Chapter 272 Chapter 273 Meeting, leaving the mountain

Open a separate table?

The housekeeper looked at Ji Heng, a little hesitant. After all, Ji Heng was an elder, and it was not appropriate to let him sit with a group of children.

"It's okay," Ji Heng has never been particular about these things. If it weren't for Bai Xi and the others, he would never return to Jiangjing. Seeing the housekeeper's hesitation, he lowered his head and took a puff of cigarette, "Just arrange it like this."

"I'll go back and discuss it with the young lady."

Outside the courtyard gate, Lance and Jiang He were still squatting under the parasol, looking at the newly planted seeds.

The wind outside was actually a little cool, so he asked Jiang He to come in and put on a coat.

"And Miss Mulan," the housekeeper remembered this matter, "has an appointment to transfer the household registration book next Wednesday."

Ji Mulan's household registration has been full of twists and turns.

After countless twists and turns, the children of the Ji family finally returned to the Mu family. Now, only Bai Di is listed in Ji Heng's household register.

Smoke drifted out.

Ji Heng lowered his eyelids.

After the housekeeper's words, they did not stay with Ji Heng to disturb them. After saying a word to Ji Heng, they took the raw crab roe bun Ji Heng gave him and left.

Lance brought Jiang He in and saw the crab lying in the box in the hall. He was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Why is there still some? I don't want to eat today!"

**

6pm, Kangyu Building.

Gao Shu was a little nervous. She came an hour early and was calling Gao Yan to ask about Bai Di's personality.

"You mean Bai Shi? Don't be nervous," Gao Yan put down the fan in her hand on the other end of the phone, walked to the porch to look at the brocade carp under the bridge, "She is very well-behaved and polite..."

Gao Yan leaned over the bridge in the light in front of her and said a lot of words praising Bai Shi.

She and Gao Shu had discussed these on WeChat before.

It's a cliché.

Gao Shu also met Bai Shi briefly last time, and just by looking at her face, she knew that Bai Shi was a cultured and graceful person, and she must have been exposed to culture and art since childhood.

Speaking of which, Gao Shu felt it was strange just like Gao Yan, where did Bai Shi receive such traditional cultural output?

"I know that, but I'm still a little nervous," Gao Shu laughed. She was already the vice president when she was over 30 years old. Now she is about to be promoted. Even when she was protecting her unconscious nephew by herself, she was not so nervous. "Alas, it's not easy to wait until today. I don't know if this little girl can stand his temper."

Jiang Fuli is not similar to her sister and brother-in-law. After his parents died when he was eight years old, he was like a different person. In one word, "cold".

He is so indifferent to everyone and never smiles. He even scolds Jiang Xijue when

he is fine. "Don't worry about this." Gao Yan raised her eyebrows when she heard Gao Shu talk about this.

Gao Shu hung up the phone, a little surprised.

She had just asked Gao Yan about her taste for white peony, and asked Secretary Xue to call the manager of Kang Yu Building to discuss the dishes, cakes and tea that would be served later.

The manager bowed respectfully and came in, replying to Gao Shu: "Mr. Jiang has already arranged all these."

"He himself?" Gao Shu stood up unexpectedly.

"Yes."

Gao Shu was very surprised. Jiang Fuli had a look on his face that said "who are you?" He ate whatever he wanted, and Jiang He was so picky about food that only Ming Dongheng and Jiang Xijue would keep an eye on him. It was

a bit mysterious.

After the manager left, Gao Shu sat down by the window again. Secretary Xue poured her a cup of tea, "You can rest assured now."

Gao Shu took the teacup and nodded.

It was still early, and Secretary Xue stood beside her, talking about business, "Yesterday, Xiao Li saw Mr. Shi having dinner with Vice Dean Ji. Vice Dean Ji...why does he keep biting you?"

Shi Qingyu had dinner with Gao Shu last week, and the two discussed composing music.

