Ten years is enough to bring about earth-shaking changes in the world.
Xu Niansheng got off work and rode his bicycle home. Time seems to have treated this man very favorably, without leaving any marks on his face, still wearing glasses, with a refined appearance, when Wen Qing saw him, he would say something like: a beast in clothes.
When he walked to the entrance of the alley, Xu Niansheng happened to meet Jinyan and Dachuan brothers. They were handsome and tall in military uniforms, and a group of young girls they provoked turned their heads frequently.
"Are you back?" Xu Niansheng greeted them as he got out of the car.
"Uncle, why are you still riding this broken bicycle? You can hear the creaking sound from far away."
Xu Jinyan is much more cheerful than before, and he has come out of the shadow of the past, and he is no longer willing to be his uncle's cheap son. The main reason is that he feels that the uncle is already old and has not yet dated. It is likely that others saw him carrying his oil bottle, so no one introduced him.
Wang Dachuan next to him is a little more silent than when he was a child. He has a sharp-edged face that is five points similar to Wen Qing. He has been in the army for so many years and has not tanned much. His handsome and handsome appearance is quite attractive to young girls. .
Whenever Xu Niansheng saw his face, he always thought of the little girl who said she wanted to marry him back then. Said to marry him, and then ran away without a trace.
Wang Dachuan called Uncle Xu at him, and Xu Niansheng came back to his senses, and said with a smile, "Dachuan, are you busy in the army?"
"Just finished the exercise, there is nothing to do next."
Several people talked and walked home.
After Xu Jianguo was reinstated, he was assigned this house. Xu Niansheng lived here even before he got married, and Xu Jinyan and Wang Dachuan also went here when they were on vacation. Anyway, there were only a few of them left in their house, so it would be more lively.
Today was a half-day vacation in the army, so all the talents came back. Usually there are only Xu Jianguo and Xu Niansheng father and son in the family. He Qiong would also come here often. Most of the old friends of their generation didn't make it through, so the two of them came back without any illness or disaster.
Xu Niansheng came home and cooked a table of dishes for the two little ones. As soon as the meal was ready, He Qiong came over with a bottle of wine, "Hey, are you back today?"
Xu Jianguo laughed and said, "Just now I asked Jinyan to call you, but you came here by smelling it yourself."
The two families are close, but they often visit each other.
They are all acquaintances, and there is no need to greet them. After washing their hands, they all sit down and eat. He Qiong took a chopstick of fish meat, tasted it, and couldn't help sighing, "You say, life is better now, and there is no shortage of meat, why do I feel that the food is not as good as it used to be?"
"What? Are you addicted to eating wild vegetables and chaff dumplings?" Xu Jianguo laughed.
"That can't be, I mean that year's New Year's Eve dinner, Dani's girl made it, there were braised pork, stewed pork ribs with potatoes, and the big dumplings we made. I always thought it was the most beautiful thing I ate in my life. One meal." He Qiong smacked his lips, recalling the taste.
When he said this, everyone immediately felt the same, "Da Ni's craftsmanship is really good." After finishing speaking, Xu Jianguo sighed again, "I don't know where that girl went, and I haven't heard from her for so many years."
For a while, the restaurant fell silent, especially Wang Dachuan, who lowered his head and was very depressed. When his sister left, he left him a lot of money, so he hasn't suffered much in these years. The Xu family also took good care of him, but how could these be compared to his sister? He missed his sister very much, and he would go back to Wangjiaao every year, just afraid that she would suddenly go back and not find him.
Because she said she would definitely come back.
The atmosphere was a little heavy, Xu Niansheng saw that Wang Dachuan was not in a good mood, so he quickly changed the subject, "I'm going to Shanghai on business tomorrow, do you have anything you want me to bring? Shanghai is more prosperous than ours, and there are more things."
"Uncle, why are you going to Shanghai?" Xu Jinyan also knew that the topic just now had aroused the sadness of his good brother, so he changed the subject according to his uncle's words.
"There is a female chaebol in the United States who wants to invest in China. This is the first batch of overseas investment after the opening to the outside world. The higher-ups pay more attention to it. Let me assist in the reception." Xu Niansheng briefly explained the situation.
He Qiong became interested and asked, "Is that the Chinese rich woman? The one who started from scratch in the United States and is known as the financial queen of Wall Street?"
"Well, it's her." Xu Niansheng nodded.
"Then you must entertain him well and try to keep him!" He Qiong exclaimed, but he just said that, and he also knew that his family's foundation is so big in the United States, how could he stay
"Our country is short of this kind of rich and sentimental people. If someone takes the lead, there will be more overseas Chinese who come back in the future." Xu Jianguo said.
About this legendary rich woman, the upper echelon has already spread, and everyone here knows a little bit. Therefore, as soon as this topic was opened, several people discussed it enthusiastically, sweeping away the heavy atmosphere just now.
