Chapter 44 The Garden
April spring - bright and bustling flowers and trees are blooming. It is a good time to go out for a garden and it happens to be a weekend. Therefore, at the entrance of the Botanical Garden, there are cars gathering like ants, and there are so many tourists, which is very lively.
Qiao Yadan was originally going to queue up to buy tickets, but was stopped by Qin Fengyi. She took out a Hong Kong city tourism card, swiped it several times at the door, and then took her group into the botanical garden. The bodyguard was carrying a black bag and followed behind not far or near.
As soon as he entered the door, before he could walk a few steps, Fang Xiao heard someone calling him. After seeing it, it was Zheng Yonglin. He was wearing a golf hat and holding a chubby middle-aged woman, standing under the shade of a tree beside the road and waved to him.
Qiao Yadan glanced at Qin Fengyi and asked, "Fang Xiao, isn't that Principal Zheng?"
"Yeah." Fang Xiao cooperated and explained simply: "Before he came to Hong Kong, he worked in the same unit with my father, and watched me grow up since he was a child."
Qin Fengyi said in surprise and put on the brown sunglasses she held in her hand.
"Fang Xiao, I looked like you from a distance and shouted, it's really you." Zheng Yonglin had excellent acting skills. He first said a few words to Fang Xiao before he was "surprised" to discover Qin Fengyi and said, "Ms. Qin, why are you together?"
"It's just a coincidence." Qin Fengyi seemed to be not very cold about him and said perfunctorily: "I brought the child to play and happened to meet Fang Xiao."
"That's really a coincidence." Zheng Yonglin introduced with a smile again: "My child is studying abroad, and Ayu is so bored that she stays at home alone. The weather is good today, so I happened to rest, so I accompanied her out for a walk. Unexpectedly, I met you as soon as I arrived here."
Qin Fengyi was very enthusiastic to Zheng Yonglin's wife and said with a smile: "Sister Yu, when I was at work in Shengxin, I ate the food you cooked several times. It tasted so good. Now I still drool when I think about it."
The middle-aged woman named Ayu seemed very reserved. She rubbed the corners of her clothes with her hands and said with an unnatural smile: "If you like to eat, I will make it for you next time."
Qin Fengyi nodded with a smile, and after saying a few words, Qi Qingjun became impatient and shouted: "Auntie! Do you still want to go sketching?"
"Oh, Principal Zheng, Sister Yu, I'm sorry, I'm going to take my two children to sketch." Qin Fengyi walked away and said, "Fang Xiao, please accompany Principal Zheng, we'll wait for you in front."
Qiao Yadan took two steps forward and said, "I'll help you take the guitar over first."
Fang Xiao handed her the guitar. After Qiao Yadan carries it, she smiles shyly at Zheng Yonglin, and then quickly catches up with Qin Fengyi and the others.
Zheng Yonglin's face was as deep as water. After watching the group walk away, he asked, "Fang Xiao, wasn't that girl just now Qiao Yadan from the same school as you during the interview that day?"
"Yeah." Fang Xiao nodded and said, "She is my girlfriend, and I'm here to play together today."
"Girlfriend?" Zheng Yonglin was stunned and asked, "Is it the one who lets you drink and go to the hospital?"
"No." Fang Xiao smiled bitterly. The sudden love that came soon became hard to explain. He grabbed his hair and said, "It's a new girlfriend, I just got it."
"Oh." Zheng Yonglin didn't care either. He pointed at the woman beside him and introduced it briefly: "This is your Aunt Wang."
"Hello, Aunt Wang."
"You are the son of Sister Quan Fang Xiao." After Qin Fengyi left, Aunt Wang seemed to relax a lot. She looked at Fang Xiao and exclaimed: "He is so handsome, his eyes are like your mother and his nose is like your father. He is really good, he is also tall, but he is a little thin. When he has time, he comes to my house to sit down. I will make some delicious food for you and make up for it. My hometown dishes are so authentic..."
"Is there anything outside now?" Zheng Yonglin interrupted her nagging and said, "Fang Xiao, go there first. The botanical garden is quite large, and it is difficult to find it if you get lost. Send me a message when you have lunch."
Fang Xiao nodded, but did not rush to leave, but said, "Uncle Zheng, how were Qiao Yadan's interview results that day?"
"She?" Zheng Yonglin thought about it before saying: "She had a good first-instance test score, ranked first among everyone, and her re-examination score was OK, and she had good teaching ability, but her piano skills were not outstanding enough, and she only ranked fourth in voting scores. There is little hope of applying for the job."
Qiao Yadan's hands are no longer suitable for playing difficult piano music, and the cool guy behind her is too high. Compared with the two, he naturally lowered the piano score...
