Ma Qi's bad idea was immediately approved by Ma Ling: "What a good idea, let's borrow it from your parents."
"No, no, my parents are stubborn and can't act. They will definitely get involved when the time comes." Ma Qi waved her hands fiercely.
Liu Handong was worried. He had limited resources in the provincial capital. If he found someone to fight, he might be able to get dozens of people to fight. It was really difficult to find two veteran actors to play Ma Ling's parents. Moreover, this kind of meeting with in-laws would definitely require a visit at home, so
It also requires a venue and a full set of performances, which is very complicated.
This matter is quite difficult, so we treat it as a joke.
After dinner and walking around for a while, Liu Handong sent Ma Ling home. This time he didn't dare to send Ma Ling downstairs. The two of them separated at the gate of the community. It happened that Huo Lei called to invite Brother Dong to a barbecue, saying that he had several friends who admired him.
If you want to get to know Brother Dong's reputation, you must give him face. I heard that he was already drunk.
Liu Handong rushed over on a motorcycle. Ma Guoqing had ordered his daughter to return the Jialing 600 to him. It would not be appropriate for it to appear in the carport downstairs of Ma's house again.
When they arrived at the barbecue stall, it turned out that a group of delinquent teenagers had drunk too much. They were all students of the Vocational and Technical College of Transportation. They had seen Liu Handong's heroic act challenging the driver of a black car at the school gate. They shook hands with Brother Dong with a red face and made some nonsense.
Huo Ying was also sitting nearby, wearing a leather skirt and black stockings, holding a cigarette. She didn't drink too much, she sat next to Liu Handong and grilled him.
Everyone was chatting randomly. Liu Handong had nothing in common with the teenagers, so he could only talk to Huo Ying. As they talked, they talked about the plan to find two middle-aged extras to play Ma Ling's parents. Huo Ying burst out laughing.
, Brother Dong, you are so funny, you can think of this trick.
Liu Handong laughed it off, it was originally a joke.
The next day, Liu Handong went to work in front of the Transportation Vocational College as usual, and suddenly received a call from Song Shuang, asking him to help Grandma Sun move.
Only when I got there did I find out that Grandma Sun had sold the house!
Although this house is dilapidated, it is in a good location and belongs to an urban area. The house with an area of less than 100 square meters was sold for more than one million yuan, just in time to pay off the grandson's debt. Grandma Sun did this behind everyone's back. Originally,
Although the name on the house certificate has been changed, there is still a lawsuit to be fought. Now the old man can't stand his grandson's pleading and offers to sell the house. It's hard for others to say anything. Anyway, he rented the house in Huahuo Village, so why not ask Grandma Sun to move here?
, and also take care of these stray cats and dogs.
It is said that Sun Xiaoyang owes money to Hanwei Company. They take both black and white, and there are many tricks to make you pay back the money. More than one million is not a small amount, but it is still cheap compared with human life.
Courtyard No. 13 has been simply renovated. The thatch on the roof and walls was plucked, painted with white paint, the cobwebs and old dust were cleaned, simple furniture was put in, and several cat climbing frames were erected in the yard. Look.
It felt like home now. Grandma Sun had paid off her grandson's debt and her spirits were up again. However, Liu Handong lost sympathy for the loving old lady. After finishing the work, he took the money and left without any nonsense.
As soon as he left the house, Song Shuang chased him out, opened the car door and got into Fukang.
"Where are you going?" Liu Handong asked.
"Go home." Song Shuang said angrily, "Poor people must be hateful. Grandma Sun is really old and confused."
"She is not confused. No matter how prodigal her grandson is, she still has to rely on him to support him in his old age. How can he rely on the government?" Liu Handong said, starting the car.
The car drove to Tiezha Street, and Sister Mei's hair washing room flashed past the window. Song Shuang asked Liu Handong to stop the car to learn about Huanxi's recent life and study situation.
There were two men with gold chains sitting in the shampoo room. The simple tattoos were exposed under the sleeves of the black Adidas sportswear. The two were flirting with Nana Xiaoya. When they saw Song Shuang come in, their eyes lit up.
Song Shuang stared at her and had goosebumps all over his body.
"Little sister, new here?" a man asked with a smile.
"I'm not in this business." Xiaoya hurriedly stopped the man's next move and asked, "Are you here to see handsome Ling? He is tutoring Huanxi in the house."
Song Shuang didn't think much and pushed open the door of Huanxi's room. He saw Ling Zijie sitting cross-legged on the bed with an Ipod in his hand. Huanxi was sitting at the desk with English extensive reading on the table and two earbuds on the left and right.
I was listening with rapt attention.
Seeing the uninvited guest coming in, Ling Zijie was suddenly very embarrassed. He stood up in a hurry and explained: "I am correcting Huanxi's pronunciation."
Song Shuang didn't think there was anything wrong. He nodded to him and asked Huanxi if he still needed any school supplies. Liu Handong also came in at this time. This time it was Huanxi's turn to be embarrassed. He stood up and said: "Brother, Brother Ling
Give me some English lessons."
Liu Handong said: "Well, study hard. Ling Zijie is a top student in Beiqing. His English is absolutely standard, much better than the teachers in your rural schools."
Song Shuang said: "Then we won't disturb you anymore, let's go."
She said that she and Liu Handong went out together. She was really not used to the atmosphere in the shampoo room. She went out and got in the car and left. She didn't even notice that Ling Zijie was waving at the car behind her.
