Chapter 1336 Excellent Signal
Xie Yun's body has the unique charm of Jiangnan women. In addition, she was born in a scholarly family, has been a university professor for many years, and has been honed in shopping malls for many years. A strong, well-rounded woman.
Li Ma just spent more than an hour with Xie Yun in the kitchen, and she was full of admiration for this woman who was only one year younger than herself.
Xie Yun is very beautiful, in her forties, she looks in her early thirties, her appearance and temperament are indeed much better than Li Ma's, and she has a smart brain and is very good at chatting, even cooking is very organized, an ordinary housewife When cooking, the kitchen is like a war. When Xie Yun cooks, everything is orderly, there is no mess anywhere, it is clean and tidy, and it is obvious that she has a lot of research on cooking and knows how to deal with it. There are many operating methods for ingredients and how to control the heat, which are not used in ordinary home-cooked dishes.
While watching Xie Yun cook, Ma Li followed her example to help her, and the two of them chatted about some household things. All aspects of Xie Yun made Ma Li envious.
During the chat, Li Ma learned about Xie Yun's family background and the approximate life trajectory. She was studying almost all the time until she was 30 years old. After graduating with a master's degree, she got married and had children. She also got a doctorate degree, and then taught in a key university. He resigned from school and came out to be his right-hand man, which made Li Ma not only envied, but also admired a little more.
In front of Xie Yun, Li Ma's heart is humble. Of all the women of the same age she has met, none of them have the educational background and knowledge of Xie Yun, let alone family background.
To Li Ma, both the Li family and her natal Xiao family, before Li Mu made his fortune, were just very ordinary working-class people with insufficient background, so he was not strong enough. Entrepreneurs will never lose, but Li Ma has not built up enough self-confidence in her heart.
In fact, for Xie Yun, she did not want to establish a perfect image in front of Li Ma, and she never even thought of surpassing Li Ma in temperament and other aspects. Just want to give myself a little more confidence to support.
Just like the humbleness in Li Ma's heart when she faced Xie Yun, Xie Yun also has her own humbleness in her heart, because she knows that in terms of family business, no matter in the face of absolute strength, all other advantages can basically be ignored. , These days, if the word "family business" is put aside from the political background, the comparison is the amount of assets, and to put it bluntly, it means who is richer than someone.
When calculating the family business, how many generations of literati and scholars, several doctoral academicians, how deep the family background and cultural heritage are in your family is just the capital of your boasting with ordinary people. The only thing is who has more money. It doesn't make much sense for your family to be a champion in the Qing Dynasty, a master in the Republic of China, or an academician after liberation. It can only be used as a secondary comparison scale, and only when the core scale is tied or not. It's only useful when they're comparable.
A family with assets of one billion yuan can compare its strength with a family with assets of 950 million yuan, and its assets are on the same level. Slightly overpower the opponent in overall strength;
If this family with assets of 950 million wants to compare its strength with a family with assets of 9.5 billion, the asset level has already been turned to ashes in seconds. At this time, if you compare the so-called family background, who will pay attention to you? ? Even if the former family is full of postdoctoral fellows, it is useless, they will still be looked down upon by the latter, and they will not be able to raise their heads in front of the latter, because everyone is not at the same level at all.
It's like a college student with a monthly salary of 5,000 yuan in Beijing, comparing his strength with a person who has a car and a house in Yanjing but has not graduated from high school, it is completely meaningless.
What Xie Yun is facing at this time is the pressure caused by the huge gap between the two families in terms of capital.
The gap between the two assets is not only ten times or twenty times, but at least fifty times. In the future, the gap will get bigger and bigger. At this time, if she doesn't find some confidence for herself, she is afraid that she will not be able to talk to Li Ma. maintain normal communication.
But fortunately, Li Ma is indeed a very friendly person, and she has never been tempered by such a so-called big family for a long time. In her heart, she never felt that her son's wealth was an advantage of her, so she got along with Xie Yun, Both of them maintain a modest tacit understanding, which is quite harmonious.
Li Ma praised Xie Yun for her good craftsmanship and ingenious work, Xie Yun praised Li Ma for her good character and good teaching children, Li Ma praised Zhao Ziqiu's beauty because she inherited Xie Yun's advantages, Xie Yun praised Li Mu as tall and handsome because she inherited Li Mu Mom's genes, just a few back and forth between you and me, the two have a great affection for each other.
In the living room, Zhao Ziqiu also showed the full temperament that a lady should have in front of Dad Li, and his demeanor, speech, and image and temperament made it impossible to pick out any faults.
Dad Li was drinking tea, and occasionally looked at Zhao Ziqiu and his son secretly. The more he looked, the more he felt that the two were a good match. If Li Mu could bring such a daughter-in-law home in the future, it would be impeccable.
Dad Li himself is the kind of traditional man with a strong sense of inheritance. He never opposes his son's early love, and he even believes that it is normal for a man to marry and have children after the age of 18, and the rural areas pay special attention to the prosperity of the people. In recent years, the family with many sons has a high status in the village, and even encounters natural and man-made disasters. Such a family is easier to survive. In the future, when the sons grow up, they will separate branches and leaves, and three generations will be able to form a big family. Really envious of others.
