Chapter 673: A Bright Boy
Gong Yigua invited Wen Shuo to the living room of the house, instructed his wife to quickly make tea and pour water, and said, "You rest for a while, I'll go outside to buy some wine and food." ”
"Mr. Gong, don't be so polite......" Wen Shuo hurriedly got up and politely.
"You sit, sit down and wait, ah! I forgot to introduce, this is my wife Jiang Yao. Gong Yigua turned his head and instructed his wife: "Cook a few good dishes in a while, Wen Shuo is our family's honored guest!"
Jiang Yao, who was dressed plainly and did not have the slightest trace of makeup, but had the unique soft and dignified posture of a Jiangnan woman, smiled while making tea.
Without waiting for Wen Shuo to say anything, Gong Yigua turned around and strode out.
"I'm really embarrassed that I don't have any preparations to entertain guests at home. Jiang Yao said in a soft tone and with a slightly apologetic expression: "You have a cup of tea first, I will go to the kitchen to cook vegetables, I hope I will forgive me for my negligence." ”
"Hey, don't dare, I'm bothering. Wen Shuo hurriedly said politely - he really had never met such a woman who was a little "knowledgeable".
Okay!
It feels like you've been in an ancient family.
Jiang Yao had just left the living room when an agile little body quickly turned out from the side of the stairs.
But it was the young man Wen Shuo met outside the street gate before, the son of Gong Yigua.
"Hey, I didn't expect you to really know my dad. The young man ran over to look at Wen Shuo, and said with a smile: "Moreover, I was called a distinguished guest by my father's old feudal stubbornness, who has always been self-defeating!"
Wen Shuo was stunned, how could this kid say in front of outsiders that his father was pretentious or stubborn?
"What's your name?" asked Wen Shuo with a straight face.
"My name is Gong Xiang, Xiang Yu's Xiang!" the young man raised his head with a proud look and said, "What's wrong?"
"Oh, Gong Xiang?!" Wen Shuo snorted softly, revealing a contemptuous look, and said: "As the saying goes, blue is better than blue, I think you are very smart, presumably, your ability is much stronger than your father's now, isn't it?"
Gong Xiang is indeed a much smarter child than his peers, and immediately heard the sarcasm from Wen Shuo's words, he squinted his eyes and said: "If you have anything to say, just say it, don't be sneering, it's not interesting......" He paused, and without waiting for Wen Shuo to respond, he continued: "I understand, you can't listen to me just said that my father is pretentious, old feudal, and old Wang, and he seems to be very uneducated and disrespectful to his father." ”
Wen Shuo was stunned, and then laughed and said, "Isn't it?"
"Alas. Gong Xiang sat down on the sofa next to him with a sad face like a little adult, and peeked out twice, as if he was afraid of being heard and seen by his mother, and then said: "I didn't wronged him at all, and he admitted it himself, and allowed me to say that about him." Well, you came to my house today and said it was his friend, and my mom and I had an unbelievable feeling. ”
"Why?" Wen Shuo wondered.
"He doesn't have any friends at all. Gong Xiang pouted with an aggrieved look, and said: "The family with the same surname Lianzhi, as well as relatives, he is too lazy to move around to socialize, let alone the neighborhood...... Alas. ”
"This ......"
Wen Shuo was speechless for a while.
First, he was surprised that Gong Xiang was young, his speech was clear, and his thinking was obviously much more mature than that of the same person; second, he really didn't expect that Gong Yigua would be such a number...... A pretentious man?
Is this pretentious?
Shouldn't it?!
Although he didn't have much contact with Gong Yigua, he also cooperated to eliminate evil last time, and the two were quite compatible between the words, no matter how you look at Gong Yigua, he is not the kind of person who is pretentious, looks down on anyone, and even closes himself.
However, no matter how precocious Gong Xiang is, he will not lie about this kind of thing, and he is talking to a relatively strange person.
The reason why he told Wen Shuo these truths......
Wen Shuo, who is quite accomplished in psychology, can think of reasons and understand them.
Gong Xiang is still a child after all, and he is a lively and cheerful teenager, from childhood to adulthood, among his daily friends, when walking around his relatives and family, it is inevitable to hear all kinds of bad comments about his father, and some unpleasant words fall in his ears, and he will naturally sulk.
Yes, there will be complaints about my father.
Now that my father has a friend who comes to visit, for this teenager, one is a novelty, and the other is a surprise!
So he couldn't hold it back and took the initiative to run over and chat with Wen Shuo.
"Your dad ......" Wen Shuo weighed his words and said with a smile: "He may also have his own difficulties." ”
"Hmm. Gong Xiang nodded and said, "Actually, I can also understand his distress." ”
Wen Shuo was once again shocked by the young man's words and reason, and he couldn't help but say, "Can you talk to me about your father's suffering?" ”
Gong Xiang rolled his eyes and said, "You're hinting at me and talking too much to a stranger like you, aren't you?"
