A big bowl of noodles came, and the three of them chatted about something happy and laughed.
Qian Wen talked about interesting things in the capital, Sun caught up with him, and Xiao Guoqing talked about what happened to Diphen during his absence and what happened to the lumber factory.
Which family doesn't have a lot of troubles? The Xiao Guoqing family has less troubles than the Sun Chanchao family?
Xiao Guoqing also has a lot of family affairs, but his upright character is not mentioned.
After meal.
"Bingkun, get together after the new year?" At the door of the hotel, Sun Qianchao patted his hat and looked at him and said.
"Well, you guys agree on a time, and we'll get together then." Qian Wen nodded.
"Okay, then Qianchao and I will go back."
Xiao Guoqing and Sun caught up and left.
Qian Wen rubbed his red ears and walked to the minibus stop for the provincial compound.
Seeing that he was catching up, they just told him on National Day that he was back, and he would have to go to Qu Xiuzhen's house later.
I got on the minibus and arrived at the provincial compound.
Under the notification of the guard, Qian Wen arrived at Qu Xiuzhen's house.
From a distance, he saw Qu Xiuzhen looking out.
Qian Wen jogged a few steps.
Just as she approached, before she could speak, the smile on Qu Xiuzhen's face disappeared, and she ignored him and turned around to go back to the house.
Qian Wen was stunned and shouted hurriedly, "Aunt Qu?"
After walking a few steps, Qu Xiuzhen turned back and said expressionlessly, "Where is Kangkang?"
"At home?"
"Then what are you doing here!"
Qian Wen was speechless. He didn't see Kangkang emotionally, so he was unhappy.
"Come in, what are you doing?"
Qian Wen smiled and shook his head and followed in.
Qu Xiuzhen really hasn't changed at all.
"Bingkun is here, hey, where's Xiaokangkang?" Ma Shouchang also looked behind him, holding a box of candy in his hand.
Qian Wen licked his lips, and Qu Xiuzhen glared at him and said to her husband Ma Shouchang, "He came alone!"
Ma Shouchang was quite disappointed when he heard this, but he didn't say anything, "Come on, come in and warm yourself up, your ears are already red from the cold."
"Here!" Qu Xiuzhen came out after walking into the kitchen and handed him a glass of water angrily.
Looking at the steaming water in his hand, Qian Wen smiled and took a sip to warm it up.
"Kangkang is fat? Has he lost weight?"
This year, their son who was far away in the south still did not come back, so the two could only transfer their thoughts to their godson Kangkang.
Qu Xiuzhen felt unhappy when she suddenly saw him but not Kangkang.
"I'm fatter, taller, and more sensible." Qian Wen took the candy handed to him by Ma Shouchang, smiled, peeled off the rind, and ate one.
"Next time I'm alone, I won't come. I don't want to see you." Qu Xiuzhen rolled her eyes at him, and then quietly changed the checkers in her hand.
"Hey, what is this for?" Ma Shouchang saw it and hurriedly stood up to protect him.
In the living room, there is a set of checkers on the coffee table. It seems that it has been played for a while.
One side is almost losing.
Judging from Qu Xiuzhen's actions just now, she should be the one who is about to lose.
"I play chess, what do I do?" Qu Xiuzhen said matter-of-factly.
"No, it's my turn." Ma Shou often pointed to himself.
"Oh~" Qu Xiuzhen suddenly realized, "Then I got confused. Try again."
"You're lying. I'm obviously about to win and I can't afford to lose."
"You will definitely lose this game. Bingkun is here to save you face."
"Obviously you are going to lose Haofa."
The two old children habitually argued in front of Qian Wen.
It sounds warm and looks warm.
"How about we come together?" Qian Wenhe Xini said.
"Okay." Qu Xiuzhen agreed.
"No, wait until I win." Ma Shouchang said.
The two of them stood and refused to let each other go. Qian Wen smiled and helped the two of them sit down, "How about I take your pulse and add me?"
They all had their pulse checked, and they were all high-ranking officials. It was quite convenient to see a doctor if there were any problems with the body. There were no major problems, just minor problems with blood pressure.
The three of them play chess together.
Qian Wen really rarely plays checkers.
"Haha, Bingkun, you, a top student at Peking University, can't do it."
"Bingkun asked you to do it, it will make you happy." Qu Xiuzhen was relieved.
"You are no match for me either." Ma Shouchang said as a child.
"You will lose this set, Bingkun help me." Qu Xiuzhen called the foreign aid.
"D."
The antique living room became even more lively because of Qian Wen's arrival.
Someone spoke, and Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen were much happier than before.
The two old children were chirping, but Qian Wen was a little quiet.
From time to time, cheerful words like "You're cheating, it's my turn," Bingkun said, "Don't let her wait," came out of the window.
"Bingkun, will you graduate soon and start working?" Qu Xiuzhen, who was playing chess, asked casually.
"Well, I'll graduate next year." Qian Wen nodded.
"Then what are your plans? Should you stay in the capital or return to Jichun?" Qu Xiuzhen asked curiously.
“Haven’t decided yet.
My teacher wants me to go to graduate school, my mother wants me to go back to Jichun, but I really want to go to the south.
