Chapter 44: Confiding
I don't know if Xu Shao'an, who is in charge of security, is intentional or unintentional, Huang Ying'er was arranged in the car where Zhang Weixin was sitting, and no one else sat in this car except for the Zhong family coachman who was driving the car. Although Huang and Zhang had a lot of opinions about Xu Shaoan's arrangement, they couldn't find a suitable reason to refute it, so Zuihou still had no choice but to get into the car.
With the coachman's command, the carriage began to move slowly, because there was still a box of silver in the carriage, which took up part of the space, and after Huang and Zhang got on the carriage, they had to huddle together, and they were very embarrassed to each other. Both of them wanted to say something to each other, but neither knew how to speak. Both of them were silently thinking about their hearts, and they both hoped that the other party would speak first, so that they could have a step down so that they could say what was in their hearts. As you can imagine, there was no sound in the carriage except for the faint sound of the wind and the shouting of the coachman from outside the car, and it was extremely silent.
In the end, it was Huang Ying'er who broke the silence, couldn't help but open her mouth first, and said softly: "Daochang Zhang, thanks to you for rescuing me this time, otherwise my two family members and I would have become ghosts under the knife now, thank you so much." After speaking, when he raised his eyes, he saw that Zhang Weixin was wearing a casual dress today, and thought that it was precisely because he heard the situation at the so-called auction told by Uncle Yang that he decided to go out of the city to the Yuxu Palace to find out the origin of this stinky Taoist priest who didn't know the truth but made it difficult for him to let go, so that he would meet those bandits and encounter this unwarranted disaster. For a while, he was both aggrieved and annoyed, and without waiting for Zhang Weixin to answer, he deliberately looked the other party up and down, and said with something in his words: "Or I should call you Zhang Gongzi, or Zhang Yuanwai is more appropriate!" ”
Zhang Weixin listened to her thanks, and just wanted to say a few humble words, but was choked back by her later words, and he really didn't know how to answer her for a while. For a long time, Zhang Weixin was angry because she was hiding something from herself, and always felt that she was close to her with ulterior motives. But now that I think about it, I can't hide something from her. And in a sense, no matter how the relationship between the two develops in the future, I am afraid that the secrets of her life history and other aspects will never let her know the truth. From the tone of Huang Ying'er's questioning, Zhang Weixin could hear the endless grievances and grievances, and his heart couldn't help but soften, and he organized his language slightly, and told the other party the standard answer to introduce his origin to the outside world.
As a teacher of the history department of the university, he has a considerable level of eloquence and linguistic organization. The rhetoric that was originally made up was very complete, but after his colorful narration, the performance was even more ups and downs and exciting. Listening to Huang Ying'er as if she was there, she was sometimes nervous and sometimes happy as he spoke, and she had already thrown the grievances and dissatisfaction in her heart out of the clouds. When Zhang Weixin Zuihou said that they went through hardships, finally returned to Middle-earth, settled down with the help of Zhong Yuanwai, and let themselves have a certain economic foundation through the auction, and were ready to rely on their own ability to live a down-to-earth life in the future, Huang Ying'er also breathed a sigh of relief, a delicate and lubricated pretty face was slightly flushed because she was driven by the tense plot, which made her look more bright and incomprehensible, and Zhang Weixin on the side couldn't help but feel a little stupid in his eyes.
Huang Ying'er felt strange about the quiet carriage again, she turned her head to look and found that Zhang Weixin was looking at her blankly, she couldn't help blushing, hurriedly lowered her head, and said shyly: "Don't look at people like this, it's embarrassing." ”
Zhang Weixin found that he was a little out of shape, so he hurriedly withdrew his eyes, smiled awkwardly, and didn't know what to say for a while. Fortunately, Huang Ying'er listened to his story and already understood that he had some things that he couldn't tell the truth at the beginning. Now that they have explained clearly, they have untied the knot, and they are not only not annoyed by his "impolite" behavior, but a little proud.
The cold situation that appeared again in the carriage was soon broken by Huang Ying'er, who was determined to repay the peach after a fierce ideological struggle, and revealed his life history and discernment. As she slowly told her about her life for more than ten years, Zhang Weixin's expression, which was still a little helpless, gradually became solemn, he really didn't expect that the seemingly weak woman in front of him would have such a bumpy experience and could write a novel.
When Huang Ying'er told the things she knew about Feiyantang without reservation, Zhang Wei was even more moved with confidence. Although he had not personally experienced it, he could still imagine what kind of punishment this kind of secret organization would have for members who leaked the organization's internal secrets. Now Huang Ying'er can disregard her own safety and tell him about it, what does this mean, no matter how stupid Zhang Weixin is, he can figure it out. It's just that he can't be emotional, even if he no longer has any doubts about Huang Ying'er - maybe she should call her original name Yang Xiaoyun - the rules and regulations of the team can't be violated casually. On the contrary, as a member of the committee, he is more to be strictly abiding. Therefore, before reporting the relevant situation to the committee and getting the review and approval, he can't give any promise to Yang Xiaoyun, who is looking forward to it.
