Life 1984

Chapter 344 Good Luck

The person who opened the door was Zhu Lin's mother.

Zhu's mother has actually retired. She was re-employed to work in the hospital because of her excellent medical skills. She happened to be resting at home today. When she saw her daughter coming back, she was surprised: "Xiao Lin! Where have you been these two days? Your dad and I have been worried You. Divorce is not a big deal, this will always be your home."

Then she saw Li Yunhai, who was tall and handsome.

"Is this your friend? Please come in quickly." Zhu's mother was very happy when she saw that her daughter had brought a handsome boy back, and invited them to come and sit in the house.

Li Yunhai was embarrassed. It was the first time he came to the store with empty hands and he didn't even buy any fruit.

Zhu Lin didn't expect that his mother would have a day off, so he smiled and said, "Mom, this is Li Yunhai, and he is my friend."

Li Yunhai shouted respectfully: "Hello, aunt."

Mother Zhu smiled and said: "Hello, Comrade Xiao Li, which unit do you work in?"

Li Yunhai said: "I am self-employed."

Zhu's mother smiled kindly: "It's good to be self-employed. It's free and profitable."

Zhu Lin smiled and said, "Mom, I'll come back to get some clothes."

Zhu's mother asked Li Yunhai to sit down, and then followed Zhu Lin into the bedroom.

There is a set of wooden sofas in the living room with thick sofa cushions.

Li Yunhai sat down and saw a newspaper lying next to him, so he picked it up and read it.

Zhu's mother closed the door and asked her daughter, "Where do you live?"

Zhu Lin took his suitcase from the closet, opened it, packed his clothes, and said, "Mom, I found a place to live. I'm such an old person, it's okay to be filming outside all the time. You don't have to worry about me."

Seeing that she had brought clean sheets with her, Zhu's mother asked, "Who is that man outside?"

"Li Yunhai, didn't I introduce it to you?"

"What's the relationship between you two?"

"friend."

"I think he's still very young."

"He is only in his 20s, so of course he is young."

"Shall we leave after lunch? I'll cook now. Your dad misses you too. Let's meet at noon before leaving."

"Okay, Mom."

"Xiao Lin, your mother has taught you since you were a child that you should be a happy person, a person with fun, and not just a slave to work. After you are divorced, life must go on, and you must learn to handle work and life well. relation."

"Mom, I know. I will handle it. I am very happy now!"

"I still remember that you were very fond of Einstein when you were a child, and your idol was Marie Curie. I was particularly afraid that you would be like your father in the future, only doing research and lacking interest in life. That's why I trained you to learn from an early age. Music, dance, let you read extracurricular books. Cultivate your literary and artistic cells."

Zhu Lin chuckled and said, "Mom, you succeeded! You turned a daughter who could win the Nobel Prize in Science into a literary and artistic worker who won the Golden Eagle Award."

Mother Zhu said: "Yes, but you still haven't learned to enjoy the fun of life. A person's life is short, and a woman's flowering period is even shorter. Mom, no matter what choice you make, I hope you can live a happy life. . If one day we are no longer around to take care of you, you can live well."

Zhu Lin turned around, hugged his mother, and said: "Mom, I am very happy now. I have never been so happy! You are right, life is not just about work, so I want to take a break from acting and do something I like. Can you please say something about it?"

Mother Zhu said lovingly: "Of course! I'm very happy that you think so."

Zhu Lin packed his things.

There was a knock on the door outside.

When Li Yunhai saw that the Zhu family's mother and daughter were still inside, he put down the newspaper, stood up and opened the door.

Standing outside was a man in his 30s, dressed simply and quite tall.

He was obviously taken aback when he saw a strange man opening the door. He looked around unconfidently to make sure he didn't knock on the wrong door, and asked, "Who are you?"

Li Yunhai said: "I am Zhu Lin's friend, who are you?"

The man walked in and said in a hostile tone: "I am her husband."

Li Yunhai said, "Ex-husband."

The man's expression changed, but he didn't say anything. He asked, "You are very young, in your twenties?"

