Chapter 12 Chapter 12
Zhao Shenglan desperately chased forward, and after seven years, she felt that she had finally caught up with those people who were originally out of reach.
"Oh, congratulations, Auntie, Sheng Lan has really given our parents a face." Zhang Chuanshu is Zhang Tianyou's eldest son. He gave the gift money and said a few polite words to the old lady to pay attention to his body. . "Well, Auntie, I have something to do at home, so I won't go in. I'll see you another day."
"Pass the book, come in and sit down." The old lady's reaction was no different than before, and she kept shouting when she was far away.
"Mom, stop shouting!" Gu Xiaoxiao pulled the old lady behind her, showing a disgusted look: "Isn't uncle only fond of the second child's family, then his Zhang Chuanshu must be the same. Our family, Shenglan, took care of the research, and they thought Surely I don’t know why I’m uncomfortable, but I still come in to sit? I guess the money is sent here because I don’t know how distressed I am!”
"Don't make it so ugly, look, it's 5000 yuan..." Zhao Changsheng opened Zhang Chuanshu's red envelope, counted it and handed it to Gu Xiaoxiao.
"5000 yuan? So what if it's 5 yuan! He, Zhao Changming's family, didn't pay a dime. It's like using the 5000 yuan to send us away. The abacus is really smart." He grumbled, but still Twisting the red ticket in his hand, he counted it again.
The old lady opened her mouth, looking at the red paper that was blown out by the firecracker just outside, thinking about today is Shenglan’s big day, it’s not good for Gu Xiaoxiao to spoil the school banquet because of this, and sighed softly With a hunched body, he left the door and walked in.
Not far from the hotel, under a thick green tree, Zhao Nan handed a red velvet box to Zhao Shenglan: "Here, your gift for entering school, open it and have a look."
The box was opened, and inside was an exquisite necklace with a small pendant in the shape of a crown, even in this gloomy weather, it still shone brightly.
"It's so beautiful, brother, you're so kind to me, isn't this a lot of money?" Zhao Shenglan couldn't put it down and looked at it several times before closing the box.
"Just as long as you are happy." In fact, Zhao Nan originally planned to give Zhao Shenglan a painting he had drawn by himself, but sat in front of the drawing board with a paintbrush in his hand for hours, but didn't know where to start and what to paint.Then I arrived at the jewelry store and asked the shopping guide to pick out a suitable gift.
"Brother, do you really plan to take the postgraduate entrance examination? Although the design industry is in a good situation now, you can't be sure what will happen in the future. While you are young, I think you can consider continuing your studies."
"Well, let's talk about it. I'll look for a job first. If it doesn't work, it won't be too late for me to take the postgraduate entrance examination."
Zhao Shenglan saw that Zhao Nan was unwilling to say more about this matter, plus she had just escaped.Gu Xiaoxiao made repeated orders not to allow her to associate with her second uncle's family, or even Zhao Nan. If Gu Xiaoxiao saw her, she would definitely be read to death when she returned home.
After the two parted, Zhao Nan returned home and heard his mother Wang Zhiyun's voice from afar.
"Why are you so stupid? Look at what you wrapped. This one, this one is just a little bit of stuffing, and the whole dough is full. That one is too much. You can see that the opening on the side is not pinched to death at all, and all of them are exposed. Here it comes, the pot will be broken later!"
"If it breaks, it will break. At worst, if you drink pork noodle soup, you will eat it in your stomach. There is no difference..." Zhao Changming continued to create his dumplings without changing his words.
Seeing Zhao Nan coming back, Wang Zhiyun said, "Nan Nan, hurry up and wash your hands, and quickly replace your father. You are making him mess up like this. I guess we will really have pork noodle soup later."
Zhao Changming made way for Zhao Nan when he was successful, and ran behind Wang Zhiyun to help her rub her shoulders: "Daughter-in-law has worked hard today."
"Slick tongue!" Wang Zhiyun twisted his body and glanced at Zhao Nan: "Look at your son's bag, how beautiful it is! I don't know how many times better than you."
"Nan Nan," Zhao Changming stopped what he was doing, walked up to Zhao Nan and patted him on the shoulder, and asked earnestly, "You really don't plan to take the postgraduate entrance examination, you see you are so good, you can pass the exam." superior!"
"What's the matter with you today, you can't do your job well, and you still talk so much!" Wang Zhiyun waved his rolling pin as if to greet Zhao Changming: "Nannan naturally has his own ideas if he doesn't take the exam, so don't talk about it all day long. I said it."
"Okay! Son, if you have any plan, go ahead and do it boldly. Your father and I will fully support it. If you mess up, it's okay. If it's a big deal, come home. I just hand over the company to you, so I can take your mother out to travel around the world. !"
When Wang Zhiyun heard it, the flames rose up: "Hey, I think your skin is really itchy these two days, if you have the ability, don't hide, come here..."
Zhao Nan looked at her parents who were nearly 50 years old and still looked like two children, she shook her head helplessly and smiled, and continued to finish making the dumplings in her hands.
Passing by the dumplings in his hands, each one was round and just right, and they were placed on the panel like a cheerful and fat boy, looking very festive.It's one of his insignificant life-enriching skills.
It is said that those who engage in art do not eat fireworks in the world. Zhao Nan is a special case. In his eyes, the details of life are also an indispensable part of art.This thinking has given him good cooking skills and housework abilities comparable to professionals.
