Chapter 167
At noon the next day, Lao Zheng appeared downstairs at Zhao Xiaoxi's house as promised, Zhao Xiaoxi deliberately dressed up today, and she was not in the mood to pick herself up at all due to various things at home recently. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Zhao Gong seems to have had a good rest recently!" Lao Zheng said as he drove.
"Hey...... Rest is more tiring than going to work!" Zhao Xiaoxi sighed helplessly and said, thinking about it, although work is busy, there are not so many sad things, but what has happened recently is not a good thing.
"Oh, what's the matter, tell me about it!" Lao Zheng suddenly asked with a serious expression.
"It's nothing!" Zhao Xiaoxi was generally reluctant to talk to others about his family, and then he realized that the complaint he had just now was not suitable and hurriedly said.
"It's all friends, what's so embarrassing to say. Lao Zheng seemed to have become very gossipy, and the more he looked at Zhao Xiaoxi, the more curious he became.
"It's really nothing!By the way, what do you want to eat?" Zhao Xiaoxi quickly changed the topic and asked.
"Just come with me!Don't worry, I won't let you break too much!" Lao Zheng said with a mysterious smile.
Zhao Xiaoxi didn't seem to know the direction but the car seemed to drive to the city, shuttling through the alleys, these places were unfamiliar to her, Zhao Xiaoxi suddenly remembered that she hadn't even taken a good trip to Beijing, nor did she take her parents to visit Beijing, this ancient and modern city has so unknown culture and scenery to explore, but she is like a frog lying at the bottom of a well, only the small world on her head.
Finally the car stopped next to an alley, two people got out of the car and walked through a small courtyard, to Zhao Xiaoxi's surprise is that there is a hole in this campus, the courtyard is full of tables and chairs and parasols, there are many guests, and the waiter sees the guests warmly greeting.
"It's a Yunnan cuisine, but eating in this kind of courtyard still has a different flavor. Lao Zheng smiled and explained to Zhao Xiaoxi, who was sitting opposite.
"If you really know everything about Beijing, Mr. Zheng can't help but sigh!"
"Hahaha, Zhao Gong is too focused on work, and he should also enjoy life!" Lao Zheng said with a laugh.
"I'm a married woman, and I have to take care of all the children in the family, how dare I slack off!" Zhao Xiaoxi said quietly.
"But who married you as a good wife and mother, it's really blessed!" Lao Zheng couldn't help but admire from the bottom of his heart, which was also the reason why he admired Zhao Xiaoxi.
"If only my husband felt the same way!" Zhao Xiaoxi blurted out without much thought, but as soon as the words came out, he felt that he shouldn't say this to Lao Zheng, and suddenly became embarrassed.
"Come, you can order!" The waiter brought the menu in a timely manner, and Lao Zheng handed over the menu and said to her with a smile.
"It's better for you to order! I won't order......" Zhao Xiaoxi hurriedly smiled and stretched out his hand to refuse.
"That's good!" Lao Zheng flipped through the menu and ordered the food with the waiter, and he was really familiar with it.
After a while, the dishes were served one after another, each dish was very exquisite, which made Zhao Xiaoxi feel a little uneasy, she didn't look at the price of the menu, this environment and the price of this dish must not be cheap!
"Come, Zhao Gong, try this Yunnan Jianshui tofu, these are all ingredients airlifted from Yunnan!" Lao Zheng smiled and pointed to one of the dishes.
"Good ......" Zhao Xiaoxi picked up the chopsticks and took a bite and felt that it was nothing special, she didn't pay much attention to eating her, and eating was just an instinct for her to maintain life.
"It tastes good, right?" Lao Zheng looked at her expressionlessly, narrowed his eyes and asked with a smile.
"Well, it's good!" Zhao Xiaoxi couldn't say anything, so he could only nod and say.
"By the way, when are you going to work? Why don't you consider accepting my suggestion and going to our branch in Beijing, you can rest assured in terms of treatment!" Lao Zheng finally turned to the topic.
"I haven't thought about it yet! It just so happens that my parents are in Beijing, and I plan to accompany them well!" Although Zhao Xiaoxi really wants to work immediately, she can't say that, but it is her sincere words to accompany her parents well.
"Oh, that's not bad, feel free to tell me when you're ready, this job opportunity is always available to you. Lao Zheng said while eating.
"Well, thank you Mr. Zheng!" Zhao Xiaoxi is not only because of his gratitude this time, but also because of Lao Zheng's help.
"Ahem, what's polite, are they all friends!" Lao Zheng is a son and daughter of the rivers and lakes, so he likes to make friends all over the world.
"It's not just about work, it's about all these things, and it's about my friends, I really thank you from the bottom of my heart!" Zhao Xiaoxi said with a serious expression.
"Hahaha, okay! Eat it!" Lao Zheng was amused by her expression, which was also what he admired about Zhao Xiaoxi, and he recognized it as true in everything he did.
Just as the two were chatting, Zhao Xiaoxi's phone rang, it turned out to be his father-in-law calling, he had already rushed to Beijing, and he was rushing to his son's school at this time.
"Hey...... Xiaoxi, I've arrived in Beijing, and I'm on my way to Xiaojie's school. The father-in-law's voice on the other end of the phone seemed to be a little hoarse, and Zhao Xiaoxi could also feel his anxious mood.
"Well, don't worry, I'll go to the injured child's hospital in a while, and I'll look for you when the time comes!" Zhao Xiaoxi whispered on the phone.
"Then I'm sorry for you!" the father-in-law hung up after saying that.
"Is there something wrong?" Lao Zheng asked when he saw that Zhao Xiaoxi answered the phone and his face was not very good.
"Oh, it's okay!" Although he is not too close to Zhao Xiaoxi, after all, it is difficult to tell outsiders about the ugliness of her husband's family.
"If you need help, let me know!"
"It's really fine, thank you!"
"Don't say thank you to me again, make us so different!" Lao Zheng wanted to become closer to Zhao Xiaoxi, but found that she always deliberately kept a distance between the two of them, even if she was a friend, she didn't always have to say thank you.
After eating, Zhao Xiaoxi wanted to go to the checkout, but he didn't expect Lao Zheng to just sign his name on the bill, it turned out that Lao Zheng often brought customers to eat here, so every time he ate, he deducted money from the pre-deposited membership card, and he didn't mean to let Zhao Xiaoxi spend money, he just wanted to have a meal with her.
Lao Zheng originally insisted on sending Zhao Xiaoxi, but because she was going to the hospital to see the injured students, she was always embarrassed to let Lao Zheng send it, so when she left the courtyard, she reached out and stopped a taxi and left, leaving Lao Zheng who was alone next to the car.
However, Zhao Xiaoxi did not choose to take a taxi directly to the hospital, she just took a taxi to the subway station, because the hospital of the injured student was near Lu Chengjie's school.
