Two days later, Hu Er reported to Jiang Tao that the investigation was clear, and the ivy bath was opened in the north of the city, the scale was comparable to ours, and the boss was Yao Zheng.

Jiang Tao listened, nodded and smiled: "Ivy, it's quite a bright name." I'm in the south of the city, he's in the north of the city, and we're all on the same side, so it's okay to be safe. ”

Hu Er looked at him puzzled, "Boss, how can you say that everything is fine?"

Jiang Tao looked out the window and asked, "What, what do you think?"

"Of course there is, Yao Zheng is young, where did he get so much money to open a bath?"

"He doesn't have any money, maybe his relatives do. You're not from the Anti-Corruption Bureau, so what's your business?"

Hu Er was unconvinced and said: "Let's put this aside, what is he Yao Zheng doing badly, why is he also opening a bath?

Jiang Tao returned to the boss's chair, "This is not illegal." ”

"Anyway, I just felt that something was wrong. Hey, by the way, boss, last time all departments jointly enforced the law and raided us, do you think this matter has anything to do with Yao Zheng?"

Jiang Tao spread his hands and said, "It's not okay for you to chase the wind and shadows like this." When you figure it out, come back to me. ”

Hu Er shook his head vigorously and went out unwillingly.

Looking at his back, Jiang Tao thought to himself, don't say it, this guy is enlightened and has a bit of a brain.

After pondering for a while, he got up and went out, lifted the curtain, entered the men's bath, stripped naked, took a hearty shower, washed away the fatigue of his body, and felt that the refreshing feeling on his body was really incomparable, very comfortable, and he became refreshed again.

He looked in the mirror, meticulously combed his hair, and changed into clean clothes. He was going to meet Li Feifei, and the two were going to go to shabu shabu together. This is a suggestion made by Li Feifei.

When shabu-shabu was cooking, Li Feifei drank some red wine. Looking at her elegant posture with a goblet, Jiang Tao remembered a sentence: "Moth eyebrows and crescents, a glass of red wine." At this moment, what he felt was such an artistic conception.

He wondered, what was wrong with him, Li Feifei was like a magnet, attracting him, and he couldn't pull it away.

He stared at her hand holding chopsticks, had nothing to say, and sighed: "The girl's hand is so beautiful." ”

Li Feifei glanced at his hands, "In our business, we often serve dishes and settle bills for customers, and our hands are also a façade." From time to time, you need to do some skin care and wear some nail polish. ”

Jiang Tao said curiously: "Oh, have you put on nail polish? Why didn't I see it?"

"It's that colorless nail polish. In the catering industry, it is most taboo to paint your nails bright red or bells and whistles. So as not to make diners feel uncomfortable. ”

Jiang Tao asked: "What effect can colorless nail polish do?"

"It makes the nails look shinier and gives a very healthy feeling. It's the same as wearing a colorless lipstick. ”

"Oh, and the colorless lipstick? ”

Jiang Tao once heard that Li Feifei's husband was a civil servant. However, some people say that her husband is a section-level cadre in a public institution. But Jiang Tao didn't deliberately inquire, he wasn't interested in any of them, he only cared about the topics he was interested in. "Hmm...... Your parents, why did you name you Feifei?"

Li Feifei shook his head, "I don't know either." ”

"I want you to fly higher and higher, right?"

Li Feifei smiled, "Maybe." ”

While chatting happily with each other, Jiang Tao planned to get to the point. At present, he only knows that he is from the Messier Nebula, but the so-called nebula generally refers to diffuse celestial bodies, that is, interstellar clouds formed by the aggregation of dust, hydrogen, helium and other ionizing gases. And how can there be life on such a nebula? He wanted to ask Li Feifei, where did we come from, and what is going on with us?

