Chapter 108 The Valentine's Day Gift
Snow fell slowly in the cemetery, "What are you doing here?" Su Zi was once bumped into by Yan Wuxu, pretending to rub his arms, and using a casual conversational tone.

When you come to the cemetery, what else can you do besides sweeping the grave? Su Zi knew that she asked a lot about this, but isn't Perrault French, or his mother is from Meaux.

"A cat died in the school, and there is an animal cemetery on the far side of the cemetery." Perot shook the cardboard box in his hand that was about the size of the cat's body.

"Where is there an animal cemetery in Mocheng? There may not be one in more than ten years." However, Su Zizeng didn't intend to argue. No matter how willful she is, she understands that lying and silence are basic human rights.

No one said anything about the rest of the way. Perot was like a guard, following the two frightened female students, walking in the cemetery, which made people feel like they were traveling with them.In the cemetery lay people of all ages, without exception, they all chose to rest in this black soil covered by snow.

To a certain extent, life is not equal, but death is fair, the same piece of soil, a square stone tablet.

After hearing Su Zi's explanation of his intentions, the administrator found a booklet. According to the above information, the last time people from Qiao's family came to visit the grave was eight years ago. After paying the grave-sweeping fee for the next five years, The news was cut off, saying that the whole family had moved to Canada, and the number left on the booklet could no longer be dialed.

Even so, Su Zizeng still left the number, the awkward place and street names made up of 26 English letters, and maybe he could get some information from it.

But this trip was not in vain. Apart from asking the administrator to repair the cemetery of his grandparents, Su Zizeng still heard some news.

The administrator of the cemetery is a strong sixty-year-old man who has stayed in Meaux all his life and spent most of his life managing the cemetery.Running a cemetery is a tedious job, with few strangers in sight.In the words of the old administrator, even if the ghost is willing to come out and chat with him, it is welcome.

So he talked about a lot of things, although they were long-winded, but they were still useful. Among them were the stories of several old families in Mocheng, including the Wen family, the Qiu family and the Qiao family.

"The Qiao family is not as rich and powerful as the first two families. The ancestors of the Qiao family were civil servants. When they came to the revolution, they were also educated in the Imperial Academy. They could write well. The plaque hanging on the temple Fa'an Temple was written by the Hanlin ancestors of Qiao's family. The literati are the most common ancestors." The cemetery administrator said, boiled a pot of snow water, and distributed it to the three sitting in the hut. people.

The pure snow swept from the tops of the pine trees, drained and boiled, the glass of water is clear, with an uncontaminated sweetness.

"The Qiao family has always been low-key in dealing with people, but they have the pedantic temper of a literati. Back then, the only daughter of the Qiao family, Qiao Chu, ran away with a poor boy. Why did it become a sensation in Mocheng," said the old administrator. Tea, but as if drinking wine, he started dancing, "At that time, the old Qiao family house had not been bought by the Wen family, and the servants and guards of the whole house rushed to the sixth district. If Qiao Chu hadn't tried his best to stop him Looking ahead, Su Qingchang, the current chairman of the Su Corporation, can still have today."

Qiao Chu's body suffered from that conflict and shock. The Qiao family felt sorry for their only daughter, and finally compromised, but they still refused to support Su Qingchang, and even let out the words, before earning enough dowry, You can't marry Qiao Chu.

"When did that happen?" Su Zi once asked eagerly. She probably knew something, but she didn't expect her father and Liang Zi from Qiao's family to remember it so deeply.

"I'm old, I can't remember much, it was about 20 years ago," the old administrator said vividly, as if he had seen it with his own eyes.

"At that time, the Su family hadn't made a fortune yet?" Even Wuxu couldn't get enough of what he said. It turned out that the middle-aged man who looked calm was also from the sixth district, so he really couldn't tell.

It's just that Su Qingchang had such a relationship. Could it be that she and Zizeng's mother look very similar, otherwise, how could Su Qingchang be so fond of her.Any woman who knows that she is just a substitute for someone else feels uncomfortable.

When she walked out of the cemetery, Yan Wuxu was a little gloomy, thinking about meeting the Su family and facing Su Qingchang's eager eyes, she was a little undecided.The dead are often more formidable opponents than the living.Qiao Chu was already dead, and in Su Qingchang's heart, she was like a flawless goddess, without any flaws at all.

Su Zizeng's face looked like an ice sculpture. According to the administrator, Su Qingchang still had nothing 20 years ago, so where did his wealth come from? He got rich overnight, and at that time wealth was only controlled by a few. Mocheng in the hands of people is quite a tricky thing.

Perot was still holding the toolbox in his hand, and he walked unhurriedly, just walking on the same level as Su Zizeng, and every change in Su Zizeng's expression caught his eyes.

What Su Zizeng was thinking at this time was exactly what Perot was thinking. He also wanted to know where Su Qingchang's huge wealth came from.

