20. Art Exhibition
The next day, the alarm clock rang on time, and Jiang Hongdou pressed the alarm clock and got up immediately. Then I changed into a women's suit, and by the way, I painted myself a light makeup before going downstairs.
Jiang Li was eating breakfast, looking at Jiang Hongdou's dress, he couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and exclaimed: "Tut-tut, I didn't expect my sister to look so good when she dressed up a little." ”
Jiang Hongdou said proudly: "That's, don't look at who the sister is." ”
Father Jiang came out of the kitchen and said, "Okay, you two don't blow each other in business." ”
Jiang Hongdou walked over and put his hand on Jiang's father's shoulder and said, "Okay, old Jiang, even commercial blowing can be used." ”
Jiang's mother also dressed up today, and now she was watching the morning news on the sofa, turned her head to Jiang Hongdou and said, "Eat your breakfast, don't start the art exhibition by then, you, the protagonist, are still eating breakfast at home." ”
Jiang Hongdou sat down next to Jiang Li and started to eat breakfast, and glanced at the alarm clock on the wall by the way, and there was still plenty of time.
After breakfast, Jiang left the car and took Jiang's father, Jiang's mother and Jiang Hongdou to the office building, but I didn't expect that many people were waiting outside the door.
Jiang Hongdou hurriedly opened the door and let everyone go in to watch the exhibition. Jiang's father, Jiang mother, and Jiang Li also went in to watch the art exhibition, leaving Jiang Hongdou to wait for Fu Xuanqian at the door.
Jiang Hongdou didn't wait for Fu Xuan, but waited for Xie Xing. Xie Xing walked over to Jiang Hongdou, thinking that she was waiting for her to smile more brightly and said, "Explain these paintings to me?" ”
Jiang Hongdou smiled and said, "Of course you can." Then he accompanied Xie Xing to look at the paintings and explained to him what he thought when he created these paintings.
When Fu Xuan came, he went in for a walk, and he looked at each painting very carefully, and each painting would stay for a long time. Until he saw a portrait of a black face, called "Black Face", he was sure that it was himself. This is Jiang Hongdou's second time painting himself in five years, so he took out his mobile phone and called Fang Zhuobin.
Fang Zhuobin was watching Jiang Hongdou's art exhibition, he had been helping Fu Xuanqian buy Jiang Hongdou's paintings before, and he naturally came today. At this time, he received a call from Fu Xuan, and he asked, "Doctor Fu, which one are you going to buy today?" "Fang Zhuobin was healed by Fu Xuanqian four years ago, so he is very grateful to Fu Xuantuo and has been helping Fu Xuantuo do things.
"Buy that 'Black Face'." Fu Xuantuo said that Fang Zhuobin had an impression, and he had just seen it and it was indeed a very good painting.
Fang Zhuobin hung up the phone and made a call to Jiang Hongdou, Jiang Hongdou was explaining to Xie Xing when she received a call, she walked away and picked up the phone: "Mr. Bai? ”
Fang Zhuobin replied: "It's me, I want to buy your "Black Face". ”
Jiang Hongdou didn't agree as readily as before, but said, "Let me think about it." Jiang Hongdou hung up the phone and walked to Xie Xing's side.
Xie Xing also happened to be looking at the black face at this time, and he said to Jiang Hongdou, "I want to buy this." ”
Jiang Hongdou blurted out: "Don't buy this one, you wait a minute, I'll make a phone call again." Jiang Hongdou ran away again to call Fang Zhuobin.
Fang Zhuobin looked at the phone that had just hung up and rang again, and asked, "Miss Jiang thought about it so quickly?" ”
Jiang Hongdou replied: "Mr. Bai, I don't buy that painting, I'm really embarrassed." ”
Fang Zhuobin was surprised and replied: "It's okay, you are the owner of the painting, don't feel embarrassed." Fang Zhuobin hung up the phone and sent a text message to Fu Xuantuan to tell him that Jiang Hongdou would not buy paintings, and continued to watch the art exhibition.
Jiang Hongdou returned to Xie Xing's side and said to Xie Xing: "I'm sorry, I don't want to sell this painting." ”
Xie Xing smiled and said, "It's okay, then you can always buy me this "Play". Xie Xing pointed to Jiang Hongdou's painting of L playing.
