"Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi—" the coordinator's voice said in WeChat: "It's finally finished, but the scriptwriter still needs to focus on the post-production. Let's finish eating in Sanlitun on New Year's Eve and go to the bar after eating. Are you coming?"

Xiao Yi said: "Although I really want to go... Sister An, but I have already decided where to go during the Chinese New Year."

"Okay—" the coordinator said: "Come to our company to play when you have time, sister will take you to eat delicious food."

Xiao Yi was elated, thinking that he must visit them after the Chinese New Year.

Xiao Yi asked Lu Zhou for his ID card, glanced at it, and almost burst out laughing, Lu Zhou roared: "Where is yours! Take a look! Whose ID photo is not ugly..."

Xiao Yi laughed and fell down on the stairs holding Lu Zhou's ID card. Lu Zhou gritted his teeth and snatched Xiao Yi's ID card. Xiao Yi's ID card is very handsome. Lu Zhou was speechless immediately.

"Where are you going? Is the location fixed?" Lu Zhou saw Xiao Yi coming down the stairs.

"It's settled." Xiao Yi said, "Let's go tomorrow."

Lu Zhou stared at Xiao Yi, seeing that Xiao Yi hadn't told him where to go for a while, he threatened: "If you don't meet the requirements, you will... you will..."

"The servant comes from the palace." Xiao Yi said sincerely.

Lu Zhou: "You remember it for me. I will help you if you are not in the palace."

++++++

The next day, Xiao Yi drove Lu Zhou to the airport, pulling and pushing the suitcases, carrying one on his back, with Lu Zhou's Hermes hanging around his neck. When boarding the plane, Xiao Yi held Lu Zhou's boarding pass, After walking through the first-class passage and boarding the plane, Lu Zhou's expression changed, and he said, "Wuhan? Why are you going to Wuhan?"

"Wuhan is very good." Xiao Yi flipped through the magazines on the plane and said, "The Chinese New Year is lively."

Lu Zhou looked at Xiao Yi suspiciously, and Xiao Yi asked, "Brother Zhou, have you been there?"

Lu Zhou said: "My mother took me to live in Wuhan for a while when I was young."

Xiao Yi was a little surprised. No wonder Lu Zhou likes to eat Hubei cuisine. Is it because of this reason? Xiao Yi smiled and said, "I am also from Hubei, brother Zhou, you are from my hometown."

Lu Zhou didn't speak, took off his sunglasses, adjusted the back of the chair, and fell into the memory. Xiao Yi thought that he had hit and missed, and seemed to have guessed Lu Zhou's thoughts. Great, this should reduce the frequency of being scolded during the Chinese New Year...

However, the sky was not what people wished—at five o'clock in the afternoon that day:

Xiao Yi was sweating profusely, protecting Lu Zhou from squeezing into the car from the mighty army of migrant workers.

They got off at Tianhe Airport at two o'clock, and after many twists and turns, they finally squeezed onto the T250 at Hankou Railway Station bound for Jingshan County. I bought standing tickets, and there were peasant brothers sitting on sacks beside me. People were crowded at the door of the bathroom. Lu Zhou's 100,000 yuan windbreaker was completely smelled of smoke, and there were people picking up instant noodles next to him.

Xiao Yi: "I'm sorry, the highway is blocked, and my brother's car... can't get through."

Lu Zhou: "..."

"Have you ever been on this kind of train, Brother Zhou?" Xiao Yi said without words, and swayed back and forth with the frequency of the train, saying: "Come on, get up high! How about I sing a song for you?" ?”

Lu Zhou said calmly: "Sing, sing well, your penis can be saved until tomorrow."

Xiao Yi: "..."

"Tick tock tick tock tick tock..." Xiao Yi started to read the prelude to the sound of the train while scrolling through the magazine.

"Tick tock tick tock..."

Lu Zhou: "Your alarm clock!"

"Life is a novel of suspense..." Xiao Yi finished the magazine and sang: "The next page, what is the plot—I believe no one knows, what happened to the world—"

Xiao Yi held a rolled up magazine as a mic, at first he sang in a low voice, then raised his eyebrows, with Xiao Yi in his eyes, when he sang, his expression was focused and his spirit was high, as if he was holding a mic and standing on a stage that belonged only to him .

