Chen Feng specifically mentioned that Wu Mengting just didn’t want her mother to think too much.
Sure enough, after hearing what Chen Feng said, Zhao Xiaolan's stern eyes softened.
Guo Mengyao also hurriedly came forward and said hello to Zhao Xiaolan with a smile on her face: "Hello, aunt, Chen Feng and I were classmates in high school. We had a good relationship in high school, and we have been keeping in touch on and off since then. I used to
They all live in Guangcheng, and not many of us from Linnan come back. However, last year I came back to my hometown in Linnan to develop, and I even started a business partnership with Chen Feng. Now Chen Feng is also my partner."
Guo Mengyao introduced the news like this, and also specifically said that she and Chen Feng have always been in contact. This is undoubtedly trying to strengthen her relationship with Chen Feng.
In fact, after they graduated from high school, they had not seen each other for more than ten years and had no contact. They reunited last year after a long absence, and then they had contact.
But can Chen Feng expose her lie? Obviously not.
"Hello to you, too." Zhao Xiaolan looked at Guo Mengyao with a gentle expression, and asked with a smile, "What kind of business do you want to do in partnership with Ah Feng?"
Chen Feng didn't want his family to know that he invested 30 million in Guo Mengyao's company, so he quickly said: "Mengyao is in the cosmetics business, and her business is not bad, so I partnered with her and invested some money in her company. It's not a lot."
"
After finishing speaking, Chen Feng also glanced at Guo Mengyao.
Of course Guo Mengyao understood. Although she didn't know why Chen Feng wanted to hide it from the family, she still cooperated and said: "Yes, I have always been in the cosmetics business in Guangcheng. I have my own cosmetics brand, but I mainly find people.
OEM production. Last year, I planned to produce and sell it myself, so I bought a cosmetics factory here. Then Chen Feng also took some money to partner with me and became a shareholder of our cosmetics company."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xiaolan frowned slightly and looked at Chen Feng: "How come you never told your family about this?"
Chen Feng smiled and said: "I was afraid that you would worry or overthink it, so I didn't tell you."
Zhao Xiaolan was not so easy to fool, she frowned and asked: "Then how much money did you invest?"
"not many."
"How much exactly?"
"One or two...million."
Chen Feng had no choice but to tell the truth about this matter to his family, lest it irritate them too much.
"Is it true that you make so much money from stock trading? Another one or two million." Zhao Xiaolan looked at Chen Feng with some suspicion.
"I'm lucky." Chen Feng said calmly, "Otherwise, how do you think I made all this money? It's not all from winning the lottery or robbing banks, right?"
Zhao Xiaolan thought about it. Her son knew that although he was smart, he had never been very courageous, and he had been a decent person since he was a child and would not do anything illegal or disciplinary.
"I don't want to interfere with your affairs, as long as you know what you are doing."
Zhao Xiaolan said with a pun.
"Auntie, you don't have to doubt Chen Feng's ability to make money, and he won't do anything illegal, so don't worry."
Guo Mengyao defended Chen Feng with a very righteous look.
"It seems you know our Ah Feng very well." Zhao Xiaolan said with a smile.
Guo Mengyao also smiled and nodded and said: "I have known Chen Feng for more than ten years. Of course I know him well, and we are very compatible. When the company was reorganized last year, he helped me a lot. Now our company is developing very well."
Well, profits have grown rapidly in the past few months, sales have exceeded 100 million, and total sales this year are expected to exceed 200 million, or even 300 million."
Zhao Xiaolan originally thought that Guo Mengyao's cosmetics company was a small company. When she heard what she said, she couldn't help being slightly surprised and couldn't help but ask: "With sales exceeding 100 million, how much can you make?"
Guo Mengyao smiled slightly and replied: "The profits of our cosmetics are relatively high, but our costs are also relatively high. In addition to production costs, there are also publicity costs and channel costs. Apart from these costs, we still have
Our company's profit is about 30% of sales."
"If it's 100 million, wouldn't you have earned 30 million?" Zhao Xiaolan was a little stunned.
Guo Mengyao smiled calmly and nodded: "Absolutely."
This was the first time Chen Feng heard about this profit margin. He had invested 30 million in her before, but he hadn't even checked the accounts properly.
Therefore, Chen Feng was also a little surprised by the huge profits from this cosmetics, but if you think about it, you can understand that cosmetics are inherently a lucrative business, and it is a secret known to the whole world that women and children can make a lot of money.
When Zhao Xiaolan was still waiting to ask again, Wu Mengting just finished breakfast and walked over from the back room.
