Access to Taoyuan District has always been strict. Vehicles entering and exiting need to be guaranteed by the owner to apply for an access permit, and the owner must notify the park security when he is at home before the security can let him go. Although Xu Tianyin's license plate was very impressive, Xia Shao still called her parents when they were about to get home and asked them to come out and notify the security guard to avoid getting into trouble when they came back.
The car drove into Dongshi and did not come back for half a year. The development of Dongshi can be said to be rapid. There are new commercial buildings everywhere and they are developing very fast. Looking at the familiar scenery of her hometown outside the car window, Xia Shao felt like returning home. She instructed Xu Tianyin to drive the car into the suburbs and drive all the way to Taoyuan District.
The car was driving on a clean road and saw a middle-aged couple standing at the entrance of the park from a distance. They were Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan.
The couple thought that Xia Shao would come back in the Huaxia Group's commercial vehicle, and did not pay any attention to the Land Rover that drove over. Unexpectedly, the car stopped at the gate of the community.
They had never seen this car in the community before, so the couple took a look at the car. Li Juan doesn't know much about cars, but she just thinks this car is tall and domineering, different from the high-end cars she usually sees. But Xia Zhiyuan glanced at the license plate!
hiss! Provincial military region license plate? This license plate looks like the headquarters’ car! Do the residents of the park have anything to do with it
The surprise at this glance did not last long. Before Xia Zhiyuan had time to think about it, he saw the car door open. He stared at the car and thought: Could it be that the senior officials from the provincial military region were coming down here
But as soon as the thought flashed through his mind, he saw a white figure flying out of the car.
"Dad! Mom!" Xia Shao got out of the car, with a smile on her face, and rushed towards her mother first.
Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan were stunned!
I thought my daughter was still behind me, but why did she get out of the car
But suddenly seeing the daughter they had been thinking about day and night was a real surprise for the couple!
Li Juan hugged her daughter who rushed towards her with a smile, her eyes immediately turned red.
Xia Zhiyuan's eyes immediately turned red when he looked at the man who got out of the car next.
Who is this guy
Who is this kid!
But Li Juan hadn't noticed Xu Tianyin yet. She just hugged her daughter. After the mother and daughter hugged each other for a while, Li Juan pulled Xia Shao away and looked her up and down. Seeing this, I feel happy and sad at the same time. What I'm happy about is that my daughter is married. I haven't seen her for only half a year, and she is even more beautiful. Look at this plain cheongsam and this cashmere coat with lantern sleeves, it looks like a lady during the Republic of China period! But the sad thing is that my daughter is thinner than when she was in school, and look at her chin, which is now pointed. I saw her in a newspaper and TV a few days ago and she said that her daughter had lost weight. Her husband also said that she missed her daughter too much and thought too much. Now look, where did she get it wrong? Facts have proved that a mother still feels sorry for her daughter!
Li Juan wiped the corners of her eyes and glared at her husband. With this glare, he realized that something was not right with his husband.
Logically speaking, he hasn't seen his daughter for half a year. As soon as he got off the car, he, as a father, should be excited for a while. Come and see his daughter, right? Why do you just stand there without moving
Li Juan was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that Xia Zhiyuan was looking at the car in front of her, preparing for it with an unprecedented momentum, like a bullfight. She was surprised and then followed her husband's gaze and looked forward.
Seeing this, I couldn’t help but be surprised! His mouth opened.
Yo! This young man is so noble!
This black suit is quite expensive considering its style! Which family's noble son? Moreover, this aura looks cold and sharp, which is quite scary.
The most important thing is, does this car belong to him? How did his daughter get out of his car
Only then did Li Juan notice this problem. My daughter came back in this man's car. Why didn't she take the company car? What is the relationship between my daughter and this young man
Li Juan took a breath. She suddenly understood why her husband was so cautious. She also quickly pulled her daughter behind her to protect her, and looked at Xu Tianyin warily. Don't blame her for thinking too much, her daughter is too good, and it's normal for men to like her. She and Xia Zhiyuan were not the kind of people whose families were well-off and whose eyes only grew above their heads, and no one looked down upon them. It's just that my daughter is too young now. She is only seventeen after the New Year. Isn't it nonsense to talk about a partner now? What if someone bullies you
Xia Shao noticed her parents' reaction. Although she had a smile on her face, she had a wry smile. I had expected this to be the case.
