Chapter Eighty-Four: Fireworks in the World
(84) Fireworks in the world
Lin Chenguang listened to his colleague's news of the inspector on Monday, and he was stunned for a long time, then suddenly stood up and hurriedly ran to the door of Qiu Yan's office, "Secretary Liu, I have something to find Mr. Qiu." ”
"Mr. Qiu is not here, you can tell me directly if there is anything." Liu Jiawen looked at Lin Chenguang impatiently, since the news of the inspector was announced, employees like Lin Chenguang who came to Qiu Yan walked one after another, "You joined the company after Mr. Xu's last inspection, right?" No wonder you don't know, every time the news of the inspector is announced, Mr. Qiu does not work in the company in order to make everyone feel at ease to prepare materials, even if she is looking for her, it is useless, she will not interfere with Mr. Xu's judgment and decision-making. I advise you to hurry back and do what you have to do, it is useless to play the favor card in the matter of the inspector. ”
Lin Chenguang smiled and thanked Liu Jiawen and returned to his office. He looked at the data table of the past two months and was confused. After a while, he began to get busy, his fingers expertly rising and falling on the keyboard.
At this time, Qiu Yan was sitting under the grape trellis of Xu Yajun's house reading a book, and there was a cup of tea and a plate of washed grapes on the table next to the rattan chair. Xu Yajun kept saying that she was uncomfortable when she came back from the airport, and she just fell asleep after taking medicine. Qiu Yan didn't worry about him, and watched the people fall asleep and then guarded in the yard.
Xu Yajun woke up and washed up, walked to Qiu Yan's side and sat down while drinking tea while looking at Qiu Yan's books, and said contemptuously: "Women love to read these useless books. ”
Qiu Yan smiled and said, "You don't care about me, I still think the books you read are boring." Do you still have a headache? ”
"Much better." Xu Yajun smiled, leaned back in the chair and looked at the dense grape leaves above his head, the golden sunlight flickered between the green leaves, "You said I should also build such a grape trellis in my new home, looking at these green and red grapes in the summer is very interesting." ”
"Okay, I think I can also grow some vegetables in the yard, and plant some loofahs, bitter gourds and the like by the courtyard wall, and the yard is full of green. I especially like the idyllic scenery hidden in the city. ”
"Growing vegetables? I haven't planted it before, and I'm afraid I can't grow it well. Xu Yajun looked around at his small courtyard, "There have been no vegetables in this yard, and my yard has always been planted with flowers and plants." If you really want a decent vegetable garden, I'm afraid you'll have to do it yourself. ”
"Okay, when you have a new home, you can also plant flowers when you grow vegetables, so that it looks more beautiful. When are you going to show me your new home? ”
"It's our new home." Xu Yajun pinched Qiu Yan's face, "After a while, it's still under construction, and I can't see the outline." ”
Qiu Yan let out an "oh" with some disappointment, and then said excitedly: "What do you want to eat for dinner?" ”
"Whatever, I'm not too hungry."
"I want to eat loofahs, bitter gourds, beans, cucumbers, tomatoes, and the more I talk about it, the hungrier I get, and I want to go grocery shopping." Qiu Yan said and stood up and looked at Xu Yajun and asked, "Are you going?" ”
Xu Yajun smiled and said "hey", stood up and said reluctantly: "I'm sick, and you want me to accompany you to buy vegetables." ”
Qiu Yan smiled and grabbed Xu Yajun's arm, and said affectionately: "No, I can't do anything without you." ”
Xu Yajun was very useful and followed Qiu Yan to the vegetable market with a smile on her face. In the vegetable market, all kinds of fresh seasonal vegetables are neatly arranged, each of which is lovely, and Qiu Yan is very careful to pick and choose. Xu Yajun helped Qiu Yan take the purchased vegetables like a follower, and helped pay for it by the way. Qiu Yan bought vegetables and bought a two-pound sea bass. The two of them walked home with the food they had bought, talking and laughing.
Back at home, Xu Yajun walked into the kitchen to choose dishes with Qiu Yan. While the two were preparing unhurriedly, they chatted in the sky.
Xu Yajun said that he grew up in his grandparents' house when he was a child, and his grandfather's business was relatively busy at that time, and his grandmother mainly took care of his studies and life. His favorite thing to do every day is to go to the kitchen after finishing his homework to give his grandmother a hand, listen to his grandmother talk about the "news" of the day, and feel that the smell of fireworks is very strong, especially the warmth of home. Before graduating from junior high school, he went to the United States with his grandparents under the arrangement of his mother, and since then he has rarely returned to China, until he became the president of Huamei Asia-Pacific and had the opportunity to stay in China for a long time.
"Aren't you coming back to see your father?" Qiu Yan had the impression that Xu Yajun had a good relationship with his father.
"Since their divorce, I haven't been in contact with my father for a long time, mainly because I felt that he was unproductive at that time, and I couldn't even look down on my wife, and I was self-righteous every day. I only reconnected with him when I came to Shanghai to work. The vicissitudes of time have taught people to grow up, but I didn't expect to see my father again without the slightest complaint about me and my mother, and he also cared for my son very much, which made me feel very unfilial. Xu Yajun said with a wry smile, "At that time, it was in this small courtyard that I met Wang Lihua. At first, I thought she had other plans for my father, but it turned out to be the opposite. ”
"Huh?!" Qiu Yan looked at Xu Yajun with a crying and laughing face, "You mean that your father likes Wang Lihua?" ”
Xu Yajun smiled and nodded, "My father didn't say it clearly, I felt it, and it is unlikely that the age difference between the two of them is too big." I thought that my father might be too lonely in his later years and wanted to find emotional comfort from Wang Lihua. Although Wang Lihua is a nanny, she is very decent. She took care of my father in every possible way, but she didn't have any messy thoughts about him, which is why I promised my father to help Wang Lihua. ”
"Then she doesn't have any thoughts about you either?"
"What do you call that? When I met Wang Lihua, she had been working in this family for more than a year, and she had no idea of my existence at that time. ”
"And what happens when she knows?" Qiu Yan broke the casserole and asked to the end, insisting that Xu Yajun personally admit that he and Wang Lihua were innocent, and there was never the slightest ambiguity.
Xu Yajun put down the beans in his hand, hugged Qiu Yan's waist from behind and asked dissatisfiedly, "You doubt me?" ”
Qiu Yan smiled and turned around and kissed Xu Yajun's lips, "No, I just want you to tell me in person that you only have me in your heart." ”
Xu Yajun raised her eyebrows and said jokingly: "You don't have to doubt this, my first kiss was given to you, of course you are my only woman." ”
"It's an honor, and I'll cherish it." Qiu Yan kissed Xu Yajun again, and said affectionately: "Go out and rest, I'll call you when you're ready." ”
Xu Yajun's heart was full of sweetness, looking at Qiu Yan's watery eyes, she was a little embarrassed for a while, "Okay, then I'll go and prepare for tomorrow's inspection." ”。
Qiu Yan quickly washed and chopped vegetables, and soon the fragrance of the food wafted into the yard. Xu Yajun glanced at the figure of the fair lady in the kitchen, and couldn't help but sniff, a smile rippling on the corner of her mouth.
