chapter 23 Zhou Rui's demeanor

by Mark Twain 20:06,May 25,2023


"Hey, I seem to have seen this before?" A high-ranking police station took the thing from Zhou Rui, looked at it for a while, and then said: "That's right, among the batch of Thai smuggled goods we assisted in seizing last time, There is this. It seems to be some kind of corpse oil. It is said that it is collected by putting dead babies on a rack and roasting their chins.

The people in the circle heard the horror, the corpse oil collected from the chin of roasted dead babies? It's too cruel!

The senior policeman said again: "Thailand, including Myanmar, and Laos have a special belief in this. But as far as I know, this kind of amulet made of corpse oil is a negative card. Although it can make people happy in a short time luck, but it is easy to be backlashed by unclean things. Guobing Jiang, why did you buy such a wicked thing."

Guobing Jiang was a little dazed when he heard this, and said, "I, when we bought it, that person said it was the genuine one made by Azan in white in the temple..."

"Then you must have been deceived." Zhou Rui shook his head and said, "This kind of thing is indeed a crooked way, and ordinary people are easily in danger because of it. You can believe it, but it's best not to touch it."

Guobing Jiang nodded, suddenly grabbed the small bottle and amulet, threw them directly into the trash can, and said through gritted teeth, "I will never buy these things again!"

Hongming Zhang patted Zhou Rui on the shoulder, laughed loudly, and said, "Little Brother, you're going to become famous this time. Later, I'll get someone to help you publicize and make sure you become famous!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Rui waved his hands quickly, and said, "Don't! I never thought of being famous, so it's fine as it is now. General Manager Zhang really wants to help me, tell the hospital later, don't let this matter spread. If you have to make contributions, Dr. Chen and the others are quite suitable."

The people around were stunned. Now how many people want to be famous out of their heads. Zhou Rui has this strength and this opportunity, so why push it outside?

Zhou Rui couldn't tell because of his hardships. He learned his medical skills from The Book of Morals. In the previous twenty years, he had always been a wimpy image.

If he suddenly said that he became a genius doctor, no one who knew him would believe him. Even if he believed it, he would doubt where he got his medical skills.

All in all, if Zhou Rui wants to keep the secrets of The Book of Morals, he must learn to keep a low profile.

As for the so-called fame, forget it, he doesn't value it.

No matter what he said, Hongming Zhang finally agreed with full incomprehension. If you don't help him promote it, you have to find a relationship so that these doctors don't spread it everywhere.

"Mr. Zhou, you have such good medical skills, you should hang the pot to help the world and heal the world. The more famous you are, the more effective you can be."Dr. Chen still did not give up persuading: "It's really not possible, you come to us Hospitals are also fine. We have a department of traditional Chinese medicine, and with your medical skills, it is no problem to be the chief physician directly!"

"This... everyone has their own ambitions, I still like a more ordinary life." Zhou Rui said.

Dr. Chen couldn't persuade them, but in the end they could only understand that this was a master's demeanor. I look down on fame and fortune, so I yearn for the pastoral and freedom.

Subsequently, Guobing Jiang wife was pushed to the intensive care unit. Zhou Rui really couldn't bear the attitude of being sought after by a bunch of people. In the past, he was always scolded for being soft, not a man. Now suddenly a bunch of people come and hold it in their mouths, so naturally they are not used to it.

Seeing that he wanted to leave, Hongming Zhang didn't refuse, but only vaguely reminded that Jinliang Chen wanted to invite him to dinner.

And Jinliang Chen himself also came over and made it clear that he hoped Zhou Rui would give him a chance to make amends.

Anyway, he is the Director, so it's not good for Zhou Rui to refute his face directly. Just as he was about to agree, the phone rang.

After connecting, Qingyun Ji cold voice came from inside: "Why aren't you in the bookstore!"

This is not a question, but a reprimand.

Zhou Rui quickly explained: "I came to the hospital to visit Lina Xia, and I'm going back now."

