Ximenqing loves Wusong [Water Margin]

It was snowing too much, and the car was hard to drive, so the two of us went to squeeze the subway together.

During Chinese New Year, there are a lot of people on the subway.

When getting in the car, Erlang held me in his arms, for fear that I might be squeezed.I got in the car and found a place to stand. He held the handrail with one hand and put his arms around my waist with the other: "If you're tired from standing, just lean on me for a rest. It's still far away."

There were two old women next to us, they looked at us several times, they got together and murmured, pointing at us with their fingers.

Originally, I was a little embarrassed by Erlang's protection, but I asked them to look at it like this, but instead I hugged Erlang's waist generously, leaned in his arms and closed my eyes to rest.The two old women stopped pointing here.

When I got off the subway in the northern suburbs, he took me to the supermarket and bought a bunch of snacks and toys to bring with me.

I said, "For Chinese New Year, does the child have enough clothes? Do I need to buy a pair of cotton shoes?"

Erlang scratched his head: "Yo,? I really didn't think of this,? I should buy it,? But I don't know what size he wears."

I asked the salesperson, "Are there any cotton clothes and shoes for a five-year-old boy?"

Erlang interjected: "This kid is bigger than normal kids, five years old looks like eight years old."

I said: "It seems to be up to you,? Let's choose according to the eight-year-old child."

After the two of them finished shopping, they went to the orphanage.

When I arrived at the orphanage, I saw all the children in the room were led by the nurses to sing and dance and share candy. Only one child was sitting in the corner, playing with a small iron slingshot in his hand.

Erlang walked over and patted his head, and called out, "Xiao Tie."

Xiao Tie raised his head to look at him, grinned, and turned to see me, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he called out, "Father!"

I froze for a moment, bent down and looked into his eyes and asked, "Hanhan, is that you?"

The little guy opened his arms and hugged my neck, but he didn't let go.

Erlang was completely stunned.

Erlang and I asked the director of the orphanage for a leave of absence, saying that we would take Hanhan home for the New Year, and the director agreed.

Along the way, Hanhan hugged my neck and refused to let go.

I peeled a piece of chocolate and stuffed it into his mouth, and he peeled one for me too, saying, "Father, you eat too."

Erlang looked at the two of us strangely, and said, "Xiaotie has never talked so much before. Isn't this the first time you two have met? How did you become so close?"

I touched Xiao Tie's face and said, "What's so strange about this? What kind of friendship do I have with our son? Right? Stupid?"

Tie Hanhan hugged my neck and laughed.

Erlang shook his head and smiled: "Oh, it's really fate."

Erlang quietly told me that Xiaotie's biological mother died of drug addiction, his father was sentenced to life for robbery and murder, and the child was sent to an orphanage.

Once, Erlang visited the orphanage with his colleagues. As soon as the child saw him, he suddenly jumped out of the crowd and hugged his leg and called out: "Dad." This made the two of them destined.

People in the orphanage said that Xiao Tie was mentally handicapped and completely unable to communicate with others.

I said: "Nonsense, my son is not mentally handicapped, he will definitely become a big thing in the future. He will be six years old next year, and I will find him the best noble school, learn equestrianism, boxing, and fighting. develop."

After getting off the subway, Erlang took me with one hand and Xiaotie with the other, saying that to celebrate the family reunion, he wanted to find a place to eat hot pot.

Just as he sat down in the hot pot restaurant, his cell phone rang again.

Erlang took a look and asked me in a low voice: "It's my mother calling, should I answer it?"

I said, "Why didn't you answer your mother's call?"

Erlang was a little embarrassed: "She came to me at this time, she definitely wanted to force me to go on a blind date."

I just laughed: "Then I have to pick it up, what if it's something else."

Erlang thought for a while, and simply turned on the speakerphone.

"Mom, happy new year."

Erlang's mother said: "Second boy, where are you now? You really won't be going home? Where can you go when it's Chinese New Year?"

Erlang said: "Mom, don't worry, I can take care of myself. I'm eating with Xiaotie right now?"

The old lady asked: "Just you and Xiaotie? Is there no one else?"

Erlang said, "Mom, what do you need from me?"

The old lady said: "It's your brother-in-law. I just introduced someone to you. He is the coach of their school's gymnastics team. He is two years younger than you. He has a good family background and a good character. How about you find time to meet him?"

