Blackening starts from the golden years

A night of spring breeze is truly wonderful beyond words.

The next morning, at Zhu Jincao's home.

An alarm rang, Zhu Jincao got up, turned off the alarm on his phone, and walked out of the small bedroom.

"Dad, Mom?"

Zhu Jincao looked around the house but found no one. Finally, he saw a piece of letter on the dining table in the living room. He picked it up and took a look. It was a letter from his father. It read:

[My dear son, after a night of thinking, your mother and I decided to return home to give you some space for self-reflection. I have been in Shanghai for a few days and I can’t help but worry about you day and night and have trouble sleeping. Please remember that you have achieved what you have today through your own efforts and the help of your parents. You should not forget your roots. I have put all the food I prepared for you for a week in the refrigerator. Also, your mother knows that you like to eat stews, so she specially cooked a big pot, which is enough for you to eat for two days.]

Looking at the letter and the large pot of stew on the table, Zhu Jincao murmured:

"You are really good. You didn't even forget to blackmail me morally before you left. You left me with such a mess. What do you want me to do?"

……

At the same time, at the Fei Niao Gallery, Gu Moli also received a message from Zhu's mother:
[I have something to tell you, Jasmine. Grandpa Coco and I have returned to our hometown. You can stay at home tonight. I put the key in the fruit bowl. Keep it for yourself.]

Just after reading this message, Zhu Jincao called. Gu Moli pressed the green answer button and said:

"Hey, Jincao."

"Moli, my parents have gone back to their hometown, and I have to go to Jinshan on a business trip. Can you come back and pick up Coco?"

"Okay, wait for me for a while."

"Well, I'll wait for you at home."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Moli took half a day off and went home to pick up her daughter Zhu Keke.

The gallery entrance.

After watching Gu Moli leave, Mina looked at Yuan Xudong beside her and said indignantly:

"Gu Moli asks for leave every day. If everyone is like her, will our gallery still be able to operate?"

Looking at the indignant Mina, Yuan Xudong found it funny and said:

"Why, are you jealous of Gu Moli?"

"No, who is jealous of her?"

Looking up at Yuan Xudong, Mina said stubbornly:

"I'm going to work, I'm leaving."

"Ah."

……

Zhu Jincao's home.

After Gu Moli came back, Zhu Jincao secretly took her mobile phone while she was not paying attention, opened it, and downloaded a hidden positioning program.

Putting the phone back into Gu Moli's bag, Zhu Jincao pushed the suitcase and prepared to go out.

"Jasmine, I have to go first, otherwise I will miss the high-speed train."

"Okay, hurry up."

Gu Moli walked out of the bedroom. She took Zhu Keke's hand, looked down at her and smiled:
"Coco, say goodbye to Daddy."

"Goodbye dad."

Zhu Keke waved at Zhu Jincao and smiled.

"Goodbye, Coco. Dad is gone. You have to listen to mom at home. Do you understand?"

"Well, Coco, be good."

"Jasmine, I'm leaving."

"Well, please be safe on the road."

"Okay, I'm leaving now. Bye."

"Bye-Bye."

After watching Zhu Jincao leave home, Gu Moli looked at Zhu Keke and said with a smile:
"Coco, do you want to go to the gallery with your mom, or do you want to go to your grandparents' house?"

"Mom, I want to go to the gallery. I want to be with you. Can I?"

"Of course, come on, let's go to the gallery. Mom wants to be with you too."

"Yeah, I can go to the gallery now, Mom, is my big brother also in the gallery?"

"Which big brother?"

"It's the big brother from last time. Can we go to his house and play for a while?"

"okay."

"Yeah, thanks mom."

"Let's go to the gallery first."

"Ah."

……

At noon, outside the Fei Niao Gallery.

Shen Liuliu came to the gallery to have lunch with Gu Moli. Zhu Jincao's cousin Huang Qianniu also came to the gallery to look for Gu Moli. Seeing Shen Liuliu, Huang Qianniu smiled obscenely:
"Sister Liuliu, please stay."

