“Dad, Uncle Fang, Uncle Yang, uncle, uncle, good.” Zhu Chaoyang walked into his father’s office and greeted everyone politely in turn.

Yang Gen Chang smiled and said: “Look at your son more sensible, this is called a reasonable, unlike my son that shit.”

Zhu Yongping touched his son’s head slightly proudly and said, “Son, help uncle pour some water.”

Zhu Chaoyang did as he was told.

Fang Jianping side with the cards in his hand, while looking at him: “Chaoyang, my home Lina this test is only twenty in the class, this score is not necessarily into the second, you sit with her, usually want to teach her ah.”

Zhu Chaoyang nodded: “Well, I will.”

“Uncle Fang thanks you in advance.”

“Uncle Fang, you are too kind.”

Several bosses nodded repeatedly, feeling that a junior high school student so polite, it is rare.

Fang Jianping continued: “Does your father usually give you money?”

“Well… There is.”

“How much did you get this time?”

“This time?” Zhu Chaoyang looked at his father with puzzlement.

Zhu Yongping quickly explained: “The summer vacation is not just beginning, I have not given, wait for you.”

Fang Jianping said, “When did your father give you money last time?”

Zhu Chaoyang bowed his head and said, “The New Year’s Day.”

“How much?”

Zhu Chaoyang answered honestly: “Two thousand yuan.”

A burst of laughter rose from the mouths of his friends.

Zhu Yongping blushing, looking at the cards in his hand, explained: “During the New Year, my hand is not rich, give less.”

Fang Jianping said, “Today, your father won more than 10,000, and then your father will give you the money, right, Yongping?” Anyway, your wife is not here, she doesn’t know the money on the table, and we won’t tell her how much you won, you can just say you lost.”

The other bosses nodded and said that was the way it should be.

Zhu Yongping had no choice but to say: “That must be, son, come to dad here, see how much dad can win today.”

After the game, it was Yang Gen Chang, he was shuffling, there are two people into the office. In front of a woman in her early thirties, brightly dressed, looking very young, wearing an emerald chain on her hand, a white gold chain inlaid with gems around her neck, carrying a leather bag, and a key to a BMW on her finger, followed by a nine-year-old girl, an unhappy look.

“Ouch, I’m tired.” The woman threw her keys on the table and rubbed her arms.

“You’re back so early?” Zhu Yongping saw the two of them, hurriedly stood up, in front of Zhu Chaoyang, his face was full of embarrassment.

“The camera is too old, the battery can not be charged, and it is turned off after taking a few photos, and can only come back early.” This camera can be thrown away, it is four or five years old, go and buy a new one tomorrow.” She threw a digital camera onto a corner of the table with a disgusted look on her face.

“Well, why don’t you go home first? We’ll have a long time to play.”

The woman was not interested in her husband playing cards, but felt that her husband was a little different today, looked carefully, and immediately noticed that there was a little boy sitting behind him, she recognized his son Zhu Chaoyang at a glance, her face immediately floating a sneer, and stared at Zhu Yongping.

Of course, Zhu Chaoyang knew that this woman was the one who seduced his father, and that the little girl was born to this woman and his father. He pursed his lips, turned his head, and sat in his seat at a loss, pretending not to see their mother and daughter.

Yang Gen long stop issuing cards, several friends are smiling at this scene.

The little girl also saw Zhu Chaoyang, ran over curiously, pointed and asked: “Dad, who is this brother?”

“Yes…” Zhu Yongping’s face was embarrassed, hesitated for a moment, and said, “This is Uncle Fang’s nephew, who came to play today.”

“Ha ha! Several other friends playing cards burst into laughter.

Yang Genchang could not help Shouting: “Too talented, really too talented, Zhu Yucai of Aranin City!”

“Hello, you don’t laugh,” Fang Jianping solemnly said, “talented brother said that is right, Chaoyang called me uncle, of course, is my nephew.”

The woman looked a little stunned, and then her face flashed a sneer.

Yang Gen looked at the little girl with a smile on the ground and said, “Zhu Jingjing, I heard that you failed this final exam?”

The little girl shyly hid behind Zhu Yongping, holding her father’s arm in a jiao: “No, no, I was careless and did not do well in the exam…”

Yang Gen Chang pointed to Zhu Chaoyang, said: “You have to learn from your brother ah, he is the first in their school.”

The woman’s face floated a touch of displeasure, but fleeting, pulled the daughter, also echoed and said: “Yes, you have to study hard, to test better than the brother, you know?” She accentuated the words “even better.”

“I know, I know! The little girl looked unhappy.

Fang Jianping said: “Look at my nephew, the clothes are washed white, talented brother, help me take my nephew to buy a few sets of clothes no problem.” Come back and tell me how much you spent later.”

He winked at Zhu Chaoyang, who sat dazed.

“This…” Zhu Yongping was very embarrassed.

“Go ahead, Ajie will take your place,” said Yang Genchang, “Nephew Jianping’s clothes are so old, it is necessary to buy more.” What do you say, sister?” He looked at Zhu Yongping’s wife.

