Chapter 181 Xiao Linzi, please wash my feet tonight~~
Willow Lane, Su Family.
Zhao Lixia held a registered letter, which the postman had just delivered.
When I saw that the letter was sent from the Institute of Finance, I knew that it contained Su Zelin’s transcript.
At this time, the communication network was not yet developed, and some families did not even have telephones. The way for parents to learn about their children's final college exam results was through letters, so colleges and universities uniformly mailed transcripts to let parents of college students know their children's performance in school.
However, in this way, some smart little guys with poor grades will deliberately fill in the wrong address or cut off their ID. Su Zelin did this in his previous life, and cut off his ID twice.
Unfortunately, the good times did not come to pass. Later, the two elders learned from other parents that college transcripts would be sent home, but they never received it. They knew that Su Zelin was responsible for it, and they were whipped with a broom by their mother that day.
.
However, there is no need to cut off the beard in this life.
"His!"
I tore open the envelope and found a transcript inside.
After a few casual glances, Su’s mother’s face almost turned into a flower with a smile.
It’s almost the same as the two semesters of freshman year. There are a few subjects with perfect scores, and there are more than 90 students who don’t have perfect scores.
In high school, Zhao Lixia had to take antihypertensive medicine as soon as Su Zelin got the test papers back. Now she feels so smooth, so don't be too happy.
Come to Su Zelin's room.
"Son, the school sent you your scores. You did very well!"
Zhao Lixia put the report card on her desk and discovered something.
Every time my son comes home for vacation, the room is littered with comics everywhere, from books to books, at the head and foot of the bed, tables, stools, and even the bathroom...
In short, these comics are everywhere and may be thrown into every corner.
However, during this winter vacation, those comics disappeared.
One time when cleaning up her son's bedroom, Su's mother found them neatly placed in a drawer.
Su Zelin can't take care of it so well. There is only one possibility: when he came back this time, he didn't take out these comics at all.
Mother Su was very surprised at that time.
In the past, Su Zelin was an out-and-out comic book fan. She would read comics every day during the holidays, and sometimes even she couldn't help but beep a few words.
Now that her son has suddenly changed gender, Zhao Lixia is not used to it.
In fact, Su Zelin stopped reading comics before his rebirth. After all, he was not in his teens or 20s. He just felt nostalgic after his rebirth, and he had nothing to do during the previous winter vacation except reading comics online.
At that time, the first store in the new century had just opened, and the foundation was weak. You were full of enthusiasm and ambition, but you had to take your time.
But things are different now. Five stores have been opened and the business is increasing. The holidays cannot be as leisurely as before.
At this time, the bastard was writing a plan for the coming year. Hearing this, he just turned his head and glanced at the report card casually, then looked away and said "oh" indifferently.
This result is not surprising to him. After entering the School of Finance, he is no longer the low-achiever he was in high school. Every time he takes the final exam, his scores in all subjects are top-notch.
"Son, aren't you surprised at all?"
Su Zelin's indifference will definitely make Zhao Lixia lose her temper.
"Mom, what's the surprise? I already have this strength. Isn't this normal?"
Su Zelin laughed: "If you want to surprise me, why not reward me with a few Red Bulls!"
"Go, go, don't talk to mom about money. You are a manager now, so your salary will not be low!"
Zhao Lixia is not as easy to trick as Su Jianjun. Su's mother has always disapproved of giving too much money to her son, lest he develop the habit of lavish spending. It is not easy for Su Zelin to ask his mother for one or two Red Bulls, so he just talks casually.
That’s all.
"Son, what are you writing?"
Su's mother asked curiously.
"Store planning, set a goal for the next semester, what marketing activities should be done, etc."
Su Zelin explained simply.
"Yes, yes, you should have a plan when doing business!"
Mother Su was very pleased.
After becoming the manager of a large company, I feel that my son has matured all of a sudden.
Now that I have responsibilities on my shoulders, I have to be responsible for the boss and the store. I am no longer the willful and ignorant child I used to be.
Seemingly remembering something, Zhao Lixia said again: "By the way, son, my parents will have to go out later, so we won't make lunch, but I told Shiqing that I'll let you come over and rub it in later!"
Su Zelin has been back for a week, but she no longer has the big fish and meat treatment every day. In addition, the business is very busy during the New Year, so she is basically free-range during the day. Just don't starve to death.