She turned around and looked at Xu Tianyin. I found that he was staring at his father Xia Zhiyuan, as if it was a competition between men. But when he noticed the look she was looking at, he looked up. His eyes were dark and deep, with a night-like light, and he had the usual cute and cute expression, looking pitiful.
Xia Shao smiled sullenly, but instead of rescuing Xu Tianyin, she cast a serious look at him. The look in her eyes was like a knife, and the warning was obvious - call him uncle and aunt! If you dare to call me wrong, you will be out of luck!
After receiving her look, the man pursed his thin lips, turned around silently, went to the trunk of the car, took out large and small packages of supplement gifts, looked at Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan, stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, uncle, hello aunt. ."
Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan were stunned. They stared at the exaggerated pile of things Xu Tianyin handed over. How could they be in the mood to reach out and take it
But Xia Shao laughed out loud without mercy - Please! Senior brother, why are you handing out gifts now? It’s still at the entrance of the park! It's still a long way to drive from here to your home. Do you plan on letting them carry it all the way back
Xia Shao's unkind laughter made Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan look back. Although the two of them were very wary of Xu Tianyin's sudden appearance, they were not the kind of people who would look at others' faces without asking anything. Reasonable. So Xia Zhiyuan asked: "Xiao Shao, who is this?"
"Dad, Mom, he is my senior brother. He came back with me to visit Master this time." Xia Shao said with a smile.
Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan were stunned after hearing this, "Senior brother? When did you kid have a senior brother?"
"I didn't tell you before, but he is indeed my senior brother. He started his career many years earlier than me, and he has been with the master longer than me. My senior brother works in Qingshi, and we met him. He heard that the master was here, so we We made an appointment to come back together to visit Master." Xia Shao explained with a smile, her eyes honest. She didn't lie, every word was truer than gold.
When the couple heard this, they saw that Xia Shao's expression was natural and there was no flaw in his words. Xia Zhiyuan then asked: "So, this is Mr. Tang's disciple?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Shao looked at Xu Tianyin with a smile and joked: "Brother, my dad said you are Master's disciple."
Xu Tianyin glanced at her, changed all the gifts in one hand, nodded slightly to Xia Zhiyuan, stretched out his hand and said, "Uncle, Xu Tianyin."
When Xia Zhiyuan saw it, he slowly lowered his guard and showed a comfortable smile. He immediately changed his face, shook hands with Xu Tianyin with a smile, and said: "Oh, it turns out to be Mr. Tang." "My disciple, why didn't you tell me earlier? I thought Xiao Shaozi brought a boyfriend back! This child is so young, I was so scared that I broke out in a cold sweat. There was a misunderstanding just now, young man, don't blame uncle."
"What are you guessing about?" Li Juan glared at Xia Zhiyuan and smiled at Xu Tianyin. Seeing that he was carrying so many gifts, she smiled and said, "Come here as soon as you come, what are you doing with these gifts for us?" ? It’s weird to spend money. Put it in the car quickly, look at these big and small bags, you’re not too tired.”
The couple said one sentence to each other, and Xia Shao was stunned when she saw this scene. After being away from home for half a year, my parents' temperaments are more cheerful than before, and at least their social skills are better than before. Especially mother, it is already good that she can still speak in front of a stranger like Xu Tianyin.
But what surprised Xia Shao even more was Xu Tianyin! Did she hear it correctly just now? Is he chatting with someone? Will he still chat with others
Xia Shao looked at Xu Tianyin with surprise in her eyes. She smiled and walked over to help him. She put the gift she was carrying back in the car. Then she turned to her parents and said, "First, get a pass for your senior brother's car. Then he can come and go." convenient."
Xia Zhiyuan turned around and went to the security room to make a guarantee and apply for a pass. Xia Shao and her mother got into Xu Tianyin's car. The mother and daughter sat in the back, and Xu Tianyin came over to fasten their seat belts. Xia Shao was used to him doing these things, but Li Juan was not used to it. Seeing him fasten her seat belt in person, she was a little flattered and quickly waved her hand and said she would come.
She was still a little scared of this young man. Seeing his cold and noble demeanor, he fastened his seat belt himself? Isn't this a joke
Xu Tianyin lowered his head and said nothing, but insisted on fastening the seat belt for Li Juan. During the process, he kept his head down and his eyes were serious. Although it was a small thing, he did it very carefully, just like he usually did with Xia Shao. After tying it up, he raised his eyes and nodded to Li Juan, silently closed the car door and got into the driver's seat.
Li Juan couldn't come to her senses and turned to look at her daughter. Xia Shao held her mother's arm and smiled.
