A few days passed in a bag of cakes, Canh Yen was tired of lying on the bed making a loaf, in the afternoon, his back was tired, he looked around to find a job. The maid aunt went to the supermarket to buy things, so there was no one in the house, he planned to raise a dog and cat, she said it was okay, she also likes cats and dogs. Inquiring about the best place to sell dogs and cats, he plans to buy one tomorrow to run around the house. He remembered Nhim's, Khoai Mon, the lion tiger didn't know if there was any place for sale. When he was a child, he used to go to the Porcupine's house to play and climb on it and ride around the garden.
Sitting face-to-face, looking out, the ivy gate surrounds, cools, the large garden is full of sunshine. Because he was too free, he decided to go to the garden to cultivate vegetables. He bought a lot of seeds and put them in the warehouse. At that time he was going to plant but he went abroad to study, so he gave up. Running into the warehouse, he digs through the hook for a while and also finds gardening tools, fertilizer, and seeds. Seeds have mustard seeds, and pumpkins, and sunflowers, wildflowers, and all that. Putting everything in the turtle car, he pushed it outside.
The garden on the right is not planted with no shade, you intentionally left it to plant trees. The afternoon sun was sad, he took a hoe to dig the ground, he had studied gardening before. Dig, dig, dig, then fertilize, then dig and dig until the soil is loose. Divided into several zones, he took the tree to build a fence to separate, a place to grow flowers, a place to grow vegetables.
Spreading seeds, watering for a while after the maid's aunt finished cooking, he was also unlucky. Looking at his results, he waits for a few more days when these trees will grow into small vines, the maid - Aunt Giao also smiles at his face like a cat. His aunt looked at his little garden and complimented:
"You did a good job, too."
He washed his hands, looked at his aunt with a smile, and said, "Do you know how to garden?"
"Yeah, I used to study before, the master often went to the garden to plant trees, and my aunt studied to take care of his plants." The 'boss' in her aunt's mouth is Mai Lam Bang's father of Bang Du.
Canh Yen saw his garden full of colorful flowers, looked at his aunt happier, if he was not free, she could also help him take care of him, Nhim was still looking for such an almighty person.
Aunt Giao did not know that she was so loved by him, looked at the sky that was about to end, forced him to take a bath, and then went down to eat. Auntie's food is as good as the dishes in a five-star restaurant, he doesn't want to go out to play anymore, there's nothing better than eating at home. Eating with auntie, sometimes aunt just let him make some dishes, he listens attentively but listens but doesn't know how to do it.
+++
It is said that when he eats, he falls asleep, he lies on the couch with his legs crossed, watching TV, the house is finished, so his aunt also goes to his room to rest, he doesn't want to bother her, so he turns the TV on low. Watching boring news bored him. The phone was next to him, suddenly ringing, looking at the number again, it was a strange number, he was skeptical but still opened it to listen.
"Hello."
On the other end is the voice of a middle-aged man: "Excuse me, are you architect Tran Canh Yen?"
"Yes, it's me. What do you need?"
"No, I'm the director of H.Q Group, we saw your designs during your years studying abroad, it's very suitable for our company. How would you feel if you cooperated with us?"
"Me? I said before that I can cooperate, but I only work from home, only when it is necessary to join the corporation. If your site accepts, I will come for an interview."
It seems that the other side is hesitating, of course, he knows that side will hesitate, working from home is like lying at home. Who wants their employees to be lazy?
After a while, the other party replied:
"Okay, let me discuss it. I'll let you know in a moment, but we'd love to work with you."
"You're exaggerating."
When the phone was switched off, the human resources director of a certain corporation had to hurry up and the run-up to the chairman's room. Chairman Huynh often comes home very late, he sits back and reads some new reports, frowns, and then relaxes again until there is a knock on the door.
"Come in."
Director Ho looked at the young president, he quickly talked about what he told him. After listening, he frowned and said without thinking: "No need to cooperate."
"But his design is very unique, he can sell his drawings to other companies to make a living. I found out, he has cooperated with many large corporations abroad, but In a very short time, some companies accept him to work from home. I think it's enough just to ask not to reveal company secrets."
Huynh Dong Khanh did not take his eyes off the report, he heard him keep rambling about him, couldn't help but be curious, raised his face, and asked: "Can you see?"
"...Yes, he's very good."
He suddenly asked: "Do you know his family?"
"Huh? I can't figure it out." That's natural, doesn't want to investigate, the director looks at him confused, maybe his family has a problem, has killed people, and robbed him?
He looked at the director's strange face for a while but did not say anything to blow away the other person's thoughts. After a long silence, he said, "If you can convince him to come to the company once a week to report his name, then oh didn't notice."