"Pero," Su Zizeng stopped outside a telephone booth outside the cemetery, looking thoughtfully at the telephone booth under the white snow, "can you contact me with this number?" Her English is not good , I was anxious to get in touch with the descendants of the Qiao family, and ask them all about what happened back then.

Perot took the note, Ontario, Ice Lake Street, he glanced at it briefly, and did not immediately nod, "Yes, but Valentine's Day is coming soon, I want to ask for a gift." The snow fell on his gray It doesn't melt on my coat.

Yan Wuxu stood far away, creating a brief space for the two to talk.

It takes about half a second to turn a page of the book, "Success," Su Zi used to pick out a gift for Su Qingchang, Hang Yishao, and even Secretary Wang every Valentine's Day. To label Boss Han, one more Perot is not much.

After a long beep from the other side of the ocean, after a series of conversations in English, Perot walked out of the phone booth and made a helpless gesture: "Someone answered, but said that the tenant from country Z who originally lived there moved out five years ago. He left Ontario and did not leave a contact address."

For such an answer, Su Zizeng was not very surprised. After all, he had been abroad for more than eight years. Since he moved his family, he wanted to cut off all ties with China.

After returning home, Su Zizeng didn't tell anyone what happened in the cemetery, the matter of Qiao's family and Chang Mei had to come to an end first.

In the next few days, Yan Wuxu was a little weird. She said she had an upset stomach, and she kept making excuses and refused to come down to eat. She even mentioned several times that she was going home to prepare for the start of school, but Su Qingchang always used various excuses. prevarication.

The day before school started, on February [-]th in the new calendar, Su Zi followed the rules of previous years and took Yan Wuxu who was pretending to be sick to go out to buy gifts for Valentine's Day.

On the Famous Brand Street in the third district, brand-name chocolates and couple shirts became the most sought-after commodities.

Su Zi used to never buy chocolate, and Hang Yishao couldn't eat sweets.The Valentine's Day gift she bought last year was the pair of rose gold rings.The ring itself has a nice name, it's called Arnis and Venus Ring, but unfortunately, Hang Yishao doesn't like it, saying that wearing the ring will get in the way, so he doesn't have any subordinates, so what kind of gift should I buy this year.

"I want to buy a box of chocolates," Yan Wuxu stood in front of a dessert window, she walked back and forth several times, and finally turned back.The chocolate gift box under the neon lights is filled with black and white chocolates in the shape of seashells and stars.

"Whiskey stuffed, not so sweet," the shopping guide lady recommended.

Yan Wuxu looked at it for a while, and finally chose a heart-shaped chocolate gift box with dark chocolate and sherry sandwiched in the middle.

"He likes to eat chocolate?" Su Zi was curious. Yan Wuxu's "new boyfriend" was very mysterious. Su Zi made indirect remarks a few times, but she kept her mouth shut and didn't even reveal a word.

"It seems to be," Yan Wuxu thought that she didn't go down to eat these few days, but the kitchen always sent some sweet porridge and pastries, which tasted very sweet, and the servant who brought them said that these are the master's It is specially prepared by someone, and it is also the taste that the master usually likes to eat.

"Let's go to Amani's store and have a look. Their ties are of good style. Su Zi was thinking about choosing a few suitable ties." Act of.

"Miss Su is here to choose ties. These are the latest styles." The shopping guide also understood Su Zizeng's vision, and the few boxes of ties he took out were the most popular this year in both style and design.

In the end, she chose stone blue, light red and glazed gray ties, which were for Su Qingchang, Hang Yishao and Perot respectively.As for Secretary Wang and Boss Han, Su Zi had planned to choose more useful gifts for them.After a while, she has learned to make the best use of everything, and to give things to other people's hearts.

"Miss Su has a really good eye. This light red one is selling very well this year. Miss Chang also picked one just now," the shopping guide greeted happily.

"No, take two of the glazed ones," Su Zi Zeng puffed his cheeks, just like Chang Chi's eyes, it's not something to be proud of.

Yan Wuxu glanced carefully at the beautifully packaged ties, and then at the small box of chocolates in his hand, feeling a little heavy in his heart.

When they returned home, they did not see Su Qingchang and Chang Mei, and even Chang Chi was gone.Su Zizeng felt a little displeased, so he ate some food and went upstairs.

He left Yan Wuxu alone, and after inquiring with the servant, he found out that Su Qingchang and Chang Mei followed the old rules and went out to eat together.

Yan Wuxu was inevitably a little disappointed, when he walked upstairs, he looked in the corridor, and there was no one else, so he walked lightly into Su Qingchang's room.

In Su Qingchang's room, only monotonous gray is used for decoration. The outside is a study room for office use, while the inside is tidy and tidy. It is said that Chang Mei organizes it by herself every day.

Yan Wuxu put the chocolate on his desk, looked at the door facing the desk, and placed the chocolate on Su Qingchang's bedside.
