A hundred flavors of life

Chapter 1105: Get ready to call sister-in-law! (Please subscribe!)

PS: Happy New Year, brothers!

The taxi arrived at Shamao Lane, and the father and daughter got out. Hua Shier took over the luggage from the trunk from the driver, and then he heard someone behind him calling out:

"Qiao Simei, are you Qiao Simei? I am your elementary school classmate Qi Chenggang?"

When Hua Shier heard the name, he turned around and saw a handsome young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, wearing a military green uniform, greeting Qiao Simei with a look of surprise.

Qiao Simei was startled at first, then pointed at the other party with surprise:

"Qi Chenggang? You are Qi Chenggang. I remember we were classmates in elementary and junior high school. Have you changed in appearance? Have you become more handsome?"

Qi Chenggang smiled and nodded:

"You used to be short, but now you've grown up. You often went out to film, and when you came back to school, you were like a princess. Your classmates all surrounded you. It was not easy for you to remember me!"

Qiao Simei was a little embarrassed: "No, I studied hard, I only go out to film occasionally!"

Hua Twelve paid the fare, walked up with the luggage, and said calmly: "Four Beauty, who is this?"

Before Qiao Simei could speak, Qi Chenggang said enthusiastically:

"Uncle, hello, I'm Qiao Simei's elementary school classmate, my name is Qi Chenggang, I'm a fan of yours, your Huang Feihong is my favorite!"

Hua Twelve sneered in his heart. He thought, you like fighting and killing, right? This is a weird personality. On the surface, he smiled and stretched out his hand to shake his hand.

"You look very energetic, and you have a good physique. You are suitable to be a miner. By the way, do you have a job now? I have a few friends in Shanxi. Would you like me to introduce you to a job in the mines? You can earn a lot of money."

"Mining?"

Qi Chenggang was confused, and then waved his hands quickly:

"No, no, thank you for your kindness, uncle. I just joined the army this year and am serving in the frontier. I came back to take care of some things and will be leaving soon."

Hua Shier suddenly realized: "So that's how it is. Being a soldier is good and glorious."

Qi Chenggang couldn't help but smile foolishly when he was praised by the big star, then turned to Qiao Simei and said:

"Qiao Simei, can you please leave me your contact information? When I return to the army, we can write letters or call each other!"

Hua Shier was about to speak out to stop him, but Qiao Simei smiled and agreed:

"Okay!"

She took out a pen and paper and wrote down the address: "This is the address of my school. Forget about the phone. It's inconvenient to call someone. Just write to me when the time comes!"

Qi Chenggang happily took the address:

"Okay, I'll write to you when I get back to the army. I'll also send you photos of the frontier, the plateau, the snow-capped mountains, the yak herds, and the Yarlung Zangbo River."

Qiao Simei was delighted to hear this and kept saying yes.

Hua Shier's face became darker as he saw the two of them getting more and more intimate. "Yarlung Zangbo River, do you think you are Zheng Jun? Why are you playing with me back in Lhasa?"

He coughed lightly and said, "Si Mei, your mother and the others are waiting for you at home, let's go back first!"

Qiao Simei still listened to her father very much, and quickly said to Qi Chenggang:

"I just got back from summer vacation, so I won't chat with you anymore. Let's write to each other later!"

Qi Chenggang nodded reluctantly and wanted to chat a few more words, but noticed Hua Twelve's malicious eyes. He smiled awkwardly, said goodbye and left quickly.

Hua Shier grinned at Qi Chenggang's back. In the original plot, Qiao Simei also looked like this, so why didn't he seem so attentive? Now he is trying to get close to her. It's because he sees that our Simei has become a star and that my family is well-off, so he wants to take advantage of her. This guy really has no good intentions.

Seeing Qiao Simei still waving at Qi Chenggang who was leaving, Hua Twelve said unhappily:

"Everyone has left, what are you still looking at? I can't bear to just follow them."

After saying that, he picked up his luggage and left.

Qiao Simei quickly caught up with him from behind:

"Dad, what are you doing? I'm just happy to see my old classmates. What are you talking about? You just asked them to go mining. What are you thinking?"

