man to marry
Chapter 83
"Shanglu?...Hmm!" Before Shu Xia's Mimeng's eyes could see the man in front of her clearly, she was approached by a cold and familiar aura, and she was hugged into her arms.
The fiery kiss of the long-lost reunion, Shu Xia raised her head to bear the passion belonging to this man, and the inexplicable nightmare just now disappeared with this kiss.
But what did he dream about just now?Shu Xia thought about it carefully and couldn't figure it out, but in that dream, there seemed to be a kind of cold hands and feet imprisoned in the water, unable to exert strength, making people very desperate, and then awakened by Phytophthora's voice.
"It hurts..." Shu Xia turned her face away, and said in a sleepy voice, "Why did you bite me?"
"You're not serious," Shang Lu pinched his chin, looked at his cheek with the bathroom light and said, "Crying? Had a nightmare?"
"Huh?" Shu Xia touched the corner of her eyes, and after feeling a stream of moisture, she froze for a moment and said, "It shouldn't be."
He is not the kind of person who will cry when he encounters setbacks, but Shanglu's call made him feel redeemed. So, what kind of strange dream did he have?
No, the important thing is not what dream he had, but... "Why are you here?!" Shu Xia sat up, if it wasn't for Shang Lu's quick retreat, she almost hit his forehead "Why did you get into my room?" Inside? I remember I put the safety lock on."
"That kind of lock is useless," Shang Lu sat by his bed, looked at him and said, "You just want to ask me this when you see me?"
"Then what else are you asking?" Shu Xia hugged the quilt and yawned. The light next to him was on, so he didn't sleep well at all, and after running for a whole day, Shang Lu felt safe and sleepy. They also came up together, "You are here now, don't you need to go to class?"
"I have to leave at four o'clock for the plane tomorrow morning," Shanglu said, reaching out his hand and touching his cheek.
"Huh? Then why are you coming back this time?" Shu Xia's mind was still a little groggy, and she was not quite sober after shaking.
Shanglu's breath sank slightly, he got up and turned off the bathroom light, walked towards Shu Xia according to the light outside the window and said, "Do you remember what you did on the phone yesterday?"
Shu Xia was taken aback, and frightened inexplicably at the body coming towards him, what did he do when he called yesterday, oh, he took a shower, and he was very confident in a foreign country relying on a man, and now, people stood before him.
Shu Xia reached out and pushed his leaning chest, and said with a sneer, "You... listen to my explanation, there is actually a reason for this matter."
There is no reason at all, that is, he has been with those little tigers for a long time, cheap claws!
"I don't want to hear it," Shang Lu held his hand, leaned over and said in his ear, "The bathroom here is not clean, I'll let you off this time, and wait for me to go home next time..."
Then do I still have to thank you, Shu Xia complained in her heart.
The voice fell, the earlobe was bitten, Shu Xia subconsciously covered her ears, but she couldn't look left and right, and could only be burned by the scorching kiss.
In the darkness, only the dripping of sweat and the sound of the man's heavy breathing rang in my ears. It was warm and hot, a feeling completely different from that cold dream.
It's really great to have Shanglu here.
After one or two good feelings, the third time, it was not so good. Shu Xia refused and said, "Shanglu, I'm tired, don't you want to sleep for a while? Get up so early tomorrow."
"I fell asleep on the plane, not sleepy," Shang Lu kissed the corner of his lips and said, "If you are tired, you can sleep and leave me alone."
Shu Xia "..."
Who can fall asleep after being shaken all the time while sleeping, that's a hell of a thing.
"Let's discuss it," Shu Xia said kindly.
"There's no need to discuss it," Shang Lu rubbed the tip of his nose with him affectionately, "This time, it's considered merciful."
"Well……"
Facts have proved that a man who has been holding back for a long time cannot be teased casually, especially if he is not around, he will fall asleep in the end.
When the young man in his arms was wiped, there was no sign of waking up at all. Shang Lu looked at the damp quilt, frowned, turned over to cover him, and hugged him in his arms inside.
It is really inconvenient to go out, but next time, you can go to a high-quality couple suite, the environment there will be much better than here.
The young man in his arms was sleeping soundly, and the temperature of the air conditioner was turned on a little low. He groped in his arms and got more intimate. Shanglu looked at the time, it was two o'clock in the morning, the plane at 06:30 in the morning, four Start at [-]:[-], there is no traffic jam in the early morning, and two hours is enough to get to the airport.
Then there are only two hours left, and Shang Lu has no plans to sleep. They should have a good talk after seeing each other for such a long time, but when they meet someone, he just wants to get closer to him, get closer, and return When one is overwhelmed, one is already tired and falls asleep.
On the way here, two hours was very long, but at this moment, two hours passed in a flash. Before he had time to look at his Xia Xia twice, the time was almost up.
Feelings of reluctance rolled in his heart, Shang Lu was fortunate that Shu Xia fell asleep, so that he didn't have to face the situation of the first parting.
A soft kiss fell on the corner of his mouth, and the person in his arms murmured softly, "No more..."
"Okay, no more," Shanglu pulled out his arm, put on his clothes, touched his forehead hair, put the room card on his bedside, turned and walked out.
The door clicked and locked.
The lights in the corridor were on even at night. Shanglu walked to the blind corner of the surveillance and sent a text message. After a while, a man in plain clothes came over and stood in front of him.
"Xia Xia's mood is not right today. What happened during the day?" Shang Lu was a little confused about Shu Xia's mood when she just woke up. If it was just a nightmare, how could she cry? According to the dream, he must have encountered something to be like that.
"Madam met a few strike-ups during the day," the man standing opposite Shanglu reported, "then went to an antique shop and bought a censer, went out of the antique street and saw a shop, and then came back."
"The one who struck up a conversation?" Shang Lu's face darkened for a moment, "Is there anyone special?"
Although his Xia Xia was very upset about being approached by others, the problem probably lay with these few people.
But when he asked the question, the man opposite him froze. The boss just said that he had a few strike-ups. The problem was that the boss asked him like this, and he didn't know whether to say it or not.
He kept silent, and Shang Lu's expression of doubts sank completely, "It seems that there is? Why? You can't say it here? You know, people with two hearts can't be used here. of."
His breath was very cold, like a storm, since he stopped from the business district in City A, he had never felt such anger again, at least he had never seen it.
Sure enough, it was about Madam, the boss was not so solemn, the man sighed, and said before Shanglu's anger reached its peak, "Madam won't let us speak, but if he says what we said, he will fire us all."
Shang Lu was stunned for a moment, and the Qi he was going to achieve disappeared without a trace in an instant. He pinched his brows and said, "What he said doesn't count, you just need to report to me."
The man looked up at him, then turned his head and said, "Ma'am said, the sky is falling, and he is holding it up. If we say so, the pillow wind blows, and people will be gone. But if you offend the boss, he will pay us wages. "
It's the opposite of the sky. If someone else dares to do this, Shang Lu has a lot of tricks to deal with these people who are suspected of betrayal. The problem is that they are listening to Xia Xia's words now. As he said, Shang Lu really can't take him what to do.
I can't hit and beat, I can't scold and scold, I just want to coax and protect him, for fear that his life will not be satisfactory, for fear that he will be bullied by others.
But what is it that you want to hide from him?Shanglu thought for a while, but he didn't have a clue, but the subordinate in front of him was stunned, and his attitude was that he would not say anything if he was beaten to death.
"Okay, just look at the person you like, as long as the person is fine, you can do whatever you want," Shang Lu chose to give in, and Shu Xia wanted to solve one thing by himself, and he didn't want him to know, so he pretended not to know, the worst thing was that he ended up Can't solve it, he is cleaning up the mess for him.
