The Landlady and The Amnesiac - Chapter 68
The old man nodded and said with a smile: “Every time I come here to wash the car, my mood will be much better. Now the family doctor says that my mentality is better than before.”
At this point, he leaned over and looked at Zhou Jianguo who was washing the car outside the shop, his eyes became far-reaching, “I have a son, but he is not a good one. When he was young, I was doing business and ignored him. His education, when the aftertaste comes over, his character has been finalized. Every day he only knows how to spend time and drink, and he does not have the way to be a father of a son. Fortunately, his grandson’s ability to do things, including his personality, are very similar to me, but…” After a pause, he said, “Babe, one day you will understand what I said today. I am very grateful to you. You are a very good girl. You will definitely live the life you want in the future.”
Robbe really didn’t understand, but she knew that the old man had a strange concern for Zhou Jianguo, so she leaned in and asked in a low voice, “Did you know him before?”
She pointed to Zhou Jianguo who was washing the car with a grunt outside.
The old man was startled, and then said: “Do you think I will know him?”
Robbe nodded, “I feel it, you actually care about him.”
The old man laughed loudly, “Do you think I would have known him before as a brickman?”
What this said…
Ever since the old man accidentally learned that Zhou Jianguo had done a move on the construction site, he loved to call him that.
Robbe also understands that he has a big brain. If he really knows him, how can he not say it? I guess he really likes to educate people like Zhou Jianguo said.
She is actually disappointed. As a woman, she has an intuition that she can’t even explain, although this intuition is not necessarily accurate.
“I don’t know Zhou Jianguo.” The old man said, “By the way, don’t you think this name is a bit dirty? People of our time didn’t love this name.”
Robbe smiled and nodded, “It’s not soil, but it feels like a name loved by people in the 70s and 80s.”
The old man sternly corrected, “Although I am more than seventy this year, I don’t like this name, which does not fit my aesthetics. I will not give my children and grandchildren such a name.”
“The name is actually a code name.”
The old man insisted, “I don’t know Zhou Jianguo anyway.”
Robbe laughed, “Yes, yes, you don’t know him.”
She really wanted to help Zhou Jianguo find the past. It seemed that she had watched too many TV series before, and she would think that the old man knew Zhou Jianguo.
***
Although he is busy at work, many people remember Robbe’s birthday, including Zhou Jianguo.
This was revealed to him by Grandma Luo. On the surface, she said that Zhou Jianguo was asked to give Robbe a day off. In fact, it was clearly indicating that Robbe’s birthday was coming…
Of course, Zhou Jianguo was grateful to this lovely old lady.
After work that day, he did not go home with Robbe, but said that he had a dinner with his former workers, and Robbe did not doubt it.
Zhou Jianguo came to stroll on the street. He really didn’t know what gift he should prepare for Robbe. In fact, no matter if he likes Robbe today, even if he is just a good friend, he always prepares a gift for her, but for a good friend, It’s not the same as for the girl you like.
If you are a good friend, just wrap a big red envelope.
Went around the women’s clothing store, he didn’t know what size Robbe was wearing, and he didn’t see any good-looking clothes, so he had to give up. Finally, he went around and transferred to a brand store, which mainly buys jewelry. When I walked in, the price was not cheap. Any bracelet would cost thousands of dollars. In Zhou Jianguo’s view, it was not worthwhile at all. It was not a valuable material, and there was no diamond, but it was just a brand.
It’s not cost-effective, and he has no money to such an extent.
Originally, the clerk looked at Zhou Jianguo’s temperament and thought that he would definitely buy it. After all, for people like this, it takes minutes to buy things and swiping cards. How did you know that Zhou Jianguo looked around and compared the prices. Without showing, he turned and left.
Zhou Jianguo swung around on the street and finally stepped into Chow Tai Fook.
It’s so kind.
Whether it is Chow Tai Fook, Chow Sang Sang, Chow Tai Sang, they all seem good.
Robbe’s birthday is in January. According to the number of years, she should be a pig, but Grandma Luo said that she is a dog because she was born before the 30th.
Zhou Jianguo didn’t understand the issue of zodiac signs, but Grandma Luo said what her granddaughter belongs to, so what?
He took a fancy to a gold bracelet, the chain is not thick, the pendant on it is also the dog in the Chinese zodiac, the puppy is very cute, he also wears a crown on his head, including the labor cost, this necklace is 3,000 yuan, Zhou Jianguo is very Satisfied, asked the clerk to wrap it up, and then he looked at a gold necklace. The chain was also very thin. The pendant was a small flower shape. Zhou Jianguo imagined that Robbe had fair skin and delicate collarbone, so he should wear it. very nice.
