Tianshi Museum

After the uncle and nephew of the Chen family left, until December, the Tianshi Museum did not receive any commissions.

During the period, Shen Gun and Xia Zha contacted Zheng Liang once, and went to Zhang Liming's cousin's shop to buy jade.The batch of good products mentioned by Zheng Liang had unsatisfactory aura, and most of them were used by Shen Gun to refine magic weapons for repairing formations.

At the end of the new calendar, the streets are full of Christmas and New Year's Day atmosphere, but all of this has little to do with Tianbo, the quaint courtyard isolates the hustle and bustle of the outside world.Walking out of this alley on Jiaxu Road and looking outside, you can see the Christmas trees in the shop windows on the street, with cute decals like snowflakes and Santa hats, and you can see the atmosphere of a foreign festival.

In Tianbo, Shen Gun is popularizing foreign festivals and cultures for Xia Zha.

Because he was adopted by the old-fashioned old heavenly master since he was a child, Shen Gun did not celebrate these festivals.Of course he didn't reject it, but for him and the old Tianshi, apart from New Year's Day, which is used to distinguish the year, other festivals have no meaning to remember.

As a new zombie who is adapting to modernization, Xia Zha is sitting on a mahogany chair, his black hair is tied into a ponytail, a cup of tea is in hand, and what he is reading in his hand are books introducing Western festivals and the birthday of Jesus.

When he encountered something he didn't understand, he asked Shen Gun who was sitting opposite. The two of them were in such an ancient room, and the conversation spanned the era.

Xia Zha likes to learn new cultures and knowledge. In the past, he was good at accepting the customs and traditions of the enemy. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle.Those who can inherit the original and accommodate the world are the ones who achieve great things.

Thinking of this, Xia Zha couldn't help feeling: "Modern life is convenient for communication, and it really is a hotbed for cultural integration."

Shen Gun: "Want to go and see how they celebrate the festival?"

Xia Zha nodded: "I'm a little curious."

Before his death, Xia Zha had never been to temple fairs, lantern festivals and other occasions, and now the festivals will only be more lively than before. To learn a culture, one must immerse yourself in its customs. Xia Zha really wants to see it.

"That's good," Shen Gun made a decision, "There is a church not far from our place. The church is surrounded by a business district. It is very lively at this time of year. Let's go shopping at that time."

However, just before Christmas Eve, Lao Zhao, who hadn't been in touch for almost two months, unexpectedly sent them a Christmas invitation.

Shen Gun: "Eat?"

"Yes!" Lao Zhao sincerely invited the two of them on the phone, "On Christmas Eve, let's go to Tianmao's restaurant for dinner together. It's hard to find a seat, especially during the New Year's holidays. There is no room, so I still had the cheek to ask the partner, and finally booked a table!"

Old Zhao knew that Shen Gun didn't like the habit of gathering people, so he seldom invited him to dinner for no big deal. Usually, Lao Zhao treated guests after seeking Shen Gun's help, as a thank you, and got together by the way to connect with each other, so as not to sink Gon forgot about him.

Now they are suddenly invited to the festival...

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

Shen Gun said indifferently: "Tell me, what's going on."

Old Zhao chuckled: "It's a big festival, other people's families are in pairs, we three bachelors, barely get together to keep warm, and you don't need to pay, why don't you come for my treat?"

Shen Gun was unmoved: "Let's talk about the key points."

As soon as Shen Gun said this, Lao Zhao's mood fell instantly. After he was quiet for a few seconds, he said in a low and hoarse voice: "I... I am broken in love. She said that she has no plans to fall in love for the time being."

He sniffed as he spoke, looking deeply shocked.

Shen Gun turned on the speakerphone, and Xia Zha could hear these words.

Hearing that Lao Zhao's topic suddenly changed from eating to love, Xia Zha remembered that some time ago, Lao Zhao did say something similar to the person he was pursuing and was about to leave the order.

Thinking of this incident, for some reason, Shen Gun and Xia Zha also fell silent.

After a while, Shen Dang took the lead in snorting and laughing.

Old Zhao: "!"

This is so unkind!

Lao Zhao's blood surged immediately, and his tone was filled with grief and righteous indignation: "Old Shen, you don't understand love. Let me tell you, this is the first time I want to chase someone so much. When I was a student, I had a crush on the school belle, and I was just far away. Just look at it, pass it and pass it. But she is different. Do you know how nice she is?"

Speaking of this, Lao Zhao couldn't help but giggled innocently, like a big fool who just fell in love: "She is about the same age as me, she is a high school teacher, she is very kind-hearted and attractive, and the hair in her class is not full-grown You bastards, there are still people who confess to her! Also, every time I see her, she smiles very warmly, she is polite and caring..."

Xi Shi is in the eye of the beholder, even though the person he loves is only delicate in appearance, not a peerless beauty in the eyes of others, but Lao Zhao thinks she is good everywhere, and he can't stop boasting about her.

Finally, Lao Zhao had enough boasting, stopped, and fell into the sad atmosphere of broken love again.

Xia Zha slowed down his voice and asked him, "How did you know each other?"

Lao Zhao immediately fell into memories: "It was because their school was going to be rebuilt and expanded. I followed to discuss the project. I didn't find the office they mentioned. It happened that she came out of the class and helped me lead the way..."

In fact, it was a very simple and clichéd process of getting to know each other. The short-lived relationship made Lao Zhao's head overwhelmed, and he had the cheek to ask for contact information, but he didn't dare to be too enthusiastic. He just found some topics to chat with each other.Later, Lao Zhao went to discuss the project many times, met with the other party several times, and gradually became familiar with him.

