Chapter 28
Looking at himself from the shelf in the distance, seeing Zhong Jurui approaching at this moment, he couldn't help but smile first.
"Brother, do you want to buy yogurt? You can try it for free first. If it tastes good, you can buy some. If it doesn't taste good, I will go away. If you happen to be willing to spend a little money, then my performance can also improve a little bit. "Pei Xu smiled as he held up the tray for tasting.
Zhong Jurui put his hands in his pockets and said coldly: "I just heard that this one is too sweet, and I don't like too sweet ones, so I don't want to try it."
"Aren't you really going to try it? Although you don't like too sweet food, why don't you think about whether your future partner will like it? Should I get used to this sweet taste first?" Pei Xu grinned.
"The other half of the future? Where is it? Forgive my blindness, can you show me?" Zhong Jurui looked hopeful that Pei Xu would give him advice.
Pei Xu just pursed his lips and smiled.
Zhong Jurui continued to provoke the little salesman: "And I don't like milk too much."
Pei Xu kept a secret on his face.
"What's your expression? Just say what you want." After Zhong Jurui finished speaking, he deliberately bypassed the brands that Pei Xu was promoting and chose other brands of yogurt.
"I won't say it, it's sexual harassment if I say it." Pei Xu tilted his head and smiled.
"I haven't seen such a big storm, and I'm still afraid of your words?"
Pei Xu hooked his fingers, and when Zhong Jurui approached, he whispered in his ear: "Zhong Jurui, when you went to bed, you didn't show that you didn't like breastfeeding. I think you sucked quite vigorously."
Zhong Jurui's face turned red, and he took a few steps back in fright, flustered and almost knocked over the tray in Pei Xu's hand.
"You... why are you so shameless!" Zhong Jurui had a bear in his heart running wild, he turned around twice in a daze, and roared, "You are crazy!"
Pei Xu poked his waist and laughed: "I just said that what I said was sexual harassment, you just want to listen! I'm fine, why are you blushing like that?"
Zhong Jurui thought to himself, I blush because I want face.Pei Xu's lower limit is a bottomless black hole, if you take a step forward, the lower limit will also retreat three feet.
"I'll wait for you outside. Come quickly when you're done." Zhong Jurui said, just walked a few steps, then turned back, lowered his head and picked up two bottles of promotional packs sold by Pei Xu, without looking at Pei Xu, "Stop selling Your hue."
"This customer is so strange." Pei Xu said, "I'm just standing here to advertise, so I'm not selling my looks. I'm in your heart, can I be glamorous without doing anything?"
"Your uncle is full of charm. Hurry up and get out of get off work."
Pei Xu stopped him and said, "Why do you only buy two bottles? Are you so poor that you have no money to buy yogurt? Shouldn't you get some more? Oh my god, I have to spend twice as much energy on you as others, you This customer is quite ignorant. I knew it would be better to sell my lust to the aunts, at least the aunts will not let me get out."
Zhong Jurui silently grabbed another four bottles and held them in his arms, glared at him, and walked to the cashier.
Pei Xu finally got off work, carrying a gift box, and told Zhong Jurui that it was a gift.
"Sister Xue insists on wrapping." Pei Xu shrugged, "This kind of wrapping paper with pink hearts is not my style."
Sister Xue is a girl who likes life with a sense of ritual.I heard that Pei Xu and Zhong Jurui got in touch again, this time Zhong Jurui called Pei Xu on his birthday, his gossip spirit was burning, and he enthusiastically expressed that he would prepare a gift wrap for Pei Xu.
"What did you buy?"
Pei Xu's gift was packed in a gift box with strips of colored paper underneath, and the gift itself was wrapped in layers of colored paper, vaguely resembling a cup.
"The thermos cup." Pei Xu said, "If you have to pack it, pack it in the outer box, and don't open the inside."
"You wrap a thermos cup so tightly." Sister Xue closed the gift box again, took out a roll of gift wrapping paper and cut it out.
Pei Han happened to pass by, and said to Sister Xue: "Remind me, your dad just happened to pass by this time to see us, why don't you buy him a better quality thermos cup, I think the one he used often has several dents groove."
"Then buy it quickly, and give it to him when he comes to eat at home."
Pei Xu said: "Because this gift was left in Sister Xue's packaging, I went home and picked it up before going to work today." He begged for praise, "Is there no reward for running around like this? For example, you carried There are so many yogurts, all of which I like, are you going to share a bottle with me?"
Zhong Jurui said, "No plan."
Pei Xu pretended to turn around: "Then I'd better sell my lust to others."
Zhong Jurui said: "People with inflamed wisdom teeth and cavities are not worthy of eating sweets." He looked at Pei Xu's white face and said with disgust, "You look like a dog, like a ten-year-old child. Tooth decay, are you sorry?"
Pei Xu was choked for a moment, and said dejectedly: "I knew I wouldn't tell you about the dentist, you are such a sinister person, and you want to beat a snake seven inches if you take advantage of it."
Zhong Jurui glanced at Pei Xu, saw that Pei Xu didn't really regret what he had told him in detail, and smiled subtly.
This birthday party was actually very ordinary, except that Tang Cheng gave a cake and put it in the middle, eating and drinking during the party was no different from a normal party.Most of the birthdays when I grow up are like this, just to find a reason to eat together, and there is no warm birthday atmosphere.
Tang Cheng and the others gave practical gifts.Except for Pei Xu, only the gifts for two people were also carefully packed - because when they bought it, they said it was a birthday present, and the shop owner helped pack the box.
"Unpack it now!" Tang Cheng said, "If it doesn't fit, I still have it in my pocket, so I can return it and give you another one."
What Zhong Jurui held in his hand was a gift from Tang Cheng, with a fancy bow tie on the outside of the box.
"Let me explain first, the inside is the keycap."
Pei Xu was happily eating the buttercream on the cake, but when he heard that the presents were going to be opened in public, he suddenly sat up straight and said, "The gifts I gave are very shabby, you should keep mine and go home and open them, don't let me show my cowardice in public."
Du Ang said it's nothing, he just bought a potted plant and brought it here without any embarrassment, since courtesy is light and affection is heavy.
Zhong Jurui looked at him strangely and asked what he had given.
"A cup, uh, a smarter cup." Pei Xu pressed his hand on his gift box, hinting, "It can maintain a certain constant temperature, so that you... won't feel cold when you touch it, and you can twist it... A cup that is more suitable for one's own use..."
No one understood this description, and everyone was confused.
Tang Cheng tore open the wrapping paper and said, "So smart? Open it and have a look!"
Seeing that he was powerless to stop it, Pei Xu immediately said: "Zhong Jurui, I bought this because it would be difficult for you to live alone. No matter what you see later, don't scold me."
While talking, Tang Cheng had already opened the box, and there was a thermos cup lying quietly inside, with a smart indicator light on the side of the cup.
Du Ang said: "Isn't this the thermostat cup that reminds you to drink water? I wanted to buy one before, but I didn't buy it because I thought it was unnecessary to have hot water in the office at all times."
Pei Xu froze for a moment, and suddenly his eyelids trembled.He laughed dryly: "Haha, Zhong Jurui, you live alone, and you don't even have a kettle at home. I thought you might need one, so I bought one. Do you like it?" After he finished speaking, he quickly unlocked his phone and sent a WeChat message to the family : "I took the wrong gift box. The thermos that my brother bought is here! Don't give that gift to uncle!! I'll buy another one to take home at night."
"What's this button for?" Tang Cheng asked, a little confused.
Pei Xu glanced at him and said, "If you want to make instant coffee or Guozhen, you don't need to stir it with a spoon. Press this button, and the liquid in the cup will rotate automatically." Then he lowered his head and eagerly posted several times in the family group exclamation point.
"That's really freeing your hands." Tang Cheng sighed.
Zhong Jurui stared at Pei Xu for two seconds, knowing that this guy must cause trouble.
However, at the same moment, Pei Han was chatting with his father-in-law, and Sister Xue was serving Xiaodiao pear soup in the kitchen.No one looks at their phones.