This is also the reason why she doesn't let Xu Tianyin tell her parents about their relationship now. Not only because he is still too young in the eyes of his parents, but also because with Xu Tianyin's temperament, it is difficult to gain his parents' approval in a single glance. His parents will definitely think that he is too cold and stuffy. It will take time for his temper to get better. Therefore, this can be regarded as an opportunity for her parents to get to know him, not to be defensive, and to treat him with a normal heart. Over time, I believe they will fall in love with him. In a few years, when she reaches an age, she will disclose the matter between the two of them to her parents, and it will be easier for them to accept it.
Xia Zhiyuan quickly applied for the pass and returned, putting it in Xu Tianyin's car. He sat in the passenger seat and pointed the direction to Xu Tianyin. The car drove in the leisurely and unique park. Because Xu Tianyin's aura was too cold and too strong, It made Li Juan afraid to speak loudly, but sitting with her daughter, she couldn't help but ask for help. In the end, she had to lower her voice and it became a whisper between mother and daughter.
"You didn't eat at noon, did you? Your dad and I didn't eat either. We sat down to give some food to your master. He was worried about you coming back, so he didn't eat much. We discussed waiting for you to come back and cook a table of delicious food. Invite your master over and have a meal together. I have prepared the dishes, washed them, and cut them, and they are just waiting for you to come home."
Li Juan was chattering, Xia Shao and her mother were holding arms and cuddling together, smiling peacefully.
The car drove outside the house soon. Li Juan got out of the car first and went home to cook. Xia Shao first accompanied Xu Tianyin to see his master. Xia Zhiyuan did not get out of the car either, and the three of them went to Tang Zongbo's house together.
The two houses were only about ten minutes' walk away, and it took a short drive to get there. After getting off the car, Xu Tianyin looked at the house first, and Xia Shao smiled and asked, "How is it? This house is pretty good, isn't it? Master lives here quite well. Okay, senior brother, don’t worry.”
"Yes." Xu Tianyin nodded, with a faint smile on his lips, and he wanted to hold Xia Shao's hand out of habit.
Xia Shao gave him a wary look, glanced at the back of Xia Zhiyuan who had already walked into the house, and gave Xu Tianyin a murderous look. The man silently retracted his hand and only looked at her with his eyes.
Xia Shao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she pinched his arm and whispered: "Brother, please be careful today, do you hear me? Go in and see Master!"
Xia Shao was afraid that the two of them would linger behind and attract the attention of Xia Zhiyuan in front. After speaking, she hurried to the car to take out the New Year's clothes and supplements she bought for her master. Xu Tianyin helped her get them together, and then the two of them entered the house. .
Xia Zhiyuan had already pushed Tang Zongbo to the door of the house. When he saw two disciples coming in carrying large and small bags, the old man smiled with a red face and his beard flew up, "Look at you two, what are you bringing? Come back and see Look at me, this old guy, I’m content!”
"How can I do that? I even bought you new clothes for the New Year! Master, do you want to go and try them out now?" Xia Shao walked over with a smile and carried things, squatted next to the old man, looked up at Tang Zongbo, "Master You haven’t seen me for half a year, do you want to?"
After hearing this, Xia Zhiyuan laughed and scolded: "You kid, you are neither old nor young! You haven't come back to see your master for half a year. It should be whether you miss your elders. Why do you ask your elders if they miss you?" ? No rules!"
Tang Zongbo stroked his white beard and waved with a smile, "Zhiyuan, don't talk about this girl. I'm used to it. She has been like this since she was a child."
Xia Zhiyuan smiled and glanced at his daughter, then realized that Xu Tianyin had been standing silently, with a slight smile on his face, looking at this warm scene.
It wasn't until the three of them stopped talking that he looked at Tang Zongbo and said, "Master."
Tang Zongbo smiled and nodded. He looked at Xu Tianyin as if he were his son. He was not as happy as when he faced Xia Shao, but he was more fatherly and kind. He nodded and said: "It's good to be here. You can also Get these things! Come on, come on, it’s cold outside, come sit inside.”
The four of them entered the house. Xu Tianyin put down the supplements and went to Tang Zongbo's bedroom. He took out a small blanket and put it on the old man's legs. He knelt down and pinched the old man's legs, as if inspecting his legs. Case.
"Don't look at it. I've told you so many times. It's an old disease that won't get better. Fortunately, I haven't neglected my energy cultivation over the years. It's already good that I can keep this leg from shrinking. You kid Don't worry about it all the time." Tang Zongbo sighed.
