Green tea has a new trick
Sun Zhao only asked Song Xiaojuan some basic questions, and Song Xiaojuan told the truth.
"Sometimes I feel down for no reason and lack energy. I lose my temper over the smallest things, and I get even more irritated when my child cries. I also don't know what to do about it. I think I'm usually a very optimistic person. What causes my depression?"
Sun Zhao chuckled at her last sentence. "I didn't expect women in our country to be so open-minded. You should speak out about this. Don't be shy. There are many factors contributing to your depression, such as endocrine factors. During pregnancy and childbirth, the endocrine system in your body undergoes significant changes. Twenty-four hours after delivery, your hormone levels fluctuate dramatically..."
These professional terms sounded like hieroglyphics to Song Xiaojuan. Although she kept nodding her head, she really didn't understand. Sister, just tell me how to treat it and the results.
Song Xiaojuan estimated that after ten minutes, Sun Zhao finally stopped and asked, "Do you understand?"
Song Xiaojuan's mind went blank, but her face was full of admiration. "Great! Now I understand. So, how should Miss Sun be treated?"
"First, for psychological treatment, you can come to see me once a week. When you're at home, listen to music more often, do some relaxing activities, such as deep breathing, taking a walk, and meditating... As for medication, it's not available in China right now, so I can ask my overseas classmates to mail it to me."
When Song Xiaojuan came out, Zhao Jianian was already asleep in his father's arms.
What's wrong with Zhao Guomin today? He is so tactless. The child fell asleep, so he should have taken her home immediately. Instead, he was so stubborn and waited for her to come out.
Song Xiaojuan asked about it when she got home.
He didn't reply but carefully put the child on the bed and covered him with a quilt before coming out.
"I want to tell you something."
Song Xiaojuan was frightened by his seriousness and blinked: "What's wrong?"
"Sun Zhao might be my mother."
Song Xiaojuan spat a mouthful of water directly into Zhao Guomin's face. She quickly stood up and took a tissue to wipe it off for him. She couldn't help but tease him: "No, when did you learn to have a dry sense of humor? Sun Zhao is not even as old as you. Stop talking nonsense."
"She looks just like my mom...my biological mom when she was young."
Song Xiaojuan saw that Zhao Guomin was like a lost puppy. In fact, he was also missing his mother. She had a weak family affection and had always thought that his family was the same, so she had never taken care of his emotions in this regard.
Now she understood why he would visit his grandmother's and great-grandmother's house every time he came to Beijing. Even if the other party didn't know him, he would not give up because it was a wish of his.
Thinking of this, Song Xiaojuan felt very uncomfortable. She rubbed against him twice, hugged the big guy in her arms without saying anything.
But Zhao Guomin understood.
He knew that everything in his life had changed. Sun Zhao was Sun Zhao, and in this life his mother was Li Cuifen. His wife, son, and family were his family, and he should let go of the past.
For many years afterwards, Zhao Guomin never set foot in the alley where his grandmother lived again. Of course, this is all a story for the past, let’s get back to the present.
The two stayed in Beijing for half a month, and after completing all the necessary procedures and transferring the house to Zhao Jianian's name, they set out on their return journey.
On my first day back in the county, before I even had time to settle down, Li Fengjiang called me: "Are you guys coming out for a drink today?"
Zhao Guomin looked at Song Xiaojuan and saw her peeling an apple with an expressionless face. She said to Li Fengjiang in a hollow voice: "No, let's wait for another day."
"Come out, haven't you always wanted to find a beverage factory to cooperate with? There's one here today."
Zhao Guomin hung up the phone and uncomfortably picked up a piece of cut fruit and ate it. "I'm going out for a while."
Recounted Li Fengjiang's words.
The reason why he felt so uncomfortable was that Li Fengjiang had made an appointment at a KTV and he always asked for singing companions, which Zhao Guomin was quite disgusted with. Song Xiaojuan also had a very sensitive nose.
But since the leaders and bosses liked it, he had to go and could only lie to Song Xiaojuan.
Song Xiaojuan didn't say anything, but she knew it clearly in her heart. How could Li Fengjiang organize a party just to have a meal? He was just doing business here. This was the atmosphere, and she had to endure it even if she didn't like it.
She raised her eyelids, pretending not to know, and said gently with a smile: "Then drink less tonight and come back early."
Zhao Guomin went straight to the karaoke bar that had just opened in the county. As soon as he entered, the manager came over quickly: "Hey, Mr. Zhao is here. Section Chief Li and his family are in Room 204. I'll take you there."
