The waiter looked at Fan Qiang with no surprise and said, "If you don't have an appointment, please wait for your number to be called. Who are you?"

The owner of their store is young and from a foreign country. From time to time, someone who claims to be a fellow comes to look for a job, but none of them are really fellows. He has even met those who are tens of miles away and claim to be from the same village. .For this matter, he was trained twice by the foreman Li Hongying, and he would be fined if he was put in again.

And today was the first time I heard someone calling himself "brother". Their boss had never heard of a real brother except for calling Mr. Fang and those young master friends "brother".

Fan Qiang was stunned and wanted to get angry, but he saw that the people eating in the hall were all well-dressed, and even when they were chatting, they lowered their voices spontaneously, looking very dignified. Among them, he knew a customer who was talking about friends with Tang Liu before. Having met the other party, it is said that they are veteran cadres who have retired from the front line. They are all prominent figures. He quickly said patiently, "I am his brother, and I am looking for him."

The waiter also had a good temper and a formulaic smile: "May I ask your name, please?"

Fan Qiang: "Fan Qiang, his brother."

The waiter nodded and made people wait, and went to the backyard to find Fan Jie.The kitchen is an important place, and even the food handlers cannot easily enter. The helpers in the kitchen will push the prepared dishes to the people in the front hall with carts.Fan Jie said it was for the sake of confidentiality, everyone has no objection, it is enough for everyone to take care of their own work, and it is just right for each to take care of one piece.

Fan Jie stayed in the kitchen without class today, discussing the opening menu of "North One Residence" with the old chef of "North One Residence".

Seeing this, the thin man stopped Fan Jie and said, "Why don't you go, I'll go?"

The master chef of 'Beiyiju' didn't know what happened, put away the menu and said: "Fanfan also has brothers, come over and have a look, Fanfan, you are busy."

Fan Jie never puts on airs in the store, and he doesn't scold people easily. He especially respects these masters. After getting along with Fan Jie for a long time, these masters also began to affectionately call Fan Jie "fanfan".

The thin man shook his head anxiously, Fan Jie smiled and said, "Brother thin, I can't see him like this, it's good to meet him, I just want to make it clear to him."

After Fan Jie finished speaking, he left the kitchen and asked the waiter to invite him to the middle courtyard. After washing his hands, he saw that his uncle had also come, and quickly said, "Uncle, don't go."

Fan Guoqi snorted, "Fanfan, it's not easy for us to make money. You're greedy in the morning and late at night, you see you look so bad and you still have to go to the kitchen, money can't be wasted."

Fan Jie just smiled and went to the middle courtyard. Fan Qiang had already arrived and was standing by the pool with his hands behind his back looking at the koi inside. When he heard Fan Jie call his name, he looked up and down displeasedly at Fan Jie.

Fan Jie sat in the rattan chair and asked, "You have something to do with me."

Fan Qiang: "Fan Jie, I'll just ask you, what's the point of you running to my leader and talking nonsense?"

Fan Jie grabbed a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it, took another sip of scented tea, and then said: "I just let people see what's wrong with our decoration. The decoration team reported for approval according to the procedure. You said it didn't meet the requirements." If there is a problem with the program, of course I will ask the experts to see what needs to be changed.”

Fan Jie's words made Fan Qiang speechless.Fan Qiang didn't care about it at all, but the future is important. He wanted to see Fan Qiang and talk about it, and let Fan Jie go to their leader to talk about turning things around, and the matter would be over.It's a pity that he never took Fan Jie seriously. Even if he wanted to say something nice, he couldn't help putting on his previous airs when he saw Fan Jie. No matter who was right or who was wrong, he was justified.

But now it's not as good as before. At that time, Fan Jie was still the adopted son of their family, he didn't tear his face, and he was soft-tempered, but now Fan Jie has nothing to do with their family, and made it impossible for their family to live in the family area , Fan Qiang can only blame the world for changing.

