Zhou Lan was silent and shed tears. He didn't learn anything from outsiders, so he learned it from his own family first.
I didn't want to say any more, so I sat there and drank tea. But I didn't taste anything.
Then I heard Cousin Lin say shamelessly: "The gift from Zhuangzi is very good. I am short of money. I need private property. The gift is good. Your cousin-in-law also said, thank you for being so considerate and giving me no space."
Let’s talk at home when time passes.”
Zhou Lan turned his head and ignored this. If time went back, he would definitely not give it away. Even if he could take it back, it would be fine.
It was obvious that Zhuangzi couldn't even spit out the money in Cousin Lin's hands.
Cousin Lin followed suit and said, "The money you earn is right. I feel at ease with it. It's convenient for you to use. It's very good. Keep up the good work."
By the way: "Your calligraphy is good, I'll hang it in the study, it's enough to give you face."
Then Cousin Lin left without saying a word to Zhou Lan.
Therefore, what Zhou Lan wanted to say was not said out loud, and he was tricked and swayed by others.
Zhou Lan reflected on himself and found that he had been having a smooth sailing lately. This was not a loss. He would have to remember better in the future.
In the past, my daughter-in-law often said that acquaintances are the most ruthless, but he didn’t remember it for a long time. This time he learned the lesson. It turns out that this kind of disadvantage is more likely to be suffered by a few people.
If it were another person, who could have tricked him like this, Zhou Lan? He was careless. A naked reality lesson.
When he returned home, Zhou Lan looked like he had been beaten seven inches, his head drooping, which was very pitiful.
It is estimated that he will not be able to recover from Cousin Lin's blow for several days.
Jiang Changxi looked at her husband who was as lonely as a decent woman who had been abandoned by a scumbag. She no longer cared about her own accounts and cared about her husband: "What's wrong with you? Didn't you say you were going to see cousin Lin? Could it be that my cousin is in trouble?"
Are you there? Or is it because Cousin Lin is obsessed with you? Are you broken up?"
It means you brothers are wearing a pair of trousers, but why are you in a bad mood when you come back today?
Zhou Lan glanced at Jiang Changxi and said, "It's only after meeting him that I realized that people's hearts are evil."
Jiang Changxi: "That's not possible. How can my cousin trick you and give you Zhuangzi? Or give you money? Or does he want to make you a playboy?"
Ever since Cousin Lin appeared in Jiang Changxi's world, he has only given money to Zhou Lan, to Zhuangzi, and to the courtyard. He really never thought that he could do anything else.
So it was quite easy to say that. From Jiang Changxi's point of view, the two brothers couldn't really break up. They just had to make it clear.
Zhou Lan was devastated because, contrary to what his wife said, he was the one who was cheated of Zhuangzi and his money.
He gritted his teeth and said, "I've always told you that even though your cousin is gentle on the outside, he is someone who has his own plans. Why do you still think so well of him?"
Jiang Changxi is a little unjust, not because of what I think, but mainly because the affection your cousin showed me is really good. However, this cousin Zhou always talks what he means and talks about his cousin as a bit of a scumbag.
This time, Cousin Lin was really a scumbag. Zhou Lan was furious. Why was his wife still stubborn? "Don't let me fool you. He only has a righteous face, but he actually has a lot of eyes. What do you know?"
?" I have been bullied.
Looking at his heartbroken look, Jiang Changxi hit the nail on the head: "You must be the one who was deceived. After all, my cousin looks like that in my eyes, but he is not as eye-catching as you described."
It's not that Jiang Changxi is bragging. Cousin Lin can't deceive her. I wonder if Zhou Lan can understand.
Zhou Lan immediately stopped talking. He obviously understood, and he was really deceived. Cousin Lin is very familiar with him.
Jiang Changxi knew that he had guessed correctly. Zhou Lan was tricked by cousin Lin when he went out. Poor man, he must be in love.
Jiang Changxi's gossip mind came online and he leaned over: "Tell me, why do people deceive their feelings? It makes me happy too."
Seeing his wife gloating about her misfortune, Zhou Lan's face hurt, and the wording was wrong. What does it mean to deceive feelings? She said that she was just like a young woman in her boudoir.
In addition, the couple agreed to have a deep love. Is this the rhythm of sharing weal and woe? I was deceived. How can I tell you this to make you happy?
Zhou Lan's face was dark, feeling that the world was distorted: "Is there anyone like you who exploits your own family? I was deceived, can you be happy?"
Jiang Changxi wanted to say, naturally I would not like it if you were deceived by others, but I would be happy to see you deceived by Cousin Lin.
I was so jealous of the friendship between you two cousins that I didn't want to let go of it. It would be great to break it up without having to break it up. It's a pity that it's hard to say.
He said with a correct attitude: "This is a matter of course. You see, you have already suffered a loss. My cousin will definitely laugh at us behind our backs. If you are only depressed by yourself, then we will suffer a lot, right?"
You tell me, if I follow Lele anyway, can we make up for it a little bit?"
I have never heard of such a settlement. Zhou Lan was stunned for several seconds.
Then Zhou Lan had a sullen face and was angry at his wife: "You are fooling an idiot. Do you think I am not smart?"
He's already so sad, why don't you coax him and tease him? What's the gentleness you promised him?
Jiang Changxi chuckled. Zhou Lan was no longer thinking about cousin Lin. This daughter-in-law was the one who should be dealt with the most.
The couple who were arguing with each other soon went off topic, and then they saw the young couple talking and laughing. Who would have thought of Cousin Lin.
Let him go wherever he can. As for how Zhou Lan was deceived, Jiang Changxi was stunned and did not ask. Zhou Lan probably felt embarrassed and laughed it off.
Seeing Zhou Lan relieved, Jiang Changxi raised his eyebrows, magic defeated magic, let cousin Lin find his own wife, don't try to compete with me, Jiang Changxi.
In Jiang Changxi's opinion, no lady in the world is as threatening to her as Cousin Lin. At the beginning, Zhou Lan always said "my cousin's".
You see, Jiang Changxi is now what Zhou Lan calls 'my wife'. This is success.
Taking advantage of the opportunity that Cousin Lin was in the capital, Zhou Lan finally sat down with Cousin Lin again.
It's mainly for errands. I just visited other places last time and nothing else.
Cousin Lin was impressed when he heard his cousin say this without being roundabout at all. He had been in officialdom for so long, and it was all in vain.
Facing Zhou Lan: "We brothers, why do we need to explain these words?"
Zhou Lan really regarded this liar as his cousin: "Of course there is no need. I just want to show off to my cousin."
Cousin Lin laughed and said, "My cousin did a really good job, and the copybooks are good." This was an affirmation of his cousin's approach.
Then he said: "Remember your uncle's kindness and do better than your uncle." This was to point out that he knew that his cousin had his own connections in the capital, so he used them at critical times and used them well.
