Ms. Shen
“Ms. Shen is coming to Rong City?”
Chen Jin confirmed the news with Shen Baichuan again.
Every time Shen Baichuan mentioned his mother, he would address her as "Ms. Shen", so Chen Jin heard it so many times and started to address her as "Ms. Shen" as well.
It’s pretty good, better than Shen Baichuan’s mother.
"Well, she said she'll be there the day after tomorrow, and asked when we're free to have dinner together." Shen Baichuan made himself a cup of coffee, and opened a bottle of drink and poured it into the cup. This was for Chen Jin.
Chen Jin held the cup, lowered his head and took a sip to calm his uneasy emotions.
Shen Baichuan had already said that Ms. Shen would take some time to come to Rong City, mainly to see Chen Jin. But because my grandfather had a lot of things to do at home, Ms. Chen Qiwu had delayed coming until now.
Coincidentally, the day after tomorrow is the first day of the 96th year of the new calendar.
When he first heard that Ms. Shen was getting married, Shen Baichuan was depressed for a few days, but he quickly adjusted himself.
"My future stepfather might also be here."
"It doesn't matter if we meet sooner or later, so let's meet sooner." Chen Jin leaned his head back and looked at him sideways. "You are familiar with Ms. Shen, so you can make the arrangements. I'll just arrive when I get there."
"Oh yeah, I almost forgot to go to the jewelry store to pick up the things I ordered." Chen Jin sighed, "I don't know what wedding gift to give to Ms. Shen, so I'll treat everyone equally and get some gold jewelry."
Shen Baichuan laughed softly. He knew this. Whenever there was a wedding in her family, she would give them a big gold bracelet or other gold jewelry, saying that it would preserve its value.
He felt that this was a very good idea, as it reflected both the gift and the sentiment, and was very practical.
As soon as he moved a little closer to Chen Jin, he was stared at by the big orange cat in Chen Jin's arms. And stretched out his claws.
Shen Baichuan reminded her: “Daju wants to hit me again.”
Chen Jin looked down at Daju's raised paw, and could only ignore the mixed complaint in Shen Baichuan's words, and persuaded him instead: "It's young, please let it go."
A few days ago, she took Daju to the pet hospital for a check-up. She ran all over the city before she found such a pet hospital. If you can't find a pet hospital, you have to go to a veterinary clinic.
I dewormed the cat and had it sterilized at the same time. Daju was angry with her for half a month, and even ran away from home and went to Professor Shen's house.
I'm not so angry now, finally I can let her hug me again. When the weather turns cooler, hugging a big, furry orange cat is like hugging a cat blanket.
But for some reason, the thought of being sterilized would suddenly give her a claw.
Chen Jin felt guilty, let alone "making the decision" for Shen Baichuan, she now just let him beat her and scold her without daring to fight back.
Seeing her and Shen Baichuan next to each other, Daju would get angry. They were dating seriously and openly, but it was like they were having an affair, and they had to sneak around to avoid the big orange guy just to hold hands.
I really raised a living ancestor.
Chen Jin asked Shen Baichuan to hand her the desk calendar and red pen on the table.
"Ms. Shen is coming over on New Year's Day. Should we go to the airport to pick her up?" As he said that, he circled New Year's Day.
"No. 2 has already agreed that our furniture will be exhibited in the furniture exhibition in Rong City. I have to go and take a look." No. 2 was also circled.
"Number 5 has also been decided. After the factories in the suburbs of Nancheng District relocate, more than a dozen plots of land of varying sizes will be auctioned. I promised my uncle that I would go and take a look." Another number was circled.
"Any other time is fine. I have plenty of leave now so I don't have to worry about it." The leave requests she had accumulated could form a small stack.
She is very likely to become the counselor who has taken the most leave since the founding of NTU. Even Vice President Sun hinted that there was no need for her to ask for leave so seriously. If she really had something to do and it would not interfere with her work, she could just leave quietly.
But Chen Jin felt that it was okay to leave work early, but if he had not been at his work station for half a day, it would be better to ask for leave. If something happens and I can't find her, I'm afraid I won't be able to wash myself clean even if I jump into the Yellow River.
While Daju was squinting and not paying attention, Shen Baichuan quietly moved over, "Let's do it on the 6th. No need to ask for leave." Shen Baichuan set a time and said, "Ms. Shen will come here to deal with the ancestral property of my grandfather's family. She will stay in Rong City for a while. She may also visit my grandfather's house."