Fortunately, Qingyun Ji knew that Lina Xia was the little girl in the car accident, and when she heard that he was visiting a patient, her tone was slightly better: "It doesn't take that long to see a patient, I've been waiting here for you for an hour and there is no sign of anyone! "

"Wait for me for an hour?" Zhou Rui was very surprised, he always waited for Qingyun Ji, how could it be the other way around.

"I'm going to have dinner with my third uncle's family tonight, come here quickly!"Qingyun Ji said.

Zhou Rui responded quickly, and after hanging up the phone, he apologized to Chen Jinliang and Hongming Zhang: "I'm really sorry, the family is having dinner together today..."

"Family is of course the most important thing. It doesn't matter. Mr. Zhou is busy first, and there will be opportunities in the future."Jinliang Chen said not minding.

Hongming Zhang also smiled and said, "That's right, there will be a long time to come. However, I really want to meet Brother Zhou's family. Such a good family can have a talent like Brother Zhou."

Zhou Rui sneered, thinking that if you knew that I was a softie, you might not think so.

In this matter, he is somewhat inferior.

After leaving the People's Hospital, Zhou Rui returned to the bookstore. Qingyun Ji was already impatiently waiting, so she scolded him for a while when they met. Zhou Rui didn't dare to say much, so he just opened the door and borrowed it to see the reason of the circuit, and put The Book of Morals on the bar counter.

He was afraid that there would be too many people during the meal, and it would be troublesome if he lost it.

Naturally, Qingyun Ji was even more unhappy. She had been delayed for a long time and was still looking at the circuit. Even if a dilapidated bookstore is burned down, how much is it worth?

At this time, children are out of school, adults are off work, and the road is a bit congested.

Forty or fifty minutes later, the two arrived at Tengwang Pavilion. Under the guidance of the waiter, enter the box.

When the people in the box heard the door opening, they immediately turned their heads to look.

Seeing that it was Zhou Rui, one of the women immediately said: "Hey, isn't this Xiao Zhou? She has a big shelf. Wait until now. What's the matter, the bookstore is so busy that you can't spare time? Boyi rushes to work after work. coming."

It was the third aunt who spoke. Among the many relatives, she belonged to the kind of person who was more competitive.

Every time I go out, no matter what others say, I can turn the topic to my son, and then praise him in a casual tone.

It's just that Qingyun Ji, as the most promising generation in the family, has been unable to find anything to belittle her. Fortunately, there is Zhou Rui who is holding her back.

Therefore, as long as she saw Zhou Rui, the third aunt would always sneer at her secretly. It seems that as long as this is the case, her son will be better than Qingyun Ji.

Sitting next to her was a young man with an arrogant face, who glanced at Zhou Rui and sneered with disdain or displeasure.

Even though he just graduated, Boyi Song has always looked down on Zhou Rui since he was a child.

Zhou Rui boarded at Ji Family since elementary school, eating and drinking for free, and even married such a beautiful woman as Qingyun Ji. From Boyi Song point of view, it's purely dog poop ringworm growing in the Jinluan Palace - a good place for it to grow!

Not to mention that he is almost illiterate after graduating from junior high school, but he is so poor and poor in health, what is the difference between him and a Useless?

So, even if Zhou Rui was his brother-in-law in name, Boyi Song never called it that.

Every time I call him by his first name, there is no respect at all. Up to now, he is not even interested in talking to Zhou Rui.

From Boyi Song point of view, the two of them are completely on two levels.

My goal is to surpass my cousin Qingyun Ji and become the best person in the family, making all relatives look up to me.

As for Zhou Rui? What is it?

Fengxue Song immediately scolded: "Zhou Rui, didn't I call you a long time ago, why didn't you come here until now! It's outrageous!"

Zhou Rui quickly explained that there was a traffic jam on the road, so he was a little slower.

However, no one listened to his explanation. According to past experience, Zhou Rui just gathered the number of people on such occasions and did odd jobs by the way. If there is food to eat, if there is no food, just make fun of him. Anyway, the Ji Family didn't treat Zhou Rui very well, let alone the others.

Zeming Ji smoothed things over and called the waiter to serve the food quickly.