Li Yunhai replied calmly: "It has nothing to do with you."

The man's expression paused, and he asked again: "What do you do? Is that car down there yours?"

Li Yunhai said: "The car belongs to me and I am self-employed."

The man smiled bitterly: "Very good!"

Zhu Lin and Zhu Mu came out.

When the man saw Zhu Lin, he said, "I came to see you. How are you doing?"

Zhu Lin took a deep breath: "Thank you for your greetings, but I don't need it anymore."

The man pointed at Li Yunhai: "Who is he?"

Zhu Lin said: "He is my friend."

The man smiled self-deprecatingly: "I can see that he is very handsome and a perfect match for you. Now that you have become famous, you can indeed find a better partner. I wish you the best."

Zhu Lin said: "Thank you for your blessing, but I don't need it."

The man said: "I'm sorry, Zhu Lin, what I want is an ordinary life. My wife can always be by my side and we can have a child together. My wish is not outrageous. This is the life process of most people."

Zhu Lin said: "I am the one who should say I'm sorry, because I can't give you the marriage and family you want."

Zhu's mother said: "Okay, don't talk about it anymore, let the past matter go by! I'll go cook, you all stay and finish the meal before leaving."

The man didn't have the face to stay and said: "Zhu Lin, you haven't come home these days. Mom called my factory to ask me. I was worried about you, so I came over to see you. Seeing that you lived so happily after the divorce, I also I feel relieved.”

After speaking, he turned and left without looking back.

Zhu Lin thought he would shed tears, but he turned out to be unusually calm.

She made tea for Li Yunhai and brought him fruit snacks.

Zhu's mother called her husband and told him that her daughter was back and asked him to go home early after get off work. Then she smiled and said to Li Yunhai: "Comrade Xiao Li, you stay and have dinner before leaving. My old man wants to see his daughter." "

Li Yunhai smiled and replied "Hello".

Zhu's mother arranged for her daughter to accompany the guests, and then entered the kitchen.

Zhu Lin touched Li Yunhai's hand and said with a smile: "They all misunderstood that you are my boyfriend!"

Li Yunhai said: "Doesn't it count? I am a man and I am your friend!"

Zhu Lin smiled sweetly: "I heard Gong Jie say, you want my autographed photo? But you don't dare to ask me for it in person?"

Li Yunhai said: "It's not that I don't dare, it's just that what I want is your swimsuit photos, and you can't carry them with you!"

Zhu Lin said: "Why do you want my swimsuit photos?"

Li Yunhai said: "I can see your daily life photos and art photos in magazines. What do you want? Since you have asked for them, of course you want private photos."

Zhu Lin took her hand and said, "Come, I'll give it to you."

Li Yunhai followed her into the bedroom.

Zhu Lin opened the bookcase, took out a photo album, and handed it to Li Yunhai: "You choose it yourself."

Li Yunhai sat down on the chair next to the desk and opened the photo album.

Photos of her as a child came into view.

Li Yunhai looked at the photo, then at her, and said with a smile: "They say women change in their eighteenth year, but you haven't changed at all. You are exactly the same as when you were a child."

Zhu Lin stood beside him and smiled softly: "Yes, my relatives and friends all say that I won't grow up."

Li Yunhai flipped through the pages, as if he had experienced Zhu Lin's growth process from childhood to adulthood.

"This one is good." Li Yunhai pointed to a photo of Zhu Lin in a swimsuit and said, "This one looks good!"

This is a swimsuit photo of Zhu Lin at the beach.

Not only is she gorgeous, but she also has such a great figure. Dressed in a blue swimsuit, she has a slim figure, well-shaped body, and is particularly charming.

Zhu Lin said: "This was taken last summer, and there were several other female stars with it, including Bai Ling, Yin Tingru, and Li Fengxu."

Li Yunhai saw another group photo and said, "Is this tall guy Bai Ling? She is also very beautiful, but she is too thin. She is not as plump as you."

Zhu Lin naturally put his elbow on Li Yunhai's shoulder and said with a smile: "You like me so much?"

