Chapter 43: The Heart of Vanity

The four of them walked around Hong Kong, and it was already the 28th of the lunar month when they returned home after three days of shopping.

Gao Chengkun is still reminiscing about the wonderful taste of the five-star international hotel, but Zhao Daxi has already put away his flashy heart and accompanied Lin Haicao to read a book in the village committee. Zhao Daxi was in a hurry to turn to the latest issue of "Legal Daily", and a commentary article was written by Xu Yan and was reprinted by the latest issue of Legal Daily.

Reporter Xu's pen is still sharp, but this time it is much more rigorous than last time, telling the story of the original story, and the manuscript of more than 5,000 words occupies a large page. The Bai brothers are useless under her pen, and a few big hats will be closed with a button, and it is not enough to be angry if they don't kill.

Although Zhao Daxi was the victorious side, he was still shocked by Xu Da's reporter's sharp writing, and he was reminded of Miss Xu's bright and compelling appearance, how could he not be equated with the author of this article. put down the newspaper and rummaged through the backpack, still planning to give Xu Yan a laptop bought from Hong Kong for personal favors.

In this era, laptops are all imported, which is also a very fresh thing, and Zhao Daxi bought one without holding back for a while. Although I know that it is useless to buy it back, I can only play a stand-alone game, at this time, how can there be a network in Beishan County, even if there is a telephone line that is probably very slow. It's better to give it to Xu Yan if you think about it, Guangzhou's network conditions are of course much better than those in Beishan County.

The next morning, I sent Lin Haicao home for the New Year, sat at Lin's house for a while, and made an appointment to visit on the third day of the Lunar New Year.

The Lin family is quite satisfied with him now, and they also acquiesced to the interaction between him and Lin Haicao, looking through the crack in the door, the Lin family sisters were sitting on the bed and saying some private words, and they didn't know what the Lin family sister said, so Lin Xiaomei couldn't raise her head in shame. Zhao Daxi's heart was rippling, how could he leave now, why should he stay in the Lin family for a while.

Soon it was time for lunch, and when the conversation started at the dinner table, Mother Lin sighed very sadly: "This pony is really, didn't he say that he would come to the house for dinner today, what kind of overnight enmity does the family have?" ”

Zhao Daxi was very knowledgeable and pretended not to know, Lin Haiyan's expression was quite calm: "If you don't come, you won't come, you have to brush an extra pair of dishes and chopsticks." ”

These two people seem to be making a very unpleasant noise, it is estimated that they are getting a divorce, Zhao Daxi despises the surnamed Ma even more, and he has no grace.

After eating, Lin Haicao sent him downstairs, chatting a few words while walking, and then he knew why the Lin family was worried. To say that Mr. Ma still has some skills at home, the eldest sister of the Lin family worked in the kindergarten of the institution, and the Ma family helped to find it. Now that the Ma family is divorced, Lin Haiyan's job is probably about to be lost.

Zhao Daxi inevitably comforted her a few words, which were remembered in his eyes and in his heart. Drove to the street to look at the watch, it was still early in the afternoon, got out of the car to find a phone booth to call Xu Yan, he was by no means a person who did not report his kindness, Xu reporter helped him a few times one after another, saying that it should be.

Xu Yan answered the phone, as if she was still angry: "Why are you still calling me?" ”

Zhao Daxi still understands the thoughts of this kind of wayward girl, and coaxes her with words: "I'm still angry, my heart is so small, I bought a gift and want to give it to you." ”

Xu Yan is really much more cheerful: "You are careful, I am very rare of your gifts?" ”

Zhao Daxi had the heart to coax her to be happy, and as soon as he said a few half-hard and half-soft words, he coaxed Reporter Xu into laughter.

It's just that after all, it's the young lady of the official family, although her anger has disappeared, she still has the intention to make things difficult: "I'm in the dormitory of the unit now, I'm going home for dinner in ten minutes, and you want to give a gift to my house in person, that's all!" ”

Zhao Daxi put down the phone and smiled bitterly, this is really difficult, let her send it to her house without even giving an address, it is capricious enough. Xu Yan's temperament is closer to that of a modern girl, she likes to play a little temperament, Zhao Daxi has long been surprised, she has seen more than her willful girls, at least Xu Yan has her willful capital.

Of course, this little thing is not difficult for Zhao Daxi, he easily drove to the newspaper office, knocked on the door of the room next to Xu Yan's dormitory, he came a few times and knew that most of the residents here were colleagues who worked in the newspaper, so he asked a girl who was a little familiar.

