Arriving outside a compound, Chu Qianqian took the initiative to take out his work ID card from his coat pocket without waiting for the guard on guard to speak.
And in order to avoid trouble, he just put his armed belt and gun into the warehouse.
After checking the ID, the guard asked Chu Xiangqian who he was looking for, and finally made a phone call to go in. Soon he saw Xue Jianguo coming out to pick him up on a bicycle.
Entering the courtyard, when Chu Qianqian and Xue Jianguo were chatting, several young men saw the two from a distance, and looked at each other, secretly wondering who this kid is?
Zhang Haiyang raised his palms fiercely and whispered, "Brothers, could this guy be Sister Lan's blind date?"
It is true that Xue Jinglan has mysophobia, but she is not really crazy or has a brain problem.
On weekdays, I get along with, talk to, and treat others normally.
Coupled with her beauty, Zhang Haiyang, a young man, felt sympathy for Xue Jinglan but also regarded Xue Jinglan as a cabbage in his yard.
Only then would I beat up the boy who went on a blind date with Xue Jinglan but then said bad things about Xue Jinglan behind his back.
Now that I see Chu looking like a dog before me, I feel dissatisfied.
"Let's go and test this guy's quality first, lest he turns out to be a man with a cruel heart."
Several boys nodded quickly and followed Zhang Haiyang towards Xue Jianguo and Chu Qianqian.
"Brother Jianguo, who is this guy? You don't want to introduce him to us, brother?"
Xue Jianguo knew what boys like Zhang Haiyang were thinking at a glance, "Gungun, don't blame me for not reminding you, brother, the big fish I gave you last time was caught by my brother from the Yu River."
p>
Zhang Haiyang was stunned, remembering the stick noodles he had exchanged for half a fish at the pigeon market a few days ago, and the fish stew made from the remaining half of the big fish, which made him feel full.
Most of the hostility toward Chu Xiangqian subsided immediately.
Then he saw two bamboo baskets tied to the back seat of Chu Qianqian's bicycle.
A boy who looked about twelve or thirteen years old reached out and wanted to open the bamboo cover and take a look.
Chu Qianqian couldn't help but frown, and just as he was about to teach this kid a lesson, he saw Zhang Haiyang, with quick eyes and quick hands, grabbed his companion's back collar and pulled him to his side.
"What are you doing! Isn't it annoying?"
The boy was stunned for a moment, then realized that he reached out and opened the bamboo basket without even asking a question. It really didn't make sense.
He scratched his head in embarrassment and muttered, ‘I just want to take a look.’
Zhang Haiyang slapped his companion on the forehead and lectured, "What are you looking at? If word gets out, don't let it be said that we are working together to bully outsiders?"
Then he smiled at Chu Qianqian and nodded, muttering "I'm sorry", and pulled a few companions away.
Chu Xiangqian now looked at these little guys in a new light.
And at this time, he also realized that this boy named Zhang Haiyang should be a character in a TV series.
Then I thought of Zhong Yuemin.
But if you think about it carefully, Zhong Yuemin and Zhang Haiyang do not live in the same compound.
It’s normal if you don’t see him.
Xue Jianguo smiled and shook his head, "Go forward, these guys are good people, but they are a little noisy in the yard."
Chu Qianqian nodded carelessly, "Let's go, second brother, so that my uncle and aunt won't have to wait too long."
Xue Jianguo hurriedly led the way, but then said, "Last time, it was Zhang Haiyang and those boys who vented their anger on my sister. They put a sack on my father's friend's boy outside and beat him severely."<
/p>
Now it was Chu Xiangqian's turn. Since Xue Jianguo's accident, although Xue Jianguo didn't say it explicitly, he knew it was probably a blind date after thinking about it.
Any other brother would have to keep this kind of thing a secret, but Xue Jianguo actually said it directly.
I don’t know whether to say that he has no brains or that he is wise and foolish. It’s better to say it clearly first, so that no one will have to worry about Xue Jinglan’s blind date and causing unnecessary trouble.
