Hou Jinzhi was a little tempted. She said, let my dad come and take a look too. Hou Jinzhi did not expect that when he returned to the grocery store at his home in Xicheng and finished his work in the evening, he mentioned to his father Hou Hongzhong that Director Gu of the Cigarette Monopoly Co., Ltd. had arranged for cashier Liu to take her to Yinjiekouzi to play and what he had told her. Son.
When he heard that Gu Junshui was a matchmaker and planned to introduce his company's new general manager, Qin Caixing, to his daughter, Hou Hongzhong refused and said, Mr. Qin, I know him. I met him last time I went shopping. He is quite nice, but he is just older. I'm older, probably more than 20 years older than you, no.
Hou Jinzhi also fell silent. From the bottom of her heart, she is willing, because she is such an old girl and cannot live with her father all the time. Besides, it is very tiring to sell this store every day. If she gets married, I don't care. easy.
Another point is that she was very envious when she saw the five-element house where Tan Caixing lived, which radiated with five colors. In addition, when she stopped at the entrance of Yinjie, she could see the river, fields and mountains, and the scenery was pleasant.
Hou Jinzhi was a filial daughter. She experienced a car accident from the world to the underworld. The car accident was entirely caused by her father. It can be said that her father killed her. But she doesn't hate her father, she is still so filial. At present, her father objected to her marriage, but she refused to go against it. She still followed her father and worked in the grocery store.
The next day, Cashier Liu made a special trip to ask Hou Hongzhong's grocery store in Xicheng, asking Hou Jinzhi to ask her how she was doing after she had dealt with a group of customers. Hou Jinzhi shook his head slightly, then walked out of the counter and whispered to her, my father disagreed. Cashier Liu said "Oh" and left.
On the third day, Hou Hongzhong drove a truck to Gu Junshui Company to buy cigarettes. When paying, the cashier issued an invoice, but returned the 100,000 pu coins paid by Hou Hongzhong to him, saying that our director Gu had told him, This cart of cigarettes is free of charge and will be given to you.
Hou Hongzhong thought secretly: This must be Dong Gu who proposed marriage to Mr. Qin and gave me this cart of goods as a betrothal gift. He has always loved money and was a little tempted. But still speaking of saving face, how can that be done? Since your company doesn't charge money, I will return the goods. A gentleman loves money and gets it in a wise way. If I just get a car of cigarettes from your company casually, doesn’t it mean that a gentleman loves money and gets it in a wrong way?
There is a way, there is a way. Suddenly he heard someone talking behind him. He turned around and saw Gu Junshui, a big and thick man, walking towards him from the side of the cigarette storage warehouse with a smile on his face.
Hou Hongzhong greeted him respectfully and said, "Dr. Gu, you have a good idea. Please tell me what you have said."
I won’t talk about it here. You go to my office and Gu will have a good talk with you. Gu Junshui said calmly.
Hou Hongzhong followed Gu Junshui through a stone road and walked out of the courtyard. In front of him was a European-style building, built by the Portuguese ghost tribe. On the top of the building was a round spire pointing straight to the sky, as if receiving messages from heaven. It looked like It looks solemn and mysterious.
When he entered Gu Junshui's office, of course it was the matter he was talking about. Hou Hongzhong was mentally prepared. He couldn't refuse directly. He only said tactfully, "My daughter has reached the age of talking about marriage. I am a little worried now. Once he gets married, , I was the only one in the grocery store. It was too busy and lacked manpower.
This is easy to handle. We will recruit a person from our company to help you with your business. Gu Junshui stated this.
Hou Hongzhong didn't trust others because the person he hired to help with business last time avoided him and stole money, but it was not appropriate to tell him, so he had to say tactfully, find a person with good moral character to help me with business, and I will open the door. Higher wages.
OK! Just say it. Gu Junshui's speech was crisp and clear.
At noon that day, Gu Junshui invited me and Cashier Liu to accompany Hou Hongzhong to have a meal at a restaurant on Yin Street. The atmosphere at the table was lively.
During the toast, Gu Junshui looked at me and took the joke seriously, Mr. Qin, please call Master Hou father-in-law in front of us! I started to drink a few glasses of wine, and when I became bolder, I clinked my glass to Hou Hongzhong and said that you recognized me as your son-in-law, so I drank the wine and shouted again.
Mr. Gu protects the media, how can Hou not recognize it? Hou Hongzhong opened his eyes and looked at me.
As soon as I finished speaking, I drank the glass of wine I was holding. Then he shouted, "Dad, if I get married and have a wedding next time, we will be the hosts and invite our company leaders and employees in the underworld to have a wedding banquet with you and my friends."
Everyone laughed and cheered in unison, saying that I said it well! Afterwards, Cashier Liu suggested taking Hou Hongzhong to Yinjiekou to take a look at the Five Elements House that would be Hou Jinzhi and I’s wedding home and the natural scenery there. After Hou Hongzhong saw it, he was very satisfied.
Soon, Gu Junshui looked through the imperial calendar to help me choose a good and auspicious day, and set up a wedding team, beating gongs and drums, and bustling the suona to marry Hou Hongzhong's rich daughter. Hou Jinzhi entered the five-element house I had used as a bridal chamber at Yinjiekou to get married. .
The wedding banquet was held in a hotel on Yin Street. When Hou Jinzhi and I were toasting, we greeted a special guest—Hou Jinzhi’s brother Hou Dabao. Hou Jinzhi was surprised for a moment, her face darkened, and she softly uttered a question with a question in her mouth, Brother, are you here too? Hou Dabao didn't know whether he heard it or not. He didn't answer. He just looked at me and said, Brother-in-law, congratulations to you two on your happy marriage, the flowers are blooming and the moon is full, and you may be happy for eternity!
