After the filming, Guan Xi invited the director team to dinner and gave each of them a bag of Mid-Autumn Festival gifts. In addition to the Xiguan House architectural lamp and mooncake set customized by the Changlefang project, there is also an 800 yuan shopping card in an envelope.
During this period, Guan Xi's phone rang ten times.
The director joked to Guan Xi: "Are bank loans used to offset performance again?"
Guan Xi's smile was a little stiff and he said, "It's my mother."
Back in the office, Chen Jiaxian asked Guan Xi: "If Mr. Xu takes a vacation, who will he contact for specific business approval?"
Guan Xi thought of Jun Ziyi’s ambition for AIGC’s new business.
There is no doubt that she dealt with Xu Yucong quickly and neatly. She is a perfect alliance partner and a promising and potential boss.
Guan Xi told Chen Jiaxian: "Go directly to Jun Ziyi."
By the time it was time to get off work, the news was already circulating in the tea room:
Xu Yucong will accept a job transfer and go to Dongguan Branch of Zhuoxiu Group. During the period when the position of AIGC Innovation Business Director is vacant, Jun Ziyi will manage it on his behalf.
…
The next day, the special program was broadcast on the television station.
Chen Ji Tang Shui became lively after a long time. Everyone knew that they were filming their own stories. At the request of the neighbors, Chen Jiahao took a laptop and put it on the counter. Even Uncle Jiang, who was ordered to rest, gathered in front of the laptop. There were a bunch of people and dozens of eyes. , staring at it.
Grandma Jin couldn't stand it anymore: "It hasn't started yet! What you are watching now is an advertisement!"
Uncle Sun's voice was still loud: "My daughter and I are on TV! I'm willing to wait even for commercials!"
Boss Xiao Zhou held Uncle Zhou aside and said, "This public service announcement is over."
Everyone stared at the computer screen.
…
When the show started, Chen Jiaxian was sitting in the conference room, looking at the screen of her mobile phone in disbelief.
The book she wrote was clearly about mother and daughter, why did it become father and son?
…
Uncle Sun, who has a daughter at home, was a little angry: "When I was interviewed, I clearly said that it was my daughter who was living overseas. My daughter, why did she change my daughter to my son? Either father and son, or mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. , how should I explain to my daughter?"
Chen Jiahao said: "Besides falling in love, what else can girls do? Men only value their careers, and women don't just get married?"
Grandma Jin said "ha": "That is not a problem of people, but a problem of social structure."
Chen Jiahao smiled casually and did not argue with the old man.
Guan's mother sat in the corner and called Guan Xi, but Guan Xi didn't answer. She slowly raised her head and stared at the TV in a daze.
"Stop it, Miss Guan hasn't gotten off work yet at this time." Mother Chen reminded her.
Guan's mother said: "Who knows if she is busy or in danger? What if she is in danger?" She continued to dial the phone. After Guan Xi pressed it, she dialed again, a dozen times in a row.
Grandma Jin couldn't stand it: "Look at the time, Miss Guan hasn't gotten off work yet. The work here in Yuecheng is much busier than in your hometown. Miss Guan is busy, let her be busy. You are her mother, if you have any questions, you can't meet her Say? Do you have to call now? "
Guan Mu silently stopped.
Mother Chen handed her the menu: "Today, coconut milk triple treasure and mango water chestnut are both on sale at 19 yuan. 9. What do you want today?"
Guan’s mother ordered coconut milk triple treasure.
Watching the TV, Guan's mother sighed: "Father and son have been dependent on each other for so many years. How could the son so cruelly leave his old father behind and leave just as soon as he said so?"
Uncle Jiang took off his reading glasses, wiped the corners of his eyes, and looked back at Mother Guan: "You're wrong. I raise my children because I want them to have a broader future, not as a tool to protect themselves from old age. Children have children. If you don't stay tied to someone in your life, you will become your enemy sooner or later."
Keep your mother silent. Uncle Jiang turned to chat with Uncle Sun: "Your daughter is still opening a restaurant in Zimbabwe?"