"Maybe there's something about it. Wen Shuo smiled and said, "But at least, if you can make your father, an old feudal and stubborn man who is self-assured, be a friend, as you said, may still be his only friend, then at least it can show that I am a relatively reliable and trustworthy person, isn't it?"
Gong Xiang frowned and thought about Wen Shuo's words very seriously, and only said after a while: "He is proud of himself, what else can the so-called hardship be? ”
"Then what do you think of his self-esteem?" Wen Shuo smiled, "Tell the truth." ”
"Alas, I used to think he was a little nervous, and he studied some superstitious things all day long. Now I think so, then, let me state first, it's not just because he can make money that I change my opinion about him. Gong Xiang said seriously.
"Well, I believe you. Wen Shuo nodded hurriedly.
"Although I don't quite understand, and I can't say that his things are not superstitions, but ......," Gong Xiang said: "From a dialectical point of view, first of all, those rich people, such as the guests who came today, are certainly not stupid, right? And they are much smarter than most people, such smart people believe in my dad's set of things, and let my father tell them fortunes, what does it mean? Either my dad is smarter than them and can deceive people; or, my dad's set of things has a certain truth, and fortune-telling is really accurate." ”
Wen Shuo nodded appreciatively and said, "Which possibility do you prefer?"
"The second. Gong Xiang pursed his lips and said: "I don't think I'm proud of being high, thinking that my dad is much smarter than others, on the contrary, I always think that his emotional intelligence is very low, otherwise no matter how high he is, don't let people see it, right?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Wen Shuo nodded hurriedly, and suddenly felt that this young man was quite angry with himself, and he had a little bosom friend.
Seeing that Wen Shuo agreed with his point of view like this, Gong Xiang became more and more happy, and said, "Hey, what you say counts, don't sue me in front of my parents!"
"How is it possible?" Wen Shuo said, "I'm most annoyed by beating the traitor of the little report!"
"Uh-huh!" Gong Xiang nodded violently in agreement.
Wen Shuo leaned closer and whispered curiously, "Then, since you affirmed your father's fortune-telling skills, why did you say that he was superstitious outside, and why, did you refuse to learn his skills?"
"I just don't like it anyway. Gong Xiang straightened his face, as if he didn't want to mention this issue.
"Understood!" Wen Shuo nodded solemnly.
Gong Xiang looked puzzled.
At this moment, Gong Yigua came back from outside with a big bag of things, and saw his son talking with Wen Shuo in the living room, so he quickened his pace and said, "Heh, Xiao Xiang, it's good to talk to your Uncle Wen?"
Lukewarm...... Uncle?
One big and one small looked at each other.
Isn't that a bit of a nickname...... After a while?
You know, the two of them were called big brothers and little brothers before, and they were a lifetime apart in the blink of an eye!
"Wen Shuo, this is my son Gong Xiang, who likes to talk and make trouble, don't mind. Gong Yigua glanced at his son dotingly, and said, "Son, you have to study hard from your Uncle Wen, he is a college student at Beijing University, and he started from scratch, and now he has assets of more than 100 million, ...... Recently, he has often been reported on TV, the best young entrepreneur of our time, a model of entrepreneurship, and a role model for young people!"
"Hey, hey, Mr. Gong, don't praise me anymore, I'm so proud, I shouldn't recognize you for a while. Wen Shuo quipped with an awkward smile.
Gong Xiang's eyes widened, and he suddenly slapped his leg and stood up suddenly, and said: "I said that you look familiar, yes, you are the one reported on TV, that Wen Shuo! Hey, I also told my mother at dinner that day that I must be like you in the future! I must not be like my father, who is only a few decades old and began to earn money." ”
Wen Shuo's old face was flushed, and he coughed dryly to hide his embarrassment - this kid, how can he speak?
What do you mean to be like me and not like your dad?
Ambiguity!
It's easier to have major conflicts in the family!
Jiang Yao, who had just come out of the kitchen and was going to take over the ingredients that her husband had bought back to cook, couldn't help but blush when she heard her son's words, and scolded with a smile: "Silly child, what are you talking nonsense!"
With that, she stepped forward to take the things from her husband's hand, turned around and went back to the kitchen.
Emotional intelligence seems to be really as his son said, a little low Gong Yigua, I didn't hear anything wrong with my son's words, he smiled and nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, you will definitely be stronger than me in the future." ”
"Wen ...... Uncle. Gong Xiang squinted his eyes and said with a grin, "Can we be friends?"
"Absolutely!"
"Can I tell my classmates and friends at school that I have such a great friend as you?"
"No, no, no!" Wen Shuo shook his head hurriedly, letting people know that he had a good relationship with Gong Yigua...... It's not that I look down on Gong Yigua's identity, the key is that this identity is quite embarrassing, and if it is reported by the media, it will have a very bad impact, after all, I am also a person now, and I have to pay attention to my image!
"Understood!" Gong Xiang turned his head and walked upstairs like a cunning little fox: "I'm going to do my homework!"
Wen Shuo suddenly came back to his senses, the little rabbit cub is really cunning enough!
Gong Yigua looked at his son's figure, his face full of doting.