"Xiaoxue, bring the cup for Dad." Pei Han suddenly remembered.
Sure enough, Sister Xue agreed to take out a box from the coffee table, the outer packaging was exactly the same as the little pink heart.
"What else do you pack for Dad?" Pei Han said.
"There's just a little wrapping paper left, I'll use it up at any time." Sister Xue said to his father, "Dad, take it apart and have a look."
Sister Xue's father really opened the package with great interest.Because unpacking was so trivial, Pei Hanqian waited to feel embarrassed, so he introduced the gift he bought.
"This cup is very easy to use. I bought it before and used it for a long time. It is intelligent and constant temperature, and it will not feel cold at all, and it will not be too hot. After all, it is uncomfortable if it is too hot. The most powerful But it can still be stirred inside, so don’t use your hands from now on.”
"So smart." The father-in-law was really happy. Seeing that the cups in the box were wrapped in layers of colored paper, he had to take them apart again.
Sister Xue was thinking that she didn't seem to add these circles of colored paper to the thermos.The cup has been stripped of all its outer packaging, revealing the true face of Mount Lu.
The father-in-law looked at the cup and unscrewed the lid—Pei Han was also taken aback, this cup was not the one he bought—a manual fell out of it.
Smart plane/cup.Constant temperature setting, the feeling of real human body temperature.Ultra-sensitive material, absolutely delicate skin touch.Nine shallow and one deep vibrations make you scream.
Sister Xue said embarrassingly: "I'll go to see the soup again, I seem to have forgotten to turn off the fire just now."
Her father looked at Pei Han like a knife scraping.
Pei Han: "Dad..."
"Don't call me dad, what are you doing? Xiaoxue's mother has been anxious and can't hold her grandson, and she can't sleep well at home. It turns out that you have wasted your energy on this thing. I bought it before and used it for a long time. Time? You... you are so mad at us old couple. "
Pei Han looked at his father-in-law's face with trepidation, and quickly explained that there must be a mistake, and he was about to put the things away while talking.
The father-in-law calmed down, glanced at Xiaoxue who was still hiding in the kitchen, and asked in a low voice, "Don't put it away, I will take it away later. Have you used it? Is it really good?"
Pei Han: "I'm not, I haven't."
"I also came from a young age. I understand that it's not cheating with the cup." The father-in-law showed an expression that everyone was a man, and looked at the cup again, "It's still interesting."
Pei Han: "..."
——It also suddenly had a deeper understanding of the inferiority of men.
Zhong Jurui and the others asked Pei Xu what happened after they left.Pei Xu summed up the matter simply.
Zhong Jurui said, "Why?"
"Why? It's because Sister Xue used the exact same wrapping paper. I didn't pay attention when I took it, and I took it wrong. It's over, Pei Han will lose face, and he might beat me up."
"I said why did you send me that thing."
The two of them walked towards the subway station, the branches above their heads were twined with colorful lights in the shape of stars, twinkling along the way.
Zhong Jurui said: "That is something that can easily lead to strange associations."
Pei Xu said "Oh": "Because I'm flirting with you. Can't you see that?"
—Too frank.To be honest, Zhong Jurui didn't know how to get back.
He wanted to reach out and brush Pei Xu's hair, but in the end he put his hand back in his pocket and said, "Then you will come to serve yourself. Buy a small toy to fool who?"
Pei Xu said righteously: "I'm not such a casual person, we have no status."
"When will you leave?" Zhong Jurui changed the subject.
Pei Xu began to say that he had almost collected evidence. It is a certain fact that this supermarket chain repeatedly labels fresh meat products that have passed the expiration date and put them on the shelves. His colleagues, those people were very kind to him. Once he missed his meal while moving goods, an uncle even left him a lunch box. When the report comes out, it may have an impact on these people.
"I hope it won't have any major impact." Pei Xu said, "Scraping the bone to heal the wound always involves accidentally digging out some good meat. There is no way to do it, right?"
Zhong Jurui listened quietly, and comforted him: "It shouldn't matter to them, just change jobs in a supermarket."
"If you have ever been a low-level worker, you know that these things are not taken for granted." Pei Xu said, "The difference between people is greater than the difference between people and animals."
They walked and chatted, as if as long as they could keep walking, they could talk forever.
The author has something to say: Sand Sculpture Transition Chapter, I wish you all a happy Chinese New Year!
☆、Chapter 62
A new window was opened in the staff canteen this week. The chef specializes in Northwest cuisine. The big plate chicken set meal is very popular because it has a lot of meat and is affordable, so there are many people queuing up.
Zhong Jurui and several colleagues lined up at the tail of the line, each with their heads down, playing with their mobile phones.
A new colleague from the group, nicknamed Pete, stood between Du Ang and Zhong Jurui, looked left and right in the line, patted Du Ang on the shoulder and said, "Brother Du, I leave the meal card to you, you can bring it for me." A large plate of chicken noodles, I went to the bathroom, my stomach is really uncomfortable."
Du Ang took the card, pointed to a closet-type air conditioner nearby, and said that they would find a place there later, and asked Pete to go directly to them after going to the toilet.After Pete walked away, Du Ang said belatedly, "Eh? Do you want the big plate chicken spicy?"
Zhong Jurui took a step forward towards the team, stared at the phone screen, and said, "It's not spicy."
Du Ang turned his head, a little surprised: "How do you know?"
"Isn't his name Pete?" Zhong Jurui's expression remained unchanged, and he glanced at Du Ang, "Haven't you heard of the non-spicy Pete in Mr. and Mrs. Smith?"
Du Ang looked at Zhong Jurui several times in horror, and was frightened by this serious joke.Fuck, why is this dead face so friendly recently?
Recalling the group building last week, a group of more than a dozen of them went to eat near the company. Who knew that the food was served very slowly. The boss called the waiter and asked why the pot of tea was not served for half an hour.Zhong Jurui was sitting on the right hand side of the boss, seeing the waiter girl bowing and apologizing non-stop, looking pitiful like a little chick, and comfortingly said: "Don't apologize, our leader is very angry. You can't be hungry, you go to the kitchen to urge, and it will be fine when the food is served."
At that time, Du Ang felt the corners of his mouth twitching, and he lingered in his heart: the homophonic melody requires deductions.
When it was their turn to find a place to sit down after buying a meal, Du Ang couldn't help but ask Zhong Jurui what happened to him recently. The subtext was that Zhong Jurui's language expression was a little lively recently, which was not his old style.
"No big deal." Zhong Jurui thought about it and said, "Except that I failed my second subject, and I have to take leave next month to retake the exam, the opposite door has recently been renovated, and I can't sleep every morning with electric drills. Yesterday, my hands slipped and my phone screen fell. Broken, haven't had time to fix it...other than that, it's nothing serious."
Pete just came back to eat, and heard the words: "Have you been retrograde recently? My girlfriend is in the same sign as you, and Mercury has been retrograde for the past two days. I lost my ID card last week and my Mac this week, oh , I have to find time to buy it for her later.”
Zhong Jurui asked: "I lost my Mac too? Is it Air or Pro?"
Both Duang and Pete were silent.
Du Ang said: "People who don't have a girlfriend are so pitiful. They don't even know about this. Brother, let me give you a popular science. Mac is lipstick, and this Mac is not that MacBook. This is an important knowledge point."
Zhong Jurui raised his eyebrows and ate quietly—as far as he knows, although Pei Xu is very smug, he smears his face every day to keep his collagen delicate and tender, but his hobbies are still limited to skin care , does not intend to enter the field of make-up, become a coquettish boy, he does not need to master knowledge points such as lipstick.But the knowledge he has mastered obviously cannot please Pei Xu, especially when he tries to tell Pei Xu that some products are paying IQ tax, Pei Xu will stare at him hard, with a resolute expression on his face, trying to be fooled.
