Midway, Pan Mila came back and saw Lu Ming and Zhen embracing each other on the sofa. She booed again and left with Bisi.
When Pan Mila and Bisi came back, Lu Ming had already prepared a meal with Zhen. It was a very simple meal of four dishes and one soup, and two dishes were replaced with cooked food.
Zhen's pretty face was red and she was in a trance. Therefore, she no longer felt guilty for preparing such a shabby dish on the master's happy day.
"Uncle, when will my sister give birth to a little sister for me?" Bisi suddenly said with a smile at the dinner table.
She was wearing a snow-white princess dress and little white lace socks. She looked extremely cute, but these words stunned Lu Ming.
Pan Mila immediately opened her eyes: "Children are talking nonsense again!"
Seeing that Mrs. Zhen was still in a state of disbelief, she obviously didn't pay attention to what Bisi said.
Lu Ming smiled and said: "Uncle has been promoted to the second degree of lawyer. Bisi, don't you have a gift for uncle?"
Bis' big blue eyes blinked, "Uncle, can I give it to you for the first time?"
The smile on Lu Ming's face suddenly turned ugly.
Pan Mila was so angry that she completely lost her grace. She was holding a spoon in her hand, and she hit Bisi's little head. She didn't know what to curse in her mouth, but she inadvertently caught sight of Lu from the corner of her eye. Ming's donkey face suddenly felt a little funny again.
"From now on, don't associate with your friends anymore! No, you are not allowed to go to school. You are grounded for a month!"
Needless to say, I learned it from those troubled girls. I heard them talk about these topics all the time, so it shouldn’t be regarded as taboo words.
Bisi's big eyes immediately filled with tears, Lu Ming frowned and said: "Get a chicken drumstick and go back to the room to eat! I won't speak, and you are not allowed to come out!"
"Oh..." Although Bisi's eyes were full of tears, she still agreed, took her own small bowl, put the chicken legs in, and then slowly walked out of the restaurant and returned to her room, her little body shaking a little Shaking, for the first time, a ray of light in her life reprimanded herself so severely. She was completely lost. She didn't want to eat the chicken legs at all. It was her uncle who said so, so she did it.
Lu Ming looked at her back and suddenly felt distressed.
"Ah, what's wrong with Bisi?" Zhen finally came to her senses.
"I scolded you..." Lu Ming said dullly.
"Huh?" Zhen was extremely surprised.
Lu Ming sighed softly, "Okay, go see her."
Zhen originally wanted to go, but she didn't know if the master would be unhappy. After hearing what Lu Ming said, she hurriedly said: "Okay!" She got up and walked into Bisi's room.
Pan Mila saw Lu Ming's sad expression and originally wanted to ridicule him. I didn't ask her to associate with those people before. What did you say? Why are you so angry now?
But looking at Lu Ming's expression, he could no longer say these words.
I thought for a while and said, "Actually, Bisi doesn't understand anything at all. It's not as serious as you think."
Lu Ming sighed softly, "I thought that I would not be a qualified father."
Pan Mila looked at him quietly with her deep blue eyes, "I don't think so. When Bisi and I met you, it was the best gift God gave us."
Lu Ming shook his head, not paying attention to her tone and eyes. After scolding Bi Si sternly, he suddenly felt very bad.
"Let's talk about something happy. It turns out that today's table is a belated celebration!" Pan Mira chuckled.
Lu Ming hummed.
"In this case, I have a gift to celebrate your promotion to the second rank, boss! They all said that they will give it out when the boss's current case is over and he is not so busy!"
Oh? Lu Ming looked at Pan Mira in confusion.
Pan Mila had already gotten up and returned to her room. When she came out, she took a thick red gift bag with an auspicious pattern of flying dragons and phoenixes on the cover.
"Boss, you can see for yourself." Pan Mira placed the gift bag in front of Lu Ming.
"Mysterious!" Lu Ming shook his head, but he also took it over, opened the lacquer seal of the gift bag, reached in, and the first thing he took out was a hard red paper greeting card.
"Congratulations to Lawyer Lu Qianxing: The weak crown enters Hanyuan, and the judiciary helps the boat. I sigh at Beiguan, the genius of heaven..."
A eloquent congratulatory article, which is quite literary and suitable for the occasion. The signature at the end is, "Brother: Liu Gaoyu, Wen Liangyu, Liu Hanhuan, Meng Dezhu, Zhao Xingwang,..." and so on, there are more than ten names.
Under the greeting card, there are several pages of house and land deeds, and in the red gift bag, there is a thick stack of photos.
Lu Ming was stunned and gradually realized that this gift was actually a three-story single-door villa in a small courtyard. The address of the house deed was "No. 23 Hepu Road".
Hepu Road is a real gathering place for rich people, such as Liu Laocai, who lives there.
Several wealthy Westerners in Beiguan also live there. In addition, there are more than a dozen congressmen living in that area.
Hepu Road is actually a road surrounding the West Lake in Beiguan. On both sides of the road, there are single-family villas, and the people who live there are either rich or expensive.
The community is completely closed and managed, and ordinary people cannot enter at all. The guards come from a free city-state called Tudor in the Western Region. The Tudor people seem to have a talent for being guards, and they wear thick green turbans on their heads. This is their characteristic, so they are also known as "green-headed soldiers".
The ethnic groups in the city-states of the Western Regions originally had a low status in the empire, ranking at the fourth level. Moreover, no matter how ranked the Westerners, Yingzhou people and Central Asians were, they recognized each other as members of civilized society. According to Lu Ming's understanding , the low status of the Central Continent people is more likely to be guarded and deliberately suppressed for thousands of years. After all, if you look at the big names in the scientific community, you will know that if the starting point is the same, the Central Continent people are such a smart group. Westerners and Yingzhou people are obviously somewhat different. Be wary that the Central Continent people will come back, especially since there are independent Central Continent federations such as the four northern provinces.
