When I got home, Lao Qiao was sitting at my dining table chatting with my mother.
The two of them had a pretty good chat, just like a teacher's home visit, talking back and forth.
This caused me to push the door open and go in, like a child who had made a mistake coming home, and my mother gave me a fierce look.
"Why don't you kid make people worry?"
After saying this, my mother came over and grabbed my arm and said, "Hurry up and make amends to your leader!"
Give me a moment.
What did Lao Qiao say to my mother?
"What about that, County Magistrate Qiao, you guys chat first while I cook some food."
My mother hid, but when Lao Qiao and I were the only ones left in the room, Lao Qiao gave me a blank look: "Are you also afraid?"
He was referring to my expression of fear that my mother would find out about all this mess.
I sat silently across from Lao Qiao, deliberately picked up my chopsticks and slammed them on the table. When I saw Lao Qiao reaching out to pick up the ribs, I directly took off my chopsticks and snatched them away.
Lao Qiao was so angry that he was almost breathing fire, so he simply put down his chopsticks.
"Aren't you serious?"
"Our goods are almost running out of space in the village. Why are you still looking at the petty profits of 'Ye Xiu'?"
"Then all the meat that falls out from between my fucking fingers will fall into your mouth!"
I didn't speak and just kept my head down while eating.
Lao Qiao deliberately calmed himself down and said, "Do you know what I'm going to do when I take you to the hotel to meet those people?"
I responded with a sullen face: "Let me do the job of the previous big boss and deliver the goods to you."
"fart!"
Lao Qiao opened his mouth and cursed: "I want you to deliver goods. Can I bring you to know so many people?"
"I'm going to put the entire burden in your hands, you bastard!"
I deliberately controlled my hand speed, slowed down the hand that was pulling the rice into my mouth, and then raised my eyelids to look at Lao Qiao.
"You are full of cleverness and full of bullshit!"
"Now that we have fooled Mr. Bao and stabilized He Chuntian, what should we do now? You have already told He Chuntian, why don't you remember it? What a fool!"
I responded blankly: "I thought, I thought..."
"I spent half a year constantly putting messages in the hands of batch after batch of people, shipping goods today and shipping tomorrow. After half a year of shipping, no goods were shipped at all. Why?"
"The purpose is to clean up a safe team for you and make it easier for you to get started. Do you really think that I brought you out of the village just to let you watch those piglets in the park?"
"I think you are addicted to being a local emperor!"
As Lao Qiao spoke, he poked my head hard with his finger. This time, I honestly put down my chopsticks, slowly opened the stool, and stood up.
Of course I know what he said, but Lao Qiao felt that the power given to me was not what it seemed to me. It was called the guillotine, and there was no way back. Our ideas are completely different. How could I possibly follow the path he arranged?
How can it be!
"Sit there!"
Lao Qiao glared at me and said.
"Stand there, my heart is pounding as I sit there."
"Are you still ashamed?"
Old Qiao continued: "Count on your fingers, how many people who know what is going on in the village are still alive?"
"Fuck you, you spend all your time eating and drinking... I still have to f*cking coax you, I'm a bitch too."
"Um."
"Ah?!" Lao Qiao finally opened his eyes intelligently this time.
I quickly explained: "That's not what I meant."
I quickly pulled the chair next to Lao Qiao and said like a junior: "Then you can't deny me any face?"
"I've already said, I'll take care of Lu Qiang's affairs, and you can just hand it over and send it out. How will people look at me from now on? Those who don't know may think you don't trust me."
"And the 'night show', it's not necessary. I just thought that the guy in the photo still doesn't support me. If I don't let this person into my own hands, I won't worry."
Lao Qiao responded: "Isn't it that 'no one can believe' spirit that was developed in the park?"
I nodded.
"Get out of here!"
After Lao Qiao finished speaking, I pulled the chair to his side with a smile, pulled the bowls and chopsticks over, and looked at Lao Qiao as if waiting for instructions.
"Let me tell you, everyone you saw in the hotel that day had tried again and again before they could see you. As for your neighbor Lao Yao, I at least told him no less than six times. The goods have been shipped, and every time he can guarantee that he will not contact anyone before the goods are shipped, and that Xiaoman..."
Lao Qiao introduced me to who the people on the table were again: "I won't try this. Do you think Erkui's action of stepping forward to help me when we handed out red envelopes can make me have such a big reaction?"
"He doesn't even know he stepped on shit!"
I remembered it, and I remembered the way Er Kui was stared back at by Lao Qiao.
It turns out that he was not trying to help me rise to the top, but he really hated Erkui to death!
And that man's exposure was not due to his "internal mouth". He was exposed by Old Qiao over and over again. Who could bear it if he was calculated mentally or not?
"I had to click on him and tell him that he had a needle in his hand before he knew to check. You think this kind of person, can I let him live?"
As Lao Qiao spoke, he looked at me: "Why are you so stunned?"
I subconsciously reacted: "I was wondering, have you ever tested me..." After saying these words, I immediately shut up and looked up at Lao Qiao.
My expression satisfied Lao Qiao. From his point of view, even though I was out of the circle, I still believed that my life was in his hands. This was a sign of surrender.
Old Qiao was happy.
"From now on, use your brain before doing anything."
After saying that, he picked up the chopsticks and picked up another piece of ribs, briefly bit it a few times, threw the bones into the empty bowl and said, "I'm full."
"Just one bowl? Every time Boureia comes to my house, he can eat with the rice cooker..."
"Can I compare with him? How old is he and how old am I?"
Lao Qiao stood up and said: "The doctor told me that the best thing for health is to be 70% full without ever feeling full."
After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the door. When I followed Lao Qiao out stupidly, Lao Qiao deliberately stood at the door of the villa area for a while, looking at other parts of the villa area that were under construction. He showed a satisfied smile.
"I built this place brick by brick, so I have emotions about it that you young people will never understand."
"And I also hope that you will place all your hopes on this land."
"Xu, if one day you can do this, I will give you everything, not to mention power, money, pride, face..." He turned his head and looked at me, but the next words were still unsaid. .
"I just don't know if I can wait until that day."
Old Qiao stood there for five minutes, and I stood with him on the dusty boundary, motionless.
"Okay, I've given you enough face this time, right?"
Old Qiao turned around and deliberately pointed behind him. Downstairs of the old Yao Ying's villa, a dark-skinned nanny was hanging clothes: "This fool has been hanging clothes since I came here." Old Qiao said in my ear. When I finished this sentence, I finally burst out laughing.
When he comes, it represents my status in his heart. Naturally, he can also tell everyone through the mouth of the old eagle who the person Lao Qiao actually cares about the most.
Then he waved his hand and shouted: "Let's go."
After saying that, I got in the car directly without any nostalgia.
After the green pickup truck slowly left the villa, my mother also walked out of the house, stood beside me and asked, "Son, what did you two say?"
I asked without looking back: "You didn't listen to me?"
My mother is very decent: "Listen, I don't understand."
I turned around and comforted her: "Then let's watch the TV series. It's in The Legend of Zhen Huan."
"Which episode?"
"It's the episode where the female pig's feet came back from the nunnery and released butterflies along the cloak in the royal garden on a cold day."
Happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone!
It's a holiday today, so there are only two updates. There are many people at home, and the rest will be tomorrow, tomorrow.
Today is the day of reunion, everyone must be happy!
