Chapter Fourteen: Jiao Lili
Early the next morning, I rushed to the court to file Ms. Wang’s case.
The grassroots courts in Linhai are as busy as Sun Tzu. Every case filed has to be assigned a number, and there are even professional scalpers who specialize in ranking.
At six o'clock, before it was even dark, the bailiff on night duty began to issue calls at the door.
After the lawyer who came to file the case received his number, he filed the case in order.
The lawyer, who knew that the whole process would take a long time, would bring a small bench that was easy to carry and sit on his mobile phone while reading the newspaper while moving forward in line. He even bought two hot tea eggs at 8:30 across the road.
Or pancakes for breakfast…
The profession of lawyer is really not as glamorous and high-end as shown in TV series. This scene is almost the same as that of a migrant worker brother squatting in the roadside labor market, waiting for his employer to choose him.
I also noticed that some young people were shivering in the wind. I wrapped myself in a thick windbreaker, thinking that I am still experienced.
In the past, I helped some old lawyers to file cases, including Lao Liu and Zhao Dehai. They paid two to three hundred yuan a time as labor fees. When I first started in the industry, there was not a single case. Liao Yiyang and I did this kind of errand work.
Many times in the winter, when it was so cold that my scalp was numb, I still wrapped myself in a military coat and worked.
Looking at the long queue, I remembered a sentence I had read before.
If a local city has many massage parlors and foot-washing rooms and hotels, it means that the local government is open and tolerant and suitable for business people.
If the court arbitration in any place is overcrowded and busy with business, it shows that it is a place where people can reason.
Is there really any place for reason in this world?
If we could really reason, class wouldn't be so divided.
Some people fly around with animals, fish and meat every day, and some people make noodles and steamed buns every night to pay off their debts. The world is not a fair and just place, and life is so cruel and ruthless.
Seeing that it was almost time, I called Zhang Dapao, who was introduced by Zhao Dehai.
Zhang Dapao probably didn't answer the call because it was an unfamiliar number.
Ridiculous... I got angry and didn't want to give up the 70,000 yuan case. I immediately told Zhao Dehai and edited a text message to Zhang Dapao alone. I introduced myself and said it was Zhao Dehai and Lawyer Zhao who introduced me.
of.
As a result, after waiting for half an hour, Zhang Dapao sent a text message. It was really a text message, just three words: "Got it."
I was just thinking about how to confront him, when a girl wearing a short windbreaker and high heels, carrying a large document bag, walked to one side of the queue and looked around.
This girl is pretty...
On such a cold autumn morning, my long legs were wrapped in a pair of mesh black silk, which was really burning myself to warm others. I took another look, and the girl smiled at me, came over and whispered: "Hello, how are you?
You are a lawyer, we are colleagues, there are so many people today..."
I was thinking about how to edit a text message to reply to Zhang Dapao, so I casually said: "Yeah, there are a lot of people."
This girl climbed along the pole and said, "Well, think about it, can I join the queue? I'll stand behind you so I won't delay your business."
It seems too cruel to refuse such a beautiful girl in such a cold weather.
If you don't refuse, it seems immoral. What do the people behind you who came early to queue think?
Seeing my hesitation, the girl quickly bowed and begged for mercy: "Just once, can't I treat you to dinner?"
Her eyes were quite big, her makeup was exquisite, and she had a faint scent of perfume floating in the morning breeze.
My heart skipped a beat and I said, "Okay, you can line up behind me."
The girl was very grateful and quickly stood behind me. As expected, there was a bald middle-aged lawyer behind me who was not happy: "Hey, what's up? Everyone is queuing up so early, so you're the only one who jumps in, right?"
Everyone looked over with the same hatred. I saw that the girl’s face was uneasy, so I turned around and said with a smile: "Hey, I misunderstood, I misunderstood, this is my lover, we are together, she went to buy breakfast, she came a little late.
"
I laughed softly and said, "It almost aroused public outrage. It's all because you are too beautiful and others are jealous of me."
My words made the girl cover her mouth in amusement and rolled her eyes shyly at me: "I still have to thank you, but we are not lovers."
I quickly pretended to be sad and said: "Alas, good people are not rewarded, and the bridge will be demolished when crossing the river..."
The girl took it seriously, and quickly added her contact information to me, saying that she would definitely treat me to dinner later, and it was not just a talk.
I saw that the name was Jiao Lili, and I couldn't help but think of that joke, so I said it without any hesitation: "There is a story about your last name."
"What story?" Jiao Lili exhaled hot breath and shook her hands, asking me curiously.
I whispered that there was a man whose surname was the same as yours. He went to the hospital for a physical examination. The doctor said that he was not in good health and that he was forbidden to have sex.
As a result, this man was not well educated, so he asked the doctor what he meant by prohibiting sexual intercourse.
The doctor said very impatiently: I just can't have sex.
This person got angry on the spot and said that my father’s surname was Jiao, and my grandfather’s surname was also Jiao, why couldn’t I have the surname Jiao?
After hearing this, the girl was stunned for a moment, then thought of her last name, laughed wildly, spanked me with a document bag, and said with a red face: "You are not very old, why are you so oily?"
?”
This action is very intimate.
My heart moved, I was watching something funny, I watched her stamping her feet, asking her if she was cold, and took off her windbreaker. Jiao Lili did not refuse, she covered her legs with my windbreaker, and sat on my little stool to rest.
After a while.
She must be a lawyer who has just started her career. She has just started to do many things. She will queue up and have some free time. She asked me some more about work. I answered them one by one based on my experience. Jiao Lili was a little surprised and said:
"Lawyer Lu, I didn't expect you to know so much. Then I will ask you for more advice in the future."
I smiled and said, it's easy to talk about.
I came to this position early, and the case was filed quickly. Jiao Lili asked me not to leave, but to wait for her for a while, and we would have dinner together at noon. But just as Jiao Lili came out, my phone rang, and I saw it was Zhang Dapao.
I asked, and I waited a few times before answering.
It was a very absent-minded voice: "Hey, Lawyer Xiao Lu, do you have time now? I'm at the XX Hotel. Come over and let's meet and talk about the case."
Zhang Dapao knew the fine print of "little" Lawyer Lu very clearly.
I wasn't very happy and deliberately said: "I'm still in the courthouse right now. Someone invited me to dinner at noon. Do you think I should be late?"
"I don't have time tonight, just come over now!" After Zhang Dapao said this, he hung up the phone without any intention of discussing it with me.
Seeing that I was busy with something, Jiao Lili had to sincerely say that it would be another day. I smiled and shook the car key: "Where are you going? Do you want to see me off?"
Who knew that Jiao Lili also took out a car key and said with a smile: "No, I can just go by myself."
Making money is still more important than picking up girls... I had no choice but to say goodbye, get in the car, and saw a black Q7 ding behind my car, Jiao Lili drove the car, waved to me, and left.
I looked down at my broken-down Santana, and I felt a little embarrassed.
Is Jiao Lili so rich? The second generation of rich people?
The single-wheel price of Lao Liu's A8 is still much lower than that of Jiao Lili's Q7 with a sunroof.