But his Xia Xia, what is left behind, is not necessarily a mess.
"Yes, Boss," the man looked at him to check the time, then returned the same way, and disappeared after a while.
Shang Lu turned around and went downstairs, took a last look at the hotel, got into the car waiting at the door, closed the door and left.
Opening her eyes, the sky was bright. When Shu Xia yawned and wanted to sit up, she leaned back on her back and lay down again. With a hiss, she lay on the bed and stabbed someone's villain in her heart.
Every time I do it, I can't wait to finish the whole year, he is here and he can't run away, really.
Shu Xia turned over, touched the phone, it was already ten o'clock in the evening, the man must have left, Shu Xia was both reluctant and annoyed, he couldn't just come back to sleep, right?
Didn't he just tease him that day, and he came back specifically to teach him a lesson?
Don't look at the high mountains and the emperor's distance, that's not ancient times. After the front foot is finished, the back foot can be touched quietly.
I always feel that the man's narrow-mindedness increases exponentially after marriage.
What's more, if he can touch it, someone must have tipped him off. Shu Xia looked at the room card next to the bed, thinking about Xue Shao's inexplicable behavior last night and the previous phone call.
It’s my wife checking the post, hehe, he has a face, just colluding with him here, and then he can collude with Shanglu to pit him on the other side, supporting the wall on both sides. wall grass.
Shu Xia was very angry, so in the next few days in city b, Shu Xia didn't give Xue Shao a good look, but he acted like nothing happened, and reminded him very friendly, "Boss, how do you plan to arrange the live broadcast time next? "
Shu Xia "..."
Feeling angry for nothing.
In the survey of city b, Shu Xia investigated the taste, but the employees who came here had to collect data one by one in addition to the taste, customer flow, location selection, and the impression of Linlang here, which is definitely better than Shu Xia's. Xia, the boss, has been busy for many times.
And Shu Xia, under Xue Shao's arrangement, completely sold out the store in his previous life.
As for Song Ruiduan, when Shu Xia went to sign the contract, he almost bumped into him. The man was still in a suit and leather shoes, standing at the intersection where they met for the first time in this life, looking at something, smiling and looking at his gentle face with unknown coldness.
But his nature is like that, maybe people who meet him for the first time don’t understand and think he is gentle and easy to talk, but in fact, that person is not only cold in blood, but also cold in heart.
It's just a piece of stone, and if you hold it over your heart, you can still warm it up, but Song Ruiduan is not, he is an absolute egoist, he can treat you well when he likes it, but once he touches his bottom line, he violates him If he doesn't want to, then he will definitely not be the one who is unlucky.
And this kind of person has a problem, that is, the more he can't get it, the more he wants it. If something is out of his control, he will either regain control or destroy it.
Shu Xia hadn't contacted him since the day we parted. Fu Li's name was fake, there wasn't even a photo of him on the Internet, and there wasn't even a contact information. He was really capable of finding someone who could find him.
Song Ruiduan's coming here again was a proof of his reluctance, but in this world, how could everything go his way.
Shu Xia nodded Xue Shao's shoulder, and led the people away from the other side.
If you can't ask for it, let him look for it slowly, anyway, he is going back to City A.
After encountering Song Ruiduan's incident, Shu Xia quietly inquired about it at Shanglu, and was taught a long-winded lesson by the man for an hour. When going out, don't dress too nicely. Don't wear shorts when the weather is cold. After making sure that Xue Shao and those bodyguards did not report this matter to the man, he said helplessly, "In that case, you might as well lock me at home."
Shanglu was obviously stunned for a moment, and was eager to try, "Can I?"
"No!" With a black face, Shu Xia asked him to pull this thought out of his mind, chop it up, throw it into the toilet and flush it down, and never let it come back.
"It's very difficult, Xia Xia," Shang Lu followed his outline on the screen and said, "As soon as I saw you, I wanted to hide you."
Shu Xia pursed her lips, she didn't feel disgusted with herself, but she was really convinced by the sweet attitude in her heart.
"Well, then watch less," Shu Xia looked at the time and said, "Okay, I'm going to get on the plane, bye~"
After hanging up the phone, Shu Xia breathed a sigh of relief.
After returning from city b, Shu Xia, who was inspecting other cities, did not follow him. It was not because he didn't want to go, but to save time and improve efficiency. Several cities were sent in batches at the same time. Shu Xia only needed to review the final one. The result is fine.
However, this matter is not in a hurry. After searching for places, to expand, Shu Xia needs to readjust the taste of the recipes before investing in those places.
And on a business trip for a week, apart from those bad things and Shang Lu's unplanned behavior, what Shu Xia misses the most is the little bumps at home.
As soon as he came back, he was surrounded first, and a few little guys clinged to his body and called daddy, while Xiao Shangchen raised his face and asked, "Where did brother go? It's been a long time."
"Brother went to other places to work," Shu Xia patted his head, the little guy is keeping his human form for longer and longer now, "Chenchen misses brother?"
Xiao Shangchen nodded heavily and said, "My brother has been away for a long time, so he can't send me to kindergarten."
"Hey, hey, this hurts my heart," Bai Meng said while sitting on the sofa beside him, "At any rate, I also worked hard to pick you up and drop you off for a week. I woke up earlier than the chicken, and I fell asleep... Cough, Shu Xia ended up... As soon as you come back, you little guy will rebel."
"Thanks for your hard work." Shu Xia took Shang Chen's hand and sat down in front of the sofa, saluted and put it aside, lazily unwilling to pack up. "I was on a business trip for a week, and I found out that it's better to stay at home."
"Sister-in-law, what did you go on a business trip to city b?" Bai Meng was a little curious about this. As far as his current job is concerned, he spends his whole day looking at other people's plans, and the plans he makes are often the same. You have to pass Dad's approval.
Bai Meng himself felt nothing. He knew how much he was worth. If he wanted to manage the company well, of course it was not just by studying well. is the key.
Baimeng also knew that he was just talking on paper, doing some small planning projects, and slowly growing himself up. He really wanted to reach the sky and manage the entire company. He might have to go bankrupt and liquidate within a month.
The work is always in the office, and Baimeng has a different kind of curiosity about work like business trips.
"What are you doing? I went to eat." Shu Xia stretched her waist, smiled and said to him, "The snacks in city B are so good. When I went with Xue Shao, I was still lamenting that I didn't take you there. Otherwise, it must be very appetizing."
"Ah? So good, what did you eat?" Bai Meng asked involuntarily, pulling his sleeves, "I ate roast duck when I went to city b, and my mother caught me back. What did you eat? "
"Yeah, the pea is yellow, the fire is burning, the donkey is rolling..." Shu Xia listed them one by one for him, and at the end, seeing him looking like he was about to drool, he couldn't help laughing out, "Wipe the drool, oops , as for what?"
"As for it, it turns out that business trips are so fun," Bai Meng sighed, "I must have followed you. It's a pity. I think I even want to go there on business trips."
"Business trips are not fun. My employees don't just hang out there every day," Shu Xia said with a smile. He opened the zipper, took out several boxes sealed with bags, pushed them to Baimeng's eyes and said, "I can't bring back those freshly made and eaten ones. I brought back some of these specialties that can be brought back. You can take it home and eat it, as for the others, if I am at home these days, I might try to make it, do you want to come over and try it?"
"That must be done." Bai Meng picked up a box, opened it, looked at the pastries inside, and wept with joy. After taking a bite, the whole person was in a particularly happy atmosphere, "Biao sister-in-law, you are really happy." Good man, great man."
Shu Xia is really immune to his good person card, but he got up, slapped away the paws of a few little tigers pulling the gift box and said, "You can't eat these, Chenchen can only eat a little, you know?" ?”
