Views:

Hot boiling water flowed in along the wall of the white porcelain cup, and a cloud of white mist rose from the mouth of the cup. The tea leaves floated in the cup, and soon, the porcelain white cup wall was filled with blue tea.

Seeing his daughter obediently making tea, Xie Zhipei picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "Oh, so your father is Gu Zongtang, Deputy Chief Gu."

Xie Tao's hands were a little unsteady when he put down the tea tray. These parents love to ask about their family background, but they didn't expect that even their own father did the same. With a little effort, they almost had to ask about everything about Gu Yan's family.

She quickly raised her eyelids, and gave the man in front of her a warning look. Gu Yan framed her mouth and turned her head with a serious expression.

Xie Zhipei was also quite surprised. Today, Gu Zongtang has a great reputation in both Feng'an and Beiping. In addition, the issue of the signing of the Twenty-one Articles this time has attracted the attention of the whole country. Both politicians and ordinary people are watching Seeing what this Deputy Chief Gu will say at this negotiation table, if he refuses to sign the contract, he is the hero of the country, and once he signs the contract, he is the sinner of the country.

"Recently, the Japanese have been aggressive at the negotiating table. Every time, Deputy Chief Gu turned the tide. If the government can have more officials like Deputy Chief Gu, then the country will have hope."

Although Xie Zhipei is a teacher, he still pays close attention to the hot issues of the country, and every move of the negotiating team is closely related to the country. Therefore, he knows Gu Zongtang well.

"My father often said that he was just a mediocre politician. In his eyes, a man as educated as Uncle Xie is the hope of the country's rejuvenation. Especially in this troubled world, a hundred politicians are not as good as a scholar. Because a politician can only find a way to temporarily balance the contradictions in the original political situation, but a scholar can find a new path in the darkness."

What Xie Zhipei said in these words is that his body is comfortable. The ancients often said that he is a scholar who is useless, but which scholar does not want to use his pen as a blade to open up a territory of his own in the literary and political circles. Literati are all self-proclaimed. Xie Zhipei The same is true.

Xie Tao squinted at Gu Yan's frame, but he didn't expect him to have the ability to flatter.

When her mother came out, Gu Yanframe's ability far exceeded Xie Tao's expectations.

"My aunt is from the south."

"Yes, I'm from Zhenjiang, Jiangsu." Faced with this nonsensical sentence, Mother Xie was a little dazed.

Gu Yan framed it as if it should be so, "No wonder, Jiangsu has produced beauties since ancient times, but my aunt's charm is beyond the reach of others. From the time I entered the door, looking at the furnishings in this house, I knew that this house must have a belly. The hostess, who is poetic and elegant, remembers a poem when she sees her aunt."

"What poem?"

"There is poetry and calligraphy in my stomach, and the ancients will not deceive me."

Mother Xie smiled with a few faint wrinkles, and poured tea for Gu Yan: "You are a good kid, stay for dinner today."

"Then I'd rather be respectful than obedient." Gu Yan framed solemnly.

Xie Tao stared at Gu Yan frame dumbfounded, his ability to flatter is too shocking.

The small table is full of dishes, all kinds of delicacies and delicacies, Xie Tao looked at the bowl squeezed into the corner of the table, raised his head and stared at his mother hatefully, he wanted to eat a sauced duck after coming home for so long No one did it, and now that Gu Yan's frame is here, it's even richer than New Year's.

"Oh!" Gu Yan frame sighed suddenly, causing Xie's mother to ask hurriedly, only to see him shaking his head with a smile: "It's nothing, it's just the first visit, I wanted to be polite, but such a meal, uncle and aunt, I'll wait for you My son's eating appearance may not be very good-looking, please bear with me."

Seeing his parents laughing happily, Xie Tao was surprised and helpless.

Gu Yan frame is so shameless. From this point of view, there is a reason why she has not been able to eat sauced duck after going home for so many days. She needs to take time to learn the skill of flattering.

The guests and hosts enjoyed a meal, except for Xie Tao.

Under the watchful eyes of her parents, she not only had to pour wine and food for Gu Yan, but also showed a cheerful expression. After the meal, her face froze with laughter.

But Gu Yan frame still refused to let him go. Before leaving, she looked at Xie Zhipei with those harmless eyes, "Uncle and Auntie, I'm leaving, so there's no need to send him off. It's windy outside, Xie Tao will catch cold when he goes out."

The innocence in the eyes and the sincerity in the tone deeply touched Xie Zhipei's heart, so his father waved his hand.

"Xiang'er, go see Xiao Gu off."

It's only been a few hours, has Xiao Gu already been called? If he comes a few more times, Xie Tao can't imagine such a scene.

She originally wondered why Gu Yan frame came here for no reason, but now she has no time to worry about it. Looking at his performance now, she always feels that he has a big conspiracy.

Walking on the street in front of the house, Xie Tao suddenly stopped Gu Yan frame.

"Gu Yan frame, don't come here again, okay?"

Gu Yan framed her head and smiled brightly: "Why, uncle and aunt seem to like me very much."

