Rebirth begins with marrying an educated youth

Chapter 158 It’s still this pot

Could it be that this kid Ji Yuanhai, instead of being reckless, is actually a genius?
Professor Zhu thought to himself.

People with good family backgrounds like Feng Xue, generally speaking, are definitely not willing to let others go against their own ideas, so they are naturally blessed.

This is indeed the case, and it is impossible not to recognize this rule.

However, sometimes this is not always the case.

Precisely because there are no disobedient people around, I feel that friends are rare. Therefore, what matters when making friends is not obedience, but sincere communication and communication.

Professor Zhu now suspects that the young man Ji Yuanhai is using this idea to trick Feng Xue into making friends with her in order to get more help.

However, is this possible?

Professor Zhu thought about it carefully and felt that if Ji Yuanhai was really deliberate, then he might really succeed.

This inevitably made Professor Zhu feel a little uncomfortable.

He and his daughter went into battle together, taking turns to please Feng Xue, just to make Feng Xue feel more comfortable.Then all he wanted was a little favor from Feng Xue in exchange for smooth sailing in the school.

With Ji Yuanhai's method, Feng Xue may be regarded as a friend and get higher returns; and there is no need to pay close attention to Feng Xue's happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy all the time.

The gap here is a bit too big.

"Ji Yuanhai, do you feel you understand Feng Xue better?" Professor Zhu asked.

Ji Yuanhai nodded: "It's pretty good."

"Then can you tell me what kind of person Feng Xue is?" Professor Zhu asked.

Ji Yuanhai smiled: "Teacher, how can you ask such a topic? The two of us are talking about her behind her back... Is this okay?"

Professor Zhu suddenly smiled awkwardly: "Yes, yes, Ji Yuanhai, you are right to remind us that we should not talk about classmate Feng Xue behind her back."

"As for the debate competition, I won't force any results. As long as both you and Feng Xue are satisfied."

"Okay, teacher." Ji Yuanhai nodded, "Do you have anything else to do?"

Professor Zhu originally wanted to wave him away, but suddenly thought that he must be quite scheming, so he came up with the idea of ​​​​testing it one last time - did Ji Yuanhai deliberately make friends with Feng Xue, so he pretended to treat Feng Xue so casually? Or is it because Ji Yuanhai and Feng Xue have made friends that they can be so casual?
If it is the former, then both Professor Zhu and Zhu Fangfang can try to change their strategies and try to have a better relationship with Feng Xue.

If it's the latter, then Professor Zhu will have to give up. If he doesn't follow suit, it will only cause unhappiness.

"Ji Yuanhai, what are your likes and hobbies? Can you tell the teacher?" Professor Zhu asked.

Ji Yuanhai smiled: "Teacher, why do you ask me this question?"

"I'm curious. After all, you are an excellent student I teach and you are very smart..." Professor Zhu said, "I also want to know more about you."

"I hope you won't use general words like saying you like sports or reading to talk to me... I want to know your true hobbies."

Ji Yuanhai smiled: "But, teacher, I really like sports and reading."

"What about other than that?" Professor Zhu asked.

"Other than that, basically nothing." Ji Yuanhai said.

"No more? You must still have it, right? For example, I like to play with some flowers and plants sometimes..." Professor Zhu said.

Ji Yuanhai nodded: "It's true, Professor Zhu, the flowers and plants you grow are quite beautiful."

Professor Zhu secretly scolded this little naughty guy, but he felt more and more that he should be more calculating. Feng Xue seemed to have made a good friend, but it was probably all part of Ji Yuanhai's calculations.

On the surface, he chuckled and said, "Really? You see the flowers I planted are beautiful, that's why you like them."

"You have a hobby because you like it..."

As he spoke, Professor Zhu gestured to Ji Yuanhai to look at the Clivia he planted: "Looking at this pot of Clivia, do you feel like you have another hobby?"

Ji Yuanhai chuckled: "It's true, teacher, you are really good at discovering the beauty of life."

Professor Zhu saw that his hands were slippery and he had no intention of having a heart-to-heart conversation with him.

There are some things that I have a guess in my mind, and they are basically the truth.

