"Elder Wang, what you say is really scary."

Ji Yuanhai smiled: "What kind of account do you want to settle with me?" ”

Wang Lao pointed to the Songmei orchid: "The branches and leaves are slender, if you increase one point, you will be too fat, and if you lose one point, you will be too thin, slim and slim, Xiao Ji, this is all your credit." ”

"You've already paid me, Elder Wang." Ji Yuanhai reminded.

"Yes, I paid you for three months." Elder Wang said, "But now that the three months have arrived, you have given me a perfect baby." ”

"Next, we have to have an explanation for how to settle the score."

Ji Yuanhai pondered: "You mean, I will visit your flowers and plants every once in a while in the future, and it will be counted as my labor?" ”

"Or else? You've helped me for nothing, huh? Wang Lao glared and asked.

"Let's talk about this ...... again," Ji Yuanhai said.

Wang Lao said: "Okay, if you just talk about friendship and don't talk about remuneration, then wait for the Chinese New Year to visit me." ”

"I'll pay for my own money and find a gardener and gardener to take care of the flowers and plants for me, okay?"

Ji Yuanhai smiled: "I know what you mean, Elder Wang. ”

"I'll wait for the Chinese New Year to visit you."

"Anyway, you can grow flowers and plants yourself, so I won't bother you usually."

This time he got off the donkey downhill, which made Wang Lao completely unexpected: "Xiao Ji, you!" ”

"I mean, Xiao Ji, you can't always run away like this, I have to pay you, but I don't drive you away and don't let you come!"

"But your current flowers and plants are indeed no problem, and you can grow flowers and plants yourself, how can I collect your money again?" Ji Yuanhai said, "In the future, we will continue to come and go, and the friendship is also there. ”

"I also have to study to prepare for the college entrance examination, and the time is also urgent, so I won't be so diligent in the future."

Wang Lao was stunned for a moment, knowing that it was impossible for him to prepare a new reward, but it made him notice that the flowers and plants did not need to be taken care of, and the number of contacts was reduced, and he was inevitably reluctant in his heart, and muttered in a low voice: "Prepare for a fart!" ”

Xiaoyun said that this kid will be able to go to college if he takes the college entrance examination, and this is used to prevaricate me.

Wang Lao was a little sullen.

Grandma Yuan listened to it, and also persuaded Ji Yuanhai to say two sentences; Ji Yuanhai smiled and asked her to look at the flowers and plants that were growing well, saying that he really didn't need himself here.

Grandma Yuan was about to say something more, but suddenly raised her eyes and said happily: "Old man, Wenbo is here!" ”

Wang Lao subconsciously stood up and looked out, and saw a middle-aged man with a dignified face enter the courtyard door through the window, and sat down with a cold snort.

"He'll come, he'll still need to inform me?"

"I'm here, he doesn't come when he wants to, he can leave if he wants!"

Ji Yuanhai hurriedly stood up.

The middle-aged man full of majesty walked in from the courtyard gate, and when he arrived at the door of the house, his expression softened when he saw Grandma Yuan: "Mom." ”

"Hey! Come inside! Have you eaten? Shall I make you something of your favourite? ”

Grandma Yuan said happily.

"Don't bother you, Mom, I've already eaten." After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he looked at Elder Wang again, and his back immediately straightened involuntarily, "Dad." ”

"Oh? Isn't this the deputy department of the Qingshan County Organization Department? Why do you have time to see my little old man? ”

"Dad...... You-" Wang Wenbo suddenly looked embarrassed.

"Am I like this?" Wang Lao rarely gets angry, but at the moment he has a calm face, and he is not angry at all.

"Aren't you laughing at me when you say this?" Wang Wenbo said embarrassedly.

"Do you know it's a joke about you?" Wang Lao pointed at him, "Xiaoyun changed to a bicycle, you have been holding her breath for a year!" You're so majestic, huh? Playing tricks with children at home? ”

"You don't like my flowers and plants, you don't like them, you come and go, you smash them all for me, and take away all my pension, so as not to delay the good reputation of your deputy minister!"

"We don't know how you're so imposing! I use your mother's pension normally, but it also delays you, and the child changes to a bicycle, which also delays you! ”

"I think you're on the rise, it's amazing! What kind of high-ranking official are you now? ”

This call, with anger, became louder and louder.

