"Flattery never wears out, no matter how many holes there are."
Liang Xin went upstairs with a smile on her face, "The saying really makes sense."
Lu Chongfeng saw that Liang Xin was completely happy, so he chased after her with his daughter in his arms, "I'm not trying to flatter you, I'm speaking from the bottom of my heart!"
"Deputy Commander Lu's emotional intelligence and understanding ability have increased with age."
Liang Xin walked into the bedroom, put the dumpling-like pillow on the small bed in the middle of the big bed, then picked up her daughter's quilt and shook it out.
As soon as Lu Chongfeng saw the position where his daughter was sleeping, he understood what she meant. "You came back late today and you were so tired. I was so distressed that I couldn't even think of anything else. Comrade Liang Xin, you really don't understand your revolutionary partner."
"You have to be moderate in your approach to being cheesy."
Liang Xin patted the small pillow, "Put it on quickly."
Lu Chongfeng carefully put his daughter on the bed and covered her bulging belly with a small quilt.
Liang Xin turned on the floor fan, adjusted it to the lowest setting, and shook her head to blow the air towards the big bed.
"I didn't have time to ask you downstairs just now."
Lu Chongfeng took off his military uniform and unbuttoned his white shirt. "Which old boxer are you going to convince?"
Liang Xin took out some clothes from the wardrobe, "What's wrong?"
"Many famous martial arts masters in the country have taught kung fu to the military."
Lu Chongfeng threw the white shirt into the basket beside the French window. "The masters of these martial arts masters all joined the army and participated in the battles when the country was in trouble. I should be able to help ask them."
Liang Xin thought for a few seconds and shook her head. "These masters with real skills are very stubborn. If they could have a good relationship, people from our factory wouldn't have been turned down so many times. If we don't handle it well, it might backfire. I'll give it a try first, and if it doesn't work, I'll think of a way."
Lu Chongfeng had also met many martial arts masters and understood their temperaments. He nodded and said, "You are right. People who practice martial arts adhere to tradition and respect their teachers. Even if I use my connections to convince him, if he is not willing to participate, he will definitely not achieve the effect you want in the process."
Liang Xin looked at his muscles piled up like bricks after he took off his shirt, "...I'm taking a shower, why are you taking off your clothes?"
"I'm going to take a shower with you."
Lu Chongfeng looked very serious, "Finish your shower early and go to bed early, otherwise you will finish your shower and go to bed while I am still washing, mopping the floor, opening and closing doors, and walking around, which will disturb your sleep."
"You're thinking so carefully now?"
"Of course. You can't compare to me in terms of physical strength, but you did almost the same thing as me. Of course I have to think a little more, so that you can save some energy when you go home, rest well, and recover your energy."
Liang Xin couldn't help laughing, "What did you eat tonight? You're so talkative."
Lu Chongfeng took Liang Xin's hand and walked to the bathroom. "Maybe it's because I know I'm going to separate from you. Don't move. I'll help you wash."
Liang Xin reasonably suspected that Lu Chongfeng was trying to take advantage of her in a roundabout way.
But looking at his expression, he seemed very serious. He carefully scrubbed her hair and applied soap to her. Then he held the faucet and rubbed it with his fingertips, not letting any soap foam remain on her skin.
Liang Xin raised her hand and touched his ear bone.
The showerhead shifted away from her and onto the wall.
The next second, it was held firmly again and spilled back.
Lu Chongfeng tightened his lips and continued to help Liang Xin take a bath. "Are you tired today? Your voice is a little hoarse."
Liang Xin: ".......You are so serious, and you took off all your clothes so cleanly. Why are you showing off in front of me?"
"I'm taking a shower. How can I take a shower without taking off my clothes?"
“You haven’t washed yet.”
"No, I came in too, and I'll get wet if I help you wash."
"You can help me wash with your clothes on."
"Won't the clothes be soaked?"
"You mean, you don't have to wash the clothes you just took off tomorrow, and you have to wear them again?"
“.......”
Liang Xin snorted, "Go on?"
"How can I be better than the top scholar in eloquence?"
Lu Chongfeng took the shower head and splashed it over himself, quickly applying soap. Seeing Liang Xin was about to go out, he immediately directed the shower head at her again.
