Chapter 8 The Zeng Family

Um?

Gu Yu was startled, his eyes drooped from top to bottom, and he glanced at the other person.

He is about the same age as himself, with a fair complexion and slightly sharp eyebrows. He is wearing a light gray sports and leisure outfit, with his arms open and a pair of camel-colored hiking boots.

One look at this pair of shoes, it’s obvious that the latest model from Wolf Claw costs at least 5,000 yuan.

He doesn't often shop online, he only likes to hang out in various online stores, just like a woman who goes shopping forever without spending any money. The person in front of him is obviously a rich second generation. Of course, this is not the point. The point is that the other party can smell his own.

fragrant.

He was willing to sell whatever he could smell; he had no choice but to sell whatever he couldn't smell. In line with the nature of being a bitch and erecting archways, eager to make some money but unwilling to do so, this Hao was so considerate!

"These three are all Qingruixiang, you just need to buy one," he reminded.

"It's okay, just put it on for me." The boy insisted.

That's OK. Gu Yu put the sachet in place, clicked the lid, pushed it over and said: "One hundred and eighty."

The other party quickly took out the money, held the box in one hand, considered it for a moment, and then asked: "Boss, did you make this incense?"

"right."

"Whatever was put in it, it smells quite pleasant."

"..."

"I'm really interested in this. How about you give me a price and sell this recipe to me."

"..."

He tried his best to pretend to be innocent and ignorant, but Gu Yu glanced at him, smiled and said nothing.

Tsk!

The boy was extremely embarrassed and a little ashamed. He was about to have an attack but suppressed it. He turned around and shouted: "Xiaomeng, stop playing, it's time to go!"

"Just wait a little longer, you can see it's all eaten up."

"If you don't leave, you won't be able to catch up with dinner!"

This sentence seemed very convincing. When the girl heard it, she patted the crumbs on her hands, said goodbye to the squirrel, and then slowly came over.

Seeing her boyfriend holding a box, she asked curiously: "What did you buy?"

"fragrant."

"What kind of fragrance?" she asked blankly.

"It's, uh, the sachets carried by the ancients, you know, something like that."

"Oh, you must have been deceived! What good things can be found in a place like this? It's full of chemicals." The girl complained slightly.

"That's not necessarily true..."

The boy looked back and saw that the boss was cleaning the peanut shells on the ground with a broom. A squirrel laughed a few times and scurried back to the tree.

He turned around, lowered his voice, and said to himself, "Maybe I'll rely on it at night."

…………

Evening, Baicheng.

A silver Land Rover was parked on the street, with a man and a woman sitting in the car, the same two people on Phoenix Mountain.

The boy held a sachet and opened it carefully. Once the seal was loosened, the powder inside was revealed. It was light brown, ground extremely finely, and each particle was plump and well-proportioned, with a light fragrance.

He picked it up with his fingers, trying hard to identify it, sometimes frowning, sometimes stretching, and sometimes sticking out his tongue to lick it. His girlfriend looked at him with a look of menstrual pain, and couldn't help but burst out: "Zeng Shufei, what are you doing?"

"ah?"

He turned his head and said, "Let me see what they are made of."

"Do you understand that?"

"No, there are some materials that are too weird, not like..."

"Bang!"

Before he finished speaking, his girlfriend had already opened the door and got out of the car, dropped her clothes and stepped out of the car.

"Hey, little dream!"

He hurriedly chased him out, grabbed the other person and said, "It's not like you don't know, this is a critical moment. My sister and I are fighting to the death, and my dad can't make up his mind. If I make grandma happy this time, it will basically be

It’s done!”

"That's all?" The girl pointed at the pile of broken powder.

"Oh, you don't understand..." The boy also stared at the powder with a subtle expression.

It is said that this buddy's name is Zeng Shufei, and the girl's name is Li Meng, and they have been dating for two years. His grandmother is from Baicheng. She was widowed at a young age and had a son. She just caught up with the reform and opening up, so she went out to work hard.

Grandma is also a talented person. She just laid a foundation in the provincial capital and founded a building materials company. Zeng Shufei's father is Zeng Guoxiang, and he has an older sister named Zeng Yuewei. His father took over the company, and after he and his sister graduated, they also worked in their own company.

The two siblings were very talented, and their father wanted to promote one person to be the project manager. There was only one position, and the palms and backs of the hands were full of flesh. It was difficult to choose, so he kept putting it off.

After grandma retired, she bought a house and returned to Baicheng to take care of her old age. In recent years, she became obsessed with playing incense. Today was her birthday, so a group of people came to celebrate her birthday. The two siblings had the same idea and wanted to take advantage of it.

This opportunity comes up.