Li Yunhai said: "I like it! This is it. You sign it for me and I'll keep it. Do you still have the negatives?"

"Yes." Zhu Lin took out the photo, signed his name on it, and said with a smile, "You are very strange. I am right in front of you, and you still want my autographed photo! If I were you, I wouldn't want the photo and just hug the person. Walk!"

Li Yunhai said: "I can understand that you are encouraging me?"

Zhu Lin handed him the photo and said, "Love does not need encouragement. Unless you don't love."

How could Li Yunhai stand her teasing?
What's more, this photo is so beautiful. You can see every aspect of your body under the swimsuit. It's so charming.

Li Yunhai hugged her slim waist and said, "Then I will take you away."

"Okay! Just use the princess hug and carry me into the car!" Zhu Lin hung his neck, fell into his arms, and said, "My mother criticized me just now, saying that I don't understand taste, Enjoy life. I think I need to take a few years off and enjoy life."

Their lips were as passionate as fire, and they were attracted together like a magnet.

I don’t know how long they kissed, but there was a sound of the door opening outside.

Zhu Lin then stood up, straightened his clothes, and said, "My dad is back."

Li Yunhai was afraid that the photo would be crumpled, so he took it in his hand and came out with Zhu Lin.

In the living room outside, two men came in.

The older one is Dad Zhu, who is very thin and elegant.

There was also a young man in his early thirties who was tall and handsome.

Father Zhu looked at his daughter and was about to speak when he suddenly saw a man with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes and a gentle temperament walking out of his daughter's boudoir. He couldn't help but was startled and asked with a strange expression: "Xiao Lin, who is this?"

Li Yunhai introduced himself generously, then raised the photo in his hand and said, "I am a fan of Zhu Lin and asked him for an autographed photo."

Father Zhu then softened his expression, nodded and said, "Hello, Comrade Xiao Li."

Li Yunhai thought to himself that all fathers in the world are indeed the most protective of their daughters. Father Zhu's cannibalistic look just now made him feel nervous!
Dad Zhu introduced the young man and said, "Xiao Lin, this is the youngest professor in our school. His name is Zhao Xuexin, and he has a PhD in physics."

Zhao Xuexin said politely: "Hello, Comrade Zhu Lin, I am also a fan of your movies. I am very happy to meet you in person. You are even more beautiful than on the screen! Indescribable beauty!"

Zhu Lin pursed his lips and smiled: "Because you majored in physics, of course you can't use physical formulas to describe a woman's beauty! A doctorate in physics is really amazing. My original dream was to learn physics well and then become like Madame Curie. the scientist!"

Zhao Xuexin was very happy to get Gong Wei.

Seeing that they hit it off like old friends, Dad Zhu said: "Xiao Lin, Xiao Xin, you two are single now. You can have more contact and communicate with each other in the future."

These words obviously meant to introduce his daughter to Zhao Xuexin as his girlfriend.

Zhu Lin heard it and said, "Dad, I'm not single, I'm divorced! I just got divorced! Teacher Zhao shouldn't be married yet, right?"

Zhao Xuexin nodded and said: "Zhu Lin, I have heard about your situation. I don't mind."

Zhu Lin chuckled and said, "What don't you mind? You've never been married! Have you ever been in love?"

Zhao Xuexin became a little nervous instantly. He kept wiping his hands on his knees and said awkwardly: "We talked about it and we broke up."

Zhu Lin was stunned: "We talked about it? Why did we break up?"

Zhao Xuexin said: "I used to be a school classmate. After graduation, she returned to work in a small county in the northwest, and I stayed in Beijin. The distance between the two was too far, so they separated. She is now married."

Dad Zhu said: "It's good to have been in love, and you understand women better!"

"Dad, you guys have a chat, and I'll help mom cook." Zhu Lin smiled and went into the kitchen to help.

Li Yunhai put the photo into his briefcase.

Dad Zhu looked at him and asked, "You just said your name is Li Yunhai? Where are you from?"

Li Yunhai put down his briefcase and replied respectfully: "I am from Meishan."

