I Really Didn’t Want To Make A Lot Of Money

The Mercedes Benz drove into a courtyard with four high walls. The yard covers an area of ​​two acres, with two houses, a swimming pool, carefully maintained flowers and plants, and pomegranate trees and fig trees. The decoration of the house is rich in colors and uses a lot of feminine decoration.

The driver stopped in front of a house and said to Chen Ling, "Mr. Chen, this is Miss Lilia's villa. She is not here usually, and lives with the elders in the family. Today is here to receive you."

Chen Ling nodded and said, "Okay, are we late?" The driver said, "No, don't worry."

At this time, the car door opened from the outside, and the sound of music immediately floated in. A young man dressed as a waiter stood at the door and asked Chen Ling to get off.

Lilia greeted her from the house and said happily, "Mr. Chen, good afternoon!"

A fragrant wind came on her face, and Lilia came up to meet Chen Lingxing.

This is Chen Ling's first real veneer ceremony. When he was in school, the teacher specifically introduced this etiquette and asked the students to practice once in class, boy to boy and girl to girl.

Lilia is wearing a sky blue dress today, her hairstyle is different from last time, her shoulder-length hair is draped behind her head. She led Chen Ling into it, and said, "The main people here today are young people from our family. They all admire your bravery."

The living room was very large, with a few sofas, and a dozen people sat there, and when they saw Chen Ling coming in, they stood up.

Lilia said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, our distinguished guest, Mr. Chen Ling, is here, please show your cultivation."

Chen Ling was not so big enough to let others line up to say hello to him, so he took a few steps forward and proactively said: "Good afternoon everyone, I am Chen Ling, I am honored to meet you." After that, he went up and shook hands one by one.

Lilia introduced next to him: uncle who is a judge, aunt who is a lawyer, elder brother who is in the army, cousin who runs errands in the government, cousin in the JING prosecution bureau, cousin in the bank, cousin in the steel factory...

Chen Ling found out that Lilia's cousins ​​had a lot of cousins, but they didn't have any elder sisters or sisters.

After the introduction, Lilia’s uncle judge, Caliph, asked Chen Ling to sit down and said: “Mr. Chen, we heard Lilia talk about inviting you to be a guest at home a few days ago. It’s a great honor. You may not know, you arrested How much is it to our family to live in Mulu militants."

Everyone nodded.

The caliph continued: “I won’t say much about the bad things in the past. In our big family, our second brother is in charge of daily affairs, but he happened to go to the capital Algiers for official business today, so today I represent the whole family. Thank you."

Chen Ling said he didn't dare to be.

The caliph is also a very enlightened elder. He smiled and said, "Today is a gathering of your young people. I won’t bother you much. Let’s go first and let you play as much as you want. If you have any problems in Algeria in the future, please Don't hesitate to look for us. You see, we guys have all kinds of industries, and they are all elite talents in various industries."

Only then did Chen Ling know that the Caliph was here to wait for him, his expression grateful.

The Caliph took Chen Ling's hand and said, "I won't say more, you can talk to the boys."

After speaking, he got up and walked out, his wife waved goodbye to Chen Ling, Lilia sent to the outside of the house.

As soon as the elders left, the young people let go. Lilia’s brother Hassan in the army started and asked Chen Ling to talk about the capture of Mulu militants that night.

Listening to the person's personal narration and watching media reports are of course different experiences.

Chen Ling recounted the experience that night as he described to Lilia at the commendation meeting, omitting the part where the toilet was smelly. After all, there were more listeners today.

Naturally, it caused some discussion. Hasan noticed one point and asked, "Mr. Chen, your hearing is very good. I heard security information on the wall. Have you tested your hearing?"

Chen Ling knew the reason for his good hearing, especially the key information, but he didn't know how to explain, so he said, "I haven't tested my hearing specifically. Indeed, I heard the sound across the thick wall that day. But then I heard it specifically when I went to the bathroom, and I didn't hear the sound from outside the wall anymore. Maybe that day that person had a very loud voice?"

Everyone laughed. Hassan smiled and said, "It was Allah who made him speak in a loud voice."

"There's another story, Chen Ling, you want to tell everyone." Lilia now calls Chen Ling not as cautious as she used to be. She calls him by name instead of "you". After all, Lilia is a cool girl.

