In fact, Jiang Xuan's worries about Jiang Yao are also superfluous, Jiang Yao is not as brainless as she imagined, she has no scruples in front of her family, and is naturally extra willful, but she still knows how to restrain her temper outside, just like when she was in Junya, although she loves to be coquettish and shirks her work, she will often give some gifts to her colleagues, so she is not too popular, in Taiheng, she also does this, helps everyone pack snacks when eating, and often gives female colleagues some sunscreen, Small things such as lip balm, and the truth of convenience for others and herself, she still understands that the Jiang family has a lot of shopping cards in shopping malls, which can be used at any time, and it will not cost her money.

However, the same trick in Taiheng, obviously did not receive a good effect in Junya, because Jiang Yao offended people who should not be offended, Yu Yaqing, Yu Yaqing is the old man of Green Island Taiheng, she has been working here for seven or eight years, before Zhang Shi, she was the secretary of the general manager, and the secretaries of the following departments deal with her all the year round, and the relationship is very good, All the secretaries know the way, and the whole company knows the way, so now all the people in Green Island Junheng know that there is a delusional sparrow named Jiang Yao at the front desk of the road, trying to use the inaccessible means of pouring coffee to get to the top, these highly educated white-collar elites will naturally not do such a thing as laughing at people in person, but there are definitely not one or two people who secretly watch the jokes, so in the big atmosphere of the whole company, there are really few people who come to Jiang Yao's side for a little favor.

Jiang Yao looked down on Chen Anxiu in his heart, but he had to rely on Chen Anxiu in the company, although there were a lot of ambiguous rumors between Chen Anxiu and the boss, but looking at the frame of sending flowers, he knew that the boss took the initiative, yes, many people already knew that the boss sent it, otherwise under the premise that there were already rumors, who would dare to collect Assistant Chen's flowers openly, that would not be to block the boss, so there were jealous Chen Anxiu in the company, but they could only hate that they were not the building near the water. The attitude towards Chen Anxiu and Jiang Yao is definitely different.

"Brother Chen, are you going to go out?" Jiang Yao still greeted Chen Anxiu as soon as he saw him.

"Yes, go to Junya. Chen Anxiu shook the document in his hand and stopped slightly.

Jiang Yao had a white delicate female watch on her wrist, "It's almost half past eleven, is it too late to eat lunch?"

"No need, I'll come over after dinner at Junya's side. Chen Anxiu shook his head secretly, why didn't this girl give up, "If there is nothing wrong, I will leave first, a little in a hurry." "This kind of thing, he can't be persuaded by a man all the time.

Under the cover of the counter, the signature pen in Jiang Yao's hand swiped hard twice on the registration book, and when she looked up again, her smile was still very sweet, "Brother Chen, do you know that my brother and Sister Mei Zi are about to get married?"

"Is that the date set?"

"Well, it's November, and Brother Chen must drink at that time. Anyway, you've been friends for so many years. ”

Chen Anxiu nodded, and said in a very steady tone, "Okay, I know about this matter." Will go when the time comes. ”

Jiang Yao bit her lip, and when the other girl at the front desk came back from the toilet, she found that the visitor registration book placed at the front desk was almost artificially poked.

Thursday is Tonton's tenth birthday, and it is also the first birthday that Zhang Shinian has spent with his son in ten years, for this reason, he specially asked Joe to vacate the day's itinerary, and asked Tonton in advance how he wanted to spend this birthday, and Tonton said a sentence, "Do you both accompany me?"

Because of his words, Chen Anxiu also asked for leave, and the biggest advantage of living under the same roof with the boss is that you can ask for leave by knocking on the door next door, and you don't have to make phone calls, saving money and effort.

After work on Wednesday, Chen Anxiu went back to the mountain to pick up tons of tons, Chen Tianyu was also at home, and the noodles made by Chen's mother for dinner had two more eggs in tons of bowls.

"Tons and tons are ten years old. You're almost thirty years old. Although Chen Anxiu didn't say it explicitly, where did he live these days, could Chen's mother not count it in her heart?

"Mom, don't add my age to me, my twenty-eighth birthday hasn't passed yet. ”

Zhuang Zhuang is pretending to be confused with understanding, now that Changning is back, she always feels that there are some things that she doesn't want to say much, so she quickly gives him her own dishes, "Let's eat, go down the mountain early after eating, the mountain road is not easy to walk." ”

"Mom. Chen Anxiu was keenly aware of something.

