International Hotel.

Wang Lin looked at his watch and said, "Is he not coming? He's already twenty minutes late!"

Zhou Xia said: "I have said that he is a busy man, and his time is not his own. He has to follow the leadership. If you have something to do, you can leave first. I will wait for him here."

Wang Lin smiled and said: "How can that be done? I'm here to ask you to do something. Just wait."

Zhou Xia said: "When he comes later, try to speak as little as possible. I'm afraid your upstart face will scare him away."

Wang Lin thought to himself, it is true that I am a nouveau riche, but I want to see who is coming!

After another ten minutes, a young man walked over with a briefcase under his arm, a BB camera in his waist, wearing a white shirt, black pants, black leather shoes, and his hair neatly combed.

Share humility and elegance.

When he saw Zhou Xia, he walked over quickly, bowed politely, and apologized: "Zhou Porridge, I'm sorry, I'm late. I'll punish myself with three drinks."

Wang Lin took a look at him and thought that this man was really elegant. He seemed to be someone who had read a lot of books.

Zhou Xia sneered and said arrogantly: "Mao Zhihe, you are a graduate student from Peking University, a great talent, and a popular person among the leaders. We are just ordinary citizens who deserve to wait for you! How dare we punish you?"

Wang Lin was startled and thought, didn't you say that this person is very powerful? You also told me not to talk nonsense, which scared me so much that I didn't dare to speak out, but then you cursed him when you opened your mouth? Why don't you give him face?

What kind of magical operation is it?

Strange to say, when Zhou Xia scolded someone, the man named Mao Zhihe breathed a sigh of relief, as if Zhou Xia didn't scold him, and he felt uncomfortable all over. After being scolded, the pores in his body opened up, and he called the waiter for some orders.

vegetable.

Zhou Xia said: "The dishes have been ordered. If we hadn't waited for you to come, we would have finished eating and digested it long ago!"

She said to the waiter: "Serve the food!"

The waiter smiled slightly and said okay.

Mao Zhihe stood aside, not angry, just smiling.

Zhou Xia said: "Sit down, do you want me to invite you to sit down?"

"Don't dare!" Mao Zhihe quickly sat down and talked to Wang Lin, "I am Mao Zhihe, who are you?"

Just as Wang Lin was about to speak, Zhou Xia said, "His name is Wang Lin and he is my friend. How about it? He is handsomer than you, right?"

Mao Zhihe said: "Yes, very handsome."

Wang Lin was so embarrassed! He thought this was going to be a bad thing! Zhou Xia was a very good-tempered person, so why did she argue with this man? How could she ask for help when she was so rude?

Zhou Xia was not here to ask for help at all, she said directly: "My friend has an art training school that will open on September 1st. I want to post admission brochures in various primary and secondary schools in the city. Can you do this? I can't do it.

Don’t force it!”

Wang Lin secretly yelled, "This is an order! You are not asking for help!"

Mao Zhihe was not angry. Instead, he thought about it seriously and said, "Just post an admissions brochure? It won't have much effect. This is better. Since it is an art training school and it is also for the purpose of prospering socialist literature and art, we can use the official cooperation model.

, to primary and secondary schools in the city, in addition to posting it at the school gate and on the bulletin board, each class should also be given an enrollment brochure, let the teacher announce it, and then adopt the method of voluntary registration by students. Wouldn't this be more effective?

"

Wang Lin couldn't help but be happy after hearing this. If this could really happen, the effect would definitely be the best, even better than advertising on a TV station!

Zhou Xia hummed: "As expected of a talented person, the method he came up with is much better than mine. So it's settled, how much money will it take to do it?"

Wang Lin was surprised again. Didn't this Zhou Xia say that we can't talk about money? She also said that I am a nouveau riche. Why are you talking about money with him again?

Mao Zhihe smiled and said: "No money."

At this time, the bb machine on his waist rang.

Mao Zhihe took off the bb machine, took a look, stood up and said, "Sorry, I'm going to make a call."

After saying that, he hurriedly left the restaurant and went to the front desk.

Wang Lin asked in confusion: "Sister Xia, do you have a grudge against him? He always curses people. Fortunately, he has a good temper and doesn't care about you."

Zhou Xia whispered: "You don't understand. That's just the way he is. If I beg him with good intentions and angrily, he may not be willing to help."

Mao Zhihe came back soon: "The leader asked me to come over quickly. There is an impromptu meeting. Do you want this meal?"

Zhou Xia said: "I understand, go quickly!"

Mao Zhihe said: "I'm really sorry. Let's have dinner together another day."

