Just like that, Qin Jian introduced Xie Meng to the old bartender.
Fortunately, when Qin Jian told the old bartender that Xie Meng might become his future subordinate, the old bartender became serious.
On the way to dinner, the two communicated sometimes in Norwegian and sometimes in Chinese.
Qin Jian heard it clearly.
The two of them were talking about Bergen from Oslo at one time, and then from Oslo's seaport export issues to Norway's university system.
If this was a preliminary interview, Qin Jian felt that Xie Meng should have already received half of the employment letter.
"Uncle, dumplings?"
Qin Jian parked the car in front of a dumpling shop.
The old bartender was very happy with this arrangement. He told Xie Meng that he liked Chinese dumplings the most.
So the three of them got off the car and walked into the dumpling shop.
The three of them ordered two kilograms of dumplings.
While waiting, the topic originally revolved around whether garlic is considered a vegetable. The old bartender, who is a supporter of Zhengfang, was talking about the nutritional value of garlic.
The conversation suddenly changed and he asked Xiang Xie Meng how he met Qin Jian.
Xie Meng calmly told how she met Qin Jian on the plane, and then described in an incredible tone how she felt when she learned from her parents that her new neighbors were Qin Jian's family.
The old bartender was also surprised after hearing this. But regarding the encounter on the plane, he knew that it was when Qin Jian went to Norway to find him.
It's just that classmate Jian never mentioned this "love affair" to him.
...
After the meal, the three of them returned to Yangcheng, and Qin Jian drove the car to the door of the reserved hotel.
Xie Meng was waiting in the car. He got off the car and went into the hotel with the old bartender to check in.
After three minutes of processing, the two of them got out of the elevator and entered the room.
"How about it, sir, how about giving her to you who is almost hungry?"
"It seems pretty good so far," the old bartender said. "Now is the time when we are short of manpower. Let her go to the factory with me tomorrow."
Qin Jian nodded. He had something to do tomorrow and couldn't accompany the old bartender. Having Xie Meng, a local, with him would give him some peace of mind, although he had nothing to worry about.
"Sir, let me remind you, she is my neighbor."
Qin Jian had to clarify some issues at the beginning because he didn't want anything to happen.
The old bartender curled his lips and said seriously: "She is just a child in my eyes, and so are you."
As he spoke, he took out a package of things from the box and handed it to Qin Jian.
Qin Jian took it and took a look, and he was suddenly moved, "Thank you, uncle."
"Happy Valentine's Day." The old bartender smiled, squatted down and closed the suitcase, "By the way, Jian, please arrange a time recently. I want to have a meal with your family before you leave, in Warsaw.
They treated me to a very unforgettable dinner.”
Qin Jian calculated the time: "It will be noon the day after tomorrow. My sister will go back to Haishi the day after tomorrow evening."
The two agreed on a time, and Qin Jian left the room.
It was already 21:23, and he called He Jing.
"Sister, are you finished over there?"
"Okay, I'll pick you up later."
After leaving the hotel, when he returned to the car, Xie Meng was busy in front of his laptop.
On the way to send Xie Meng home, Qin Jian asked Xie Meng how she felt, and Xie Meng only replied that she was under a lot of pressure.
Stress is not a bad thing.
Qin Jian admired Xie Meng's attitude towards work.
After the car stopped downstairs in the community, Xie Meng put away her notebook and saw that Qin Jian had no intention of getting out of the car, so she asked, "Aren't you going home?"
Qin Jian: "You go up first, I'm going to pick up my sister."
Xie Meng sighed: "It's great to have a younger brother."
Qin Jian: "You can ask your uncle and aunt to give birth to one for you."
Xie Meng: "Good idea."
The two of them laughed.
Qin Jian: "Just contact you tomorrow, I won't participate."
Xie Meng: "okok, goodbye big star, I will treat you to dinner another day."
Ten minutes later, Qin Jian drove to the door of a restaurant.
The street was slightly quiet, and outside the car window, a stray dog lay on the steps in front of Dayang's stationery store.
He waited for about seven or eight minutes, and three female figures walked out of the restaurant door, and He Jing was among them.
He Jing and the two girls said goodbye with a smile.
This scene probably still stayed in Qin Jian's memory seven years ago, when He Jing was still a high school girl.
He felt a little emotional for a moment, but even now it seems that my sister is still quite young.
The two girls left, and He Jing walked towards the car.
"Not drinking?"
"No, Lin Xia is pregnant. It would be pointless for Liu Mei and I to drink together."
"Tsk, tsk, Sister Xia is pregnant, so let's see her off, most of the night."
"No, Liu Mei will send her off. Let's go home directly."
"good."
On the way home, Qin Jian talked to He Jing about today's meeting, "Xie Meng is not bad. I feel that she cares about her. I guess her business ability is not bad either."
"That's good."
——
After returning home, the family of four sat together and watched TV for a while. Qin Jian talked about lunch the day after tomorrow. The couple had no objections, and He Jing had no problem.
But when the children were about to leave again, Fang Xuehua's mood was obviously a little lower than the previous few days.
After Qin Jian returned to the bedroom before going to bed, Fang Xuehua came to He Jing's bedroom.
What exactly the mother and daughter talked about and how long they talked is unknown.
After Qin Jian took Fatty's call, he called Fang Xiaoyu and then fell asleep.
During the phone call with Fatty, the two of them tacitly understood each other and did not mention the phone call at Fang Xiaoyu's house that night. It would not be accurate to say that they had tacitly understood each other.
Qin Jian forgot about it, but Fatty didn't mention it on purpose.
Fatty told Qin Jian two things.
The first thing was that the purpose of his call was to inform Qin Jian that tomorrow's meeting place had been temporarily changed to the snack restaurant Boiled Fish on Bolhou Street.
The second thing he told Qin Jian was that Boer's 15th grade students would also be gathering in Nanshi tomorrow. He asked Qin Jian if he could bring Shi Yue and Fang Xiaoyu with him when he came to Nanshi tomorrow.
Qin Jian agreed, so after hanging up the phone, he called Fang Xiaoyu.
——
The next morning, when Qin Jian woke up, morning exercises had already begun in the bedroom opposite.
After getting up and washing up, he picked up the things his parents had prepared for Lu Desheng and left the house.
At nine o'clock, I gathered with the two girls in front of Xiaoyu Sichuan Restaurant, and then the three of them took a taxi and drove to Nanshi.
At noon, the fat man was clamoring to be a host, and the five Bo brothers and sisters, including Li Qiye, had a hot pot meal near Yuehai Square.
It was probably because of the Chinese New Year that everyone had greased their mouths, so no one used chopsticks during the whole meal.
Fortunately, the topics are pretty good.
For example, Li Qiye’s study abroad trip to Ukraine.
For example, Shi Yue found a new partner during the Chinese New Year.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the five people left the hot pot restaurant and rushed to their respective bureaus.
Fatty and Li Qiye went to the Internet cafe in front of Boermen, and Qin Jian went to Lu Desheng's house.
After coming out of Lu Desheng's house, he rushed to the Internet cafe to have a fight with the fat man.
At this time, the 2014 Bor group was becoming more and more lively.
As six o'clock approaches, one familiar figure after another appears on the familiar street downstairs of the Internet cafe.