"Okay, I'll try." The director happily agreed, he did not chase and ran out by himself.
And each of them sat in the room, dropping the paper in his hand, he leaned back and thought about him for a while. He had heard about you, along with your very special homestay designs, it's just that he didn't think you suited him, or because you hated him. He felt the scorn every time he looked at him, fleeting but he could feel it.
At first, he thought you were weird, which made him find it interesting. But then his intuition told him not to poke him. That night because he was drunk, he didn't want to mention it, if he dared to remind him that he didn't know if he was killed by him or not.
Laughing, he found himself afraid of that kid. But his intuition is always right...
The person who is being called a 'dangerous character' is lying at home yawning while watching a horror movie. He silently hugged the pillow, turned off the dark lights around, put on 3D glasses, watching movies that were nothing less than the theater. I was watching the part where the ugly ghost was about to cook its bloody head to bite people when the phone rang. Canh Yen was startled, really scared to startle, he almost shouted, glaring at anyone who dared to call at such a moment, turned on the phone and it was the director.
The director narrated what the president meant, and after hearing it, he hesitated, then said:
"Once a week?"
"That's right, you just need to report your work and then go home without being on time as a normal employee."
"Um... Okay, but do I have a day off?"
"You took five days off..."
"That's different, leave is a right, understand?"
"So okay."
"Okay, see you tomorrow."
"I'll wait for you at 9 o'clock at the director's office."
"Yes, I see, bye."
Canh Yen very happily turned off the phone, he didn't want to make it difficult for the other company, it was just that he had to take everything back for himself. Every year he gets 7 days of leave, which is seven weeks on his calendar, almost two months. When it comes time to give birth, there is an excuse to take leave. Seeing that I was worried, I lay down and put on my glasses to continue watching the episode.
He didn't know that the other director had a headache and wanted to die.

H.Q Group is a large corporation in the field of real estate, along with hotels. Because the service industry develops so quickly, hotels have changed into many types, including Homestay. The more the homestay has a special design and beautiful decoration that is loved by many people, the more these services are known by more and more people, the more profitable they are.
Canh Yen read a few lines on the contract, having insurance of all kinds is not bad, the salary is temporary enough for him to live through the day. Reading up on things like the redundant request to keep the company secret, he was so used to it, it was time to sign the contract.
"Two years?"
The director was afraid that you would ask to reduce the time, he thought all night last night, you are a talent that should not be picked up elsewhere, quickly drew a smile and said: "Yes, after two years you can sign a longer contract."
"Ah, no, I just said it casually. I signed the contract, according to the requirements I will make a design every week and then bring it up on Friday, if there is a meeting, I have to come up, right?"
"That's right since you don't usually work at the company, it's a bit..."
"No, it's normal, I understand. You just ask I'll send you the drawing with the model, if you have any ideas, you can edit it on the model for convenience, okay?
The director saw that he was still working on the model, the happier he was, jerking his head repeatedly, Canh Yen asked a few more small things in the contract before signing. Judging from today's Tuesday, he still had a few days left to submit the design, which was a bit of a rush.
Canh Yen said: "It's okay, before I had free time, I drew a few copies, maybe not perfect, let me go back and edit them. To be honest, we designers work on the inspiration, so sometimes I draw a few copies a day, sometimes I just lie down and play for a whole month."
The director smiled with great satisfaction because he still had work to do, so he went home to let him work. Going down the elevator, he leaned back thinking about what to adjust in the drawing. Stunned to the point of ecstasy, someone who entered did not notice.
Dong Khanh kept seeing him since entering, like a soul flying back to a dream, he's not a person who likes to snoop, but it's funny to see him like that. That handsome face had an innocent look that made him want to pinch it with his hand, dreamy eyes, and carelessly rub his belly.
Is he hungry? He thought to himself, but without waiting for him to find an answer, the elevator opened. Canh Yen from start to finish did not look at the person next to him but walked out, he stood looking at him and then just shook his head and went down to the garage. Unexpectedly, meeting again, Canh Yen opened the car door and sat in, he was still thinking about the drawing at home, staring at the front, looking at it for a while, then bursting into a smile, happily driving away.
Only he stood watching the whole thing, looking at him from dumbfounded and then suddenly smiling as if he had discovered something interesting. He flashed the idea, is he crazy? Rushing to get rid of that thought, he also got in the car and went to the place where the contract was signed.

At the end of autumn, the weather turned chilly, Bang Du sat in the car waiting for people to come. He looked up at the falling yellow leaves, the sound of students laughing in his ear, tilted his head to look at each smile of the little students. Nature also laughs.