Chu Qianqian laughed, "Then I have to treat them to a good meal."
Seeing what he said, Xue Jianguo immediately became happy, "Then when I'm free, you will provide the meat, I will provide the wine and food, and then we will invite them all to have a meal together."
Chu Qianqian smiled and nodded. If it were Zhong Yuemin, he would have to think about it. In fact, that kid is an unreliable master.
And calculating the time, Zhong Yuemin might only be thirteen or fourteen years old at this time. There is no need to deal with such a boy.
Then I thought of Zhou Xiaobai, a little girl maybe only eleven or twelve years old.
I have no interest in it either.
The two of them arrived in front of a two-story building while chatting and laughing, and saw Xue Hongmei and a young man in his twenties and seventies wearing an old-fashioned military uniform standing at the door to greet them.
Chu Xiangqian thought for a moment and guessed that this person should be Xue Jianguo's eldest brother.
Sure enough, Xue Jianguo set up his bicycle and said to Chu Qianqian, "Qianqian, this is my eldest brother Xue Jianrong. As for my aunt, I definitely don't need to introduce her."
Chu Qianqian hurriedly got out of the car. The eldest son of Xue went out to greet him, and the second son came out of the compound to pick him up. This was considered a good deal.
After setting up his bicycle, he saluted Xue Jianrong, who had already walked down the steps and reached out his hand, and then shook hands with him.
"Hello, Brother Xue, my name is Chu Xiangqian."
Xue Jianrong's impression of Chu Xiangqian was originally very good because of the unabashed praise from his aunt Xue Hongmei and his second brother Xue Jianguo.
Now I see Chu Qianqian first saluting and then shaking hands with him, it feels even better.
"Let's go, the weather is getting colder and colder. Come inside and have a cup of hot tea to keep warm."
Xue Hongmei couldn't help but feel proud when she saw her eldest nephew's attitude towards Chu Xiangqian was so enthusiastic.
He secretly thought that Chu Xiangqian was indeed his niece and son-in-law whom he fell in love with at first sight. Even if he was the first to meet his eldest nephew, who always had a straight face, he could easily gain his favor.
Seeing Xue Jianguo curling his lips at the side, he couldn't help but ordered, "Jianguo, what are you still doing? Quickly move in the gifts you brought forward."
Xue Jianguo became even more unhappy now.
However, he was also curious about what else Chu Xiangqian brought besides the half-sika deer he told him about.
After all, there is no way that half a sika deer needs two bamboo baskets to contain it.
Chu Xiangqian hurriedly explained, "Second brother, I thought that Aunt Xue took such good care of me in the work, so I simply gave her a hind leg as a thank you. It's not that I didn't listen to you on purpose."
Only then did Xue Jianguo react, secretly thinking that this guy really knows how to behave.
Xue Jianrong's eyes lit up.
It is said that there has never been a shortage of food in the army, but it is one thing to eat some, but it is difficult to eat enough to supplement nutrition for the men.
Just relying on the pigs raised by the army, you can only eat a bite of pig-killing vegetables during the Chinese New Year.
Moreover, if only pig grass is fed to pigs, the pigs will not gain much fat in a year.
As for hunting in the mountains, there was no shortage of people or weapons, but the superiors refused to let him go, and Xue Jianrong had nothing to do.
Strictly speaking, the prey in the mountains these days belongs to the collective property of the public or each village or commune.
When ordinary people go into the mountains to hunt, no one cares about it, and the superiors even encourage it. But if the troops want to go into the mountains to hunt, they just have to wait for a report.
And in the end, they basically disagree.
Since Chu Xiangqian had the ability to go into the mountains to get game and go fishing on the river in the winter, Xue Jianrong naturally thought about how to get some meat and fish from Chu Xiangqian to nourish his men.
Chu Xiangqian naturally had no objection to this, and was even willing to give it to him for free.
After all, I am happy to give it to the people's soldiers.
