Chapter 140 Does This Delicious Thing Understand Others’ Feelings?
Not only Wang Heping and Wang Li, but also Wang Quan and Miao Cui, upon hearing Bang Geng's shout, came out:
A spirited young man and a delicate young girl followed the third brother in.
Wang Heping's eyes lit up. Isn't this the leader of the Navy compound kids on the ice last time?
How did the third brother attract them here?
"Dad, Mom, my second brother, and my youngest sister, these two are my good friends. This is my older brother Qiao Qi, who is about to join the army, and this is my younger sister Qiao Na, who works at the Qianmen Bookstore.
I heard that my second brother was getting married the next day, and I was worried that the roads would be difficult to travel due to the heavy snow, so I helped him borrow a car.
Tomorrow, you and your sister-in-law will have to be very proud! "
hiss--
This is really embarrassing!
If his parents hadn't been there, Wang Heping would have jumped up and screamed.
The third brother is such a nice guy!
The brother and sister Qiao Qi and Qiao Na were not polite and called them uncle and aunt.
Wang Liuji said that we are good friends now. If we can go further in the future, we will not suffer any loss.
Wang Quan glanced at his wife, fortunately Miao Cui didn't have any big reaction.
How could Miao Cui react?
The third brother is very capable and can make friends with powerful people. Can she clip his wings?
She was just curious, could this little girl be the third brother's ideal girl?
Because this girl doesn't look very old, is petite and cute, works in a bookstore, and her family can even borrow a car, so her family background is not ordinary!
The third one should be a good match, right?
Because Wang Yuanchao said he wanted to invite them to dinner, his parents hurried to knead the dough and chop the stuffing. There were not enough dumplings. Who could make so many? Even if there was meat and noodles, they couldn't eat dumplings every meal. How could they survive?
Wang Li got close to Qiao Na in a very familiar way. Occasionally, the little girls would whisper to each other. After all, this sister worked in a bookstore. After a few words of casual chat, it could be seen that she was more educated than the girl who helped clean the dormitory at the third brother's unit.
A few people were cracking pine nuts (brought back by Wang Yuanchao from a business trip), drinking tea (bought by his father to entertain guests), and chatting around the stove, on which there were roasted sweet potatoes, chestnuts, potatoes, etc. (collected by Wang Heping in the countryside).
As they ate and drank, my second brother, Wang Heping, naturally talked about an interesting thing that happened in the morning:
The three uncles in the courtyard held a group visit, and the third uncle refuted Sha Zhu's suggestion that he instruct the children to ask for lucky money at random.
It turned out to be only 1 dollar!
And he, who spent 3 dollars, just shrank aside and didn't say a word!
As a result, this wicked guy, Shazhu, directly said that Lao Wang's family gave him 5 yuan as New Year's money, and didn't say anything. You only gave 5 yuan, and your whining is boring. Didn't the other child kowtow to your family? Didn't you call someone? If you want to come back, you can kowtow to him, Shazhu, he is out!
(Bang Geng was too embarrassed to ask Wang Yuanchao for 5 cents as a New Year's gift)
This guy vented his anger, and everyone hated him as a result.
I even hate the three kids!
After Qin Huairu found out, she confiscated the three children's New Year's money and demanded that it be returned one by one.
The third uncle accepted it shamelessly, so how could the Wang family accept it?
After a lot of arguing, we decided to give it to the child as it’s our first year of marriage, and in the future, we won’t give it to the child in response to the three uncles’ call for group visits.
The second brother told these family matters vividly, and Wang Yuanchao also provided appropriate support, so everyone actually listened with great interest, as if it was just gossip from the streets.
Wang Yuanchao suddenly thought, when he came back, Banggeng called out "Uncle Yuanchao" in a loud voice. Was it because he didn't want his mother to confiscate his 5 cents and wanted to please him?
The Qiao brothers and sisters finally know what kind of neighbors they have here!
Qiao Na also asked very detailed questions, asking questions about various things, like a curious baby:
Is this idiot a fool? He is going against the rules!