"Why?" Xiao Shangchen looked at his cousin Baimeng feasting on the sidelines, obviously not understanding why his brother was biased.
Shu Xia rubbed his head with a smile and said, "Because the taste is too strong, it's not good for children to eat too much."
Cakes and snacks are delicious, and the heavy taste can stimulate people's appetite, but adults are fine, children eat too much, and the burden on the body is not ordinary.
"Then cousin can eat, is it because he is an adult?" Xiao Shangchen found out the reason immediately, and pouted, "Then when I grow up, can I eat a lot of things my brother brought back?"
Shu Xia didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It's fine to eat enough, but it's not good to eat too much."
This guy Bai Meng has no restraint, but he can't let him spoil the children. Shu Xia took the box from Bai Meng's hand and said, "Eat less too, and be careful not to get fat."
Bai Meng wanted to argue, but looking at Xiao Shangchen staring at him closely, he understood that this was Shu Xia supporting the little guy, so he could only sigh in his heart, "Okay then, can I take it back with me? "
"Okay, I already have your share," Shu Xia sorted out his share, packed it in a bag, and packed the other shares separately. If he hadn't planned to bring something back when he went, he would bring something with him. The suitcase is big, so many things probably can't fit in it.
"Who did you bring this to?" Bai Meng asked seeing that he had divided up so many shares, which were too many.
"My mother's, and here's mother's, grandparents', Wang Zhi's, Lin Xian's." Shu Xia counted with her fingers. He always likes everyone to have them. When he brought them, he naturally thought of them. For these people, as for grandma, her old man can't eat these things. Shu Xia plans to make light taste ones by herself and send them over.
"And Lin Xian's?" Bai Meng looked excitedly at the share, his cousin didn't know about his relationship with Lin Xian, but in fact it was beneficial, that was the original one gift, his family could get two, it was simply Don't be too good.
"That's right, he is also my friend," Shu Xia said with a smile, "and this time I need to ask him for help..."
"Help? What can I help you with?" Bai Meng asked, remembering the phone call between Shu Xia and Lin Xian.
"My company's secrets, I won't tell you," Shu Xia's eyes flashed. He almost slipped his mouth just now, but luckily the topic changed quickly.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Bai Meng knew that he couldn't ask anything. It seemed that it really needed to be kept secret, and his cousin was keeping it so tight. By the way, for Lin Xian, I'll just bring him there."
"Are you on the way where he lives?" Shu Xia remembered that place, so it seemed that he was not on the way.
When Bai Meng said this sentence, he had already thought of the wording, "No, don't I often go to his house to play?"
"Go to his house to play? Play with Mangmang?" Shu Xia jokingly said, "I found out that your relationship with Lin Xian seems to be pretty good. When did it get so good?"
"It's about that incident before," Bai Meng thought. He wanted to let his cousin know about his relationship with Lin Xian. He had to do it subtly. Let him know that they had a good relationship first, and then slowly think of other ways. "Then I have a good relationship with Lin Mang, and we will get to know each other once we come and go."
"Oh, that matter," Shu Xia recalled what happened more than a year ago. If he said that, it's normal for Bai Meng and Lin Xian to have a good relationship. He took out one of them and said, "Then please Now, don't steal it halfway."
Bai Meng muttered, "How can I be so greedy."
Anyway, in the end, Lin Xian didn't eat it, and it still fell into his mouth, no problem.
Shu Xia's gift won unanimous praise from the recipients. Mama Bai didn't care what kind of praise he gave, but Mama Liu took his hand and sighed, "This dessert is really cleverly made. Our Xia Xia is really filial, unlike mine. Son and daughter, every time you go out, why don’t you think about bringing a gift for your mother.”
Shu Xia could only accept Liu's mother's praise with a smile, and hoped that the elder sister and the second brother would not be criticized, but unfortunately, he thought so, but Liu's mother didn't play the cards as he thought.
That night, the eldest sister Shang Qiang called, as always serious, asking why Shu Xia didn't bring her a gift when she went out.
Shu Xia could only helplessly say, "Sister, it's just some small gifts, special products."
The reason why he couldn't bring it was mainly because the box was really not big enough, and it didn't feel appropriate to give that kind of small gift specially to others. It was just a matter of trying to honor the elders.
"It doesn't matter, I don't dislike it," Shang Qiang said lightly, "Etiquette is light and affection is heavy, we are all a family, don't mind that kind of thing."
"I will definitely bring it next time." Shu Xia decided to bring it next time, just buy it all and send it in a package. No one will be short, and no one will be short.
"Well, if you need help with anything, feel free to ask me," Shang Qiang said to him, "You're welcome."
"Okay," Shu Xia smiled.
However, the phone here hung up, and Shang Hai called again, with a slight smile in his voice, "Sister-in-law, there is a gift from Baimeng for a business trip, why don't I have mine?"
Shu Xia "..."
Is this family all negotiated?
After Shu Xia repeatedly promised to bring them gifts next time she went out, she hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief.
I just don't know, who told him, Mother Liu?Still Baimeng.
In the magnificent main house as always, Ms. Liu smiled and said to the person on the phone, "Xia Xia is really caring. She knows how to bring gifts to her parents when she is on a business trip. Unlike you, when you went abroad, you never thought about it when you came back." us."
"He brought you a gift?" Shanglu's tone was serious.
Ms. Liu smiled and said, "That's right, so learn more about Xia Xia's filial piety, you know?"
"Well, hang up," Shang Lu agreed, and hung up the phone without hesitation.
The number at the top of the address book was dialed, Shu Xia looked at the name, inexplicably nervous when he saw the happy name in the past, and a bad premonition emerged in his heart, he connected the phone and said, "Hello, Phytophthora. "
"Well, Xia Xia, where is my gift?" Shang Lu pointed to the point.
Shu Xia "...what gift do you want?"
"I don't have the special products you brought for mom," he said in a straight tone, which made Shu Xia feel a little bit of grievance.
"I'll send it to you," Shu Xia helped her forehead helplessly.
"It's not the same batch brought back." A certain man was still not very satisfied. Obviously, he wasn't interested in the gift, but was upset that Shu Xia didn't bring him a copy.
Shu Xia said with a stern face, "Then do you still want it? Don't pull it down."
The more you live, the more you go back backwards! This is it!What do you think you are?For a three-year-old child, little Shang Chen is more sensible than him.
"Xia Xia, are you bullying me?" The man said with doubts.
Shu Xia immediately shuddered, remembering the consequences of bullying him last time, it was quite disastrous, such as the bed sheet and quilt cover, he didn't have the nerve to let others wash it, but in the end he washed it himself and dried it, let's do it again, Absolutely not!
"No, I meant that I planned to send it to you. Isn't the mail a bit slow?" Shu Xia's smiling face was almost stiff.
"Well," Shanglu was satisfied, "don't worry."
After a few phone calls, Shu Xia felt that she would have to bring a small notebook with her on business trips in the future, and write down everything she brought to anyone. Today's situation must never happen again.
There were a lot of presents, but the last one was from grandpa’s house, not snacks. It’s better for grandparents and grandma not to eat things that are high in sugar. What he brought was the little tripod that he brought back. .
He himself doesn't understand antique art, so when he put it here, he was surrounded by a few little tigers who were possessed by cat spirits. Destroy the thing while falling and making a hole in the floor.
In short, it is not safe to put it at home, especially in a home with many fur children.
It's better to give it to grandpa and the others. After all, when Shu Xia went there a few times ago, he saw a lot of antiques in grandpa's display cabinet.
It's just that when putting the small tripod into the box, Shu Xia accidentally took the string of Buddhist beads that came with it.
Grandma gave a very warm welcome to Shu Xia's arrival, not because Grandpa didn't welcome him, but because Shu Xia went at an inappropriate time.