"Okay, Ji Yuanhai, since you have an extra hobby today, I have to celebrate with you." Professor Zhu said, "I just gave you this pot of clivia. I hope you will be a humble gentleman in the future."

After hearing this, Ji Yuanhai said in his heart: This old fox tried me but failed, and scolded me for being too narrow-minded. Isn't he a magnanimous gentleman?
He declined Professor Zhu in his mouth: "Teacher, you said you wanted me to be a gentleman, but I remember that a gentleman does not take away others' love."

"I still don't want this potted flower."

"Hey, that's not right. This is the teacher's expectation and gift to you. How can you refuse?" Professor Zhu said, "Accept it quickly."

After Ji Yuanhai pushed it back and forth with him several times, he finally accepted the pot of Clivia.

Lu Heling, Feng Xue, Zhu Fangfang, and Qiu Jialu were all surprised when they took Clivia to the cafeteria for dinner.

"Yuan Hai, why did you bring a pot of flowers?" Lu Heling asked.

Could it be said that flowers are also sold in provincial universities?

Feng Xue also said: "What kind of trick is this?"

Ji Yuanhai said: "Professor Zhu gave this to me."

Lu Heling, Feng Xue, and Qiu Jialu all felt strange: Was it given by the professor?What does it mean?
Zhu Fangfang was even more surprised: "My dad gave this to you? Doesn't he like to raise some flowers and plants? Why did he suddenly give you this?"

Ji Yuanhai smiled and said: "Professor Zhu asked me what my hobbies were. I said I didn't have any hobbies. He said he would help me cultivate one, and gave me this pot of Clivia he planted himself."

"Speaking of this, I really have to thank Professor Zhu for taking me seriously."

"Oh, so that's what happened." Feng Xue nodded suddenly, "I didn't expect Professor Zhu to value you so much and even care about your life and hobbies."

Lu Heling also smiled after hearing this, and was very happy that Ji Yuanhai was valued by the teacher.

Only Zhu Fangfang was puzzled.

It's strange - Feng Xue complained to me yesterday that he didn't become Yi Bian. After I told my dad, today my dad should persuade Ji Yuanhai to change Yi Bian to Feng Xue.

Why didn't Ji Yuanhai tell Feng Xue about this and instead brought back a pot of flowers from my dad?

What does my dad think about this matter?

Zhu Fangfang also felt puzzled.

After thinking for a while, Zhu Fangfang decided to test it out: "Ji Yuanhai? Have the debate contestants in your class been decided?"

"Why did I hear Feng Xue say that you arranged a position for her in the third debate?"

"Isn't that a little unfair?"

Ji Yuanhai smiled and said: "Isn't it fair? I think it's quite fair."

"She should be happy if I give her three defenses, otherwise I will give her five defenses..."

Feng Xue said dissatisfied: "Nonsense, this time each team plays four, how can there be five arguments?"

"Yes, there is no five arguments, so you will be disqualified directly." Ji Yuanhai said with a smile.

Feng Xue laughed out of anger and stretched out her hand to hit him, but it was inconvenient to stand between Zhu Fangfang and Lu Heling, so she could only stare.

When Zhu Fangfang saw the two of them laughing and joking, Ji Yuanhai had no intention of turning Feng Xue into Yi Bian, and felt extremely strange in her heart.

How is this going?

In the afternoon, Zhu Fangfang found Professor Zhu and asked what was going on.

Professor Zhu analyzed for her the difference between "please Feng Xue" and "be friends with Feng Xue", and by the way, Ji Yuanhai was a little slippery.

Only then did Zhu Fangfang understand what was going on.

"Then let's learn from Ji Yuanhai and change our attitude towards Feng Xue? Then Feng Xue will become closer to us?"

Professor Zhu shook his head: "I feel that I am not very optimistic."

"The relationship between Ji Yuanhai and Feng Xue has been like this from the beginning. They have never tried to please Feng Xue. Now that we have suddenly changed our attitudes, we are on both sides."

"Shall I try it during dinner?" Zhu Fangfang came up with an idea.

"It's okay to give it a try," Professor Zhu said. "When you see something bad, give in immediately, but don't let people really alienate you."

