Chapter 569 Threats, Warnings

Back home, Zhou Chen found that the light was still on in his mother Li Suhua's room, so he walked over.

The lights in the room were dim. It turned out that Li Suhua did not turn on the electric lights, but used the kerosene lamps he brought from home.

Zhou Chen walked in and saw that Zheng Juan was there, Li Suhua was knitting a sweater, and Zheng Juan was watching and studying, the two of them were still talking quietly, they didn't notice Zhou Chen entered the room at all.

Seeing the two of them concentrating on knitting sweaters, Zhou Chen coughed lightly.

"Cough cough."

The two people who were busy were startled by Zhou Chen's coughing, and Li Suhua even scolded: "You child, do you walk without sound? Are you trying to scare us to death?"

Zhou Chen smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that I have no voice, it's that you are too serious, you didn't even hear me open the door, and you didn't even notice when I approached."

Zheng Juan stood up and said embarrassedly: "Bingkun, I just learned knitting with my mother, so I didn't hear you coming back. Just wait, I'll get you water to wash your feet."

"Need not."

Zhou Chen held Zheng Juan down and asked her to sit down, "Don't worry about washing your feet, I'll talk about it later, Mom, are you knitting Zhou Rong again?"

"That's your sister."

Li Suhua reprimanded dissatisfied.

"Yes, you are right, it is my sister."

Zhou Chen didn't argue, but asked: "You have knit several sweaters for her in the past few years, which are enough for her to wear for several years. My two sweaters are about to be broken, and I don't see you knitting them for me again." Two pieces."

Li Suhua said: "Can it be the same? You are by my side. I will knit for you whenever I want. Besides, Juan'er is learning from me now. When she learns, let her knit for you." You knit, don't bother me anymore."

"Mom, you're too realistic. Although I'm married, you can't ignore me. What Juaner weaves is what Juaner weaves, and what you weave is what you weave. That's different, okay. "

"It's just you who can say, that's enough, Mommy Ganming will weave a new one for you. You're an adult, and you're still competing with your sister for favor."

"Then she is older than me. They say that children who stay with their parents all day are not as good as those who are far outside. Now I understand the meaning of this sentence. No matter how filial I am at home, you think the most. The ones who are still outside are Big Brother and Zhou Rong."

Li Suhua put down the wool in his hand, pointed at Zhou Chenxun and said, "Nonsense, in Mom's heart, the three of you are all the same, you are all Mom's heart."

Watching the conversation between her husband and her mother-in-law, Zheng Juan kept smiling. She liked the atmosphere very much, which made her feel at home.

"Kun'er, you've come back late these days, is it because the work unit is busy?"

Li Suhua asked suddenly.

Zheng Juan also looked at Zhou Chen curiously. Zhou Chen used to come back for dinner, but these days, he hasn't come back for dinner for several consecutive days, and he always comes back very late.

Zhou Chen said casually: "I'm a bit busy. Recently, the agency asked me to write more poems and articles. Sometimes I would ride around after get off work, looking for inspiration. I've been bored at home, so it's hard to get inspiration."

Upon hearing that it was necessary for work, Li Suhua immediately said seriously: "Since you are very busy, then don't always think about your home. Just like you said, go shopping and look for some kind of inspiration."

Zheng Juan asked softly: "Bingkun, are you tired recently?"

Zhou Chen said with a smile: "Tired but not tired. Writing poems and articles can also make money. If we earn more money, we will buy a big house of our own in the future, so we don't have to rent a house all the time."

Speaking of the house, Li Suhua began to complain again.

"You kid can make a fuss. Our flat-screen house is so good. You insist on moving here. How long have you lived here? How long do you want to buy a house again? Spending money like you like you, earning more money Too much money is not enough for you to lose, Juan'er, you have to take good care of him and make him less troublesome."

Zheng Juan just responded with a smile. In fact, she never thought about controlling Zhou Chen. She felt that her husband was a man of culture and the most capable. No matter what Zhou Chen said, she would listen to it. She was only responsible for listening. , not responsible for management.

Zhou Chen said with a smile: "Mom, you can't help what you said, so let me ask you, is it cleaner and more convenient to live here than living in text?"

Li Suhua rolled his eyes: "Is there any comparison? Although this place is very convenient and clean, the only downside is that I can't see my old neighbors, and I don't even have anyone to talk to."

Zhou Chen knew that this was Li Suhua's heart knot, so he persuaded: "Mom, there are many neighbors around our house, but you just don't go out to make friends. Juan'er is also at home. During the day, let Juan'er take you outside for a walk." , maybe you can meet new friends.”

Li Suhua said: "How old am I? I still know new friends. I just thought, when I have nothing to do during the day, let Juan'er go with me to the optical film and talk to your Aunt Qiao and the others. Satisfied."

"That's no problem. In this way, give me some time. I'll buy Juan'er a bicycle. When I teach Juan'er to ride a bicycle, I'll let her take you wherever you want to go."