Grandma smiled and beckoned him to sit down and said, "Your grandfather went to play chess with Lao Lin next door, and he will be back after dinner."
Grandma's guess was right, she really was the one who had lived with her all her life, but looking at her grandfather's unhappy expression, Shu Xia reckoned that he lost more and won less.
At this time, the wise way is not to ask how the battle is going. Shu Xia didn't ask, neither did grandma. After the three of them had dinner, Shu Xia put the box on the tea table and said, "Grandpa, this is a gift for you."
"Well, I'm still filial." Grandpa muttered while sipping tea, "I knew it would be impossible without me."
"Huh? What?" Shu Xia didn't hear his words clearly.
"It's nothing, what did you bring?" Grandpa Shang didn't look like Bai Meng, and he muttered in a level way. He opened the box and said, "I still use this kind of box to pack it."
However, after he saw the contents clearly, he didn't think the box was too good, but that Shu Xia's packaging was too simple. When he wanted to touch the small tripod, his fingers trembled. Authentic?"
Shu Xia smiled, "I don't know if it's true, so I want to ask Grandpa to have someone identify it."
If he went to someone to appraise it, the incompleteness would not be his own.
"Xiu Chen, bring me my gloves," Grandpa called Grandma by her boudoir name, but looked at the little cauldron with good eyes.
He carefully put on his gloves and took out the small tripod, put on his glasses and carefully looked at the lines on it, saying, "It can't be wrong, it can't be wrong, this is the real thing."
After some research, he was mesmerized, and when he finished putting the tripod back, he looked at Shu Xia and asked, "Where did you get this?"
This kind of good stuff has a price but no market, and you can't buy it with money. Don't grandson's daughter-in-law get it from a place like the black market, so follow-up questions have to check the source.
"I went to city b and bought it on the antique street," Shu Xia said with a smile, "I bought it from a regular store, so don't worry about it, grandpa."
This little tripod was given to him by the boss as a gift, and it wasn't even opened, and it wasn't even on the account. Even if the origin was really unknown, it had nothing to do with him.
"Well, it must cost a lot of money." Grandpa looked at the little cauldron very satisfied, and while talking to Shu Xia, he kept scanning from the corner of his eye, "How much did it cost, Grandpa will put it on for you."
Shu Xia was embarrassed, he couldn't hold back, rubbed his knuckles on his cheek and said, "Actually, this is a gift."
His level of lying can't even fool Shanglu, let alone grandpa, so at first, it's better to tell the truth.
Although it insults the value of this genuine product, a gift is a gift.
"Gift?" Grandpa's eyes widened for a moment, and when he was about to say who is so rich and powerful, he realized, "This is meeting a boss who doesn't know the goods. Hiss, granddaughter-in-law is lucky. He will give you whatever you bought this?"
Shu Xia opened the box next to it and pushed it over. The sallow bracelet was lying quietly inside. Grandpa picked it up and looked at it. His expression was serious, and he handed the bracelet to grandma and said, "Look at this .”
Grandma took it with a handkerchief, lit it up under the light and said, "This seems to be from topaz?"
"It seems that I'm not mistaken." Grandpa pondered for a moment, and asked Shu Xia who knew nothing beside him, "How much did you spend on this string of beads?"
Seeing their expressions, Shu Xia felt a little uneasy. Could it be that the fake Buddhist beads he thought were powered on? He said sincerely, "30."
"Sure enough, he is a lucky child," grandma laughed, put the Buddhist beads into the box, looked at Shu Xia's ignorant eyes and said with a smile, "Grandma has been looking at the jade for a lifetime, and I can't be wrong, this Buddhist beads belong to Hetian Huangyu. It is really rare to see such a big and neat one with the same color, this kind of topaz is equivalent to the value of suet jade, the size of the jade alone, the market valuation will not be lower than 300 million, 30 in absolute value."
Shu Xia was stunned, he remembered that when he was selling the fake goods, he threw them away and almost fell on the ground, but it turned out to be so expensive?
When was he so lucky.
"Then give this to grandma." Although Shu Xia understands the value of this, she is still not particularly interested in it. Although the beads are very elegant and can be worn by men, Shu Xia doesn't have this hobby either.
Since it is equivalent to sheep fat jade, it is almost priceless. Jade is definitely more precious as time goes on. The family is not short of money, so it is better to sell it than to collect it.
"Give it to me?" Grandma was a little surprised, and said with a smile, "Your grandpa already took one, but I can't take this one. I have a lot of Buddhist beads here. You can give them to your grandma or your mother." It's all right."
Shu Xia also thought about it, but grandma and her old man like to hang everything on the wall, hammer a nail, what kind of wooden bracelets, shell necklaces, strung pine nut shells, I guess this string of Buddhist beads will be sent over. , can not avoid such a fate.
As for his mother, at that time Liu's mother gave a set of jewelry, and grandma also gave it. His mother worshiped him for two days, and let him lock it in the bank safe. She kept it as a store of value and never wore it. Yes, send this string of Buddhist beads over, and lock it in the same way.
"They don't like to wear jewelry," Shu Xia sighed, and it's hard to explain how the two ladies in the family treat jewelry. If his mother and grandmother like to wear such expensive jewelry, Shu Xia would buy it now The problem is that those two are not interested in this.
"Okay then, let's put it here with grandma first." Grandma glanced at the string of Buddhist beads and said with a smile, "Whenever you want it, you can take it away."
"Okay," Shu Xia felt inexplicably relaxed, and said with a smile, "I'll see you off, you can do whatever you want."
"Good boy," grandma boasted with a smile.
Even though Shu Xia told the two old people not to tell this matter, Ms. Liu still knew about it.
It was one evening, and Wang Zhi came back from various places to check on him and reported the situation, "The store's traffic flow is good. I specially asked a passer-by to try the food, and asked him to deliberately criticize him. The taste and service attitude are good. Most of them Up to the standard, only two stores have problems."
"What?" Shu Xia looked at the indicators on the two stores, the service attitude and dishes were below average, and frowned, "What's the reason?"
"I heard that the waiters recruited by the owner of a store are all relatives, and if the service is not up to standard, they will let it go." Wang Zhi still remembers that the waiter stood at the door of the store knocking melon seeds and vomited all over the ground. He was in a bad mood here. Not to mention other customers.
"What about the other family?" Shu Xia frowned.
"The other one I suspect they made fake accounts," Wang Zhi said in a bad tone, "I have seen that many customers will pay to their private accounts, and some customers do not use the order machine when they go to order, but the waiter writes on the paper. I will report the food later."
Shu Xia's expression also became serious. If it is what Wang Zhi said, it's no wonder that the store's turnover is always failing. Shu Xia asked, "Is there any evidence?"
"Yes," Wang Zhi took out his mobile phone and said, "I had someone secretly take a picture of it, how can I solve it now?"
"The first one is okay." Shu Xia is not intolerable about recruiting relatives into the store. As long as the service is up to standard, it doesn't matter if you go through the back door. The first store only needs to be warned. As for the second store, Shu Xia Xia narrowed his eyes and said, "Pass the evidence to me, this kind of behavior is enough for them to go to court."
"Xia Xia," when the voice came from the door, Shu Xia looked up in a daze, and was a little surprised to see Ms. Liu coming in from the door.
The burgundy cheongsam she was wearing didn't look too gorgeous, on the contrary, she looked extraordinarily dignified because of the unique pattern on the cheongsam and the beads on her hand. Seeing Shu Xia looking over, she smiled and said, "I just finished attending the banquet, and said Did you come to see you and talk about things?"
Shu Xia nodded, looking at the prayer beads in her hand in a daze, that seemed to be it.