Before he could speak, Li Feifei's mobile phone rang suddenly. After answering, she said: "Brother Jiang, I'm really embarrassed, the boss said that there are guests who have come to discuss the banquet, let me go back immediately." ”

Jiang Tao smiled helplessly, sighed and said, "It's really a good thing and a lot of grinding." Last time, I had something to do. This time it's your turn again. Since there is something to do, then you should go and get busy first. Let's find another opportunity to get together. ”

……

Time is like an arrow, and in a blink of an eye, it has reached the end of the year. At dusk that day, Jiang Tao parked the Land Rover on the side of the road and walked towards the open-air market.

This open-air market, mile-la-la-la, can be pulled out for a mile long. In today's large-scale urban beautification project, retreat into the hall of the climate, the open-air market, is gradually shrinking, can be retained, are in the edge of the city, but the fire is abnormal.

As the year approaches, the festive atmosphere in the market is becoming more and more prominent, and the agricultural and sideline products are dizzying. While thinking about it in his heart, Jiang Tao randomly bought cocoon chrysalis, red mushrooms, celery and a piece of tofu with brine. In terms of his eating habits, he is particularly back to basics and has a special Northeast taste. For example, using fermented cornmeal, picking up some sour soup, and then stir-frying cocoon chrysalis is enough to boost his appetite and eat a ditch. And like any delicacies from the mountains and seas, they are all in name only, nothing more than a false name, how can they catch up with the real food in the farmhouse? Rich people who can afford to eat delicacies from the mountains and seas every day live longer than ordinary people? Not necessarily?

I saw that there was a stove candy for sale. What, is the twenty-third day of the lunar month coming? Get a bag of stove candy and go back to eat with Doudou. Although he is getting older year by year, Jiang Tao always has a childlike heart, and when he is happy, he can buy a bunch of toys and play with his son in the dark.

The market is not halfway through, and my hands are full of Dengdeng, and I can't take it. Back to the car, back to the car, back to continue shopping.

I saw the bright red Kunimitsu apple. I'm used to eating red Fuji, so it's not bad to change the taste, come to five catties. On the opposite meat case, there is a pig's head, probably because the blood is not put well, the pig's face is red and red, like Guan Gong in the Peking Opera mask. When I was young, if I bought a pig's head at home, it would be regarded as pushing the festive atmosphere to a climax. But now I'm not interested, and when I see big fish and big meat, I feel greasy.

As he shuttled through the crowd and squeezed around, he didn't notice that there was a woman who was silently watching him. The woman was wrapped in a brown mink coat with black leather trousers underneath, and her shawl hair was shiny. Melon seed face, handsome appearance. She stared at Jiang Tao, thinking in her heart that this enemy is becoming more and more mature and more manly.

Jiang Tao finally felt that there was a pair of strange eyes staring at him, and as soon as he raised his head, the eyes of the two met at once. None of them expected that they would meet in such a place, and there was a strange surprise in each other's eyes. The woman's gaze shifted from his face to his hand, and she couldn't help pouting: "Yo, I've bought so many New Year's goods." And what about me? You're going to give me a copy too. ”

Jiang Tao shook the things in his hand and said, "This is not a New Year's product, just a normal meal." ”

"I don't care, you'll have to get me one anyway. The woman's hair has a kind of charm that seduces the soul, she grabbed Jiang Tao's arm and shook Jiang Tao's soul.

Jiang Tao didn't like to show affection in front of so many people, so he hurriedly said: "Don't make trouble, let's get in the car." ”

So, like a fish, the woman slipped into the car. Jiang Tao watched her movements, and the image of the person who invited him to her house to paint appeared in front of him a few years ago. At this time, Hong Ye added a bit of mature charm compared to that time.

The encounter at this time made Jiang Tao feel a lot of emotion, if he hadn't left resolutely, he would not have achieved who he is today, which is called a gain and a loss. The so-called way of choice means that those who are big husbands should be able to afford and let go. At this time, facing this woman again, the inferiority complex he had at the beginning had completely disappeared without a trace. Because he has already achieved a career and has become a big boss, he can be on an equal footing with her, and he can also look directly into her eyes, which is called cool. A sense of pride that he had never felt before was born in his heart. He thought with great ambition that his current self was completely different from the humble self at the beginning, and they were two people who could not speak the same day. What's more, she's just one of her own guards.

