Chapter 3: After Returning Home

Two days later, Qi Min said that he would be able to return to Guangzhou tonight, and the day after tomorrow would be Chinese New Year's Eve, which meant that I would go home tomorrow. In my memory, this is the first time I have come home so late for the New Year, and it is only one day before Chinese New Year's Eve.

During the day, seeing that Qi Min can only return at night anyway, we have already made an appointment to have dinner together in the evening. So, I took advantage of the free time during the day to go shopping at the mall and prepare to go home tomorrow and bring it back. It's really fast, it's time to buy New Year's goods and go home again, but when it comes to going home, I think of the emotions that are difficult to express in words when Cheng Yu transferred the 100,000 yuan back to me more than a week ago, and I don't know how he is now. However, I'll find out when I'm back tomorrow.

I bought some cigarettes and alcohol at the mall, plus bao-jia

-Pin brought it back to his mother, as for Cheng Yu, forget it, now I don't know what to buy for him, if it was before, then I should have given him some baby products when I went home this time, after all, he and Ke Ning were planning to have a child at that time.

After walking around the mall for more than an hour, I finally bought all the things I needed to buy, and spent thousands of dollars, which is similar to the consumption of buying New Year's goods during the Chinese New Year in previous years. Back to the rental house, I put everything back and looked at the time, it was already five o'clock, it was time to tie up with Qi **, so I called him.

When the phone was connected, I asked, "What do you say, did you get it?"

"Soon, just get off the highway for a while, so let's go directly to Lanxuan Four Seasons, I'll go over later, I'll let the hotel people arrange dinner first." ”

"Okay, I'll go now. ”

After hanging up the phone, I followed the phone and went to Lanxuan Four Seasons.

......

When I arrived at Lan Xuan Four Seasons, Qi Min had really arranged for someone to prepare dinner, because I was already a regular customer of Lan Xuan Four Seasons, and because I had a good relationship with Qi Min, the hotel staff recognized me at a glance and took me to a box that was almost the most luxurious.

I was so hungry, so I started directly, and after eating for a while, Qi Min came in. He smiled and carried a bag in his hand.

"I was so hungry that I ate first. I looked up at him and asked, "What are you holding in your hand?"

"It's okay, you can eat when you're hungry. He was in a good mood, put the bag on the table, and said, "A small gift from a customer." ”

"What's that?" I was driven by curiosity, and I opened the bag without any idea, and it turned out to be a cake of Pu'er tea and a bottle of Hennessy, which I knew were worth a lot of money just by the vintage and the packaging.

Qi Min also moved his chopsticks to eat, paused for a while, and said, "Let's drink the wine directly, let's have a better meal before we go home for the New Year, and as for Pu'er tea, you can take it back to your dad to drink." ”

I smiled and said, "Then you're welcome." By the way, he opened the bottle of Hennessy and poured it into each of the two cups.

"By the way, you said you were going to surprise me, wouldn't it be just this bag of stuff?" I asked again, remembering what he had said to me on the phone earlier.

"Silly, of course not. While chewing the contents of his mouth, he picked up a tissue and wiped his mouth, and then said: "This business trip, it can be described as a great harvest, don't you know, I have already pulled three customers for us, and when I come back in the year, I can sign the contract immediately and enter the formal cooperation!"

I was a little excited and said, "Really, fake? You will get three customers after two days of business trip?" Hey, you must know that our company has just handled the relevant documents, and there is not even an employee at present, can people trust us?"

"Nonsense, my eldest son Qi shoots, can there be anything that can't be done?" he began to glow, "One is for Internet celebrities, one is for photography media, and the other is for technical service companies." The first two are in Shenzhen, and the last one is in Guangzhou, but the distance is not a problem, it is just their headquarters in Shenzhen, and there is also a branch in Guangzhou. ”

"Awesome!" I looked at Qi Min with an admiring expression and gave him a thumbs up.

This kid was praised by me so that the smile on his face was brighter than the sun, he smirked twice, and said, "Hey, let's not talk about this, the world is big, and the stomach is the big! Let's eat and drink first, come, let's go!"

"Cheers!"

This night, Qi Min really gave me a big surprise, because with these three partners, it is of great help to the early development of our company. I believe that it will be a good start to come back after the year!

......

The next morning, I got up early, and then packed my luggage to go home, and the high-speed rail ticket I bought in advance was at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, so there was still plenty of time, and I could just use this free time to go to the flower shop and say goodbye to Lan Yu by the way.

It's only nine o'clock in the morning, and Lan Yu is already busy in the store, and there are actually several people buying flowers inside, all of them are a couple, and it is estimated that they are all couples. I went in and said hello to Lan Yu, and then helped sell the flowers.

