The person who opened the door was a woman in her forties. She glanced at Zhang Yang in surprise and said with a smile: "Miss Hong, you are back."
Hong Yaqin introduced: "Aunt Wang, this is my friend."
Zhang Yang stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, Aunt Wang."
Aunt Wang shook hands with Zhang Yang and said, "Please come in quickly. My husband and I have been waiting for a long time."
Hong Yaqin nodded and said, "Let's go!"
The two of them walked in. Aunt Wang closed the door behind her and glanced at the car parked in the yard, a little confused. After working as a nanny in the Hong family for so many years, this was the first time she saw such an ordinary car. She had never seen it before.
Audi was the one who came last. He shook his head with emotion. This young man's prospects were not very good.
Walking into the living room, Zhang Yang saw an old man with white hair sitting on the sofa. He had a round face and big eyes that were calm and powerful. He was very imposing. Sitting next to him was a kind-hearted middle-aged woman, looking at him with a smile.
From her eyebrows, you can vaguely see the shadow of Hong Yaqin's old age. If you guessed correctly, these should be Hong Yaqin's parents. Although she was a little confused as to why there was such a big age gap between the two, Zhang Yang did not pause and said first:
"Hello, uncle and aunt, my name is Zhang Yang and I am Yaqin's friend."
Mother Hong smiled and said: "Hello, Xiao Zhang, sit down quickly. Old man, say hello!"
Hong's father said with a cold face: "A boyfriend is a boyfriend, why do you say it so implicitly?"
Zhang Yang didn't know how to answer the question. Even though Hong Yaqin had just said that her father had a bad temper, Zhang Yang didn't expect such a situation.
Hong Yaqin glanced at the embarrassed Zhang Yang, smiled, sat down next to Hong's father, took Hong's arm and said: "You always ask me to bring my boyfriend back, and you have this attitude when I bring him back. I can't do this."
I won’t tell you anything anymore.”
Father Hong glared and said, "How dare you!"
"You tell me whether I dare to sit down with Zhang Yang. That's my father's temper. He is irritating me, not you." Hong Yaqin said.
Zhang Yang found that Hong Yaqin seemed to be several years younger when she returned home, like a little girl who had not grown up. She was not as strong and shrewd as when he saw her in the restaurant, and her voice was lowered by an octave.
He kept acting coquettishly.
Zhang Yang had a cold war. He was in his twenties and acted like a teenage girl. It was too cold.
Naturally, Zhang Yang's performance could not be concealed from Hong Yaqin. Hong Yaqin's eyes widened. Zhang Yang sighed secretly and sat on the sofa. It is said that people have two sides, and he has experienced it today.
The flirting between the two people did not escape Hong's mother's eyes, and a smile flashed at the corner of her mouth.
"You also know that I'm going after you. Tell us how long you haven't been home, and you didn't tell us that you have a boyfriend. If you weren't pressed this time, are you still planning to hide it and wait until one day?
Your grandson, you just brought it back to me to see?" Hong's father said.
"Dad!" Hong Yaqin blushed.
Hong's mother pushed Hong's father and said, "Don't talk nonsense in front of Xiao Zhang. Xiao Zhang, come and eat the fruit."
"Aunt, you're welcome. I'll do it myself," Zhang Yang said.
After saying that, he stood up, picked a red apple, peeled it with a fruit knife, cut it in half and put it in the fruit bowl, handed it to Hong Yaqin and said, "Yaqin has peeled it, you can try it."
Hong Yaqin's eyes widened when she saw Zhang Yang like this. Is this that cold-blooded animal? Look at the smile on his face and his gentle movements. If it weren't for her parents, Hong Yaqin would definitely open it.
Look at Zhang Yang's face and see how many masks he has.
Hong's mother saw Zhang Yang's careful performance and nodded happily. As a mother, she wants her daughter to find someone who is considerate and can take care of her. This young man is good.
Although Father Hong did not smile, the expression on his face was no longer so serious.
"Xiao Zhang, where is your family from? Who are your parents?" Hong's mother asked.
Zhang Yang continued to peel the apples. When he heard Hong's mother ask, he put down what he was doing and said seriously: "Auntie, my family comes from a small county in Hebei Province. Both my parents are ordinary workers."
