Chapter 1340 (1/2)
Zhou Haidong.
Zhou Haidong is not young. He was 36 when he was with Li Dong, and he was 40 years old this year.
When he was middle-aged, and he was in a high position, there were too many things. Zhou Haidong didn't have much time to exercise in the past two years, and he was a little bit fat.
He got married late and worked as a soldier for eight years. After leaving the army for several years, he saved enough money to get married.
Even so, he was not very happy. If he had not been short of money, he would not have taken refuge in Li Dong and was used as a cruel character.
But in recent years, the Zhou family began to live better.
Zhou Haidong, in particular, became the Minister of supervision. He could buy a villa only by salary and bonus in one year.
Of course, Zhou Haidong did not buy a villa, but bought a set of duplex buildings, not too eye-catching.
On the first day of the lunar new year, there are many Zhou family members.
Zhou Haidong's parents and his father-in-law and his mother-in-law both came here for the new year.
On the first day of junior high school, no one went out. The whole family got together, watching TV and playing cards. The atmosphere was good.
Zhou Haidong's wife is much younger than him and is also from the countryside.
Although Zhou Haidong has developed in recent years, his wife still retains the simplicity of rural people, without the publicity of upstarts. She is very low-key and simple.
Zhou Haidong is away from work, and she is focused on taking care of her children at home.
The couple have only one daughter. They are not old enough to be 8 years old after the Chinese New Year.
There were many people in the family, and Zhou's wife didn't take part in the card game. Instead, she served tea and water for everyone and took care of several children.
Seeing her husband sitting on the side watching TV, Zhou's wife could not help asking, ”Haidong, don't you go to pay New Year's greetings to Mr. Li?”
Zhou Haidong said with a smile, ”I don't want to go today. I have to go home and have a rest. Let's go tomorrow.”
”Well, don't forget to bring those things I bought tomorrow. Empty hands are not suitable.”
”Forget it, Li is always in need of these things. What's more, every time I bring something, it's not appropriate to take it back in double.”
When the couple talked about Li Dong, the others couldn't help pricking up their ears.
For Zhou Haidong to work for Li Dong, the whole family is proud.
In particular, Zhou Haidong also served as a bodyguard for Li Dong, which is a topic of interest to many people.
His brother-in-law was young and had just entered high school. When he saw his brother-in-law talking to his sister, he could not help saying, ”brother-in-law, have you ever been a bodyguard for Li Dong? Isn't it very dangerous to be a bodyguard? Have you ever encountered anything dangerous? Tell us about it... ”
Zhou's wife can't help reprimanding: ”children ask what blindly, and, don't call names, polite point.”
Her brother turned his mouth and said, ”people are not here. Besides, we all call him that, or we call him brother gun...”
”The child
People can't help laughing, Zhou Haidong also laughingly said: ”don't talk nonsense, others call it, don't call it in the future, just call Dong Ge or anything else.
Mr. Li hates this nickname most. Who says he is in a hurry. ”
Why? I think it's very good... ”
They were talking when the doorbell rang.
Zhou's wife said curiously, ”who's here today? Is it not your subordinates? ”
”Go to open the door and have a look. Those who bring things are not allowed to come in. It's always like this every time. It's not quiet for the Chinese New Year.”
Zhou Haidong shook his head slightly. Since he became the Minister of supervision, more and more people came to see him.
Far away, the Minister of supervision is not only a senior executive, but also a member of the board of directors, one of the top several people.
Today, there are not many board members far away, and everyone is extremely important.
In addition, it is the regulatory department, which makes people pay more attention to it.
There are many door-to-door gifts, relationships and courtship, almost every month.
Zhou's wife went to the door and opened the door directly.
As soon as the door opened, Zhou's wife was stunned and surprised.
……
Outside the door.
Li Dong said with a smile, ”sister-in-law, don't you know me?”
”Li Mr. Li, you Why are you here... ”
Zhou's wife was so nervous that she turned her head and called out: ”Haidong, general manager Li is here, come quickly...”
As soon as Zhou Haidong, who was sitting, heard this, he immediately jumped up and hurried to the door.
But the other people's voice in the room stopped for a moment, and they all quickly got up and looked at the door.
Outside, Li Dong saw Zhou Haidong's wife forgot to let himself in. He couldn't help laughing and said, ”sister-in-law, I'm not an outsider. Don't shout, can you let me in first?”
As soon as the words came out, Zhou's wife suddenly turned red. She was at a loss and said, ”I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Mr. Li, please come in quickly. I'll...”
”You're kidding. Don't be nervous, sister-in-law.”
Li Dong said, ready to change shoes into the door, this time Zhou Haidong also arrived, see the situation in a hurry way: ”Mr. Li, do not need to change shoes, how did you come, quickly go in and sit down.
Xiao Hui, make tea for Mr. Li. I have good tea upstairs... ””Good, good, I'll get it right away...”
Zhou's wife answered and ran upstairs in a hurry.
Li Dong changed his shoes and came into the door with a gift.
