Zhou Pan's arrival was once again warmly welcomed by all members of the Lao Shi family. Su Sanlan was even more like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, and the more she looked at him, the more satisfied she became.
When Shi Si's wife saw Zhou Pan for the first time, she was completely stunned. She had always known that her sister-in-law's boyfriend was an officer, but she didn't expect that this officer not only held a high position, but was also so handsome.
To be honest, she was a little jealous of her sister-in-law. She had such a good life.
Shi Liu had told Su Sanlan about the trip to Beijing early in the morning, so everyone in the Shi family knew the purpose of Zhou Pan's trip.
Su Sanlan looked at her daughter, patted her chest, and assured her, "Shiliu, don't worry about playing with your son-in-law. I'll keep an eye on the admission letter for you and I won't miss it."
Shi Liu originally planned to wait until she received the admission letter before going, but Zhou Pan's vacation was not easy to get, so she had to leave early. Fortunately, there should not be many people who look like her.
Seeing the familiar conductor Wang Zhe on the train again, Shi Liu nodded and greeted him, then followed Zhou Pan into the carriage.
After a while, Wang Zhe came over: "Boss, let's discuss something——"
Zhou Pan raised his eyelids and said, "Why, are you trying to trick the human traffickers?"
Wang Zhe scratched his head in embarrassment after his motive was exposed. He didn't hide anything and simply admitted, "Human traffickers are rampant along the route from Shandong Province to Beijing City. They hide so well that the crew members don't even notice anything unusual. If it weren't for so many family members reporting the incident, we wouldn't have known about it."
Zhou Pan did not agree with Shi Liu's decision to take risks, but Shi Liu felt it was exciting and wanted to get involved.
As for the specific operation, it was actually no different from taking a train in the past. As soon as Shi Liu sat there, the traffickers started to act...
Wang Zhe smiled with his big white teeth showing: "Sister-in-law, you can take the same bus with me when you come back." It was really exciting.
Zhou Pan hurriedly stopped Shi Liu and said to Wang Zhe, "You are stupid to think that human traffickers. I guess they will be very honest for the next period of time." After all, so many people have just been involved. As long as they are not stupid, they should hide away honestly.
Wang Zhe smacked his lips twice and could only give up the idea with regret: "Okay then, let's get together again when we have time."
Zhou Pan nodded: "Let's have dinner together when we're free."
After seeing Wang Zhe off, Shi Liu breathed a sigh of relief. Comrade Wang Zhe was really too enthusiastic and she was a little overwhelmed.
Zhou Pan glanced at her with amusement. He didn't know who was the one who agreed excitedly at the beginning. He felt that if it happened a few more times, all the train attendants would be familiar with her.
"Okay, since you don't want to live in the Zhou family, let's go directly to the courtyard."
Shi Liu looked at the sack at her feet and said with a headache, "You're not planning to walk there like this, are you? I don't mind, after all, I don't need to carry anything, but you..."
Zhou Pan picked up the sack and said, "Don't worry, someone will pick us up on the other side of the street."
Shi Liu nodded and understood. It was indeed difficult to park near the train station with so many people coming and going, and it would easily cause traffic congestion.
Sure enough, a young man leaned against a jeep and greeted the two men from a distance, "Brother, here, here!"
Shi Liu blinked at Zhou Pan and asked, "Who is this?"
Zhou Pan looked at the other party waving his arms exaggeratedly and said helplessly, "Zhou Laoliu, the sixth cousin of the old Zhou family."
"Oh——" Shi Liu knew that this person was Zhou Liu who spread his grandfather's embarrassing story all over Beijing. As expected of a journalist, he had a loud voice and his pronunciation was clear.
Zhou Laoliu had no idea he had been given a nickname. He looked at his eldest brother who was extremely happy. "Brother, the third brother originally said he would come to pick you up, but I took the job. Let me tell you, ever since I exposed the fact that the old man was blind last time, the old man has been feeling guilty and short of breath. He no longer dares to control me, hahahaha..."
Zhou Pan pinched the bridge of his nose and said, "Is it possible that the old man is too lazy to care about you?"
Zhou Laoliu waved his hands nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter. Anyway, the old man finally stopped calling me to the old house to scold me every few days. After all, the old man is too embarrassed to scold me now."
Looking at Zhou Liu's arrogant look, Shi Liu felt that Zhou Pan really had good vision. He had chosen Zhou Liu as a trick to trick the old man at first sight. Looking at his gloating look now, he must have wanted to trick the old man for a long time. With such a "filial" grandson, Old Man Zhou is really lucky, hahahaha...
Seeing that Shi Liu was laughing secretly, Zhou Pan thought that these two people were funny guys and reminded them: "You two should be more careful in front of the old man. He is old, so give him some face." Don't make him angry, after all, the old man is a man who cares about his reputation.
Zhou Laoliu stuck out his tongue: "I know, I'm just talking nonsense in front of you guys. I wouldn't dare to do that in front of you, after all, I'm not you, big brother." Even though he dared to cheat the old man, he didn't have the courage to mock him in front of him.
Zhou Pan raised his eyebrows. Perhaps the old man just liked this kind of energy in the younger generation. It seemed that the old man always scolded the sixth child. In fact, among all his grandchildren, except himself, the sixth child was the most loved by the old man.
Zhou Laoliu asked while driving: "Brother, let's go directly to Huayue Hotel for dinner. I have already booked a table. The brothers are all waiting to meet my sister-in-law."
The brothers Zhou Laoliu mentioned were naturally not from the Zhou family's generation, but his childhood friends who played well with him. Of course, this group of people also had a very good relationship with Zhou Pan. Before Zhou Pan went to the army, they all followed him. Now that they heard that the eldest brother had a girlfriend, they all wanted to meet him.
Neither Zhou Pan nor Shi Liu had any objection to this. Besides, they were both really hungry at the moment.
Huayue Hotel is different from state-owned hotels. It is generally used to entertain foreign guests. The dishes there are very rich. It is said that the leaders above have specially gathered a group of chefs with excellent cooking skills to cook. Even if you want to eat a full banquet, they can make it for you.
Shi Liu's mouth was watering as she listened to the talk along the way. She was so embarrassed to spend the last few days on the train that she would definitely order a few more dishes later.
As soon as the three people entered the box, they were surrounded by three young men, each of whom kept calling them "Big Brother".
Seeing this, Shi Liu just wanted to laugh. He is your brother in society. Even after not being the big brother for many years, he is still the big brother!
Zhou Pan looked at the three kids with a gentle look in his eyes: "Aren't you three going to work?"
Gangzi was the first to speak up: "Don't mention it. My old man wants me to work at the street office, but I feel bored and don't really want to go. Oh, brother, I've registered for this year's college entrance examination. I plan to go to Hai City to attend university and join you, brother."
"Yes, yes, we all took the college entrance examination this year and planned to go to Hai City no matter what."
Zhou Pan naturally had no objections to his younger brothers joining him first: "Okay, what are your ideas for future majors?" (End of this chapter)