With the excuse of gratitude, Lao Zhao invited her to dinner, but the high school teacher was busy, so he only managed to make appointments a few times.

After knowing that the other party was also single, Lao Zhao got along with her for a while, until a few days ago, he planned a confession dinner on Christmas Eve.

The old Zhao on the other end of the phone seemed to wipe his face: "You also know that I have gained a lot of weight after work, and I feel a little inferior when I think of chasing her, so I have controlled my diet and insisted on going to the gym in the past two months, and lost a whole lot of weight." Sixteen catties!"

"Then your confession was rejected." Shen Gun hit the nail on the head.

The old tough guy Zhao wept: "...Stop talking."

Before he made a request to have dinner together on Christmas Eve, the other party realized that he was exceeding his friend's intentions, and asked him out first, saying euphemistically that he had no plans for a relationship for the time being.

After that, in order not to be embarrassed for the two of them, she never went to Lao Zhao's appointment again.

Old Zhao: "I'm crying, how about you?"

Shen Gun: "..."

Xia Zha comforted him for a while.

"Hey..." Lao Zhao sighed deeply, "The original plan was to confess, but now the plan has died, but the restaurant is hard to decide. Since I asked someone to help me make a reservation, it would be a waste to cancel the subscription, so I thought about it." You probably haven’t been to that place for dinner, so I’m here to invite you.”

In the past, Shen Gun wasn't on these festivals, so he certainly didn't go to Tianmao's restaurant for dinner on Christmas Eve. Since it's a waste to cancel the appointment, it's better than cheap brothers.

"You two go, I'll pay the money." Old Zhao shook his head, "I'm afraid that if I go, I won't be able to resist paying homage to my love that died..."

Xia Zha: "But..."

Old Zhao interrupted him: "It's okay, you go. I haven't been in a good state recently. I wanted to go out to change my mood, so I applied to the company for a business trip to Yuzhou tomorrow, and I will come back after the project over there is over. I figured, I can't come back before New Year's Day. You can just go, treat it as my treat, you have helped me several times this year, this time I should treat you, I will change the restaurant's reserved mobile phone to Lao Shen's later."

It can be seen that the failure of the confession had a great impact on Lao Zhao.

After finishing speaking, Lao Zhao fell into a deeper melancholy, he remained silent, and after a while, the sound of a lighter rang from the phone.

Xia Zha has no experience in relationships, so he doesn't know how to comfort him, and he can't say how to smooth things over when he will meet someone better in the future.He didn't know how Lao Zhao got along with that person, and he couldn't predict the future. Comparing the future possibility with the person he liked in front of him was a denial of Lao Zhao's feelings. Ask more, just say: "It's your turn to ask."

Old Zhao laughed: "My brother Shen is right!"

"By the way, do you remember the class reunion I mentioned to you?" Old Zhao extinguished his cigarette and added, "They contacted me two days ago, saying that our high school class reunion will be after New Year's Day, and we will pick a weekend to get together Have a meal. I heard from the class leader that he successfully invited many people, and those who work in other places also said that they would drive here specially. Visually, half of the people came, and almost 20 people are considered a big party. The class asked me to invite you, and I will take it with you. When it’s time, I’ll contact you again when I set a specific time, and you decide whether to go or not to Lao Shen when the time comes.”

In their class, he was able to talk to Shen Gun.

Having said that, Lao Zhao felt that the possibility of Shen Dagon going was zero.

After all, being a loner is in line with his character in college that he could become a man of the hour just by his character and face.

Unexpectedly, Shen Gun did not refuse outright like before, but glanced at Xia Zha beside him, and asked, "Can I bring my family?"

Shen Gun didn't think much about it, but felt that since Xia Zha had curiosity and thirst for knowledge about everything in modern times, of course he was willing to take him to try anything, such as this class reunion.

But Lao Zhao thought too much at once. After all, classmates will bring family members, and everyone will default to bring a partner.

So he said in a daze: "Ah? What?"

Shen Gun repeated: "Family."

"...?" Old Zhao still didn't react, and said blankly, "It's ok, some people bring their daughter-in-law or husband after marriage."

Shen Gun: "Oh."

Old Zhao: "...?"

At this moment, Xia Zha suddenly said, "Do you want to take me there?"

Shen Gun: "Of course."

Old Zhao let out a breath: ... I was taken aback, I really thought Shen Gun could get out of the order.

Thinking of this, Lao Zhao complained: "Let me tell you, I always feel that those people in the class work so hard to hire people, mainly because they think that they are either a bit of a mess, or the conditions are good, so they want to talk to people." Show off and show off, by the way, ridicule those who are not doing well, to increase the sense of superiority. If it weren't for the fact that many of the people who came here worked in Jingcheng, and everyone came out of a major, except for those who changed careers, everyone else would look up and down in the same circle. To maintain harmony, I really don't want to go. However, there is no other way, it's all hypocrisy."

This may be a social person.

Lao Zhao, who had just experienced a broken relationship, once again felt the malice from life.

"Happiness belongs to others. I am a single dog. Working hard is the right way. As long as I work hard, I can let my boss live a better life."

After hearing this, Xia Zha gave him sincere encouragement: "Work hard together."

In order to let the boss live a better life.

Old Zhao hung up the phone with tears in his eyes.

The author has something to say: Boss Shen: Ah, why is he so cute.