This week, Ji Yinghui went to find Shi Qingyu.

Gao Shu has a certain influence in the scientific research circle of the Jiang family.

But in the drama theater, Gao Shu has fought alone to get to where she is today.

Although her son studied piano with Dean Jian, Dean Jian has always treated his three disciples equally.

"If Dean Jian can still compose music now," Gao Shu said softly, brushing off the foam, "I don't have to compete with Ji Yinghui."

Dean Jian was Gao Shu's first choice.

Secretary Xue was speechless for a moment. She looked at Gao Shu and knew that it had not been easy for her to come this far. However, apart from Li Jiu, no one in the Gao family was on par with Gao Shu.

Li Jiu was not yet a master and had not inherited Gao Shu's artistic talent. There was actually very little he could do.

**

At six fifty, Bai Di and Jiang Fuli arrived.

Gao Shu hurriedly put down the teacup in her hand, brushed her sleeves, stood up and looked outside the door.

The one who pushed the door was a pair of bony hands with a houndstooth scarf neatly draped over the crook of the arm. This was Jiang Fuli.

Gao Shu's eyes fell on the girl behind him, who was wearing a red embroidered jacket with an apricot dress underneath, with her eyebrows drooping.

When I saw Bai Di last week, she was wearing a plain dress, graceful and reserved.

Today's red coat is bright and attractive.

Gao Shu was slightly stunned again.

"Aunt." Jiang Fuli reached out to close the door of the private room and greeted Gao Shu politely.

Even this "Aunt" was extremely bland.

Bai Xi was also free of any restraint and greeted Gao Shu calmly.

Secretary Xue quietly stepped aside and looked at the girl in front of him calmly. He was very surprised in his heart. The Gao family has always produced beauties. Gao Si married Jiang Sheng at that time, which was also a good thing in Jiangjing. Gao Yan followed closely and married Xu Jueling.

Now Jiangjing also has those young ladies from the Ming family. Secretary Xue has also seen them. They are indeed beautiful.

But after meeting this Miss Bai today, Secretary Xue felt that even Ming Zongyao would have to take a step back. Just this temperament alone was something that the Ming family could not compare to.

Others, even Master Chen sitting next to Jiang Fuli, would be affected by her. However,

this Miss Bai was still calm and graceful.

Jiang Fuli took the teapot and poured a cup of tea for himself and Bai Di. Outside, the manager had already started serving the dishes.

"Is studying at Jiang University very stressful? I saw in the news last time that a probe successfully landed on Mars..." Gao Shu was sitting next to Bai Di and talking to her. She had heard Gao Yan say that Bai Di had good grades and might spend her time in the laboratory like Jiang Fuli in the future.

Gao Shu studied art, but she has learned a little about it in the past two years because of the Gao family and Jiang Fuli.

Last night, she asked the Gao family to give her some information about the scientific research circle so that she could review it, but it always sounded a little different to an expert.

Bai Di changed the subject calmly.

They started with scientific research and ended up talking about art.

Gao Shu couldn't help but talk a lot about art, saying that her painting teacher was very optimistic about Jiang He.

Bai Shi nodded, "Jiang He's paintings have a strong sense of reality."

The two chatted casually, Jiang Fuli rarely spoke, only occasionally picking up a piece of food for Bai Shi. He has always been cold and treated everyone like this, Gao Shu was not surprised.

Gao Shu was very excited to chat, and she put down her chopsticks until the meal was over.

She asked Secretary Xue to take out the gift box and hand it to Bai Shi in person.

Downstairs of Kangyu Building, Gao Shu and Secretary Xue stood together, watching Bai Di and Jiang Fuli get on the car. When the car turned a corner and they could no longer see each other, Gao Shu smiled and tilted her head, "This child is really good."

She finally understood why Gao Yan wanted to take Bai Di as her goddaughter.

Secretary Xue saw that she was very happy and really didn't want to say anything else to distract her, but he still said it, "Dr. Gao wants to meet you."

