In the evening, He Yuzhu just came home from work and saw He Yuzhu sitting at the dining table in his living room, legs crossed, drinking tea and eating melon seeds.
"Brother?" He Yuyu was stunned, "Why are you here?"
He Yuzhu said with a smile while eating melon seeds: "Why, can't I come?"
"No." He Yuyu came over and said, "I mean, why didn't you say anything when you came?"
He Yuzhu said with a smile: "While you are at work, I can't go to your workplace to look for you, so I might as well come over and wait for you. It happened that Dongdong and Miaomiao got off school early and opened the door for me, so I waited here, haha."
He Yuyu then asked: "Where are Dongdong and Miaomiao?"
"I'm playing with toys in the house." He Yuzhu said with a smile.
He Yuyu frowned and quickly entered the back room, and then saw his son Dongdong playing with a simulated submachine gun toy that had never been at home, while Miaomiao was changing clothes for a doll that had never been at home.
Seeing He Yuyu suddenly come in, the oldest son Dongdong immediately put down the toy gun and shouted to He Yuyu: "Mom."
The second daughter Miaomiao also quickly put down the doll and said to He Yuyu with a smile: "Mom, you are here."
He Yuyu nodded: "Where did the toys come from?"
"My uncle gave it to me," Miao Miao, the youngest, said immediately.
"Yes." Dongdong, the oldest, said, "Uncle said this is for us. By the way, he also brought canned fruit, chocolate, and malted milk, but we didn't move it and put them all in the cupboard."
He Yuyu frowned and asked, "Have you finished your homework?"
"I've finished writing." Dongdong said quickly, "I won't play until I finish writing."
"Me too." Miaomiao also said, "I only play after I finish writing."
He Yuyu then smiled and said: "Okay, you can play."
After saying that, He Yuyu walked out of the bedroom and looked at He Yuzhu, who was still eating melon seeds by himself: "Brother, what do you mean when you suddenly come to my house and bring so many things?"
He Yuzhu threw down the melon seeds, clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Oh, you are really my smart and good sister, I can't hide anything from you."
He Yuyu said: "Tell me quickly, what do you want to do?"
He Yuzhu smiled and said: "That's right, Lou Xiao'e, I would like to invite you to have a meal with the children, meet my son and get to know each other.
As you know, my son will leave tomorrow. It will not be easy to come all the way this time. I don’t know when he will come back next time.
So I thought, no matter what, I have to let Dongdong and Miaomiao meet my son, don’t you think so? "
He Yuyu smiled half-heartedly: "Did Lou Xiao'e tell you to say that?"
"Hey, that's what I thought." He Yuzhu turned his head, "What do you want to do with me?"
"You didn't buy those toys and things, did you?" He Yuyu said, "You can't think of buying these, you can't do such a thing."
"Hey, that's right." He Yuzhu smiled and nodded, "I originally came to see you directly, but Lou Xiao'e said that even if you are brothers and sisters, you have to bring something with you when you come to visit, otherwise it won't be justified.
If it were me, I would definitely bring you some rice and noodles. But Lou Xiaoe said, you must not be short of this these days.
So, she helped me buy it, and then I brought it to me. "
"Yo yo yo." He Yuyu smiled and said, "It's Lou Xiao'e. You must be thinking about her right now, right?"
"That's what I said." He Yuzhu said, "I know how to do things, help me do it, what's the problem? And although Lou Xiao'e picked the things, I gave the money. Don't think it was Lou Xiao'e who sent it, no!"
He Yuyu seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "Lou Xiao'e can do it, you already know how to take a roundabout way."
Then, He Yuyu looked at He Yuzhu: "What, are you really planning to be with Lou Xiao'e?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" He Yuzhu said quickly, "They just kindly invited us to have a meal, and then let the children meet and get to know each other. That's all. Nothing more."
"Is there really nothing else?" He Yuyu asked with a smile.
"Definitely." He Yuzhu said quickly, "Well, my son will leave tomorrow. After that, I also asked Dongdong and Miaomiao. They also want to go, but they have to listen to you, so isn't this right? Waiting for you to come?
No, I'm talking about Yu Yu. Your brother finally had a son, and he just wanted the children to get to know each other. Knowing that they have such a relative, you have to ruin your brother like this. I don't hate you that much, right? "
Speaking of this, He Yuzhu waved his hand: "Forget it, I won't say anything else, just say whether you agree or not."
"See how anxious you are." He Yuyu smiled, "I didn't say I disagreed either."
He Yuzhu said: "Hey, have you said no earlier? It's useless to say so much."
He Yuyu smiled and said: "Then I'm afraid that Lou Xiao'e, a drunkard who doesn't care about drinking, will use the matter of letting the children meet so that she can start from me?"
Speaking of this, He Yuzhu's face turned solemn and said: "Brother, no matter what you think, let me express my position first. I only recognize Qin Huairu as my sister-in-law. As for Lou Xiao'e, I don't recognize it. If you dare to abandon Qin Huairu, then You are Chen Shimei!"
