Chapter 568 Departure to Shanghai
It turns out that in this family, not only the parents are working hard, but the two older brothers are also trying their best to let the younger sister see the kindness they exude.
Originally, if they had just given the car to the young couple to drive to Shanghai, they would have been thanked, but every family member still considered everything for them.
There are not so many coincidences. If you want to go to Shanghai, your partner in the same industry will come to you. It must be someone doing it deliberately.
For example, Li Jie mentioned that his family had connections with this brother there, and this brother was obviously one of the links.
As if remembering something, Li Jie said as soon as the car started, "By the way, my parents were worried that it would be inconvenient to refuel during the journey, so they put five barrels of gasoline in the trunk in case of emergency."
The two of them just brought a simple luggage bag and put it on the back seat when they got in the car, so they didn't notice this.
Looking up, I saw Li Lu thinking about a lot of things to say, but probably found it hard to speak, so she only said one sentence in the end: "Brother, thank you."
"Hey, isn't it my duty to take care of you?"
The place where we were going to pick up the person was not far from the Housing Management Office, so it took us more than ten minutes to get around until the other person got in the car.
Li Lu took a look at him when he opened the car door. He was indeed dressed differently from most people in this era. His clothes were obviously more expensive, and the watch on his wrist was not seen in supply and marketing cooperatives or department stores.
If I remember correctly the brand above, it should be the same as the one Ye Yi had, but the watch seemed to be called "Ou Something Something". Anyway, when Wen Xu Ning mentioned it, she emphasized that the price was very high. The most common model cost about eight or nine hundred yuan, and it could only be purchased in overseas Chinese stores.
However, the visitor was not arrogant. Instead, he greeted the couple in the back seat and then said naturally, "Brother Jie, this is our sister? Would you like to introduce her to me?"
"You're asking questions before you're even seated. I'm going to wait until I'm settled before I start talking. Just put your stuff in the trunk, take out the kettle and put it in the middle or at your feet."
Setting off again, Li Jie also "diligently" introduced the three people in the car to each other.
"Little sister, the man in front of me is called Chen Yu. He is the buddy I mentioned before who opened a shop with me in the Ancient Martial Domain. He now has a sinecure in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Otherwise, he wouldn't have so much free time to leave at any time.
If your sister has any problems in Shanghai, just contact him. ”
After being introduced, the other party responded readily: "Yes, if you have anything to say, tell your brother. He knows how to find me. I'll also leave you a number in case you need me."
Although he was driving, Li Jie still bumped fists with the other party in gratitude.
"Yuzi, this is my sister, she is currently a sophomore at National Tsing Hua University, majoring in finance.
The one next to him is my brother-in-law. He is in the Kyoto Military Region Army and his rank is regular battalion commander. This person is not only a good brother of Brother Jun, but also a soldier under his command. ”
After this introduction, the relationship becomes immediately clear.
There were many talkative people in the car, so during the several-hour journey, not only was there no dull moment, but the more they talked, the more they got along. Especially the three men, they all felt that they had met too late.
And because we were constantly taking turns as drivers, no one felt particularly tired when we arrived at our destination.
Two rooms were booked in the guesthouse closest to Li Zhongye's home, one for Li Jie and one for Li Lu and Jiang Tao. The signs behind the keys read 211 and 212 respectively.
There was no doubt that these were two adjacent or opposite rooms. Li Lu realized that the front desk clerk had obtained the numbers on purpose. Seeing that the other party was a girl, she was about to express her gratitude, but she noticed the look she gave her elder brother.
Come on, it's better not to embarrass myself. I thought I would receive a thank you from the man in front of me, and even get to know him later, but in the end I was left with disappointment.
The reason was simple. The front desk clerk almost made his intention clear, but the three men noticed it earlier. Jiang Tao took out his marriage certificate as soon as he arrived, so the other party didn't have any intentions on him.
In the eyes of these little girls, the other two are just glaring fat pieces of meat.
Perhaps they were used to dealing with such situations, so apart from asking about the room at the beginning, Li Jie and Chen Yu left the rest of the necessary communication to the young couple.
After the three of them were almost settled, Chen Yu drove away first. Before leaving, he specifically left a number for Li Jie and gave him some instructions for a long time.
Seeing that the younger sister was confused about his not living here, she explained as she went upstairs, "It was mentioned before that his uncle is in Shanghai, so since he's here, it's only natural that he should come to visit.
Besides, parking was inconvenient at the guesthouse, so I let Yuzi take the car away when I left.
Okay, we'll go out for a walk tomorrow, and you guys can go about your business, but remember, if you have any problems, go to Big Brother first to resolve them. ”
The reminder was finished just as they reached the door of Room 211. The two sides said good night to each other and went back to their respective rooms.
Early the next morning, when it was just dawn outside, Li Lu and Jiang Tao left the guesthouse.
The girl on duty at the front desk downstairs was the same one from last night. When she saw the two of them, her eyes were filled with indescribable resentment.
This made the couple quicken their pace and leave.
The reason for choosing this time is very simple. I am afraid that if I go too late, the person may be out and not at home, so I will be leaving empty-handed.
It was because no one thought of calling Chu Ying to tell her before leaving.
I walked to the door and looked at my watch. It was not yet seven o'clock. After knocking on the door, I soon heard a voice asking who was outside.
Before Li Lu could answer, the door in front of her was opened.
Li Fei saw her sister and an unfamiliar man outside. From their behavior, she could guess that the other man was her brother-in-law whom she had never met before.
Perhaps they were too surprised and didn't react for a long time. I should have let them in first.
"Sister, I won't let your brother-in-law be turned away on his first visit, right?"
This sentence was like a spell to lift the seal, and Li Fei immediately moved after saying it.
"You are still so mischievous. You didn't react when you saw me when I opened the door. You called me two days ago, and now you suddenly appear in front of me. Who wouldn't be surprised?"
After saying this, he looked at Jiang Tao again: "I finally met my brother-in-law. Before, I only heard Xiaolu's description in letters. Each letter was three pages long, and half of it was praising you.
At first I thought he was just trying to please me, but now that I see him in person, he is really a nice person. Look at me, come in quickly and don't stand outside. ”
The young couple following behind kept exchanging eye contact.
Jiang Tao: A little more than half of them are praising me?
Li Lu: Can’t you be polite?
Jiang Tao: Okay, okay, whatever my wife says is right. hey-hey······
At this, he received a reproachful look from his wife.
Li Fei, who entered the house first, was of course unaware of the arguments between the two people behind him. He just went to the kitchen and prepared to pour out two glasses of water.
Li Lu also saw the packed luggage in the living room, the meaning was self-evident.
When the man came out with two teacups, I followed my sister's line of sight and saw clearly what she had discovered.
There were not many emotional ups and downs, he just simply talked about his plan: "I am also afraid that I will waste time or the adoptive parents will suddenly appear and I will not have time to leave, and there may be problems in breaking up the relationship.
It would be better to do it like this now and make all the preparations. Even the house outside, I have started looking for it in the past two days. ”
