Zhou Haidong's family.

Zhou Haidong is not young, and he was 36 when he was with Li Dong. He is 40 after the Chinese New Year this year.

When he is middle-aged and has a high position, he has too many things to do. Zhou Haidong has not had much time to exercise in the past two years, and his body is slightly fat.

He got married late and worked as a soldier for eight years. He had only saved enough money for his marriage after several years of retirement.

Even so, he was not doing well. If he hadn't been short of money, he wouldn't have defected to Li Dong and was used as a tough guy.

However, in recent years, the Zhou family's life has begun to get better.

Especially Zhou Haidong became the Minister of Supervision, and relying solely on salary and bonuses, it is enough to buy a villa in a year.

Of course, Zhou Haidong did not buy a villa, but bought a duplex building, which was not too eye-catching.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, there were many Zhou family members.

Zhou Haidong's parents and father-in-law and mother-in-law both came here to celebrate the New Year.

On the first day of the New Year, no one went out, and the whole family got together. Those who watched TV and those who played cards had a good atmosphere.

Zhou Haidong's wife is much younger than him and is also from the countryside.

Although Zhou Haidong has developed in recent years, his wife still retains the simplicity of rural people, and does not have the ostentatiousness of nouveau riche. She is very low-key and simple.

Zhou Haidong works outside, while she concentrates on taking care of her children at home.

The couple has only one daughter, they are not old and are only 8 years old after the New Year.

There are many people in the family, and Zhou’s wife did not participate in playing cards. Instead, she brought tea and water to everyone and took care of the children.

Seeing her husband sitting aside watching TV, Zhou's wife couldn't help asking: "Haidong, won't you go to greet Mr. Li?"

Zhou Haidong smiled and said, "I won't go today. Mr. Li finally went home to rest. Let's go tomorrow."

"Well, don't forget to bring the things I bought tomorrow. It's not appropriate to have empty hands."

"Forget it, Mr. Li is not short of these things, and I take things twice as long as I take them back, which is not suitable."

When the couple talked about Li Dong, the others couldn't help but prick up their ears.

The whole family is proud of Zhou Haidong working for Li Dong.

Especially Zhou Haidong has also worked as a bodyguard for Li Dong, which is a topic that many people are interested in.

His brother-in-law is not very old. He just went to high school and saw his brother-in-law talking to his sister, he couldn't help but curiously say, "Brother-in-law, have you really been a bodyguard for Li Dong? Isn't it very dangerous to be a bodyguard? Have you ever encountered any dangerous things? Let's talk to us..."

Zhou’s wife couldn’t help but scolded, “What are the kids asking? Also, don’t call their names, be polite.”

Her younger brother curled his lips and said, "The person is not here. Besides, we all call him that, or call him Brother Pao..."

"This kid!"

Everyone couldn't help laughing, and Zhou Haidong also said with a hilarious smile: "Don't talk nonsense, just call others. Don't call this name in the future, call Brother Dong or something else.

Mr. Li hates this nickname the most, whoever says he is anxious with him?"

"Why? I think it's pretty good..."

Everyone was talking, and the doorbell rang.

Zhou's wife said curiously: "Who is here today? Don't be your subordinates, right?"

"Go open the door and take a look. Those who bring things are not allowed to come in. It's like this every time, and the New Year is not quiet."

Zhou Haidong shook his head slightly. Since he became the Minister of Supervision, more people have come to visit him.

The Minister of Supervision in the distance is not only a senior executive, but also one of the members of the board of directors, and one of the top few people.

Today, there are not many members of the board of directors in the Far East, and everyone is extremely important.

In addition, it is a regulatory department, which makes people pay more attention to it.

There are many people who come to the door to give gifts, ask for relationships, and ask for mercy almost every month.

Upon hearing this, Zhou's wife walked towards the door and opened the door directly.

As a result, as soon as the door opened, Zhou's wife was stunned, looking surprised.

...

Outside the door.

Li Dong smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, don't you know me anymore?"

"Mr. Li...Mr. Li, why are you...?"

Zhou's wife was so nervous that she turned around and shouted: "Haidong, Mr. Li is here, come quickly..."