"My mother lent it to me. I heard it was given by Xia Xia," Ms. Liu said with a smile, "I only wear it for two days, don't mind."
The fiery kiss of the long-lost reunion, Shu Xia raised her head to bear the passion belonging to this man, and the inexplicable nightmare just now disappeared with this kiss.
But what did he dream about just now?Shu Xia thought about it carefully and couldn't figure it out, but in that dream, there seemed to be a kind of cold hands and feet imprisoned in the water, unable to exert strength, making people very desperate, and then awakened by Phytophthora's voice.
"It hurts..." Shu Xia turned her face away, and said in a sleepy voice, "Why did you bite me?"
"You're not serious," Shang Lu pinched his chin, looked at his cheek with the bathroom light and said, "Crying? Had a nightmare?"
"Huh?" Shu Xia touched the corner of her eyes, and after feeling a stream of moisture, she froze for a moment and said, "It shouldn't be."
He is not the kind of person who will cry when he encounters setbacks, but Shanglu's call made him feel redeemed. So, what kind of strange dream did he have?
No, the important thing is not what dream he had, but... "Why are you here?!" Shu Xia sat up, if it wasn't for Shang Lu's quick retreat, she almost hit his forehead "Why did you get into my room?" Inside? I remember I put the safety lock on."
"That kind of lock is useless," Shang Lu sat by his bed, looked at him and said, "You just want to ask me this when you see me?"
"Then what else are you asking?" Shu Xia hugged the quilt and yawned. The light next to him was on, so he didn't sleep well at all, and after running for a whole day, Shang Lu felt safe and sleepy. They also came up together, "You are here now, don't you need to go to class?"
"I have to leave at four o'clock for the plane tomorrow morning," Shanglu said, reaching out his hand and touching his cheek.
"Huh? Then why are you coming back this time?" Shu Xia's mind was still a little groggy, and she was not quite sober after shaking.
Shanglu's breath sank slightly, he got up and turned off the bathroom light, walked towards Shu Xia according to the light outside the window and said, "Do you remember what you did on the phone yesterday?"
Shu Xia was taken aback, and frightened inexplicably at the body coming towards him, what did he do when he called yesterday, oh, he took a shower, and he was very confident in a foreign country relying on a man, and now, people stood before him.
Shu Xia reached out and pushed his leaning chest, and said with a sneer, "You... listen to my explanation, there is actually a reason for this matter."
There is no reason at all, that is, he has been with those little tigers for a long time, cheap claws!
"I don't want to hear it," Shang Lu held his hand, leaned over and said in his ear, "The bathroom here is not clean, I'll let you off this time, and wait for me to go home next time..."
Then do I still have to thank you, Shu Xia complained in her heart.
The voice fell, the earlobe was bitten, Shu Xia subconsciously covered her ears, but she couldn't look left and right, and could only be burned by the scorching kiss.
In the darkness, only the dripping of sweat and the sound of the man's heavy breathing rang in my ears. It was warm and hot, a feeling completely different from that cold dream.
It's really great to have Shanglu here.
After one or two good feelings, the third time, it was not so good. Shu Xia refused and said, "Shanglu, I'm tired, don't you want to sleep for a while? Get up so early tomorrow."
"I fell asleep on the plane, not sleepy," Shang Lu kissed the corner of his lips and said, "If you are tired, you can sleep and leave me alone."
Shu Xia "..."
Who can fall asleep after being shaken all the time while sleeping, that's a hell of a thing.
"Let's discuss it," Shu Xia said kindly.
"There's no need to discuss it," Shang Lu rubbed the tip of his nose with him affectionately, "This time, it's considered merciful."
"Well……"
Facts have proved that a man who has been holding back for a long time cannot be teased casually, especially if he is not around, he will fall asleep in the end.
When the young man in his arms was wiped, there was no sign of waking up at all. Shang Lu looked at the damp quilt, frowned, turned over to cover him, and hugged him in his arms inside.
It is really inconvenient to go out, but next time, you can go to a high-quality couple suite, the environment there will be much better than here.
The young man in his arms was sleeping soundly, and the temperature of the air conditioner was turned on a little low. He groped in his arms and got more intimate. Shanglu looked at the time, it was two o'clock in the morning, the plane at 06:30 in the morning, four Start at [-]:[-], there is no traffic jam in the early morning, and two hours is enough to get to the airport.
Then there are only two hours left, and Shang Lu has no plans to sleep. They should have a good talk after seeing each other for such a long time, but when they meet someone, he just wants to get closer to him, get closer, and return When one is overwhelmed, one is already tired and falls asleep.
On the way here, two hours was very long, but at this moment, two hours passed in a flash. Before he had time to look at his Xia Xia twice, the time was almost up.
Feelings of reluctance rolled in his heart, Shang Lu was fortunate that Shu Xia fell asleep, so that he didn't have to face the situation of the first parting.
A soft kiss fell on the corner of his mouth, and the person in his arms murmured softly, "No more..."
"Okay, no more," Shanglu pulled out his arm, put on his clothes, touched his forehead hair, put the room card on his bedside, turned and walked out.
The door clicked and locked.
The lights in the corridor were on even at night. Shanglu walked to the blind corner of the surveillance and sent a text message. After a while, a man in plain clothes came over and stood in front of him.
"Xia Xia's mood is not right today. What happened during the day?" Shang Lu was a little confused about Shu Xia's mood when she just woke up. If it was just a nightmare, how could she cry? According to the dream, he must have encountered something to be like that.
"Madam met a few strike-ups during the day," the man standing opposite Shanglu reported, "then went to an antique shop and bought a censer, went out of the antique street and saw a shop, and then came back."
"The one who struck up a conversation?" Shang Lu's face darkened for a moment, "Is there anyone special?"
Although his Xia Xia was very upset about being approached by others, the problem probably lay with these few people.
But when he asked the question, the man opposite him froze. The boss just said that he had a few strike-ups. The problem was that the boss asked him like this, and he didn't know whether to say it or not.
He kept silent, and Shang Lu's expression of doubts sank completely, "It seems that there is? Why? You can't say it here? You know, people with two hearts can't be used here. of."
His breath was very cold, like a storm, since he stopped from the business district in City A, he had never felt such anger again, at least he had never seen it.
Sure enough, it was about Madam, the boss was not so solemn, the man sighed, and said before Shanglu's anger reached its peak, "Madam won't let us speak, but if he says what we said, he will fire us all."
Shang Lu was stunned for a moment, and the Qi he was going to achieve disappeared without a trace in an instant. He pinched his brows and said, "What he said doesn't count, you just need to report to me."
The man looked up at him, then turned his head and said, "Ma'am said, the sky is falling, and he is holding it up. If we say so, the pillow wind blows, and people will be gone. But if you offend the boss, he will pay us wages. "
It's the opposite of the sky. If someone else dares to do this, Shang Lu has a lot of tricks to deal with these people who are suspected of betrayal. The problem is that they are listening to Xia Xia's words now. As he said, Shang Lu really can't take him what to do.
I can't hit and beat, I can't scold and scold, I just want to coax and protect him, for fear that his life will not be satisfactory, for fear that he will be bullied by others.
But what is it that you want to hide from him?Shanglu thought for a while, but he didn't have a clue, but the subordinate in front of him was stunned, and his attitude was that he would not say anything if he was beaten to death.
"Okay, just look at the person you like, as long as the person is fine, you can do whatever you want," Shang Lu chose to give in, and Shu Xia wanted to solve one thing by himself, and he didn't want him to know, so he pretended not to know, the worst thing was that he ended up Can't solve it, he is cleaning up the mess for him.
But his Xia Xia, what is left behind, is not necessarily a mess.
"Yes, Boss," the man looked at him to check the time, then returned the same way, and disappeared after a while.
