Chapter 36: The Father's Secret

Today happened to be the weekend, and Tang Qing sat on the small chair at home, gently playing Mozart's famous piano concerto.

The beautiful melody of the coveted piano finally sounded in her hand, which should have been the most comfortable and happy time, but she seemed to be a little absent-minded today, and sometimes paused thoughtfully.

Tang Dongzhou, who had just entered the door, soon discovered this, and for this beautiful daughter who was like a sweetheart baby, even if the wind was blowing, he could detect it for the first time.

However, he didn't speak in a hurry, but sat on the sofa in the living room and listened quietly for a long time, and finally said softly: "Qing'er, if you're tired, just rest for a while." ”

Tang Qing shook his head silently, but the music stopped.

"Something on your mind?" Tang Dongzhou asked, he picked up a jar of black tea and shook it gently, this is a tea drinking habit he has developed for many years, even if it is shaken like this, it may not be able to produce any effect.

The nanny at home naturally has an accurate grasp of Tang Dongzhou's off-duty time, not to mention that this leader seems to be very punctual when he gets off work, so the temperature of this black tea is always just right, and the shade is very satisfactory to him. In such a family, the nanny may also be a competent life secretary.

The style of the Tang family is a very traditional layout, all the furniture is a classic dark brown, which looks heavy and simple, friends who know a little about decoration should know that mahogany furniture has always been chosen by wealthy people, and dark color is the first choice for older leaders, because sometimes the living room may also be used as another office location.

His house is a three-story villa, the total area is about 1000 square meters, don't be scared, in fact, the price is not expensive, this is the suburbs, the land price is quite cheap, not to mention that this building is actually built by the factory itself, only the cost is really not worth a few dollars, may not be as good as one-tenth of the value of the furniture in the house.

The older generation likes to buy fixed assets, and always thinks that these things will not disappear, and they look at it with confidence.

The sound of the piano then sounded again, this time in a rather familiar Chinese style, and the soothing melody seemed to have a touch of sadness, but it made people feel rippling.

The music didn't stop, but Tang Qing suddenly said, "Dad, I have something I want to ask you......

Tang Dongzhou said lightly: "Say it." ”

Tang Qing stopped her slender fingers and gently pressed on the black and white keys, she turned her head: "Dad, you say, am I usually very ignorant?"

"Hey, why did you say that all of a sudden?" Tang Dongzhou frowned slightly.

Tang Qing sighed faintly: "I don't go to work, I don't make money, I only think about buying this famous brand and buying that luxury all day long, I can't look down on ordinary things, I don't know how to save at all, and I never thought that it ......was not easy for my father to make money."

Tang Dongzhou's eyes turned red for no reason, but he was not an ordinary person, and it naturally took a lot of ability to get to this position, so he was just moved.

Then he chuckled and said: "Qing'er, don't think nonsense, you said that Dad is so old, what is the purpose of making money, isn't it so that you can live a better life? Tang Dongzhou took a sip of tea, "As for spending money, even if it should be spent, just don't waste it, money is this thing, you don't object to using it however you want." Girls want to be rich, and I think your expenses are reasonable now. ”

Tang Qing said innocently: "Dad, if I say that I will never spend your money in the future, do you agree?"

Tang Dongzhou was stunned for a moment, and said strangely: "If you don't spend my money, then how can you live?"

"I'm working hard, and I'm not without pay. Tang Qing pursed his lips unhappily.

Tang Dongzhou couldn't help laughing: "Just the two small money you earn, can it also be called salary? Besides, that little money is probably not enough for you to have a meal......

Tang Qing didn't laugh, but looked like she was about to cry: "I can save it, I can't just eat one steamed bun per meal, it's all right......" She thought for a while, "At most, if you buy a bag of pickles, you won't starve to death." ”

Tang Dongzhou's face gradually became solemn, and he faintly felt that things were not so simple. But he didn't speak for a while, just poured several sips of black tea, and he needed to think for a moment.

"Qing'er, did anyone tell you something?" he hit the nail on the head, how could his daughter's little thoughts be hidden from him, plus so many things have happened to Bu Enyou recently, and some people have even tried to investigate themselves, how can Tang Dongzhou not be aware of it?

Tang Qing was a little flustered, she had never seen her father so serious at home: "No...... No one. She shrank her head and started playing the piano again, but she was clearly at a loss, and she misplayed several notes in a row.

Tang Dongzhou didn't ask, his heart was already like a mirror, where could his daughter hide things.

The room was a little too quiet, so the scene was a little awkward.

