Chapter 157: Intentionally pleased
When the car started, Tang Shubai refused to settle down for a moment. He laughed to himself and said, "Auntie, you see, although I have wasted a long time just now, I have answered all the questions that I asked. My surname is Tang, I am also a reporter, and I am a familiar friend of Ling Yan, so you can call me Xiao Tang. ”
Hearing this, Li Fengzhu couldn't help but shudder, and the hairs on his body stood up in protest. Because he hurriedly interjected in the middle and said, "Mom, you call him Mr. Tang or Editor-in-Chief Tang." When snatching white, he secretly sneered coldly, the corners of his mouth were raised stiffly, and he took Xiao Rufu into his arms. She originally thought that emphasizing the presence of children in the car in her actions might make the other party a little more restrained. But when he thought about it, could a traitor who killed patriots think of this? There was a sudden emptiness in his heart, and he sighed and turned his body slightly back to sit crookedly towards Xiao Rufu.
Today she is wearing a very seasonal short-sleeved cheongsam with a white background print, and the skirt is just above the knee. But as soon as you sit down, the skirt shrinks upward, and a pair of knees will naturally be exposed. She caught a glimpse of a pair of eyeballs in the rearview mirror, drifting restlessly over and over them, and she put her handbag on her knee to block it.
Looking at Mrs. Li again, the attention of listening to people is always not on the point, so she smiled more and more from ear to ear: "I'm still an editor-in-chief." Then I should call Mr. Tang. ”
Tang Shubai laughed twice, nodded and said, "That's fine." I'm also a big boss, and people call me old Tang at work. But in life, by the way, for an old man like you, although I don't dare to lose my seniority, if you really call Xiao Tang, I will inevitably be ashamed when I hear it. ”
Seeing that he was so kind, Mrs. Li couldn't help but say two more words: "That's not what I mean, my name is Mr. Tang, and Xiao Tang is very smooth." It's just that you are younger than me, but in the end, you are a learned editor-in-chief, if I really call Xiao Tang, it will sound disrespectful. ”
Tang Shubai replied with a smile: "Aunt's etiquette is really thoughtful, I think your mansion is very particular about family inheritance in this regard." After that, he looked at Li Fengzhu in the rearview mirror and paused for three or four seconds.
Mrs. Li, who was wrong from beginning to end, naturally couldn't understand the true meaning of this sentence, and thought that Tang Shubai was blaming their children for seeing their elders and saying no. This couldn't help blushing, nudged Xiao Rufu's shoulder, and whispered to him: "You don't call someone, call ...... quickly."
"Yes, ask Mr. Tang quickly. Li Fengzhu stepped forward and quickly cut off the two words that were about to pop out of his mother's mouth, "Rufu, your age has also gone up to two digits, the etiquette of going out to meet people must be firmly remembered, and you can't forget it for a moment, don't let the elders always follow you to remind you." ”
It's not good to tear your face in front of you, and it's even harder to offend Tang Shubai. But how did this child end up outside the border, and at whose hands did his father and two grandfathers die? He called others an uncle and uncle as a courtesy, but to treat a traitor with such courtesy is not much better than recognizing a thief as his father. Li Fengzhu couldn't hear such a ridiculous name, so he naturally tried to stop it.
Mrs. Li thought that it was too much to call her like this, and even at this time, she had already put a long time into it, and she was worried that if she was used to calling it like this, she would probably be even more difficult when she had to change her words in the future. But she saw that her daughter's attitude was very resolute, so it was difficult to say anything.
Xiao Rufu glanced at both sides of his body, and then shouted in a low voice, "Hello Mr. Tang." When he said hello, he turned his head down slightly. This was a sign of respect, and then he lowered his head and never lifted it again.
If this kind of look is done to others, Li Fengzhu wants to express her praise and satisfaction for her son's politeness, but the other party is Tang Shubai, and politeness has become a mistake, but she is not good at breaking it.
Tang Shubai was very cheeky and changed his title: "Okay, this kid is really sensible! Another day, my uncle will come to see you again - and your grandmother." ”
The accent of the words dragged out, leading to a vicious eye knife from Li Fengzhu. Fortunately, she was about to get to the place, so she diverted the topic and simply talked to her mother as if she hadn't heard: "Mom, let's get out of the car quickly, don't disturb Mr. Tang to do business." After finishing speaking, without waiting for the car to stop, he pushed the car door with a roar, forcing Tang Shubai to step on the sudden brake, and the old lady Li almost threw her face on the back of the front seat if she didn't sit still.
"Blame me, blame me, aunt didn't knock, right?"