Mother Hong glanced at her daughter in surprise.
She knew who her husband was. To put it nicely, he meant being a well-matched man, but to put it badly, he was just looking for someone to order the dishes. She thought that even if the person her daughter brought back was not a young man from a wealthy family, he should be from the elite of society.
, she didn’t expect it to be from an ordinary family. She was a little worried about her husband, but she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Hong’s father’s expression did not change at all.
He changed the topic and asked: "So which university did you graduate from and what company do you work for now?"
Hong Yaqin winked anxiously, fearing that Zhang Yang would say something unreliable again, so she could at least get over it today!
Zhang Yang turned a blind eye and said, "I have been working since my aunt graduated from high school. I resigned not long ago and plan to start a business in the capital."
Hong Yaqin helplessly covered her face, it was over.
What's going on with this guy? He obviously said very good things in the car, but now he's saying the worst things.
Hong's mother was also stunned this time. She didn't expect that Zhang Yang would have such a condition. She looked at Hong Yaqin with some understanding. No wonder her daughter didn't bring her boyfriend home. On this condition, not to mention Hong's father, even she couldn't stand it.
Eyes go.
Father Hong suddenly said: "What business are you planning to do? Do you have a plan?"
Hong Yaqin and Hong's mother were both stunned. They didn't expect Hong's father to ask about this. From their understanding, it was normal for Hong's father to lose his temper and drive Zhang Yang out at this time. They were wondering what happened today?
"I haven't thought about it well. The market in Beijing is huge and there are many investment projects. I want to study it for a while before deciding which industry to pursue. In fact, I came to Beijing to develop for Yaqin. We have been dating for a long time and have been communicating on the phone.
, I have never had face-to-face communication, and there is always a sense of unreality. That’s why I came to Beijing." Zhang Yang said.
Mother Hong asked in surprise: "Have you never met before?"
This was a script that had been arranged long ago. Hong Yaqin could only follow Zhang Yang's instructions and said: "We are netizens. Isn't it normal that we haven't met?"
"Online dating?" Hong's mother blinked, thinking that her daughter hardly engaged in any entertainment activities except the kitchen, she nodded with some understanding and said: "I understand, no wonder you stay in your room all day when you are at home, it turns out to be online dating
.”
Father Hong coughed and said, "Okay, you go prepare the dishes. It's Xiao Zhang's first time here. I'll have a chat with him."
Hong's mother nodded and pulled Hong Yaqin towards the kitchen. She happened to have many things to ask her daughter.
After the two of them left, Zhang Yang sat up straight.
"Xiao Zhang, let's talk about your business. I want to hear your thoughts!" Hong's father never mentioned the matter between the two of them, nor did he say that their conditions were very different and they were not suitable for starting a business early.
How was the separation? Instead, I asked Zhang Yang about starting a business.
Zhang Yang was a little confused. He had long been prepared to deal with the bombing, but he didn't expect that Hong's father didn't follow the routine.
"Uncle, this is what I am worried about, and I am not afraid of your ridicule! I have a small amount of funds on hand, but I have no idea what project to choose. It has been three days since I arrived in the capital. Except for Yaqin's hotel, there are no other
I spend all my time on newspapers, the Internet and on the road." Zhang Yang said with a wry smile.
"We have funds but no projects!" Hong's father said.
Zhang Yang nodded and said: "Yes, uncle. In fact, if I choose to be an ordinary citizen with the money I have on hand, I will have no worries about food and drink for the rest of my life. But I have just turned twenty and I can't just live like this for the rest of my life! I always have to keep something in my life.
What to do! Besides, I am a man, and men have to work hard in this society to prove their worth. Only such men are worthy of women's trust."
Father Hong nodded in agreement and asked: "This makes sense. But the market has matured now. It is difficult to achieve results with just a bunch of enthusiasm. If you are not careful, all your efforts may be lost. I advise
When you choose investment projects, you must be cautious, don’t be anxious, walk around more, see more, choose an industry that suits you. You are still young, don’t be anxious, do market research first, just like cooking, entertaining guests
, we need to know whether the guests are from the south or the north, whether they like sweet or salty food, whether they like seafood or animals. Only when you are well prepared can you make a table of dishes that the guests like. And you must be good at it.
