Chapter 389: You Need Multiple Eyes
Lin Li said: "Okay, okay, I'll do it quickly, as long as the price comes down a little, the shipment will be accelerated." ”
Lin Li now understands why Ma Tianming has always been so confident, it turns out that he has seen the difference here, and this eye is poisonous enough!
At around 7:40 p.m., Li Xin drove to the downstairs of Xia Xiaona's house. After parking the car, he took the phone and called Xia Xiaona: "I've arrived." ”
After receiving Li Xin's call, Xia Xiaona opened the door and prepared to go downstairs. Xia Xiaona's mother was washing dishes in the kitchen, and when she saw her daughter going out, she asked, "Nana, where are you going?"
"Li Xin is here, I'll go downstairs to pick him up. ”
"You come here, I'll ask you. Xia Xiaona's mother motioned for her daughter to come into the kitchen.
Xia Xiaona had no choice but to close the door and turn around and walk into the kitchen and ask, "Mom, what's wrong?"
Xia Xiaona's mother asked, "Whose car did you take to come back last night?"
"Li Xin's, he sent me back. ”
"Where's your car?"
"My car was parked at the company. ”
"No wonder!"
"Mom, how do you know?"
"You got your breakfast this morning and went out in a hurry, and I saw you in the window into someone else's car, and that was his?"
"Yes. ”
Xia Xiaona's mother looked at her daughter with scrutinizing eyes: "Did you go to the movies last night?"
"Mom, where do you want to go? Where are we going instead of going to the movies? It's normal for me to come back in his car at night, we can't drive two cars to go to the movies." Xia Xiaona said.
"Girls need to have more eyes, don't regret it when the time comes!" Xia Xiaona's mother whispered.
Xia Xiaona blushed and said, "Mom, I know." We've only been friends for a short time, and it's not as complicated as you think!"
Xia Xiaona's mother looked at her daughter and thought: I don't think it's that simple. For example, let Li Xin come to the house tonight, he is downstairs now, he came here last time, he knows the way, and he can let him come up by himself. But as soon as you get a call from him, you are so anxious to go downstairs to pick him up, and the intimacy does not look like you have just started to make friends.
But she only thought these words in her heart, and did not say them. Looking at her daughter's radiant appearance immersed in love, as a mother, she felt happy from the bottom of her heart.
But at the same time, she couldn't help but have a vague worry in her heart. What she is worried about is whether Li Xin, a young man, is worthy of her daughter's innocent feelings.
This is the reason why she and her husband, as parents, seriously asked their daughter to call Li Xin to the house to talk seriously.
She looked at her daughter's rosy cheeks with loving eyes, and gently instructed: "It's not your mother who cares about your business, there are some things we can only tell you to this extent, and it's up to you to grasp how to do it, don't look at the wrong person, you know?"
"I know, then I'll go down. Xia Xiaona opened the door and ran downstairs like a gust of wind.
Xia Xiaona's mother shook her head helplessly: Don't look at her daughter's promise to herself, but she really doesn't believe that her daughter listened to her words. But if the daughter could understand half of the meaning of her words, she would not run downstairs so happily.
Xia Xiaona came downstairs and saw Li Xin taking out a few very beautiful boxes from the back seat, and holding a book in her hand. So he asked, "What do you buy all these bunches for?"
Li Xin said: "Didn't you say that your mother likes to knit sweaters? Originally, I wanted to buy some wool for her, but I didn't know what kind of wool was good, and I didn't know what color she liked, so I simply went to the store and bought a cashmere sweater for your father and mother, and two boxes." Your dad likes to practice Tai Chi, so I bought another Tai Chi book, and I don't know if it's the kind of Tai Chi he practiced. ”
"It's said that you don't have to buy anything, and you still buy a lot of it. Besides, my dad practiced Tai Chi casually with others, and I don't know what kind of Tai Chi he practiced. ”
Li Xin said: "It's okay, if it weren't for the kind of Tai Chi that your father practiced, I'll buy a new copy next time." Here, you carry these two boxes for me, and I'll lock the door. ”
Xia Xiaona took the box on Li Xin's right hand, Li Xin took out the key, locked the car door with one button, and then the two went upstairs with their things.
