"Hello, hello." Chen Junxi picked up the phone, then went to check the caller ID, and found that it was an unfamiliar foreign number.
It's Chen Junxi.
Even though the microphone was severely distorted, Lin Mo could still easily distinguish his voice, after all, he was the person next to him who had lived with him for more than ten years.
In the previous life, Chen Junxi came out to the Chen family in a high-profile way. The news about the two of them spread in circles, and the Chen family became a laughingstock for a while. Tian Qingyu used this landline to call him countless times in private. Apart from coercion and bribery, she just cried and made trouble. Three hanged himself. In the beginning, Tian Qingyu was gentle and preached to Feng Xiaoyu so that he felt ashamed, and it was the first time that he proposed to break up with Chen Junxi; His father was beaten to death, and after he recovered from his injury, he moved out of the Chen family, left the house, and rented a house with him outside.
Tian Qingyu regarded him as the chief culprit, and couldn't hold back her proud lady's face any longer. She used this landline number to call and insult him, and her words were so dirty and vicious that people couldn't look directly at him. Later, he had no money to recharge the phone bill, so he simply threw away the phone card. When he used the phone again, no matter how he changed the number, Tian Qingyu could always find his number. One word: bitch.
After listening to it for a long time, Lin Mo became numb. She would often put the phone aside after answering the phone, and when she came back from doing a round of housework, she would just hang up the phone by herself, cursing that she was bored. Later, Tian Qingyu probably felt that this was boring, and focused her firepower on her son again. Of course, in front of Chen Junxi, she will always have a heartbroken and loving mother's face. After so long, Lin Mo felt miraculous. He had long forgotten what Tian Qingyu scolded him, but he still remembered this number.
Originally, he was worried that it would be a few years earlier that the number would not get through, but he didn't expect not only to get through, but also to be connected by Chen Junxi.
Lin Mo found that since paying the 'breakup fee' to Chen Junxi, he no longer had the patience to perfunctory him, but he was stunned for a moment when he heard his voice unexpectedly, and soon came back to his senses.
"Hello, do you know Han Xun?"
Chen Junxi looked at the phone number again in surprise. The place of origin is S province. What does a person from S province want Han Xun to do? And call them home
Thinking of Han Xun going out on a 'travel' alone, Chen Junxi had some worries in his heart.
Now is the Asian financial crisis, and the big bosses of the central government will have policies today and tomorrow. I am afraid that the economy of country Z will not be able to support it one day. If there is a hard landing, all the hard work since the reform and opening up will be in vain. For a soft landing, everyone tried their best to find a way to stimulate domestic demand and attract foreign investment. In their eyes, the Han consortium is simply a big piece of fat. Everyone is eager to take a bite, no matter who it is. It is no small credit to get the investment from Han's consortium. Therefore, it can only be said that the timing of Han Xun's return to China was chosen too well. Even if someone above speculated that Sheng Tang was his handwriting, they still turned a blind eye and gave the green light.
It's a pity that everyone envied the Chen family to get the moon first, but Han Xun disappeared without a trace of the benefits.
"I know, what's the matter?" Although the microphone was distorted, the other party's voice should not sound very old.
Lin Mo really knew Chen Junxi so well, even through the microphone, he could guess the eagerness in his heart at the moment. Han Xun was backed by Jinshan, and in the complicated circle of power in the capital, there were too many people trying to win him over. However, Han Xun is not a fool, those people in the Han consortium are not fuel-efficient lamps, how can they benefit for nothing? If you want to invest, you can. Anyway, the consortium is not short of money, but afterwards, it will take away more benefits in the country Z market. As we all know, the Han consortium likes to invest. Once there is a project that impresses them, they will inject a large amount of capital before the company goes public. After the company goes public, they will slowly sell their stocks according to the situation and withdraw from the trading market safely. Low-key, they are rarely exposed to the eyes of ordinary people, but they make a lot of profits. In Country Z, by using the same method, Han Xun tied many families of politicians to warships. Although he could not get involved in some state-owned monopoly industries, he also made a lot of money.
In the previous life, Chen Junxi had a good relationship with Han Xun. Without Han Xun's help, how could it be so easy for Chen Junxi to start a business from nothing in just a few years
It's just that Chen Junxi usually looks like a gentle and affectionate noble son, but he is a bit arbitrary in official affairs. To put it bluntly, he is headstrong and soft-hearted. He often puts "relatives and friends" in his company, regardless , as long as his mother asks, he will take it all.
Perhaps, these were his compensations to his parents, but these ill-timed 'compensations' eventually brought his company to a standstill.
Han Xun didn't agree with his ideas, so he withdrew his shares from the company early, and his company's stalls were too large, not to mention that Han Xun might not want to help him at all, even if he wanted to help, he didn't want to drag himself into the mud.
