"Your father is comfortable now. He doesn't have any business all day. He plays poker with a group of people in the community."
Chen Wei's mother complained in a somewhat helpless tone.
When Chen Wei heard that he had gone to play poker, he couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, and then he was very pleased.
His father has no hobbies in his life. He likes playing poker.
I used to work all day in my hometown. I didn't have time to play poker.
It's winter, and the end of the year is more leisurely. Only then can I occasionally get together with a group of old guys in the village to play poker.
Now that he's here, there's nothing to do. It's just that many people here in Yunzhou also like playing poker. His father can have a good time at last.
Chen Wei was worried that his parents would be a little bored here. Unexpectedly, his father found fun only a week ago.
"My father likes playing poker, so let him play it. He doesn't play money anyway. He's tired for half his life. It's time to have a rest. Mom, you can go for a walk when you're free. Don't stay at home."
Chen Wei smiled and said.
"There's nothing to stroll around. It's good to watch TV at home."
Ding Shufen chopped the meat, began to mix noodles again, and replied casually.
"Isn't there a lot of square dancing aunts in the community? You can go down and hop with them in the morning and evening to exercise."
Chen Wei said with a smile.
"Oh, hey, I won't go. I'm dead. A woman's family jumps around in front of people. I won't go like what it looks like."
Ding Shufen is still very traditional. Besides, although her hometown has developed well in the past two years, it is still not as open as the coastal area. The women in the village sit together to chat and make up a basket. If you put a sound and dance in the street, there must be a lot of jokes.
Chen Wei also knows that his mother's concept can't be changed in a day or two. Moreover, Chen Wei also feels that those who dance square dance are really annoying. If his mother doesn't want to dance, she won't dance.
The mother and son chatted for a while. After Ding Shufen made good noodles, they made dumplings together. Chen Wei rolled the skin and Ding Shufen made dumplings.
It's rare for them to chat together so leisurely.
Ding Shufen asked Chen Wei about the company. Chen Wei said it was very good. He made millions again this week.
Ding Shufen was shocked.
Chen Wei said that after the new year, the family's orchard would be transferred to his uncle. The old couple still came to live in Yunzhou. Ding Shufen said to ask his father what he meant.
After making dumplings, it's not eleven o'clock.
Ding Shufen called Chen Jianping and urged him to go home.
The voice on the other end of the phone was chaotic. Chen Jianping said he would go home after hitting this one.
As a result, he didn't come back until it was almost twelve o'clock.
Ding Shufen talked about Chen Jianping and went to cook dumplings.
Chen Jianping didn't take it to heart. He chatted with Chen Wei here and talked about his plans in the new year.
Chen Jianping has lived here for a few days and doesn't want to leave.
Originally, I was worried that people who were unfamiliar with the city would be very boring. Now I find a group of card friends, so I'm happy.
In addition, his son doesn't need money now. He really doesn't have to work hard every day as before.
Anyway, Yunzhou is not far from his hometown. When his son buys a car, he can catch a round trip on the day he wants to go home.
He told Chen Wei to go home to discuss with his uncle at the end of the year and transfer the orchard to his uncle.
Uncle Chen Wei's orchard is just next to his family's, which is also convenient.
After dinner, Chen Wei went to sleep.
He slept until almost four o'clock. He got up and told his mother that there was a party and he wouldn't eat dinner at home.
Ding Shufen didn't say much, just asked him to drink less wine.
Pan Jing has already booked a hotel.
It's still in the east of the city. The hotel is called northwest people's house.
A very distinctive hotel. There are private rooms inside, but unlike the private rooms in general hotels, there are no tables and chairs in the private rooms here. There is a large earth Kang in the middle of the earth Kang. A square table about 30 cm high and slightly larger than the eight immortals table is built. A large iron pot is embedded in the middle of the table. Carbon is burned under the bottom of the pot, fish and chicken are stewed in the pot, and some tofu, bean sprouts and other side dishes are added, They sat on the earth Kang, surrounded the table, and ordered some other dishes. It was cold and hot. It was really unique.
Chen Wei came at the time point. When he arrived, everyone else had arrived.
As soon as he entered the private room, Chen Wei was also happy to see a group of people sitting on the Kang and the pot was steaming.
"You really can find a place!"
Chen Wei said.
The baffle in the middle of the private room was opened, three earth Kang were connected together, and three people sat at the table.
Pan Jing and Zhao Yang, Zheng Junpeng and Ma Hongrui, and Tan Rui sit at the same table, which is a little empty.
The six female colleagues brought by Zhou Yi and pan Jing sat on the other two tables, with seven or eight people sitting at one table.
"Why did you come here? I'm waiting for you. Come on, sit here!"
Pan Jing greeted Chen Wei and asked him to sit inside.
Zhao Yang is sitting in the innermost, Zheng Junpeng and his wife are next to him, and pan Jing and Tan Rui are on the other side.
As Chen Wei came, pan Jing gave up her seat and let him sit between Zhao Yang and Tan Rui. She sat on the outside, next to Ma Hongrui and Tan Rui.
Chen Wei took off his shoes and went to the Kang. He walked in behind Tan Rui, sat down and said, "I came from the middle city. I'm really sorry for the delay on the road."
After that, he looked at Tan Rui next to her and nodded to her. It was a greeting.
Tan Rui smiled shyly. Naturally, he reached out to help Chen Wei take off his coat and said, "it's hot in the house. Take off your coat."
Chen Wei did not refuse and took off his coat.
Tan Rui took Chen Wei's coat, got up and hung it on the wall behind him.
Then he sat down next to Chen Wei, with a virtuous demeanor of a small jasper.
Several people saw it, but no one said anything, and even pretended not to see it.
Only pan Jing smiled knowingly, turned to go out and asked the waiter to serve.
"Why didn't you bring your girlfriend?"
Zhao Yang asked, and then looked at Tan Rui intentionally or unintentionally.
Tan Rui still kept smiling, nothing different.
He even offered to pour Chen Wei a cup of hot tea.
Chen Wei said thank you and then said to Zhao Yang, "she's on a business trip and won't be back until next week."
Zhao Yang gave a shout and didn't ask any more.
Chen Wei exchanged greetings with Ma Hongrui, and finally asked Tan Rui, "how's this time?"
They haven't seen each other since Liu Jia got married last time.
A few days after the wedding, Tan Rui sent a winding wechat to Chen Wei from time to time, but Chen Wei replied simply and politely every time. The sense of distance was obvious, and Tan Rui didn't send another private letter.
