Public examination landing guide

Nod your head and say yes.

Xu Jinghan took out a towel and put it on the towel rack in the bathroom, and took a deep breath in front of the mirror on the wall.

Tomorrow's classmate reunion, although there are many people, is not a good time to talk about serious matters, and he doesn't have any particularly close classmates.If Su Qiye's side can be finalized today, then things will most likely be stable.

Su Qiye's team can gain a firm foothold in Shanghai, at least there must be basic marketing and hype routines.No matter how bad it is, his father who is the deputy director of the TV station still has a lot of media resources.

Xu Jinghan adjusted his mood, returned to the room, sat on the chair next to Su Qiye, and asked, "How is it? Haven't finished watching yet?"

"The first article was from a neutral point of view and was impartial. Through objective analysis, it pointed out the loopholes in the revelations, and advised people to remain calm and wait and see. Deliberately spread rumors to save face, and dissect the darkness of human nature."

Su Qiye looked up at Xu Jinghan and said, "I'm afraid it's a little bit late—"

"Evidence!" Xu Jinghan said in one go.

"Yes, it's the evidence. The first of these two manuscripts should be before the key evidence appears, and the second should be after the situation turns around to guide the direction of public opinion. Do you have any evidence? Didn't you resign? Why did you write this all of a sudden?" Although Su Qiye wanted to make some hits, he was still very cautious.

Fortunately, Xu Jinghan knew that he couldn't deal with it on the spot, so he had insomnia at home for two days, anticipating all possible problems.

"My last company had a promotional cooperation with the relevant departments in Changzhou. A newcomer I had brought before was assigned to handle this. That kid is good at making pictures and cutting videos, but his writing skills are really poor. , I wrote several manuscripts back and forth, but they were all returned, and finally called me to ask for it. Everyone is living for a living, and it is not easy, so I just wrote two for him."

"You are soft-hearted. Back then, Xie Er was busy picking up girls. Teacher Fang called him back to rewrite his thesis because he didn't write it well. He also said a few nice words to you. You stayed up all night to help him revise the manuscript." Su Qiye recalled with a smile.

"You still remember this, it's okay for roommates to help each other." Xu Jinghan looked a little uncomfortable, and in order to cover up, he got up and poured a glass of water for the two of them.

He helped Xie Yonghong revise the manuscript back then because he was tall and handsome, and he had some shameful thoughts in it.

"The self-media accounts operated by my previous company were all about real estate, travel consultation, and beauty makeup. In fact, it's not suitable for posting this. If your company needs it, you can post it." Xu Jinghan handed a glass of white water to Su Qiye .

Su Qiye took the water glass and thanked him, then asked: "Since you have an official channel, the authenticity of the information is no problem, but can you guarantee that the evidence released will have a reversing effect? ​​Don't just have an official announcement Bar?"

Xu Jinghan pursed his lips, showing a look of embarrassment, and hesitated for a while before saying: "I can show you something, but I can't give it to you. This must be released by the official authority."

Xu Jinghan took out his mobile phone and played two interview videos for Su Qiye.

After Su Qiye saw it, he looked excited to do something big. He had a few accounts with about [-] fans in his hand, and he just needed to increase his influence.

"That's the deal with the old classmate. Are these two manuscripts really sent to me?" Su Qiye confirmed again and again.

Xu Jinghan looked indifferent: "You can post it, you are welcome, but there are still some details that need to be discussed."

That night, after Xu Jinghan sent Su Qiye away, he excitedly called Gu Tao to explain the situation regardless of the exhaustion of the journey.

"...I'm really lucky. Among my classmates back then, I only had a little more contact with a few roommates. I didn't expect that Su Qiye just opened a media company. I just went to the Internet to look at the big V numbers he mentioned. Fans They are quite active, and they should all be real fans. The WeChat official account he operates is also quite interesting, wrapping the chicken soup in his heart into a joke..." Xu Jinghan was a little excited, talking endlessly.

Seeing that things were going smoothly than expected, Gu Tao was also very happy. Although he didn't say anything, he didn't have much hope for Xu Jinghan at first.