The brothers looked at Chen Ling curiously.

"Lilia, are you talking about the vegetable market?" Chen Ling asked.

Lilia opened her eyes wide and said, "Yeah. You and the military police worked together to catch the Mulu militants. The vegetable market is single-handed and more exciting. Come on, I don't know what happened.

The brothers also urged Chen Ling. Chen Ling took it as a storytelling and told the process again.

But this time Chen Ling deliberately downplayed the things he could see in the black hole church. He didn't want people to pay too much attention to these aspects of himself and it was difficult to explain.

Under Chen Lingyou's concealment, the careful Hassan did not recognize any special place. Like everyone else, he praised Chen Ling's fearlessness, calmness and strategy, and said: "Mr. Chen, you really should join us. Our army needs you like this. Talents."

Lilia groaned: "Brother, Chen Ling is a foreigner and can't join your army. It's okay to be a guide, right Chen Ling?"

Chen Ling couldn't stand their compliments like this and changed the subject: "Actually, I would like to know what to eat tonight. I am very curious about your dishes."

This topic is a big mistake!

No one answered Chen Ling’s question because they were more curious than Chen Ling: "Mr. Chen, I have watched a documentary. Asians eat dog meat. Is it true?"

Lilia corrected her cousin who was speaking and said, "Not only do you eat dog meat, but the most edible Asians are Chinese. Chinese eat everything that can move, right, Chen Ling?" She said, holding out two fingers. Signed, staring at Chen Ling with wide eyes.

Chen Ling looked at the people in the room with curious eyes, and couldn't laugh or cry. People always have a curious mentality, are not interested in common things, and turn a blind eye to most facts.

Chen Ling cleared his throat and said: "We Chinese people like to eat many things, which are scientifically proven to be edible. In Algeria, I like your dishes, such as couscous. Well, I seem to smell the fragrance. "

Couscous is a traditional Algerian dish. It is made from semolina and served with various meats or vegetables. It is a must-have dish for Algerians to entertain guests.

Hassan said: "It seems that Mr. Chen is really hungry. Lilia, let's talk while eating, and drink a little by the way?"

When everyone moved to the restaurant, there was indeed a large pot of couscous, as well as large pots of barbecue, rice, salad, and grilled fish. Everyone digs into their own plate with a spoon and starts to eat.

Of course, it is usual to thank Allah before eating.

Hassan said loudly: "Brothers, we are starting to serve drinks. Give Mr. Chen a glass first."

A group of young people cheered.

Chen Ling took a sip, it turned out to be beer!

Hassan took a sip, with a face of contentment, and murmured: "Mr. Chen, you don't know, I can drink beer only in Lilia's villa, and other places have been banned by the family."

Said and raised the cup: "Brothers, toast, thank you our beautiful Miss Lilia."

Everyone roared, Lilia curled her lips and said nothing.

Lilia leaned against Chen Ling, brought the grilled fish to him, and said, "Chen Ling, taste our special grilled fish. This is what I came back to teach our chef to cook after I ate in Annaba, clean, Fresh and delicious."

Chen Ling likes to eat local food and feels very good to his own taste. It is much better than the food in the camp canteen.

Lilia smiled and looked at Chen Ling feasting, and asked: "It's delicious, isn't it?"

"Well, the lamb in this couscous is really good."

"Do you like it? I can ask the chef to do it in the future and send you to the camp."

Chen Ling was very happy and smiled: "We have too many people, you can't do it."

"It was for you. I don't know your colleague—I don't know the big belly."

"Big belly?" Chen Lingqi said, "Which big belly?"

"It's the gentleman who wants to pretend to be you to receive the medal." Lilia said with a pouting mouth, "I hate him. Our family's food will never be eaten for him."

"Oh, you are talking about Lao Liang." Chen Ling understood. "He is my leader. I have a very bad relationship with him now. He even wants me to return to China."

Hassan heard it and shouted: "Mr. Chen, you can't go back to China. You are now a good friend of our Algerian people. We have many things to do together. Come, have a drink, and wish you health!" He took a sip from the glass.

Lilia frowned and said to Hassan, "Brother, if Chen Ling doesn't like his leadership, can we help Chen Ling change a place?" Then, without waiting for Hassan to answer, she turned to ask Chen Ling: "Chen Ling , Where do you want to change to?"
