Chapter 1341 Set a small goal and drive the aircraft carrier home
One month later.
Nanjing.
"Brother, brother, I'm here."
As soon as Lin Yue and Qiao Qiqi came out of the passage, they saw Qiao Simei jumping and screaming in the crowd.
"Fourth sister."
"Qiqi, eh..."
Talking about the relationship with Qiao Qiqi, among the four siblings in the old house, Qiao Simei is the one closest to him because she often goes to Wei Shufen's house and sees him more frequently.
Comparing the Qiao Qiqi in front of her with the Qiao Qiqi a month ago, apart from being a little tanned and looking a little tired, there was another big difference. However, she searched for the specific differences.
It can only be described as the light in the eyes has changed.
Lin Yue asked: "Are you here alone?"
Qiao Simei lowered her gaze and glanced at her toes: "Yes, Brother Min and Sister Xingyu are both busy, and I am the only one free."
Lin Yue didn't ask any more questions, and threw the canvas bag in his hand into her arms: "Let's go."
"What is it that's so heavy? Is it a gift for me?"
Qiao Simei pressed it with her hand and found that it felt quite hard.
"Well... that's right."
"What do you mean it's okay."
Qiao Simei pouted and stopped a taxi. After putting her luggage away, she sat in the passenger seat and said to the driver: "Baibupo Community."
"Eh." Lin Yue said in confusion: "Aren't you going to the old house?"
"Not going."
It could be heard that her voice was full of resentment.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Even Qiao Qiqi felt the problem inside,
"Let's talk about it when we get back."
After Qiao Simei finished speaking, she realized that this question was asked by Qiao Qiqi: "Qiqi, I found that you... have become different from before?"
"What's the meaning?"
"Now that you have learned to observe people's emotions, and you dare to speak, you didn't even care about things in the old house before."
Qiao Qiqi lowered her head and did not respond to her emotion. All the things that happened in this month flashed through her mind, including the various impacts of the current situation in Russia and Ukraine on society. These things may be included in books in the future.
Yes, but the description based on words is really pale and feeble, and it is far less shocking than seeing it with your own eyes.
Lin Yue was very satisfied with the youngest brother's reaction.
This is the state that a normal man should have, not the "brother's boy" described by the female author who is so effeminate that he can be described as a coward.
He has three purposes for going to the north. First, to correct Qiao Qiqi, let him see savagery, understand cruelty, and stop being a flower in the greenhouse. Second, to film the living conditions of international gangsters and make preliminary preparations for the production of documentaries.
.Third, take a side trip to Ukraine to see if there is anything worth looking back on.
Now it seems that all three goals have been achieved.
"Brother, before you took Qiqi away, you said you were going to the north. Where did you go? The three eastern provinces? Inner Mongolia? Or Shaanxi or Gansu?"
After Lin Yue took the people away, Qiao Simei heard from Chang Xingyu that they had gone to the north. This era is not like twenty or thirty years later, when every household has a mobile phone and the Internet. If you want to get in touch, you can only travel far away.
Two people made long-distance calls home. For more than a month, the two parties had not exchanged a few words. They usually reported that everything was safe and then hung up. There was no chance to ask many questions.
"Russia, Ukraine."
"Ah? Going abroad? North, north, this is really north enough..."
Hearing these two words, not only Qiao Simei was surprised, but the taxi driver couldn't help but glance at the rearview mirror.
"Brother, I still don't understand, why are you taking Qiqi so far away?"
Qiao Simei is a lively person, and she is also someone who is very afraid of being left alone. Even though she knows that the two of them are tired from the journey, she can't keep her mouth shut and give the two behind her some rest time.
"Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles."
"don't know."
"Just don't understand." Lin Yue said: "Do you know what most women lack most?"
"What?"
"pattern."
"What is a pattern?"
"You can't see that I don't want to talk, and you can't see that Qiqi needs to rest. This is called having no pattern."
Qiao Simei looked unhappy: "Huh, if I had known, I wouldn't have come to pick you up."
…
Half an hour later.
The taxi stopped downstairs at the unit in Baibupo Community. Watching the driver drive away, Qiao Simei said to Lin Yue: "Brother, you have to promise me something before going upstairs."
Lin Yue was puzzled: "Why should I do this? Did you get into trouble again?"
"Oh, please promise me first, promise me first..."
"Okay, tell me what's going on."
"No matter what you see for a while, you can't be angry."