The three major ethnic groups in the empire, such as the Western Region Ethnic Group and the Southern Emirates Collection, do not quite recognize them as civilized societies.
Therefore, the fourth class of ethnic groups from the Western Regions is actually different from the third class of people from Central China. They are really considered to be racially inferior.
The Tudra people are a low-income group in the city-states of the Western Regions, but they generally like to brag and work as guards and slaves for the rich, which is their favorite.
In this wealthy community on Hepu Road, it is rumored that hundreds of "green-headed soldiers" are employed to patrol around the clock day and night. This community is extremely safe.
Looking at the property deed, Lu Ming rubbed his nose, then picked up the pile of photos and looked at them. They were taken from various angles in the courtyard of No. 23.
A very beautiful three-story villa with a deep courtyard, various trees, and a picturesque green lake behind it.
"Director Liu and the others have been prepared for a long time. However, is this a big happy event? You have been very troubled by that case recently. Therefore, Director Liu gave me the gift and asked me to choose a suitable festive time to send it. Here it is!" Pan Mila explained and said, "There is also this, take a look."
What was handed over was a page of paper, but it was the amount of money shared by a dozen people. This was really not suitable to put in the gift bag, but I wanted to know what I was doing, so I gave the list to Pan Mila.
This villa, including recent renovations and repairs, costs a total of 37,000 yuan.
Liu Laocai is 7,000 yuan, Wen Liangyu is 7,000 yuan, Liu Hanzhu is 7,000 yuan, Meng Dezhu is 5,000 yuan, and Zhao Xingwang is 5,000 yuan, which makes a total of 31,000 yuan.
The remaining ten people included shareholders of Liu Laocai's company, such as Wang Xingwu, whom Lu Ming had met; Wen Liangyu's right-hand man; a senior partner of Liu Hanxuan Firm, etc.; they shared 6,000 yuan, 500 yuan each. Diverse.
Lu Ming looked at Zhao Xingwang’s number and Meng Dezhu’s number.
We were having a bad time with Zhao Xingwang. Councilor Meng Dezhu had a good relationship, but he gave 5,000 yuan as a congratulatory gift? That's a joke. Meng Dezhu is just a principal and earns a lot compared to ordinary people. But his annual salary is between 2,000 yuan and 3,000 yuan, which is sky-high, and he has a lot of entertainment. How can he get such a lot of money?
"Director Liu may have made the call on purpose so that I could hear it. Councilor Meng Dezhu's contribution money was temporarily paid by Director Wen, and Director Zhao Xingwang's contribution money was paid by Director Liu on his behalf." Pan Mila was beside her. explain.
Lu Ming nodded, this was logical, but this gift was too heavy.
"From what Mr. Liu said, it was Liu Hanxuan who approached him first and revealed that he wanted to give this house to you. Mr. Liu was extremely happy. In twenty years, this was the first time that Liu Hanxuan came to ask him for something, but He knows that if Liu Hanhuan directly gives you such an expensive gift, you will definitely not accept it, so he gathered a group of old friends to work together to give you this gift."
Lu Ming was stunned for a moment and immediately understood that Liu Hanxuan was not thanking him or anything like that. If he gave him such a house alone, it could almost be regarded as a passing fee and a generous reward for becoming a partner of his firm. One of the benefits.
But he is not sure whether he can impress himself. Logically speaking, if such a villa is knocked down, no matter how potential he is, he is just a rookie lawyer who has just started. This house will definitely knock him out and sign a deed of sale. his office.
However, he was still very cautious before meeting with Liu Laocai, a relative who had not been around for twenty years, to inquire about his details.
Liu Laocai will definitely not say much to him, and even Liu Laocai doesn't know how much financial strength he really has.
But Liu Laocai knew that if Liu Hanhuan was given such a house directly, it would be like using money to surrender to him, and this matter would definitely turn into a scandal.
He hadn't taken Liu Hanhuan into the trap yet, so he gathered a group of old friends to share this gift.
Looking at the house deed, Lu Ming rubbed his nose. Any gift, no matter how meager, is not received in vain. They all want to get something in return from you. Even if it is a gift between lovers, they also expect to receive your emotional investment. no?
Not to mention such a heavy gift.
However, there is no reason not to accept it.
"Hanzhu, Bisi, come out, let's go see the house!" Lu Ming suddenly shouted.
The door to Bisi's bedroom was immediately opened, and the little guy looked at Lu Ming aggrievedly, "Does that mean, uncle, are you really calling me?"
"Let's go and go out for a walk!" Lu Ming smiled, "However, the punishment of grounding you for a month has not changed!"
"Oh..." Bisi agreed aggrievedly.
"Come here! Uncle will take you in the car!" Lu Ming squatted down and opened his hands.
Bisi walked over slowly, and as soon as she entered Lu Ming's arms, she began to sob softly. Lu Ming hugged her little body and said with a smile, "Okay, uncle won't scold you anymore. Let's go, take a car..."
On a whim, I suddenly hugged Bisi and stood up, trying to spin around a few times to tease her, but I didn't want to. I snorted and couldn't get up at all. Instead, I sat down on the carpet. I was helpless. This ginseng soup, Is it fake?
Ms. Zhen has already hurriedly come to help him. She already knows her master's body well.
Pan Mila looked at this scene in surprise, couldn't help but turned around and secretly smiled.