Shang Lu turned around and went downstairs, took a last look at the hotel, got into the car waiting at the door, closed the door and left.
Opening her eyes, the sky was bright. When Shu Xia yawned and wanted to sit up, she leaned back on her back and lay down again. With a hiss, she lay on the bed and stabbed someone's villain in her heart.
Every time I do it, I can't wait to finish the whole year, he is here and he can't run away, really.
Shu Xia turned over, touched the phone, it was already ten o'clock in the evening, the man must have left, Shu Xia was both reluctant and annoyed, he couldn't just come back to sleep, right?
Didn't he just tease him that day, and he came back specifically to teach him a lesson?
Don't look at the high mountains and the emperor's distance, that's not ancient times. After the front foot is finished, the back foot can be touched quietly.
I always feel that the man's narrow-mindedness increases exponentially after marriage.
What's more, if he can touch it, someone must have tipped him off. Shu Xia looked at the room card next to the bed, thinking about Xue Shao's inexplicable behavior last night and the previous phone call.
It’s my wife checking the post, hehe, he has a face, just colluding with him here, and then he can collude with Shanglu to pit him on the other side, supporting the wall on both sides. wall grass.
Shu Xia was very angry, so in the next few days in city b, Shu Xia didn't give Xue Shao a good look, but he acted like nothing happened, and reminded him very friendly, "Boss, how do you plan to arrange the live broadcast time next? "
Shu Xia "..."
Feeling angry for nothing.
In the survey of city b, Shu Xia investigated the taste, but the employees who came here had to collect data one by one in addition to the taste, customer flow, location selection, and the impression of Linlang here, which is definitely better than Shu Xia's. Xia, the boss, has been busy for many times.
And Shu Xia, under Xue Shao's arrangement, completely sold out the store in his previous life.
As for Song Ruiduan, when Shu Xia went to sign the contract, he almost bumped into him. The man was still in a suit and leather shoes, standing at the intersection where they met for the first time in this life, looking at something, smiling and looking at his gentle face with unknown coldness.
But his nature is like that, maybe people who meet him for the first time don’t understand and think he is gentle and easy to talk, but in fact, that person is not only cold in blood, but also cold in heart.
It's just a piece of stone, and if you hold it over your heart, you can still warm it up, but Song Ruiduan is not, he is an absolute egoist, he can treat you well when he likes it, but once he touches his bottom line, he violates him If he doesn't want to, then he will definitely not be the one who is unlucky.
And this kind of person has a problem, that is, the more he can't get it, the more he wants it. If something is out of his control, he will either regain control or destroy it.
Shu Xia hadn't contacted him since the day we parted. Fu Li's name was fake, there wasn't even a photo of him on the Internet, and there wasn't even a contact information. He was really capable of finding someone who could find him.
Song Ruiduan's coming here again was a proof of his reluctance, but in this world, how could everything go his way.
Shu Xia nodded Xue Shao's shoulder, and led the people away from the other side.
If you can't ask for it, let him look for it slowly, anyway, he is going back to City A.
After encountering Song Ruiduan's incident, Shu Xia quietly inquired about it at Shanglu, and was taught a long-winded lesson by the man for an hour. When going out, don't dress too nicely. Don't wear shorts when the weather is cold. After making sure that Xue Shao and those bodyguards did not report this matter to the man, he said helplessly, "In that case, you might as well lock me at home."
Shanglu was obviously stunned for a moment, and was eager to try, "Can I?"
"No!" With a black face, Shu Xia asked him to pull this thought out of his mind, chop it up, throw it into the toilet and flush it down, and never let it come back.
"It's very difficult, Xia Xia," Shang Lu followed his outline on the screen and said, "As soon as I saw you, I wanted to hide you."
Shu Xia pursed her lips, she didn't feel disgusted with herself, but she was really convinced by the sweet attitude in her heart.
"Well, then watch less," Shu Xia looked at the time and said, "Okay, I'm going to get on the plane, bye~"
After hanging up the phone, Shu Xia breathed a sigh of relief.
After returning from city b, Shu Xia, who was inspecting other cities, did not follow him. It was not because he didn't want to go, but to save time and improve efficiency. Several cities were sent in batches at the same time. Shu Xia only needed to review the final one. The result is fine.
However, this matter is not in a hurry. After searching for places, to expand, Shu Xia needs to readjust the taste of the recipes before investing in those places.
And on a business trip for a week, apart from those bad things and Shang Lu's unplanned behavior, what Shu Xia misses the most is the little bumps at home.
As soon as he came back, he was surrounded first, and a few little guys clinged to his body and called daddy, while Xiao Shangchen raised his face and asked, "Where did brother go? It's been a long time."
"Brother went to other places to work," Shu Xia patted his head, the little guy is keeping his human form for longer and longer now, "Chenchen misses brother?"
Xiao Shangchen nodded heavily and said, "My brother has been away for a long time, so he can't send me to kindergarten."
"Hey, hey, this hurts my heart," Bai Meng said while sitting on the sofa beside him, "At any rate, I also worked hard to pick you up and drop you off for a week. I woke up earlier than the chicken, and I fell asleep... Cough, Shu Xia ended up... As soon as you come back, you little guy will rebel."
"Thanks for your hard work." Shu Xia took Shang Chen's hand and sat down in front of the sofa, saluted and put it aside, lazily unwilling to pack up. "I was on a business trip for a week, and I found out that it's better to stay at home."
"Sister-in-law, what did you go on a business trip to city b?" Bai Meng was a little curious about this. As far as his current job is concerned, he spends his whole day looking at other people's plans, and the plans he makes are often the same. You have to pass Dad's approval.
Bai Meng himself felt nothing. He knew how much he was worth. If he wanted to manage the company well, of course it was not just by studying well. is the key.
Baimeng also knew that he was just talking on paper, doing some small planning projects, and slowly growing himself up. He really wanted to reach the sky and manage the entire company. He might have to go bankrupt and liquidate within a month.
The work is always in the office, and Baimeng has a different kind of curiosity about work like business trips.
"What are you doing? I went to eat." Shu Xia stretched her waist, smiled and said to him, "The snacks in city B are so good. When I went with Xue Shao, I was still lamenting that I didn't take you there. Otherwise, it must be very appetizing."
"Ah? So good, what did you eat?" Bai Meng asked involuntarily, pulling his sleeves, "I ate roast duck when I went to city b, and my mother caught me back. What did you eat? "
"Yeah, the pea is yellow, the fire is burning, the donkey is rolling..." Shu Xia listed them one by one for him, and at the end, seeing him looking like he was about to drool, he couldn't help laughing out, "Wipe the drool, oops , as for what?"
"As for it, it turns out that business trips are so fun," Bai Meng sighed, "I must have followed you. It's a pity. I think I even want to go there on business trips."
"Business trips are not fun. My employees don't just hang out there every day," Shu Xia said with a smile. He opened the zipper, took out several boxes sealed with bags, pushed them to Baimeng's eyes and said, "I can't bring back those freshly made and eaten ones. I brought back some of these specialties that can be brought back. You can take it home and eat it, as for the others, if I am at home these days, I might try to make it, do you want to come over and try it?"
"That must be done." Bai Meng picked up a box, opened it, looked at the pastries inside, and wept with joy. After taking a bite, the whole person was in a particularly happy atmosphere, "Biao sister-in-law, you are really happy." Good man, great man."
Shu Xia is really immune to his good person card, but he got up, slapped away the paws of a few little tigers pulling the gift box and said, "You can't eat these, Chenchen can only eat a little, you know?" ?”
"Why?" Xiao Shangchen looked at his cousin Baimeng feasting on the sidelines, obviously not understanding why his brother was biased.
