() About five or six minutes later, five young men from Anshan who lived near Sister Miao's house arrived. Yang Yu directed the five young men to take the things out of their residence and transport them to the car of Hongfa Hot Pot Shop.
After Yang Yu started the car, he looked back at the gifts that were almost filling the back seat. He felt his head was big. With so many things, it would definitely kill him if he moved them alone.
On the way, Bai Lu mentioned that since Bai Lu's grandfather didn't want to be public, only some close relatives and friends were invited to his birthday this time. People in the official circles basically did not receive invitations except those who were really close to the Cheng family. Therefore, today's birthday
There shouldn't be too many guests.
Bai Lu's grandpa's family lived in Duanweipo, Chengxi District. The economy in that area was not developed and there were many old-fashioned courtyard houses. Bai Lu's grandpa's house was an old house like that.
Bai Lu's mother was raised by Bai Lu's grandmother in that old house. Bai Lu's grandmother had no job and lived in this old house for most of her life. She was a typical housewife.
Yang Yu and Bai Lu drove to Duanweipo. When they passed a three-way intersection, Bai Lu pointed to a street that branched off to the side and said, "Enter here."
Yang Yu drove the car in as instructed, and then drove forward along a cement road wide enough for two large trucks to pass, climbed up a gentle slope, and drove forward for more than ten meters to a relatively small area.
Outside the quiet old courtyard house.
Outside the courtyard is a wall made of blue bricks, with some moss growing on it. There are couplets on the doorframes on both sides of the door, and the word "Fu" is affixed on both doors.
There were several cars parked on the road outside the door, all of which cost around 200,000 to 300,000 yuan. In addition, there were a few middle-aged men in straight suits chatting and laughing.
Bai Lu pointed at one of the men, who was of medium build, a little bald and with a red face, and said: "That is my uncle, let's go over and say hello."
Yang Yu glanced at the man and saw that he was chatting and laughing, but occasionally he showed a wise look that was different from ordinary people. He secretly praised in his heart that he was such a character. He agreed and parked the car on the roadside.
.
While Cheng Jianguo was talking with a few friends, he saw an Infiniti approaching, and he was curious, who is coming?
In order to avoid suspicion, some company bosses with whom he had contacts also declined. Although some of his colleagues and friends were wealthy, in order to avoid ostentation, no one bought such an expensive luxury car.
When the car door opened, Bai Lu stepped out of the car, a heartfelt smile suddenly bloomed on his face. He only had one sister, Bai Lu's mother, and Bai Lu's mother died young, so she loved Bai Lu very much.
"Uncle!"
Bai Lu quickly walked up to Cheng Jianguo and said hello.
When several friends around Cheng Jianguo saw that Cheng Jianguo was greeting guests, they said hello to Cheng Jianguo and walked inside.
Yang Yu then got out of the car and walked towards Cheng Jianguo and Bai Lu.
Cheng Jianguo was even more curious. This young man seemed to be Bai Lu's boyfriend, but he didn't know who he was. He asked Bai Lu, "Is that your friend? Please introduce him to my uncle."
Yang Yu once approached the Development Bank for a loan, but Cheng Jianguo was not in the bank at the time and did not meet him. Later, after the loan was granted, Yang Hao was solely responsible for the repayment, and the payment was automatically made every month, so the two repaid the loan.
Never seen it.
Bai Lu held Cheng Jianguo's hand and said with a smile: "I was about to introduce him to you. He...he is my boyfriend Yang Yu." Although she had already identified Yang Yu as her boyfriend, in front of her closest relatives,
It's my first time admitting it, so it's a little unnatural.
When Cheng Jianguo heard Bai Lu's words, he felt that they sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard them. He looked at Yang Yu carefully and saw that Yang Yu was wearing a suit and was looking straight. When he looked at him, he didn't squint.
Neither humble nor arrogant, his performance is very good. The only thing that makes him dissatisfied is his silver hair. Why does he look like a gangster in society?
Thinking of this, he frowned slightly and said with a smile: "I am Bai Lu's uncle. You are welcome to come to my home. I don't know where you are employed."
When Yang Yu heard this question, he thought that he would not reveal his identity first and wait until he gained their favor. He thought for a moment and said: "Hello, Mr. Cheng, just call me Yang Yu. I am doing some small work outside now."
Business is not a high-level job, it's just a side job." As he said this, he thought to himself: "What I said is not wrong, nightclubs and racecourses are both businesses, they are just side businesses."