Xu Tianyin, however, lowered his head and frowned. Seeing that the master and apprentice had just met, the joyful atmosphere was about to turn melancholy again. Xia Shao quickly smiled and took out the clothes she bought for the New Year and stuffed them into Tang Zongbo's arms. , "Master, take a look at the clothes I bought for you and try them on to see if they fit."
As soon as she took it out, the bright red Tang suit embroidered with blessings and longevity patterns immediately made people's eyes brighter. Xia Zhiyuan kept saying yes, but Tang Zongbo kept evading, "No, no, this color is too red! You girl, buy it for Master." What are you doing with such fancy clothes?”
"Fancy? This is festive! Master or Feng Shui master, can't you tell the difference between festive and fancy? Wearing such clothes during the New Year will make the coming year prosperous." Xia Shao laughed.
Xia Zhiyuan also quickly agreed to push Tang Zongbo into the house to try. Xu Tianyin stood up and took his place, "Uncle, let me do it."
He nodded to Xia Zhiyuan and then led Tang Zongbo into the house.
This made Xia Zhiyuan a little stunned. The moment he entered the room, he could see that this young man was quite filial. He looks cold and taciturn, but he is kind to the elderly. Especially his attentiveness, he brought a blanket to the old man to cover his legs as soon as he entered the house, which was even more surprising just now. He was actually willing to push the old man into the house and help him change clothes, which is rare among young people nowadays.
Mr. Tang’s apprentice should also be a Feng Shui master, right? But why do you drive a car from the provincial military region? This young man looks quite aristocratic, and his family situation is good, right
He looked at his daughter and finally shook his head. I feel that I am not familiar with this young man, so it is better not to inquire about his affairs. Lest people think he wants to get married. He didn't want to get married. His daughter was still so young, so it was definitely inappropriate. In this case, it's better not to inquire.
When Tang Zongbo went to the house to change clothes, Xia Shao went to make tea. She brought back the new tea she bought from Qingshi. The fragrance of the tea was refreshing as soon as she served it. When she brought the tea, Tang Zongbo was also pushed out by Xu Tianyin. As soon as he came out, he looked at Xia Shao, his eyes were light and soft, and he nodded and said, "It's appropriate."
Xia Shao's eyes were already bright!
I saw the old man wearing a bright red Tang suit embroidered with blessings and longevity patterns on his upper body and navy blue trousers on his lower body. He was sitting in a wheelchair. He had a ruddy complexion and bright eyes, and was kind yet dignified. Although he said that the color was too bright, he kept stroking his beard with his hands, and his brows were filled with excitement.
Xia Shao laughed when she saw it, but remembering that her mother was still cooking at home, she thought about going back to help, so she asked her father and senior brother to talk to the master first, and then push the master to the house later. Anyway, there were still people outside at this time. When the sun shines, it's time to push the old man out for a walk.
When she got home, she saw her mother, Li Juan, busy in the kitchen. Xia Shao hurried back to the house, changed her clothes, went to the kitchen to wash her hands and help. Li Juan saw her and hurriedly asked her, "How can I help you? I'm tired from riding in the car all day. Go back to the house and rest for a while! I'll call you when the meal is ready."
How could Xia Shao agree? She just stayed with her mother, and Li Juan also knew her temperament. Since she couldn't drive her away, she had no choice but to let her go. At worst, she would be forced to go to bed early at night.
The mother and daughter were busy in the kitchen, chatting about daily life. Li Juan looked at her daughter who was helping to pick up the plates, and smiled a little unnaturally, "Xiao Shao, Mom has something to ask you."
Xia Shao was stunned, her heart pounding, but she smiled sweetly and said, "Mom, if you have anything to say, just ask. Why are you hesitating?"
Of course Li Juan was embarrassed. She had never talked about these things with her daughter since she was a child. I always feel that she is still young and not ready yet. But who would have thought that she would do great things quietly? She felt that her daughter had grown up, so she mentioned it now. But she had never said that, so of course she was a little embarrassed to speak suddenly. But no matter how embarrassed I am, I have to say this to prevent my daughter from suffering a disadvantage in the future!
"Mom wants to ask you, are you and your senior brother... okay?"
Xia Shao had long expected that her mother would make inquiries, so she was not surprised at all when she heard this. She didn't even pause to pick up the plate, and her expression was even more natural, "What can it be? Mom, don't think too much about it." ."