The train rumbled loudly, passing through the mountains and forests, across the land, out of the Hankou Plain, and under the darkening purple sky, to the distance.

In winter, smoke billows from the houses on the farm.

"I like——Lonely Adventure Follows the Clues of Dreams, My Registered Trademark is Freedom—"

“…I am happy even to breathe.”

"Woo—" The train whistled.

The deserted land, the capped mountains and rivers, someone’s firecrackers rang, the night was low, thousands of lights were lit, and the Big Dipper was shining brightly in the winter sky.

The smog that covered the sky and the sun dissipated, and the noisy crowd also returned to the distance.

On the horizon, there is an endless plain and a vast world.

"Me on the roof—me in the mirror—yeah—" Xiao Yi's joy was released almost irresistibly, and finally turned into a low chant, gradually fading out.

After a few seconds of silence, everyone around applauded.

The aunt selling dinner pushed the cart and stared at Xiao Yi from behind.

"Is it over?" the aunt roared angrily, "Get out of the way!"

Xiao Yi was taken aback, and immediately moved away. Lu Zhou's face darkened, and he said to the aunt, "Why are you yelling at him? Do you know..."

"Shhh." Xiao Yi said, "Be careful of being secretly photographed on the headlines."

Lu Zhou: "..."

Xiao Yi hurriedly made way for his aunt. The food was delicious. Lu Zhou swallowed his saliva. He ate very little on the plane at noon. At this time, his saliva was about to drip into the car. Xiao Yi checked his words and saw that Lu Zhou didn't ask for a meal, so he took the initiative to buy him a lunch box and said, "Eat whatever you want, and I'll find something to eat when I get to Jingshan later."

Lu Zhou didn't ask, so he took the meal, leaned against the wall of the carriage, and ate the lunch box with one hand and the rice with the other, while Xiao Yi held another box of dishes for him to pick and choose.

The people sitting in the aisle were all looking at them. In fact, the food on the train was not bad compared to the crew. Xiao Yi was a little scared, and said to Lu Zhou: "I didn't expect... Hey, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, in fact, the environment at my house is very good, and the Chinese New Year is very lively. We all have New Year's Eve dinner together, so..."

Lu Zhou said impatiently: "What's wrong with me? I have lived everywhere when I was on location. Do I seem to be such a difficult person?"

It’s okay, okay, Xiao Yi thought to himself, Lu Zhou didn’t seem to get angry when he changed from the first-class cabin to the train station ticket on the way, or it’s because there are so many people that it’s hard to get angry, or he really doesn’t care, there is a place to celebrate the New Year also. Well, that's much better.

"Go and buy a bento." Lu Zhou said.

The aunt pushing the cart had already left, Xiao Yi said, "I'll just eat whatever I want."

So Xiao Yi poured Lu Zhou's leftovers on the leftovers, threw away the other lunch box, and ate the leftovers.

Everyone around looked at them, Lu Zhou's face was not very good-looking, it seemed that no one recognized him yet, and he didn't know if he was unhappy because he was not recognized, or because he was stared at, maybe It's the double unhappiness caused by being stared at for so long without being recognized... Lu Zhou scanned his surroundings, and all the rising fighters carefully averted their curious eyes.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Xiao Yi opened the car door and let Lu Zhou get out of the car, and finally arrived at Jingshan...

Xiao Yi's younger brother, named Xiao Qiang, got on the expressway and was blocked by large and small cars returning home during the Chinese New Year. However, Xiao Yi called and said that he didn't need to come to Wuhan to pick him up, so Xiao Qiang got off the interchange again. Waiting at Jingshan Railway Station, the lights were dark, and the lights in the square in front of the railway station were broken.

Xiao Yi first let Lu Zhou get on his younger brother's second-hand Santana, and then slammed luggage into the rear trunk.

"Sister-in-law is so fun!" Xiao Qiang turned his head and said, seeing a man in the back seat, he immediately yelled.

Lu Zhou: "..."

"My day!" Xiao Qiang shouted, "Trapper! You are a woman!"

Xiao Yi stuffed Luzhou's suitcase hard in the back seat, and yelled at his younger brother: "Sweet you! How many times did you tell me to bring my wife back to Sarah (Baimu, when did you tell me that I would bring my wife back)!"

