"Zhou Chen, you really have forgotten your brothers now that you have a wife."
…………
On the second day after their wedding, Zhou Chen stayed with Peng Yongli the whole time, and the same was true for the following days. He also accompanied Peng Yongli to her parents' home in Harbin and stayed there for two days.
Zhou Chen is the squadron leader of the criminal police team. Even though he got married, he did not have much rest. After ten days of wedding leave, he left the land of comfort, returned to class and continued to work hard.
Time flies and another half a year has passed. Zhou Chen and Peng Yongli are very efficient. At this time, Peng Yongli is almost two months pregnant.
Peng Mingjie was very excited about Lili's pregnancy and gave her a big red envelope. Ma Kui, the second father, was also happy to give her a red envelope.
Originally, Zhou Chen and Peng Mingjie both hoped that Peng Yongli would stay at home to take care of the baby and not have to commute to work, but she disagreed and said that she would work for a few more months and then rest after her belly got bigger. Her attitude was very firm. Zhou Chen also respected her opinion and finally agreed, but he would personally pick her up and drop her off to and from get off work whenever he was free.
There were few entertainment activities in this era, and Zhou Chen had become accustomed to such a peaceful and tranquil life. Every day he would go to work, go home after get off work, and be with his wife.
The work of the criminal police team is very busy. Maybe it's not like the 997 workers in later generations, but the work intensity is only strong, because not only does he have to be busy in the office, but he also often has to go out on duty, and sometimes even go to other places to investigate cases. A round trip takes several days. When encountering a big case, he is so busy that he can't go home for hours.
Having lived for so many years, Zhou Chen's personality has always been the type that doesn't like to be busy all the time. Even before he got the system, his working time only occupied a small half of his life. He usually watched TV, movies and played games, which he never missed.
For example, I got a 996 job when I was an intern at university. I was deceived by the school's job fair and worked there for a month. It turned out to be a Japanese company.
I remember that there was a Japanese leader who was bossing him around when he was working. Being young and hot-headed, he simply quit his job and said damn it.
He admitted that his work at that time might not have been up to the standards of the Japanese devils, but he was unwilling to endure that humiliation. Having been to the memorial hall in Nanjing, how could he tolerate the Japanese devils yelling at him?
No matter what other people's attitude towards the Japanese is, for him, there is no right or wrong when facing the Japanese, he just doesn't like them, it's that simple.
In the Northeast at this time, even railway criminal police had to deal with a lot of cases, so even though Zhou Chen was very good at coordinating and dispatching cases, he was still very busy.
Zhou Chen supported Peng Yongli, who was more than six months pregnant, as they took a walk in the compound. Peng Yongli was already quite big at this time, so she had stopped working and was concentrating on taking care of the baby at home. Zhou Chen would support her for a walk whenever he was free.
Peng Yongli is quite satisfied with her current life. Her husband is capable, treats her very well and takes good care of her, and his family is rich.
Speaking of being rich, she remembered the time when Zhou Chen gave her money after they got married.
Having been in a relationship with Zhou Chen for several years, she knew that Zhou Chen was not short of money, but she didn't know that he was so rich. When Zhou Chen handed her tens of thousands of dollars, she was really scared and thought that Zhou Chen had done something illegal.
After Zhou Chen explained, she realized that Zhou Chen's money was not earned by doing bad things, but was the money he made from tinkering with orchids.
Although she didn't quite understand what Zhou Chen meant, she still believed her husband without reservation. She believed that there was no need for Zhou Chen to lie to her.
Because Peng Mingjie got away with the bribery case, Peng Yongli never suffered any setbacks or was targeted, and she still maintained her innocence and honesty.
"Zhou Chen, taking his wife for a walk again."
"Lili, you are so lucky. Zhou Chen, the captain of the criminal police, takes you for a walk whenever he has time. Unlike our old man, he doesn't go to work and stays at home like an old man, just crossing his legs and doing nothing."
"Mrs. Li, your old Mr. Li is pretty good. The one in our family is even worse. He doesn't go to work and just goes out to drink with people. He's an old man. I hope he dies of drinking at the table one day."
"Ha ha……"
There are many people in the compound, and everyone has been neighbors for many years. They know each other very well and don't need to beat around the bush when talking. It's noisy and lively here.
Peng Yongli was shy and a little embarrassed by the teasing from the neighbors' sisters-in-law, but Zhou Chen's expression did not change at all and he replied with a smile.
"Oh, who is this? I almost didn't recognize him."
Suddenly, Mrs. Wu, who was feeding the chickens, shouted, and Yao Yuling came out from Aunt Lu's house.
Aunt Lu's roar attracted the sisters-in-law and aunts who were talking. Then they saw Yao Yuling walking with enchanting steps. She was wearing a bright red and black dress and high-heeled leather shoes. She looked enchanting and charming.
"Hey, Xiao Yao."
