three days later.
Pro: "If necessary, I can book your ticket for next month."
Tianhe found that Pu Luo was very suitable as an assistant. He had no entity and would not disturb him. He was familiar with the Internet. Apart from being unable to carry his bags for him, he could even drive without any problem. While chatting with him.
"Leave tomorrow." Tianhe said, "I have to find a way to find out the whereabouts of my second brother."
Pro: "Now you are restricted from leaving the country."
Tianhe replied, "You know that's not a problem for me."
"What's the use of finding it?" said Pro. "What do you expect him to explain to you?"
Tianhe didn't know what to say when he saw the second brother, he thought to himself: "He must have an explanation to me. Is there any result?"
"I couldn't search his bank statement in the banking system," Pro said. "The security level is too high."
"Of course." Tianhe replied, "The anti-hacking system is not a vegetarian either. Let's wait and see when you arrive in the United States. Believe me, I want to hack into this system much faster than you." His real purpose is to borrow from his junior brother Vincent A terminal in the New York studio.
Pro: "Currently only his entry records in San Francisco can be found. He may have left the United States. There is a high probability that he will not stay in San Francisco to wait for you to find him. I suggest you delay your trip for a while until the end of the National Day holiday. When you arrive there At that time, you will have a different choice."
"Your credit is also bankrupt." Tianhe said while driving, "The route you chose for me last time met Guan Yue halfway. He suggested that I play polo, but he disturbed me again; give me back my savings I got a call from Guan Yue, which made me unable to get off the stage in front of Wu Shun..."
"But my prediction of his trajectory came true," Prow said.
Tianhe: "Then my airplane model disappeared! I decided to go against your suggestion in the future."
Pro: "You are now."
Tianhe said, "You are just like the old Guan Yue."
Pro: "Perhaps, after all, I got his emotions most of the time, and of course, I also inherited his love for you to a certain extent."
When Tianhe heard this, he had mixed feelings in his heart. He was silent for a moment, and then said: "Thank you, Pu Luo. If you have a real body, there is a small probability that I will regard you as my boyfriend."
"I don't quite understand what this means, but I'm going to learn slowly. But I suggest you take my advice seriously," Prow said.
Tianhe stopped the car in front of the clubhouse and replied, "I will." Then he handed over the car keys to the manager and entered the Jiangyue clubhouse. The waiters in suits who came and went along the way stopped, turned their heads and bowed slightly. In July, my elder brother had already transferred all the shares to Jiang Zijian's father, Jiang Chaosheng. Given the good relationship between Wen and Jiang, even though a small private club has changed owners, it still seems like it hasn't changed.
Jiangyue Club is surrounded by villas, located in green mountains and green waters, facing the Quwen River. The weather in autumn is very good. The attic is built next to the river, with retro gauze curtains hanging on all sides. Jiang Zijian made an appointment in the clubhouse today to entertain another friend Wu Shun had found, and asked God to eat crabs with him.
As Tianhe went up the stairs, Wu Shun was looking out in front of the railing and whistled at him. Tianhe raised his head, waved to him, and laughed. A middle-aged man was sitting in the pavilion. After Jiang Zijian introduced him, Tianhe greeted him, and Wu Shun smiled and said, "Let's have a meal with Zijian today."
Jiang Zijian smiled and said, "This is our Ministry of Industry and Information Technology..."
Tianhe suddenly remembered that he had seen this middle-aged man, and said in surprise, "Uncle Wang!"
Tianhe had seen his father when he was still there, but that was more than ten years ago.
"Sure enough, you still remember me." The middle-aged man surnamed Wang looked at Tianhe, "You Wen's family's photographic memory is really hereditary."
Even Jiang Zijian and Wu Shun didn't know about this past event, they both looked at each other and laughed. Tianhe's memory is quite good. He even remembered that his name was Wang Su. He met him twice in the family planning committee.
But Tianhe tacitly didn't mention a word of the past, just smiled sadly, and gave Wu Shun a grateful look. It seems that in order to help him, Wu Shun might have asked his father to come forward to invite this person.
