In this life, I will no longer be a childhood sweetheart

Chapter 261 Visiting Yan Qiuwen's House

After staying at home for two nights, Su Zelin ran to Lin'an again.

First is the annual meeting.

Opening the market in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Lu, the company's personnel structure has become larger, and the scale and budget of the second annual meeting of the new century have been raised to a higher level. Together with contracting hotels, year-end bonuses, lottery and other expenses, it has burned enough 100 million.

Two groups of special guests also came to this annual meeting.

The first batch was Lao Ma and several high-level Ahri.

New Century and Taojin, which signed a long-term contract, are already long-term partners and allies, and the relationship between the two parties is good. Later, Su Zelin went to Ari's headquarters to find Lao Ma for tea twice, so he invited these people to come and support him.

The second batch of guests was unexpected by Su Zelin - Yang Ma's interview team.

Reports from the news media in Zhejiang Province, Shenghai, and Suzhou are of course indispensable. However, it was a surprise that Yang Ma asked to send reporters to Lin'an to cover the annual meeting of the New Century. I wonder if it was the last time I cooperated with the Gold Rush Spending 500 million yuan to buy value-added services caught Yang's mother's attention.

For those who intend to go to the whole country and aim at the new century of domestic digital chain giants, Yang Ma's interview is undoubtedly exciting and good news.

It means that the influence of this enterprise has a faint tendency to radiate the whole country. As long as it works hard for another year and a half in the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Lu regions, it will be able to impact the entire Xiaguo market.

After the Yangma news was broadcast, people complaining about the New Century people who have more money than others have become rich and self-willed.

Then two days later, the Big Three of the New Century also became the guests at the Gold Rush Annual Meeting. Ari reciprocated, and Lao Ma was really grateful to Su Zelin. The 500 million was a good start for the value-added services of the gold rush. The promotion went smoother than expected.

After attending the gold panning annual meeting, when leaving the hotel, Su Zelin suddenly remembered something, took out his mobile phone and made a call: "Hey, Qiuwen, I plan to visit the house tomorrow, can you ask if your parents are free?"

This is the last business before the Chinese New Year. I have made an appointment before, and I have to go to Yan's house, otherwise it will be rude.

"You are free, come here."

From the microphone came Yan Qiuwen's calm and emotional voice like a biochemical girl.

Her father is a scholar who doesn't like to socialize. Whenever he has time, he studies knowledge or spends time with his family. Others understand the personalities of the couple and usually rarely disturb them. Guests are very rare, and they are idle at home during the Chinese New Year.

"Okay, then I'll be there tomorrow."

"Wait!"

"..."

In the evening of the next day, the lakeside villa.

When Su Zelin came to Yan's house according to the address Yan Qiuwen sent him, he was a little surprised.

Despite the inconspicuous appearance of this old villa, it is hidden among the trees, and it is even a bit difficult to find.

However, considering the golden location on the edge of the West Lake, it is not an exaggeration to call it a courtyard house in Lin'an!
Yan Qiuwen's parents are both professors and scholars, and they are affiliated with Guojia Academy of Social Sciences. Su Zelin expected that her family conditions should be very good, but she didn't expect to have such a residence.

It seems that the two couples had an investment vision when they were young. Now, it is not easy to buy such a lakeside villa with money. It is regarded as a status symbol, unless it goes bankrupt, who would be willing to change hands casually.

Su Zelin pressed the doorbell, and after a while, the vermilion lacquered door opened.

The person who opened the door was Yan Qiuwen. The Yan family didn't hire a servant, so the family of three lived here.

The cold wind in the twelfth lunar month, and a lot of snow, the temperature is a bit low. Today, Yan Qiuwen is wearing a cape-shaped white fox fur shawl and hooded coat. The shape is slightly retro, but it fits her temperament very well.

This style of clothes has appeared on many women in costume dramas, but it is not a small test for the appearance, figure and temperament of the actors.

If you can't hold it, you will look like an upstart.