Today's classmate associations are more or less utilitarian. They are a group of moderately successful classmates who take the opportunity to expand their network and seek resources.Xu Jinghan is not very good at the moment, and he didn't have any very good friends before, so it is still difficult to find someone to help.

On the day of the class reunion, the class leader led everyone to revisit the old places such as teaching buildings, libraries, and playgrounds.

There were four people in the dormitory back then, but only three people came today.Besides Xu Jinghan and Su Qiye, Xie Yonghong who was the second child in the dormitory also came.

Xu Jinghan was dragged by the two of them, and took more than a dozen photos according to the posture he took for graduation photos back then, and he shared them with Gu Tao immediately.

A group of old classmates were talking and laughing on campus.Even though the first classmate failed to come due to various reasons, the team is still much stronger than when they graduated.Many students brought their family members, and some even brought their children.

"I'll go, it's only been a few years since I graduated, and that kid Wang Xiantong even has a second child." Su Qiye looked sideways at the family of four not far away, and whispered to Xu Jinghan and Xie Yonghong.

Xie Yonghong raised his eyebrows and smiled, with a romantic look between his brows: "Didn't you expect that? Back then, the dead nerd who read novels on his mobile phone all day and bumped into other people's bicycles several times, has now become a well-known novelist. The royalties are all four to five million. By the way, what was the name of the fantasy drama that claimed to invest more than a billion yuan a year ago... Isn't it based on a novel he wrote?"

Su Qiye shook his head and said with emotion: "Life is really unpredictable! At that time, Wang Xiantong was dressed in rustic clothes, and no girls cared about him at all. He could only flirt in harem literature all day long. I didn't expect to get rich by writing cool articles. I also found a Beautiful wife."

"It's nothing, I heard recently—" Xie Yonghong looked around, and said in a low voice: "There are still some [-]th-line stars out there who want to hook him up, so that he can find a role in his next drama. "

Looking at the two ex-roommates who chatted more and more vigorously, Xu Jinghan discovered for the first time that men can also gossip like this.

What Xu Jinghan didn't expect was that during the dinner party, the flames of gossip from his classmates burned on him.

The monitor who was two or three seats away suddenly asked him, "Is Jing Han married? Why didn't you bring your family here today?"

"Huh? Not married yet... He's been very busy recently, so he couldn't come." As soon as Xu Jinghan mentioned family members, Gu Tao immediately came to Xu Jinghan's mind.

Su Qiye said with a smile: "Okay, we Xueba finally got the hang of it, and I don't know which beauty is so lucky?"

Xu Jinghan wondered if there were any beautiful women, but handsome men.

"Hahaha, back then there were so many girls looking at her secretly, but it's a pity that Xiao Xu was not on the channel at that time, so he couldn't receive the signal of love." Xie Yonghong joked.

Xu Jinghan looked blank: "Ah? There is such a thing, why didn't I know?"

A male student sitting next to him glanced at the classmate at the table, raised his chin and said to Xu Jinghan, "Didn't we, Banhua Ye, go to the library with you every day for one semester?"

Xu Jinghan thought about it carefully, and there seemed to be such a thing: "Yes, I still need to help occupy the seat every day."

Xie Yonghong looked like he hated iron for being weak, and sighed, he patted Xu Jinghan on the back: "Dude, you are here to read books, but Banhua is here to catch beautiful men."

Several boys around him booed for a while.

"Oh, what a pity that Banhua met you, a bookworm who is not enlightened."

"It's too late for you to regret it now, she's already got her name."

"Back then, there were several girls in our grade who liked Jing Han. It is said that they all failed. I'm curious about the girl who chased us down." Su Qiye said with a smile.

Xu Jinghan was dissatisfied and said, "Why didn't I catch him?"

The squad leader showed an exaggerated expression: "Come on, with your temper, you don't have the nerve to take the initiative to chase others. Just like Qi Ye said, the one who chased you is a genius, and you must worship him some other day."

A table of classmates laughed when they heard this.

Back at the hotel, Xu Jinghan took out his mobile phone and looked, Gu Tao sent him several messages on WeChat.

