Jia Xin, the small owner of the Huanghe Road Hotel in Shanghai Food Street and a seafood supplier, called Hao Kelai this day and asked him what he was busy with and whether he would have time to meet. Hao Ke said that as a small administrator, he was busy with miscellaneous things, listening to the shouts of the bosses and the office director all day, and he was unlucky the other day and smashed half of his front teeth. Jia Xin is seven years older than Hao Ke, and Xiao Hao calls him "Brother Jia" and asks him if he has done well in business recently? Jia Xin said that the business is not bad, but the friend is very hurt emotionally, very much want to talk to Hao Ke, vent the anger in his heart, and care about Hao Ke, saying that the front teeth are a façade, and ask him to hurry to the professional hospital to get it right.
The day before yesterday, Hao Ke was ordered to go to the boss's office with the office officer to adjust the layout, moved the two bookcases on one side to the back of the boss's swivel chair, and hung a famous calligraphy "horse galloping" on the opposite side of the bookcase. The bookcase is all brand new hardcover books, what economics, business management, etc., the boss is busy all day, and he is not allowed to have time to look, pretend to look, increase some office books, unexpectedly, a thick book fell down, just happened to smash on Hao Ke's front teeth, Hao Ke smashed half of the front teeth also picked up. Later the boss knew, let Xiao Hao rest for a few days, and let the finance room pay eight thousand yuan to Xiao Hao, a dental implant, the price is not cheap, Hao can check on the Internet, Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital is a dental authority, Jia Xin has also made teeth in the Ninth Hospital before, saying that Hao Can save the half of the broken teeth, the Ninth Yuan will find a way to pick it up, very simple, Jia Xin also said, there is a federal comrade bathroom on the nearest inclined dirt road in the Ninth Yuan, let Hao Ke go with his teeth. The federal bathroom is more upscale than Yinxin, and there are a few open small private rooms, which are in the federal meeting and talk.
Obediently, there are more than thirty dental consultation rooms in the Ninth Hospital, which is really the base camp of Shanghai Dental, and Hao Ke's teeth were sorted out in more than half an hour. Take care of him to go back and try not to bite something too hard with his front teeth. It only cost a few hundred yuan, and the top three hospitals in Shanghai have their own strengths, which is really good. It was Jia Xin who accompanied Hao Ke to the Ninth Courtyard, and after seeing the teeth, he went together to eat braised meat noodles at the Rich Andyo Hotel on Xietu Road, Jia Xin also ate a guest raw fried bun, he ate a lot of food that was not fat, there was food for blessing, and then the Isuzu van went to the federal gay bathroom.
The federal level is higher than Yinxin, the bath capital is ten yuan higher, on weekends, there are many bathers, there are people in the small box, there is exactly a pair of bathers who stayed here yesterday, it is a beautiful young mixed-race child and a dignified old man, the Federation is a foreign-related bathroom, the Federation can receive foreign guests. Hao Ke remembered that in the high-level one coffee bar, from time to time there were foreign guests coming. Under the cultivation of Brother Mu, Hao Ke now likes to drink good tea, so he took a paper cup next to the drinking fountain and brewed two cups of good tea. He and Jia Xin sat face to face in the small box and drank a few small sips of hot fragrant tea and said, "Okay." Brother Jago, I'm starting to listen intently to your story of affair now. Jia Xin sighed: "What a story, this is a very annoying thing to think about." ”
A year and a half ago, also in the federal bathroom, Jia Xin met a brother Qiao Long, who was two years older than him, Qiao Long was nearly one meter and eight sons, with a uniform posture, and the surname Qiao ran a large flower garden in the suburbs of Hangzhou, with many varieties of potted flowers, bonsai and flowers, and hired two elderly flower workers. He has time to come to Shanghai once or twice a month. The flower industry is very profitable, and has been operating for many years, buying a BMW car. Every time he came to Shanghai, he lived in Jia Xin's well-decorated one-room and one-room, and Jia Xin often let him go to the Yellow River Road Hotel for dinner. Qiao Long also has customers in Shanghai, often in the trunk of the BMW to bring bonsai and Junzi orchid and other more valuable potted flowers to customers, but also from time to time there are flowers in batches distributed to Shanghai big flower shop, he just stayed overnight in Jia Xin a customer, the next day he was busy with business matters, sometimes before leaving this day will come to Jia Xin to stay and stay, Qiao Long also gave Jia Xin potted flowers, what phalaenopsis orchid, bulb, when the phalaenopsis blooms, like a colorful butterfly staying on the flower branch, the bulb flower blooms a few golden flowers. After a long time of friendship and deep feelings between friends, Jia Xin wanted to decorate the side of the hotel lobby into a private room this autumn. After all, most of the guests in the private room are eating, spending more than the guests in the lobby, and doing business is to make more money...