"Look at what you said." He Yuzhu said with a sad look on his face, "You are telling all the lies, who said that you want to abandon Huairu? I just want to recognize a son, as for one by one? It seems that I have committed a huge crime Same, isn't that just what happened in the past, and it's not my fault."
Seeing that He Yuzhu was anxious, He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Okay, since that's what you mean, then I'll go, and Dongdong and Miaomiao will go too."
"It's really strenuous." He Yuzhu shook his head.
He Yuyu smiled, then went back to the house and said, "Dongdong Miaomiao, stop playing around and come with me. Let's go meet someone and eat delicious food on the way."
In this way, He Yuyu took the two children and followed He Yuzhu to the hotel where Lou Xiao'e went down the tower. Then he ordered a table of food in the hotel restaurant and chatted while eating together.
Dongdong and Miaomiao were very friendly to He Xiao, a cousin who suddenly appeared, and quickly accepted it.
Of course, the most important thing is that this is a big hotel with a good environment and good food. Dongdong and Miaomiao have never eaten here before, so they are busy eating delicious food and probably don't care much about other things.
But in general, because they had never seen him before and there were adults around, the children were more reserved and maintained basic courtesy.
On the contrary, He Yuzhu looked at his son with a smile whenever he had free time, as if he couldn't get enough of him.
He Xiao was embarrassed by He Yuzhu's look, so he could only smile and continue to eat with his head down.
As for He Yuyu, except for telling Lou Xiao'e some past events at the beginning, there was no topic of conversation soon.
So in the end, few people spoke at the dinner table. Everyone ate quietly, and there was not much lively atmosphere.
Suddenly, He Yuyu's youngest daughter Miaomiao put down her chopsticks and said to He Yuyu: "Mom, I'm full. Can I go to brother He Xiao's room to play for a while? I have never been to a hotel room like this. "
He Yuyu smiled and said: "Of course you can, but don't mess around! Especially don't break things!"
He Xiao also quickly looked at Lou Xiao'e: "Mommy, can I do it?"
Lou Xiao'e looked at He Xiao and said, "Okay, go ahead."
He Xiao quickly put down his chopsticks with a smile and smiled at Dongdong and Miaomiao.
Dongdong, the oldest, also put down his chopsticks, stood up on his own initiative and said, "Let's go."
After saying that, the three children left together.
After the three children left, He Yuyu shook his head and smiled: "Don't say it, blood relationship is blood relationship. Look at them, as soon as they met, they looked like nothing."
Lou Xiao'e smiled slightly: "This is what I hope to see."
He Yuzhu paused slightly and looked at He Yuzhu: "Brother, what about you?"
He Yuzhu was stunned, then raised his head and looked at He Yuzhu: "Yes, yes, of course, for sure, hehehe."
Then, He Yuzhu said with a smile: "But, it's okay if the child goes away, let the child play by himself, and it will be easier for us to talk."
He Yuyu smiled and then asked Lou Xiao'e: "Sister Lou, do you really want to invest in opening a restaurant for my brother?"
"Of course it's true." Lou Xiao'e smiled.
He Yuyu nodded: "I think it is a good thing to open a restaurant, but if you really lose your iron job because of this, if the policy changes slightly in the future and it is not allowed, it will be completely destroyed."
Speaking of this, He Yuyu looked at He Yuzhu: "Brother, do you think this is the truth?"
He Yuzhu thought for a while and said: "Actually, that's what I think. In the public-private partnership back then, to be honest, the capitalists did not suffer."
He Yuyu curled his lips: "What, you want to be a capitalist?"
He Yuzhu said quickly: "What are you talking about? There is no such thing as capitalist anymore. It's all called private economy."
"I think they're pretty much the same," He Yuyu said, "They're all hired workers, and they're all bosses."
Lou Xiao'e smiled and said: "Actually, Yu Yu's concerns are right, but as I said before, now that the country has opened up and its thinking has progressed, it is no longer the same as in the past, and we will not reverse the course of history.
In fact, as a boss, the South has long been established, and it is very prosperous. "
"But this is the capital." He Yuyu said calmly, "The capital is not another place, you should understand this."
Lou Xiao'e frowned, but quickly nodded with a smile: "Yes, the capital is different, but now the country has introduced policies, and individuals can also open companies and become bosses.
Let’s just talk about Cao Zhiqiang in your yard. He just opened his own company, and he did very well. "
He Yuyu continued to say calmly: "I know about Cao Zhiqiang's situation. He is backed by a big shot, and he is not starting a company, but transforming the company into a private one. This is not something ordinary people can do."
After a pause, He Yuyu said again: "Sister Lou, you have only been here for a short time, so I'm afraid you don't know Cao Zhiqiang's energy at all.
He now has very good relations with many city leaders. Even the leaders of the Public Security Bureau know him and have to give him some respect. Many senior officials are not as energetic as him.
Even though Cao Zhiqiang now has his own company, people like him are very familiar with the leaders above. Once there is a change in the policy, he will know it in advance before it is announced, and then make preparations in advance.