Thinking of Pei Xu, I can't help thinking that this person is very busy recently, and I don't know where to go to investigate medical supplies. It has been a week or two since Pei Xu told him that he was digging through the garbage dump, and he has no time to chat—not all Pei Xu is very busy. Under the guidance of Chen Jiarui's strategic consulting team, Zhong Jurui's team has made new adjustments. He has transferred from his original business to a new project. The project is called Gray. It has officially started for a week. The meeting is mixed with small meetings, and the feet are not on the ground.
Pei Xu's hair was unkempt, and against the backdrop of his fair skin, the blue color of the stubble appeared even more.Wearing a dirty down jacket, he stood in the small bathroom of the moving train washing his face.Coming out of the bathroom, looking at the fast-moving scenery outside the bullet train, my eyes are filled with the bleakness of winter.A little addicted to smoking, I looked up and saw the no-smoking sign in the carriage, sighed, but still didn't take out the cigarette case.
Not long after resigning from the supermarket last month, Pei Xu published a report on hygiene issues in the fresh food chain. He was contacting informants at home to see if there was anything worth tracking down. A supermarket tally clerk who had only met twice did not know. How to find his phone and call him.
"Are you a reporter?" the eldest sister asked, "They all said that you were a reporter who came undercover."
Pei Xu was a little embarrassed, wondering if the elder sister came to question her because she was involved in her work, and was about to interrupt her to deny it, but the elder sister said, "Can you help me? My nephew has been brainwashed by rumors, can you please?" Bring a TV station to expose them?"
Pei Xu had no choice but to say that he had nothing to do with the TV station. If the eldest sister wanted to find someone from the TV station, he knew someone and could help introduce them, but he couldn't guarantee whether they would go or not.
The eldest sister refused, saying that she couldn't trust others, knowing that Pei Xu was very good, and writing an article, the chain supermarkets would be closed for rectification, so she insisted on going: "Even if you can't smash a den of thieves, you persuade my nephew to come out, you are a big reporter , he will listen to what you say! Just treat it as a good deed, okay?"
Pei Xu had no choice but to agree to make this trip, and went to a nearby county-level city with the intention of persuading a young man who was not clear about his way.
The eldest sister spoke alarmistly, insisting that her nephew was brainwashed and controlled by the MLM organization. When Pei Xu went to take a look, it was not always the case.There are many reports about MLM organizations in the society, telling how they were deceived, how their personal freedom was controlled, and how to find ways to escape. There are also many victims. Ordinary people also have a superficial understanding of MLM. Pei Xu is well prepared for this. , I found that it was not as serious as the eldest sister said.Her nephew is working as a so-called "agent", and his personal freedom has not been controlled. Although a health care product he sells is very suspicious, and the direct sales model seems to be the same as pyramid schemes, but he brought the staff of the industrial and commercial department to Check it out, it's all legal.There is also a license, the things you buy are also within the scope of business, and the manufacturers are also regular manufacturers, so there is no room for law enforcement-all business activities are within the rules.
Pei Xu thought to himself, sure enough, he is afraid that liars also understand the law. After all, a liar who understands the law cannot be called a liar, and his business is legal.This trip is doomed to return in vain.
The nephew was very dissatisfied with his aunt bringing the reporter, so he became very angry, and gave Pei Xu cigarettes to make up for his smile, saying that it was a family conflict, and his aunt was jealous of his grandparents investing money in him, it was all a family matter, Not worth journalists to cover.
The eldest sister really scolded: "Your family brought over my mother's coffin, are you wicked or not? You even lied to your own family! You are relying on me and will not ignore my parents in the future."
After a while, the eldest sister's brother also came, and the family stood in the store and started arguing.
Pei Xu finally understood, it turned out that it was related to the money of the previous generation, and thought, well, it was used as a gun.It is difficult for an upright official to decide on housework, and he has no friendship with his elder sister, let alone take care of other people's family affairs. When the war of words between the two sides is about to subside, he pretends to be a good person and persuades his elder sister to leave.
With tears in her eyes, the eldest sister wiped her eyes with her sleeve as she walked, and asked Pei Xu, "Just tell me if this is a pyramid scheme! Pull one by one, develop offline, and only cheat old people's money. How is this not a pyramid scheme?"
Pei Xu had no choice but to say yes, but even if it was, it was still legal.
"Then you go and see what they sell, they say they can cure all diseases, how is that possible!" said the elder sister, "I see that the pills are all made of starch, and they have no effect. That electric chair can probably kill people. "
The truth is this, but there is no evidence for the propaganda of curing all diseases, and Pei Xu also knows that it is impossible for such a cunning businessman to say such relentless words.As for the fact that it doesn’t work, there are plenty of health supplements that are useless. They won’t kill you, but they can be used as a placebo.Pei Xu was also helpless.
He returned to the hotel, ready to take a nap and go home.The guest house in this small place is not ventilated, and there is a damp musty smell. Pei Xu was so stimulated by the smell that he couldn't fall asleep, so he turned on the computer and looked casually.The business license he saw during the day flashed through his mind, and he searched along the name, after searching, he sat up.
He saw an extremely familiar name in the list of shareholders.Tao Yibo.
Some names are fleeting, and some names are unforgettable.Some names are like a bug, you don't usually think of it, but when you see it, it's like being stung.Tao Yibo is such a name.The first time Pei Xu saw this name was from Pei Han's last report before he changed career seven or eight years ago.
What Pei Han reported back then was that a certain health care product contained carcinogens, and Tao Yibo was the second in command of the health care product company, and he resigned after the public opinion broke out.
Pei Xu hadn't remembered this person for a long time, but when he saw this name by chance today, his expression was very solemn.
Pei Xu’s professional senior, Zhong Nanping, once told him that China’s political structure determines the media structure, and journalists who want to use their swords to fight for justice are like fighting a tiger alone with a needle. At most, it will hurt the hearts of innocent people, and it is impossible for the tiger to bleed a drop of blood if you let yourself be buried in the tiger's mouth.As for the lice on the tiger's head, as long as the tiger is not dead, it will always jump up and down.
Tao Yibo, the louse, was still jumping up and down.And if you take a closer look, Tao Yibo now seems to be a hero again. He not only works for a pharmaceutical company, but has returned to his old business in the past two years and started making health care products again.
The hot air from the air conditioner was blowing on Pei Xu's face, Pei Xu only felt his forehead was hot, but his body was still cold under the blanket.
There was an inexplicable intuition that made him decide to stay and investigate again.
Pei Xu went back to the office.
His colleague Sang Xiaojun is currently doing a topic of molestation/children, lurking in various groups, pretending to be a fellow, the psychological pressure is so great that he collapses, he doesn't want to go home, and spends every day in the office. At first glance, he The Jiwotou you got was on par with Pei Xu who was on a business trip for a few days.
Pei Xu said, "Do you have anything to eat?"
Sang Xiaojun howled angrily: "No! I think I'm done. When a normal person says something, my first reaction is whether this is a code word. This topic selection is too shocking. I want to report a work-related injury."
Pei Xu patted him on the back, carrying his bag into Zhong Nanping's office.
The so-called "investigation" is partly based on self-discovery, and partly based on clichés. If people want to let their guard down, it will be difficult to maintain a glamorous appearance. Pei Xu has paid a lot for the investigation, and he didn't have time to take a shower in order to drive the car back.
Zhong Nanping glanced at him and said, "Which cesspit did you crawl from? Why does it smell bad?"
"Do you think I can stand myself? I rummaged through the trash all day yesterday." Pei Xu closed the door and had a long talk with Zhong Nanping. When he walked out of the office, he felt dizzy and had hypoglycemia.
He bought two chocolates and was so sweet that he coughed until he finally calmed down. He called Zhong Jurui by leaning on the electric pole by the side of the road—in fact, he was not sure whether Zhong Jurui would answer, after all, it was the evening of a weekday .Ten seconds later, a familiar "Hello" sounded from the phone.
Pei Xu laughed foolishly: "Zhong Jurui, I'm both stinky and sweet!"
Zhong Jurui said, "I miss you too."
☆、Chapter 63
Life after work is very different from life in school.When I was a student, I stared out the window in a daze, walked slowly on the side of the road, and followed the planes flying overhead. When I started working, these meaningless blank hours became memories.
