Come on, butcher

On the last day of the holiday, Yue Peng and Chen Zifeng returned to school from home. Chen Zifeng did not forget to fulfill his promise and went to Zheng Haifei's greenhouse to play for a long time.Chen Zifeng really has the kind of skin that is prone to sunburn as he said, not to mention that his skin is darkened, and there are signs of sunburn and peeling, Xiao Xi looked at the horrible Chen Zifeng: "Why is it sunburned like this, no sunscreen? "I remember the last time I went out to play, he always put on sunscreen. How could he not wear sunscreen when he went to the countryside to do farm work.

"I brought it, but I'm busy all day long, and I don't have time to mend it. It's normal to get a little tan. It's okay, and I'll be back after a winter." Chen Zifeng grinned indifferently.

After paying such a high price and still being in such a good mood, it must be because he has gained a lot, Xiao Xi winked at him: "How is it? Is there any progress?"

Chen Zifeng laughed but said nothing, Xiao Xi asked eagerly, and then he said: "I don't know, I can't tell, let it take its course."

Xiao Xi felt that this should be developing in a better direction, so she couldn't help being happy for him, and patted him on the shoulder: "Seize the opportunity well, it will get better."

Chen Zifeng smiled shyly, and changed the subject: "You know this place very well, it seems like it's your own home."

Xiao Xi said proudly: "Of course, this is mine. I don't know which pot of meat here? Come on, I'll take you to gain experience." It's the last day of the holiday, and the number of passengers has decreased a lot. I won't even have time to go to the bathroom, but the busyness of these few days is worth it. The turnover is at least not less than 20, and I earn more in a week than in a summer.

Chen Zifeng was very interested, and followed Xiao Xi to visit for an afternoon. Before leaving, he bought several pots of cheap and good-looking succulents, and said to Xiao Xi: "Actually, I think it's good for the two of you to run a large shed. Seeing so many succulents every day The flowers and plants make me feel happy. I am not under the control of others, how comfortable I am.”

Xiao Xi shrugged and said, "It's pretty good here. But I haven't changed my mind yet, and I will still go to sea. After all, that is my long-standing dream."

Chen Zifeng nodded: "Alright. You have to experience something before you know what you really want."

After the National Day holiday ended, Zheng Haifei recruited a female employee, which she found from the succulent communication group. A local housewife quit her job after the birth of her son and took care of the child at home. I almost forgot, and I have to learn from scratch, so I just grow flowers and plants at home. Now that Zheng Haifei is recruiting in the greenhouse, I come here to apply. I work from [-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] pm. I have two days off a week and try to avoid weekends. .

Xiao Xi felt that this could not be better. The meat friends in the group must know something about succulents, and they should have heard a little about the relationship between him and Zheng Haifei. At least they will not make a fuss, especially married women. Worried about coveting Zheng Haifei's beauty.Xiao Xi was very satisfied with the new employee, so he ran to the shed when he had time, and quickly got acquainted with this elder sister named Luo Juan. He found that although Luo Juan was over thirty, he was an out-and-out The rotten girl is quite old, and she is a very sensible rotten girl. This is even better, and he and Zheng Haifei don't have to hide it in front of her.

Luo Juan also recommended a lot of Tanmei novels to Xiao Xi, which opened the door to another world for Xiao Xi. It turns out that in addition to the chaotic real-life gay circle, there is also a paradise-like Tanmei circle.Luo Juan liked Xiao Xi and Zheng Haifei very much, saying that they were different from the gay scene she knew, but similar to the countless BL novels she had read, pure and beautiful.

Luo Juan has the enthusiasm of northern women, is very capable, knows a lot about succulents, and is very eager to learn. Both Zheng Haifei and Xiao Xi like her very much, and Aunt Li also likes her very much, because finally there is a woman who can chat with her.

By the end of October, employers began to come to the school to recruit.According to the recommendation of the department, Xiao Xi submitted her resume to a shipping company and was waiting for an interview.

Xiao Yuhuan called Xiao Xi back with a phone call, saying that the family had important matters to discuss.Xiao Xi hurried back to school from home, only to find that Zheng Haifei was also there, his heart sank to the bottom, and his only thought was: Has the matter been exposed?How did you expose it?He looked at Zheng Haifei with questioning eyes, and Zheng Haifei looked at him calmly: "Uncle asked me to come here."

Xiao Xi suppressed her beating heart, pretended to be calm and sat down on the sofa: "Dad, what's the matter?"

Xiao Yuhuan said: "Since Xiao Xi is back, let's go to the study to talk."

Xiao Xi became more and more nervous, and only went to the study to talk about very formal matters.Xiao Yuhuan walked in front, Xiao Xi and Zheng Haifei followed behind, he squinted at Zheng Haifei with his eyes, Zheng Haifei also frowned, and shook his head slightly, expressing that he didn't know why.

Xiao Xi took a deep breath, if it was true that the two of them were exposed, then he should admit it frankly, so as not to hide it and see if his father can beat him to death.

Xiao Yuhuan entered the study and sat on the single sofa, while Xiao Xi and Zheng Haifei sat down on the double sofa, waiting for Dad Xiao to speak.Mother Xiao came in from behind with a pot of tea, and there were some snacks baked by herself on the tea tray, and said, "Why are you upstairs?"

As soon as Xiao Xi saw her mother's tea tray, she knew that the matter between him and Zheng Haifei would not be exposed, and her heart suddenly fell, and she jumped up excitedly to pick up the tea tray: "Mom, I'll come. You baked egg tarts again, my favorite Eat." After speaking, he grabbed one and stuffed it into his mouth.

Xiao Yuhuan frowned and looked at his son: "Be serious, you just know how to eat."