Mr. Wang involuntarily stood up as he spoke, pointing at Wang Wenbo.

Wang Wenbo lowered his head and said nothing.

After finishing speaking, Mr. Wang sat down again, snorting and panting.

"Dad, you are ...... dissipated," Wang Wenbo said.

"I'm deflated, am I dissipated?" Wang Lao shouted angrily, "It's been more than ten years, you are self-righteous, you don't listen to what I say, and you still think you're flying when you do some things!" ”

"Now, your road is broken, and you are starting to care about your reputation again!"

"It's late, do you know it's late!"

Wang Wenbo lowered his head and was silent again.

Wang Lao reprimanded him, but he didn't like it, and went back to the house angrily.

Grandma Yuan sighed on the side: "Tell me about the two of you, as long as you meet, it will be like a mouse meeting a cat, and there will be no time for peace." ”

"How can it be good if it goes on like this?"

"I'll go and persuade the old man, don't go, stay here for dinner at noon today."

Wang Wenbo was obviously not happy to be reprimanded: "Mom, I won't stay, I will make my father angry." ”

"There's something else waiting for me, so I'll go first."

"You kid—" Grandma Yuan was disappointed, and wanted to say something but didn't say anything.

Wang Wenbo was about to leave, and at this moment, Mr. Wang walked out quickly: "Let's go, don't come after you leave!" ”

Wang Wenbo suddenly couldn't move on the spot: "Dad, are you ...... Don't be angry, okay? ”

The more Ji Yuanhai looks, the more he can't see it, if he could say goodbye earlier, he wouldn't have to look at this kind of housework.

It's a pity that I can't go now.

After a closer look, Ji Yuanhai took a step forward and grabbed Mr. Wang's hand: "Elder Wang, don't be angry!" ”

"These hands are trembling, why bother? Let's go with the flow first. ”

When Grandma Yuan and Wang Wenbo heard this, they all noticed that Mr. Wang was already angry, and hurriedly stepped forward.

Wang Wenbo grabbed Mr. Wang's other arm, helped him sit down with Ji Yuanhai, and said with red eyes while slowly patting his back: "Dad, I know I'm wrong, but you can't be angry like this because of me." ”

"You really can't do it, it's okay to hit me twice and scold me twice."

"I get angry when I think about it." Mr. Wang gasped and said, "I scolded you twice, I scolded you just now, why did you run?" Is it still useful for me to scold you when you run away? ”

Wang Wenbo was helpless: "Okay, okay, you scold now, I don't run, I'll listen." ”

"You dead old man is strong!" Grandma Yuan scolded Mr. Wang on the side, "Raising flowers and grass, I almost gave my life because of a pot of flowers, if it weren't for Xiao Ji, you would be finished!" ”

"It's the same with your son now, what kind of hurdle do you two can't get over!"

Wang Wenbo admitted his mistake and scolded, and his wife also said that Mr. Wang's mood was much more stable, but he didn't scold anymore.

Because of his emotional stability, he gradually realized that he was excited just now, and said something that he shouldn't have said in front of Ji Yuanhai, an outsider.

Mr. Wang smiled at Ji Yuanhai: "Xiao Ji, it made you laugh." ”

Ji Yuanhai said: "What's so ridiculous about this? ”

"Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and my family is also not harmonious, which is even more difficult to talk about. Elder Wang, you don't have to take it to heart, some things will always pass. ”

Wang Lao smiled: "Xiao Ji, you are transparent." ”

and introduced to Wang Wenbo and Ji Yuanhai: "This is Xiao Ji, my Song Mei was saved by him." ”

"This is my unsuccessful son, called Wang Wenbo, he likes to play prestige, you can just call him Brother Wang."

Ji Yuanhai hesitated.

Wang Wenbo noticed this small detail of him, and said in his heart that he was quite sensible, and knew that he couldn't shout nonsense.

But since he was in front of the old man, of course, he coaxed him to be happy, and said with a smile: "Xiao Ji, my father said so, you call me Brother Wang." ”

Ji Yuanhai immediately nodded: "Hey, Brother Wang, hello." ”

"I am a member of the production team of the Gushan Commune, and I also came to the city by chance, and something happened to happen to Song Mei who met Wang Lao."

"Seriously, Elder Wang is really kind to me."