When Liang Xin looked back with an unfriendly look, Lu Chongfeng hurriedly said, "Wait for me."
".....It's just a few steps. Do we have to go together?"
"We came together, and we leave together!"
Liang Xin: “….”
Lu Chongfeng pulled Liang Xin back again, hugged her and rubbed her, rubbed the soap foam on his body back on Liang Xin, and laughed, "We have to go together now."
"...Aren't you afraid that I will spread the news about you at home to the whole family compound?"
Lu Chongfeng said in surprise: "I was wondering how to continue sharing things that can prove our good relationship. Are you really willing to tell me? But if I do, you can't tell me about our bathing, right? This is very private. Let me think about it. I'll teach you how to share it. Just say..."
Liang Xin: “….”
“Wash quickly!”
Lu Chongfeng: "...Oh."
Liang Xin lay down on the bed and breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Chongfeng also lay down, looking at the fragrant Liang Xin through his sweetly sleeping daughter, "Do you want another massage?"
"You might as well just do it."
Lu Chongfeng: “?”
"I'm talking to you seriously, why do you keep thinking about that?"
Liang Xin glanced at him sideways, "It's all because of who you are that I always think that way."
Lu Chongfeng was not convinced, "That's because you are usually very charming!"
Liang Xin raised the corner of her mouth, turned over to face him, and also lay on her side facing Dudu, "I won't tease you anymore. I did say a lot at the staff meeting today. I'm tired."
Lu Chongfeng touched Liang Xin's head and said, "How about I go get some watermelon from the refrigerator so you can eat two pieces to moisten your throat?"
"I just brushed my teeth, forget it."
Liang Xin tucked in Dudu's quilt, "If he gets an upset stomach again, I don't know how long he'll be awake before he can go to bed."
"Won't."
Lu Chongfeng turned over and got out of bed. "I deliberately lowered the temperature of the refrigerator before putting it in. I'll bring you some water to rinse your mouth after you finish eating."
Liang Xin saw that he really went there. She had just taken a hot bath and was indeed thirsty and wanted to eat some cold watermelon, so she sat up from the bed again.
Lu Chongfeng quickly came up with a white porcelain tray with a few pieces of watermelon cut into triangles on it. The flesh was bright red and juicy.
Liang Xin was drooling. She took the enamel teacup off the bedside table and asked Lu Chongfeng to put the tray away.
Blowing the electric fan, taking a bite of the icy cold watermelon, chewing the crisp and sweet taste, Liang Xin smiled with satisfaction, "This is life!"
Lu Chongfeng first filled the teacup with warm water, then brought a basin over, then picked up a piece of watermelon and took two bites. "As soon as I saw this watermelon, I thought it would be sweet, and it really is sweet!"
Liang Xin spat the watermelon seeds into the enamel plate and said, "But if I do nothing every day, this piece of watermelon may not taste as sweet as it does now."
Lu Chongfeng was puzzled, "Why?"
"It could be that blood sugar levels drop, causing the body to need more sugar, or it could be that the taste threshold is lowered, increasing the perception of sweetness."
Liang Xin smiled and said, "It should also be because after working hard, the brain sees food as a reward, which prompts the release of dopamine and strengthens the experience of the pleasure of food."
"Now that you mention it, it does seem to be sweeter than the melons I usually eat."
Lu Chongfeng took a bite of the watermelon and chewed it. "But it's definitely not because of what you said. It's because I ate watermelon with my wife in the middle of the night, so I thought this watermelon was sweeter than usual!"
Liang Xin almost choked, then recovered and said, "...your mouth has more sugar than a watermelon today, Comrade Lu Tiantian."
Lu Chongfeng likes this new name!
But only Liang Xin can scream, no one else can hear it, and no one else can scream!
After eating the watermelon, Liang Xin fell asleep feeling relaxed and happy.
Lu Chongfeng watched her fall asleep with a relaxed face and a smile on her lips. He also smiled, put his hand on Liang Xin's waist and closed his eyes.
When Liang Xin went on a business trip to Beijing, Lu Chongfeng was still unable to spare the time.
I could only drive Liangxin and Dudu to the train station.
"Let's go first."