Why did the child only kneel before the Third Uncle and the Wang family?
……
Qiao Qi was fighting with the dried fruits, occasionally giving a few words of praise, drinking a few sips of tea, and acting as his sister's wingman. He was undoubtedly a good brother.
The second brother said it with a radiant face. His marriage was a great honor. Who could compare to him? As for the girl's thoughts, hey, there are many people who have thoughts about his third brother. This is the first time that the third brother has brought a girl home, right?
Wang Li glanced at his third brother, meaning: Is this my third sister-in-law?
Wang Yuanchao finally found an opportunity and asked Qiao Qi:
"Brother Qi, I keep thinking back to when you were driving, your feet were moving very fast, and the frequency was quite high!"
Qiao Qi actually found it meaningless to listen to these family gossips. Firstly, he had no interest in them, and secondly, he didn't have to get along with these people, so he said:
"Go, if I don't talk to you properly, you won't be able to sleep at night!"
Now even Wang Heping couldn't wait to go out and see the car.
Qiao Na stared at Qiao Qi fiercely:
Isn't it good for everyone to sit here and eat, drink and chat? What's so good about studying such a piece of iron?
Unfortunately, Qiao Qi's view was blocked by Wang Yuanchao and he didn't see his sister's expression at all.
After leaving the compound, Wang Heping's eyes widened.
Wow, the shiny grass green big iron shell made his eyes turn green!
His face lit up with joy and he quickly caught up with Qiao Qi and his third brother who were walking in front.
The children who had been surrounding the car and looking closely at it saw the adults coming and scattered, leaving behind paw prints and face prints on the car...
Bang Geng is even more daring:
"Uncle Yuanchao, can you ask your friend to take us for a ride? We have never ridden in a car before."
Wang Yuanchao saw the shameless change of face of this kid and laughed and scolded:
"When I, your uncle, learn how to do it, I'll take you guys for a ride!"
The third brother spoke, Wang Heping glared at him, and the children ran away.
Qiao Qi opened the cab and explained the driving steps one by one.
When it comes to shifting gears, first press the clutch, shift out of gear, step on the accelerator, then press the clutch again and shift into gear.
Wang Yuanchao then understood what confused him. He felt that Qiao Qi was pedaling diligently, even pressing the pedal twice to change gears!
So I asked weakly:
"Can't you step on it once? Why step on it twice?"
Qiao Qi was stunned by the question. Why did he step on it twice?
"Is that what the master taught you?"
Wang Yuanchao, who was unwilling to give up, asked again:
"What happens if you step on it once?"
Qiao Qi knew this and said:
"It will damage the gears...it will require a major overhaul!"
The shameless Wang Yuanchao pressed the issue further:
"Brother Qi, can I try?"
Qiao Qi was startled, thinking he had heard wrongly, and said:
"What?"
"I want to try it!"
Qiao Qi said with a serious expression:
"No, this is too dangerous."
Wang Yuanchao said:
"But I know all of them! If you don't believe me, just ask! Really."
Joanna stood aside and chimed in:
"Brother, just test him and put his arrogance to rest. Others need half a year to learn! He just took a bus once, and you taught him a few times, and he actually said he knew it. Are you really that good at teaching?"
Qiao Qi smiled. The partiality in his sister's words was obvious at a glance:
"What are you talking about? If you really know how to do it, it's because Yuan Chao is smart! Forget it, let me test you!"
Without waiting for Qiao Qi to ask questions, Wang Yuanchao went through the precautions for warming up the car, starting the car, driving, shifting gears, etc., one by one, leaving Qiao Qi stunned.
Qiao Na blinked and whispered to Wang Li:
"How come your brother is so smart, he only graduated from junior high school?"
Wang Li only felt that his third brother was talking eloquently, and it seemed that what he said should be correct, but he really didn't know that his third brother was so powerful. He could only say:
"Maybe I didn't focus on studying before."
What a perfect explanation!