"Xiao Ji, if you say this again, I'll be angry." Wang Lao said, "The two of us are friends who have forgotten the year, friends in the flowers and plants. ”

Ji Yuanhai added: "You are definitely still my mentor and friend, and I have been instructed by you more than once. ”

Wang Lao suddenly grinned: "Yes, yes, that's it, hahaha......"

Wang Wenbo looked at this scene and secretly thought to himself.

For me, I was so angry; For this Xiao Ji who can raise flowers, he smiled happily, who is your son?

But then Wang Wenbo also noticed that Ji Yuanhai, a small Ji, is really not an ordinary rural member and an ordinary flower planter.

He has a very high level of education, and his speech follows the dialogue between himself and his father, and sometimes he can even say idioms in his mouth, and they are all just right, which is a bit of a witty meaning.

This man...... Someone must have set it up, right?

Don't say it's a rural member, you say that he graduated from college, and I believe it.

Wang Wenbo quietly inquired about Ji Yuanhai's situation, learned that he was educated in elementary school, self-taught, preparing for next year's college entrance examination, and met Wang Zhuyun again, borrowed books, and was a little suspicious that he wanted to touch his daughter.

Later, when I asked, he was not, he had already married a female intellectual, and both of them were preparing to take the university entrance examination.

Wang Wenbo felt a little confused: is he really an ordinary member of the production team, self-taught, with such vision and knowledge?

That's genius, isn't it?

Wang Wenbo stayed for lunch, Wang Lao didn't look very welcome, and muttered a few words, in fact, the mood blossomed.

Even Ji Yuanhai smiled and brought up the matter of not helping him take care of the flowers and plants from time to time, no longer disappointed, and asked Ji Yuanhai if his life would be difficult in the future.

Wang Wenbo listened to the specific details quietly, and when he heard the words "Director Bai" coldly, he suddenly paused his chopsticks and blurted out: "Bai Shouyan? Why is he still there? ”

Seeing him like this, Wang Lao was a little patient and told Wang Wenbo about the cause and effect of the matter.

Wang Wenbo nodded, thinking about it while eating.

This matter, should you be hello, me, hello, everyone?

Or is it ......

"If you really have any skills and ideas, discuss it with Xiao Ji first."

"This is Xiao Ji's food and clothing, you can't smash people's jobs for no reason."

Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, Wang Lao saw Wang Wenbo's appearance, knew that he was weighing some pros and cons at a deeper level, and reminded him.

Wang Wenbo nodded: "Well, I know, Dad." ”

He looked at the sea again.

Ji Yuanhai listened on the side, and when he saw the topic on himself, he said: "Brother Wang, as long as you tell me, I will definitely cooperate if I can cooperate." ”

Wang Wenbo smiled: "It shouldn't be, it shouldn't be." ”

"If there's something going on, let's talk about it."

After eating, Ji Yuanhai resigned from the Wang family and went to the flower shop.

The flowers and plants are growing well, the business is also good, and Gao Daming has a lot of joy on his face.

Liu Xianglan moved things and took care of the flowers and plants according to Ji Yuanhai's requirements, but at other times it was idle, and when she sold flowers, she was sold by Gao Daming.

Ji Yuanhai stayed in this shop for some time and found a place to sit.

Liu Xianglan hurriedly poured hot water for him with an enamel jar and added two rock sugars to it, so that he could drink it comfortably and sweetly.

Ji Yuanhai smiled at her, and Liu Xianglan went to work with joy in her eyebrows.

After taking two sips of water, Ji Yuanhai's gaze was a little empty.

Compared with Wang Lao, Wang Wenbo's utilitarianism is obvious.

There are also some other historical reasons in the past, and Ji Yuanhai has also heard it, which is probably the reason why Wang Lao and Wang Zhuyun have a stiff relationship with him.

It's okay if Wang Wenbo doesn't have any ideas, but once he really has any ideas, Ji Yuanhai will have to be in trouble again.

"Gao Daming!"

A shout came suddenly, and Ji Yuanhai put down the enamel jar and looked outside.

Gao Daming and Liu Xianglan also put down the work in their hands and looked out.

Five or six young people with crooked heads and heads came to the front of the flower shop with a pot of flowers.

"What the hell did you sell to Lao Tzu!"