Shu Xia rubbed his head with a smile and said, "Because the taste is too strong, it's not good for children to eat too much."
Cakes and snacks are delicious, and the heavy taste can stimulate people's appetite, but adults are fine, children eat too much, and the burden on the body is not ordinary.
"Then cousin can eat, is it because he is an adult?" Xiao Shangchen found out the reason immediately, and pouted, "Then when I grow up, can I eat a lot of things my brother brought back?"
Shu Xia didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It's fine to eat enough, but it's not good to eat too much."
This guy Bai Meng has no restraint, but he can't let him spoil the children. Shu Xia took the box from Bai Meng's hand and said, "Eat less too, and be careful not to get fat."
Bai Meng wanted to argue, but looking at Xiao Shangchen staring at him closely, he understood that this was Shu Xia supporting the little guy, so he could only sigh in his heart, "Okay then, can I take it back with me? "
"Okay, I already have your share," Shu Xia sorted out his share, packed it in a bag, and packed the other shares separately. If he hadn't planned to bring something back when he went, he would bring something with him. The suitcase is big, so many things probably can't fit in it.
"Who did you bring this to?" Bai Meng asked seeing that he had divided up so many shares, which were too many.
"My mother's, and here's mother's, grandparents', Wang Zhi's, Lin Xian's." Shu Xia counted with her fingers. He always likes everyone to have them. When he brought them, he naturally thought of them. For these people, as for grandma, her old man can't eat these things. Shu Xia plans to make light taste ones by herself and send them over.
"And Lin Xian's?" Bai Meng looked excitedly at the share, his cousin didn't know about his relationship with Lin Xian, but in fact it was beneficial, that was the original one gift, his family could get two, it was simply Don't be too good.
"That's right, he is also my friend," Shu Xia said with a smile, "and this time I need to ask him for help..."
"Help? What can I help you with?" Bai Meng asked, remembering the phone call between Shu Xia and Lin Xian.
"My company's secrets, I won't tell you," Shu Xia's eyes flashed. He almost slipped his mouth just now, but luckily the topic changed quickly.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Bai Meng knew that he couldn't ask anything. It seemed that it really needed to be kept secret, and his cousin was keeping it so tight. By the way, for Lin Xian, I'll just bring him there."
"Are you on the way where he lives?" Shu Xia remembered that place, so it seemed that he was not on the way.
When Bai Meng said this sentence, he had already thought of the wording, "No, don't I often go to his house to play?"
"Go to his house to play? Play with Mangmang?" Shu Xia jokingly said, "I found out that your relationship with Lin Xian seems to be pretty good. When did it get so good?"
"It's about that incident before," Bai Meng thought. He wanted to let his cousin know about his relationship with Lin Xian. He had to do it subtly. Let him know that they had a good relationship first, and then slowly think of other ways. "Then I have a good relationship with Lin Mang, and we will get to know each other once we come and go."
"Oh, that matter," Shu Xia recalled what happened more than a year ago. If he said that, it's normal for Bai Meng and Lin Xian to have a good relationship. He took out one of them and said, "Then please Now, don't steal it halfway."
Bai Meng muttered, "How can I be so greedy."
Anyway, in the end, Lin Xian didn't eat it, and it still fell into his mouth, no problem.
Shu Xia's gift won unanimous praise from the recipients. Mama Bai didn't care what kind of praise he gave, but Mama Liu took his hand and sighed, "This dessert is really cleverly made. Our Xia Xia is really filial, unlike mine. Son and daughter, every time you go out, why don’t you think about bringing a gift for your mother.”
Shu Xia could only accept Liu's mother's praise with a smile, and hoped that the elder sister and the second brother would not be criticized, but unfortunately, he thought so, but Liu's mother didn't play the cards as he thought.
That night, the eldest sister Shang Qiang called, as always serious, asking why Shu Xia didn't bring her a gift when she went out.
Shu Xia could only helplessly say, "Sister, it's just some small gifts, special products."
The reason why he couldn't bring it was mainly because the box was really not big enough, and it didn't feel appropriate to give that kind of small gift specially to others. It was just a matter of trying to honor the elders.
"It doesn't matter, I don't dislike it," Shang Qiang said lightly, "Etiquette is light and affection is heavy, we are all a family, don't mind that kind of thing."
"I will definitely bring it next time." Shu Xia decided to bring it next time, just buy it all and send it in a package. No one will be short, and no one will be short.
"Well, if you need help with anything, feel free to ask me," Shang Qiang said to him, "You're welcome."
"Okay," Shu Xia smiled.
However, the phone here hung up, and Shang Hai called again, with a slight smile in his voice, "Sister-in-law, there is a gift from Baimeng for a business trip, why don't I have mine?"
Shu Xia "..."
Is this family all negotiated?
After Shu Xia repeatedly promised to bring them gifts next time she went out, she hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief.
I just don't know, who told him, Mother Liu?Still Baimeng.
In the magnificent main house as always, Ms. Liu smiled and said to the person on the phone, "Xia Xia is really caring. She knows how to bring gifts to her parents when she is on a business trip. Unlike you, when you went abroad, you never thought about it when you came back." us."
"He brought you a gift?" Shanglu's tone was serious.
Ms. Liu smiled and said, "That's right, so learn more about Xia Xia's filial piety, you know?"
"Well, hang up," Shang Lu agreed, and hung up the phone without hesitation.
The number at the top of the address book was dialed, Shu Xia looked at the name, inexplicably nervous when he saw the happy name in the past, and a bad premonition emerged in his heart, he connected the phone and said, "Hello, Phytophthora. "
"Well, Xia Xia, where is my gift?" Shang Lu pointed to the point.
Shu Xia "...what gift do you want?"
"I don't have the special products you brought for mom," he said in a straight tone, which made Shu Xia feel a little bit of grievance.
"I'll send it to you," Shu Xia helped her forehead helplessly.
"It's not the same batch brought back." A certain man was still not very satisfied. Obviously, he wasn't interested in the gift, but was upset that Shu Xia didn't bring him a copy.
Shu Xia said with a stern face, "Then do you still want it? Don't pull it down."
The more you live, the more you go back backwards! This is it!What do you think you are?For a three-year-old child, little Shang Chen is more sensible than him.
"Xia Xia, are you bullying me?" The man said with doubts.
Shu Xia immediately shuddered, remembering the consequences of bullying him last time, it was quite disastrous, such as the bed sheet and quilt cover, he didn't have the nerve to let others wash it, but in the end he washed it himself and dried it, let's do it again, Absolutely not!
"No, I meant that I planned to send it to you. Isn't the mail a bit slow?" Shu Xia's smiling face was almost stiff.
"Well," Shanglu was satisfied, "don't worry."
After a few phone calls, Shu Xia felt that she would have to bring a small notebook with her on business trips in the future, and write down everything she brought to anyone. Today's situation must never happen again.
There were a lot of presents, but the last one was from grandpa’s house, not snacks. It’s better for grandparents and grandma not to eat things that are high in sugar. What he brought was the little tripod that he brought back. .
He himself doesn't understand antique art, so when he put it here, he was surrounded by a few little tigers who were possessed by cat spirits. Destroy the thing while falling and making a hole in the floor.
In short, it is not safe to put it at home, especially in a home with many fur children.
It's better to give it to grandpa and the others. After all, when Shu Xia went there a few times ago, he saw a lot of antiques in grandpa's display cabinet.
It's just that when putting the small tripod into the box, Shu Xia accidentally took the string of Buddhist beads that came with it.
Grandma gave a very warm welcome to Shu Xia's arrival, not because Grandpa didn't welcome him, but because Shu Xia went at an inappropriate time.
