Chapter 452: Chief Feng’s Gift
Zhou Huaiyi held the notice in his hand and leaned against the window facing the courtyard, his back to Xiaoting and Huang Ling as if he wanted to get some light. After a while, he solemnly put the notice back into the brown paper bag, turned around and said to Xiaoting:
"Let's go home, we'll buy some fresh shrimps, and dad will cook them for you."
"Okay, one shrimp, two ways to eat!" Xiaoting nodded happily.
"Three ways to eat it: steamed vermicelli, fried, and shrimp cakes!"
"good!"
Zhou Huaiyi turned around, took his briefcase, and led his wife and daughter out.
Passing by Xiao Cui's office, I said to him, "Xiao Cui, there's a happy event at home today. I'm going home first. Please write me a leave note."
"Okay, Director Zhou."
On the way, everyone saw that he was in high spirits. When they saw Xiao Ting, they asked, "Director Zhou, your daughter got her college acceptance letter. Where did she get into?"
"Yes, I just got it today, from Fudan University." Zhou Huaiyi answered modestly, but his joy was evident in his words.
“That’s great!”
"Director Zhou is satisfied."
People from the offices on both sides of the corridor came out to congratulate him. Since it had not been finalized before, when others asked about Zhou Huaiyi, they just gave a perfunctory response.
"I'm satisfied, I'm satisfied no matter where she takes the exam. As long as my daughter is happy, that's all that matters." Zhou Huaiyi said, looking at Xiaoting lovingly.
"Director Zhou, you and your wife are really good at raising children. You two are so busy, but your children still have such good grades." Deputy Director Deng has a poor student at home. He is so envious that he wants to call his son who is in the second year of high school and scold him.
Zhou Huaiyi quickly replied, "How can I teach a child with my level? Her mother is in charge, and it's the result of the child's own hard work."
"I'll just throw my son to your house. I'm so angry that I'm dying." Deputy Director Deng slapped his thigh and came up with an idea.
"Deputy Director Deng, if you say so, I think so too." Someone took over.
“…”
Huang Ling looked up and saw Yue Sheng's delivery staff pushing a cart to the entrance of the corridor. She had just borrowed a phone at the College Entrance Examination Office and called Yue Sheng to ask them to deliver the cakes to the Industrial Bureau.
Huang Ling then took over and said to everyone, "I'd like to thank you all on behalf of Xiaoting. We'll treat everyone to some cakes. You're welcome!"
After sharing the cakes, the family of three finally "escaped" from the crowd and returned home.
After leaving the Industrial Bureau, Zhou Huaiyi hurriedly asked, "Dongzhe's notice also arrived, right?"
"Yes, we arrived together. I'm afraid he's crying in the room over there right now!" Huang Ling said with a smile.
"Song Ying must be very happy too. What about Pengfei?" Zhou Huaiyi said with a smile.
"Pengfei's hasn't arrived yet."
"Oh, that should be soon."
He looked at his wife and then at his daughter, his heart filled with joy.
The three of them went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables together.
Many vegetable vendors in the market are suppliers of Suihualou, and they all recognize Huang Ling. Huang Ling greeted them as if she was inspecting her work.
"Dad, my mom had the same attitude when she joined the Industrial Bureau." Xiaoting whispered.
She didn't know why, but she could scream so naturally.
"Wherever there is a little bit of connection with her business, it's like this." Zhou Huaiyi also whispered.
"I don't know what kind of sophisticated instrument my mother's brain is. How can she remember so many names of so many people?"
"She shifted the function of remembering routes to remembering people's names." Zhou Huaiyi covered his mouth with his hand and lowered his voice.
Xiaoting was amused by him.
Huang Ling turned around and glanced at the two of them, and they quickly shut up.
"You are saying bad things about me! I didn't take it for free. I'm not selling it." Huang Ling raised the pear in her hand, which was just stuffed into her hands by a vegetable seller.
The two nodded sharply at her.
When they reached the end of the road, Zhou Huaiyi and Xiaoting went left, while Huang Ling went right alone.
Zhou Huaiyi hurriedly called her: "Here, over there, they're out, the shrimp haven't been bought yet!"
"Oh." Huang Ling quickly turned around and followed them.
