Ye Fan was silent for a long time, so long that Chen Xiaohui was worried about being kicked out, so she had to take the initiative to speak: "It's not some antique treasure. I'm not looking for you for dead things, but for living things."
"Aren't living people human?" Ye Fan wondered.
Chen Xiaohui: "It's a human being."
"It's a human being, you mean a living thing?" Ye Fan was speechless.
Chen Xiaohui was embarrassed, "I, I, am so stupid."
"Long story short."
Chen Xiaohui: "This is not a short story."
Ye Fan raised his eyes and stared at her, looking like he was leaving without saying anything. Chen Xiaohui didn't dare to complain, but it was really hard to say.
What Chen Xiaohui saw in the interest class was none other than her ex-husband, her husband from her previous life, referred to as "ex-husband".
In her previous life, Chen Xiaohui didn't want to go to the countryside, but she wanted to stay in the city either to marry someone with a job or to have a job herself. But at that time, there were too many monks and too few people, and it was difficult to arrange even for Ye's father's level. Fortunately, Chen Xiaohui is a girl and has been recognized by the Ye family. It is understandable that Ye's father and Tao Chunlan hope to keep their daughter by their side. Father Ye helped Chen Xiaohui arrange a job and no one scolded her for looking ugly.
As the saying goes: A girl should be married when she is young.
Chen Xiaohui has a job and wants to get married if she doesn't want to be criticized, but most educated young people of similar age and family background to her live in rural areas. People who dare not go to the countryside are either lazy or cowardly. Naturally, the Ye family cannot marry Chen Xiaohui to such a person. Without these, Chen Xiaohui does not want to live apart from her husband, so her choices become even narrower.
Father Ye and Tao Chunlan really thought about her and would rather choose someone with an average family background for her than someone with good character. The appearance and height should not be too short or too ugly, and finally a worker's son was chosen for her.
The man works in a military-type factory and is a skilled worker. He is a few years older than Chen Xiaohui. His parents participated in the revolution and are also old factory workers. His character is good and he has no worries about food and drink.
But society is developing. Before the reform and opening up, Chen Xiaohui had a good life, but after the reform and opening up, those who earned a dead salary would not be able to live a comfortable life. In her previous life, Chen Xiaohui was aloof and stubborn. She did not want help from her parents and did not allow her husband and children to receive help from their parents. As a result, her life was not good and she did not have much savings.
In her previous life, Chen Xiaohui complained that her husband was incompetent. But Father Ye chose an honest person for her. He was not smart enough and was not good at doing business. It was normal for him not to make a lot of money.
Chen Xiaohui's husband has a similar temperament to Zhang Xiaoming. When Chen Xiaohui understood Zhang Xiaoming's personality, she thought of her husband in her previous life, and she no longer complained about her previous husband's incompetence in this life.
However, Chen Xiaohui never thought about finding him. With his conditions, she could find a family with similar conditions and be stable for the rest of her life. Her family might be better off without her.
Chen Xiaohui didn't want to run into her again and cause trouble to herself, so sometimes she would deliberately avoid places where her "ex-husband" often went. So much so that the two of them have never met once in Xicheng in these years.
She was completely unprepared for this chance encounter with Chen Xiaohui, which made her feel like she was in another world. She wanted to do something but didn't dare to do it.
She didn't dare to mention a word about her past life. Chen Xiaohui said: "Yesterday I met a friend in the interest class. He has helped me before. I want to help him, but I don't know how to help him. Please help me come up with an idea."
Ye Fan looked at her and asked: "It's working time now, what kind of friend can make you not even go to work?"
"Don't worry about it yet."
Ye Fan was funny: "Then tell me what his character is, whether he is black or white, where his family is, and how old he is."
"Are you checking your household registration?"
Ye Fan sneered: "I don't know anything and you just help me when you ask me to, but I am so naive and still owe you? If you owe me, the Chen family owes you. I have never heard of parents having to repay debts from their children!"
"I-I just want you to help me make an idea."