However, Liu Handong saw Ling Zijie in the rearview mirror and felt happy. This guy was a passionate person and wanted to take it all.
…
A few days later, in the evening, Liu Handong was chatting with Huo Lei at the entrance of the Transportation Vocational and Technical College. Here, there are Internet cafes, game rooms, billiard halls, food stalls, and hourly rooms. Huo Lei and other unemployed young people often hang out here.
It's a local snake.
Suddenly the cell phone rang. It was his mother calling, and Liu Handong quickly answered the call.
"Xiaodong, mom has already boarded the train."
"where to?"
"Let's go to Omi. I came here with your Uncle He to meet the in-laws. I brought a lot of things. You can pick them up later. Hey, mom has prepared a big gift for my daughter-in-law."
Liu Handong was speechless and speechless. He had already forgotten about this incident. He didn't expect his mother to come directly without saying hello in advance. Now it was too late to tell the truth. After a few ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, his mother died happily.
Telephone.
"Oops." Liu Handong said.
"What's the matter?" Huo Lei rolled up his sleeves, "Do you need to call someone? I'll blow the whistle right now. There are thirty or fifty people."
Liu Handong said with a bitter face: "You can't solve the problem even if you shout a hundred times. My mother wants to come to meet her in-laws."
Huo Lei spread his hands: "Then I really have no choice."
Liu Handong had no choice but to drive to the train station to pick him up. He thought a lot on the way and decided to tell his mother the truth and tell her that Ma Ling's parents disagreed. I think her mother would understand.
In the past, it took more than four hours to take a train from Jiangbei to the provincial capital, but now the high-speed train arrives in one hour and fifteen minutes. Liu Handong waited for his mother and stepfather at the exit of the high-speed rail station. He saw the two of them carrying large and small luggage and walking in happily.
When I came out, I was wearing travel clothes.
Liu Handong went up to receive these heavy gifts and led them to his car. His stepfather looked at the Big Dipper on the car and reached out to touch the hole made by the bullet, thoughtfully.
"Performance art, just decoration." Liu Handong explained with a guilty conscience. If his mother knew that he had been shot, he might have a heart attack.
Stepfather smiled and said nothing.
The three of them got in the car, and Liu Handong was thinking about how to settle them and tell the truth. His mother took out a small box from her bag and opened it like a treasure. Inside was a pair of gold earrings.
"What your grandma passed down to me back then was a good thing before liberation. I will give it to Xiao Ma as an engagement gift for our family." My mother said with a smile.
"Mom, actually..." Liu Handong found it difficult to speak.
"Also, look, here are the cigarettes and wine I brought for your father-in-law, as well as the clothes and scarves I bought for your mother-in-law..." Mom looked through the things in the bag with great interest.
Suddenly the phone rang, it was Huo Ying.
"Brother Dong, are aunt and uncle here?"
"Just arrived."
"Are you telling the truth?"
"not yet."
"That's good. Don't say anything. Just come back. I'll arrange everything for you."
"Where are you going? What arrangements have you made?" Liu Handong didn't turn around.
"Fool, extra, don't ask, you'll find out when you get back." Ma Ling hung up the phone.
"Xiaodong, what did you want to say just now?" asked his stepfather.
"Nothing. Did you eat in the car?" Liu Handong said.
"After you've eaten, hurry up and drive. Don't keep your in-laws waiting." Mom said with a smile.
Liu Handong drove back to Tiezha Street with a nervous heart. As soon as he arrived at the door of No. 108, he saw Huo Lianhe and Bao Yumei standing at the door, dressed to the nines.
Huo Lianhe was dressed in a majestic police uniform, with a meticulous tie and a solemn national emblem on his head. Bao Yumei was dressed as a middle-aged intellectual woman, with foundation and lipstick. Of course, she could not hide her philistine air.
, but that’s okay, Ma Ling’s mother was originally a philistine.
"Oh my, I've been waiting for you." Huo Lianhe stepped forward and opened the car door, extending his hand enthusiastically: "Hello, hello, I'm Ma Ling's father, and my name is Ma Jianguo."
The stepfather shook hands with him: "Hello, I am from Xiaodong's family. My name is He Jian, from He Long, from strong Jian."
Bao Yumei also came up and said very sweetly: "This is Xiaodong's mother, she is so young and well taken care of. We have been looking forward to your coming. If you don't come, I will go to Jiangbei to find you."
The mother was flattered: "Oh, eldest sister, I'm really sorry. Something happened at home that delayed me. I should have come over long ago. Let's sit down and settle the child's affairs."
Liu Handong was silent, got out of the car, took out the things from the trunk, and carried them into the yard. The card game that had always been untouchable was gone today, and the upstairs and downstairs were cleaned very clean.
The four parents entered the house politely and humbly. Huo Lei and Huo Ying were not at home, and Liu Handong hurriedly ran back and forth to bring tea and water.
Huo Lianhe looked at his watch and said, "Ma Ling has a while to get off work. Let's go to the hotel first. We have already booked a seat. Please wait a moment while I change into the police uniform. Our police discipline is very strict and you cannot drink in uniform."
"
Just as he was about to go out, he saw Shan Pao coming to the door holding a banner with the four characters "People's Defender" written on it.
"Officer Ma, Ma Qing!" Shan Pao knelt down as soon as he entered the door, tears streaming down his face, revealing his true feelings.