Qiao Qi said:
"Then see if you can start the car!"
Wang Yuanchao touched the wet front of the car. It still had some residual heat. After all, the snowflakes had melted on it, so the step of warming up the car could be skipped.
He pulled out the crank, walked to the front of the car, and pushed the crank in, imitating Qiao Qi's example.
It turned slowly clockwise, faster and faster, following the rhythm of the engine. When I heard the sound of the engine turning on its own, I immediately pulled out the crank.
If it's any later, the crank will be driven by the engine and hit someone!
A success?
This requires not only strength, but also skill!
If the power is insufficient and the crank speed cannot keep up, the engine cannot be started at all, and the engine will make a muffled sound and stall.
If you have enough power but don't know when to pull out the crank, pulling it out too early will cause the engine to fail and you will have to try again. If you pull it out too late, you will just have to wait for the crank to hit you!
The Qiao siblings suddenly felt that this guy was so terrifying? !
Wang Yuanchao smiled and said to Qiao Qi:
"Brother Qi, I need you to be my co-pilot and help me. After all, this is my first time."
Qiao Qi nodded a little stiffly, completely shocked. Wang Yuanchao wanted to test drive the car, Qiao Qi sat in the passenger seat, and the others crowded into the large back seat.
Qiao Na and Wang Li sat on one side, and Wang Heping sat on the other side. The space was quite spacious, and if there was a squeeze in the middle, 10 people could squeeze in. Anyway, everyone was sitting next to each other.
Wang Yuanchao started to step on the clutch.
The clutch was pressed back and forth several times, as if trying to find the feeling:
"Brother Qi, do you want to use more force or less force on this clutch?"
Qiao Qi didn't expect Wang Yuanchao to ask such a question. He held the safety armrest in front of the seat tightly with his right hand and said calmly:
"Get the point."
Wang Yuanchao stepped on the accelerator a few more times and heard the roar of the engine. Everyone in the courtyard came over to watch.
Wang Quan and Miao Cui also came out. When they saw Wang Yuanchao sitting in the driver's seat, they were horrified. What is this kid doing?
Miao Cui was about to come up and ask Wang Yuanchao to get off, but the car started moving slowly!
Wang Yuanchao silently recited the key to shifting gears, stepped on the clutch hard and released it slowly, looking for the most suitable critical point for the car's engine.
The car started moving. Miao Cui was so scared that she took a few steps back, her eyes wide open and staring fiercely. She didn't even dare to speak loudly, for fear that Wang Yuanchao would be distracted and cause trouble.
The car quickly picked up speed and drove out of the alley in a few seconds.
Qiao Qi was already numb.
What kind of god is this?
Is this your first time driving?
Apart from driving slower and muttering a few words sometimes, he drives steadily and he doesn't even need to hold the handrail!
After leaving Nanluoguxiang and getting onto a main road without snow, Wang Yuanchao drove faster and faster, then constantly accelerated and changed gears, slowed down and changed gears, pulled over, started again, turned around, and reversed. He was truly a demon.
Only once did the car stall when starting on a slope.
Wang Yuanchao opened the car door and touched the crank with one hand, preparing to restart the car, but Qiao Qi stopped him:
"Get in, get in, this car has electric start!"
Now it was Wang Yuanchao's turn to be stunned: You have electric start, why are you still using this crank?
However, he still listened to the advice and got into the car. Under Qiao Qi's instructions, he started the car electrically, and with two "hums", the engine started again.
"It's cold in the winter, and the electricity is not enough."
Wang Yuanchao suddenly realized.
"Brother Qi, this car has a power steering system, right? It shouldn't be so hard to drive."
Qiao Qi thought that even if this guy had never driven a car, he must have studied it countless times. Most people don't know what a "power steering system" is. Well, that's not too shocking, it can only be said that he has strong hands-on ability.
"You have been secretly studying cars for a long time, right? Do you even know this?"
Wang Yuanchao chuckled twice.
