Chapter 68 Calligraphy and Painting
Huang Jie got into the cab, put in the key, and put on the seat belt.

At the dinner table just now, he had been refraining from drinking, just to wait for this moment, so he couldn't help showing a satisfied smile.

Immediately, his expression became excited again, like a big boy who got a new toy, touching here, touching there, exploring the functions of the car everywhere.All kinds of compliments came out of his mouth like money.

Lu Tu, Li Hui and Wang Yuan sat in the back row, and they couldn't help smiling when they saw this.

Sitting in the co-pilot, Li Xiaorou couldn't stop giggling and said, "Since you like it so much, then go and buy one, anyway, you don't need money!"

Huang Jie started the car, started steadily, turned around and entered Provincial Highway 308, and drove slowly towards Fenghuang.

He was full of energy, and kept carefully observing the road conditions, but he said regretfully, "Who says there is no shortage of money? Lack of money! Can't afford it!"

Li Xiaorou asked curiously: "Isn't your house demolished? Why are you short of money?"

"It was the demolition of two houses, but the total was less than 200 million. My parents didn't choose to take the money, but chose to divide the two houses and two shops, and the cash was only more than 20. And I will get married this year. , It’s another big expense, and the money can’t help but be spent!” Huang Jie explained.

Lu Tu interjected and said, "This is a good choice. One shop will raise three generations! If you open a shop at home in the future, you won't have to go out to work!"

Huang Jie said with a smile: "Brother Lu, do you think I'm someone who knows how to do business? I don't know how to work part-time. Didn't I get a driver's license? I just plan to buy a car and drive a taxi at home in the future! "

Li Hui laughed and said: "Not bad! This idea is good! Then today we can enjoy the treatment of a full-time driver in advance! Haha, Xiao Huang, remember to let us know when we get married! We will all go to cheer you on, we people We can take the opportunity to meet again!"

This proposal was immediately unanimously approved by everyone, and Huang Jie also wholeheartedly agreed!
A few people chatted and laughed, and soon returned to Phoenix.

After sending Li Hui and others upstairs, Lu Tu and Huang Jie walked back along the river.

As night fell and the lights came on, the bright and charming Phoenix night scene appeared again as promised.

Huang Jie was still thinking about Li Hui and the others, so she couldn't help looking at Lu Tu curiously, and asked, "Brother Lu, what is the relationship between the three of them, Brother Li?"

Lu Tu was stunned for a moment, and replied, "Brother Li is Sister Wang's lover, Sister Li is Sister Wang's best friend, what's the matter?"

Huang Jie curled her lips and said, "Why do I feel that the relationship between Brother Li and Sister Li is unusual?"

Lu Tu couldn't help shaking his head thinking of all the weird things they got along with each other.

Although Li Xiaorou once explained it, her words were not convincing enough.But that's someone else's family business, why bother so much?
"Brother Li and the others are pretty good people! Hey, Xiaojie, don't you think you've fallen in love with Sister Li? Let me tell you, people who are going to get married soon. At this time, you can't have any wrong thoughts ah!"

Huang Jie scratched her head, and said with a chuckle, "Isn't this going out to play, you have to have some fun! Brother Lu, do you know where there is something fun?"

Lu Tu shook his head and said, "I've only been back for a few days, I don't know! But even if you are there, you are not allowed to go, do you hear me?"

Huang Jie knew that he was doing it for her own good, and was moved. She put her hand on his shoulder and said with a playful smile, "Brother Lu, you really look like my brother-in-law when you say that, haha!"

Lu Tu couldn't help laughing, and said, "You still have a sister? I can't be your brother-in-law, but since you call me Brother Lu, I have the responsibility to take care of your safety here."

Huang Jie sighed and said, "Okay, then I'll sleep when I get back."

Lu Tu nodded and didn't speak any more. After sending him to the inn, he ran all the way home.

After all, he still drank a little too much, and his drowsiness kept rising. If he didn't hurry back, he was afraid that he would fall asleep by leaning anywhere on the street.

Lu Yan was playing with other children in Pingba on the second floor. When she saw her father appearing at the stairs, she cheered and ran towards him with her rice bowl in hand.

Lu Tu laughed loudly, went up to her and hugged her, leaning over to kiss her.

Lu Yan looked disgusted, turned her head and twisted her body to keep avoiding, and shouted: "Dad, you've been drinking, it stinks! Let me down quickly, I'm going to play with Yingying and the others!"

