Good Luck in the Year of the Pig - Chapter 14
The two of them went home and slept until they woke up in the middle of the afternoon. Lu Yingji was concerned about the salary issue. He got up and took his son straight to the supermarket. When he saw him, his colleagues secretly winked at him. .
Director Li came forward immediately when he got the news, and reluctantly pulled Lu Ying in the corner and muttered: “I told Manager Zhang anyway, but I didn’t let go, I don’t understand why she is targeting you. Why don’t I take you to find her? , apologize to her and take it easy? How can you have a hard time with money. “
Lu Ying shook her head directly: “It’s impossible to apologize.”
“Don’t be stubborn!”
“I’m not stubborn.”
“There will be personnel transfers in the coming year, and she may be transferred away. Would you like to bear with it?”
Lu Ying doesn’t want to wait, the personnel transfer is a matter of a few days, if it drags on for half a year, who will remember his poor salary. Applying for labor arbitration is also very tricky, unless he has to, he just wants to cut through the mess and get the money.
“I’ll figure it out myself.”
Brother Yang called to invite him to dinner. Lu Ying’s bad mood was swept away, and she left the mall humming a pleasant tune. Before he went to take a shower today, he quit his part-time job delivering food. Brother Yang had to be full-time. After making up his mind, he would seriously learn the craft from Brother Yang.
Yang Sigu’s house is more lively today, besides a few of their old friends, Doctor Hu is also here!
As soon as she entered the door and ran into Doctor Hu, Lu Ying almost braked and exited.
Doctor Hu raised his head, glanced at him condescendingly, and hummed from his nose.
Lu Ying breathed a sigh of relief.
“What, rhinitis is committed?” Ji Xiaofeng raised her hand and pinched Doctor Hu’s high nose, so angry that Doctor Hu stood up and shouted: “No big or small!”
“I’m going out with me, I’m going to be yin and yang, I want to fight and say it!”
“Lu Ying, come and serve the dishes.” Liu Dichuan hurriedly dragged Lu Ying away.
Entering the kitchen, Liu Dichuan exhaled.
“These two bad tempers are a natural match.”
Brother Yang joked while cooking: “As long as you don’t provoke Xiaoji, Dr. Hu can talk about everything. You are just too used to Ji Xiaofeng. Let’s talk about Lu Ying, he elopes with you back then Guanlan City, you have been away for a whole year and you haven’t come back. Can you blame Doctor Hu for not disliking you? Ji Xiaofeng, he beat and scolded him, turned his head and got sticky again, you are an outsider who can only make a punching bag.”
Lu Ying waved her hand wrongly and hurriedly defended: “Brother Yang, don’t talk nonsense, we are not eloping! It was Brother Ji who saw that I had never been out, so he took me out to see. Let’s go there. Just work to make money, eat food, play, and nothing else. You and Ji Ge are my elder brothers!”
Liu Dichuan brushed Lu Ying’s soft hair: “Brother Yang is teasing you.”
“Jizizi just sees you being honest and easy to send.” Yang Sigu shook his head and laughed: “I want to blame you, Grandpa Lu, for always treating you like a baby and not teaching you anything. Bai Chang is so old.”
Lu Ying was even more anxious when she heard the words, “Grandpa Lu is all for my good.”
“He is stubborn and old-fashioned, how can he know that the outside world has changed a long time ago.”
Liu Dichuan changed the subject: “Xiao Lu, why do you suddenly want to resign early?”
“I want to learn the craft seriously, Brother Yang gave me a chance, I have to take it well.”
“You must be fine.” Liu Dichuan smiled, and Yang Sigu, a fake gentleman, suddenly sent kindness to teach Lu Ying’s son, he must have no intentions. However, it is indeed a good opportunity for Lu Ying. Although Yang Sigu does not have the rare skill of saving lives and helping wounds like Doctor Hu, in human society, all he is proficient in are good guys who can really eat. What kind of pastry baking is just one of Yang Sigu’s specialties, and it’s just his hobby and specialty. On such a long item, many people are sought after. Besides, learning to cook is very suitable for Lu Ying, after all, he likes to eat, and he can eat very well.