“Oh oh. Then, you have to accompany Ms. Shen there, don’t suffer any loss.”
Shen Baichuan laughed, "Okay."
It's the details she'll pay attention to.
Before their heads even touched each other, the big orange cat raised its head and looked over, meowing fiercely. Shen Baichuan could only sigh and move away again, as if there was a galaxy between him and Chen Jin.
Moreover, Chen Jin was still trying to take sides, and advised him, "It's young, let it go."
The grumpy big orange guy is not to be messed with.
But it’s not like they don’t have any time to spend together. Shen Baichuan has been following Chen Jin’s car to and from get off work in recent days. Chen Jin refused to ride in his car to school because it was too conspicuous.
Shen Baichuan's car was colorful, and she still thought it looked good, but she could just follow it and drive it to school.
It wasn't that she was afraid that others would say that she was marrying above her station, but it was mainly because it would attract too many people to watch, like a gorilla in a zoo.
When going to work in the morning, Chen Jin walked people to the gate of the School of Computer Science, nodded and greeted several familiar colleagues of Shen Baichuan, and then went back to the School of Humanities.
Shen Baichuan was teased by his colleagues, and the joke changed from "Oh, you changed the color of your car today" to "Oh, your boyfriend sent you to work today", and they all wanted to dig out some gossip from him.
The teachers at the School of Computer Science knew Shen Baichuan's girlfriend very well. After learning that she was a counselor at the School of Arts, they asked their acquaintances about her.
I thought he was just an ordinary counselor, but I didn’t expect him to be an extraordinary counselor with great wealth and “fame”. It can be regarded as completely shutting up the mouths of those who wanted to introduce a partner to Shen Baichuan.
Shen Baichuan had no idea that others were thinking so much. After greeting his colleagues, he strode towards the office, took the textbook, and went directly to the computer room in the college, waiting for students to come to class.
As soon as Chen Jin arrived at the office, he heard some noise in their office.
He immediately quickened his pace and walked over.
There were seven students in the office, all seniors, standing in front of Zhou Ding's desk engaging in a "debate."
She listened for a while and finally understood.
A girl received a notice of intended employment from a publishing house in Rong City and she can report for the job after graduation.
Logically speaking, there is nothing to make a fuss about, as they have all been hired.
But there was a boy who was also interning at the same publishing house but was not accepted. He wrote a letter of complaint to the publishing house, saying that the girl had submitted a forged transcript in order to get an internship.
After checking, it is true.
So now the girl’s recruitment has been cancelled, and the boy who reported it has not been hired either.
Because of this incident, the boy was beaten by the girl's boyfriend. Now those who come to help the two of them are their roommates, classmates, and friends.
As for this matter...if she were to say, both of them have problems. Neither the act of fraud nor the act of reporting is worth promoting.
But in today's situation, it is hard to find a job in a good company, and it is indeed not easy for people to find a good publishing house to work in. This report was not successful. So the girl became even more excited.
Zhou Ding just kept a stern face and let them argue until they got to the bottom of it.
After a while, several sophomore class leaders came to find Chen Jin, and they all pricked up their ears to listen to the excitement.
Chen Jin glanced at them and knocked on the table, reminding them to get down to business.
A few people could only concentrate on sorting out the situation in their respective classes.
Chen Jin took the opportunity to give them a tight hug and whispered, "Don't cause me any trouble in the future."
"By the way, submit a list of the students who will stay on campus during the winter vacation to me. Just follow last year's template. Also, during your weekly class meetings, tell your classmates that sophomore and junior years are busy with schoolwork, so don't let part-time jobs delay your studies. For students who have difficulties, ask them to come to me privately."
"Also, during the winter and summer vacations, if you need to write a recommendation letter for internships at outside units or companies, you can set a time and come to see me during my working hours."
Several squad leaders nodded obediently.
Although Rich Sister doesn't like to hold meetings with them and rarely talks to them, she always gives good advice and is actually a nice person.
The main thing is, as long as you don't cause trouble, the rich sister is really easy to talk to.
They hadn't finished their work here yet, and the two groups of students finally stopped arguing because they were tired of it. Now it was Zhou Ding's turn to curse.
Both of them were scolded.
"You're both faking things and reporting them. Do you think that's glorious? You still have the nerve to bring this to me. If I were you, I'd want to keep this to myself!"