The girl looked at him with a smile: "You want to know the address of Xu Yan's house, what good do I have?" ”

Zhao Daxi was informed and knowledgeable, and gave away the fashion women's watch that he bought from Hong Kong for 500 yuan, and the girl easily sold her sister. Zhao Daxi was funny in his heart and went to Xu's house according to the address she gave, and he was still a little nervous on the way, thinking about what to say when he saw Vice Mayor Xu. When I arrived outside the door of the Xu family, I felt a little surprised, and the Xu family only lived in three bedrooms and two living rooms, which was a little different from what I imagined. Immediately, in this era, it is quite good for the deputy mayor to live in three bedrooms and two living rooms.

Cheered up and knocked on the door of the Xu family, the door opened to reveal Xu Yan's cold little face, she saw Zhao Daxi's big black face and felt obviously relieved, so she silently opened the door. Zhao Daxi was still a little worried after entering the door, looking left and right at the house empty, there was no one, and he was surprised Vice Mayor Xu, don't you have a holiday during the New Year.

Xu Yan was still a little cold: "Don't look at it, my parents are not here...... Well, when it comes to the New Year, there are too many gifts, and they all hide at their friends' houses. ”

Zhao Daxi's heart was slightly shocked, and he had a little more good impression of Vice Mayor Xu, and everyone who hid from the gifts went to a friend's house, which was a big joke in the officialdom ten years later. In this era, there are still some officials who do personnel, but after ten years, they will be very rare.

Entering the door of the Xu family, Zhao Daxi felt a lot more relaxed, and presented the imported IBm notebook with bright packaging with both hands, even if Xu Yan, a girl from a rich family, had never seen such a fashionable thing. This is a mature product recently launched by IBm, and the price is expensive, and the whole Asian region can buy it in Hong Kong and South Korea or a limited edition, and the Guangzhou area is definitely not.

Xu Yan saw it at once, and quickly became happy: "Ah, thank you, such a beautiful laptop." ”

No one knows better than Zhao Daxi how to make this Miss Xu happy, that is, to win her in taste. Generally rude or fake-looking men are easy to be played around by this pampered eldest lady. Shengsheng was fascinated by her, but he felt that he didn't know where to start.

Xu Yan couldn't put it down and fiddled with the notebook, and the resentment in that little belly had long since disappeared.

Zhao Daxi was also happy in his heart, and asked her softly, "Do you like it?" ”

Xu Yan nodded heavily and agreed obediently: "I like it very much, now I can finally drop the fountain pen, and I am tired of writing every day." ”

Zhao Daxi was worried that she wouldn't need a computer, but she typed fast, and she was relieved to know that she was the one who was at the forefront of the times, and he still underestimated her. Looking at the happy expression on Xu Yanmingyan's little face, Zhao Daxi's eyes swept to the wall to the family photo of Vice Mayor Xu, and he felt a little weak-hearted, as if he had hooked up with the little girl in someone's house with a piece of candy.

Patiently staying with her for a while, Xu Yan suddenly raised her head and said: "Daxi, do you want to meet my father, my father should be at Uncle Zuo's house in the south of the city now." ”

Zhao Daxi was startled and hurriedly stopped: "I don't care, but if we go, what will your Uncle Zuo think?" ”

Xu Yan thought about it, and saw that the sky was getting dark outside the window, and she was going to Uncle Zuo's house for dinner, so she had no choice but to let him go.

For Zhao Daxi, although this year is a little dull, it is still wonderful. He and Lin Haicao are really unknown, and it is not good to spend the New Year in someone's house. On the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, I lay on the bed of the village committee and flipped through the books, but I couldn't read anything. After a little silence, he still picked up two bottles of good wine and went to Zhao Yonghai's house in the east of the village to celebrate the New Year.

Zhao Yonghai's family was sitting around for a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and when they saw him coming, they quickly gave him a place, Zhao Yonghai was paralyzed in a wheelchair and skinny, and Zhao Daxi couldn't bear to look more. The heart said that if you had listened to me earlier, and followed me back to Zhaojia Village to do some business, how could you have become such a miserable situation. Of course, he won't stimulate him with words, this is already a half-dead person, Zhao Daxi asked himself if he fell into this step of the field by himself, he would definitely find a rope and break it by himself.

Before leaving, he still relented, and mentioned: "Let Yonghai go to work in the factory tomorrow, and it is better to take care of the warehouse than to be idle at home." ”

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the weather was sunny.

Zhao Daxi was very bored, so he drove to Dongguan City to find out for the next year's entry into the Dongguan market. Dongguan City is a relatively good place, and the shopping mall is much more formal than the small place, although it is the first day of the Lunar New Year, it is still open as usual, and the New Year's flavor is lighter than that of the small place in Beishan County.