Zhong Jurui couldn't remember what he was doing when he was free.
At that time, I didn't seem to have much pocket money, and I didn't have the opportunity to eat, drink and have fun everywhere. It would be an exaggeration to say that I was studying hard against the clock - no matter how strong my self-control is, I was still a young man.In retrospect, the most frequent scene is that he and Pei Xu nest in the activity room of the newspaper office, and they don't know what they did.
At that time, there was no money and no trivial matters, and the days flowed like water, so why didn't I feel bored?Zhong Jurui pondered.
He tried to ask Pei Xu out to play on Saturdays, but every time he came out, he went to restaurants, which seemed to be a very monotonous entertainment life. The dating strategies he found on the Internet were all designed to please girls. Zhong Jurui himself has no interest in Paradise, nor does he think Pei Xu would like it.
The only woman among colleagues heard him say that he didn't know what to do after get off work, and suggested him to listen to concerts and the like, saying that the burning scene might make an old iron tree like Zhong Jurui bloom.
Zhong Jurui has never cared about the entertainment industry, and he doesn't know any new faces on TV in recent years, and the singers he often listens to in the playlist are the ones he was popular in middle and high school.Zhong Jurui, who knew nothing about popular idols, successfully aroused the anger of his sister, who shouted: "You don't even know XX? The laptop advertisement he endorsed is printed on the bus platform downstairs. Have you never noticed?"
Zhong Jurui thought about it, and came to the conclusion that the configuration of the new model of the notebook is too poor, it is not as good as chicken ribs, it is simply chicken shit, and people who can't think of how much money and hot hands will buy it. As for the spokesperson next to the computer, He didn't look at it.
Du Ang saw that his sister was very excited, and asked, "Are you his fan?"
The elder sister laughed and said not exactly, she is at most a CP fan.
Married straight man Du Ang asked: "CP? What do you mean?"
Zhong Jurui is confident in grasping this knowledge point. The CP command in Linux is used to copy files or directories. He smiled slightly and gave his answer.Du Ang patted Zhong Jurui on the shoulder and said: Brother, I think you are right.
My sister was silent for a while, and said: "I can't refute it. But after you walk out of this office, CP has another meaning. My God, I am also an Internet worker. I don't leave my computer for 16 hours a day. You usually What are you looking at online?"
Du Ang said, "What does it mean to walk out of the office?"
"CP is the vast crowd. These two people must be together. No one can separate them. They are a couple. Do you understand?"
After much deliberation, Zhong Jurui didn't feel that who must be with whom, insisted that he and Pei Xu must be together, but it was impossible for him to say such a thing in front of his colleagues, except for him and Pei Xu, The only thing he felt that the two had to stay together was Legend of Phoenix. After the female singer finished singing, if there was no male singer to inject her soul, it would always feel incomplete and uncomfortable.
Du Ang also has no opinion on weekend entertainment. He has been busy sending his children to programming interest classes recently. In order not to let his son lose at the starting line, he had to reluctantly let his son be bald and take the lead.
Therefore, Zhong Jurui finally gave up literary and artistic activities.
——It is said that play items are becoming more and more fixed, which is a sign of getting old.
Zhong Jurui recalled the only few people he could call friends, and found that married people were in their own way, returning to the family on weekends, not fooling around with single people, and unmarried people were either workaholics like Zhong Jurui, only keen to watch The balance of the account has risen, and it is rare to make an appointment on weekends. They are all to inquire about the recent good financial products and commercial insurance, or Tang Cheng's kind, living among thousands of flowers, like a flower farmer.Shining brightly and standing out from the crowd is Chen Jiarui.As we grow older, everyone gradually accepts the inclinations of life, and is honestly pressed and rubbed on the ground. Only Chen Jiarui, who is passionate about overthrowing the little bitch of life, has endless tricks in his circle of friends. In his impression, he used to I just filled my bathtub two days ago, and planted Chinese cabbage in it, just to stew cabbage pork, oh, it can also be said to be stewed cabbage Hongxia-but this person has stopped a lot recently.
Zhong Jurui clicked on Chen Jiarui's circle of friends to learn some ideas. I am very grateful that in this society where people can only view it for 3 days, there are still people who don't mind others viewing their lives.
I turned to Chen Jiarui's circle of friends just posted today, and the accompanying picture is a row of knives hanging in the vegetable market.
"Sajia wants ten catties of lean meat. Cut it into scorpions. Don't see any fat on it. It's used for wrapping wontons in the house."
"Another ten catties, they are all fat. Don't see some fine ones on them, but also cut them into sausages. They are used for fried meatballs in the house."
Zhong Jurui himself doesn't like to post on Moments, so he doesn't like to watch Moments. He often misses some news. Only after seeing this will he react. It turns out that sister Hongxia died. She died young and deservedly. Zhong Jurui is quite sorry .Just turning to the one where Hongxia was sent to the small slaughtering workshop, Chen Jiarui seemed to have eyes and knew that Zhong Jurui was browsing his circle of friends. After a long absence, he sent a message saying that he found a store in the vegetable market and planned to fill some The sausage, when you have time, send it to Zhong Jurui for a taste, and then ask Zhong Jurui what flavor he likes, and whether he wants to add chili noodles if he is fat or thin.
——Chen Jiarui, who works for Party B, has also continued his good service attitude in his life.
Zhong Jurui let out a long sigh, it was very embarrassing for him to toss like Chen Jiarui, and finally resigned to his fate - he was really not suitable for any activities other than work.
Fortunately, Pei Xu didn't care what he was playing with when he was with him.
Pei Xu lives in a very old community.
In the community built in the 80s, the lighting was poor and the corridors were dim. People on the first floor were afraid that their electric cars would be stolen, so they parked their cars in. The already narrow aisles became even narrower.Pei Xu wondered how the burly elder brother who lived upstairs held his breath every time he went up to the second floor.
He took Zhong Jurui upstairs and reminded him: "Don't touch the railing, there is a smoke exhaust in the corridor, and the railing is stained with oily smoke, which is very sticky to your hands."
He wouldn't reach out to touch Zhong Jurui even if he didn't say anything, the voice-activated light was on, and the railing was suspiciously black and yellow.
Pei Xu led the way nonchalantly, and took out the key to open the door—the door was also very broken, and he failed to open it after twisting two keys.
"The door is broken, and sometimes it can be opened without a key. The lock is also troublesome. The one that opens the lock can't be replaced, and the door has to be replaced. The landlord promised to find someone to replace the door, but he hasn't come yet." Pei Xu explained.
"Why don't you stay at home?" Zhong Jurui came in to change his shoes and asked.
"I've been working as a light bulb for many years, and I have to give my brother some space for the two of us. Otherwise, he would take care of me in the first half of his life and his own children in the second half of his life. He would have no free time, which is too pitiful." It's gone." Pei Xu grinned.
Zhong Jurui looked around, there was no furniture, but the mess was visible to the naked eye, Pei Xu really didn't like to clean it up.He remembered that he had rented a small single room before, and Pei Xu had lived with him, and he had spent his time laying carpets, changing curtains and buying beanbag sofas, with small capitalism written all over his face, and now he didn't seem to care about those vain things up.
"I've been really busy lately." Pei Xu opened an iced Coke and was caught off guard by the iced drink, his gums ached.
Zhong Jurui adjusted his glasses, and while listening to Pei Xu's words, he couldn't help but began to tidy up the clothes piled up on the sofa like a hill.
Pei Xu's accidental discovery last time really pointed to a big discovery: he suspected that Tao Yibo was making and selling counterfeit medicines in an organized way.This is another version of Lu Yong's case, but this time, the protagonist is not the medicine god who saves all living beings, but the profit-seeking devil.Patients with advanced cancer need to take targeted drugs, but the imported targeted drugs are astronomical for some ordinary families, and some people will choose overseas generic drugs. Hong Kong is undoubtedly the easiest paradise to purchase.However, if it is a normal generic drug purchasing agent, at least it will not kill the patient, Pei Xuhuai
"Brother, do you want to buy yogurt? You can try it for free first. If it tastes good, you can buy some. If it doesn't taste good, I will go away. If you happen to be willing to spend a little money, then my performance can also improve a little bit. "Pei Xu smiled as he held up the tray for tasting.