"No need to say more. Each of you should hand in a self-review."
Chen Jin secretly gave Zhou Ding a thumbs up.
After finishing his work, Chen Jin specially kept the monitor of the Chinese major to stay.
"Zheng Linxiu from your class said he wants to apply for a suspension of his subsidy. Do you know what's going on?"
"He is a good writer and received several royalties this semester. He said he can now afford his living expenses and can share the subsidy with other students in need."
"Is that so? That's fine."
As soon as the people left, Chen Jin said with emotion: "There is a golden house in the book."
She used to think that since she studied Chinese, she could make a living in this field, but she didn't expect that she was just thinking too much.
Without students in the office, they spoke more casually.
Teacher He joked, "Zhou Ding was a good-tempered young man, but after being a counselor for a year and a half, his temper has worsened."
Teacher Chang chuckled and said, "This shows that you have made progress. If you continue to grow for a few more years, you will develop a peaceful mentality like me. You won't even bother to scold me anymore. You will be able to calmly comfort yourself and your students."
Chen Jin was moved and asked Teacher Chang: "I have a very peaceful mentality, but I still can't help scolding students. How can I improve this?"
"...You have already reached the highest level, there is no need to change." Teacher Chang thought to himself: What's the point of asking? Is it really impossible to change it?
Sure enough, Chen Jin nodded and said, "I don't think it needs to be changed either."
Zhou Dingsheng looked up at the ceiling helplessly, "I beg you, please send this class of students away quickly!"
Chen Jin poured cold water on him, "Don't think like that. Didn't you hear the teacher always say that each class is worse than the previous one?"
Zhou Ding looked at Chen Jin in horror and felt even worse.
After get off work in the afternoon, Chen Jin took Daju to Shen Baichuan's house for dinner, mainly to make Daju reduce his dissatisfaction with Shen Baichuan.
To be honest, neither Chen Jin nor Shen Baichuan figured it out. It was Chen Jin who took it to be sterilized, but it behaved as if Shen Baichuan had taken it there.
Shen Baichuan said: “It may have been dissatisfied with me for a long time, and now it has the opportunity to vent.”
For example, start by grabbing its exclusive seat.
But after eating the food made by Shen Baichuan today, Daju didn't seem so dissatisfied anymore. Although he still meowed at Shen Baichuan a few times, he didn't look so fierce anymore.
After all, it would meow a few times to Chen Jin.
While watching TV at Shen Baichuan's house, Chen Jin received a call from her third uncle, asking her if she wanted to have dinner at home on New Year's Day.
Chen Jin lowered her head to glance at the big orange and secretly patted her paw, and replied: "Ms. Shen, Shen Baichuan's mother is coming from Hong Kong, Shen Baichuan and I plan to pick her up at the airport. Let's see what happens. I don't know if I can go back for dinner."
The third uncle hurriedly said, "Then don't go back. It just so happens that your third aunt and I want to visit relatives."
"Okay." Chen Jin smiled and said, "You and Third Aunt can go and do whatever you want. There's no need to wait for me to come back. It's not like I don't know how to find a restaurant to eat. By the way, is Yongan going with you? Oh, I'll go too. That's all."
As for the fact that her third uncle specifically said that he didn't have time to go to her furniture company's exhibition, Chen Jin waved her hand and said indifferently, "It's okay, I just went to take a look and then left. I don't understand."
Not long after I hung up the phone with my third uncle, my eldest uncle called again and asked directly, "When are we going to arrange a meal with Baichuan's family? I heard that they are all coming to Rong City."
Chen Jin sighed and said that Ms. Shen just came to visit and do some business. It was still early for the two families to eat, so there was no need to prepare so early.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Jin and Shen Baichuan said, “My second or third brother may call me later and say that Shen Baichuan’s family is coming over?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the phone rang.
The third cousin’s voice was particularly loud, “Are Shen Baichuan’s family coming over to have dinner with us?”
There's a slight deviation, but that's the meaning.
Chen Jin explained it again and hung up the phone. He said to Shen Baichuan: "See, the words have changed after two turns. Isn't it outrageous?"
"But there are even more outrageous stories in the village. If they spread out, even more outrageous versions will emerge." Chen Jin suddenly said, "In fact, living in Hanlin Garden is not bad."
There was a lot of excitement in the Rose Garden, but she didn't want a small matter to be spread out of proportion.
