After the order meeting, the hotel room arranged by the conference team was returned, and Zhou Jianping and Zhao Xinmei stayed in a hotel three blocks away from the station.

Zhou Jianping has to come to G city once or twice a year, there is not much novelty for him here, Zhao Xinmei is still the first time to come here, Zhou Jianping introduced her to the tourist attractions of G city, she is more interested in several shopping malls here, because the train is the next evening, Zhao Xinmei plans to visit several major shopping malls on the first day, and then go to the tourist attractions in the morning of the next day.

Because he has been here several times, Zhou Jianping is familiar with the city's location and bus stops, whether he goes to shopping malls or tourist attractions, he is naturally Zhao Xinmei's guide.

Like most men, Zhou Jianping is not much interested in shopping malls, every time he goes to the clothing department of a shopping mall, Zhao Xinmei has to stop and watch the selection, especially when he goes to the women's clothing department, he looks very carefully, at this time, Zhou Jianping generally does not follow, but stands in the distance and waits. If Zhao Xinmei chooses a certain style of clothes and needs to try them on, she will send her belongings to Zhou Jianping and ask him to help take care of them.

Around four o'clock in the afternoon, the two had already visited five shopping malls, Zhao Xinmei was in good shape, white skin, tall, short, fat and thin, and it was very easy to buy clothes, and in the first few shopping malls, she bought a set of formal wear and a set of casual clothes.

Entering this mall, Zhou Jianping waited outside the clothing department as usual, Zhao Xinmei didn't care, she went back and forth in the men's clothing department several times, and finally stopped in front of the suit counter, and pointed to a dark gray suit and said to the salesperson: "Please show me that set of clothes." ”

The salesperson took off the costume and put it on the counter, "If you buy a suit, it's best to try it on in person to know if it fits best." The salesman said.

"yes, I know that." As she spoke, Zhao Xinmei beckoned to Zhou Jianping, who was standing in the distance, and motioned for him to come over.

Zhou Jianping thought something had happened, and hurriedly ran over, "What's the matter?" ”

"You give me something, try this outfit." Zhao Xinmei reached out and took what Zhou Jianping was carrying.

"----, I try on clothes?" Zhou Jianping looked at Zhao Xinmei with puzzled eyes.

"Yes, buy you clothes."

"However, in addition to buying a ticket, I'm afraid the money I brought is not enough to buy clothes!" Zhou Jianping whispered in Zhao Xinmei's ear.

"I haven't seen this color in the previous shopping malls, and I think this color suits you perfectly. Try it, see if it fits, I have a plan for money. Zhao Xinmei said.

Zhou Jianping tried it on his body and looked a little bigger, "Is there any one that is one size smaller?" Zhao Xinmei asked the salesman.

The salesman flipped through the inside, "This set is a little smaller, see if it's appropriate?" ”

Zhou Jianping put it on his body again, and the two salesmen said in unison: "This suit fits so well, just like a tailor-made one." And pointed at Zhao Xinmei, "The color you chose for him matches his skin tone very well." ”

"Do you wear it like that, or do you wear it again when you go back?" Zhao Xinmei asked.

"Go back and wear it again, what kind of style do you wear here?" Zhou Jianping took off his clothes.

Zhao Xinmei instructed the salesman: "Okay, you wrap the clothes for me, and then bring the navy blue suit for him to try." ”

"Xinmei, what are you doing here?" Zhou Jianping asked.

"We looked at a few shopping malls, just count the men's clothing here is the most complete, the most colors and styles, those shopping malls in Huaxing City are even worse, since you come, buy an extra set, this kind of clothes will be worn sooner or later, anyway, it can't be wasted." Zhao Xinmei said.

The salesman took out a number of the same size, Zhou Jianping tried it on his body to give people a good feeling, Zhao Xinmei told him, "You go to the mirror to take a look, do you look very comfortable?" ”

"Well, that's good." Zhou Jianping said while looking in the mirror.

"I'll go over there and buy two suitable ties later, and with these two outfits, it should feel better." Zhao Xinmei said.

The salesman packed the two sets of clothes, and after Zhao Xinmei paid, they walked forward again, "Where are you going?" Zhou Jianping asked.

"Go and see if there's any casual wear for you."

Zhou Jianping didn't ask anything anymore, he followed behind Zhao Xinmei, and the two walked around the casual men's wear area for half an hour, and finally Zhao Xinmei asked Zhou Jianping to try a jacket-style gray casual wear with small lapels, "I think it's okay, you go and look in the mirror, see for yourself, what do you think." ”

Zhou Jianping nodded in front of the mirror, seemingly satisfied with this outfit.

"Do you want to try that light blue collarless zip-lock jacket again?" Zhao Xinmei suggested.

"Still trying? I think this set looks better than a zipper jacket. Zhou Jianping said.

"If you like it, don't try it."

After the salesman packed it, Zhao Xinmei discussed with Zhou Jianping, "It's not early, there are a lot of places to go today, why don't you buy a tie in this shopping mall?" ”

"I listen to you, what do you say, I'll follow." Zhou Jianping said.

"Don't say that, how can you, the director of a big factory, listen to me, let others know that it doesn't sound good to say." Zhao Xinmei pretended to be serious and said.

When he came to the tie area and saw ties of various colors and textures, Zhou Jianping said: "I don't know anything about this thing!" ”

"Nothing else, you just pick the colors and patterns you like, as for the texture, you have to touch it by hand, it feels good, and the texture is naturally good."

"They all look good, which one should you choose?" Faced with all kinds of dazzling ties, Zhou Jianping didn't know how to buy.