Thank you Jiyan! After saying that, I drank down the wine I held out in front of Hou Dabao and told him, congratulations to my brother and sister-in-law as well.
Hou Dabao also finished the glass of wine, and just looked intently at Hou Jinzhi, who was wearing the bride's corsage. They seemed to have something to say to each other, but they didn't say anything. Of course I know what their brothers and sisters are thinking.
Hou Dabao wanted to say, sister, I heard that you were killed in a car accident in your hometown in Dongtu Kingdom. I didn’t know that after becoming a ghost, you came to Macau and married Qin Caishen. What a surprise! This is joy amid sorrow, sorrow within joy, sorrow and joy at the same time. I really can’t tell whether it is joy or sorrow.
Hou Jinzhi wanted to say, brother, I died in a car accident in my hometown in Dongtu Kingdom. Could it be that you also suffered an accident in Macau? Why do you say this? I am a member of the ghost tribe now. If you don't die, how can you attend the ghost tribe's wedding banquet held by me and your old sister?
Hou Jinzhi didn’t know that during the wedding night we spent together, and after a lot of lovemaking on the wedding bed, I told her that on the eve of the wedding banquet, I used the power of my mind that I had learned from practicing Avalokitesvara Meditation to transfer Dabao My brother's spirit body temporarily entered the underworld, and told him about the wedding banquet I held with you, so that his spirit body would appear at today's wedding banquet.
I also emphasized, Jinzhi, your Dabao brother is just here in his spiritual body. The coming of his spiritual body does not mean that he suffered death. His physical body is still living well in the world of the world, but his spiritual body has left the physical body. Throughout the whole day today I feel groggy and can't cheer up. However, after he has eaten the wedding banquet, I will use my spiritual power to send his spirit body back to its original body, so there will be no problem at all.
I mean oh! Why is Brother Dabao here too? It turns out you were the one who invited me. When Hou Jinzhi said this, his frown relaxed, and a beautiful smile bloomed on his face.
There is another thing that I didn’t tell my newlywed wife. Before her brother Hou Dabao left, he came close to me and whispered, brother-in-law, I have something to ask you. The last time a gambling friend asked me, I was embarrassed, so I went to Hong Kong. I had a gamble at the casino, but without your help I lost. I lost 4 million bushels that night. What a disaster! Brother-in-law, next time I gamble, can you secretly help me like before and let me get my capital back?
I glared and whispered angrily, "Didn't I tell you?" I told you not to gamble. If someone invites you, can't you find a reason or lie to refuse?
Brother-in-law, you can help me secretly when you bet next time. I won my capital back, and then I will give up. If I continue to gamble in the future and lose again, I will be embarrassed to come to you if I lose everything. Brother-in-law, please consider it. Give it a try! Hou Dabao said it pitifully and looked at me expectantly.
I heard him calling me so affectionately. He used to call me Qin Caishen, but now because I am married to his sister, he has changed to calling me brother-in-law. He and I can't change the relationship of my wife's brother, even though I am from the underworld. Ghost, he is from the human world, but I can help him. With this kind of relationship, I can't justify not helping him.
At that moment, Hou Jinzhi heard that I had developed the incredible mind power and said that she suddenly remembered something and asked me to help her. When asked what it was, she said that during her lifetime, there was a female classmate named Qian Fufang in Qianzhuang not far from her home. She was admitted to Zhongyuan University, but her family was poor and had no money to go to school. I was a failed student. I am not jealous of her. She She also knew that I was a good person, so she asked me to borrow money. How could I have the money to lend her?
But I always wanted to help her. My father was not dead at that time, and he also ran a grocery store in the human world. His business was good and he made some money. I told my dad, Dad, I want to repeat my studies for another year and I need 4,000 yuan for my repeat studies. My father promised to support me and said that if you repeat your studies for one more year this year, if you don’t get into college, don’t think about me giving you any money next year. Repeat reading. I said yes.
In fact, I'm tired of reading and can't get into it. Sometimes I feel dizzy after reading a few pages. It seems that I'm not good at reading. I know myself. I mainly lent money to Qian Fufang for emergency purposes and to pay for her college tuition and fees.
When Qian Fufang got my loan, she was about to write an IOU and hold it in my hand. She raised her head and said, Jin Zhi, you are my best friend. Most people will not lend me money. I lent you this money. I can't pay it back for the time being. I may have to wait until I graduate from college and start working, and then I can pay it back to you slowly. In order to thank you, I am willing to calculate interest on 4,000 yuan, with an annualized rate of one cent, okay?
I said, no interest, your family is so poor, just pay me back the capital slowly or all at once when the time comes. She said, thank you very much, you are such a good person.
So, she wrote me an IOU for 4,000 yuan, and I paid my respects. Unexpectedly, it rained heavily that day. I didn’t bring an umbrella while walking, and I got very wet. When I got home, I changed out of my clothes and forgot about the IOU. Who knew that when I thought about it, my mother, who was always diligent, I had washed the dirty clothes that I had piled up in the room, and then I looked for the clothes and dug out the holes. I found that the IOU was in pieces, like mud-like powder, and there was no way to identify it.
I immediately went to the bank in the neighboring village to explain it clearly to Qian Fufang, but I was too embarrassed to ask her to write me another IOU. After hearing my explanation, she smiled and said, Jinzhi, I have such a good relationship with you, you can lend me 4,000 Give me 1 yuan to go to school. When I graduate and start working, I will have money. If you don’t refund me the IOU, I will also pay you back. Don’t worry! I'm not that kind of person.
Hearing what she said, I took reassurance. When I saw that Qian Fufang had a broad face and big ears, and a fair complexion, she had both the delicacy of a girl and the air of a boy, and she had an open and frank look. .
