Meilan bamboo chrysanthemum occupies an important position in traditional Chinese culture, and has the reputation of "four gentlemen in flowers" since ancient times. Meilan bamboo chrysanthemum, occupy all spring, summer, autumn and winter. Plum, noble and proud, orchid, elegant and ethereal, bamboo, humble and modest, chrysanthemum, cold and chaste. Its common feature is unremitting self-improvement, Tsinghua University, outside of it, in the midst of it, not to flatter the world. It is precisely because of the fascination for this aesthetic personality realm that since ancient times, Meilan Zhuju "Four Gentlemen" has always become a symbol of Chinese sense of things, and it is also the most common subject in poetry and literati painting. The Chinese carry their own true feelings in a flower, a grass, a stone and a tree, so that the flower, wood, grass and stone are separated from or expand the original meaning, and become a symbol and metaphor of personality. The four kinds of personality beauty represented by Meilan Zhuju - noble, elegant, righteous and indifferent, have always been the highest spiritual realm that Chinese literati strive for.

In the Ming Dynasty, Huangfengchi had "Meilan Bamboo Chrysanthemum Four Spectrums", and since then, Meilan Bamboo Chrysanthemum has been called "Four Gentlemen". It was from that time that the four major families were established, regardless of political changes, wind and rain. The four major families stand tall on the land of the Chinese nation, standing tall.

In the era of the Mei family, gold and silver jewelry were used as business, and the ancestral land was Longteng, and the business spread all over the country. But ordinary people only see the bright side of this ancient family, but they don't know that at this time, he is already overwhelmed.

Mei Yihong, the contemporary head of the Mei family, who was lying in Nolan Hospital, a private hospital in which the Mei family had shares, looked at the snow-white ceiling and thought about the current situation of the Mei family. Since seventeen years ago, his only sons, Mei Qing and Lan Xiu, suffered a car accident, and the newborn baby, who was not yet a full moon, was nowhere to be seen. The situation of the Mei family can only be maintained by him alone. But Jiang is still old and spicy, since he got the person's prompt and knew that his grandson was still alive, Mr. Mei let out his voice, and his granddaughter was sent abroad by himself. And he began to regain control of the Mei family's business, although it is no longer the glory of the Mei family, but relying on the connections he worked hard in the early years, the major bosses will also sell themselves a face, and dare not do anything overstepping.

But manpower is sometimes exhausted, although Mr. Mei also wants to be the old man, but no one can resist the erosion of the years, this year he is already seventy and two of his body is not as good as a day, these years of shopping malls have worked hard, and the aging is also very fast. Looking at those guys of his generation who are still alive and well, Mei Lao has no regrets and frustrations, because he has to wait for someone, and when that person returns to Mei's house, he can leave with peace of mind.

"Grandpa, why are you in a daze again, don't worry, the doctor said that you are in good health, as long as you recuperate for a while. The seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl who walked into this heavily guarded room was Mei Xiuqing, the granddaughter of Mei Lao, and named it to mourn her poor son and daughter-in-law.

Looking at the visitor, Mei Lao smiled dotingly: "Xiaoqing, aren't you playing with that kid from the Lan family in Longteng Mountain today? Why are you here with grandpa now." Mei Xiuqing smiled and said: "Grandpa, every time I go out with him, I have a few bodyguards around me, how can I have fun, it's better to accompany grandpa." ”

Mei Lao smiled and said to the girl: "I don't know you yet, let's say, what do you want to buy again." The girl smiled and said: "I think the Maybach of the Lan family brother is very good, but I still like the Ferrari Rafa, grandpa, you buy me one, I am going to college in two months, and I just need a car." ”

"Okay, maple leaf, you accompany Miss on a trip and complete the formalities and everything. The girl who got the old man's permission happily followed Uncle Maple Leaf away, thinking that when school started, how fashionable it would be for Rafa to go to school, she must be a little public deed that everyone envies.

Mei Lao looked at the departing girl, and silently said sorry in his heart, there is only so much I can give you. It turned out that this Mei Xiuqing was the child reported by Mei Lao from elsewhere in order to hide people's eyes, and the family had already been sent abroad by Mei Lao, and an international wanted criminal standard was installed, and he was not allowed to return to China for the rest of his life.

"Master, isn't it a little inappropriate for you to spoil her so much, after all, a Rafa costs more than 20 million. You can't afford to buy it yourself. "The only one who dares to talk to Mei Lao like this is the old servant Jiang Da, who grew up with Mei Lao since he was a child, as the master's only confidant, Jiang Da is the only one who knows all the secrets of the master, so he has this question.

"Ah Da, you also know that I was sorry for others back then, so over the years, I gave her whatever she wanted. Those rumors outside that I want to rely on her to marry the Lan family again to ensure the status of my Mei family, it is a joke. How did my old Mei ever do something to bow her head to others. Mei Lao took a sip of water and said to Jiang Da slowly.

Jiang Da is forty in his seventies this year, but he looks younger than a sixty-year-old person. Since childhood, we have received various trainings, which naturally include the essence of our tradition, the national arts. Therefore, Jiang Da has always been in a good mental state, and thanks to Jiang Da, Mei Lao has been able to hold on until now.