Father Chen took over and said, "Zhuangzhuang, you taste the fish I fried tonight, look at the place where Daohua is fried, I have fried it." It tastes crispy. ”

Chen Anxiu went over with the bowl and said, "Dad, you can eat, I can reach it myself." ”

Chen Tianyu was puzzled by the atmosphere on the table, and asked directly, "Dad, what's going on at home?" He went to other places for more than half a month, why was everyone so strange when he came back? Why are they all so polite as a family, a table is so big, what to eat by yourself, when did there be a rule of serving each other's vegetables at home?

Chen's father said, "If something happens, don't follow and make trouble, is it going well on the way to Inner Mongolia this time?"

"It's okay, it's just too hot, tons, is the beef strip I brought you delicious?"

Tons rubbed his face and said very seriously, "It's delicious, but my face is very sour." ”

Everyone else at the table laughed, Chen Tianyu patted the back of his head lightly, and said with a smile, "There are not many people, but there are quite a lot of things." ”

"Mom, I'm not going down the mountain tonight, stay for one night, and leave tomorrow morning. Chen Anxiu said.

The relationship between the uncle and nephew has always been good, after dinner, Chen Tianyu led tons to play cards at other people's houses, Chen's father was called to drink tea, and only Chen Anxiu and Chen's mother were left at home.

Chen Anxiu hurriedly cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, washed them out and put them in the kitchen cupboard, Chen's mother washed two black-skinned large melons and put them on the table, and when she saw Chen Anxiu coming, she broke half of them and gave them to him, and the whole melon in Chen Anxiu's half was buckled inside.

Only the yellow gourd is the sweetest, there is no taste elsewhere, the whole skin is noodle, Chen Anxiu has only loved to eat the gourd since he was a child, and he can suck the gourd clean after a few bites.

Chen's mother took out a tissue for him, "Wipe your mouth quickly, such a big person, how can you still eat like a child, eat all over your mouth, and it's like this outside, it's a joke." ”

Chen Anxiu wiped his mouth and sat down beside his mother.

Chen's mother took the remote control board to change the channel, looked at him and said, "Why are you so close, it's hot." ”

Chen Anxiu leaned closer and said, "Mom, do you know the truth?"

Chen's mother stared at the TV screen and said, "I don't know anything." She actually had a hunch, Zhuang Zhuang left the small restaurant for no reason and went down the mountain to work, Changning was obviously very wrong during that time, but she didn't dare to think about it, and she felt uncomfortable when she thought about it. Zhuang Zhuang was born in Changning, it is a good thing that they can recognize each other, but Zhuang Zhuang is also a child raised by them, when I think of the child knowing the truth and their birth, who can stand it in their hearts.

"Mom, I actually know the truth. Chen Anxiu understands very well that this kind of thing, his parents will never know the way, of course, it is the best way, so that they will not be sad, but is this possible? Instead of letting his father notice that he and his brother-in-law secretly recognize each other is more uncomfortable, it is better to say it quickly, this is the experience he gained from getting along with Zhang Shinian, "I know the relationship between me and my brother-in-law." ”

Chen's mother's body trembled, but the person didn't speak, and the fact that she was worried was confirmed, at this moment, she didn't know what to say, and there seemed to be a wind blowing in her heart.

Chen Anxiu didn't seem to feel it, hugged his mother's shoulder, and said cheekily, "Mom, I don't care, you and my father have raised me for more than 20 years, and you have to be responsible for it in the end." ”

Mother Chen said in a nasal voice after a while, "It's not enough to raise you for so many years, do you plan to rely on us for the rest of your life?"

"Who let you be my parents, I don't rely on you to rely on anyone, anyway, no matter how you drive me, I won't leave, if you have to drive me away, I will carry the bunk to the gate, every day to block the door, not let people in, and not let you out. Let's consume it slowly, if it doesn't work in one day, I'll consume it for a month, if it doesn't work in a month, I'll consume it for a year, and sooner or later it will be consumed until you run out of strength, let me come in. ”

Chen's mother burst out laughing, poked him twice on the forehead and said, "You bear child, you can think of such a thing." ”

"Mom, I'm not afraid, I'm just such a home, if you want to drive me away, I don't know where I'm going. ”

Chen's mother was relieved, and her thinking was clear, so she didn't listen to his pitiful words, "I don't know where Lu Dao is going, go to Zhang Shinian's place, he lives there more comfortably than our family, you can live as long as you want, and I won't stop you." I don't care if I get a child. ”

At the end of the sentence, Chen Anxiu pretended not to hear it, "No matter how good his family is, it's not mine." ”

"I think it should be, no matter how bad his family is, you are willing to live there. ”

After talking about his mother's side, Chen Anxiu went out to pick up his father again, and the father and son talked all the way, and when Chen Anxiu left the next day, the family somewhat returned to the warm atmosphere of the past, and the remaining little discomfort was left to time to run in.