So people like him are no longer the same as ordinary people. Using him as an example, is it comparable?
At least my brother can’t learn from him, right? "
Lou Xiao'e frowned, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Seeing that He Yuyu was so rude, He Yuzhu quickly smoothed things over: "Let's not talk about this for now. Let's eat first. Ouch, this soup is good. Drink more Yuyu."
Lou Xiao'e smiled, stopped talking, and picked up her chopsticks to eat again.
At the same time, Banggan, Xiaodang and Huaihua also arrived at the hotel where Lou Xiaoe was staying, and were walking forward silently together, preparing to go to Lou Xiaoe's room to inquire about the situation.
Unexpectedly, halfway through, they suddenly bumped into Dongdong, Miaomiao and He Xiao.
"Brother Banggen?" Miao Miao was the first to laugh, "Why are you here?"
Banggeng smiled slightly and nodded.
"Sister Xiaodang, sister Huaihua." Dongdong also nodded and said hello to Xiaodang and Huaihua.
"Hey, okay." Xiaodang smiled, "Dongdong is here too."
Soon, the most lively Miaomiao began to greet each other and Huaihua Xiaodang, and the scene became lively immediately.
He Xiao, on the other hand, stood aside not knowing what to say, feeling a little embarrassed.
Seemingly noticing He Xiao's embarrassment, Dongdong said to He Xiao: "Brother He Xiao, you don't have to be afraid. These three adults are actually of the same generation as us, and they have the same father as you!"
Upon hearing this, He Xiao looked at Banggan, Xiaodang and Huaihua, feeling even more embarrassed.
It was embarrassing, but He Xiao's upbringing was there, so he quickly bowed to Banggan, Xiaodang and Huaihua: "Hello everyone, my name is He Xiao."
Xiaodang smiled and said, "We met you before in the yard, do you still remember?"
He Xiao smiled awkwardly.
Banggeng said expressionlessly: "Okay, now that we've met, I don't have anything to do. You guys can chat. I'll wait for you downstairs."
After saying that, Banggeng put his hands in his pockets and walked away minding his own business.
Upon seeing this situation, Huaihua immediately frowned and said, "Hey, don't leave!"
"Yes!" Xiaodang said, "Why don't you come and chat with us."
Banggeng said expressionlessly: "I don't want to talk more, you just talk."
After saying that, Banggan ignored Huaihua and Xiaodang and left without stopping.
Seeing Banggeng looking so resigned, Xiaodang was furious: "Brother, why are you like this?"
Huaihua had a look of disdain on her face: "Huh, that's how he is. He is selfish. He only thinks about his own affairs and doesn't worry about his family's affairs at all! He doesn't deserve to be a brother!"
Xiaodang quickly tugged Huaihua's arm and whispered: "Stop talking, there are still people."
Huaihua was stunned, looked at Dongdong Miaomiao and He Xiao in front of her, and then forced a smile.
Xiaodang shook his head, then looked at He Xiao with a smile: "Your name is He Xiao, right?"
He Xiao nodded and said nothing.
Xiaodang smiled again and said to He Xiao: "Don't be nervous. By the way, Dongdong said just now that you and we have the same father, so we can be considered relatives. It's just that your surname is different from ours. Your surname is He and our surname is Jia. Can you understand?"
He Xiao nodded: "I know. In fact, my brother and I have different surnames. I know this situation."
"Ah?" Xiao Dang asked in surprise, "Do you have a younger brother in Hong Kong?"
"Yes." He Xiao said, "His name is Chen Yunan."
Huaihua nodded: "So, you still have a father in Hong Kong?"
"Yes." He Xiao nodded, "I call him daddy."
"Ah, I understand." Xiaodang said with a smile, "Okay, now that I know this, this trip will not be in vain!"
"That's right." Sophora japonica also smiled broadly.
Miaomiao smiled and said to Huaihua: "Sister Huaihua, let me tell you something. Your father, my mother, and brother He Xiao's mother are all eating together in the restaurant on the second floor."
"Ah, that's right." Huaihua smiled and touched Miaomiao's head, "You're so good, then what are you doing?"
Miaomiao said: "We are full, and we plan to go to brother He Xiao's room to take a look and play for a while."
"Ah, that's good." Xiaodang said, "Then go and play."
He Xiaodao: "Then we go back?"
"Go ahead, go ahead." Xiaodang nodded with a smile, "We are here to do something. Once the things are done, it's time to leave."
"Yes." Huaihua smiled and said, "We have finished our work and are going back. You can go and have fun by yourself."
The three children waved goodbye to Huaihua and Xiaodang.
As soon as the three children left, Xiao Dang smiled and gave Sophora Hua a high-five: "Are you relieved now?"
"I'm relieved." Huaihua smiled and nodded, "I'm completely relieved."
"Then what are you waiting for?" Xiao Dang said with a smile, "Let's go back quickly and tell our mother the good news. Don't keep her waiting!"