Liang Xin took Dudu from Lu Chongfeng's arms and comforted Lu Chongfeng, who had a sour face but was reluctant to let him go. "We have finally waited for the construction of the technical building to start. You should get busy first. Maybe you can catch up with the martial arts performance after you are done."
Even though I know it's impossible.
But Liang Xin still comforted her in this way.
Lu Chongfeng had no choice but to say, "Be careful on the road. Long-distance trains are still very chaotic."
"I am also an executive who is eligible to sit in a sleeper compartment, so don't worry too much."
Liang Xin raised Dudu's little hand and said, "Besides, there are seven or eight of us on this business trip, plus my eldest sister, so there's even less to worry about. Dudu, say goodbye to Dad."
Dudu was very excited when he woke up in the morning because he was going to go on a long trip. But when he heard that he had to say goodbye to his dad, his little face was confused. He pointed at his dad and looked at his mom, "Daddy, let's go."
"Dad won't leave. He has to stay at the company to work." Liang Xin said to her daughter, "This time, only Aunt Fen and I will go together."
Dudu kicked his calves, his face unhappy, "Daddy is leaving too."
Lu Chongfeng felt very relieved, and walked forward with open arms, "My daughter knows how much she misses leaving her father. Come back with her father. We can stay at home together."
Dudu's little face was confused again. Seeing his father approaching, he quickly raised his little hand and waved, "Goodbye, Dad."
The people who were on the business trip were all amused by Dudu's reactions.
Lu Chongfeng held Dudu's little hand and kissed her twice, "Have you lost your feelings for dad so quickly?"
Liang Xin was also laughing, "The division is so busy, let's go back quickly, we have to get in the car."
Lu Chongfeng picked up the luggage and said, "I'll watch you get in the car before we leave."
After Liang Xin arrived in Beijing, she went directly to the Beijing Bakery.
The cadres and staff of the Beijing group all stayed in a guesthouse nearby.
In addition to using the phone to meet with clients, it also serves as a registration location for martial arts exhibitions.
"Director Liang!"
Han Caixia saw Liang Xin from a distance through the glass window, and rushed out of the bakery, saying excitedly: "Director Liang, I finally see you again!"
The other two people, Wang Yun and Wu Li, who had come to Beijing with Liang Xin, also rushed out, "Director Liang!"
Liang Xin was also infected by their enthusiasm and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since we last met. You all look better."
"We have jobs, skills, a house, and a salary. Our children have been placed in good schools, their grades have improved little by little, and our complexion has improved! We have gained more than ten pounds!"
Han Caixia was even more excited when she saw Dudu, who was looking at her curiously in Liang Xin's arms. "The last time we met, Director Liang didn't have a child yet. Now that we've been apart, the child has grown so big!"
Speaking of this, Liang Xin remembered that Dudu was in Beijing.
Liang Xin remained calm on the surface, but her ears were a little hot. She smiled and said, "Children grow very fast before they are three years old. Is everyone okay? Can you handle it?"
"Okay, we are all fine. Let's go in first. It's still hot outside. Let's go in and take a rest."
Seeing Han Caixia greeting everyone in, Liang Xin praised: "Sister Caixia has become more imposing than before, and still in a friendly manner."
No one's praise could make Han Caixia more excited than Liang Xin's praise. Moreover, Liang Xin praised her publicly in front of other employees in the bakery, which meant that Liang Xin recognized her!
When Han Caixia spoke again, her voice was trembling. "Director Liang, I was forced to do this. No, look at me. Once I'm praised, I can't say a word. What I mean is that Director Xia was going to leave, so he suddenly asked me to be the store manager."
Liang Xin walked to the backyard and fed Dudu the water that Wang Yun handed over. "Director Xia recommended you to do it because she saw that you are capable of managing a bakery. She is a very cautious person and she values the bakery very much. Facts have proved that her vision is correct."
Han Caixia was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. She didn't know where to put her hands. She turned around and hurried to the inner room, pushing a bamboo cart with four small wheels.
"Director Liang, this is a stroller that Wang Yun suggested borrowing because she heard you were going to bring your child here." Han Caixia said, "I know that if we go to buy it, you will definitely not agree and you won't be willing to use it. Although we are willing to buy it, in order to make it practical for you, we still borrowed one from our alley. This way, you won't have to worry about taking care of the child while you're in Beijing."
