Chapter 1076 Suggestions
The incident of Gao Xiaodong beating a reporter was finally downplayed with the help of the Football Association. There was no mention of Gao Xiaodong beating a reporter in the sports news that night. The next day, the major sports media in China only used very few The pen and ink mentioned that Gao Xiaodong's assistant had some conflicts with reporters.
Gao Xiaodong, Monkey and others were very satisfied with the result. Although Gao Xiaodong only kicked Li Zhiguo, it was nothing, but it would have a bad impact on Gao Xiaodong's reputation and image, and it might even affect Gao Xiaodong's life. In terms of commercial value, it is definitely best to be able to solve it in this way.
After the news came out, Gao Xiaodong called Zhang Qi and asked him if he wanted to thank Chairman Wei of the Football Association in person.
Zhang Qi said that it was not necessary. It was not yet time for Gao Xiaodong to contact the top management of the Football Association. He had greeted Chairman Wei about this matter. He would naturally do the thanking to Chairman Wei. Gao Xiaodong could just take a vacation and rest.
Zhang Qi obviously has a longer-term thinking. He knows that the Football Association is willing to help Gao Xiaodong settle this matter. They must have their own ideas. This idea is nothing more than letting Gao Xiaodong return to the national team. Although Gao Xiaodong has already returned to the national team, idea, but Gao Xiaodong cannot just go back casually. He must put forward conditions with the Football Association and strive to gain more power and support when joining the national team. If he talks to the leaders of the Football Association now, once Chairman Wei mentions returning to the national team , Gao Xiaodong is not easy to deal with.
Gao Xiaodong accepted Zhang Qi's suggestion and truly entered a state of vacation from the second day after arriving home.
Yang Fan and Yu Debao had been away for many years and were eager to go home and reunite with their relatives. They left the imperial capital and returned to Landao the next day. Later, Hou Hou, Xiao Le, Zhu Daqiang and Yu Lei also left one after another.
After Gao Xiaodong's friends left, because reporters and fans were still around, Gao Xiaodong didn't stay in the imperial capital for long. After staying for a few days, he quietly returned to his hometown in Yishan with his parents.
Gao Xiaodong's hometown has been demolished, and the construction of an ancient city is now in full swing on the original site. In order to have a place to return home, Gao's father and Gao's mother bought another house in the Garden Community in the west of Yishan.
Gao Xiaodong returned to Yishan to live in this newly bought house.
This is a house with four bedrooms and two living rooms. It has a large space and a pastoral style decoration, which is in line with Gao's father's taste.
It was almost six to seven hundred kilometers from the imperial capital to Yishan. Gao Mu still felt a little motion sick, so Gao Xiaodong didn't dare to drive fast. They walked for seven or eight hours and it was already past three o'clock in the afternoon when they got home.
Gao's father and Gao's mother rested for two hours first. When Gao's mother got up and wanted to buy vegetables to cook, she found that Gao Xiaodong had come back from cooking outside.
Gao Mu complained: "What are you doing outside?
Don’t you like to eat my fried vegetables? There are only three of us, so why are we cooking six vegetables? "
Gao Xiaodong said: "Mom, you look so tired. How can you cook? Six dishes is not much. I will have some wine with my dad alone today."
Gao Mu muttered: "You can't buy so many dishes if you drink. Your dad can drink half a catty of peanuts in a plate. What a waste."
Father Gao met his son, and his son was getting better and better in Europe. Now he was in a good mood, and he didn't bother to choke with his partner. He said with a smile: "This is not a waste, just enjoy life."
Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, "My dad has also kept pace with the times now."
Father Gao said with a smile: "My sons are already superstars. If dad doesn't keep up with the times, wouldn't that be an embarrassment to you?"
Gao Mu said: "Then you are saying that I have embarrassed my son."
Father Gao frowned and said, "What did you say? Who said you were embarrassed?"
Gao Xiaodong said quickly: "No one is being thrown away. Diligence and frugality are our fine traditions. How can we be embarrassed?"
Gao Mu said: "That's right, you can't know your last name when you have money."
Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "Mom, don't worry, I know your last name."
Gao Mu said: "What am I worried about? You don't know his last name. It's him you're worried about."