Zhong Jurui put his hands in his pockets and said coldly: "I just heard that this one is too sweet, and I don't like too sweet ones, so I don't want to try it."
"Aren't you really going to try it? Although you don't like too sweet food, why don't you think about whether your future partner will like it? Should I get used to this sweet taste first?" Pei Xu grinned.
"The other half of the future? Where is it? Forgive my blindness, can you show me?" Zhong Jurui looked hopeful that Pei Xu would give him advice.
Pei Xu just pursed his lips and smiled.
Zhong Jurui continued to provoke the little salesman: "And I don't like milk too much."
Pei Xu kept a secret on his face.
"What's your expression? Just say what you want." After Zhong Jurui finished speaking, he deliberately bypassed the brands that Pei Xu was promoting and chose other brands of yogurt.
"I won't say it, it's sexual harassment if I say it." Pei Xu tilted his head and smiled.
"I haven't seen such a big storm, and I'm still afraid of your words?"
Pei Xu hooked his fingers, and when Zhong Jurui approached, he whispered in his ear: "Zhong Jurui, when you went to bed, you didn't show that you didn't like breastfeeding. I think you sucked quite vigorously."
Zhong Jurui's face turned red, and he took a few steps back in fright, flustered and almost knocked over the tray in Pei Xu's hand.
"You... why are you so shameless!" Zhong Jurui had a bear in his heart running wild, he turned around twice in a daze, and roared, "You are crazy!"
Pei Xu poked his waist and laughed: "I just said that what I said was sexual harassment, you just want to listen! I'm fine, why are you blushing like that?"
Zhong Jurui thought to himself, I blush because I want face.Pei Xu's lower limit is a bottomless black hole, if you take a step forward, the lower limit will also retreat three feet.
"I'll wait for you outside. Come quickly when you're done." Zhong Jurui said, just walked a few steps, then turned back, lowered his head and picked up two bottles of promotional packs sold by Pei Xu, without looking at Pei Xu, "Stop selling Your hue."
"This customer is so strange." Pei Xu said, "I'm just standing here to advertise, so I'm not selling my looks. I'm in your heart, can I be glamorous without doing anything?"
"Your uncle is full of charm. Hurry up and get out of get off work."
Pei Xu stopped him and said, "Why do you only buy two bottles? Are you so poor that you have no money to buy yogurt? Shouldn't you get some more? Oh my god, I have to spend twice as much energy on you as others, you This customer is quite ignorant. I knew it would be better to sell my lust to the aunts, at least the aunts will not let me get out."
Zhong Jurui silently grabbed another four bottles and held them in his arms, glared at him, and walked to the cashier.
Pei Xu finally got off work, carrying a gift box, and told Zhong Jurui that it was a gift.
"Sister Xue insists on wrapping." Pei Xu shrugged, "This kind of wrapping paper with pink hearts is not my style."
Sister Xue is a girl who likes life with a sense of ritual.I heard that Pei Xu and Zhong Jurui got in touch again, this time Zhong Jurui called Pei Xu on his birthday, his gossip spirit was burning, and he enthusiastically expressed that he would prepare a gift wrap for Pei Xu.
"What did you buy?"
Pei Xu's gift was packed in a gift box with strips of colored paper underneath, and the gift itself was wrapped in layers of colored paper, vaguely resembling a cup.
"The thermos cup." Pei Xu said, "If you have to pack it, pack it in the outer box, and don't open the inside."
"You wrap a thermos cup so tightly." Sister Xue closed the gift box again, took out a roll of gift wrapping paper and cut it out.
Pei Han happened to pass by, and said to Sister Xue: "Remind me, your dad just happened to pass by this time to see us, why don't you buy him a better quality thermos cup, I think the one he used often has several dents groove."
"Then buy it quickly, and give it to him when he comes to eat at home."
Pei Xu said: "Because this gift was left in Sister Xue's packaging, I went home and picked it up before going to work today." He begged for praise, "Is there no reward for running around like this? For example, you carried There are so many yogurts, all of which I like, are you going to share a bottle with me?"
Zhong Jurui said, "No plan."
Pei Xu pretended to turn around: "Then I'd better sell my lust to others."
Zhong Jurui said: "People with inflamed wisdom teeth and cavities are not worthy of eating sweets." He looked at Pei Xu's white face and said with disgust, "You look like a dog, like a ten-year-old child. Tooth decay, are you sorry?"
Pei Xu was choked for a moment, and said dejectedly: "I knew I wouldn't tell you about the dentist, you are such a sinister person, and you want to beat a snake seven inches if you take advantage of it."
Zhong Jurui glanced at Pei Xu, saw that Pei Xu didn't really regret what he had told him in detail, and smiled subtly.
This birthday party was actually very ordinary, except that Tang Cheng gave a cake and put it in the middle, eating and drinking during the party was no different from a normal party.Most of the birthdays when I grow up are like this, just to find a reason to eat together, and there is no warm birthday atmosphere.
Tang Cheng and the others gave practical gifts.Except for Pei Xu, only the gifts for two people were also carefully packed - because when they bought it, they said it was a birthday present, and the shop owner helped pack the box.
"Unpack it now!" Tang Cheng said, "If it doesn't fit, I still have it in my pocket, so I can return it and give you another one."
What Zhong Jurui held in his hand was a gift from Tang Cheng, with a fancy bow tie on the outside of the box.
"Let me explain first, the inside is the keycap."
Pei Xu was happily eating the buttercream on the cake, but when he heard that the presents were going to be opened in public, he suddenly sat up straight and said, "The gifts I gave are very shabby, you should keep mine and go home and open them, don't let me show my cowardice in public."
Du Ang said it's nothing, he just bought a potted plant and brought it here without any embarrassment, since courtesy is light and affection is heavy.
Zhong Jurui looked at him strangely and asked what he had given.
"A cup, uh, a smarter cup." Pei Xu pressed his hand on his gift box, hinting, "It can maintain a certain constant temperature, so that you... won't feel cold when you touch it, and you can twist it... A cup that is more suitable for one's own use..."
No one understood this description, and everyone was confused.
Tang Cheng tore open the wrapping paper and said, "So smart? Open it and have a look!"
Seeing that he was powerless to stop it, Pei Xu immediately said: "Zhong Jurui, I bought this because it would be difficult for you to live alone. No matter what you see later, don't scold me."
While talking, Tang Cheng had already opened the box, and there was a thermos cup lying quietly inside, with a smart indicator light on the side of the cup.
Du Ang said: "Isn't this the thermostat cup that reminds you to drink water? I wanted to buy one before, but I didn't buy it because I thought it was unnecessary to have hot water in the office at all times."
Pei Xu froze for a moment, and suddenly his eyelids trembled.He laughed dryly: "Haha, Zhong Jurui, you live alone, and you don't even have a kettle at home. I thought you might need one, so I bought one. Do you like it?" After he finished speaking, he quickly unlocked his phone and sent a WeChat message to the family : "I took the wrong gift box. The thermos that my brother bought is here! Don't give that gift to uncle!! I'll buy another one to take home at night."
"What's this button for?" Tang Cheng asked, a little confused.
Pei Xu glanced at him and said, "If you want to make instant coffee or Guozhen, you don't need to stir it with a spoon. Press this button, and the liquid in the cup will rotate automatically." Then he lowered his head and eagerly posted several times in the family group exclamation point.
"That's really freeing your hands." Tang Cheng sighed.
Zhong Jurui stared at Pei Xu for two seconds, knowing that this guy must cause trouble.
However, at the same moment, Pei Han was chatting with his father-in-law, and Sister Xue was serving Xiaodiao pear soup in the kitchen.No one looks at their phones.