"Sister Mengyao, long time no see." Wu Mengting took the initiative to greet Guo Mengyao with a bright smile.
"Yeah, long time no see." Guo Mengyao was also smiling, and she immediately stepped forward to put down the gift box she was holding in her hand, then opened her arms and hugged Wu Mengting.
Her behavior made Wu Mengting a little confused. Although the two knew each other, they were not very familiar with each other. She was not used to hugging each other so affectionately.
"Haha, I knew you were playing at Chen Feng's house this time, so I came over to meet you right away. I have never played here before, and you and Chen Feng are going to take me to have a good time this time."
Guo Mengyao looked very familiar and close to Wu Mengting, which made Chen Feng on the side feel a bit toothache.
"Okay, of course, I can take you to play now." Wu Mengting agreed happily.
"Then don't be too anxious. I just came here and haven't said a few words to Auntie yet."
Zhao Xiaolan smiled and said: "What do you have to say to me, an old woman? You young people can go play by yourself first. Come back home for dinner at noon. Ah Feng, Xiao Ting, you entertain Mengyao well."
"Thank you, Auntie." Guo Mengyao said with a bright smile, "I have always heard from Chen Feng that the food you cook is delicious, so I will try the food you cook for lunch."
"Okay, I'll cook a few more dishes of my specialty for lunch, and you can eat more." Zhao Xiaolan is still very confident in her cooking skills.
"That's great. I'm in a good mood today. Auntie, you are so kind! When I see you, you are very kind, just like my mother."
Guo Mengyao flattered Zhao Xiaolan like a little girl. Although Zhao Xiaolan felt a little relieved to see her like this, she was also a little embarrassed. After all, the two had just met.
Both Chen Feng and Wu Mengting couldn't stand it anymore.
Chen Feng spoke first: "Mengyao, let's set off now. I'll take you to an old street here."
Wu Mengting also said: "After visiting the old street, let's go to the Taiyin Palace. There are many murals and a big well with beautiful koi in the well. Let's go."
As Wu Mengting said that, she took her hand and walked out. Guo Mengyao couldn't refuse, so she could only say to Zhao Xiaolan: "Auntie, let's go play first and come back for dinner at noon. Please excuse me."
"No trouble, I'll call you when the food is ready."
"Okay, we will be back right away when the time comes."
…
Wu Mengting pulled Guo Mengyao out of the Chen family gate more than ten steps away and then let go, and the smiles on each other's faces disappeared.
Although they didn't point it out directly, they are both women and they fall in love with a man at the same time. How can they really live in peace with each other? If they don't directly fight, they are very calm.
"Have you had breakfast?" Of course Chen Feng sensed something was wrong in the atmosphere and immediately asked Guo Mengyao to divert their attention.
"No. Is there anything delicious on the street here?" Guo Mengyao asked.
"Noodles, glutinous rice, steamed buns, fried dough sticks, soy milk, milk, etc., and wontons. The wontons here are quite good, why don't you try them?"
"Okay, let's go eat wontons."
So, Chen Feng took the two of them to a breakfast shop on the old street. The main breakfast was glutinous rice and wontons.
The old street is relative to the new street where Chen Feng's family is located. Most of the houses here were built twenty or thirty years ago. In the past, the old street was the center of the town. Later, the new street was diverted. The people here
The traffic has dropped a lot, but there are still a lot of shops.
This breakfast shop is one of them. It has a history of 20 to 30 years and has been passed down to two generations. Chen Feng used to come here often to eat when he was at home.
Although Chen Feng and Wu Mengting had already eaten, they both ordered. Chen Feng ordered a portion of glutinous rice and wontons, and the two women each had a bowl of wontons.
The glutinous rice here feels less delicious than before, with some cutting corners. Chen Feng even suspected that the rice was not glutinous rice. After all, glutinous rice and shrimp are more expensive now, and glutinous rice here usually only costs three yuan a serving. In the countryside,
It's too expensive and no one will eat it, so we can only reduce costs.
However, the wontons here still taste the same as before, with thin skin and plenty of meat. The three of them were satisfied with the wontons. A small bowl of eight, plus a few green vegetables, costs eight yuan. In their case,
It's not cheap in the countryside.
After eating the wontons, Chen Feng, the landowner, took his two girls to play on the old streets. Some of the houses were made of wood and were at least seventy or eighty years old.