"Then what's wrong with these four (then which one is this)!" Xiao Qiang pointed to Lu Zhou, poked his head out of the driver's seat inexplicably, and turned around to ask his brother.

Lu Zhou finally couldn't take it anymore, and roared angrily in Wuhan dialect: "It's your ancestor! You two brothers have passed a pile of grams (you two brothers have met each other)!"

Xiao Qiang: "..."

Xiao Yi said: "Take out the rope!"

Xiao Qiang got out of the car with a blank face, Xiao Yi took the rope, tied Lu Zhou's other LV trolley case that couldn't fit on the roof of the car, and said, "Let's go!"

Xiao Qiang drove Lu Zhou at a high speed, and Xiao Yi and the teetering LV tied to the roof of the car left.

"He is my younger brother, Xiao Qiang." Xiao Yi said to Lu Zhou, and then introduced to his younger brother solemnly: "This is my boss, my male god, my idol! Xiao Qiang, his name is Brother Zhou."

"Brother Zhou is good, brother Zhou." Xiao Qiang clasped his hands together in the rear mirror, and bowed to Lu Zhou. Lu Zhou really lost to these two brothers. Xiao Qiang handed Lu Zhou a cigarette, and Lu Zhou waved his hand, thinking about the name I don't know who started it.

"Xiao Qiang, Xiao Qiang." Xiao Yi smiled apologetically, "When everyone hears his name, they will think of Xiao Qiang as a disaster..."

Lu Zhou was drinking water, and almost spit it out. Xiao Qiang said again: "Brother, Mom heard that you brought your wife back, and she cooked dinner early! I told her not to do it, and she didn't listen."

Xiao Yi's head was full of black lines, and he replied: "I clearly said to bring friends back. Have parents eaten?"

Xiao Qiang said: "Eat it."

Xiao Yi's mother must have misunderstood, Xiao Yi said "friend", so it was understood as a pronoun for girlfriend, Xiao Yi looked embarrassed, but Lu Zhou seemed to have not heard it at all, looking thoughtfully at the scene outside. Roads, five or six-story buildings, dim street lights in the county town, people riding bicycles and electric vehicles coming and going, and children playing with cannons before the Spring Festival.

The colorful lights on the trees along the way are all hung up, twinkling, and they are very eye-catching in the dark night.

Less than 20 minutes later, the car arrived downstairs at Xiao Yi's house. The two brothers each carried a big box and walked up to the sixth floor briskly. When I was in the car, I took a look and said, "Your house is nice."

"I bought it a few years ago." Xiao Yi said: "I originally wanted to buy it for me as a wedding room after graduation. Now my brother lives with my parents and registers my brother's name."

Lu Zhou nodded, and Xiao Yi said: "Brother Zhou, let's stay at my house tonight, everything is packed, and we will change hotels tomorrow..."

"No need." Lu Zhou said, "I went back in the third year of junior high school."

Xiao Yi heaved a sigh of relief. Lu Zhou bullied men and women in his own home, and he was not so difficult to serve when he came out. When they entered the house, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother were so enthusiastic that they ran out to greet him. The first person to enter Xiao's house was Lu Zhou's LV. Although Xiao's father didn't touch luxury goods, he also knew that it seemed a bit expensive.

"Oh—it's finally you—" Xiao's father and Xiao's mother thought they could see their daughter-in-law, but when Lu Zhou showed up, they were dumbfounded, it turned out to be a man.

Papa Xiao: "..."

Mother Xiao: "..."

"This is Brother Zhou." Xiao Yi said, "Brother Zhou, my parents."

"Hello Uncle, Hello Auntie." Lu Zhou shook hands with Xiao's father and Xiao's mother with black lines. Xiao's father was the first to recover and said with a smile: "Hurry up, please sit down, you are tired from the journey."

It will be safe when I get home, Xiao Yi thought that no matter how bad Lu Zhou is, he can rest for a few days when he goes home, so why don't you still scold me in front of my mother.

Sure enough, Lu Zhou didn't scold anyone, but was very polite when he was a guest at Xiao Yi's house.