Seeing that Fan Qiang was silent, Fan Jie blushed. Standing there, he picked up the sweet-scented osmanthus cake and said lazily, "Is there anything else?"

Fan Qiang gritted his teeth with hatred, and was embarrassed to make a fuss here. This store was quite different from the first time he came here. Whoever spread it to the leader's ears, it was a joke for no reason.

Fan Jie: "It just so happens that I have something to tell you, and I don't want to take care of your business. Can we do it in the future?"

Fan Qiang looked at Fan Jie in a daze. Is this the fan, the fan he knew?Even if Fan Jie left their house, he never thought that Fan Jie could make a name for himself. He is a college student and has a solid job. It's fine if Fan Jie leaves. Everything in the house belongs to him. He can't wait for Fan Jie Fuck off.

Who knew that Feng Shui would take turns, and this Fan Jie would be so patient that he dared to challenge him?He was not reconciled, and said with a thick throat: "You are such a white-eyed wolf, my family supports you..."

Fan Jie: "We went to the notary to terminate the relationship. Please don't mention this matter in the future. My uncle has given everything that should be paid, and we don't owe your family anything."

Fan Qiang was holding back his face flushed, and he stepped forward to shout something, but seeing Fan Jie standing up, his thin body was half a head taller than him, he couldn't help but took two steps back, "What are you doing? You want to hit someone, Is this unreasonable? You want to hit someone?"

Fan Jie glanced at Fan Qiang and stretched his waist, his arms were dangling in front of Fan Qiang's eyes. Fan Qiang was just as he thought, a pretentious bully and a bully.It's no wonder that Tang Liu wanted to dump Fan Qiang. Once this kind of person climbed up, he might be disowned by his relatives.

Fan Jie: "Fan Qiang has to be responsible for everything he does and says. If you make up me again in front of outsiders, I can sue you for defamation. If you want to make trouble here, I will call the police. I am open for business. Yes, when you come to make trouble, you will go to the police station, you have a job and a unit, you have to think about the consequences yourself."

Fan Qiang clenched his fists and didn't dare to yell. He lowered his head and said, "Fan Jie, I have called you my brother for more than ten years. You can't treat me like this. I was suspended, do you know? This year's outstanding It's all over, what am I going to do in the future?"

Fan Jie: "Did I ask you to deliberately make things difficult for others? Why don't you think about how much I will pay if the store can't open? How many people in my store will face unemployment because the store can't open! Many of them are procrastinators. You have a loss and come to me to vent your anger, those who have worked so hard to prepare to open the business, how much did they lose! Fan Qiang was provoked by you, so don't cause trouble if you are not prepared to bear the consequences!"

Fan Qiang was suffocated and couldn't speak, and couldn't reply. Looking left and right, many waiters in the store were slashing at him with knives. He lowered his head and softened his voice unwillingly: "Me too. For the sake of your store, there is nothing wrong with checking more, in case something goes wrong when you open..."

Fan Jie scolded angrily: "Fan Qiang, you really look like your mother, you curse me before I open my business."

Fan Qiang couldn't say the soft words that followed, he would never be so outrageous when speaking to other people, what happened to him today, the weather is too hot and his brain is not working?

Fan Jie waved his hand: "Come on, don't talk about it, I can't control what your leaders want to do with you, that's your unit's business, I can't help you."

Fan Qiang turned around angrily and wanted to leave. He shouldn't have walked like this. He could see clearly that Fan Jie was not as good as before. Fan Jie hated their family to the core. Find a way to go to the leader's house at night and have some money in the passbook, so that's all I can do.

Just as he was about to leave, he saw a person standing in the corridor not far away, looking at them.

Tang Yiqiu stood aside and watched for a long time, shaking his head constantly. He had heard Tang Liu mention Fan Qiang at the beginning. Of course, Tang Liu's remarks must have been exaggerated. Knowing Fan Qiang's character, he couldn't help but feel at ease. If Tang Liu didn't dump Fan Qiang, he would have a good talk with Tang Liu about what it means to be a "little person who doesn't know etiquette, justice and shame".

