Ode to joy

Chapter 148

Finally, he sent Qu Xiaoxiao an offer, and then sent a text message to Fan Shengmei to report that the offer had been made. Wang Baichuan looked back and saw that his grandparents were already dozing off in the lobby of the hotel. His parents had no place to sit and were shaking from exhaustion.When Wang Baichuan asked his parents to get in the car, he received a text message from Fan Shengmei telling him to go to bed later and wait for Qu Xiaoxiao to reply.Wang Baichuan looked at this text message without tenderness, and pouted his lips.

Qu Xiaoxiao laughed out loud when she received the offer. Sure enough, as long as she got through with Sister Fan, Wang Baichuan could always be cured, even if it was a time like New Year's Eve that was not suitable for business.She gave the quotation to the customer, who was very interested, and confirmed the specifications with Qu Xiaoxiao, and paid a check, requesting that the samples be shipped by air within the deadline.

Qu Xiaoxiao pulled out the next battle, regardless of fatigue, and immediately moved to the next one.As long as the business is successful, she is always full of energy. She can handle jet lag and sleep for eight hours. Half a year ago, she stayed up for three days and three nights just to play.On the train, she sent a text message to her parents, using the progress of the business as a New Year gift to her parents.Then, she found a handsome guy winking at her.

Qu Xiaoxiao never refuses handsome guys.Although she has the dearest Dr. Zhao, it does not prevent her from flirting with the handsome blond guy.

When the final result was sent to Wang Baichuan's mobile phone, Wang Baichuan hurriedly called Fan Shengmei to report.At this time, Wang Baichuan had already arrived home, and there was still a water and land meeting outside Fan's house, which was very lively.When Fan Shengmei heard this, she said irritably, "That's good. Take a two-day rest and hurry to watch the factory produce samples. Good luck in the new year. Be more conscious in the future, and don't wait for me to remind you."

Wang Baichuan choked, and then he heard the noise on the other end of the phone, "What's wrong with you? It's so noisy."

"My brother-in-law and mother-in-law called to ask for money, but I ignored them. What else can I do, and I can't rush out to fight."

"Oh. I'll help you over there."

"Don't come here, bad luck. Take care of yourself, as long as you don't need to worry about things, I can deal with them here. Don't come here, these people are all bad luck, and they can't affect your luck next year. They are already tired, I think They can't hold on for long, so don't make troubles."

Under Fan Shengmei's unquestionable authority, Wang Baichuan dared not go over.After a while, Fan Shengmei called and she left.Fan Shengmei really wanted to cry, but no.She forced a smile, and with a forced smile, she greeted the arrival of the New Year during the phone call with Wang Baichuan.

The sound of firecrackers at zero o'clock was like frying beans. It was lively for half an hour before it gradually subsided.However, Fan Shengmei didn't dare to go to bed after finishing the call with Wang Baichuan. She turned on the TV and flicked through the channels indiscriminately, so as not to feel wronged and want to cry when she calmed down by herself.But she couldn't concentrate on the TV no matter what, she turned her head around, and finally her eyes fell on her parents' bedroom.Fan Shengmei couldn't help asking herself, apart from the fact that the relatives who helped take care of her father needed to rest during the Spring Festival, Lei Lei couldn't go to school during the winter vacation and needed someone to take care of her at home, so she had to ask for leave to go home early to help her mother with work, otherwise, why did she rush? Going home during the Spring Festival, what attraction does this home have for her?She can also work during the Spring Festival like Andy and Qu Xiaoxiao. Not only is she favored by her boss, but she can also earn double salary during holidays.But she was burdened too much, and she had no choice in her life.

Exhausted, Fan Shengmei fell asleep for a while, until she was woken up by Lei Lei's icy little hand stuck into her neck.She felt as if she had only slept for a while, but when she turned on her phone, it was already ten o'clock in the morning.After getting out of bed, Mom had already cleaned up Dad and Lei Lei, and there was breakfast for her on the table.Although the price of breakfast is not expensive, the pasta can be made in a variety of colors, revealing the joy of the festival.Fan Shengmei couldn't help looking at her mother's face that had aged a lot in the past six months, and then at Lei Lei's fat face that had shrunk slightly in the past six months, and sighed in her heart.She can't ignore her family.

The mobile phone received many text messages of blessings, and all the sisters on the 22nd floor sent text messages, even Qu Xiaoxiao.

Fan Shengmei eats with text messages, and reads one by one, these text messages give her warmth.