After Hao Ke went to add water to the two cups of tea, he said: "Yes, our commercial building also adjusts the layout from time to time, also to increase turnover." ”
The tea tasted very good, and Jia Xin also took a few sips and continued: "After the private room is renovated." To close for a few days to let the smell dissipate some, take advantage of these days is not open, I went to Hangzhou with Qiao Long, in qiao long huge flower garden glass shed and outdoors to see the beauty of different flowers (bonsai), feel that the flower garden owner is really capable, the world of this flower to make such a beautiful atmosphere, the day before returning to Shanghai, Qiao Long and I also boated in the West Lake, that day was drizzling. The West Lake presents a hazy scenery of smoke and rain, the two people are deeply in love, it is really in love in the scenery intended in the painting, the beauty of the West Lake, really unforgettable, but this is also the only time to boat with Qiao Long west Lake.
Hao Ke questioned, "How can you two be so good at each other that you are broken?" ”
"The relationship between the two of us lasted for more than a year," Jia Xin said, "After that, Qiao Long came to Shanghai two or three times a month, each time on the first day and on the day of leaving, he stayed at my house, and every time I had to entertain him at least twice to eat good food and wine in the restaurant, I also went to Hangzhou twice, and after staying for two days, he had to be busy with business, and I only left." I was never able to enjoy the view of the West Lake again. When I first met, I only accompanied him to the Old City God Temple and Yu Garden once, and then drank tea on the small floor of the Huxin Pavilion next to the Jiuqu Bridge, and the scenery of Yu Garden was definitely not as beautiful as the Garden of Hangzhou. Qiao Long often comes to Shanghai, very familiar with Shanghai, before this, he once brought his cousin Xiao Wang to Shanghai, at night he quietly said to me, if there is any situation with me that his cousin knows is not good, I will say that I sleep on the sofa in the hall you sleep with your cousin. He was doing business in Shanghai, and on the third night he took his cousin to sleep at my house and returned to Hangzhou the next morning. When I went to Hangzhou for the third time, Qiao Long also let me drive together to dig up small tree roots on Xuedou Mountain, the scenery on Xuedou Mountain is also very good, there are many pine trees growing on the mountain, there are many small trees around the big trees, he asked me to help him dig out a lot of small trees with roots and soil, I said that digging out the roots of the trees is not destroying the trees on the mountain? He said that the pine nuts fell down and grew into too many small trees, too dense will affect the growth of large trees. Rangers will also go up the mountain to remove some small saplings, dense, do not affect the air circulation in the woods, so that the saplings and large trees to maintain a certain distance, just like australia where kangaroos breed too much, destroy the grassland to eat the grass roots, will cause desertification of the land. In this way, a batch of people must be hunted to make the ecology balanced. Therefore, some restaurants will have kangaroo meat supply, male kangaroo testicles can make marsupial testicles, men take kidney aphrodisiac function, listen to Qiao Long said this, I also think it makes sense. I asked him, so what do you want to do with these little roots? He said to go back to make bonsai, this small branch is soft, can be bent into shape, and then buried one or two stones to become an art bonsai. I said can people buy it back and raise it well? What if the roots of this little tree don't grow well? Qiao Long said that I use nutritious soil in bonsai, placed in a well-ventilated greenhouse, and wait for the surface of the soil to grow green grass and new leaves on the branches, indicating that the roots are alive, and then take it out to sell, it is always good for customers to buy back, as to whether the customer will serve well, I don't care. My pot here is only a few hundred pieces, and the large ones sell for tens of thousands of pieces. I don't believe it, a bonsai costs tens of thousands, does anyone buy it? After returning to Hangzhou, he asked me to visit his glass shed, which specializes in cultivating bonsai. Wow, there are more than a hundred pots of various bonsai in it, the small one is only the size of the palm, the large one is the largest tabletop, lush, different shapes, intertwined. The stumps were fist-sized, there were several pots larger than ping-pong boards, the branches were bent and formed, some coiled like snakes, some like dragons, lifelike, making me feel that he was extraordinary in gardening. He boasted that this small round table and large bonsai have been cultivated for more than ten years, a big boss has paid more than 100,000 yuan, I am reluctant to sell it, this is my favorite, every day will come to see it...
