Chapter 216: Mystery
When Liu Xin was training employees, Zhuang Chuchu was also one of them, she was already quite charming, and after some conditioning, she was more feminine in her ability. Standing in Cheng Zhichao's point of view, the lower part of the slightly thin back has an amazingly round buttocks. When I walked, my hips rippled, and I looked shocking.
After Cheng Zhichao glanced at it a few times, the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, and after coughing twice, he hurriedly turned his gaze away and looked at the decoration of the store instead.
It can be seen that Liu Xin has put a lot of effort into this store, and the entire decoration style adopts the European style, although the overall look is relatively high-end, but Cheng Zhichao can't see anything special, but the details have attracted his attention. Walking from the first floor to the third floor, Cheng Zhichao suddenly found that the whole decoration was completely won by details, from the placement of a decorative object to the selection of staircase handrails, all of which were original. All these details come together to form a unique style.
Compared with the magnificence of the first and second floors, since the third floor is an office area, the decoration looks much simpler, and before Cheng Zhichao can adjust from the visual contrast, Zhuang Chuchu has already led him to the outside of a room, stretched out his hand and gently knocked on the door a few times.
Cheng Zhichao raised his head and couldn't help but smile when he saw the three-word "General Manager" sign hanging on the door. Then, I only heard Liu Xin shouting in the house: "Please come in." ”
Zhuang Chuchu stretched out his hand and pushed the door open, but he didn't go in, just nodded at Cheng Zhichao, turned around and walked downstairs again. From beginning to end, he didn't say a word of nonsense, which made Cheng Zhichao praise twice: This kind of talent is a professional woman in the new era, who speaks and does things, and never drags mud and water.
stepped into the house, only to find that compared with this village foreman, the two bosses were not so capable. Inside the room is a huge desk, which takes up almost a fifth of the entire office space. In other spaces, there are a few strange-looking green plants that look like corn, and a long, large leather sofa is placed on the side of the desk, and the two CEOs are sitting on the sofa and the other in front of the sofa, with their hands on the shoulders of the sitting one, who looks as if they are massaging others.
When Liu Xin and Fang Xiaochen heard the knock on the door, they thought it was Zhuang Chuchu, turned their heads to look, but they didn't expect it to be Cheng Zhichao. Liu Xin didn't show too much, just smiled, took his hand off Fang Xiaochen's shoulder, and said hello: "Came so early?" ”
Fang Xiaochen cheered, jumped up from the sofa, jumped in front of Cheng Zhichao, first came to a bear hug, then took his hand and looked at his clothes, with a smile on his face: "Yo, dress up?" ”
"Originally, he was so handsome without dressing up, but our dad is about to arrive, so I have to leave a good impression on his old man, so I dressed up a little, how about it? Is that okay? ”
"It's okay, count you as having a heart." Fang Xiaochen wrinkled his nose, very satisfied with Cheng Zhichao's appearance today, took his hand and sat down on the sofa: "You take a rest first, and I'll show you something later." ”
"What's that?"
Fang Xiaochen and Liu Xin looked at each other and smiled, but did not speak. Fang Xiaochen walked to Liu Xin's desk, reached out and took out a small paper scroll from the drawer, and mysteriously held it to Cheng Zhichao: "What do you guess this is?" ”
"At first glance, it's calligraphy and painting, open it and see what is written."
Fang Xiaochen grinned and said, "I'm asking you to guess who sent it." ”
"You have such a way, you can open such a large-scale store, where can I guess?" Cheng Zhichao stretched out his hand and took the paper shaft, and while opening it, he asked: "I took a look just now, the scale of your store is really not small, opening this store, the investment is quite considerable, right?" ”
"It's okay, even the decoration with staff training, plus the relationship between up and down, the total cost is less than 3 million, which is one-fifth less than expected."
Cheng Zhi was taken aback: "Three...... Million? ”
"What's wrong? Millions will make you look like you're going to eat people? ”
"My God, don't say millions, even if it's hundreds of thousands, I can't get it, you're good, millions of dollars went out to open such a store, and it's still a casual tone, it's really more people than people have to die, and goods have to be thrown away." ,
Fang Xiaochen sighed: "Who made Uncle Sun feel sorry for his daughter, Uncle Sun was relatively early, and most of the money he tossed over the years was thrown here." Plus, I got some more from my dad, and I was finally able to get over the boss. ”
Cheng Zhichao wiped the cold sweat on his head: "Don't say it, Uncle Sun is still quite powerful." ”
Liu Xin said twice: "No matter how powerful you are, you don't have the strength of your father-in-law." Of the three million, your wife took one-third from your father-in-law, and the money was in place the next day. My two million, but it took a month to get it. ”
"One month in place is enough to shock me, and if we change our old man, it may not be in place in a year."