When Zheng Juan heard that Zhou Chen wanted to buy a bicycle for herself, she waved her hands in shock: "No, you don't need to buy me a bicycle, Bingkun, I don't know how to ride."

"Didn't I tell you, I'll teach you."

"But I'm stupid and timid. I'm afraid I won't be able to learn."

Zhou Chen doesn't agree with timidity at all. Having watched TV dramas, he knows that Zheng Juan is not timid.

Even when encountering major events, she can keep calm most of the time. For the sake of her husband, she even dares to slap the big bear. This is not something a timid woman can do.

"It's okay, if you can't learn it once, let's learn it a few more times. Believe me, you will learn it soon."

Seeing that her husband had such confidence in her, Zheng Juan was also a little moved.

It would be a lie to say that she doesn't want to learn to ride a bicycle. In this day and age, no one wants a bicycle of their own, but she is afraid of causing trouble to Zhou Chen and wasting money.

Li Suhua also agreed from the side: "Juan'er, you can listen to Kun'er about this matter. Learning to ride a bicycle will be convenient in the future. If something happens, we don't need Kun'er to run back and forth, we can solve it ourselves."

Seeing that her mother-in-law agreed, Zheng Juan nodded obediently.

Zhou Chen glanced at the kerosene lamp on the table, and said, "Mom, don't you have electric lights at home? Don't use kerosene lamps anymore. This thing is not good for your eyes, and it's also poisonous. If you use it for a long time, it will be harmful to your body." it is good."

Li Suhua didn't take it seriously: "We have been using kerosene lamps for decades, and we haven't seen any health problems. Electric lights are a waste of money, and kerosene lamps are more convenient and save money."

"It's better to spend some money than hurt your eyes. Mom, look at your eyes. Have you seen things more and more blurry recently?"

"As I get older, of course my eyes get blurry."

"Your Eye Blurring Has No Direct Relationship to Age or Size."

Zhou Chen was very speechless. As people get older, their eyes will indeed weaken, but Li Suhua's situation is different. She is caused by purely acquired factors.

"Juan'er, put away the kerosene lamp tomorrow. Without my permission, you are not allowed to use the kerosene lamp for Mom again."

"what?"

Zheng Juan suddenly panicked, she said unexpectedly, how did it come to her, she had to listen to Zhou Chen's words, but she didn't have the guts to let her take care of her mother-in-law, she hesitated and didn't know what to do. how to answer.

Li Suhua stared at Zhou Chen: "Don't make things difficult for Juan'er, don't you just use electric lights, see if you can."

Zhou Chen chuckled a few times, then pulled Zheng Juan back to the room.

A few days later, at the place where Zhou Chen and Du Laosan met last time, there were a few bums wandering around.

These bums were arranged by Du Laosan to monitor them. Although Du Laosan promised Zhou Chen to help get tickets, he was not a good person.

Zhou Chen knew him, but he didn't know who Zhou Chen was, which made him feel very uneasy, and Zhou Chen gave him so much money all at once, which made him surprised and greedy at the same time.

It's just that he didn't know how to find Zhou Chen, so he used the simplest method and arranged for people to follow him here. At the same time, according to Zhou Chen's request, he placed three standing bricks, waiting for Zhou Chen to appear.

It's a pity that he waited for several nights, but he didn't wait for Zhou Chen to appear, which made him start to doubt Zhou Chen.

Du Laosan was hiding in the shadows with an ugly expression, why didn't that person show up?Is 300 yuan really so indifferent to him?
When he was thinking, neither he nor his people noticed that several children suddenly ran past the alley, and one of them even glanced into the alley.

"Thank you, kid."

Zhou Chen, who was wearing a mask, handed a few pieces of candy to the little girl in front of him.

The little girl jumped up happily: "Thank you uncle."

"You're welcome, let's go play."

"Goodbye uncle."

After the little girl bounced away, Zhou Chen turned around and left.

Although Du Laosan is a little gangster who can't get on the stage, he still seems to be a bit alert. He actually placed bricks for several days in a row to attract him to appear.

Fortunately, he was very vigilant. He didn't show up after seeing it for the first time, but observed it for a few days in a row. Otherwise, he might really be fooled by this guy.

Sure enough, it is impossible to underestimate anyone, even these punks who are at the bottom of society.

He didn't wait for Zhou Chen to come for several days in a row, Du Laosan also slowly let go of his vigilance, he was still thinking about whether to help Zhou Chen get tickets, he was not sure whether Zhou Chen would appear again in the future, Zhou Chen did not If there is no news, he doesn't dare to get tickets with much fanfare.

300 yuan is really a lot, but he still wants to earn more, so he hopes in his heart that Zhou Chen will appear.

Just after he came back from drinking with his friends, Du Laosan staggered towards the house, but when he reached a dark alley, a hand suddenly stretched out and pulled him into the darkness.

"Ah, um..."

