Chapter 15

"Xiao Zhang, will you come to our dinner later?"

The tall and straight young man was stopped as soon as he entered the office, he put the file bag in his hand in the desk drawer, turned his head and said: "I won't go to Sister Liu, I will go to the house to tidy up later. "

"Hey? How long has your house been drying? Does it still smell?"

"It's been almost three months, and there is almost no smell," the young man said with a smile, "Last month, I heard from you and bought some pots of Chlorophyll orchids and put them back. .”

"Listen to me, that's right. Chlorophytum absorbs formaldehyde very well, and green radish also purifies the air. I bought a total of more than ten pots for the renovation of my house that year!"

After Sister Liu finished speaking, the other female teachers who were busy grading the papers also talked about what plants were growing at home, what plants could purify the air, and what plants could not be kept in the bedroom, while the young men sat silently. He went to his seat and took a sealed paper and began to grade it carefully, obviously not intending to join the women's topic.

After a while, it was time to get off work, and the female colleagues left the office in twos and threes. Before leaving, Sister Liu asked, "Xiao Zhang, there are only 3 papers left that have not been approved for major questions. After you have approved them, please check with the general manager." Points, record the score again, I'm leaving!"

The young man responded, and the office was finally completely quiet. He glanced at his phone and decided to finish the rest of the work before leaving. It was the rush hour for getting off work, and he didn't want to squeeze the bus at this time.

Over there, Sister Liu went downstairs to meet a few female colleagues, and said as she walked, "Xiao Zhang's house is almost dry, and I think we will move soon."

"Hasn't he bought furniture and appliances yet?"

"Isn't that fast?" Another person said: "We have a holiday the day after tomorrow. It's almost a month's holiday. After a few trips to the furniture store, the work will be completed. I just don't know when he plans to buy a car."

"His house is just a few stops away from our school. It's so close. I really don't need to buy it for a while." After reaching the place, Sister Liu opened the car door and waited for several colleagues to sit down before starting the car. A few people chatted, "It was very popular at first, but now I bought a house with my own loan. I can sell everything in terms of appearance, personality, education, and work. To put it bluntly, Xiao Zhang's parents are gone. Who will marry him in the future?" You don't have to serve your parents-in-law, and the young couple can just live their lives comfortably, with such a condition, it's no wonder some people want to post it."

"It's true. It's rare to see a man as stable as Mr. Zhang these days. He's been in our school for almost a year, right? I haven't seen him late. Can all the teachers and students who are interested in him make up a class? He Who have you been ambiguous with? Sigh, I believe it only when I meet someone like this. Whether a man has a house or a car is just a cloud. The key point is that he is good. The new teacher from the foreign language institute has a rich family. What is his last name? No Is it inevitable? Why has there been no movement for a while?"

"Heh, Xiao Zhang really wants to find a rich Yue family to pay her back? Obviously he didn't like it. I also inquired in private and asked him what he likes. There are so many single female teachers in our school. I can introduce him to someone who is suitable, but Xiao Zhang said that he is under financial pressure after buying a house, and he does not plan to have a girlfriend for the time being."

"Stupid, this is it!" A female teacher sighed, "Several teachers from good families are willing to pay for it. Marrying any of them will at least save ten years of struggle. Why do you say that Mr. Zhang is so important? Let me say he The biggest shortcoming of this person is that he is too lofty, what's wrong with finding a rich Yue family? It's not about letting him step in."

"There's nothing wrong with being lofty. Teacher Zhang has principles. He wants to find someone he likes. He doesn't pay as much attention to the additional conditions as others think. But the more he is like this, the more people like him. He is as handsome as a star. , You can attract a bunch of people just by your face, even if Mr. Zhang has a bad personality, there are people who are willing to catch up..."

Zhang Jingshu didn't know anything about the gossips of his female colleagues. It was past eight o'clock when he left the school, and the bus he took rarely had a seat. In the second phase, I bought a two-bedroom apartment of 88 square meters with a commercial loan, and I plan to settle here after no accidents.