Ye Fan: "You work in the Cultural Relics Bureau and all the people you know are studying dead objects. All your connections over the years are in this field. How can you help him? Could it be that he is also interested in cultural relics, or went to school like you? Is it historical archeology? ”
This question stopped Chen Xiaohui.
Ye Fan: "Let me remind you, you haven't said how you want to help. Help with the work or give money? No matter which way, you seem to need my intervention."
Chen Xiaohui can also help introduce people to jobs, but as Ye Fan said, the person she introduces must have professional knowledge. However, these days, people who have a little knowledge of history and antiques can live without worries by setting up a small stall in Panjiayuan without her help.
So to help the other party in other aspects, Chen Xiaohui could only turn to Ye Fan.
Chen Xiaohui didn't think about how to help him, so she was asked by Ye Fan again.
Seeing this, Ye Fan was speechless and wanted to laugh: "You didn't even think about it yourself, so you asked me to help him?"
"I - he suddenly appeared in front of me, I was a little confused."
Ye Fan: "It sounds like they didn't ask you for help. Are you feeling guilty for not doing something?"
Chen Xiaohui nodded repeatedly: "I knew you were the right one."
"That's right!" Ye Fan couldn't help but swear.
Chen Xiaohui was startled.
Ye Fan had no choice but to suppress his temper and asked: "What does he lack?"
"His family has a house, which is enough to live in. He has a job and his salary is enough." Chen Xiaohui thought for a moment, "But he doesn't have an extra house, and he doesn't have a lot of money."
Ye Fan: "Most citizens don't have a lot of houses or money, but that doesn't mean they are unhappy. Besides, when they see you, they don't cry about being poor and don't complain about it, which means they don't want you to repay them. You rashly come up to get close to them? Maybe you have an ulterior motive.”
Chen Xiaohui shook her head subconsciously.
"No?" Ye Fan said, "That means his character is not bad. Since this can help. What does he need?"
Chen Xiaohui didn't understand: "Need?"
"What does his family lack?" Ye Fan asked.
Chen Xiaohui: "Can't you just give money and a room directly?"
Ye Fan rolled his eyes at her, with "nonsense" written clearly in his eyes.
Chen Xiaohui choked for a moment, and because she knew her temper well, she had gotten used to it over the years: "I asked Liang Liang yesterday afternoon, and Liang Liang heard from his daughter that he had been divorced for several years and that his children were all with him." Ye Fan said A bad premonition: "You don't want to find him a wife, do you?"
"Okay?"
Ye Fan was speechless and wanted to raise his hand to tell her to go away.
"No?"
Ye Fan said with a smile: "Okay."
Chen Xiaohui couldn't help but leaned forward and asked urgently: "Then look -"
"I think you're quite suitable." Ye Fan interrupted her.
Chen Xiaohui was stunned, then blinked uncomfortably, wondering what Ye Fan meant. Could it be that Ye Fan personally guessed it. impossible! Chen Xiaohui made sure that she had not mentioned anything about her previous life to Ye Fan. A long time ago, Chen Xiaohui was worried that Geng Zhiqin would be deceived, and she did not dare to say it openly.
Chen Xiaohui thought about it carefully and determined that Ye Fan would not be able to think that she had memories of past lives even if he was extremely imaginative, so she immediately calmed down. As soon as she was calm, she saw that Ye Fan was speechless, and she immediately realized that she was thinking too much, and Ye Fan just casually said to her: "I'm serious."
"I'm very serious, too." Ye Fan said, "Have you ever thought about some people who firmly believe that being rich means being rich? If you give him too much, he will have trouble sleeping and eating, and it may even bring disaster to him."
Chen Xiaohui didn't understand: "What's the difficulty? Ye Fan, don't scare me. I'm not just older but not smarter."
Ye Fanxin said, you are not who you are!
