urban life

Chapter 342
In winter in Northeast China, thousands of miles are covered with ice, thousands of miles of snow drifts, and heavy snow falls quietly. As time goes by, it gradually accumulates on the ground, roofs, and deep mountains, forming a world of ice and snow. Looking at it at a glance, I feel extremely happy.

However, Liu Shuhua stared at the distant snow scene through the window, frowned, and sighed deeply, quite melancholy.

Ever since her daughter left, she has been worrying about Hou Mengting who is far away. She is worried about her daughter's etiquette and manners, and she is also afraid of offending the other's parents with her words and deeds. But her mother can't help at all, so she can only worry secretly.

"Don't think so much." Hou Lin on the kang also sighed for it, and his mother was worried. Although he was cynical and informal, even though Hou Mengting took care of him, even though he understood Zhou An's nature, as a father, he still abandoned him. Unable to accept that responsibility, he tried his best to restrain his emotions, and comforted his wife, saying, "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and everything is God's will."

After a pause, she said bitterly: "That child Tingting is really real, she didn't even know to call us. When she comes back, I have to make a good meal."

"You?" Liu Shuhua withdrew her gaze from afar and squinted at her husband.

"."

Just one word fully expressed the disdain and contempt in his heart. Hou Lin touched his chest immediately, as if there was a big hole, and the pain was severe and painful.

At this time, a song was circling in his mind, but the person I love the most hurt me the most.

I'll just say it casually, you take it seriously, and besides, I comforted you with good intentions, but you hit me like this, are you still an indomitable woman?Hou Lin thought helplessly.

Just when Hou Lin was about to accuse Liu Shuhua, a loud bell rang, and the two looked at each other with joy shining in their eyes.

"Hey, Xiaoan." Liu Shuhua snatched the phone from Hou Lin's hand almost in an unreasonable manner, and gave him a fierce look. Then, like a skilled face-changing master, there was an indifferent smile on the corner of his mouth, and his tone was full of Gentle and kind.

Liu Shuhua, you have changed, you are so gentle to a man, you have never treated me like this, divorce!Hou Lin's grievance was beyond words.

The person who came was their future son-in-law, Zhou An.

Zhou An knew that not only Hou Mengting and Lao Zhou's family members were nervous about this visit, but also Hou Lin and his wife who were thousands of miles away. Marriage is a matter between two families. He thought it was his responsibility to inform his future father-in-law and mother-in-law , relieve anxiety.

Then, Zhou An told the two elders a series of things, from the beginning to the end, including the reactions of the sisters, the welcome ceremony arranged by the old Zhou's family, and told how much the old Zhou family liked Hou Mengting and hoped that she would marry into the Zhou family as soon as possible, and finally told her The New Year's greetings from the two elders have cultivated a perfect daughter-in-law.

After hearing the words, Liu Shuhua's heart that was about to jump out of her chest gradually calmed down and slowly returned to normal levels. While talking about where and where, telling Zhou An's parents and so on, there was an indelible smile on her face. Wrinkles squeeze together like a blooming chrysanthemum.

The two didn't chat for a long time, they simply told the situation, then hung up the phone, the ice and snow in their eyes were no longer cold and cold.

"Tingting did a lot of good deeds in her previous life, how could she find a boyfriend like Xiao An in the vast crowd." Liu Shuhua turned her head and saw her husband lying on the kang like a dead dog again, and couldn't help rolling her eyes, but her mood Quite good, too lazy to talk to the other party, "That kid has been a ghost since he was a child, no wonder he doesn't fall in love, he has a Prince Charming."

"Cut! There is no one who would put down his daughter like this." Hou Lin glanced at her, and said solemnly, "Our daughter also has many advantages, and there are no shortage of boys who like her since she was a child. She and Xiao An are a natural match."

Although his daughter disciplined Hou Lin and was targeted for every word and deed, all parents in the world loved their own flesh and blood from the bottom of their hearts. He would never allow anyone to comment on Hou Mengting like this, otherwise, he would fight desperately with that person (except Liu Shuhua).

"for example?"

Hearing the question, Hou Lin fell silent for an instant. After about ten seconds, he stroked his chin and said, "For example, our daughter can eat, and being able to eat is a blessing."

"."

Hou Lin sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, smiled sarcastically, rolled his eyes, changed the subject and said, "By the way, when will the little bastard come home? It's almost Chinese New Year, and I won't call. I'm so anxious. What are you going to do?" It's time to bring Xiang Jing home, or he can just come and visit Xiang Jing's parents."