But everything must have a regulation or explanation.
As long as the procedures and reasons are clear, he will help. Otherwise, just think about it, you will definitely be in trouble.
When Xue Jianrong heard that Chu Xiangqian took the initiative to talk about this matter, he was happy at first, but when he heard Chu Xiangqian said that he wanted to have a name, he couldn't help but frown.
However, Xue Hongmei patted Chu Qianqian on the shoulder and said, "This is easy. Didn't our street say that we should distribute some meat to the poor households and military insured households in the area?
Simply ask the director to report to the superiors and help each other with Jianrong's unit.
Normally, we let the young soldiers come to the area to dredge rivers, repair dilapidated buildings, and train militiamen. Our street gives back some food to the troops, and even cooks a meal at the militia training ground or even in the wild. Who can say anything."
/p>
After hearing this, Chu Xiangqian gave Xue Hongmei a thumbs up. Even if he wanted to help his uncle, he couldn't pat his chest and guarantee the protein of a battalion of young soldiers.
But if you come once a month, then things will be simple and easy to handle.
And it’s also a good thing for the streets.
Even the apparent benefits were given to the street, and Chu Xiangqian was willing to do so.
Entering the room, Chu Qianqian saw Xue Xueli sitting on the main seat.
Seeing that the old man had a sullen face, he quickly saluted and shouted in a loud voice, "Hello, Chief."
Xue Xueli scanned Chu Qianqian and back carefully, and saw that he was tall and tall, with a resolute look on his face. He secretly thought that his two grandsons were standing in front of him, and they were faintly compared to each other.
Can't help but nod with satisfaction.
On the side, Xue Xiaomin, Tan Youli, his wife, and the old lady also had a good first impression of Chu Xiangqian.
He couldn't help but nodded slightly to Xue Hongmei, indicating that he recognized her vision.
As for the protagonist Xue Jinglan, her face was already red at this time, and her nervous palms were all sweaty.
When I secretly glanced at Chu Xiangqian, I saw him and his parents. After greeting his grandma, he smiled and nodded to me, and immediately lowered his head in shame.
When everyone saw this, they couldn't help but twist their lips and laughed secretly.
From the looks of it, the two of them have good senses for each other. If Xiao Chu is really a tidy person, then the two of them will have a solid foundation to achieve good things.
Xue Xiaomin looked at his biological father Xue Xueli and said, "Dad, since Xiao Chu has become acquainted with us, would you like to come to the table and treat Xiao Chu to a drink?"
When Chu Xiangqian heard this, he guessed that he definitely wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to get drunk and see how he behaved after being drunk.
If you want to judge a person's character based on his drink, it is naturally not comprehensive, but if he doesn't make trouble when he is drunk, and he is not loud, it at least shows that the person has a pretty good character.
Xue Xueli nodded.
When everyone took their seats, Chu Xiangqian naturally stood at the last seat. However, Xue Xueli said he was dissatisfied with Chu Xiangqian, but in his heart he valued him very much.
Pull Chu forward and sit on your left hand side.
Chu Qianqian was unwilling, so he turned around and helped the old lady, "Grandma, let me help you sit down."
The old lady was so happy that she smiled crookedly. Others were also very satisfied with Chu Xiangqian's performance.
Finally, because the old lady sat on the left side of the main seat, the woman naturally sat under her, and the man sat on Xue Xueli's right.
With such a light, Chu Qianqian and Xue Jinglan, the two youngest, naturally sat next to each other with only half a meter apart.
Chu Xiangqian wanted to talk to Xue Jinglan, but he knew in his heart that he must not show any frivolity at this time.
And even in the next few decades, it would be extremely impolite and mindless to whisper to a girl in front of her parents, grandparents, eldest brother, and second brother.
Xue Jinglan was so ashamed and flustered that she even felt dizzy when she smelled the sunshine emanating from Chu Qianqian's clothes.
How dare you raise your head to see Chu Xiangqian.
