47. Come home with me
After two days in Kyoto, Xia Qing and I separately visited some people in the investment circle, some of whom were Xia Qing's acquaintances, and two of them were friends who were introduced to the expedition.
In three days, we have gained a lot, and we have not only finalized the investment in MOTI's new drama, but also successfully let the Kyoto capital circle know that there is a sunny day investment.
You must know that in the whole of China, investment from Kyoto accounts for almost half of the country, and this trip can be regarded as a trip to the pier that we invested in on a sunny day.
After finishing things, Xia Qing asked me about the next arrangements, I thought that I hadn't been back to my hometown for more than a year, so I discussed with Xia Qing if I could take two days off and go back home.
"Oh, forgot, your home isn't far from Kyoto." Xia Qing smiled.
"I didn't go home last year because I was busy with work, and this year I just sent some money home, and this time I want to go back and see." I thought to myself, last year, when I was busy with work, I was simply poor and didn't dare to go home.
After winning the lottery last time, I sent some money to my family, and I've been busy since then, and this time I thought I could go home for a few days.
"Yes, but I have one condition!" Xia Qing smiled slyly.
"What conditions? It's not like you're going to have to deduct your salary, right? I jokingly said.
"What kind of salary? You're the boss now, okay, Mr. Gao! ”
"Then what are the conditions? I promise not to delay the company's affairs. ”
"Can you take me with you? I was depressed in Dragon City some time ago, and I just happened to follow you to relax! Xia Qing said.
"Hey, I thought it was? No problem! As long as you don't bother, you're not afraid of our small place being dirty and messy! I simply agreed, and suddenly there was a little bit of beauty in my heart, bring a big beauty home? It's cool to think about!
It's just that how to introduce it to your family when the time comes? Say it's a colleague? Boss? Still is......?
"What do you think? Smile so much that your mouth is crooked! Xia Qing looked at me suspiciously and asked.
"Nothing! Nothing! Then I'll book a ticket! I hurriedly replied.
From Kyoto to our hometown of Gaojiazhen, the straight-line distance is less than 1,000 kilometers, but it takes nearly a day.
We first caught a plane from Kyoto Airport to the provincial capital, and then a bus from the provincial capital to Linshi. A few hours of car rides followed by a two-hour ride on a diesel-burning tractor to get to our town.
Departing from Kyoto in the morning, it was getting dark when we arrived in Gaojia Town!
"You're far away from home!" Xia Qing, who was upside down, got off the tractor, patted the ash on her body and complained.
"Yes, we are poor here, and you are not afraid that I will sell you?" I said with a smile.
"You dare?!" Xia Qing glared at me and said.
"Don't say it, we really had a lot of people from the city who were abducted and trafficked here before, and the old bachelors in our village like you have fine skin and tender meat!"
"You're talking about decades ago, but now it's a society governed by the rule of law!" Xia Qing said as she looked around, as if she was really scared by me.
Seeing me smiling cheaply, Xia Qing, who had just looked a little nervous, relaxed a little, and said with a smile: "Don't say it, the air in your hometown is still good, and the scenery is good, look, the sun is about to set!" ”
Looking in the direction of Xia Qing's finger, the red sun was slanting into the rolling mountains in the distance, the dark slopes were reflected red by the setting sun, and the tired birds were chirping and flying overhead, flying into the woods not far away.
"Let's go! Let's see who in our town is short of daughters-in-law? I'm going to sell you! I said as I took Xia Qing's arm and walked home.
Caught off guard, I felt a sharp pain in the inside of my arm, Xia Qingzheng pinched me, gritted his teeth and said, "The young man is capable?" Yes? ”
"It hurts...... Hurt...... Hurt...... Please let it go!! "I cried out in pain, thinking that this dead girl was too ruthless, right? Isn't it just a joke! I want to pinch your "husband" to death!
Alas, it's better to be Feng Yasong! Feng Yasong will definitely not be as ruthless as Xia Qing!
While we were playing, an old voice came from behind the haystack in the distance: "Is it Chao Wazi?" ”
Xia Qing hurriedly shook off my arm, I raised my eyes and looked over, that wasn't the second uncle next door to us!
"Second uncle, it's me! I'm Chaowazi! ”
"It's really a baby! I haven't seen you for a year, but I've grown stronger! The second uncle pulled the second aunt out from behind the haystack, and the two of them saw the pretty Xia Qing standing next to me, and asked with surprise on their faces: "Chao Wazi, is this ...... Who's in the city? ”
Xia Qing didn't understand what we said in her hometown, so she only had a smile on her face, and she didn't know what to say. I hurriedly waved my hand and denied: "No, no, it's just a friend!" ”
"Hey, this little rabbit, are you still embarrassed? You see that you are as big as you, which one is not the same object, and after staying in this city for two years, why did you become a big girl? Hey, what do you say you're doing on the road? Hurry home! Your mom and dad don't know you're coming back, do they? I'll go talk about it first! ”
After the second aunt finished speaking, she patted the ashes on her body, and trotted all the way back to the village.