Wu Shun motioned Tianhe to look at the dinner table. When Tianhe sat down, he found an invitation letter on the dinner plate.
Jiang Zijian smiled and said, "Uncle Wang and the others will hold an Internet high-tech summit at the end of this month, which is completely different from the one held by Ronghui..."
Wang Sudao: "Ronghui has decided to co-organize the summit with our government. I only give them three minutes, but I will give you five minutes. You can speak slowly, say what you want, and say what you want."
"Thank you." Tianhe looked down at the invitation letter, then looked at Wu Shun, Wang Su and Jiang Zijian, and could only nod and repeat, "Thank you."
Mountain darkly, vista.
Wang Su said: "The past is the past. Young people, there is still a long way to go in the future. You have already left too many peers behind you. Don't be discouraged when you are hit. Get up and fight again."
Tianhe nodded and said, "I will definitely cherish this opportunity."
Wang Su drank two sips of tea, chatted briefly, got up and left without eating, Wu Shun sent him out of the clubhouse, and signaled him to leave when he came back, Jiang Zijian and Tianhe were relieved and relaxed a lot .
"Hey." Jiang Zijian said, "Master Wen, once the official leaves, his true colors will be revealed. That's not good."
Wu Shun smiled and said, "There is still an official here."
The three of them laughed together. Tianhe felt a little uncomfortable when facing the government officials. He knew that Jiang Zijian was the same, but there was nothing he could do about it due to the age difference. If they had changed their parents, they would not have any restrictions.
Wu Shun said: "I said he won't stay for dinner, Jiang Zijian, you can get out too."
Jiang Zijian took a sip of tea and said, "I have to find Xiao Kaikai to eat KFC. Let's talk about it. Although the crabs are not very good, they are barely edible. Wu Shun, look at Tianhe and eat less. Don't go back. Headache."
Jiang Zijian was having a fierce fight with Tong Kai, a rising star in foot bathing, and when the appointed time came, he ran faster than a rabbit, leaving Wu Shun and Tianhe to sit by the river.
"It seems that this club is not open to the public?" Wu Shun watched Tianhe's movements, Tianhe opened the invitation letter envelope, took a look, and there was a gold-plated brooch inside.
"Didn't Zijian tell you?" Tianhe held the brooch with his fingers, opened the invitation letter, and glanced at it.
Wu Shun said in astonishment, "Could it be your family again?"
"Not anymore." Tianhe couldn't help but smile, he was in such a good mood, no amount of money could compare to the timely arrival of this invitation letter.
Wu Shun also laughed and said, "This is a science and technology summit held by the government, and Ronghui only has three minutes."
Tianhe said "hmm", looked up at Wu Shun, and Pu Luo said in the earphone: "There are three words he didn't say after that, which is 'Do you like it?'."
Tianhe: "..."
Pro said again: "I just want to remind you, Tianhe, you are a little bit hard to get off now."
Tianhe said, "It's too much of a favor of yours."
Wu Shun thought for a while and replied: "No, I still feel a little strange. He has already arranged for someone from the publicity office to give me the invitation letter. It is completely unnecessary to come in person, but he insists on coming to see you, so I feel that there is something wrong. It’s strange, but I have to be honest about this, you guys have known each other for a long time.”
Tianhe said: "The intersection of my father's generation, after my second brother took over the company, the management of government relations has been lacklustre, and there are not many contacts."
After thinking about it, Tianhe added another sentence: "As far as I know, thank you, Wu Shun, I don't know how to thank you..."
"Eat crabs." Wu Shun said with a smile, "After today, you have to prepare the PPT for that time. I can't help you... Do you often have migraines?"
The manager came over to warm the rice wine for the two of them, and opened the steamer. Inside were the first batch of crabs that Jiang Zijian's family raised in a crab field in Jiangsu.