Knock… knock… knock...
The pretty girl stood by the window knocking, she was so pretty, her silver hair was like a bright cloud, her emerald green eyes were big and stupid. Lam Mai Van smiled as bright as a blooming flower looking at her two brothers. Bang Du opened the door, let her in the car, Mai Van after sitting neatly, smiled and looked at her brother and said:
"Brother, I want to eat roast beef, let's go eat."
"I'm busy." Bang Du drove away, didn't bother to look at the little girl's face, and replied.
"Younger brother stayed at school, he was kidnapped by his papa. And he didn't go out to eat with me alone." It pouted its lips and pretended to be pitiful and clownish, its big round eyes just needed a little more water to get wet, even more pitiful. It is like a poor child, abandoned by the whole family, lonely, hungry, and cold.
Bang Du really couldn't stand this little sister's face, raised his hand in surrender, and compromised: "Okay, give in to me. Where do you want to eat?"
"Hehe, my brother loves you the most. Go to Uncle Diep's shop, he promised to give you a lot of meat."
"I only eat, why don't I give my dad a little less so the whole family doesn't have to worry." He turned the car around, started to run away, not forgetting to look at his sister and blame him. The younger sister is exactly like her papa, only different from her papa who eats like a cat licks, and this sister has a lot to eat, eat all day. Strangely, I don't gain weight after eating, sometimes I even lose a few kilograms.
Mai Van heard that and immediately shook her head, eyes full of reproach, said: "You are wrong, I eat and drink more than my father eats, I don't know that these days, my papa has gained two kilograms more, my credit is no one."
Bang Du could only laugh when he heard that his father had gained weight so much that he was kidnapped by his father, and left behind a few children who were born and killed themselves. Too many times he saw that these two parents were not responsible at all.
Turning into a small alley, leaving the car, the two brothers held hands and went inside. Mai Van was small, standing not past his waist, when she was allowed to eat, she laughed until her eyes were full, happily running in front, ignoring her old brother in the back. Mieu Cau restaurant, this zoo-like name is a famous restaurant in the neighborhood, as soon as I walked in, I saw a lot of people sitting and eating, many people were waiting to buy and take away, he and it looked for a while to find it empty table.
This shop was opened by an acquaintance of his father's, next to the clinic was also of an acquaintance. Those two are husband and wife, shopkeepers, people who open clinics to earn money to play. From childhood to adulthood, in addition to eating at this restaurant, it was the place to raise his three brothers. The shop sells from morning to night, all kinds of dishes from rice to dishes like grilled hot pot, every dish is delicious.
Mai Van sat shaking her legs, with a familiar waiter running back and forth, he quickly pulled back and said: "Give me two pieces of roast beef, thirty skewers."
"Yeah, wait a minute, it's too crowded just for me." After saying that, he ran back inside, looked at him, and then looked at the number of customers waiting outside, thought for a moment, then got up and ran inside to help, anyway it's a good place to help out.
Bang Du was not so free, he sat there and read the reports sent by the manager and came up with a solution. The gangs his father made grew and pushed it over to him to manage, everything from small to large was taken by himself, to let the old man have time to hang out with his father. Many times when he did it, he also wanted to crow, wanted to run away, but then sighed, he had to try.
"Ouch." The young man's groan caught his attention, sitting on the floor was a young man with a pile of books falling from his backpack, the one who pushed him was another big fat young man. Seeing people fall, they didn't even lift to apologize, but they hung their necks and cursed at their father and mother. The young man was just silent, sat up and brushed his clothes off, it seemed that he was a student, he picked up the book and luckily it was okay. Looking at the guy still staring at him, his hunger made him mad, he wanted to hit people, but he thought this was a restaurant where people shouldn't fight, so he tried to hold back.
Moc Dien Ky gasped, glaring at him, he thought he was a natural being glared, causing the blood of the gypsies to emerge. He was unlucky, grabbed him by the collar, pulled him up, made an extremely aggressive face, and shouted:
"You dare to punish me?"
"Let go." Dien Ky growled disgustedly, he looked gentle but don't touch him, bite back. Everyone around looked at the two of them, one whispering to the other, but just looking, no one wanted to get involved in other people's troubles.
He snorted and raised his fist to punch him in the face, who would have thought that Dien Ky was faster than kicking him in the groin. The strong kick made him scream, he was seen blushing, and then a full round of applause broke out, people watching a good play had to respond, of course. He was still angry, being looked down upon by people like that, and was about to jump up and hit him, who would have guessed that his newly raised arm was grabbed.
