Lawyer's character
Chapter 122 It’s hard to be a good person!
Seeing the embarrassment on Zhao Zhongcheng's face, Chu Huai said hurriedly: "Of course your eldest niece's academic performance is quite good. She is in the top five in the class and ranked in the whole school. There is absolutely no shame in showing her results."
Speaking of his daughter, Chu Huai's face was filled with a happy smile. He was completely different from the usually selfish, greedy, and evil-minded Chu Huai.
Zhao Zhongcheng looked at Chu Huai, feeling slightly touched in his heart. No matter how bad Chu Huai is, he has someone to be proud of in his heart. As for himself, he has been opportunistic for half his life. His only son has left with his ex-wife and disowns him. His parents are unwilling to pay attention to him. He only has a tigress at home all day long. You have to stare at yourself as if you were looking at a thief, and the feather duster will fly around if you don't go your way...
Seeing that Zhao Zhongcheng was a little absent-minded and silent, Chu Huai continued: "Zhongzhong! Are you a little embarrassed? I don't keep you busy in vain."
In fact, Chu Huai is not willing to ask Zhao Zhongcheng to do things. Everyone is a colleague. He feels that asking a colleague, especially a colleague's wife, to do something will lower his status!
Besides, the two of them are in the same law firm, so they meet each other without looking up, and they are in a competitive relationship. It always feels awkward to ask for help, and it doesn’t look good in terms of face!
However, Director Sun had promised to help find a relationship before, but he had not believed him for so long, which made Chu Huai always feel uneasy. For the sake of his child's future, under the pressure of his wife, he finally decided to give up his face and ask for help. Zhao Zhongcheng asked for help to add another layer of insurance to his children's path to higher education.
"It's a big deal for your child to go to school. I'll ask you if it's possible. But I can't guarantee whether it will happen or not." Zhao Da has been deceiving for so many years. I don't know what happened today. Suddenly his head short-circuited. He didn't even pat his chest or He ridiculed Chu Huai, but wanted to help Chu Huai from the bottom of his heart. Of course, it was not because of his face, but for other reasons.
"Great, I'll ask my brothers and sisters when it's convenient. I'll be the host and treat you to a meal." Chu Huaixi said with a smile.
He didn't expect Zhao Zhongcheng to agree so readily, without taking it seriously or showing off. Originally, he was ready to be the third grandson for a while, but he didn't expect that it would turn out like this.
"Don't worry. I'll ask when I get home tonight. If it can be arranged, it won't be too late to get together." Zhao Zhongcheng smiled slightly and left the conference room after finishing speaking.
"Old Zhao, I'll leave this to you." Chu Huai said loudly to Zhao Zhongcheng who was walking towards the door of the conference room. The latter stretched out three hands without looking back and made an OK gesture.
After the excitement, Chu Huai always felt something was wrong: This is not Zhao Zhongcheng's style. Is this guy trying to frame me?
have to! Zhao Zhongcheng has been deceived all his life, and he wants to do good things but is misunderstood. It’s hard to be a good person!
After get off work in the evening, Zhao Zhongcheng returned home happily. His wife Tan Guihua was eating melon seeds and watching TV in the living room.
"Back!" Tan Guihua glanced at him and continued watching TV.
"Well, we paid wages today. Go check it out when you have time. The total is 3,900 yuan." Zhao Zhongcheng sat next to his wife with a flattering look on his face, grabbed a handful of Qiaqia melon seeds, and peeled them.
"That's pretty much it. No need to check, I've already received a text message from the bank.
Today I went to the vegetable market after get off work and bought two kilograms of pork belly. You will make braised pork in a while. I don’t know what’s going on lately, but I just want to eat the braised pork you made. "As she said that, Tan Guihua turned to him with a happy face and pecked his half-aged face.
Zhao Zhongcheng immediately felt happy and was about to open his arms for a big hug, but Tan Guihua turned around and got up to go to the bathroom.