"No, no, no, I don't blame you, it's our girl who got out of the car in a hurry. However, don't blame her for being so old and anxious like a child. It's really this time, it's best to let my eldest grandson go back to sleep and recuperate. Old Mrs. Li thought back to her words, I'm afraid she was wrong, if Tang Shubai felt that Li Fengzhu put his son first in everything, it seemed that there would be a little obstacle to remarrying, so she quickly added, "The woman has no other skills, and for the old and young in the family, everything can be taken care of." ”
If you want to talk about the car today, Mrs. Li is extraordinary. Everything she knew, she could use.
Li Fengzhu was not happy when he heard this, how could he care what the two of them said, stretched out his hands, carried them to Xiao Rufu's armpit, and took his son to run in a big stride. As for the old lady Li, it's not that she doesn't want to care, but I'm afraid that the current situation is no longer something she can pull back, so she will follow the old lady's pleasure. It's the same when everything stops and then finds a time to explain slowly.
Coincidentally, there is no book, and this strange situation happened to make Wang Fuchun catch up. As soon as he saw this strange thing, he quickly told the rickshaw driver to pull over quietly. After paying for the car, he immediately dodged and hid under the eaves of a family, and watched the old lady get out of the car. Waiting for Tang Shubai to park the car, he quietly chased after him quickly, greeted him and got out of the car, and didn't forget to say: "Hey, why are you already ......" The finger also poked at the attic where Li Fengzhu lived temporarily.
At this time, Mrs. Li had just walked into the small courtyard at the entrance of the printing house, when Tang Shubai called back again and introduced her in a matter-of-fact manner: "Auntie, this is my old friend, and I am also Mi Sili's colleague, of course, my boss, Wang Fuchun Wang of Ta Kung Pao. ”
When Tang Shubai talked about the relationship between his boss, he spoke quickly and his tone was full of care, and he only paid special attention to the other two sentences.
Wang Fuchun looked at Tang Shubai like a monster, and lost several glances in a row, blaming him for making trouble for himself. However, on the surface, I still have to perfunctory ask "Hello old aunt". Then, Wang Fuchun stretched out his arm and went out, but the old lady Li squatted down and made an old salute.
This meeting is indeed a little embarrassing.
Mrs. Li blushed and wanted to say a few words of gratitude to the newspaper for taking them in and a family of three, but she was afraid that her old-fashioned character would make a joke as soon as she opened her mouth, so she kept asking a few words, "Hello Mr. Editor-in-Chief, your family is good, everything is good", and retreated all the way back to the courtyard.
Wang Fuchun was amused by her restrained appearance of turning around and running, and turned his head to complain to Tang Shubai: "What the hell are you doing? You like to play, that's your private matter, and I have no right to interfere." But you can't come and mess with me, pull me and introduce me to that person's wife? You know how awkward I was just now. I said, what are you laughing at? Don't dig a hole, you want to see my good show!"
Tang Shubai really laughed louder, patted him on the shoulder again and again, and said, "Let's not talk about private matters first, just on those official matters, I still want to maintain a superficial peace with that person." But you, as her boss, have such a needle-point attitude towards Mai Mang. How can you keep me from laughing?"
"That person is your person, what does it have to do with me? As the saying goes, it's not a bad luck for my brother!"
"You don't make sense of what you say, and it's common to say hello, how can you be involved with the words of your brother. ”
Wang Fuchun asked Tang Shubai to go to the newspaper office, waved his hand and said: "Don't talk about this, I have almost taken care of the things you asked me to do, do you want to meet in person in the evening?"
I saw Tang Shubai's index finger touching the tip of his nose, and he silently pulled his legs and walked quickly into the office. It wasn't until the door was closed that he could speak: "Is it appropriate? The people I asked you to contact are all scholars who have never liked to participate in the rectification of justice, and if I am asked to come forward, I am afraid that they will slip away!"
"You're not a civil servant. Wang Fuchun snorted, and wanted to turn his head and call someone to come in and pour tea, but he didn't feel very convenient, so he had to do it himself.
"But in the eyes of others, yes. Tang Shubai sat down at the desk, a pair of tripods high, and reclined on the chair so loudly, "Brother, the newspaper person of Quanjinmen, apart from you, how can anyone know how the words 'public and private are clear'?"
While making tea, Wang Fuchun said thoughtfully: "I also hate this layer." If this is in a civilized country, everyone will discuss the issues that should be discussed, and they will quarrel when they should quarrel, but as soon as the bell strikes after work, everyone returns to their lives, and immediately reverts to being old friends who have nothing to say, and this is what a scholar should look like! But don't worry, I will always find a way to make them realize that new school people should establish new school interpersonal relationships with each other. Although the positions can be different, if we want to talk about academics, we must include all the people in the industry with different positions. With that, he handed over a ceramic cup.
Tang Shubai put his feet down, stood up slightly, took it with both hands, took a small sip, and said with a smile: "This time it's all up to you, brother." ”