After putting down the gift, Li Dong took a look at the people in the room and said with a smile: ”I'm sorry. I'm sorry to have a sudden visit.
It's not new year. Let's see Lao Zhou.
You don't have to worry about me. You play your game. I'll talk to Lao Zhou and leave later. ”
”Mr. Li, you come to see me. This is not a slap in the face.
I knew that I should have paid you a new year's visit today. I thought there must be a lot of people there today, so I wanted to wait and go tomorrow... ”
Zhou Haidong explained that Li Dong waved his hand and said with a smile: ”it's OK. It's all the same.
We've known each other for so many years. It's the same who comes to the house.
Anyway, I haven't been here since you moved here. ”
After talking, Li Dongchao and Zhou Haidong's daughter waved and said with a smile, ”Guo Guo, don't you know your uncle Li?”
Zhou Haidong's daughter was a little shy, but she came over and whispered, ”Uncle Li is good.”
”I haven't seen you for a while, but I've gone a long way.
I forgot to bring you a present when I came. This is for you. Next time, my uncle will bring you something interesting. ”
Li Dong took off a string of sandalwood beads on his hand and put them on the little girl's hand.
Zhou Haidong looked at it and said in a hurry: ”no, Mr. Li, this is what Mr. Shen gave you. How can I give it to the child? Take it back quickly...”
”It's OK. Shen Xi likes to give these things. As a big man, I wear this burden.
Just as it happened, the fruit was given to me. Shen Qian of the province said back to me. ”
Li Dong laughed and said hello to others. Finally, he said with a smile, ”Lao Zhou, I haven't been to your side either. Let's go upstairs and have a talk by the way.”
”Well, I'll show you up.”
”Well, don't worry about us. I suddenly became quiet and uncomfortable.
Lao Zhou and I are very close friends. My family are polite to me
Li Dong, with a smile on his face, calmed for a while, then went upstairs with Lao Zhou.
When he left, the crowd took a breath.
Zhou Haidong's sister couldn't help but pull her niece and whispered, ”fruit, do you know him?”
The little girl quickly nodded and whispered, ”I've been to our house before. It's my father's boss. OK, I brought a lot of delicious food.
It's to call his brother. He won't let me call uncle. ”
”I didn't expect that elder brother was really valued. On the first day of new year's day, Li Dong came to see him in person. It's so powerful!”
Zhou Haidong's sister sighed with emotion. Although she knew that elder brother was a high-level leader in the distant group, how many people could Li Dong come to visit on the first day of new year's day?
From this point of view, we can know how much Li Dong attaches importance to his elder brother.
Everyone was happy, and no one continued to play cards. They all got together and chatted in a low voice, for fear that the loud voice would disturb Li Dong above.
……
Upstairs.
Taking the tea cup from Zhou's wife, Li Dong said with a smile, ”sister-in-law, don't be busy. I'll leave after chatting with Lao Zhou for a while. I'm sorry that you are so polite.”
”No, there is nothing good at home. I should have bought some good tea when I knew you were coming.”
”You're welcome, sister-in-law. I'll talk to Lao Zhou...”
Zhou Haidong heard the speech and said, ”Xiao Hui, you go down to see your parents first. I'll talk to Mr. Li for a while.”
Zhou's wife nodded in a hurry, and then she went downstairs in a hurry.
Li Dong waited for her to leave, and then he said with a light smile: ”Lao Zhou, how many years have we known each other?”
Zhou Haidong said in a hurry: ”four years ago, in May of 2005, I came to the distance.
At that time, I, Lao Tan, Lao Zheng, and Red soldiers came together.
It was Mr. Sun who came to us and said that he would help us with something and make some extra money.
At that time, we were so poor that we couldn't even get together the living expenses of our family. When we heard that we had money to take, we didn't care about anything.
I still remember that when we first arrived, you asked us to fix a few punks... ”
Li Dong said with a smile: ”it's been 4 years, and it's only 5 years since we set up in the distance. If our company's seniority is older than you, it's just a few of them.
In a flash, it's been so long.
Four years is not long or short.
At the beginning, you are the most valued by me, brave and resourceful, plus we are predestined, with a East word.
Plus the ability to drive, I always take it with me, drive for me, and be my bodyguard.
You this guy, tall and powerful, come with me, feel also have face.
The key is that you can play. I remember how many of them are fighting with you, and none of them is your opponent.
In recent years, has it been abandoned? ”Zhou Haidong some embarrassed way: ”is some waste, more things, I did not how to practice.”
”You still need to exercise. You're going to have a stomachache.
I still want you to come back and continue to drive for me, old tan. It's getting more and more boring now. It's really boring. ”
Li Dong sighed a few words, but Zhou Haidong's eyebrows beat slightly.
He didn't know whether Li Dong was joking or serious.
He is now the Minister of supervision, and he has not exercised for so long. Is it appropriate to go back and drive?
Just as he was meditating, Li Dong got up with his tea cup and looked around. After a while, Li Dong said with a smile, ”sister-in-law is quite able to clean up. As soon as you look at it, you will know that she will live a good life.”