"You old man has the advantage of your old man, not the same." Liu Xin shook his head and said, while motioning with his eyes to Cheng Zhichao to open the calligraphy and painting quickly.
Cheng Zhichao smiled bitterly twice and unfolded the calligraphy and painting. The so-called calligraphy and painting, in fact, is to write a few words on a piece of rice paper, he is a layman in calligraphy, no matter how famous calligraphers write the words, he can not see the doorway, can only see the excitement.
After opening, carefully look at it, three feet long, one foot four inches wide on a piece of good rice paper, the dragon flying and the phoenix dance on the dragon flying phoenix dance on the writing "The flowers and leaves in the world are not compatible, and the flowers are in the golden pot and the leaves are dust" 14 big characters. The font is cursive, good or bad, Cheng Zhichao's eyes are black, he can't see it at all, and he can't help touching his nose: "Where did you get such a calligraphy and painting?" ”
"Look at the payment."
Cheng Zhichao glanced at the inscription behind the calligraphy and painting, and when he saw the name of the inscription, he couldn't help but feel shocked: "I seem to have heard of this person somewhere." ”
Liu Xin was angry and funny: "You are a person, when you are shrewd, you are more shrewd than anyone else, and when you are confused, you are more confused than anyone else." This person has lived in the same courtyard as you for several years, and you seem to have heard of it somewhere. ”
"Ahh After being reminded by her, Cheng Zhichao finally remembered that the person who signed the payment had indeed lived in the same courtyard with him for several years, but when Cheng Zhichao was a child, when Cheng Zhichao was in junior high school, the person who wrote had already retired, moved out of the family home, and lived elsewhere. In my impression, this old cadre has no other hobbies, but loves to write calligraphy, and it is said that he has been famous for his good writing during the war years, but he writes official calligraphy. After middle age, switch to cursive. Over the past few decades, his skills are really profound, and it is said that he was a well-known military calligrapher in the whole army before his retirement, and he came to ask for words all day long.
It's just that this old man's health has not been very good, and his condition has deteriorated in his old age, although there are many people who ask for words, there are very few people who get what they want, Cheng Zhichao has a calligraphy and painting of this old gentleman at home, I didn't expect Fang Xiaochen and Liu Xin to have the ability to get one, it seems that people are really unseemly.
Liu Xin looked at him with a look of sudden realization, and laughed: "Remembered? ”
"Well, I remembered. This old man's words are not very easy to get, you two are really capable, you can get one, it seems that this pen is definitely not less. ”
"How can we have this ability, the words were given by others." Liu Xin covered her cherry lips and laughed: "If you are smart enough, you should be able to guess who sent it." ”
Cheng Zhichao frowned: "If you can ask for the old man's words, it must be someone from our hospital, in the past few years, I have never heard of people outside our hospital who can ask for his words." The people from our hospital know you again, is it Zheng Huaizhu? ”
Fang Xiaochen shook his head: "Wrong." ”
"Then I can't guess."
"Stupid. Apart from Zheng Huaizhu, who else in your courtyard knows us? ”
"Except for him, it's our family of three." When Cheng Zhichao said this, he suddenly opened his mouth wide, "Could it be ...... Don't...... Is it our old man? ”
"Cut." Fang Xiaochen pouted: "Your old man is studying in Beijing now, how can he have time to come back and send this thing?" Sue you, this thing was personally sent by our mother after she called us yesterday to find out where the two of us lived. ”
"Huh? No way? Cheng Zhichao was so excited that his hands trembled, he almost threw the calligraphy and painting to the ground, hurriedly took a deep breath, rolled the thing into a scroll, and solemnly handed it to Liu Xin: "I always thought that my mother had a prejudice against Xiaochen, the daughter-in-law, but I didn't expect this old lady to give such a big gift behind my back. Strange, how could she suddenly remember to give you a gift? ”,
"It didn't come out of nowhere." Fang Xiaochen sat on the sofa, stretched out his little hand, gently pounded it on his leg, and said: "These days, her old man has called me several times, and she knows that Liu Xin's store and I are about to open. I gave us this one thing last night, and let's find a place to frame it and hang it on the wall another day. ”
"How many times have you called guò? How did I not know? ”
"I talk to her on the phone, what does it have to do with you? Why do you have to know? Women's business, what are you a big man mixed with? ”
"Yes, yes, yes." Cheng Zhichao was so surprised by the surprise of this calligraphy and painting sent by Shan Weiqing that he scratched his ears and cheeks, and even claimed that it was.
