No regrets ninety-two

Chapter 601 Complaint
Favor is a debt, passed down from generation to generation.

For this former father-in-law, Wu Xiaozheng didn't have a good impression, nor did he have a bad feeling. He just felt that he was a bit roundabout, difficult to communicate with, and had nothing in common with him.

But for Li Huilan, the former mother-in-law, Wu Xiaozheng is really grateful.

Even when Zhong Xiaolan was divorcing him, Li Huilan always stood by his side, scolding Zhong Xiaolan, and even said to sever the relationship between mother and daughter, but it didn't work.

Therefore, even if he didn't intend to reconnect with Zhong Xiaolan in this life, he didn't mean to avoid this couple.

It was for this reason that he invited Zhong Huamin and his wife to dinner.

Of course, the most important thing is to apply eye drops in front of them to cure Zhong Xiaolan's bad temper, otherwise it would be really annoying if she keeps pissing herself off like that at school.

For Zhong Huamin, what he likes most is when people ask him about allusions.

Therefore, as soon as Wu Xiaozheng's voice fell, he immediately picked it up.

"The word "copper smell" comes from the "Hundred Metaphors". The original text is like this: Some officials retreated from the court and met their friends... The smell of velvet brown, outside, is it copper milk? The smell of copper milk, standing side by side, connected Trace and trend..."

Zhong Huamin came up with a piece of ancient prose in a polite manner.

Then he said: "There is another saying that the word copper smell comes from "The Book of the Later Han Dynasty Cui Lie Biography". It is said that in the Eastern Han Dynasty, a man named Cui Lie bought a Situ official position equivalent to the prime minister with 500 million yuan. , ranked among the three males, but people talked a lot about his scandals—'The commentators think he is a copper stink.'”

Then he began to explain: "The word copper smell used to refer to people who bought officials with money in ancient times. In modern times, it refers to businessmen who value money too much but lack quality."

Wu Xiaozheng was waiting for this explanation.

He said: "Professor Zhong, there is one more thing I want to ask you. I want you to comment on it and see if it is a bad smell for me to do so."

When he said this, Zhong Xiaolan became impatient.

Obviously, Wu Xiaozheng wanted to apply eye drops in front of her father.

But she said it by herself, and she was afraid that Wu Xiaozheng would say that she was uneducated, but she couldn't stop him from communicating with her father, so she had no choice but to give Wu Xiaozheng a hard look.

Zhong Huamin didn't notice anything unusual about his daughter, and said kindly, "Tell me."

"It's like this. I think computer technology will have great prospects in the future, so I spent some money to help the school build a small computer room, and hired a teacher to teach computer knowledge to those students who are interested. You said, I Does this kind of behavior stink of copper?"

Zhong Huamin was a little surprised.

He knew about his daughter's participation in a computer interest group during the summer vacation, but only now did he know that this interest group was actually invested by Wu Xiaozheng.

So he immediately denied it: "How can this be counted! You are promoting culture and disseminating knowledge, which is equivalent to doing good deeds and doing good deeds. How can you have anything to do with the smell of money!"

Zhong Xiaolan was also dumbfounded.

Regarding Wu Xiaozheng's investment in the computer interest group, because of Wu Xiaozheng's instructions, Principal Hu has not disclosed to anyone for the time being.

Only then did she realize that what everyone enjoyed was actually invested by Wu Xiaozheng.

including herself.

While enjoying the benefits brought by other people's spending money, it is really unkind to talk about the smell of copper!
If her father knew about this, wouldn't she have to be criticized?

So she immediately gave Wu Xiaozheng a pleading look, hoping that he would stop talking.

Wu Xiaozheng hesitated for a moment.

He almost relented again.

But... for the sake of peace in the future, let's talk about it.

So he continued: "But some people say that I smell like copper."

"Who? Isn't this nonsense!"

Zhong Huamin did not agree with this statement, and acted quite angry.

Wu Xiaozheng said the most important sentence: "That's what your girl said."

The atmosphere immediately became awkward.

Zhong Huamin looked at his daughter in surprise.

Li Huilan, who had been whispering to Ma Li, also stopped communicating at this time, and looked at Zhong Xiaolan in surprise.

At this moment, Zhong Xiaolan wished she could find a crack in the ground and sneak in.

At this time, she really regretted it.

If I had known that that guy was so bad and liked to sue, I shouldn't have told my parents about his invitation, and ended up embarrassing myself so much.

It really pissed her off.

She couldn't help but glared at Wu Xiaozheng again.

Zhong Huamin was also a little embarrassed at this time.

In terms of children's education, he is very particular about benevolence, righteousness and morality. He has been instilling the concept of knowledge and reason in Zhong Xiaolan since he was a child, but now, his daughter, whom he has always been proud of, has been complained about. What's going on?

For Zhong Huamin and Li Huilan's surprised performance, Wu Xiaozheng was also a little surprised.

Judging by their reactions, could it be that they don't know that their daughter has such a virtue?
It's really possible.

Wu Xiaozheng remembered.

When I first met Zhong Xiaolan, she acted very knowledgeable and reasonable, with a very intellectual appearance, so that I got married to her very satisfied within a few months of getting along with her. It's very different when we get along.

From this point of view, this girl really has a high IQ, and she is good at disguising herself in front of her parents at a young age.

Looking at her now, she really looks like a good girl.

This difference is too big!

Wu Xiaozheng decided to add some strong medicine.

He said: "Professor Zhong, Teacher Li, to be honest, I think Zhong Xiaolan is really outstanding, especially in terms of study, which I admire very much. But in terms of personality, I think it is still a little too arrogant and not easy to get along with." .If this can be changed a little bit, it will definitely be better.”

When he said this, Wu Xiaozheng acted very sincerely, as if he was sincerely offering advice.

But he himself knew that such a statement would embarrass the Zhongs and his wife, because it was equivalent to saying that they did not educate their daughter well, and it was equivalent to slapping them in the face.

In this case, if you were an adult with social experience, you would generally not say it easily, because it would embarrass the other party.

But now Wu Xiaozheng said nothing happened.

Don't forget, he is less than 16 years old with his current status, and he is at the age where he likes to talk about everything. After hearing this, Zhong Huamin and his wife thought that he was inexperienced in society and didn't understand the world.

But for Zhong Xiaolan, the consequences were a bit serious.

Wu Xiaozheng reckoned that when she got home, it was inevitable that she would be severely reprimanded.

Sure enough, Zhong Xiaolan glared at him again, revealing a look of extreme hatred.

Wu Xiaozheng accepted it as soon as he saw a deal.

He found that the atmosphere in the box was a bit awkward because the Zhong couple didn't know how to respond to him.

Take it easy then.

After being a villain, Wu Xiaozheng is ready to be a good person.
