he said he was staying in a hotel."

"Third uncle, so Dahai will bring your younger siblings home soon."

Dou Xiaobao smiled.

"I asked them both, and they both said they drank too much and didn't know when the sea would leave."

"Third uncle, do you think this girl can tell your future father-in-law this matter?"

"That's right, Third Brother, you're asking the wrong question."

Xiao Wenlong said on the side.

"Young people are very open-minded now. What can't they do if they see the right person? Why haven't you seen your son come to the store?"

"No, I've been staying at home since I came back from my last trip to Myanmar. I just went out yesterday because of the class reunion."

"Going to Burma Shop? Why are you going there in this time of war and chaos?"

"I was deceived by a friend. If it weren't for Xiaobao, I almost wouldn't have come back."

"Third uncle, what are you talking about?"

Dou Xiaobao quickly stopped Dou Zhiqing.

"It was like that. I didn't go out when I came back. I locked myself at home every day and thought about my mistakes. Yesterday was great. I went out all night and didn't come back."

"It's great to be able to come back from Myanmar. Now I don't dare to go there again."

Xu Deli said and looked at Dou Xiaobao.

"Mr. Dou, they all say that this is a first-hand stone from a Burmese shop? Is it true or not?"

"Of course it's true."

Dou Zhiqing said on the side.

"Otherwise, how could we have found out so many good materials."

"A friend of mine contacted me for help. It is indeed a first-hand stone from a Burmese store. They are all sent directly from the Burmese store."

Dou Xiaobao said.

"Mr. Dou is an amazing friend."

"Xiaobao is doing real estate development with someone in the provincial capital, so it's normal for him to have a lot of friends."

Dou Zhiqing started to praise again.

This left Dou Xiaobao speechless.

Why hadn't he noticed before that this third uncle liked to show off so much?

Do people look like this after drinking too much?

He secretly warned himself that he would definitely not drink too much in the future.

"Mr. Dou, I heard from the third child that you have invested in the water world in our city?"

"Well, there is such a thing, make some contribution to your hometown."

"The water world project was personally spearheaded by our city's Mayor Xue. From now on, it will be difficult not to make a fortune relying on Mayor Xue's big tree. Let's bring some brothers back when we come back."

"Mr. Xu, you're welcome. I just have some spare money to invest in a project. I have nothing to say to Mayor Xue."

"Mr. Dou, I heard that you got ten places from Mayor Xue. Do you think this is good? I don't want any establishment, just an ordinary place?"

Xu Deli looked at him and said.

"My daughter has not been able to find a suitable job since she graduated. She is almost exhausted from staying at home all day long. Don't worry, I won't ask for it in vain. The price is whatever you want, and I have absolutely no objections."

"With a family business as big as Mr. Xu's, why should his daughter come out to work? Can't she just work in your store?"

"I've said it so many times, but she just won't go. She doesn't like it."

"The water world isn't a nice place either. Can she go there?"

"It's better than staying at home every day, right?"

"I wonder how old Mr. Xu's daughter is this year?"

"Twenty-two. I haven't been out since graduation. I don't know what to think."

"It's easy to talk about. There are just a few places left, so just let her go. Just tell my dad when she comes back."

"Thank you so much, Mr. Dou, I respect you."

Xu Deli said, picking up the wine glass.

"You're welcome, Mr. Xu. Come back and ask your daughter to help in the store. I'm considering asking Brother Baolin to open another branch in the Cultural Street over at Water World."

"Are you planning to use public money for personal gain? I heard that Baolin already has a staff."

"I'm here to help boost the local economy."

Dou Xiaobao smiled.

"Just because of the current reputation of Gambling Stone Square, it can bring a lot of tourists."

"I believe what you say. Hasn't the store been full of people these past two days?"

"The main reason is that the materials in the store are so good, it's almost like picking up money. I couldn't help but buy two pieces."

Xiao Wenlong said on the side.

"How is it? Have you gained anything?"

Dou Xiaobao asked.

"One piece was made of ice, and the other piece was made of bricks. It was just thrown away."

"Isn't this enough? Let everyone here tell you how much money you made from that piece of material?"

Xu Deli said with some jealousy.

"I bought a bigger one and made thousands of dollars."

Xiao Wenlong chuckled.

"Okay, Mr. Xiao, ordinary people may not be able to earn that much in their lifetime."

Dou Zhiqing looked at him.

"Just a little fun."

"The old Xiao family has a great cause. Don't be deceived by his appearance."

"Old Xu, if you don't do this, my little family fortune is nothing in front of Mr. Dou."

"Okay, stop bragging, I'm starting to get jealous. Have you had a drink? Let's go home after that? We have to open tomorrow."

Dou Zhiqing said on the side.

"It hasn't been open for two days? Why is it still open?"

Xiao Wenlong asked.

"These two days are a trial opening. Isn't tomorrow the eighth day of the Lunar New Year? Let's put up firecrackers and officially open."

"Then I will send you two flower baskets tomorrow."

"No, our store won't change its name or reopen, and we won't accept those things. I'll ask for your help when I come back and open a branch in Wenhua Street."

Dou Xiaobao said.

"Tomorrow is all about setting off some firecrackers. You guys should be busy as you should. I'll be hosting tonight and I'll still be here. We won't go home until we get drunk."

"Then I will remember it. I will definitely come over tomorrow."

"Okay, let's stop here today, shall we? Let's go."

Dou Zhiqing stood up unsteadily as he spoke.

Dou Xiaobao hurried over and helped his father up.
