Pastoral Daily Life

Chapter 68: gratitude

    After Lu Lingxi got off work in the evening, he took Da Hei to the small restaurant.

    The store is doing well, and Wang Shuxiu is a little busy. Lu Lingxi washed his hands consciously to help. After being busy for a while, the number of customers in the store decreased significantly, and several people were relieved.

    Xiaohua Home Cooking Restaurant has become more and more famous in the neighborhood, and there are many repeat customers every day. Wang Shuxiu also understands that her craftsmanship is one thing, and the most important thing is that her ingredients are good. Taking advantage of the fact that there is no one there, Wang Shuxiu and Lu Lingxi talked about what to do in winter? The vegetables in the store are all purchased from the village. To put it bluntly, these vegetables are not specially grown and sold, that is, the villagers grow them in the yard for themselves to eat. Xiaqiu is not bad, it seems that it will be October soon, and in two months, it is estimated that the vegetables will not grow long when the weather is cold.

    Lu Lingxi wanted to talk to Wang Shuxiu about this before, but I almost forgot about it recently.

    "Mom, how about we contract a few acres of land to build a greenhouse to grow vegetables? It's right next to the flowerbed."

    Wang Shuxiu was a little hesitant, so the cost would be huge.

    "Will it work?"

    Lu Lingxi nodded, "Now the greenhouses for the flowerbeds have begun to be built, and they are all ready-made. I heard from Big Brother Yan that the progress is very fast, and it is not too much trouble to build an extra one next to me. The land in the village is usually deserted, and it is happier if someone rents it."

    Wang Shuxiu calculated the money in her hand, "Let me think about it."

    Lu Lingxi didn't speak, Yi Hang looked at him from a distance and winked at him, Lu Lingxi suddenly remembered what Yi Hang said in the text message, and looked around subconsciously.

    "What are you looking for?" Wang Shuxiu asked casually.

    "Brother Feng didn't come?"

    "What did he come for?"

    Lu Lingxi didn't realize what he said until he finished speaking, his eyes wandered and he didn't dare to look at Wang Shuxiu. Wang Shuxiu stared at him suspiciously, wondering in her heart that the little bunny heard some wind, right?

    "Tell me, why did you think of looking for Brother Feng?"

    Lu Lingxi faltered and couldn't speak, but Wang Shuxiu understood at a glance, angry and funny, reached out and slapped him. "I'm worried that I'll find you a stepfather? Don't worry, your mom, I just climbed out of the fire pit and didn't plan to jump again." She said this, but she thought that Lu Lingxi didn't think of something, and Lu Yishui or Lu Yishui Can't let go.

    Lu Lingxi didn't know that Wang Shuxiu had misunderstood, so he hesitated for a while before seriously saying: "Actually, it would be good for Mom to find another one."

    After sending Gao Yongliang away in the afternoon, Lu Lingxi pondered this question for a long time. What would the original Lu Lingxi think here? Lu Yishui is not good to Wang Shuxiu, and the original Lu Lingxi must also hope that Wang Shuxiu can be happy. Although he wants to take good care of Wang Shuxiu, his son and husband should still be different, just like Yan Yue and Wang Shuxiu are different to him.

    He was serious, but Wang Shuxiu was stunned for a moment, then laughed. "The little **** has a lot to worry about. Come on, don't worry about the adults, you're hungry, I'll cook something for you."

    As soon as Wang Shuxiu left, Yi Hang came over. "What do you say? You look like you are bitter and vengeful. By the way, what about Brother Yan?" Yi Hang was not used to Yan Yue sending Lu Lingxi over at night.

    Lu Lingxi took back his thoughts, found an empty table and sat down. "Brother Yan has something to do."

    Yi Hang was curious, "What does Brother Yan do? Why do you usually feel like he has nothing to do?"

    "Brother Yan has been on vacation recently." Lu Lingxi explained. Yan Yue rarely mentions family affairs, and Lu Lingxi doesn't know much. He only knows that Yan Yue is a member of the Yan family in Zhongjing. He worked hard to mobilize the barren memories of his previous life, and he couldn't remember too many things about the Yan family in Zhongjing. However, families like this are nothing more than strife. Lu Lingxi has heard Yan Yue's phone calls several times, and can feel that Yan Yue's home is not peaceful.

    Yi Hang did not think as much as he thought, and said with emotion, "It's good to have money."

    Lu Lingxi didn't speak, after thinking about it, he sent a text message to Yan Yue, "Brother Yan, have you had dinner yet?"

    Yan Yue's text message came back soon, "I've eaten, I'm a little busy now, dear, I'll call you at night."

    Yan Yue is really busy right now. Quickly replying to the text message, Yan Yue put down the phone and looked at the computer again. The expression on his face turned serious, "Go ahead, you just said that Gao Yongliang's project was invested by Sequoia?"

    Sequoia Investment is the same venture capital company as Dezhi Investment. As competitors, the two have dealt with each other several times before.

     "Not bad." The person who spoke was a middle-aged man who looked slightly fat in the video, named Dai Wei, who was the person in charge of Dezhi Investment. He quickly flipped through the information in his hand and affirmed: "Gao Yongliang's project did indeed attract Sequoia's investment, but Sequoia didn't pay much attention to his project and only gave a C rating, and because Gao Yongliang attracted investment There has been no specific action for nearly a year, and Sequoia seems to be a little dissatisfied and is considering divestment."

    Yan Yue tapped on the table a few times and instructed: "Find someone to do activities and find a way to facilitate Sequoia's divestment as soon as possible. We will follow up on this project."