Xiao's father is the teaching director of an elementary school, and he is about to retire soon. Xiao's mother used to work in Jingshan knitwear factory, retired early, and talked about the marriage of her two sons every day. After adjusting, he is still very enthusiastic about Lu Zhou.

While Xiao Yi moved Lu Zhou's things into the room, he introduced Lu Zhou as his new boss and took care of him all the time. Father Xiao couldn't help but thank Lu Zhou, and thought that his son was ignorant. up.

"Just call me Xiao Lu." Lu Zhou smiled.

"Eat something." Mama Xiao said, "I thought you would be back in the afternoon... The Spring Festival travel road is blocked, come here, Xiao Lu will eat something to pad his stomach first, and I will heat up the soup."

Xiao's mother went to open the pressure cooker to heat up the soup, and Lu Zhou said to Xiao Yi: "You are busy with your work, don't worry about me, hey, thank you, auntie."

Xiao Yi finally settled down with Lu Zhou, and the family returned to normal after a brief hilarity. Dad Xiao asked: "How is Duma doing? Last time he called home and asked for your contact information." .”

Xiao Yi remembered that it should be years ago, when they were about to hold a class reunion, Duma called his family and said: "He is now managing his father's company, doing private lending (note: short-term loans) , all drive Lexus."

Xiao's father gave Xiao Yi a reproachful look, Xiao Yi laughed, and sat at the dining table, Lu Zhou was drinking soup, Xiao Yi said: "Mom! Is there any soup left?"

Xiao Ma scooped up a bowl of soup for him, and Xiao Yi scooped up some more lotus root for Lu Zhou, saying, "Brother Zhou, try this winter lotus root, which can't be eaten anywhere in the country."

"I know." Lu Zhou said, "I used to eat it often when I lived in Wuhan, but I rarely ate it when I went to Beijing."

Only the lotus root pork ribs soup in Hubei has a unique color and aroma. The lotus root can be pulled out. Xiao Yi gorged himself on the taste of home, feeling extremely comfortable.

After supper, Xiao Yi went to turn on the water heater and fetch clothes for Lu Zhou. After busy work, Lu Zhou said, "I'll do it myself."

"It's okay." Xiao Yi said, "Let's sleep in this room at night."

Xiao Yi's home has two bedrooms and two living rooms, but it is more than 90 square meters, which is quite spacious. He knows Lu Zhou's habit and asks his parents to clean up the room in advance, move out all unnecessary things quickly, and move the computer to the living room I went to the corner to let my brother surf the Internet, and all the bedding was replaced with new ones. There is no heating in Central China, and it is cold and damp in winter, so I turned on a heater to cook.

Because it is a new house that has not been stayed for a long time, the windows are wiped very clean, and the night view of the development zone is outside. The bed is big and the furniture is very new. The conditions are not much worse than those of a hotel. Xiao Yi poured a glass of water and put it in the On the bedside table, connect all electronic products to the wifi at home before going to take a shower.

Lu Zhou stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows and looked at the balcony outside. The lights were bright and the balcony was cooing. Lu Zhou was startled and found two chickens outside.

"Sent by the student's parents." Xiao Yi came in after taking a shower and said, "It's a bit cold, so I have to move it to the kitchen and eat during the New Year."

Xiao Yi moved the two chicken cages to the kitchen.

"How much is this house per ping?" Lu Zhou asked.

"I bought it several years ago." Xiao Yi said while wiping his hair, "It was only more than 9,000 when I bought it, but now it has increased to more than 10,000."

Lu Zhou: "Yes, the air is also very good."

Xiao Yi hit the floor shop and said, "The average salary is also low. My younger brother works as a logistics worker in a supermarket, and it costs more than 2,000 a month. He still finds a job through a relationship."

Lu Zhou said: "You can hang out at home, why don't you come back?"

"Hey." Xiao Yi said: "I can't stay in the county when I go home. What kind of job can the music department find here? I still have to go to Wuhan. I can't afford a house of more than 30,000 ping. I can't stay in Jingshan for a lifetime. Bar."

Lu Zhou said, "Take that and have a look."

Lu Zhou pointed to a photo frame on the bookshelf, and Xiao Yi was in a hurry to put the photo frame away, but Lu Zhou's expression changed, Xiao Yi had to obediently take it out and show it to Lu Zhou.