"Fang Xiao, what do you want to do?" Zheng Yonglin observed his expression and saw Fang Xiao's thoughts and stopped him: "The opportunity to be a teacher in Sacred Heart is very rare. Don't be fascinated by women, just give it up easily. That Qiao Yadan is a friend you just made. You don't even know whether you are sincere or false. You will suffer a great loss if you are heartless!"
"Uncle Zheng, I'm actually not interested in going to work in Shengxin." Fang Xiao decided to get to know this as soon as possible. He didn't want to always be a middleman between Zheng Yonglin and Qin Fengyi. Not to mention the trouble, he also delayed his time, so he said: "I have opened a company with him and am preparing to start his own business. Qiao Yadan is my girlfriend and the interview results are good. I thought, why not give her the opportunity."
"Open a company? What company?"
"I run a music company with a very rich classmate. I have invested more than 100,000 yuan." Fang Xiaoyu said vaguely, and then said: "Uncle Zheng, Qiao Yadan is ranked fourth in total. If Sister Qin says hello, there should be no problem?"
"You call her Sister Qin?"
"Yes, I shouted like this when I called, and she didn't object." Fang Xiao added fire and said, "On the way here just now, Sister Qin asked me to find some time to teach the two girls playing guitar just now."
Zheng Yonglin's eyes flashed, and after thinking for a while, he said, "You like that Qiao Yadan very much?"
"She's pretty good."
"If she treats you wholeheartedly, you will have better development. It is not impossible to give her the opportunity." Zheng Yonglin patted his shoulder and said, "You go there first, remember to send a text message, and I will tell you when the time comes."
"Okay." Fang Xiao nodded and said goodbye: "Uncle Zheng, Aunt Wang, I'll leave first."
"This kid looks pretty good."
"What's so good? Like his father, he's a nerd who doesn't know the current affairs!"
...
Qin Fengyi sat on a big rock, rubbed her calves, looked at Qiao Yadan, who was drawing with two little girls not far away, and said, "Fang Xiao, thanks to you who brought Xiao Qiao here today. If it weren't for her, I would be exhausted."
Fang Xiao sat down on the stone opposite her and said, "Yadan is more suitable for being a teacher than me."
"I think so, Xiao Qiao is very careful, patient, and steady, with the majesty of a teacher." Qin Fengyi said with a smile: "You are more like a big brother who plays with them. You have a good temper and are not serious enough. Education is not just about playing with them."
Fang Xiao nodded and said, "My personality is a little soft and I can't speak with a stern face."
"You are not suitable for the teacher of children and for the teacher of adults." Qin Fengyi looked up at him and said, "You taught me to write songs just now, and I was very good at writing lyrics. I was originally not aware of writing lyrics and had no confidence, but after listening to your explanation, I felt that it was constantly inspiring. It seemed that writing lyrics was a very simple thing."
"It's very simple, just express it with feelings."
After saying that, he remembered Xun and couldn't help but smile.
"It's not that simple." Qin Fengyi smiled when she saw him laughing and said, "All the art in the world is nothing more than the four words of "feelings" but there are many people who have feelings, and very few can express them."
"It's not too much." Fang Xiao said perfunctorily, then asked: "Sister Qin, I have a classmate, named Xu, do you know him?"
Qin Fengyi was stunned and subconsciously said, "Save? This name is so strange."
"I told her about coming to the Botanical Garden yesterday. She called you Aunt Qin, as if she was very familiar with you."
"Xuo, Xun." Qin Fengyi said a few words, then smiled suddenly and said, "I know who you are talking about, is Shen Shanbo's precious daughter? She used to be Shen Ke, and when did she change her name to Xun?"
Shen Ke?
The surname is Shen?
Who is Shen Shanbo?
Who is the Uncle Shen from the Twilight Bar?
Seeing that he didn't speak, Qin Fengyi asked, "Why, don't you know her previous name?"
"I don't know." Fang Xiao shook his head and said, "I've never heard her talk about it."
"Her mother's surname is Xu, she is a pianist of the Guangzhou Orchestra. She is good friends with me. When Duoduo's father was working in Guangzhou, I was bored and opened a dance training class to take a few children to practice dance for free. Among them, Shen Ke. She was just in junior high school at that time. She was smart and cute. She learned everything very quickly and was very likable." Qin Fengyi showed a look of remembrance. After a while, she said: "Later Duoduo's father was transferred to Kyoto for work, and I followed him. At first, she often called. Not long after, her mother died of illness and then contacted less. Unexpectedly, she changed her name to her mother's surname. No wonder I met Shen Shanbo several times and asked him about Shen Ke, he smiled bitterly. I thought this girl was so troubled that he was very troubled."
There is a lot of information in this...
