In Kyoto in August, the sky dawned unusually early. The sunlight through the window sill reflected on Zhang Bei's face. At this time, a tuft of hair was sweeping the tip of Zhang Bei's nose!
After pushing Zhang Bei a few times without opening his eyes, Zhang Qihong reached out and took him into his arms. Zhang Qihong, who was making small movements, was so frightened by Zhang Bei's sudden movement that she almost screamed.
"Stop making trouble and get up for breakfast. You are in the guest room..." Just after Zhang Qihong said this, she heard the roar of Mother Zhang's roar like a lion from the east of the river:
"Zhang Bei, you bastard, what are you doing..." After hearing this, Zhang Bei suddenly opened his eyes, not feeling sleepy at all, he straightened up immediately, released the hand that was hugging Zhang Qihong, and looked at the man standing in the guest room. At the door, the domineering Mother Zhang and Zhang Bei grinned and shouted in embarrassment:
"Good morning, Mrs. Zhang..." Zhang Qihong, who was sitting next to him, couldn't stop laughing. Zhang's mother glared at him a few times and then said to Zhang Qihong:
"Girl, your dad and grandpa are exercising at the door. Go and ask them to eat..."
"Oh..." Zhang Qihong stood up obediently, and before leaving, she did not forget to stretch out her head to make a playful look. Zhang Bei, who was sitting on the bed and did not dare to move, just stood there in a daze!
After watching her daughter leave, Zhang’s mother walked up to Zhang Bei, twisted his ears again and said:
"You kid, are you looking for a dick early in the morning..."
"Master's wife, Master's wife, be gentle, be gentle..."
"Mom, what are you doing? I don't allow you to bully Brother Bei..." After saying that, Zhang Qihong sat in front of Zhang Bei again, looking slightly angry! Only then did Zhang Bei realize that Zhang Qihong looked angry, and she was also so coquettish, no , is beautiful..
"You, you are still Brother Bei. You called me uncle in the first half of the year. Now that you are brother again, are you going to call me brother again soon?" Mother Zhang did not say the following words. She glared at Zhang Bei again. After hearing Zhang Zhen and others The sound of father pushing the door open and then saying:
"Get up, eat, should I feed you?"
"That's not necessary. If possible, let the girl feed it. My head does hurt..."
"You..." Before Zhang's mother could get angry, Zhang Bei quickly jumped out of his clothes, hunched over and slipped out through the crack in the door.
Zhang Bei, who had just rushed into the living room, saw Zhang Zhen and Zhang Jianming walking in, dressed in training attire. He quickly put away his playful cheeks and shouted seriously:
"Hello, old chief..." Zhang Bei's phrase "old chief" is a pun. Zhang Zhen is his former chief, and then he calls him "old chief." Zhang Jianming is indeed the old chief...
"Okay, okay, young man, how did you sleep last night?" Zhang Bei looked at Zhang Jianming awkwardly and replied:
“Good, very comfortable, feels like home...”
"Haha? It feels like home? You see, this child can talk a lot. If you like it, you can come and stay often. I make the decision!" When Mother Zhang heard this, she immediately became unwilling. Isn't this inviting a wolf into the house? But the old man's words are... Unable to refute, Zhang’s mother smiled and said to Zhang Jianming:
"Dad, the warm water is ready. You go ahead and wash your face. Xiaokun went to buy steamed buns and will be back soon.."
"Okay, young man, let's go together, I see you haven't washed yourself yet..." Zhang Bei agreed with a smile, but Mother Zhang's face looked a little unsightly!
Zhang Qihong ran down from upstairs in a hurry, holding a cute toothbrush in pink color with cartoon characters on it. After handing it to Zhang Bei, Zhang Qihong said softly:
"Mine is exactly the same as yours, but mine is blue, so you can use it as a couple..." After saying that, he skipped towards the living room.
After a simple wash, Zhang Bei returned to the living room and saw that Zhang Kun had just returned with several bags of steamed buns. When he saw Zhang Bei, a rather nervous smile appeared on his face. Zhang Bei walked to him and said softly Patted him on the shoulder, and then sat down next to Zhang Qihong.
"Who told you to sit over there? Sit over here!" Mother Zhang scolded in a low voice, which made Zhang Bei, who had just sat down, have to look sad and sit with Zhang Kun and Zhang Zhen, but he also happened to be with Zhang Qihong. opposite.
During the meal, Zhang Bei was always flirting with Zhang Qi with red eyebrows, and Zhang Mu was so angry that her teeth were itching when she saw the two of them ignoring everyone around them!
Seeing Zhang Bei and Zhang's mother fighting each other, even Zhang Zhen, who was usually not good at talking during meals, couldn't help but talk too much.
"Dad, my second brother called me this morning and said that his family will come over in the evening, plus Cheng Chenguang's family as promised in advance, plus Uncle Wu and the others, I'm afraid that the space in my living room will be too small. , and, if we hold such a grand family banquet in the military compound, I'm afraid..."
"Afraid? What are you afraid of? Xiao Zhen, I noticed that you have been timid in doing things since you returned to Kyoto? What's wrong? Your father is not dead yet, so show off the momentum you had to fight Zhou Hai in Jinling. What are you doing? You know, the reason why some people are taking advantage of you during this period is because you are too low-key! So many pairs of eyes in the Zhang family are looking at you, just do whatever you want..." You are worthy of having participated in several battles. The veteran, Zhang Jianming's momentary anger made Zhang Bei feel the slightest bit majestic...