Yingying is a child of a family on the fourth floor. There are three siblings, who are not much different in age. Usually whenever they come to grandparents' house, they will play with Lu Yan.

Lu Tu had no choice but to put her down and scratched his head in embarrassment. He didn't expect the little padded jacket to be so shameless.

Lu Yan ran away far away, then stopped and turned her head to laugh, saying: "Mom scolds brother at home, if you are disobedient, you will be scolded later!"

Lu Tu was stunned for a moment, and smiled at her: "Really? Haha, don't worry, with Gagong here, mom won't scold me!"

"But Gagong and Junyi went to aunt's house for dinner."

"Oh, is that so? Okay, I see! Then why don't you go home and finish your meal first, and then come down to play later?"

Lu Yan shook her head to express her refusal, and ran to the crowd of children with her rice bowl in her hand, wanting to continue playing the game of wooden figures.

Lu Tu saw that she was first accused and rejected by others, and after a few words of defense, she was quickly pulled over to play with others cheerfully, so he couldn't help but shook his head with a smile.

"My baby is really a clever ghost!"

The door was open and the lights were bright.

Long Lanxiang's face was really not very good-looking, she was holding a hanger in her hand, and was whispering a lesson to Lu Peng, as if she was still on fire.

Lu Peng bowed his head and tied his hands, silent.

When Lu Tu saw such a scene as soon as he entered the door, he couldn't help laughing.

He put down his backpack, stepped forward to remove the hanger from Long Lanxiang's hand, and asked with a smile, "What's the matter?"

Long Lanxiang shrugged her nose, rolled his eyes at him, walked to the sofa and sat down, and said, "You drank a lot of wine? Your son won't even ask him to wash the dishes for me, and he will even hit me if he shouts a few more times. Lose your temper! You said he still has me as a mother in his eyes!"

Lu Tu walked up to Lu Peng, reached out and touched his head, and asked with a smile, "Zaizai, is what mother said true?"

Lu Peng originally had a stubborn face, but now his eyes were red, and tears fell down.

He raised his hand to wipe it, nodded, shook his head again, and said aggrievedly: "I was doing my homework, and my mother insisted on making me wash the vegetables. I said to come when I finished, and she scolded me. I argued, She hit me with a hanger."

Long Lanxiang's eyes widened, and she said, "Oh! Are you reasonable? I told you to write later. I will teach you how to cook first. If my father and I are not at home in the future, you can take care of yourself. You How do you say it? You said I was being lazy! You still yell at me, it’s against you! Tell yourself, is there anything wrong with this beating!”

Lu Tu opened his son's sleeves and trousers, and there was a clear red mark on his arm and buttocks. He touched it with his hand, and it was a little swollen.

He couldn't help but sighed, and said, "Let me rub the medicine on you first."

After speaking, he pushed Lu Peng to the room, then turned his head and smiled at Long Lanxiang, signaling that he would comfort his son first.

Lu Tu took out tung oil and a cotton swab from the medicine box, rubbed it on Lu Peng's red and swollen area, and said, "Don't worry, the swelling will go down tomorrow. Have you eaten yet?"

In addition to being used for antisepsis, tung oil is also a very useful traditional Chinese medicine. Whether it is scald, chilblain, chapped, or sore throat, carbuncle, scabies, and sores, it has a very good effect. As for the treatment of redness and swelling This kind of small problem is even more out of the question.

Lu Peng shook his head and whispered, "I want to eat after finishing my homework, but my mother won't."

Lu Tu walked to his desk, picked up the notebook, glanced at it, and said, "Is there still a lot of homework? Oh, Zaizai, your writing has improved a lot!"

Lu Peng smiled and said, "No more, I've finished writing everything! Dad, can you bring me food? I'm afraid my mother will beat me."

Lu Tu laughed loudly, reached out and rubbed his hair, nodded and said, "Okay! You sit here and wait, I'll bring it to you!"

He was not in a hurry to resolve the conflicts between the mother and the son. Some problems could not be resolved with a few words.

Children are motivated to learn, which is a good thing and should be encouraged!

Long Lanxiang wanted to teach life skills to her children, so she couldn't say there was anything wrong with this approach.

But why is it that two good things, when they come together, cause such a big conflict?

Before he figured this out, he wouldn't make excuses to fool anyone.