Zhu Fangfang nodded: "Yes, Dad, I know."

"And that potted flower... why did you give it to Ji Yuanhai? Don't you really like it?"

Professor Zhu chuckled: "I like flowers? Do you really think I do?"

"Tell Ji Yuanhai to test his level. The potted flower is just a pretext."

"Give it to him. Do we still need a pot of flowers?"

"Well, dad, I understand when you say that." Zhu Fangfang praised smoothly, "You are really cunning."

"What's that?" Professor Zhu laughed.

When it was time for dinner, Zhu Fangfang led Feng Xue and suddenly said: "Feng Xue, how about we try the braised eggplant in oil today?" Feng Xue said: "Forget it, the oil is too much and I don't like it."

"But I like to eat, let's just eat this." Zhu Fangfang said with a smile.

Feng Xue looked at her in surprise: "If you like it, you can eat it."

After finishing speaking, he took his lunch box and went to the other side to get some food.

There is no way to learn from the experience of Era Sea!
Zhu Fangfang quickly made up her mind and quickly followed Feng Xue: "After thinking about it, I decided not to eat it. The braised eggplant made by my mother is delicious, but the one made in the cafeteria is not delicious."

Feng Xue didn't care, after all, she had learned to "make friends" now, and she echoed.

"Yes, the food cooked by aunt is indeed delicious."

"Really?" Zhu Fangfang smiled, "Go to my house for dinner this weekend and try my mother's cooking?"

"Let's talk about it when we have time," Feng Xue said.

Zhu Fangfang's smile continued: "Well, that's fine."

The next day, the topic and order of the debate competition were initially determined.

Ji Yuanhai, Feng Xue and others began to prepare relevant information and consider how to refute the opponent in a reasonable way.

Of course, unless the advantage gap is really too big and obvious, the essence of a debate competition is often that both parties "talk hard" and insist on their own opinions.

As a first-class institution in the country, Provincial University is also capable of asking questions, and it will not ask questions that clearly mean one side can give up the competition.

"Seriously, you should let me be the one to defend you."

Feng Xue said to Ji Yuanhai: "You always look like you are lukewarm. Except for Lu Heling when you got angry, most of the time you talk with a smile. When you argue, you can't make a deep impression on others. It is a kind of Disadvantage."

"Then being attacked like you and then being incompetent and furious is not a disadvantage?" Ji Yuanhai asked back.

Feng Xue was so angry at the words "incompetent and furious".

This bastard Ji Yuanhai has a mouth as poisonous as a snake!

I am "incompetent" and I am "furious"... How is this so appropriate and so infuriating?

"By the way, Feng Xue, did you tell Zhu Fangfang about the matter that you wanted to defend?"

Ji Yuanhai asked.

Feng Xue nodded: "Yes, what's wrong? Can't you tell me?"

"I can tell." Ji Yuanhai said, "Zhu Fangfang told Professor Zhu, and Professor Zhu talked to me and wanted me to change the list."

Feng Xue was a little surprised: "Oh? They are thoughtful, although they are a bit nosy."

Then asked Ji Yuanhai: "Have you changed it?"

Ji Yuanhai shook his head slightly: "No, I didn't agree,"

Feng Xue immediately snorted: "I knew it would be like this!"

Ji Yuanhai didn't say anything more about Professor Zhu and his daughter, so there was no need to say anything about it.

Feng Xue didn't object to Professor Zhu and his daughter's special efforts to please her, but she also knew in her heart why Zhu Fangfang came and whether she was her friend.

Returning to the dormitory, Ji Yuanhai saw roommates Sun Limin and Yang Jianguo standing in front of his Clivia, pointing and talking, and said with a smile: "You also like to plant flowers?"

"That's not true, we are discussing something." Sun Limin said, "In Journey to the West, Sun Wukong was knocked three times by the teacher, and he learned great magical powers from then on."

"Monitor, Professor Zhu gave you a pot of flowers. Do you also want to know some secrets?"

After hearing Sun Limin's words, Zhao Youtian and other roommates all raised their eyes and looked over.

Is this possible?

Ji Yuanhai found it funny: "Are you stupid because of reading? Professor Zhu can still teach me the 72 changes, soaring into the clouds and riding the mist?"

