Tiger Police

Chapter 621
Hu Pingtao noticed for a moment that the daughter-in-law seems to be cooking all vegetarian dishes.

He has always felt very strange about this——because Su Xiaolin is a typical carnivore, the kind who enjoys every meal without meat.But why is it always vegetarian every time I cook?
Trying to save money?It shouldn't be!Hu Pingtao leaves one-third of his monthly salary as daily expenses, and most of it is handed over to buy cigarettes.Su Xiaolin's monthly income is not low, and there is no such unit welfare in the business hall. The monthly income of the two of them is added together, and there are more than 3 to nearly 4 yuan.The old people on both sides love the children, and subsidize them from time to time, especially the twins. From the day they were born, milk powder, clothes and so on were bought by the old people on both sides, and Su Xiaolin basically never spent any money.

By the way, the chicken soup stewed by Su Xiaolin is not bad.But later, I don’t know who she learned to make medicinal food from. Putting all kinds of messy medicinal materials in, the soup had a strange smell, and Hu Pingtao and the children didn’t like it.

Faced with Hu Pingtao's doubts, Su Xiaolin has always held a tough attitude of "justice without repentance".Later, the two twins couldn't take it anymore, and they shouted "Mom, the food you cook is really terrible", which made her change her mind, and reluctantly found her mother, Chen Jun, and asked her to help and give advice on this. .

At almost three o'clock on Saturday afternoon, Chen Jun came.She bought a lot of vegetables and brought them in in big and small bags.

Seeing this, Hu Pingtao quickly stood up from the sofa to help: "Mom, why did you buy so many vegetables? There are only a few of us in the house, and we can't finish it! If you buy too much, you can't put it in the refrigerator, or else Will you take some back later?"

Su Xiaolin also chimed in: "Mom, why do you get so many vegetables! You use my place as a warehouse, don't you?"

Chen Jun walked towards the kitchen with a bag, and said to Hu Pingtao with a smile: "You seldom come back from work, and you usually eat at work. I guess the food in the cafeteria is just like that. It's rare that you are resting at home today. Linlin called me yesterday and asked me to come over and teach her how to cook today. Just in time, I bought some more, and you can eat it slowly when it's ready."

"This is a capon, half stewed in soup and half braised in yellow. I cut off the chicken breast separately and put it in the refrigerator to freeze. I will come over and make fried diced chicken for you to eat some other day."

"Look at this pork, what a good third-line pork with skin! I made an agreement with the butcher at the vegetable market the day before, asking him to keep it for me. I will make braised pork for you later."

"Cold salad with lettuce, shredded radish and deep-fried balls, stir-fried leeks with tofu skin, that's basically it."

Hu Pingtao couldn't help drooling when he heard it—it's no secret that the mother-in-law's cooking skills are absolutely top-notch, comparable to the chefs in restaurants outside.Just say braised pork!Nowadays, many household methods use soy sauce for coloring, but Chen Jun is very persistent. Every time, he melts white sugar in a hot pan and stir-fries to caramelize the color, so that the color of the stewed meat can penetrate, and the skin is bright. Just look at it and feel tempting.

Thinking of this, he gently stretched out his hand and pushed Su Xiaolin behind her back: "It's rare that Mom bought so many vegetables today, so you follow suit."

Su Xiaolin gave him an annoyed look: "I knew you would say that. You glutton...what, am I usually starving you, or telling you to eat less?"

Hu Pingtao defended very unhappy; "You usually cook vegetarian dishes, so you are raising me as a monk?"

With a fierce look, Su Xiaolin leaned close to Hu Pingtao's ear, threatening in a low voice: "If you become a monk, you will be allowed to sleep in my wife's bed? I will serve you comfortably every day? You are so bold, don't you look at me?" My mother started talking nonsense? Believe it or not, when my mother leaves at night, I will punish you with a whip?"

Hu Pingtao took advantage of the situation to put his arms around her waist, and while Chen Jun wasn't paying attention, he kissed Su Xiaolin hard on the face, and said viciously, "I want to eat meat."

Su Xiaolin was ashamed and angry, and hurriedly broke free.

Fortunately, the twins were not there, so they didn't see this scene——Hu Zhijun and Hu Mushuang signed up for extracurricular interest classes on weekends, and Li Jinglan took them to class.

Just as Chen Jun put her things away, she turned around and saw Su Xiaolin closing the door, and she shouted, "Why did you close the door? Open it quickly! There are still people outside!"