Grandma smiled and beckoned him to sit down and said, "Your grandfather went to play chess with Lao Lin next door, and he will be back after dinner."
Grandma's guess was right, she really was the one who had lived with her all her life, but looking at her grandfather's unhappy expression, Shu Xia reckoned that he lost more and won less.
At this time, the wise way is not to ask how the battle is going. Shu Xia didn't ask, neither did grandma. After the three of them had dinner, Shu Xia put the box on the tea table and said, "Grandpa, this is a gift for you."
"Well, I'm still filial." Grandpa muttered while sipping tea, "I knew it would be impossible without me."
"Huh? What?" Shu Xia didn't hear his words clearly.
"It's nothing, what did you bring?" Grandpa Shang didn't look like Bai Meng, and he muttered in a level way. He opened the box and said, "I still use this kind of box to pack it."
However, after he saw the contents clearly, he didn't think the box was too good, but that Shu Xia's packaging was too simple. When he wanted to touch the small tripod, his fingers trembled. Authentic?"
Shu Xia smiled, "I don't know if it's true, so I want to ask Grandpa to have someone identify it."
If he went to someone to appraise it, the incompleteness would not be his own.
"Xiu Chen, bring me my gloves," Grandpa called Grandma by her boudoir name, but looked at the little cauldron with good eyes.
He carefully put on his gloves and took out the small tripod, put on his glasses and carefully looked at the lines on it, saying, "It can't be wrong, it can't be wrong, this is the real thing."
After some research, he was mesmerized, and when he finished putting the tripod back, he looked at Shu Xia and asked, "Where did you get this?"
This kind of good stuff has a price but no market, and you can't buy it with money. Don't grandson's daughter-in-law get it from a place like the black market, so follow-up questions have to check the source.
"I went to city b and bought it on the antique street," Shu Xia said with a smile, "I bought it from a regular store, so don't worry about it, grandpa."
This little tripod was given to him by the boss as a gift, and it wasn't even opened, and it wasn't even on the account. Even if the origin was really unknown, it had nothing to do with him.
"Well, it must cost a lot of money." Grandpa looked at the little cauldron very satisfied, and while talking to Shu Xia, he kept scanning from the corner of his eye, "How much did it cost, Grandpa will put it on for you."
Shu Xia was embarrassed, he couldn't hold back, rubbed his knuckles on his cheek and said, "Actually, this is a gift."
His level of lying can't even fool Shanglu, let alone grandpa, so at first, it's better to tell the truth.
Although it insults the value of this genuine product, a gift is a gift.
"Gift?" Grandpa's eyes widened for a moment, and when he was about to say who is so rich and powerful, he realized, "This is meeting a boss who doesn't know the goods. Hiss, granddaughter-in-law is lucky. He will give you whatever you bought this?"
Shu Xia opened the box next to it and pushed it over. The sallow bracelet was lying quietly inside. Grandpa picked it up and looked at it. His expression was serious, and he handed the bracelet to grandma and said, "Look at this .”
Grandma took it with a handkerchief, lit it up under the light and said, "This seems to be from topaz?"
"It seems that I'm not mistaken." Grandpa pondered for a moment, and asked Shu Xia who knew nothing beside him, "How much did you spend on this string of beads?"
Seeing their expressions, Shu Xia felt a little uneasy. Could it be that the fake Buddhist beads he thought were powered on? He said sincerely, "30."
"Sure enough, he is a lucky child," grandma laughed, put the Buddhist beads into the box, looked at Shu Xia's ignorant eyes and said with a smile, "Grandma has been looking at the jade for a lifetime, and I can't be wrong, this Buddhist beads belong to Hetian Huangyu. It is really rare to see such a big and neat one with the same color, this kind of topaz is equivalent to the value of suet jade, the size of the jade alone, the market valuation will not be lower than 300 million, 30 in absolute value."
Shu Xia was stunned, he remembered that when he was selling the fake goods, he threw them away and almost fell on the ground, but it turned out to be so expensive?
When was he so lucky.
"Then give this to grandma." Although Shu Xia understands the value of this, she is still not particularly interested in it. Although the beads are very elegant and can be worn by men, Shu Xia doesn't have this hobby either.
Since it is equivalent to sheep fat jade, it is almost priceless. Jade is definitely more precious as time goes on. The family is not short of money, so it is better to sell it than to collect it.
"Give it to me?" Grandma was a little surprised, and said with a smile, "Your grandpa already took one, but I can't take this one. I have a lot of Buddhist beads here. You can give them to your grandma or your mother." It's all right."
Shu Xia also thought about it, but grandma and her old man like to hang everything on the wall, hammer a nail, what kind of wooden bracelets, shell necklaces, strung pine nut shells, I guess this string of Buddhist beads will be sent over. , can not avoid such a fate.
As for his mother, at that time Liu's mother gave a set of jewelry, and grandma also gave it. His mother worshiped him for two days, and let him lock it in the bank safe. She kept it as a store of value and never wore it. Yes, send this string of Buddhist beads over, and lock it in the same way.
"They don't like to wear jewelry," Shu Xia sighed, and it's hard to explain how the two ladies in the family treat jewelry. If his mother and grandmother like to wear such expensive jewelry, Shu Xia would buy it now The problem is that those two are not interested in this.
"Okay then, let's put it here with grandma first." Grandma glanced at the string of Buddhist beads and said with a smile, "Whenever you want it, you can take it away."
"Okay," Shu Xia felt inexplicably relaxed, and said with a smile, "I'll see you off, you can do whatever you want."
"Good boy," grandma boasted with a smile.
Even though Shu Xia told the two old people not to tell this matter, Ms. Liu still knew about it.
It was one evening, and Wang Zhi came back from various places to check on him and reported the situation, "The store's traffic flow is good. I specially asked a passer-by to try the food, and asked him to deliberately criticize him. The taste and service attitude are good. Most of them Up to the standard, only two stores have problems."
"What?" Shu Xia looked at the indicators on the two stores, the service attitude and dishes were below average, and frowned, "What's the reason?"
"I heard that the waiters recruited by the owner of a store are all relatives, and if the service is not up to standard, they will let it go." Wang Zhi still remembers that the waiter stood at the door of the store knocking melon seeds and vomited all over the ground. He was in a bad mood here. Not to mention other customers.
"What about the other family?" Shu Xia frowned.
"The other one I suspect they made fake accounts," Wang Zhi said in a bad tone, "I have seen that many customers will pay to their private accounts, and some customers do not use the order machine when they go to order, but the waiter writes on the paper. I will report the food later."
Shu Xia's expression also became serious. If it is what Wang Zhi said, it's no wonder that the store's turnover is always failing. Shu Xia asked, "Is there any evidence?"
"Yes," Wang Zhi took out his mobile phone and said, "I had someone secretly take a picture of it, how can I solve it now?"
"The first one is okay." Shu Xia is not intolerable about recruiting relatives into the store. As long as the service is up to standard, it doesn't matter if you go through the back door. The first store only needs to be warned. As for the second store, Shu Xia Xia narrowed his eyes and said, "Pass the evidence to me, this kind of behavior is enough for them to go to court."
"Xia Xia," when the voice came from the door, Shu Xia looked up in a daze, and was a little surprised to see Ms. Liu coming in from the door.
The burgundy cheongsam she was wearing didn't look too gorgeous, on the contrary, she looked extraordinarily dignified because of the unique pattern on the cheongsam and the beads on her hand. Seeing Shu Xia looking over, she smiled and said, "I just finished attending the banquet, and said Did you come to see you and talk about things?"
Shu Xia nodded, looking at the prayer beads in her hand in a daze, that seemed to be it.
"My mother lent it to me. I heard it was given by Xia Xia," Ms. Liu said with a smile, "I only wear it for two days, don't mind."