Hao Ke couldn't help but say when he heard it: "Brother Jia, your friend is really a master of gardening, if he only relies on selling more than ten yuan a pot of flowers, he can buy a BMW." ”
"Yeah, I'm also happy to have a friend who is a master gardener." Jia Xin said: "This spring, the buddy is still very good, he will always bring me one or two pots of begonias, the moon season, the flowers bloom very well, I said, you sent me before the four seasons of begonias, longevity flowers are still blooming, these two pots of flowers you sell to customers." He said that in such a month, you have to go to the flower shop to buy at least fifty or sixty yuan, and we only have more than ten yuan wholesale. As usual, he came in the evening, and the next morning he went to busy with business, but in the summer, he didn't come for two or three months, I called him, he said that his old mother was sick, his hometown was in Jinhua, and he went to Jinhua to serve his old mother. I think it is also, who the old man did not have something to do, remember last summer, I and Qiao Long first met in peace park, the heat is very hot, he almost every week weekend to drive to Shanghai, stay for three days, Monday night only reluctant to leave, Qiao Long said he likes summer, summer clothes wear less, undress convenient, he entered the house I will strip naked to show muscles, I asked him not to go to the window, let people see bad. I asked him what his mother's disease was, if it was not easy to treat, he would come to Shanghai to see, Shanghai good hospital has some, he said that his mother is a stomach ulcer. After taking Chinese medicine for a period of time, it is much better now, he also said that he has not come to Shanghai for a long time, and he always wants to come and play. This autumn, my family knocked out the bathtub, get a better shower room, now most of them are not bathing in the bathtub, I said, if you must come, I will open a hotel for two days, he asked me to open a hotel near the Peace Park, autumn is high, peace park is more lively. I told him that this Saturday I was opening a good hotel on Linping Road near the park. He was very happy, Linping Road is very wide, can park, early in the morning the road conditions are good, he came from Hangzhou, around ten o'clock on the hotel to find me, said it is decided. Early saturday morning, I rushed to the Linping Hotel to open a high-end room. Prepaid two days of room money, want Qiao Long to drive from Hangzhou early and did not eat breakfast, so he prepared for him, waited until after ten o'clock, opened the phone and asked him where he was? And told him that I was waiting for him in room 306 of the Linping Hotel, he said that there were some blockages on the road to arrive late, and then I went to the phone again and again, he always said that it was almost there, and then I answered the phone and he did not respond, I was afraid that he had a car accident, but there was no way to contact him, I can't remember how many times I called, how many text messages I sent..." Jia Xin said here. The hand covered his eyes, as if he were a little excited.