In the end, I spent 5,000 yuan to buy a necklace and a bracelet. Zhou Jianguo felt that this was more cost-effective than the previous one, at least it was gold. If the style doesn’t like it in the future, or it’s out of date, he can still add money to the store.
Recently, because some expenses are too large, it is inconvenient to use cash. Robbe issued a card to him in his own name. This is also because he trusts him very much, so he will do this!
After spending five thousand yuan, Zhou Jianguo walked out of Chow Tai Fook with satisfaction.
Isn’t he very careful about this gift?
Robbe should like it. If he doesn’t like it, he can bring her over again.
Zhou Jianguo casually entered a fast food restaurant and ordered a bowl of rice to solve the dinner. He always carried Chow Tai Fook’s bag in his arms. He was afraid that there would be a lot of people. .
Until he took the bus back to the village in the city, nothing was left behind. In order to fear that she would meet Robbe and be known in advance of the birthday present he prepared, Zhou Jianguo went to the commissary to find a black plastic bag to put it in.
He didn’t know that he walked to the door and didn’t meet Robbe, but Jiang Hui.
Jiang Hui had been waiting for him at Zhou Jianguo’s door for a long time. The weather is still very cold, especially at night. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is frozen into a dog. She is wearing a cute plush pajamas and her hair is tied into a ball head. Put on a light makeup that a straight man can’t see, put on blush, and then a layer of lip glaze on her lips, even she feels beautiful.
Zhou Jianguo had no impression of her for a long time. Just when he came downstairs, he saw such a person standing in front of his house. His first reaction was that this girl had come to see Jiang Sihan.
Out of courtesy, he still reminded, “Miss, Xiao Jiang is not at home, he has something to go out of town.”
Where did Jiang Hui know who Xiaojiang was, she was taken aback for a moment and said, “I’m not here to find someone else.”
What are you doing in the basement this night?
Zhou Jianguo had already taken out the key, Jiang Hui hurriedly grabbed him, handed out the pink and lovely bento box, gathered up the courage and said, “Well, this is the cookie I baked. It tastes good. Let me try it. .”
“Who are you?” Zhou Jianguo asked, frowning.
He has no interest in cookies of this kind. For him, no matter how delicate or beautiful desserts are, it is not as tempting to take a few dumplings.
Jiang Hui didn’t expect Zhou Jianguo to have no impression of herself at all. That’s right, she didn’t talk to him the day she moved. People with his personality didn’t notice that she was normal, so she comforted herself. After that, she smiled at him slightly, “I am a new tenant and live on the fourth floor. My name is Jiang Hui, Jiang Ziya’s ginger, and Aloe Vera.”
Zhou Jianguo said, even if he did.
“Don’t you want it?” Jiang Hui was not stupid, and used Robbe as an excuse. “I baked a lot of cookies and gave Robbe some of them. Everyone is a neighbor. You can try it too.”
Zhou Jianguo waved his hand, his tone was cold, “I don’t want to eat.”
Jiang Hui: “…”
“Miss, if you have nothing to do, I will go in.” Zhou Jianguo had already opened the door of the room, but he stood at the door and issued an obvious eviction order.
“Well, don’t you really try it? Or tell me what you like to eat, and I can cook everything.” Jiang Hui said a lot of things unconsciously, “I can fry steaks and make homemade dishes. You can also roll the noodles.”
Although Zhou Jianguo’s conditions are not good in many people’s minds, many girls have come to talk to him about his appearance.
He is no stranger to this situation, and it is too obvious to know what this girl means to him.
Don’t say that he has someone in his heart now, but he didn’t like Robbe. He has no interest in falling in love or responding to other people’s feelings. It’s just that this girl lives in the same building. If she wants to pester him, it will be troublesome. , Thinking of this, Zhou Jianguo said: “Miss, I am not familiar with you, please do not give me anything in the future, I don’t eat food from strangers.”
Jiang Hui did not expect Zhou Jianguo to be so indifferent.
But then I think about it again, in the plot of the novel, Zhou Jianguo is just showing off to other women, and he never gives any woman except Robbe the opportunity and hope that it will be liked by so many readers!
If he is really interesting to her so quickly and speaks softly, then he is not him!
“Okay.” Jiang Hui didn’t have any disappointment on his face, nor the sadness of being hit. On the contrary, he smiled happily. “I know, I believe we will become friends!”
After saying this, she said to Zhou Jianguo: “Then I’ll go now. I won’t disturb you and rest. Good night.”
Zhou Jianguo returned to the room and sent a WeChat message to Robbe, “I said Sister Bei, can we install a security door for our basement? My beauty is missed, which makes me very scared.”