"It's fine if it's nothing. Mom, I can tell you that you are not old enough to date a partner now. Regardless of whether you have such a company or not, you are still a girl. There are many men in society who have a lot of tricks. It's nothing to you. Experienced girls are always sure to coax you! You have to be careful, don’t suffer a loss!" Li Juan only remembered this when she saw Xu Tianyin. Although this child is her daughter's senior brother, there is no other relationship. But what about other men? When she thought about it, she couldn't help but feel a little worried, secretly wondering why she hadn't told her daughter about these things earlier, what if something happened to her
"How about, after the New Year, Mom will go to school with you, buy a house outside, and take care of your life." Li Juan said while putting vegetables in the pot and looking at her daughter.
When Xia Shao heard this, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Mom, look how worried you are. You went to Qingshi, what will happen to my dad? What will happen to my master? Don't worry, I usually have to be busy with the company and other things You are studying, how can you have time to think about other things?"
Li Juan actually knew that it was unrealistic for her to go to Qingshi, but she just couldn't rest assured. After hearing what my daughter said, I felt that what she said made sense. She was so busy all day long, how could she have any other energy? But when she thought about it, she couldn't help but look at her daughter's thin face, and immediately felt distressed again, so she hurriedly cooked. All she cooks are meat dishes such as sweet and sour fish, eight-treasure duck, and braised pork. She insists that she must make Xia Shao fat during the Chinese New Year.
After an hour of preparation, the meal was finally served.
Xia Zhiyuan led the way, and Xu Tianyin pushed Tang Zongbo. The three of them arrived at the house just in time, and the food was being served. In winter, the house in the north has heating, and the home has air conditioning. Once the door is closed, the house is warm, and there is a table full of sumptuous meals. Five people sit around the table, enjoying themselves in the classic and elegant house.
Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan had already known Tang Zongbo for a long time, and Xia Shao was back today, so even the presence of a cold and taciturn person like Xu Tianyin did not affect the happy atmosphere at the table. Xu Tianyin drank some wine with Tang Zongbo and Xia Zhiyuan, and even Xia Shao drank a little happily. But when the cups were clinking during the dinner, she could not help but pay attention to Xu Tianyin. I found that he always looked at the hot food on the table and ate very slowly.
She knew how fast he ate, perhaps because of past experiences, he always ate very quickly and finished his food in a hurry. She reminded him of this every time he ate, and he learned to slow down a bit, but he had never chewed so carefully and carefully with every bite as he did today.
This made Xia Shao feel a little distressed, but since her parents were there, she couldn't do it too obviously, so when she was picking up vegetables for her master and parents, she also picked some for Xu Tianyin so that he could eat well.
But while eating, Li Juan couldn't help but look at Xu Tianyin. This young man has a really good appearance and temperament. At first glance, he looks like a good person among people, but he is a bit taciturn. He hasn't said a word since the meal, which makes people feel weird.
But Li Juan found that Xu Tianyin's expression at the dinner table was much better than when she saw him at the entrance of the park just now. At least he's not so cold anymore, and he can still smile. Although his smile is a little shallower, he is still easier to get close to than before.
This made it easier to get closer, and Li Juan became bolder. She began to smile and tentatively called Xu Tianyin: "Xiao Xu."
As soon as Xu Tianyin heard Li Juan calling him, he raised his head, put down his bowl and chopsticks, sat down, and nodded, "Auntie."
Li Juan saw him put down the bowl and chopsticks, smiled a little sheepishly, and quickly greeted: "You don't have to stop to eat your food. I'm just asking casually. Haha, um... how old are you?"
"Twenty-six."
"Hey, you're twenty-six, but you can't tell... It's time to start a family at this age. Are you married?"
"No."
"No? It's time to start a family. Do you have a partner?"
"have."
"Yes? I don't know whose daughter is so lucky to find such a handsome young man. When will she get married?"
"In two years."
"Two years later? Isn't it almost thirty? Oh, that's quite late! If you have a partner, get married early. As a boy, you can start a career only after you have a family."
"Well."
Xu Tianyin always spoke concisely, but he answered smoothly. When Li Juan asked, he answered. The two of them answered questions very fluently, causing Li Juan to ask one question after another, and other people at the table had strange expressions.
Xia Zhiyuan coughed and looked at his wife. Why are you asking these questions? Why does this sound like you are introducing someone to someone else? He glared at his wife and motioned for her to stop asking. But I was actually surprised. Is this young man twenty-six? At this age, driving a car belonging to the Provincial Military Region Headquarters, he must be a subordinate of a senior official in the headquarters, right? At this age, it's not bad to be able to hang out in the military area.
