Chapter 2 When fate picks up bricks

Lu Zhenzhong's head exploded with a "buzz".

"What should I do? What should I do?" My sister Lu Mei asked him with tears in her voice.

Although Lu Zhenzhong is the younger brother for three years, because he is a man and because he has read a lot of books, he unknowingly became the backbone of the family.Parents would ask him about something, and my sister would also ask him when she was undecided.

My sister's "what to do" were like daggers thrown at him.The dagger is sharp, and the knife is money.

Medical examination fee, hospitalization fee, operation fee, treatment fee... If you pass through all the barriers, you may end up losing both money and life.

To cure, or not to cure?

In Lu Zhenzhong's mind, the two choices collided with each other, so that he missed his sister's rambling narration of the process.It's nothing more than my father's dry cough for a long time, he is reluctant to spend money, and he doesn't go to see it next to him.

"Sister, don't worry. I'm a little confused, give me some time, I'll digest it."

"Zhenzhong! Why don't you come back sometime?"

"I'm definitely going back. However, it will take two days." The project at hand is reaching a critical point. As the leader of the small team, he can't just leave.

"Then I'll hide the medical report first. I'll wait for you to come back!"

After finishing talking with his sister, Lu Zhenzhong stood there blankly.

On the side of the concrete road in the park, Lu Zhenzhong frowned, looking deep and handsome.

Bingbulin passed by and saw Lu Zhenzhong at a glance.

"Johnny, what are you thinking? I've called you twice, but you haven't heard it yet!" Bingbulin clasped her arms in front of her chest and asked gracefully.

Lu Zhenzhong's troubles deepened.

The beautiful professional woman in front of him is his opponent for promotion.The two of them have been inspected by the manager at the Passenger Car Technology Center for half a year.At first Lu Zhenzhong didn't take this beautiful returnee seriously, but he soon realized that he judged people by appearance.

Being beautiful is not synonymous with being empty-headed.

The horror of Bingbulin is that, from the very beginning of the ECU bracket, water pipe, exhaust cover, three-way catalyst, starter, to the engine body, high-strength fasteners, lubrication system, cooling system and other components, She has done related development.

So much so that Lu Zhenzhong couldn't help but secretly inquired about how many years of experience she was hiding under her young and fashionable appearance.

"A little personal matter." Lu Zhenzhong smiled back.

This is Lu Zhenzhong.When he smiled, there were faint dimples on his cheeks, which made his smile even more charming.Even in a large manufacturing factory where men are overwhelmingly numerous, he is outstanding in appearance.

Bingbulin blinked her eyes, eagerly showing her willingness to continue listening.

But Lu Zhenzhong had no intention of being open and honest.

Lu Zhenzhong changed the topic, found an excuse, and bid farewell to Bingbulin.

In the midst of being upset, the clearest part in his mind is: Sang Baiyue!

Hurry up and discuss it with his wife Sang Baiyue, spending money on medical treatment is a big issue related to the quality of their married life.

But Sang Baiyue lives in her natal family, which is in the urban area.He rushed from Anting after get off work, and it took at least 2 hours on the road.

In desperation, I had to settle for the next best thing and choose video.

After get off work, Lu Zhenzhong returned to his home in Anting after working overtime for a while.

Along the way, he was trying to figure out how to tell Sang Baiyue about his father's suspected lung cancer.

Lu Zhenzhong's house was bought in Anting Garden. When he graduated from graduate school, his parents gave up everything and supported 6% of the down payment for the purchase.With the strong support of Volkswagen's 24-month salary a year, he repays the loan early after 5 years.

Compared with community names such as "Wusheng Villa" and "Guanlan Cangyuan", Anting Garden is much more simple.

Anting Garden is indeed the king of cost performance.The stair room has a high rate of occupancy, a construction area of ​​99 square meters, two bedrooms and two living rooms, more than enough for a family of three.It can also be changed from two rooms to three rooms for a family of four.

Although the top floor is suspected of being cold in winter and hot in summer, it is better than being quiet.