"In less than three days, the flower withered!"

In the first two sentences, Ji Yuanhai, Gao Daming, and Liu Xianglan all understood, this is something to do!

Because of a pot of flowers, so five or six young people and street slickers came to find trouble? The problem is obviously not with this potted flower.

Gao Daming smiled dryly and walked out: "Isn't this the founding brother?" Brother Jianguo, what's the matter with you? Why is it so angry? ”

"You don't understand?" The young man in the lead exclaimed, "I bought flowers from this shop, and in less than three days they died!" ”

"Gao Daming, you say, what should we do about this matter!"

Gao Daming asked: "Brother Jianguo, what kind of flowers did you say you bought?" I'll pay you a pot of the same at the original price, what do you think? ”

"Not good! What if you lose money and it withers again? "Besides," exclaimed the young man, "are the brothers here for a pot of flowers?" ”

"It's because you don't know how to raise flowers and grass, and the flowers you sell me are shoddy, I can't swallow this breath, so I'm here!"

"Now it's not a matter of a pot of flowers, we brothers are here just to breathe this breath!"

Gao Daming gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, Brother Jianguo, if you want to take this breath, I will let you take this breath." ”

"Take back all the money you sell flowers, and I will compensate you again, if you have flowers and plants you like, just take them home."

"So, it's all right?"

The young man named Jianguo suddenly laughed: "Okay, why can't you, didn't you just say that earlier?" ”

"Bring it!"

stretched out his hand, asked Gao Daming to pay for it, and asked people to pick up two pots of flowers, and left with a smile.

When their group left, Gao Daming and Liu Xianglan began to worry.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like you are giving up, and there must be other troubles behind.

"What can I do now? I have to go to Director Bai and ask......"

Gao Daming said, got on his bicycle and went out, and came back after more than half an hour with a smile on his face.

"Director Bai said that he will look at the situation and solve it soon."

Liu Xianglan put her mind at ease, and Ji Yuanhai also put her mind at ease - maybe this is just to lean against the big tree to enjoy the shade.

Looks like it's going to be fine.

In the evening, when Ji Yuanhai and Liu Xianglan were about to go back, the young man who called Jianguo came to the front of the shop with a little frown.

"Brother Da Ming, I'm sending you money."

"And the flowers and plants, I'll put them outside for you."

Gao Da Mingle smiled: "Okay, okay...... Okay, Brother Jianguo, you go. ”

"Don't be so polite next time!"

When he left, Gao Daming said with emotion: "You said that this is a business, but it is better to sit in the office...... I also felt that Director Bai was a little afraid of people before, and at this critical time, there was really no way without Director Bai. ”

"You didn't ask, who sent the one called Jianguo?" Ji Yuanhai said.

Gao Daming shook his head directly: "I don't feel like I need to ask, it must be the family surnamed Zhao." ”

"That family sells flowers and plants much darker than us, and when I see someone who doesn't know how to do it, it's really messy and indiscriminate. The stars will dare to sell it as a national treasure with you! ”

"I heard that there is also a batch of fake flowers, which are specially designed to deceive people with bad eyes."

"I Gao Daming said that he wouldn't be able to, and his ability is so much, but he won't be so deceitful."

Ji Yuanhai nodded as he listened, and made a note of the Zhao family's flower seller.

If it is not expected, the plastic flowers bought by Wang Zhuyun may also be bought from this Zhao family.

thought that this matter should end here, and Ji Yuanhai and Liu Xianglan also returned to Xiaoshantun.

Unexpectedly, when Liu Xianglan came home the next day, she talked about the flower shop, and her face was full of sorrow.

The people who came to make trouble yesterday came again, and it was the young man named Jianguo who took the lead.

Gao Daming was helpless, and went to find Director Bai again.

This time, Director Bai not only stopped helping, but directly cut off contact with Gao Daming, telling Gao Daming that the flower shop had nothing to do with him, and he should not look for him in the future.

Even the things he coerced and lured Gao Daming at the beginning were revealed, and he made it clear that he would never have any contact with Gao Daming again.

However, Gao Daming was never allowed to mention any "white" character, and the two sides had absolutely nothing to do with each other.

This change, not to mention that Gao Daming and Liu Xianglan don't know what's going on, even Ji Yuanhai can't understand it.

What the hell is going on here?