For example, Li Xingyi and Bai Ling, now in the Rose Garden community, there is a rumor that a graduate student from Nanjing University is dissatisfied with his wife and has cheated on her with multiple men at home...
It's so outrageous that it's scary.
The students in their school are still very moral. So far, the gossip about a graduate student couple in the School of Physics has not spread to the School of Humanities. I don't know if it is because the two schools are not close to each other.
Shen Baichuan deeply agreed with this.
He followed Chen Jin to the Rose Garden for dinner several times and met Aunt Zhou three times in total. He learned a lot each time.
It is indeed better to live in Hanlin Garden.
But they didn't go to pick up Ms. Chen in the end, because when Shen Baichuan called Ms. Chen, she said that they didn't need to pick her up.
Inexplicably, they had a day free, so Chen Jin and Shen Baichuan watched a movie at home for the whole morning.
At noon, I went to Tai'an Road in Dongcheng District and found a restaurant I had never been to before to eat...I encountered my first Waterloo in my search for food.
"The food is so unpalatable... no wonder it has to rely on decoration to attract people." Chen Jin gave this restaurant a big X.
Shen Baichuan still hasn’t recovered yet, even if he and Chen Jin, two average cooks, wouldn’t make a dish with a particularly strong fishy smell.
Although he didn’t have any delicious food at noon, Chen Jin took Shen Baichuan to the beauty salon to enjoy himself.
The shop assistants who were familiar with Chen Jin held back their laughter. When Chen Jin said that he would bring his partner over for beauty treatments, they were a little overwhelmed by the reaction.
The last time Chen Jin brought the tanned girl and the handsome man here, they felt that Chen Jin was an unusual person. Unexpectedly, she could be even more unusual: bringing her partner to do skin care and whitening together? !
Shen Baichuan was also very uncomfortable at first, not used to others touching his face, so he did what he could do by himself, and also eliminated a lot of complicated projects.
After he called out to Chen Jin a few times and no one responded to him, he turned around and saw that Chen Jin and Daju had already fallen asleep. And slept soundly.
After a while, Shen Baichuan also gradually closed his eyes. When I woke up, my mind was clear. I looked at the time and found that I had slept for a full hour. He could now understand what Chen Jin meant when he said, "This place is very hypnotic and suitable for sleeping."
"Do you feel relaxed?" Chen Jin stood up and stretched, saying, "You'll get used to it after you come a few more times."
Shen Baichuan thought: He might not be able to get used to other people touching his face, but he could still try to get used to it by accompanying her to take a nap here.
Third brother is right, Chen Jin has done a lot of tricks outside.
"Xiao Chen, you... Baichuan is here too? You guys?" Sister Zhao, oh no, let's call her Aunt Zhao, started to greet Chen Jin, and then saw Shen Baichuan following behind Chen Jin.
Having heard about Aunt Zhao's story last time, Chen Jin admired her very much.
"Today is a holiday, and I haven't decided where to go, so I came here for a beauty treatment. Aunt Zhao, are you waiting for your friend?"
"Yes." Aunt Zhao looked at the two of them and understood their relationship.
The last time she went to the Cheng family's old house, she saw Chen Jin, but Chen Jin and Yang Qian had a good relationship, so she thought it was just a few young people who got together to have fun. Even though Shen Baichuan and Chen Jin were chatting together the whole time, she didn't think much about it.
Now that I see it, I'm a little surprised.
But no matter how I thought about it, I never thought that these two young people could get together.
Since they had met, and since there was nothing else to do, Chen Jin and Shen Baichuan sat down to accompany Aunt Zhao while they waited for their friends to arrive.
"Xiao Chen, are you still busy with school work recently?"
"Yes, it's my main business. Now that the semester is almost over, I have to be busy." Chen Jin handed over a brand new business card, "I'm also busy with some side jobs. I don't have enough experience. If I have the chance in the future, I would like to ask Aunt Zhao for advice on business matters."
Aunt Zhao took the business card and looked at it, and couldn't help but look at Chen Jin again. Is this the side job she mentioned?
Jinshun Company, under it there is also a Baiyou Clothing Company and Nan'an Furniture Company?
She hadn't heard much about Nan'an Furniture Company, but she had heard a little about Baiyou Clothing. She had a friend who was one of the shareholders of Nansheng.
He laughed and said, "I'm afraid you have mixed up your main job and side job?"
