Chapter 43: The Case Is Solved
Now that Su Jingxian's newspaper has begun to make a profit, naturally there is no need to let his father Su Shoucai and younger brother Su Jingliang continue to be busy as before, the Su family's Xinglong rice shop hired two buddies to help some time ago, and the labor is ninety yuan per person per month, Su Shoucai now stays at home most of the time except for going to the rice shop every day to reconcile accounts.
At this time, in the room, Su Shoucai and Zheng Liru were sitting on the bed, with more than a dozen newspapers of all sizes beside them.
"Look at this one, it says that Ah Xian is a big philanthropist, although he is young, he cares about public welfare, and he also advocates that young people today learn from him." Zheng Liru poked Su Shoucai with her elbow and handed the newspaper to him.
Su Shoucai can barely read a few words, and it's okay for him to look at the account book, but it's almost impossible to read the newspaper, but now when he sees Zheng Liru handing over the newspaper, he still comes up with a smile on his face, and looks at the photo of Su Jingxian standing in a suit and leather shoes on the charity booth on the front page of the newspaper, and he can't stop laughing.
"The current newspapers are really nonsense, and the decrepit boy is only nineteen years old, what kind of big philanthropist." Su Shoucai looked at the newspaper with different hearts.
Zheng Liru glanced at him, put away the newspaper in her hand, picked up another one and flipped through it, and said something in her mouth: "Reveal the love affair of the young boss of China Hong Kong Daily, and his girlfriend turned out to be her...... Ah Hyun has a girlfriend? ”
"Nonsense?" Su Shoucai's eyes widened, and he snatched the newspaper from Zheng Liru's hand.
It was still a tabloid, and the front page of the newspaper printed a photograph of the audience under the charity booth that day, in which Su Jingxian in the first row of the audience was chatting and laughing with a young woman sitting on the left-hand side.
If it's just such a photo, it's nothing, but with the headline and article of this tabloid, it can't help but lead to reverie.
"This decrepit boy, you have a girlfriend and you don't tell us?"
When Su Jingxian pushed open the door, he couldn't help but be stunned when he heard his father Su Shoucai's words.
"Got a girlfriend? Ah Liang? Turning his head to look at his younger brother Su Jingliang, who was sitting on a chair peeling oranges in the hall, seeing that his younger brother raised his head to look at him with a blank face, Su Jingxian closed the door, and his face showed gossip, "Which girl?" Is it pretty? ”
As soon as Zheng Liru saw Su Jingxian's appearance of playing treasure, she knew that the newspaper was making up nonsense, and shook her head at him with a smile.
Su Shoucai was still frowning, and when he saw Su Jingxian coming in, he handed the newspaper to him: "All of them are being photographed and pretending to be stupid?" But then again, you're also a big boy, when will you bring your girlfriend back to discuss marriage. ”
Su Jingxian turned his face and glanced at his mother Zheng Liru, and pointed to his head: "Has my old bean been resting at home for a long time, ...... here?"
Zheng Liru scolded with a smile: "It's not big, it's not small!" You first look at what is written in the newspaper. ”
Taking the newspaper from his father's hand, Su Jingxian glanced at the headline, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Huh! Scribbled in the newspapers! Now this kind of tabloid is all relying on rumors and lace news to boost sales, and last year there was a newspaper in the middle of the year that Lu Xiaoman bought off the airline in the plane crash of Xu Zhimo, and the entire newspaper was burned down the next day. ”
Putting down the newspaper in his hand, Su Jingxian didn't care about the news published on it at all.
In fact, he didn't remember the name of the young girl in the newspaper who was talking to him, because there were too many celebrities from Hong Kong and Macao at the charity booth that day, and he had to talk to the boss of China Hong Kong Daily, one of the organizers, but it just happened that this photo was taken by the reporter and taken out to make an article.
"Is it really scribbling?" Su Shoucai picked up the newspaper again and looked at the photo on it, and then turned his head to look at Zheng Liru, with an inquiring look in his eyes.
Zheng Liru simply turned her face away from looking at him, and when she looked at Su Jingxian, her face showed smile lines again: "Ah Xian, the newspaper is scribbled, but you will be twenty years old soon, and your career will be successful, it's time to think about personal problems." ”
Hearing Zheng Liru mention this matter, Su Shoucai also looked at Su Jingxian with eager eyes: "Yes, Xianzai, the shopkeeper Gong of the dim sum shop on the corner of the street also told me about this matter two days ago, his daughter is eighteen years old this year, and there is a chance for you young people to get along more together." ”
"Isn't it! Shopkeeper Gong's daughter? It's just that I often sit in front of the store, and my waist is thicker than the bucket? Su Jingxian thought of the fat woman who often sat at the door of the dim sum shop on the corner of the street, and looked at Su Shoucai with incredible eyes, "You are really my dear old bean!" ”
Su Shoucai was also stunned when he heard this, and looked at Zheng Liru: "Why is the daughter of the shopkeeper Gong so fat?" ”
Zheng Liru was angry and funny, and said to Su Jingxian: "The one you are talking about is the eldest daughter of the shopkeeper Gong, who has been married for several years, and the youngest daughter of the shopkeeper Gong is born well. ”
"Talk about it again! I passed by the hexagram stall today, and if I was a fortune teller, I didn't get married until I was thirty years old, so you two don't have to worry about it! Su Jingxian snorted and said to his mother, "Grandma, I'm hungry, come to eat at night on the hour." ”
Hearing Su Jingxian say that he was only married at the age of thirty, the expressions on the faces of Su Shoucai and Zheng Liru's in-laws suddenly became wonderful.
"Thirty years old? When your grandfather was Chinese New Year's Eve years old, I was already fourteen years old, and I could carry sandbags on the docks. Su Shoucai glared at Su Jingxian, "A fortune teller talking nonsense? Tomorrow you take me to him! ”
Zheng Liru got up and was about to go to the kitchen to make supper, while muttering: "How can the fortune teller on the side of the road believe it?" Ah Xian, don't take it seriously, tomorrow I will go to the Guanyin Temple of Tsz Yun Mountain to ask you about the marriage, Guanyin Niangniang is the most accurate! ”
"Last time the queen of heaven was born, you said that the queen of heaven was the most accurate?" Su Jingxian pursed his lips and walked out of the room with his mother Zheng Liru, ready to go to the kitchen to help cook.
At the dining table in the hall, Su Jingliang saw his mother and eldest brother come out, and beckoned to Su Jingxian: "Big guy, did you mean to look at me before you entered the door?" ”
Su Jingxian had the intention to tease him, and laughed: "Lao Dou and Grandma said that you have a girlfriend outside, and you don't want to get it at home, it's a decrepit boy!" ”
What Su Jingxian didn't expect was that his younger brother Su Jingliang blushed for the first time after hearing his words, and said in a slightly twisted whisper: "I haven't told anyone else about this, how did they know?" ”
The smile on Su Jingxian's face froze little by little, and he looked at his younger brother fixedly, and only blinked after a while before he came back to his senses.
Good guy, I accidentally solved the case!
"Which girl's girl?" Su Jingxian looked at his younger brother and added, "When did you hook up?" ”
"Big guy, it's so ugly to talk about hooking up!" Younger brother Su Jingliang glanced at Su Jingxian dissatisfied, and then said with a smile, "The little Hua Dan I met last time I went to the theater to watch a play came from a serious family, but I think the time we got along is too short, and I plan to tell you after a while." ”
Su Jingxian looked at his younger brother who was obviously in a fluttering heart, and spit out two words from his mouth: "Sharp!" ”
