Chapter 9: Heartbeat
What exactly did He Tian do in the south, no one in the Qiao family knew.
Qiao Zuwang: I wanted to, but I didn't dare to ask.
Wei Shuying: I'm used to not asking.
Qiao's four elementary schools: It's useless to ask.
The concept of tourism in this era is not very strong, and they have discussed it privately, maybe the eldest brother is going to collect wind this time?
The only one who knows the sporadic is Qi Weimin, but he only knows that He Tian is not only going to Yangcheng and Pengcheng this time, but also to Hong Kong Island.
Originally, they only thought that He Tian would go out for ten days and half a month at most, but they didn't expect He Tian to go out this time like forgetting that there was a home in Nanjing.
The admission results of the college entrance examination came out, Qi Weimin was the champion of liberal arts in Nanjing, and He Tian was also the champion, the whole country.
When the news came out, the Qi family and the Qiao family exploded, and joy flew out of the pot and floated all over the sky, Qiao Sanli called the eldest brother excitedly, in exchange for a calm "Oh", which made Qiao Sanli and the rest of the Qiao family waiting next to them confused.
Festive red paper was pasted all over the courtyard of the Qi family and the Qiao family, and the two families held a celebration banquet together, Wei Shufen was so happy that she wanted to take out her coffin, but she didn't do it.
Wei Shufen thought at first that her sister was used to being thrifty and couldn't be extravagant, and complained a few words, but Wei Shuying only said: "It's arranged in Chengdu." “
Wei Shufang closed her mouth very consciously.
On the day of the feast, several chefs and a group of apprentices came to the door early, and fruits, vegetables, and meat were also sent in baskets, and cold beer and local grain and wine were piled up in the corner of the small courtyard, which was quite spectacular.
"Oh, I'm good, how much money did this stinky boy make behind my back? I have raised him for so many years, raised a white-eyed wolf, and I haven't honored my father for so many years! Qiao Zuwang looked at these things in the courtyard and muttered secretly.
The small abacus in his brain was wasted several times, and he couldn't calculate the cost of these materials in front of him.
He pondered, he didn't know if it was enough for his annual salary.
"Wouldn't it be too wasteful... How good it would be if we all stayed, we would eat it ourselves, and we would not be able to eat it until next year. Qiao Erqiang stood next to him, and he was also blushing.
"Elm heads, fruits, vegetables and meat can be put forward for next year? I really didn't inherit any of my intelligence, and if I hadn't watched you come out of your mother's womb, I would have wondered if you were my species. Qiao Zuwang looked at Qiao Erqiang with eyes that hated iron and steel.
Qiao Erqiang's eyes were reluctant to leave those delicious food and drinks, but he also retorted: "Stupid like your son~ Big brother is not like you at all, so he can be so smart, like his mother."
"You bastard!" Qiao Zuwang was furious, and he raised his foot to kick Qiao Erqiang's ass.
Qiao Erqiang just looked at Han, Qiao Zuwang just dodged away as soon as he made a move, and replied with a little owe in his mouth: "I am Wang Ba, that is the old Wang Ba, the thousand-year-old king and eighty-thousand-year-old turtle!" ”
"You're a bastard, aren't you? I can't clean up that little bastard, and I can't clean you up, can I? Today I have to let you understand that you are still your son! Qiao Zuwang looked left and right, grabbed a broom, and rushed towards Qiao Erqiang.
Qiao Erqiang ran out of the door with a loud voice, and Qiao Zuwang chased after him, leaving everyone in the courtyard to look at each other.
"Today's big day, my brother-in-law made such a fuss, it's really..." Wei Shufen's face was a little worried, but she caught a glimpse of Wei Shuying out of the corner of her eye, and the complaint on her lips became: "It's really energetic...."
Puff~
Wei Shufen's words made everyone laugh.
"Okay, let's help quickly, it's not too early, someone will be here in a while."
When the Qiao family and the Qi family celebrated, Hong Kong Island, which was more than 1,000 kilometers away from Nanjing.
The southeast corner of the thirteenth floor of an office building in Kowloon, Achievement Co., Ltd.
There was no one in the lively pantry in the past, and everyone sat honestly in their office seats, playing the role of a good employee.
The office hall was so quiet that only the sound of computers and the clicking of keyboards were the sound of computers.
Quieter than the office hall is the deepest part of the office.
In the office, He Tian sat on the sofa, flipping through the documents in front of him, and on his right hand side, a man in a suit and leather shoes who looked like a business elite was standing there.
