Chapter 697 You are enough! (5100 words) Ask for a monthly ticket
Xia Zekai called his brother aside and asked him: "Zejiang, how come your and Xiao Shen's wallets were stolen? Your ID cards and bank cards were also lost?"
"It's lost." Xia Zejiang was asked about this by his brother, and he was still aggrieved. He muttered: "Brother, don't mention it. I was afraid of something happening on the way, so Jiayi also put her wallet with me. Both of ours
I put all my wallets together, and then I fell asleep halfway because I was too sleepy. When I woke up, I discovered that the eyeless thing had cut off my bag and took away both wallets."
After hearing what his brother said, Xia Zekai was quite speechless. Co-author James Tobin said it best, don't put all your eggs in the same basket.
Speaking from experience.
"You are really capable. It's only a 40-minute journey and you can still sleep." Xia Zekai didn't even bother to say anything to him.
Unexpectedly, Xia Zejiang muttered: "Brother, I can't help it. I have been busy working on projects recently and haven't had a sound sleep for several days."
"You want to write a paper?" Xia Zekai immediately grasped the key point.
Xia Zejiang nodded and said, "Jiayi and I both have to write papers. We have been very busy recently, and we didn't think this could happen on the train. We both fell asleep on the way back."
"Forget it, it doesn't matter how much money you have. As long as you are fine, report the loss later and replace your ID and bank card as soon as possible, otherwise you will be in trouble." Xia Zekai reminded his brother.
Xia Zejiang behaved as usual, nodded and said: "I'm thinking about going back to my hometown with my dad in two days, and make up my ID card first, otherwise it will be inconvenient to do anything."
On the other side, Shen Jiayi was talking to her 'future mother-in-law' and 'sister-in-law', talking about what she and Xia Zejiang were doing in school, and how they were about to graduate and what their future plans were.
Xia Zejiang has thought about it. After graduation, he will process supporting packaging materials for his brother. For the sake of his future children, he will give up his old face and make money first.
Zhou Yinghong mentioned, intentionally or unintentionally, that her nephew Zhao Ting would get married tomorrow. Luo Xiyun and Shen Jiayi understood what she meant. She just wanted to hint that Shen Jiayi and Xia Zejiang would get married as soon as possible.
Shen Jiayi said openly, "Auntie, don't worry, Zejiang and I have already made plans to get married after we graduate."
This girl says whatever she wants, fine!
Zhou Yinghong smiled happily and was very happy!
Luo Xiyun said: "Mom, you have to be ready to prepare a banquet at all times."
"Okay." Zhou Yinghong agreed happily, even if she spent a lot of money.
But she still felt a little guilty towards her eldest daughter-in-law. She always felt that when her eldest son got married, the family was a little shabby and they had nothing to offer and no decent place.
It was their son's first house, and the couple had to put together tens of thousands of yuan for the down payment. Otherwise, she would feel even more guilty and always feel that she owed her boss.
When you are a mother-in-law, you can get a bowl of water.
When Shen Jiayi accompanied her grandfather Xia Shande to talk, Zhou Yinghong looked at her eldest daughter-in-law with a little apology on her face and said: "Xiyun, when you and Zekai got married, our family's conditions were not good and we couldn't offer anything...
"
Before she could finish speaking, Luo Xiyun quickly stopped her: "Mom, we are all a family, please don't say that, otherwise I will be really angry."
Zhou Yinghong grabbed Luo Xiyun's hand and held it tighter.
…
The eldest brother went on a long trip to escort the car and came back today. Zhao Ting is getting married tomorrow. He came to Ziyu Garden Community this afternoon. The brothers have to go to Century Garden later to see if there are any
What can I help with.
The second aunt, Xia Guilian, has also come from her hometown. She is currently talking to Xia Zekai's old father. Her first reaction when she saw her nephew's house was also very incredible.
It was so big that the walls of two houses were cut through to make one house. This operation was unheard of and she didn't know what to say.
Xia Zekai and his wife were entertaining relatives from their hometown at home, and they went over first.
