Chapter 1341: The Other World (56)
In less than half an hour, Pang Xiaonan brought a few fragrant dishes to the table, including fried beef with chili, fried chicken with mushrooms, chicken and mushroom soup, and stir-fried emperor dishes.
Pang Xiaonan spread the chopsticks on the table, and shouted into the living room: "It's time to eat, Mr. Zhang!" I saw Zhang Yao jump up from the sofa, ran over, leaned on a plate of mushroom fried chicken and sniffed it vigorously, and did not hesitate to praise it: "It's really fucking fragrant!" After speaking, he couldn't wait to sit down, picked up the chopsticks and went to pick up the vegetables.
After eating a piece of chicken, Zhang Yao gave Pang Xiaonan a thumbs up again: "He is worthy of being a chef in the countryside!" Then she looked at the empty bowl and asked Pang Xiaonan: "Where's the rice?"
Pang Xiaonan was also stunned, "Yes, where's the rice?"
"You ask me? Zhang Yao looked innocent.
"I cooked it, but you didn't buy rice. Pang Xiaonan was really careless this time, and asked Zhang Jiao to bring vegetables and snacks over, but he forgot to ask her to buy rice, but he didn't have anything else here except fire and kitchenware.
In Zhang Xiao's stunned eyes, Pang Xiaonan got up and said comfortingly: "Okay, you eat the vegetables first, and I'll go to the neighbor's house next door to borrow some food." After saying that, he went into the kitchen, got a big bowl, and went out to Councilor Wang's house.
Su Xiaomei opened the door, saw Pang Xiaonan holding a big bowl, and asked with concern: "You haven't eaten, have you?" Come in, we are about to eat, let's eat together, what are you doing with the bowl?"
Pang Xiaonan smiled awkwardly and said, "No, no, Aunt Mei, I'm not here to eat, I'm here to borrow food, there are guests at home, but I forgot to buy rice, I only bought vegetables, so I want to borrow some food from you." ”
Councilor Wang happened to come down from the second floor, and when he heard Pang Xiaonan's words, he smiled and teased: "You have become an authentic person to eat, who is at home?"
Pang Xiaonan glanced at Councilor Wang: "You were drunk yesterday and woke up so soon?"
Councilor Wang shook his head and said, "Where did I wake up, I slept until now, and I was still dizzy, but my stomach was empty and uncomfortable, so I still had to come down and eat something." ”
"Then you go and eat," Pang Xiaonan walked towards the kitchen, "I'll order food, so I won't disturb you to eat." ”
Pang Xiaonan returned home with a bowl of rice, Zhang Jiao had already eaten a mouth full of oil, and when he saw him come in with rice, he hurriedly greeted: "Give me the rice quickly, if you don't eat, the dishes will be finished for me." ”
While serving the rice, Zhang Yao praised and said: "Don't say it, your dish really makes a kind of rural taste, I have never eaten this kind of dish with this taste before, and your method also has a unique flavor, although it doesn't look good, but it tastes unforgettable." ”
People love to listen to flattery, and so is Pang Xiaonan, he patted his chest exaggeratedly and said: "I won't tell you, I'm in our country, it's a famous little chef in ten miles and eight towns, and people who have eaten my dishes want to eat again." Today, it's because you didn't buy any ingredients, otherwise the taste would be even better. ”
"That's good, next time you open an order, I'll buy it for you. Zhang Jiaozheng sandwiched a piece of beef into the bowl, gulped the rice, and commented, "I used to eat steak, and I have never eaten fried beef like yours, it's delicious." ”
"What, there's another time. Pang Xiaonan complained bitterly, and he was about to get into trouble for a while.
After the two finished eating, Pang Xiaonan leaned on the back of the chair and burped, and said to Zhang Yao: "I made the rice, please clean up the table and wash the dishes." ”
"Why? I'm a guest, you have to fulfill the friendship of the landlord, and you have to wash the bowl!" Zhang Yao patted his swollen stomach and showed no weakness.