Jiang Hongdou nodded briskly this time and said, "Of course you can, this painting is for you." However, I won't be able to give it to you until the exhibition is over. ”
Xie Xing wanted to touch Jiang Hongdou's head, but Jiang Hongdou avoided him, Jiang Hongdou found the topic and said, "Let's go over there." After saying that, he walked towards the depths of the office building. Xie Xing withdrew his hand, smiled a little bitterly, and followed.
Fu Xuanyun saw this scene when he walked out of the other side of the office building, thinking that the little girl had done a good job this time, and then walked in their direction as well.
Fu Xuanyun pretended to pass by, and then stepped back and said to Jiang Hongdou, "What a coincidence." ”
Jiang Hongdou saw Fu Xuanyun and said happily: "Baishan, you are here!" Seeing Jiang Hongdou's appearance, Fu Xuanyun couldn't help but rub her head, and Jiang Hongdou shyly said, "The hairstyle is messed up." Then style your hair.
Xie Xing, who was standing on the side, watched the interaction between the two, and his heart became even more bitter, but he still smiled and said, "Mr. Fu also came to see the art exhibition?" ”
Fu Xuantuo looked at Jiang Hongdou and replied, "No." ”
Now it was Jiang Hongdou's turn to ask: "Then what are you doing here?" ”
Fu Xuan's face was not red, and his heart was not beating and he said love words: "Come and see how good my little girl is." ”
Jiang Hongdou blushed and lowered his head and asked, "How long have you been here?" ”
Xie Xing interrupted the conversation between the two of them and said, "Then I'll go first, the company still has something to do." ”
Jiang Hongdou said to Xie Xing: "Okay, I'll send the painting to your house when the time comes." Xie Xing nodded and left.
Xie Xing walked out of the office building with long legs, sat in the car and lit a cigarette but did not smoke it. Leaning back in the seat, his face shrouded in shadows, he couldn't see his expression clearly, and he didn't throw away the cigarette until the smoke burned out, and then he threw away the cigarette and drove away.
In the office building, Fu Xuanyun said: "I just came here, come with me to see it." Jiang Hongdou readily agreed, excitedly explaining to him the meaning of these paintings.
Lin Yi and his wife naturally came to cheer, and when they watched the exhibition, they also met Fu Xuantun and Jiang Hongdou. Tang Xiaoshi saw Fu Xuantuo and Jiang Hongdou watching the art exhibition together, and said to Lin Yi beside her with relief: "The two of them have finally made some progress, but I'm so sad." ”
Lin Yi pulled Tang Xiaoshi to the other side to look at the painting and said, "Then let's not disturb them, we will watch ours." Lin Qicai didn't want the two of them to disturb their alone time.
Jiang Hongdou's art exhibition ended successfully, and many people came to see the paintings today, including many painters, and bought a lot of paintings, only a few pairs of Jiang Hongdou were left that they didn't buy. This also shows that Jiang Hongdou's solo exhibition was successful.
When everyone dispersed, and only Jiang Hongdou and the other seven people were left, Tang Xiaoshi said to Jiang Hongdou: "Your results are very good!" That's all there is left after selling. Lin Qi also praised Jiang Hongdou before pulling Tang Xiaoshi away.
Jiang Hongdou asked Jiang Li to take Jiang's father and Jiang's mother back first, and he had to send a painting to Xie Xing, and Fu Xuantuo said that he could send her to Xie Xing's house. Jiang Li looked at the two of them, and finally took Jiang's father, Jiang's mother, and the painting home.
Jiang Hongdou first called Xie Xing and informed Xie Xing in advance that he was going to his house to deliver paintings, and then went to Xie Xing's house with Fu Xuan. Fu Xuantuo parked the car and entered the elevator with Jiang Hongdou. The elevator carried the two to the eighth floor, and Jiang Hongdou pressed the doorbell.
Xie Xing quickly came in and opened the door, and was smiling and asking, "So fast?" The door was all opened, and I saw Fu Xuanyun beside Jiang Honghou. Xie Xing restrained his smile and said, "Come in and sit down." ”
Jiang Hongdou handed the painting to Xie Xing and said, "No, we still have something to do." Jiang Hongdou said goodbye to Xie Xing and left with Fu Xuan.
Xie Xing closed the door with the painting, and after taking the painting to the table in the study, he lit a cigarette and sat in the study, frowning, and watched Jiang Hongdou and Fu Xuanqian downstairs leave together through the window. Xie Xing doesn't smoke, but lights a cigarette when he's irritable.
