Chapter 416

Since Wu Feng finally praised Zhu Yushen, Zhu Yushen was in a better mood after returning home and before dinner in the evening.
It was also because this compliment was rare. Before the holiday, he did not enjoy this kind of treatment in his workplace. His colleagues in the school seemed to be deliberately avoiding this topic, which made him feel a little disappointed.
At around six o'clock in the evening, Xiao Rong came back with several of her colleagues. Since Zhu Yushen had been well prepared before, everyone started drinking beer and eating as soon as they arrived.
During this process, the guests came and talked nonsense, but for a long time no one mentioned that this meal was held to celebrate something. During this period, Xiao Rong mentioned her husband's joining the Writers' Association several times.
But he was immediately distracted by other people talking about other topics.
This made Zhu Yushen feel quite disappointed because when Xiao Rong asked him to go to the supermarket to buy food, she made it clear that her friend came to congratulate him on this good deed.
But now they just talk desperately about trivial things during the banquet, and occasionally laugh, but in fact there is nothing worth laughing about. Or someone lowers his head, fiddles with his mobile phone for a long time, interrupts the chat at will, etc.
wait.
All this made Zhu Yushen feel very uncomfortable. He finished his meal hastily, stopped accompanying him, and retreated to his room to read and write.
After the party was over, Xiao Rong came into the room and said, "Don't be unhappy. My colleagues are used to this. People nowadays only care about their own little things and want others to give you praise.
It’s not easy. Basically, you have to exchange the likes you have given them, but you have never liked them before.”
Zhu Yushen said: "Why do I need them to praise me? I just feel that my lifestyle is very different from theirs, so I don't want to interfere too much. I go to the room to do other things."
Xiao Rong said: "That's good! Actually, it's not easy for everyone to get together because we are usually very busy.
You are already on vacation. Do you want to go back to Huangzhen to meet up with your brothers? You haven’t contacted or seen Jin Jun for a long time, right? I don’t know if his wife has given birth to a child. He is a quick talker.
Straight, quite interesting.”
After Xiao Rong reminded him, Zhu Yushen's eyes seemed to light up, and he realized that he had always felt that life was boring during this period, maybe because he lacked Jin Jun, a stupid person who was talking nonsense. So he nodded at Xiao Rong.
He nodded and said thank you to my wife for the kind reminder.
So after Xiao Rong left the room, Zhu Yushen called Jin Jun, and the two chatted for more than half an hour.
Jin Jun said that he moved back to the county town during this period because his wife Chen Jing was about to give birth and it was more convenient to live in the city. He was very fortunate that he had bought a house in the county town before, otherwise he might have lost everything. In the end, he
He said that he wasn't having much fun talking on the phone, and told Zhu Yushen to inform him the next time he came back that he was going to fight his way back to Huangzhen, and the two of them had to drink until they got drunk.
Two days later, before Xiao Rong went to work, she asked Zhu Yushen to go to the newly opened farmer's market in the east of the new district to buy more vegetables. She said that she heard from her neighbors that the market was offering a grand opening promotion, and the prices were always favorable when she went shopping two days ago.
After breakfast, Zhu Yushen took two large environmental bags and went there. He rode a bicycle for a while and spent a little time to get to that place.
The big market is indeed built in a grand style, and the inside looks very refreshing. However, the stalls are not full yet, and people are still importing equipment inside. Some of the stall owners who came in earlier have already started business.
Zhu Yushen stood outside the gate and observed for a while, then rode in. However, he was quickly stopped. When he looked back, a man wearing sunglasses and security uniforms walked towards him. The man said that the car could not enter.
The market gate needs to be pushed out and put in place as soon as possible.
Zhu Yushen had no choice but to turn the front of the car and push it out. At this time, the man took off his sunglasses, grinned and said, "Brother Zhu, you didn't recognize me, it's me Wu Bao! How about it, look at me like this
Still cooler, right?”
Zhu Yushen took a closer look and saw that it was really Wu Bao. He had a short haircut, and the security uniform looked quite impressive on him. In addition, he was wearing sunglasses just now, so he didn't recognize him.
The key is that the two of them haven't seen each other for a few days. I didn't expect that Wu Bao would change so much and take up this job.
Since Wu Bao asked this question, Zhu Yushen simply replied: "Oh, you are so handsome and cool! How can I recognize you? Why, how did you get into this job now?"
Wu Bao said: "Well, let me tell you slowly. You park the car outside the gate first, then sit for a while, and we can talk."
After a while, Wu Bao brought out a stool from the security booth next to the gate and asked Zhu Yushen to sit down. He stood beside him, shouting to maintain order and chatting with Zhu Yushen.
He said: "Brother, you may not have thought that now that I put on this suit of clothes, I look like a decent person; the main thing is that I can talk and curse people at all times, which is quite impressive.
To tell you the truth, Wu Feng was actually helping me behind the scenes. She is a rich woman from the local area and has a wide network of contacts. It was not a piece of cake to help me arrange this job.
Speaking of which, he may have felt sorry for me. Because before she and that old guy Lao Du broke up, she hinted to me that she could become a couple with me. But in the end, she dumped me aside and started looking for her again.
A rich and cultured man.
She felt that she felt sorry for me, so she helped me find this job. Although the income was not high, it was not bad. It was much better and more decent than me doing a small business collecting scraps.
Therefore, I did not fall out with her, and I continued to help her manage the tenants of the house where I lived, so that she could collect the rent with peace of mind.
Oh, by the way, Brother Zhu, please also give me some of your calligraphy and painting, your calligraphy. My level has improved now, and I also want to hang some calligraphy and painting on the wall of the rented house. It will look good and tasteful.
Last time we helped Wu Feng install so many of your calligraphy works, and they were very good in her new house. I asked you to give me some more and bring them over tomorrow!"
The tone in which Wu Bao was speaking now made Zhu Yushen sound a little uncomfortable, but he thought it was no wonder, because Wu Bao felt that he had done well now, so he was confident and proud.
He said: "Of course it's okay to give you some calligraphy and paintings, as long as you like them. However, the ones I gave to Wu Feng last time were framed by her herself. She said they were very high-end and cost a lot.
