Chapter 6, Seven Days is Enough
That's right, it's the fitness guidebook.
It's just that the description is more detailed, including push-ups, pull-ups, sit-ups and other fitness actions on the exercise effect and principle of various parts of the body.
When Xue Jian turned to the last few pages, he was happy in his heart, and there was a mental formula behind it, which could make him quench his body twice the result with half the effort.
It can be said that this is the core of this basic exercise.
Xue Jian excitedly took the exercises back to the long collapse, and by the light of the red candle, he silently remembered in his heart.
The night passed quietly, and early the next morning, there was a gentle knock on the door, which made Xue Jian wake up from his sleep.
He hurriedly put the exercise book on his head into his arms, got up and sorted it out, walked over and opened the door.
The four maids of Zhiqin came in with a basin of water and a towel, and began to serve Chu Yiyi and Xue Jian, who had just gotten up, to freshen up.
While washing, Zhiqin walked into the inner room alone, picked up a white handkerchief placed on the bed, and saw that it was stained with blood, so he immediately put it away.
At this time, Zhihua, who was cleaning up the room, suddenly said in surprise.
"Why is the vase at the door missing? Sister Zhiqin, have you seen it?"
"No, how could it be gone, obviously it was still there last night. ”
The answer to her was another little girl, Zhiqi.
After Zhiqin put away the handkerchief and walked out, she glanced at both sides of the gate, there was originally a vase on the left and right, but now there was only one vase on the right.
Don't look at this vase next to the door, it is not very inconspicuous, but they understand how precious each vase is, and if they lose one, they will not escape the blame.
At this time, Xue Jian said with an embarrassed smile.
"When I woke up last night, I accidentally broke one, this ...... It shouldn't be a big deal, right?"
The four of Zhiqin looked at each other, if it was an ordinary vase, it would be okay if it was broken, but this vase was a five-hundred-year-old antique.
Chu Yiyi glanced at Xue Jian and said lightly.
"Forget it if it's broken, you can tell the butler the truth. ”
After speaking, she slowly got up, motioned for Xue Jian to follow, and the two walked all the way to the front yard.
On the first day of the wedding, there are still many things to do, such as serving tea and worshipping and offering incense to the ancestors.
Walking in the unmanned corridor, Chu Yiyi suddenly slowed down and said coldly.
"I don't care what your reason is, stealing the vase, just this once, not the next one. ”
Yesterday was a long night, and Chu Yiyi didn't sleep much, so she knew that Xue Jian must be lying when she broke the vase at night.
As for the reason, Chu Yiyi didn't bother to investigate it deeply, because this incident completely shattered the little good impression that Xue Jian had finally left yesterday.
Xue Jian nodded silently and said nothing.
I was careless, I was only thinking about the 100 virtual coins, and I didn't expect the consequences of this.
He decided that after making money in the future, he would definitely redeem the vase and return it to its original owner, and no matter how he could leave his daughter-in-law with the impression of a thief who liked to lie.
When I arrived in the front yard hall, there were already a lot of people here.
A dignified-looking middle-aged man sitting in the high hall was none other than Chu Donghe, the head of the Chu family.
There is also a middle-aged woman next to him who looks seven or eight points similar to Chu Yiyi, who is extremely well maintained, it is Chu Yiyi's mother, Xue Jian's mother-in-law.
Most of the other people on both sides are middle-aged, and it seems that they should be from Chu Yiyi's uncle's generation, except for a thirteen or fourteen teenager standing behind Chu Donghe.
This young man looks delicate and handsome, somewhat similar to Chu Yiyi, but more similar to Chu Donghe, as if he was young.
He is Chu Yiyi's own brother, Chu Lingfeng, and he also cleared the old lady of the Chu family yesterday, so Xue Jian had a good impression of this young man.
The two newlyweds arrived, and then the tea ceremony was served.
Chu Yiyi and Xue Jian served tea together, and those uncles and uncles received Chu Yiyi's tea, almost all of them greeted each other with smiling faces and praised each other.
But when it came to Xue Jian, almost no one had a good face for him, at most, he would give two sentences of advice, let Xue Jian be a good man, and don't cause trouble.
Finally, when Xue saw the tea to his father-in-law, Chu Donghe had a cold face and did not take the teacup for a long time.
Xue saw that he was hunched over and holding the teacup with both hands, until his hands began to tremble a little, and Chu Donghe said coldly.
"Look at you like this, you can't even hold a cup of tea, it's really a waste. ”
Xue Jian lowered his head, clenched his teeth, and a sense of humiliation welled up in his heart, but he still said respectfully.
"Father-in-law, please have tea. ”
Chu Donghe slapped his hand, knocked the tea to the ground, and said angrily.
"Still drinking tea, you know how much loss my Chu family has to suffer because of yesterday's incident, this morning, three stores announced that they would break off cooperation with my Chu family, and I am afraid there will be more in the future. ”
As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar.
Those Chu Yiyi's uncles and uncles all changed their faces, shocked and angry, and it was even more difficult to hide the panic in their eyes.
Chu Yiyi was also extremely surprised.
She knew that yesterday's incident would definitely have such an impact on the Chu family, but she didn't expect it to be so fast and have such a big impact.
No wonder, no wonder my father had such a big anger early in the morning, and he vented it all on Xue Jian.
After Xue saw the mistake, he suddenly raised his head and said.
"Since I caused it, it is up to me to fix it. ”
Chu Donghe sneered and replied unceremoniously.
"Redeem it, you said it easily, even if you are handed over to the Xu family now, there is nothing to make up. ”
Xue Jian's expression was resolute, and he replied with a sense of confidence in his eyes.