After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Weixin looked at Huang Ying'er solemnly, and said in a sincere tone: "Ying'er, oh, let's call you Xiaoyun, I prefer this name." Xiaoyun, I understand your thoughts, and it is my blessing for Zhang Weixin to be favored by you. However, I hope you understand that I am not only responsible for myself personally, but also for the whole team as a member of my team. In other words, I don't just belong to myself, I belong to the whole team. For those of us who have returned from overseas, the environment in this strange land of Middle-earth can be described as dangerous, which requires all of us to face it together, and each member is indispensable to the team.
Because of this, team members are required to make any decisions that affect their own future, taking into account the impact on the team and trying to gain as much understanding as possible from the rest of the team. You should be able to imagine that because of your previous concealment of your identity, team members may have doubts about the purpose of your association with me. Now you have told me all about your origins, which shows your sincerity. But before I make a commitment to you, I need to communicate this information to the team members, or at least to the key members of the team, to change their perception of you. ”,
As he spoke, he stretched out his hands, held Huang Ying'er's soft softness, and said word by word: "I believe in the phrase 'sincerity, gold and stone are open', I believe that with our sincerity, we will be able to obtain their understanding, are you willing to give me a little time, let me use our sincerity to persuade them?" ”
Zhang Weixin's words made Yang Xiaoyun a little incomprehensible, she didn't understand that Zhang Weixin's own emotional problems needed to be recognized by his peers, and those people were not his parents and elders, so why should he make decisions about his marriage. However, she could feel from Zhang Weixin's expression and tone that he was telling the truth, maybe the process of returning to Middle-earth with his companions was too difficult, and they were good brothers who trusted each other in life and death, and they didn't want their brothers who had come to this point with great difficulty to be in danger because of carelessness. After all, they had hidden something from them in the first place, and it was normal for them to be wary of themselves because of this. And she can feel that Zhang Weixin's feelings for her are real, and saying this to herself is by no means a prevarication, it is indeed a last resort. So although he didn't understand it very well, he decided to accept his request and give him some time so that he could convince his companions. In fact, it is not only Zhang Weixin who has to convince her companions, but the problems she faces are only bigger than Zhang Weixin. However, she firmly believes that as long as he is by her side, any difficulties can be solved.
After thinking about all this, Yang Xiaoyun nodded lightly to Zhang Weixin, who had a willing face, and said, "Although I don't understand that your so-called team weishenme will have such a strange rule, but I understand my thoughts about you very well, and I also understand your thoughts about me." So whether I understand the rules of your team or not, I promise you, give you time, and hope you don't let me down. ”
After getting the other party's understanding, Zhang Weixin could be said to be relieved, he shook the soft and boneless little hand in his palm vigorously, and promised: "Don't worry, I will never let you down." ”
It's just that the grip is really heavy this time, Yang Xiaoyun couldn't help but snort softly in pain, and said angrily: "Light, it hurts me so hard." ”
Hearing this, Zhang Weixin hurriedly let go, scratched his head, and said curtly: "I'm sorry, I'm a little overjoyed." Then he smirked at Yang Xiaoyun, but Yang Da Mei replied to him with countless eye darts.
It is often said that getting along with beautiful women always feels that time flies quickly, and Zhang Weixin feels like this now. felt that he hadn't had much time chatting with the big beauties around him, and the Zhong family coachman who was driving the car had already informed him that he had arrived at the gate of Liangxiang City. Although reluctant, as one of the leaders of the gold transport team, he had to get out of the car to communicate with the soldiers guarding the city gate so that the convoy could enter the city smoothly.
Fortunately, they used to enter the city often, and the soldiers guarding the city gate were familiar with them. And knowing that they have a good relationship with Hu Zhixian and Zheng Zhutou, and every time they enter the city, they will stuff themselves with a lot of so-called tea money and wine money, so when the military leader guarding the gate saw Zhang Weixin getting out of the car, he hurriedly greeted him with a smile. Zhang Weixin also smiled, exchanged a few words with him, and stuffed a string of copper coins that had been prepared into the other party's hand. Then the military leader grabbed the copper coin and pretended to excuse himself, and waved his hand to let the convoy enter the city.
After the convoy entered the city, Zhang Weixin did not rush to Qi Yuanwai's house, but decided to go to the Yuelai Inn where he lived first to rest. It was almost noon, and there were so many people in my own way, so it was not appropriate to rush to visit the door for dinner. Second, Yang Xiaoyun's matter has not yet been recognized by the team, and it is inconvenient for her to be present in this transaction, so as not to have opinions from other members. Besides, the situation on Qingchen and Yang's father and son's side is still unclear, and they have to figure it out to rest assured. The others didn't have a problem with that, anyway, everyone was a little hungry, and it was just a matter of asking for a trade after lunch. And in terms of time, after making a deal with Qi Yuanwai today, it was too late to rush back to Yuxu Palace before dark, and now it is safe to find a good place to live.
For the arrival of Zhang Weixin and their old customers, Boss Cui of Yuelai Inn naturally welcomed it. On the one hand, he beckoned everyone to still live in the East Cross Courtyard, and on the other hand, at the request of Zhang Weixin, he sent his men to Tianfu Building to order a meal for them.