Since when did Mai Van stand behind him, she smiled and grabbed his hand and twisted it. The strength of a ten-year-old girl isn't too strong, but if practiced many times with that, it's no different from a young man. The guy with just a bunch of fat and a few cat-scratches couldn't get past the kid but was trained from a young age like it. Before Van Mai could let him scream because of the pain, she took a tablecloth and stuffed it into his mouth, the angelic smile on his face made him shiver, it waved everyone don't care, then looked at him and said:
"Whoa, in the future, you should find out first if you go to the trouble. I'm lucky I'm out, but if I let the boss out, you'll probably go to the orthopedic hospital. Haha, get out." After saying that, he curled up like a garbage bag. Brushing his hands, he quickly ran inside and sat down opposite his brother, showing off his face.
Bang Du picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and placed it in the oven, not too fast and not too slow to say: "It's okay."
"I'm okay with everything, it took me a month to successfully practice that move. People are girls with weak legs and soft hands." After saying that, he made a 'scarred girl' gesture and looked at him. It acted to anger, holding chopsticks as fast as the wind to pick up cooked meat into its cup. Eating until drunk, there is nothing happier than eating.
Looking at her sister's way of eating sumo, I don't understand what it is like, everyone in the family eats normally, even baba eats a lot of snacks but doesn't eat a lot of rice, but there's a daughter who ate it nothing much, shakes his head and laughs: "Then my legs are weak, my hands are soft, these days I heard that you don't practice martial arts?"
"I'm ready for the exam." It seriously said.
"Only September." Again, I'm lazy to study for the exam. He also didn't want a sister like him, but she had to be able to protect herself. The work in this underworld is dangerous, he can't protect it all year round, he wants it to be able to live carefree, to be able to solve its problems and protect itself. So what is needed is a skill, including martial arts.
"That design competition, my brother didn't care about my sister at all. In the city that held a fashion design competition for teenagers, I signed up to participate, so I invested in finding ideas, but I wasn't free. hit with punches." He is very carefree not knowing that his brother is taking care of him. It simply thinks you want to train it to be stronger, it doesn't mind, it likes it too. It's just that he likes to design better clothes.
The smell of grilled meat was delicious, it didn't pay attention to the second brother anymore, and immediately rushed to eat it like starving, people don't know but think it's starving. The meat is grilled to a golden color, the smell of the marinade is sweet and sweet, making others swallow. Mai Van enjoyed eating, he just had to sit and grill the meat and offer it to him.
Suddenly he saw someone coming, looked up and saw a young man being bullied. Dien Ky suddenly looked at his two brothers, he just shyly did not dare to step forward to say thank you, besides, he recognized him, also because he was so handsome that he couldn't forget it. Dien Ky was stared at by him, his eyes carried something that made him shiver, trying to stand up straight, he smiled slightly and lowered his head and said:
"Thanks for helping me."
Mai Van got scolded all the time, and suddenly someone thanked her for watching and spitting a whole piece of meat out of her mouth. It looked at this young man, the hair covering his eyes looked quite dark, and he wore stupid glasses, but he knew that this young man looked very handsome. Smiling and waving his hand, he said like in some swordplay movies, saying:
"There's no need to thank me, I just saw the person in need of help out." After that, very 'meek' and laughed haha, where is the gentle girl's figure. When Dien Ky heard that, he felt even more embarrassed, he looked over at him, that handsome face near him saw his heart beating wildly, his face getting redder and redder. Embarrassed, he quickly took out a bag of candy, buried it in his hand, and quickly said:
"I don't have much, thank you." Talk and run away.
Mai Van didn't know whether to cry or laugh, she looked at the candy in her hand, smiled, and said: "The peanut candy is made by the countryside, it's a big gift." Today, every industry has a gift, just a worthless candy is also valuable. Mai Van used to be given this candy by her father once, compared to industrial candy, this candy may not be as delicious but has a special taste, baba said it is the smell of the countryside.
Gladly put the candy away, so that when you finish eating, take it out. Bang Du didn't notice at all, he only remembered where he seemed to have met the young man, but tried for a while, he still couldn't remember, so in the end, he ignored it and forgot it.
Eating and drinking, he brought Mai Van to the training ground and dropped it there, ignoring it with its lips pursed and shook its head and turned to go straight. He went to deal with some important matters, so he didn't have time to pay attention to his sister pretending to be pitiful. Going to the meeting room, he regained his frosty face and looked at the people inside. With harsh eyes but half looking, half not looking at each person, the corner of his mouth turned up a cruel smile, he waved his hand and said:
"Whoever resists, kill."
Everyone below said in unison: "Yes."
