Chapter 64 Nothing
Lin Xiaotong and Hu Tou, the two little adults, were tired of watching. Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, they went into the yard together.
Xia Caiyun, Jin Qiaofeng and Diao Yulian were still fighting with each other in the alley.
"Dad, Mom, I'm back."
"Xiaotong is back, wash your hands and have dinner. I fried hairtail tonight."
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaotong's eyes lit up, the corners of her mouth curled up, and she ran to the kitchen to help get the bowls and chopsticks and serve the rice.
At the door, Xie Da Jiao was sitting in a wheelchair with a colorful cushion leaning against her waist.
You can tell at first glance that it is Gao Xiulan's work, it is colorful and bright.
Xie Da Jiao thought happily: His Xiulan is just worried about him.
"Old Xie, come and have dinner."
Gao Xiulan came out of the kitchen with a plate of fried hairtail, and Lin Xiaotong was holding pickled cabbage and cold-mixed shredded wood ear mushrooms.
"Here I come."
Xie Da Jiao responded and rolled the wheelchair to the dining table with his hands. He was now able to use it flexibly.
When the dishes were served, Lin Xiaotong went to help serve the rice.
We had sweet potato and multi-grain rice for dinner, with less sweet potato and more rice.
The sweet potato has a yellow core and tastes sweet when you take a bite.
Lin Xiaotong picked up a piece of fried hairtail fish and took a bite. The skin was crispy and the meat was tender, and the sound of "crunching" was heard in her ears.
"Mom, your cooking is so delicious! It's even better than the last time I ate at the state-owned restaurant!"
As she spoke, she gave a thumbs up, which made Gao Xiulan smile so much that the corners of her eyes curved into crescents.
"It's not as good as you say! Not even close."
"By the way, Xiaotong, what's that noise outside? Did you see it?"
"Mom, if you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten. It was Xia Caiyun who came to see Aunt Qiaofeng."
"Why did Xia Caiyun come to see Jin Qiaofeng? Wait, isn't she here to be a matchmaker?"
Gao Xiulan listened with a puzzled look on her face, and suddenly expressed her guess hesitantly.
"Mom, you are really smart, yes, but..."
Before Lin Xiaotong finished speaking, Gao Xiulan understood what she meant as soon as she heard it.
"Jin Qiaofeng will definitely refuse. I know her. She's always cautious and she definitely wouldn't dare take on a job like that troublemaker Xia Caiyun!"
"Mom, guess who Xia Caiyun is looking for a partner?"
I continued to pick up a chopstick of shredded wood ear mushrooms, which were crispy and delicious, refreshing and crispy.
"I heard that the eldest son of the Fu family joined the Revolutionary Committee. Should I tell him?"
Xie Da Jiao, who was listening nearby, added a sentence.
"That's probably it."
Gao Xiulan didn't even think about Fu Zhenggang.
"Wrong, Mom and Dad, you guessed wrong. She is looking for a partner for Fu Zhenggang."
After she finished eating, she added another spoonful of pickled cabbage.
"Besides, Xia Caiyun also said that the person she wants to find for Fu Zhenggang must be good-looking, from the city, and have a job!"
He counted on his fingers the requirements Xia Caiyun had for her future daughter-in-law.
"I think she's crazy. If you ask around about her family's affairs, you'll find out."
"Which family would dare to marry their daughter to their family?"
Gao Xiulan shook her head after hearing Xia Caiyun's outrageous request.
"Mom, you don't know, this morning when I was at work, Fu Zhenggang brought Zhao Yunyun to the department store..."
While eating, she talked about what happened this morning.
Under the yellow light, the three members of the Xie family talked and ate, and laughter and jokes could be heard from time to time.
…
Fu Zhengze was also in high spirits today. He wore a newly bought Zhongshan suit and frameless glasses and went to the restaurant in a respectable manner.
He had been waiting for several days, and someone came to him at noon today with a message saying that Director Wang wanted to see him.
When Fu Zhengze heard this, he thought that it must be done and it seemed that the gold was not wasted.
“Knock knock knock—”
Fu Zhengze knocked on the door and went in. He saw Director Wang sitting alone on a chair with a Moutai gift box on the table.
"My dear nephew, here you are. Come and sit down."
Director Wang patted the seat next to him with his fat hand, meaning for Fu Zhengze to sit over there.
"Director Wang, why are you here today..."
Fu Zhengze sat down on the chair next to Director Wang and asked.
"Hey, nephew, don't be nervous, just chat with yourselves."
Director Wang patted Fu Zhengze's shoulder and smiled brightly.
"You say."
Fu Zhengze sat up straight and spoke gently.
"My dear nephew, I was craving for wine yesterday, so I opened the wine you recommended and tried it, but..."
"Is the taste of Moutai not authentic? Did you discover this after finishing a bottle?"
A gleam of light flashed in Fu Zhengze's eyes behind the lenses. Could this old fox be so stupid that he didn't notice what was underneath?
"As for me, I realized halfway through the drink that it wasn't the taste of wine, but something hidden underneath..."
"nice one."
Director Wang leaned close to Fu Zhengze's ear and whispered the last three words.
Fu Zhengze's pupils dilated due to nervousness, and the next moment his heart was pounding with excitement.
"My dear nephew, did you accidentally leave this good thing with me?"
"Director Wang, you're really joking. How could I possibly endure this?"
“What you see is what you get!”
Fu Zhengze smiled after hearing Director Wang's question.
He thought to himself: It seems that the stepping stone he gave should have worked.
"Oh, really?"
"Do you think I'm stupid? You're trying to fool me with a fake thing!"
Director Wang's tone changed, and after he finished speaking angrily, he waved his hand and pushed the gift box off the table.
There was empty Maotai inside. The bottle fell to the ground with a crisp sound and broke. Under the fragments was neatly stacked gold.
"Director Wang, are you kidding me? How dare I fool you with fake stuff?"
Fu Zhengze was startled and immediately stood up to pick up the gold on the ground and put it back on the table.
"Why don't you dare? I think you are very brave!"
Director Wang looked at Fu Zhengze, who seemed afraid to admit it, and felt contempt for him.
"Do you think I'm a fool? Can't I tell the difference between gold and brass?"
After hearing this, Fu Zhengze's face finally changed, and all the blood color disappeared. His hands trembled as he stared at the gold on the table.
"Where did you get this gold? You weren't scammed too, were you?"
Director Wang stabbed Fu Zhengze twice in the heart.
"I got it by accident. Maybe I wasn't paying attention."
Fu Zhengze couldn't even laugh, but he suspected in his heart that Fu Zhenggang didn't give him the real one and was using a fake one to fool him.
"It must be with Fu Zhenggang!"
"Good boy, you treat me like your grandson!"
Fu Zhengze's face was gloomy and his hands were clenched into fists. He cursed Fu Zhenggang to death in his heart.
"You are not honest, if you want to go any further..."
It’s difficult!
Fu Zhengze understood the unspoken words and forced a smile on his face.
"Director Wang, what are your conditions? I will do my best to meet them."
"Can you give me everything I want?"
Director Wang narrowed his eyes and looked at Fu Zhengze and asked.
"As long as it's within my ability."
Fu Zhengze was determined to seize this opportunity, otherwise it would be difficult to make an appointment with Director Wang again.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you're quite straightforward. What about this? Can you give it to me?"
Director Wang leaned closer and touched Fu Zhengze's buttocks with his hand.