Liu Xin sighed on the side: "Look at your little talent, a calligraphy and painting will make you look like a bear, and you have no interest." You haven't seen it yet, have you? The calligraphy and painting that your mother gave you has a deep meaning, and it is not as simple as giving a gift. ”
Cheng Zhichao asked blankly: "What is the deep meaning?" ”
Liu Xin was helpless by him for a while, so he had to sigh again and explain: "The flowers and leaves in the world are not compatible, and the flowers are dusty in the golden pots. These are two sentences from an ancient poem, looking at your appearance, you must be unfamiliar with this ancient poem? ”
Cheng Zhichao blushed: "I am a science and engineering student, not a liberal arts student, so I am not interested in this thing by nature." ”
"That's right, you're in science and engineering, and it's a very good excuse to hide that you're uneducated." Liu Xin sneered, didn't wait for Cheng Zhichao to speak, and continued: "This poem was written by Li Shangyin, and the meaning of this sentence originally expressed that the world loves flowers and moves them to gold pots to plant, but they don't love green leaves, so they are abandoned. It's obvious that it's pointed. ”
Cheng Zhichao said "oh", he didn't speak, he wasn't stupid, as soon as Liu Xin said this, he knew what Shan Weiqing meant. In the final analysis, Shan Weiqing is still obsessed with the identity of the other party's Yue Yuan, and this calligraphy and painting can also be understood as Shan Weiqing had no choice but to admit the relationship between him and Fang Xiaochen in a helpless situation, but as a mother-in-law, what should be done is still to do, and use the difference between lotus flowers, green leaves, golden pots, and dust to exhort Fang Xiaochen to be good as flowing.
Liu Xin glanced at him and said, "Of course, I guess there are two other meanings here, but they are just guesses, I don't know if your aunt means this." ”
Cheng Zhichao was stunned: "What else does it mean?" ”
"Hmm." Liu Xinyan smiled: "You seem to have understood the meaning just now, so let's talk about the other two meanings we guessed." I guess your aunt actually likes Xiaochen very much in her heart, and specially used this calligraphy and painting to praise her for getting out of the mud without staining, which is one of the meanings. Another meaning, to understand it, you have to turn a corner, that is, although the lotus is different from the lotus, it is almost the same. Among the lotus flowers, there is a kind of one called Di Lian, what does that kind of flower represent, everyone knows very well, her old man hopes that Xiaochen will come out of the sludge without staining, and you husband and wife will grow old and marry forever. After finishing speaking, he stared at Cheng Zhichao and Fang Xiaochen embarrassedly, and laughed.
Fang Xiaochen's face flushed and glared at Liu Xin, but there was infinite joy in his eyes. After Cheng Zhichao listened to her words, he was dumbfounded, no matter what, he didn't expect that the gift given by Shan Weiqing would contain such a large amount of information, both the expectations of the other party Xiaochen and the two of them, it seems that Shan Weiqing has put a lot of effort into the two of them.
Cheng Zhichao touched his nose, came to Fang Xiaochen's side, and whispered: "My dear, you two are so cultured, my mother's mind is clear to you, if you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for." ”
Fang Xiaochen was overjoyed in his heart, but he glanced at him and said angrily: "Don't pat the sycophants there, Liu Xin saved face for you just now, so he didn't say everything." Hmph, yesterday our mother complained about you at our house. To be honest, have you never been home since the beginning of school? Her old man personally sent calligraphy and paintings, the main meaning is that she still misses her son, and wants to exchange the spring breeze for some autumn rain, so that you can take some time out of your busy schedule and go home to see her old man. ”
Cheng Zhichao couldn't help but "oops", then he remembered that since the start of school, he really hasn't been back home once, when Cheng Zhichao went to school in the past, at least there was a Cheng Weiguo at home to accompany Shan Weiqing, the old lady. But now Cheng Weiguo has also gone to study, so that Shan Weiqing and the civil servant Pony are left at home. Although Xiaoma has been in their house for more than a year, it is not as close as Cheng Zhichao's biological son, no wonder Shan Weiqing will personally come to see his daughter-in-law, it turns out that there is no one at home, and the old lady is a little uncomfortable.
