Chapter 30 Peach Blossoms Blooming
Memories go back to the past.
Last summer, Xiao Yingchun, who had just graduated from college, suddenly heard the bad news that both his parents had been in a car accident and were in critical condition.
She went home and spent all her savings and borrowed money from relatives, but still died.
After taking care of the funeral, he left the supermarket to his aunt and turned around to go to Haicheng to find a job.
After interviewing at several companies, I joined the company at that time and became a subordinate of Liu Weimin, the marketing director.
Liu Weimin is a typical Phoenix man. He lives in the countryside and has a younger brother who is studying at university. Since he started working, he has to pay for his brother's tuition and his parents' medical expenses.
This directly led to Liu Weimin having no house or car, and still not having a partner to marry at the age of nearly 30.
Liu Weimin worked very hard for this.
To his superiors, Liu Weimin was servile and flattering to the point of being disgusting; but to his subordinates, he exploited and suppressed them and took advantage of them to the fullest.
Many female subordinates have been sexually harassed by Liu Weimin, but Liu Weimin did not want to find them as girlfriends, he just wanted to take advantage of them.
He has high standards when it comes to finding a partner and wants to find a girl who is richer and more capable of making money than himself.
It is said that Liu Weimin once pursued the marketing director of another area of the company, but the other person was outstanding in all aspects and looked down on him.
Liu Weimin also pursued the company's vice president, but the vice president looked down on him.
Xiao Yingchun didn't understand: Why did Liu Weimin, who only cared about money and power, come all the way from Haicheng to confess his love to her?
Does he know that he earns 100 million a day?
This is impossible.
So it must be something else.
Xiao Yingchun thought about it, looked up the WeChat of his former colleague, and asked about Liu Weimin's situation in a tactful way.
My colleagues didn’t know either, they just said that Liu Weimin asked for annual leave from the company a few days ago, saying that he had something to deal with.
If you can't figure it out, just throw it aside. It's not worth bothering with such a person.
As dinner time was approaching, Xiao Yingchun was looking through Meituan to order takeout when Grandpa Zhao suddenly pushed the door and walked in.
"Xiao Yingchun, you haven't had dinner yet, right?"
Xiao Yingchun saw Zhao Jiping and greeted him with a smile: "Grandpa Zhao, not yet, why are you here at this time? Is there no soy sauce or vinegar at home?"
Zhao Jiping smiled and waved his hand: "All. I came here to tell you not to order takeout. I'll bring you food later."
Xiao Yingchun was so shocked that she stood up: "No, no, no! I can eat anything by myself, please don't be polite!"
"How can you be polite? I heard from Xiaoxin today that he and you are doing business together? Then you are one of us."
"It's not good to eat too much takeout. It's hard for me to cook by myself, so I'll just make some extra. You're helping me out!"
Zhao Jiping looked like he would not tolerate any refusal and was about to leave after he finished speaking.
Xiao Yingchun didn't dare to agree: "Really! I've already ordered, garlic shrimp."
Zhao Jiping was stunned: his family only stewed a chicken today and didn't prepare any seafood.
Xiao Yingchun smiled and sent Zhao Jiping out: "Thank you, Grandpa Zhao, I'm alone, sometimes I just eat something and that's it, you don't have to worry about it."
Zhao Jiping smiled with emotion: "Little girl, you have been having a lot of meals. I see you are quite busy recently. How about..."
"I'll bring you some chicken stewed with matsutake mushrooms later. Just treat it as a side dish."
After saying this, Zhao Jiping ran away, fearing that Xiao Yingchun would refuse.
Xiao Yingchun had not originally planned to eat the shrimps, but now, in order to avoid being exposed, she was forced to eat the shrimps.
She ordered a shrimp with garlic sauce and a plate of green vegetables. When Zhao Jiping brought the chicken soup, she had just received a takeaway and was ready to eat. Zhao Jiping had obviously eaten, so he put a full bowl of chicken stewed with matsutake mushrooms on the small table and enthusiastically asked Xiao Yingchun to try it.
Xiao Yingchun smiled awkwardly, thanked him, and at the same time, took a set of bowl and chopsticks for Zhao Jiping and invited him to eat shrimp.
Zhao Jiping did not refuse. After eating two for the sake of politeness, he watched Xiao Yingchun eat with a smile.
The old man looked at his grandson's wife with such loving eyes that Xiao Yingchun felt a little bored.
My family members, who can bear this?
After waiting for Zhao Jiping to leave, Xiao Yingchun immediately sent a message to Dai Hengxin: "What did you say to your grandfather?"
Dai Hengxin: “???”
"He brought me chicken stew with matsutake mushrooms today! Dumb emoji."
Dai Hengxin: "Hahahahahaha... He must have misunderstood and thought you were my girlfriend. Hilarious emoticon package"
Xiao Yingchun almost begged: "Brother, I beg you, can you tell your grandfather not to send me chicken soup?"
"I'm so embarrassed!"
"I have dug out a three-bedroom apartment with my toes!"
“I couldn’t taste the food the whole time!”
Dai Hengxin sent a string of hilarious emojis and finally replied with three words: "No problem."
After a while, he apologized again: "I'm sorry, my grandpa was too enthusiastic and too anxious, which caused you trouble."
Xiao Yingchun: "Forget it, I won't bother with the old man..."
After this incident, Xiao Yingchun no longer had the heart to open the shop, so he simply closed the front door. When he was about to close the back door, he suddenly heard an electronic reminder sound of "Welcome".
She looked up in surprise, only to see a face very close to her.
It turned out to be Fu Chenan who came in!
Fu Chenan was wearing a brown brocade robe and a jade crown on his head. He seemed to have drunk some wine, his cheeks were slightly red, his eyes were moist, and he looked at people straightly, but there was still a smile on his face.
Xiao Yingchun's eyes widened and she took a step back: "Why are you here at this time? Are you in the capital?"
Fu Chenan: "Not yet, will arrive in the capital the day after tomorrow."
"Today I went to a state capital and was entertained by the local governor. They were all drunk, so I pretended to be drunk and went back to the courtyard."
Xiao Yingchun quickly made way for him: "Then shall I get you some honey tea?"
"Okay." Fu Chenan walked to the round table and sat down, not forgetting to look at the supermarket that had obviously changed: "Is this supermarket different?"
Xiao Yingchun took a bottle of honey grapefruit tea: "I'll heat it up for you... The supermarket has been renovated these days."
"Oh...you haven't eaten yet?" Fu Chenan saw the leftovers on the table.
Xiao Yingchun heated up the grapefruit tea in the microwave and handed it to him, preparing to clean up the leftovers on the table: "I've eaten it, this is what I didn't finish..."
Fu Chenan suddenly said: "I'm not full yet."
Xiao Yingchun paused and carefully observed Fu Chenan's expression.
General Fu was staring at the two-thirds remaining dish of garlic shrimp, chicken stewed with matsutake mushrooms, and green vegetables in front of him, his eyes full of desire.
Xiao Yingchun struggled internally for a moment: "Well, this is what I left over. How about I make you some self-heating rice?"
General Fu didn't seem to mind. He pointed at the garlic shrimp and asked, "I've never eaten this before. Is it a kind of insect?"
Xiao Yingchun: "This is a shrimp, from the sea, bigger than a river shrimp. Cut it in half, stir-fry it with minced garlic, and steam it until cooked. It looks like this..."
General Fu's eyes were full of longing and curiosity: "Is it delicious?"
