Chapter 182: Keeping pace with the times
When Xiao Chuanqi saw his father's expression, he did not dare to anger him too much. Finally, he said: "Dad, the world is changing very quickly now, and you are not old. Your concepts must keep up with the times..."
Xiao Zhihua was stunned for a minute before saying, "Are you really a sworn brother with a master of the Dragon and Tiger?"
"Yeah!" Xiao Chuanqi nodded and confirmed, "The boss called Zhao Yunfei, from Fengming City, Hanning Province, he had just broken through to the Dragon and Tiger Level; the second one was Zhao Chunlei, from Henan, and a master of Dragon and Leopard Ninth Stage; the third one was Han Tuo, who was from the same village as Zhao Yunfei, and his skills were lower and he was at the entry level; I am the fourth one."
"It's actually true!" Xiao Zhihua murmured.
Xiao Chuanqi nodded and said, "They may come to our house to recognize their relatives during the Mid-Autumn Festival."
"Oh?" Xiao Zhihua couldn't help but nodded and said, "Okay, welcome them."
Xiao Chuanqi thought for a while and said, "Dad, should I go see my grandfather? Or, you go with me?"
"Okay, let's go now." Xiao Zhihua said as he stood up, pointed to the two bottles of Moutai on the round table and said, "Pick these two bottles of wine for your grandfather."
Xiao Chuanqi said: "Don't take these two bottles, there are still them in my car."
"Car?" Xiao Zhihua said in surprise, "Someone drove you back? Why don't you let the driver come in?"
Xiao Chuanqi said honestly: "I drove back by myself."
"Driving by yourself?" Xiao Zhihua was even more surprised, stopped and stared at his son with wide eyes, "Do you have a driver's license? When did you learn it?"
Xiao Chuanqi felt that his identity as a lieutenant colonel in a special forces was better not to tell his family that it was difficult for his parents to keep it secret in the village, so he had to make up a lie casually and say, "I used my relationship to get a car book."
"You can rely on relationships if you are not old enough?"
"As long as there is someone, there is nothing that cannot be done!" Xiao Chuanqi's tone was quite sophisticated.
When Xiao Zhihua heard this, he stopped making a sound and opened the door and came out. Xiao Chuanqi followed him.
When I arrived outside the door, I saw a brand new black off-road vehicle parked.
Xiao Zhihua walked forward, reached out and touched the car door, and asked, "What brand of car is this?"
Xiao Zhiqi used the car key to open the rear door remotely and replied: "This car is called ey..."
"ey? Is it an imported car?" Although Xiao Zhihua has a car book, the car book is basically abandoned and has never driven a car since he passed the exam.
Xiao Chuanqi explained: "It is a domestic car and a high-end brand under Great Wall."
Xiao Zhihua walked around the car and saw two large boxes of Moutai liquor in the back box. He frowned and asked, "You didn't buy this car, right?"
Since my dad asked, Xiao Chuanqi had to tell the truth: "Well, it's mine. I took an apprentice and he bought it for me."
Xiao Zhihua couldn't help but skip Xiao Chuanqi's eyes and said sarcastically: "You are so good at making money!"
Xiao Chuanqi took out two bottles of Moutai, put them on the back seat of the car, and said to his father in a flattering manner: "Dad, you can try driving one. If you like it, I will leave this car for you?"
Xiao Zhihua blinked: "I have long forgotten how to drive..."
Xiao Xuanqi opened the cab door and pushed his dad in without saying a word, saying, "This is an automatic car, easy to drive, you can try it." As he said that, he sat in the passenger seat.
"How to do this?" Sitting in the driver's seat, Xiao Zhihua looked at the brand new and bright instrument and various buttons, and was at a loss.
Xiao Zhiqi explained the start button, how to use automatic transmission one by one.
Although Xiao Zhihua learned to get off the car, he had never driven a car, but he often drove a farm tractor. The basic operation of the agricultural vehicle was similar to that of a car, with only one shell missing. Moreover, Xiao Zhiqi's car was automatic, and there was no coordination between the clutch and the throttle, so it was easier to operate.
Xiao Zhihua slowly started the car and was in a good mood. He immediately forgot about Xiao Chuanqi's confrontation with him.
The car parked at the gate of the village committee. Xiao Zhihua instructed Xiao Chuanqi: "If your grandfather scolds you a few words, just listen, don't talk back if you don't explain."
Xiao Zhiqi agreed.
The father and the other man got out of the car with wine.
In the village chief’s office, the old man was reading a newspaper. He saw Xiao Zhihua and Xiao Chuanqi entering the house, and his eyes stayed on Xiao Chuanqi for a few more seconds.
Xiao Zhihua smiled apologized and said, "Dad, Xiaoqi is back to see you!"
"Grandpa is in good health?" Xiao Chuanqi put two bottles of Moutai on the table. This sentence was considered as a blessing to grandpa.
Xiao Zhonghan folded the newspaper and put it aside, looked at Xiao Chuanqi, and asked, "Has Xiao Qi started?"
"Well, I'm getting started!" Xiao Chuanqi tried his best to hide his skills, but he was still seen by Xiao Zhonghan.
Xiao Zhonghan nodded and said, "It's good to get started, and you have to work harder in the future!"
"I will work hard!" Xiao Chuanqi agreed.
"Take time to see your second uncle. It is better to resolve enemies than to make a fortune, let alone your second uncle!" Xiao Zhonghan's tone was quite gentle.
Xiao Zhihua hurriedly said, "When the Mid-Autumn Festival, I will buy two boxes of good mooncakes and two bottles of good wine, and let Xiaoqi go there."
Xiao Zhonghan nodded and instructed: "You can go with you then."
"Oh!" Xiao Zhihua agreed.
Next, I talked about Xiao Chuanqi's learning, but I didn't mention Xiao Chuanqi's external martial arts, which made Xiao Zhihua and Xiao Chuanqi breathe a sigh of relief.
After leaving the village committee, Xiao Zhihua's mood obviously went up another step, and sat in the driver's seat and said, "This car is easy to drive. Let's go around outside the village to see how the sweet potatoes in our field grow, and then pull some sweet potato leaves back to feed the pigs."
When Xiao Chuanqi saw that his father was in a very good mood, he was naturally happy. The two of them drove to their own fields and pinched many sweet potato leaves. On the way, they met neighbors, and Xiao Zhihua stopped the car to say hello, enjoying everyone's envious eyes.
It was noon in a blink of an eye, and Zheng Lingfei made a large table of dishes. During the meal, he heard Xiao Zhihua keep talking about the car. Zheng Lingfei always thought that Xiao Chuanqi had come back by taxi. After asking, she realized that her son had bought a car, so she hurried to the outside to see. Like Xiao Zhihua, she circled around the car, couldn't let go, and then came back happily, praising the car for being grand and beautiful.
Since Xiao Chuanqi has successfully started, Xiao Zhihua planned to let Xiao Chuanqi participate in the clan competition and clean up the insults his son suffered for not being able to get started.
The clan comparison of the Xiao family is not a violent confrontation like the ones written in some novels. Speaking of which, the clan comparison of the Xiao family is quite civilized.
There are three categories of family ratios.
The first item is a wrestling arm.
However, their so-called arm wrestling is different from ordinary people. It is mainly about competing for true strength, rather than wrist strength and arm strength.