Jiang Hongdou saw that it was still early and said to Fu Xuantuo: "Let's go to the movies, I know there is a good movie recently." ”
Fu Xuantuo nodded and carried Jiang Hongdou to the Imperial Capital Cinema. Jiang Hongdou said the name of the movie, Fu Xuanyun went to line up to buy tickets, and Jiang Hongdou went to buy popcorn and milk tea and waited on the side.
What Jiang Hongdou wanted to watch was a comedy romance movie, and there were quite a lot of people watching it, and Fu Xuanqian waited in line for a long time to buy a ticket.
Jiang Hongdou contentedly held popcorn and Fu Xuanqian into the entrance, handed the milk tea to Fu Xuantuo, and Fu Xuantuo took the milk tea and said, "This is not healthy." ”
Jiang Hongdou took a big sip of milk tea and replied: "But it's delicious, you can taste it." ”
Under Jiang Hongdou's expectant gaze, Fu Xuanyun took a tentative sip and said, "The sugar content is too high." ”
Jiang Hongdou pretended to be unhappy and said, "Then you don't drink it, if you don't drink it, throw it away." ”
Fu Xuantuo didn't throw away the milk tea, but took another sip and said in Jiang Hongdou's ear: "I think it must not be as sweet as you." Jiang Hongdou's ears turned red instantly, but I didn't expect Fu Xuanqian to be quite good at flirting with girls. Fu Xuanyun saw that Jiang Hongdou's ears were red, and he thought it was funny to tease her.
Jiang Hongdou quickened his pace and walked to the front, turned his head and said to Fu Xuantuan, "Hurry up, the movie is about to start." Fu Xuanyun kept up with Jiang Hongdou's pace and sat down with her.
When he bought it, there were no tickets in the front row, only the last ticket was left, and the two sat in the back row and waited for the movie to start.
The beginning of the movie is very funny, everyone is laughing, Jiang Hongdou is no exception, except for Fu Xuan, who is still expressionless. Later in the movie, the male and female protagonists in the movie finally went through a lot of hardships together, and the two kissed excitedly. Many of the people present were couples, and they all kissed their partners. Jiang Hongdou happened to sit at the back again, watching the people in front of him kiss and was about to look at Fu Xuan, when he saw a big hand reaching over and covering his eyes.
Jiang Hongdou wanted to take Fu Xuan's hand away, but Fu Xuantuo said, "Don't move." ”
Jiang Hongdou frowned and said, "Baishan, what are you doing, how can I watch the movie like this?" ”
Fu Xuanqian still didn't take his hand, and it took a while for Fu Xuanqian to take his hand away. Jiang Hongdou was almost angry, and the picture of the male and female protagonists kissing affectionately for a minute passed like this, and he continued to watch the following movie angrily.
Jiang Hongdou watched the movie, and Fu Xuantuo watched Jiang Hongdou, and suddenly Jiang Hongdou sighed: "It's so romantic!" Only then did Fu turn his attention to the movie, and it turned out that the male protagonist proposed to the female protagonist when the Ferris wheel rose to its highest.
Fu couldn't help asking, "This is called romance?" There was disdain in his tone.
Jiang Hongdou didn't notice it, but continued to sigh: "It's romantic!" ”
It was already more than seven o'clock in the evening when the two came out after watching the movie, and Fu Xuantuo took ginger red beans to eat Japanese food. After eating the Japanese food, Fu Xuantuo sent the ginger red beans home and went to the jewelry store.
Jiang Li was waiting for Jiang Hongdou to come back in the living room, and when he saw her come back, he asked, "What did you do today?" ”
Jiang Hongdou said while changing his slippers: "I didn't do anything, just eat and watch a movie." ”
Jiang Li asked again: "Are you really going to post it upside down?" ”
Jiang Hongdou walked over and pressed Jiang Li's shoulder and said, "What is called upside down, I'm just taking the initiative." By the way, I'm moving out next week. ”
Jiang Li turned his head to look at Jiang Hongdou and asked, "Where did you move out?" ”
Jiang Hongdou replied: "Tingyuan Garden, it's downstairs from Tang Xiaoshi." ”
Jiang Li sighed and said, "It's really a big woman!" ”
Jiang Hongdou returned to the room and turned on the computer, and saw a notice popping up in the mailbox to create clothes, which probably meant that Jiang Hongdou would go to the interview on Friday.