The elevator stopped on the 12th floor. Zhang Jingshu took out the key to open the door. After entering the room, he watered some potted plants and then began to inspect the inside and outside.This two-bedroom, two-living house is very plainly decorated, with no decorations on the walls, all eyes are white, light yellow tiles in the kitchen and bathroom, and light-colored floors in the living room and living room. There is a double bed in the bedroom, which looks quite ordinary, and it is not worth much at first glance. The bathroom is equipped with the most expensive household appliances in the house at present-the water heater, the toilet and the sink are all white, the most basic style , practical and affordable.

The down payment and simple decoration of this house have actually used up Zhang Jingshu's savings over the years, which has resulted in him being so cash-strapped that he can only live on salary, but Zhang Jingshu has always wanted to have a stable residence. He is a teacher from a nearby university. At this time, there was a discount of 2 yuan for buying a house, so even though the community was located in a remote place, he gritted his teeth and admitted that he could buy the same furniture and appliances in the future. Zhang Jingshu is used to being frugal. I can still save nearly 1000 yuan for loans and living expenses, and this month’s invigilator will also have extra salary, so I can save some more money. Zhang Jingshu is thinking in his heart that he will buy a wardrobe and a refrigerator when he comes back from the holiday, and they will both buy more than [-] yuan. That's fine, wait for him to regain his vitality, and then change them one by one.

Looking at the weather forecast on his mobile phone, it said that it would rain tomorrow. Zhang Jingshu came here tonight mainly to close the windows, and then wiped the entire floor of the house. After making sure everything was safe, he took the bus back to his rented house.

On the day of the holiday, Zhang Jingshu got up early and had dinner, took the card and went straight to the nearest home plaza. It was not difficult to pick up things. There were only a few wardrobes with more than 1000 pieces. Zhang Jingshu visited a few stores, a dozen The order was made within minutes, and he gave the address to the clerk. He went to the opposite shopping mall and chose a small domestic brand refrigerator. He saw that a certain kitchen appliance brand was on sale, silently calculated the money in the card, and bought it again. An unplanned rice cooker, on the way back to the new house by car, Zhang Jingshu received a message from a female teacher, wanting to ask him out for a meal, he deliberately waited half an hour before returning, and politely refused.

Ever since I applied for a job as a teacher in a secondary school in Shencheng, my colleagues always wanted to introduce him to someone after they learned that he was 27 or [-] or single. After he decided to buy a house a few months ago, there were even more people who wanted to be a matchmaker. In addition to dealing with these people, there are female teachers and female students who actively pursue him from time to time, but he firmly rejects them. Now he just wants to decorate his own home bit by bit and live a good life.

In the afternoon, wardrobes and refrigerators were delivered one after another. Zhang Jingshu’s rented house will not expire until half a month later. He plans to move here in the last three days. After last month’s salary is paid, he still has to buy dining tables, kitchen utensils, and sofas. I have to buy it first, and my colleagues have already greeted him, saying that they have to invite them to visit the house and have a meal when they move to a new house, so that everyone can celebrate him. Just like this, running around the new house shopping mall, Zhang Jingshu is finally in the house. Before going to work, I have taken care of my new home so that I can see people. Although I still lack several furniture and appliances, it is still possible to entertain my colleagues for a meal.

"Xiao Zhang, your space is a bit empty, but it's really clean, and it's comfortable to look at," Sister Liu was filled with emotion as soon as she entered the door that day: "After having a child, my house is like a garbage dump, and things are getting worse and worse. The more I save, the more I use it, the more I don’t need it a few times, the more I throw it away, it’s a pity, now I don’t like tidying up anymore.”

Zhang Jingshu smiled, but didn't answer. He could tell that Sister Liu was complaining sweetly.

"Why is there nothing in this house?" Sister Liu asked when visiting the second bedroom.

"This room is going to be used as a study," Zhang Jingshu explained: "I haven't put anything in it for the time being, and it will be fine to arrange the bookshelves and desks when I buy them later."