After the meal, He Qiong left, Xu Jinyan and Wang Dachuan also returned to the army, and Xu Niansheng went back to his room to pack his luggage. After packing a few pieces of clothes, he suddenly remembered something. He walked to the desk and opened the second drawer. There was a small velvet box inside.
Xu Niansheng picked it up and gently opened it. Inside was a straw woven ring. This was given to him by Wen Qing the day before he left. She said, "It's fashionable for people in the city to propose and give rings, so let's just make do with this."
In fact, she made it up when she was lighting the fire.
Thinking of the original scene, Xu Niansheng couldn't help laughing. He didn't even know what kind of mentality he had at the time to secretly treasure this ring? I didn't lose it during the years in the country.
Xu Niansheng closed the lid, feeling a little melancholy, recently he always thought of that girl for no reason. Some things, which you don't notice at first, will slowly ferment and swell over time until you can no longer ignore them.
The reception this time is more important, and the higher-ups attach great importance to it. Dozens of officials have come to pick up the plane alone. We must let the visitors see their sincerity. They even sent troops to protect them along the way. This time it was a God of Wealth, so no accident should happen in their country.
As the main person in charge, Xu Niansheng greeted the mayor of Shanghai while waiting. Not long after, the roar of the plane came, and everyone was waiting, looking forward to the legendary rich woman.
When Wen Qing set foot on this land again, he felt a sense of belonging in his heart. No wonder the ancients always said that fallen leaves return to their roots, no matter how prosperous the outside world is, there is no comfort at home.
Wen Qing got off the plane and saw Xu Niansheng in the reception crowd at a glance. There was no way, her old man was still so outstanding, it was hard to ignore him.
"Comrade Wang Wenqing, on behalf of the country, I welcome you back!"
Seeing that Xu Niansheng was slow, the mayor of Shanghai hurried forward to shake hands with her. Wen Qing smiled very kindly and said, "Hello, comrade." Then he shook hands with other people one by one.
Xu Niansheng was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses, and he naturally fell behind. When Wen Qing walked in front of him, everyone was looking at him. As the main receptionist, he should be at the front, but somehow he fell behind.
Wen Qing didn't shake hands with him, but gave him a hug with open arms, "Long time no see."
Everyone was stunned and looked at each other. Well, I heard that the United States is relatively open. When people meet, they hug and even kiss on the cheek. Well, this is etiquette.
However, long time no see means...
"You know each other?"
"Yes." Wen Qing nodded, "Comrade Xu Niansheng is my fiancé."
One stone caused a thousand waves of shock, and after the eyeballs of the ground fell out of shock, everyone looked at Xu Niansheng with admiration, this is really awesome! He quietly took down the richest woman in the United States. Compared with investment, feelings, etc., keeping the God of Wealth in China is the real deal!
Xu Niansheng was both surprised and delighted, no matter what he would never have imagined that the person who came was the little girl who had been missing for nearly ten years! After disappearing for ten years, there was such a big fight! this girl...
A group of people left the airport in a mighty manner. The reception group forgiven Wenqing for just getting off the plane, and instead of directly starting the investigation, they arranged for her to stay in a guest house to rest. In the evening, another banquet was prepared to welcome her.
And the relationship between her and Xu Niansheng was quickly reported.
Regarding this rich woman, I have never found out her background before. I only know that she is from Huaguo, and she appeared on the streets of the United States as if out of thin air ten years ago. No one can find out her origin. She offered to return to China to invest, and Hua Guo also took the risk, because she didn't know her details, so she couldn't be sure whether she was an enemy or a friend.
It stands to reason that such unstable factors would make it impossible for her to return to China, but because of the large amount of funds she promised and the very exciting delivery of technical talents, the higher-ups took this risk. But the army was sent, on the one hand for protection, and on the other hand for surveillance.
Now, now that she knows her background, and also knows her origin with Huaguo, she has both a fiancé and a sibling brother, which makes people feel at ease a lot.
After the welcome banquet, it fell on Xu Niansheng to accompany Wen Qing back to the reception.
Xu Niansheng had been absent-minded ever since he met Wen Qing, with a lot of thoughts in his mind, as if he had a lot to say, but when he was alone with her, he found that he couldn't say a word.
In the end, he just asked dryly, "Are you okay?"
Wen Qing couldn't help laughing, "I haven't seen you for so many years, why are you still the same? You haven't changed at all." Not only the appearance, but also this innocent personality.
Her smile broke the sense of strange distance just now, as if she had returned to the casual way of getting along in the past, Xu Niansheng immediately relaxed and smiled, "You walked cleanly, and you ran here alone without saying hello. America, you don’t know how anxious Okawa was at that time.”
"I have greeted you, okay?" They all told them that they are going to go out, although this trip is a bit far away and the time is a bit long, "By the way, is there only the Okawa Express? Are you in no hurry?"
Wen Qing saw that his ears were red, and then said leisurely, "Nian Sheng, I'm back, let's take the time to get the certificate."
