Chapter 143 Trip to Tai O (3)
Moisturized by the aura of Eucommia ulmoides, Mr. He's physical condition quickly recovered. Not only that, the old man's bright eyes showed a little light from time to time. Every time he looked at Eucommia ulmoides, the peculiar smell in it was very intriguing.
The old man subconsciously flexed his toes, a trace of surprise creeping into the corners of his eyes. But he quickly covered it up. At this time, Aunt Mei came over with a tray and smiled at Mr. He: It's time to take medicine.
Mr. He nodded with a smile, took the various small pills from Aunt Mei's hand, and drank them with a glass of warm water. Putting down the cup, he said to Aunt Mei: This medicine is not very effective. It is only three parts poisonous. From now on, please reduce it a little...
After hearing this, Aunt Mei said displeased: How is that possible? I have been eating it for so many years. What if something goes wrong if I stop eating? What will you do to me and the children?
Eucommia looked at the old couple and the young couple with a big age gap, and felt that the relationship between the two was quite good. Looking on with a smile, Mr. He glanced at Eucommia ulmoides and said to Aunt Mei: It's okay... How is the kitchen prepared? Don't let my guests go hungry.
Aunt Mei smiled at Eucommia ulmoides and replied: "We are all ready. Why do you still need to worry about these little things?"
Mr. He nodded with satisfaction and was about to say to Du Zhong: Let's go back and prepare for dinner. A middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes hurriedly ran in from the gate. He quickly came to Mr. He's side, bent down and said something into his ear.
After hearing this, Mr. He laughed and said: Today is such a good day. Is it like this for old friends to come and be friends? Open the door and come in... The middle-aged man agreed and ran quickly towards the door.
Mr. He said to Aunt Mei: Lao Miao is here. Go and send someone to prepare some of his favorite things. This old guy is very picky.
Aunt Mei was very happy when she heard this, nodded and said: Okay, Mr. Miao hasn't been here for a long time, I'll make arrangements right away.
After Aunt Mei left, Mr. He smiled at Eucommia ulmoides and said: In a moment, I will introduce you to a strange person.
Du Zhong looked at Mr. He with confusion, but he didn't ask who it was. Anyway, he had no acquaintance here. Guests could do whatever they wanted, and he could just listen to what others arranged. He nodded and didn't answer.
Not long after, I saw a black three-pronged business car slowly driving in. As soon as the car door opened after it stopped, the sound of a bell came out first, and then, a girl of sixteen or seventeen years old jumped out of the car. The bright big eyes looked at the two Eucommia ulmoides at a glance, and with a curl of her little mouth, she ran over and shouted sweetly: Grandpa He, did you miss me... This girl He was dressed in ethnic minority costumes, with a string of silver bells hanging on his exposed wrists, ankles and neck, which made a very pleasant sound when he ran.
When Mr. He saw the girl, he immediately burst into laughter and shouted happily: Ha... So it's Xiao Jingdouzi here? Du Zhong could tell that Mr. He liked this little bean in his mouth very much.
The girl ran up to Mr. He, first gave Mr. He a big hug, then pulled up Mr. He's sleeves, pouted and complained: "Grandpa He, I'm so old, and you still call people by their nicknames. How ridiculous." OK.
Her coquettish look made Mr. He burst into laughter. He patted the girl's arm and said with a smile: "You, no matter how old you are, you can't get rid of this nickname."
At this time, the voice behind the girl laughed: This girl, when you get off the car, remember to pick up your bag. You will lose everything all day long. Eucommia Xunsheng looked at him and was stunned, thinking: This old man is quite strong. Judging from the face, the person who came was definitely an old man, but judging from the exposed dark skin, he looked like he was in the prime of life, and the tall and bulging muscles did not look old at all.
Mr. He shook his head and smiled at the visitor: "This child has grown a lot, and so have you. You don't know to bring her here every time. I haven't seen this child in more than two years."
The strong old man helplessly waved his hands and said: Old man, I also have the right to speak. If it weren't for this girl's vacation, my son and daughter-in-law would not let her go, and it would be difficult for me to even meet her. After the old man finished speaking, he saw Eucommia ulmoides and said with a smile: Hey, we have guests.
Mr. He smiled and introduced Eucommia ulmoides: His name is Miao Feng, an old Miao tribe member. Then he said to Miao Feng: This is my little friend, his name is Eucommia ulmoides.
Miao Feng snorted and looked up and down Eucommia in surprise. He rarely saw his old friend treat a junior like this, and he was a little curious about Eucommia for a while.
Eucommia ulmoides is very knowledgeable, and she also knows that the origins of people who can enter the eyes of the old man are definitely not simple. He stood up and said politely to Miao Feng: Hello, Mr. Miao.
Miao Feng looked at it for a while and didn't find anything surprising, but he still nodded with a smile and said: The young man is very energetic, but his body is weak and he needs to practice.
In one sentence, Du Zhong was a little embarrassed. Compared with the old man's tendon and flesh, his small body was really a bit embarrassing. Mr. He waved his hand and joked to his old friend: "Don't judge people by your own standards. This kid is different from those brats in your family."
The girl also giggled and said: That's right, grandpa, don't be disgusted by your old-fashioned eyes. He raised his eyebrows at Eucommia ulmoides and said: Big brother, ignore him, he is just an old muscular man, and everyone looks thin.