"Use it as a study..." Sister Liu was stunned for a moment, and then seriously suggested: "Even if it is a study, I advise you to put a bed in this room for preparation. If there is a guest coming someday, there will be a place to sleep, and you can't let it go." Sleeping on the sofa? It doesn’t need to be too big, just a single bed, at least it can be used as a guest room temporarily.”

Zhang Jingshu thought about it, and felt that what Sister Liu said made sense. Although the possibility of guests coming to stay was very small, it was not too troublesome to prepare a bed, and he himself could rest in the study from time to time.After a while, several other colleagues arrived one after another, holding the housewarming gift prepared for him in their hands. Zhang Jingshu saw that it was not an ordinary gift such as fruit, but a set of blue and white porcelain hand-painted tableware. Sixty of them, exquisite and elegant in appearance, definitely not worth less than two thousand.

"After much deliberation, everyone decided to join in and give this to you. The most important thing is that they think it is practical and you can use it. Keep it at ease. There is not much money for everyone to share." Sister Liu ignored Zhang Jingshu after she finished speaking. , directly put the things in the corner of the kitchen, Zhang Luo said: "Have you seen enough? Come out to wash and pick vegetables after seeing enough! Today Xiao Zhang will cook for us!"

The room is so big, and there are not many things. It is almost clear at a glance when you come in. A group of female teachers have to go into the kitchen to help after a tour. In the end, Sister Liu kicked out a few helpless things, and the kitchen started to be busy. Several teachers who were kicked out gathered together on the sofa to mutter and chat, and the main character was Zhang Jingshu again.

"There are still a lot of things missing. I haven't bought all of them since school is about to start. I guess I don't have enough money. Teacher Zhang is too honest. Why don't you borrow some from us? There aren't too many, and a few thousand per person can still be used. of."

"Don't say this in front of people. I know you are kind, but you haven't seen Mr. Zhang? He is a master who doesn't want to ask for help. With his family conditions, he just bought the house by himself. , It’s not easy, how many men dare to pat their chests and say that they bought the wedding room by themselves? Didn’t the family pay a penny?”

"Several male teachers from the Institute of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering also bought a house here. I inquired about it. Teacher Zhang's house costs more than 40 yuan in full, and the down payment is [-] yuan after the discount. Teacher Zhang has been working for less than two years, right? Fu Jia decoration is a lot for him, it's not easy without a father or a mother!"

As soon as these words came out, several female teachers were silent for a while, and the youngest Ai Qiqi said, "I used to think that Mr. Zhang would be easy to find, and there would be no problems with in-laws. Looking at it now, it's not easy. I don't want to Relying on the woman's family, everything has to be done by himself, so much pressure..."

When Zhang Jingshu cooks, he cooks by himself. It took almost two hours to bring the last dish to the table. The teachers who had already started offered a seat for him, and they were full of praise for a while.

"You can make fish-flavored shredded pork and braised pork ribs! It's so delicious!" A female teacher who was still feasting sighed, "If I were a few years younger, I would definitely kick the one at home and chase you! Just go to this chef. Yi, it's worth it for me to be ashamed!"

The others laughed and mocked unceremoniously: "You should grow to 1.6 meters first. Mr. Zhang is a little green among the thousands of flowers in our Finance and Management Institute. It's a treasure. None of us can't do it without finding a goddess. I promise, but it's not your turn!"

"Then I'll chase after you with a stern face, and you still look at me every day?" The female teacher became more and more enthusiastic, and then asked Zhang Jingshu, "Hey, Jingshu, can you tell me about the criteria for choosing a mate? I won't introduce you to someone. , just curious about what kind of person you want to find."

Zhang Jingshu choked on this question after just a few mouthfuls of food. He took a sip of his drink from the water glass and said, "I can support myself now, and I don't want to think about anything else. There is no specific standard. It depends on your eyes." Bar."

The eye edge is so mysterious that it really can't be defined by any standard.

"Haha, you have high vision! We understand!"

Probably a few colleagues think so, right?Zhang Jingshu smiled lightly, stopped defending, and continued to eat with his head down.

If he doesn't even understand himself, how can others understand?
