Chapter 144 Can’t he be my brother-in-law?
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Lu Mingze was worried that they would turn the kitchen upside down.
So he quickly interrupted them and said, "I'll eat them all."
"How about you two show off your skills at tonight's New Year's Eve dinner and order some northern and southern dishes."
Jingcheng is also in the south, but it is also in the north for Zhuhai people.
Lu Mingze smiled at the two people who looked over and said, "Make it more filling."
"Okay!" Qin Zhang and Lu Lingze said in unison.
Lu Mingze nodded: "Then I'll trouble you two."
He was feeling a little uncomfortable trying to hold back his laughter.
Looking at the red and purple faces on them, I couldn't help but laugh.
Qin Zhang dropped the food in his hand and walked up to Lu Mingze: "Wife, don't you love me anymore?"
"Hey, why are you asking?" Lu Mingze glared at him.
Qin Zhang: "Why are you so polite to me?"
"It's not a bother at all. Besides, isn't it normal for you to bother me?"
Lu Lingze felt pain in his eyes.
He walked over and pulled Qin Zhang away: "Are you done yet? Are you responsible if my brother starves to death?"
Lu Mingze: "..."
New Year's Eve was a chaotic day.
Mainly Qin Zhang and Lu Lingze.
Lu Mingze doubted whether they would start fighting at the dinner table while eating.
But it was obvious that he was overthinking it.
After the two men clinked their glasses during the meal, they began to treat each other like brothers.
The word "brother" that Lu Mingze was not yet bold enough to call out was spoken out clearly by Qin Zhang.
"Don't worry, if I dare to make Mingze unhappy in the future, you are welcome to come and beat me up at any time, and I will never fight back."
"My brother found someone he likes, and I am happy for him."
"From now on you are my real brother." Qin Zhang filled Lu Lingze's glass with wine.
Lu Lingze laughed: "From now on you will be my sister-in-law."
Qin Zhang: “…”
Lu Mingze: "..."
Qin Zhang: "Can't it be my brother-in-law?"
What the hell is my brother-in-law! ! !
Lu Mingze was pressing his solar plexus, so there was no way he could expect Lu Lingze not to talk nonsense to Qin Zhang and the others.
By the end, he no longer had any idea what nonsense these two people were talking about.
After he finished eating, he went outside by himself.
Although it was thirty, the door of a small shop was still open.
Lu Mingze walked over to make a phone call, and the boss held out his hand: "It's two dollars a minute to make a call."
This is a sky-high price.
However, making phone calls is not cheap at ordinary times, and today the price has increased several times.
That's understandable.
After all, it’s the New Year.
Lu Mingze searched his pockets. Qin Zhang’s money was now with him, so he was not short of money.
It’s expensive, so be it.
He contacted Jiang Cheng first. After Jiang Cheng returned home, he found that a small shop had opened next to his house.
It's very convenient to make a phone call.
Not long after, Jiang Cheng ran over and answered the phone. When he heard that it was him, he immediately became happy even though he was originally in a bad mood.
"Mingze, Happy New Year!"
Jiang Cheng felt that there was no change. He was a chatterbox and said whatever he wanted to say.
Lu Mingze watched the call time go up second by second and felt that he should not have made this call.
Just as Jiang Cheng wanted to talk about the situation in Jingcheng, he saw a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye, and Jiang Cheng's voice stopped abruptly.
"What's wrong?" Lu Mingze didn't hear any sound for a long time and thought the line was disconnected.
Jiang Cheng reacted: "Oh, well, well, I have something to do. I'll hang up first."
After saying that, he hung up the phone without waiting for Lu Mingze to speak.
Lu Mingze looked at the one second that just passed after the five minutes and fell into deep thought.
"One more second is two dollars." The shop owner was worried that he would not pay, so he quickly said, "This is a long-distance call."
Lu Mingze sighed: "I'll fight another one."
"Okay, go ahead and fight."
The boss is in a very good mood as he can still make money during the Chinese New Year.
This time Lu Mingze fought in the village.
The phone was picked up as soon as it rang, and the familiar voice of the village chief rang out: "Hello, is this Mingze?"
"It's me!" Lu Mingze said with a smile, "Uncle, congratulations on your New Year's Eve."
"Oh, Mingze, I knew Mingze would call."
"Give me the phone. I want to talk to Mingze."
"I didn't even tell you, why did I give it to you?"
There was a lot of noise on the phone, and Lu Mingze could tell who were on the line.
He couldn't help laughing: "Why not turn on the hands-free mode?"
This way everyone can hear it and he can also hear the voices of others.
The village chief immediately agreed, and then turned on the hands-free function under Lu Mingze's online guidance.
The phone had been installed for some time, but Lu Mingze seldom used it.
No one called Lu Mingze, mainly because they didn't know Lu Mingze's contact information.
"Mingze, I see the canning factory has been acquired now, so you shouldn't have any problems with that matter anymore."
The village chief cautiously probed: "If there is no problem, come back and play."
"It's not a good idea to be outside all the time."
"That's right. Auntie misses you so much." Auntie Li took over the conversation and said, "Mingze, Comrade Xiao Qin has rarely come over recently."
"I think that thing has definitely blown over."
"We are worried about you being out here alone during Chinese New Year."
As they talked, everyone started talking again.
Lu Mingze listened patiently, and when the other side quieted down, he said, "I'm going to go back in the next two days."
"Really?"
His words were like a drop of water dropped into boiling oil, which immediately caused the oil to explode.
Everyone asked him to verify the authenticity of his words.
After getting Lu Mingze's accurate response, everyone cheered.
I haven't seen him for three years. Although he is not my biological child, I have raised him for many years.
Moreover, Lu Mingze is not an ungrateful person. Even when he was fleeing outside, he still insisted on sending money and things back home every once in a while.
Who wouldn’t like such a younger generation?
The most important thing is that thanks to Lu Mingze's matchmaking, Lu Zhaoyi has led the entire village to slowly develop.
Qin Zhang also built a road for the village. Now several villages want to emulate their village and become rich.
These were all brought to them by Lu Mingze, how could they not look forward to his return?
"Then auntie will clean up your house and buy some new things for you."
"Yes, clean it up so it will be more comfortable for Mingze to come back."
Everyone was talking at once. Lu Mingze was originally listening with a smile, but as he listened he felt his eyes getting a little warm.
Finally, the village chief said, "Okay, everyone stop talking and wait until Mingze comes back to talk."
"Phone bills are expensive, and it's not easy for children to work and earn money outside. We can't add to their burden."
"Yes, yes, hang up then."
I don't know who said that, and then the phone was hung up again.
Lu Mingze looked at the past second and felt a little unwell.