"I saw that he has a good physique and a kind heart. Haven't you heard that getting rich through hard work is the most glorious? What's wrong with supporting yourself by mining with your own hands? It's nothing for a grown girl."

Qiao Simei was so angry that she almost cried. At this time, Aunt Wu from next door came out of her house:

"Oh, Simei is back. It's summer vacation now."

Hua Twelve scolded Qiao Simei: "Why don't you call someone? You have no manners at all!"

Qiao Simei cried out in grievance, "Aunt Wu."

Aunt Wu responded, and seeing that something was wrong between the father and daughter, she asked, "Did you have a fight with your dad?"

Qiao Simei's eyes were red just now, and now when she was asked by an outsider, tears fell instantly:

"My dad is a bully!"

After saying that, he ran home.

Hua Twelve was not accommodating and said to Aunt Wu:

"Just say a few words to her, what a jerk. Oh, by the way, Sister Wu, Simei brought back a lot of snacks from the capital, saying they are from Daoxiang Village. I'll send some to you later."

"Oh, I'm so sorry," Aunt Wu said with a smile that made her eyebrows and eyes invisible.

When I got home, I saw Qiao Simei holding He Qing's hand and crying and complaining. Her two younger brothers were holding her legs and trying to coax them to stop crying.

He Qing complained unhappily:

"Old Qiao, Old Qiao, I asked you to pick up your daughter, but you made her cry. What can I say to you?"

Hua Twelve felt that his "vegetable garden" was in danger. This time his wife did not give him face. She put down the luggage and said coldly:

"I'm mad at her? She's more like mad at me. You didn't see it just now. When she met a handsome boy, her face was full of smiles. Qiao Simei, Qiao Simei, how old are you? Can't you be more reserved?"

He Qing seemed to see something, and whispered a few words in Qiao Simei's ear with a smile. Qiao Simei burst into laughter and walked to Hua Twelve:

"Dad, you're overthinking it. How could I possibly like Qi Chenggang? We're just classmates and we haven't seen each other for a long time, so I feel a little close to him!"

Hua Twelve sneered: "But I think your eyes are full of tears."

Qiao Simei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She realized that her stepmother was right. Her father was jealous. She quickly opened her luggage and took out a group photo. She handed it to Hua Twelve to see:

"This is a group photo of my college class. Look at the boys in our class. Many of them are more handsome than Qi Chenggang. How could I possibly like him?"

Hua Twelve glanced at it, his eyes narrowed immediately, and he pointed at a guy with long hair covering his chin in the group photo:

"Hey, stay away from him!"

Qiao Simei took a look:

"You mean Li Apeng? He has a girlfriend. Dad, let me tell you that everyone in my class is from the western frontier. I am the only one who is not. Our teacher said that I am a special student in the special recruitment class. They are all very nice to me. Look at this Wang Xiaobing. He always treats me to dinner."

Hua Twelve feels that his blood pressure is a little high. Isn't he the one who was caught taking drugs and then banned? I heard that he has changed several wives and has an unclear relationship with Bayi. They are definitely not a good match.

He warned: "Stay away from him too."

Qiao Simei rolled her eyes and pointed at another boy with a smile: "This Chen Jianbing is also nice to me."

Hua Twelve couldn't bear to look at it. Isn't this the emperor in "Legend of Huan Huan": "This face is older than me"

"Well, this, this"

He Qing, who was watching the fire from the side, smiled and said, "Si Mei, stop teasing your dad!"

Hua Twelve finally reacted: "Qiao Simei, are you going to rebel?" Qiao Simei turned around and ran away, laughing and not forgetting to drag her two younger brothers with her:

"Zhuoran, Ping'an, sister is taking you out to play!"

The two little kids followed her and giggled.

After looking at the photos, Hua Shier understood what Qiao Simei meant, and he felt relieved. After all, although Qi Chenggang was a little handsome, he could not compare with Qiao Simei's star classmates in all aspects. He was not afraid of Qiao Simei falling into their trap in this life.

He immediately smiled: "This stinky girl!"