"Hey!" The transfer technique was quite successful, Liu Shuhua immediately forgot about Hou Lin's mistake, and her brows furrowed tightly again.

The boss of the Hou family is seeing his future in-laws and is about to get married.

And the love of the second child is halfway through, and now he is in the period of passionate love. This guy is more worrying than the girl. He has neither a house nor a car. What should I do?

Parents in the world are always so great and tired. After worrying about this and that, for the sake of their children, there are countless exhaustions in their hearts.

However——Liu Shuhua really took too much pains, because Hou Mengting exists, Hou Junda doesn't have to worry about material things in his life, as long as he asks, the house and car are ready, whether it's "supporting the younger brother's devil" or spoiling her, she is just a younger brother anyway At worst, ask Zhou Anduo for a bride price.

Well, the ultimate pain bearer is Zhou An.

However, with Hou Junda's current salary, he can still buy a car and a house without help from others.

After a whole year of tempering, after being familiar with the business process and understanding the unspoken rules of the industry, Hou Junda now left the original decoration team and became the leader of a decoration team. He has several members under him and undertakes the decoration business alone. With a big backer, other decoration teams are looking for projects, but he is picking projects. Various high-standard decorations are assigned to their team, and the salary has doubled many times.

Including the bungalow that Zhou An spent a lot of money on, all of them were handed over to Hou Junda's team for decoration, so that the rich water would not flow into the fields of outsiders.

That bungalow has not been lived in for a long time, and many building facilities inside have not been repaired for a long time and need to be refurbished.Besides, the decoration style of the bungalow is not suitable for the sisters, it is a bit decayed and old, in her words, it is like living in a coffin.

"Ai ai ai, Liu Zi smashed it lightly, you won't be able to pay for the damage." Hou Junda told a team member beside him while drinking water, "We should adopt a more gentle approach to this kind of sky-high price house. "

"Brother Hou, this is not like your style of doing things." The six sons stopped, turned their heads and looked at each other with doubts on their faces.

"What do you know?" Another member of the troupe next to him interjected, with a playful tone in his tone, "Since you just came here, you should learn more, ask more questions, this house belongs to brother-in-law Hou , naturally you have to be very careful, and I will tell you a hot piece of knowledge by the way, Brother Hou's sister is very domineering and majestic, Brother Hou can't afford to offend."

As soon as this remark came out, several people around looked at each other for a few times, and there was a clear smile in their eyes, and then they laughed out loud, and even coughed.

Most of the decoration team members are old friends of Hou Junda. Hou Mengting's methods and methods of treating her younger brother are 'widely praised'.

Hou Junda glared viciously at the colleague who interrupted, but everyone had known each other's temper for a long time, and laughed even louder after getting along with each other for a long time.

Heck, no majesty in front of subordinates.

So angry.

"Smile with a hammer." Hou Junda rolled his eyes, "Be serious, be careful, I will open you."

"Brother Hou, we are using a smile to cover up the sadness in our hearts." The interjecting man next to him slowly stopped smiling, patted Hou Junda on the shoulder, and then explained in an envious tone, "Your sister treats her viciously and arrogantly like that. However, it can be seen that your sister really cares about you, if I want to have such a sister, I have to wake up laughing in my sleep."

Seeing Fang Fu's unconvinced expression, the man interrupted without waiting for him to speak, and continued: "You don't know how to be blessed while you are in the blessing, so don't sigh every day. Think about it, you have only been in the company for a year, and you are already able to Leading a decoration team alone, we ordinary people can't do what you do in a lifetime, and all kinds of good projects and business will be delivered to your door."

"Let's talk about this bungalow, your brother-in-law bought it, and the decoration with tens of millions of funds, so many people in the company are greedy, and this is just your starting point. In the future, you will never stop here. There is better room for improvement, and we The gap between this kind of poor buddies is getting bigger and bigger, and everyone will have to call you Mr. Hou by then."

While speaking, the surroundings seem to fall into a kind of silence, and the gap between people is like heaven and earth, which is hard to understand for a lifetime.

"But that's my brother-in-law, what does it have to do with my sister?" Hou Junda didn't know how to answer, the CPU burned all of a sudden, and he replied in a daze.

For a moment, the people around were silent and looked at him with strange eyes, as if there was a fool in front of them.

"."

Well, Hou Junda gradually came to his senses, if there was no sister, where would his brother-in-law come from?