Seeing Tang Yiqiu coming, Fan Jie quickly gave up his seat and said, "Mr. Tang, why are you here? Xiao Li in the front hall didn't give you a seat."

It's not good for outsiders to enter the front hall without notifying them.

Tang Yiqiu smiled: "I am familiar with this place and don't need to lead the way, and I don't like being followed, so I didn't disturb your conversation."

Fan Qiang had never met Tang Yiqiu before, and he didn't know that this was Tang Liu's uncle. He only looked Tang Yiqiu up and down, feeling a little guilty.The guests Fan Jie entertained were all of such high status, they seemed to be either rich or expensive, and the two of them seemed to be very familiar, but the anger in their hearts actually calmed down. kill him!

Fan Qiang greeted vaguely and wanted to leave, but Tang Yiqiu stopped him, "Fan Qiang, your name is Fan Qiang."

Fan Qiang responded, feeling that such a respectable person could know his name, and his heart softened like the frozen ground in early spring, which was very beautiful.

Tang Yiqiu nodded and sat down, and said, "Tang Liu is my niece. I have heard a lot about you from Xiao Liu."

When Fan Qiang heard it, he just felt that there was some drama. This person was Tang Liu's uncle. Hearing Tang Liu said that her uncle was abroad all year round and never asked about family affairs, she admired him quite a bit. The smile on the face was like a flower blooming, and he quickly called out: "Uncle..."

Tang Yiqiu glanced coldly, and the surrounding temperature suddenly dropped a few points. Fan Jie sat on the side and asked someone to come over for a new tea, and said: "Mr. Tang, drink tea! The best tribute chrysanthemum, clears the fire and relieves heat."

Tang Yiqiu: "I am very grateful to you for helping me find the jade pendant, but was the jade pendant really lost, or did something else happen?"

Seeing that Fan Jie was right in front of him, Fan Qiang couldn't lie, so he didn't say a word.

Tang Yiqiu hummed, and continued to ask: "Fanfan, does your family have a jade pendant in the shape of a lotus flower?"

Fan Jie looked at Fan Qiang, he didn't want to help Fan Qiang hide something, his jade pendant was left by his father whom he had never met, he just casually said: "There is a piece, but it is lost."

Tang Yiqiu frowned, and asked nervously: "Lost it? What kind, do you remember? What color?"

Fan Jie laughed and said, "I really don't remember. Mr. Tang, you talk about it." He didn't want to get along with these two participants, they were all thinking about his jade pendant.

Both Mr. Tang and Fan Qiang were outsiders. The two almost became relatives. Fan Jie felt a little awkward anyway.Anyway, his goal has been achieved, he has nothing to do here, instead of listening to the nonsense of the two of them here, it is better to talk to the master about the menu.

After Fan Jie left, Tang Yiqiu's expression changed a lot, and he asked Fan Qiang about the pendant with a cold face, Fan Qiang only said that he really lost it, if Uncle Tang knew he was cheating, then it would be fine!Since Fan Jie didn't say to give him a step down, why should he ask for trouble.

Tang Yiqiu: "I know everything about Fan Qiang and your family. You are a dignified college student, don't you remember how to write the word 'honesty'?"

Fan Qiang's body trembled, wondering if Fan Jie had said something in front of others?

Tang Yiqiu: "Don't go looking for Xiaoliu in the future, and don't come here either. Also, your mother is old enough to rest at home and don't run around. This is not a small city, do you understand?"

Fan Qiang repeatedly responded that Tang Yiqiu was too rich to even please their leader, if he wanted to continue messing around, he couldn't offend this person.

Tang Yiqiu waved his hands like chasing flies and said, "Let's go."

Fan Qiang left immediately, he wouldn't come to this ghostly place even if he was invited to come here in the future!He figured it out, no one in Fan Jie's shop was easy to get along with, and the prices on the menu were enough for ordinary people, and no fool would come to have a big meal and be hungry for a month.The people who come here are probably as virtuous as Tang Yiqiu, with money in their pockets and free time.

