Zhang Jiangang knew that most of the old men and women of his age in this life had several brothers and sisters. At that time, the emphasis was on strength in numbers, and the flames of fire were high when everyone added fuel. For example, there were four brothers and sisters in his family, and there was an eldest brother among them.
But it is said that he died when he was three years old.
Fortunately, the relationship between the brothers and sisters is pretty good, except for the youngest, Zhang Jianfang, who just turned 54 this year.
Without him, the fourth child went to study abroad and married an American old man at a young age. In my memory, the old man in this life was so angry that he was almost kicked out of the house.
Even when the old man and his wife passed away, the fourth sister did not come back until two or three months later. She stayed in the United States for a week and then returned to the United States.
Zhang Weiping is his younger brother's son. When I wished him well some time ago, his second brother Zhang Jiangang and his son Weiping came to the hospital to see me.
Weiping is a very filial child, but sometimes a little reserved and arrogant. As a top student at a domestic medical university, I heard that he is already working as an attending surgeon in a famous private hospital at a young age.
However, due to his identity and background, the hospital had not evaluated him as the deputy director and chief physician several times. I heard that many doctors and nurses in the hospital felt sorry for his nephew.
However, this kid didn't dare to be cold when meeting Zhang Jiangang, because he was beaten by Zhang Jiangang many times when he was a child.
It's strange to say that the more you beat him, the more this kid ran towards me when he was a child.
After saying goodbye to a group of old men and women, Zhang Jiangang hurried home carrying his own radio.
When Zhang Jiangang returned home, a gentle, aloof young man wearing rimless glasses stood up from the sofa.
"Weiping is here, sit down. How are your parents?" Zhang Jiangang said looking at his eldest nephew.
"Everything is fine. Uncle, you look good." Looking at his uncle, Zhang Weiping said with a smile, a little surprised.
I remember that my uncle was very sick some time ago, but that was not the case today at all. With such energy and aura, I thought the dean had come back from get off work.
"The mentality is good, so the complexion is good." Zhang Jiangang smiled.
The daughter-in-law Yin Xiaolei next to her poured a glass of water for the two of them, and then took Xiao Lele who came over to play with the toys Zhang Jiangang bought.
"How is work lately? Why do you have time to come to the East China Sea?" Zhang Jiangang took a sip of water and glanced at his daughter-in-law. "Xiaolei, why is it so late that Wenjun hasn't come back yet? Give him a call and say,
Weiping is here, let him come back quickly."
"I don't know, okay dad, I'll fight again." Yin Xiaolei also frowned and said.
Yin Xiaolei actually called her just now, but her husband didn't answer.
"It's good. I have just been promoted to deputy chief physician. I happened to be selected by the hospital to attend a lecture by Chinese surgical experts in Donghai City, so I stopped by to see you. I feel relieved to see your complexion." Zhang Weiping said with a smile.
Zhang Jiangang nodded unexpectedly. I heard that in the past few years, he had never been considered a nephew, but now he was suddenly considered a nephew.
Zhang Jiangang was a little surprised, but no matter what, he was finally promoted to deputy chief physician. Zhang Jiangang knew that his nephew should have been promoted to the hospital a long time ago given his professional abilities. It has been many years.
"Lecture by Chinese surgical experts? Deputy chief physician? He's so awesome. Lele, do you think your uncle is awesome?" Yin Xiaolei asked curiously while accompanying her daughter.
"My dad, grandpa and I are the best." Xiao Lele jumped out and continued to stack blocks.
"..."
"Weiping, how many people are going to your hospital?" Yin Xiaolei asked.
"It's just me." Hearing this, Zhang Weiping looked at his sister-in-law with a smile.
"Ouyou, that's okay, kid." Seeing this, Zhang Jiangang also said something.
"Haha, it's not bad." Zhang Weiping smiled.
"Your dean is so kind to you, unlike your elder brother," Yin Xiaolei next to her joked, and even Zhang Jiangang nodded with a smile.
Zhang Weiping forced a smile.
"By the way, uncle, besides seeing you today, I also have something to inform you." Zhang Weiping deliberately changed the subject.
"What's the matter?" Zhang Jiangang asked, noticing the change in his nephew's expression.
"I'm going to get married. We'll have a meal with relatives on both sides in the East China Sea next Saturday and it's settled." Zhang Weiping's expression was a little strange when he said this, and he did not show the joy of getting married.
"Getting married? That's a good thing! Why didn't your parents call me for such a big thing? Okay, of course I have to go when my nephew gets married." Zhang Jiangang agreed wholeheartedly.
"Then when are you going to hold the wedding? Will it be held at our place only, or will it be held by both the man and the woman? Have you and your father made arrangements? Is there anything you need help with?" he said, looking at his nephew Zhang Jiangang.
Okay, it's good to get married. My nephew is not young anymore and should have gotten married long ago.
When he heard this, Zhang Weiping's expression was obviously wrong.
"The wedding won't be held at our old Zhang's house." Zhang Wei said calmly.
"Her parents have said that everything can be left to them. When the time comes, her parents will take care of it, and we, the Zhang family, will just go have a wedding banquet and go through the motions."
