Siheyuan: Black and steady Gou Laoliu

Chapter 26: Telling a Story on the Phone

When Lao Xu's bicycle stopped at the gate of Lou's house, a nanny was already waiting at the gate with a kind smile on her face.

This nanny is not Lao Xu’s wife, and Han Li doesn’t know her either.

But it's normal to think about it. With Lou Bancheng's wealth and status, it's impossible for him to have only one nanny in his family.

As usual, you will be searched upon entering.

After the bodyguard finished the inspection, he made a gesture of invitation: "The boss is in the study on the second floor."

Han Li nodded, and after taking two steps, he heard the cold voice of the bodyguard behind him: "Dezi, the boss asked you to go back to the steel mill directly. The factory has a reception task today."

"Okay, I'll go back right away." Xu Wude responded, and then warned in the tone of an elder: "Xiao Han, remember the rules and etiquette I told you, and don't mess up your manners."

Lao Xu is indeed a cunning man. If Han Li does a good job, he can benefit from it. If he fails, he can also clear himself of all blame.

When the time comes, I will just pass the blame on to him and say: Oh, I gave him so many instructions on the way here, but this guy just ignored me!

The main point is: I will enjoy the good times and I will be the first to escape when there are difficulties.

"Uncle Xu, I remember it all." Han Li turned around and responded, then went upstairs.

Arriving at Lou's study room with familiarity, Han Li knocked on the door and after hearing a response from inside, he pushed the door open and went in.

When I entered the room, I saw Lou Bancheng talking on the phone. He just looked up, paused, and continued talking on the phone.

Han Li looked around and sat down on the sofa near the door.

Although Boss Lou did not shy away from making phone calls, it was very tactless for him to sit directly opposite the other person at this time, making both of them awkward.

After listening briefly, Han Li realized that Boss Lou was talking about business matters. He was not interested at all and just picked up a newspaper and started reading it with great interest.

At this time, there was a knock on the door. After Lou Bancheng called in, the nanny brought in a cup of hot tea.

The nanny placed the tea on the coffee table in front of Han Li and said with a gentle smile, "Please."

"Thank you." Han Li smiled and nodded. He seemed a little reserved on the surface, but he was very calm inside.

Afterwards, Han Li sipped his tea and read the newspaper, feeling contented.

Finally, after he finished reading a page of the newspaper, Lou Bancheng's voice suddenly stopped.

Han Li put down the newspaper, stood up and greeted: "Boss Lou."

Lou Bancheng nodded in greeting, and without keeping the topic secret, he asked directly, "Do you have any other interesting stories?"

Although the situation was exactly as Han Li predicted, he still pretended to be surprised. After a moment of silence, he replied: "There are still a few more."

"Okay." Lou Bancheng nodded with satisfaction: "You can tell the story to this phone later."

After finishing his instructions, Lou Zhenhua fiddled with his phone for a while, then waved to Han Li and stood up to give up his seat.

"As long as you speak well, I will never treat you unfairly." Lou Bancheng patted Han Li's shoulder and then hurried out.

It turned out that after listening to the story recorded by Han Li, Boss Lou's daughter liked it very much. She played it over and over again until she got tired of the story of "The Little Pony Crossing the River". Then she pestered her father to hear a new story.

Feeling a little overwhelmed by his daughter's annoyance, Boss Lou agreed without thinking.

However, Lou Bancheng has been so busy lately that he completely forgot about this matter.

Last night, when my daughter was looking forward to hearing a new story, there was no new story.

The result is predictable. The daughter cried so much that the whole family couldn't have a good dinner.

In the end, Lou Bancheng promised his daughter that he would find a storyteller to tell her a story tomorrow, and only then was he able to coax his daughter into silence.

However, having been deceived once, Boss Lou's credibility plummeted. This morning, his daughter was acting like a spoiled brat and didn't want to go to school. She insisted on staying at home to listen to a new story.

Old Lou, a daughter-slave, was really helpless and had to contact Dezi and invite Han Li.

Although Han Li looked harmless, one should still be on guard against him. It is better to be safe than sorry. For the sake of his daughter's safety, Boss Lou came up with the clever idea of ​​telling a story over the phone.

In addition, Lou Zhenhua is also a relatively traditional person. He would feel very uncomfortable letting his wife and daughter come into contact with a man who is not related to them.

After Lou Bancheng left, Han Li walked to the desk and could already hear two breathing sounds coming and going on the other end of the phone.

If nothing unexpected happens, the people on the other end of the phone should be Lou Xiao'e and her mother Tan Xiaoli.

Since he had already prepared a draft in his mind on the way here, Han Li quickly got into the state and began to tell the story of Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf in a vivid and emotional manner.

Han Li on the other end of the phone was speaking very hard, and Tan Xiaoli and her son on the other end were already fascinated by what he was saying, and they would giggle from time to time.

"The Gray Wolf who was flung away shouted: 'I will definitely come back!'"

After that, a clear and cheerful laughter came from the other end of the phone, which lasted for a long time. It was obviously the laughter of "Silly Ezi".

Han Li stood up and took a sip of tea. When he went back, he started telling the story of "The Three Little Pigs Building a House" again.

The stories told by Han Li are not only novel and interesting, but most importantly, they are educational. In fact, he also hopes to correct the simple and honest and straightforward character of "Silly Ezi" so that she will not be fooled by others without knowing it in the future.

After finishing the story of "The Three Little Pigs Building a House", Tan Xiaoli's gentle and intellectual voice sounded on the other end of the phone: "Xiao Han, take a rest first."

"Ok."

Then, Tan Xiaoli's gentle and intellectual voice turned serious: "Ezi, you have to go to school."

Lou Xiao'e refused and begged, "Mom, I want to hear more. Can you tell me one more story? I will go to school if you tell me one more story."

Tan Xiaoli was gentle and soft-hearted, and she was a little overwhelmed by her daughter's nagging. After thinking for a while, she asked on the phone, "Xiao Han, are you free tomorrow weekend?"

No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Lou Tan knows her daughter's personality. She can be more at peace when her daughter goes to school, but she will be very troubled if she is noisy at home on weekends.

So in order to have a quiet weekend, I have to find something for my daughter to do.

"When I'm free." Han Li is not stupid. He can make money by talking in Lou's family, so why should he go to the countryside to work hard?

"That's good. Come over tomorrow after lunch."

Tan Xiaoli knew that her daughter usually slept in on weekends and was most noisy in the afternoon.

"Okay." Han Li agreed readily.

At this time, Lou Xiao'e began to act like a spoiled child: "Mom, I want to hear more stories, I want to hear more."

"Ezi, stop making trouble. Your brother Xiaohan and I have made an appointment to continue telling you stories tomorrow. If you don't listen, there will be no more stories to listen to in the future."

"Good."

Hearing the aggrieved voice, Han Li could imagine the cute look of a little girl pouting and being angry.

The next moment, Tan Xiaoli's voice came again: "Xiao Han, open the drawer on the right side of the desk. There is an envelope inside. It is your reward. That's it. See you tomorrow."

After hanging up the phone, Han Li opened the drawer on his right hand side, and sure enough, there was an envelope lying quietly inside.

After opening the envelope, Han Li's eyes lit up instantly, and he was overjoyed: "Wow, this is true, following Bancheng, eating nine meals a day!"