And whether Zeng Shufei was influenced by it or he was deliberately trying to please, he did have some fondness for playing with incense. This Qingrui incense was novel and unique, and it was very appetizing, so he decided to take a gamble.

The two of them sat in the car for a long time, but he still couldn't guess the ingredients of the fragrant ingredients. Seeing that it was getting late, he had to give up temporarily.

The Land Rover walked along the main road for a while, then turned into an alley and stopped in front of a restaurant. The store had a large front, with a black plaque and gold characters, and red lanterns hung on both sides.

When the waiter saw the car, he smiled like a rose. He quickly opened the door and said, "Come in, please. Have you made a reservation? I'll take you over."

"No."

Zeng Shufei responded coldly and took Li Meng directly upstairs. The waiter was confused and had to retreat to the door in embarrassment.

When I arrived at the private room on the second floor, I opened the door and there were more than a dozen people sitting inside.

"grandmother!"

"Dad, Mom!"

"Uncle, aunt!"

He walked around to greet, and when it was a short-haired woman's turn, she suddenly paused and said with a smile: "Sister!"

"Xiao Fei, why are you so late? I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

The woman was none other than Zeng Yuewei, with delicate features, just like her younger brother, with a sharp look. She said something neither soft nor hard, and the aunt suddenly appeared again, pulled Li Meng over and introduced her: "Aunt, this is

She is Xiao Fei’s girlfriend. I fell in love with her after meeting her once. Can you see if she is a perfect match for our Xiao Fei, a talented man and a good looking woman?”

"Oh, this is Xiaomeng, right? Come on, come on, sit here with grandma, Xiaofei, come here too."

Grandma Zeng was not tall and had a kind face. She waved to the two of them to sit down and said: "Xiao Meng, I always heard Xiao Fei mention you, saying that you are gentle and beautiful. When I saw you today, oh, my grandson really does have one."

vision!"

"Thank you grandma, Xiaofei is also very nice." Li Meng was a little cautious.

"I heard that you are still studying?"

"Yes, I am a graduate student in Mindfulness."

"What are your plans for the future?"

"Well, I'm majoring in Chinese. I might get a teacher's certificate and become a teacher in a school."

"Oh, it's good to be a teacher, teach and educate people. I just didn't study well back then and suffered a lot. It's not bad, not bad. Grandma supports me."

Bitch!

The conversation there was lively, but Zeng Yuewei snorted secretly: Bringing her girlfriend here specifically to please the old man is so shameless! She and her boyfriend had just broken up, so it was impossible to conjure one up out of thin air, but fortunately she had other preparations.

In fact, the relationship between the siblings was good at first, but later they became incompatible. There was no way, how could such a big company with more than one billion assets not be tempted?

The banquet was filled with members of the family, there were no formalities, and the atmosphere was lively. Although Grandma Zeng had retired, her vision and experience from working in the shopping mall for half her life had not faded. She could naturally tell that these younger generations were full of little thoughts.

She didn't bother to care. As long as she didn't make a mess, she was happy to be a kind-hearted old lady. Especially her grandson and granddaughter. In her opinion, competition with each other was necessary, but it should not exceed the bottom line of family affection.

After three rounds of wine and five delicious dishes, Zeng Guoxiang, as the head of the family, stood up and said: "Let me say a few words, today is my mother's birthday and it is also a family banquet. Everyone has their own busy schedules, and it is not easy to get together. Come,

Let’s raise a toast together and wish the old man good health and longevity!”

Everyone stood up with a roar and called them different names:

"Happy birthday mom!"

"Happy birthday, aunt!"

"Happy birthday grandma!"

They clinked their glasses and drank it all in one gulp. Only the old lady took a sip of the warm wine.

Seeing that the timing was right, Zeng Yuewei picked up a gift box and said with a smile: "Grandma, this is a gift I specially prepared. Although it is not expensive, it took a lot of effort, so don't dislike it."

"Hey, what gifts are you preparing? I know you are filial... Weiwei, then I will open them."

The old lady took the gift box and unpacked it. Inside was a small brocade box and a long incense tube. When she opened it again, she saw that there were strings of dark brown wooden beads in the brocade box and naturally in the incense tube.

Incense stick.

The old lady recognized the goods and saw that the beads had a mellow oil color, natural texture, and elegant and long taste. She knew they were top quality and praised: "Weiwei is serious about it. Is this Qiongzhou Water Sinking?"

"Grandma is so awesome, she hit the right mark right away!"

Zeng Yuewei leaned forward, pursed her lips and said with a smile, "I went to Qiongzhou to choose this ingredient myself, and almost got deceived by others. And the incense stick is also a good soothing incense, which is most suitable for you."

"Well, not bad, not bad."