There is a saying that interest is the best teacher.
In the early morning, the snow in the town slowly melted under the warm sun. Lu Ying went straight to the mall after sending the child off. He was nearly forty minutes earlier than everyone’s work time. Don’t go, just squatting at the garage elevator entrance and exit.
Manager Zhang, who was at work, got out of the car, and Lu Ying suddenly appeared in front of her: “Why did you deduct my salary? Just because I don’t want to sleep with you?”
Manager Zhang was startled and looked up to see his face, probably because of the cold wind from riding a bicycle. Now his cheeks are red, his angry mouth is slightly tilted, his lips are red and his teeth are white, and his face is delicious. too much.
In an instant, all the anger disappeared. Manager Zhang looked around his head and found that he was in a blind spot of surveillance. He smiled kindly: “It seems that you know what I mean, I thought you rejected me again and again, yes Too stupid to understand my mind.”
“Aren’t you afraid your husband will know?” Lu Ying asked.
Manager Zhang sneered: “So what if he knows, he likes young and beautiful girls, I like young and good-looking boys, everyone depends on their abilities. As far as I know, you don’t have a wife or elders, and a bachelor comes out. There is nothing to be afraid of playing. As long as you make me happy, I will let you be the supervisor in minutes, and you can see your performance when buying a car or a house.”
Looking at her determined face, Lu Ying felt sick to her stomach.
Manager Zhang got closer and stared at Lu Ying with a smile: “I’m finally enlightened now? Make an appointment for dinner. How about tonight?”
Lu Ying stepped back and pouted, and said with disgust: “The ghost will eat with you, don’t try to scare me to death at night!”
Save the phone recording, turn around and walk away.
The half-way salary for his ride home was paid, and he even gave him an extra month.
Lu Ying breathed a sigh of relief, the tricks he learned from brother Ji didn’t expect to be really effective.
Not far from Caifeng City Government, there is an antique and elegant secluded street, old buildings stand on both sides, bricks and tiles are covered with the smell of historical wind and frost, the road is not wide , it’s not very lively, only three or two pedestrians walk slowly in the night, and occasionally I can hear the melodious music from the old house. It is one of the favorite places for local artists .
A black car parked far away at the intersection of the old street. Qin Zhuopu and his assistant got off the car one after another. After the sun went down in the evening, the night came early with cold rain.
It is not far from each other, but this year’s Caifeng City is much colder than Guanlan City.
Qin Zhuopu took the umbrella handed over by his assistant, stood at the corner of the street and looked at the old street, it was dark and loud, with a few red lights flickering sporadically, and the ancient rocks on the eaves were faintly visible. The young assistant next to him shuddered, his teeth chattered, and Boss Qin glanced at him lightly, and the assistant was so frightened that he hurriedly closed his mouth. It’s not that he is timid, this place looks like you can directly shoot ghost movies!
It was not the first time for Qin Zhuopu to come here. He held an umbrella and led the way to his assistant. He cleverly avoided a few puddles. The word ‘shen’ is dashing on the red lantern.
The Shen family is the leader of Caifeng City, and even the catering industry in the whole province. If Fengcheng has free time, he will definitely come here to enjoy a delicious meal.
He used to come, and the chefs were all the current descendants of the Shen family, the boss of the Shen family. And tonight, I might be able to eat the dinner that the retired old man of the Shen family cooked by himself.
Thinking about this, I feel a little more looking forward to it.
“My nephew, you’ve come!”
“Zhoupu, let me introduce you to my elders…”
Afterwards, Qin Zhuopu greeted politely.
After Mrs. Qin introduced the last uncle, Qin Zhuopu discovered the only abrupt young man among the middle-aged and elderly in the room. Hand, very affectionately said: “Zhoupu, do you remember when you look at Yourong? You are Aunt Su’s son. Aunt Su is an old classmate and old friend I told you before. Unfortunately, Aunt Su’s family emigrated later, I didn’t expect See you in Caifeng City after 20 years. I just chatted with Yourong and found out that you are alumni in the United States, which is such a coincidence.”