Zhao Zhongcheng was unhappy when he saw it and went to the kitchen angrily.
The relationship between their husband and wife has always been relatively delicate, and the yin in the family is strong and the yang is weak. Zhao Zhongcheng's reputation was not very good, and his wife Tan Guihua disliked him sincerely. In addition, after resigning from public service to become a lawyer, she did not make much money. Tan Guihua's income was higher than his, so naturally it was her daughter-in-law who had the final say at home.
Of course, talking about Osmanthus fragrans is not a fuel-saving lamp. She relies on her family connections, is used to being domineering, and has an extremely ordinary appearance. She is quite annoying in the workplace, so Zhao Zhongcheng regards her as a treasure.
Because the yin in the family was strong and the yang was weak, Zhao Zhongcheng had been living a more cautious life, fearing that his wife would be unhappy with Tan Guihua and kick him out of bed and let him sleep in the guest room.
Today Chu Huai asked him for help. Zhao Zhongcheng thought about how to say this on the way home. He knows that his wife has some energy, but she doesn't help everyone, she is rather snobbish.
After dinner, Zhao Zhongcheng saw Tan Guihua's happy face. After putting away the bowls and chopsticks on the table, he hesitantly came to his daughter-in-law who was lying on the imperial concubine's bed watching TV, and organized a few words: "Daughter-in-law, I have a colleague, that Chu Huai, whom you met before."
"Well, what's the matter?" Tan Guihua looked away from the TV and stared at Zhao Zhongcheng's face and asked.
"He came to me today and wanted to help me do something." Zhao Zhongcheng said.
Tan Guihua suddenly stood up, sat cross-legged on the imperial concubine's couch, and asked, "What can I do for you?"
"It's time for his daughter to go to middle school. Her academic performance is not bad, and she is ranked first in the whole school. You also know that there are only a few key middle schools in our county, and the competition is fierce! He is afraid that something will happen to his daughter, so he wants to add an extra layer of insurance .
I mentioned to him before that you work in the County Education Bureau, you are a leader and the backbone of the business, and you are always picked on by everyone in the overall situation.
I don’t know why he remembered this problem again today. He asked me to talk to you and see if I can be accommodating and give a message to the leaders of the County No. 1 Middle School. Take his daughter in. "Zhao Zhongcheng observed the words and expressions while talking.
Seeing Guihua's eyes rolling and not speaking, Zhao Zhongcheng's heart tightened: Could this girl be thinking about how to make money?
"Old Zhao." Tan Guihua suddenly said.
"Oh." Zhao Zhongcheng agreed hurriedly.
"You and Chu Huai have always been at odds with each other. Why did you suddenly want to help him?" Tan Guihua stared at him with her eyes.
"No... it's a big deal for my daughter to go to school. No matter how normal our relationship is with Chu Huai, we still have a bit of a relationship as colleagues. In the final analysis, it's an internal conflict, not a life-or-death battle between the enemy and us!" Zhao Zhongcheng defended.
"Stop talking to me about useless things. Tell me, how much benefit has the surname Chu given you?" Tan Guihua looked at him with an expression that was weird if I believed you.
"I...not...how can you think of me like this. We are all engaged in education..." Zhao Zhongcheng was a little confused. Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Tan Guihua: "I am engaged in education, you have They are engaged in education, so the wording must be rigorous.”
"Well, I used to be an educator, right? It's not easy for Lao Chu and his family. It's not easy for students from rural areas in our county to get admitted to the county. It's even harder to enter a key middle school in the county. There are so many people saying hello, and Those who pay sponsorship fees, but there are only so many places.
I have read the report cards of the children of the old Chu family, and they are indeed good. It would be a pity if they were squeezed out by others. So out of public interest, I think this favor should be done.
Besides, in the case of Lao Chu's family, although he has no worries about food and drink, it is still difficult for him to spend real money. I really deprive him of the benefits. "Zhao Zhongcheng said it sincerely, but Tan Guihua rolled his eyes when he heard it.