No one came to Fan's house to pay New Year's greetings, lest the Fan's family would complain and ask for money.Fan Shengmei also prevents Fan's mother from going out to pay New Year's greetings, so as not to be looked down upon.After breakfast, I started to prepare lunch for the first day of the new year.When I opened the refrigerator, there was nothing to show for it. How could I buy decent New Year's goods with the few money sent out every week.Fan Shengmei simply led Lei Lei, stepped on the bicycle and went to the nearby supermarket to buy vegetables.She doesn't earn much and can't satisfy her family's needs, but she can buy a few more catties of meat and fish to improve her life and supplement her nutrition.In the supermarket, whenever Fan Shengmei throws a piece of food into the shopping cart, Lei Lei always cheers, just like Xi'er dancing for a red-headed rope.Fan Shengmei feels sorry for him, what kind of life is this called.

In the early morning of the third day of the first lunar month, Fan Shengmei sent a text message to Wang Baichuan in bed, reminding him that he could arrange to go to the factory to catch samples.

Fan Shengmei originally thought that Wang Baichuan could only reply to the text messages very late, and that guy had a rest these days, so he could sleep in.Unexpectedly, the text message was quickly replied. Wang Baichuan said that he wanted to see her very much, and agreed to meet at the gate of the middle school.Fan Shengmei also wanted to see Wang Baichuan, so they happened to meet and talk.She offered to meet at ten.At that hour, she had already helped her mother with the housework, and she didn't have to start lunch for the time being.

Unexpectedly, Fan Shengmei arrived at the gate of the middle school on time, and a serious middle-aged woman met her.The middle-aged woman opened her mouth and asked, "Are you Wang Baichuan's middle school classmate Fan Shengmei? I am Wang Baichuan's mother. I sent the text message. I want to meet you."

Fan Shengmei was shocked, but also aware of what was about to happen.She squeezed out a standard professional smile and said, "Happy New Year, Auntie."

The Queen Mother looked at Fan Shengmei carefully, making Fan Shengmei uncomfortable. "Xiaofan, I only have one son. I don't have high requirements for being a mother. I don't want my son to be famous. I just want my son to live a comfortable life. I just found out about your family. Xiaofan, you are so beautiful, there are many rich people out there who will help you support your family , my son’s career has just started, and I can’t afford to support your family. If you and my son are wronged, my son will suffer forever, and both sides will suffer. Why bother. Please let my son go. What do you want? Mention, I will try my best to be satisfied."

Fan Shengmei was speechless.She thought of these words earlier than the Queen Mother.So she doesn't feel hurt, this is the reality, it's just that she concealed it before, but now that the queen mother has uncovered the scars, at most she is a little embarrassed, a little angry, and more powerless.She thought for a while, and said: "There is only one request. You go home and tell your son, and I will stop bothering your son. I don't want to harm him, and I hope he is well. Goodbye."

Fan Shengmei turned her head and left.Even if she heard what the Queen Mother said behind her back, she could still hear it vaguely and not clearly, and her hearing suddenly became abnormally poor.

While walking, Fan Shengmei suddenly grinned and kicked away the firecracker on the ground. "******!" she cursed.Other than that, there is still nothing to say.Just walked home with a smirk all the way, shoulders straight.

From the first day of the new year to the third day of the new year, Guan Juer followed his parents around to pay New Year's greetings and have wedding banquets.Everyone was very curious about Guan Juer's work, and they chatted about many questions when they sat down.But Guan Juer almost didn't need to say a word, her mother answered everything for her with the help of her father.She usually called home almost every other day. It turned out that her parents had kept them in mind, and they all came in handy at this time.Guan Juer only needs to sit on the same single sofa with his mother and smile behind his mother to complete the task.

Guan Juer didn't have free time until he finished lunch at a relative's house.While playing online, she habitually sent text messages asking Qiu Yingying what she was up to.But Qiu Yingying called Guan Juer generously, and told Guan Juer with her tongue out that she was busy eating and eating, big fish, big meat and big wine, and after eating, she pulled out the karaoke machine and karaoke with relatives at home, the house was so lively .Guan Ju'er knows that Qiu Yingying has been saving money deliberately recently, but now she seems to be drunk, and when she wakes up and finds that her mobile phone is roaming and long-distance, she has to worry about the phone bill.So Guan Juer consciously forcibly interrupted Qiu Yingying's chatter and ended the call.It turned out that Qiu Yingying had a very happy Spring Festival.