"What I'm talking about is that I will rely on my own skills to help the Chu family earn back all the losses. ”
Chu Donghe laughed angrily, and those uncles and uncles also looked at Xue Jian with a sneer, I really don't know if this kid who doesn't know the height of the sky is crazy, or if he is extremely stupid.
I dare to say this kind of big talk.
Chu Yiyi couldn't help but pull Xue Jian's sleeve, frowned and said in a low voice.
"Xue Jian, what are you talking nonsense, quickly apologize to my father. ”
Chu Donghe slapped the table with his big hand, stood up, made eye contact with Xue Jian, and said coldly.
"Anyone will say big things, if you can really do what you say, I Chu Donghe recognizes you as a son-in-law, but you can't do it......"
Before he finished speaking, Xue Jian interrupted him loudly.
"I can't do it, I Xue Jian consciously got out of the Chu family, and I have nothing to do with the Chu family from now on. ”
His gaze was compelling, his expression was firm, although he looked like a sick seedling, but at this moment, he was not weaker than Chu Donghe, who had already reached the Danyuan realm.
Chu Donghe shouted "Okay", and then he opened his mouth word by word.
"Then I'll wait until you've done what you say before drinking this cup of tea. ”
The two of them made trouble at this point, which Chu Yiyi didn't want to see the most, she wanted to open her mouth to persuade her, but when the words came to her mouth, she still swallowed it.
Whether he can fight for a breath or not depends on himself.
Then Chu Yiyi said his thoughts and wanted Xue Jian to take care of an old shop of the Chu family.
Chu Donghe didn't have an opinion, but after nodding, he added.
"This kind of old store is not very profitable, it should be a test for you, I will give you a month, within a month, if you take care of the store to improve, it will prove that you have the qualifications to take care of the Chu family's business. ”
Xue Jian replied firmly.
"Not a month, seven days is enough. ”
As a gold medal salesman in the 21st century, this confidence is still there.
"Seven days, isn't this kid crazy?"
"In seven days, he probably can't even sort out the account books, how can there be any improvement?"
"This kid must be talking gibberish, broken jars. ”
The elders around all looked suspicious, and they all said their own words, but Chu Donghe didn't care about it, and said in a deep voice.
"This is what you said yourself, everyone present can testify, if you can't do it after seven days, please consciously get out of the Chu family. ”
Xue Jian nodded confidently.
After that, Chu Yiyi took him to the ancestral hall to perform the incense ceremony to worship the ancestors.
He didn't say a word along the way, and it wasn't until he lit incense and prepared to worship the ancestral tablet that Chu Yiyi asked in a cold voice.
"Do you want to break away from the Chu family through this means?"
Xue Jian shook his head and replied firmly.
"I just want to get the approval of the Chu family and fight for you. ”
After speaking, he bowed with his legs bent and knelt under the ancestral tablet of the Chu family, since he entered the Chu family, it was the Chu family, how could he easily get out.
Subsequently, Chu Yiyi took Xue Jian to find the housekeeper who managed the foreign affairs business.
The Chu family has a big business, and there are two big housekeepers, one is in charge of foreign affairs and the other is in charge of chores within the family.
The butler outside the main hall was named Chu Shan, a middle-aged man in his forties, with an extraordinary bearing, from whom he could see both the shrewd philistine of a merchant and the perseverance and might of a martial artist.
It is worth mentioning that he, like Xue Jian, is the son-in-law of the Chu family.
It's just that this person's previous family was too small, and he changed his surname to Chu when he joined the Chu family.
Although the Xue family is now in decline, after all, it is kind to the Chu family, so Xue Jian was able to keep the surname Xue, not the same as this Chu Mountain housekeeper.
Chu Yiyi handed over Xue Jian to Chu Shan, explained a few words, and left directly.
After Xue Jian chatted with this housekeeper, he knew that he was also a son-in-law, so he began to regard himself as a junior, giving enough respect to the housekeeper, and did not treat people as people at all.
Whether it is in business, in the workplace, or even in officialdom, seniors must be respected, but they should not be too humble, so as not to be looked down upon.
Walking all the way out of Chu's house, passing through several bustling streets, the two came to the mouth of a sparsely populated alley, where there was a small rice shop.
Chu Shan has a lot of affection for this young uncle, but rules are rules, and he will never give convenience because of a few good words.
"Uncle, this rice shop has been around for some years, and it is the ancestral property of our Chu family.
It's just that in recent years, the city has expanded, and the flow of people has dispersed to the new city, and there are not many people in the old streets and alleys here, so that there are many fewer people who come here to buy rice, and business is sluggish.
The head of the family said that if the rice shop is not profitable in these two months, it will close its doors and send all the good rice to the rice shop in the new city. ”
Xue saw that he was a little puzzled, and glanced around, but there was no one on the street here.
"Since this is the old street and alley in the past, there must be a lot of older generation living nearby, why doesn't anyone come to buy rice?"
Food is the foundation of life, and every household needs it, so there is no worry about not being able to sell it.
This business is a good business, it should be Chu Yiyi's explanation, and Chu Shan has thought about it carefully.
Chu Shan smiled bitterly.
"In the past, there were a lot of regular customers, but in the past few years, they have been moving to the new town.
There are only a few shrewd households who live here who have not negotiated the relocation price, and they know that the price of rice in the new city is lower, so they would rather run a dozen more streets than come here to buy rice. ”
Xue Jian smiled, it turned out that this side was demolished.
"Then why hasn't this alley been relocated?"
"The city lord hasn't decided on a specific demolition plan yet, and it may take a few more years, otherwise this rice shop would have closed a long time ago. ”
Next, Xue Jian asked a lot more about this street.
Big and small things, many housekeepers didn't pay attention to the details, and Xue Jian also asked them clearly.
This made Chu Shan's heart have a great change in his heart about this young man.