Erlang glanced at me and said, "Mom, don't worry, I have a partner."

The old lady was pleasantly surprised: "Hey, have you found someone? Where is the girl? What are the conditions? Is she good-looking? How is your job? Where is your home?"

Erlang said: "He is from this city, he is in good condition in all aspects, and he is also very good-looking. I like him very much."

The old lady said: "Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and bring them back. Hey, old man, cook the dumplings. My son is coming back. Take his partner with you..."

Erlang said: "Mom, don't worry, listen to me, he is..."

"Beep..." The phone hung up.

Erlang sighed: "What should we do?"

I didn't care about him, and concentrated on picking food for Hanhan.

This kid is just like his father, he loves to eat meat, and he doesn't even eat vegetables.

Erlang asked me again: "My mother asked me to take you back, what should I do?"

I said: "The voice of your old lady's voice is very familiar just now, but I can't remember where I heard it."

After the voice faded, Erlang's phone rang again, and a particularly stylish old man asked, "Second, where are you?"

Erlang said cautiously: "Dad, I'm having dinner with my friend, and I'm bringing Xiao Tie."

The old man said: "Your mother just said that you are in love? The conditions are very good?"

Erlang said, "Yes."

"Why don't you bring them back quickly? Wait for my eight sedan chairs to pick you up?"

Erlang hesitated a bit: "Dad, listen to me, he...he is..."

I stuck my head over and said, "Hello, Chief Wu."

There was a pause on the other end of the phone, and the old man said, "Hi, I hear your voice familiar, you are..."

I said, "My name is Ximen Qing. Are you Director Wu Changlong Wu?"

The old man said, "Yes, I am Wu Changlong."

I breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm a friend of Wu Baoguo, and I'm having dinner with him right now. We'll visit you in a while."

The old man thought for a while and said, "Okay."

The phone hung up, and I looked back at Erlang: "You are the second child in the family, do you have an older sister?"

Erlang said, "Yes."

"Is her name Xiaoyue?"

Erlang was surprised: "You know my sister?"

I laughed again: "Is your brother-in-law's surname Dai?"

He grabbed me: "Qing, did you know me before?"

I slapped his hand away: "Silly boy, hurry up and eat. After dinner, accompany me to buy some gifts for my family. By the way, I miss them too."

After dinner?, I went home and drove the car, and went to the China World Trade Center next door to buy a lot of things.

I bought a set of Lancome's black gold series cosmetics for Yueniang, a pair of imported running shoes for Dai Zong, a high-end cashmere coat for my former mother-in-law and mother-in-law in this life, and two bottles of XO and A box of good American ginseng.

Erlang followed me and said, "Qing, why are you spending so much money to go to our own house? What are you spending so much money for?"

I immersed myself in choosing a silk scarf for my mother-in-law's coat: "What's so heartbreaking about spending money on your own? Just help me see if they like these things or not."

Erlang looked over everything and said, "They are all favorites, Qing, how can you even feel their temper so clearly?"

Can you not understand?In the previous life, this family was as familiar as I was with you. I never thought that you would be reincarnated as my father-in-law's son and Yueniang's younger brother in this life.

After picking things out, I held Hanhan in my arms, and Erlang drove to their house together.

When they entered the door, everyone had strange expressions on their faces.

My mother-in-law pulled Erlang aside and asked, "Didn't you say you had dinner with your partner? Why is this a man?"

Yueniang came over and pulled Xiaotie and said, "Xiaotie, let auntie see if he has grown taller?" Looking up at me, she asked, "Are you my brother's friend?"

I looked at her and smiled slightly: "Xiaoyue, you are still so beautiful."

She was startled, her face flushed slightly, and she said to the kitchen: "Old Dai, there are guests coming, come out and say hello."

Old Dai walked out of the kitchen on two long legs and grabbed my hand: "Are you a friend of my second brother? It's a pleasure to meet you. Please sit down. The food will be ready soon. Let's eat together."

I just wanted to laugh when I saw Dai Zong walking around the room wearing an apron. In my previous life, I would never have imagined that he would have such a dignified appearance.

I said: "Let's eat, I, Erlang and Xiaotie have eaten together."

Dai Zong was stunned: "Erlang?"

With a dry cough, Wu Changlong, who was holding a purple sand pot in his hand, came out, squinted his eyes and looked at me, and said, "You're here?"