Gu Tao: "Who is that one with fox eyes, who smiles like a two hundred and five, and puts a pig's trotter on your shoulder?"

Gu Tao: "You are already a married man, don't hang around people all day long, even your classmates, you know?"

……

Gu Tao: "Huh? Why didn't you reply to the message? Damn! Could it be because you were dazzled by that male fox?"

Gu Tao: "Send me some pictures of your class when you have time, have you become fat, big-eared, bald, beer-bellied?"

Gu Tao: "[Proud] [Proud] So your husband is not only handsome and talented, but also can definitely stand the test of time. Finding someone like me is a real reward for you."

Xu Jinghan was amused by Gu Tao's jealous look.He took a selfie with his phone and sent it.

Xu Jinghan: "How about the grassroots in our class?"

A few minutes later, Gu Tao replied: "Handsome blinds me! [玫瑰] [玫瑰]"

Xu Jinghan dialed Gu Tao's phone number and joked, "Didn't you say that you are fat, big-eared, bald, and beer-bellied? Why did you change your mind so quickly?"

"Where can it be? I'm talking about the general situation. With a handsome guy like our family, Jing Han, with a face like peach blossoms, skin like cream, and eyes like stars, the class grass in your class must be extraordinary!" Gu Tao was like a city wall. It's really not bragging, such inconsistencies, and things that change on the spot are simply easy to come by.

Gu Tao suddenly thought of something, and said with a dangerous tone: "Since you are a class grass, there were many girls chasing you back then, right?"

Is this going to turn over old accounts?Xu Jinghan froze for a moment, and said a little hesitantly: "I didn't notice it when I was studying... Today at the dinner table, everyone chatted about the old things, and then I realized that there were girls who really chased me, and one of them was actually the class girl of our class. .”

Gu Tao was very satisfied with Xu Jinghan's answer, rubbing his chin and thinking, for a shy nerd like Xu Jinghan, let alone he only likes men, even if he likes women, he has to show his intentions and put on a posture to chase after her. .

"Honey, chasing class flowers is worth your fuss? Your husband, from elementary school to university, has a stable position as a school grassroots. You can be content with a handsome guy like me chasing you. Don't think about class flowers."

"Yes, yes, I am quite content." Xu Jinghan continued: "By the way, I will go to Su Qiye's company to finalize the details during the day tomorrow. How about you connect to the microphone remotely? I am afraid that some problems have not been considered carefully, so I still have to do it myself." check."

Gu Tao said, "Okay, call tomorrow morning."

☆, the heart of parents

The Yuzhou Public Examination went ashore to aspire to the group.

The salted fish on the shore: "Share on Weibo——"Second-generation official public examination shady scene is reversed!"."

Other topics in the group stopped abruptly, and everyone chatted about this matter.

Boss: "Damn it! Those who say there is a shady scene are slapped in the face, and the interview video is actually released. The second generation of officials is really awesome."

Awakening from a dream: "@阿朝喵@航航 Can you introduce me to your test friend? [Drool] [Drool] I'm really not a nympho, I'm an honest girl."

Dedicated to the public: "Upstairs, your saliva betrayed you. I'm afraid they have landed safely, so there is no need to make test friends."

Xiao Ke: "Has anyone already shared this video in the group? I just saw it on the public examination forum, and I want to forward it to the group friends to have a look."

The unity of knowledge and action: "This video came out yesterday afternoon. I saw it in the group of the public examination tutoring class. It seems that the official preliminary investigation results were released this morning. The person who first posted on the Internet saying that he was hacked is the person in the video. The candidate who stuttered."

Diving without bubbling: "Mistgrass! How dare you say that you have been hacked even if your level has been brushed down? Don't you have any clues in your heart? The time I was counterattacked in front of me, I didn't fight like him when I answered the question." Jie, why didn’t I spread rumors that I was hacked?”

BOSS: "I see that some masters in the comment area have calculated the topic of the impromptu speech. This guy thought for 2 minutes and 27 seconds, and answered for 1 minute and 21 seconds, of which 39 seconds got stuck."

I wanted to quietly: "That question is really difficult, it feels like a new question type, and it might be dirty if I say it."