Century Garden, Zhao Ting's wedding room is also very lively. The whole home is decorated in a very festive and bright way, which makes people feel bright as soon as they enter.
Zhao Ting hasn't rested yet, and he doesn't plan to rest tonight either. He is thinking of staying up all night and going out early to pick up his wife home tomorrow.
"Brother, why are you here?" Zhao Ting was very happy to see several cousins.
Xia Yunfei teased him: "Oh, brother, I look even more handsome now that I am the groom's officer."
"Brother, please stop teasing me. I wasn't nervous before, but why am I getting more and more nervous now?" Zhao Ting said.
Xia Yunhui also teased him: "Brother, you have made a lot of money and married both of you at once."
"puff!"
Brother-in-law Qi Lixin, who was helping here, was unprepared and sprayed water directly on the ground.
Zhao Yan said to him with a look of disgust: "Old Qi, look at how old you are, how can you still be so stupid?"
The brothers burst out laughing.
For a while, the house became lively.
The brothers still want to play cards, and the six of us have just reached the right level. The night is long, so let’s play!
Let's fight, but the wedding room has just been decorated, and I didn't even think about buying cards in advance.
Zhao Yan also said: "Brother, you guys drink tea first, while I go to the supermarket at the door to buy cards!"
"Yan, let's forget it. It's already this hour, and they might have closed early. Let's talk. If anyone is sleepy, they can lay on the floor." Big brother Xia Yunfei waved his hand directly, preventing her from going out.
The bed in the wedding room must not be slept on.
Zhao Ting said: "Brother, why don't you go back and rest first? There is nothing to do tonight. You can just come over early tomorrow."
"What time does the wedding take place? Or is it four-thirty?" Xia Zekai asked him.
He said: "I will ask Wang Yi to stay today and drive the wedding car for you early tomorrow morning."
"Brother, thank you!"
Zhao Ting accepted his cousin's kindness. No one else dared to drive his Bentley Mulsanne. If it got bumped halfway, it would cost a lot of money to repair the car.
After the agreement was made, Xia Zekai and his four brothers hurried back, but the aunt from their hometown did not come. I heard that the eldest uncle was not well and was hospitalized, so the aunt went to the hospital to accompany him.
Everyone else survived the night with Xia Zekai.
The New Year's Day of 2011 came quietly in the sleep of many people. Unlike many people who celebrate New Year's Eve, few people celebrate New Year's Day. Xia Zekai didn't have this habit either. He slept until 3:30 in the morning and opened the door.
My eyes, it's so dark outside, I can't even see the moon, I'm blind!
After getting up and going to the bathroom of the master bedroom to wash his face and solve his personal problems, he went to the next room, knocked on the door, and woke up his younger brother Xia Zejiang. The two brothers went downstairs to call the eldest and second brothers.
"Zekai, you got up so early!" The second brother Xia Yunhui said, rubbing his eyes before he woke up.
Xia Zekai pointed to the radar watch on his wrist and said, "Brother, it's half past three. Zhao Ting will have to go out to pick up his bride soon."
"Ouch, I almost missed the point."
…
At this time, Zhao Ting's place was bustling. Before four o'clock, a bus stopped at the gate of Century Garden Community. He had received a phone call earlier. Qi Lixin, who was waiting here, quickly got on the bus.
The relatives who came down were all taken to brother-in-law Zhao Ting's wedding room.
A house of more than 100 square meters is actually not too small, but there are dozens of relatives coming from my hometown. Once I stop at home, it suddenly becomes clear that the space is not big enough, and the crowded people can't even walk.
The discerning man came out of the house again and stood smoking in the open space downstairs. Three or two people gathered in a group and talked under the dim street lights in the community. Looking at the community, someone would praise Zhao Ting from time to time.
, saying he is capable, look at the houses in this community are not cheap!
"No, my nephew is definitely capable. I heard from brother Zhao Qian that my nephew has already bought a BMW. You know, BMW cars have hundreds of thousands of miles on them." A man said proudly while smoking.
Another person said: "Okay, let's see what you can do. Zhao Ting bought the car himself, not you. I see that the houses in this community are not cheap."