After the explanation, Zhao Lixia left.
Su Zelin continued to immerse himself in writing the plan. I don’t know how long it took, but a plan was finally completed.
In addition to continuing to open stores next year, we also need to further build up the reputation of New Century. It is also possible to buy advertisements from TV stations.
TV advertising in this era is not very expensive and is very cost-effective.
Moreover, what Su Zelin plans to buy is not just a local TV station in Lin'an, but a provincial TV station.
Although there are currently only stores in Lin'an, it seems to be useless, but it is not.
As long as the brand is promoted in the province and gains popularity, New Century can directly negotiate with universities in other cities in Zhejiang Province to settle in.
After all, it is impossible to get contacts with so many universities in other cities one by one. It would be too troublesome, so brand influence is very important.
Many universities are unable to open up the digital market. As long as they know that New Century's presence in this area can bring benefits, many universities are willing to discuss cooperation even if they lack personal connections.
In short, New Century must become a well-known enterprise in the province next year, and the year after that it will radiate to the entire Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Lu regions!
While stretching for a long time, Su Zelin's nose suddenly twitched and smelled the fragrance.
Mom has gone out, of course it is not from home.
From next door!
Qin Shiqing is making lunch.
When I looked at my phone, it was already twelve o'clock before I knew it.
"Gugu..."
Her stomach growled, and Su Zelin was also hungry, so she immediately walked out of the room.
When I came next door, Qin Daqing and Liu Sufen were not at home either.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
At this time, everyone doing business is busy.
Everyone is looking forward to making more money during the Chinese New Year.
The gangster tiptoed into the kitchen and saw Qin Shiqing cooking.
The girl is wearing an apron and stir-frying the beef in the pot with a very skillful technique.
She became sensible early. When she was a child, the adults in her family often worked overtime and had no time, so she learned to cook from then on. In addition, the two military advisers Liu Sufen and Zhao Lixia occasionally gave guidance, so her cooking skills were good.
A plate of beef with celery was cooked. As soon as it was put on the plate and placed on the stove, two fingers came out from behind and picked up a piece of meat with lightning speed.
Qin Shiqing was startled, and when she turned around, she realized it was Su Zelin.
Long-term and rich experience in eating secretly, "Lu Xiaofeng" has perfected her hands and fingers.
"What are you doing? You run behind others silently. It's scary!"
The girl's eyebrows were raised, her hands on her hips.
"Also, don't eat secretly!"
"I'm not eating it secretly. Why don't I taste it first so that you don't waste the ingredients?"
The bastard is reasonable.
"How's it going? Is it okay?"
Qin Shiqing is quite confident.
She is not the kind of woman who has been cooking for decades and cannot add the right amount of salt.
Su Zelin nodded slightly and commented in a brick-like tone: "Well, your meat is pretty good. It's tender yet chewy, the juice is thick and the saltiness is just right. The only drawback is that it's a little fishy.
At the end, he added: "Next time, remember to add more cooking wine to remove the fishy smell!"
"You are the pickiest, and my aunt says I am good at cooking!"
Qin Shiqing glared at him.
"By the way, did you wash your hands just now?"
"Wash it!"
Su Zelin was talking nonsense. In fact, he hurried over from home as soon as he smelled the aroma of vegetables. He didn't even have time to wash it, because eating it secretly means stealing it freshly out of the pot, and it would be pointless to carry it to the dining room.
"Wash your hair. If your hands are so dry after washing, go wash them immediately!"
Qin Shiqing’s eyes were as bright as a torch.
"What a verbose person, why do you look more and more like my mother!"
Su Zelin complained a few words and went to the sink to wash his hands.
Before leaving the kitchen, the bastard once again used his spiritual skills to pick up a piece of beef with lightning speed, grabbing the ball before the girl was about to go crazy.
Qin Shiqing was so angry that she stamped her feet.
She knew that her childhood sweetheart liked to steal food, and it was okay to steal it at home. She would also steal it when she went to other people's homes, but there was nothing she could do against him.
Hehe, I am getting more and more proficient in my understanding of one finger.
Looking at the two fingers covered with sticky juice, the gangster even sucked on them.
Can't waste it.
After a while, lunch is ready.
