Chapter 18: Zhou's Mother's Birthday (1)
The next morning, Guo Yang just went to work, and before he entered the office, many colleagues knew that he had bought a falling stock differently, three hundred hands, according to the closing price yesterday afternoon, Jinhong Holdings fell 3%, which means that in just a few hours, Guo Yang lost a thousand yuan.
Everyone else is chasing up, but he is chasing down. Compared with the elation of others who have earned hundreds of dollars and thousands of dollars today, he is actually not an alternative but a bad pen.
Lin Meimei slipped back from the stock market, and as soon as she entered the door, she shouted at Guo Yang: "Guo Yang, are you stupid? Are you stupid? You are guilty of a nervous disorder to buy that kind of stock? I can see it just now, it has fallen by another 2%, and you have bought 300 hands? It has only been less than a day, and you have lost 5%! Listen to my sister's advice, hurry up and cut the meat and clear the warehouse, lest the loss become bigger and bigger!"
Guo Yang was indifferent: "Lin Meimei, don't make a fuss, the stock market has risen and fallen, this is normal, what is the loss? I have confidence in it, you wait, I have a hunch, this stock will definitely become the biggest dark horse this year!"
Lin Meimei held her forehead with her hand and took a deep breath: "Guo Yang, you have changed a little bit in the past two days, you and the leader are considered to have a personality, but whimsically buying money-losing stocks is not a personality but a mistake - your family is not rich, and the money for stock speculation is your mother's savings, right? You took your mother's life savings and lost ......"
Guo Yang looked up at the charming Lin Meimei, and a trace of warmth passed through his heart. He knew that Lin Meimei was a knife-mouthed tofu heart, but her nature was extremely kind. She was completely kind, although Guo Yang didn't listen to her advice, but she felt that Lin Meimei was a little cute today.
Seeing that Guo Yang didn't listen to her, Lin Meimei pursed her lips, did it angrily, and ignored him. Guo Yang smiled and continued to bow his head to write his press release today.
In daily work, the trajectory of fate gradually overlaps with previous lives. This kind of cookie-cutter, old-fashioned and blunt local small press release really can't arouse Guo Yang's great interest.
He sat there and kept thinking about what kind of gift he should give on Sunday, that is, the day after tomorrow - at the birthday party of Zhou's mother Xue Chunlan. He still has 80,000 cash on hand, as well as some gold bars and Hong Kong dollars, and it is not a problem to buy any valuables, but the last thing the Zhou family lacks is money, and buying luxury goods for Xue Chunlan not only does not attract her attention, but on the contrary, it is easy to arouse her suspicion. A poor boy from a poor family suddenly spent tens of thousands of dollars to buy things, she didn't doubt it.
When he was about to get off work, Guo Yang met Sun Fatzi in the corridor unexpectedly. The ruthlessness in Sun Fatzi's eyes was overflowing, he used to maintain the image of a basic leader, but after the turmoil in the conference room, he faced Guo Yang and completely exposed Chi Guoguo's hideous face.
Guo Yang ignored it. He has too much to do now, Sun Fatzi is just an insignificant passer-by in his life's journey, and wasting too much energy and time on him is completely consuming his life.
Guo Yang passed by Sun Fatzi, he floated forward, and clearly heard the sound of Sun Fatzi stomping his feet in shame behind him.
Editor Hu Sheng walked over from the other end of the corridor and saw Guo Yang's expression slightly embarrassed. That day, he was either forced or took the initiative to fall into Guo Yang's ground, Guo Yang didn't care too much, but he couldn't get over this hurdle himself. In the past two days, Hu Sheng has been avoiding Guo Yang, and Guo Yang has not bothered to take the initiative to ease relations with Hu Sheng.
Regarding Hu Sheng's behavior, he can't talk about holding grudges, but he can't talk about good feelings. Obviously, after this incident, the friendship between the two can never return to the past, and in the future, at most they will be ordinary colleagues who meet and greet each other.