He extended his hand to Wang Lin again: "Comrade Wang Lin, let's meet again another day. I will keep your matter in mind. In this way, you can prepare promotional materials and admission brochures. The content does not need to be too complicated, and the writing should be as concise as possible. You

Leave it to Zhou Xia and I'll just ask her to pick it up. I'll arrange the rest."

Wang Lin shook hands with him: "Thank you!"

Mao Zhihe left in a hurry.

Wang Lin chuckled: "Sister Xia, I can see that you are so pampered that you feel confident! He is your boyfriend, right? Are you angry that he doesn't have time to spend with you?"

Zhou Xia said: "You are the only one who talks a lot!"

"This guy is really good. He is much stronger than me and has a good temper. What else are you dissatisfied with him for? He is busy at work and it is not something he can decide. You also know that he follows the leader. After these few years,

Years later, when he is released and becomes a leader, he will naturally have time to spend with you."

"What do you know? You're just talking nonsense! If it weren't for helping you, I wouldn't bother to see him!"

Wang Lin finished his work and was in a good mood, so he enjoyed the meal happily.

After dinner, Wang Lin sent Zhou Xia downstairs to her house and then went home.

Three women at home were sitting side by side on the sofa watching TV.

Seeing Wang Lin coming back, Sun Xiaodie consciously sat on the chair next to her.

"Brother-in-law! Are you so busy? I can't see you all day long! You are busier than when you were running the Treasury!" Li Wenjuan said, "I want to talk to you, but it's very difficult."

Wang Lin smiled and said: "Wenjuan, what do you want to see me for?"

"Let's chat with you, I miss you!" Li Wenjuan smiled and moved her butt to the side, "Brother-in-law, come and sit."

"Haha!" Wang Lin sat down between the sisters, "Then I will chat with you! Wenjuan, how is business today?"

"It's not bad. We have added a few more styles of trousers, and we sold more than a dozen pairs today! Xiaodie is also back, and with her help, we sold more trousers."

Li Wenxiu said: "Can you please stop discussing making money all day long?"

"What are we talking about?" Li Wenjuan asked.

Li Wenxiu said: "Talk about the children!"

Wang Lin's scalp was numb and he said, "I'm going to take a shower!"

That night, Liao Zhai showed the episode "Qiao Daughter".

In the entire 1987 version of Liaozhai, Wang Lin thinks this episode is the most beautiful, touching, and best-acted.

The three women all cried while watching it. Although Wang Lin had watched it several times, he was still very moved.

This is a world where faces are valued, and there is no difference between ancient and modern times, China and foreign countries.

Therefore, in the literary and artistic works we read and see, most of the heroines have charming smiles and are as beautiful as jade. It is precisely because of the blessing of beauty that their stories are exciting and fascinating. As for ordinary women

, that can only appear as a supporting role, or risk life and death for the heroine, or just have a laugh like "doing the trick".

It is rare that there is a novel with an ugly girl as the protagonist in "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio". Nv Qiao is a "dark and ugly" girl. She is not only ugly, but also has a disability: "one nose and one foot." The author uses concise and vivid words

Her pen and ink describe for us the life of this ugly girl, her pride and humility, her feelings and pain.

This is "Qiao Daughter", a story that is infinitely touching and full of heavy sadness.

Li Wenxiu said: "There are many Qiao women in the world, but very few Meng Sheng!"

Wang Lin said: "You are wrong. There are many Meng Sheng who value love and righteousness in the world, but Qiao Nu is too scarce!"

While sleeping, Li Wenxiu said: "If I were Miss Qiao, would you look at me one more time?"

Wang Lindao: "Whether you can become Qiao's daughter depends on you. If you look like her, you are not Qiao's daughter. If you have character like her, you are the real Qiao's daughter. If I were so ugly, you wouldn't look at me twice.

!”

"What part of my moral character is bad? As long as you can find a thorn in it, I will change it." Li Wenxiu said.

Wang Lin thought for a while, but he really couldn't find anything to irritate her about.

Li Wenxiu said: "Our factory has raised wages."

"How much has it increased?"

"30 yuan."

"Oh? The factory is raising wages now? Interesting!"

"What's wrong?"

"I will soon cooperate with Shenfang No. 1 Factory. The factory will divert some workers to my two factories. The factory is raising wages now. It is obviously because they are afraid that when the time comes, their first factory will raise wages, and my factory

Failure to raise wages will cause dissatisfaction among diverted employees."

"Hey, don't tell me, it may be because of this! It was originally agreed that the salary would not be increased until the end of the year."