"Don't worry, let's take a look first, what do you think of this pattern?" Zhao Xinmei pointed out a blue-bottomed, red-and-white striped tie to Zhou Jianping.

"You're right, take a look at it and don't rush."

"It is recommended that you buy two ties, one is bright and lively, and the other is solemn and serious."

"Is it important to wear a tie?" Don't be afraid of jokes when you say it, Zhou Jianping had a suit with a bad texture and a crumpled tie before, but he couldn't tie it, and he had never worn a suit and tie.

"Of course, there is exquisiteness, to attend different occasions, to match different colors of ties, in a serious and solemn occasion, you wear a bright and lively tie, it seems very inappropriate."

"It's easy to understand that it's bright and lively, and when you say solemn and serious, what color do you mean?" Zhou Jianping consulted carefully.

"Generally, dark blue, purple, germanium red and other colors look more solemn, of course, some solemn and serious occasions, with plain tones are also very good, if not, you can buy three, plus one elegant."

The two of them turned around for nearly half an hour, and Zhao Xinmei helped to refer to the three styles of tie Zhou Jianping finally bought one of each.

It was more than seven o'clock in the evening when I returned to the hotel, and because I only cared about shopping in the mall during the day, lunch was just a makeshift meal, and by this time, both of them were hungry. Putting things in the room, Zhou Jianping proposed to find a place to have dinner immediately.

Walking enough during the day, Zhou Jianping and Zhao Xinmei felt a little tired, they didn't want to go too far for dinner, the two came to the hotel restaurant on the second floor, just during the rush hour, but the restaurant was not very busy, they sat down at a table in a different location.

Zhao Xinmei has been in Jiansheng Food Factory for almost a year, after various occasions of contact and exchange, she and Zhou Jianping have no shyness and politeness at the beginning, after sitting down, the two ordered their favorite dishes, Zhou Jianping asked Zhao Xinmei if she wanted to drink, "Since you arrived in your factory, have you seen me drink?" Zhao Xinmei looked straight at Zhou Jianping.

"Just because I've never seen you drink doesn't mean you can't drink!" Looking at each other, Zhou Jianping also looked at Zhao Xinmei's eyes bravely.

"How so?"

"I don't believe that when you were in the business management department of Xiangyang Food Factory, you didn't drink alcohol when you attended the occasion."

"I really guessed it right, every time I go out to socialize or have a superior leader come to the factory to inspect the work, as long as we are accompanied, we have to drink. But there's no way to deal with the scene, in fact, from the bottom of my heart, I don't want to drink. ”

"I'll just say, it's impossible for someone like you not to drink."

While speaking, the dishes were ready, and Zhou Jianping asked the waiter to bring a bottle of low-degree Wuliangye.

"Just now you said that people like me, may I ask the leader, what kind of person am I in your eyes?" Zhao Xinmei covered her cup and didn't let Zhou Jianping pour wine.

"The style is pungent, super capable, vigorous and resolute, dare to say and do, far-sighted, but also gentle and virtuous, careful and thoughtful, extraordinary taste, very aesthetic." Zhou Jianping held the bottle and prepared to pour the wine.

"Thank you for the leader's praise, but I'm still very happy to hear the leader's praise."

"It's good to be happy. Let me emphasize to you that from now on, as long as no outsiders are present, you should not call me a leader or a factory director, it will seem unnatural. ”

"What shall I call you?"

"Call it by name, Zhou Jianping or Jianping, whatever you want."

"That'----, a bit disrespectful, isn't it?" Zhao Xinmei said seriously.

"Why do you need so much respect when it's just you and me? You said a long time ago that names are meant to be called. Okay, don't cover your glass, I'll pour you a drink. ”

Zhao Xinmei snatched the bottle, "Originally, I didn't plan to drink alcohol in Jiansheng Food Factory, it seems that you have to let me open the ring tonight, okay, then listen to you, but how can I let you pour wine, pouring wine is mine." ”

After everything was ready, Zhou Jianping raised his wine glass, "Thank you Xinmei!" Cheers to us gathering in the Southland! ”

Zhao Xinmei put down her glass, "The first glass of wine you proposed, I must respond, otherwise it will be a loss of face, although the wine is drunk, I still want to ask you, why do you want to thank me?" ”

"Do you still need to ask? Thank you for your concern for me. ”

"Hey, what's the point of worrying about the little things that work hard? There is no need to thank you, so don't say this again. Come, drink! Zhao Xinmei took the initiative to raise her glass.

"Xinmei, I'm not afraid of your jokes, in front of you, I'm a dirt bun with scum, there were no conditions before, and the old family didn't have the concept of dressing and matching, even if the conditions are good now, because I haven't developed such a habit, I don't have such a concept in my head, so the clothes are just worn indiscriminately, maybe sometimes others are laughing behind my back, and I don't know it myself."

"I understand this, after all, you are working hard outside, and there is no one around to take care of your daily life, which is very difficult. As long as you do a good job in the business, these are trivial things. Zhao Xinmei said.

"But your sentence is very reasonable, as long as you go out to do errands, no matter where you go, I represent our company, just imagine, I am nondescript in terms of clothing, how will people think of Jiansheng Food Factory? We're a food company! This kind of seemingly small thing, but in fact it is a major event related to the corporate image, no one has reminded or advised me before. ”

"The main thing is that your family is not in front of you, after all, women are more sensitive in this regard."

Zhou Jianping put down the wine glass again, "You look down on my family, even in front of her, she can't give any good advice, because she may not be better than me in this regard." ”