"Xiao Yao, you look so beautiful."
"Look at Xiaoyao, she's so beautiful."
Everyone started to praise Yao Yuling, saying that her clothes were pretty and she was beautiful, but it was unclear how much of their praise was sincere.
Yao Yuling is definitely a celebrity in their compound. She is beautiful and knows how to dress up. She has dated Wang Xin and Niu Dali from the compound, but it didn't work out in the end, and the way it ended was not very open.
So everyone appreciates her beauty, but they also have some opinions about her as a person, but they never show it on the surface.
We are all women and we all like to be beautiful, but due to life's pressures, we don't have the conditions, or we are not brave enough.
Yao Yuling did not have so many scruples. Her unbridled display of flamboyance naturally caused many people to be disgusted.
Yao Yuling was praised by everyone, and her face was full of joy and pride, but she still pretended to be shy and said, "No, this dress was altered by Aunt Lu."
Aunt Lu said with a smile: "Who said that? Whether clothes look good or not depends on who wears them. You are good-looking, so they will look better on you."
You must be kidding. Yao Yuling is her big customer. Half of the people in the compound combined don’t have as many clothes altered by Yao Yuling alone. If she doesn’t praise Yao Yuling, then how could she praise someone else?
"Xiao Yao, your dress is so beautiful. I don't think we sell it here. Where did you buy it?"
"It's true that they didn't buy it from us, they bought it in Shenzhen."
"Hey, Xiao Yao has been to Shenzhen. I heard that there is a lot of gold there. Is that true?"
"No, it's not that exaggerated, but it's definitely much better than here."
Yao Yuling likes others to praise her and also likes others to look at her with envy. She always feels very proud.
Suddenly she turned her head and saw Zhou Chen and Peng Yongli taking a walk.
"Oh, Zhou Chen, you're walking with your wife again. What a good husband. Lili, you're so lucky."
Peng Yongli thanked Yao Yuling politely. She didn't have a good impression of Yao Yuling. On the one hand, she was influenced by Ma Yan, and on the other hand, it was because of Yao Yuling's usual behavior in the hospital. In addition, she heard from Ma Yan that Yao Yuling seemed to have set her sights on Zhou Chen before.
Yao Yuling was all smiles, and now she was very proud. Fortunately, Zhou Chen did not agree to her at the beginning, otherwise, she would not have the chance to meet the man she is with now.
Yao Yuling was indeed lucky. The man she met was the owner of a factory in Shenzhen. He had some money and was generous. She had been to Shenzhen with him twice and returned with a lot of gains each time, so she had already considered going to Shenzhen with him.
Zhou Chen saw through Yao Yuling's little thoughts, but he didn't take it seriously. How Yao Yuling lived had nothing to do with him.
However, without Jia Jinlong, considering Yao Yulin's appearance and pickyness, he felt that her ending should be much better than in the plot.
Zhou Chen was about to take Peng Yongli back, but when he took a quick look, he was suddenly stunned.
I saw a person standing at the gate of the courtyard, walking in a coquettish manner, carrying a leather bag and wearing sunglasses, swaying from side to side as he walked into the courtyard, and pretending to extend his hand to greet the people in the courtyard.
"Fuck, it's really eye-catching."
Zhou Chen recognized Niu Dali at first sight and was really unable to complain about his appearance.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 1384: Niu Dali is so arrogant, Peng Yongli gives birth to a child
Niu Dali staggered, shook his calves, and walked to the edge of the talking group in a very coquettish manner, and said something very awkward in Cantonese.
"Hello everyone."
Hearing the voice, all the aunts and sisters-in-law turned to look at him.
It's just that Niu Dali was wearing strange clothes, glasses, and had long hair, and they didn't have Zhou Chen's eyesight, so they didn't recognize him as Niu Dali at first.
"Who is this? This is?"
"I don't know? This tone comes from the south?"
"Is this person a man or a woman?"
"?"
Amid the gazes and discussions of the crowd, Niu Dali struck a coquettish pose, slowly took off his glasses, and looked at everyone with a smile on his face.
"Oh my god, Niu Dali?"
Yao Yuling's smiling expression changed and she looked shocked.
Aunt Lu, Sister Wu and the others all widened their eyes in disbelief.
"Hey, Dali, when did you come back?"
"Oh my god, Dali, why have you changed? What are you wearing? Stockings. Oh my god, how can a grown man like you wear stockings?"
"Hahaha……"
After recognizing Niu Dali, everyone laughed even more wildly, but they were more surprised.
In the eyes of the neighbors in the compound, Niu Dali had a deep impression in the past, and was rather sloppy most of the time. But the Niu Dali in front of them, no matter how strange his style and clothes were, at least looked clean, much better than before.
Looking at Niu Dali who was surrounded by the crowd, Peng Yongli who was supported by Zhou Chen was also very surprised.
"Why did Niu Dali become like this?"
