At seven o'clock in the evening, Ms. Xiao Xiaofang cooked a table of delicious food. She took off her apron and threw it aside: "Come on, son, help me move the table and take out the bottle of red wine for me."
"Is it this bottle?" Gu Chen casually took out a bottle.
There are many red wines like this at home and even more in warehouses.
"Yes, this is a gift from your Aunt Zhang." During the conversation, Ms. Xiao Xiaofang brought out two more dishes from the kitchen.
Gu Chen quickly thought about it, could this Aunt Zhang be met by Ms. Xiao Xiaofang when she was dancing in the square?
Gu Baichuan walked past the dining table, took a look at his favorite shrimp, and asked, "An extra meal tonight?"
"Isn't it?" Ms. Xiao Xiaofang pulled out a stool and said, "When my son comes home from work for the first time, he must encourage him."
Then she looked at Gu Chen again: "Isn't that right, son?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Gu Chen had already washed his hands and sat obediently waiting for his meal.
This is the happiest moment for a family after a tiring day.
In Gu Chen's impression, when he was a child, his parents eventually started their own businesses because of the private ownership reforms in their workplaces.
At that time, the family lived in a small rented house in the wholesale market in the south of the city. The two parents were busy every day and rarely had meals with Gu Chen.
One night, Gu Chen was huddled alone in a rental house. It was dark outside, but Gu Chen suddenly rushed out of the room like crazy and said thank you loudly to the sprinkler truck outside.
Because that day, the music played by the sprinkler truck was Happy Birthday, and that day happened to be Gu Chen's tenth birthday.
At that time, Gu's father and mother Gu were still pursuing payment for goods at a buyer's house in another place, and there was no way they could go home.
But when Gu Chen returned to the rental house, he found Zhang Jingde from the Xingfu Community Police Station, with a group of his young apprentices, carrying a big cake to celebrate his birthday.
At that time, Gu Chen was laughing and crying...
I thought it was great to be a police officer. I could get together for birthdays. At least, there would be many people saying happy birthday to me.
At that time, Gu Chen didn't know what police meant. He always felt an inexplicable sense of security when he saw the uniform.
And now, he has become the person he admired most at that time.
"Son, what are you thinking about? You don't eat vegetables?" Ms. Xiao Xiaofang opened the red wine and interrupted Gu Chen's thoughts.
Comrade Gu Baichuan, on the other hand, could not wait any longer and started to eat on his own. Just as he was attacking a shrimp, Ms. Xiao Xiaofang successfully repelled his attack.
"Don't eat yet. My son has just joined the job. We have to celebrate and clink glasses."
"The family is not that particular." Comrade Gu Baichuan had no choice but to raise his glass again: "Gu Chen, you have to pay attention to your image as a policeman. You are not the only person you represent."
"Understood." Gu Chen raised his glass and the family officially started dinner.
"Son, you are the first policeman in our family. We have relatives who live in the sea, land and air. Now you are the only policeman." Ms. Xiao Xiaofang was also very excited.
Gu Chen smiled bitterly, thinking to himself, are you trying to get a mascot?
"I'm not a formal police officer yet, I'm just a trainee police officer," Gu Chen said.
"Then try to get a police card as soon as possible. You must wear a police uniform when you go home." Comrade Gu Baichuan's vanity must be satisfied.
Gu Chen lowered his head to eat the food and changed the subject: "Is today's Pipi shrimp too salty?"
"Is it salty?" Ms. Xiao Xiaofang took a sip and said, "It's okay."
"Sometimes, I really admire the first person to eat Pipi shrimps, right?" Gu Chen looked at the Pipi shrimps without much appetite: "If you look like a monster, that's like a crazy person.
Small shovel."
"So through the behavior of our Chinese people who dare to eat shrimps and hairy crabs, we can think that there will never be Godzilla in China." Comrade Gu Baichuan also joined in the ridicule.
"That's right." Ms. Xiao Xiaofang took a sip of red wine and said, "Because things like Godzilla can't grow that big at all. When it grows to a relatively edible and plump state, it has already grown.
It’s either spicy, or thirteen-flavored, boiled, or minced garlic.”
"Yes, I agree with Her Majesty the Queen." Comrade Gu Baichuan nodded, eating the shrimps in his mouth with relish.
"So, if our directors can't make any decent monster movies, we can't blame them entirely." Gu Chen also laughed and said, "Because we can't have such a big monster here, right?"
"Of course." In the end, it was Comrade Gu Baichuan who put the finishing touch and concluded profoundly: "We made these monsters into another film called "A Bite of China" when we were young."
"Dang! Dang! Dang!"
The wine glasses clinked together again, and the family joked that it was just like this, an interesting family.
"Is Lao Gu here?" At this moment, everyone heard Zhang Jingde knocking on the door.
"This guy came on time." Comrade Gu Baichuan put down his glass and said, "I'll open the door."
Zhang Jingde was invited into the house, followed by Aunt Hu, a tailor who had just come out of the hospital.
"What's going on?" Xiao Xiaofang stood up and looked at the door with confusion.
Zhang Jingde said with a smile: "Isn't this what Xiao Gu helped solve the case today? He helped Sister Hu recover the inherited golden Buddha. They came to our police station specially to send banners and fruits. How can I bear this?
"
"Why can't you bear it? That's right." Gu Baichuan, who didn't know the situation, also looked confused.
Ms. Xiao Xiaofang quickly stepped forward and called Aunt Hu at the door to come in: "Don't stand outside, everyone come in."
"Alas!" Sister Hu sighed and put all the fruit gifts in her hands on the ground.
"Why are you bringing things with you?" Ms. Xiao Xiaofang was confused: "It's right for Gu Chen to help. We are all neighbors, so don't be so polite to us."
"That's what I said." Zhang Jingde also smiled bitterly: "But Sister Hu insisted on stuffing things into our police station. Look, this case was not solved by me, Zhang Jingde. It was deduced by Gu Chen using trace science.
If I accept this thing from you, my disciples will be embarrassed to death, so I have no choice but to bring her here."
Aunt Hu walked through the crowd and found Gu Chen: "Are you Xiao Gu? Thank you, thank you very much."
"This is what the people's police should do." Gu Chen looked at Aunt Hu and asked, "Are you feeling better?"
"It's better, it's better." Aunt Hu lowered her head with a look of remorse: "It's all my fault. I was usually too harsh on my niece Lulu, which made her resent me and steal the ancestral golden Buddha.
, it’s all my fault.”
"You should be liberal about everything. After all, just because she is your niece, the police cannot not arrest her. It is the bounden duty of our police to prosecute those who break the law."
Although Gu Chen said it well, in fact, Gu Chen didn't want this kind of thing to happen to him.
Everyone chatted for a while in the living room, and after being polite in every possible way, Gu Chen had no choice but to accept a bag of apples and return other valuable items to Aunt Hu.
At this time, the mechanical female voice in Gu Chen's mind sounded again.
"The novice mission 'Small Test of Skills' has been completed. I helped Zhang Jingde solve the case and received satisfactory recognition. I will be rewarded with a junior treasure box."
Gu Chen quickly rubbed his eyes, wondering what would happen this time?