BOSS: "That's why the second-generation official is very awesome. His speech sounds cadenced and expressive, but in fact he speaks very slowly, so he can also leave himself a certain amount of time to think during the speech."

Frivolous scholar: "I just saw "Loser's Self-Esteem and Inferiority" written by a big V. The analysis of the article is quite reasonable. Some losers can't pass the exam and feel that they can't save face. They can only beep and say that there is a shady .”

I want to eat noodles: "This shit is letting people live! I was born in the second generation of officials, with a handsome face, and my written test and interview scores are higher than mine, woo woo woo..."

Diving without bubbling: "I think it's a pity that Kaoyangcheng is so careless. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is more suitable for him."

Ah Xi Meow: "No, no, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is not suitable either. Make your debut, beautiful boy!"

Dedicated to success: "But what about his two luxury cars?"

The big white rabbit who loves toffee: "How about a luxury car? There are car fans on the Internet who have analyzed it. The 911 is an old model a few years ago. It is not a high-end model. It is only in the early million, and the Grand Cherokee is only about 200. The two cars add up to less than [-] million."

Song: "@一心成公, are you hating the rich? Then my cousin owns a Grand Cherokee, and he's just a fruit seller in front of the university."

The trend of public opinion on the Internet was quickly reversed under the careful arrangements of Xu Jinghan and Su Qiye.This also gave the relevant departments in Changzhou and Yangcheng a reassurance.The official investigation results were released one after another, and the turmoil about the shady public examination finally subsided on the surface.

Gu Yaoguo has always had strong political ambitions, so these years he has imposed strict constraints on himself and his family, both financially and personally.The relatives and friends in the family have also seen his method of destroying relatives righteously in the past few years, and no one dared to flaunt it in the name of Gu Yaoguo.

The investigation team tossed about for a long time and found nothing illegal, so it didn't take long for the public opinion on the Internet to subside, and Gu Yaoguo was quickly reinstated.

On weekends, when Gu Tao went back to Changzhou to visit his parents, Huang Xin specifically asked him to bring Xu Jinghan with him.

This time Xu Jinghan did a lot of work for the Gu family, and Huang Xin saw it. To express her gratitude, she specially chose to entertain Xu Jinghan at home, and even went to the hotel to pack some Changzhou specialties.

"Jing Han, come and try this pickled cabbage tofu fish, which is our specialty in Changzhou." Huang Xin put a piece of good fish in Xu Jinghan's bowl.

"Thank you, Aunt Huang!" Facing the overly enthusiastic Huang Xin, Xu Jinghan was somewhat overwhelmed. Fortunately, Gu Tao came to the rescue in time.

Gu Tao shook his head, showing a look of disappointment and sighing: "As soon as Jing Han came to the house, I fell out of favor, mom, you just serve Jing Han food."

Huang Xin gave his son a white look, and then put a piece of fish steak into his bowl: "Just act! I should have sent you to the Chinese opera back then, and now maybe I can bring back an Oscar."

Although Gu Tao was just joking, but Gu Yaoguo and his wife treated Xu Jinghan really kindly, no wonder Gu Tao was sour.

Gu Yaoguo has been in a high position for many years, and no one dares to easily offend him in this three-acre land in Changzhou.However, after time has passed, he is no longer as sharp-edged as he was when he was young, and his aura can be retracted freely.

Before dinner, Gu Yaoguo also chatted with Xu Jinghan for a while.His wife had already reminded him that Xu Jinghan was a somewhat introverted and shy child, so Gu Yaoguo's gentle attitude was like an ordinary elder caring about his nephew.

After learning that Xu Jinghan was going to work in Rongcheng soon, Gu Yaoguo also told a lot of interesting things about him when he first started working, and even made Xu Jinghan laugh.

Gu Tao on the side was stunned for a moment, thinking: Is this really his dad who has air-conditioning effect 365 days a year?

You must know that on weekdays, Gu Yaoguo's subordinates saw him like a mouse seeing a cat, and they were afraid to even go up to say hello, as if saying a wrong word would irritate Gu Yaoguo.Some young people who are new to the unit see Gu Yaoguo in the distance, and will directly take a detour while he is not paying attention.