Cheng Jianguo was interested in asking about Yang Yu's family background and information and chuckled: "Then I'll ask you to call you by your name." After a brief pause, he deliberately pretended to admire Yang Yu's car and said: "Yang Yu, this car
It’s very beautiful. Is the car your own, or did your family buy it for you?”
Bai Lu felt that the questions Cheng Jianguo asked would embarrass Yang Yu, and knowing that Yang Yu was almost an orphan, and that his family was the issue he most avoided, she immediately waved Cheng Jianguo's wrist and said coquettishly: "Uncle,
When guests come, you must first greet them to come in."
When Cheng Jianguo heard that Bai Lu was helping Yang Yu smooth things over, he glanced at Bai Lu and said with a smile, "Okay, I won't ask anymore. Bai Lu, please call your boyfriend into the house."
Bai Lu said: "Uncle, we bought you a gift, please ask a few people to come out and help get it."
Cheng Jianguo immediately turned to the gate, poked his head in, and called a few people to come out and help carry things.
Those people were all newly recruited employees of the Development Bank and were still in the probation period, so they went out of their way to please Cheng Jianguo and took leave today to come and help.
Bai Lu knew that Yang Yu was not familiar with this place, so she asked Yang Yu to accompany Cheng Jianguo to talk, and she greeted the few people to take the things in.
Cheng Jianguo saw that Yang Yu and others brought a lot of things in big and small bags. Although he didn't know what the contents were like, the intention alone was good enough. He secretly praised it and said with a smile: "Just come.
You don’t have to be so polite next time.”
Yang Yu quickly said a few words of modesty.
Cheng Jianguo immediately invited Yang Yu into the courtyard.
As soon as Yang Yu walked into the house, he saw a wide courtyard in front of him, surrounded by three-story buildings. There were several tables in the courtyard, and the sound of playing cards kept coming. A table was surrounded by people outside the building on the right.
Several big men came to the table. The table was covered in blood, and blood was dripping onto the ground. It was obvious that they had killed some animals just to entertain the guests.
Cheng Jianguo looked at a table on the right, where several people were playing poker, whether they were gambling or drinking, and said, "How about I take you over to play with them for a while?"
Yang Yu knew that he could not accompany him exclusively when entertaining guests, so he agreed with a smile and walked over with Cheng Jianguo.
Cheng Jianguo introduced Yang Yu to several people sitting at the table, who were all employees of their bank. Seeing that Cheng Jianguo was very enthusiastic about Yang Yu, those people were very polite and invited Yang Yu to sit down and play together.
After Yang Yu sat down, Cheng Jianguo went to greet the guests again.
Yang Yu then asked those people what they were doing playing cards and learned that they were playing cards and drinking. There were no acquaintances anyway and there was no place for entertainment, so he picked up his sleeves and started playing with those people.
Yang Yu played with those people for a while, and then Bai Lu walked out of a building opposite. After she came out, she looked around and saw Yang Yu sitting there playing cards with others, so she walked straight to Yang Yu and sat down.
, while watching Yang Yu play cards, he said: "How is it? Lose or win?"
Yang Yu smiled and said: "I drank two glasses, it won't be a problem."
Opposite me, a man in his thirties with a beard in his thirties seemed to be very familiar with Bai Lu. He asked Bai Lu with a smile: "Xiao Lu, is this your boyfriend?"
Bai Lu was not used to saying that Yang Yu was her boyfriend in public, so she said shyly: "Yes, Uncle Chen."
The man named Uncle Chen smiled and said: "Don't worry, your boyfriend seems to have a good drinking capacity and he won't get drunk that easily."
Yang Yu laughed heartily, what does it mean to look good? It’s okay for me to pick a few of you, and said: "Uncle Chen, my drinking capacity is not good, you have to let me go."
Uncle Chen said: "Okay, just by calling me Uncle Chen, I will protect you today."
Bai Lu wanted to laugh when she heard this. If Uncle Chen knew that Yang Yu was a gangster who specialized in protecting people and making ends meet, would he still dare to say this?
The two of them didn't criticize anything and started playing with those people.
Yang Yu played for a while and saw that only his uncle was greeting the guests. While playing cards, he asked Bai Lu in a low voice: "Bai Lu, haven't your uncles come yet?"
Bai Lu said: "Not yet. My brother-in-law and his family can't come until noon. Now only my uncle and aunt are greeting you. My aunt is directing in the kitchen and can introduce you later."
Yang Yu asked again: "What about your grandpa and grandma?"
Bai Lu said: "They are in the house and it is not very convenient for them to move around."