One sentence made everyone present laugh. Not to mention, this girl doesn't feel a bit raw at all, but she looks completely familiar, and anyone can put a few words into her words. That little mouth was sweet, and in just a few minutes, he was shouting like a big brother.
Eucommia finally understood why Mr. He was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth after seeing this girl. This girl was just like the nickname he called her, she was really a little girl.
The girl was particularly lively and introduced herself to Du Zhong in a familiar manner. The girl's name is Miao Guling. Eucommia feels that her name is very appropriate for me. She is really a quirky little girl.
Everyone chatted under the grape trellis for a while, and Aunt Mei came out to greet everyone into the house. With Miao Guling, there is no need for Eucommia ulmoides to push the wheelchair. The little girl was chattering while pushing the wheelchair. She asked Mr. He how he was doing, and asked Aunt Mei what delicious food she had. During this time, she didn't forget that she was taller than her elder brother Eucommia ulmoides, while her elder brother was shorter. . Along the way, there were only girls laughing, and when Miao Guling walked, the bells rang, it was like a different kind of concert.
Not long after entering the room, Ah Wei came back with Xiang Tianqiang. Seeing the latter's excited look, Eucommia naturally knew that this guy must have gained a lot of benefits. Just as he thought, as soon as he entered the hall, Xiang Tianqiang greeted Mr. He and Aunt Mei respectfully, then quickly walked to Du Zhong with a face full of joy, and whispered gratefully to Du Zhong: Brother, , this time I have benefited from you, nothing more, the new casino brother will share [-]% of your shares.
Xiang Tianqiang was sincere. His trip to Tai O was fruitful. Not only did he successfully get involved in the gaming industry in Tai O, but he also got a very low price with Ah Wei’s introduction. Got a nice place. To have a casino that has begun to take shape here means that after holding it for a while, you can roll around and stuff money into your pocket like an old hen that lays golden eggs.
Although Du Zhong didn't know what happened during this period, looking at Xiang Tianqiang's proud look now, it was not difficult to guess some of the clues. He smiled and patted Xiang Tianqiang's arm and said: "As long as I am happy, it's fine. As for the shares, I don't need them. I have no interest in the gambling industry." He was telling the truth. If it was some serious business, he wouldn't have any objections. Although gambling can make money quickly, the risks are also high. He, Du Zhong, doesn't want to cause unnecessary trouble for his family just because of a small profit.
Xiang Tianqiang thought that Eucommia was dissatisfied with the lack of shares, so he quickly said: No, brother, it’s my brother who is stingy. In this way, from now on, the new casino will be [-]-[-] for you and me...
Knowing that Xiang Tianqiang had misunderstood, he waved his hand to interrupt him and said: "I don't dislike the small number of shares, I really have no interest in this industry. Besides..." As he spoke, Eucommia lowered his voice and said: "My family The old man will not allow his family members to get involved in this industry. Just run it well and make a fortune. Brother, I will be happy to see it.
Xiang Tianqiang is not a newly minted Ponyboy. When Eucommia said this, he immediately understood what it meant. Knowing that he was not rejecting because he disliked his stinginess, Xiang Tianqiang immediately felt relieved, nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, then brother, I am rich..."
Eucommia ulmoides shook his head and said: "I am happy to make a fortune from my brother..." The two laughed, and the friendship between them was all in this smile. Everyone sat around in the large restaurant, and the ancestors of the He family served the exquisite dishes one by one. Mr. He bowed unconsciously, stood up, reached out and picked up a one-foot-long lobster, and placed it on the Eucommia ulmoides. In front of him, he smiled and said: Come, try this. I asked Ah Wei to get it myself this morning. It's very fresh.
Mr. He didn't realize that his inadvertent move shocked most of the people present. Aunt Mei opened her mouth wide and the chopsticks in her hand fell on the table with a clatter. Ah Wei, who was standing behind Mr. He, rushed to help him with quick eyes and hands, but he was completely stunned on the spot.
Even Miao Feng and Miao Gu Ling looked at Mr. He in surprise, who was still unaware at this time. Aunt Mei stood up suddenly, quickly walked around the huge table, ran up to Mr. He almost like crazy, grabbed the latter's hand, and exclaimed: Old man, you... Did you just... stand up?
Ah Wei behind him was also very excited. He squatted on the other side, looked at Mr. He in disbelief and said: Master, can you move your legs?
Mr. He looked at Aunt Mei in confusion, and then at Ah Wei on the other side. He was not as surprised as others. He moved his legs first. In fact, he had already felt this discovery when he was under the grape trellis. It was indeed a subconscious action just now, wanting to let Eucommia ulmoides taste the fresh delicacy. He did not expect that he actually stood up on his own. He glanced sideways at Eucommia ulmoides, and saw that although the latter also imitated the others and showed surprise, with Mr. He's well-informed eyes, it was not difficult to see that Eucommia ulmoides was just faking it. I laughed secretly in my heart, and naturally I would not expose it. Hahaha smiled and said to Aunt Mei, Awei and everyone: I have been taking medicine for so long, it is normal to get better, don't make such a fuss, come on, keep taking it.
As he spoke, he patted Aunt Mei's hand and said with a smile: Don't let the guests see the joke. Go and take out the bottle of old wine that I have treasured for many years. I'm happy to have a drink with Eucommia ulmoides... ·