Xiao Xi grinned at Zheng Haifei with an egg tart in his mouth, and then swallowed the egg tart: "Okay, Father, please advise, and listen carefully."

Xiao Yuhuan said: "I heard that you have already submitted your resume to xx shipping company?"

So it was because of this, so why did you call Zheng Haifei here?Xiao Xi nodded: "En."

Xiao's mother sat on the armrest of her husband's sofa and looked at her son: "Xixi, do you really still want to be a seaman?"

Xiao Xi nodded: "That's right, I've always planned this way, and you all knew about it a long time ago."

Xiao's father and Xiao's mother looked at each other, Xiao Yuhuan raised his voice, and said: "As far as I know, the industry is currently in a recession and the prospects for development are not good, so what your mother and I mean is, do you want to change to someone else?" industry to try?"

Xiao Xi scratched her head: "What do you mean by the downturn? Is it a salary problem?"

Xiao's mother nodded sharply: "Yes, it's hard work and little money."

Xiao Xi said: "But I never expected it to make a fortune."

Xiao Yuhuan became serious: "Then you also have to think about your future life, you will get married and have children, buy a house, and support your wife and children will always need money."

"Xixi, my mother told you. If you really engage in this industry, it will be difficult to find a girlfriend in the future. No woman would want her boyfriend or husband to be away for many years. Even if I am your mother, I I won't be on your side either." Xiao Ma said earnestly.

Xiao Xi glanced at Zheng Haifei who had been sitting silently next to him, and thought that his wife was sitting next to him, and he probably wouldn't want to go to sea to work by himself, but why did his parents call this guy here? of?Xiao Xi cleared her throat and said: "Mom, the question you mentioned is a bit far away. In fact, I haven't thought about the question that Dad mentioned. I know that seafarers are actually not low in terms of the income level of our age group. Even It is higher than many industries, and its development prospects are not too bad, and the annual salary of a good one is hundreds of thousands. The only bad thing is the situation that my mother said, drifting away for many years without a home.”

Mother Xiao looked at her son: "Son, in fact, what mother wants to say is that not only your partner will be dissatisfied with your work status, but also mother is worried. I am just a son like you. Mom wants to see you often. Even if you go to Beijing It doesn’t matter whether it’s Guangdong or not, if you can’t go home, at least Mom still has a place to see you, right? If you get on the boat, Mom wants to see you, but you don’t know where to go, and you have been floating on the sea for many years, and you can’t get through the phone , what do you ask mother to do?"

Xiao Xi looked at her mother: "Mom, aren't you accompanied by my dad? I also have a few months of vacation a year, so I'll come to accompany you when I come back. How nice. See you every day. Seeing you will definitely bother me."

Xiao Yuhuan looked back at Zheng Haifei: "Xiao Zheng, you have been a sailor, how many holidays can you have in a year?"

Zheng Haifei didn't expect Xiao Yuhuan to ask himself this question suddenly, he hesitated for a while and said: "Generally speaking, you can rest for a month or two. The situation of each company is different, and the maximum is about three months."

Xiao Yuhuan added: "I know that all seamen are like this, and they have no income when they rest. Xiao Xi, although our family's conditions are good, but my father has always hoped that you will not be an old man, so I never thought of arranging for you. In the future life, do you understand what Dad means?"

Xiao Xi knew that his father meant that he would not buy him a house in the future.He nodded: "Well, I understand, I will support myself."

Xiao's mother looked at her son, opened her mouth, and finally said nothing. Her husband was cooperating with her to force her son, so she couldn't comfort him.

Xiao Yuhuan said to Xiao Xi: "Haven't you considered engaging in other industries, such as taking civil servant exams, public institutions, etc.?"

Xiao Xi shook her head: "I don't like doing that, it's too boring."

Xiao's mother quickly took the opportunity to say: "Xixi, you love planting flowers and grass so much, why don't you build a big shed to grow flowers like Xiao Zheng?"

Xiao Yuhuan said: "Your mother and I can invest the initial funds for your greenhouse, and the repayment can be postponed indefinitely."

Xiao Xi glanced at his parents suddenly, and then turned to stare at Zheng Haifei. It turned out that he also joined the ranks of lobbying for himself not to be a seaman?Was he the one who suggested building a greenhouse for himself?

Zheng Haifei's throat tightened a little from Xiao Xi's questioning and shocked eyes, he swallowed hard and said, "Uncle and Auntie asked me about building a greenhouse a long time ago, and it wasn't just a temporary idea. But regarding your career, I think it is more appropriate to follow your own opinion. After all, I have experienced that period myself, and only after experiencing it will you know whether it is suitable for you or not."

Xiao Xi snorted softly, forgetting that he said something human, otherwise, let's see how he will settle accounts with him!

Xiao Xi said earnestly: "Dad, Mom, I like tending flowers and plants very much, but at present I want to be a sailor more. Maybe I come back after going around outside and think it's better to be on the shore, so I will come back willingly. But if you force me to quit being a seaman, then I may never be reconciled for the rest of my life, and I will still blame you in my heart."

Xiao's mother's throat was a little choked: "But mother is for your own good."

"Thank you mom, it's better for me to choose my own path in life. Don't worry, no matter what, I will never blame you."

Xiao Yuhuan looked at his son and sighed: "You don't change your mind no matter what?"

Xiao Xi nodded, very lightly, but with unquestionable firmness: "Don't change!"

Xiao Yuhuan said: "Okay then, you go. If you regret it later, you will come back and change your career. Your parents will not give you any financial support."

Xiao Xi glanced at his parents, and then set his eyes on Zheng Haifei: "Yes."

Xiao's father and Xiao's mother also looked at Zheng Haifei, a little disappointed with his performance today. They expected him to be an ally, but they didn't expect him to be on Xiao Xi's side.