Xia Shao also looked at her mother. Why didn't she think her mother had such a hobby before? Judging from her inquiries, it was quite smooth. This is probably a hobby shared by women of this age, but it really sounds like she wants to introduce someone to her senior brother. Fortunately, she was sitting next to Xu Tianyin. When she heard her mother ask, "Are you dating someone?", she felt a sudden shock in her heart and secretly pinched him. Fortunately, he didn't look at her when he answered. Otherwise, her parents It must feel strange.
But in this scene, Tang Zongbo was drinking some wine, laughing, his face flushed, and he looked like he was watching a show.
Li Juan saw the looks from her husband and daughter, and felt that she had asked a little too much. She smiled sheepishly and said, "Why are you looking at me? I just asked casually."
Can't blame her. How did she know that this young man seemed to be quite difficult to talk to, but he could answer questions so smoothly when asked? Then she asked...
Li Juan smiled and hurriedly grabbed Luo Xu Tianyin to eat without stopping her chopsticks before the meal continued.
However, Xu Tianyin always remained silent without asking him anything. Occasionally he got up to add some wine to Tang Zongbo and Xia Zhiyuan. Xia Zhiyuan saw that he spoke too little, so he pondered for a moment, looked at him and asked, "Little Xu, I see you drive a military region car and work in the provincial military region?”
Xu Tianyin raised his head and put down his chopsticks, "Yeah."
Xia Zhiyuan nodded. Xia Shao thought his father wanted to inquire about Xu Tianyin's employment status. Unexpectedly, he said, "Then you should know Zhang Qixiang, the company commander of the group's military aircraft infantry brigade, right?"
Xia Shao was stunned, uncle
Xu Tianyin nodded, "Yes, Second Company."
"I think you should also know that he is a veteran and has been in the army for many years." Xia Zhiyuan said with emotion, but he did not take the opportunity to inquire about Xu Tianyin's position. He was not very familiar with him. How could he inquire about his affairs so clearly? Great. He asked this just because he remembered something. He looked at Xia Shao and said, "Your uncle, your sister-in-law once mentioned it when she came to sit at home some time ago. She said that your uncle was getting older and his military rank had been promoted. If he can’t get it, the army is arranging for him to change jobs, probably next year.”
After hearing this, Xia Shao remembered, isn't it about time? In the previous life, when my cousin Zhang Ruman was in high school, my uncle Zhang Qixiang changed his career and returned home. It stands to reason that with Zhang Qixiang's rank of lieutenant, the local government should be responsible for arranging work after he returns home. According to the policy, he should be assigned to state agencies, enterprises and institutions, and the level should not be too low.
But these days, everything depends on relationships. In the previous life, it didn't matter if I wanted to help. My aunt Xia Zhimei did have some connections in her family, but she was a bit indifferent to this matter. My uncle, Zhang Qixiang, has been a soldier for a long time, and he has the iron nature of a soldier. He doesn't like to receive charity from others, and he just refuses to lower his head and go to his aunt's house to say a nice word or visit relatives. So after he changed his job, he was placed in a particularly idle company in the city. The salary was not high, and it went bankrupt within two years. At that time, my cousin Zhang Ruman was taking the college entrance examination. She was very ambitious and was admitted to the Law Department of Beijing University. Now the family's expenses are high. In desperation, uncle Zhang Qixiang is busy looking for a job. But he is old, where is the job so easy to find? In the end, for the sake of my daughter, I gave up my strong military character and went to my aunt Xia Zhimei's house to have a relationship. I did the manual labor of loading and unloading goods at his house, which made me sick all over from exhaustion.
Thinking about it now, counting the time, isn’t it time to change careers
Thinking of these things, Xia Shao couldn't help but look a little heavy. At this moment, she felt a gaze beside her fixed on her, with silent concern.
Xia Shao raised her eyes and met Xu Tianyin's deep eyes. Seeing that there was a questioning look in his eyes, she smiled and said, "It's okay. Zhang Qixiang is my uncle, but senior brother, don't worry about this matter. I will arrange it." "
Xia Zhiyuan was stunned when he heard this, and quickly waved to Xu Tianyin, "Xiao Xu, don't think too much. I'm asking you just because I saw you driving a car in the military area, and I suddenly thought of it. There is no other meaning. You Qian Don't get involved in this matter. The military region has a military region system. If you are young and work in the headquarters, you will have a bright future. If you didn't offend your leaders for this matter, it won't be worth it! Anyway, the country also has policies on job transfer. The worst is to come back. If we work around the relationship in the future, we can always find a good position."