……

Fan Jie knew that Fan Qiang was soft today and he didn't want to see him again in the future. As for Fan Qiang's work problem, he never thought of intervening. If he can't afford to concentrate on researching technical majors, this person is not far behind. In a few years, he will take a certified book, and he will pay for it. It depends on how Fan Qiang chooses.

He can't control other people's fate, but his own fate must be firmly grasped in his hands. He has lived a life of being at the mercy of others, and he feels tired even thinking about it, and his chest feels tight.

Fan Guoqi had been standing in the backyard waiting for Fan Jie, seeing Fan Jie's complexion, he quickly asked, "What's wrong, what's wrong?"

Fan Jie swallowed, his stomach was sour, he could only say: "I'm just tired, uncle, let me go to bed, that Mr. Tang is here."

Fan Guoqi: "He's here again? This guy likes to join in the fun."

Fan Jie: ...

Fan Guoqi stared at Fan Jie going back to sleep, walked to the pool in the central courtyard and looked at Tang Yiqiu: "Mr. Tang is here, is it still the same today?"

Where is Tang Yiqiu sulking? Why did his niece miss him?After finding such a thing as a friend, it's a good thing to turn around in time, otherwise the Tang family will lose all face!He was thinking about it, but Fan Guoqi's voice brought him back to his senses, and he quickly put on a gentle smile and said, "It's the same as usual. What's wrong with Fanfan? I think he doesn't look well, do you want to call a doctor?"

Fan Guoqi: "It's okay, it's just that the kitchen is stuffy and hot, the dishes have high temperature requirements, and the air conditioner is not easy to use. Maybe it's stuffy, so I went back to the house to rest."

Tang Yiqiu nodded and the two exchanged polite words, Tang Yiqiu felt strange, this Fan Guoqi hid whenever he saw him, how could he move forward today?

Fan Guoqi: "Fanfan just made Daoneng Wufa dessert, do you want to try it, I think you are not very old, you have gray hair."

Tang Yiqiu touched the top of his head, and couldn't help but think that it's fortunate that he's not bald, otherwise he wouldn't have white hair and wouldn't be able to talk to people, so he quickly said, "You must try it."

Fan Guoqi smiled, looked around and said, "Oh, your white hair is too dazzling, let me pull it out for you!"

Tang Yiqiu: "???"

Fan Guoqi smiled more gently: "Why don't you pull it out yourself, it's too conspicuous in a piece of black hair."

Tang Yiqiu touched the top of his head, "This?"

Fan Guo nodded and said: "Uprooting, uprooting is useful, and once the root is cut off, it cannot grow back."

Tang Yiqiu pulled out one and put it on the coffee table with the idea of ​​letting go of his hair for the sake of cliche. Fan Guoqi looked at it and shook his head: "Wrong, this one is black. It's next to the place just now."

Tang Yiqiu pulled out several hairs but couldn't find the white ones. Fan Guoqi picked up the strands of hair on the coffee table and said, "I lost it for you. It's not good to leave it to be blown by the wind. Hehe, I'm sorry, I see If you miss it, it’s actually a reflection.”

Tang Yiqiu stared at him with anger, and said to his heart that you, Fan Guoqi, lied to me to pull out my hair for fun, but this hair can't be pulled out in vain, so he could only hold back his anger and asked: "I heard Fan Qiang said that your family has a piece of hair. Is it a jade pendant?"

Fan Guoqi: "What jade pendant?"

Tang Yiqiu picked up his teacup and said slowly, "I know you know me."

Fan Guoqi: "Indeed, I know you even when you turned into ashes."

Tang Yiqiu felt ashamed and couldn't argue with Fan Guoxi, so he could only ask: "You are Guoxi's younger brother, Fan Jie is Guoxi's son, Guoxi didn't give him a lotus jade pendant?"

Fan Guoqi: "Hehe... I don't know."