Make use of your own strengths and try to work in an industry you are familiar with. It is better to become a professional than to be a stranger!"
Zhang Yang said gratefully: "Thank you, uncle!"
Speaking of which, Zhang Yang had set a goal from the day he left Jincheng to make enough money and own his own company. However, he had no idea what to do specifically, and his continuous success made him impetuous. I thought.
As long as you have funds, you can open a big company at will and count the money until you are weak. After hearing what Hong's father said, he suddenly realized that he was a little impetuous.
It is really not a good choice to cash out all your gold without even thinking about what industry you want to work in.
Zhang Yang took this opportunity to ask Hong's father about starting a business. Hong's father also answered all questions and answered Zhang Yang's doubts. From the beginning to the end, he never mentioned anything about him and Hong Yaqin.
After Hong's mother interrogated her daughter in the kitchen, she returned to the living room and was a little dumbfounded when she saw the two chatting animatedly. What was going on? When did the old man become so enthusiastic? Shouldn't he scold Zhang Yang with a cold face?
"Is the food ready? Xiao Zhang, come and have a drink with me." Hong's father stood up and said when he saw Hong's mother coming out.
Zhang Yang said hurriedly: "Uncle, I drove here, so I can't drink!"
"It's okay, this is my own home, not outside. If you drink too much, just sleep here. There are plenty of rooms." Hong's father said unwillingly.
So Zhang Yang once again drank too much in a gorgeous manner.
After Zhang Yang was helped back to the guest room to sleep, Hong's mother found the old man sitting in the living room drinking tea: "Old man, what's going on?"
"What's going on?" Hong's father asked.
"Xiao Zhang, with your character, you shouldn't have coaxed him away long ago," Hong's mother said.
Father Hong said displeased: "Am I such a snobbish person in your eyes? Anyway, this is the first time my daughter has brought a boyfriend back, so we have to give her some face. Besides, this young man is really good!
"
Seeing that Hong's mother didn't understand, Hong's father said: "Didn't you notice the clothes Zhang Yang was wearing? It's not a big brand, so he could barely put it into words. Looking at the way he looked at ease, it wasn't the first day he wore it.
There is no disguise. I have seen the watch. It is a real Swiss watch worth tens of thousands of dollars. This shows that his economic conditions are pretty good, and he comes from an ordinary family. Think about an ordinary family.
How difficult it is for people who are born in China to have these things through their own efforts without going to college or outside help."
Hong's mother nodded and said, "Yes, I was concerned about his family and didn't notice this. But he has no job and no education, and he talks about starting a business. Why do I feel so unreliable and like a liar?"
?Isn’t it possible that Yaqin was deceived by him?”
"You, you, just look at the surface and make random decisions without understanding the situation. A liar? What can he lie to? Yaqin is a child and has no ability to judge of his own, let alone you and me! If he wants to cheat money, he
The money on hand is enough for him to live on. He is several years younger than Yaqin, so it's hard to tell who will take advantage and who will suffer the loss," said Hong's father.
Hong's mother angrily punched Hong's father and said, "Have you ever said that about your daughter? Speaking of which, this young man gave me a very good impression. He was very real and didn't hide anything. If ordinary people saw our family, they would
They would definitely hide their origins or avoid questions. But Xiao Zhang didn’t hesitate at all and didn’t think there was anything wrong with his origins. He was in the first place compared to others. This alone is very rare.”
"I understand what you mean. Don't you just say that I am powerful and always talk about being a good match? In fact, that's what I said. After all, what is my background? Aren't I just a cook? I do it for my daughter's benefit.
I want her to live happily in the future. But if there is a suitable young man and they like each other, so what if he is really a poor boy. The money I, Lao Hong, have earned in my life is enough for them to eat and drink. If I don’t leave this money to my daughter, should I take it all away?
?But this Zhang Yang is ambitious and ambitious. Although he is young, he has a mature personality. I am afraid that Yaqin may not be able to subdue him!" Hong's father said.
Hong's father is an old man who has lived for many years. Naturally, he will not only look at the surface like many people do. He is not the kind of official son. He does not want to marry to maintain the power of the family. As long as his cooking skills can be passed down, his daughter will have a happy life.
He is satisfied with his married life.
But during the chat just now, he felt Zhang Yang's ambition, so he was very worried.