"I'm begging you, okay, let me live a stable life at home for a few days." After this time, Xie Tao finally realized that she could only go along the big Buddha of Gu Yan's frame, not against it.

Gu Yan framed her chin and thought for a long time before she said, "Okay, but you have to come out. At eight o'clock tomorrow morning, I'll wait for you here."

The man in front of him was smiling, narrowing his eyes slightly, like a cunning fox, without waiting for Xie Tao to speak, he put his hands in his pockets, resumed his boyish tone, and left triumphantly.

In the early morning of the next day, it snowed again in Beiping. Unlike the previous dreary weather, it was actually a rare sunny day. The sun shone on the fine snow, reflecting a dazzling silver light.

Xie Tao wore a peach red jacket with a moon white long skirt underneath, stepped on buckskin boots, and came to the entrance of the alley with a sad face. Although the weather was sunny, it was still cold and windy, with some snowflakes mixed in Scratched on her face, she shivered twice from the cold. Xie Tao stood on tiptoe, stretched his neck and looked forward, but still couldn't see the figure.

"This Gu Yan frame told me to wait for him but he didn't come."

Xie Tao was looking at the toes, while thinking about it, the laughter of children came from the park not far away, Xie Tao was distracted, anyway, waiting is waiting, why not go and have a look, thinking like this , the footsteps also moved.

In the park, snow piled up everywhere on the ground. It seems that it has not been cleared for a long time, but it has piled up as thick as half a child. A group of children chased each other and had a great time playing.

Among them is the child king, who is the craziest, with snow all over his face and a bright smile like the morning sun.

"Xie Tao, you are here!"

Gu Yanjiao crawled out of the snowdrift, his body and head were covered with snowflakes, and from time to time, some children threw snowballs at him. It seemed that he played very well with these children this morning.

Seeing his appearance, Xie Tao wanted to ignore it, but after all, he couldn't help but waved at him reluctantly.

Gu Yan framed and ran towards her, bringing a gust of cold wind, but that smile turned the cold wind into a March spring breeze. He looked at Xie Tao, and the surrounding white snow was reflected in his eyes, as if the whole world was silent After coming down, Xie Tao was the only one left in his deep eyes.

"You're such an adult, it's not shameful to have a snowball fight with a child."

Xie Tao was disgusted on his lips, but his hands were not idle, and he took the gloves to shake the snow off his body.

"They hit me first."

"So you hit them?"

"Well, you can't suffer from anyone!"

"You are really promising."

Gu Yan burst into laughter, picked up a snowball and stuffed it into Xie Tao's hand.

"It's actually quite fun, do you want to try it?"

Xie Tao quickly stepped back, shaking his head like a rattle.

"don't want!"

As soon as the words fell, a snowball hit the back of Xie Tao's head. Looking back, a little fat man smiled at him with a few snowballs in his arms. The pain was not painful, but her hair... Xie Tao grabbed it Grabbing the snow on the hair and pointing at him.

"you… "

Before he could finish speaking, another snowball hit his chest.

"Boy, that's enough, if you mess with me again, I'll beat you up..."

"Boom!" A snowball hit Xie Tao's forehead, and Gu Yan framed a gloating laugh, and then all the children in the park's snowballs hit Xie Tao.

Gu Yan frame swept her legs, raised a snowflake, wrapped her arms around Xie Tao's shoulders, and ran all the way with her, one by one snowballs hit his back and burst out, like gorgeous fireworks.

There was still fine snow in the sky, and a few rays of sunlight cast down, the two of them ran along the sunshine, beside the peaceful and peaceful city of Beiping, and behind them were children laughing and laughing.

When they could no longer see those children, the two sat exhausted on a bench by the street to rest.

Xie Tao fell back, leaning on the back of the chair and panting heavily, she looked at Gu Yan frame who was in the same situation beside her and said: "I have been crazy with you all morning, now you can let me go home .”

"Okay, I just happened to be hungry, so I'm going to your house for lunch." Gu Yan suddenly regained her energy, sitting upright, looking at her with eyes as bright as stars.

"Hello!" Xie Tao sat up straight and stared at him guardedly.

She and Gu Yan framed a stalemate for a while, maintaining the principle that the enemy will not move and I will not move, but she gritted her teeth and refused to agree.

Gu Yan was helpless, smiled and said: "You don't want me to go, that's easy, you go out to eat with me, what do you want to eat?"

Xie Tao narrowed his eyes and cursed, "Shameless."

Gu Yan could see that she was indeed annoyed, so her face changed and she looked at her embarrassingly.

Xie Tao didn't care how pitiful he was, he just turned his head away and didn't want to talk to him anymore.

The handsome man next to him had a smile on his face again, and he reported the names of all the dishes in Beiping, with a resolute look that he would never give up until he achieved his goal.

Xie Tao couldn't listen anymore, so he had to say: "Soymilk, I want to drink soymilk, I haven't had breakfast yet!"

"Wait for me!" Gu Yan slapped her forehead, as if remembering something important, she rushed away, leaving behind a bewildered Xie Tao.