It was already past ten o'clock after I was busy, I poured a glass of water for Lan Yu and handed it over, saying: "I will go back to my hometown in the afternoon, tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, what are your plans?" After a slight pause, I asked again: "By the way, after knowing you for so long, I still don't know where your hometown is?"

"I don't have any plans, I'll just stay in the store and work, and someone will definitely come over to buy flowers during the Spring Festival." Lan Yu's voice was flat, but it seemed to be hiding some kind of emotion.

I was puzzled: "Huh, aren't you going home for the New Year?"

Lan Yu smiled self-deprecatingly, and said in a trance: "Home, I have been away from that so-called 'home' for ten years, and I have always lived with my cousin, and I have always regarded my cousin as my only relative in this world. She looked at me, "Where there is a family, that's called 'home'." ”

Lan Yu's family, she told me about it on the day Anne left, and she cried and told me about it at the door of Dark Fragrance, but I forgot about it at this time.

I was silent for a moment and said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have told you this. ”

"It's okay, it's not an important thing, I'm relieved for a long time. ”

I didn't explain whether I was referring to "going home for the New Year" or her family, so she directly said that she was "relieved a long time ago", which is tantamount to "there are no three hundred taels of silver here".

"There's still a lot to do after the year, so I won't be at home for too long and will be back soon, probably in a week or so. ”

"Just look at the arrangement, you don't have to tell me. She said casually, and then continued to work, I looked at the table on the computer screen, she was skillfully operating, it should be settling accounts, so I had to keep my mouth shut and let her work hard.

......

At three o'clock in the afternoon, I got on the high-speed train home on time, and as used to take the car, I put on my headphones and went straight to sleep on the chair, and woke up just when I got home.

I came out of the high-speed rail station at five o'clock, and this time I didn't ask Cheng Yu to drive over to pick me up, but took a ride home by myself, the purpose was to create a surprise for Cheng and his mother, as well as Cheng Yu.

As soon as I got home, I was walking down the road next to the door when I smelled the smell coming from the kitchen window, and it seemed that I had a delicious meal in the evening. It's like this every year, when it comes to the New Year's holidays, Lao Cheng cooks, and he does it with a special sense of ceremony, even if there are four of us in the family, but they will cook eight dishes, which means that there is a good omen.

Coincidentally, the door outside the house was just tethered, but not locked, so I went straight inside.

"Dad, Mom, Cheng Yu, I'm back!" I said with a smile, putting the suitcase in my hand on the side of the ground, and then walked to the kitchen, hey, it turns out that they are all here!

"You're back, you go and put your luggage away, and you can eat later." Mom smiled indifferently, the action of still choosing vegetables in her hand did not stop because of my appearance, Lao Cheng just turned his head to look at me, and only smiled lightly, and then continued to fry the vegetables, Cheng Yu ...... Not to mention, it almost turned a deaf ear to me.

Isn't my sudden appearance a surprise? No, something must have happened before I get back! Still, I held back my curiosity and walked out of the kitchen, and I'll talk about it later.

After the meal, it seemed that everyone's mood was no longer as cold as when I first came back, so I went to the suitcase while the iron was hot and took out the things I bought for my parents, smiled and introduced them for a while, and then took the initiative to go to the kitchen to help wash the dishes.

When I was done, Lao Cheng and his mother seemed to go up to the second floor to watch TV, but Cheng Yu was playing with his mobile phone in the tea room on the first floor alone, but I smelled smoke.

"Good boy, you actually secretly smoked while your parents were not on the first floor!" I walked over and said with a deliberately cold face. I don't know why, even though Cheng Yu and I have grown up so old, and we have already reached the age of talking about marriage and being the master of the house, we are still very afraid of the family rules set by our mother in the past, and once we are at home, we will always be afraid of those.

Cheng Yu's face was full of indifference, he flicked the cigarette ash, and said unscrupulously: "Mom and Dad are on it, do you want me to help you call them down and watch me smoke?"

I was stunned for a while, walked to the chair opposite him and sat down, then took out a pack of soft Chinese, took out a dot, and said with a smile: "I'm just kidding, you see, aren't we grasshoppers on a rope?"

As a result, I was choked by him for a sentence of "hypocrisy", I had to change my sitting posture and not look at him, the two of them smoked silently, until a cigarette was finished, I couldn't help but look at him and asked: "No, what are you doing all this stuffy!Ah? When I came back, I thought I could surprise everyone, but it turned out to be so plain and bland, but this meal is finished, and I will be left sitting here with you, you are still so silent, what are you doing?"

Cheng Yu was silent for a while, he snuffed out the cigarette butt in his original hand in the ashtray, then took out another one from my pack of soft Chinese and lit it, and then said in a low voice: "Because not long before you came back, Ke Ning's mother came to our house. ”