It is developing very rapidly and is very suitable for some of my topics. "Qian Wen's chess piece clicked three times, approaching Ma Shouchang.
"Hey, Bingkun, you're eating candy." Ma Shoufang hurriedly bribed him. Seeing that he had eaten his candy, he felt relieved and took the next step. At the same time, he sighed, "Yeah, I've heard about it too. Many people learn from the south. Those who came back said that our movement was too small."
Qu Xiuzhen rolled her eyes at her husband, laughing in her heart that she was childish and was not polite in playing chess, "Bingkun, you can go anywhere, the main thing is to use what you have learned."
Looking at the chessboard, Qian Wen complained, "Uncle Ma, Aunt Qu, you guys don't agree with each other, do you agree to speak to the outside world?
This is not the way to treat guests.
Confucius said that it is a joy to have friends come from far away.
You have to let me win. "
"You are neither an outsider nor a friend." Seeing Qian Wen finish his game, Ma Shouchang did not hesitate to play chess and let his pieces approach him.
"I told you not to bring Xiaokangkang with you." Qu Xiuzhen gritted her teeth.
He was dizzy. Do you still remember this?
"My teacher and I have been to the south, especially along the coast and on Hong Kong Island. Our place is indeed a lot slower."
Qu Xiuzhen was curious and asked him some things, things and developments in the south.
Qian Wen also answered everything he saw.
From the perspective of a modern person like Qian Wen, looking at some of the developed coastal cities today, apart from the fact that some electronic products have not kept up and the high-rise buildings are not that high, the rest, such as entertainment, foreign companies, food, clothing, housing and transportation, are really not much worse than modern cities. .
Indulge in money, feasting, and drunkenness.
Of course, there were more people jumping into the river, and it was more chaotic.
I didn’t go to Hong Kong Island last time, but I heard from people there that the demons were dancing in chaos.
Ma Shou often listened quietly and asked specific questions from time to time.
Qian Wen also took out some mature topics studied by Yan Lao and the college and talked with Qu Xiuzhen and Ma Shouchang.
In the provincial compound, Hao's mother was bored at home.
Usually there is an aunt at home who makes a nice noise. It is the Chinese New Year soon, and she has gone back to celebrate the New Year on vacation.
The house was deserted, she was alone, and she couldn't read the newspaper. It was too quiet.
She walked around on the first and second floors of her home. The silence made her feel a little depressed. She put on her coat, tightened it tightly, and went for a walk in the big yard.
The compound is full of leaders. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and many of the children at home have returned. Walking by the roadside, you can hear the sounds of children playing at home.
Mother Hao was walking on the road in the compound, and occasionally met people and said hello with a smile.
When she reached the door of Ma Shouchang's house, she stopped.
After looking at it, she walked in.
Dong Dong Dong~
Soon she heard Qu Xiuzhen shouting, "Bingkun, watch your Uncle Ma and don't let him secretly touch my chess piece."
Suddenly, Bingkun? This name reminded Hao's mother of her son-in-law Zhou Bingyi.
She suddenly wanted to turn around and leave.
If it is true, when the two of them knew each other, they met at someone else's home, or at the home of Secretary Ma who was familiar with their relationship.
She was afraid that some uncontrollable accident would happen and cause a joke.
But the door is open.
"Hey, Sister Jin.
Come in quickly. "Qu Xiuzhen greeted warmly.
"No, Xiaoqu, you have a visitor, so I won't disturb you.
Come back another day. "Mother Hao said cleverly.
"There are no outsiders, Bingkun, Zhou Bingkun.
It is Zhou Bingkun, the younger brother of Sister Jin’s son-in-law Zhou Bingyi.
Come on in, Lao Ma and I are playing chess out of boredom. "Qu Xiuzhen enthusiastically took Mother Hao's arm and walked home.
Hao's mother looked unnatural, afraid of what might happen. She was about to go to Zhou Bingyi's house that night, but now she met her brother in advance.
Don’t know him yet.
I hope Secretary Ma doesn’t see the joke.
"Lao Ma, Sister Jin is here."
Ma Shouchang, who was playing chess with Qian Wen, looked up and stood up with a smile.
Qian Wen also looked.
Mother of sister-in-law Hao Dongmei.
He was stunned, but he didn't expect that they would meet in advance.
He didn't say anything, just watched quietly. They didn't know each other now.
Qu Xiuzhen, Ma Shouchang and Hao's mother chatted enthusiastically.
But Qian Wen felt keenly that Hao's mother had been looking at him vaguely since he came in.
"Eh~" The enthusiastic Qu Xiuzhen noticed something was wrong. She turned around and saw that Qian Wen was not there. She looked over at him and said with a smile, "Bingkun, why are you still sitting down?"
Qian Wen blinked. He really wanted to ask who this was.
But no, asking might make Hao's mother lose face and make her slightly angry.
But in the end, the old Zhou family was also embarrassed.
Jean saw the joke.
He and Qu Xiuzhen have a close relationship, but he has always believed that it would be better to resolve the family dispute internally.
Qian Wen stood up with a smile and looked at it without saying a word.
Mother Hao looked at her and felt as if she knew her.