The text message to Fan Shengmei has no reply.Guan Ju'er didn't care, and continued to read Weibo one by one.Qu Xiaoxiao’s pictures are from various places, train stations one after another, countless handsome guys, and countless selfies of Qu Xiaoxiao, most of the time she wears business attire, she looks like a dog, but Guan Juer knows that Qu Xiaoxiao Xiao has a stomach full of bad water.Andy has also updated Weibo diligently these days, but just like herself, it is difficult to see who she is and what background she has from Weibo.Andy's Weibo is all about simple and functional Swedish design.Only those who are familiar with her can see from the pictures that these designs are to her taste.

Guan Juer really wanted to go out to play, but there was a dinner tonight, so she had to eat with her parents.She ate until her mouth was blistered.The genius was darkened, and her mother had already urged her to change out of her home clothes and prepare to leave.Guan Juer uploaded a message on Weibo, "I'm so bored, eat every day, eat every day, every joke has been repeated three times, I still have to eat and talk about it." But she didn't resist, If you don't do these boring things, how can it be called the Spring Festival?

Sitting in father's car, Fan Shengmei's text message reply came slowly. "Busy with housework every day, relatives disappear, but it's quiet. Instead, I have a lot of time to read and watch TV, only to find that there are many stars on the screen whose names I can't name. I have fallen behind."

This time it was Guan Juer's turn to call, "Sister Fan, have you started cooking dinner yet? What do you want to eat?"

"I didn't expect the vegetable market to be so lively during the Spring Festival. I used to think that only supermarkets were open during the Spring Festival. I took Lei Lei out for shopping in the afternoon and bought a lot of vegetables. In the evening, I made tiger skin quail eggs and roasted elbows. Now that the oil pan was on, I fried them again. A plate of eggplant boxes. Hehe."

"It's really capable. I also want to learn how to cook, but my mother won't let me because the kitchen is too small to accommodate the second person. In fact, I only occupy a lot of space, and I can also help. Anyway, I have a treat at my house tomorrow, and I don't need it." To do things, as long as the guests come to buy a few bouquets of flowers and reinsert the flowers in the vase."

After hearing this, Guan's mother was dissatisfied and said: "If you are willing to cook, I will let you cook the whole table tomorrow. I am happy to ignore it. You father and daughter can only play tricks, who is willing to do housework?"

Guan Ju'er sticks out his tongue and doesn't resist.But secretly cover the phone to prevent mother's voice from being heard.

Fan Shengmei said: "It's not me who cooks. You know how to arrange flowers? I've learned it too, but I live in a rented house. People can't move around and can't apply what they've learned. Does it look like the ancients learned the art of slaying dragons? I'm so ambitious."

Guan Juer listened and laughed, "What is the art of slaying the dragon? I will always use it in the future, and it will be soon." Guan Juer laughed as he talked, because he heard that Wang Baichuan planned to buy a house in the middle of this year, and that was not an obvious sign. what.But Guan Juer didn't make it clear. "I miss you so much. Xiaoqiu drank too much at noon, and his voice on the phone was unrestrained. As soon as Xiaoqu woke up, she would post on Weibo the handsome guy she met last night, so she wouldn't be afraid that her boyfriend would be jealous. Andy's side was also early in the morning. Actually breakfast is all kinds of shells. Now I heard Sister Fan’s voice again, today is so perfect. Sister Fan is cooking at night... Uh, what’s wrong with you, Sister Fan?”

Guan Juer vaguely heard sobbing from the other end of the phone.It turns out that Fan Shengmei has been so strong since the beginning of the year to the third year of junior high school, and now, she was moved by the familiar warmth on the 22nd floor, and couldn't bear it anymore. Her emotions were like a broken dam, accompanied by tears pouring down.Guan Juer had nothing to do except to call out to Sister Fan, Fan Shengmei just cried and didn't say what wronged her, Guan Juer had no way to persuade her.

When Guan Juer's family arrived at their destination, Fan Shengmei hadn't stopped crying.Guan Juer could only let her parents go up first, and she stood downstairs crying with Fan Shengmei.

After all, Fan Shengmei didn't stop crying, she wasn't Qiu Yingying, she soon regained her sense of reason, she stopped crying, choked up and said: "Xiao Guan, please don't talk about today's matter, especially don't tell Xiao Qiu, Xiao Qiu If you can’t keep your mouth shut, you’ll leak it outside the 22nd floor.”