On his left-hand side, lawyer Li, who is in his early forties and facing the crisis of mid-life hair loss, quietly sipps coffee.
The documents are very thick, and there is no lack of dense data, and He Tian looked at it very patiently and carefully.
In addition to being a copyist in recent years, another thing he has mainly done is to make some inventions with knowledge and experience beyond this era.
The main areas are in biology and pharmacy.
At first, he just habitually wanted to make money, but then he slowly fell in love with it, and it felt quite good to soak in the laboratory.
He has registered several companies on Hong Kong Island, and now this one is mainly dealing with his patents, and others such as the entertainment direction, mainly dealing with the songs and scripts he wrote.
After a long time, He Tiancai closed the documents, put them aside, and smiled at the people standing: "The company is running well, it's hard." Inform the finance that everyone will be paid an extra month's salary this month as a bonus for everyone. As for you, keep it up and look forward to it when the bonus is paid at the end of the year. “
"Thank you boss!" In the past, the majestic and graceful man in front of his subordinates showed a relieved smile, reached out and secretly wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, and thanked him again and again.
I don't know why, he is very nervous every time he faces Mr. Qiao, obviously he is only an eighteen-year-old boy, but the other party's calm and waveless eyes can make his heart burst out.
"Sit down." He Tian motioned for him to sit down, turned his head to the left and asked, "Lawyer Li, how is Jielikang over there?" ”
Lawyer Li put down the coffee in his hand and said confidently: "I have already checked the contract, and the terms are all negotiated before, and there are no pitfalls." In front of Mr. Qiao, they didn't dare to do anything. Mr. Qiao has exclusive technology in his hands, and he wants more than one of them. ”
He Tian nodded with satisfaction: "Since there is no problem, let's make an appointment with them in the next two days to sign the contract." It's not convenient for me to come here now, so I'll try to schedule everything in these days as much as possible, and I'll have other arrangements after that. ”
"No problem, when I heard that Mr. Qiao was coming, the people from the British head office couldn't wait to fly over. For this cooperation, they are more anxious than we do. ”
"That's too. By the way, I'm going to go to the capital to go to university in the second half of the year, how is the office I asked you to set up there before? ”
"The venue and personnel have been arranged, just some experimental equipment, and you still need to see it yourself, boss."
"Okay, I'll make a list for you later, you can just prepare according to the list. I'm going to have to trouble you with the relevant procedures. ”
"No problem, boss."
"That's right." He Tian remembered something, took out a few pieces of paper from his pocket, and handed them to the man: "There is also a list here, which are all gifts I want to bring to my family." You can find a few people to buy it for me. ”
Fortunately, I remembered it, otherwise it would be better for others to say that Qiao Simei would be difficult to do.
The man respectfully accepted it.
......
He Tian returned from Hong Kong Island and brought a lot of gifts, but the Qiao family was very happy.
But bigger surprises are yet to come.
Beijing West Road, the Yihe Mansion District, towering honey locusts are erected on both sides of the road, and the sunlight is broken into large or small patches by the branches and leaves, sprinkled on the buildings with the characteristics of the Republic of China.
The blue and black door is pushed open, and what catches your eye is a small two-story building with a cement yellow exterior wall, the green tile roof is elegant, and there is a small garden in front of the building.
"Big brother.... Am I dreaming that this is where we will be from now on? Qiao Simei looked at everything in front of her in a daze.
He Tian only felt funny and rewarded her with a critical blow on the head.
"Ahh Pain! The familiar movements, the familiar feelings, made Qiao Simei confirm that she was not dreaming.
Not a dream!
One second she was still covering her head, and the next second Qiao Simei spread her arms and rushed in with her eyes glowing.
Qiao Erqiang followed closely and also rushed in: "Simei, you wait for me!" ”
Qiao Sanli didn't move, but she also looked at He Tian with the same bright eyes.
He Tianxia raised his chin slightly: "Go, this will be our home in the future." ”
"Hmm!" Qiao Sanli nodded fiercely, leaving behind a laugh like a silver bell, and trotted in.
Qiao Zuwang's heart was so beautiful that he was a little weak in his feet, and Wei Shuying hurriedly supported him.
He Tian stayed behind and watched the people move Qiao's luggage inside.
A shadow came from far and near, and the girl looked sideways curiously when she passed by He Tian's side.
The body is long and straight, and the short black hair is soft and natural, like a splashed ink landscape.
The angular face has a pair of bright and deep eyes, with an inexplicable attraction, which makes people fall into it at a glance.