Tang Yiqiu was right when he thought about it, the jade pendant was carved by Fan Guoxi himself after he arrived in City B, it is not surprising that Fan Guoqi had never seen it before.

Fan Guoqi pinched his hair, and asked twitchingly, "Mr. Tang, I want to inquire about something. My brother didn't come home after visiting you. What happened?"

Tang Yiqiu sighed, leaning on the back of the chair seemed to be lost in memory, and said for a long time: "Your brother wanted to earn some money for you to go to the doctor. He said that you were in poor health when you were young, so he was afraid that it would delay your future marriage and career. At that time, there was a shortage of workers in a factory here, so he went to work and prepared to save some money to go back.”

Fan Guoqi asked, "What happened later?"

Tang Yiqiu didn't say anything more, he couldn't say what happened later.

At the beginning, he followed others to the countryside to support the construction, met Fan Guoxi, took a liking to him, and coaxed him into his hands with shamelessness.After the family regained their vitality, the entrusting person transferred him back and wanted to take Fan Guoxi with him, but Fan Guoxi was unwilling and reluctant to part with his family.He persuaded him for a long time, but Fan Guoxi didn't agree, until he sent letters to Fan Guoxi day by day, and Fan Guoxi finally moved to City B.

Fan Guoxi has been in poor health since he came to City B. He said that he was not acclimatized to the environment and was taking medicine every day. If it wasn't for the long-distance travel, Fan Guoxi would have returned to Fan's house long ago.Tang Yiqiu didn't live in the same family, and the two of them were renting a house outside without being discovered. It's just that Tang Yiqiu's livelihood was all on Tang Yiqiu's life, and life was hard enough to be fulfilling. When Fan Guoxi was in better health, there happened to be a factory recruiting workers. Tang Yiqiu Qiu procrastinated and sent Fan Guoxi there. The job was easy and he could earn some money, so that Fan Guoxi could have a say when he returned to Fan's house.

The two of them were living a good life, but who knew that they were discovered by the family. This is a treasonous thing. The family was already hurt. They just turned over and expected the younger generation to get ahead, but they would make trouble.

When he was young, he had a bad temper and told his family that he would rather sever the relationship with the family than break up. The family simply shut him up until Fan Guoxi asked him to return the jade pendant of love, and he finally agreed to break up.

Later, the family members said that they did not treat Fan Guoxi badly, and the man took a lot of money to leave. The family members told him to be more careful, saying that this kind of person is not a person who can live a good life.

He hated Fan Guoxi, and complained about Fan Guoxi's fickleness and indifference, why couldn't he bear it after suffering so much.It took a long time to learn the real situation at that time from other people's mouths.

Before the accident, Fan Guoxi was in poor health and seemed to be suffering from an illness. He asked Fan Guoxi to see a doctor, but he didn't know if he had gone, but the Tang family arrested him without any results.

The Tang family tried every means to force Fan Guoxi to leave. The Tang family would not do anything to people, but they used many methods to torture people mentally. They followed Fan Guoxi all day long and asked someone to let the factory clear Fan Guoxi.

Fan Guoxi was originally a mysterious person, and he was even more nervous after being ill. He was tortured by the Tang family, and his livelihood was cut off, and he couldn't see Tang Yiqiu.In the end, he only told the Tang family that he wanted to give back the jade pendant to Tang Yiqiu, and that jade pendant was specially prepared by Fan Guoxi as a betrothal gift for his future partner.

Tang Yiqiu didn't know what happened after that. He searched for a long time and couldn't find out where Fan Guoxi went or what he experienced after he left City B. He only knew that Fan Guoxi returned to Fan's house with the child half a year later. Died the next day.

That jade pendant recorded the good times between him and Fan Guoxi, and the knife and knife were all carved by Fan Guoxi himself. Tang Yiqiu wanted to get back this jade pendant, just like finding the happiness in the past. I will think about the joy of family reunion again, I just hope that I can get back that jade pendant, so that I can go to see that person and say sorry when I die.