He Qing poured him a glass of water: "You, aren't you tired? Simei is already a grown-up girl. You can control her for a while, but you can also control her for a lifetime."

Hua Twelve took a sip of water and said:

"You don't know, this girl is just a love-brained person. She's the type that, when she falls in love with someone, she puts love first, loses herself, and can selectively turn a blind eye to the other person's shortcomings. Do you think I can just ignore it?"

He Qing laughed and said, "The Four Beauties are not as you say!"

Hua Shier didn't explain anymore, thinking that it was because you didn't read the original plot, otherwise you would be like me.

In the evening, Yicheng, Erqiang and Sanli returned home. They were all very happy to see Qiao Simei, and the Qiao family had a reunion dinner again.

At the dinner table, Qiao Simei told her brothers and sisters what happened today. Sanli said with a smile:

"Dad doesn't trust you, it's not your own fault, have you forgotten that when you were in elementary school, your parents were called in because of premature love?"

Qiao Simei immediately quit and went to scratch Qiao Sanli's itch:

"I asked you to speak, I asked you to speak. Wasn't I a child then? Now I'm in college."

Qiao Erqiang said to Hua Twelve: "Dad, Simei is right. She is in college now. It's okay for her to fall in love, right?"

Hua Twelve snorted coldly:

"She is still a minor when she goes to college. Is she 18 years old? Besides, how can I not worry? Your old father has played Erlang Shen before. I have Erlang Shen's eyes, which are more powerful than the Fiery Eyes and Golden Pupils. I can tell whether someone is a human or a ghost at a glance!"

"That Qi Chenggang looks sunny and cheerful, but I can tell at a glance that he has evil intentions and evil eyes. He is a playboy and definitely not a good match!"

When he said that, Erqiang, Sanli, and Simei all didn't believe him. The latter even said, "Dad, I've explained it to you clearly, why are you still saying that to others!"

Hua Twelve laughed: "You don't believe it, right? Back then, Ye Xiaolang knew that she was after your eldest brother. When I first saw her, I knew that she had bad intentions. If you don't believe me, ask Yicheng if that's what your father said at the time!"

Qiao Yicheng nodded: "Dad did say that at the time, and he also revealed the matter of Zhuoran and Ping'an, which led to Ye Xiaolang attacking our family in the newspaper later!"

The whole family looked at Hua Twelve, who looked up proudly and said, "Humph."

He Qing: "Eat, eat, ignore your dad, he has cervical spondylosis!"

Hua Twelve: "."

After dinner, Qiao Yicheng and Qiao Sanli went up to their father and asked him about medical matters, which were some difficult problems they encountered in work or study.

However, Hua Twelve could easily solve all the problems that troubled them, whether they were problems in Western medicine surgery or methods of Chinese medicine dialectical treatment. This made the children admire their old father even more.

He Qing watched with her beautiful eyes, this was the man she chose. It seemed that no problem could ever stump him. Well, she had a good eye.

After talking about business, Hua Twelve became concerned about his eldest son's relationship problems: "Yicheng, you've lived on Jiangsu Road for so long, have you never met a beautiful neighbor of similar age?"

Qiao Yicheng was a little embarrassed: "Dad, why are you saying this? It's like I'm a SL, staring at the neighbors all day long."

Hua Twelve saw that he hadn't met Xiang Nanfang yet, and said, "I hate him for not fighting for it."

"You, your father has created such great conditions for you."

Halfway through his speech, he murmured:

"Looks like I, your old father, have to take action myself!"

"So, I want to treat reporter Xiao Song who did an exclusive interview with me last time to a meal to thank him. You can come with me this weekend. I can tell at first glance that he has a positive outlook and a clear mind. He's a friend worth making friends with. You're about the same age as him, so you should keep in touch with him in the future!"

Qiao Yicheng did not refuse. He now believed more and more in his father's judgment of people.

In the blink of an eye, it was the weekend. Hua Shier called Song Qingyuan in advance and said that he would treat him to a meal at the weekend to thank him for helping to clarify the matter in the last interview.

Song Qingyuan was flattered and said no, adding that this was what they were supposed to do as journalists and he didn't dare to even say thank you.

