Lin Guoqing took a ride to the city early in the morning. Today happened to be Sunday, so Lao Shi was on vacation. Lin Guoqing brought a jar of aged wine and bought a bag of apples before heading to his house.
"Hey! Come on, come on! What else do we have to bring between us brothers?"
Old Shi had lived a very comfortable life in the past two years, with a wife and children, and he had begun to gain weight in middle age. Shi Meimei ran over and called out "Uncle Lin" obediently, which made Lin Guoqing's heart melt.
"Oh! The little girl is still cute!"
"You talk like you don't have any daughters!" Lao Shi punched him. "Two boys and two girls, and you're still sighing. Who are you trying to envy to death?"
It’s a pity that he got married too late and couldn’t have more children, otherwise Meimei would definitely have other brothers and sisters.
Lin Guoqing laughed and waved his hands, "She was cute when she was little, but she's become infuriating now that she's grown up. My eldest daughter is pretty well behaved, but the younger one, oh my, isn't much better than her brother."
"Hahahaha...you're just being ungrateful!"
"National Day, come and have some tea." Lao Shi's wife brought two cups of tea and placed them on the coffee table. "Just your visit will make Lao Shi happy for several days. You two can chat for a while. I'm going to buy groceries now. Don't leave later! We'll have lunch at home today!"
"Hey, sister-in-law, don't bother me. I have to go home soon! My family is building a house, and I'm usually busy at work, so Chunhua is taking care of it all. If I hang out outside again on my day off and don't go home, she'll make me sleep on the floor!"
Lao Shi laughed heartily. "How can you call me a jerk when you come to my house? It's okay. At worst, we can just start eating earlier and let you go! Xiaoqin, go back quickly. We'll try to get Guoqing dinner by 10:30!"
"Hey! Okay!" Lao Shi's wife took her daughter in one hand, carried the basket in the other and went out.
Lin Guoqing was really at a loss for words. Who eats lunch at 10:30? But he also knew Lao Shi. If he said he wanted to stay for dinner, he would definitely stay for dinner. If he ran away, he would carry you back. It was better not to argue with him.
"Brother Shi, I came here today mainly because I have something to ask you."
"What's the matter? Tell me!"
"In your steel plant, there is a driver named Qi Jinzhou."
"Jin Zhou? Do you know him?"
After hearing this, Lin Guoqing knew that he didn't need to wait until next time to find out. He told Lao Shi everything about how he saved Sanni, how they seemed to be attracted to each other, and how Sanni's family wanted to recruit a live-in son-in-law.
"Yesterday, that girl came back and said that Xiao Qi had told her directly about their relationship, and she was also a little interested. Brother Shi, you have a daughter at home too, so you should understand that we, as parents of girls, always want to understand this matter clearly before we can let the children go out and play, right?"
"That's right, that's right. We must understand it well." Lao Shi nodded repeatedly. "In this world, there are people who break up halfway through a relationship, and there are even people who get the girl so badly that she can't live with him."
"But don't worry, Jinzhou is a really good kid!" Lao Shi wiped his face, put his elbows on his knees, and moved closer to Lin Guoqing.
"Guoqing, to be honest, when you first said that Jinzhou was interested in your niece, I wanted to jump up and clap my hands, seriously! That child, that child is so pitiful! If he could really get married, all the brothers in the factory would be relieved!"
Lao Shi said that since the child lost four relatives in a short period of time, he sat in that room for a whole month, facing the four portraits, without saying a word, like a wooden man. Everyone thought he was going crazy.
Qi Jinzhou's grandfather also worked at the steel mill. The children of the factory followed the older ones, and the older ones followed the older ones. They grew up together, playing and fighting, and were as close as brothers. Now that Qi Jinzhou's father was gone, Qi Jinzhou became everyone's child. The brothers went to the factory together to ask the leadership for future support for the child.
Then one day, Qi Jinzhou suddenly seemed to come back to life, and took the initiative to go out and ask the neighbor's grandmother across the street for food. Although he still looked like a wooden man, every time people went to his house to help, they would see him sitting in front of the portrait in a daze.
But his life was going on as usual. He went to school on time and ate on time. He obeyed whatever his uncles told him.
Until one day, a child from the factory came and said that Qi Jinzhou had beaten several children and one of them had a broken head.
Everyone then realized that it turned out that those bastards did not listen to the adults and told them not to bully Qi Jinzhou. Instead, they kept hanging around him and saying, "Your mother is a slut and your father is a murderer."
The injured children did not receive support from the adults, but were beaten even worse each time.
But there are always a few who don't obey discipline. The harder you beat them at home, the more trouble they will cause when they go out. If you must say something good about this, it's that Qi Jinzhou no longer has time to sit there and look at the portrait. When he has some free time, he goes out and fights, and he's not as stupid as a fool anymore.
The people in the factory didn't know how to discipline the kid. After all, he wasn't the one who started it. To put it bluntly, he was just acting in self-defense.
Then, a new police officer arrived in their area. He was particularly fond of catching troublemakers, regardless of age. He would investigate anyone involved in a fight or gambling. If you were disobedient, you'd spend a night in the interrogation room, and when you came out, you'd behave yourself for a long time. Only then did the situation gradually subside.
Qi Jinzhou had no problem with his IQ and was quick at studying and learning. When he graduated from high school, his parents couldn't recommend him to the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University, so he went straight to the factory.
The factory manager's intention was to keep him out of the workshop. He was already so strong, he could use it up and avoid getting into fights. The young man then said, "Aren't you afraid I'll come out with a hammer and hit someone?" The factory manager was so angry that he almost jumped up to show off his middle-aged prowess.
Finally, it was Lao Zhang who suggested that he come and learn to drive with me. Driving on the road required some skill, so within two years, he became the youngest driver in the factory.
In fact, it’s not that no one has introduced girls to Qi Jinzhou. However, every time Qi Jinzhou sees a girl, the first thing he says is, “Can you accept that my father is a murderer?”
Do you think this kid has a brain bubble? What girl can nod in front of you and say I don't mind?
But Qi Jinzhou said, when the matchmaker introduced the information, didn't she tell the girl's family about my family? If she did, why can't I ask?
Instead of bringing this up in arguments later on, it’s better to make it clear at the beginning.
But to be frank, who in the city, with any means, would be willing to marry their daughter off like this? Even if the parents are happy, the daughter isn't!
Besides, that guy won’t want a girl just because you give her to him!
This good young man gradually became older.

Excluding those who do not want to get married, those who are single at an older age and have no problems with their own conditions, there is an 80% chance that they are toxic people.
