059. Cooking
Zhang Siyi's face was hot, but this time he didn't feel awkward about this special title, but felt sweet in his heart. Search: \(\\\\) to watch fine literature for free.
He hurriedly ran over and got into the car, Lu Qiao followed closely, Gu Xiao patted Lu Qiao's shoulder lightly, and encouraged: "You did a good job too."
Lu Qiao clasped his hands into fists and made a prayer gesture. He looked at Gu Xiao with bright eyes and asked, "Then are we going to have a holiday tomorrow?"
Gu Xiao couldn't help laughing, nodded and said, "Let's go, when you arrive at the company in the afternoon, you can pack up and go back." He paused and said in a low voice, "Actually, every employee who stays behind until the last day can get a red envelope of 500 yuan. I'll tell HR when I go back and ask them to send it to you in advance."
"Yeah!" Lu Qiao jumped into the car and beat Zhang Siyi's arm with his fist excitedly.
"Aww... You're a lunatic!" The two of them turned into hozens in a blink of an eye.
As usual, Party A's person invited the lunch, but instead of going to the local restaurant, we went to the local hotel.
Perhaps for the director, a banquet in a hotel is more formal and more classy, but Zhang Siyi, who is used to eating hotel meals, feels that this meal is not as good as the fried tofu dregs and old vegetables and potatoes that he had eaten that day.
After the meal, several people hurried back to Haicheng. Arriving at the company in the evening, Lu Qiao packed up first, received the New Year's red envelope, and said goodbye to Zhang Siyi. The annual leave for the two and the days off for working overtime in the past few days are counted as the end of the year, and the next meeting is estimated to be over the Lantern Festival.
While arranging his desk, Zhang Siyi kept an eye on the movement behind him. He wondered if he should discuss with Gu Xiao about returning to Ningcheng, such as when to find him tomorrow night, and whether to have dinner together. Where, are there any extra beds, blah blah blah.
Thinking of this, his actions slowed down a lot, and he seemed embarrassed to be too proactive, so he kept waiting for Gu Xiao to come out first, and then he asked inadvertently.
As soon as Gu Xiao went out, he saw Zhang Siyi was still there, and said stunned, "Why haven't you gone back yet?"
Zhang Siyi quickly got up, opened his mouth, and without saying a word, Gu Xiao raised his eyebrows and asked, "Or do you want to go home with me today?"
Zhang Siyi: "...I don't have it!" (= dish=)
Why is this guy always able to say such **-like words without changing his face! ! !
Gu Xiao smiled, and greeted Zhang Siyi to go out together, saying as they walked, "Go back in the evening and have a good rest, get up tomorrow and pack your luggage, and during the half month of returning for the Chinese New Year, the house should be cleaned as well. The climate in Haicheng is humid, and the sheets and quilts are covered. After a long time, it is easy to smell, wash it if you can, and then put it on again when you come back…”
Zhang Siyi listened silently, inexplicably feeling that what Gu Xiao said was beyond the scope of a boss's concern, but more like a close brother or a master... Cough.
"I know." Zhang Siyi responded quickly.
Gu Xiao stopped immediately, as if he didn't realize that he would tell Zhang Siyi about this, he smiled and said, "I forgot, you little guy has lived abroad for so many years, you should still have the ability to take care of yourself."
Zhang Siyi: "…"
The two got into the elevator, and Gu Xiao said again: "I have a fellow apprentice and brother, who is very smart, but he is an idiot in life. Last year, he graduated with a master's degree and came to join me in Haicheng. He rented a small house by himself, but it is not like the capital to spend the winter here. There was heating, and he was tortured to death. He also paid little attention to personal hygiene. Last year, during the Chinese New Year, he went back to his hometown in Shandong, and when he came back, he called me like an enemy, saying that the quilts and pillows in his house were green. hairy…”
Zhang Siyi: "Pfft!"
Gu Xiao seemed to remember that scene, shrugged his shoulders and smiled, his eyebrows stretched, and he was very happy.