Liang Xin was surprised for a moment, "Thank you for being so thoughtful. I feel embarrassed."
Wang Yun said: "If there is any embarrassment, it should be us. You see, I am even fatter than Director Han. I never dared to think about it in my hometown before. It is because of Director Liang that we can live and work in peace and contentment."
“I like to hear this idiom.”
Liang Xin smiled and said, "Then I won't be polite. My elder sister and I can't bear holding Dudu for a long time. Thank you."
Han Caixia used the bakery's kitchen to cook, and Liang Xin and others ate there.
During the meal, I asked Han Caixia in person about the business status of the Beijing Bakery.
In fact, she knew all these things. Han Caixia worked seriously and would report the situation to Xia Xia's office every week, and Xia Xia would then pass it on to Liang Xin.
Boosted by the marketing of Conscience Instant Noodles, the bakery's business has become better than before. In addition, the popularity of going abroad is still rising, and the bakery orders from airlines have almost doubled again, exceeding two thousand orders per day. The backyard kitchen has been expanded, and a baking room dedicated to making airplane bread has been added. Xia Xia School has also arranged for someone to come and help.
Although the sales volume and profit of the bakery cannot be compared with those of the instant noodle factory, it is not much worse than the pharmaceutical factory of the 11th Division. Compared with other factories that have become more confused, it is even more eye-catching and enviable.
Liang Xin did not stay in the bakery for long. He took Dudu back to the guesthouse to rest for a while. After Dudu fell asleep, he began to discuss the old boxer's situation with the Beijing group again.
The old boxer Fan Hongyi is a disciple of Qingwumen. His master Wu Changsheng is one of the famous martial artists mentioned by Lu Chongfeng who joined the army and went to the battlefield to kill the enemy when the country was in trouble. After being injured on the battlefield, he returned to his hometown to recuperate. Fan Hongyi was one of the disciples Wu Changsheng accepted during his recuperation.
Fan Hongyi was deeply loved by Wu Changsheng, and learned the true boxing skills of Wu Changsheng, which was to make clouds and rain with a flip of his hand. He became a famous boxer of the northern boxing style. At the same time, he inherited his master's martial ethics, traveled around the world, punished evil and promoted good, and accumulated a high reputation among the people.
Even though martial arts were later labeled as feudal remnants, he never gave up. He used local materials and continued to study hard for ten years. In the early 1980s, after martial arts were unbanned, he recruited disciples on his behalf and taught them skills, hoping to carry forward the Qingwu School.
But Fan Hongyi has extremely traditional military thinking, valuing righteousness over profit.
Therefore, anyone who came to him with money to invite him to participate in a martial arts performance or competition would be turned away, without exception.
Liang Xin took two large bottles of milk, a basket of foreign eggs, beef and a basket of fresh vegetables and fruits from the bakery, and pushed Dudu to the door.
Feng Haiyan didn't quite understand, but she helped carry the things and walked in front to lead the way.
The large courtyard in a narrow alley near the overpass is Fan Hongyi's home. It is also the place where he currently recruits apprentices and teaches his skills.
As Liang Xin pushed Dudu into the alley, she saw a man practicing tendon stretching with a cloth tied to an old tree.
"Master Li."
Feng Haiyan stepped forward with a smile, "Is Master Fan home?"
Master Li stopped practicing, looked back at Liang Xin, and paused, "I'm here, every day, but I don't see you. Why are you here again?"
"This is our factory manager Liang." Feng Haiyan introduced: "Our factory manager Liang came all the way from Jiangkou to Beijing. You see, he even brought his children with him. Can you help us persuade Master Fan to open the door and see us?"
"If I told you it could be counted, you would have seen it a long time ago."
Master Li started practicing again and ignored Feng Haiyan.
Liang Xin asked, "Which one?"
Feng Haiyan walked forward a few steps, pointed at a dilapidated wooden door and said, "This is it."
Liang Xin walked over to take a look at the bags of cement piled at the door, and then approached the gate. Through the crack in the door, she saw people inside throwing stones, spinning around water tanks, and some using the courtyard wall and wooden stakes to stretch and kick their legs...