"Xiaoxue, bring the cup for Dad." Pei Han suddenly remembered.
Sure enough, Sister Xue agreed to take out a box from the coffee table, the outer packaging was exactly the same as the little pink heart.
"What else do you pack for Dad?" Pei Han said.
"There's just a little wrapping paper left, I'll use it up at any time." Sister Xue said to his father, "Dad, take it apart and have a look."
Sister Xue's father really opened the package with great interest.Because unpacking was so trivial, Pei Hanqian waited to feel embarrassed, so he introduced the gift he bought.
"This cup is very easy to use. I bought it before and used it for a long time. It is intelligent and constant temperature, and it will not feel cold at all, and it will not be too hot. After all, it is uncomfortable if it is too hot. The most powerful But it can still be stirred inside, so don’t use your hands from now on.”
"So smart." The father-in-law was really happy. Seeing that the cups in the box were wrapped in layers of colored paper, he had to take them apart again.
Sister Xue was thinking that she didn't seem to add these circles of colored paper to the thermos.The cup has been stripped of all its outer packaging, revealing the true face of Mount Lu.
The father-in-law looked at the cup and unscrewed the lid—Pei Han was also taken aback, this cup was not the one he bought—a manual fell out of it.
Smart plane/cup.Constant temperature setting, the feeling of real human body temperature.Ultra-sensitive material, absolutely delicate skin touch.Nine shallow and one deep vibrations make you scream.
Sister Xue said embarrassingly: "I'll go to see the soup again, I seem to have forgotten to turn off the fire just now."
Her father looked at Pei Han like a knife scraping.
Pei Han: "Dad..."
"Don't call me dad, what are you doing? Xiaoxue's mother has been anxious and can't hold her grandson, and she can't sleep well at home. It turns out that you have wasted your energy on this thing. I bought it before and used it for a long time. Time? You... you are so mad at us old couple. "
Pei Han looked at his father-in-law's face with trepidation, and quickly explained that there must be a mistake, and he was about to put the things away while talking.
The father-in-law calmed down, glanced at Xiaoxue who was still hiding in the kitchen, and asked in a low voice, "Don't put it away, I will take it away later. Have you used it? Is it really good?"
Pei Han: "I'm not, I haven't."
"I also came from a young age. I understand that it's not cheating with the cup." The father-in-law showed an expression that everyone was a man, and looked at the cup again, "It's still interesting."
Pei Han: "..."
——It also suddenly had a deeper understanding of the inferiority of men.
Zhong Jurui and the others asked Pei Xu what happened after they left.Pei Xu summed up the matter simply.
Zhong Jurui said, "Why?"
"Why? It's because Sister Xue used the exact same wrapping paper. I didn't pay attention when I took it, and I took it wrong. It's over, Pei Han will lose face, and he might beat me up."
"I said why did you send me that thing."
The two of them walked towards the subway station, the branches above their heads were twined with colorful lights in the shape of stars, twinkling along the way.
Zhong Jurui said: "That is something that can easily lead to strange associations."
Pei Xu said "Oh": "Because I'm flirting with you. Can't you see that?"
—Too frank.To be honest, Zhong Jurui didn't know how to get back.
He wanted to reach out and brush Pei Xu's hair, but in the end he put his hand back in his pocket and said, "Then you will come to serve yourself. Buy a small toy to fool who?"
Pei Xu said righteously: "I'm not such a casual person, we have no status."
"When will you leave?" Zhong Jurui changed the subject.
Pei Xu began to say that he had almost collected evidence. It is a certain fact that this supermarket chain repeatedly labels fresh meat products that have passed the expiration date and put them on the shelves. His colleagues, those people were very kind to him. Once he missed his meal while moving goods, an uncle even left him a lunch box. When the report comes out, it may have an impact on these people.
"I hope it won't have any major impact." Pei Xu said, "Scraping the bone to heal the wound always involves accidentally digging out some good meat. There is no way to do it, right?"
Zhong Jurui listened quietly, and comforted him: "It shouldn't matter to them, just change jobs in a supermarket."
"If you have ever been a low-level worker, you know that these things are not taken for granted." Pei Xu said, "The difference between people is greater than the difference between people and animals."
They walked and chatted, as if as long as they could keep walking, they could talk forever.
The author has something to say: Sand Sculpture Transition Chapter, I wish you all a happy Chinese New Year!
☆、Chapter 62
A new window was opened in the staff canteen this week. The chef specializes in Northwest cuisine. The big plate chicken set meal is very popular because it has a lot of meat and is affordable, so there are many people queuing up.
Zhong Jurui and several colleagues lined up at the tail of the line, each with their heads down, playing with their mobile phones.
A new colleague from the group, nicknamed Pete, stood between Du Ang and Zhong Jurui, looked left and right in the line, patted Du Ang on the shoulder and said, "Brother Du, I leave the meal card to you, you can bring it for me." A large plate of chicken noodles, I went to the bathroom, my stomach is really uncomfortable."
Du Ang took the card, pointed to a closet-type air conditioner nearby, and said that they would find a place there later, and asked Pete to go directly to them after going to the toilet.After Pete walked away, Du Ang said belatedly, "Eh? Do you want the big plate chicken spicy?"
Zhong Jurui took a step forward towards the team, stared at the phone screen, and said, "It's not spicy."
Du Ang turned his head, a little surprised: "How do you know?"
"Isn't his name Pete?" Zhong Jurui's expression remained unchanged, and he glanced at Du Ang, "Haven't you heard of the non-spicy Pete in Mr. and Mrs. Smith?"
Du Ang looked at Zhong Jurui several times in horror, and was frightened by this serious joke.Fuck, why is this dead face so friendly recently?
Recalling the group building last week, a group of more than a dozen of them went to eat near the company. Who knew that the food was served very slowly. The boss called the waiter and asked why the pot of tea was not served for half an hour.Zhong Jurui was sitting on the right hand side of the boss, seeing the waiter girl bowing and apologizing non-stop, looking pitiful like a little chick, and comfortingly said: "Don't apologize, our leader is very angry. You can't be hungry, you go to the kitchen to urge, and it will be fine when the food is served."
At that time, Du Ang felt the corners of his mouth twitching, and he lingered in his heart: the homophonic melody requires deductions.
When it was their turn to find a place to sit down after buying a meal, Du Ang couldn't help but ask Zhong Jurui what happened to him recently. The subtext was that Zhong Jurui's language expression was a little lively recently, which was not his old style.
"No big deal." Zhong Jurui thought about it and said, "Except that I failed my second subject, and I have to take leave next month to retake the exam, the opposite door has recently been renovated, and I can't sleep every morning with electric drills. Yesterday, my hands slipped and my phone screen fell. Broken, haven't had time to fix it...other than that, it's nothing serious."
Pete just came back to eat, and heard the words: "Have you been retrograde recently? My girlfriend is in the same sign as you, and Mercury has been retrograde for the past two days. I lost my ID card last week and my Mac this week, oh , I have to find time to buy it for her later.”
Zhong Jurui asked: "I lost my Mac too? Is it Air or Pro?"
Both Duang and Pete were silent.
Du Ang said: "People who don't have a girlfriend are so pitiful. They don't even know about this. Brother, let me give you a popular science. Mac is lipstick, and this Mac is not that MacBook. This is an important knowledge point."
Zhong Jurui raised his eyebrows and ate quietly—as far as he knows, although Pei Xu is very smug, he smears his face every day to keep his collagen delicate and tender, but his hobbies are still limited to skin care , does not intend to enter the field of make-up, become a coquettish boy, he does not need to master knowledge points such as lipstick.But the knowledge he has mastered obviously cannot please Pei Xu, especially when he tries to tell Pei Xu that some products are paying IQ tax, Pei Xu will stare at him hard, with a resolute expression on his face, trying to be fooled.