Hao Ke asked again: "Did the person with the surname Qiao have a car accident?" ”
Jia Xin sighed: "Alas, there is no Qiao Long information at noon this day, I am not in the mood to eat lunch, or go to the phone to text message, to a little more, finally there is an echo." He said that he had already arrived in Shanghai, and I asked him to hurry up, and in order to wait for him to be hungry, I would take your car to my hotel on Yellow River Road for lunch. He had eaten in my restaurant countless times, and he said he had already eaten and was not going to open a hotel. I got angry and asked him, "Where have you been?" He replied hesitantly: I... I brought a pot of bonsai of tens of thousands of yuan to the Villa of Wanyuan Road in Minhang District. Qiao Long has never said before that he is going to send bonsai to somewhere, this morning he also said that he went to the Linping Hotel around ten o'clock to find me, how to say that the change has changed, he is obviously making up lies, I have to take his lies as the truth, let him send back the bonsai to come, can't catch up with lunch, that night to go to the Yellow River Road for dinner, I still hope to meet him today. He said, I'll take a look, try to go to the Linping Hotel as early as possible, and I told him again that it was Room 306 on the third floor of the hotel. ”
The tea leaves were gone, Hao Ke went to the drink cabinet to buy two bottles of drinks, Jia Xin put the drink aside and said that he did not want to drink a sweet drink, Hao Ke went to buy a bottle of fresh milk, Hao Ke asked: "That surname Qiao came back in the afternoon, right?" ”
Jia Xin continued, in the afternoon I went to the phone again and again to text him to ask him what time he came back in the afternoon, he always said to take a look, wait a while, until it is almost dark before replying to a text message: Tonight do not go to Linping Hotel, the customer left me in his accommodation. I knew he was lying again, why would the customer leave him for the night, and I had to say, well, I've been in the hotel for two days, and you'll come early tomorrow morning. Friend, friend, can I manage the owner of a big flower garden that drives a BMW? The next morning, I went to the phone again and again, to text messages, God, I have called him many times in the past two days, how many times I have sent text messages! But he still said slimily, look, the customer wants to leave me for lunch. It seems that there is no hope, let me worry about the stomach, wait until twelve o'clock he has not clearly answered, simply I will return the next day the hotel, but the hotel attendant said that now 12 o'clock 10 you can not return more than 12 o'clock, I had to go alone to the fourth subway where the small restaurant casually eat some, last night was tortured all night insomnia, afternoon are a little sleepy, then fell on the bed to sleep ... When I woke up, it was also 3:30, and I wanted to try to text again, asking him if he could come to dinner in the afternoon, but fortunately, the hotel would stay until tomorrow morning, and I don't know if I can meet on this trip. But after waiting for more than an hour, Qiao Long wrote back that he was not coming, MinHang went to Hongkou to go to Lu Teyuan, and he would drive back to Hangzhou in a moment. The old gardener called to say that there were big customers who wanted to buy bonsai. I was completely disappointed, I said what was good, I replied with only four words: then forget it. After two days of mental setbacks, let me be restless, Monday morning I slept late at home, driving to the Yellow River Road has been nearly noon, see the young people across the road some familiar, that is not Qiao Long's cousin Xiao Wang? I asked him why he was still in Shanghai and didn't he go back to Hangzhou with his cousin? Xiao Wang was also a little annoyed, explaining: The surname Qiao is not my cousin, is the partner who met in peace park before, that day he wanted to play with me at night, I took it to the rental house where he lived, he said that the health here is still public, the housing conditions are too poor, he took me to you there, lied to you that I am his cousin, the day before yesterday that is, Saturday morning, the surname Qiao arrived in Shanghai at nine o'clock, called me, let me go to the peace park meeting, and then go to the Linping Hotel, saying that you have opened a good room there, Later, I met a handsome man in the pavilion on the rockery, and the surname Qiao took the initiative to chat with people. Qiao Long learned that the handsome boy's family was in the villa on Wanyuan Road in Minhang District, so he spoke attentively to the boy, saying that he was the owner of the Big Flower Garden in Hangzhou, and that he could send good bonsai and potted flowers to him next time, and wanted to go to the villa to see, the boy said that peace park was in the east, Minhang was in the west, the road was too far, Qiao Long said that his BMW was parked on Linping Road in front of the park, and he could take his car to go with him. Joe's mouth can speak, and the boy is said to be moved, so he agrees to go to his villa in a BMW. Xiao Wang was called to the park by Qiao Long and asked Qiao Long if he said to take him with him, right? Qiao Long waved his hand, not letting Xiao Wang go, and threw Xiao Wang down, and he and the handsome boy left together. Xiao Wang told me to go together, Xiao Wang scolded Qiao Long is not a thing, like the new and tired of the old, flower heart radish. I listened to Xiao Wang say this, but also sympathize with Xiao Wang is a young man who is toyed with by Qiao surname, I heard that Xiao Wang has not eaten, I said that this restaurant I know well, let Xiao Wang enter the hotel, let the waiter call the kitchen room, the next big bowl of vegetarian chicken double toppings, let Xiao Wang eat a full, I sent away the little queen angry and did not want to eat, angry not to fight, what a big buyer of bonsai, to give him a night... Play people dizzy. ”
Jia Xin finished telling its long story, hiding his face and being silent for a long time, he did not seem to be free from the tangled mood, Hao Ke advised Jia Ge to want to open something, such a friend did not hand over, what can he do...