Pang Xiaonan was stunned for a while, Zhang Jiao said that there was nothing wrong, how could he let the guests wash the dishes and wipe the table? However, he reacted at once and retorted: "You really regard yourself as a guest! You are here yourself, and I didn't invite you! If you want to say that you are a guest, you are also an uninvited guest." ”
Zhang stood up suddenly, pointed to his bulging belly and said: "Look at it, what have you eaten me into, it's been almost a few months, no, I really can't move, you help, next time I invite you to eat delicious, I promise not to do it." After speaking, she ignored Pang Xiaonan, crossed her waist and slowly moved to the living room, that posture was really like a pregnant woman who had been pregnant for a few months.
"Hmph, I don't have the appearance of a lady, and I still say that I am the princess of a big family......" Pang Xiaonan muttered and stood up, knowing that these things were his, he couldn't escape, and began to clean up the mess on the table.
After cleaning up in the kitchen, Pang Xiaonan also walked to the living room and lay down on the sofa, but Zhang Jiao didn't let him rest, and commanded: "Pang Xiaonan, the guests have finished eating at your house, shouldn't you make a cup of tea, a cup of tea after the meal, this is the rule of hospitality, didn't your parents teach you?"
Pang Xiaonan glanced at Zhang Xiao, and said weakly: "You really think I am your servant, you want to drink tea and make it yourself." I'm going to take a break. ”
Zhang Yao walked over from the sofa and pulled Pang Xiaonan hard, wanting to pull him up, "No, you just want a one-stop service today, get up quickly and make tea." ”
But where can Zhang Jiao pull Pang Xiaonan, he didn't move after a few efforts, collapsed on the sofa, and complained: "You are too heavy, I can't move, hurry up, Pang Xiaonan, I'm thirsty, go make tea, go, go, hurry up, and ...... later, it's a bit of a god.
Pang Xiaonan couldn't bear to be disturbed, stood up helplessly, and gave Zhang Yao a lesson: "Look at you, where do you look like a teacher? I actually went to the student's house to eat and drink, and asked the student to give you a one-stop service, I don't understand, there are still people like you who go to class, okay, okay, don't make trouble, I'll go make tea!" After speaking, he burped and went to the kitchen.
Still took out Councilor Wang's tea, Pang Xiaonan brewed two cups of hot tea, and brought it to the coffee table in the living room, Zhang Jiao couldn't wait to pick up the teacup, sniffed it closely, and couldn't help but sigh: "Good fragrant tea, Pang Xiaonan, is your tea also left by your relatives?" ”
Pang Xiaonan ignored her, slumped on the sofa and looked at the roof, reminding: "If you have tea, drink it, be careful of scalding." ”
Both of them sat on the soft fabric sofa and didn't want to move, Zhang Xiao drank tea and watched TV, Pang Xiaonan closed his eyes and recuperated, there was only the sound of the TV in the huge space, and the faint sound of the waves crashing on the beach, just when Pang Xiaonan was about to fall asleep, Zhang Xiao patted him and woke him up, "Pang Xiaonan, I want to go and see the sea." ”
"Can you not be surprised," Pang Xiaonan stroked his chest and glared at Zhang Jiao with squinted eyes, "I had a good dream, but you made it yellow." ”
"What kind of dreams do you have at noon," Zhang Yao looked at Pang Xiaonan with a smile, "I'm such a big beauty sitting next to you, and you still have beautiful dreams, hum!"
"You can't just go to see the sea by yourself," Pang Xiaonan pointed to the sea outside the window, "It's the sea outside, you still have to wake me up, Teacher Zhang, can you let me take a break?" ”
"No, I want you to accompany me," Zhang Yao didn't relent, "It's boring to watch Haiduo alone, but it's only flavorful when two people watch it." ”
"It's a smell," Pang Xiaonan got up helplessly, "It's all a fishy smell, let's go, I'll take you to the terrace on the second floor, stand tall and see far away." ”
Pang Xiaonan took the teacup and led Zhang Yao to the wide terrace on the second floor, sat down on the sofa facing the sea, took a sip of tea, put the teacup on the small coffee table next to him, and began to close his eyes again.