Back down the mountain, the fresh corn and fried mint leaves that Chen Anxiu brought back were put in the refrigerator, and Zhang Shinian asked Ton Ton in the living room, "Ton Ton, where do you want to play?"

Tons of tons looked at Zhang Shinian and then at Chen Anxiu in the kitchen, and said very satisfied, "You can do anything." ”

There are no very large playgrounds in Green Island City, and people usually go to zoos, forest parks and other places with their children, and they have been to it several times, and this weather is not suitable for running outside on a big day.

"Why don't we go to the aquarium to see the beluga whale?" Beluga whale is Tonton's favorite animal that lives in the sea, and Chen Anxiu himself likes it.

Tons clapped their hands in agreement and said, "Okay, Dad, I haven't been to see Moby Dick for a long time, and Moby Dick hasn't kissed me yet." ”

The tickets for the aquarium are not cheap, Chen Anxiu has come twice with tons of tons before, both through his second uncle's little cousin Lin Haishuang's tickets are half price, Ludao City is full of large and small travel agencies, Lin Haishuang's holiday trip is one of the very inconspicuous ones, it is said that the business is not bad, and it is absolutely no problem to raise him alone anyway.

Chen Anxiu wanted to call Lin Haishuang to get a ticket this time, Zhang Shinian said: "Forget it, it takes a lot of time to go back and forth, let's go directly." So Chen Anxiu had no choice but to prepare to buy a full-price ticket in pain.

The aquarium is located on the eastern seaside, the location is relatively remote, but the area is quite large, and you can see the fountain pool in the shape of a large whale as soon as you turn into the main entrance.

This kind of weather is the most comfortable to come to the aquarium, I don't know if there are more polar animals here, the indoor air conditioning is very sufficient. Although he came more than once, Ton Ton still looked very carefully, and everything was lying on the glass to look at it seriously, and when he saw the polar bear, Ton Ton said, "Dad, you said that the polar bear that kept walking around is not fake, it retreats every time it takes three steps forward, and then three steps, and then retreats, and it never goes into the water." I've been here three times and it's always been like this. Did it run out of power as soon as the water went out?"

Because of the large space in the aquarium, Ton Ton unconsciously increased his voice, and when he exited, the visitors next to him all came around, and when they saw that it was so, the discussion became louder and louder.

"Tons, let's go over there and see the walruses. When the staff also heard the news and rushed over, Chen Anxiu confidently pulled the father of the initiator and the initiator and fled quickly. Having a son who is too smart can sometimes be a nuisance.

Ton Ton was especially excited today, not only did his favorite penguins, sea otters, sea lions, beluga whales, sharks, turtles and the like take a group photo, but even the Eskimo hut and cabaret performances that he had never been interested in were very interested in for a long time. Zhang Shinian also bought him several plates of fish, and then hugged him to lie on the seal pond platform and fed the seals for a long time. When he was in the beluga whale pool, Ton Ton was reluctant to leave, pulling the sleeves of the people around him and kept saying, "Look at the beluga whale's eyes are so small, like two small beans, and there is a hole in their heads, Dad, Dad, look at it." ”

Chen Anxiu didn't say anything, a slightly complicated look flashed on Zhang Shinian's face, it had been less than three months since he had known each other, maybe he was too anxious.

"Dad?" As soon as he turned his head, he knew that Lu Dao had caught the wrong person, the sleeve he grabbed was Zhang Shinian, not Chen Anxiu's, he lowered his eyes, slowly let go of his hand, and retreated to Chen Anxiu's side.