Xue Xueli rolled his eyes at his granddaughter and secretly said that Xue Jinglan has no future.
He picked up a bottle of Bamboo Leaf Green on the table and asked, "Xiao Chu, how's your drinking capacity?"
Chu Xiangqian smiled and said, "Chief, the lie is that three or five pounds is fine, but the truth is that I have never been drunk."
Everyone was stunned. Tan Youli secretly glanced at her sister-in-law Xue Hongmei. Xue Hongmei shook her head hurriedly, indicating that she didn't know about Chu Qianqian's drinking.
Xue Xiaomin was about to say, today is just a family dinner, just drink whatever you want.
But Xue Xueli's eyes lit up, "Xiao Chu, if I drink you down later, don't blame me for making you drink."
Chu Xiangqian said nonchalantly, "Chief, if you want to have a drink with someone in the future, just take me there, and I promise not to embarrass you.
As for today’s drink, how about I have a few drinks with Brother Jianrong and Brother Jianguo?"
Everyone secretly thought that Chu Xiangqian probably wasn't bragging. After all, it was obvious that he wanted to go one-on-one.
If this is a lie, it will be too easy to expose the lie.
The old lady hurriedly said to Xue Xueli, "His father, I think we can just let Jianrong and Jianguo accompany Xiaochu."
Xue Xueli knew what his wife meant. If a guest comes to your door for the first time, it will not sound good if the three generations of ancestors and grandchildren drink wine.
But he was worried that Chu Xiangqian had seen through his thoughts and deliberately used words to confuse him.
But then I thought about it, if Chu Xiangqian could really drink his two grandsons down, the amount of alcohol would be three to five kilograms at least.
"Okay, you three can drink by yourself, but Jianrong and Jianguo must take care of Xiao Chu."
Xue Jianrong and Xue Jianguo hurriedly promised.
After Xue Xueli moved his chopsticks first, the atmosphere suddenly became lively.
Chu Xiangqian also noticed that Xue Jinglan, who was beside him, did not show much abnormality while eating.
Little did they know that the Xue family members at the table had long been amazed.
In the past, when the Xue family ate, in order to take care of Xue Jinglan, each person would have two pairs of chopsticks.
Of course, if there are outsiders, the Xue family will not put two pairs of chopsticks on the table for the guests. They will simply serve only men.
Women eat all their food in the kitchen to avoid more gossip or even being used to cause trouble.
But today Xue Jinglan seems to have forgotten her problem. Although she doesn't use chopsticks to pick up food many times, her overall performance seems to be that she has no mysophobia at all.
Tan Youli rolled her eyes at Xue Jinglan and secretly said that her daughter was hopeless.
But if you think about it carefully, this is actually quite good.
If you really get together with Chu Qianqian in the future, at least you won’t have too much trouble in your life.
Chu Xiangqian saw Xue Jinglan next to him after finishing half a bowl of rice, then putting down his bowl and chopsticks and sitting silently. He suddenly wanted to go out for a walk with her.
He picked up the wine glass and said to Xue Jianguo on the right, "Second brother, we have known each other for the longest time and get along best. This is the first time we have a drink. After all, we have to drink three glasses to reflect our relationship." Xue Jianguo looked at the wine glasses in front of him, which contained at least 3 taels each, and was immediately frightened by Chu Qianqian's suggestion that he had to drink three glasses.
No matter how good a drinker you are, if you drink 3 glasses of 9 taels of white wine in a row, you will get drunk after drinking it.
But Chu Xiangqian couldn't talk to him, so he picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Xue Jianguo, then raised his head and took a sip.
This time he really drank. After all, he cheated on the first cup, which is really unjustifiable.
Three cups were consumed in succession, and this momentum made Xue Jianrong beside him feel weak.
After Xue Jianguo drank three cups, his stomach suddenly felt like it was on fire.
Chu Qianqian laughed, picked up the wine bottle on the table and started pouring wine, and then went to serve Xue Jianrong's wine without any hesitation.
