Solstice Secrets

Ling Lidong held back his thoughts and waited to ask Ling Dongzhi, but before meeting him, he was taken by his father to plant flowers on the balcony before he could say a few words.Ling Lidong sat on the sofa restlessly, watched the video with Ling Ma and the others, and glanced in the direction of the balcony from time to time.

Judging by Ling Dongzhi's posture, he doesn't plan to hide it from Dad Ling anymore.Now that things have happened, it is impossible to hide this matter just by looking at Mama Ling's reaction.Ling Lidong was a little worried about Ling Dongzhi, this silly boy didn't see how angry his father was before, and when he came back, he didn't know how to confess without first ventilating with himself, and when his father got mad, he beat him up again That's bad.

Father Ling will definitely know that he tipped off Ling Dongzhi, and colluded with him to tease him.When Ling Dongzhi is over, he will definitely settle the score with himself.At this moment, Ling's mother was all focused on Ling Dongzhi's computer, and she didn't even notice that Ling Bao'er was grabbing her finger to snatch the pomegranate from his mother's hand, so it was probably hopeless for her to intercede.

Ling Lidong held back for a long time, and quietly touched the corner to listen.

Sitting on the sofa, Han Min gave him a sideways glance, thinking that this guy was just full of food and worrying about nothing.When did her parents-in-law get angry with Ling Dongzhi?Even if he was really angry, he would only be happy to see him come back with all his hands and feet.Sometimes Han Min felt that the two elders might see Ling Dongzhi the same way as Ling Baoer. The only difference is that one needs to be picked up to go to kindergarten, and the other can go to work by himself.

Ling Baoer screamed in surprise when she saw a bunch of small animals appearing on the screen, and they were so close to Ling Dongzhi.While perfunctory, Han Min peeked at Ling Lidong's movements.As a result, after watching for a while, Ling Lidong's expression changed, as if he had heard something extraordinary, Han Min's heart skipped a beat.Seeing Ling Dongzhi coming from the balcony with red eye circles, she was about to go over and ask, when Ling Lidong made a gesture to her, signaling her to look at Ling Baoer, and walked away grabbing Ling Dongzhi's collar.

Ling Dongzhi was washing his hands in the bathroom, and Ling Lidong leaned on the door frame to interrogate him, "What's going on? Why was it taken hostage?"

Ling Dongzhi didn't expect him to be hiding outside and eavesdropping, he looked a little helpless, "I met a poacher."

Ling Lidong's eyebrows twitched together, "Is Zhuang Zhou not with you?"

"When he found the village, I was already taken away." Ling Dongzhi comforted his brother, "He helped a lot later."

Ling Lidong commented with a gloomy face, "Trash."

Ling Dongzhi gave him a rough account of what happened in the mountains, and told him: "I don't want to tell Mom about it. Be careful, don't let it slip."

Ling Lidong snorted, "Speaking of Zhuangzhou, what's the situation in his family now?"

"It should be fine." Ling Dongzhi didn't want to see Zhuang Zhou quarreling with his family, "Brother, trust me, I won't send myself to suffer."

Ling Lidong glanced at him sideways, his eyes obviously didn't trust him very much.But he didn't say anything else, he just asked, "What's the arrangement for tomorrow?"

Ling Dongzhi thought for a while, "Go to see a friend."

Ling Lidong asked subconsciously, "What friend?"

Ling Dongzhi patted his shoulder with his wet paw, and said with a smile: "Brother, I'm already in my twenties, not your Ling Baoer."

Ling Lidong pinched his neck fiercely, "If you are really Ling Baoer, I will beat you to death with a belt right now."

Ling Dong Zhi laughed itchyly.

Ling Lidong had nothing to do with him, he shook him a few times and threw it aside, "Remember to come back early at night, waiting for you to eat!"

Ling Dongzhi pointed to the sky and the earth, "It must, it must."

The friend Ling Dongzhi mentioned was Chen Linxia, ​​the person in charge of Tongxin Love House.

Ling Dongzhi met him the year he just returned to Binhai after graduating from university. At that time, the two of them were carrying cat food and feeding stray cats in the bushes by the street, so they met.Later, they met twice in different places, and the two got to know each other like this.Chen Linxia was preparing to build a relief station at that time, and Ling Dongzhi even volunteered to help him get a few grants.After Tong Xinai's home is built, Ling Dongzhi will come to help out when he is not busy.However, there were too many things during this period of time ago, and the two of them hadn't seen each other very much.

Ling Dongzhi parked the car at the gate of Tong Xin'ai's House, honked the horn a few times, and saw Chen Linxia running out from inside with a disheveled head, not even wearing a coat.Seeing Ling Dongzhi carrying out bags of cat and dog food from the trunk, he quickly turned back and called for two helpers.

When Ling Dongzhi saw Tu Xiaobei who came out behind Chen Linxia, ​​he was really taken aback.He didn't expect Tu Xiaobei to be here, it will be the fifteenth day of the first lunar month in two days, shouldn't this young master go home for the reunion festival.But even if he had doubts in his heart, Ling Dongzhi would not ask such questions in front of him, he and Tu Xiaobei were not that familiar.Besides, where he wants to spend the holiday has nothing to do with him.

After moving the cat and dog food, Ling Dongzhi moved out another cardboard box from the car.Inside are two wooden carvings and some local products for Chen Linxia: pomegranate, cured beef and mutton, crystal cakes, jujubes and so on.Ling Dongzhi himself doesn't like to eat snacks very much, but he bought a lot of these things.On the one hand, both Ling Ma and Han Min like it, and on the other hand, he is also planning to bring back some points for his colleagues.

