Chapter 878 Extra 2: Ji Xia Chapter (2)
"Wow, these oranges are so sweet, Mom, how about we buy two more boxes this year and eat them later?" Jiang Feng has been eating oranges since the annual meeting has not started, and has been eating until everyone is there. He was still eating oranges while eating hot pot.
There are no performances at the annual meeting, only eating and lottery are two major features of the Tai Feng Tower annual meeting. Wang Xiulian hates those vain things. If the employees were allowed to put on their own shows, it would increase the burden on everyone, and if she hired performers outside, it would increase the burden on her own wallet, so Wang Xiulian simply chose to have no program at the annual meeting and just eat and drink.
"What oranges are you buying? Aren't you tired of carrying two boxes of oranges on the plane? It's not like there are no oranges to eat in Z City. Looking at you like this, it's like I've starved you and made you not eat oranges for several years." Wang Xiulian's face dislike.
Jiang Feng:...
Eat oranges in silence.
"Brother Feng." Wang Hao held a bowl of hot pot dishes that he had just grabbed. He pulled Jiang Feng to the corner with a mysterious look on his face and asked in a low voice, "What is the ultimate prize of this year's annual meeting? Please tell me in advance. At the end of the day, can you appoint me directly?”
Jiang Feng:?
"You're thinking about peach." Jiang Feng stuffed the last half of an orange into his mouth, wiped his hands, and prepared to go to the clear soup pot to get something he could eat, and then went to the red oil pot to tentatively get some to check himself out. Can you eat it?
Jiang Feng's eyes were fixed on the bowl in Wang Hao's hand.
The red vegetables in the bowl, the dried chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns visible to the naked eye, are lingering in the air, and the frightening and imaginative aroma of the red oil spicy pot undoubtedly highlights the bowl of food in Wang Hao's hands. It comes from the red oil pan.
fragrant.
Although the red dried chilies and Sichuan peppercorns look scary, they are indeed fragrant. It's so fragrant that it makes people drool. It makes Jiang Feng, a spicy food weakling, want to take a chopstick from Wang Hao's bowl and try it.
Jiang Feng thought so and did so.
Wang Hao:?
hot!
Jiang Feng didn't know if it was because he hadn't eaten for a while, his ability to make spicy dishes had declined, or for some other reason. A mouthful of cabbage felt extra spicy in his mouth, a bit pungent to the tongue.
But delicious.
It's so delicious that you can't bear to spit it out and want to chew a few more bites to savor this spicy deliciousness.
"Wow, why is this year's hot pot so spicy?" Jiang Feng took a mouthful of cabbage and half a bottle of soy milk, feeling pain and happiness at the same time.
Wang Hao, who was snatched cabbage from the tiger's mouth:? ? ?
Wang Hao silently put the bowl away in his arms and said, "You have to ask your wife about this. I just heard them say that Wu Minqi fried the hot pot base today."
"Qiqi fried it?" Jiang Feng immediately became energetic, and Wang Hao ignored it, holding a bowl and chopsticks and squeezing towards the pot.
He definitely didn't actively eat spicy hotpot because he thought today's spicy hotpot was particularly delicious, but mainly because he wanted to support his wife's career.
Don't ask, just ask because you love your wife.
Jiang Feng breathed in while eating, drank soy milk, calmed down his mood, and continued eating. As I ate, I got away from the crowd, and as I ate, I came to the soy milk box in the corner.
Xia Xia is here.
Holding a small bowl of steaming hot pot dishes from the red oil pan, I ate with big mouthfuls while jumping on my feet from the spicy heat.
Looking around, Xia Xia had as many empty soy milk bottles as Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng remembered what Zhang Qian had said to her before, and walked towards Ji Xia while taking a deep breath.
"Xia Xia." Jiang Feng took a big sip of soy milk, not wanting the spicy taste in his mouth to affect his words, "Are you in a bad mood recently?"
"Ah?" Ji Xia was stunned for a moment, her eyes evasive. If her acting skills were better in another ten years, it's a pity that her current acting skills are not good enough in front of the Jiang family. Jiang Feng could tell at a glance that she was lying, " No. ”
Jiang Feng exposed her at the beginning: "Nonsense, there is no way you would hide here to eat alone. Why don't you go over there and eat with everyone? You see Ji Yue has started playing poker and you don't want to watch."