Guo Yang nodded to Hu Sheng and left.
Hu Sheng stopped, turned his head to look at Guo Yang's departing Junyi back, and sighed secretly. Although he was ashamed, he didn't feel that he had done wrong, Guo Yang offended the leader in charge, and under the pressure of the leader in charge, he had to choose a position. You can't let him stand on Guo Yang's side and confront the high-ranking Sun Fatzi, right?
You have Mr. Zhao's appreciation, but I don't have a backer! What should I do?! Hu Sheng muttered a few words, forcibly comforted himself with some kind of barely passable reason, and turned around and walked lonely.
As night fell, Guo Yang returned home, and his mother went to tutor the students as usual and was not at home. Guo Yang was a little helpless, he took out the five thousand cash that had been prepared long ago from his bag, and attached a note, writing clearly that this was his bonus this year and left it for his mother's family.
He has the heart to leave all the 80,000 yuan in cash to his mother, with these 80,000 yuan, it is enough to improve the family situation and life, and he can even scrape together some more money to buy a set of three sets of commercial housing, after all, the housing price in the ordinary area of the city is only in the early 1,000s. But he knew that this would frighten Xie Yuzhi, and she would wonder where her money came from.
Guo Yang returned to his room, took the red cotton guitar that his mother bought for him with a two-month bonus from the top of the cabinet, and tentatively played and tuned it. Playing the guitar is a relatively fashionable thing for young people in this era, Guo Yang learned and soon became a guitar master in the Department of Journalism in his freshman year, and his acquaintance with Zhou Bing came from the New Year's party organized by the department.
He can write poems and is a well-known campus poet. The guitar is played well, and the voice condition is also at the middle and upper level, Guo Yang, who was carrying this guitar and holding a book of Wang Guozhen's poems in the past, walked on the campus of Yan University, so he was favored by many sentimental girls. Zhou Bing is one of them.
In that green years in full swing, the exchanges between university monks were relatively simple, and there were not too many flies and dogs in society, so Guo Yang, who was from a poor family, swept the campus with these two killer weapons, either shaking his head coquettishly and reciting poems, or playing the guitar and flying his hair and roaring in his voice, handsome and cool, it was easier to get a girl than those rich second-generation officials.
Of course, after establishing a relationship with Zhou Bing, Zhou Bing looked at him very closely, which made Guo Yang's girl pickling method stillborn before it was formed.
This night, the Zhou family. Zhou Bing hid in his bedroom, thinking about it and hesitating. Introducing Guo Yang at his mother's birthday party was something that Zhou Bing had planned for several days. In this way, she tried to declare her unwavering love to her parents and the outside world. She understood that her mother valued this party very much, and she kept thinking about whether to give Guo Yang some money and let him buy a chic and decent birthday gift to please her mother.
She even thought of what was the best birthday gift for Guo Yang. There is no shortage of gold and silver jewelry, precious items are too cheesy, Xue Chunlan, as a cultural person, likes to collect books. She knew that Xinhua Bookstore had just released a set of collector's editions of "Twenty-Four History", and her mother had not yet had time to buy it.
But this set of books is priced at thousands of yuan, which is definitely a luxury item that ordinary people can't afford and don't want to buy at the moment, and it's too difficult to buy it with Guo Yang's income. Of course, if she proposes it, Guo Yang will buy it even if she does everything she can. But how could the empathetic Zhou Bing make his lover so embarrassed?
Therefore, when Zhou Bing went on a date with Guo Yang at noon that day, he carried 10,000 yuan in cash, wanting Guo Yang to buy the set of books as a birthday gift for his mother. This will definitely please the mother. But Zhou Bing knew that Guo Yang's self-esteem was very strong, and he would definitely not accept his money. The two of them finally returned to the origin of their relationship, and she didn't dare to easily touch Guo Yang's sensitive nerves.