Stir-fried beef with celery, Chinese cabbage, and a seaweed egg drop soup, just a simple home-cooked meal.
There were only two of us at home, and we didn’t cook much.
Qin Shiqing filled two bowls of rice, and Su Zelin pressed the bowl several times because she knew her childhood sweetheart had a big appetite.
"Primary Evolution"
"Then let me start!"
Of course, the gangster who had been rubbing up against Qin Shiqing since he was a child would not be polite to her. He immediately began to eat, taking the kuaizi and trying his best to scoop the rice into his mouth, as if he was reincarnated by a starving ghost.
Qin Shiqing is more polite, chewing carefully and swallowing slowly.
After a while, the girl spoke: "I want to visit my grandma tomorrow. My parents won't be free until after the New Year, so they asked me to send her some New Year's goods. When I called her in the morning, grandma said she hadn't seen you for a long time.
Yes, do you want to go?"
"Go to your grandma's house..."
Su Zelin stopped picking up food.
He knows his childhood sweetheart’s grandmother.
When I was a child, during summer vacation, I often went to the countryside where the old lady lived with Qin Shiqing to play, and once we played for almost the entire summer vacation.
At the same time, the old lady also came to the city to take care of two children.
But as I got older, my legs and feet were not so flexible and I stopped coming.
Thinking back, I haven’t seen the elderly since the second grade of junior high school.
Speaking of which, it’s been many years!
The old lady is a very kind person and treats her very well. As a junior, she really deserves a visit after such a long time, not to mention that everyone has mentioned her on the phone. It would be rude not to go.
Thinking of this, the gangster nodded and said: "Okay, I'll go too!"
"Great, grandma will be very happy to see you!"
"..."
That night, Su Zelin and the two elders talked about going to Qin Shiqing's grandma's house tomorrow.
Naturally, the two elders had no objections and said it was appropriate.
After all, my son also received the care of the old lady when he was a child.
However, they all told Su Zelin to pay attention to etiquette and buy some New Year's goods and fruits.
After all, I’m not a child anymore, so I still drove there in a car. If I have the financial resources, I can’t come empty-handed during the Chinese New Year.
The next morning, Su Zelin and Qin Shiqing went out, first going to the New Year Street to buy gifts.
Candy and biscuits are indispensable. Although they are very cliché, they are still required during the holidays. This is etiquette. Wangwang and Xu Fuji bought more than a dozen bags because many nearby villagers are Qin Shiqing's cousins and they knew each other back then.
In addition, there are high-calcium cereals and milk powder, which are specially bought for the old lady, because she has bad legs and feet, and it is good to take more calcium.
Finally, there is the familiar melatonin.
"No gifts will be accepted during the holidays this year, but melatonin will be received as a gift." This popular and magical advertising slogan is undoubtedly one of the most classic pieces of text in the history of TV advertising, making melatonin popular all over the country.
In fact, many people think that this kind of health care product is paying an IQ tax and sneer at its functions, including Su Zelin.
But when Su Zelin was thinking about giving a gift to the old lady today, Melatonin popped into his mind involuntarily, and he bought a few boxes by accident.
In fact, many consumers don't know that this thing may have little effect. However, buying melatonin as a gift to the elderly is a sign of filial piety, and it is also very face-saving. As long as the elderly are happy, as for whether it is really useful, who cares so much? p>
Therefore, Melatonin's advertising slogans can be said to have firmly grasped the psychology of consumers, and it is not difficult to understand why it is selling like crazy.
This is the role of current TV advertisements and classic articles. If you want to buy advertisements on TV in the new century, you must also create an advertising slogan and plan that caters to consumer psychology.
While loading several boxes of melatonin into the car, Su Zelin thought to himself.
After buying the gifts, the two set off.
Qin Shiqing's grandma's house is not far away, and it's also in Jianglan. It's a small village about 20 kilometers away from the city. It's right on the side of the country road. Santana drives directly to the door, which is very convenient.
Yesterday, I learned by phone that my granddaughter and her little playmate were coming today. The old lady did not go to the neighbor's house to visit, but was waiting at the gate.
As soon as she saw the car, she stood up from the chair with crutches.
Seeing this, Qin Shiqing hurriedly went over to support her: "Grandma, just sit down!"
Su Zelin also went over to say hello: "Grandma, I haven't seen you for a long time. Are you feeling well?"