Although Gu Yaoguo has never worked in the propaganda department, he can say a thing or two about the organizational setup and job functions in it, and he can also remind Xu Jinghan of the problems that need to be paid attention to according to the work characteristics of the administrative department.

After talking for a while, Xu Jinghan felt that he had benefited a lot. Gu Tao's father was not as vicious as Gu Tao told him, and would fight with a stick when he disagreed with him. On the contrary, he looked a bit like a professor with profound knowledge and experience in a university.

After dinner, Xu Jinghan took the initiative to help Huang Xin clean up the dishes, while Gu Tao was called by Gu Yaoguo to talk in the study.

Gu Tao knew that he was not Xu Jinghan, and without the buff of being a "guest", his father usually wouldn't give him any good looks.

Even if he was reluctant, Gu Tao had no choice but to follow Gu Yaoguo into the study with the same apprehension as if he was cheating on an exam.

"Sit down, our father and son haven't had a heart-to-heart talk for a long time. We just have time tonight, so we can have a good chat." Gu Yaoguo sat on the large leather chair, showing a trace of fatigue in his expression.

Gu Tao pulled a chair beside him.

The cold white group of lamps illuminated the study like daytime. Gu Tao suddenly discovered that his father had grown a few strands of white hair behind his ears, and there were some pale yellow spots under his forehead. This was the first time he realized that his father was getting old. , For a while, there were mixed feelings in my heart.

Gu Yaoguo is also about 60 years old. He is full of vigor and energy on weekdays, and he pays attention to maintenance. He looks no different from someone in his forties.But after all, he was getting old and his body couldn't stand the toss. After this turmoil, Gu Yaoguo obviously felt that his energy and physical strength were not as good as before.

"Dad, what do you want to talk to me about?" Gu Tao rarely showed a docile look in front of his father.

Looking at his son's more mature face, Gu Yaoguo didn't know what was going on in his mind. After a moment of silence, he said leisurely: "In our country's traditional culture, we pay attention to a 'scholar, farmer, businessman'. The officer is still in the first place."

As soon as Gu Tao heard it, he roughly understood what his father was going to say, and instead of answering back, he just lowered his head, crossed his fingers, and rubbed his two thumbs together.

Gu Yaoguo paused, and continued: "There are also many scholars and businessmen among our relatives in the Gu family. But without the influence of the Gu family in the political world, there are so many business people, why would your fourth uncle be able to join the CPPCC? ? How can your second uncle's cousin stand out from several competitors with similar qualifications and become an associate professor?"

"Dad, I understand what you said. Didn't I already take the public exam according to your wishes?" Gu Tao held back the impatience in his heart, he had already given in, what else did the family want?

It was rare for Gu Yaoguo to ease his tone, and said with a hint of relief: "You have been big-minded since you were a child, but luckily you are still willing to listen to me and your mother on important issues."

Gu Tao curled his lips, thinking: Can you be disobedient?Back then, when you became a department-level leader, you picked up the clothes fork and chased me to beat me even if you said something wrong, and you didn't care about your personal image.

Seeing his son's displeased expression, Gu Yaoguo snorted coldly: "Don't think I can't see it, and scold me in your heart again."

"How can it be? Are you overthinking again?" Gu Tao immediately said with a playful smile.

Gu Yaoguo has a headache for Gu Tao's sometimes glib and sometimes rebellious temper, who does he resemble?In desperation, he sighed: "You are the eldest grandson of the Gu family. From the perspective of family inheritance, your grandfather and I both think that you should be in politics. But now it seems that you are not suitable."

Hearing the implication of Gu Yaoguo's words, Gu Tao looked at his father in disbelief.

"Nowadays, the income of civil servants is average, even lower than that of masons outside. I am afraid that you can't support yourself with your expenditure level. Moreover, you are particularly resistant to this road, and you don't want to make a living. I am afraid that it will be difficult to have a bigger job in the future." development of."