"I asked whether the row of cars parked at the door are wedding cars. I just got out of the car and took a look. There were flowers on them. They looked really grand."
"I didn't look carefully. If I really pricked this flower, I wouldn't have run away. This kid Zhao Ting is really capable. He has developed quietly in just a few years. Tsk tsk!"
"I've even thought about having sex with Brother Zhao Ting. Uncle, do you think he would agree?"
"Who knows? Just ask him yourself!"
When Xia Zekai and his four brothers drove over in his wife's Porsche Panamera, the lights that tore through the darkness immediately attracted many people downstairs to look over.
After Xia Zekai parked the car, the four brothers got out of the car. The eldest brother couldn't help but admired: "Okay, this car is really good."
"It's just that this car is a bit criticized. When you buy a car, you have to choose the configurations. Many configurations are useless and cost you a lot of money." The second brother Xia Yunhui complained. He also asked Xia Zekai: "Brother, this car
How many configurations have you added?"
Xia Zekai shook his head: "Original car, I'll add wool to it to get rid of their problems."
The eldest brother directly raised his thumb and gave a thumbs up.
The youngest Xia Zejiang doesn't understand any of this. He is thinking about buying a car and driving it if he can make money this year, even if he buys a cheap car first.
He can't ask his wife and children to squeeze into the bus when they go out. It's very inconvenient when it's windy and rainy.
The brothers were talking. The people talking next to them glanced at the light of the street lamp for a few times, and someone muttered: "Hey, is that the child of Brother Wei Cheng's family? Why does it look familiar to me?"
"Zhao Gen, who is it?" someone asked.
The middle-aged man who was called "Zhao Gen" said: "This is the home of brother Zhao Qian and his second uncle. Have you forgotten?"
He is also an electrician and has a "colleague" relationship with Xia Weicheng, and the two families often travel frequently.
Hearing him mention this, everyone else was also surprised.
When Xia Zekai and the others walked in, Zhao Gen asked, "Are you Zekai?"
"Hey, this isn't Uncle Gen. You're here too today. My dad is here too. You two should have a good drink at noon."
It suddenly became more lively.
Xia Zekai also asked him: "Uncle Gen, what are you doing down there on such a cold day? Come up."
"Hey, there are too many people and we can't go up. We might as well smoke a cigarette and chat down there." Zhao Gen said.
As he spoke, he took another puff of the cigarette. The light from the cigarette butt flickered on and off in the dark night. It matched perfectly with his breathing, making people admire the charm of 'smoke'.
Hearing what he said, the four brothers looked at each other, and the second brother joked: "Zekai, I will still have to buy a villa like you in the future, and I will have to get one or two acres of land in the yard, otherwise there will be more people standing there."
There is no place left.”
There's nothing wrong with this. Everyone wants to buy a villa, but the key is that their pockets don't support it.
Xia Zekai said: "I went over to take a look last Sunday and asked the company's designers to provide renderings. When the villa is decorated, I will definitely invite you over for a drink."
They really didn't know. When they heard what Xia Zekai said, they were stunned for a few seconds. Xia Zejiang also asked: "Brother, you started decorating so soon? Are you going to live there this year? Has the big garbage pit over there been dealt with?"
"How long have you not paid attention to it? Trees and other green plants have begun to be planted over there. Now the house prices have almost doubled. You can consider buying your house." Xia Zekai told him.
The relatives next to me were listening to what the brothers were talking about, but they couldn't get a word in. What kind of villa and what kind of house were they talking about? Why did they feel that buying a house was so easy in the mouths of the brothers?
Old men who have been busy all their lives and haven't saved much money are beginning to doubt life.
Zhao Ting walked out from home on time at 4:30, preparing to get in the car to pick up her bride.
There were several young men around him, chatting happily with him.
These are all kids who came from my hometown, brother.
Zhao Ting was still wondering why his cousins hadn't come yet. When he walked to the streetlight downstairs, he saw more than a dozen people standing there, including his four cousins.
"Brother, why didn't you go up just now?"
Xia Yunfei said: "There are many people here today. It's quite crowded up there. We might as well talk down below."