Don't look at the second aunt who is also in her sixties, but she feels that her skills are better than mine, Xia Qing muttered in my ear: "It seems that the aunt in your village is stronger than those square dance aunts in our Dragon City!" ”
I smiled and nodded yes! In the village, unlike in the city, people still can't be idle when they get old!
It is also the second aunt's big voice, and when I walked for a few minutes to the door of the house, almost half of the people in the village flocked to our door, and the aunt, uncle and half-grown children were all smiling and waiting at the door to see the "new daughter-in-law".
I think it's a big misunderstanding! I thought I could quietly drip into the village, don't shoot guns! After watching my parents stay for two days and leave, I didn't expect it to become a big event in our village!
You must know that in a small place in our village, if you sneeze at the entrance of the village, everyone at the end of the village will catch a cold. If there is something new in the village, all the young and old in the village will come to see the excitement.
Fortunately, Xia Qing also brought some candy and the like when she was catching a car in the provincial capital, otherwise she would be embarrassed to run back empty-handed.
On the other hand, my face was flustered, but Xia Qing's face was much calmer, and everyone was smiling. Do you really think of yourself as a little daughter-in-law?
After finally squeezing past the neighbors on the third floor and the outer three floors, after entering the house and sitting down, my mother looked at me with a smile on her face, and then looked at Xia Qing who was sitting next to me.
"Why don't you say hello when you go home? Look at the mess in this house! My mother said complainingly, looking at Xia Qing and said, "...... this girl?" ”
"Oh, Auntie, my name is Xia Qing, I am a friend of Gao Chao, you can call me Xiao Xia!" Summer replied neatly.
"Ahh Natsu-chan! "My mom was so happy that she didn't know what to say, so she asked me to take care of Xia Qing and go to the kitchen to cook.
My dad was outside greeting the neighbors, and I felt that my dad was louder than ever, and even though we didn't talk very much, I felt that he was still proud today.
I don't know if it's because I'm proud or because I've brought back a beautiful girl. My dad must have thought I was bringing back my future daughter-in-law, right?
The commotion outside finally dispersed, and my mother quickly made a table of dishes and beckoned me and Xia Qing to sit down.
"You said this kid, come back and say hello, let's get ready." My mother complained while beckoning Xia Qing to sit down and eat.
"I didn't want to come back, isn't this a business trip!" While holding the dishes, I said, I haven't eaten my mother's food for a long time, and I'm afraid of my food.
"You child, why are you eating for yourself? Greet Xiao Xia to eat too! Xiaoxia, you're welcome! There's nothing good to eat at home! Eat more! "My mom hurriedly put the vegetables in the summer bowl.
Xia Qing said thank you while taking a small bite, and while eating, she couldn't stop praising my mother's craftsmanship: "Auntie's cooking is so delicious!" ”
"Haha, I'll eat! I don't know if it's to your taste! My mom said with a little embarrassed smile.
I was a little worried that Xia Qing would not be used to eating food from our hometown, but seeing the sweetness of Xia Qing's food, I was relieved.
"Chao Wazi, didn't you sell houses before? Need to travel to sell your house? My dad interjected.
"I forgot to tell you, I just changed jobs, and now I don't sell my house." I said.
"Huh? Okay, why change jobs? So what are you all about now? My dad asked, puzzled.
"Now it's an investment." After I finished speaking, I regretted it a little, because selling a house is relatively simple, and investing is a troublesome thing to explain.
"Investment? It can't be a loan shark, right? It can't be a crooked way! Last year, many people in our village were deceived, saying that they were going to invest, but the coffin book was deceived! I'll tell you, if you dare to engage in those crooked ways, be careful that I break your legs! My dad said angrily.
"Not what you think! Rest assured! "I kind of regret what investment I just gave my dad, but the water that was spilled out of the words can't be recovered!
As expected, my father really asked for a while, and finally reassured my father that I was not a loan shark, nor was I cheating people out of money, nor was I engaging in pyramid schemes.
My mouth is dry and my mouth is enough!
"It's useless, old man, to say anything! It's rare for my son to come back once, come, eat vegetables! Xiao Xia, eat more! Look at your skinny! "My mother interrupted my father's rambling and beckoned me and Xia Qing to eat, and my mother was always worried that her son would not have enough to eat outside.
Eat and drink enough, and it will be dark. My mother tidied up the guest room for the summer sunshine, saying that it was the guest room, but it was actually my former study.
My mother whispered to Xia Qing what kind of work she did while opening up her face, and I said a few times that she was a colleague and a friend, but my mother didn't believe it.
Actually, I don't even believe what I said, if it's an ordinary friend, why would people follow you all the way back to your hometown?
It seems that Xia Qing is really interesting to me, and I can't help but feel good when I think about it like this. Being able to marry such a beautiful daughter-in-law home is also the smoke coming out of the ancestral grave of our old Gao family!