Hua Twelve did not give him a chance to refuse, but just smiled and said, "See you at Yonghe Garden at 12 noon this weekend!"

Yonghe Garden is located on Gongyuan Street. Its origins can be traced back to the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. Boss Mei from the opera world and Master Hou from the crosstalk world would come here to taste the food when they came to Jinling.

At the weekend, Hua Shier brought Qiao Yicheng to Yonghe Garden to meet Song Qingyuan who had arrived earlier.

Hua Shier introduced the two people. When Song Qingyuan interviewed him before, he had investigated the family background of the Qiao family. Naturally, he knew Qiao Yicheng. He shook hands with Qiao Yicheng with a smile on his face:

"I have wanted to meet you for a long time. You have been practicing medicine for less than a year and have performed hundreds of surgeries, big and small, without any failures. You are the best in the country in acupuncture and anesthesia. You are the little miracle doctor of Gulou Hospital."

Qiao Yicheng quickly said modestly: "It's all spread by others. You're too polite. Our family should thank you for what happened last time!"

Hua Twelve waved his hand: "Don't be polite, please sit down quickly. Little miracle doctor, my eldest son just doesn't have a good brain. Last time, he almost let Ye Xiaolang cheat him!"

Qiao Yicheng was so confused that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

When the food and wine arrived, the three of them ate and chatted. Perhaps it was because Song Qingyuan and Qiao Yicheng were supposed to be good friends, the two of them got along very well, and before they even finished their meal, they already felt that they had met too late.

The old man Hua Twelve took the opportunity to say, "Xiao Song, look at our Yicheng family's conditions, don't you think they are good?"

Song Qingyuan nodded: "That's quite good. Your family is a family of literature and art, martial arts, and Yicheng himself is a famous surgeon. These conditions are better than 99% of your peers!"

Qiao Yicheng felt embarrassed by the praise and kept waving his hands.

Hua Twelve said half-jokingly:

"My eldest son is good in every way except that he is not very good at relationships. He used to focus on his studies and never had a romantic relationship. Otherwise, he would not have been almost deceived by Ye Xiaolang. Xiao Song, if you have a suitable person of the same age, you might as well introduce him to someone. If it works out, uncle will give you a big red envelope!"

Song Qingyuan clapped his hands and said, "That's really a coincidence. I have a lifelong friend who is a perfect match for Yicheng. She is also focused on her work and has never had a boyfriend. Her family is also worried. How about I help talk to her?"

Hua Shier immediately perked up. He guessed that the person Song Qingyuan was talking about was most likely Xiang Nanfang.

"I have to tell you. I'll leave this matter to you, uncle."

The meal was a great success, Qiao Yicheng and Song Qingyuan became friends, and he agreed to do a TV interview with the latter.

A week later, Song Qingyuan called Hua Shier and told him that the matter was settled and the woman agreed to meet Qiao Yicheng.

Hua Shier asked the woman's name, and Song Qingyuan laughed:

"My sister's name is Xiang Nanfang. I can't tell you about her family background yet. We'll talk about it after she becomes successful. But don't worry, uncle. They are all of good origin and there is no doubt about it."

When the day came that Qiao Yicheng and Xiang Nanfang met, the whole family was waiting at the old house for good news from Qiao Yicheng, well, mainly good news.

In the evening, Qiao Yicheng came back with a cheerful face. Hua Shier waved his hand:

"Okay, looking at the boy's coquettish face, I know the talk is going well. You guys are ready to call me sister-in-law!"

This one sentence made Qiao Yichen's face turn red with embarrassment.

At the end of summer vacation, Qiao Simei returned to Beijing. Hua Shier made several special phone calls to her. The former confessed that Qi Chenggang really wrote a letter to her school, and the content was quite ambiguous, but she asked her to throw them all away.

Hua Shier praised Qiao Simei, and after hanging up the phone, he muttered to himself:

"Qi Chenggang really has a connection with miners. He always tries to get closer to them!"

Thanks to: 08a, Little Tiger in the Demon World for the reward, and thanks to the brothers who voted for monthly votes and recommendation votes, thank you very much.
