Zhao Feiyang also got out of the car and took out two boxes of tea leaves from the back of the car for him to take to Mr. Xu. Xu Chunliang collected the tea leaves and asked him to sit in the room. Zhao Feiyang said that he still had something to deal with and would come to visit another day.
In fact, it was mainly because he and Xu Chunliang no longer had much in common.
The car continued to drive for a certain distance facing the setting sun. Zhao Feiyang suddenly felt a little upset. He asked the driver to stop the car and decided to walk back along the plank road of the ancient Yellow River.
The weather today was unusually warm. Zhao Feiyang held his hand on the stone railing by the river and looked at the river that had turned green. Thinking of Xu Chunliang's words just now, he suddenly realized that he had not contacted Xu Ying for a long time, not even during the New Year.
He forgot to send her New Year's greetings, and she did the same. Although he didn't want to admit it, time and space were quietly widening the distance between them.
Zhao Feiyang took out his mobile phone and dialed Xu Ying's number. No one answered the first time, so he waited for a minute and dialed again.
This time Xu Ying answered the phone: "Feiyang, why do you have time to make a call?"
"Isn't it a little late to wish you a happy New Year?"
Xu Ying said meaningfully: "As long as you are determined, it is never too late."
The two laughed at the same time, and Zhao Feiyang told her about his upcoming marriage, hoping that his confidante could come back to Dongzhou to attend his wedding.
Xu Ying's reaction was very real and she told him directly that she might not have time.
Zhao Feiyang found that Xu Ying seemed to be much alienated from him, and he no longer had the urge to speak freely to Xu Ying in the past. Time and space unknowingly formed a barrier between them, and the two ended the call after saying a few polite words to each other.
.
The setting sun has not changed, the running water remains the same, Zhao Feiyang looks at his elongated figure, is he the only one who has changed?
When Xu Chunliang walked into Huichun Hall, he saw his grandfather prescribing medicine for people. Recently, he has rarely been seen attending medical consultations in person.
Xu Changshan patiently helped the patient prescribe the medicine and sent him outside the door. This was a habit the old man had developed over the years.
After returning, he saw Xu Chunliang drinking tea. Xu Changshan smiled and said, "Are you willing to come back?"
Xu Chunliang said: "I now understand what it means to be loyal and filial. The boss asked me to take three days of compensatory leave. Why do you still sit in the clinic in person?" Recently, it is rare to see my grandfather consulting patients in person at Huichun Hall.
The old man has entered a state of quasi-retirement.
Xu Changshan told him that Zheng Pei'an sent his sister-in-law to the high-speed rail station and would be back soon.
While the two men were chatting, Zheng Pei'an walked in from outside: "Chunliang is back?"
Xu Chunliang said: "Just arrived."
Zheng Pei'an suggested going out to eat. Xu Changshan was old and had no appetite, so he let the two of them go. He wanted to rest at home. He remembered something. Yinhu Guandi sent Xu Chunliang a letter yesterday.
Xu Chunliang opened it and saw inside it was a notice of moving in. Xu Jiaxuan came back last time to buy a villa for him. He just had a two-day break and could go through the closing procedures tomorrow.
Xu Chunliang and Zheng Pei'an did not go far and went to the newly opened home-cooked restaurant next door. Although they were from two generations and were twenty years apart in age, they had the same temperament and had become friends who could talk freely.
Xu Chunliang saw that Zheng Pei'an was not in a good mood today, and remembered that he had just sent his sister-in-law away. It was probably related to his sister-in-law Xu Jiawen.
After two glasses of wine, Zheng Pei'an told the truth. He confessed to Xu Jiawen today, but was rejected by Xu Jiawen. Xu Jiawen clearly told him that he didn't want to think about relationships recently. The most important thing at the moment was to take care of his family and let him
Put the extra energy into your career.
Zheng Pei'an originally thought that Xu Jiawen would have a chance when he returned to work in the Mainland after the divorce, but now it seems that she only regards him as a friend. Zheng Pei'an couldn't help but feel a little frustrated, and even thought that Xu Jiawen disliked her for not wanting to make progress. When she reached middle age, her career had been slow.
Having accomplished nothing, it’s no wonder she looks down on herself.
Xu Chunliang said deliberately: "It's not sweet to be strong. Since my sister-in-law is not interested in you, you shouldn't insist on it. How about I help you introduce another one."
Zheng Pei'an looked at him in astonishment: "Do you think this is human language?"
Xu Chunliang said: "Why are they not human words? There is no grass anywhere in the world. You can't hang yourself on a tree."
"I'm different from you. I have my feet in two different places. I can't do things half-heartedly, so I have chosen your sister-in-law. In my eyes, all other women combined cannot compare to her."
"Relationships are all about mutual love. If she doesn't like you, no matter how hard you try, it will be in vain."
"Haven't you heard that sincerity can make gold and stone open?" Zheng Pei'an drank a glass of wine and immediately became full of fighting spirit: "You want me to give up on your sister-in-law, there is no way, I have persisted for decades and there is nothing left.
In this half of my life, didn’t she ask me to do my career? I will show it to her.”
Xu Chunliang gave him a thumbs up and had to admire Lao Zheng's perseverance. He encouraged him by the way: "In my opinion, my sister-in-law is not uninterested in you. The main reason is that she has just divorced and
With a daughter, unlike your old bachelor, she has worries."