Zhang Jiao saw a large piece of sea on the terrace, and ran to the railing with joy, looking at the railing from afar, the opposite Huahai City was on the other side of the sea, and the sailboats on the sea were dotted, a good picture of a comfortable life.
Zhang Jiao turned around and called excitedly: "Pang Xiaonan, you have a good scenery here!" But she saw Pang Xiaonan sleepy, so she trotted all the way to Pang Xiaonan's side, shook his shoulder and said, "Don't sleep, you big lazy worm, get up and talk to me for a while." ”
Pang Xiaonan opened his eyes and said listlessly: "Teacher Zhang, can you stop being noisy, just look at the sea, and talk about what day, the sea is calm, not exciting." ”
Zhang Xiao sat down beside Pang Xiaonan, took a sip of his teacup, and said, "Look at the sea, chat, this is life, Pang Xiaonan, I am your teacher, you have to listen to the teacher, get up, I have something to tell you." ”
Pang Xiaonan didn't listen to anything, he saw Zhang Yao drinking his tea, he glared and protested loudly: "Damn, that's my teacup, can you talk about hygiene?"
"Hmph, I don't dislike you for being unhygienic, you still dare to dislike me?" Zhang Yao ignored him and took another sip.
"Okay, okay, give you a drink, I'm afraid of you, if you have anything to say, you can say it, I'll listen. "Pang Xiaonan thought to himself that you said you, I dozed off my sleep, don't be so startled.
Zhang Yao looked at the vast sea, her mood broadened, and her thoughts drifted into the distance, and suddenly she spoke: "My grandfather is Zhang Qingshan, do you know him?"
Pang Xiaonan squinted and shook his head blankly. Zhang Yao sighed and said, "You don't even know my grandfather, I really don't know if you are Chinese." ”
"Is your grandfather very famous?" Pang Xiaonan had to echo the questions and answers in order to cooperate with Zhang Yao.
"My grandfather was the founding hero of the United States of Hualong, and he led the army to be the pioneer in pacifying the northwest, and later maintained law and order in the northwest, and competed for territory with surrounding countries, you don't know this, how did you pass the test in history?" Zhang Yao was very skeptical that Pang Xiaonan could be admitted to the Dongli Military Academy, and he didn't even know the common sense of history with such academic performance, and he dared to call himself a student of the Dongli Military Academy, especially the Dongli Military Academy that started with the military.
"I'm a science student, I don't take a history exam. Pang Xiaonan's answer made Zhang Xiao vomit blood angrily, but Pang Xiaonan searched for Zhang Qingshan in his mind in a dazed state, there is indeed such a person, nicknamed the King of the Northwest, just like Zhang Xiao said, he is a well-known figure in the Hualong United States.
"It turns out that your grandfather is Zhang Qingshan, then you are still behind the door, no wonder your personality is so spicy. Pang Xiaonan said casually, obviously still haunted by Zhang Yao's previous performance, he was half-squinting when he spoke, half-asleep, and Zhang Yao didn't know if he was talking in his dreams or after thinking about it.
Zhang Yao glanced at Pang Xiaonan resentfully, ignored him, and told his own story.
"After my grandfather pacified the northwest, he returned to Zhongdu, presided over other work, served as the finance minister for a period of time, and made a lot of achievements in the economy of China, of course, my father also came into contact with a lot of business tycoons in China during this time, so as to master a lot of resources, and began to engage in business. ”
"Oh, it turned out to be a combination of government and business. Although Pang Xiaonan was half asleep, he was still conscious, especially when he heard Zhang Yao's introduction, he naturally thought of a word, collusion between officials and businessmen, which is not unusual, half of China's economy is a government-run economy, and almost all the people at the helm of government-run enterprises are the original founding heroes or their children.