"Yes, Sister Fan, I won't tell anyone." Guan Ju'er vaguely realized that Fan Shengmei didn't want Wang Baichuan to know about it, "Please also think about it, there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome, time may be the easiest to solve all problems .”

"Yeah. The longer I live, the more I believe in fate. Xiao Guan, go ahead and don't let my affairs affect your mood."

"Okay. Sister Fan, you must think about Kuanli. I will keep my phone on all the time. You can send text messages and call me at any time."

But after the call ended, Guan Juer was very uneasy.What happened over there made Fan Shengmei cry bitterly in front of her, it was so abnormal, it must not be a simple housework.But she dared not call Wang Baichuan.Could it be related to Wang Baichuan?Guan Juer is really worried about Fan Shengmei's state.The only consolation is that it is better to cry than not to cry.

After Fan Shengmei finished crying, she wiped away her tears and didn't even eat dinner. She resolutely went to her relatives who helped her to discuss that they would come to help tomorrow.Before the seventh day, the wages doubled every day.Relatives agreed.It can be seen that a large part of the world's problems can be solved with money.During this time, Wang Baichuan sent a text message, saying that he was having dinner with some business friends and that he might get drunk tonight.It can be seen from the text message that his mother hasn't talked to her son yet.

After Wang Bochuan was drunk, he didn't dare to call Fan Shengmei to blame him, but he sent text messages one after another, expressing countless thoughts and love.Fan Shengmei only looked at it but didn't look back, and later on she didn't even look at it, she just focused on packing her luggage.Tomorrow, she plans to go to the train station early in the morning, buy a ticket and leave.Might as well go back to work and be quiet.Someone in the team was scheduled to work overtime during the Spring Festival. She was depressed because of this, and she was willing to take over the shift.

After packing her luggage, Fan Shengmei picked up her phone and deleted Wang Baichuan's text messages one by one.Only to find out that Guan Juer also sent a text message at ten o'clock.In the text message, I leisurely listed a few special dishes I ate tonight, and finally asked "How is Sister Fan?"Fan Shengmei's eyes were moist again.Only then did I realize that this girl kept a slight distance from others on weekdays, but she was thoughtful and warm in her heart.Fan Shengmei replied with a straight line, "I feel uncomfortable, and I plan to go back to Haishi tomorrow. Everything at home is out of sight. You don't have to worry about me, I won't be overwhelmed. Good night, go to bed early. I will go to bed early too, and I will be on my way tomorrow. .”

Guan Ju'er was already lying on the bed at this time, and was awakened by a text message in a daze. When he opened it, he felt that there was infinite sadness behind just a few words.She could even guess that when Fan Shengmei appeared on the empty 22nd floor tomorrow night, and opened the door with the echo of footsteps, only darkness and coldness greeted her.That's not heartbreakingly cool.She will remember to call and text Fan Shengmei from time to time tomorrow.

Fan Shengmei dragged her luggage and left home before dawn, but her mother didn't say anything, and Lei Lei cried earth-shatteringly.

She spends money to buy delicious food and drink at home these days, and Lei Lei was bought by her so quickly.

There is still residual snow in the corners, which looks dark and dirty during the day, but in the morning with the light of the sky, the snow looks beautiful.Amidst Lei Lei's cries, Fan Shengmei left home crunching on the broken ice. No one picked her up. She struggled to drag her suitcase to the station by herself, and boarded the empty bus into the city.It was very cold in the car, Fan Shengmei wrapped her scarf tightly and stared out the window in a daze.

Gradually, the sky brightened.The scenery outside the car window became clear, and there were slightly more people in the car.But those have nothing to do with Fan Shengmei.Fan Shengmei is busy fleeing.

I was very lucky, because it was only the fourth day of junior high school, and the train to Haishi had a ticket and a seat.At this time, Wang Baichuan's phone call was long overdue.

"Ha, Katsumi, I just woke up and the sun was shining on the head of the bed. I forgot to draw the curtains last night, and the sun dazzled my eyes. Did I send you a lot of text messages last night? I drank too much, I'm sorry I'm sorry , No nonsense. When I drink too much, my heart is full of you, no, I must see you today. Tell me a time, let's go to the city for lunch, I miss you to death."

Fan Shengmei sighed heavily, "I'm on the train, and I'm going back to Haishi."

"What's the matter, did I talk nonsense when I was drunk last night, um, give me a chance to talk, don't get in the car. Or I'll block you at the next stop."