"Okay, I promise you."
Hearing this, Qiao Simei breathed a sigh of relief, then picked up the canvas bag, turned and walked into the corridor of the unit building.
Lin Yue and Qiao Qiqi followed them to the second floor. She took out the key and opened the security door. As soon as they entered the house, Lin Yue understood why Qiao Simei said those things to him.
"Hey, the boss is back."
The person who said this was none other than that cheap old man, Qiao Zuwang.
Qiao Qiqi was stunned for a moment and subconsciously called "Dad".
He heard Lin Yue say that last year the old man found a group of gamblers who gambled every day and every night in the old house, which seriously affected the lives of Qiao Sanli and Qiao Simei, so he bought the new ones in Baibupo
The keys to the house were given to them, but they didn't expect to meet Qiao Zuwang here. Could it be that... he knew that they were coming back today and came here specially to attend the reception banquet?
Not to mention, there were five dishes on the table, including meat and vegetables, fish and duck, it really looked like that.
Lin Yue frowned: "Why are you here?"
He thought more than Qiao Qiqi, because if Qiao Zuwang only came to attend the reception banquet, there was no need for Qiao Simei to say those words downstairs, and asked her why she did so, and she was still mysterious and refused to say anything clearly.
"You are my son and I am your father. When I come to my son's house, I still want to see your face?"
This is very strange to Qiao Zuwang. He can still make some lies out of something that is shameless and shameless.
Just as Lin Yue was about to speak, the door to the master bedroom opened, and Qiao Sanli walked out wearing a goose-yellow dress. It looked like it was newly bought, and she had never seen her wear it before.
"Brother."
She stood near the sofa in the living room and greeted him.
Lin Yue nodded and shouted "Sanli".
Qiao Qiqi was a little confused because she always felt that their names were very different from before.
It's not a literal difference, it's an emotional difference.
Qiao Zuwang said: "Wang Yiding will be here soon. You are just talking like this. Look, what was your attitude towards him before? Look at him again. For more than a year, he has been sending things and helping with work during holidays. This is good.
There aren’t many men left.”
I would say that Qiao Zuwang is a mixed bag, but it is undeniable that he can say a few decent words from time to time.
At this time, Qiao Simei came out of the kitchen with a plate of fried peanuts, looked at Qiao Sanli and said, "Sister, you are so beautiful today."
Lin Yue glanced at the sound and vaguely saw Qiao Erqiang working in the kitchen.
He first made Qiao Qiqi sit down on the sofa, and ordered his younger brother to bring Qiao Sanli a small gift brought back from abroad. After that, he took Qiao Simei's hand and entered the third bedroom.
"Qiao Simei, please explain to me clearly, what is going on?"
"Brother, you said you won't be angry."
"I'm only angry if you don't explain clearly."
"It's like this. Didn't the third sister and I move out of the old house? My father stayed there for more than half a year. When he saw that we really didn't want to go back, we didn't pay him the room fee. He took the old house away when he got angry.
Once it’s rented out, I’ll move here too.”
After listening to her explanation, Lin Yue thought for a moment and understood. Qiao Zuwang saw that his two daughters no longer took care of his daily life, and also stopped paying for the room. In the end, he lost both his life and property. In the end, he heard that he
He took Qiqi to the north, so he might as well move here shamelessly. You must know that the house here has three bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen and a bathroom. It is more comfortable than the old house of Qiao's family, and he has his daughter to take care of him.
Rent out the old house to make money.
This little calculation is worthy of Qiao Zuwang.
"What's going on with the top two? Why is he here too?"
"Second brother already owes dad three months of living expenses. Dad knew you were coming back today, so he asked him to come over and cook, saying he would help you catch the wind."
"So that's it."
Lin Yue suddenly understood. As the old saying goes, a cannibal is short-tongued and a soft-handed person is soft on others. Qiao Zuwang also knew that renting out the old house and running to his son's house to occupy the magpie's nest was a bit unreasonable, so he took advantage of his return from the north to make up for it.
When something like this happens, a son can never kick me out.
"He's so calculating."
Qiao Simei nodded: "But I don't understand why the third sister has no objection at all. She seems to be very happy for dad to move here."
Lin Yue didn't dare to think deeply, so he brought the topic to Qiao Erqiang: "Didn't Qiao Erqiang finish the cooking school course a few years ago and find a hotel to work in the kitchen? How come he has no money to pay for living expenses?