On Friday, Jiang Hongdou wore a workplace suit and drove Jiang Li's car to the company for an interview. The interviewer was a young man who appeared to be a department head. After asking a few professional questions, I asked Jiang Hongdou to go back and wait for the notice.
Jiang Hongdou didn't go home immediately after the interview, but drove to the flower shop to buy the seeds of the moon season, then went home and brought a flower pot to plant the seeds, and then lay down on the sofa after watering.
Jiang's mother came out of the studio and saw Jiang Hongdou lying on the sofa and asked, "Where did you go to wear it so formally?" ”
Jiang Hongdou confessed to Jiang's mother: "Mom, I went to the interview, I will move out next Monday, and I have bought the house." ”
Jiang's mother was slightly surprised when she heard the second half of Jiang Hongdou's words, and then asked a question exactly the same as Jiang Li, and Jiang Hongdou answered truthfully. Mother Jiang was relieved when she heard that it was Tang Xiaoshi's house downstairs, Tang Xiaoshi had always taken care of Jiang Hongdou.
Jiang Mu spoke again: "You are so old, you should be independent." Then he touched Jiang Hongdou's head and turned around and went to the studio. L heard that Jiang Hongdou was going to move out, and ran to Jiang Hongdou to lie on the side.
Jiang Hongdou touched L's supple hair and said, "L, we're going to live downstairs with my dad soon, don't you look forward to it?" So that we can see Daddy every day. L wagged his tail in anticipation.
On Sunday, Jiang Hongdou dressed more casually, and went out directly without makeup. Jiang Hongdou took L to drive Jiang Li's car to the sales office of Tingyuan Garden, Jiang Hongdou asked L to wait for her in the car, and she got out of the car to sign the contract by herself.
Jiang Hongdou met with the sales staff, the contract was quickly filled out, Jiang Hongdou took out his credit card to pay the down payment, and got the key to the house.
Jiang Hongdou couldn't wait to see the house with the key, but when he returned to the car, L was gone. Jiang Hongdou's face turned white with fright, and she hurriedly found L nearby. She had just opened the window to ventilate L, so L should have gone out through the window.
Jiang Hongdou shouted along the road while looking for it: "L, L, where are you?" ”
At this time, L was following behind a Tibetan mastiff that was also a golden retriever, and it turned out that L saw his own kind in the car and jumped out of the window. The golden Tibetan mastiff turned his head from time to time to see if L had followed. L followed another Tibetan mastiff to the owner of the Tibetan mastiff, a young and thin man.
The man was slightly surprised to see a Tibetan mastiff brought back from his own Tibetan mastiff, and got up from the bench to look at L's dog tag. The man took out his phone and dialed the number on the dog tag.
Jiang Hongdou was in a hurry to find L, and when her phone rang, she saw that it was a strange call and was about to hang up, but thinking that it might be the person who picked up L, she still picked it up.
"Your dog is with me." It was a young man's voice, and he said it without much warmth.
Jiang Hongdou hurriedly asked clearly, and then walked towards the park. Jiang Hongdou saw the man on the phone from a distance, and L next to him. Jiang Hongdou ran towards them, hugged L and said, "L, how can you run out by yourself, I don't know if my mother will be very worried about you?" I'll clean you up when I get home. ”
Jiang Hongdou stood up and said to the man, "Thank you very much for finding L." ”
The man still didn't have much temperature, looked at the Tibetan mastiff and said, "Thank you." ”
Jiang Hongdou looked at the other Tibetan mastiff and asked, "What's his name?" He's a boy, right? ”
The man replied coldly: "Xiaozhi, male." "Jiang Hongdou has seen it today, there are still people in the world who are colder than Fu Xuan.
Jiang Hongdou asked again: "What do you call you?" ”
The man sat on the bench and replied to Xiao Zhi along the hair: "Passerby." ”
Jiang Hongdou felt a little bored with himself, and after thanking him again, he wanted to take L back, but L didn't leave, and kept sticking to Xiaozhi.
Jiang Hongdou looked at L, as if he saw his former self, and he was also reluctant to leave Baishan. Jiang Hongdou squatted down helplessly and said to L: "You will have a chance to meet in the future." L reluctantly followed Jiang Hongdou away, and Xiao Zhi watched L leave and followed him for a while before returning to his master.