While Huang Ling was not paying attention, Zhou Huaiyi and Xiaoting looked at each other.
After buying the food, the three of them went home.
After returning home, Zhou Huaiyi went to cook, and Huang Ling called relatives and friends one by one to tell them the good news.
After the meal was ready, she put down the phone:
"Oh, my mouth is dry."
Xiaoting smiled and offered her some water.
"Xiaoting, is there anyone I've missed?" Huang Ling asked.
Xiao Ting shook her head: "No leak."
"We will be at home tomorrow. I guess your aunt and grandmother will come." Huang Ling thought about it and made arrangements.
"I'm at home too. I guess your Uncle Ma and the others will come too. I have to arrange dinner." Zhou Huaiyi answered while setting the table.
The meal was placed in the yard. The family of three ate a shrimp feast in the night breeze, talking about Xiaoting and the future of this family.
Just after finishing the meal, Commander Feng arrived. She rushed into the courtyard and said loudly:
"Our Xiaoting was admitted to Fudan University!"
"Chief, you are so well-informed!" Zhou Huaiyi said with a smile.
"You're like a peacock. I heard several people talking about it right after I entered the compound. How could I not know that two people in your family graduated from prestigious universities? The house number plate in front of your house is probably going to be rubbed against by others."
Commander Feng sat down, took the tea handed to him by Xiaoting, took a sip, then put it on the table. Then he took out a leather bag as thick as a finger from his pocket and handed it to Xiaoting.
"This is a gift for getting into college. Tunan has one, and Xiaoting of course has one too."
Xiao Ting took it with both hands and said as soon as she touched it: "Thank you, Chief Feng, it's a pen."
Commander Feng nodded.
Xiaoting opened the leather bag and took out a Parker fountain pen with a silver background and silver checkered pattern.
Understated luxury.
"Commander Feng, this is too expensive..." Xiaoting grew up in this wealthy family and naturally had seen a lot of good things, so she roughly knew the value of this money.
"Xiaoting, you deserve it! Use it well and write your bright future." Commander Feng stood up and patted Xiaoting on the shoulder.
The family thanked Chief Feng and sent him to the gate of the courtyard. At this time, the phone at home rang. Huang Ling guessed who was asking about the situation and asked Xiaoting to answer the phone.
The couple sent Chief Feng to the gate of the courtyard and saw that Chief Feng came alone, so they simply sent her home and took a walk to digest the food.
On the way back, Zhou Huaiyi asked Huang Ling:
"Commander Feng didn't even open his mouth, he just said something, and you helped get the job done."
Huang Ling smiled:
"I can't escape Captain Zhou's eagle eyes! She can't intervene in this matter, but I'm not afraid. Anything that can be solved with money is not a big deal. She has spared no effort to help Tunan, and I've finally managed to repay her kindness!"
Zhou Huaiyi knew Commander Feng well. He knew there must be something going on since he came to deliver gifts in person.
He had only heard of one case recently and didn't know that Huang Ling had already done it.
He nodded and said, "That's right. Although Tunan may be able to get a good job without our help, but..."
"But who doesn't want something better, right!" Huang Ling smiled and hugged his arm, and the two walked home side by side.
"Aren't you afraid of the heat? Why are you leaning against it?" Zhou Huaiyi joked with a smile on his face.
"I'm not afraid now!" Huang Ling replied.
At the beginning of the year, Huang Ling took Zhu Xiuyu and Chu Wanghai to Shanghai and did two things.
The first thing was to finalize Hongbin’s job.
The second thing was that Zhu and Chu stepped in to help a relative of Chief Feng solve a small problem.
At first, Zhu Xiu Yu thought that Huang Ling wanted her to go with her because of Hong Bin, but later she realized that asking her to go had nothing to do with Hong Bin.
She laughed and said, "Whenever you go out, you have to plan everything, right? You can't just do one thing on one trip."
Huang Ling nodded: "You are good at talking, and Xiao Chu knows the ropes. You two really have to go. I'm afraid people will recognize us."
Zhu Xiuyu was now also willing to be used by Huang Ling. She shook her head and said, "Okay, okay, you're shifting the blame quite far."
"I calculated the weight of this pot. I only threw it because you two could catch it."
Huang Ling got the job done while she was talking nonsense seriously.