It coincided with the change of term, the Chen family stood on the wrong team, and Chen's father had been an official for many years, and his hands were "dirty", which made things worse for a while. Chen Junxi has been at odds with his family for many years, and finally raised his hand to surrender...
When everything starts over again, what will the Chen family be like without that "misplaced" love and his "blue face and troublesome water"
Lin Mo hooked the corners of his mouth, calmly, and pretended to confirm again: "Then, are you his family?"
Chen Junxi frowned and said, "Yes."
Then, he heard that the other party seemed to be relieved, "...he had a small car accident, and he was fine, but there were some minor sequelae. He couldn't tell where he was from. I only found it in his things. This phone number, can you come and pick him up?"
Chen Junxi's complexion suddenly changed, and he asked in disbelief: "Han Xun, did he... stunned?" In case something happened to Han Xun, then their family and the Han family would either be married or enmity.
"That's about it. Come and pick him up as soon as possible. I'm afraid his condition will worsen." Lin Mo was so happy that Chen Junxi misunderstood him. If he told him that Han Xun had lost his memory now, he would doubt how he knew their phone number. When they came over, they knew that Han Xun was not stupid, but had amnesia. All the attention was focused on Han Xun. Who would remember this little detail? Even if someone remembers, Han Xun will probably cover for him, right
As for settling accounts after autumn, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge. Subconsciously, Lin Mo didn't want to think about Han Xun's reaction afterwards.
Chen Junxi thought about it, and broke out in a cold sweat, and asked anxiously: "Give me the address, and I will immediately find a way to arrange someone to pick him up."
Tian Qingyu drank a bowl of pear and white fungus soup made by Tian Qianqian in the kitchen. It was very refreshing and sweet, so she asked Tian Qianqian to serve a bowl for her son to have a taste too. Tian Qianqian walked to the living room with a small bowl, and seeing Chen Junxi's face was heavy and pale, she hurriedly stepped forward and asked cautiously, "Cousin, what happened?"
Chen Junxi was writing down the address with a pen, so she didn't have time to talk to her, she listened to the voice in the microphone wisely, but didn't speak.
"... Come and pick up Han Xun as soon as possible, his condition is not very good."
Tian Qianqian's eyes widened, and she exclaimed in surprise: "What, something happened to Han Xun?"
On the other end of the phone, when Lin Mo heard Tian Qianqian's voice, a strong disgust flashed in his eyes, and before Chen Junxi could speak, he hung up the phone.
After paying the phone bill, Lin Mo went back to the store. Han Xun was still busy in the back yard. He didn't know that he had gone out. Soon, the number of people in the store gradually increased, piles of dirty bowls were carried to the back, Yu Dong was in charge of washing, Han Xun was in charge of washing with water, and then carried the clean bowls and chopsticks outside for later use.
Because the door has not been opened for the past few days, it just resumed business today, and there are more people than usual. I am so busy that before I know it, all the food in the store is sold out. Everyone cleans up the tables and chairs and washes the dishes. After sweeping the floor, he closed the door and casually cooked some chao shou wrapped up in the morning and frozen in the refrigerator for supper.
The stuffing is made of shallot pork, the skin is thin and the stuffing is big, and a little chicken is added to the stuffing to enhance the freshness and tenderness. The clear soup has a strong soup flavor. Add a little shrimp skin, coriander, shallots, two drops of sesame oil, and a little pepper. It is so fragrant that you can't wait to lick the bottom of the bowl after drinking the soup; Add chili oil, some shallots, coriander, and kohlrabi, and sprinkle a thick layer of pepper powder on the soup noodles. It is spicy, spicy, fresh and fragrant. After eating Chao Shou, the whole bowl of soup is quite enjoyable.
Han Xunguang looked at Yu Dong's big red bowl, there was a layer of black pepper powder on the skin of his hand, and the tip of his nose started to sweat, how dare he eat it? He asked Lin Mo to make him a bowl of clear soup, which was unexpectedly to his liking, and he even drank up the soup in the end.
Out of health preservation considerations, Lin Mo seldom eats late-night snacks, and he also doesn't let his grandma eat more. The old lady has a strong taste and likes spicy food, but he only cooks clear soup for her. The old lady scolded, but in her heart she knew that the good-looking grandson was thinking of her, and she couldn't hide the joy in her eyes.
Even the serious and quiet Aunt Gu couldn't help teasing her.
After supper was enjoyed happily, everyone quickly packed up their things and prepared to go home.
Aunt Wang and Aunt Gu were on the same road with Lin Mo. Everyone chatted and laughed on the way, and soon arrived at the door of the house. Aunt Wang was the first to turn back at the fork in the road. Aunt Gu's house needs to pass by the door of Lin Mo's house, but today she stopped and stood at the gate of the courtyard, looking hesitant as if she had something to say.