Zhang Siyi was laughing too, but seeing Gu Xiao like this suddenly became a little more appetizing. It turns out that Gu Xiao doesn't only care about himself. Look at his classmates, he may be the same to everyone.
Going downstairs, Gu Xiao said, "Okay, call me tomorrow when you're rectified." After saying that, he waved goodbye to him.
Zhang Siyi returned home, went downstairs to have dinner with Fu Xinhui, and talked about Chinese New Year's plans.
"When are you going back to your own home? You should be there during the Chinese New Year, right?" Zhang Siyi asked.
Fu Xinhui said: "Of course, I came back yesterday and went back. Haven't you been working overtime for the past two days? You didn't have a meal with you, so you just waited until today."
Zhang Siyi smiled and said, "Oh my mother, don't wait for me like this, making me look like a wild man who is out and about and can't be at home."
Fu Xinhui squinted at him, snorted with a smile, and didn't care about him.
Zhang Siyi asked, "What should you do when you go back to cheer up?"
Fu Xinhui: "Come back with me, just take a taxi. But my sister hates dogs, and my mother is allergic to pet hair. I guess I'll have to keep it in my room when I go back, but I'm not too big now. It doesn't shed too much in winter, I just hope it's a little more obedient and doesn't bark."
He said, and asked Zhang Siyi when he would go back. Zhang Siyi told Gu Xiao that he drove him back to Ningcheng with him. Fu Xinhui was not suspicious this time, just nodded and said, "Then tell me in advance. Happy new year!"
Zhang Siyi raised his cup: "Well, happy new year! I wish us all the best in the coming year!"
Early the next morning, Fu Xinhui left with cheer. Zhang Siyi slept late, tidy up the room according to Gu Xiao's instructions, washed all the clothes and quilt covers that should be washed, and set up a drying rack to hang in the living room, and he was busy at two or three in the afternoon.
He felt that it was too early to call Gu Xiao at this point, and remembering that it was going home for the Chinese New Year, he took a hot shower, dug out his most handsome and expensive down jacket from the closet and put it on, and then looked at the time. At four or five o'clock, it was almost time for dinner, so I called Gu Xiao.
The phone rang twice and was connected, Zhang Siyi said hesitantly that he was all packed and ready to go to Gu Xiao's place.
Gu Xiao asked: "How much luggage? Do you want me to pick you up?"
Zhang Siyi was stunned, and said hurriedly: "Fortunately, I will just have a schoolbag and a suitcase, and just take a taxi and come here."
Gu Xiao: "Okay, I'll send you the address via WeChat."
Zhang Siyi turned on his phone and saw the message Gu Xiao sent him: "28 Buildings in Longyuan Mountain Garden, xx Road, xx"
… FUCK! Far Mountain Garden? Isn't that the famous villa area in Haicheng
When Gu Xiao mentioned the area where he lived last time, Zhang Siyi vaguely thought of Yuanshan Garden, but he didn't expect it to be there!
The road where the garden is located was built in the 1920s and 1930s. It belonged to the out-of-boundary concession area, and many foreign nationals and celebrities lived there. The villas in Yuanshan Garden combine Chinese and foreign architectural styles with unique characteristics. Several of the former residences of celebrities have also been developed and reorganized as local cultural tourist attractions and open to the public. This street is often used as a shooting spot for film and television and photographers. .
However, most of the houses there belong to the government, and are rented out by the government to merchants or for commercial use. Even if you have money, you may not be able to live there. Zhang Siyi remembered that Gu Xiao said he was staying at his friend's place at the beginning, and now he can't help but be surprised that his friend has such a background!
The taxi came soon, and Gu Xiao sent him another message on the way, to the effect that the house was not easy to find, so he directly asked the driver to stop at the intersection and he came out to meet him.
Zhang Siyi's curiosity has been hoisted, and he watched the navigation all the way to the place, and saw Gu Xiao wearing a blue-gray coat on the side of the road from a distance.
Behind him is a Chinese-style mansion with a French neoclassical style, pure white walls, exquisitely carved lines and corners of wall columns, handsome people and beautiful scenery, forming a beautiful picture.