In addition, people's aesthetic views are not static, and will change over time, at different times, and in different places. For example, Jiang Tao used to admire a Hong Kong actress and felt that she was particularly feminine. But as time went by, he felt that the actress was no longer in style, and his good impression of her gradually faded.

Once, in a large shopping mall, he saw a fashionable girl wearing coffee-colored lipstick. At that time, this color of lipstick, which had just become popular, was very cool, completely subverting the traditional appreciation habit of using bright red lipstick as the mainstream and white lip red as the beauty. Jiang Tao also highly praised this. Actually, the girl wasn't very beautiful, but this avant-garde, popular color lipstick added a lot of color to her, which was very eye-catching. Therefore, Jiang Tao looked at her a few more times. And the girl was also looking at Jiang Tao. also deliberately raised his arm and tidied up his hair that was not messy, as if he was scratching his head and making a gesture.

However, in retrospect at this moment, Jiang Tao was not cold to the coffee-colored lipstick at all. Because the coffee-colored lipstick, while giving people a kind of coldness, it will also make people feel sick and uncomfortable. That pop of color is just a gust of wind. Then, it disappeared.

Also, he has always liked fair-skinned and tall girls. But once, he saw a girl who was not tall and had dark skin, but the girl was black and shiny, and her body was very shapely. And he is dressed decently, still on his forehead, buttoning a pair of beautiful sunglasses, looking young and beautiful, radiant, and very healthy and fashionable. Jiang Tao fell in love with her immediately. He couldn't help but feel very confused, why did he suddenly like the black girl again? It seems that aesthetic taste will change imperceptibly over time, as well as the different experiences and experiences of each person, and it is not immutable. This is just like a person's life, the standard for judging right and wrong is not immutable.

At this moment, facing Hong Ye, Jiang Tao's psychology has undergone subtle changes, and he no longer worships her as a goddess, but only regards her as a confidant. She no longer has an aura of mystery.

The cold wind outside, the heating in the car is melting, and the narrow space is full of the smell of perfume on Hong Ye's body. The trunks of the trees on both sides of the road were bare, and they seemed to be even more empty.

"We haven't seen each other for five or six years, have we?" Jiang Tao recalled.

"Besides, I don't have a conscience. Back then, you said you would just leave, it was too heartless, right? How are you supposed to compensate me?"

Jiang Tao said with some embarrassment: "At the beginning, I had to do it as a last resort." ”

"You men, you are all conscienceless, and you are all bent on how you can soar, completely ignoring the feelings of women. ”

Hong Ye seemed to be full of complaints. Jiang Tao listened silently and let her vent. Unconsciously, it was already dark, and in this ambiguous night, both of them were a little distracted.

In fact, Hong Ye never really left Jiang Tao. If she really ignores Jiang Tao, then she, the guard, will be derelict in her duties. It's just that Jiang Tao doesn't know anything about it.

Her complaint is just whining and putting on a show. Hong Ye continued to count: "For so long, you didn't come to see me, but it's really ruthless?"

Jiang Tao said: "Since I left you, I am embarrassed to go back." ”

"What about today, can you make an exception and come and sit with me?"

Jiang Tao knew what she wanted to do. From the bottom of his heart, Jiang Tao is still very grateful to her. Because when she was down, it was rare for her to appear in time, which was a great encouragement to Jiang Tao. People like to put icing on the cake, and few people go to the snow to deliver charcoal. But for the icing on the cake, people will quickly forget. But for the people who send charcoal in the snow, it is unforgettable and unforgettable.

Even out of gratitude, Jiang Tao had no reason to refuse. So he said, "Well, go to me." ”

"Go to you?" Hong Ye was a little surprised: "Is it convenient?"

"Of course it's convenient. I recently bought another house, and I haven't told my daughter-in-law yet. She didn't know it at all. ”