As he spoke, he waved his hand to Xia Shao, "Don't get involved in this matter. Dad can help your uncle take a look. And your uncle's military rank, he has transferred to another job, which is not the same as demobilization. National policy You will never treat him badly there.”
Although he was only a young man for half a year, after taking charge of the foundation, Xia Zhiyuan had frequent contact with people in the upper-class circles of Dongshi City, and he gradually understood the rules of getting along in this circle. It's one thing to meet and greet each other and build a good relationship, but it's another thing to ask for help. Some people don't like to do things for others openly because they are afraid of telling the truth. Moreover, asking for help means that you owe someone a favor and have to pay it back later. It is already difficult for his daughter to run a company, and he does not want her to get involved in these things, lest it be too troublesome to repay the favor in the future.
Xia Shao could see her father's thoughtfulness and couldn't help but smile warmly. Demobilization is different from demobilization. Demobilization in the army refers to compulsory soldiers, while demobilization refers to volunteers. There is also a difference in military rank between the two, and the treatment is naturally different. But no matter how many policies the country has, it cannot stand up to this society where human feelings are everywhere.
Xia Shao still wanted to help with her uncle's matter. Originally, the relationship between the two families was good, and she had a good relationship with Ruman.
Moreover, judging from the appearance of my uncle Zhang Qixiang, he has to work harder in middle age, but he still has good luck in his later years. So when Xia Shao planned to celebrate the New Year, she really couldn't give him a clear path so that he wouldn't have to live so hard.
This meal took a long time, and it was already evening by the time we finished. But the five of them were all quite satisfied with their meal, especially Xia Shao. It had been a while since she had eaten her mother's food, so she was a little stuffed by this meal. After dinner, Xia Shao helped her mother clean up the dishes. Xu Tianyin also came to help, but how could Li Juan be embarrassed to ask him to help? Quickly asking him to sit down, Xia Zhiyuan also called Xu Tianyin over, and the two of them sat and chatted with Tang Zongbo.
After everything was done, Xia Shao came out, and then she and Xu Tianyin sent Master Tang Zongbo back to his house. Xu Tianyin helped Xia Shao return the clothes and supplements she bought for her parents, and then she left and went back to the house over there to accompany her master.
Finally, there was only a family of three left in the family. Seeing that their daughter had bought new clothes for the New Year, Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan were naturally happy from ear to ear. They immediately went back to the house to try them on. When they put them on, Xia Shao smiled. Wearing this outfit, she looks quite energetic.
"This coat is too red. With my skin color, am I afraid of making people laugh when I wear it?" Li Juan said worriedly while looking left and right while wearing her clothes.
"What a joke! No one is laughing at you now? They say you gave birth to a good daughter." Xia Zhiyuan couldn't stand hearing it at first, but these words reached his wife's heart, and she immediately smiled sweetly.
Li Juan was wearing the new clothes bought by her daughter and was reluctant to take them off, but she sat next to Xia Shao and said distressedly: "That's what I said, but I feel that although life is better now, my daughter is tired, and she still has to go so far. I studied in a different place and couldn’t see each other for several months. Thinking about the past, there was nothing wrong with it. At least the family could see each other together every day. Look, I’ve only been away from home for a few months, and I’ve lost weight... "
Xia Shao expressed her helplessness as her mother mentioned her weight loss several times throughout the afternoon. She could only smile bitterly and comfort her mother.
Xia Zhiyuan didn't want to change his clothes, but he also sat over. Now that there were only three members of the family left at home, it was time to ask some questions.
He was naturally asking about Huaxia Group's annexation of Shengxing Group. This matter has long been spread in Dongshi along with reports from Qingshi. Especially in the days when it was first exposed, it goes without saying that Dongshi was shocked. Even when he went out, he was often grabbed. Asking here and there, asking what's going on, and offering compliments and congratulations.
Xia Zhiyuan is naturally proud of this, but as a father, he can't help but worry about how such a large group like Shengxing was swallowed up? Is there anything illegal here? He had to tell his daughter that it was good to work hard for the family business, but she couldn't do the things she couldn't do!
When Xia Shao heard her father ask, she didn't hide anything and told the whole story. Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan were shocked when they heard that Huaxia Group swallowed up Shengxing Group. Li Juan looked at Xia Shao in surprise. Is this a career that her daughter can achieve? How did she come up with all these twists and turns? But Xia Zhiyuan was excited, nodded proudly, and was filled with emotion.