As soon as Zhang Weiping's words came out of the room, Zhang Jiangang and Yin Xiaolei were stunned.
"What? We're not going to hold a wedding here, and our family is just going through the motions?" Yin Xiaolei, Zhang Jiangang's daughter-in-law, felt something was wrong.
"Well, what her mother means is that only the main relatives here can go there on the wedding day, and other relatives should not go around," Zhang Weiping said.
"Ah? The girl's parents are responsible for it. The boy's parents and relatives can just participate. What's going on with the old Zhang family? Should our family marry a daughter-in-law or a son?" Yin Xiaolei was stunned.
"What's going on, Weiping, tell me clearly, what does it mean that the man just needs to participate and stop moving around?" Combined with his nephew's expression and the absence of the second child, Zhang Jianqiang, Zhang Jiangang felt that something was wrong.
I'm afraid it's not that my useless second brother doesn't want to come, but that he doesn't have the nerve to come.
Zhang Jiangang is not a patriarchal person, but equality should always be achieved.
"How can this be like this? When our son married his wife, he was not allowed to have a banquet, but his wife did it instead? This was not the case when your brother and I got married. We both had weddings." Yin Xiaolei didn't understand.
"What's wrong? Is it because the woman's family situation is not very good?" Yin Xiaolei asked again.
How could it be that the woman's conditions were not good? If that were the case, Weiping wouldn't have such an expression. Besides, Zhang Jiangang is not the kind of person who hates poverty and loves wealth. The old Zhang family doesn't have much money.
"What's going on, Weiping? What are you doing with their parents?" Zhang Jiangang looked straight at his nephew and asked.
Zhang Jiangang knew his nephew well. Although he was very lofty and didn't talk much at home, he was actually very sensible and acted very steadily.
Hearing Zhang Jiangang ask about his fiancée's parents, Zhang Wei was stunned for a moment.
"Yeah, what are you doing at your fiancée's house to be so overbearing?" Yin Xiaolei also asked. Even Xiao Lele stopped playing with toys and looked directly at his uncle.
Seeing several pairs of eyes looking at him, especially his uncle's sharp eyes, Zhang Weiping's lips finally moved.
"Her father is the director of our Bohe Private Hospital."
When saying this, the arrogant Zhang Weiping bit his lip tightly.
Zhang Jiangang exhaled heavily, he understood.
As for Yin Xiaolei, she didn't say anything either.
"Are you going to be a door-to-door son-in-law?" After a moment, Zhang Jiangang sighed.
As soon as these words came out, Yin Xiaolei was stunned and looked at Zhang Weiping.
His lips moved and Zhang Weiping nodded.
"Ah?" Yin Xiaolei couldn't help but said, and even glanced at her father-in-law, "Then, what about the second uncle and second aunt?"
Becoming a son-in-law? The eldest daughter is not married yet, but the second uncle and second aunt only have such a son. Moreover, the second uncle and second aunt have always regarded Weiping as their pride, and always praise their son's abilities to everyone.
Zhang Weiping did not answer.
"Did the girl's parents make any other requests?" Zhang Jiangang paid no attention to his daughter-in-law's question, but looked at his nephew and asked.
"Did you drive the Porsche downstairs? Was it given to you by your dean? And your sudden appointment as deputy chief physician was also because of this marriage, right?" Zhang Jiangang asked again.
While talking, he looked across at the nephew he had grown up with.
My nephew was so arrogant and lofty-minded back then, how could he be like this now?
Although Zhang Weiping acted calmly, Zhang Jiangang still saw the stubbornness in his eyes.
The calmer and calmer Weiping acted, the more Zhang Jiangang felt pain in his heart.
This kid has been aloof since he was a child and doesn't say anything to others. He looks cold and even a little indifferent, but in fact Zhang Jiangang knows that Zhang Weiping has his own ideas in his heart. He just takes care of everything by himself.
"Well, the hospital will also select me to study abroad. Her mother asked me to drive the car temporarily, and I don't want to drive it." Looking into Zhang Jiangang's eyes, Zhang Weiping controlled his emotions.
Zhang Jiangang said nothing.
"Her mother asked me to move to them after I get married to reduce contact with the Zhang family, but they will give my parents a lot of money." Looking at his uncle, Zhang Weiping said.
Although his expression looked calm, the rising and falling of his chest had betrayed him.
"Did you agree?" Zhang Jiangang looked at his nephew expressionlessly.
"I have no idea."
Zhang Jiangang's chest heaved. "That fiancée of yours, do you like her? How long have you known each other?"
"I have a crush on her, but I don't know if I like her. We just met last month. She was injured that day and I was the one who treated her. I didn't know at the time that she was the dean's daughter."
The atmosphere was a bit depressing. Yin Xiaolei looked at her father-in-law and her brother-in-law.
Finally, I saw my father-in-law speak out.
"Weiping, do you know what I want to do now?" Zhang Jiangang said, staring at the nephew he had grown up with.
After hearing Zhang Jiangang's words and looking at Zhang Jiangang, Zhang Weiping's lips moved.