"Haha, I'm old, but I can still walk!"
The old lady has bad legs and feet, but she is still very cheerful and speaks fluently. She bought her brain platinum for free, but apart from this, Su Zelin really can’t think of any good gifts.
After looking at Su Zelin for a few times, she was surprised and said: "Xiao Linzi, you have grown so tall!"
In the past, the old lady was nicknamed Su Zelin. Almost all children in rural areas had down-to-earth nicknames. Girls would be called Huofeng, Niuniu, Dahua, Cuihua, Zhaodi, etc. For example, Qin Shiqing was called Niuniu.
Men are even more earthy, with dog eggs, iron pillars, tiger babies, big hair and small hair...
Anyway, take it no matter how unpleasant it sounds, it is said that it is easier to make a living this way.
Considering that Su Zelin came from the city, the old lady named him "Xiao Linzi", which was relatively nice.
Su Zelin coughed dryly: "Grandma, I am eighteen years old and already a young man. How about you call me Xiaolin?"
Although there is only one word missing, the nature is completely different.
Xiao Linzi sounds like a eunuch.
"Haha, okay, Xiao Linzi, come here and let grandma take a good look at it."
Su Zelin: "..."
Okay, whatever.
As long as grandma is happy.
"Come on, come on, let's go into the house and chat again, Niuniu, you don't need to help grandma, I'm in good health, it tastes good when I eat it!"
The old man is quite humorous.
"I know, grandma!"
Even so, Qin Shiqing did not let go of her hand, and just supported her by her side.
Su Zelin drove the back of the car and moved out the New Year gifts for the Qin family and himself.
The arrival of the two caused quite a stir in the small village.
Soon there were many more villagers in the old house, almost all of them Qin Shiqing's cousins, including older elders and childhood friends of similar age.
Everyone mainly came here for Su Zelin. Qin Shiqing comes to visit relatives every year, so she sees more of her and is not that strange.
But I haven’t seen Su Zelin for several years.
When I was a child, I was a regular visitor to the village. He was very naughty and a tough-looking man. He was an elf and a pistachio, and everyone liked him very much.
"Hey, Xiao Linzi is a head taller than us, and he has grown into a handsome young man!"
"I'm a dog boy, Xiao Linzi, do you remember that we smoked out voles together, and we smoked out a snake. My legs almost disappeared, and you still want to catch it!"
"Xiao Linzi, when we competed to see who could pee farther, there were more than a dozen boys, and you were the best!"
"..."
These familiar yet slightly unfamiliar faces, as well as a small forest, evoked Su Zelin’s long-standing memories.
Every time Qin Shiqing and I visit my grandma's house in the countryside, it's a wonderful time. Grandma is very kind, the villagers are very simple, and the friends are also very warm and friendly.
Catching mice, catching fish, poaching birds, digging earthworms, catching cicadas, roasting sweet potatoes, bamboo tube rice and peeing competitions. Anyway, I play all kinds of crazy things with my friends every day, and even became the leading brother among my friends in just one summer vacation.
It was this experience in the countryside that made Su Zelin feel that his childhood was more complete.
Occasionally, I go back to my grandma’s house with Qin Shiqing, and it feels pretty good.
The candies and biscuits have been divided into more than ten portions, and there is a white pagoda in each portion. Each of these elder villagers has one portion for each household. Everyone praised Su Zelin for making money and being sensible.
I stayed all day, had dinner, and didn't plan to leave until it was getting dark.
Before getting in the car, Su Zelin stuffed a big red envelope into the old lady: "Grandma, Xiao Linzi wishes you a better life than Nanshan, a long and healthy life!"
"Xiao Linzi, just come and play next time. Don't buy so many things. Grandma will be very happy if you and Niuniu come to see me when you have time!"
"I know, grandma, it's just a little thought. Anyway, just accept it!"
"Okay, then drive slowly and have a good time with Niuniu!"
"..."
Santana started, and the old lady and the villagers watched the car leave on the dirt road.
It wasn't until their figures disappeared in the rearview mirror that Qin Shiqing, the co-pilot, turned around and made a face at Su Zelin: "Xiao Linzi, I will wash my feet tonight~~"
The bastard's face became serious: "I'll help you wash your ass tonight..."
No, if you put it like this, wouldn’t they be a couple?