"So, sir, you have been letting her be a carefree little princess, just to give her a comfortable environment, but haven't you considered cultivating her and letting her share your worries?" Jiang Da looked at the old man who was getting thinner and thinner, who would have thought that this old man would support a huge family through ups and downs. Jiang Da, as Mei Lao's confidant, naturally knew one thing that Mei Lao had been looking forward to, but after so many years, there was no news at all.

"The inheritance of my Mei family will not be broken, and I will not fall down until my grandson returns, let alone let an outsider take charge of my Mei family's affairs. What if my grandson comes back and someone takes over the magpie's nest. So I won't fall, and I can't fall!" Mei Lao said these words, although he was still weak, but his tone was extremely tough.

Speaking of both ends, Amei went to an intermediary office after leaving the station, and found a good single apartment, twelve square meters, small is a little small, but it is better to have a separate bathroom, the most important thing is a rent of three hundred a month, Amei feels very satisfied.

In this way, after Amei finished the daily necessities and cleaned the room again, she sat on the bed with the window open. The house is on the fifth floor, not very high, and Amei is used to leaving the window open when she thinks about problems.

First of all, find a job in Longteng, which is not a lot of time to do, otherwise I won't be able to last long with this little money. But how do you find the family surnamed Mei that Wang Daxia said, and if it is really your own home, why did you abandon him back then, and how should you face them.

In this way, Amei thought about many questions, and late at night, Amei was also a little sleepy, took a shower, and did not eat dinner, so she fell asleep.

On the second day after coming to Longteng City, Amei began to look for a job, and Amei had already found a job, preferably a restaurant waiter, delivering takeaways, this kind of work with a fixed rest time. After all, for the current Amei, finding a job is just to be able to cope with daily expenses, as for the future, let's talk about it later, since childhood, Chen Laohan has depended on each other, and the people in the village help each other, Amei who lives under this condition is an optimist, and will not be troubled by money, after all, for teenagers, as long as they can have a bite to eat, it is enough to have a shelter from the wind and rain.

Amei started the first thing he did when he arrived in Longteng - looking for a job.

Looking at the big shopping mall with people coming and going, and the street full of cars, Amei remembered what her friend of the opposite sex, Chen Qian, told him: "The most famous attraction of Longteng is the Yellow Crane Tower, and the most unique place is twelve months a year, and eleven months are in a state of congestion." Ah Mei smiled dumbly, sure enough, as Chen Qian said, she didn't know what she was doing now.

It is said that after Chen Qian was taken away by Uncle Zhang's Chen family, she looked at her father and silently used a coquettish trick, and Father Chen was defeated in the United States for a while. Helplessly, for the youngest daughter of this family, he is also very fond of him. The next day, I let her go out to play.

Ah Mei ran to four restaurants and five intermediary offices in one morning, but none of them found the job he wanted. It's not that he is too demanding, but that a lot of work requires Amei to have a skill, and those easy jobs that Amei wanted, after asking, I knew that it was a six-nine work model, and Amei didn't want to come to Longteng to spend all his time and energy working to make money, but he was very interested in what Chen Qian said about Qinglong Mountain, Yellow Crane Tower, and Wuli Realm.

Amei, who was walking on the road, was a little depressed, watching the red light on the sidewalk turn green, so she followed the flow of people and crossed the road together. And Chen Qian, who was sitting in Uncle Zhang's car and playing with her hair boringly, suddenly saw a familiar figure - Amei.

Chen Qian rolled her eyes, hey, hey, this kid, I won't let you run away again. "Uncle Zhang, I suddenly remembered that I made an appointment with my classmates to go to the library to have a look, and it happened to be near here. You'll put me down later. ”

Uncle Zhang has been a policeman for so many years, can he not know what this little girl thinks, and he has no choice but to let Chen Qian get out of the car with a single order.

Ah Mei looked at the big shopping mall in front of her, thinking that if she couldn't do it, she would try to be a promoter, but Ah Mei, who is relatively indifferent to strangers, seems to be a little difficult for him.

"Amei" Suddenly, the young man heard someone behind him calling him, but when he turned around, he saw that there were people everywhere, and he thought he was hallucinating. So I didn't think much about it, after all, who would know me when I set foot here for the first time in my life.

Ah Mei walked to a restaurant with a very old-fashioned decoration style, looked at the sign in front of the door, and recruited waiters, and the treatment was negotiable. Ah Mei took a look and walked in, and asked the cashier lady at the front desk: "Hello, do you still accept waiters here?"

The cashier lady looked at the average-looking young man in front of her with a disgusted expression: "If you don't accept it, don't accept it, go ask elsewhere,"

Although Amei felt a little pity, he didn't have any other emotions, after all, he had met a lot of such people, which made Amei miss the simple villagers in Anxi Village even more.

Amei walked aimlessly in the mall, still thinking about how to find a job, when suddenly someone patted her on the back, Amei turned around with some vigilance: "It's you." ”