At this time, a middle-aged man next to them who was taking pictures of his daughter also accosted Zhang Shinian and said, "Your son is so handsome." ”

Zhang Shinian also responded with a smile, "Your little girl is also very cute." ”

This little episode happened, and Tonton's mood was obviously affected, and when he passed through the undersea passage, he passed without even watching the mermaid show. While Chen Anxiu went to the toilet, Zhang Shinian squatted down and hugged him and said, "It's okay, tonton, I'm not unhappy." ”

Tons whispered in his ear, "Are you really not angry?"

Zhang Shinian touched his hair and said, "I'm not angry." ”

After a morning in the aquarium, the most exciting and the most exciting is of course the animal show, the three of them ran faster, occupied the front row, and sat between the two, holding a large bucket of popcorn, Zhang Shinian and Chen Anxiu actually have no interest in this sweet and greasy food, but they can't bear to take care of their son, feed one here, feed one there, the two look at each other, and have to swallow hard.

During the interaction with the beluga whale, although Ton Ton had raised his hand very high, another child of the same age as him ran up directly, and the host could only agree to come down, after the interaction, the beluga whale emerged from the water, and kissed the child with a wet mouth.

Ton Ton was a little disappointed, but not very upset, although he is not the kind of lively and outgoing child, but he will not be stingy.

On the way back, Zhang Shinian said to him, "I'll take you to Ocean Park in Hong Kong another day, and you can also go to Disney to see Mickey Mouse." ”

Tons of tons heard these and had a spirit, "Is there a beluga whale there?"

"There's beluga whales, and there's giant pandas. ”

Ton Ton's eyes widened, and he asked in surprise, "There are giant pandas in Ocean Park, but I haven't seen real giant pandas yet." Do they live in the water at Ocean Park? Do they swim every day?"

Lunch for a family of three in Junya, Zhang Shinian ordered a birthday cake in advance for Western food here, after eating, when Chen Anxiu went to pick up the birthday cake, he saw Jiang Xuan's mother Fan Lin, followed by a salesperson from the conference hall, thinking of Jiang Yao's words that day, it was not difficult for Chen Anxiu to guess that Jiang Xuan's mother was looking at the wedding banquet venue.

Jiang Xuan's mother has never liked him very much, Chen Anxiu is a good teacher, he later went to a stranger's house to ask if he needed to change his shoes The habit was cultivated by Jiang Xuan's mother, he just went to junior high school, Jiang Xuan's father was still working in the Dongshan District Public Security Bureau, he went to Jiang's house for the first time to play, and wore a pair of sneakers, in fact, it was not dirty, but the floor tiles of his house were all that kind of snow-white, and when he stepped on it, he could still see the shallow shoe prints, Jiang Xuan's mother followed him with a mop, he took a step, Jiang Xuan's mother dragged a step. It was an embarrassing scene. After that, she didn't treat her very well, and she didn't seem to look down on the countrymen, so when he later learned that Meizi and her got along well, he admired Meizi a lot.

Chen Anxiu didn't like her either, but he bumped into her head-on, and there was no way to avoid it, so he took the initiative to say hello. "Aunt Fan. ”

Fan Lin stopped, but was far away from him, "It's Xiao Chen, why are you here?"

"Come over and buy something. ”

"Come here to buy something?" Fan Lin said with a handbag, "Well, but the things here are also very good." Then you buy it, I have something to do and leave first. ”

Tons didn't invite anyone on her birthday this time, and even Aunt Fang gave her a holiday. The three of them went home to take a nap, Zhang Shinian was very self-controlled, he got up after sleeping for less than an hour, reading books in the study, approving documents, and Chen Anxiu held tons and slept until more than three o'clock.

All kinds of vegetables, meat, fish and the like are prepared in advance, Chen Anxiu fried and cooked, made a big table, and put a big birthday cake in the middle, lit ten small candles, and when it came to the wishing link, Ton Ton closed his eyes very solemnly, and opened them after a while.

Chen Anxiu secretly bit his ear with him, "What wish did you make, tell your father." ”

Ton Ton shook his head, "It won't work." ”

Chen Anxiu continued to fool his son and said, "Just say one, it's okay to say one." ”

Tons stared at him with his cheeks up, as if he was examining the truth of his words, and finally gave his father a suspiciously sincere gaze, and whispered in his ear, "I want to call Uncle Zhang Dad." ”

Chen Anxiu rubbed his head and said, "Go ahead, he was originally your father." ”

The voice of the ton shout was very low, Chen Anxiu sat opposite them, and he didn't even hear it, but what shocked him was that he actually saw a trace of moist color in Zhang Shinian's eyes.