After entering the East Cross Courtyard, Zhang Weixin first arranged for Yang Xiaoyun, who came to wait for Qingchen's news, and then took advantage of the fact that there was still some time to leave the meal, he found Xu Shaoan and Zeng Zhilin together, and told the two of them what Yang Xiaoyun said to him as it was, wanting to hear their opinions first.
Xu and Zeng were also taken aback when they heard this, they didn't expect that this Huang Ying'er girl, who should be called Yang Xiaoyun now, would have such a tortuous and complicated background. At the same time, I can also feel this Yang girl's infatuation with Zhang Weixin - even her life is given up, which can definitely be regarded as infatuation.
As far as Xu and Zeng are concerned, they have no opinion on this relationship, and they feel that it is a good thing that a lover can eventually become a family. However, Xu Shaoan also made it clear that whether this marriage could have a happy ending in the end was not something that the two of them could say. Although Zeng Zhilin is one of the members of the review team, according to the regulations, he and Liang Ziyue need to jointly pass it before it can be accepted by the committee. And because Zhang Weixin is a member of the committee, according to the team's regulations, the matter needs to be re-reviewed by the committee.
After talking about a lot of rules and regulations, Xu Shaoan didn't forget to encourage Zhang Weixin a few words, he patted the other party's shoulder and comforted: "Lao Zhang, you don't have to worry too much about this. Although Huang ...... before, uh, Miss Yang didn't tell the truth because of her sensitive identity, which made everyone suspicious of her. But she has now made up for it with her actions, and what she said explains the suspicions we found in our investigation of her. So I think that whether it is Ziyue or the other members of the committee, they will accept her explanation and will not insist on beating the mandarin ducks. ”
Zhang Weixin knew that what Xu Shaoan said was reasonable, nodded and expressed his gratitude to the two, as for the outcome of this relationship, it is only fate. The three of them chatted a little more, and then they heard the sound of dust clearing outside the courtyard. The three of them hurriedly came from the house, and saw Qingchen and the two Yang Xiaoyun's family members walking into the courtyard together. Judging from Yang Kefu's behavior and expression, his eyes should be fine. ,
Qingchen came over to greet Zhang, Xu and others, and said that Yang Kefu's eyes were no longer a problem because he went to the medical center in time to deal with them and washed the lime. Everyone was relieved when they heard this, and Yang Xiaoyun, who came out of his room after hearing the news, also breathed a sigh of relief. First, she was worried about Yang Kefu's health, and secondly, she was also afraid that once Yang Kefu's eyes had problems, that Liu Yunyan would definitely find out after returning from Youzhou, and it would be difficult for her to coax her to the past at that time.
After the battle outside the city, the relationship between these people in Yuxu Palace and the Yang family's father and son, especially Yang Kefu, has also become closer, and now that Yang Kefu is fine, they are naturally happy. By the time Tianfulou brought their lunch to them, everyone was already like brothers, except for the person in charge of guarding the vehicle, they were all sitting around a table, talking and laughing.
After eating this lunch lively, everyone went back to their rooms to digest their food, and prepared to go to Qi Yuanwai's house to complete the transaction later. At this time, a guy in charge of delivering food from Tianfulou took the meal money from Zhang Weixin, approached him, and asked with a smile on his face: "Is Zhang Daochang still satisfied with the taste of the food?" ”
Zhang Weixin picked his teeth and nodded and said, "Satisfied, satisfied." Tianfulou is worthy of being the first restaurant in Liangxiang, and the food tastes really good. ”
The guy asked tentatively, "The little one wants to take the liberty of asking, how long will Daochang Zhang stay in the city this time." If there is enough time, my boss Chen hopes to talk to Zhang Daochang and several other Taoist leaders. ”
Zhang Weixin, who was originally just used to saying a few kind words, heard that this guy seemed to have something to say, so he hurriedly stopped picking his teeth and asked suspiciously: "I don't know what Boss Chen wants to talk about with Poor Dao?" ”
The guy shook his head and said, "I don't know about this little one, my boss Chen didn't tell the little one." ”
Zhang Weixin thought about it and felt that since he and Boss Chen were also acquaintances, he probably wanted to communicate with him about some business matters. After all, the auction held by his side in his restaurant is very sensational and successful, and with the shrewdness of Boss Chen, he will inevitably see that his side will have some unique insights in doing business, and he will naturally think of using the good cooperation between the two sides to get some inspiration from his side. Therefore, he asked the guy to wait for a while, and then went to Xu Shao'an, Fan Wucheng and Zhao Dawei to discuss, Xu, Fan and others also felt that maybe this Boss Chen wanted to learn some new techniques from his side, so they all agreed to accept Boss Chen's invitation.
Then Zhang Weixin came back to see the guy, saying that he agreed to Boss Chen's invitation, and when the matter was over, he came to visit. Because the people who crossed the crowd planned to invite the people of the Qi family to Tianfu Tower for dinner tonight, the meeting time with Boss Chen was tentatively scheduled after the end of this banquet. The guy got the letter and left the other guys to continue to clean up the tableware, and went back to report the news first, it seems that this Boss Chen is still very concerned about this matter.
