Chapter 290 The old friend
What Zheng Tan hates the most is facing children of this age. You can't reason with them, and even if you can, Zheng Tan can't. If you don't cooperate with them or retaliate a little bit, they will cry to you and summon the parents.
.Compared with this, Zheng Tan felt that Zhuo Mao Mao was easier to deal with.
Although he found it troublesome, Zheng Tan was not the type to sit there and wait to be hit. When the little kid put his hand into the bag, Zheng Tan was ready to be thrown. Sure enough, a round thing
So I threw it over, and it was quite accurate. It seemed that the child had played with this thing a lot.
Zheng Tan raised his hand to knock back the small ball that was about to hit his head, and then looked at the child not far away.
The thrown ball was batted away. Not only did the child not cry, but his eyes lit up and he became more energetic. He reached into the bag and threw another ball.
Zheng Tan didn't want to play with this kid anymore after he shot three balls away in succession. Mother Jiao and her two children watched Zheng Tan shoot the ball. Just now, they were planning to go over and stop the kid from hitting the ball, but they looked at the little round ball.
It's very soft and doesn't hurt if hit. My cat still plays with it a lot.
"Happy", they didn't stop them. Now they saw that their cat looked completely uninterested, and the child obviously hadn't had enough fun yet. Mother Jiao was afraid that the child would come over and provoke her cat, so she got up from the stone bench next to her and prepared to go there.
Talk to the kid.
Before Jiao's mother walked over, someone was calling the child's name over there. It looked like the child's parent.
A couple came over. The woman went to pull the child who was trying to walk towards Zheng Tan and the others. The man glanced at Zheng Tan. He paused and then glanced at Jiao Ma and his party next to him. He seemed a little confused and confused.
Not sure, he stepped forward and asked, "Are you from Professor Jiao's family?"
Mother Jiao glanced at the person in front of her. She felt a little unfamiliar. Even if she had seen him before, she had no impression of him. However, she didn't seem to be a hard person to get along with, so she responded with a polite smile.
When the man heard this, he knew that he was right, and the smile on his face deepened. "It is indeed you!"
Zheng Tan had noticed that this man looked familiar. He just didn't think of it for a moment. Now when he heard the man introduce himself to Jiao's mother, he remembered that he had met this man named Zheng Xuan when he went back to Jiao's father's hometown for the New Year.
, this man also gave Father Jiao a business card. The reason why Zheng Tan had an impression of this man was that he worked in Nancheng. The other was that this man had the same surname as Zheng Tan. Now that he thought about it, it was really fate.
Zheng Xuan brought his wife and children to Nanhua City to attend a relative's wedding banquet today. He didn't expect to meet anyone from the Jiao family. He goes back to his hometown to pay homage every year, except for the time when he met the Jiao family, and later during the New Year.
They all come and go in a hurry, and they don’t take the elderly or children with them, but they have heard about the Jiao family. After all, Professor Jiao is praised more frequently by many elderly people in that area. In the hearts of some elderly people with more traditional ideas, university professors
than some businessmen
His status is higher, so every time he mentions some famous people in the surrounding villages, Zheng Xuan will hear something about Professor Jiao, but he has never met him. He has a good memory and can remember people, even if he is not very good at it.
I remember exactly what the Jiao family look like, and I also remember that special black cat that always stayed with the Jiao family. One of the reasons why my children especially like to play with cats after returning to Nancheng is because of the black cat in the Jiao family.
The impression left on the child.
Knowing from Jiao's mother that Professor Jiao was also nearby, Zheng Xuan decided to stay here for a while and wait for Professor Jiao to come back to chat with everyone. After all, they are fellow villagers. It is not difficult to meet fellow villagers in Nanhua City, but there are some social
For fellow countrymen with high status, it is not so easy.
Since they all knew each other and were fellow villagers, Zheng Xuan asked his wife and children to come over and sit for a while.