Su Xiaolin was suddenly confused: "Mom, who is outside?"

"Yin Xia, you are Aunt Yin." Chen Jun explained: "You know her. She is the one who works in the bank. When you were young, she often came to the house and brought you a big bag of snacks every time. Why did you forget?"

"Oh! It's her!" Su Xiaolin raised her hand and patted her forehead lightly, suddenly realizing: "It's been a long time since I saw her. Mom, didn't you say that Aunt Yin got married and went out of town? Why did she come back again?"

Chen Jun reached out and tapped her daughter's forehead, and complained: "When you got married, everyone came and gave you a gift of 500 yuan. How did you grow your brain, and now you forget everything?"

Su Xiaolin racked her brains and tried every means to justify: "It is said that I was pregnant for three years and I gave birth to two in one go. I gave my children all the cleverness and energy, and it is normal for memory to decline!"

Chen Jun didn't listen to her, and kept urging: "Hurry up and open the door! Yin Xia came with me, she went to park the car, and I brought the food up first. If you close the door, she will be in trouble if she can't find it later." .”

Just as he was talking, there was a knock on the door outside.

Su Xiaolin quickly trotted over to open the door, and it turned out to be her mother's friend Yin Xia standing outside.

Chen Jun welcomed them in, and Hu Pingtao walked quickly into the living room, turned on the electric water heater, boiled water and poured tea.

Su Xiaolin had a very good impression of Yin Xia, she kept pulling her and refused to let her go until she sat down.

"Aunt Yin, I haven't seen you for many years, why don't you come to play at home!"

Yin Xia was younger than Chen Jun, and she explained with a smile: "I live far away, in the north city area, so it's inconvenient to go back and forth. But your mother and I are usually in touch. No, I'm here today!"

Hu Pingtao laughed beside him and said, "No wonder Mom bought so many vegetables today, so there are customers."

Chen Jun nodded with a smile: "Ah Xia is my old friend. Apart from coming over to get together today, she also wants to ask you for help."

Hu Pingtao was greatly surprised, and subconsciously raised his finger to his nose: "Ask me for help?"

"Yes." Chen Jun said: "Let Axia tell you about the specific situation!"

Yin Xia is in her 50s, well maintained and thin.Although the weather was quite cold, she didn't look bloated in her cotton coat and trousers.Hu Pingtao looked at Yin Xia secretly, and found that Yin Xia's clothes and shoes were fashionable and high-end. Reminiscent of what Chen Jun said before, "Yin Xia is going to park the car, she works in a bank", it can be seen that Yin Xia Xia is quite wealthy.

Su Xiaolin is still very considerate of her husband. She knows that Hu Pingtao is usually busy with work. Even if she is a friend of her mother, one thing more is worse than one thing less. So she opened her mouth and asked, "Aunt Yin, what trouble do you have? I have many friends here. If you find it suitable, I will introduce it to you."

"This..." Yin Xia kept a polite smile on her face. She sat on the sofa, rubbing her hands together, with an embarrassed expression, "...it's my son's business."

"Your son?" Su Xiaolin thought about it, and asked tentatively, "Is that the one I saw when I was young?"

She was quite impressed by this.Yin Xia is younger than Chen Jun. Although she is old now, she was very beautiful back then and had many suitors.Su Xiaolin vaguely remembered that she once brought a little boy to the house, saying that it was her son, two years younger than herself.

"Yes, you've seen it." Yin Xia belongs to the kind of people who don't have any plans, because they are very familiar with each other, she doesn't have too many scruples when speaking: "I used to joke with your mother, saying that we should marry each other Baby dear. Later, I was transferred at work and went to other places... Hey, it's all about Chen Zhima rotten millet, so I won't mention it."

As she said that, she turned to Hu Pingtao and said with a smile, "I came when you got married last time. Linlin found a good one. Seeing that you are living a good life now, I am really happy and envious."

Hu Pingtao responded politely: "Thank you, Aunt Yin."

Yin Xia's mood suddenly became depressed: "My son will die...he is not married yet."

Seeing her fall into silence and then being cold, Chen Jun quickly explained from the side: "Xiaohu, Axia came here today because of her son's affairs. You have to help her."

Su Xiaolin was more anxious than Hu Pingtao, and kept urging: "Aunt Yin, what's going on, you tell me!"