This is also a helpless thing, after all, at the beginning of the founding of the country, there was no strong leader, and the economy could not develop, so the founding leaders slowly mastered the economic lifeline of China, and therefore continued several big families, and not all the founding heroes have entered the economic circle, after all, the operation of this still requires a certain ability, Zhang Yao's Zhang family, by chance, came into contact with more economic affairs, and the descendants are more powerful, so it has become a well-known family.
"My father is my grandfather's eldest son, so he has received more attention and has access to more resources, so it can be said that our family operates the most Zhang family industry," Zhang Yao sighed, " Hey, it's a pity, my dad didn't give birth to a son, only I have a daughter, which gave me a lot of pressure, I was regarded as the successor of the Zhang family's industry, but I don't like shopping malls, I just like to be simple, shopping malls are too cruel, and, those sons and brothers who chase me, I can't tell whether they like me or like my family's property, I guess they still come to my family's property. ”
Zhang Yao glanced at Pang Xiaonan, Pang Xiaonan still looked lazy and sleepy, and his mouth was hmmmmmm "That's fine, I've been in Huahai City for so long, and I haven't confided in anyone, it's best if he falls asleep, as long as I talk to my heart's content. Zhang Miao thought so and continued to reveal his heart.
"Hey, I've been in love once when I've grown up, or abroad, I know there must be no result, how can a family like ours be combined with a foreigner? That must be the result of being recognized as a foreign country, so after returning to China, I never fell in love again, until my father asked me to marry a son-in-law brother in Zhongdu. ”
Thinking of this, Zhang Yao shook his head, "Hey, I haven't even seen what this son-in-law looks like, so my family will let me marry, change to you, you want to marry a wife, you don't even know whether she is beautiful or ugly, do you dare to marry? ”
"So I secretly left the house, came to Huahai City, the family did not accept it at first, always urged me to go back, but after a long time, it was not so forced to me, they also knew that I could not escape for the rest of my life, sooner or later I have to go back to take over their career, rather than forcing me, it is better to let me have a good experience outside for a few years, maybe after a few years have passed and figured it out, I will willingly go back to take over, and even find a good son to marry. ”
"But I still like the days of teaching in school, I like to be with the students, I feel free to be with them, I feel like I'm back to the age of innocence, I don't have to think about the deceit in the mall, I live a carefree life, I can do whatever I want. I sometimes think that if I didn't have the children and grandchildren of the Zhang family, I would be able to live according to my own ideas, but my family is just one of my daughters. ”
Pang Xiaonan leaned crookedly on the sofa, although he was napping, but he understood the general meaning of Zhang Yao, this is a very boring story - a rich girl escaped marriage, fought against her family, and finally returned home under pressure, married a man she didn't love, and later met a confidant outside...... Pang Xiaonan didn't have to think about this routine, so he pretended to listen to it, and his mouth was in response, but his mind was a mess, and he was wandering in the sky.
"In the past few years in Huahai City, sometimes I also think that if I can find someone I love, and then he is very capable, he can go back to take over in my place, and I can continue to teach with peace of mind. Speaking of which, Zhang Yao glanced at Pang Xiaonan, and when she saw that he was still napping, she was relieved.
"But the news of my coming to Huahai City, those big families at the top don't know why, like that Nangong Jim, I don't know where he heard my news, and he has been pestering me, if it weren't for you, I don't know what to do, can I use the relationship of the Zhang family to suppress him? ”
"However, I do feel quite guilty about you, although the Nangong family is nothing in the entire Huaguo, after all, there is still some influence in Huahai City, if you offend Nangong Jim, he will definitely find trouble for you in the future. But don't worry, if he does anything to endanger you, I will protect you, even if I agree to the conditions of the family, I will not let you be harmed, after all, I pulled you into this whirlpool. ”
Zhang Jiao's mouth was a little dry, and when he looked at Pang Xiaonan's cup of tea, he unceremoniously took a sip and took a long breath, "Hey, it would be better if you were stronger, although you are very good at fighting, but in the current era of peace, who still has the ability to fight and kill, our family values more the ability of behind-the-scenes planning and business operation, that is to say, your background, your comprehensive quality, this is what is most important in politics." ”
"Besides, you're just a student. Zhang Yao looked at the sea in the distance, and the sea water shone in layers under the sunlight, which made people dizzy.