Just as Du Laosan was about to scream, his mouth was covered and his neck was also strangled. The huge force made him extremely painful, and he began to twist his body instinctively.

"Du Laosan, I advise you not to stir and shout, otherwise I don't mind letting you leave something behind."

Upon hearing this familiar voice, Du Laosan's body froze for a moment, then stopped struggling and let out a whining sound.

Zhou Chen let go of Du Laosan's hands, and after Du Laosan was let go, he quickly stepped back a few steps, and then looked at Zhou Chen in the dark in horror.

"It's you."

"It's me, haven't you been wanting to see me these days? Why, now that you see me, you're scared instead?"

The look of fear on Du Laosan's face was even worse. Did this person know what he did these days?But why didn't he find anything unusual?
Zhou Chen sneered and said: "If you can put your cleverness into doing things for me, you might have already got what I want, but you naively want to find me and find out my identity. It's pretty big."

Du Laosan suppressed the fear in his heart and said: "Brother, I can't blame me completely. I don't know who you are, so I dare not act. Who knows if you are setting me up?"

"Hmph, what do you think is worthy of my trap?"

Zhou Chen's tone was very disdainful, and he turned to warn: "Mr. Du, what I asked you to do for me was not because I couldn't do it, but because I didn't want to waste that energy, but you took my money, but you didn't care about it. Do things for me, just now it was a warning, if there is another time, I promise you will regret it."

"Are you threatening me?" Du Laosan looked gloomy.

"Yes, I'm threatening you. If I can find you without anyone noticing, I can use the same method to make you disappear. If you don't believe me, you can try."

Du Laosan's face became even uglier when he heard the words. Thinking of Zhou Chen's sudden attack just now, if the huge force really hit him hard, he might really be unable to resist.

"Where did this guy come from?"

He wasn't sure if Zhou Chen really dared to kill him, but he was old and young, so he couldn't afford to bet.

"Brother, I was wrong about what happened before. I apologize. Starting tomorrow, I will do my best to help you get tickets."

"This is the best way, don't worry, I'm just asking for votes, I don't want to hurt anyone, as long as you help me do things honestly, I guarantee that your benefits will be indispensable."

Du Laosan asked hesitantly: "Brother, let me ask a question, why do you want so many tickets?"

Zhou Chen snorted coldly: "Don't ask if you shouldn't ask."

"Okay, blame me for talking too much, I won't ask."

Du Laosan guessed in his heart that he felt that Zhou Chen must not be alone, and there must be someone behind him, otherwise, who would be idle and have nothing to do, buying so many tickets, some of which are hard to buy with money.

"I will come to you again in fifteen days. If you can't give me a satisfactory answer, then there is no need for us to cooperate."

"Hey, brother, I..."

Seeing Zhou Chen turn and leave, Du Laosan eagerly wanted to stop, but Zhou Chen ignored him at all and quickly disappeared into the darkness.

Du Laosan was also surprised when he saw Zhou Chen climbed over the wall and disappeared quickly. This person is not only strong, but also very fast.

After being warned by Zhou Chen, and because it was profitable, Du Laosan no longer hesitated, and soon started scalping work.

But it didn't take long for Du Laosan to run into trouble, because after a few days, they only received one bicycle ticket, and they didn't get any of the other precious tickets that Zhou Chen wanted.

"Third brother, we have already found out. The reason why we have not received it recently is because someone is robbing us of business."

The younger brother who was hanging out with Du Laosan reported to Du Laosan the reason why he couldn't receive the items.

Although there are all kinds of things in the black market, there are all kinds of things, but they are not available anytime and anywhere, and sometimes it depends on the opportunity.

For example, when big factories pay wages at the beginning of the month, there are the most ticket sellers at that time, and during the period when the government issues tickets, the most people sell tickets on the black market. Normally, there are very few ticket sellers. .

As soon as Du Laosan heard that someone ruined his good deeds, he immediately burst into anger: "In my territory, there are still people robbing us of business, who are they?"

The younger brother immediately replied, "It's the water cripple."

"It's him."

Du Laosan's eyes turned hard, "Shui Laizi" means water flows by itself, because he is lame, so the people on the road call him "Shui Laizi".

"This guy is usually just playing around. When did he dare to accept these high-end tickets?"

"I don't know, third brother, do you think it's possible that he deliberately spoiled our good deeds and wanted to steal business from us?"

"Does he have that ability?"

Du Laosan was furious, Shui Ziliu was a little famous, but he didn't take Shui Ziliu seriously, because he had spent much longer than Shui Ziliu, and he could call a dozen people casually. It is not comparable to the artesian flow of water.

"Get someone to find me the water cripple. Damn, if you dare to compete with me for business, you won't be able to kill him."

Shui Ziliu and Luo Shibin started the ticket scalping operation after meeting Zhou Chen. They have already received several tickets, and today they are going to meet a person who is going to sell sewing tickets and TV tickets.

It's just that they didn't expect that this time they went, it was like a sheep entering the tiger's mouth.