< br>
"But master, aren't you here to eat too?" Although Xia Xia is poor at lying, she has quick reflexes.
"I drink soy milk for convenience."
"I also drink soy milk for convenience!" Xia Xia blurted out.
Jiang Feng:...
Jiang Feng said nothing and just stared at Xia Xia until he saw her guilty conscience. Comrade Wang Xiulian often used this trick on Jiang Feng before he entered high school. If he did something that did not warrant a beating but was worthy of a scolding, Wang Xiulian would keep staring at him like this. By the time he, feeling terrified and frightened, he had done all the moves in one go.
As expected, Jiang Feng didn't stare at Xia Xia for two minutes before he made a move.
"I just can't bear to part with it," Xia Xia said.
"Reluctant?" Jiang Feng didn't understand.
"I'm going home today and I can't bear to do it." Xia Xia whispered.
Jiang Feng couldn't help but laugh. He had heard of people who couldn't bear to go on vacation or their parents. This was the first time he heard of people who couldn't bear to go to work and didn't want to take a holiday.
"What's the point of being reluctant to part with?" Jiang Feng said with a smile, "The annual leave is only twenty days, so you should treat it as a winter vacation. Don't you have to come back to work after the vacation? I remember you were so happy at this time last year, talking about it every day They are all mother-in-law, but there is no trace of reluctance.”
"Last year was different." Ji Xia looked awkward.
"What's the difference? Last year, I wanted to see my mother-in-law, so I couldn't wait to go home. This year, I didn't want to see my mother-in-law just after she left, so I didn't want to go home." Jiang Feng began to tease.
"No, I don't want to see my mother-in-law, I just can't bear to see her." Ji Xia looked extremely awkward.
Jiang Feng didn't tease her either. Although he still didn't understand why Ji Xia didn't want to go home, he could probably tell that his eldest apprentice was indeed a bit awkward.
"Okay, don't hide in the corner and eat hot pot. Let's go watch Ji Yue play cards and see if she will lose all this month's bonus to Sang Ming today."
Jiang Feng pulled Ji Xia towards the crowd of card players, but before he got closer, he heard Sang Ming shouting.
"I explode!"
"One to two!"
"A great king!"
"One three, hey, it's over!"
Ji Yue's face was as dark as if a bomb had hit her face just now.
After the basic hot pot eating activity, it was time for the exciting and climactic lottery draw. Last year, Jiang Feng didn't have the opportunity to watch the draw because he was so drunk that he fell unconscious before the draw. It was rare this year that he could finish the hotpot sober and watch the lottery draw. Naturally, he wanted to see who would win the ultimate prize.
Comrade Wang Xiulian informed him in advance that the special prize would be paid in one lump sum at the end of six months. The purpose was to encourage everyone to work actively, otherwise some salted fish would not have much money even if they won the special prize. In terms of lottery, Comrade Wang Xiulian also likes to do these things, whether it is cash prizes, practical home appliances, or tablets and mobile phone game consoles, jewelry and skin care products, whatever you want, you can get what you need.
In terms of the lottery format, Comrade Wang Xiulian likes to make things up. A large red wooden box is filled with notes representing everyone's luck this year. Once you grab it, it will be clear who is the European emperor and who is the non-chief.
"Everyone, this year's business is over for our store. I don't want to talk so much. Everyone has really worked hard this year. From the beginning of the year to the end of the year, it is not easy for everyone. I am very grateful to everyone. This year's turnover has increased a lot compared to last year. I hope that next year you can continue to work hard and achieve greater success. In order to reward everyone, I have also made a lot of updates to this year's prize pool - so now let's start the lottery directly. ! ”
Accompanied by everyone's warm applause, the first lobby employee who did not deserve to have a name came up to the stage excitedly, stretched his hand into the wooden box, pulled it out, opened the note with excitement, and handed the note to Wang Xiulian with a confused look on his face. .
Wang Xiulian shouted at the top of her voice like the announcer: "The consolation prize is a small fashionable pair of headphones and a box of tissue paper."
The real African chief lowered his head and walked down the stage silently, holding a box of tissue paper and looking like I was too embarrassed to see anyone.
The second lobby employee who didn't deserve his name came excitedly to the stage.
"Consolation prize, a high-quality fashionable mobile phone case and a box of tissue paper."