Tang Dongzhou coughed lightly, and seemed to say to himself: "Your mother died early, and after so many years, we are left with our grandfather to rely on each other, and of course my father doesn't want you to suffer any grievances." …… As for those who are in the two worlds, just listen to it, and don't believe it. ”

Tang Qing didn't turn back, but his nose was slightly sour, and then nodded slightly.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

About the time of another piano piece passed, Tang Dongzhou was about to get up and go out.

Tang Qing said suddenly: "Dad, I have one more thing, I want to say it today, otherwise it will be very uncomfortable." ”

"I'll talk about it tomorrow, I want to go out for a walk...... Hey, are you going? Why don't you go for a walk with your father? Tang Dongzhou suddenly remembered that it seemed that he hadn't stayed with his daughter for a long time, so he couldn't go out to eat together today, so he mentioned this to his daughter.

Tang Qing thought for a while and agreed: "Okay." ”

So Tang Dongzhou shouted into the kitchen and told the nanny that he didn't have to cook today, and the father and daughter went out to eat a little casually, and the nanny was not surprised.

The two quickly changed into casual clothes and walked out of the yard together.

Today's weather is very good, the moon is bright and the stars are thin, the cool breeze is blowing, and the mood of the father and daughter is instantly much more relaxed. They walked along the small cement road, unhurriedly, Tang Qing usually likes to exercise, and this will make a little sweat The desire to speak came, but Tang Dongzhou walked in front of him in a muffled voice.

Tang Qing caught up and chuckled: "Dad, don't go so fast, I can't catch up." ”

Tang Dongzhou gently scratched her delicate little nose and said with a smile: "You think I don't know, you are letting me, how can I get past you...... Say whatever you want, don't hide it. ”

Tang Qing said coquettishly: "Dad, you are the smartest." ”

"The smartest person in the world is my Qing'er. Okay, let's say, what do you want this time?" Tang Dongzhou said.

Tang Qing was a little unhappy and said: "As I said just now, I don't want anything in the future, I want to save money." Don't you believe it? I'm not joking...... Start today. There was a bit of determination in her eyes.

"I believe it, can't I believe it? Qing'er is a good boy and has begun to learn to be diligent and thrifty like the older generation of revolutionaries, which is a good thing. Isn't that right?" Tang Dongzhou was a little crying and laughing.

Tang Qing rolled his eyes slightly, and suddenly said: "Dad, in fact, there is something I really don't understand, you said, my mother has passed away for so many years, and I have almost no impression in my mind, so you didn't think about finding a stepmother for me?"

Tang Dongzhou feigned anger and said: "What nonsense? I have a baby daughter like you, and I will be satisfied in this life, what if I find another one, it will not be good for you? What are you thinking about all day long......?"

Tang Qing squeezed his eyes mischievously, and said narrowly: "Then I don't believe it, I will marry someone in the future, and it is impossible to accompany you for a lifetime." Dad, tell me honestly, who is that sister you saw the day before yesterday?"

Tang Dongzhou was really stunned: "What sister?"

"It's the sister in red, I already knew, and it's not the first time you've met. I declare, I don't have any opinion anyway, you don't have to hide it from me. Tang Qing chuckled, "Anyway, our family is so big, it's more lively with one more person, right?" ”

Tang Dongzhou was a little flustered, how could this little ghost find out about this matter.

"That's not a sister, it's a colleague of my father. You think too much, she is in charge of marketing in our factory, and she is just for work, and we must meet often. …… Besides, she's still so young, how could Dad have such an idea?"

He was afraid that Tang Qing would ask about this matter again, and added: "Dad, he only has your mother and you in his heart in his life, so don't think about it in the future." ”

Tang Qing stuck out her tongue and didn't dare to speak again, and she also regretted saying it a little.

So she changed the subject and said, "Why are Director Xu and Director Hou often present? They are also so interested in the operation of the factory...... "She still couldn't hide these words.

Tang Dongzhou sighed sincerely this time: "Without them, Dad's work would not be carried out at all, so I always have to drink with them and play mahjong or something." Sometimes, you have to deliberately lose some money to them, and that's how society is...... Dad also had to do it as a last resort. ”

Tang Qing nodded as if he didn't understand.

Tang Dongzhou smiled: "Okay, you are a girl's family for these things, don't ask so much...... It's good if you just know what Daddy is up to. As for the work matter, Dad can still do it now, you can relax and live your little life, and Dad feels comforted when he is happy every day, understand?"

Tang Qing still said worriedly: "I'm still a little worried, you say, you mix with these people all day long, will they harm you?"

"Silly boy, who is your father, do they still have the ability to harm me? I'm just giving them some sweetness so that they can obediently listen to their father......" Tang Dongzhou laughed.