Looking at Huang Qianniu who called her, Shen Liuliu frowned slightly and asked directly:
"Who are you?"

"Sister Liuliu, are you here to see my sister-in-law too?"

Huang Qianniu asked with a somewhat obscene smile.

"Who are you, I ask?"

Shen Liuliu frowned slightly.

"I am yellow morning glory."

Looking at Shen Liuliu, Huang Qianniu smiled and said:
"Zhu Jincao's cousin, dear."

"Yellow morning glory?"

Looking at the somewhat wretched Huang Qianniu, Shen Liuliu suddenly said fiercely:

"It was your mother who tricked Jasmine with a fake bag, right?"

"Don't shout, don't shout, don't shout. I've told you such a private matter. It seems that you are really my sister-in-law's best friend."

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, who is your sister-in-law?"

Looking at the yellow morning glory, Shen Liuliu frowned slightly and said:

"Why did you come to see Jasmine?"

"This one……"

"Hurry up and say it, don't hesitate."

"I came here today specifically to express my sincere apology to my sister-in-law on behalf of me and my mother."

Looking at Shen Liuliu, Huang Qianniu said:
"My mom, she really didn't mean to steal my sister-in-law's bag. She just took it out to show off when no one was home that day, but the zipper was broken. My mom was scared and didn't know what to do. I gave her an idea. I said let's buy a fake one and put it back first. I thought at the time, my sister-in-law has so many bags, it won't be discovered in a short time. When my credit card can be used, I will buy a real one and then replace it like this, isn't it?"

After listening to Huang Qianniu's words, Shen Liuliu said speechlessly:

"I really don't know what's going on in your mind?"

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault."

"Your mother is an elder, so I won't judge her, but you are an adult. Do you think what you did was mature?"

"Immature, immature."

"Liuliu, morning glory?"

Gu Moli brought her daughter Zhu Keke to the gallery. Seeing Shen Liuliu and Huang Qianniu at the door, she smiled and said:
"Liuliu, Qianniu, how did you two meet each other?"

"It happened to happen."

Shen Liuliu looked at Gu Moli and smiled.

"Hello, uncle. Hello, Aunt Liuliu."

Zhu Keke greeted happily.

"Hello, Coco. Hello, sister-in-law."

"Hello, Coco. You are so cute. Let Aunt Liuliu give you a kiss, okay?"

Shen Liuliu squatted down and looked at Zhu Keke and smiled.

"it is good."

"You are so good. Let Aunt Liuliu kiss your little face."

"Mm, kiss here."

Zhu Keke pointed at her face and said shyly with a blush.

"Okay, kiss me."

Shen Liuliu kissed Zhu Keke's cute little face and said with a smile:

"Let's go eat something delicious, okay?"

"Great, thank you Aunt Liuliu."

Zhu Keke smiled happily.

At this time, Huang Qianniu laughed and said:
"Sister Liuliu, please take me with you. I'm a little hungry too."

"Okay, let's go together."

"Thank you, Sister Liuliu."

Huang Qianniu smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed. What he liked most was eating free food.

"let's go."

"Walk."

……

During the meal, Huang Qianniu explained to Gu Moli how his mother had stolen her bag. Gu Moli also expressed forgiveness and gave the bag to Huang Qianniu's mother, which made Huang Qianniu thank her repeatedly. He couldn't afford a bag worth 15,000 yuan.

After lunch, Gu Moli took her daughter Zhu Keke to work at the gallery. Shen Liuliu also went back to the company to work, and Huang Qianniu followed her all the time.

"Sister Liuliu, please wait for me."

"Huang Qianniu, what do you want to do?"

Turning around and looking at the yellow morning glory that had been following her, Shen Liuliu said impatiently:

"Why are you so stubborn? You're still following me when I get to the company?"

