Li He signaled Zhu Weiqi to tell Monk Pu and Shou Shan about his grandfather's ashes.
Seeing that Li He and the two old men in front of him were willing to support him, Zhu Weiqi naturally told them everything.
After hearing this, Monk Pu didn't say anything and just sighed lightly.
Only Shou Shan cursed, "What's the use of raising such a son! Unfilial son! How sad! How sad! "
Li He said, "I don't know his son. I can only rely on the two of you. Tell me, what should we do?"
As soon as he heard that he was going to look for trouble with Old Man Zhu's son, Shou Shan's imposing manner immediately weakened. He could only look at Monk Pu anxiously.
Seeing Shou Shan like a bear, Li He had a rough idea. Shou Shan was famous for bullying the weak and fearing the strong. He was a symbol of social Darwinism.
Li He asked Zhu Weiqi, "Which unit is your dad from?"
Zhu Weiqi said, "He works in the City Finance Department. I think it's the Tax Department."
Monk Pu smiled and said to Zhu Weiqi, "Call your father over. Let's have a good talk."
Zhu Weiqi gritted her teeth and finally went.
Zhu Weiqi's father was very tall and had a square face. He wore a pair of glasses and looked very cultured. He was very polite to Monk Pu. "Uncle Pu, thank you for coming. I've been so busy that I didn't have the time to take care of you. I'm really sorry."
Monk Pu asked expressionlessly, "Xuan Long, are you going to bury your father in Wan An Cemetery?"
Zhu Xuanlong glared at Zhu Weiqi, blaming him for being a busybody. He then explained with a smile, "Uncle Pu, you know that we don't have any relatives in our hometown. We don't even have anyone to pay respects to us. It's convenient for us to visit it in the future. We can come here during the Qingming Festival and the Spring Festival. "
"But you have to take care of your father's last words." Monk Pu knew that what Zhu Xuanlong said was the truth, and it was also very reasonable. He couldn't refute it, not to mention that it was someone else's family matter.
Zhu Xuanlong said, "Uncle Pu, when my father passed away, I wasn't by his side. That child Weiqi doesn't speak a single word of truth. He even said that my father wants to give him the entire house. How can I believe him when he says such nonsense? "
Zhu Weiqi argued, "That's what Grandpa said!"
Sending his ashes back to his hometown was true!
It was also true that all the houses that had been demolished belonged to him!
Zhu Xuanlong's expression changed, and he berated, "What nonsense are you talking about? You have a younger brother and sister, so how can you be so immature!"
Monk Pu smiled and said, "Your father's will is with me. I can testify that Weiqi did not lie."
"Uncle Pu, I am also a son. My father has more than one grandson." Zhu Xuanlong smiled awkwardly. He knew that Monk Pu would never lie, nor would he joke about such things. Moreover, he also knew his father well. There would always be a backup plan for everything he did. It was impossible for him to leave without making a sound. There would definitely be something left behind.
Zhu Weiqi said, "Dad, I said it the day before yesterday. As long as you promise to send Grandpa's ashes back, I can give up my house and give it to my younger brother and sister."
Zhu Xuanlong snorted coldly. "How filial do you think you are?"
He resented his son for repeatedly humiliating him in public.
"Dad, that's not what I meant," Zhu Weiqi hurriedly explained.
"Director Zhu, I can be a witness." Li He looked at the time. He had no time to waste here. Although he looked down on Zhu Weiqi, for the sake of Old Man Zhu, he had to help him no matter what. Moreover, he really could not bear to see Old Man Zhu's son in such a state. He reached out to shake his hand. "My surname is Li."
Zhu Xuanlong only glanced at Li He and did not look him in the eye. He turned his head and said to Monk Pu, "Uncle Pu, every family has its own difficulties. Please understand that it's better that you don't interfere in this matter."
Monk Pu shook his head. "It's not convenient for me to interfere in your family's affairs, but you know that I have known your father for decades and we are bosom friends. I have to do this before he died."