Gu Yaoguo suddenly felt a sense of relief: "After this incident, I also want to understand that the risk of entering politics is quite high. Instead of letting you waste time in such a high-risk, low-paying job, it's better to let yourself go Do something you like."

"Really?" Gu Tao didn't expect such a big change in his father's attitude, and he couldn't believe it: "But what about your family development theory?"

Looking at his son's surprised expression, Gu Yaoguo said angrily: "Do you think that everyone has no ambition like you? Tell you, there are many people who want to be leaders?"

"Who is it?" Gu Tao knew that the family might have already found a spare tire.

"Your sister." Gu Yaoguo didn't intend to hide it from his son.

"Jia Hui?!"

"Yeah." Gu Yaoguo nodded and said, "With Jiahui's academic performance, he can directly apply for the most important department in Changzhou. It's not like you. After taking the exam for a year, you can't get into the interview, and you have to go to the province to save the country."

Gu Tao rubbed his nose guiltily, he didn't go to S Province to save the country, he planned to stay and fly with Jing Han.

"Is Jiahui willing? If she doesn't want to, don't force her. Then I'd rather do it by myself." As an older brother, Gu Tao would never allow his younger sister's life choices to be sacrificed for his own selfishness.

"You have a bit of a conscience. Don't worry, the family has already discussed with Jiahui, and she is willing. Jiahui has a strong temper since she was a child, and she is willing to prove that she is better than your cousins. " Gu Yaoguo said.

"Hey hey!" Gu Tao rubbed his hands suddenly and said with a smirk, "If grandpa Quan Xia knows something, he will be very angry! His old man has always favored boys over girls, and in the end our family has to rely on Jiahui to support us."

Gu Yaoguo looked at Gu Tao and scolded with a smile: "You still have the face to say, it's not that you are a bastard. I don't think it's better to have a son these days than a daughter! The children in the municipal committee compound back then, now nine of the ten girls are promising. A group of stinky boys, but most of them can't pass the formal examination, so they can only make do with their parents as temporary workers."

☆, found clues

Although Xu Jinghan followed Gu Tao back to Changzhou for the third time, but the first two times were urgent, and he didn't have much fun coming and going in a hurry.This rare time, Gu Tao finally had the opportunity to fulfill his promise, and took Xu Jinghan to eat, drink and have fun everywhere in Changzhou City.

"Jing Han, come here!" Gu Tao took advantage of his long legs and walked a few steps to a small stall selling spicy fried tofu not far ahead, and he still turned around and waved to Xu Jinghan for him to follow.

Xu Jinghan trotted over quickly.

"This spicy fried tofu is delicious. I used to buy it when I was studying in No. [-] Middle School in the city. I remember that there were a lot of people after school, and I had to queue up to eat it. Unexpectedly, more than ten years have passed, and the boss is still setting up a stall here. .”

The boss laughed and said, "The young man is right. I have been selling fried tofu on this road for almost 20 years."

Gu Tao scanned the QR code posted on a conspicuous place on the booth with his mobile phone, and then said to the boss: "Two servings of spicy fried tofu, one without coriander and less pepper."

Soon the boss packed two servings of hot fried tofu in a paper box and handed them to Gu Tao. Gu Tao thanked him and gave the one without coriander to Xu Jinghan.

Xu Jinghan skewered a small piece of tofu with a bamboo stick, blew on it twice before putting it in his mouth, chewed a few mouthfuls, and nodded slightly: "Yeah, it's delicious! The outside is crispy, and the inside is soft and tasty."

"That is, otherwise why have I been thinking about it for so many years?"

Gu Tao took Xu Jinghan to eat while shopping, and he didn't forget to explain the origin of the snack street.

"One side of this road is next to the south gate of the No. [-] Middle School of the city. There is a branch road in the middle of the road. It is about two or three kilometers away from a junior college. In the past, many residents nearby would push tricycles and set up The stalls formed a snack street after a long time. Later, out of the consideration of city appearance and food safety, the government invested in renovation and built such a row of shops along the street.”

With food in hand, the two walked slowly, and Xu Jinghan glanced at the vendors along the street from time to time.