Jiang Zijian whistled, drove out, parked in the parking lot of his hotel, put on the suit lent to him by the manager, dressed up carefully, sprayed some hairspray, carried a bag across his back, and strode away After passing two streets, someone suddenly patted him on the back. Jiang Zijian hurriedly turned his head and saw that it was Tong Kai. He smiled and took out two old English textbooks, and said, "I bought the books."
Tong Kai said, "Where do I study? Starbucks?"
Jiang Zijian shivered and said, "Or... another place? KFC is good. I just received two coupons. I invite you to eat chicken... fried chicken wings."
Tong Kai: Graduated from Harvard University, he studied civil law and Anglo-American law at the same time, with a Ph.D.
Jiang Zijian: Graduated from the Philosophy Department of Cambridge University with a master's degree.
Tong Kai originally wanted to apply for law studies, but under Jiang Zijian's persuasion, he finally studied "Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Technology".
"There is a skill, you can't die of hunger." Jiang Zijian said sincerely, "Listen to the words of my people."
"Okay." Tong Kai had a little friction with Jiang Zijian during the process of choosing a volunteer, but in the end he listened to Jiang Zijian. However, as revenge, under his persuasion, Jiang Zijian reluctantly chose "crayfish farming".
Both of them thought at the same time, why should I read this? ?
"What does be mean?" Tong Kai spread out the textbook in KFC, and encountered a problem on the first page.
Jiang Zijian said: "be is the general term for am, is, and are, called 'be verbs'. It means 'to be'."
"That's it." Tong Kai nodded and said, "My brother really knows a lot."
"To be or not to be, that is the question!" Jiang Zijian said with emotion.
Now Tong Kai was in awe, he actually knew Shakespeare! The two bowed their heads again, looking at the reading comprehension in the self-examination textbook, both of them seemed to be reading a popular version of a kindergarten children's book for young children, each thinking:
What a mess.
Jiang Zijian has recently had a lingering fear of being dominated by the adult college entrance examination. What is the purpose of this exam? Naihe has said everything, but he still has to put on a brave face and pretend. Dad needs to know that he passed the aquaculture exam at the adult education college in this city, so he doesn't know what he thinks.
Tong Kai began to regret, what was wrong? What do I have to say about "review and self-examination together", Lao Tzu graduated with a Ph.D. in four years! Now I am actually reading a college English textbook, this world is simply too magical!
Tong Kai looked at it for a while and swiped his phone to see if there was something wrong with the head office in the United States. Every time something happened, the boss of the branch always moved him out. Jiang Zijian, on the other hand, held his reading comprehension in his hands and read with gusto. The excerpts of English short stories above are like storytelling in Chinese. It’s not bad to watch some unnutritious jokes to pass the time occasionally, as if a new world has opened up.
"Can't read?" Jiang Zijian noticed that Tong Kai couldn't sit still.
"It's too difficult." Tong Kai said, "I don't know many words."
Jiang Zijian said, "Persevere, let's make a guess based on the context."
"What does this mean?" Tong Kai pointed to "wish" and asked Jiang Zijian. Jiang Zijian said, "Hope." Soon he realized that he seemed to know too much English.
"I thought it was 'washing'." Tong Kai laughed.
Jiang Zijian made a salvageable note: "That's 'watch'."
"Oh..." Tong Kai nodded, and Jiang Zijian gave himself a compliment in his heart, flipping through the textbooks. Tong Kai observed Jiang Zijian's facial features and thought that this guy was really handsome. Sure enough, he was born as a hotel doorman. He has been trained in etiquette and is very different from ordinary people. Pulling out the suit, standing still without opening his mouth, he is a godly man.
No, even the conversation is funny. It is a good material, but it is a pity that fate will not favor everyone fairly.
The two parties had known each other for more than a week, and after a preliminary understanding of each other's situation, Tong Kai probably knew what Jiang Zijian's family was doing, because Jiang Zijian's answer was "My dad is idle, shaking his arms around" and "My mother sometimes plays mahjong with friends." .