Zhao Guomin waved his hand. "No need. Go ahead and do your thing. I'll go over there myself. The bill will be charged to me later."
In fact, the relationship between him and Li Fengjiang had deteriorated a long time ago. Li Fengjiang asked him to come, and half of the money was for introducing business, and half was for paying the bill.
When I pushed open the door of the box, I heard the howling of wolves and ghosts. A bald middle-aged man was hugging a girl in stockings and a miniskirt and singing "Borrow Another Five Hundred Years from Heaven".
He glanced at Zhao Guomin and ignored him, continuing to sing.
Li Fengjiang waved to him. Zhao Guomin sat next to him. The box was flashing with colorful disco lights. He could not see anyone except Li Fengjiang.
Li Fengjiang pointed at his bald head and whispered in his ear: "The director of Dongyuan Beverage Factory has no other hobbies, he just likes young girls." After saying that, he smiled obscenely.
Zhao Guomin curled his lips, said nothing, and handed Li Fengjiang a cigarette.
When I was searching for my lighter in my pocket, a pair of white and tender hands reached out from beside me: "Are you looking for this?"
The voice sounded familiar. Zhao Guomin turned around and didn't know when Yang Yue sat next to him. He immediately frowned and said in a cold voice, "Why are you here?"
Yang Yue glanced at Li Fengjiang, then returned her gaze to Zhao Guomin: "Because I was the one who invited Director Xu here."
She was transferred to the Planning Bureau last year.
Xu Chang wanted to expand the factory, and in order to approve the land, he had to deal with her a lot. She had no background and no good family, so if she wanted to marry well, she could only rely on herself.
So when she meets someone with good conditions, she will pay close attention.
She was fed up with poverty and wanted to find someone with brains and background. Her goal was clear from the beginning.
Later, reality told her that people with good backgrounds would marry someone of equal status, and she would never be able to marry into such an educated family. After facing the reality, she lowered her standards.
A colleague at work expressed his affection for her, but like her, he had parents from the countryside and a bunch of brothers and sisters, and he himself had no chance of promotion.
She could only hang on while continuing to look for him until she met Zhao Guomin.
At first I just thought he was good-looking, but later I found out that he was still young but had already opened two fruit shops and contracted an orchard.
Her mind became active, and after being rejected several times by Zhao Guomin, she wanted to give up.
But I accidentally heard from Li Fengjiang that he also bought a house in Beijing.
This man had a really far-sighted vision, and her sinking heart rekindled.
What men need most, besides youth and beauty, is help. She is confident that she can be a good wife to him. As for his wife, huh! What kind of vision can a mere woman who runs a clothing store have?
Thinking of this, her smile became even sweeter.
"I finally got Director Xu together after several attempts. I was afraid it wouldn't be a good idea for a girl to come alone, so I asked Section Chief Li to come along. It's okay, right?" Yang Yue said as she handed him a glass of wine.
Zhao Guomin didn't answer. He glanced at Li Fengjiang and raised his chin.
Li Fengjiang was close, and whispered a little loudly into his ear: "What a great thing! Who cares who introduced him? The advantage is yours. Women will believe anything if you coax them."
Zhao Guomin was indeed troubled by the issue of finding a manufacturer.
But he also didn't want to get attached to Yang Yue. Once you get attached to a woman like that, there's no way you can get away from her. If Song Xiaojuan finds out, she'll definitely make him suffer.
"Haha, Chief Li, do you want to order a song?" Xu Chang suddenly spoke, interrupting Zhao Guomin's thoughts.
Li Fengjiang crossed his legs and gave him a token applause. "I'm tone-deaf, but Director Xu is the best at singing. Today, I'd like to introduce you to a singing buddy. Mr. Zhao Guomin is also knowledgeable about singing. Director Xu will have a singing partner from now on, haha."
Zhao Guomin stood up, extended his hand, and said calmly, "I've admired you so much, Director Xu."
"Oh, Chief Li's friends are all so handsome. I wonder what makes President Zhao so outstanding." Xu Chang sat down between Zhao Guomin and Yang Yue with a casual look.
Zhao Guomin is very familiar with this kind of occasion. Today, this guy named Xu cannot be let go. As for Yang Yue, let's talk about it later.
"Waiter, bring in a box of wine." Yang Yue stood up, opened the door and shouted outside.
Zhao Guomin glanced at him indifferently and said nothing.