As expected of his daughter, what a gift!
But when they heard Xia Shao mention what Wang Daolin had done, the couple couldn't help but look at each other and frowned.
"Being rich and unkind, this man is too sinister! Now that Shengxing Group has been swallowed up, what is happening to him now?"
"I'm lying in the hospital. Although my life is hanging, it's hard to say whether I can survive this year." Xia Shao lowered her eyes and said.
Xia Zhiyuan couldn't help but sigh after hearing this, this is how good and evil will be rewarded in the end! Such a big family fortune is gone in the blink of an eye. Isn't this retribution? But seeing other people's assets disappear so easily, Xia Zhiyuan couldn't help but think of his own assets. Thinking about it, I can't help but feel that it's really not easy to hang out in the mall. Moreover, it is always better to be kind to others. The charity foundation I established is really right. I usually help those lonely elderly people and children. Psychologically, I feel that life is very meaningful and quite satisfying.
"By the way, funds from the charity foundation were used to build two nursing homes and a children's welfare home in the city. You are back from vacation anyway, so you can go and see them another day." Xia Zhiyuan thought of this and said.
Xia Shao nodded in agreement. There were a lot of things to do when he returned to Dongshi, including Fu Ruixiang's affairs and social activities in the upper class circles. He would go to see the foundation and prepare for the New Year. He would have to go back a week before that. Qingshi attended the company's year-end dance. It was winter vacation, so she didn't have much time to rest, she was busy.
Li Juan felt even more distressed when she heard this. Why are there so many things to do? Is there still time to rest? You are so busy, how can your body handle it
When she thought about it, she couldn't help but get up and push her to go to bed no matter how much she wanted to chat with her daughter.
As soon as it got dark, Li Juan pushed Xia Shao back into the room and asked her to rest. Of course, she took a bath before going to bed. When Xia Shao came out of the bathroom, she heard Li Juan coming out of the kitchen and saying, "Mom has cooked porridge for you. If you are hungry at night, get up and tell mom to heat it up for you." Eat. Now go to bed."
Xia Shao smiled bitterly after hearing this. How could she eat it? My mother loves to worry. I'm afraid this porridge will become tomorrow morning's breakfast.
But she didn't say much, and understood that her mother felt sorry for her. She immediately said good night to her parents and went back to the house to rest.
Xia Shao was indeed tired during this period, but she had just finished eating and it was too early. Her biological clock didn't feel it was time to go to bed yet, so she couldn't fall asleep even if she closed her eyes. Then he got up again, found a ball of wool and knitting needles for Xu Tianyin's scarf, and knitted a scarf for him.
After about half a fight, she felt a little sleepy, so she lay down and fell asleep.
Although she was asleep, Xia Shao was still relatively alert when she went to bed at night. In the dead of night, she felt a dark shadow in front of her bed.
"Who!" The moment Xia Shao opened her eyes, she jumped up from her bed.
But a familiar voice came from the room, "Me."
Xia Shao was stunned, "Senior brother?"
She had just woken up and was still a little dazed. She looked around and found that there was still a faint light coming from the room, and her parents were not asleep yet. But it should be late at night outside, pitch dark and quiet.
At this moment, Xu Tianyin was standing on the bedside, smelling familiar.
"Senior brother, why are you here so late if you don't sleep?" Shouldn't he be in Master's house
The light in the room was dim, but the outline of the man could be clearly seen. Xia Shao opened her eyes and saw the man in front of her beginning to undress silently and answered in a matter-of-fact manner.
"sleep."

Yesterday, I saw some girls saying that they wanted to buy a jade gourd, which means that the gourd is a homophone of "Fu Lu", one of the Eight Immortals, which means health, longevity and peace. In ancient times, when couples got married, they went to the bridal chamber to drink the "Hexin" wine. The gourd means that the couple's souls can reunite after a hundred years. Therefore, the ancients regarded the gourd as a mascot to seek good luck and protect the body, and to ward off evil spirits.
When buying a jade gourd, as long as it is real jade, you don’t have to pay too much attention to the price. The most important thing when choosing is to look at the eye. Jade has spirituality. If you like it at first sight, it is destined to you. Please come back, wear it and keep it. That’s it. But if you treat it sincerely, if you have the intention of letting it ward off disaster for you, that would be bad. After all, no one likes to be treated with this kind of mentality.
