Chapter 1804 - Incredible
Guan Ping'an knew that her mother was distressed about money, but wasn't money just for spending? Not to mention that sometimes, even if you smashed it with money, you might not be able to get it.
It's like the three-in-four courtyard house in her house. The lot, the building, the furniture, the conditions, people spend money to try it? Who will sell it.
Since it is not for sale, it is natural to want to maintain it, so as not to spend a lot of money to rebuild it after it is abandoned. Naturally, she didn't contradict her mother.
Just like her mother asked at this moment if she wanted to draw a small vegetable garden in the yard. It is a virtue to be diligent and thrifty, and even if it is impossible for her to do it later, she will not forget that this is a glorious tradition.
If you despise her mother's "slamming the door", you will forget how her parents raised them in the famine and how they raised them carefully in the days of poverty and whiteness.
After looking at the yard, under the sun, the weather was really hot, Guan Ping'an hurriedly coaxed her mother into the house, and she herself went around the back of the house on the pretext of going to the garage to take a look.
The adjacent house on the west side covers the same size as hers, except that the wooden fence is painted white and there are a few more cherry trees in the yard.
When Guan Ping'an came back from behind, he walked and happened to meet a gray white fat old lady coming out of the villa on the west side.
As soon as the eyes of the two made contact, Guan Ping'an was happy, and subconsciously waved hello to each other. She knew and didn't know how her brain was so hot that she came to know it.
This old grandmother who doesn't know whether the little name or the big name is Jenny, oh no, the fat old lady has already asked her, the oriental elf, to call Jenny directly.
Speaking of foreigners, it's true, aren't you embarrassed? If she dared to call the other party Jenny like that, her father would strangle her if she didn't smoke her.
She is a good example of how much respect for the old and love for the young, there is nothing to talk about about this matter!
Guan Ping'an didn't enter through the main entrance of the house, and naturally, she didn't dare to climb over the low wooden fence directly. One old and one young chatted across a wooden fence.
There is no language barrier. Soon, Mrs. Jenny shouted to the Oriental elf who came out of nowhere, an Oriental doll on the left, and a cutie on the left.
And Guan Ping'an also got some news from the conversation. Similar to what her righteous grandfather said, this is indeed a popular homestay for international students.
Homestay for international students, as the name suggests, refers to the accommodation provided by families that provide accommodation conditions for outsiders other than their own family members.
In order to improve their foreign language skills, promote their understanding of foreign cultures, and better integrate into the local area, international students will choose to live in local homes.
Not surprisingly, the owner of the house that her righteous grandfather said was an old white couple who retired and lived alone, and this Mrs. Jenny was the hostess.
The strange thing is that the old couple in this family have sons and daughters, and there are many grandchildren, but they just don't live with their children, but the old couple has to live here alone.
It stands to reason that people who can afford to live in this kind of villa naturally have a good background, but they like to vacate rooms and rent them to international students at nearby universities, and they are not happy to leave them for their grandchildren to live in.
Oh, not right either. Just now Grandma Jenny said that it is nothing for her grandchildren to come to stay for two days occasionally, and she will have to pay rent if she still lives there when she is an adult.
Guan Ping'an, this shameful. If it weren't for the old lady's enthusiasm to let her in for afternoon tea, she would have to wonder if she wanted to get her in first so that she could pay for it.
"You're twenty-one this year?" ......said Mrs. Jenny, shaking her head exaggeratedly, "God, it's incredible." ”
Seeing this, Guan Ping'an almost went crazy with joy. Sure enough, everyone has a love for beauty. Her father and mother gave her this pretty and tender face, which is simply a killing for all ages~
She was chatting with her neighbors here, and her Lao Tzu Guan Youshou and his party were walking around the neighborhood, chatting with the "neighbors" they had just met.
"Qi, take the liberty of asking, you also grew up in England since childhood?" As they walked, one of the group, Jones John, the son of Max John Sr., asked bluntly.
Guan Youshou estimated that this fool had wanted to ask for a long time. Just now, he has been pestering his Xiaobei to talk, but he was fooled by his Xiaobei in two and two.
It is estimated that this tall and tall foreign young man still can't understand the profound cultural knowledge of our country, and he doesn't understand what it means to "talk shallow and deep, and a gentleman will precaution." ”
You said that we just met today and the friendship is not so deep, but what you say seems to be very iron, my Xiaobei can be vigilant everywhere and watch out for you.
Of course, Guan Youshou knew why this foreign young man asked this sentence bluntly. There is a kind of person who is born with an aura.
This is the case with his Xiaobei. Like this time, in the group, his Xiaobei rarely spoke, but his presence can still be ignored.
This bastard boy......
Who would believe that he is a first-time traveler, and he is also a native of China*, it is good to be able to speak English, and as soon as he speaks, it is the most standard British English.
It's like when he went to Maliutun to learn to speak Northeast dialect, even though the two accents are very similar, he still allowed him to speak as smoothly as the locals in a year.
After the group parted at the intersection of the community villa area, just a few steps inside, Guan Youshou looked at his uncle next to him proudly and smiled.
"How?"
Qi Jingnian knew what he was asking, "It's better than I imagined." "Although there is a talk of racial discrimination, it does not mean that all white people wear colored glasses, and the average person is still very friendly.
Just like the previous ones, everyone was naturally more or less wary when they first came into contact, but after the conversation, their attitude was very amiable, and they would leave contact information to meet.
Of course, Qi Jingnian does not deny that this is inseparable from the factors that "rich people" can look up to. In addition, I am afraid that in the hearts of those people, people who can speak fluent British English must have a certain background or a good traditional education, so they have the heart to make friends. Anyway, no matter what the reason, the situation here is much better than he imagined.
"That Mr. Robert was good before. This kind of person likes to put on a show, but if you can talk to him, he will be happy to serve you. ”
Truly!
The other party is not just impressed by your "breadth of knowledge" in just a few words. Of course, what surprises the other party even more should be your "aristocratic" cultivation.
Also, no matter who it is, as long as Uncle Guan Shi has the heart to deal with the other party, after talking, he is almost overwhelmed by his intentional camouflage methods.