Chen Linxia took Ling Dongzhi into her room, tore open a bag of cured beef, chewed it, nodded, "Well, that's the taste."

Ling Dongzhi looked around with the wooden carving, and hung it on the wooden shelf next to the bookcase for him, "hang it here."

Chen Linxia nodded while chewing the beef, "Well, it's good. Did you buy it in Xi'an?"

"It's not Xi'an. I bought it in a small town on the border between Shaanxi and Gansu." Ling Dongzhi said, pulling out his own precious stone from his collar, "By the way, show me this. I asked many people I don't even know what it is." One of the reasons why Ling Dongzhi came to see him so eagerly was that Chen Linxia had been in the jadeite business and knew a lot about things like jewelry and jade.

Chen Linxia put down the cured beef in his hand, wiped his hands with a paper towel, took the Lingdongzhi stone, went to the window to examine it carefully, and took out tools such as a magnifying glass from the drawer, fiddled with it over and over again, muttering He said some terms that Ling Dongzhi couldn't understand.

"What the hell is it?"

Chen Linxia is also a mosquito coil with two eyes, "I haven't seen it before."

Ling Dongzhi was a little disappointed.But after thinking about it, the old man in Qingshi Town has collected so many things for more than 20 years, and he didn't figure out what they were called.It's normal for Chen Linxia not to know.

Ling Dongzhi took the stone and hung it around his neck, "Go out for dinner later?"

Chen Linxia scratched her hair, "I plan to take them out for lunch at noon. Why don't you come together?"

When Ling Dongzhi thought of sitting with Tu Xiaobei, he lost his appetite, "Forget it. You guys go. I won't follow."

Chen Linxia understood somewhat in her heart, "How about..." Before he finished speaking, someone knocked on the door outside, and Chen Linxia hurriedly said, "Come in."

The door opened, and the young man standing at the door nodded at him expressionlessly, "Brother Chen, I have something to do, and I want to talk to Mr. Ling alone."

Chen Linxia turned to look at Ling Dongzhi.Ling Dongzhi frowned impatiently, "You are not mistaken, Tu Xiaobei, what can we two need to talk about alone?" He didn't want to be entangled by Tu Xiaobei for no reason, and just casually directed at Chen Linxia He waved his hand, "Okay, I'll go first, I'll contact you when I have time."

Tu Xiaobei hurriedly followed, "Ling Dong Zhi, I don't mean anything malicious, I just want to talk to you."

Ling Dongzhi walked out without looking back, "A person who wanted to hit you with a car told you that he didn't mean any harm, do you believe it?"

Tu Xiaobei chased after Ling Dongzhi and held down Ling Dongzhi's car door, "Ling Dongzhi, even if I bumped into you, it's a personal grievance between the two of us. Can you stop dealing with the Tu family?"

Ling Dongzhi looked at him like an idiot, "If I had the ability to deal with the Tu family, I would have sent you to prison for two years at that time. Do you think I was so kind that I spared you?! Tu Xiaobei, you Are you mentally ill?"

Tu Xiaobei's face turned green and then pale, "The banker has already started buying Tu's stock. I beg you, can you..."

Ling Dongzhi was stunned for a moment when he heard the word Zhuangjia, and then he was happy, "You probably don't know. Zhuangzhou has been suspended, and he is not considered an employee of Zhuang's now. Neither of us knows what you said. have no idea."

"Impossible." Tu Xiaobei didn't believe it at all, "If it wasn't because I offended you, why did Zhuang Zhou fight against my brother?"

Ling Dongzhi asked him back, "So you also know that it's because you offended me?!"

Tu Xiaobei's expression changed.

"Haven't you heard of it?" Ling Dongzhi felt impatient when he saw his face, "I can't talk to the dealer. You can solve the trouble yourself. Isn't your brother very powerful? Yes He is such a great god blocking the front, you are simply worrying about it."

Tu Xiaobei pulled his sleeve from behind, with a hint of forbearance in his tone, "Because of Zhuang's trouble, my brother lost several big orders in a row, and my grandpa got angry, and he has taken back the decision-making power from him." ..."

"Business isn't about doing charity, you also need your opponent to let you down... I said Tu Xiaobei, does your brother need you to intercede? If he knew that you would do such a shameful thing, would he die of anger right away? Or Said that your intelligence has always stayed at the kindergarten level, and you only know how to enjoy his care of you with peace of mind, but you never thought that the trouble you caused would eventually kill him?"

Tu Xiaobei lowered his head and bit his lips tightly.

"I don't care about your affairs, and I don't have the ability to do so." Ling Dongzhi shook his hand away with a look of disgust, "I don't care if I have the ability. I'm not a saint. If you hit me, I will pounce on you and block the bullets for you. You will settle the troubles you caused yourself."

Tu Xiaobei ran after him for two steps, "Ling Dongzhi, I apologize to you."

Ling Dongzhi opened the car door, frowned slightly and looked back at him, "Don't you think your apology came too late? Besides, your apology was used to bargain with me. It's not worth the money. I think you should come I'm hitting the clock here, why don't you go back and discuss it with your brother to see if there is any turning point."

Tu Xiaobei's face revealed a trace of gray and defeated look.

Ling Dongzhi thought for a while and added, "Don't blame me for gloating. Good is rewarded with good and evil is rewarded with evil. It is the most fair law in this world. Didn't the saints say the same thing?"

"Repaying resentment with virtue, why repay virtue?"