The cool summer breeze wrinkled the corner of the white shirt and unbuttoned the neckline, revealing the outline of the collarbone.
The youthfulness and immaturity of a teenager and the calmness and heaviness of an adult are wonderfully blended in him.
The girl felt like something soft somewhere inside her had been hit hard.
She suddenly understood the meaning of a word.
Exciting!
He Tian was very sensitive to the line of sight, and the girl saw He Tian turning her head in a panic and turned her head to the other side.
The little heart was pounding, not daring to look back, the girl accelerated forward, her feet were a little unlucky, nervous and trembling slightly, uncontrollable.
Fortunately, the next house was her home, and when she turned left into her yard, she slammed against the wall, took a few deep breaths, and soothed her heart that was about to jump out.
When she changed her shoes and entered the house, the girl smelled the smell of food.
"The South is back? Quickly put things down and eat. ”
"Oh, good."
At the dinner table, the girl was still thinking about what had just happened, a little absent-minded, and she didn't know what to eat.
"Sister, why don't you just eat and don't eat vegetables, your appetite is not very good today?" Xiang Beifang, who had been observing on the opposite side for a while, asked curiously.
"No, I'm not eating, am I?" The girl covered her panic with a smile and reached out to grab the chopsticks and vegetables.
"Oh." Xiang Beifang didn't doubt him, so he changed the subject: "Dad, Mom, is there someone moving next door?" I just saw on the balcony on the second floor that there seemed to be someone next door. ”
"Well, I just asked Aunt Wu to ask, the surname of the person who moved here is Qiao, a pair of parents with five little ones, and the others are nothing, as far as the boss of their family is concerned, you should have heard of it." Xiang's mother replied, and her tone was a little strangely happy.
"Who?" Xiang Beifang asked.
No one noticed the girl's quietly pricked up little ears.
"Qiao Yicheng."
"It's him!"
Of course, Xiang Beifang knew Qiao Yicheng, this was the hottest teenager in the entire Nanjing City this summer.
He almost vomited at the red celebration banner.
Qiao Yicheng! The girl silently pronounced the name in her heart.
Xiang Mu nodded, paused, and suddenly read a sentence in a reciting tone:
"The end of logic is not the ideal country of reason and order, but the love that I dedicate my life to."
This quote is from "The Devotion of Suspect X".
This book, published last year, has become popular all over the country in just one month, earning I don't know how many women's tears.
Xiang Mu watched it over and over again no less than ten times.
The girl also saw tears in the room, and her eyes were red and swollen for two days.
But...
Mom, why do you suddenly say such a sentence when you're fine?
The girl looked up sharply, and she remembered!
As reported in the newspaper a while ago, the author of this book, Qiao Mu, seems to have his real name Li Yicheng!
Like the spring rain that sneaks into the night with the wind, silently, the figure of the young man is imprinted deeper in Xiang Nannan's heart.
The next morning, while having breakfast, Xiang's mother and Xiang's father discussed whether to give some gifts as a housewarming and visit the new neighbor next door.
The neighborhood relationship in these years is far closer than that of later generations, but Xiang's father and Xiang's mother have been sleeping together for many years, so they naturally know what Xiang's mother has in her heart.
In the name of visiting a neighbor, I actually wanted to see the boy who wrote a book.
Before going to bed last night, he saw her flipping through the book "The Devotion of Suspect X" again.
Sometimes he really doesn't understand what women are thinking in their heads, these things of love and love, as for being so concerned?
However, he didn't stop it, not because he was afraid of punishment and kneeling, but he was also a little curious about the young man next door.
The top student in the college entrance examination and a well-known writer, these two identities are very eye-catching when taken apart separately, let alone combined.
Out of the corner of his eye, Xiang's father glanced at his son who was immersed in eating, and he was more angry than others.
Compared with the one next door, this son's biggest advantage is that he has a good tire.
Xiang's father pinched his chin, why don't you find a time to go next door to get the parenting scripture?
I didn't know that Xiang Beifang, who was disgusted by his father once, went out after eating, and Xiang Nanfang also made an appointment with the little sister in the morning, and he should go out after eating.
But she had forgotten all about her little sister.
Carrying the carefully selected fruits, Xiang Nannan watched Xiang Mu knock on the door next door with apprehension and anticipation.
The moment the door opened, Xiang Nannan's heart was raised to his throat.
A quarter of an hour later, the heart fell to the ground and shattered into slag.
"My eldest brother, he has already left, saying that he wants to go to the capital in advance to prepare some things, and we just sent him back from the train station."