Tang Qing was still a little anxious, and she was about to speak again-

Tang Dongzhou said impatiently: "What will you eat in a while? I'm hungry." ”

Tang Qing said lightly: "I don't care, I eat very little at night." ”

Tang Dongzhou thought for a while and said, "Okay, I originally wanted to come out and eat something fresh, but now it seems that I want to go back and eat your Aunt Wang's homely meal." "Of course, Aunt Wang is talking about the nanny at home.

Tang Qing saw that the persuasion was fruitless, so he had to nod sullenly.

For a young girl like Tang Qing, to understand the thoughts of her father's generation, she is really more than capable of doing so, and if she is not careful, she will be ridiculed for not growing up;

--------------------------------------------------------------------

A few days later.

In a relatively upscale café on Cowsh Street, a rather bizarre incident occurred.

This not-so-large café is supposed to be professionally designed and elegantly furnished, with a variety of decorations that cleverly separate the cafés, but also faintly visible to each other, with a hazy beauty.

The lighting is not too harsh, it is relatively warm and soft.

At first, there were not many customers in the café, only three or five tables. In a relatively remote corner of the café, a woman in red and a woman in white were sitting leisurely chatting and drinking drinks. They seemed to be talking enthusiastically, the woman in white looked sincere, even pleading, the woman in red was a little older than her, and seemed much more stable and mature, for a long time, it was the woman in white who chattered, and the woman in red only calmly replied occasionally.

About half an hour later, the woman in white seemed to be in a bit of a hurry and left her seat to go to the bathroom.

The bathroom was far away, and the woman in red glanced around seemingly casually.

Immediately afterwards, the woman in red quickly moved the cup of the woman in white to herself, and quietly made a small movement, which almost no one would notice, but it completely fell into the eyes of the two women not far away, this is a woman in blue and a woman in pink, but they pretend not to know and do not squint.

It wasn't until the woman in red put the cup back in place that the woman in pink suddenly stood up, and when she staggered past the woman in red, she suddenly slammed a cup of hot coffee on the woman in red!

The woman in red jumped up in shock, she looked at the woman in pink in amazement, she didn't know how this person could be so careless, but she didn't curse, the woman in pink was also strange, not only did not apologize, but even glanced at her with a provocative look, turned her head and left as if nothing happened.

At this time, the woman in red couldn't hold back, she took two quick steps forward to catch up, and stretched out her hand to block the way of the arrogant woman in pink.

The woman in pink glanced at her coldly and said disdainfully, "What are you doing?"

The woman in red did not show weakness, and said angrily, "I want to ask you what you want, don't you think you should apologize to me?" she pulled up the corner of her red coat vigorously, and the expensive dress was stained with tan stains almost from top to bottom.

The woman in pink still disagreed: "Apologize? I never apologize to anyone." If it's dirty, wash it yourself, what's the big deal......"

This kind of contemptuous attitude, I am afraid that anyone will be angry, let alone the contradiction between the two women, the woman in red has a pale face, her eyes are full of fire, and she said angrily: "This is a trivial matter, but if you continue to look at no one like this, I must call the police......" The woman in red was actually quite restrained.

"Then you just call the police, what are you pulling with me here?" The woman in pink was simply rampant, shrugged and pushed away the jade hand that the woman in red was clasping her arm, "But I can tell you, let the police come to my lawyer, I need compensation, just open my mouth, but apologize, it's impossible." …… Auntie, I never apologize to **!"

Hearing this insulting word, the woman in red trembled her hands, and she froze in place for a long time without relieving herself, let alone scolding.

It wasn't until the woman in pink kicked and swaggered out of the coffee shop, and it wasn't until the woman in white returned from the bathroom and looked at her embarrassed "friend" in amazement that the woman in red pretended to smile calmly.

The two sat back in their place, and the woman in red was very helpless, and simply treated the stain with a wet tissue, but she pretended to be open-minded lightly, and comforted the woman in white in turn: "A small accident, you can't blame others, I'll just go back and wash." ”

The woman in white was very simple, and she didn't notice the insincerity of the woman in red at all.

However, after this unpleasant incident, the two of them did not linger any longer, and left the coffee shop after each of them finished their drinks.

Throughout the process, everyone's eyes were attracted by the conflict between the woman in red and the woman in pink, and almost no one noticed that the woman in blue had completed a difficult task extremely covertly.

And the reason why this incident became well-known to everyone later was because these four women were all great beauties that were difficult for Boone You to see.

Isn't Boone a small place where rare things are expensive?

This matter has naturally become another after-dinner conversation, and as for the inside story, no one will delve into it.