Uncle Sun said: "It's still there, but now we don't open a restaurant, we sell curtains instead."
Guan's mother couldn't help but said: "You are so relieved when a girl goes abroad. If I were you, I would have to go and take care of her."
Uncle Sun said "Hi": "My family has been doing business overseas for generations, what's the worry? My daughter is smart, why should I take care of her? How old am I, and why do I still go abroad to cause trouble for others? How can I take care of my daughter?" I take care of her, and she takes care of me!”
"Care?" Uncle Jiang also shook his head, "It's hard to find a job now and the rent is expensive. If I really want to follow Dabao, won't I cause trouble for Dabao!"
Uncle Sun raised his voice: "What are you taking care of? Don't you, as parents, have your own life? I live a happy life by myself. I can attack whomever I want. I feel annoyed when my daughter is by my side for more than three days." !”
Speaking of which, Uncle Sun asked Guan's mother: "Is Yuecheng fun? Where have you been playing these days?"
Guan's mother's serious face showed some confusion: "I didn't go anywhere. Xixi booked a hotel for me, and I usually wait for her to get off work at the hotel. But she rarely comes."
The neighbors fell silent.
Grandma Jin laughed dryly: "Miss Guan is so filial. It's comfortable to stay in the hotel. You don't have to clean the room and you can eat downstairs. Look, what else are you dissatisfied with? Just walk around more while you are still young and make us better." The city’s attractions are fun.”
Guan's mother shook her head: "I still have to take care of Xi Xi." After saying that, she took out her mobile phone.
Grandma Jin held her hand.
"Did you call Miss Guan again?" Grandma Jin was nosy, "Is there something urgent?"
Guan's mother said: "I care about her. Did she have a good dinner at this time? What did she eat? Is the nutrition balanced?"
The neighbors were quiet again.
Uncle Sun blurted out: "You are not taking care of me, you are harassing me."
Guan's mother's face changed: "What is harassment? If I don't care about her, she won't eat well. What should I do if her health breaks down?"
Uncle Jiang said: "I have a canteen, but you worry about it."
Just as I was talking, an advertisement for Mid-Autumn Festival hairy crabs came on the TV.
Grandma Jin said: "These crabs are trapped in the basket. Other crabs climb up and have to pull them off. So all the crabs are entangled with each other and can never climb out of the basket."
The more Grandma Jin spoke, the tighter Guan Mu's face became. She didn't speak anymore, sat for a while, stood up, and left the candy shop.
Mother Chen brought out the Coconut Juice Sambo from the kitchen and looked at the empty seats with some confusion: "Where are the people?"
Grandma Jin coughed: "Let's go. Maybe there is something going on at home. Give me your bowl of coconut juice."
…
The old people were quiet for a while, but Uncle Sun spoke first: "Grandma Jin, this is someone else's family matter. Why are you meddling in such nosy matters."
Grandma Jin said calmly: "Mangtou, when something happened to you, who was the first person I contacted? Do you know?"
Uncle Sun said, "Isn't she my sister?"
Grandma Jin smiled: "No. I contacted Miss Guan."
Several old people were surprised: "Miss Guan? From the beginning to the end, Miss Guan has never shown up."
Grandma Jin looked at the door with sharp eyes and was lost in thought: "Many things can be done without having to show up personally. Mr. Yu of Zhuoxiu Group is a businessman and cares more about the interests of the project; my sister is soft-spoken. Think about it, my sister persuades Yu Always help us repair our water, install elevators, and mend our roof? Is that possible?"
The old people were silent for a long time and said: "So, it is actually Miss Guan who is behind this and is guiding the whole thing? Why should she help us?"
Grandma Jin thought for a while and said: "The reason is not important. What is important is that she is willing to help us fight for our interests and has the ability to help us. In this case, helping her means helping ourselves."
The old people nodded.
Grandma Jin looked around, then withdrew her gaze with satisfaction, pointed to her head, and lowered her voice: "Can you see? There is something wrong with Guan Tai's brain."