Dad Zhu yelled: "Meishan! I know, I went there when I was young. Are you developing in Beijin now?"

Li Yunhai said: "I travel everywhere, mainly in Xizhou."

Dad Zhu asked: "What kind of job do you do? Do you need to travel around?"

Li Yunhai said: "I am self-employed."

Dad Zhu said: "Self-employed? Don't you have a job?"

Li Yunhai said: "Doing business is my job."

Dad Zhu nodded and said: "You can say that. Now the country encourages the development of individual economy, and many smart people are doing business. There is a popular saying now, those who make missiles are not as good as those who sell tea eggs! You are very profitable!"

Li Yunhai said: "It's okay! Now is indeed the best era for the private economy." Dad Zhu asked: "Then what school did you go to?"

Li Yunhai said: "Graduated from a technical secondary school and is currently studying in an adult college."

Dad Zhu said: "Graduate from a technical secondary school? There should be a job assignment. You resigned and went to work, right? Then you are a young man with pursuits and ideals! My Xiaolin is a graduate of a medical university. He used to be a medical researcher. Later, she became an actress for her ideal and lost her job!"

Li Yunhai said: "Zhu Lin is a very smart and studious person. She can learn all kinds of knowledge very quickly. Mainly because she inherited the excellent genes of her parents. She can make a great career no matter which field she goes to."

Dad Zhu laughed: "As expected of a businessman, you are very good at talking."

Zhao Xuexin asked: "What line of work does Comrade Li do?"

Li Yunhai said: "Office supplies. Selling computers, copiers and so on."

Zhu Lin and Zhu's mother brought out the food together.

Li Yunhai stood up and helped set the dishes and chopsticks and add rice.

Zhu Lin smiled and said: "You don't need to do anything, just sit down. Dad, take out the bottle of good wine you treasure and drink it?"

Dad Zhu said: "Let's go! Let's go!"

A few people sat down. Li Yunhai picked up the bottle of wine, took a look at it, and said with a smile: "Gu Beichun, good wine!"

Dad Zhu exclaimed: "Comrade Xiao Li, do you know how to drink?"

Li Yunhai said: "There is Wuliangye in the south and Gubeichun in the north. This was a famous product in the past, and it was supplied by ticket. This is a gold-medal century-old cellar with a 52-degree strong aroma. It is also a treasure among wines."

Dad Zhu smiled and said, "It seems you are a drinking buddy."

Li Yunhai opened the seal and poured a glass for each of the three men, and half a glass for each of the two ladies.

He picked up the wine and toasted Zhu's father and Zhu's mother first.

This wine is white and delicate, with a rich and mellow aroma and a long aftertaste.

Zhu Lin sat next to him and whispered: "Didn't I tell you not to drink today?"

Li Yunhai was stunned, and then he thought of the agreement the two had made this morning, and thought to himself, was Zhu Lin serious about this?
Zhu Lin put some ribs into his bowl and said, "Eat vegetables."

Seeing them so close, Zhu's father and Zhu's mother couldn't help but look at each other.

After dinner, Zhao Xuexin stood up and left.

Even a fool could see that Zhu Lin had no interest in him at all, and it would only be embarrassing if he sat down again.

He is a knowledgeable person. Even if he likes Zhu Lin, he will not stalk him, not to mention that he doesn't have a single horoscope now!It was probably a good thing for him that it was over before it even started.

Father Zhu no longer kept him and sent him to the door.

"Dad, I found a house outside. I will move there later." Zhu Lin said to his father.

"Oh! Where?"

"It's right next to the Forbidden City and very close to Chang'an Avenue."

"When you have time, take us to see the house and identify the door."

"Okay! I'll come back to pick you up in two days."

Zhu Lin took out his luggage.

"Comrade Xiao Li, please carry your luggage downstairs first." Dad Zhu said.

Li Yunhai said hello, picked up his luggage and went out.

Dad Zhu asked calmly: "Xiao Lin, what's going on between you and this Comrade Xiao Li? Although we never interfere with your freedom of love and marriage, you can't be too willful, right? Comrade Xiao Li is younger than you. How can I be happy at so many years old?"