Zheng Pei'an nodded and said: "I think so too. Do you think that if I can make a career, there will be no obstacles between us and your sister-in-law will accept me?"
Xu Chunliang really couldn't bear to hit Zheng Pei'an anymore and encouraged him: "I think so too."
Zheng Peian said: "By the way, do you really think your sister-in-law likes me?"
Xu Chunliang said: "Nonsense, if she doesn't care about you at all, how can she support my grandfather in accepting you as his apprentice? You have nothing to do all day long to be attentive, can't she see your motives?"
"I have nothing to do to be attentive? Do I like her, that's right, or you are smart and can be seen clearly, so tell me, does she like me?"
This question made it difficult for Xu Chunliang to answer, and he said perfunctorily: "It's not annoying anyway."
"If you don't hate it, you just like it." Zheng Pei'an was in a better mood.
They drank a glass of wine together. Zheng Pei'an remembered an incident that had been widely circulated recently and asked Xu Chunliang if he had just set up Changxing. Now many people said that this guy was eating Changxing's food and smashing Changxing's pot. He advised Xu Chunliang to restrain himself.
Point, after all, he is currently seconded from Changxing, and the staff is still in Changxing Hospital. Offending the director will not do any good.
Xu Chunliang briefly explained the situation and told Zheng Pei'an that he came back with Zhao Feiyang today. There was no bad blood between them. Zhao Feiyang even invited himself to attend his wedding.
Zheng Peian said: "The reputation of Zhao Feiyang and his wife is not very good now. Changxing has become their mom-and-pop shop. You should keep a distance from them in the future."
Xu Chunliang said: "I don't have any close friendship with them."
Zheng Pei'an said: "You may not know that Pei Lin is already a director of Carnival Department Store. If it were not Zhao Feiyang, what qualifications does she have to join the board of directors of Carnival Department Store? And what qualifications does she have to be the general manager of Hua Nian Health?
"
Xu Chunliang knew that the actual controllers of both Carnival Department Store and Hua Nian were Tang Jingwei, and anyone with a discerning eye would know that there was an exchange of interests. However, he had temporarily left Hua Nian and was too lazy to comment on the rights and wrongs of Hua Nian. Zhao Feiyang and Zhao Feiyang
You can play however you want.
Although he and Zhao Feiyang could not be called friends, they could not be called enemies. On the way back today, he deliberately mentioned Xu Ying just because he wanted Zhao Feiyang and Xu Ying to have a good chat. In his opinion, Xu Ying was everything.
You can see clearly, and Zhao Feiyang should be able to hear what Xu Ying said.
Xu Chunliang said: "Don't feel unbalanced. Zhao Feiyang has already made his choice from the day he resigned from public office."
"He can make a choice for himself, but he cannot make a choice on behalf of all our employees. Why should he stake the future and fate of all our medical staff?" Zheng Pei'an represents the thoughts of a large number of people in Changxing.
Xu Chunliang laughed: "Uncle Zheng, you were not like this in the past, what happened?" In fact, he understood that Zheng Pei'an should have been a little stimulated after being rejected by his sister-in-law.
Zheng Pei'an said: "Sometimes I really want to quit, but now I won't be given a leave of absence without pay, otherwise I would still want to go out and try my luck."
Xu Chunliang said: "Are you planning to leave Dongzhou?"
Zheng Pei'an said: "You don't have to leave. The Traditional Chinese Medicine Department of Changxing Hospital is neither alive nor dead, and the hospital itself doesn't pay much attention to it. I can't make much money if I stay in Changxing, so I might as well go out and give it a try."
Xu Chunliang said: "That's just right. You can carry forward Huichun Hall and do a good job."
Zheng Pei'an said: "That's not what I meant."
Xu Chunliang said: "Speak out your thoughts and I will communicate with grandpa later."
Zheng Peian said: "Although Huichun Tang is a time-honored brand, its scale is still too small. The current Huichun Tang is actually a small clinic. If it wants to develop, it must expand its scale and investment."
Xu Chunliang said: "Are you planning to open a hospital?"
Zheng Peian said: "I have this idea. Our Dongzhou Chemical Machinery Factory has a ready-made hospital, but it has been closed due to poor management. I want to contract it and open an obstetrics hospital."
"Obstetrics..." Xu Chunliang was stunned for a moment, thinking that Zheng Pei'an was going to open a traditional Chinese medicine hospital. After working on it for a long time, he was going to open an obstetrics hospital.
Zheng Pei'an said: "The most profitable thing now is obstetrics. The profit is high and the risk is low."
Xu Chunliang said: "Stop it first. Are you talking about opening a maternity hospital under the Huichun Tang brand?"
Zheng Pei'an said: "No, I'm not talking to you about the same thing. Huichun Tang is Huichun Tang, and the obstetrics hospital is an obstetrics hospital. How could I use the Huichun Tang brand to open an obstetrics hospital?"
Xu Chunliang looked at Zheng Pei'an and made sure that he was not confused. Zheng Pei'an was obviously stimulated by his sister-in-law's rejection. He wanted to do something great for Xu Jiawen, and he didn't want Xu Jiawen to look down on him.
Xu Chunliang said: "It's better not to discuss this matter with grandpa. If you open a traditional Chinese medicine hospital, he might agree to it. A maternity hospital, hehe! Aren't you afraid of being kicked out of the school by him?"