So Tong Kai became interested in helping the poor, and imagined that if they got together smoothly, he could introduce Jiang Zijian's unemployed father to his company, drive the car, and his mother would cook at home. Then buy a house of a hundred square meters for Jiang Zijian, and write it under the other party's name.
In this way, the arrangements for the daughter-in-law's natal family are clearly arranged.
Of course, hotel tycoon Jiang Chaosheng didn’t know that he would have a bright future as a driver for a law firm. His wife, who likes to play mahjong with wealthy wives, hasn’t cooked for a long time. Maybe he needs to practice first. craft.
Jiang Zijian looked up from the textbook and cast a sneaky glance at Tong Kai. Tong Kai's eyebrows and eyes had his favorite student look. Although he didn't like the clothes, but as long as he changed into the new winter clothes of Hugo Boss this year, It's almost like a male model, soft but sharp. It stands to reason that these two temperaments should not appear in the same person. What's even more rare is that when Tong Kai is serious, he has a strange persistence and stability, with a bit of Wen Tianhe's aura, which is a kind of calm expression developed by the children of the aristocratic family who are used to a good life since childhood.
Tong Kai is full of vitality, like a ray of sunshine, shining into Jiang Zijian's life that is always awake. He told Jiang Zijian that his parents farmed and worked in Henan for a living, and there was an older sister who was married, so Jiang Zijian also made up his mind to accompany Tong Kai in the coming year, and after finishing the self-examination, he would take the footbath in that family. Cheng bought it and gave it to him, and confessed to him by the way. Buy a piece of land in Henan, let Tianhe help design, set up a fully automatic farming, get some food for their hotel to use as ingredients, everyone can go to Tong Kai's house to play with friends every now and then a play.
The biggest problem now is that, one, both parties don't know what the other will do in bed, and they always try to test each other carefully, but quickly change the topic.
Two, after getting along for a week, each other also discovered that there is still room for adjustment in each other's personality, for example...
"How many mistakes?" After finishing the reading comprehension, I started to correct the answers. Tong Kai made four mistakes, and Jiang Zijian made three mistakes.
"You should choose B." Jiang Zijian said, "This sentence means 'it won't rain' tomorrow."
"The answer must be wrong! How is it possible?" Tong Kai said, "He said 'If it doesn't rain tomorrow I will do my laundry today, I hope it doesn't rain tomorrow...'
Jiang Zijian: "You have to judge based on the context."
"The context is like this!" Tong Kai had already put the script behind him, and made four mistakes in the reading comprehension of the adult self-examination? ! What are you kidding? ! The occupational disease of having to tell right from wrong in everything happened, and he started arguing with Jiang Zijian. Jiang Zijian said, "Think about the original intention of the person who wrote this article! Original intention!"
"Once an article is written, it has nothing to do with the original author!"
"How could it be okay?! What about the idea of the person who made the question? You have to seriously consider it!"
"We only recognize the fait accompli and talk about the evidence, right?"
The two sides quarreled in KFC, Tong Kai pointed at option C vigorously, and confronted each other for a while, Jiang Zijian said, "Listen to me!"
"Listen to me first!"
For a while, no one listened to anyone, and they all wanted to overwhelm each other professionally. Suddenly Tong Kai realized it and said, "You know a lot!"
Jiang Zijian came back to his senses, laughed and said, "Ah, that's right, I actually read it once before I came out, thinking..."
When Jiang Zijian explained this, Tong Kai was a little moved, thinking that he was still too strong, and Jiang Zijian actually prepared lessons at home in order to teach him English.
"You're a quick learner." Jiang Zijian also noticed.
Tong Kai smiled shyly and said, "You teach well."
Jiang Zijian looked at Tong Kai, and reached out to get the Coke. Tong Kai was about to hand it to him, but the two touched their fingers, and retracted each other.
There was thunder and lightning outside, and with the music in the restaurant, rainwater slid down the floor-to-ceiling glass wall. Jiang Zijian said, "It's really raining this time."
"En!" Tong Kai nodded.