When Zhou Haidong, who was sitting, heard this, he immediately jumped up and hurriedly walked towards the door.

The voices of the others in the room instantly stopped, and they all hurriedly got up and looked at the door.

Outside the door, Li Dong saw that Zhou Haidong's wife forgot to let him enter the door, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm not an outsider, stop shouting, can you let me enter the door first?"

As soon as these words were said, Zhou's wife suddenly turned red and she said at a loss: "Sorry, sorry, Mr. Li, come in quickly, I..."

"Just kidding, sister-in-law, don't be nervous."

Li Dong was talking and was about to change his shoes and enter the door. At this time, Zhou Haidong also arrived. Seeing this, he hurriedly said, "Mr. Li, you don't need to change your shoes. Why are you here? Come in and sit down quickly.

Xiaohui, make tea for Mr. Li, I have good tea upstairs..."

"Okay, okay, I'll get it right away..."

Zhou's wife responded and hurriedly ran upstairs.

Li Dong changed his shoes and walked in with a gift.

Putting the gift down casually, Li Dong glanced at everyone in the room and smiled and said, "Sorry, I'm sorry, I suddenly came to visit and disturbed me.

Is this just New Year? Let’s take a look at Lao Zhou.

Everyone doesn’t have to worry about me, you guys play with you, I’ll talk to Lao Zhou for a few words and I’ll leave later.”

"Mr. Li, come to see me. Isn't this a slap in the face?

If I had known, I would have gone to greet you today. I thought that there must be many people on your side today, so I wanted to wait and go tomorrow..."

Zhou Haidong explained, Li Dong waved his hand and smiled, "It's okay, it's all the same."

We have known each other for so many years, and it is the same for whoever comes to each other's family.

Having said that, I really haven't been here before you moved here."

While talking, Li Dong waved to Zhou Haidong's daughter and smiled: "Guoguo, don't you know you Uncle Li?"

Zhou Haidong's daughter was a little shy, but she still walked over and whispered: "Hello Uncle Li."

"I haven't seen each other for a while, and my size has gone a long way.

I forgot to bring you a gift when I came here. I will give you this one. I will bring you fun next time uncle."

Li Dong took off a string of sandalwood beads on his hand and put them on the little girl's hand.

Zhou Haidong saw it and hurriedly said, "You can't do it, Mr. Li, this is given to you by Mr. Shen. How can you give it to your child? Take it back quickly..."

"It's okay, Shen Qian likes to give these things. I am a big man, and it's a burden to wear it.

Just so happened that I gave it to Guoguo, and Shen Qian turned around and said to me."

Li Dong laughed, greeted the others a few times, and finally said, "Old Zhou, I haven't been here before, let's go upstairs and have a few chats."

"Okay, I'll take you up and have a look."

"Well, everyone doesn't care about us anymore. When I came, I suddenly became quiet and felt uncomfortable.

Lao Zhou and I have a life-long friendship, so my family are so polite to me.”

Li Dong smiled and comforted her for a while before walking upstairs with Lao Zhou.

Everyone took a breath after he left.

Zhou Haidong's sister couldn't help but pull her niece and whispered: "Guoguo, do you know him?"

The little girl nodded quickly and whispered: "I have been to our house before. I am my father's boss, but I have brought a lot of delicious food.

He just called his brother and he wouldn't let me call him uncle."

"I didn't expect that my brother was really valued. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Li Dong came to see me personally. It's so amazing!"

Sister Zhou Haidong sighed, although she knew that her elder brother was a senior leader in Yuanfang Group, how many people could Li Donglai come to visit on the first day of the Lunar New Year?

From this point of view, you can know how much Li Dong attaches importance to his elder brother.

Everyone looked happy and no one continued playing cards. They all got together and started chatting in a low voice, fearing that the sound would be louder, so they disturbed Li Dong above.

...

upstairs.

After taking the teacup handed by Zhou’s wife, Li Dong smiled and said, “Sister-in-law, don’t be busy. I will chat with Lao Zhou for a while before leaving. I’m embarrassed to be so polite.”

"No, there is nothing good at home. If I had known you were coming, I should have bought some good tea."
