Chapter 56 How have you lived these ten years?

She has an all-round attitude.

Mrs. Fu's expression softened slightly.

"In the final analysis, I am not lucky enough to be Xiuwan, and I can enjoy being the minister's wife." Xue Qinzhen stood up, "Our Xici is useless, so we can only stay at home and honor our parents. All I ask is Mom, don’t dislike us as a couple for hanging around you every day, you’d better be willing to take us with you every time you eat!”

There are no old people who don’t like the excitement.

Even Mrs. Fu enjoys the happiness of having children and grandchildren around her.

What's more, Xue Qinzhen and Fu Xici are like a couple with honey on their lips. They are always the best at making their elders happy, so they get the most money from Mrs. Fu.

Mrs. Fu's face softened a lot and she said, "Everyone has his or her own destiny. The second son is inferior to Jincheng in terms of official career, but he is blameless in respecting his elders."

Xue Qinzhen curled her lips secretly.

Doesn't this mean that Xi Ci is not as talented as Jincheng?
  She pretended to be worried and said: "Xi Ci is a family man, and he is much less courageous than Jincheng. Qianer only lost twenty yuan when he gambled with those boys from the Bai family, and he was too scared to dare Keep gambling and make those people laugh! As you know, Mom, Xi Ci found a very unprofitable job in the Presidential Palace. His monthly salary was only twenty yuan, and his food and clothing were all subsidized by his family. After all, our husband and wife are not as good as Jincheng and Xiuwan outside."

These words were half true and half false, but they made Mrs. Fu feel pity and love for Fu Xici.

She twisted her prayer beads and frowned and said: "Our Fu family is different from ordinary people. Once we go to the card table, how can we leave the gambling table halfway after losing money? It's just a joke! That's all, you can go to the accountant and pay eight hundred Yuan, I have spare money in my pocket, so I won’t lose face outside! I’ll try to use my connections to see if I can help Xi Ci find another position.”

Xue Qinzhen smiled brightly and hugged Mrs. Fu's shoulders like a baby: "Thank you, Mom!"

"You kid..."

Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are tired of each other.

Shen Xiuwan watched quietly for a moment, admiring the second sister-in-law's skills and eloquence.

If she were asked to ask her wife for money, she would not be able to say it anyway.

She glanced at the Western clock on the desk and suddenly remembered the art exhibition.

It was already noon, but Jincheng didn't come back to pick her up.

Doesn't Jincheng intend to accompany her to the art exhibition?
  She had lunch with Mrs. Fu at home, but still could not wait for Jincheng.

She guessed that maybe Jincheng had dinner with the Prime Minister, and the two of them might have to discuss some political matters, or maybe Jincheng was too tired to go to the art exhibition for entertainment. In short, their first date as a couple might be ruined.

Shen Xiuwan felt deep regret in her heart, but she understood Jincheng very well.

She took the car to see the art exhibition by herself.

At this moment, there is an art exhibition at No. 1 Tianshui Road.

The second son of the Bai family drove Fu Jincheng over in person and gave him a ticket: "Third brother, don't say I don't care about you. Tickets for Mister Lee's art exhibition are expensive but not available, so it's hard to get them! I got this ticket through some connections, but it’s a pity that it’s just this one! I know you are very interested in Western paintings, but I can’t understand them anyway, so I don’t want to waste my wealth, so I’ll just give it to you!”

Another car from the Bai family followed closely behind.

In the car, the fourth son of the Bai family smiled and handed Zhou Cibai a ticket: "Sister Zhou, I spent a lot of effort to get this ticket. Knowing that you are engaged in art, treat it as a gift from me when you return home." The gift is ready. You have to look at it carefully and don’t let me down!"

When Fu Jincheng and Zhou Cibai got out of the car, the two brothers drove away in a hurry.

The two brothers drove the car out of Tianshui Road before stopping, rolling down the windows to change cigarettes.

"It's all Shen Xiuwan's fault. If she hadn't been so meddlesome and insisted on sending that pile of junk to Yanjing, how could the third brother be injured?" The third child of the Bai family blew out a smoke ring, "Look, Sister Zhou is the most suitable for the third brother! Second brother, you still have a way, you can actually think of using this method to create a chance encounter between Third Brother and Sister Zhou!"

"Last time my eldest brother celebrated his birthday at home, both sister Zhou and third brother came. At that time, Shen Xiuwan was not very polite to sister Zhou. I stood by and saw the distress in third brother's eyes."

Bai Laoer reached out and put the cigarette to his brother's cigarette butt, lit it, and took a greedy puff.

He held a cigarette and smiled like a cunning fox: "Hey, since they haven't seen each other for ten years but still have an unforgettable relationship, we might as well help them. As for Shen Xiuwan, I don't care whether she lives or lives! Anyway, I have seen her long ago It’s not pleasing to the eye!” The two brothers shook their heads happily, stepped on the accelerator and sped away.

Entrance to the exhibition.

Fu Jincheng unexpectedly met Zhou Cibai's eyes.

Both of them were smart people and immediately thought that this meeting was no coincidence.

Zhou Cibai: "The brothers of the Bai family are really..."

She paused, not knowing how to evaluate it.

Fu Jincheng raised his hand generously and said, "Together?"

Zhou Cibai's eyes moved from his fingertips to his face.

Over the past ten years, his temperament and even appearance have changed a lot.

He seems to be a calm man now.

After an unknown amount of time, she raised her hand and pressed the white camellia narrow-brim soft hat: "Okay."

The late autumn sunshine is very warm.

Red maples of different shapes were planted outside the building. The woman's figure was tall and graceful, and the movement of pressing the brim of her hat was very elegant and noble. Fu Jincheng's dark eyes passed over her bright and fair face, and the heart in his chest suddenly beat heavily.

It's like the person I was ten years ago comes back to life.

That was a feeling I had never experienced before when facing Shen Xiuwan.

The building where the art exhibition is held is designed by a famous designer. The winding corridors are alternated with mountains and rivers, and combine the beauty of Western culture and Chinese tradition.

Fu Jincheng and Zhou Cibai walked through the long marble corridor.

Both of them are quite accomplished in painting, and they can discuss every work with gusto. Naturally, they will have disputes about individual works, but those disputes are entirely based on art. They are more like fun than disputes. sex debate.

"Jincheng, I think your evaluation of some works is too harsh," Zhou Cibai smiled from the bottom of his heart, "You seem to have been influenced by Xiuwan. Now you are not as radical as before. You prefer a subtle and introverted ideological culture. ways of presenting."

Fu Jincheng raised his eyebrows.

He was originally in a happy mood, but he didn't expect Zhou Cibai to suddenly mention Shen Xiuwan.

He said: "You are still able to appreciate all styles of painting with the same tolerance as you were ten years ago."

"ten years……"

Zhou Cibai muttered this word unconsciously.

The two of them had reached the end of the corridor.

Fu Jincheng's eyes fell on the painting in front of him, but he never focused on it.

After a long while, he said: "Ten years ago, when we were studying abroad in Paris, we often went to see various exhibitions together. Do you still remember? At that time, you were very interested in everything, and your talent in design made those foreigners attracted. I'm ashamed of myself - I haven't asked you yet, how have you been in the past ten years?"

As if he no longer felt guilty or conciliatory, Fu Jincheng suddenly directly asked the question he wanted to ask the most.

He turned around at the same time and stared at Zhou Cibai intently.