It's very fairy to hold it. For example, Yan Qiuwen now wears a simple and elegant ancient style oblique bangs braided hair, which made Su Zelin, who has read countless women, couldn't help but take a few more glances.

This was the first time he had seen Qiu Wen in this appearance, she really looked like the young lady who was born in a scholarly family in an ancient costume drama and was well educated.

"Come in, my parents are waiting for you."

Yan Qiuwen closed the door, moved her lotus feet lightly, and led the way.

In the wind and snow, the lonely and arrogant figure is like an ethereal and cold spirit fox.

Su Zelin stopped by to observe the environment of the courtyard. There was no luxurious decoration, and there was even a small vegetable garden. It seemed that Yan Qiuwen's parents liked rural life very much.

This is the most prosperous place in Lin'an, but it is also the quietest place, like a paradise.

It's a bit hidden in the city.

Entering the hall, you can smell a strong fragrance.

This kind of fragrance is very weird, like honey fragrance, frankincense and flower fragrance blend together, it smells very good, and the mood instantly calms down.

Agarwood!

Su Zelin quickly made a judgment.

This is exactly the smell of incense, because he also played with this thing in his previous life.

There are many effects of agarwood. The first is to purify indoor air, kill germs and viruses, especially in the flu season to prevent epidemics.

But the more important effect is to regulate emotions and relieve mood.

The aroma released when it burns can directly affect the central nervous system of humans, control anxiety, calm the mind, deeply relax the brain, and improve sleep quality.

In the previous life, after Qin Shiqing left, Su Zelin broke away from her parents. Su Zelin was extremely depressed and irritable for a while, and often suffered from insomnia at night. Later, he found this thing to soothe the nerves, and it was indeed useful.

There is an incense burner in the hall, and the aroma is curling up.

The furniture is all made of rosewood, which is antique, and there are large characters hanging on the walls.

"Peace leads to long distance", "Being willing", "Pure heart to be clear", "The best kindness is like water", "Tolerance is great, no deception is peace of mind"...

The styles of the big characters are different, but they are all distinctive, some are elegant and free, some are flowing, some are simple and elegant... It can be seen that they are from the hands of famous masters.

Most of these scholars like calligraphy and painting. This time, Su Zelin specially spent some money to find a calligraphy and painting by a famous local artist in Lin'an as a gift for his visit.

After all, if you want to continue to use other people's daughters, you have to spend some effort to please the two elders of the Yan family.

Taking a step back, even if Yan Qiuwen really didn't plan to stay after the internship, it would be beneficial to have a relationship with respected people like her parents, after all, she is an honorary member of the Academy of Social Sciences.

Father Yan did not look like an old pedant as he imagined, but a refined middle-aged man with a white face and beardless, he looked very easy-going.

As for Yan's mother, Yan Qiuwen looks alike to her, as if printed from a mold, but compared to her daughter's aloofness, Yan's mother always has a faint smile on her face.

Time has not left too many traces on this female professor, not even a single crow's feet can be seen in the corner of her eyes.

Yan Qiuwen stood with her mother, and they looked more like sisters.

The daughter looks mature, and the mother looks young, bringing age perception closer.

Some people are like this. When they are young, they are more mature than their peers, but when they approach middle age, they look younger and younger. It seems that this mother and daughter are of this type.

Later generations of Douyin often post short videos of mother and daughter distinguishing between mother and daughter. If Yan Qiuwen and her mother co-produced one, many netizens would probably not be able to tell them apart, and there would be a bunch of lsp comments below.

"Hello, uncle, auntie!"

When he came in front of the two, Su Zelin simply greeted them.

The professor is too polite, and it is easy to create distance.

I and Yan Qiuwen can be regarded as friends no matter what, and it is okay to call uncle and aunt.

"Hello, young man, we have heard about you from Qiuwen for a long time."

Yan Shiqian was kind and pleasant.

Tian Jinqiong pointed to the opposite chair and said with a smile: "Please sit down, don't be restrained, just treat it as your own home!"

"Thank you uncle and aunt!"

After taking his seat, Su Zelin presented the gift he brought.

The two of them didn't make any excuses, so they accepted it.

