After Li Zhiquan finished speaking, he took the menu and gave it to the waiter who was waiting at the door. He also asked him to bring over a dozen of frozen German imported black beer.
”Xiao Lei, you should have heard about what happened to uncle back then, right?”
Li Zhiquan gave Du Lei a cigarette, and said with a little disappointment.
Their family seem to be addicted to smoking and drinking, and they don't often hear people say that smoking is harmful to health.
He didn't know why he did all these things.
As if it was a gene passed down from this huge family, when Du Lei's mother advised him not to smoke in the Old Du, the Old Du told his mother that Du Lei's grandfather ate a bowl of rice, drank a bowl of wine, and smoked a big cigarette before he died peacefully. His grandfather had been smoking since young, and drank strong alcohol.
However, he had lived to the age of 108 years old and his body was extremely tough. On the day before he left, he was in the mahjong hall rubbing mahjong and even had a quarrel with him.
The truth was that smoking and drinking could not harm the children of Old Du's family at all. The Old Master had a big cigarette in his mouth right before he died.
What did this mean?
This smoke was an indispensable part of the Old Du's family's life.
It was said that smoking could inhibit growth, but when Du Lei was in primary school, he would often steal Old Du's cigarettes and go to school to buy one.
Du Wei that brat also smoked, but he was not much shorter than Du Lei.
Hmm, there is always something in this world that science cannot explain.
As for the Old Du's family and the ”cigarettes”
He probably wouldn't be able to keep in touch for a whole day and night.
Du Lei took the cigarette, placed it in his mouth, and slowly smoked. He then said: ”I have also heard of that matter.
”My dad felt that you were too useless because of this. For a woman, you actually became like this, and even almost ran off to use drugs. That's why he looked down on you from the bottom of his heart.”
Frowning, Du Lei said very straightforwardly: ”But you should know about this yourself. My dad has always been a small-minded person, and would always beat around the bush when he speaks. He hopes for you, uncle, to understand this, right?”
”Of course I know. To be honest, if my brother-in-law had scolded me and pulled me, I would have probably been unable to bear the burden and would have run off to take drugs or jump off a building. Now, he has asked me to help you, firstly because he hopes that I can give him a warning and secondly, because he hopes that I can take care of you.
Li Zhiquan said plainly.
He said, ”come up with some ideas.”
Naturally, this was not bragging, but he did possess this ability. Back then, he was only a little over twenty years old, yet he had already made a name for himself and met with many people's jealousy. When he was in a difficult situation, he also added insult to injury.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have ended up like this.
He looked at his nephew, smiled and said, ”When you work outside, you have to be bold and do it. If you earn money, there will always be people who will be jealous and try to mess you up.”
”I understand.”
Du Lei nodded his head, just then, the imported black beer that Li Zhiquan had called for was brought over, and the waiter had also brought four glasses, and had prepared a bottle opener.
Suddenly, there was a hubbub in the corridor outside.
The servant immediately went out to take a look, then greeted Du Lei and left.