Yin Xia looked down at the ground under her feet, and said in a low voice, "My son... Lele, I named him this name in the hope that he would be happy. I didn't expect him to hate strangers since he was a child, and he has a dull temper. Usually Hiding in the room alone and reading a book, Lao Cao and I thought he was very well-behaved at that time, but later found out that his personality is too quiet, which is really not a good thing..."

Yin Xia's husband is Cao Jun, who works in Sinopec.One of the couple is in the bank, and the other is in the energy port. Both of them are making good profits and have a solid family background.

After marriage, Yin Xia gave birth to a boy named Cao Xiaole.

All parents want their children to be obedient, and Cao Xiaole really relieved them in this respect.He usually speaks very little, and he has been liked by the teacher since he was in kindergarten.Simply put, it is an "obedient child".Do what the teacher asks, never out of line, and never have conflicts with children.

Went to elementary school, had excellent academic performance, listened attentively in class, and was a three-good student every year.The teacher likes it very much and regards it as a typical example of outstanding students in the class.At the parent-teacher meeting at the end of each semester, Cao Xiaole would always be singled out and praised fiercely in front of all the parents, so that "everyone can see how Cao Xiaole's parents educate their children."

At that time, Yin Xia felt that her life was full of glory.She is full of hope for children.As the teacher often told her: If the child continues to develop like this, it will not be a problem at all to enter Huaqing and Peking University in the future.

The glory of elementary school has continued.

In junior high school, Cao Xiaole immersed himself in his studies, and he never let his parents worry about this aspect.His academic performance is top-notch, and he is the class monitor just like in elementary school, and he also serves as a study committee member.

In high school, Cao Xiaole's grades are still very good, and the scores in each test are so high that it makes people speechless.

But Yin Xia gradually felt that the words between her son and herself were getting less and less.

The teacher also reflected: This child is indeed reassuring in his studies, but his personality is too dull.Moreover, Cao Xiaole never participated in group activities at school. He was not interested in spring outings and the like. The school sports meeting refused to sign up for any events, and asked Yin Xia to call the teacher, saying that she was reviewing at home during those few days.

He doesn't seem to have many friends.

Cao Xiaole didn't inherit his father's tall body gene, and his mother's beauty didn't seem to have much influence on him.He is in the third year of high school. He is 1.7 meters tall and his skin is dark. He didn't like haircuts since he was a child.The boys in the class basically go to the hairdresser once a month, but he doesn't necessarily go once every two months.He has long hair, and although he takes a bath every day, he is unwilling to change his clothes... Generally speaking, it gives people a silent, old, and long-term feeling.

Cao Xiaole was admitted to the university, [-] in the province.When they got the notice, Yin Xia and his wife specially set up wine to celebrate, and everyone congratulated them.

Cao Jun is very satisfied with his son.He told Yin Xia that he had established a relationship with his son in advance, and that when Cao Xiaole graduated, he would report to the subordinate oil company.Although it is necessary to take an exam, that kind of exam is not a problem for Cao Xiaole at all.At that time, there will be a cutscene, an interview, and then enter the unit to work.

Cao Xiaole is very obedient and obedient.According to his father, he signed up for the oil company's public recruitment examination.

Although Cao Jun has a rank and a position in the unit, he is not the only one who has the final say on the matter of recruiting for external examinations.It is impossible for him to engage in radish recruitment, but everyone is acquaintances, so it is okay to take care of him during the interview.

What's more, Cao Xiaole passed the written test very well.With a perfect score of 99, he passed the test with 1, standing firmly in the No.[-] position.

By the way: Cao Jun didn't help Cao Xiaole even a little bit in the written test, and he couldn't help.

Because from the formulation of the questions to the review, the higher authorities specially sent people to take charge.No one dares to make mistakes in this kind of thing.If someone dares to favor others for personal gain, at least he will be dismissed from his post, and at worst he will be handed over to the public security organ for justice.

Cao Jun felt that his son had no problem in this regard.It's just a unit recruitment exam, it's no big deal.From childhood to adulthood, my son has taken hundreds of exams, and it can be said that he has experienced many battles and easily won them.

The couple never dreamed that the problem came from the interview.

The chief interviewer was sent from the head office.He has a close relationship with Cao Jun. It was Cao Jun who single-handedly selected him back then, coupled with his own outstanding ability, this is how he got to where he is today.So Cao Jun asked him to have dinner in advance, said hello, and said, "I'll leave my son's affairs to me."

On the night after the interview, the man invited Cao Jun out for a private discussion.