"Dad, you are not me, how do you know that I am unhappy?"

"Comrade Xiao Li graduated from a technical secondary school and is self-employed. No matter in every aspect, he is not a good match for you!"

"A good match? Dad, what are you thinking? People may not necessarily like your daughter!"

"Oh! My daughter is worthy enough to be a king!"

"Dad, your daughter has only played the role of the queen. You don't really think that I am the queen, do you? I am just an actor at best, and an actor in my 30s!"

"So you two are not suitable for each other. I only express my personal opinions and provide you with reference opinions."

"Dad, please stop worrying about me. Mr. Li is not an ordinary person. Even if I want to pursue him, he may not be able to like me."

"Is he so powerful? However, he is quite sophisticated and has a flexible mind!"

"Mr. Li has so many advantages! Anyway, I can't match him. Think about it, I admire him so much for his intelligence, how can he be inferior?"

"Dad is afraid that you will be deceived."

"I have been divorced once. If anyone can deceive me, then I deserve to be deceived."

"Okay, you make your own decisions about your own life, and we fully respect your personal wishes."

"Thank you dad!"

Li Yunhai carried his luggage down and came up again.

He went to the nearby store and bought a few bottles of good wine and some fruits. He brought them up and put them on the coffee table. He said with a smile: "I came in a hurry, and I didn't know that the second elder was at home. I was so polite that I still invited the second elder." Bear with me.”

Watching them leave chatting and laughing, Dad Zhu said to his wife: "Xiao Lin has found another spring!"

Mother Zhu said: "Comrade Xiao Li is a good person, but he is too young! I'm afraid the relationship between him and Xiao Lin will not last long."

Dad Zhu waved his hand and said: "Nowadays, there are many old couples and young wives, old wives and young husbands! We can't control this matter!"

They chatted for a while, then came down the corridor and looked downstairs, watching Li Yunhai and Zhu Lin get into a Santana car.

Mother Zhu said: "Comrade Li is quite rich? He bought a car!"

Dad Zhu said: "It's nothing to buy a car. He also hired a full-time driver! Didn't you see that the person who drove just now was a driver?"

Mother Zhu said: "So, Comrade Li's business is very big?"

Dad Zhu said: "Let's ask Xiao Lin another day! We can ignore this matter, but we have to ask, right? We must know the detailed information of Xiao Li's child."

The two watched the car drive away.

In the car, Zhu Lin said with a smile: "You said you were afraid of meeting my parents, but I didn't see you nervous when I did!"

Li Yunhai said: "It's not that I'm afraid, it's just that it feels too unexpected and I'm not prepared at all."

The two returned to the courtyard.

Zhuang Yong carried his luggage in.

Zhu Lin went to make the bed.

Li Yunhai stood in the yard, looking at the birdcage on the tree. When he heard the parrot inside chirping, he knew that the bird was hungry.He saw a bird food box before, so he immediately took it over and fed some to the birds.

He teased the parrot: "What can you say? Come on, learn one and let me listen."

The parrot only focused on eating and didn't even look at him.

Zhu Lin made the bed, came over and said with a smile: "It doesn't know you yet. We can teach it some words again."

Li Yunhai said: "Are you still planning to keep it?"

Zhu Lin said: "Why don't you throw it away? Keep it as a companion, it's quite fun."

Li Yunhai said: "Okay, you can keep it if you like. What if you go out to film? Hire a nanny to take care of it?"

Zhu Lin chuckled and said, "I don't even have a nanny to take care of me!"

Li Yunhai said: "Then I'll hire three nannies for you. One will cook, one will do housework, and one will give you a massage! When you were a child, you learned to dance and sprained your waist. It would be good to get more traditional Chinese massage."

Zhu Lin was stunned: "How did you know?"

Li Yunhai said: "I heard what others said."

Zhu Lin said: "Gong Jie must have told you! She tells you everything!"

Li Yunhai laughed and was noncommittal.