“It’s all fate, Senior Qin, are you right?” Yu Yourong was wearing a well-cut light-colored casual suit, which made him handsome, clean and well-behaved. He is obviously a man in his thirties, but it is not wrong to say that he is a college student. It’s no wonder that this appearance can please the elders.
Qin Zhuopu smiled lightly: “Yes.”
Yu Yourong stepped forward and stretched out her right hand: “Long time no see, how are you?”
Qin Zhuopu politely gave his right hand, “Thank you for your concern.” After speaking, he pulled out his hand, and the palm of his hand was slightly scratched, as uncomfortable as sticking to chewing gum: “I’ll go to the bathroom.”
“Yun Lan, your son is really a talented person. I only knew that he had outstanding abilities before, but I didn’t expect his appearance to inherit all the advantages of the two of you. If he goes to make a movie, those handsome stars are incomparable. I used to like to brag about our family’s appearance, but I can’t brag about it today.” Ms. Su, who was well-dressed and well-dressed, held Mrs. Qin’s arm lovingly, laughing and blowing rainbow farts. The rest of the people present also echoed, and all the elders praised the only two young people several times.
Yu Yourong sat next to her and did not interrupt randomly, but only occasionally interjected a sentence or two when Mrs. Qin was talking. Not long after, Mrs. Qin smiled and pulled Yu Yourong to sit beside her, and chatted with him kindly.
She felt that it was fate that she met a friend’s family at this stage, and she really wanted to do what she wanted. No, I just thought that my son should get off the list, and Yu Yourong appeared.
Qin Zhuopu returned to the banquet and saw that others were sitting next to her mother for a while, and was about to take a seat at will, when Auntie Su, whom she had just met, had already waved: “Zhoupu, can I call you Zhuopu? Come and sit here, auntie.”
“I’m a junior, how can I take the seat.” Qin Zhuopu stabilized at the start.
Mrs. Qin beckoned again: “Come here and sit next to Yourong, you two young people at this table, you are more comfortable sitting together.”
Qin Zhuopu shook his head: “I want to eat.”
She got up and poured a bowl of soup for her son herself, before giving up after ranting.
During the banquet, Mrs. Qin and Aunt Su brought the topic to the two young people several times, but Qin Zhuopu deftly avoided it. Qin Zhuopu helped his mother to go out, and Mrs. Qin’s eyes were full of deep reluctance for the Su family’s mother and son.
Qin Zhuopu urged his mother to get in the car, he followed up, Yu Yourong suddenly stepped forward and handed Qin Zhuopu an invitation from the car window: “Senior, I am returning to China this time in Caifeng. The city has held an art exhibition, and if you have time, seniors are welcome to give pointers.”
Accepting the invitation, Qin Zhuopu did not change his expression: “It depends on the situation.”
“I hope the seniors will appreciate your face. Auntie, I am very happy to meet an elder like you when I return to China. I will definitely make afternoon tea with my aunt when I have time.”
“For sure!”
The car started, and Mrs. Qin immediately looked at her son with a smile: “Zhoupu, what do you think of being handsome?”
Qin Zhuopu sneered and shook his head: “Not much.”
Mrs. Qin patted him: “Look at how you look down on others. Although Yourong is not as good as you in career, he is excellent in all aspects. He is three years younger than you, graduated from the same famous school as you, and looks like you. I don’t know what to say. It’s a coincidence that your Aunt Su’s son, like you, likes the same sex. Aunt Su and her husband are divorced, and this time she returns to China and plans to settle down for a long time. She is also open-minded and supports her son’s choice wholeheartedly.”
“So today is a blind date for the two of us?”
“Mom is for you…”
“You should at least tell me in advance. I said a few years ago, don’t meddle in my private affairs in private. I didn’t come to Caifeng City to accompany you.”
Qin Zhuopu did not feel angry or offended, but was more and more disappointed with her mother.
“Then why did you suddenly come to Caifeng City? I asked you to see the doctor before and refused.”
“As you wish, I’ll take off the list.”
You can also get a cheap son.