In front of the tricycle selling iron plate squid, the boss is vigorously sprinkling powdered spices on the squid tentacle; two middle school students in school uniforms are standing next to the stall selling spiked potatoes; the sound of the mixer is faintly heard from the milk tea shop ... Along the street, there are Changsha stinky tofu, Xinjiang mutton skewers, and Sichuan maocai...

"The things sold here feel the same as the snack streets all over the country." Xu Jinghan swallowed a piece of tofu and commented.

After eating the fried tofu, Gu Tao casually threw the paper box into the trash can on the street: "But the price here is more affordable, after all, it is a student business. In the snack streets of those tourist cities, you have to drink a glass of water for ten yuan. My tofu is only five yuan."

Walking all the way down from the snack street, Gu Tao dragged Xu Jinghan to eat a lot of messy things, both of them felt a bit full.

Originally, Gu Tao wanted to take Xu Jinghan into the city's No. [-] Middle School, but unfortunately the guard refused to let him in.

"Hey! I wanted to go in and feel nostalgic." Gu Tao said regretfully looking at the tall courtyard walls of his alma mater.

Xu Jinghan smiled and said, "After all, it's a school, not a scenic spot. Parents and teachers can rest assured that outsiders can come in and out casually."

"Forget it, then I'll take you to the old municipal committee's family courtyard. That's where I grew up with Xu Rui and Wang Yi."

"Yeah." Xu Jinghan nodded in agreement.

Compared with the vigorous construction of the new city, the old municipal committee's family courtyard located in the old city seems to have been forgotten by time. All the layouts remain the same, and even the flowers and plants in the community seem to be as they are in Gu Tao's memory.It's just that those flower beds that were half his height back then can only reach his calf now.

The trees in the community have a history of at least ten years, and the dense canopy can block out the sun, making people feel much cooler when walking in the community than on the street outside.

The familiar scene in front of him is like a key to open the door of memory, which evokes many memories of Gu Tao's childhood.

"When I was young, the girls in the yard loved to play house with the flowers and plants in the flower beds, and the boys liked to play games like 'horse riding and fighting' there." Gu Tao pointed to an open space under a few jujube trees Said.

"War on horseback?" Xu Jinghan blinked curiously.Most of the time he was shut up at home to read his homework and rarely had the opportunity to play games with other children, so he naturally didn't quite understand what Gu Tao was talking about.

"It is a group of two people, one child is a 'horse', carrying another person on his back, and the person on the back is a 'general', who is responsible for pushing and beating the other group of people and horses. Whichever 'general' lands first is the loser. " Gu Tao patiently explained, and after he finished speaking, he felt a little regretful. He felt that the childhood games were very naive, and the compulsion was too low, so he couldn't help but look at Xu Jinghan.

Fortunately, Xu Jinghan's focus is not on imposing style at all.

"Isn't that dangerous? What if you fall? Don't parents care?"

"Raising children more than ten years ago was not as meticulous as it is now. It seems that something really happened once. That kid Xu Rui used to be as thin as a bamboo pole. He insisted on carrying others, but he couldn't stand firmly and threw him down."

Gu Tao looked up at the yellow horned tree in the distance, rubbed his chin and tried to remember: "Who is he carrying?... I can't remember, anyway, that buddy was unlucky, and his head just hit the edge of the stone in the flower bed , got his head broken and bleeding, and was sent to the hospital for several stitches."

Gu Tao looked indifferent, he just wanted to tell a funny childhood story.

But Xu Jinghan couldn't help but sighed: "You guys played too wild before, and I suddenly found that it's not easy for you to grow up safely."

At the same time, he also understood why Gu Yaoguo wanted to educate Gu Tao with sticks.No way, the child is too bear!

The night before returning to Yuzhou, Gu Tao and Xu Jinghan accompanied Huang Xin to the supermarket for shopping.

"I'll go to the freezer over there to get a bottle of yogurt, what flavor do you want?" Xu Jinghan asked Gu Tao who was pushing a shopping cart beside him.

"It's fine, I'll drink whatever you want. I'll accompany mom over there to see the fruit." Gu Tao pointed to the other side: "I'll find you later."