"If your monthly salary is one or two hundred, it is just enough for you and your two children. Because you are working hard to raise your children alone, your relatives and friends will be embarrassed to think about you even if they know that you have saved some money before. But if you become rich, do you think Will they still be so considerate? ”
When you are poor in the busy city, no one cares about you; when you are rich in the mountains, you have distant relatives. Chen Xiaohui thought of this sentence instantly: "Then just pretend you haven't seen it before?"
"Can you really pretend you haven't seen it before?"
I had never seen him before, so Chen Xiaohui could pretend that he didn't know there was a person like him in the world. Having met each other, Chen Xiaohui could not pretend not to know each other: "It's a bit difficult."
Ye Fan: "Then send Liangliang to the interest class every three days and become friends with him. You praise his daughter for being smart and sensible, and take the opportunity to say that his daughter can come to you if she encounters anything in the future. But you have to remember this. Don't be in a hurry. You two haven't seen each other for so many years, and if you start helping someone, they will suspect that you want to kidnap and sell his daughter."
Chen Xiaohui thought about it. His daughter's need for help meant that his family was in trouble: "This method will work."
Ye Fan: "If someone really comes to find you, what are you going to do?"
Chen Xiaohui: "Just do what you can."
"Your own energy?" Ye Fan asked.
Chen Xiaohui said helplessly: "What are you doing now-"
"You have no right to say that I am stingy." Ye Fan said, "I have helped you a lot over the years. Chen Xiaohui, if you don't want to talk about anything else, let me just talk about Shencheng. I'm not forcing you to break up with them by being a bad person. They It’s like buying clothes in different seasons, I come to you four times a year!”
Chen Xiaohui muttered: "Why don't you say they are your adoptive parents?"
Ye Fan paused for breath and tried to drive her out again: "Let's not talk about them. Just talk about the antiques you have encountered in the past few years. You can't afford them and don't want them to be sold to foreigners, or you can't find a buyer to take them abroad. , just ask me to collect it, how much did I collect?”
"But you can make money if you buy it."
Ye Fan sneered: "Who told you?"
"I know. What I have asked you to buy in the past few years are all high-quality products."
Ye Fan: "You said if I buy some gold now, will it rise in price later?"
Chen Xiaohui nodded.
Ye Fan: "Since I know, why don't I see you hoarding it?"
"It's hard to cash in," Chen Xiaohui blurted out.
Ye Fan was very happy: "You also know that it is difficult to cash out the co-authorship? When I need money to set up a factory, it happens that people in the capital who like to collect don't have that much money. Who should I sell to at that time? You can go to a bank for gold bars, and the bank will collect them." Antique? ”
"I, you——"
Ye Fan interrupted: "Don't say it's just a small sum of money to me. My company is a gold-eating beast, and there will be many places to use money in the future."
Chen Xiaohui had to admit the term "gold-swallowing beast". Sometimes she wanted to persuade Ye Fan to just focus on trading, and there was no need to put herself through so much trouble.
But then again, the sparrow knows the ambition of the swan. She doesn't have such a big picture, doesn't have that much courage, can't understand Ye Fan, and can't know that Ye Fan was very successful in his previous life, and in this life he is building the computer she knows best. Success is only a matter of time, and she is embarrassed to pour cold water on him.
Chen Xiaohui nodded: "I admit that if you hadn't helped me, I might have even lost my parents' coffin book."
Ye Fan: "It's good that you know. No matter how you help that family in the future, there is a prerequisite. You can only use your own money and connections."
Chen Xiaohui said: "If this is the case, I can't help you much."
Ye Fan could understand why Chen Xiaohui wanted to help him so much. If she met someone who indirectly helped her find her biological parents, she would also want to help him. But Ye Fan was afraid that she might be careless and cause him harm, so he deliberately said, "His two children are not young, are they? He can have two children without you taking care of them——"
"No!" Chen Xiaohui interrupted.
Ye Fan felt relieved and had never thought about marrying the other person: "Then introduce him to someone?"
"What if there is a stepmother and a stepfather, wouldn't it harm his children?"
Ye Fan was tired and a little impatient: "This won't work, that won't work, what will work?"