None of them are ostentatious.

Gifts include tea and calligraphy.

If you want to give gifts to scholars, you can basically choose these two things.

"The heart of the Tao is as quiet as jade hidden in mountains, and the taste of books is as clear as fish in water. Good sentences and good words!"

Yan Shiqian unfolded the calligraphy and looked at it, and he clapped his hands in admiration.

It seems that of the two couples, he is the one who loves calligraphy and painting, and Yan Qiuwen immediately went to hang them in the living room.

Several people were chatting casually in the hall, and then Tian Jinqiong was surprised to find that the real mental age of this young man was really above 35, and he was more mature and calm than a young man of this age.

His demeanor, movements, tone, and inadvertent small details all reflect a lot of things when he speaks, and he is surprisingly sophisticated.

Although he behaved very modestly, he still had the aura of a high-ranking person faintly. This is the kind of aura that is very successful in his career and can see all the small mountains at a glance. It is like Shen Yue, like diving into the abyss. It is not sharp, but reserved Low key.

This is something that Yan Qiuwen didn't see, but Tian Jinqiong did. After all, the Taoism is deeper, but it made Yan's mother very puzzled.

It stands to reason that although Su Zelin's career has developed fairly well, it has not yet reached the point where he can see all the mountains and small mountains at a glance. Moreover, those who have just succeeded will only show their sharpness, rather than being as powerful as Shen Yue or diving into the abyss.

Chatting while drinking tea, after a while, the mother and daughter went to cook.

Yan Shiqian asked: "Zelin, it seems that you are also a person who likes calligraphy, can you write?"

"know a little."

Su Zelin nodded.

"Would you like one?"

Yan Shiqian made a suggestion.

"Okay, uncle, then I'll make a fool of myself."

This professor of philosophy would not let himself write for no reason, there should be some deep meaning.

Following Yan Shiqian to the study, he found the Four Treasures of the Study, and a piece of rice paper was spread out on the table.

"Please!"

Father Yan pointed to the front seat.

"it is good!"

Su Zelin didn't hesitate. After sitting down, he adjusted his posture slightly and held the pen with his right hand.

Yan Shiqian saw that Hunzi was not easy at a glance.

Writing brush characters is a delicate job. Before you write, you can tell whether a person is a layman or an expert, just like Kung Fu tea.

Take the sitting posture as an example, the basic requirements are: straight head, straight body, open arms, and secure feet. It is easy to say, but there are not many people who really want to do these eight characters well.

Some people seem to have a standard sitting posture at first glance, but their limbs are stiff, their movements are rigid, they cannot control their strength at will, and it is impossible to write good words.

Su Zelin is on a different path. He has a standard posture and is also very relaxed and freehand.

However, Su Zelin's hand gestures are not so standard.

Modern people use more and more five-finger writing method, which is also the most widely used. All five fingers of the right hand come in handy, using the method of "pressing, pressing, hooking, pressing, pushing" to hold the pen steadily, so that the fingers can perform their duties.

Su Zelin's writing is very casual, but it is strange that it is not the casualness of a layman, but has a taste of its own.

Hunzi has learned calligraphy. In his previous life, he studied under the tutelage of a famous calligrapher for a period of time. When he just went to college, he showed off in the self-introduction of the first class meeting of the first financial management class, which left a deep impression on everyone. However, he used It's just chalk. (see above for details)

His calligrapher teacher also made the same hand gesture, and he explained this to Hunzi.

Su Dongpo, a great calligrapher in the Song Dynasty, used his pen differently from ordinary people. At that time, some people pointed out that his method of writing was wrong.

It means that there is no need for a fixed standard method for holding a pen, as long as the palm of the hand is empty and the hand is held flexibly.

In short, it is from the heart, how to feel comfortable, but it is easier to control the gestures. After all, each person's five fingers are different, and the strength is also different, so sometimes it may be a better choice to hold a pen that varies from person to person.

Su Zelin's calligrapher teacher liked Su Dongpo very much, and many places were influenced by him.