Lin Mo parked the tricycle, helped the old lady get out of the car, and asked Han Xun to take a bath first. He went outside the yard: "Aunt Gu, do you have anything else to do?"
I have been working in a small restaurant for half a year, and I have been busy. The food in the small restaurant is good, and I can see meat every day. Instead, Aunt Gu has gained weight. Coupled with the good salary, the debts owed by the family are being paid off day by day. Living better than a day, the wrinkles on her face looked much less than half a year ago, and she was no longer as taciturn as before. The whole person looked round and young.
Aunt Gu was grateful to Lin Mo for making her and her daughter live a good life. Thinking of her daughter's proposal last night, she thought about it all day, and now she finally made up her mind and said, "Xiao Mo, do you want to find the baker? ?”
Lin Mo smiled slightly: "Temporary important person, how can it be so easy to find, is there someone from Aunt Gu who wants to introduce me?"
Aunt Gu quietly clenched her fists, summoned up her courage and asked, "What do you think of your sister Meizi?"
Aunt Gu was afraid that Lin Mo would misunderstand, so she quickly explained: "After I learned it, I taught Meizi how to make steamed buns at home. She has a smarter brain than me and learns faster. Although she is not as good as your Aunt Li for the time being, she can definitely reach our goal. The standard of selling. You see, if possible, can you make your sister Mei Zi... If you want to feel inconvenient, just pretend that I didn't mention it today. "
Lin Mo fell silent after hearing this. Aunt Gu was probably the least ambitious and most loyal person in the snack bar. As for Aunt Gu's daughter, Lin Dongmei, he had little contact with him. In his impression, she was a very shrewd and capable woman when she grew up, and she made a lot of money in business. It's just that he vaguely heard Lin Shu mention that her life is not very good like Aunt Gu's.
Forget it, help if you can.
"Then ask Miss Mei Zi to go to the store tomorrow. But, Aunt Gu, let me put it bluntly in front of you, it's best for Sister Mei Zi to do her best, and I won't treat her badly with her salary; if I can't do it, I can only say I'm sorry. "Lin Mo didn't plan to keep opening the steamed stuffed bun shop. After Aunt Li left, he wanted to find not just a pastry chef, but a chef who could help make hot pot in the future, and it would be best to make some special snacks.
But since Aunt Gu has spoken, and Lin Dongmei is indeed a talent with potential, at worst, let's hire another person.
"Okay." Aunt Gu thanked her repeatedly and assured her daughter that she would be qualified for the job, before leaving happily.
Besides, the Chen family was shocked when Lin Mo made a phone call. After Chen Junxi told Father Chen about the matter, Father Chen thought about it and decided to notify the Han family first, and then send someone to pick up Han Xun.
After all, the Han family knew that Han Xun went on a 'travel' alone, and the Han family refused to disclose Han Xun's whereabouts to them. Now that something happened to him, it is not the Chen family's fault.
Han Zijie received an overseas call from Chen Junxi, at first he was stupefied when he heard that his baby brother was in a car accident, he almost got a heart attack, his face was blue and black, and those who didn't know thought there was something wrong with the Han's consortium . Fortunately, he still remembered that he sent Ah Hu to personally protect Han Xun, and Ah Hu would regularly report on Han Xun's situation every day. He just called and said everything was fine.
He asked the Chen family not to rush to pick up the person. He called Ah Hu, and after knowing the cause and effect, he scolded Ah Hu bloody.
[...Ah Xun is getting more and more outrageous, you tell him, let him go back to country M for me right away!]Ahu said with a dull head: [Eldest Young Master, do you think Young Master listens to you so much?]Han Zijie's forehead was throbbing with veins, and he shouted without gentlemanly demeanor: [He is not obedient, you are all used to him! I don't care what method you think of, whether it's coaxing, cheating, knocking him out and carrying him on the plane, at noon the day after tomorrow, I want to see him standing at home completely for me! Do you understand? ] Ah Hu: [... I understand. that…]
[What else?]Han Zijie raised his eyebrows in anger, and tugged at his tie irritably.
[Personally, I think it's better to cheat. Young Master, you know that my brain is not very good. Please give me an idea.]Ahu doggedly said.
[Bad brain? I think you are so smart, you actually kept it from us when something happened to Xun...] Ahu was scolded again and again by his young master, but fortunately, he finally found a feasible solution.
Lin Mo sent Aunt Gu away, locked the courtyard door, and when he turned around, he saw chubby running over, mysteriously taking out something from behind, Lin Mo saw the thing in his hand clearly, and his face instantly turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.