"Forget it, I can't tell you clearly." He waved his hand, "My brother-in-law is my brother-in-law, and my sister is my sister. These are not the same thing. Every family has difficulties."

Brother-in-law Zhou An's good intentions will definitely not offset his "hate" towards his sister, otherwise the hard work of the first 20 years would not be in vain.

"What are you talking about? So happy." Just when the few people around were feeling speechless, a sharp voice sounded, "Your brother-in-law is no different from your sister. The two are about to get married, and they will soon be a family."

Hearing this, the entire construction team immediately became energetic and said in unison: "Young Master Deng!"

The person who came was the representative of the scumbag world, Deng Hengtao.

Walking to Hou Junda's side, he patted the latter's shoulder, and said slowly: "However——your sister seems to have two brushes. Your kid must have had a very miserable childhood."

"."

Seeing the future boss coming, several people around started to devote themselves to work, Hou Junda handed over a glass of water and said, "Brother Tao, why are you here?"

"I happen to be doing something nearby, so let's take a look." Deng Hengtao looked left and right, nodded from time to time, obviously very satisfied with this, then turned his head and said, "You haven't led a construction team for long, and you don't have enough experience , I didn’t quite trust you at first, but now it seems that you are quite capable.”

Zhou An asked him to come here because this is the first time Hou Junda has dealt with such a large house, the price of which is hundreds of millions, and he is afraid that he will be at a loss for a while, flustered, and mistakes will be made everywhere in the decoration process.

In fact - Zhou An doesn't care about how he pretends, anyway, the big deal is to install it again, he has money, but the sisters will definitely blame the younger brother for wasting money, after all, the money does not belong to her, but to her husband, It is not in line with Zhou An's wishes to cause family conflicts because of money.

From the point of view of a scumbag, everything in front of him is really beyond expectations.

"Hey, Brother Tao, the few people you found for me are professional, and I will do as they say." After hearing the words, Hou Junda scratched his head with an embarrassed expression.

"Small matter!" The scumbag waved his hand, didn't care, took out his phone and looked at it, "Let's go, Chinese New Year is coming soon, I'll treat you to dinner."

However, Hou Junda hesitated for a while, and said softly: "Brother Tao, I'm sorry, can you take this meal another day?"

"What? Dislike me? You are Brother An's brother-in-law, and that is my brother-in-law. Brother An and I both find fat in a pair of pants."

"Hey! No, no, how dare you." Hou Junda said, "Brother Tao, I am obliged to treat you as a treat, so how dare I refuse. My sister and brother-in-law are getting married soon, and this house is their wedding room , the place where I will live in the future, An Ge handed it to me, I have the obligation to do better, so it takes time."

Because bungalows cannot be decorated extensively, the construction period of this bungalow is not long, but this house is built for relatives after all, and no rags are allowed. Hou Junda plans to devote [-]% of his time and energy to it.

But this is not for Hou Mengting, but for Zhou An.

To be honest, he felt a little indebted to Zhou An in his heart. From the moment he came to Shanghai, he accepted the help and support of his future brother-in-law. Although he called Zhou An brother-in-law, the word brother-in-law was not so Selfless help, he is a person who knows how to advance and retreat, and knows how to be content, so he always wants to repay the other party.

However, I tried my best and still couldn't find a way to repay.

money?Come on, does Zhou An like his dates?
woman?Hou Mengting had to hack him to death.

Originally, he wanted to use the strength of the League of Legends gold rank to lead Zhou An to the top, but he lost in a row, and he fell into the silver rank by the way, and he has not yet climbed to the gold rank.

Decorating and supervising the two people's love nest is Hou Junda's reward. Although it is very small, he really can't give more.

"OK!" A smile appeared on the corner of the scumbag's mouth, and he patted his shoulder, "There is plenty of time to eat, but once things are over, we can't do it again."

While talking, he took out a red envelope from his pocket: "It's almost Chinese New Year, go home early."

Hou Junda did not refuse, nodded and accepted.

"Damn it, three thousand!"

"As soon as Young Master Deng makes a move, it's just whether there is one, rich and generous!"

"Brother Hou, you have quite a lot of red envelopes. Let's treat you brothers to dinner tonight."

"Okay, as long as you work hard, I will send you a big red envelope during the Spring Festival." Hou Junda put away the red envelope and said softly.

"Row!"

"As long as the money is in place, the glass will be shattered!"