After pondering for a while, Su Zelin dipped his pen in ink.

Not long after, there was one more word on the rice paper, and there was only one word——海!

This is a philosophical word.

The sea is tolerant to all rivers, and tolerance is great, which means broad-minded and broad-minded.

The ocean comes from drops of water. A person's life must start with small things one by one. Only by doing these small things well can he achieve greatness.

The sea is the source of life.

The ocean is changeable, it can be peaceful and peaceful, or it can be powerful.

……

This word is also very suitable for summarizing Su Zelin's character.

He is ambitious, generous and courageous in his work, but at the same time bold, careful and detail-oriented.

He is always very kind to his friends, but whoever provokes him can see the bastard's thunderous methods.

In addition, he is still a Neptune. If it sounds good, he is inclusive, but if it sounds bad, he is greedy and playful.

"Good word!"

Yan Shiqian nodded.

There was undisguised admiration in his eyes.

The font is elegant, imaginative and unconstrained, and there is no trace to be found.

Su Zelin's brush calligraphy already has the air of a famous artist, but it's just not ready enough.

"Su Dongpo was the leader of the literary world in the mid-Northern Song Dynasty. He studied the leaders of various schools in the Jin, Tang and Five Dynasties, and then integrated the creative styles of Wang Sengqi, Xu Hao, Li Yong, Yan Zhenqing, Yang Ningshi and other famous artists, forming a family of his own!"

Yan Shiqian's eyes are quite vicious.

"My book can't be created", a typical style of Su Shi's writing.

Just like Layman Dongpo's character and articles, he is arbitrary and eclectic.

"You have mastered Su characters in this hand, you have a good look, not bad!"

In this era, there are not many young people who are willing to learn brush calligraphy, and those who have such attainments are even rarer.

But Yan Shiqian was not too surprised. He learned from his daughter that Su Zelin is an omnivorous genius, and he can learn a little about everything.

After a pause, he continued: "Zerin, there are some ironic words, I don't know whether I should say them or not!"

"Uncle, please advise!"

The bastard said quickly.

"Many people desperately desire to obtain wealth, love, and status. After going through hardships, when they just have it, they will feel extremely happy, but slowly this happiness will continue to shrink. If we use economics, this is called 'marginal benefit. Decreasing’, wanting to get more, sometimes it’s a good thing, but it’s not necessarily a good thing at all!”

Yan Shiqian speaks in earnest.

The character "Hai" seems to be flying like a dragon and flying like a phoenix, swaying freely, but in fact, the strokes are a little more dignified, which shows that this young man is not as proud and unrestrained as he looks on the surface.

This may have something to do with his heavily fresh personality nature.

People with this personality will have a colorful life, and at the same time, they may encounter obstacles that are difficult to overcome, usually in the emotional aspect.

"If I read correctly, you once stood at a very important crossroads in your life, and you didn't know how to choose."

Yan Shiqian said slowly with deep eyes.

Su Zelin was shocked.

As expected of Qiuwen's father, master!

I couldn't help feeling a little more respect in my heart.

"That's right, Uncle, I have such a time, Uncle, please guide me!"

Yan Shiqian said indifferently: "Standing at the crossroads of life, a person may be hesitant and indecisive. The factors that affect our determination are often neither too complicated things nor our lack of judgment, but the fact that we should give up. I am unwilling to make that choice, I want both fish and bear's paw!"

Su Zelin was convinced.

Compared with those so-called "bricksmen", this is the real philosopher, and he sees too clearly!

After the rebirth, I originally planned to give up Qin Shiqing and stay away from my childhood sweetheart, but I was always unwilling to do so, and kept making excuses for myself, and finally got together with Qin Shiqing.

"Uncle, what do you think I should do?"

Su Zelin asked for advice more humbly.

Yan Shiqian smiled slightly, picked up a pen and wrote two words on the rice paper - willing.

"I'm willing to..."

The bastard muttered.

Yan Shiqian put down his brush.

"That's right, that's the way life is, you can only gain if you give up!"