Above is Xiao Yi and a very popular draft singer, the two of them got together, smiling and gesticulating.

Lu Zhou was surprised: "You know him?"

Xiao Yi said: "The same batch as us..."

Lu Zhou looked Xiao Yi up and down, feeling like he couldn't recognize him. Xiao Yi confessed honestly, "We took this photo when we participated in the audition for the best boy."

"Didn't enter the whole country?" Lu Zhou said.

"A sponsorship fee of 500,000 yuan is required." Xiao Yi said, "If you can't pay it out, you will be banned from the region."

Lu Zhou snorted and said, "Mr. Du thought about signing him. This kid has been popular for a few years and offended the brokerage company. Now he's going back."

Xiao Yi hummed, put the photo frame back, and fastened it facing the wall. Lu Zhou was annoyed when he saw Xiao Yi's appearance, and taught him a lesson: "What are you doing with the photo? Are you jealous of him?"

Xiao Yi: "..."

Xiao Yi had no choice but to turn the photo over again, and Lu Zhou said again: "If you don't want to accept failure, you are a dick."

"I'm just a dick." Xiao Yi said helplessly.

Lu Zhou looked curiously at Xiao Yi's photo on the bookshelf. Xiao Yi was standing in the center of the stage with a guitar on his shoulders. He was illuminated by colorful lights. Xiao Yi was in high spirits, like a star on the stage.

There are also various photos below, on Sina and various celebrities.

"My mother took me to live in Wuhan for twelve years when I was young." Lu Zhou said: "I went to primary school in Hankou."

"Yes." Xiao Yi said.

Lu Zhou said, "Come up and sleep."

Xiao Yi hurriedly said: "No, no, I'll do it on the floor."

Lu Zhou said: "It's okay, this bed is big, we sleep together, the floor is too cold, it's not good for your parents to see you lying on the floor later, no matter how stupid you are, it's your parents' treasure, isn't it?"

Xiao Yi: "..."

Xiao Yi lay down on the bed and folded the quilt twice. Lu Zhou casually flipped through a game magazine of Xiao Qiang, and said, "My mother asked me to go to the sports school, and the sports school will subsidize me. I don't want you, Brother Zhou. Go, just want to act."

"Acting majors are expensive, don't you know?" Lu Zhou said to Xiao Yi: "At that time, it cost more than 40,000 a year, and 160,000 in four years. Go, I'm determined to act, accepting cases, working part-time as a model, doing chores on the set, editing films, and pushing the camera on the ground, you know it."

"Make it." Xiao Yi said, "I made it."

Lu Zhou: "..."

"Talk to you well!" Lu Zhou said angrily, threw the magazine away, and said, "Stop talking!"

"Tell me..." Xiao Yi wailed immediately and turned around to hug Lu Zhou. Lu Zhou blushed immediately, and hurriedly wanted to pick Xiao Yi out. He kicked him to the side and said, "If it weren't for the persistence back then, Where can I be now?"

"I saw your interview." Xiao Yi said: "Many movie magazines have your interviews, Brother Zhou, you are very inspirational."

"Beipiao singers have eight thousand without ten thousand." Lu Zhou said: "Do you know how Mr. Du and the others sign artists? Not only depends on whether you can become popular, but also depends on whether you can develop in the future. Out of 10,000 people, there are only a dozen or so in their early years, and most of them sink to the bottom without even splashing. Can you say that these people don’t work hard? One by one is working harder than the other.”

"Are you saying that these people are not talented?" Lu Zhou said casually, "It's just wrong. Many people are more talented than those in their early years. You are very talented. But if you are not popular, who can you blame?"

Xiao Yi: "..."

Xiao Yi thought to himself, are you encouraging me or laughing at me? It's not right to encourage you, I've sold my life to you for three years, even if I want to go back to be a singer, I can't escape.

"So this is fate." Xiao Yi said with emotion.

Lu Zhou: "..."

"It's a matter of opportunity!" Lu Zhou said angrily, "Be patient! Wait for the opportunity! Seize the opportunity! Is your IQ in arrears for a long time! Why can't you understand what I'm telling you?! You're mad-"

Xiao Yi thought about it blankly and said, "Okay."