Mother Hao quickly came to her senses, "When Dongmei and Bingyi left this morning, didn't they say they would take a family photo today?
Did you take the photo?
I didn't expect to meet you at Secretary Ma's house. Your Uncle Hao and I were planning to go there in the evening. "
Qian Wen smiled. Are you afraid that he will speak first? That's what he said.
I'm not stupid, I understand.
What's more, he is a top student at Peking University. It seems that Hao's mother believes that he can understand.
The relationships are all made clear.
Qian Wen said with a faint smile, "Aunt Jin?"
With a hint of doubt in her tone, Qu Xiuzhen frowned slightly and looked at the two of them, feeling that something was wrong.
"Bingkun." Mother Hao affirmed.
Qian Wen suddenly wanted to leave. It was so tiring to meet such relatives.
"Aunt Qu, Uncle Ma, I have something to do at home, so I will go back first and bring Kangkang to see you after the new year." Qian Wen was not playing with Hao's mother because he was too tired. Qian Wen looked at Qu Xiuzhen and the others with a smile and said.
"Ah, so anxious?" Qu Xiuzhen was startled.
"Then wait." Ma Shouchang smiled at Hao's mother and told her to sit down quickly, but he trotted into a room.
After a while, two hands came out carrying a bunch of things.
"Bring these things to Kangkang. They are all specially bought for him, beef jerky, canned food, toffee, dried fruits and so on."
"Uncle Ma, isn't this good? I came here empty-handed and went back with a bunch of things..." Qian Wen said sheepishly.
He also prepared New Year's gifts for Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen, but he didn't get them today and kept them at home.
"Take it, it's not for you, it's for my well-off family." Qu Xiuzhen stuffed it into his hand.
Mother Hao looked on with a smile, feeling unhappy, as if she was the only outsider present.
Qian Wen declined, and Qu Xiuzhen strangled him and said, "Why don't you come next time."
Qian Wen hurriedly picked it up, which satisfied Qu Xiuzhen and Ma Shouchang.
Mother Hao felt awkward in her heart. Although Qian Wen didn't say or do anything, it made her feel more uncomfortable than what he said or did.
She has always been disapproving of this in-laws, and believes that if the living environment is different, it would be better for both parties if they move around less, or even not at all.
At least the decency of both parties was maintained.
But when they suddenly met today, the other person's family didn't look as flattering as they expected. They looked at her with indifferent eyes, as if she was nothing more than that.
She, who had always believed that the status of the two parties was unequal and could not see each other as normal relatives and in-laws, was a little upset at this moment. No, it was very upset.
If Qian Wen knew Hao's mother's psychology at this moment, he would definitely analyze it to her. She was used to being aloof. She should have thought that the person who would please her and kneel down to lick her suddenly unexpectedly stopped licking her.
There is a gap in my heart, and my arrogant head will not allow it.
That is to say, she is used to taking herself too seriously and thinking that everyone is trying to get something from her.
Qian Wen nodded to her, and without saying another word, he said goodbye warmly to Qu Xiuzhen and Ma Shouchang, and left.
Mother Hao was stunned and suddenly said, "Secretary Ma, Xiaoqu, I'm sorry, I suddenly remembered that I have something to do and I have to go back."
"Oh, Sister Jin, please slow down."
Qu Xiuzhen and Ma Shouchang were both discerning people, and they immediately saw that there was a problem between Qian Wen and Hao's mother, but they didn't ask anything.
Soon, the house was empty.
Qu Xiuzhen looked at Ma Shouchang and asked doubtfully, "Bingkun seems to be with Sister Jin..."
"This is a family matter, let's play chess, let's play chess." Ma Shouchang pulled his wife Qu Xiuzhen to continue playing chess.
It's just that both of them guessed something.
With their temper towards Bingkun, he should be out of reach of Governor Hao's family just like he did just now.
Qu Xiuzhen and Ma Shouchang couldn't help but shook their heads.
Such face...
Three daughters-in-law and sons-in-law from Peking University and several other famous universities. In today's prosperous era, this is obviously an excellent in-law.
Qian Wen walked to the door of the provincial compound.
The sudden meeting with Hao's mother did not affect him.
He had never planned to ask for anything from the other party. If he didn't ask for anything, it didn't matter whether he was familiar with her or not.
As for leaving a bad impression on the other party, will he care?
If he hadn't been at Qu Xiuzhen's house just now, he wouldn't have even spoken to her.
Just unimportant people.
Qian Wen walked out of the provincial compound. Not far away, Hao's mother looked at him from a distance.
It got slightly dark and Qian Wen went home.
The street in front of my house has become cleaner.
Entering the door, hey, his solid wood floor has never been so shiny.
I looked at the glass again. Hey, have you removed the glass?
The house is so clean.
Looking at the people sitting in the living room, everyone looked at him as he walked in.
Qian Wen waved to them, "Thank you for your hard work, comrades~"
Everyone, "..."
Zhou Zhigang, "Humph!"
When he is proud, he will be proud to death; when he is angry, he will outshine the whole family.
"Bingkun, you're back." Zheng Juan hurriedly calmed the atmosphere.
