The next morning.
Zhang Xing got up early.
The sunrise at the seaside has always been the most beautiful scenery of the small fishing village.
Zhang Xing, who had not seen the sunrise for a long time, planned to go to see the sunrise today and go fishing. On the one hand, he wanted to test whether the visual range of his mutant eyes on the seabed was increased and deepened, and on the other hand, he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make as much money as possible.
Zhang Xing did not plan to use the 500,000 yuan bonus on himself, but on his parents. Although his parents had saved a sum of money, it was the wife's capital they saved for him, and they were unwilling to use it on themselves.
In other words, as long as he was not married, his parents actually had no pension capital, so while his parents saved a wife's capital for him, he also wanted to save a pension for his parents.
This is called a two-way deposit, the parents' intentions, the son's repayment.
But just after getting up and washing up, mother Lin Fang came over with a smile and said to Zhang Xing:
"You got up just in time, help mom go to the market to buy some vegetables."
As she said, mother handed Zhang Xing a note, on which were written all kinds of vegetables, fruits, chickens, ducks, fish and meat to be bought.
Judging from the handwriting, it was obviously written by father Zhang Ming.
Zhang Xing asked suspiciously:
"Mom, are there any guests coming to our house? Why buy so many vegetables?"
Lin Fang smiled and nodded:
"Your uncle Zheng and his family are coming to our house to play today."
Zhang Xing asked in surprise:
"Which uncle Zheng?"
Lin Fang said:
"It's Uncle Zheng Jianguo who used to have a good relationship with your father."
Hearing the three words Zheng Jianguo, Zhang Xing finally had some impression. Zheng Jianguo used to live in the small villa next to the village committee. His family was also from a small fishing village, but they had always been a wealthy family in the small fishing village.
Zheng Jianguo and his father Zhang Ming had a good relationship when they were young and were middle school classmates. Later, Zheng Jianguo became a doctor and was transferred to the city's health department, while Zhang Ming stayed in the small fishing village and became an ordinary fisherman.
Zheng Jianguo has a virtuous wife and a naughty daughter. His daughter is called Zheng Nuan. Before Zheng Jianguo was transferred to the city, Zheng Nuan often came to Zhang Xing's house to play with him. When they were young, they had a good relationship. Some people in the village even called the two children a pair of childhood sweethearts.
It may be because of her good family background and pampering since childhood. Zheng Nuan was a little willful and domineering when she was a child. She would lose her temper easily after a few words. If Zhang Xing didn't agree with her, she would cry loudly. Over time, Zhang Xing was not very willing to play with her.
Later, after Zheng Jianguo's family settled in the city, the contact between the Zhang family and the Zheng family basically stopped, and Zhang Xing and Zheng Nuan met very rarely since then. Although their family would return to the small fishing village every New Year, Zheng Nuan seemed to become more arrogant since she went to school in the city. I remember one year, her father dragged her to Zhang Xing's house to pay New Year's greetings, but she didn't come.
When he was in high school, Zhang Xing saw Zheng Nuan once in a bookstore. Zheng Nuan was buying books with several fashionable girls in the bookstore. Zhang Xing was sure that Zheng Nuan saw him at the time, but Zheng Nuan didn't say hello to him. Therefore, Zhang Xing didn't say hello to her and walked around from the other side.
He could probably guess why Zheng Nuan didn't say hello to him at the time. It was probably because he was dressed too shabby at the time, or he was afraid that her fashionable classmates would laugh at her, so he pretended not to see it.
This incident left a deep impression on Zhang Xing. Since then, he only occasionally heard a few words about Zheng Nuan from Zhang Ming.
It is said that after Zheng Nuan graduated from high school, she failed to get into an ideal university. Later, her father Zheng Jianguo sent her to study in a second-rate university abroad through connections and money.
A friend who had not been in touch for many years suddenly wanted to come to his house to play today, and it happened to be during his vacation. Combined with the words mentioned by his father Zhang Ming before leaving last night, Zhang Xing believed that today's meal should not be a coincidence.
"Oh, it turned out to be Uncle Zheng Jianguo, then I remember it. By the way, his daughter Zheng Nuan will not come too, right?"
Zhang Xing asked his mother Lin Fang tentatively.
Lin Fang smiled and nodded:
"Come on, Nuan Nuan is just like you, she just graduated this year, and she is said to want to take the civil service exam for the health department where her father works next year."
Zhang Xing said with a smile:
"Didn't she study abroad? Why did she come back to China to take the civil service exam?"
Mother Lin Fang couldn't give a reasonable explanation for this, but Zhang Xing could guess that it was probably because she wasted these years abroad. After all, Zheng Nuan went abroadThe university she attended was at best a foreign fake university. If she worked hard, she might be able to continue her studies. If she didn't work hard, she could only get an ordinary degree, or even no degree at all. In this case, she could only return to China to find a solution.
Zheng Jianguo is now the third in command of the city's health department. When his daughter couldn't find a good future outside, he naturally wanted to keep her by his side. Relying on his connections accumulated over the years, if Zheng Nuan could meet the score requirements, he would be fully capable of transferring her to his department.
"It seems that today is a special blind date arranged by the elders?"
Zhang Xing thought about it, and combined with what Zhang Ming said last night, he felt that his guess was very likely.
However, he could also see that the reason why his parents didn't tell him about this matter first was probably because they were worried that he would have a resistance, so today might be a meeting after many years.
Zhang Xing knew the hidden meaning behind today's meal, but he didn't reveal it. According to his mother's instructions, he went to the market to buy vegetables step by step.
When I got home around 10 o'clock in the morning, Zheng Jianguo and his wife were already sitting in the living room, but I didn't see Zheng Nuan.
Zhang Xing came in and greeted Zheng Jianguo and his wife politely.
Although he always had some prejudice against Zheng Nuan, Zhang Xing had no prejudice against Zheng Jianguo and his wife. When he went to school in the city, it was Zheng Jianguo who helped him. Later, when Zhang Ming bought a fishing boat, Zheng Jianguo also lent 100,000 yuan to his family.
In general, Zheng Jianguo is still a good person. Although he has been in the officialdom for many years and has been able to get along with everyone, his relationship with the Zhang family has been estranged over the years, but his relationship with his father Zhang Ming is still good. To be honest, in his position, he is willing to take the initiative to help Zhang Ming, a small fisherman, which is already a person who remembers the old friendship.
After a few pleasantries, Zheng Nuan's mother took the initiative to tell Zhang Xing that Zheng Nuan went for a walk on the beach. The implication was that she hoped Zhang Xing could go to the beach and call Zheng Nuan back for lunch.
Zhang Xing did not refuse this and went directly to the beach. After searching on the beach for a while, a gentle voice came from behind him:
"Zhang Xing! Long time no see!"
Zhang Xing turned around. Zheng Nuan, who had not been seen for many years, had put on glasses and smiled. From her attitude and face, there was almost no trace of the arrogance she had in the past.