"The "Diamond Sutra" once said: 'If you don't get something, you get it; if you get it, you get nothing!'"

"When you hold your hands tightly, what you can grasp is limited; when you open your hands, the world is in your hands!"

"Of course, what can be discarded and what cannot be discarded, just ask yourself, and you will have your own conclusion!"

"..."

Throughout the night, even when eating, Su Zelin chewed and understood these two words carefully.

Finally, my heart suddenly became enlightened.

Yes, I do need to give up some things in order to get more of what I want!
First of all, you can no longer spend as much as you did in your previous life.

Su Zelin was still thinking about whether to get all those lovers from his previous life back after graduation. This matter has been entangled for a long time, and now he has made up his mind.

Some former pillow people, even if they don't meet themselves, they can still live well.

There is no need to tease these people, just let them go.

A person's time and energy are too limited, with a dozen or twenty lovers by his side, no matter how hard you work and how cleverly you use the "cost-effective special moments", what everyone can get is still very limited after all.

However, some girls who were ill-fated in previous lives, or who would not be happy without themselves, should not be abandoned.

For example, Qin Shiqing and Huang Panpan, even if he deliberately alienated them, they would not be happy.

There are also Song Yuwei and Nanazi, who are also unlucky people. If I intervene in their lives and make their fate less difficult, then I can hold it in my heart.

Willingness also varies from person to person. The elder brother is so handsome, so smart and capable. Of course, ordinary people can't be used as a standard. You can be a little greedy, but you can't be too greedy.

My current girlfriend is almost enough, and I can add one or two as appropriate.

Another thing to give up is career.

Of course, not now.

At an appropriate time, you can retreat bravely.

In my previous life, half of my heart was devoted to my career, and there was no end to making money.

Later, in fact, money has become a digital game, which can no longer help my quality of life, but takes up too much time and energy.

If these time and energy are used to accompany my girlfriend, it is actually more meaningful.

When New Century becomes a well-known national chain giant and earns enough money, my brother will take a few girlfriends to retreat into the Jianghu, and enjoy their playing and singing talents when he is free. Wouldn't it be beautiful?

Hunzi found that the conversation with Yan Shiqian was really beneficial, and he even thought of the finale.

After dinner and staying at Yan's house for a while, Su Zelin left.

Yan Qiuwen sent him out the door, and couldn't help but ask, "Hey, what did you and my dad talk about?"

While eating, she found that Su Zelin had been thinking, and then suddenly figured out something, as if enlightened.

"Worthy!"

"Would you like it?"

"That's right!"

Su Zelin grabbed his hand, then let it go, and said happily: "Now I understand what needs to be grasped and what needs to be let go!"

"Oh, can you tell me about it?"

Yan Qiuwen asked with interest.

"I can't say the specifics, this is privacy." Su Zelin coughed dryly: "In short, people can't be too greedy, so that they can get more of what they want most!"

"Oh!"

Don't be too greedy, that's just a little greedy.

Give up being Aquaman.

However... still a scumbag!
Just don't intend to be so scumbag.

Saying goodbye to Yan Qiuwen, Su Zelin called Ding Linna after getting in the car.

Tomorrow Nanazi will also have to go home for the New Year, so of course she has to make a date tonight.

First, I went to watch a movie. In the dimly lit movie theater, I sat in the lovers seat in the back row. It was interesting, but there was always a depressing sound coming from around me, and there seemed to be a lot of couples in the live broadcast.

Fortunately, the current network is not yet developed, and there are not many mobile phones with cameras, otherwise it would be easy to be searched.

After watching the movie, I went to eat a skewer and headed home.

Instead of going to the hotel, all the other girls in the class went home, and Nanazi was alone, so she went directly to her dormitory. Ding Linna seemed to like this kind of tune very much, and of course the bastard also liked it.

It was snowing in the twelfth lunar month and it was a bit cold, and Luo Xi's bedding was requisitioned that night.

The next morning, before leaving school, Nanazi called her best friend.

"A Xi, if I accidentally use your stuff, just for one night, you won't blame me, will you?"

Luo Xi: "???"