Zheng Xuan's son, the kid who just threw the ball at Zheng Tan, kept staring at Zheng Tan. He looked like he was always thinking about taking the ball out of the bag and playing with Zheng Tan. Zheng Tan ignored him and didn't even look at him.
That little kid, with Jiao's mother, Jiao Yuan and Little Youzi here, he is not afraid of the kid throwing things at him.
Not long after, Father Jiao and others came over chatting. What Zheng Tan didn't expect was that Yuan Zhiyi and Zheng Xuan also knew each other. As soon as they met, they exchanged greetings with "Mr. Yuan" and "Mr. Zheng". Knowing Zheng Xuan
Yuan Zhiyi felt happy because she and Jiao's father were fellow villagers. With this kind of relationship, it seemed that the other party had no intention of alienating each other. There should be room for maneuver in the business that was not negotiated last week.
Thinking of Yuan Zhiyi, she glanced at the black cat squatting by the riverside watching the night view. Just now Zheng Xuan said that they had planned to go back directly. When they turned around, they found that their children had run away. When they came over, they found that their children were playing with Jiao's cat.
I recognized the Jiao family.
Thinking of this, Yuan Zhiyi sighed in his heart, he is indeed a lucky star.
Therefore, when Yuan Zhiyi was happy, she started to tremble. She suffered from intermittent amnesia and forgot Zheng Tan's name. When introducing Zheng Tan to her former college classmates standing next to her, she said: "This is a fortune for the Mingsheng family."
Many of Jiao's father's college classmates thought Zheng Tan was called "Zhaocai" and said that the name was down-to-earth. Compared with various Westernized pet names around, the name "Zhaocai" did sound local.
There were many, but they only found out Zheng Tan’s real cat name after listening to Jiao’s father’s explanation. The two of them glanced at Zheng Tan and said, “Oh, the name Heitan is more down-to-earth.”
Knowing that Dad Jiao and Yuan Zhiyi would stay in Nanhua City for a while, the two college classmates were not in a hurry. They also made an appointment to find a few classmates who worked here to get together. After they left, Yuan Zhiyi
I started to talk to Zheng Xuan about the business that had not been concluded last time. Dad Jiao happened to be here, so the company also had Dad Jiao, so he could give some more advice.
Zheng Xuan's tone this time was much more easy-going, not as formulaic and commercial as the last time he talked to Yuan Zhiyi, and he showed a "this matter can be discussed" attitude. This surprised Dad Jiao, after all, he was like this to many businessmen.
Friendship is friendship, business is business, keep things separate.
Zheng Xuan adopted this attitude today just to get acquainted with Father Jiao and Yuan Zhiyi.
Although Zheng Xuan comes from a grassroots background, he can be considered capable for being able to work hard to achieve his current wealth. When he first met the Jiao family, Zheng Xuan was working for others in a senior position, and later he became the boss of the company on his own.
In Nancheng, the company has been running quite well in the past two years. Otherwise Yuan Zhiyi would not have approached him. He also has his own way of dealing with people.
"I'm going back to Nancheng tomorrow. I can't leave the company. Why don't you, Professor Jiao and Mr. Yuan, go to Nancheng and have a meal together?" Zheng Xuan said.
"Okay, we will go to Nancheng next week, but I don't know if Mr. Zheng will be free then." Yuan Zhiyi said with a smile.
"If you don't have time, you have to make time. Then I'll be waiting for you in Nancheng."
Zheng Xuan's cell phone rang, and he did not continue chatting with Dad Jiao and the others. After saying goodbye, he took the cell phone to talk to someone and asked his wife and children to leave.
Zheng Tan had been listening since they talked about Nancheng. He heard Zheng Xuan talking about the location of his company. Zheng Tan was very familiar with it. That area was full of commercial office buildings. Zheng Tan had gone there often before.
While running, because Zheng Tan’s father’s company was also there.
So Zheng Tan decided to shamelessly follow Jiao's father and Yuan Zhiyi there. Jiao's mother and the two children would not stay there for long when they went to Nancheng.