Mother Zhang took the bowl from her father's hand and stood up to pour the soy milk for Zhang Jianming. Her eyes couldn't help but have a slightly uncomfortable look in her eyes. If it weren't for her unkempt nephew, her men would not be in this situation. Thinking of this, Zhang Her mother couldn't help but look at Zhang Bei a few more times, but when she saw Zhang Bei lying there drinking soy milk, his eyes still twitching from time to time, teasing her own girl, her remaining good impression of him was gone.
Although Zhang Zhen knew that his father had this temper, but being reprimanded by him in front of his children, Zhang Zhen still felt a little embarrassed. He lowered his head and replied softly:
"I understand, dad..." After hearing his son's words, Zhang Jianming said in a slightly gentle tone:
"Xiao Zhen, look forward to your future work and don't be held back by trivial matters in front of you. You are now the commander-in-chief of the Kyoto garrison. Do you need to explain some things to those old guys? No, no need. Don't care about what will happen. Can you just let the people below do it? As for what others say, you don't care what they do. Political power comes from the barrel of a gun. As long as you are still in this position, at most they will just pass it by. What else can I do? I'll bite you..." Listening to Zhang Jianming's foul language, Zhang Bei almost spit out the soy milk in his mouth. He raised his head and flattered you with a smile:
"What the old chief said makes sense. You should be strong in everything you do, otherwise people will think you are a soft persimmon..."
"You talk so much when drinking your soy milk..."
"Master, I drank it all..."
"Drink up and pour yourself..."
After having breakfast, Zhang Bei was called into the kitchen by Zhang's mother to help. Although he was very bitter, seeing that even Zhang Qihong didn't follow him, Zhang Bei knew that his wife had something serious to discuss with him...
Taking the dishes and chopsticks that Zhang's mother had washed, Zhang Bei put them in the cupboard. Zhang's mother, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said:
"Xiao Bei, go to Jinling tomorrow to help me with something..." Mother Zhang's very direct opening remarks made Zhang Bei a little surprised, and then she said with a smile:
"I won't commit murder and arson..." Zhang Bei, after being glared at by Zhang's mother, put away his hip-hop and stood behind her respectfully...
"I have a nephew named Dong Tianqi, who is a child of my cousin. If I provide you with his information, you will have to kidnap him and bring him to Kyoto..."
"tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow, I know you are bringing a car. If that guy is dishonest, you can take care of it. I will say hello to Jinling first..."
"Teacher's wife, my master is out of nowhere, why should I arrest him..."
"Do you still want to take the girl to Hong Kong City? If you bring her back to me, I will agree to let the girl go to Hong Kong City for a few days!"
"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Zhang Bei's eyes flashed with wolfish light, he straightened his chest and answered with his head held high:
"Definitely accomplished the mission..."
"I will leave this matter to Xiaokun right away. After you bring him back, just contact him directly..."
"No, Master, the whole journey from Kyoto to Jinling on the highway takes ten hours. It takes twenty hours for me to come back and forth. You won't take advantage of the incident of my departure to send the girl to Lanzhou, right?"
"You're not afraid of me, old man. Why are you afraid of me, a woman? When did I stop telling you what I said?"
"That's right, okay. I'm going to attend the family dinner tonight and I'll rush there. I'll definitely complete the task as soon as possible."
....
After walking out of the kitchen, Zhang Bei had already guessed a lot. He estimated that this person named Dong Tianqi was the relative who put the old leader in a dilemma. Every family had its own scriptures that were difficult to recite. The wife used this righteous move to kill off relatives. , I estimate that not only will Dong and Wu not be separated, but they will also have more interactions in the future. Don’t guess at the idea of playing politics. When you take the first step, the following steps have already been figured out clearly.
At about ten o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Zhongdao called Zhang Bei and said that he would take him to meet a few people to get to know each other. Zhang Bei, who originally wanted to stay at Zhang's house and be gentle with the girl, saw Zhang's mother's unfriendly face. , and gave up. After all, you can’t come empty-handed when attending a family dinner in the evening. After declining Zhang Jianming’s polite invitation to stay, Zhang Bei left in a hurry under Zhang Qihong’s reluctant eyes!
Walking to the gate of the military compound on foot, I saw the two heartless comrades and brothers squatting there smoking cigarettes and chatting. When they saw Zhang Bei coming, they quickly stood up with flattering smiles on their faces. Welcoming him.
"Do you think I'll hit you?" Before the two of them could open their mouths and use those inferior excuses to excuse themselves, Zhang Bei directly rebuked...
"Without our self-sacrifice for you, how could we have received the treatment you received from staying at Zhang's house for one night? Are you monitor?"
"Go away and tell me, what's the arrangement?"
"Several brothers who grew up in the same school gather together at noon. One more friend and one more path, right?"
"Okay, by the way, you two will ask me to think about it right away. I can't carry something to the old chief's house empty-handed at night, right?"
"Okay, squad leader, why don't you just say, let us buy good things for you in the afternoon? You're still so hypocritical..." Zhang Bei chuckled, and the three of them got on Zhang Bei's crown and drove out of the military compound.