    Although Dai Wei was mentally prepared when Yan Yue suddenly asked to investigate the progress of Gao Yongliang's project yesterday, he still had some concerns when he heard that Yan Yue planned to invest in this project. "Why? To be honest, I was really optimistic about this project at the beginning. However, considering Gao Yongliang's actions this year, I was a little worried. He wasted Sequoia's money for a year without bringing any benefits, and in the short term, There may not be any benefits, and I am not sure whether investing in this project is a correct decision. Of course you are the boss." After expressing his opinion, Dai Wei added a sentence as a summary at the right time.

    An Jie, who was sitting behind Yan Yue, was amused by the last sentence, and the probe gave Dai Wei a thumbs up. He also had concerns about this investment, and did not understand why Yan Yue suddenly turned up this project that they had killed.

    Dai Wei nodded to An Jie, Yan Yue pretended not to see their little gestures, and explained: "Although Gao Yongliang is a little picky in his work, it can also be said that he strives for perfection. Instead, I am optimistic about the product he is preparing to launch. Anyway, we will be involved in this project before the end of the month.”

    "No problem." Dai Wei assured that he was best at sabotage, especially his old enemy. The two sides reached a consensus, and Dai Wei felt that he had to go to sleep first. Anyone who works all day and night without sleep can't bear it. He was a little envious of An Jie and Yan Yue's jet lag now, so he didn't have to reverse black and white like him.

     Hanging up the video, Anjie put the well-stated financial statements in front of Yan Yue. "This is the working capital we can use at present. Since you rated Gao Yongliang's project as A-level, I suggest that we take at least 51% of the shares."

    "Of course." Yan Yue affirmed: "We must absolutely control this project. Let Dai Wei talk to Gao Yongliang."

    An Jie was a little curious, "Are you really just optimistic about this project? No other reason?"

    Yan Yue glared at him half-smile, "What do you want to say?"

    An Jie immediately changed the topic. "The house is almost finished, when are you going to move out?"

    Yan Yue frowned, thinking about moving out of the Yin family to announce the best time to go abroad for recuperation. During this time, he was the only one on Fengcheng's side, and both his grandfather and mother were in Zhongjing. Yin Ya's progress in Hepu was not very smooth. Her grandfather always disagreed with her entering Hepu. Without her grandfather's support, Yin Ya's development was difficult. However, this situation should be improved soon. My father's suppression of Yin Ya will only arouse my grandfather's sense of crisis and support Yin Ya instead.

    Yan Yue sometimes thinks Yin Ya is very stupid. Although his grandfather holds a similar share of shares as his father, he has already quit the operation of Hope for many years, and his influence in Hope is not as great as before. The current Hepu can almost be said to be the Hepu of the Yan family. Where did Yin Ya's confidence come from that his father would let an "outsider" take over the Hepu? For Yan Shihui, Yan Yue and Yan Hai are both his sons, and anyone who Hepu gives to him will rot in his own pot, but he will not give it to Yin Ya, and he will even try to suppress her idea.

    "I will go back to Beijing sometime." Yan Yue decided. Since he decided to retire, he will retire cleanly and wait for Yan Hai and Yin Ya to finish their fight.

    "Brother Yan, are you going back to Beijing?" Lu Lingxi got the news the next day, a little surprised.

    Yan Yue smiled slightly: "Xiao Xi is reluctant to let Big Brother Yan go?"

    Lu Lingxi was a little embarrassed, but nodded seriously.

    Yan Yue saw his appearance, his heart softened, and while no one touched his face, he explained: "I will stay for a few days when I go back, and come back soon. Don't go. The house in 202 is almost finished, Big Brother Yan will leave you a card, Xiaoxi, you can buy whatever you like, and decorate the house."

    Lu Lingxi was puzzled, "Shouldn't you arrange something that you like, Brother Yan?"

    Yan Yue's eyes darkened as he looked at him and said softly, "This is the home of Big Brother Yan and Xiaoxi. Of course, Xiaoxi's preference is the main thing."

    When he said this, Lu Lingxi's ears turned red, looking at Yan Yue and nodded.

    Yan Yue left as soon as he said it, and soon returned to Beijing with An Jie. Lu Lingxi was not used to being left alone in the store, holding Da Hei to count the days when Yan Yue came back.

    "Xiao Xi."

    "Grandma Wang." Lu Lingxi was very surprised, "Are you discharged?"

    Several people poured into Micro Gardening, in the middle was Grandma Wang, with two young people supporting her, and a few middle-aged men and women around, watching Lu Lingxi smiling kindly. "I've been discharged from the hospital." Grandma Wang said angrily: "It's just that the legs are still a little weak. Where's Da Hei? I brought him pork ribs, which were just steamed."

    Lu Lingxi was a little dazed, Grandma Wang laughed, "Xiaoxi, you're still hiding it, Grandma Wang already knows. If it weren't for the big black, Grandma Wang would still be confused and don't know who was hit by it. You kid, don't say anything good when you do good things." Grandma Wang pretended to complain, calling for the people around her to quickly take out the pork ribs that were steamed for Da Hei.

    Lu Lingxi didn't know how to face this situation, he thought that no one would know about the big black. Grandma Wang looked at Da Hei lovingly, one of her legs was still in plaster cast, she bent down and touched its head with some difficulty, and praised: "What a big black, Grandma Wang really wants to thank you."

    Da Hei seemed to understand her words, squinted and let out a low voice.

    Everyone in the room laughed. Grandma Wang's son, a tall and thin middle-aged man, looked at Lu Lingxi gratefully. "Xiaoxi, right? I really don't know how to thank you for this."

    Grandma Wang interjected, "Xiaoxi, your Uncle Wang's job is to deal with these flowers and plants. He is working in the Institute of Botany. If you have anything to do, just ask your Uncle Wang."

    Lu Lingxi's eyes lit up and nodded lightly.