Who else could Dr. Gao be other than Gao Jiachen? Gao

Shu put away the smile on her lips, and she pressed her brows: "She said I don't have time."

What else could these people from the Gao family want to ask her to do except to join Jiang Fuli's group or Academician Ma's group?

Recently, Gao Shu has been busy talking about the theater, and she is indeed busy.

Gao Shu returned home, Li Jiu was practicing the piano, and when he saw her come back, he came out and helped her take out her home shoes.

"Mom," Li Jiu put the slippers next to her, and did not leave. Instead, he said, "The teacher asked you if you can show him the script of "Flowers on the Trees."

The play has not been released yet, and is in rehearsal. The theme song has not been decided yet. Those who have the script of "Flowers on the Trees" are insiders.

Last time, in order to convince Dean Jian to compose the music, Gao Shu mentioned a few general plots to him.

"Your teacher wants to see the script of the play?" The script is not a secret. Gao Shu didn't understand why Dean Jian wanted to see the script if he didn't want to take the composing job, but she didn't refuse, "I'll go to the study to send it to you."

Jiang Jing, Shi family.

Shi Qingyu is a veteran artist. Recently, two future stars from the Drama Theater have approached him, and he is weighing the pros and cons.

He got out of the back seat of Ji Yinghui's car.

Ji Yinghui got down from the driver's seat and looked at Shi Qingyu with a smile, "Mr. Shi, I heard that your son's asthma has not been cured. I have an invitation from an MTR doctor here. I hope it will be helpful to you."

As he said, he handed a hot-stamped business card in his hand to Shi Qingyu.

Shi Qingyu took it and looked at Ji Yinghui, "Thank you, President Ji."

"Also, I will definitely recommend your composition to President Jian," Ji Yinghui smiled, "Let him compose it for you personally."

It goes without saying that President Jian was the inheritor of the guzheng and was at the peak of his career in Jiangyin.

In the past six months, as the master arranger of Yan Lu, he has left others far behind in the art world. It's

not that Shi Qingyu himself can't arrange music, but not to mention that Dean Jian's level of arrangement is higher than his, his work has the three words "Dean Jian" on it, and the value will be different from the past.

He returned home with the business card and began to think about this matter.

He has always known that the old dean of the drama theater is recruiting theme songs, and he asked someone to get the script of "Flowers on the Tree".

Ji Yinghui's family has been engaged in drama for generations, and his grandmother is the inheritor of Peking Opera, and she plays an important role in this industry in the art world.

Although Gao Shu does not have such a deep background, but... she is a member of the Gao family.

Shi Qingyu hesitated for the two of them. He must compose this song, and he is sure to win. It depends on which side he will stand on. In this case, he will inevitably offend someone.

At this age, no one doesn't want to climb up, and he is the same, with a strong sense of utilitarianism.

Ji Yinghui not only found out about his son's affairs, but also promised him about Dean Jian's affairs. All of these were to show him his strength. Shi Qingyu put the business card on the table, and he had already made a decision in his heart.

Shanhai Apartment.

When Bai Xi came back, Zhang Shize, Tang Mingning and Xiao were doing homework in 303. Lu Xiaohan and Jiang He were sitting on the carpet playing puzzles.

She had a very fresh rose in her hand, and the water droplets were still hanging on the crimson petals.

"Next Saturday." Bai Xi entered the study. In addition to those gadgets on the desk, there was also a celadon vase next to the black computer.

Ming Dongheng brought it back several days ago.

There were a few roses randomly placed in the vase, all placed at different times, some in full bloom, some about to wither. Bai Shi slowly placed the rose in her hand into the celadon vase.

Jiang Fuli leaned lazily against the desk, looked down at the roses in the celadon vase, and said casually: "At the Mu family?"

"Yes." Bai Shi sat in front of the computer, turned on the computer, found the email sent by Academician Ma from the mailbox, printed it out, and clicked on the email sent by Xiao Qi about Wen Zhixia's recent situation.