Zhao Qian followed him downstairs. When he saw that his son was not leaving, he quickly said: "Ting, the time is up. We can't miss the time to pick up the bride. Let's talk when we come back."
When he walked in, he realized that they were some nephews. He explained again: "Yunfei, Yunhui, Zekai, Zejiang, you can go too. There are more people and it will be lively."
The four brothers looked at each other and nodded directly in agreement.
…
Zhao Jiarui is pregnant. No one dared to make a fuss during the wedding for fear of an accident. What will happen then?
No one in Zhao Jiarui's family deliberately made things difficult for them.
Jiarui found a good partner. His career was flourishing at a young age. He said he wanted to buy a car and immediately picked up a BMW. When he said he wanted to buy a house, he went to Century Garden to buy a house for the prospective marriage.
Although it is second-hand, anyone who is local to Qicheng knows where Century Garden is. It is a famous high-priced community, that is, a high-end community.
Where can someone pay the full amount in one go? It doesn’t matter if it’s a first-hand or second-hand house, just ask you, is that okay?
…
Xia Zejiang watched his cousin carrying his cousin's wife into the wedding car, and he began to envision the scene of his marriage to Shen Jiayi.
Xia Zekai saw it, he came over and asked: "Zejiang, are you thinking about getting married?"
"Brother, I'm lying if I say I don't want to, but it won't be long." Xia Zejiang said it calmly and generously. He said: "We will basically finish the work in May and June. I am thinking about supporting your company after I graduate."
Packaging material processing, see if it works."
"Look at your potential, if you want to do it, do it big." Xia Zekai slapped him on the back.
Xia Zejiang also wanted to do something big, but he had to eat the food one bite at a time and drink the water one bite at a time, otherwise he would easily choke to death.
"Take your time. If I get more money, I will definitely do something bigger." Xia Zejiang did not deny this at all.
Xia Zekai finally nodded: "Come over after you graduate."
"However, I will tell you the ugly things first. If something goes wrong, I will be the first to kill you." Xia Zekai said this.
"Well, you'd better remember what I said today." Xia Zekai got in the car and followed.
Xia Zejiang got on the next train.
In the wedding car in front, it was Zhao Jiarui's first time riding in this Bentley. She felt it carefully and said, "Husband, this car is so comfortable to sit in."
"Well, the naked car price of more than 5 million is listed there, you think it's a joke." Zhao Ting didn't answer, he couldn't afford it.
Zhao Jiarui was pregnant for more than three months, and the wedding ceremony was strictly routine.
Luo Xiyun didn't know when she came over. She looked enviously at Zhao Ting and Zhao Jiarui who were holding a wedding ceremony on the stage, and said, "This ceremony is really beautiful."
"Daughter-in-law, do you like it?" Xia Zekai held her hand and asked her.
Luo Xiyun was too lazy to give him a look and said, "Isn't this nonsense? What woman wouldn't like such an elaborate wedding ceremony?"
"Then you set a time, and I will carry the sedan in sixteen years and hold a Chinese-style wedding ceremony with you again." Xia Zekai said with a smile.
For a moment, Luo Xiyun turned her head and looked at Xia Zekai's smiling face. Her eyes flickered and she was a little moved, but in the end she shook her head: "That won't work. The most satisfying thing in a person's life is to get married once. Let's hold it again.
It’s a wedding, what’s going on?”
"Are you stupid? We are not asking for a divorce certificate, we are just holding a ceremony." Xia Zekai raised his hand and tapped her head lightly and said, "If you like it, we will hold a ceremony once a year."
"What's wrong!" Luo Xiyun said with joy in his heart, a typical misunderstanding.
She finally shook her head: "Forget it, as long as I have you, I'm already content."
A simple sentence made Xia Zekai feel that the responsibility on him was even heavier.
Not seeing Yatou and Tongtong, he asked: "Where are Yatou and Tongtong?"
"I went there to play with my mother," Luo Xiyun said.
The ceremony on the stage is gradually coming to an end, and the excitement off the stage has just begun. The waiters in the hotel have already started serving food.
Before I knew it, the first day of the new year had passed.
