Chapter 55: Crispy Duck
I understand that some words can only be treated as if he is farting, and he doesn't even comment on the smell, so I peeled off a lychee and ate it myself slowly.
Before the dishes were ready, Lao Zhang rushed over with Mrs. Li, and Mrs. Zhang also appeared with Zhang Puyun, and finally Xi Meijing actually appeared in my sight.
I heard that this woman is very good, and now she has begun to work as a project manager and participate in the business he took over with the Zhang family.
"Oh, Ying Tai, it's also there!" As soon as Xi Meijing appeared, she immediately warmly grabbed me and apologized warmly, "Last time, I saw a few CEOs who were loving me, and I was happy and greedy for a while, which made Ying too unhappy, and I should be too much to bear." ”
"Do I know you very well?" I shook off her and pretended to be affectionate and grabbed my hand, "Today it is still these bosses who love you, you just drink, I have no opinion." ”
The whole table looked at the two of us, I didn't care, I had to pay back the anger, otherwise there would be no such shop in this village.
"Yes, Mrs. Ying is right, it is my honor that I can be valued by all the CEOs, I must drink and drink happily. Xi Meijing's boldness immediately won the applause of the audience, and Lao Zhang even asked the waiter to pour her wine one after another.
"Sister Xi, you can order another dish. "Elf Beans gave her the recipe, but she looked at me with her eyes.
"You should help me too. Xi Meijing presented the recipe to me with both hands.
"Let's just crispy roast duck, it's crispy and rotten. I didn't even look at it, I just reported the name of the dish, and the waiter next to me began to type it into the ordering machine.
"This, I rarely eat ducks, so let's change to something else. Xi Meijing smiled and discussed with me.
"Isn't it possible to eat it if you don't eat it very much, is it because Sister Xi can't eat it?"
The more she spoke, the more explicit she became, Xi Meijing's face was a little unbearable, and she withdrew her hand in embarrassment and coughed dryly.
Fortunately, there were only the two of us at the table arguing, and there was really no one to watch the battle, and Xi Meijing's face was not too much to lose.
"Okay, that's all ......," I put away the recipe and handed it to the waiter.
After this meeting, I refused to participate in any gatherings, and was completely silent, not wanting to talk or see people.
Elf Beans was busy with his entertainment, every day was like a chicken's blood, and the business went to the next level, making him energetic, as if he was ten years younger.
"If you don't like socializing, you don't go, you can do whatever you like. He spoke to me as if he understood.
Whatever his purpose for saying this to me, as long as he doesn't force me to accompany him, I can't do that much.
I couldn't live a boring life, I was afraid of seeing people and I was afraid that I would be too lonely around me, I began to try to learn some hobbies, singing I refused, asking me to sing about those dreamy love is simply torture; art did not dare to touch at all, afraid that the pen was all about painting his thoughts; so I chose the guzheng to learn the peace and tranquility of the ancients, plain and lofty.
A few hundred dollars a lesson is worth it now, a luxury that I had never fantasized about before, but now it is just a means for me to pass the time of boredom.
I chose to study at an art gallery half a city away from Zhang Liexing's jewelry store, and I was taught a lean middle-aged man in his forties with a ponytail.
"I want to learn from Guanglingsan. I told him that he was surprised, and his little eyes were full of good-natured smiles.
"You're new to it, I'm afraid it's difficult. He said, go and show me the first zither in my life.
"I know that anything miracle can happen in this world, and I can learn slowly. I sat down in front of the guzheng and said to him, "Thank you, please don't dislike it." ”
He nodded, plucked the strings, and started with the basics.
Actually, I paid the tuition fee in one lump sum every month, and he had no reason to dislike me, even if I learned to collapse, but for him this was his preference, and it was something he was willing to do for the rest of his life.
"What are you busy with?" Jieyun, who hadn't seen him for a long time, called.
"Oh, it's not busy, it's not the same. I replied to her absentmindedly.
"But I've participated in two company activities, and Mr. Gao also came, but it's the old woman who accompanies him, it's a pity, you can't have any problems, right?"
Unexpectedly, I didn't notice anything wrong with Gao Qiang, "No, he's busy with him, whoever accompanies him is, anyway, he's a husband." "I don't care about him, especially now that I'm too exhausted to think about anything else.
"What sound, how does it look like playing cotton?" Jieyun suddenly asked me after a while, and she was telling me what I was doing in the quiet time.
I stopped plucking the strings and coughed, "No, you heard me wrong." ”
"Oh......" Jieyun sounded a little unguessable disappointment, "to keep in touch, it's a pity, find me to play when you have time." ”
"Good. I continued to be perfunctory, she didn't care about my attitude, in fact, she was proud to have contact with me.
"Zhang Gongzi came to me. Just as I was about to hang up, Jieyun spoke again.
Too abrupt topic, "What?" I asked, my brain crashing for a few seconds, not understanding what she was going to say.
"He knows everything, Wu Tan, and that old woman, her name is Xi Meijing, and he asked me a lot about you, and I can only tell him one by one. In a relaxed tone, "You'll not mind, will you?"
Where would I mind, I'm already used to it, "It's not the first time you've betrayed me, why bother asking, let's say, what benefits did you get this time?"
Jieyun smiled when he ate, "How can you benefit every time, you have to look at the long run." ”
"Oh, so you're pretty business-minded. ”
My sarcasm didn't hurt Jieyun at all, and she continued her topic, "Wu Tan can be regarded as good luck, Zhang Gongzi recruited him into the jewelry store, you know that this is the place where young people in our city have to break their heads, but I heard that he doesn't seem to be doing well, and he was beaten by Zhang Gongzi a few times." ”
My heart ached so hard that I couldn't breathe as if I was being caught in my throat by a big hand, "Why did he hit someone?" I yelled, unable to control my emotions.
"Sorry, shouldn't you be happy? He hurt you so badly, what's wrong with a few beatings? If I can get into such a good place after a few beatings, I'd rather endure it. When Jieyun said this, he suddenly elongated his voice with a tone of sudden realization, "You won't still be thinking about him, will you?"
I hung up in a panic, afraid that she would hear me.