Autumn is here in Taiyuan, and the parks and roads are full of red leaves.
The private plane landed at the airport, and the extended Rolls-Royce drove on the highway. Guan Yue sat in the car, watching the flying maple leaves on the side of the road.
The car stopped in front of the mountain, and at the foot of the mountain was the Guan family compound covering an area of nearly 100 mu. The security guards on the outside opened the big iron gate, the car entered, and when it reached the gate of the courtyard, the driver came down and opened the car door. Guan Yue stood at the door of the house, taking a breath of fresh air. The battery car drove over, Guan Yue waved his hand, and walked in.
It was almost dusk, the roofs of hundreds of mansions were connected to each other, and the cornices echoed in the distance, embracing each other layer by layer, clustering the largest mansions, like the Forbidden City. Guan Zhenghan took over the ownership of the compound and the Guan family from his father, and after becoming the head of the family, he still maintained his loyalty to the old era.
The old butler was waiting outside the hall with a cane, and said with a smile, "The young master is back, why didn't you say something in advance?"
Guan Yue said, "I said it."
As soon as the "Young Master" was called, the distance between time and space was instantly opened, as if traveling back to before liberation.
The old butler sighed: "I just received the call before boarding the plane, but I haven't come back for another year."
Guan Yue walked into the central hall, and four servants were waiting on him. They had prepared hot water for him to wash his hands, and someone took his suit jacket. The weather in Taiyuan was cooler than in the south, and it was already chilly at dusk. Another servant brought a suit jacket. An open-breasted mink vest, shaken out for him to put on.
"I'll go and see grandpa." Guan Yue said.
The old housekeeper nodded with his crutches, and said, "Grandfather has just taken the pre-meal medicine and is eating."
Guan Yue walked out of the new courtyard and walked through the corridor to the old courtyard. The land occupation of the house was designed in a double-happiness structure, requiring passage through tens of meters of corridors. The old butler followed behind, Guan Yue deliberately slowed down, the butler said with a smile: "But I have become more energetic, and I bought your magazine interview at the beginning of the year and read it to my grandfather."
Guan Yue paused obviously, a little embarrassed, and nodded.
Guan Yue's grandfather has a bad heart and Parkinson's disease. He is already ninety-seven years old. He is sitting in the room with his eyes squinted. An aunt and grandma of the same family are feeding him porridge, wearing a scarf around his neck, and his mouth is trembling. Sprinkled a lot on the body.
"Grandpa." Guan Yue entered the old courtyard, greeted him in Shanxi dialect, first knelt down and kowtowed, the old man yelled "oh" and "um" a few times, Guan Yue stood aside, observing the big wooden chair, wrapped He was a burly old man with a thick felt jacket and white hair.
The old butler explained the recent situation, Guan Yue just listened in silence, the grandfather stretched out his hand, held Guan Yue's hand, and looked at him blankly, apparently no longer recognizing his grandson.
As soon as the old man turned his head, the porridge couldn't be fed anymore, Guan Yue washed his hands again, took the bowl, and said, "Let me do it."
"Yesterday I was still talking about the young master," my aunt laughed again, "I came today, it's as if you two have a telepathic connection."
Guan Yue nodded and began to feed his grandfather porridge. Ever since his wife passed away, the old man slowly began to forget people. The onset of Parkinson's came on early and late. At the beginning, the family was in a hurry, and a doctor from the United States was specially invited to come over for consultation. However, the disease can only be treated with protective treatment, plus heart problems, and there are many difficulties. Gradually, it disappears. It's up to people to manage, how old they live is counted.
"It's already ninety-seven, let's just look at it, what if you can still become a fairy?" These are the original words of Guan Yue's father, "It's hard to say whether you can live to ninety-seven."
This disease can be inherited, but Guan Yue doesn't want to do genetic testing. Sometimes, when Guan Yue sees his grandfather, it's like seeing his old self. But when he gets old, he looks back on his short life and sits alone on a chair. Who is accompanying him? What do you think about when you are eating porridge