When she went upstairs to the door, Xia Xiaona took out the key to open the door and walked into the house, and said to her mother in the kitchen: "Mom, Li Xin is here, this is what he bought for you." ”
Xia Xiaona's mother greeted her from the kitchen, and as soon as Li Xin saw Xia Xiaona's mother, she said, "Hello, Auntie." ”
Xia Xiaona's mother said, "Xiao Li is here, look at you, come on, what else do you want to buy?" Come in and sit." ”
Xia Xiaona took Li Xin into the living room: "Dad, Li Xin is here, and he also bought you a book on Tai Chi, you can see if it is the kind you practiced." ”
Li Xin nodded to Xia Xiaona's father and said, "Hello uncle." ”
Xia Xiaona's father got up and greeted Li Xin and said, "It's Xiao Li, come on, come here, sit here." ”
As he spoke, he took the book handed over by his daughter and flipped through it: "Yes, yes, that's what I practice, thank you, Xiao Li." ”
Li Xin owed a debt and said, "Uncle, you are too polite, just a book, thank you." ”
Xia Xiaona's father said to his daughter, "Nana, pour tea for Xiao Li." ”
Li Xin hurriedly said to Xia Xiaona: "You don't need to put tea leaves, just boiled water." ”
Xia Xiaona's father took out a cigarette and handed it to Li Xin and said, "Xiao Li, do you smoke?"
Li Xin said: "I won't smoke anymore, you can smoke." ”
Xia Xiaona poured a glass of water and put it in front of Li Xin, saying, "Aren't you a smoker in the company, why don't you smoke now?"
"I don't have a habit of smoking, I smoke a little when I socialize with people in the company, and I don't smoke when I'm alone. ”
Xia Xiaona's father said: "Smoking is not a good habit, and it is best not to smoke." ”
Xia Xiaona said: "Dad, you know that smoking is not a good habit, so you still smoke?"
"I've been here for years, and I can't quit. ”
At this time, Xia Xiaona's mother came out of the kitchen, she came to the living room and sat diagonally opposite Li Xin, and asked while rubbing hand cream: "Xiao Li, have you been busy with work lately?"
Li Xin only sat on half of the sofa, with her waist straight and her hands on her knees. He knew that his identity when he came here today was different from last time, and he was going to face the questioning of Xia Xiaona's parents, so he didn't dare to be careless after sitting down.
And he was very sensitive, and as soon as he entered the door, he noticed a slight difference in Xia Xiaona's mother's gaze.
Although Xia Xiaona's mother was as smiling as the last time they met, last time her eyes were more scrutinizing, but this time her eyes were a little more scrutinizing.
Similarly, Xia Xiaona's father's attitude has also changed significantly. Compared to the last time, her father's attitude was more dignified.
So at this time, hearing Xia Xiaona's mother start to ask, Li Xin hurriedly replied respectfully: "Fortunately, there are not too many things in the company." ”
"I remember Nana saying that you used to be the assistant to the chairman, and now you are still in this position?"
Li Xin said with some embarrassment: "The things are still those things, but the position has not been clarified for the time being." ”
Xia Xiaona's mother said, "Oh. ”
Xia Xiaona's father interjected at this time and said: "Young people should work harder, the workplace is hierarchical, and the difference between you in that position and not in that position is heaven and earth." To put it mildly, the starting point of the present is different, and the future development prospects of the individual will be different. In general, even if you want to contribute to the company, you have to have a lot of power in your hands. Otherwise, even if you have no skills, you won't be able to show them, because no one will listen to you, and everyone will only look at the boss. The reality is so cruel, don't you say?"
Li Xin said: "That's that, uncle is right." ”
In fact, Xia Xiaona's mother is very clear about Li Xin's current position, and the last time Xia Xiaona said this, Li Xin also specifically explained why she was removed from the position of assistant to the chairman.
It hasn't been long since Li Xin came to eat at home last time, and she has many years of work experience and knows that in such a short period of time, Li Xin's position will be restored, unless there is a miracle.
The reason why I started with a topic at work was really unavoidable. Because this kind of conversation is actually not easy for them as parents.
If you can get a good start, you can make the conversation go smoothly and everyone will not feel embarrassed and stiff. Talking about work is the most natural topic, which can be gradually unfolded from point to point and face, silently.
Seeing that the topic gradually deepened, Xia Xiaona's mother said: "Nana said that the two of you are talking about friends, and we won't interfere too much in the affairs of you young people." But things at work are also big things, you are still young, you should focus on work, because this is the foundation of your future life. ”
Li Xin said, "Auntie, I know. ”
"Do you have any siblings at home?"
"No, my parents are just my son. ”
"Then your parents will live with you in the future. ”
"I guess so, but they're still years away from retiring. ”
"I heard Nana say that you don't live in a dormitory assigned to your unit, you live in a house you bought, right?"
"Yes, I bought a villa in the suburbs a few years ago. ”
"Did you buy it yourself, or did your parents buy it for you?"
"I bought it myself, and I also bought one for my parents in Lucheng. ”
"Oh. Do you want to do it yourself in the future, or do you want to stay in the unit?"
Li Xin thought for a while and said, "It should still be in the unit, because this doesn't prevent me from doing the things I like." ”
Xia Xiaona's mother has always been very concerned about who bought Li Xin's villa, because this question can be a good proof of Li Xin's economic strength.