Lu Zhou said: "Be serious about being an assistant. Someday you will have a chance. Follow me for theme songs for TV dramas and movies. You can go up and try. You can compose music and lyrics. If you seize the opportunity, you will become popular?!"

"Is it possible?" Xiao Yi trembled all of a sudden.

Lu Zhou made a vague nasal sound, Xiao Yi yelled immediately, rushed forward to hug Lu Zhou, and said, "Is it okay?! Brother Zhou, you promised me! My lifelong dream is to sing you a theme song—"

Lu Zhou was prepared for this time. When he finished saying that, he immediately raised his leg. The moment Xiao Yi rushed forward, he was decisively kicked off the bed by Lu Zhou.

++++++

The next day, Xiao Yi was woken up by the sound of firecrackers outside. Jingshan is about to celebrate the New Year. The farther away the county is from the city, the stronger the smell of the New Year. Many people who worked in Wuhan have returned. It is lively and lively. Outside the window Brings a light saltpeter smell.

Xiao Yi got up sleepily and saw Lu Zhou chatting with his mother at the dining table. Xiao mother had been nagging and worrying about her son's marriage. Lu Zhou listened sincerely and raised some small opinions from time to time. Xiao's mother seemed to regard Lu Zhou as Xiao Yi's big brother, and repeatedly asked Lu Zhou to take care of Xiao Yi and not spoil him too much.

While brushing his teeth, Xiao Yi mumbled, "Mom!"

"Your mother is right." Lu Zhou pointed at Xiao Yi and said, "He just can't grow up. Did you hear what Auntie said? Sometimes I wonder how he survived in Beijing."

"Hey, yes." Xiao Ma said helplessly.

While brushing his teeth, Xiao Yi thought to himself that the subject was upside down, why is Lu Zhou scolding him with his mother now... These days...

"Little Lu!" Dad Xiao said, who was reading the newspaper in the living room, "What business are you doing now?"

Lu Zhou said: "The entertainment industry."

In a hurry last night, Xiao Yi’s introduction was “my boss” again. Father Xiao hadn’t noticed that this guy was actually Lu Zhou, who is popular among thousands of boys and girls plus aunts and uncles. He picked up the remote control and changed a few channels. , Said: "I have a student who also started a company in Beijing and made money. It's amazing. Like yours, the capital is very strong."

"Beijing is the political and cultural center of the country." Lu Zhou said: "Going north to find a new job, if the development is good, it is very good."

Xiao Yi's father looked at Lu Zhou from a distance from under the reading glasses, and said with a smile, "I'm watching an anti-Japanese war movie recently, and you look a lot like the actor in it."

Lu Zhou chuckled, Xiao Yi's mother was reminded, "Wang Guoyi! You look like Wang Guoyi!"

Lu Zhou: "..."

Xiao Yi: "..."

Wang Guoyi is the name of the character played by Lu Zhou. Xiao Yi almost sprayed the porridge all over Lu Zhou's face. He suppressed a smile and ate the porridge with side dishes. Du Mei said that he could not reveal to anyone that he was Lu Zhou's assistant. , Xiao Yi dare not say.

But if Lu Zhou said it himself, then it’s none of Xiao Yi’s business. Lu Zhou is simply embarrassing, but he can handle this kind of scene much better. He said, “There are more anti-war films this year than in previous years.”

"Yes, yes." Xiao Ma said, "His dad and I both love to watch the TV dramas of the Republic of China."

"Little Lu." Papa Xiao said earnestly.

Xiao Yi suddenly had an ominous premonition.

Lu Zhou looked at Papa Xiao expectantly with a smile.

Papa Xiao asked, "Little Lu, are you married?"

"Uh, no." Lu Zhou said, "I just broke up with my girlfriend some time ago."

Xiao's father said: "Xiao Yi's cousin works at the city post office and just came back during Chinese New Year..."

"Dad! You are enough!" Xiao Yi was about to be knocked out of the window by a thunderbolt, and said in tears, "Stop talking!"

Lu Zhou laughed loudly, Xiao's father said: "What's the matter, Xiao Yi, what's the matter with you?"

Lu Zhou waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter."