"No matter what you say to me, I have to learn knowledge steadily. Is there any shortcut?"

"That's true..." The roommates nodded one after another and focused on their books to study.

..................................................................

Over the weekend, Jiyuanhai once again opened Fangcaoxuan.

This time, there was a queue at the entrance of Fangcaoxuan - old customers felt that he didn't have much time to open the store, so they came as soon as possible. Some new customers came here because of the reputation, and some came to watch the excitement.

In this situation of rapid sales, Ji Yuanhai sold more than 1000 yuan of flowers and plants in one morning.

This put him in a pretty good mood.

If you keep this pattern going, you will make a lot of money.

In another year and a half, not to mention expanding the scale of business or other things, as long as you earn tens of thousands of dollars and buy some houses and shops, you will have the capital to move forward and retreat freely in the future.

Speaking of which, including the inheritance from Lu Heling's parents, Ji Yuanhai actually already has considerable capital.

However, he felt that this was not enough.

In the afternoon, Ji Yuanhai continued to sell flowers and plants. At about three o'clock, there was a sudden noise outside.

Ji Yuanhai was a little surprised and walked to the door.

Is it possible that the people in Flower and Bird Street who do business like this are still incompatible with each other and are still looking for trouble?

When I got to the door, I realized that it was a young man trying to jump in line.

"We've been waiting in line for so long! Why did you jump in line!"

"Yes, everything has a first-come, first-served basis!"

The young man was wearing a neat cadre uniform, holding a pot of Longchang orchid with yellow leaves, and said with a gloomy face: "Everyone, please do it for your convenience and show your spirit..."

Before he finished speaking, he was yelled at: "It's wrong for you to jump in line!"

"What kind of spirit are you promoting? You are neither old, weak, sick, or disabled, nor are you a female comrade. Why should we promote your spirit!"

The young man's face became even more ugly.

It took more than half a year for Ji Yuanhai to recognize who this young man was - once at a flower exhibition, a veteran cadre with a Sichuan accent bought a pot of Longchangsu back, and this young man was the one who accompanied him at the beginning.

He should be the grandson of a veteran cadre.

He is another young man with an extraordinary family background, and he seems to be working.

Ji Yuanhai said: "Everyone, please restore order and don't make any noise."

"That young comrade, I remember you, you bought the flowers from me."

The young man was a little surprised when he heard this, and then he said happily: "Yes, just remember me!"

Ji Yuanhai said: "This potted flower is a little bad now. Come in, put the flower down, and put it in the store. I will nurse it back to you for a week."

"Then you can pick it up again, okay?"

The young man asked: "How much does it cost?"

"No money is required. If you want to give it, you can give it. If you don't, forget it. Anyway, I will save you for free." Ji Yuanhai said.

The young man nodded, carried Longchang Sulanhua into Fangcaoxuan, and whispered to Ji Yuanhai: "The boss has quite an idea. Thank you for this idea!"

Hearing this, Ji Yuanhai couldn't help but smile: "It seems you really don't remember. You were just cooperating with me."

"I am the one who sold this pot of Longchangsu, don't you remember?"

The young man was startled when he heard this: "It's really you!"

He didn't remember Ji Yuanhai's appearance at all, so when Ji Yuanhai said this just now, he thought it was Ji Yuanhai who wanted to help him and made an excuse.

Therefore, I still feel that this boss is quite discerning.

Unexpectedly, what they said was not a lie at all - he really sold this pot of flowers.

"By the way, since you sold it, of course you are responsible." The young man said, "What happened to this pot of Longchangsu? How did it become like this?"

"The environment is different, and of course the growing conditions will also change." Ji Yuanhai said, "You put it here with me, come and get it next week, and I will give you a nice pot back then."

Hearing this, the young man frowned slightly: "I'm warning you, I don't want to be nice, I want this pot."

"You can't exchange flowers for this pot, you only need this pot. The elders in the family have said that you only need this pot and nothing else!"

Ji Yuanhai nodded: "Okay, just this pot."

"You'll know then."

"If your elders don't believe it, just bring him to my store and he will believe it."