Lu Tu filled half a bowl of rice and a bowl full of vegetables, brought them in for his son, went out and closed the door, walked up to Long Lanxiang and sat down, stretched out his arms to hug her, and asked with a smile: "You also Haven't eaten yet? How about it, my wife, would you like me to bring it to you?"

Long Lanxiang leaned on his shoulder and said, "Wait a minute, I don't have any appetite now! Do you blame me for beating my son?"

Lu Tu stroked her hair, and said with a smile: "Who told him to be your son! Isn't there a saying that beating your son on a rainy day means that you are free when you are idle! It's just that I don't understand it. Why are you so good?" Big temper? Is it not going well with the group?"

Long Lanxiang shook her head and said, "It went well! I sold some specialty products and sold two silver cups. Although I didn't make much money, I definitely won't lose money. I don't know what happened, maybe it was because of Zhang I thought the quarrel was too much, and I still got angry when I got home. I'm sorry, my dear, I shouldn't bring my emotions home. "

Lu Tu frowned, waved his hands and said, "It's okay, Zaizai is very sensible, he will understand you! What did Zhang Yi say later?"

Long Lanxiang curled her lips, "What else can he say, but in the end, he can only let it go, so forget it! He always raises fines, I really think it's easy for us to make some money! Which of those customers is easy to deal with? Really? If you are a rich guest, you won’t offer us such a low price group!”

Lu Tu smiled, pinched her nose, and said, "This is not very good, why are you still sulking?"

Long Lanxiang shook his head and shook his hand away, and said angrily: "Although the result is good, you don't know how annoying his words are! What are you talking about, oh, if they didn't come to invest from Zhangjiajie, Our tour guides in Fenghuang are still begging for food! Listen, are they talking in human language?!"

Lu Tu was stunned for a moment, a rush of blood rushed to his forehead, he raised his palm and wanted to slap it on the table, but he held back forcibly, and said softly: "Oh, no wonder! This is the reason for their arrogance, right? They are here Investing is not doing good deeds, so didn’t you make money?”

Long Lanxiang raised her hand to touch his chest a few times, and said, "Don't be angry, dear, it's not worth it to get angry! Whether they make money or not has nothing to do with us. I just don't want to be looked down upon by them, so I always follow They quarreled!"

Lu Tu let out a breath slowly, and said, "Forget it, dear, you can eat. I drank a little too much at uncle's house, so sleep for a while."

When Long Lanxiang got up to serve the meal, he closed his eyes and leaned on the sofa, but his mind was full of thoughts and he didn't feel sleepy at all.

Gucheng Company came to Fenghuang to invest in the tourism industry, and the treatment it received is beyond doubt!

All the scenic spots in Fenghuang are like commodities on the shelf. As long as you are willing to invest, you can sign a contract if you like it.

It stands to reason that with such a huge amount of funds pouring in, whether it is the construction of a large number of engineering projects or the emergence of various jobs, the local people can directly benefit and their living standards will be improved rapidly, but all this does not seem to be the case. occur.

He has seen all the changes in Phoenix City in the past few years.

The external traffic environment has indeed improved a lot, and many lights and signs have been installed on both sides of the Tuojiang River.The shops in the core scenic area of ​​the ancient city were sold out, and various commodity merchants popped up like a raging fire.Other than that, there doesn't seem to be anything new.

If there is one, probably only the culture of "Aventure"!
Oh, this is capital!
Even the bones are not spared when eating meat!
Long Lanxiang sat next to him, talking on the phone while eating.

"Really? Are you sure? That's Huang Yongyu's work, how can it be so easy to get!" She suddenly raised her voice, speaking quickly, "Okay, then I want five places first, wait a minute report to you."

After she finished speaking, she hung up the phone and called the team leader again. Turning around, she saw Lu Tu opened her eyes and said quickly, "My dear, there is an auction of calligraphy and painting works. Can you ask the guests if they want to go? There is a pair of Huang Yongyu Hua, the opportunity is rare! If you want to go, hurry up, you must arrive before eight o'clock."

Lu Tu had heard of the painting and calligraphy auction a long time ago, but he never had the chance to see it. He didn't expect to meet it today!What's more, there are Huang Yongyu's works this time, which is simply too rare!

"Okay, I'm going! Call them now."

He pulled himself together, sat up, picked up his phone and called Li Hui!