Li He's outstretched hand was hanging awkwardly in mid-air. It had been a long time since someone had humiliated him like this.
He asked Shou Shan with a gloomy face, "The City Finance Department is a subordinate unit of the Ministry of Finance, right?"
Shou Shan instantly understood. He smiled and nodded. "Of course."
Although he had some connections over the years, he still could not go against the people from the Finance Department. However, Li He had the capital to do so. He had personally seen the people from the Ministry of Finance asking about Li He's well-being, so there was no need to talk about their relationship.
Zhu Xuanlong looked at Li He coldly, waiting for Li He to continue.
Li He continued, "Director Zhu, if you are really too busy to go back to your hometown to bury your father, I can help you apply for leave from your unit."
"Apply for leave? I want to apply for leave. "Zhu Xuanlong was neither soft nor hard. He wanted to see what tricks Li He had up his sleeve.
Li He threw the phone book in his arms to Ding Shiping. "Use my mobile phone to call Minister Wang."
Ding Shiping skillfully searched for the phone number and took out his mobile phone. He deliberately asked while dialing, "The ending numbers are two threes, right? Oh, that's right."
Zhu Xuanlong chuckled. "Don't be deliberately mystifying. Do you want me to call you?"
He was even more familiar with the department's landline number.
Ding Shiping asked doubtfully, "I didn't say it was a landline number. It's Minister Wang's personal mobile phone."
Zhu Xuanlong was too lazy to bother with him. He directly said to Monk Pu, "Uncle Pu, look at this. I really have my own difficulties. How about this? Since it's already like this today, I'll bury my father first. I'll look for you alone another day and we'll talk? "
Monk Pu shook his head. "That won't do."
"Then I have no other choice." Zhu Xuanlong gritted his teeth. He was ready to do things his own way and ignore Monk Pu. With his current status, it was really difficult to threaten him with a will.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard Li He's voice on the phone.
"Minister Wang, yes, it's me." Li He said and smiled at the phone.
"Yes, yes, the new computer company has looked for me. I have no problem with it. This is what Minister Wu says. I'll listen to Minister Wu."
"I want to help someone apply for leave. Yes, a long vacation."
Zhu Xuanlong frowned. He was thinking about who Li He was. Could such a young man really contact the mayor?
He didn't believe it. He just wanted to see Li He make a fool of himself!
"Yes, Zhu Xuanlong, a long vacation! Maybe a month. " Li He stated his request. "Mr. Zhu took care of me a lot when he was alive. I have an obligation to help his family. Comrade Zhu Xuanlong loves his job, but he can't be loyal and filial at the same time. I really can't bear to see him like this. That's why I helped him boldly make this excessive request to you. "
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Although Zhu Xuanlong didn't really believe that the person on the other side of the phone was the minister, he couldn't help but whisper to Li He anxiously. He even leaned closer to the phone to listen.
The voice on the phone replied to Li He with certainty. "It's a small matter. I'll ask my secretary to call Minister Si. Don't worry. Oh, I remember. Minister Si is coming for a meeting in the afternoon. I'll just mention it to him. "
Zhu Xuanlong trembled all over. He pointed at Li He who had hung up the phone. "You! You! You bastard! "
He wasn't sure if the person on the phone was the minister, but he felt like he had heard this voice somewhere before! But not many people knew about the meeting in the afternoon!
Even if it was an act!
How could it be so realistic?!
He vaguely felt that it was real!
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was real.
Li He smiled. "Minister Zhu, I've already applied for leave for you. I hope you'll be back soon. If you're too slow, I think you'll really have to go without pay. When I have time, I'll go to Xiangnan to pay my respects to Mr. Zhu. "
With that said, he didn't care about Zhu Xuanlong's expression and turned to leave.
If Zhu Xuanlong was a smart person, he wouldn't go against his wishes.
