Pick up the car

  Zhang Jingen had just cursed someone in secret, and Qi Bing, who had been hiding in his room because of the unpleasant smell on **'s body, finally came out. He looked at the direction where the Hummer disappeared and asked cautiously: "Brother, who is that guy? Is he a gangster or a soldier?"

  Zhang Jin lost his smile: "What is this about being a triad and a soldier? How would I know those people? He's just a delivery guy!"

  Even if it's obvious that Zhang Jing is just joking, Qi Bing can't do anything about this stubborn brother, and can only mutter to himself: "Cut it out, the postal system may be rich, but it's not possible for them to give mailmen Hummers, who are they trying to cheat?"

  Zhang Jin pulled out the recliner from the corner of the living room on the first floor, placed it under the pagoda tree, and casually chatted: "Maybe this guy is the leader's younger brother-in-law, in that case, it wouldn't be strange for the unit to provide such a car! Now there are many leaders who love their 'unit' like their home, using their own 'family' money to buy a car for their younger brother-in-law, isn't that a bit excessive?" After finishing speaking, Zhang Jin had already arranged the recliner and no longer paid attention to Qi Bing's continued questioning, comfortably lying down on the recliner.

  Seeing Zhang Jin already lying on the chaise longue in his most comfortable posture, he narrowed his eyes and pointed to the direction of the room with his fingers. Qi Bing also very consciously repeated what he should do every day in this situation - moving out several things from the house one by one, including tea tables, tea sets, cigarettes, and laptops.

  Zhang Jin cooks and helps with weight loss, Qi Bing does chores, this was agreed upon when Qi Bing first arrived.

  Plug in the electric kettle and turn it on, pull out a cigarette and light it up, hold the laptop in my arms and open the webpage. Zhang Jin has once again entered the 'degenerate' state of life that has been ongoing since moving to Haiwazi Village.

  Qī Biāo then took out a recliner from the house and placed it on the other side of the coffee table, lying down comfortably with a copy of "New Concept English" in hand.

  In Zhang Jin's backyard, which was several mu in size, the vegetable garden, the large Chinese toon trees, the fish pond and more than a dozen fruit trees that were not yet old enough to bear fruit, made the whole garden look exquisite and even more tranquil. Otherwise, the group of freeloaders who had seen and experienced many things wouldn't have been so astonished and kept praising it repeatedly.

  But with Zhang Jin and Qi Bing, these two big guys lying in the courtyard, and both of them are in a boneless state, lounging there, which makes the whole garden thoroughly imbued with a lazy atmosphere, making people who see it unable to lift their spirits.

  During his stay in Haiwazi Village, Zhang Jin spent more time lying on the chaise longue than doing chores like cooking, feeding chickens and fish, planting vegetables and watering them combined. The only difference was the location of the chaise longue.

  When there is no sun or when the sun is not strong, Zhang Jin likes to lie on the second floor balcony, blowing sea breeze and watching the sea view.

  When the sun comes out and the heat is intense, Zhang Jin likes to hide in the shade of the big locust tree in the backyard, feeling the wind blowing over the hall, looking at the fish pond and vegetable garden.

  When it rained outside, Zhang Jin would place a recliner in the hall on the second floor, listening to the sound of rain and waves, watching the rainy scene.

  Affected by Zhang Jin, this model, Qi Bing also 'very talented' to his lifestyle. From lazy to diligent is difficult, but from lazy to even lazier is very easy.

  …………

  Let's not mention how comfortable Zhang Jin and his brother are for now.

  On the other hand, after finishing his temporary job as a mailman, **made a phone call as soon as he left Ha Ma Village. As soon as the call was answered, **hurriedly said in a respectful tone: "Miss Liu, I've taken care of the task you asked me to do. What else would you like me to do?"

  "Hmm... did he make any demands for compensation?" came Liu Xianxian's unhurried voice over the phone.

  "No." The answer was very concise.

  "Nothing?" Liu Xianxian seemed puzzled by Zhang Jin's attitude of not even wanting compensation for his spiritual loss, and after a moment of contemplation, she continued: "Although he didn't ask for anything, we can't just let it go like this. After all, the mistake was on our part. How about this? I found out from his records that he received a summons from the Hong Kong court for 'dangerous driving' and 'disturbing public order', and the traffic police department in Shenzhen also issued him a penalty notice. You go help him resolve this matter, and consider it as our compensation to him!"

  "Yes!"