The woman is not good at refuting the face in front of her husband and friends, so she can only say, “Well, just as we are going to buy clothes, Yongping, you can take the sunrise with you.” Jingjing, let’s go to the car first, and then Dad will take us to buy clothes.”

The little girl said happily: “OK, I want to go to the Cotai department store!”

The woman glanced at Zhu Chaoyang again, smiled, and took her daughter out first.

After they went out, Zhu Yongping, encouraged by a group of people, had to say: “Son, dad will take you to buy clothes.”

“Oh,” Zhu Chaoyang stood up, thought for a moment, and shook his head, “Dad, I’m not going. I want to go home early.”

Several other bosses gave him encouragement: “Have said to go, how can not go?” Your father will drive you home later. Go!”

Zhu Chaoyang had to nod slowly.

Zhu Yongping walked out a few steps with his son, stopped again, bowed his head and quietly entrusted: “Your sister has never known that she has a brother, and now she is too young to tell her that your father has been divorced, which has a bad psychological impact on her, um… So I said you’re Uncle Fang’s nephew, and I’ll tell her when she’s older. Wait, you… you Will you call me Uncle for the time being?”

“HMM.” Zhu Chaoyang bowed his head and answered the sentence quietly.

Zhu Yongping took the money on the gambling table, counted it, touched five thousand of it, gave it to his son, and said, “The money is hidden in your pocket, don’t take it out, and don’t tell your aunt that I gave you money.”

“Got it.”

Zhu Yongping apologetically patted his son on the shoulder, pursed his lips and turned to greet his friends. In order to appear calm, he picked up the camera on the table, played with it, and said: “This camera is a little old, no wonder it can’t be taken, it should be thrown away.”

Zhu Chaoyang suddenly remembered Pupu to take photos, hurriedly said: “Dad, you really don’t want this camera?”

“Well, yeah, that doesn’t work.”

“Oh, can I have that?”

“You want a camera? I’ll buy you a new one next time.”

Zhu didn’t expect his father to buy him a camera: “Well, if not, give it to me, I sometimes take pictures for fun.”

Zhu Yongping nodded and readily agreed: “Well, anyway, you are still reading, you do not need a professional camera, you want to take it to play.” I’ll get you a box to put it in.”

From the beginning of sitting on the BMW SUV, Zhu Chaoyang has been nervous.

He sat in the passenger seat, almost bowed his head, did not say a word, occasionally looked up, saw the car mirror, the woman is also looking at him, with a little smile on his face, he quickly lowered his head. The laughter of the three people around him seemed to be from another time and space, and he was completely superfluous.

Soon to the city’s best shopping mall Golden light department store, I do not know whether intentionally or unintentionally, Zhu Yongping and Zhu Chaoyang walk together, the woman with her daughter followed behind, did not keep up, the mother and daughter seem to be whispering.

Zhu Chaoyang walked to a sports brand store and stopped.

Zhu Yongping looked at his son and said, “Do you want to buy sports clothes?”

“I… I’d like to see some sneakers.”

Nowadays, middle school students have the consciousness of keeping up with the Joneses very early, and wearing brand-name sports shoes is very popular. But Zhu Chaoyang never wore them. He always wore ordinary rubber shoes.

He took a fancy to a pair of shoes that many classmates discussed at school, and couldn’t help but say excitedly: “Dad –”

He suddenly realized that Zhu Yongping coughed, blinked at him, and quickly changed his words: “Uncle, I want to see this shoe.”

The waiter immediately asked him his size enthusiastically and took out his shoes for him to try on. Zhu Yongping was waiting next to him, and he was just halfway through trying it when the little girl shouted outside the shop: “Dad, come here, I want to buy that dress!”

“Wait, wait for Brother Chaoyang to try on the shoes.”

“No, I don’t, I want you to come at once! I want you to come at once!” The little girl began to cry.

“Oh, what trouble, yes, yes, I’ll be right there.”

Zhu Chaoyang looked up and saw the woman standing in the female self, talking quietly to her daughter, with a victorious smile on her face. He quickly lowered his head.

“Dad, come here, come here!” The little girl spoke in a long voice.

“Okay, here we go. Have you tried?” Zhu Yongping watched his son try on the shoes and asked anxiously, “Is it the right size?”

“Well, just right.”

“Well, then don’t try, I think this pair is very good, I will buy it.” How much is it, miss?” He rushed out the money.

Zhu Chaoyang stood up, looked at his father because the little girl had become anxious, pursed his lips,

Then said: “I bought shoes, clothes and pants next time buy, I go home first.”

“Well… I’ll take you later.”

“No, I’ll just take the bus myself.”

“In this case… All right, then.” Zhu Yongping also hopes to end today’s embarrassment sooner.

Zhu Chaoyang stood up, carrying the old shoes packed up, carrying the old camera in the box, silently walking towards the door of the mall. Zhu Yongping went to his wife and daughter, explained that Zhu Chaoyang had gone in advance, we continue to stroll and so on.

When Zhu Chaoyang was almost at the door, he looked back. The woman was looking at him with a smile on her face, and the little girl was staring at him with a very angry look, and then made a face and looked at him.

Zhu Chaoyang clenched his fists, clenched his teeth, and walked out of the mall.