Zhu Lin said: "My waist was indeed injured, so I avoided the queue-jumping movement of going to the mountains and countryside. However, I also missed the opportunity to join the army art troupe. I was admitted, but people heard that I had a waist injury. If you’re hurt, don’t want me.”

Li Yunhai said: "Misfortune and fortune come together. You didn't join the art troupe, but you became a well-known actor."

His pager rang.

This courtyard house was originally equipped with a telephone, but the owner cut the cord before leaving.

Li Yunhai needs to be reopened.

He put the millet in his hand into the trough of the birdcage, clapped his hands, and went outside to find a phone to reset.

It was Leader Zhuang calling him.

Leader Zhuang told Li Yunhai that his request had been approved by his superiors!
Li Yunhai thought to himself that when Jianguo Hotel invested more than 2000 million US dollars, it received special attention. If I invest such a large amount now, I will definitely get special approval.

He also made a request, saying that the height limit near Chang'an Street should be no more than 45 meters for new buildings within the old city, and no more than 60 meters outside the old city. Is this height limit too restrictive?Based on the average floor height of three meters, only 60 floors can be built at 20 meters. After removing the podium, only 15 floors are left.Can you please break through a little bit?
Leader Zhuang said that we have to ask our superiors for instructions on this matter.

The height limit near the Forbidden City has been set long ago. The average building will not exceed 40 meters.

Li Yunhai requested that it be built to a height of 90 meters.

Leader Zhuang immediately asked his superiors for instructions, but in the end they only managed to reach a height of 68 meters, saying that this was already the limit and it was an exception.

Li Yunhai knew that this matter was very difficult, so he stopped insisting. If he said 68 meters, just 68 meters, and he could build three more floors!

Leader Zhuang smiled and said: "Mr. Li, happy news! Comrade Xixian was very happy after hearing the news that you were going to invest 10 billion US dollars in Beijin and said he wanted to meet you!"

Li Yunhai's mind buzzed!

Leader Zhuang said: "Tomorrow morning, we will pick you up and go to Beidaihe to meet you."

Li Yunhai said hello and said, "Boss Zhuang, I don't live in the Great Wall Hotel anymore. I'll tell you my current address."

Li Yunhai slowly put down the phone, his heart pounding.

This is a first-class event!
Li Yunhai quickly called Lin Zhi and told her about the matter.

Lin Zhi was also extremely happy: "Yunhai, this is a great thing!"

Li Yunhai said: "Do you want to come over?"

"I'm too late! Don't waste the time to see me!"

"Okay, I have to tell your dad."

"Yes, you must say it."

Li Yunhai called Lin Zhenbang again.

When Lin Zhenbang heard about this, he perked up and gave Li Yunhai some face-to-face advice.

Li Yunhai understood them one by one.

After the phone call, Li Yunhai called Zhuang Yong, went to the street and bought a pair of bridge cards.

Back home, Li Yunhai pulled Zhu Lin: "Come, come, play cards with me."

"What card?"

"Bridge!"

"Bridge? I can't play."

"I don't know how to do it either, so I have to learn it quickly."

"Why?"

"I have a face-to-face meeting tomorrow."

"what?"

"Stop it, come and play cards with me! I won't learn anything today, and I won't sleep at night."

"Okay! But there's no fire in the house yet, so we need to light one."

This courtyard house is a private residence for each family. The courtyard is spacious, the flowers and plants are luxuriant, the scenery is elegant, and it is quiet and quiet, but it has not yet installed heating.

At that time, whether you lived in a courtyard or a large courtyard, most of the heating methods were to burn briquettes.As soon as you enter the yard, the first thing you see is the coal stacks in the door aisle and under the windows.

Li Yunhai smiled and said: "Okay, after lighting the fire, we will sit on the bed and play bridge. It will be warm and fun!"

Zhu Lin said: "Sit on the bed and play cards? Are you sure you just want to play cards?"

Li Yunhai looked at her pretty and beautiful smile and couldn't help but feel relaxed.

I’ve been really lucky lately!

Good luck in love and career, all come one after another! (End of chapter)