Sister Ji asked curiously, "How do they get in and out when the door is closed?"
Feng Haiyan pointed to the top of the wall and said, "The top of the wall is also the equipment used by the masters to train their basic skills."
Liang Xin asked with a smile: "Is the door closed to protect you?"
Feng Haiyan felt embarrassed. "Because we came too often before, maybe he got annoyed and locked the front door. Before, Master Fan only locked the door of his main room. He wouldn't come out until we left."
Liang Xin went forward and knocked on the door politely. The person in the crack of the door obviously heard it, but no one moved.
Feng Haiyan walked forward as if she was going to tear down the door, but was stopped by Liang Xin as soon as she raised her hand.
"Don't get angry."
Liang Xin knew that the people inside had heard what was going on. “Now it’s a crackdown period. Since we knocked on the door and there was someone there but no one answered, we should go to the police station and report that there was a crowd gathering here.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Master Li under the tree turned around and asked, "What do you mean?"
Everyone in the door also stopped training instantly.
Liang Xin said, "I came here specially to visit Master Fan, but I heard from the cadres of our factory that they have waited here many times but have not been able to see Master Fan. I suspect that Master Fan's life safety is in danger."
"You're talking nonsense!"
Master Li had never seen a visitor who used such a move before. "Do you suspect that we killed Master?"
Liang Xin said seriously: "That's hard to say."
Master Li's eyes widened as he said, "You are amazing! It's obvious that the master doesn't want to see you!"
"This is my first time here. How do you know your master doesn't want to see me?" Liang Xin asked, "Is it Master Fan who doesn't want to see me, or is it you who doesn't want him to see me?"
Master Li choked, "Okay, wait, I'll go in now!"
Liang Xin smiled and added, "If I don't see him for a day, I will report him once a day."
Master Li didn’t know if he had stepped into a pit, but he staggered obviously, walked to the wall and flipped in.
Feng Haiyan was nervous but happy. "Director Liang is the one who has a solution. We have come here too many times, and this Master Li is guarding the door. No matter what we say, he won't let us in, and he is not willing to help us pass on the message!"
Liang Xin said: "Soft tactics are useless, we can only use hard tactics."
Feng Haiyan was about to say that she didn't know if it would work when the wooden door was opened. "It's open! Director, the door is open!"
Liang Xin took Dudu out of the stroller, stepped into the door, and said with a smile: "It seems that I was overthinking. Master Fan is not in any life-threatening situation."
People in the yard: “…”
The main door opened and an old master walked out with steady steps, a bow-like spine and pupils with more black than white.
Liang Xin asked, "Master Fan?"
Fan Hongyi clasped his hands together and said politely, "Fan Hongyi, please come in this way."
Feng Haiyan was stunned. She thought that Master Fan would be very rude to them when he came out, but she never expected that Master Fan would be very polite to them.
Finally, Director Deliang stepped in!
Liang Xin actually didn't expect that the other party would come out and directly invite them in. She followed Master Fan's steps and walked into the main room.
There was only a single bed, a simple dining table and a cupboard against the wall in the room. This was obviously the living area.
The rest of the place was converted into a training area, with sandbags and hemp rope rings hanging from the beams, standing positions on the ground, and weapon racks with white wax poles, single swords and swords placed against the walls. Hanging on the walls were not portraits of ancestors worshipped by martial arts schools, but banners issued by the State Sports Commission to avoid feudal superstition.
Master Fan poured a few cups of tea.
Seeing the other party's attitude, Liang Xin also said in time: "Just now, I offended Master Fan in order to see him. I didn't expect that Master Fan would not only not care about it, but also treat me with courtesy. I am really ashamed."
Master Fan didn't say anything, but just gave up the main seat and asked Liang Xin to sit down.
Feng Haiyan was so shocked that her mouth opened unconsciously.
Liang Xin was also stunned for a moment.
The seat of Zhongtang is usually only given to the founder.
Master Fan said: "Director Liang is a top scholar, but he chose to shoulder a heavy burden instead of fame and status. Even if you were in Shaolin today, you would be able to shoulder the Vajra Pestle. What is the point of me being a small martial arts master?"
Feng Haiyan was surprised and happy, but Liang Xin felt that it would be difficult to convince her today.