She has lived in this compound for several years. Because of Zhou Chen, she often sees Niu Dali. The extremely arrogant Niu Dali in front of her is indeed very different from his previous image.
Zhou Chen just smiled slightly and said, "He's coming back home in glory, let him show off a lot."
Zhou Chen saw Niu Dali's boasting, but he just smiled. Others might not know what Niu Dali's situation was, but how could he not know?
After working hard outside for a year and making some money, he always has to come back and show off. That's just his personality, especially in front of his beloved woman.
Without disturbing the boastful Niu Dali, Zhou Chen supported Peng Yongli and continued their walk.
After Niu Dali had shown off enough, he happily came to find Zhou Chen.
"How's it going, Zhou Chen? Am I looking better now than before?"
Zhou Chen said: "I didn't see that. I think your aesthetics needs to be improved. You are really eye-catching like this."
Niu Dali rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "What do you know? People in southern cities dress like this. See these bell-bottom pants? They are very popular now. I used to stay in the car and didn't notice the changes outside, but I went to the south this year and it really opened my eyes. There is really no comparison between here and there."
"If you ask me, Zhou Chen, with your intelligence, being a policeman is a waste of your talent. If you come with me to Shenzhen, we can make a fortune together."
He didn't just want to show off in front of Zhou Chen, but he really wanted to invite Zhou Chen because he knew his own situation.
Even though he looks very impressive now, the work he does there is not up to par at all. He has neither the ability nor the opportunity to make a fortune.
In the entire compound, the person he admired most was Zhou Chen. He felt that if Zhou Chen was willing to go out with him, he would definitely make a lot of money.
"There's no need to make a fortune. I don't have that ambition. I'm a policeman now. I'm content to stay at home with my wife every day. I don't have the energy to go to the south with you."
"Oh, now that you're married, you'll be a good family man. Oh, by the way, I was not at your wedding. I'm so sorry. I gave you a red envelope as compensation."
Niu Dali took out a thick red envelope and handed it to Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen didn't take it and pushed it back: "It's too much. You know I'm a public official. It's fine if you give me ten or eight dollars as a gift, but you give me so much, do you want me to make a mistake?"
Niu Dali was surprised: "Ah, is there such a thing? I'm giving you a wedding bonus, and this is not allowed?"
"No, Dali, I appreciate your kindness, but I really don't need the red envelope."
After Zhou Chen's refusal, Niu Dali grumbled a few words and finally had to take back the red envelope. However, he still said that he would definitely give a red envelope to his eldest nephew when his eldest son was born.
Niu Dali's ultimate purpose of coming back was naturally for Yao Yuling, so after chatting with Zhou Chen for a while, he went to find Yao Yuling again and invited Yao Yuling out for dinner.
Although Niu Dali is a bootlicker, his feelings for Yao Yuling are indeed genuine, otherwise he would not have liked only her for so many years. In order to impress her, he gave up his stable job and traveled thousands of miles to work in the south.
It’s a pity that the fallen flowers are affectionate but the flowing water is indifferent.
The next day, Niu Dali hosted a party and invited Zhou Chen, Wang Xin and Cai Xiaonian. The four people in the compound gathered together to drink again.
At the dinner table, Niu Dali boasted about how awesome he was in the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, how much money he made, how many great things he had seen, and how many high-end restaurants he had visited...
"You really should go with me. If the four of us brothers work together, we will definitely make a fortune."
Just like Zhou Chen before, Cai Xiaonian and Wang Xin listened to his boasting but were not interested at all.
"I'm not thinking about getting rich. I have a wife and kids now, and I'm happy. I'm satisfied and don't want to make any more trouble. What's more, I want to replace my master as the train conductor."
"I'm not interested either. Being a criminal police officer is my dream."
"You three really have no ambition at all."
Niu Dali was helpless as he couldn't persuade any of the three people, but he was also relieved in his heart.
If Zhou Chen and the others really agreed to go to the south with him and found out that he was a swill collector, I wonder how they would view him then.
"It's up to you. No more talking. Come, have a drink. Although it's nice over there, I don't know anyone there. I can't even find anyone to drink with."
Wang Xin laughed and said, "Then come back more often. We are all here. As long as you come back, we will definitely drink with you."
"Haha, this is what a good brother is like. Come on, let's do it."
After Niu Dali came back, he attacked the rich man fiercely and even clamored in the compound to replace the water pipes in the compound, connect faucets to every household, etc.
Although many people were tempted and marveled at his generosity, no one agreed in the end.
Neighbors of this era are still very simple. They may also want to install water pipes and sinks at home, but those who want to save face are unwilling to do so and use Niu Dali's money.
In the end, of course, no one agreed. Wang Yongge and other old people even advised him to save the money now that he had it, not to think about others, and to live a good life first...
Niu Dali didn't stay in the compound for a few days. After saying goodbye to everyone, he rushed to the south again.