Normally, Zhou Rui would have bowed his head and remained silent. But today he led a group of doctors to create a miracle, which gave him a lot of confidence, so he looked at Boyi Song and asked curiously, "When did Boyi come back? Aren't you going to school?"

Boyi Song squinted at him and said, "Can your memory be any worse?"

"That's right, we Boyi have graduated for half a year, and you don't even know you're already working? Old Ji, you are a professor, and you teach so many students, why don't you teach your son-in-law." The third aunt said.

Zeming Ji didn't like arguing with others very much, so he picked up the cup, laughed twice and didn't speak.

On the contrary, Song Fengxue reprimanded habitually: "Don't talk if you don't know, it's making people laugh."

Qingyun Ji seemed a bit blindsided, and said, "Mom, please stop talking."

"I'm not wrong!"Fengxue Song seemed to be still resenting Zhou Rui for saying that she was selling fake medicines, and he said angrily: "I thought everyone was like him, and I wouldn't be able to go to junior high school. I'm Boyi But the talented students who graduated from key universities are now working in big companies, and their future is bright! Unlike Zhou Rui, he knows that there is no future for him to guard a dilapidated bookstore."

Qingyun Ji frowned slightly, and was about to say something more, but suddenly felt someone pat the back of her hand twice.

Looking down, I found that it was Zhou Rui's hand. When I looked up again, Zhou Rui was smiling and shaking his head slightly at her, as if saying it was okay.

Qingyun Ji was slightly surprised. Usually, when encountering such a situation, Zhou Rui always had no reaction and just accepted it. Although he still didn't say a word today, his expression was much better than before.

At the very least, Qingyun Ji didn't see loss and inferiority in his eyes, but... a bit of inexplicable confidence?

Especially his actions, although the two have been married for several years, Zhou Rui almost never held her hand. It's not that I don't want to, but I dare not.

What's the matter today, I seem to have suddenly become more courageous?

At this time, Zeming Ji said, "Okay, let's stop talking about gossip, let's talk about business. Boyi, I just talked about your cousin's company. Look, can you help me?"

Boyi Song pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said with great pride, "Our Hongye Group is not an ordinary company. It is a first-class company in the country. It strictly abides by various regulations. My cousin's company has encountered difficulties in signing contracts. It just means the standards are not met.”

Zhou Rui was stunned, Hongye Group? Hongming Zhang's company?

He subconsciously glanced at Qingyun Ji, and saw that his wife seemed unhappy, but he seemed to be scrupulous, so he didn't open his mouth to refute.

Although Fengxue Song opened a clinic, he could also be regarded as a businessman, so he said: "That's why I asked you for help. After all, you are an employee of Hongye Group. Your cousin doesn't ask for anything else, just want to talk to their department. Meet with the director. You have to meet to find out whether the standard is enough. If you can’t see anyone, how do you know what’s wrong? We are all family members. If you can help, please help, aunt Thank you in advance."

Only then did Zhou Rui understand why he suddenly had dinner with the third uncle's family today, and he probably asked for help.

He looked at Boyi Song curiously, and asked, "Boyi also works in Hongye Group? Which department?"

"Yeah?"Boyi Song glanced at him and said with a sneer, "It seems that you also work there. Or, do you know someone from Hongye Group? If you do, you don't need to ask me for help."

As for his cousin-in-law, Boyi Song felt more and more different.

It's almost 30 now, and it's still not promising. It's just a dilapidated bookstore, and it's still rented out. Excluding the rent, water and electricity bills, I can’t even earn 1,000 yuan.

Look at this suit, it is estimated that the sum is less than five hundred yuan, but my own suit costs several thousand!

As for myself, after graduating from a prestigious school, my salary during the internship period was as high as 5,000 yuan! After two months to become a regular, it will be easy to break through 10,000!

One month's salary is worth what this so-called cousin-in-law earns in a year.

So from Boyi Song point of view, the gap between himself and his cousin-in-law is sky-high. In addition, his cousin Qingyun Ji, who was originally the best, wanted to ask him, a college student who just graduated, to help him. Boyi Song's self-confidence instantly exploded.