Thinking of Pei Xu, I can't help thinking that this person is very busy recently, and I don't know where to go to investigate medical supplies. It has been a week or two since Pei Xu told him that he was digging through the garbage dump, and he has no time to chat—not all Pei Xu is very busy. Under the guidance of Chen Jiarui's strategic consulting team, Zhong Jurui's team has made new adjustments. He has transferred from his original business to a new project. The project is called Gray. It has officially started for a week. The meeting is mixed with small meetings, and the feet are not on the ground.
Pei Xu's hair was unkempt, and against the backdrop of his fair skin, the blue color of the stubble appeared even more.Wearing a dirty down jacket, he stood in the small bathroom of the moving train washing his face.Coming out of the bathroom, looking at the fast-moving scenery outside the bullet train, my eyes are filled with the bleakness of winter.A little addicted to smoking, I looked up and saw the no-smoking sign in the carriage, sighed, but still didn't take out the cigarette case.
Not long after resigning from the supermarket last month, Pei Xu published a report on hygiene issues in the fresh food chain. He was contacting informants at home to see if there was anything worth tracking down. A supermarket tally clerk who had only met twice did not know. How to find his phone and call him.
"Are you a reporter?" the eldest sister asked, "They all said that you were a reporter who came undercover."
Pei Xu was a little embarrassed, wondering if the elder sister came to question her because she was involved in her work, and was about to interrupt her to deny it, but the elder sister said, "Can you help me? My nephew has been brainwashed by rumors, can you please?" Bring a TV station to expose them?"
Pei Xu had no choice but to say that he had nothing to do with the TV station. If the eldest sister wanted to find someone from the TV station, he knew someone and could help introduce them, but he couldn't guarantee whether they would go or not.
The eldest sister refused, saying that she couldn't trust others, knowing that Pei Xu was very good, and writing an article, the chain supermarkets would be closed for rectification, so she insisted on going: "Even if you can't smash a den of thieves, you persuade my nephew to come out, you are a big reporter , he will listen to what you say! Just treat it as a good deed, okay?"
Pei Xu had no choice but to agree to make this trip, and went to a nearby county-level city with the intention of persuading a young man who was not clear about his way.
The eldest sister spoke alarmistly, insisting that her nephew was brainwashed and controlled by the MLM organization. When Pei Xu went to take a look, it was not always the case.There are many reports about MLM organizations in the society, telling how they were deceived, how their personal freedom was controlled, and how to find ways to escape. There are also many victims. Ordinary people also have a superficial understanding of MLM. Pei Xu is well prepared for this. , I found that it was not as serious as the eldest sister said.Her nephew is working as a so-called "agent", and his personal freedom has not been controlled. Although a health care product he sells is very suspicious, and the direct sales model seems to be the same as pyramid schemes, but he brought the staff of the industrial and commercial department to Check it out, it's all legal.There is also a license, the things you buy are also within the scope of business, and the manufacturers are also regular manufacturers, so there is no room for law enforcement-all business activities are within the rules.
Pei Xu thought to himself, sure enough, he is afraid that liars also understand the law. After all, a liar who understands the law cannot be called a liar, and his business is legal.This trip is doomed to return in vain.
The nephew was very dissatisfied with his aunt bringing the reporter, so he became very angry, and gave Pei Xu cigarettes to make up for his smile, saying that it was a family conflict, and his aunt was jealous of his grandparents investing money in him, it was all a family matter, Not worth journalists to cover.
The eldest sister really scolded: "Your family brought over my mother's coffin, are you wicked or not? You even lied to your own family! You are relying on me and will not ignore my parents in the future."
After a while, the eldest sister's brother also came, and the family stood in the store and started arguing.
Pei Xu finally understood, it turned out that it was related to the money of the previous generation, and thought, well, it was used as a gun.It is difficult for an upright official to decide on housework, and he has no friendship with his elder sister, let alone take care of other people's family affairs. When the war of words between the two sides is about to subside, he pretends to be a good person and persuades his elder sister to leave.
With tears in her eyes, the eldest sister wiped her eyes with her sleeve as she walked, and asked Pei Xu, "Just tell me if this is a pyramid scheme! Pull one by one, develop offline, and only cheat old people's money. How is this not a pyramid scheme?"
Pei Xu had no choice but to say yes, but even if it was, it was still legal.
"Then you go and see what they sell, they say they can cure all diseases, how is that possible!" said the elder sister, "I see that the pills are all made of starch, and they have no effect. That electric chair can probably kill people. "
The truth is this, but there is no evidence for the propaganda of curing all diseases, and Pei Xu also knows that it is impossible for such a cunning businessman to say such relentless words.As for the fact that it doesn’t work, there are plenty of health supplements that are useless. They won’t kill you, but they can be used as a placebo.Pei Xu was also helpless.
He returned to the hotel, ready to take a nap and go home.The guest house in this small place is not ventilated, and there is a damp musty smell. Pei Xu was so stimulated by the smell that he couldn't fall asleep, so he turned on the computer and looked casually.The business license he saw during the day flashed through his mind, and he searched along the name, after searching, he sat up.
He saw an extremely familiar name in the list of shareholders.Tao Yibo.
Some names are fleeting, and some names are unforgettable.Some names are like a bug, you don't usually think of it, but when you see it, it's like being stung.Tao Yibo is such a name.The first time Pei Xu saw this name was from Pei Han's last report before he changed career seven or eight years ago.
What Pei Han reported back then was that a certain health care product contained carcinogens, and Tao Yibo was the second in command of the health care product company, and he resigned after the public opinion broke out.
Pei Xu hadn't remembered this person for a long time, but when he saw this name by chance today, his expression was very solemn.
Pei Xu’s professional senior, Zhong Nanping, once told him that China’s political structure determines the media structure, and journalists who want to use their swords to fight for justice are like fighting a tiger alone with a needle. At most, it will hurt the hearts of innocent people, and it is impossible for the tiger to bleed a drop of blood if you let yourself be buried in the tiger's mouth.As for the lice on the tiger's head, as long as the tiger is not dead, it will always jump up and down.
Tao Yibo, the louse, was still jumping up and down.And if you take a closer look, Tao Yibo now seems to be a hero again. He not only works for a pharmaceutical company, but has returned to his old business in the past two years and started making health care products again.
The hot air from the air conditioner was blowing on Pei Xu's face, Pei Xu only felt his forehead was hot, but his body was still cold under the blanket.
There was an inexplicable intuition that made him decide to stay and investigate again.
Pei Xu went back to the office.
His colleague Sang Xiaojun is currently doing a topic of molestation/children, lurking in various groups, pretending to be a fellow, the psychological pressure is so great that he collapses, he doesn't want to go home, and spends every day in the office. At first glance, he The Jiwotou you got was on par with Pei Xu who was on a business trip for a few days.
Pei Xu said, "Do you have anything to eat?"
Sang Xiaojun howled angrily: "No! I think I'm done. When a normal person says something, my first reaction is whether this is a code word. This topic selection is too shocking. I want to report a work-related injury."
Pei Xu patted him on the back, carrying his bag into Zhong Nanping's office.
The so-called "investigation" is partly based on self-discovery, and partly based on clichés. If people want to let their guard down, it will be difficult to maintain a glamorous appearance. Pei Xu has paid a lot for the investigation, and he didn't have time to take a shower in order to drive the car back.
Zhong Nanping glanced at him and said, "Which cesspit did you crawl from? Why does it smell bad?"
"Do you think I can stand myself? I rummaged through the trash all day yesterday." Pei Xu closed the door and had a long talk with Zhong Nanping. When he walked out of the office, he felt dizzy and had hypoglycemia.
He bought two chocolates and was so sweet that he coughed until he finally calmed down. He called Zhong Jurui by leaning on the electric pole by the side of the road—in fact, he was not sure whether Zhong Jurui would answer, after all, it was the evening of a weekday .Ten seconds later, a familiar "Hello" sounded from the phone.
Pei Xu laughed foolishly: "Zhong Jurui, I'm both stinky and sweet!"
Zhong Jurui said, "I miss you too."
☆、Chapter 63
Life after work is very different from life in school.When I was a student, I stared out the window in a daze, walked slowly on the side of the road, and followed the planes flying overhead. When I started working, these meaningless blank hours became memories.