When it was time to eat, Li's father and Li's mother and father sat at the dining table and kept winking, especially Li's mother, who always took the opportunity to stare at Zhao Ziqiu, look left and right, and see how she liked it.
Li Mu didn't tell Li's father and Li's mother too much about Zhao Ziqiu's situation. Li's mother was looking for opportunities at the dinner table to inquire about school, majors, birthdays, hobbies, do you have a boyfriend... I can ask Basically, I have asked, and I have asked if it is inappropriate.
Zhao Ziqiu was very nervous when asked, and answered carefully and respectfully, but Xie Yun felt more and more relaxed. She could see that Li Ma really liked her daughter, which was an excellent signal.
Li Ma really likes Zhao Ziqiu very much. Although she doesn't know her relationship with her son, she feels very happy when she thinks that she is his son's friend and the two live so close together.
Xie Yun woke up the red wine that Li Mu brought, and the five of them drank a little bit. This red wine became the catalyst for the atmosphere at the dinner table, and soon made the atmosphere at the dinner table more lively.
Li Ma began to ask how Li Mu and Zhao Ziqiu met, and Li Mu told her truthfully: the two knew each other because there was a couple in Yanjing in their bedroom, so the young couple brought everyone to know each other.
Li Ma nodded again and again. A boy took his roommate to meet his girlfriend and his girlfriend's roommate. This way of socializing is really in line with the actual situation of college students, it is reasonable, and it is very interesting.
So, Li Ma asked deliberately, "Then they didn't think about matching up a few more couples in the dormitories on both sides of you?"
Li Mu said: "It was matched. At first it became two pairs, and then a pair broke up. Now there is one pair left."
Li Ma smiled and said, "It's normal for a young man to fall in love occasionally."
After speaking, Li Ma asked again: "They matched others, but not you two?"
Li Mu didn't expect the directness of his mother's sudden question. Zhao Ziqiu, who was beside him, hurriedly lowered his head, wishing to bury his face in the bowl.
Xie Yun watched with great interest, wanting to see how Li Mu should explain to his mother.
Li Mu had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "I'm not busy. I don't even attend classes all day long, so no one of them has mentioned my affairs."
He played Tai Chi. Although he was not that brilliant, Hao Lai also solved the problem of Li Ma.
Li Ma also felt that Li Mu was a little evasive at this time. After all, she couldn't embarrass her son, so she said, "It's important to be busy with business, but it's not impossible to consider some personal matters."
Li Ma's words also stopped, and then she did not continue to extend this topic.
When Xie Yun saw that Ma Li had already reached the point, she changed the topic very appropriately and asked Li Mu: "By the way, Xiaomu, your Muye Technology cooperates with CCTV, and the information must be more timely. Yanjing's What is the situation of SARS now? Is there any other statement about the confirmed case that was found?"
Li Mu said: "At present, we have not received any news of other infection cases. The Yanjing CDC has now entered the highest protection state. I believe it will be able to play a good protective effect, but the most dangerous thing at the moment is to come into contact with this confirmed case. For the more than 200 passengers who have passed through, the next focus should be to pay close attention to their conditions, and immediately isolate them once they are found to be infected."
Xie Yun nodded and said, "The nature of infectious diseases that are spread by ten or ten is too insecure. The Ziyun Villa is fine. There are so many people coming and going every day in public places outside. Somewhat unsafe."
After finishing speaking, Xie Yun looked at Zhao Ziqiu and said, "I plan to say hello to Yan Da tomorrow and let Ziqiu study at home temporarily."
Zhao Ziqiu hurriedly said, "Mom, didn't you say you're not in a hurry for the time being and look at the development of SARS first?"
Xie Yun couldn't help but said: "I was just a plan to delay the army, do you really believe it? You will stay at home honestly from tomorrow, and I will contact your principal. He has a good relationship with your grandfather. This convenience should be able to It works."
In fact, Xie Yun didn't really think about suspending Zhao Ziqiu immediately. Although her news was not as timely as Li Mu's, at least she could know about it. The epidemic has just begun to sprout in Yanjing, and it has not penetrated into colleges and universities. In addition, my husband just donated 5 million special funds for epidemic prevention to Yan Da today, which has greatly improved Yan Da's disease control level. Therefore, Yan Da should be very safe recently, but Zhao Ziqiu can be Take another class.
However, just now, Xie Yun suddenly changed her mind. Ma Li's love for Zhao Ziqiu was an excellent signal, and she had to help her daughter seize the opportunity.
Looking at her puzzled and reluctant daughter, Xie Yun sighed in her heart: How did I give birth to such a simple and silly girl like you! It's rare that Li Mu's parents like you so much, why don't you hurry up and strike while the iron is hot? I don't even think about it, so I still think about going to class? For you, if you want Li Mu's mother to like you more and more, the best time window is the working time when Li Mu is not at home!