After playing in Nanhua City for a few days, Zheng Tan was playing absent-mindedly. Mother Jiao thought that Zheng Tan was acclimatized, but she didn’t know that Zheng Tan was very familiar with this place. Although he lived in Nancheng before, he was still in Nanhua City.
I have been running around a lot, so how could I not get used to it? It’s just that Zheng Tan has been thinking about going to Nancheng, counting the days on his fingers every day.
Finally, when the day of departure arrived, Zheng Tan was so excited the night before that he didn't fall asleep, and he didn't sleep in the car either. He just looked out the window at the familiar scenery.
The last time he came to Nancheng as a cat, Zheng Tan came here as a stray. He secretly boarded a pickup truck and got off the car secretly. He was covered in filth and had no place to take a bath. He raised fish in a community.
During the cold bath in the pool, there was no "identity card" at that time. Zheng Tan even snatched the cat tag of a noble and elegant Persian cat and wore it himself.
Looking back on my wandering life, I was really careful every step of the way. I was really frightened by the experience and knowledge of those cat meat restaurants. At that time, Zheng Tan was almost chopped up and stewed in soup.
But now, Zheng Tan appeared in this city openly and openly.
Looking at the street scene in Nancheng, Zheng Tan suddenly wanted to shout loudly: I'm back again!
Unfortunately, we can't.
In Nancheng, they could only stay in a hotel, and Zheng Tan started hiding in his backpack again. Fortunately, he only had to hide twice a day.
The next day after arriving in Nancheng, Mother Jiao took her two children to exchange feelings with the classmates they had contacted, and asked Zheng Tan to come with them. Zheng Tan turned away and refused to go, pretending not to hear what Mother Jiao said, and stayed in Yuan Zhiyi's car. What did she say?
He didn't leave either. Jiao's father's car might still be driven away by Jiao's mother, but Yuan Zhiyi must have driven to Zheng Xuan's company, so Zheng Tan got into Yuan Zhiyi's car.
"Oh, if he doesn't want to go there, he can go. He can also have a big meal with us later. It's not like Nancheng doesn't even have a pet-friendly restaurant." Yuan Zhiyi said indifferently, and he was quite happy with this situation.
, which means you may have good luck again today.
Mother Jiao had no choice but Father Jiao didn't say anything, so she let Zheng Tan do whatever he wanted.
Zheng Xuan didn't have any objections to Dad Jiao taking Zheng Tan with him. After the three of them talked, it was time to eat. After Zheng Xuan looked at his watch, he said to Dad Jiao and Yuan Zhiyi: "I'll take you to a good place today.
The food will definitely make you want to come back. Oh, pets are allowed there too, as long as you take care of yourself, it’s okay.”
What Zheng Xuan took Dad Jiao and the others to was not a five-star hotel or a fancy Western restaurant, but a restaurant with a somewhat primitive architectural style. Zheng Xuan's car was in front, and he took them to the parking lot to park the car.
.
"Guqinshe?" Yuan Zhiyi pointed to the three words at the door of the store and said to Father Jiao next to him: "Am I right?"
"That's right, it's Guqinshe." Dad Jiao replied.
Cheng
A place to eat. As for the name, Guqin is actually the name of the proprietress here. I heard that her ancestors
I have been to the Royal Chef and have the secret recipe handed down from ancestors. Anyway, I think the stir-fried cabbage here is better than the ones in other places. After eating it, I don’t feel that the taste is the same when I eat it in other places. This place is often crowded and I have to eat it every time.
I made a reservation a few days in advance. Fortunately, I know the owner here and asked him to reserve a seat for me.”
Zheng Xuan took Father Jiao and Yuan Zhiyi inside while recommending the food here.
Zheng Tan stayed in his backpack, thinking, Guqinshe, the name sounded a little different. (To be continued...)
ps: A few book friends asked me privately if it was going to be finished. I would like to say here that there is still some time before it is finished. Many holes have been dug but have not yet been filled. Xiaozhuo has not come back yet, and Heitan has not yet followed Dashan.
Chapter completed!