Gao Xiaodong laughed and said, "Mom, you are too ink. Okay, let's eat. If we don't eat, it will be a waste."
Father Gao touched his mouth and said, "I remember there is still more than half a bottle of Maotai in the wine cabinet. Go get it and let us drink it."
"Okay." Gao Xiaodong smiled and said to Gao's mother: "Mom, you see, my dad is also very frugal."
Gao Mu only lowered her head to place the wine glass, bowls and chopsticks and said nothing.
Gao Xiaodong brought wine, poured a full glass for his father, and then asked Gao's mother, "Would you like to drink some to relieve your fatigue?"
Gao Mu shook her head, "I'm not addicted to alcohol."
Gao's father and Gao's mother had been friends all their lives, and they always liked to quarrel. Gao Xiaodong didn't care. After he had a few drinks with his father, he saw that Gao's father was drunk. Gao Xiaodong took the opportunity to propose that he take his parents to Europe next season. suggestions.
Gao Xiaodong said: "Mom and Dad, I am in a big club now. There are very frequent competitions every year, and the time when I go home is quite short. I want to be filial to you but I can't do it. I send you money and you don't spend it. I think it's better for you to follow me." Go to England, so that our family can be together every day, and Monkey and Sister Xiaole can help me take care of you."
In fact, Gao's father and Gao's mother often discussed the matter of whether to go to Europe. They only had one son, and they were reluctant to leave Gao Xiaodong. However, Gao's mother now had high blood pressure and her cerebral blood vessels were not in good condition. Gao's father was afraid of Gao's mother's chance to fly. Something went wrong, so I didn’t dare to go abroad with Xiaodong.
Hearing Xiaodong talk about this matter again, Father Gao said again: "Xiaodong, we don't understand foreign languages. What can we do abroad? We don't know where to go even if we go to the toilet, and our eyesight goes dark. How can you let us live abroad?"
Gao Xiaodong said: "You go to England to live with me, not with others. Besides, Sister Xiaole and Monkey are here and can act as translators for you. You can also go to Huaguocheng, where most people Chinese."
Father Gao said: "That's what you say, but your mother and I can't stay at home all day. At home, I can still brag, play chess, cards and fish with my neighbors. It's too boring abroad. .”
Gao Xiaodong said with a sad face: "Dad, you and your mother are both fifty and zero. You two are the only ones at home. I don't feel relieved. Besides, I may have to play football in Europe for more than ten years. Is it possible that these ten years will be over?" Will we all live like this in the new year? I miss you."
Father Gao sighed, "Xiaodong, your mother is actually in poor health, with high blood pressure and cerebrovascular disease. I don't dare to let her fly for fear of causing problems."
"What!?" Gao Xiaodong was shocked when he heard this and grabbed his mother's hand, "My mother is not in good health? Dad, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Gao Mu said, "Isn't your father afraid that you will worry?"
Gao Xiaodong said firmly: "My mother is sick, so I'm even more worried about you staying in the country. Dad, you must go to the UK with me this time. The medical conditions abroad are good, so it's just right to treat my mother."
Father Gao said: "Then what if something happens on the plane?"
Gao Xiaodong said: "It's okay. Let's charter a flight and I'll find a private doctor to accompany me."
Gao's father and Gao's mother had only one son, and they were reluctant to let Gao Xiaodong live abroad alone. It was only because he was worried that he would not be able to live abroad because of the language barrier, and Gao's mother was ill, that he did not go abroad to accompany Gao Xiaodong. Now I see Gao Xiaodong is so determined. Wanting to take them out, Gao's father and Gao's mother hesitated.
Father Gao said: "This is no small matter. I will discuss it with your mother later."
Gao Xiaodong said: "What are we still discussing? The transportation is so convenient now. It is easy to go abroad and return home."
Gao Mu said: "Your father and I have lived in China for fifty years, and we can't make up our minds for a while."
Father Gao said: "As I get older, I don't really want to change the status quo."
Gao Xiaodong knew that this was not something that could be decided in just one sentence, so he had no choice but to say: "Well, there is still a month left anyway, so you can discuss it slowly."