A seabird flew from the back mountain to the sea, flew over Pang Xiaonan's villa, a huge figure crossed the terrace, and then called, "pop", a piece of fresh and hot feces fell on the parasol above the sofa where Pang Xiaonan and Zhang Yao were sitting, Pang Xiaonan was frightened and woke up.
Pang Xiaonan looked at his head, his face turned green when he landed, and he called out to the big bird in the distance: "You stupid bird who doesn't have long eyes, how can you defecate anywhere? He thought to himself that he had a parasol on his head, or he would really be the man with the dunghole on his head.
It was also this moment that Pang Xiaonan came to his senses, he could have been able to nourish his spirit as long as he squinted for a while, he had been listening to Zhang Yao's nagging here for almost half an hour, and he had almost rested, so he sat down calmly, looked at Zhang Yao with clear eyes and said, "Finished?"
Zhang Yao blinked, took another sip of his tea, and replied, "It's over." ”
Pang Xiaonan pursed his dry lips and snatched the teacup, but found that there were only a few dry tea leaves left in it, he put the cup on top of his mouth, shook it vigorously, and only dropped a few drops of tea, he swallowed hard, moistened his mouth, turned his head and said to Zhang Yao: "Let's leave when I'm done, I'll send you home, I have something to do in the afternoon." ”
Pang Xiaonan walked downstairs with a teacup, and Zhang Yao also got up to follow, and asked, "Did you hear what I just said?"
Pang Xiaonan scratched his head and said perfunctorily: "Well, I heard a little, don't worry, I won't embarrass you, Nangong Jim's matter, if you put a hundred hearts, what else can he do with me? I killed him!"
On the way to drive Zhang Yao home, Pang Xiaonan looked at Zhang Yao who was sitting in the co-pilot from time to time, and was full of emotion in his heart: "A charming female teacher is so bitter in her heart! Fortunately, it's not my woman, otherwise I wouldn't be much better!"
Zhang Xiao looked at Pang Xiaonan with suspicion, a poor student who lived in a villa with a sea view and drove a domineering off-road vehicle, was this still the Pang Xiaonan she knew? Wasn't Pang Xiaonan a poor student from the countryside? But she never asked, she was afraid of hurting Pang Xiaonan's self-esteem.
At the gate of the teacher's new village, Zhang Yao got out of the car, Pang Xiaonan waved at her, and was about to leave with one foot on the accelerator, Zhang Yao leaned on the window and said to him: "I'll go to you to cook and eat next week." ”
Pang Xiaonan drove to the Huamei Electronics Market, found a place to park, there were cars everywhere, found a parking space for a long time, parked far away, then got out of the car, walked to the fourth floor of the Huamei Electronics Market, and came to the stall of the "Universal Repairman", Fang Zheng was busy in the dark, with a large stack of mobile phones waiting for repair.
Pang Xiaonan sat down on a stool outside the counter, knocked on the glass of the counter, and said, "Senior Brother Fangzheng, are you repairing your mobile phone again?"
Fang Zheng raised his head from the messy repair stall, saw that it was Pang Xiaonan, grinned, and said, "Yo, it's you, what's the matter? You find me some high-end work?
Pang Xiaonan approached and said, "It's all together, we can start work." ”
Fang Zheng lifted his glasses, frowned, and said suspiciously, "It's really done?"