After dinner, Xiao Yi and his mother counted the money together. Xiao Yi took a stack of pink money, which was 20,000 yuan thick. Xiao's mother tried to push it back, saying that your father and I have a pension and can't spend it. You have so much money. However, Xiao Yi pushed it so that he was about to quarrel, saying: "I will stay with Brother Zhou for board and lodging in Beijing, and the company still has reimbursement, so it doesn't cost much."

"Then mom will keep it for you." Xiao's mom said.

"You can just spend it." Xiao Yi said: "Subsidize your living expenses, usually eat better, and make more dishes for the New Year's Eve dinner this year."

Xiao's mother said that what you earned was hard-earned money, how dare mother spend it, but her expression was beaming, and she sat at the coffee table and counted money.

Lu Zhou said, "Xiao Yi."

Xiao Yi knew what he was going to say, and immediately said: "No need, Brother Zhou."

He said to his parents again: "Brother Zhou paid me all my salary, and Brother Zhou also gave me an extra year-end bonus."

Lu Zhou said, "Yes."

Xiao Yi: "No, hey, brother Zhou, don't worry about it, I'll go find some clothes, we'll go out later..."

Lu Zhou said: "I'll do it myself, you go first."

Lu Zhou went into the room, Xiao Ma said after a while: "Xiao Yi, your brother has a girlfriend and wants to buy a new car..."

"Oh." Xiao Yi said, "Go ahead, how much will it cost?"

"He said 200,000. Both your dad and I said it was too expensive."

"A car worth 200,000 yuan!" Papa Xiao said, "The boss drives it! I told him not to buy it until the mortgage is paid off. Does it mean you can't get married if you drive a Santana? How many people on the street don't even have a car?" Woolen cloth."

Xiao Yi knew that his parents favored his younger brother to some extent. After all, his younger brother didn't go to Wuhan and stayed in the county to take care of his parents.

"Let's buy one for 100,000 yuan." Xiao Yi thought for a while and said, "If it's too expensive, he can't afford it."

Xiao Ma thought for a while and said, "I'll tell him not to buy as much as possible, the mortgage hasn't been paid off yet."

Xiao Yi said: "It's okay, just buy it if you like it. If you have a car in Beijing, you can't drive it. You have to buy a number by lottery. It's good to have a car at home and be able to drive it."

After counting the money, Mama Xiao took off her glasses, feeling a little sad, Xiao Yi took the car keys again, and said, "Brother Zhou and I went out for a stroll, and we won't come back for lunch."

Xiao Qiang only got up at this time. He played games all night yesterday, and went to his parents' room to catch up on sleep in the morning. Wearing a pair of long johns and a sweater, he glanced at Lu Zhou when he left the room, and turned to brush his teeth. Suddenly, he said "Huh?", and he was shocked for a moment. He came over with a puzzled face and stared at Lu Zhou.

"You... aren't you Lu Zhou?" Xiao Qiang seemed to have discovered a new continent.

After Xiao Yi thought about it this time, Lao Tzu's work is probably going to be buried in the hands of such a family, but Lu Zhou smiled and said: "Well, I am Lu Zhou, hush..."

Xiao Qiang yelled and explained to his parents excitedly, Xiao Yi immediately shouted: "Don't go out and say it! You will die if you say it!"

"Don't tell anyone." Xiao Yi said.

Xiao Qiang was already in extreme shock, Xiao Yi repeatedly emphasized that Xiao Qiang was just oh oh oh, with an expression of not listening at all, Xiao Yi had no choice but to threaten him with his car, saying: "If you dare to speak out, you The car is gone."

Xiao Qiang immediately said: "Absolutely don't say anything! I won't say anything even if I die!"

Lu Zhou: "..."

Xiao Yi knew that using a car as a threat was the most effective, so he dressed up Lu Zhou, asked him to wear a woolen cap, earplugs, a sports coat, trousers and sneakers, and went out.

"Where is there a red envelope?" Lu Zhou asked.

"You don't need to give my parents red envelopes." Xiao Yi opened his younger brother's Santana and said, "You gave me all my money, why do you still have red envelopes?"

Lu Zhou hummed nonchalantly, and Xiao Yi said, "Brother Zhou, I'll take you to play, let's go to the hot spring again on the first day of the new year."