In the fresh fruit area, Huang Xin was picking kiwis.Gu Tao pushed the shopping station and waited for her.At this time, the supermarket salesperson took a box of cherries that had just been taken out of the freezer and placed them on a shelf next to them.

Gu Tao walked over in a few steps, without looking at the price tag of 40 yuan a catty, a box of nearly [-] yuan, and directly took a box of cherries and put them in the shopping cart.

Huang Xin had just weighed the kiwi, and when he saw the cherries Gu Tao put in the shopping cart, he teased, "Why do you think of buying cherries? You didn't eat them for more than ten yuan a catty before, and you said you would eat this" motherfucker '. Now that you become an Internet celebrity, you won’t be a mother?"

Gu Tao didn't think too much, and casually replied: "Jing Han likes to eat this." Then he pushed the shopping cart to find Xu Jinghan.

Looking at his son's back, Huang Xin was thoughtful.

Like many young people nowadays, Gu Tao is relatively easy-going in life, knows how to enjoy life but does not deliberately pursue refinement.When conditions permit, five-star hotels don't care about the price when ordering dishes, but if he wants to cook a table by himself, he might as well order a bowl of old altar sauerkraut and make do with it.

A person like Gu Tao, who is connected with Buddhism and can even dismiss himself casually, never pays attention to what other people like to eat.Even if he knew, he wouldn't go against his straight man logic to cater to others.

Huang Xin recalled that during meals these few days, Gu Tao would put seafood like fish and shrimp in front of Xu Jinghan every time. These were obviously what Xu Jinghan liked to eat.At that time, I didn't think there was anything wrong, I just thought that my son had improved in dealing with others.Now that I think about it, it's really not quite right.

Although he was skeptical, Huang Xin was also a person who had experienced a lot of ups and downs, and he still looked as usual, talking and laughing with his son and Xu Jinghan to go shopping.He just secretly observed the interaction between his son and Xu Jinghan carefully.The more you pay attention to some answers, the more they are ready to come out.

Before Huang Xin pierced the window paper, Gu Tao and Xu Jinghan returned to Yuzhou, because Xu Jinghan was going to work in Rongcheng soon.

Before leaving, Gu Tao repeatedly asked: "Take good care of yourself when you get to Rongcheng. I'll go find you after I've dealt with the affairs in Yuzhou."

"I'm afraid it's you who don't make people feel at ease!" Xu Jinghan muttered, "It's better for you to cook some simple meals by yourself at home, whether it's instant noodles or quick-frozen dumplings, it's not good for your health."

Gu Tao rubbed his nose guiltily: "Don't worry, my stomach has been spoiled by you, and now I feel like throwing up when I smell instant noodles, how can I eat those things. Don't sit around all day long in Rongcheng At home, go out for a walk more, and get familiar with the routes of eating, drinking and having fun, and then I will have to rely on you to take me out."

Gu Tao did not drive Xu Jinghan himself this time, but asked Xu Rui to help Xu Jinghan move. He still has some finishing work to do.

In an apartment building in the core business district of Yuzhou.

Every meal time, the elevator entrance is full of people waiting to go up and down.

A group of young people finally squeezed into the elevator to the 23rd floor.On this floor of the building, in addition to a board game room and two children's training institutions, there is also a well-known private restaurant hidden in the market.

"Fatty, have you made an appointment in advance? Do you usually need to make an appointment to eat this kind of private food?" A young man in a white shirt and black trousers asked at a glance who worked for a nearby agency.

The round-faced man who walked in the front and was responsible for leading the way turned around and said, "No, last time I came here for a temporary meal with a few friends..."

Before they finished speaking, the group of people had already walked to the door of the private restaurant.I saw that the iron door was locked tightly, and there was a wooden sign hanging on the door, which said: The owner has something to do, and he will be closed for a day!

A group of young people could only curse and complain, then turned and left in disappointment.

At this time, the private restaurant is still brightly lit, and the owner is busy working in front of the stove.A portion of green vegetables was poured into the pot, and a pinch of open fire quickly sprang up in the pot, and the person in charge of the spoon was a dark-skinned man