She scanned it, opened WeChat, found Xu En's avatar, clicked it and asked a few questions.

The Wen family is an old family in Jiangjing, engaged in the electrical industry.

Looking down, it was a message from Dean Jian, with only one file -

"Flowers on the Trees"

. Bai Mi had a good memory and remembered that this was the play Dean Jian had told her about before.

She clicked to receive it, connected the printer, and printed it out.

Jiang Fuli reached out to pick up her printed paper, and took the stapler to staple all the printed papers together neatly, "I have nothing to do on Saturday."

After the paper was finished, "Flowers on the Trees" was printed out immediately.

Jiang Fuli started to staple all the plays together.

He had no interest in the play and just glanced at it.

Bai Mi did not read the printed play script, but first read the document sent to her by Academician Ma. After a simple translation, it was almost twelve o'clock.

She sent the translated document to Ning Xiao's mailbox.

When she stood up from the table, she saw "Flowers on the Tree" next to her. She lowered her head and looked at the cover for a moment, then sat down again and read it under the light of the study.

The script of more than forty pages is not long.

Bai Mi read ten lines at a glance and read quickly.

Flowers on the Tree comes from the Art of War.

The script also tells such a story, using a small force to gain a big advantage, and cleverly using a battle of Chen Ye to create this dramatic story. Chen Ye learned this from Bai Chongyu, and he is used to using this trick.

It took only five minutes to finish reading the script.

She pressed the computer keyboard and replied to Dean Jian -

[The story is good.]

It was almost twelve o'clock, and Dean Jian was still awake, as if he was waiting for her reply: [Now, are you interested?]

Bai Fu leaned back, her cold fingertips resting on the keyboard, thinking for a few minutes before replying: [No time.]

The Tongfeng class had a tight schedule, and she was also studying the questions of the Boyuan class. Physics is also based on the foundation of mathematics, and she was also improving herself by doing Wang Xu's questions.

Academician Ma did not relax on her either, he seemed very anxious.

Bai Rui did not have much time, and... this kind of art, Bai Rui thought, she was too young, even if Dean Jian was assured, the people in the drama theater would not be assured.

Of course, she did not realize at all -

how much earthquake the two words "Bai Rui" brought to the music world in one year.

**

Jiangjing gets cold quickly in winter.

It is easy for Ji Heng to make summer skirts for Bai Rui, but winter clothes are not as fast as before. It takes half a month or even longer to make a piece of clothing.

Bai Rui's closet has some more clothes sent by Ming Dongheng.

After Gao Yan learned about it from Ming Dongheng, she asked Bai Rui to come to Qingxin Building on Sunday afternoon and let the tailor measure her size.

Hearing this, Gao Shu also took out a few pieces of rare cloth.

Look at the fabric she brought, it's delicate and shiny.

This is something that only Gao Yan and Gao Shu can do, as it's something that Jiang Fuli has stolen.

Bai Xi stood on the carpet, her hands stretched out casually, her eyebrows drooping lazily, and asked someone to measure her size.

The seamstress wrote it down on a piece of paper.

Gao Shu and Gao Yan stood aside, watching this scene sideways, and they were very harmonious.

After the measurement, the seamstress took the data out, and Gao Yan waved to Bai Xi, asking her to try the new snacks from Qingxinlou to see if they suit her taste.

It was at this time.

Secretary Xue came in from outside, she must have been a little flustered, she was somewhat impolite, knocked on the door and barged in, "Mrs. Xu, Miss Bai."

She stood in the hall, greeted Gao Yan and Bai Di, then looked at Gao Shu, "Mr. Shi explicitly rejected your invitation, today he was invited by Vice Dean Ji to watch the rehearsal at the Drama Theater."

Everyone here is a family.

Gao Yan and Gao Shu have been friends for decades, as for Bai Di, Jiang Fuli and Gao Shu are optimistic about her.