Chen Feng also specially took them to see the ruins of an old house at the end of the street. Now there is only a two-person-high section of stone and brick wall and an ancient style gate with a historical atmosphere. From here, they can also see
It shows how wealthy this landowner's family was back then. Unfortunately, everything has been blown away by wind and rain, and now only this little is left. The rest of the original site has been occupied by dense modern floor-to-ceiling houses.
After visiting the old street, Chen Feng took them to visit the Taiyin Palace. During this period, the two women slowly started talking and laughing again, which made Chen Feng's originally worried heart slowly relax.
Until Zhao Xiaolan turned on the phone and called them back for dinner, nothing bad happened to the two women, and they acted like normal friends.
This made Chen Feng very satisfied with them.
The two women must know this in their hearts. No matter how they feel about each other in their hearts, they can still maintain a friendly attitude on the surface.
that's enough.
When the three of them returned home, not only Chen Dayong was there, but also Chen Rui and Li Guihong.
Under normal circumstances, because he has to take care of the business of the car beauty shop, the owner Chen Rui will not come back for lunch or dinner many times, and his family will send it to him.
And now Chen Rui goes home to eat, no doubt because of Guo Mengyao's appearance.
Facing Chen Feng's family, Guo Mengyao seemed very calm and calm. After Chen Feng's introduction, he greeted Chen Dayong, Chen Rui and his wife one by one.
During the meal, Guo Mengyao also chatted and laughed with the Chen family, especially flattering Zhao Xiaolan a lot. In comparison, Wu Mengting seemed a bit taciturn.
After finally finishing the meal, Chen Rui and his wife left first, and then Chen Dayong also left. The three women were left to clear away the dishes together, while Chen Feng sat aside and checked his cell phone.
"Mengyao, will you stay and play in the afternoon?"
Zhao Xiaolan only helped clear the table, and Guo and Wu were rushing to do the rest of the work. She just stood aside and watched, and then asked Guo Mengyao.
"Well, things in the company are not busy these two days, and my subordinates in the company can handle some minor problems. So, I plan to give myself a two-day holiday."
"Oh, then let Meng Ting play with you. Ah Feng has something else to do in the afternoon."
Chen Feng looked at Zhao Xiaolan with some surprise, wondering what else he had to do in the afternoon.
"Didn't your dad grow a lot of potatoes before? They've ripened in the past few days. You go dig them with him."
When Chen Feng heard that he was going to dig potatoes with his father, he didn't have any objection. He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go after a short rest."
"Do you want to dig potatoes? It must be fun, then I'll go with you."
Guo Mengyao said with curiosity and yearning.
Zhao Xiaolan advised: "I'm going to dig in the fields. It's very dirty and very tiring. You'd better not go."
Guo Mengyao said in a coquettish tone: "Auntie, I have never dug potatoes in my whole life. Since I happened to meet you today, let me go and see it. It will definitely be fun. Please!"
Zhao Xiaolan couldn't bear what she heard and said, dumbfounded: "This is farm work, what's so fun about it?"
"Auntie, just let me go." Guo Mengyao trailed off and continued to act coquettishly.
Chen Feng had goosebumps. He had never noticed that Guo Mengyao had such coquettish skills before. Although her voice in bed had a similar tone, at least she never acted like this in front of Chen Feng.
general performance.
All we can say is that Guo Mengyao, a woman who looks like a strong woman, also has a soft side, and she is very cute.
"Oh, okay, okay. If you want to go, just go and wear an apron, otherwise your clothes will get dirty."
"Okay, Auntie, you're so kind."
Guo Mengyao came over in small steps, with a smile on her face, took Zhao Xiaolan's arm affectionately, and shook her. Zhao Xiaolan completely lost her temper.
There is no one like me who can be so fawning and obedient.
Chen Feng couldn't stand it anymore. He thought to himself that you are already thirty years old after all, and you have the character of a strong woman. But now you are like this, what's the matter?
Wu Mengting, who was washing dishes over there, looked a little stiff. She didn't expect that Guo Mengyao would be so "cheesy", so thick-skinned, and flatter Zhao Xiaolan so much. Of course, a wave of emotion immediately surged in her heart.
A strong sense of crisis.
Zhao Xiaolan also couldn't stand Guo Mengyao's clinginess. After being shaken by Guo Mengyao's arm for a while, she immediately stood up and said she wanted to go to the front to check out the store, and then hurriedly walked out.
Chen Feng looked at Guo Mengyao as if he were an alien, while Guo Mengyao raised her chin towards Chen Feng with a hint of pride.
Chen Feng gave her a thumbs up, and then quickly pointed his thumb down to express contempt.
Guo Mengyao immediately glared at him.
