Spring Breeze Twenty Years

Chapter 643 You call that drinking?

Xiao Wei got drunk.

Actually, he only drank two bottles of beer at most, but his alcohol tolerance is what it is. He doesn't need to find anyone else; Xiao Hong and Geng Hui can both drink him under the table.

Xia Maosheng drove his SUV downstairs and carried Xiao Wei upstairs.

Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang were watching TV and chatting when they quickly got up to help Xiaowei into a reclining chair. Aunt Wang asked, "What's wrong? Why did you suddenly start drinking? How much did you drink?"

Xiao Hong put the things she was carrying on the table and said, "He treated the police station to dinner, and after drinking two bottles of beer, this happened."

Uncle Wang laughed and said, "If you can't drink well, why would you want to be a drunkard? Xiao Hui, come and sit down."

Xia Maosheng said, "No need to sit, we're going back to sleep too." Uncle Wang nodded, and Xia Maosheng and Geng Hui went back to their room hand in hand. Aunt Wang went to the kitchen to make hangover soup for Xiao Wei. Uncle Wang looked at the things on the table and asked, "What's this? Clothes?"

Xiao Hong helped Xiao Wei take off his coat and said, "His... he went to an awards ceremony this afternoon. I guess that's what he got. I didn't see it."

Uncle Wang stood up and rummaged through the table, saying, "I knew it looked like clothes. A police uniform? Does this mean we'll really be police officers from now on?"

Aunt Wang poked her head out from the kitchen: "What?"

Uncle Wang took everything out of the bag and examined it one by one, saying, "No, it's an honorary police officer. You scared me. This isn't a real police officer, it's just an honorary title." Aunt Wang breathed a sigh of relief and went back to making the hangover soup.

Xiao Hong stripped Xiao Wei of his police uniform and threw it into the basin, then came over and started rummaging through it with Uncle Wang.

10,000 yuan in cash, a certificate of outstanding citizen representative, a collective second-class merit certificate, a second-class merit medal, a commendation order from the Public Security Bureau, a certificate of membership in the Provincial Political Consultative Conference, and a nomination card from the Provincial People's Congress.

Uncle Wang picked up the medal and looked at it, then said with a smile, "Your Uncle Li has been a policeman for most of his life, and he only got one collective third-class merit, which was issued by the municipal bureau. Xiao Wei has received a second-class merit in the past few months, which was issued by the ministry. Take it to Old Li to see tomorrow."

Xiao Hong handed 10,000 yuan to Aunt Wang, who had come to watch the commotion, and said, "I thought it would be a special-class merit or a first-class merit, but it was only a second-class merit."

Uncle Wang said, "Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. Do you think military merit is a game? It's extremely strict. There are so many major cases nationwide. How many second-class merits are there? Let alone second-class merits, how many third-class merits are there? They're usually awarded by the provincial or municipal governments, and their prestige is different. Officer Lu and his colleagues should have another chance to be evaluated for titles at the end of the year. Xiao Wei has already achieved this much. It's pretty good."

Aunt Wang said, "We don't need any special achievements or merits, we just want to be safe and sound."

Xiao Hong reached into Aunt Wang's hand to take the money: "Don't take it back."

Aunt Wang patted Xiao Hong's hand with her other hand: "You think you can take the money back once it's in my hands? Dream on." The three of them laughed. Xiao Hong and Aunt Wang gave Xiao Wei most of a bowl of hangover soup, and after sitting and talking for a while, Xiao Wei sobered up and rubbed his temples, saying, "I'll never drink again, it's too uncomfortable."

Uncle Wang laughed heartily: "You call that drinking?"

Xiao Hong asked, "What does it feel like to be drunk?"

Xiao Wei said, "I know in my mind that my hands and feet won't obey my commands, I'm sleepy, and I have no energy."

Xiao Hong frowned and said, "Sleepy? Lazy? Then where do those drunkards get their energy?"

Uncle Wang said, "There aren't many people who can act crazy when drunk. They just deliberately cause trouble because they're drunk, but they know exactly what's going on."

