I really caught up today, Liu Xinyu couldn't get off work and go home on time.

Not long after Xiao Yang left, Secretary Yang hurriedly came to Liu Xinyu's office with an English document: "Dr. Liu, this is the information I just received, the leader may need to use it at night, please translate it." ”

After taking the information, Liu Xinyu took a rough look at it and breathed a sigh of relief.

This is a fax in English, and the amount is not much, so you should be able to get it done in an hour.

Liu Xinyu raised his hand and looked at his watch, it was already a quarter past five, and it seemed that he couldn't get off work on time today.

Zhang Hongliang has been away for less than half an hour, and it is impossible to return home so soon, so let's work first.

Liu Xinyu quickly immersed herself in her work, first translating literally, and then meticulously crafting word by word.

Finally completed the translation of the fax, Liu Xinyu took the blank paper and prepared to transcribe, looked up at the window, found that it was already dark, remembered the previous agreement with Zhang Hongliang, and hurriedly picked up the phone to call Zhang Hongliang.

The phone was quickly connected, and Zhang Hongliang's gentle voice came from the other side: "Is it Xinyu?" Still working overtime? ”

There were other people working overtime in the building, and Liu Xinyu lowered his voice and said, "Yes, it will take about half an hour to get off work." If Boss Xiao comes, you can talk to him first and see if you can push the price to less than 60,000. ”

"Okay, I'll talk to Mr. Xiao first, don't worry, don't drive fast." Zhang Hongliang did not refuse, very readily, agreed that he would bargain with Xiao Zhengqing first, and before hanging up the phone, he specially told Liu Xinyu to pay attention to driving safety.

When Liu Xinyu arrived at Nanjie Hutong, it was almost half past eight.

It was a little later than she expected, because the senior leaders of the ministry were not sure if there would be new faxes to be translated, so they kept her for more than half an hour until they were sure that there were no other faxes that needed to be translated.

"Have you ever had dinner?" Hearing the sound outside, Zhang Hongliang, who was chatting with Xiao Zhengqing, hurriedly came out to greet him, and asked with concern while reaching out to take the bag that Liu Xinyu was carrying.

I must have had dinner at this time.

There are quite a lot of people working overtime in the ministry today, and most of them are leaders and their secretaries, so it is definitely impossible to go hungry.

It's just that the food in the cafeteria is really a little unsuitable for Liu Xinyu, so I ate half a bowl of noodles and drank some noodle soup.

Although Liu Xinyu nodded, Zhang Hongliang still guessed from her expression that she must not have eaten enough.

Chicken soup is still warm on the small stove in the kitchen.

As long as she lives in the chicken soup, she has a small handful of dried rice noodles brought by Yang Songlin from her hometown, and a few small green vegetables, which is Liu Xinyu's favorite, and she can eat a big bowl beautifully.

"Boss Xiao is still sitting in the house, and after talking with him for a long time, he is only willing to drop five thousand." Zhang Hongliang walked to the hall with Liu Xinyu, and whispered to Liu Xinyu and Xiao Zhengqing the result of the bargain with Liu Xinyu with some embarrassment, and stopped when he was about to reach the hall and said, "You go in first to talk to him, and I will go to the kitchen to give you a bowl of noodles." ”

I heard that there is powder to eat, although she hasn't eaten it yet, Liu Xinyu is already so happy that her eyebrows and eyes are crooked.

was about to go to the hall with his feet raised, and suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen Liu Xinjian at this time, so he couldn't help but stop again and turned to Zhang Hongliang and asked, "Has Xinjian not come back from Changchun Garden yet, or has he returned directly to Beihu Hutong?" ”

Zhang Hongliang shook his head and said, "I haven't seen him today, and I haven't received a call from him, so I'm probably still busy in Changchun Garden." ”

The business of Xiyangyang Restaurant is getting better and better day by day, often the lobby and private rooms are already full, and there are constantly customers coming to the door outside, except that the restaurant is a little cramped, and the labor inside and outside is obviously a little stretched.

Liu Xinjian was left by Chen Zhaodi to help in the restaurant today.

Seeing that the restaurant was not big enough, it couldn't fit more tables, couldn't do more business, and saw that the money in hand couldn't be earned, Chen Zhaodi was so anxious that she asked Liu Xinjian to bring a message to Liu Xinyu more than once, hoping to expand the business area of the restaurant.

It is not difficult to expand the business area of the restaurant, after all, the scale of the Xinyu children's clothing factory is not enough to fill the entire courtyard.

As long as the back cover room is vacated and slightly renovated, it can be put into use, but now that there is the façade building on West Street, Liu Xinyu temporarily suppressed this idea.

West Street is not too far from Changchun Garden, many of the diners of Xiyangyang Restaurant come from admiration, if you can take the façade building of West Street and open a more magnificent hotel, those more particular diners will definitely be more willing to go to West Street for dinner.

The two were talking, and Xiao Zhengqing, who was sitting alone in the hall, couldn't sit still, and came out of the hall and stood in front of the door looking at Liu Xinyu.

was looked at by Xiao Zhengqing like this, even if the two of them didn't say anything private, it was not good to snub the guests again, so Liu Xinyu said to Zhang Hongliang: "Brother Hong Liang, give me more small vegetables, the unit canteen still only has radishes and Chinese cabbage." ”

"Okay, you can talk to Boss Xiao first, and it will be fine right away!" Zhang Hongliang waved his hand at Liu Xinyu, turned around and went into the kitchen.

Liu Xinyu also entered the hall with Xiao Zhengqing, but as soon as he sat down, before he could speak, he heard Liu Xinjian's voice outside: "Brother-in-law, is my sister here?" ”

Liu Xinyu raised her hand to stroke her forehead, and scolded Liu Xinjian in her heart, worried that this kid would still talk nonsense, so she quickly stood up and walked to the door of the hall and glared at Liu Xinjian and said, "I'm here, you just came back from the restaurant?" ”

Liu Xinjian didn't know that Liu Xinyu was here, he came directly from the restaurant, and he hadn't returned to Beihu Hutong yet.

Usually, Liu Xinyu goes back to Beihu Hutong directly after work to draw her design draft, but I didn't expect Liu Xinyu to be in Nanjie Hutong today.

If he knew that Liu Xinyu was here, he wouldn't have the courage to call Zhang Hongliang's brother-in-law now.

Although Zhang Hongliang and Liu Xinyu's wedding date has been set, speaking of which, Zhang Hongliang is already a definite brother-in-law, but he hasn't gotten the money yet, and now he calls his brother-in-law a bit of a loss, and he doesn't know if Liu Xinyu will be angry.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Hongliang didn't respond, but summoned Liu Xinyu out, and was glared at fiercely.

After Liu Xinjian was slightly stunned, he touched his head and grinned, pretending that he hadn't called "brother-in-law", and only replied to Liu Xinyu's inquiry: "I just came back from the restaurant, and I want to come over to see if the car is there, and I will use the car tomorrow morning." ”

Liu Xinyu nodded, pointed to the kitchen and said, "Brother Hong Liang is making powder in the kitchen, if you want to eat, it's too late to go!" ”

In fact, Liu Xinjian smelled the aroma of chicken soup when he entered the yard, although he had dinner in the restaurant, but if it was chicken soup powder, he could still eat a big bowl.

After listening to Liu Xinyu's words, he turned his head and went straight to the kitchen without saying a word.

"I'm really sorry, I happened to have an extra shift today, so I kept you waiting." Finally able to sit down quietly and talk to Xiao Zhengqing about the façade building, Liu Xinyu first said sorry to Xiao Zhengqing.