Zhong Jurui couldn't remember what he was doing when he was free.
At that time, I didn't seem to have much pocket money, and I didn't have the opportunity to eat, drink and have fun everywhere. It would be an exaggeration to say that I was studying hard against the clock - no matter how strong my self-control is, I was still a young man.In retrospect, the most frequent scene is that he and Pei Xu nest in the activity room of the newspaper office, and they don't know what they did.
At that time, there was no money and no trivial matters, and the days flowed like water, so why didn't I feel bored?Zhong Jurui pondered.
He tried to ask Pei Xu out to play on Saturdays, but every time he came out, he went to restaurants, which seemed to be a very monotonous entertainment life. The dating strategies he found on the Internet were all designed to please girls. Zhong Jurui himself has no interest in Paradise, nor does he think Pei Xu would like it.
The only woman among colleagues heard him say that he didn't know what to do after get off work, and suggested him to listen to concerts and the like, saying that the burning scene might make an old iron tree like Zhong Jurui bloom.
Zhong Jurui has never cared about the entertainment industry, and he doesn't know any new faces on TV in recent years, and the singers he often listens to in the playlist are the ones he was popular in middle and high school.Zhong Jurui, who knew nothing about popular idols, successfully aroused the anger of his sister, who shouted: "You don't even know XX? The laptop advertisement he endorsed is printed on the bus platform downstairs. Have you never noticed?"
Zhong Jurui thought about it, and came to the conclusion that the configuration of the new model of the notebook is too poor, it is not as good as chicken ribs, it is simply chicken shit, and people who can't think of how much money and hot hands will buy it. As for the spokesperson next to the computer, He didn't look at it.
Du Ang saw that his sister was very excited, and asked, "Are you his fan?"
The elder sister laughed and said not exactly, she is at most a CP fan.
Married straight man Du Ang asked: "CP? What do you mean?"
Zhong Jurui is confident in grasping this knowledge point. The CP command in Linux is used to copy files or directories. He smiled slightly and gave his answer.Du Ang patted Zhong Jurui on the shoulder and said: Brother, I think you are right.
My sister was silent for a while, and said: "I can't refute it. But after you walk out of this office, CP has another meaning. My God, I am also an Internet worker. I don't leave my computer for 16 hours a day. You usually What are you looking at online?"
Du Ang said, "What does it mean to walk out of the office?"
"CP is the vast crowd. These two people must be together. No one can separate them. They are a couple. Do you understand?"
After much deliberation, Zhong Jurui didn't feel that who must be with whom, insisted that he and Pei Xu must be together, but it was impossible for him to say such a thing in front of his colleagues, except for him and Pei Xu, The only thing he felt that the two had to stay together was Legend of Phoenix. After the female singer finished singing, if there was no male singer to inject her soul, it would always feel incomplete and uncomfortable.
Du Ang also has no opinion on weekend entertainment. He has been busy sending his children to programming interest classes recently. In order not to let his son lose at the starting line, he had to reluctantly let his son be bald and take the lead.
Therefore, Zhong Jurui finally gave up literary and artistic activities.
——It is said that play items are becoming more and more fixed, which is a sign of getting old.
Zhong Jurui recalled the only few people he could call friends, and found that married people were in their own way, returning to the family on weekends, not fooling around with single people, and unmarried people were either workaholics like Zhong Jurui, only keen to watch The balance of the account has risen, and it is rare to make an appointment on weekends. They are all to inquire about the recent good financial products and commercial insurance, or Tang Cheng's kind, living among thousands of flowers, like a flower farmer.Shining brightly and standing out from the crowd is Chen Jiarui.As we grow older, everyone gradually accepts the inclinations of life, and is honestly pressed and rubbed on the ground. Only Chen Jiarui, who is passionate about overthrowing the little bitch of life, has endless tricks in his circle of friends. In his impression, he used to I just filled my bathtub two days ago, and planted Chinese cabbage in it, just to stew cabbage pork, oh, it can also be said to be stewed cabbage Hongxia-but this person has stopped a lot recently.
Zhong Jurui clicked on Chen Jiarui's circle of friends to learn some ideas. I am very grateful that in this society where people can only view it for 3 days, there are still people who don't mind others viewing their lives.
I turned to Chen Jiarui's circle of friends just posted today, and the accompanying picture is a row of knives hanging in the vegetable market.
"Sajia wants ten catties of lean meat. Cut it into scorpions. Don't see any fat on it. It's used for wrapping wontons in the house."
"Another ten catties, they are all fat. Don't see some fine ones on them, but also cut them into sausages. They are used for fried meatballs in the house."
Zhong Jurui himself doesn't like to post on Moments, so he doesn't like to watch Moments. He often misses some news. Only after seeing this will he react. It turns out that sister Hongxia died. She died young and deservedly. Zhong Jurui is quite sorry .Just turning to the one where Hongxia was sent to the small slaughtering workshop, Chen Jiarui seemed to have eyes and knew that Zhong Jurui was browsing his circle of friends. After a long absence, he sent a message saying that he found a store in the vegetable market and planned to fill some The sausage, when you have time, send it to Zhong Jurui for a taste, and then ask Zhong Jurui what flavor he likes, and whether he wants to add chili noodles if he is fat or thin.
——Chen Jiarui, who works for Party B, has also continued his good service attitude in his life.
Zhong Jurui let out a long sigh, it was very embarrassing for him to toss like Chen Jiarui, and finally resigned to his fate - he was really not suitable for any activities other than work.
Fortunately, Pei Xu didn't care what he was playing with when he was with him.
Pei Xu lives in a very old community.
In the community built in the 80s, the lighting was poor and the corridors were dim. People on the first floor were afraid that their electric cars would be stolen, so they parked their cars in. The already narrow aisles became even narrower.Pei Xu wondered how the burly elder brother who lived upstairs held his breath every time he went up to the second floor.
He took Zhong Jurui upstairs and reminded him: "Don't touch the railing, there is a smoke exhaust in the corridor, and the railing is stained with oily smoke, which is very sticky to your hands."
He wouldn't reach out to touch Zhong Jurui even if he didn't say anything, the voice-activated light was on, and the railing was suspiciously black and yellow.
Pei Xu led the way nonchalantly, and took out the key to open the door—the door was also very broken, and he failed to open it after twisting two keys.
"The door is broken, and sometimes it can be opened without a key. The lock is also troublesome. The one that opens the lock can't be replaced, and the door has to be replaced. The landlord promised to find someone to replace the door, but he hasn't come yet." Pei Xu explained.
"Why don't you stay at home?" Zhong Jurui came in to change his shoes and asked.
"I've been working as a light bulb for many years, and I have to give my brother some space for the two of us. Otherwise, he would take care of me in the first half of his life and his own children in the second half of his life. He would have no free time, which is too pitiful." It's gone." Pei Xu grinned.
Zhong Jurui looked around, there was no furniture, but the mess was visible to the naked eye, Pei Xu really didn't like to clean it up.He remembered that he had rented a small single room before, and Pei Xu had lived with him, and he had spent his time laying carpets, changing curtains and buying beanbag sofas, with small capitalism written all over his face, and now he didn't seem to care about those vain things up.
"I've been really busy lately." Pei Xu opened an iced Coke and was caught off guard by the iced drink, his gums ached.
Zhong Jurui adjusted his glasses, and while listening to Pei Xu's words, he couldn't help but began to tidy up the clothes piled up on the sofa like a hill.
Pei Xu's accidental discovery last time really pointed to a big discovery: he suspected that Tao Yibo was making and selling counterfeit medicines in an organized way.This is another version of Lu Yong's case, but this time, the protagonist is not the medicine god who saves all living beings, but the profit-seeking devil.Patients with advanced cancer need to take targeted drugs, but the imported targeted drugs are astronomical for some ordinary families, and some people will choose overseas generic drugs. Hong Kong is undoubtedly the easiest paradise to purchase.However, if it is a normal generic drug purchasing agent, at least it will not kill the patient, Pei Xuhuai