Jiang Feng silently gave a thumbs up in the audience. Sure enough, all the consolation prizes in the updated prize pool were different.
Even if it is an N card, the company will give you different N cards.
Maybe it was because the two non-Emirates had done a good job at the beginning. Master Wang, a native of Peiping, won the first prize directly after taking the stage. Jiang Feng had the same model of multi-functional luxury oven in the finals. The excited Master Wang called his son as soon as he came on stage to let him know. His son drove up to take the oven home.
Even Jiang Feng excitedly went on stage to draw a prize.
It's not a particularly good prize. The second prize is a beauty and facial cleansing device. It's the kind of useless prize that will be returned to Wang Xiulian tonight.
Comrade Wang Xiulian was so happy that she praised Jiang Jiankang that he was indeed her good son, and that the lottery was so in line with her mother's wishes.
It's as if she didn't buy these awards with her own money.
Mr. Sun may have had bad luck in the lottery because he was too rich. The worst consolation prize was a high-quality fashion notepad and a box of tissue paper.
Zhang Guanghang was not much better than him. The third prize was a hair dryer.
Wu Minqi also won the third prize, but her luck was much better than Zhang Guanghang. She and Jiang Feng had a bread machine, and they just needed a bread machine at home.
Sun Maocai won the first prize, a new mobile phone, and happily said that he did not need to buy a mobile phone this year and could just replace it.
Zhang Qian came to Tai Feng Building to work in vain for almost a month. She drew a first-prize switch and went back. Rounding it up, she also received her internship salary.
Wang Hao also won the first prize, a double-door refrigerator, and was very eager to exchange it with Zhang Qian, but Zhang Qian said that the refrigerator was really not needed.
Ji Xia drew a tablet and looked at a loss because she didn't have the WiFi password at all.
In fact, the winning rate prepared by Wang Xiulian for everyone is really not low. There are only ten consolation prizes in total. Instead, the majority are first and second prizes. Drawing a consolation prize can only prove that the person drawn is really a non-Emirate. After all, it is a lottery. There is always a need for a few non-chiefs to highlight everyone's Europeanness.
The special prize falls to Ji Xue.
As the most active employee in Tai Feng Building who worked overtime, Jiang Feng was given an extra six months at the end of the year at one time. Jiang Feng wondered if Comrade Wang Xiulian would regret setting such a special award.
Regardless of luck, the past year in some ways comes to an end on this day.
Although we haven’t celebrated the New Year yet, we have already taken the annual leave, isn’t it just the Chinese New Year?
Most people from out of town have booked tickets to go back on the same day. It can be said that they are ready to return home.
Wu Minqi's flight was for the afternoon and she was pressed for time. After the lottery was over, she hurried home to pick up her luggage and rush to the airport. The Jiang family has scheduled a flight for five o'clock, and there is still some time to wait for everyone to clean Tai Feng Building together. The two sisters Ji Xue and Ji Xia took the train at about the same time as the Jiang family, so they also stayed to help clean Tai Feng House together.
She personally took down the lanterns hung up in the morning, cleaned the countertops, returned the tables and chairs to their original positions, and Wang Xiulian locked the door of Tai Feng Building. Last year's business ended here.
"Xia Xia, have you packed your luggage?"
"It's packed. My sister said we should go back to get our luggage and go to the train station now. If there are too many people on the subway, we won't be able to catch the train," Ji Xia said.
"Well, let's leave early."
"Master." Ji Xia suddenly opened his arms and wanted to hug Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng was stunned for a moment, thinking that it was indeed not good for children to watch too many TV series, so he just went home during the annual vacation to be so sensational, and even hugged him as a farewell.
Jiang Feng hugged Ji Xia.
Now Ji Xia is almost as tall as him, and he can no longer be regarded as a child based on his appearance.
"Happy New Year." Ji Xia whispered.
"Tomorrow is the New Year. Xia Xia, isn't it too early for you to say Happy New Year to me now?" Jiang Feng said with a smile.
"Earlier, earlier, I want to be the first to say Happy New Year to Master." Ji Xia said in a dull voice.
"I'll be waiting for your first New Year's call on the morning of New Year's Day."
"Okay!"
"I will definitely be the first one to call!"
At this moment, the original Xia Xia seemed to be back again.
However, it seems that something is really different. (End of chapter)