Secretary Xue did not mean to avoid suspicion.

In order to prevent Bai Di from feeling uncomfortable, she did not treat Bai Di as an outsider.

"He clearly wants to stand on Ji Yinghui's side?" Gao Shu put down the teacup and stood up. She originally found Shi Qingyu first, thinking that she had a chance of winning.

Unexpectedly, Shi Qingyu dragged it out for half a month and now turned to Ji Yinghui, which caught her off guard.

Gao Yan usually likes to watch Gao Shu's dramas, and knows a thing or two about this. She sat up straight, "Is it troublesome?"

"A little bit," Gao Shu stood up and smiled at Bai Di and Gao Yan, "I can't accompany you two for dinner tonight, I'm going to the theater."

"No problem." Bai Di stood up. She was wearing a simple white top, her eyes were dark, reflecting the warmth of the whole room, and her voice was neither hurried nor slow.

Gao Shu listened to her voice and calmed down, "Come to my house for dinner in two days."

She hurried away with her bag.

After Gao Shu left, Gao Yan had time to explain the incident at the theater to Bai Di, "It hasn't been easy for her these years. It's okay as long as the old dean is here, but if he retires and gives his position to Ji Yinghui, Shushu's career in the theater will be even more difficult."

Butler Xu, who was standing behind Gao Yan, also frowned, "Ji Yinghui has always been a mean person. When Miss Gao was promoted to vice dean, he was also trying to obstruct her."

Bai Di lowered his head to blew away the tea foam and listened quietly to Gao Yan's words. It was not

until Gao Yan mentioned "Flowers on the Tree" that Bai Ti raised her eyes, "Flowers on the Tree?"

"Yes," Gao Yan pinched a piece of plum cake and took a bite, "It's a new large-scale drama launched by the Drama Theater, and it's also the old dean's last closing work. It took five years, and a lot of actors have been selected. I'll take you to see it when it's officially performed." "

Can't find anyone else?" Bai Ti closed the white porcelain lid of the teacup.

"This kind of masterpiece, most people don't dare to take it. Shu Shu first looked for Dean Jian, and Jiang Jing thought it was just the two of them, but Dean Jian didn't agree." At this point, Gao Yan tapped the table with her fingertips, looked at Bai Ti, and her heart moved, "Ti Ti, you are familiar with Dean Jian, why don't you persuade Dean Jian?"

Gao Yan knew that Bai Ti and Dean Jian were too familiar with each other, and they were close friends regardless of age.

She had seen Liu Shuhe and Dean Jian get along, and they were not as calm and harmonious as Bai Di and Dean Jian, and... Gao Yan always felt that when Dean Jian mentioned Bai Di, there was always an inexplicable respect.

Especially when he mentioned Teacher Bai Di.

Gao Yan looked at Bai Di nervously.

Bai Di didn't say anything, but picked up the white jade bone fan that had been placed aside earlier. The fan was cool in summer and warm in winter. She held the fan in her right hand, casually unfolding and folding it, her eyelashes drooping, as if thinking about something.

The box was quiet and silent. Gao Yan looked at her skillfully playing with the fan, and she knew that the gift was not wrong.

"Forget it," she shook her head and laughed, "Dean Jian said that he has no creative inspiration. Even if you persuade him, it may not work. It's just that this time, Shushu..."

"No, I'm just thinking," Bai Shi put away the bone fan, and put the fan head against the palm of his hand, looking leisurely, "When will she need it?"

I didn't expect Bai Shi to ask this question suddenly.

Gao Yan was stunned, she didn't know, "One or two months, not too urgent."

"Gambling" will be out in a few days, one or two months...

"Almost," Bai Shi narrowed his eyes slightly, "Dean Jian can't do it, I'll do it."

There are a lot of words, so there are no chapters. There will be no more tonight. See you tomorrow, my dears! See you tomorrow!