I stretched out my hand: "Hello, Uncle."

He lazily stretched out his hand and shook it with me, and asked Erlang, "Second brother, did your partner come back with you?"

I looked at Erlang, and Erlang also looked at me, neither of them spoke.

The atmosphere was weird for a moment, Yueniang subconsciously leaned on Dai Zong's shoulder, and the two of them looked at me warily.

When Wu Changlong tilted his hand, the water in the purple clay pot scalded his hand.

The old lady was the only one who didn't react, she was still pulling Erlang and asking: "Son, didn't you just say that you were with your partner? Where is she now?"

The corner of Erlang's mouth twitched and was about to speak when Yueniang came over and pulled him: "Little brother, what are you busy with since you haven't come back for so long?

Just now your brother-in-law said that he wanted to ask you something, Lao Dai, what did you want to tell your brother just now? "

Dai Zong dragged Erlang and walked into the house: "Second brother, talk to brother-in-law about what you have been doing these days, Xiaotie, come, let uncle hug you."

Erlang looked back at me worriedly, and I smiled at him, indicating that it was all right.

Over there, Yueniang dragged the old lady into the room again: "Mom, my brother bought you a cashmere coat, which happens to be the style and color you like, come and try it on."

In a blink of an eye, only Wu Changlong and I were left in the living room.

He looked at me coldly: "You and our second child are..."

I said, "Uncle, do you have a colleague named Wen Mingwen?"

He was stunned: "You know him?"

I picked up the glass and took a sip: "If the guess is correct, Erlang asked the unit to fire him because of his tricks, right? It was also his idea to use this matter to push you down from your position?"

Wu Changlong squinted his eyes: "You even know about this? It can't be that the second child told you. His brain can't think of this step."

I said: "Erlang arrests prostitutes to do his own job. What does it have to do with Erlang if that guy jumped off the building? If someone didn't make a fuss on purpose, he wouldn't lose his job, and he wouldn't be able to implicate you. Such a dirty guy, you Didn't you ever think about teasing him?"

Wu Changlong leaned forward: "Do you have a solution?"

I pursed my lips and smiled, but said nothing.

He thought for a while: "This is our family's business. No outsiders need to interfere. Anyway, I will not agree with you and the second child. This is the only son I have."

I smiled: "If the guess is correct, his surname Wen also has a son."

Wu Changlong nodded: "Yes, that kid's name is Wen Liang, he has a high degree of education, and he joined our bureau as soon as he graduated. Joining forces with his father has caused me a lot of trouble."

I said, "Come on, leave this matter to me, and you don't have to do it."

He glanced at the gold watch in my hand: "It seems that you are doing well, kid, how did you meet our second child?"

I said, "Fate."

Wu Changlong lit a cigarette and smoked it, and after a while he laughed: "I like your temper! Even if you can't get things done with the second child, I am willing to make you a friend. Come here, drink with uncle first." A few cups."

I sat at the dinner table with him, opened the foreign wine, poured him a glass, and filled it myself.

He squinted at the wine bottle: "The wine is good, how do you know that I like to drink it? The second child will not tell you, he never pays attention to it."

I said, "As long as uncle likes it, I will often buy it for you in the future."

He raised his palms up: "I'm a party member. I never take other people's needles and threads. If you want it, you have to. Don't be so polite when you come to the door in the future. If it spreads, it will have a bad influence."

I raised my eyebrows: "Okay Dad, now you have a high level of awareness, it seems that the party has educated you well."

My father-in-law drank a few sips of wine and his face turned a little red: "What do you call me, kid?"

I said, "Call me Dad, right?"

He glanced at me, and suddenly smiled: "What the hell, I'm in a daze, I'm obviously annoying you, why do you look more and more pleasing to the eye now, boy, we didn't know each other before, did we?"

I picked up food for him with a pair of clean chopsticks: "I know, I've known each other for a long time, just like Erlang, it's fate."

The old man patted my shoulder and laughed.

When the people in the room came out again, Wu Changlong and I were drinking, laughing and talking enthusiastically.

Erlang was stunned, sat next to me and asked, "What did you say to my dad? So happy?"

Wu Changlong pointed at his nose: "Boy, if you are half as smart as Ximen Qing, I really don't need to worry about you. You, learn more from him in the future."