  On the afternoon of the day when the "courier" was sent away, Zhang Jin received a message that the "Shenzhen-Hong Kong transfer ticket and penalty notice were cancelled, and the traffic violation and escape responsibility were exempt from prosecution and punishment". When he first saw this message, Zhang Jin couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. However, thinking back to the attitude of the person who came in the morning, he quickly let it go. In this era, so-called rules and laws are just something that can be manipulated at will in many people's eyes. With Liu Yifen's current power, which is only showing a small part of her strength, his little matter was just a word away from being settled.

  "It can't be seen, but this beautiful Liu is still very particular about doing things! I'll give a compliment first." After lightly and casually giving a compliment to the unknown whereabouts of Liu Xianxian, Zhang Jin walked out the door with a square step, heading towards Old Man Niu's house in the village.

  Mr. Niu's family opened the only grocery store in the village. Every Friday, Mr. Niu's son would drive their small van to Deep City to stock up on goods. The day after tomorrow is Friday, Zhang Jin needs to go and greet Mr. Niu's family, and then hitch a ride with them into the city.

  This Haiwoshi Village is great in every way, it's just too remote and inconvenient without a car, so I'd better hurry to the traffic police brigade to get my car back.

  The process of Zhang Jin picking up the car was very smooth, and the police officers were also very gentle and friendly. The 'serve the people' smile was extremely sincere, almost to the point of being flattering. When Zhang Jin drove out of the parking lot, there were even four or five police officers seeing him off in the distance, which made Zhang Jin's swagger quite impressive.

  Until Zhang Jin's car drove away, the police officers who saw him off finally put down their hypocritical smiles and showed their true faces. They simultaneously spat out a mouthful of saliva. After the uniform action, one of the police officers asked another officer next to him in confusion and discontent: "Boss, why did we let him go like that? We even smiled and talked to him, if we had fined him heavily, our wallets would have been at least one layer thicker."

  The officer glared at him fiercely, "Fine? This is Director Liang of the Municipal Bureau personally calling to inform us. Do you dare to fine them? If you fine them today, don't even mention whether you can put the money in your own pocket, tomorrow they can strip you of your skin. Being suspended from duty is the lightest punishment, it's uncertain whether you'll be investigated or not."

  Several police officers who were equally perplexed couldn't help but shrink their heads, and another one swallowed his saliva and said: "Boss, what's the background of this guy? Can he make Director Liang speak up in person?"

  The officer known as "the head" shook his head and said, "Who knows? Maybe it's some family's young master!"

  "The prince?" The first officer to speak shook his head, "I don't think so. From my experience, princes look at us through their noses, but this guy has been looking at us with his eyes the whole time. Besides, which prince drives a broken-down car like this? Even if they occasionally try to be low-key, the things inside would have been replaced."

  "It's also possible that it's some rich woman or a big shot upstairs who is supporting a young pretty boy."

  "Is he still so young and inexperienced? I'm stronger than him!"

  "Who knows if they have real skills? You know, those female leaders' desires are quite strong."

  These people's police became more and more overbearing as they spoke, finally snickering and whispering to each other in hushed tones.

  …………

  After leaving the parking lot, Zhang Jin did not drive home directly, but instead took out his phone and dialed a number.

  "Mom, it's me, Xiaojin! Isn't this the day I just happened to return to the city? I was thinking of going home to grab a meal, do you have time in the afternoon? Are you welcome or not?" Because of the entanglement with Ye Hong a few days ago, the distance between Zhang Jin and Ye Hong had been restored. Although it was still unknown how things would go between them in the future, when Zhang Jin called out "Mom" this time, he was much less hesitant than before.

  On the other end of the phone, Ye's mother heard Zhang Jin's words and laughed so hard that her mouth couldn't close: "Welcome, of course welcome! Little Jin is coming, no matter what time it is, Mom always has time, and welcomes him!" This old lady hadn't seen Zhang Jin since he divorced Ye Hong, and she had been thinking about it a lot. However, because she was afraid that Zhang Jin would feel awkward about his identity, she didn't dare to strongly ask him to come visit her. Now that Zhang Jin took the initiative to come over, how could she possibly push him away?

  After putting down the phone with a smile, Ye Mama tidied up a bit and then pulled out the shopping cart. Ye Mama knew that Zhang Jin liked to eat her own 'crab fried rice cake' the most, although it's not the best season for crabs now, but since he came all the way here, she couldn't let him down.