Pang Xiaonan nodded solemnly and said, "It's really done." As he spoke, he took out his phone.
As soon as the mobile phone was taken out in the air, he suddenly slapped his head at himself, he forgot that his money had already bought old ginseng and rough stones, and the rest of the money was invested by Councilor Wang, so he smiled wryly: "You wait a minute, I will immediately ask someone to call 1 million." ”
Fang Zheng was a little angry, threw the soldering iron in his hand on the maintenance table, and said angrily: "If you have nothing to do, come and learn to repair your mobile phone with me, don't make fun of me all day long." ”
Pang Xiaonan said with a hippie smile on his face: "Senior brother, don't be impatient, I really didn't make fun of you, right away, right away, right away, let me make a call, just one minute, one minute...... " Pang Xiaonan gestured with a 1 gesture and immediately dialed Peng Yuyan's phone.
"Hey, Brother Peng, I'm Pang Xiaonan, I'm sorry, something is wrong with me here, please call me 1 million, ah yes, 1 million, I'll explain to you when I go back, or you can deduct it directly from my investment money, okay, thank you, I'm sorry." Pang Xiaonan winked at Fang Zheng while talking on the phone.
Fang Zheng was silent, staring at Pang Xiaonan with a gloomy face, watching him perform.
Pang Xiaonan hung up the phone, looked at Fang Zheng with a smile, and said, "Wait a while." ”
Just less than 2 seconds after Pang Xiaonan finished speaking, "Ding Dong", Pang Xiaonan's mobile phone rang, Pang Xiaonan opened the falcon and saw that 1 million had arrived, he was busy showing the mobile phone screen to Fang Zheng, Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then snorted coldly: "Don't fool me with this kind of trick, I also know the production of this interface." ”
Pang Xiaonan was anxious and asked Fang Zheng, "How can you trust me?"
Fang Zheng silently looked at Pang Xiaonan for 3 seconds and said, "It's very simple for me to believe you, you transfer the 1 million to my flying falcon." ”
Pang Xiaonan immediately picked up his mobile phone and looked for Fang Zheng in the Falcon address book, but he didn't have a Fang Falcon anymore, so he said to Fang Zheng: "Come, let's add friends." ”
Fang Zheng took out his mobile phone and added friends to Pang Xiaonan, and then Pang Xiaonan operated on the mobile phone for a while, "Didi", Fangzheng's flying falcon received a message, he opened it and took a look, and the dialog box showed "Pang Xiaonan transferred 1000000 to you".
Fang Zheng looked at his mobile phone, then at Pang Xiaonan, then at Pang Xiaonan, then at his mobile phone, and solemnly counted a few zeros behind 1, confirmed several times in a row, helped his glasses, and pointed to the transfer information that day with trembling fingers, "Didi", the flying falcon rang again, prompting "1000000 has been deposited into your wallet".
Now, it was Fang Zheng's turn to be dumbfounded, he opened the flying falcon's wallet and confirmed it again, that's right, Pang Xiaonan did transfer 1 million to him just now, and the 1 million was lying quietly in his e-wallet.
Fang Zheng put down his mobile phone, looked at Pang Xiaonan suspiciously, and asked, "Where did you get so much money? It's only been a few days, where did you go to raise 1 million?"
"This ......" Pang Xiaonan didn't know how to answer for a while, if he told Fang Zheng that this was the money he earned from gambling stones, I was afraid that it would be even more difficult to explain.
"Don't tell me," Fang Zheng was a little anxious, "This is your organ ...... selling" Fang Zheng pointed to Pang Xiaonan's waist, "Pang Xiaonan, Pang Xiaonan, why don't you take care of your body like this? Money can be earned slowly, the body is the capital of the revolution, how can you sell your body for a little money?" Fang Zheng would never believe that Pang Xiaonan raised 1 million through legitimate means, because a few days ago, this kid bought the worst second-hand mobile phone because of lack of money, and he was wearing tatters, how could he get 1 million at once.