Not only that, this car also has a heater! It just directs the hot air from the engine into the cab.
With so many people on the bus, it was already getting hot, and the cool wind blowing in from every corner seemed particularly fresh.
When Qiao Qi drove over, he only drove a few kilometers and the engine didn't have time to warm up.
Wang Yuanchao suddenly felt that he needed a car!
Compared to this, riding a bicycle is so backward.
With this thing, even though the city is big, you can go wherever you want, right?
Back at the courtyard, Bang Geng immediately jumped out and was so affectionate that Wang Yuanchao felt sick:
"Uncle Yuan Chao~"
Qiao Qi got out of the car directly and said:
"You take them for a walk, I'll have a smoke with your brother!"
Wang Heping got off the car, Joanna and Wang Li also got off the car, and then a group of children from the courtyard squeezed in.
Bang Geng and his two sisters squeezed into the passenger seat and said to everyone:
"You guys go to the back, this is the opportunity I fought for with my uncle Yuan Chao!"
The children squeezed into the back seat, it was packed. Not to mention Yan Jie Di and Yan Jie Kuang, even Liu Guangfu squeezed in! This guy is one year older than the second brother Wang Heping!
never mind.
Wang Yuanchao took them for a walk around Nanluoguxiang. Many of the children were still dizzy, and the car stopped at the gate of the courtyard again.
too fast!
Is this the car?
When school starts next year, I can go back to school and brag about it!
……
On the way back to the compound.
Qiao Qi said:
"Are you happy today?"
Joanna sat in the passenger seat, wrapping her coat tightly. The car's heating could not be relied upon. If it really got warm, she would probably be back in the compound by now.
"I'm freezing to death!"
Not answering the question, hey!
Qiao Qi said:
"Some comrades have good vision, just like Bole, they can judge people. Today I know that Wang Yuanchao is so amazing!"
After hearing this, Jonah became excited:
"Brother, let me tell you, he is very studious! During the summer vacation, in our bookstore, in the middle of the day, there was no one around except him reading a book!
Hey, you said the art troupe, aren't there a lot of beautiful young ladies and wives?"
Qiao Qi laughed:
"Why, are you worried?"
Joanna rolled her eyes. Her brother couldn't see it anyway.
"He fell into a woman's nest. Don't you know what kind of character you men are?"
Qiao Qi twisted his mouth and said:
"He is quite good, and my sister is not bad either, right?
But to be honest, you have to work harder.
I don't understand. I feel like the way he looks at you is clearer. Do you understand what I mean?"
Joanna pouted:
"I know, it's different from the way others look at me, want to swallow me, want to marry me, want to pursue me! Maybe he is still young, he just graduated from junior high school last year!
He doesn't really treat us as good friends, good brothers and good sisters, right?"
Joanna was already a little panicked.
Qiao Qi said:
"might have.
So why did I suggest helping his second brother? It's all for you.
We have to let him see the power of our family!
He is a smart man and should understand. "
Qiao Na saved her brother's arm and said coquettishly:
"I know you are the best to me!
What if he doesn’t understand?”
Qiao Qi glanced at his worried sister with contempt and said:
"Last time at the Shichahai Ice Rink and Makai Restaurant, do you think he doesn't understand? Compared to me, I can't say, but he definitely understands more than you!
But you have to think it over carefully, my father has always wanted you to marry Uncle Guo's son!"
Joanna said contemptuously:
"Brother, even you don't like Guo Lang, so how could I like him? Unless our dad points a gun at my head! But if he sees Wang Yuanchao, I guess he will like him too, don't you think? What an excellent son-in-law!"
Qiao Qi laughed:
"I noticed you have no shame at all!"
Qiao Na was originally fine, but after hearing what Qiao Qi said, her face turned red and she bit back:
"What about you? Which one of you will be my sister-in-law?"
Qiao Qi suddenly became serious:
"I'm going to join the army in the spring. I'll see where I'm going to be stationed. I have to finish my recruit period before I can join the army. Don't you think so?"