"Sister Liuliu, isn't this a coincidence? I just happened to come to your company to apply for the lecturer position in the Golden Classroom." Looking at Shen Liuliu, Huang Qianniu smiled and said:
"This is the fate between us, Sister Liuliu, don't you think so?"

"Return the fate between us?"

Looking at Huang Qianniu, Shen Liuliu suddenly said fiercely:

"Huang Qianniu, what do you want to do? Tell me, or I'll call the company's security."

"I said, I said."

Looking at Shen Liuliu, Huang Qianniu said somewhat embarrassedly:

"I, actually, I am..."

"What is it?"

Looking at the fussy Huang Qianniu, Shen Liuliu slightly widened her eyes and said:
"You don't want to..."

"Ah."

After taking a look at Shen Liuliu, Huang Qianniu nodded a little embarrassedly and said "hmm" shyly.

"Did you make a mistake?"

Looking at the shy Huang Qianniu, Shen Liuliu said speechlessly:

"Although you are Zhu Jincao's cousin and Gu Moli's relative, we are not familiar with each other. It's not right for you to borrow money from me, right?"

"What, borrow money?"

Looking at Shen Liuliu who had misunderstood him, Huang Qianniu said directly:

"I'm not asking you to borrow money. I, I have a crush on you."

"What?!!"

"I, I do have a crush on you."

Huang Qianniu repeated it again in a shy manner. Looking at him, Shen Liuliu said speechlessly:
"Huang Qianniu, may I ask who gave you the courage?"

"I know this internet meme, Fish Leong."

Huang Qianniu laughed. Looking at him, Shen Liuliu couldn't help laughing. She continued:

"First of all, I want to thank you for successfully making me laugh."

"You're welcome, you should."

Huang Qianniu smiled foolishly. After looking at him, Shen Liuliu continued:

"But, I already have a boyfriend, and you're not my type."

"It's okay, I can wait for you."

Looking at Shen Liuliu, Huang Qianniu smiled like a dog and licked her hard:
"Sister Liuliu, you are my type. I like women like you, beautiful and dignified, just like a goddess."

"Huang Qianniu, you are very brave. Your courage is commendable."

Shen Liuliu said with a smile.

"My mother also said that I have been very brave since I was a child."

"is it?"

Looking at the silly yellow morning glory, Shen Liuliu smiled and said:

"Do you own a house in Shanghai? Do you have a car? Do you have savings? Do you have a stable job?"

"No."

Huang Qianniu shook his head. Looking at him, Shen Liuliu smiled and said:

"I do. So, young man, don't be too ambitious. You need to be down-to-earth. Do you understand?"

"understood."

Huang Qianniu nodded in sudden realization, then looked at Shen Liuliu and said:

"Isn't this perfect? ​​I don't have it, but you do. Look how suitable we are for each other."

“I’m sorry, I don’t help the poor.”

Rolling her eyes, Shen Liuliu warned directly:

"Don't follow me. If you do, I'll call the police."

"No, Sister Liuliu, I..."

Before Huang Qianniu could finish his words, a young girl saw Shen Liuliu and ran over and said anxiously:

"Sister Liuliu, I'm calling you."

"what happened?"

Shen Liuliu asked.

"I was just about to go to the hospital. Teacher Ma had a heart attack and was hospitalized. He can't come to the opening speech of our Education Industry Investment and Development Forum."

"Have the other guests contacted?"

"I contacted them, but they are all busy. It's the peak season for conferences, and the invitations of other teachers have been filled long ago."

"Well, you go to the hospital and take care of Teacher Ma first, and I'll take care of the rest."

"okay."

After the young girl left in a hurry, Huang Qianniu looked at Shen Liuliu and said with a smile:
"Sister Liuliu, if you want to find a guest for the opening, I'll help you find one. You know Wang Lingxiao, the famous financial expert from Yicai Finance, right?"