So, after the graduation ceremony half a year later, Zhao Nan left the university campus where he had lived for four years, rented a single apartment near the school, and started his small life.
Finding a job is the first step. He studied art design in college. In his prediction, it should not be difficult to find a job.
It was indeed not difficult to find, but finding one that met his expectations in every way was difficult.
A month later, in his bachelor apartment, college roommates came to him to eat hot pot and lament about life.
The roommate is a real man, but God failed to fulfill his wishes, but the man's name made him feel miserable for more than 20 years.
"Hanliu'er... come, eat more meat." Zhao Nan elongated her voice, intentionally ignoring Mu Hanliu.
"Damn, can it be better? I ran all the way here to accompany you as a single dog. You actually picked my pain and poked me, aren't you a buddy?" After eating, "Seriously, how is your job search going?"
Mu Hanliu helped find a job at home before he graduated. Today, he received his first month's salary, drove for almost an hour, and bought food to condolences to Zhao Nan.
"I said you..." Mu Hanliu put down his chopsticks, and put one hand on Zhao Nan's shoulder: "You have been our dormitory's happy bean for four years, brother, I really can't bear to see you like this today. He hid his face and made a gesture of regret, and then said: "For the sake of the instant noodles you have soaked for me for four years, otherwise I will ask my dad to find a place for you."
"No, please don't. I didn't make instant noodles for you for four years. I made them in a dormitory, okay?" Zhao Nan pushed Mu Hanliu's hand away: "Besides, How much does your job cost a month, I guess you have to eat half of today's hot pot meal..."
"Hey! A dog bites Lu Dongbin and doesn't know a good heart!" Mu Hanliu continued, gnashing his teeth, "To be honest, I probably won't be able to make a lot of money in this job in my life, but it is directly proportional to the workload, and I have a lot of free time You see, when the two of us get together, we can drink and sing together after work, and we can also go on a trip together, how wonderful..."
As Mu Hanliu said, his eyes began to drift away, as if the happy days were just around the corner, but he was caught back to reality unexpectedly by a pair of devil claws.
"Hey, Hanliuer, what do you mean by that? Didn't you divide again?!" Zhao Nan patted Mu Hanliu lightly.
"Ang, we're separated. We've been separated for several days... Also, please call me Damu and Hanliuer. Don't blame me for not recognizing you as a brother."
After finishing his righteous words, he picked up the empty hot pot bottom with two chopsticks like a normal person.
Zhao Nan silently put down her chopsticks, waiting for Damu to explode.Sure enough, the chopsticks went back and forth in the pot three and a half times, and the big wood started...
"I don't understand. With a handsome guy like me in front of her every day, why does she still want to chase after stars? You can chase after stars. I also understand after chasing Xiao Xianrou, because Xiao Xianrou came to Weibo or something I can accept spending a lot of time on swiping tickets, even if I spend money on him!" He was so indignant that he knocked on the table with bamboo chopsticks: "But why do you say, why do you have to meet with your own eyes?! Okay, I’ll see you soon, and I’ll give you a round-trip air ticket of several thousand yuan! But then you have to take care of my real boyfriend’s feelings, right? I’m addicted to seeing you once, and I’m going again this time. It's easy to raise her alone, and you have to wrap her little fresh meat round, right? I'm not taking care of her anymore..."
He touched the table subconsciously, and soon Zhao Nan stuffed a glass of boiled water in his hand: "I don't have any wine here, I'm wronged you to just make do with the boiled water."
Mu Hanliu was still sullen at first, but when he saw Zhao Nan gliding away on his two thin legs, and then gliding back, four pieces of ice fell into his water glass with a bang sound, and the feeling in his heart Most of the depression dissipated.
"I added a panacea for you to reduce summer heat and reduce fire, and drink it to ensure that you will be cured!"
"Cut~ I'm not sick, it's because she's sick, and she's still very sick..." Da Mu took a sip of water and put a piece of ice in his mouth, as if suddenly remembering something, he pulled out his hand and handed it to Zhao Nan's hand was full of jealousy and said: "Look, just this guy, I don't think it looks so shocking, it's just so-so."
There is a photo on the screen of the mobile phone. The person in the photo should be dancing on the stage. The fixed light and shadow are scattered among his agile limbs, and a pair of inexplicably sad eyes hang down from the floating clothes.
Zhao Nan frowned, picked up the phone, zoomed in with two fingers and looked at it a few more times, then asked: "Da Mu, is there any more?"
"What's there? No, I'm completely cut off from her, and I will never have anything to do with her again!"
"I mean do you still have a picture of this guy?"
Reluctantly, Damu took the phone over, opened WeChat, brought up his ex-girlfriend's chat page, tentatively sent a cute bunny emoji, and a red circle exclamation point appeared: "Damn..."
He was so impatient that he flipped through the chat records. After more than a dozen pages of records of their quarrel, a large number of pictures appeared, and the protagonists of the pictures were all the same person.
Most of them are refined pictures, and there are also a few photos from the perspective of passers-by.Zhao Nan kept flipping backwards, and stopped when she slid to one of them.
The person in the photo is wearing a light blue denim jacket, the corners of the mouth are slightly raised, and the corners of the eyes are with a doting smile. The angle of view should be the person who is looking at the photo.
"This one, it was taken at her meeting last time. Just this one glance completely took my girlfriend's soul away."
"Is his name Zhao Feng?" Zhao Nan returned the phone to Damu as calmly as possible, and lowered his head to eat the cold yuba.
"Half right, this guy is called Qin Feng."