The two of them lay on the bench of the box with their eyes closed for a while, awakened by the noise in the large lounge, and a strong black man pressed a handsome young man on the sofa, and the young man was definitely not the opponent of the black man. Hao Ke, who loved to fight and hug, went up to the black man in English and said: Sir, this aspect of things must be willing to both sides, this young man does not want to be with you, you can't force others, and your thing is too big, the young man can't stand it. And forcefully pulled the black man's hand away, Hao Ke's Gansu baby's hand was very strong. Jia Xin also went forward to help the young man who had been pushed down, and warned the young man not to talk to foreigners in the future.
When the two left the federal bathroom, it was past five o'clock, Jia Xin asked Hao Ke to take the Isuzu minivan to the Yellow River Road to eat at his hotel, Hao Ke said that there are many roads from here to the Yellow River Road, I ate a bowl of noodles at noon, hungry, just eat it on Line 4 Linping Road, go to the Yellow River Road is far away. There are several small restaurants there, Jia Xin walked while looking, saw a restaurant, there are many guests, he said, all the restaurants that eat a lot of customers are good. Entering the hotel, Jia Xin ordered fried belly slices, fried pork liver and dried celery shredded and sour and spicy soup, and asked Hao Ke if he still wanted to fry shrimp? Hao Ke said that it was okay not to. Hungry, eating quickly, Hao Ke scrambled to pay the bill, the two got into fifty minivans, Jia Xin said that this is not far from my home, let Hao Ke go to his house to sit for a while, tomorrow Monday your commercial building is more? Hao Ke pondered for a moment and said, Then go to your house. Hao Ke thought to himself, although Brother Jia was mentally injured this autumn, but this afternoon in the federal bathroom to recall this story, let him remember the previous pain, mentally depressed, just go to his house to accompany him.
Hao Ke entered the hall with Jia Ge, Jia Ge busily turned on the air conditioner, adjusted to 30 degrees, said that the wine of fang cai small restaurant was not authentic, drank two cups, the body itched very much, I took a shower. Hao Ke also took off his clothes to take a bath with him, rubbing his back for him, seeing that he did not seem to have recovered from the spiritual wounds of the story he had just told, tears and shower water dripped down together, Jia Ge, a small boss of open-minded true nature in society who had been mixed for several years, also had a tender side, for a person who liked the new and tired of the old, was it worth it? Maybe Jia Ge still has this flower heart radish in his heart, and he still doesn't forget the beautiful scene of the west lake boating that year, if Jia Ge really hates this unsympathetic Qiao Long, forget that people don't matter, and will not be moved by this, the young Hao Ke also feels that the male emotional world is a few more bumps, reminiscent of the crazy Anhui boy who heard in peace park before to find another friend and cut off a little finger for his father, Hao Ke also booed and wept for the male emotional entanglement.
After the bath, Jia Ge asked Hao Ke if he didn't want to stay here, and he would take you back to the dormitory by car. Hao Ke seemed to have thought it through, saying that the commercial building would not go to work until nine o'clock in the morning, and I would leave early tomorrow, and I would stay here tonight. Hao Ke put aside another quilt, the two slept in a quilt tube, Hao used his hands to soothe Jia Ge's thin back for a long time, and comforted Jia Ge's once wounded heart.