"Yes, do you know him?"

"I know him, isn't this a coincidence?"

Looking at Shen Liuliu, Huang Qianniu smiled and said:
"Wang Lingxiao is my eldest brother, Zhu Jincao is my second brother, and I am the third brother. There are three of us brothers. Wang Lingxiao's mother is my eldest aunt, and my mother is his youngest aunt. He and I call Zhu Jincao's mother our second aunt. The three of them are genuine sisters. The three of us are brothers who are still connected even if our bones are broken."

"Is everything you said true?"

"Really, it's absolutely true. If you don't believe it, you can ask my sister-in-law."

"Okay, I'll believe you this time."

Looking at the yellow morning glory, Shen Liuliu said:

"If you can really invite Wang Lingxiao to give a speech, I will hire you on behalf of our company."

"Really?"

"Really, I mean what I say."

"Okay, Sister Liuliu, just wait for my good news. I will definitely invite my eldest brother to give a speech, for free."

After saying that, Huang Qianniu ran away and went to ask his elder brother Wang Lingxiao for help.

Shen Liuliu smiled and went back to work.

……

In the evening, Yuan Xudong’s house.

After dinner, Zhu Keke sat on the sofa in the living room watching cartoons. Yuan Xudong sat down next to her, holding two strawberry ice creams in his hands and said with a smile:
“Ding ding ding, Coco, look what delicious food is this?”

"Yeah, it's strawberry ice cream. I like it."

Seeing the strawberry ice cream in Yuan Xudong's hand, Zhu Keke jumped for joy. Unfortunately, just as she was about to reach out to eat the ice cream, Gu Moli glared at her and said:

"Coco, have you forgotten what your mother said?"

"Mom~~"

Looking at Gu Moli, Zhu Keke cried and said pitifully:
"I'll just eat a little bit, okay?"

"Not at all. What if I have a stomachache?"

After saying that, Gu Moli glared at Yuan Xudong and said angrily:
"You are not allowed to eat it either. Coco has a bad stomach and can't eat ice cream. If she eats it, she will feel uncomfortable and may even have a fever."

"Is it so serious?"

Looking at Zhu Keke who was pouting and looking aggrieved beside him, Yuan Xudong coaxed:

"Keke, let's not eat ice cream. Let's wait until kindergarten is over tomorrow and I'll take you to the amusement park, okay?"

"really?"

"Yeah, I promise."

"Then let's hook up."

"Okay, it's up to you."

"We've made a promise to each other for a hundred years, and we won't change our minds. Whoever changes his mind..."

Looking at Zhu Keke and Yuan Xudong making pinky promises, Gu Moli showed a happy smile on her face. At this moment, her cell phone rang. She took out her cell phone from her pocket and took a look. It was a call from Zhu Jincao. She pressed the green answer button and said:

"Hey, Jincao."

"Jasmine, where are you now?"

"I'm having dinner at a friend's house, what can I do for you?"

"Dad, Mom and I are having dinner at Big Brother's house."

Zhu Keke ran to Gu Moli and shouted, and Gu Moli handed her the phone.

"Dad, I'm Coco."

"Keke, what big brother?"

Zhu Jincao asked with a smile on the phone.

"That's the big brother."

Zhu Keke replied. At this time, Gu Moli said beside him:

"It's Mr. Yuan's house. Liuliu and Mr. Yuan invited me and Keke to their house for dinner."

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Liuliu walked down from the second floor, looked at Gu Moli and said with a smile:

"Jasmine, come up quickly. I want to ask you something."

"okay."

……

On the other side, in Jinshan, in Zhu Jincao's office.

Hearing Shen Liuliu's voice, Zhu Jincao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He looked at the location of Gu Moli's phone on the computer screen and smiled at the phone:

"Jasmine, you should go home and rest early tonight. You have to get up early tomorrow morning to send Coco to kindergarten."

"know."