Lu Zhenzhong climbed up to the 6th floor and unlocked the door with his fingerprint.There is not much furniture in the house, and all the pieces are purchased according to Sang Baiyue's aesthetics.It has stood the test of time and is still pleasing to the eye.

Lu Zhenzhong changed into his slippers, and while taking off his coat, he couldn't wait to call Sang Baiyue.

According to his understanding, Sang Baiyue should have had dinner at this moment and is teaching her 4-year-old daughter Zhenqi to learn English.Even if Lu Zhenzhong told Sang Baiyue that the status of English had declined, Sang Baiyue still had an obsession with learning English.She arranged for her daughter Zhenqi to take English classes twice a week.

Rarity is happy not to have naps in kindergarten on Wednesdays and Fridays.As for the English class in the afternoon, the expensive foreign teaching institutions will really please the children. During the bouncing game play, the money is just, oh no, the class is over.

The video call is connected.

The smiling face of my daughter Zhenqi appeared on the screen.

Zhenqi happily grimaced in the camera, and Lu Zhenzhong patiently asked his daughter, "How was your day in kindergarten today" and "Did anything interesting happen?"Zhenqi answered irrelevant questions and talked about the things she cared about, sometimes showing off a difficult English tongue twister, and sometimes showing Dad her new painting.

After the father and daughter talked about each other for a while, Lu Zhenzhong cut to the point: "Where is Mom? Give Mom the phone, Dad has something to tell Mom."

Zhenqi looked around and replied, "Mom is not at home."

"Nonsense. Aren't you holding your mother's mobile phone?" Now who would forget to bring their mobile phone when they go out.

The mother-in-law appeared in the video in time, and she took up the conversation with a smile: "Zhenzhong, it's me. Xiaobai went out to take out the trash. What's the matter with you? I'll tell her when Xiaobai comes back."

Lu Zhenzhong has always been afraid of this mother-in-law.The reasons are complex, roughly two: one, he has no house in the urban area; two, the mother-in-law is snobbish.He quickly shied away and said that there was no rush.

call ended.

Out of politeness, Lu Zhenzhong waited for the other party to hang up.

The face of the mother-in-law frowning and looking for the switch button appeared on the screen, and at the same time there was the sweet and crisp voice of the daughter.

"Mom is out. Mom didn't pick up the trash."

"My dear girl, the trash is outside the door."

The corners of Lu Zhenzhong's mouth curled up amused by his daughter's stubbornness and earnestness.The mother-in-law's family would rather put garbage bags in the hallway overnight than keep them at home.

WeChat Ding Dong.

Lu Zhenzhong quickly checked.

It was a message from my sister Lu Mei.

"My dad asked about his medical report during dinner. I was so scared that I almost dropped what was in my hand. You must come back quickly. I can't handle it!"

Lu Zhen's restlessness intensified, but there was nothing he could do.

"Try to get back tomorrow night." Lu Zhenzhong replied on WeChat.Tomorrow is Friday.

Lu Zhenzhong had dinner in the cafeteria, so he didn't need to be busy with dinner after returning home.Wandering around the empty house for a couple of times, thinking that the garbage spot is not far from the mother-in-law's house, she sent Sang Baiyue "Are you back?"

After waiting for a long time without a reply, I went to take a shower.

There is a mirror on the wall in the bathroom, and every time you take a bath, the scene is very fragrant.There is no doubt that this is also Sang Baiyue's idea.It's a pity that Sang Baiyue has only lived in this house for 9 months, which is far longer than the renovation period.

In the ninth month after marriage, Sang Baiyue became pregnant.

Relying on her pregnancy, she didn't want to travel any longer, so she moved into her natal family in the urban area.

Lu Zhenzhong originally thought it was an expedient measure, so he readily agreed.

I never thought that the end of pregnancy is confinement, and the end of confinement is Xiao Maotou who needs to be carefully taken care of, and the end of Xiao Maotou is a kindergarten in the city, which is better.

Fast forward four years.

Lu Zhenzhong lived as a married couple on weekends for four years.

It's okay when nothing happens, but when something happens, it appears lonely.