Seeing Zhang Siyi getting out of the car, Gu Xiao waved to him, Zhang Siyi went over, followed the other side, and turned around, and finally reached the 28th building. The entrance was a typical Shikumen, but it was very small. It was squeezed between two buildings. It is also small and hung in a corner, and it is really hard to find it if it is not left.
There is a small yard behind the door, a stone road, and a wall covered with moss. It was a little dark at 5 o'clock in the evening. Zhang Siyi looked around and vaguely saw a large water tank in the corner of the yard. , Gu Xiao had already opened the door to greet him.
After entering the door to change his shoes, Gu Xiao took a pair of plain-colored cotton mops for him, while he took his suitcase and placed it by the wall.
Like a cat entering a new territory, Zhang Siyi poked his head all the way and asked curiously, "Where's your friend?"
Gu Xiao wondered, "What friend?"
Zhang Siyi: "I remember you told me last time that you were borrowing a friend's house."
Gu Xiao hugged his arms and said, "It's true that the house belongs to him, but he doesn't live here, so I live here alone."
Zhang Siyi: "…"
Gu Xiao took off his coat and hung it on the hanger, turned around and walked in: "Okay, come in, don't act like a thief at the door."
Zhang Siyi: "..."
Contrary to Zhang Siyi's imagination, this old villa is not a floor that creaks when you step on it, and a wall of mud and plaster that hasn't been painted in a few years. It looks like it has been newly renovated in the past two years.
The floor is carpeted, and there is a plain fabric sofa in the living room. There is no TV. Instead, there is a whole row of bookshelves. A floor lamp with warm colors stands on the side, and the color layout of the soft outfit is very comfortable and atmospheric, and it is from the designer at first glance.
A few reeds and shower heads were randomly inserted into the long black bottle in the corner, which had a touch of wabi-sabi beauty.
Zhang Siyi turned his head and found a calligraphy on the wall. It was the first half of the sentence "Peaceful and far-reaching" in Gu Xiao's office - "Indifferent Mingzhi".
When he saw these words, he suddenly felt a sense of tension. This feeling was like walking into Gu Xiao's office. Whether it was a picture or a criticism, it would not make people particularly relaxed.
The same is true now, Zhang Siyi realized later that he had completely stepped into Gu Xiao's territory, surrounded by Gu Xiao's things and Gu Xiao's breath... I went, and my heartbeat became faster again! oo
I don't know if the air conditioner is on in the room, but Zhang Siyi also felt a little hot. He put down his schoolbag, unzipped his down jacket, and silently persuaded himself: "Idiot, it's not work time, Gu Xiao is not your boss, you Just treat him like an ordinary friend, so nervous!
Gu Xiao washed his hands and came out. While slowly smoothing his sleeves, he looked at Zhang Siyi and asked, "What do you want to eat? Can I cook for you?"
Zhang Siyi: "..."
Good, very gentle, such a Gu Xiao... It's so unbearable that people can't hold it, how can I break it! qaq
"I, I... will it be too much trouble for you, we can eat a little outside." Zhang Siyi stammered.
Gu Xiao tilted his head: "The restaurants outside have been closed for the past two days. Anyway, I still have some ingredients in the refrigerator. If you don't mind..."
"Of course I don't mind!" Zhang Siyi said eagerly.
Gu Xiao nodded and asked with a smile, "Then you sit down for a while?"
Zhang Siyi asked politely, "Do you want to help?"
Under normal circumstances, Zhang Siyi felt that the host would definitely refuse the help of the guests, but Gu Xiao simply nodded and said, "Okay, then come and help me wash the dishes."
... Damn, I'm just talking about it!
Zhang Siyi took off his down jacket bravely. There was no heating equipment in the kitchen. He broke the vegetables and washed it for ten minutes, his hands were freezing cold.
After washing, Zhang Siyi thought it was almost all right, but Gu Xiao didn't give him any time to rest, and handed him three more eggs, and said to him freely, "Beat the eggs."
Zhang Siyi: "… "(╯#°Д°)╯ How can this be! Okay, will you cook for me