Xiao Wei stood up to wash his face and said, "I'm going to Longcheng tomorrow, Xiao Hong, are you coming?"

Xiao Hong asked, "When are you coming back?"

Xiao Wei said, "We still have to go to Andong, it will take three or four days, at the earliest it will take three or four days."

Xiao Hong said, "Then I'll go, but I'll have to keep an eye on you."

Uncle Wang asked, "Is the shop over there ready?"

Xiao Wei brushed his teeth, nodded, and said, "Okay, I'll go take a look and bring Master Zhai over."

Xiao Hong patted her dad and said, "Hey, don't talk to him while he's brushing his teeth."

……

Early the next morning.

After having breakfast, Xiaowei greeted Chen Hui, filled up the car with gas at the power company, and set off for Longcheng with Xiaohong.

At 2 PM, the Mercedes drove into my yard; now it truly is my own.

Xiaowei's mother was carrying Xiaohu around in the yard, while Mu Lijuan and a group of aunties and older women sat by the wall picking vegetables. With more students joining, the cooking team had also grown. Xiaobing and a few classmates were playing in another corner of the yard, squatting there doing something, occasionally letting out joyful shouts.

Xiaowei's mother stood there watching an unfamiliar car drive in, until Xiaohong got out of the car. Then she greeted her with a look of surprise and delight: "Xiaohong, you're back from your trip?"

Xiao Wei got out of the car and asked, "Mom, where's Dad?"

Xiaowei's mother, holding Xiaohu in one hand and Xiaohong in the other, said, "They're in the backyard, with Xiaoshi." The backyard is the south side of the old building. Now the entire yard is completely separated from the food factory area, and vehicles and people leave through the south gate.

Xiao Hong reached out to hug Xiao Hu, but Xiao Hu turned his head and hugged Xiao Wei's mother's neck to refuse. Xiao Hong said, "Why don't any of the children like me? Xiao Xiao Hui won't let me hug him, and this one won't let me hug him either."

Xiaowei's mom asked, "Xiao Hui? Xiao Hui gave birth?"

Xiao Wei said, "It's a baby boy, a big, healthy boy, weighing eight and a half pounds. It's been over a week since he was born."

Xiaowei's mother couldn't help but glance at Xiaohong's belly. Xiaohong's face turned a little red, and she touched her belly and said, "Auntie, I haven't graduated yet. When I graduate, I'll give you a big grandson to play with. Oh, don't rush me."

Xiaowei's mom laughed and patted Xiaohong on the forehead, asking, "Have you two eaten yet?"

Xiaowei's dad strode over: "Xiaowei, you changed your car? This car is powerful, what brand is it?" Men's focus is never on the same line as women's.

Xiao Wei took out a cigarette and handed it to his dad, saying, "A Mercedes, an SUV. If you like it, I'll get you one too."

Xiao Wei's dad took the cigarette, shook his head, and said, "I can't drive. This car must be pretty expensive, right?"

Xiao Wei said, "I bought a smuggled car for over a million yuan. If it were imported, it would be much more expensive, costing three or four million."

Xiaowei's dad asked, "Did Xiaohui and Xiaoxia buy them?"

Xiao Wei nodded and said, "I bought them all. This time I bought six cars, which cost almost five million. How many years will that last?"

Xiaowei's mother said, "My goodness, aren't you guys just being ridiculous? You used to drive that car perfectly fine, but now that you have money, you start recklessly ruining it."

Xiao Wei's father glanced at his wife and said, "What do you know? We're running a company now; we need to maintain a good image, don't we?"

Xie Xiaolong walked over: "Xiaowei."

Xiao Wei turned around and greeted him with a smile, "Brother Long, you didn't go out today?"

Xie Xiaolong circled the Mercedes once and asked, "I'm gradually handing everything over to Sister Shang. Has anything started over there? When can I go over?"

Xiao Wei said, "Around October, mid-October, the foundation will be finished, and Engineer Wang said the main structure will be ready soon."
