Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Third World
Mai Fan is also used to coaxing his mother: "Mom, I know you like Siwen's croissant the most, why is there any difficulty in buying it for my kindest and most beautiful mother." ”
"No, Mother Qin, find a plate, put the croissants on the table, and let my father eat two more while they are hot and crispy. ”
Chu Shaoxue, who said this, smiled, took a fork, and scooped a flat plate of vegetable and fruit salad for Mai Fan.
Mai Fan looked at the greasy situation, thanked him with a smile, and looked at the villain's mother with his eyes.
It's no wonder that Mai Wen is so afraid of his wife, it is really his wife, whether it is her appearance or bearing, she has beaten Mai Wencai.
Chu Shaoxue sat at the white dining table, holding a silver knife and fork in her hand, dressed in the most popular French dress now, like a noblewoman who had stayed abroad.
Just looking at it, no one would have thought that there was still a seven-inch golden lotus wrapped under her skirt.
This girl from the Qilu gentry, wanders among the families of a group of celebrities on the sea, and is never inferior to a group of fashionable ladies.
She obviously received the most traditional scholarly teaching, but in the shortest possible time...... Adapted and integrated into this large city that is very different from Ludong.
Yangwen started from scratch, and the piano groped from scratch, just two or three years of hard work, and her skills are not inferior to the guqin she has touched since she was a child, and the poetry books she has read since childhood.
And the love of Mai Fan's parents is like the legend of the woman in front of her.
Mai Wen is the son-in-law of the youngest daughter of the Chu family, and his identity is nothing more than the shopkeeper of an inconspicuous dim sum shop in the Chu family.
The little shopkeeper's thick eyebrows and big eyes are honest and simple, but he is an orphan with little net worth, no father and no mother.
Mai Fan didn't know how his mother persuaded his majestic grandfather, and he didn't know how his mother didn't go out of the door...... How did he find out about his humble father?
But now, he is almost eighteen, and his parents' feelings are still as strong and sweet as when he was a child......
Mai Fan knew that his mother had not regretted her choice.
Just as he was thinking about it, Mai Fan's father finished eating the pancakes and wiped his grease mouth and came to the dining room.
For his little actions that he thinks no one knows...... Chu Shaoxue lowered her eyelids and pretended not to see it.
Mai Wencai, who thought that he was not exposed, educated his son as soon as he sat down: "I haven't finished what I said just now." ”
"Now that your mother is here, does she know where you went if you didn't come home all night?"
After speaking, Mai Wencai turned his face to Chu Shaoxue as if he was looking for his wife to support him.
Chu Shaoxue stopped eating, her face full of worry: "I am on your father's side in this matter. ”
"Son, you should change your problem of not returning home at night. ”
"In a few months, you will be eighteen years old, and in ancient times, you had to do the crown ceremony at the age of twenty, and then it would mean that you could start a family. ”
"You don't have too much nostalgia for the fireworks land of Qing Qianzhai. ”
"If I hadn't sent someone to inquire about where you went, I would have ordered a clean girl. ”
"I'm afraid that the next day there will be news in the newspaper that the son of the Mai family, a grain merchant in Ludong, was escorted home by a servant because of the prostitute. ”
"Xiaofan, in fact, the mother also understands that you are old, if you put it in the past, you should be ready to go to the room at sixteen. ”
"I thought you were the same as your father. ”
"Find a confidant who knows cold and hot and accompanies you through your life. ”
"But this is long, I look at your temperament, but follow your grandfather, a merry. ”
"It's okay, it's just that I don't understand it yet, I obviously hinted at you, and the family chose two innocent girls with supple personalities for you to warm your bed. ”
"Why do you still linger on that featureless flower?"
Hearing this, Mai Fan glanced behind him.
The two little maids standing behind his mother turned their heads towards him in unison.
Mai Fan glanced at the two girls and immediately took his eyes back.
Forgive him for being in the first two worlds...... The vision is raised a little high.
These two girls were sent by their grandmothers in the old house.
These two girls...... Let's not talk about that face for the time being, just talk about that figure......
Each one is an old gourd with mixed seeds hanging on the vine, with a thick waist and wide hips...... There is only one good child left.
Mai Fan's eyelids trembled, and he quickly rejected his mother's kindness: "No, mother, you also hurt me?"
"If you want me to find a young lady from a big family, then you can't stuff me with a room. ”
"Who's decent lady didn't enter the door and took the girl first. Isn't that a bell-wit?"
"Don't you and your father also hope that I can find a good lady and take care of it?"
"If you give me these two girls, then you will really break your dreams. ”
Also, Mai Fan's parents refused when they saw Mai Fan himself, sighed, and didn't mention it.
At this time, Mai Fan was able to talk to his family about the topic
"Father, mother, if you really want me to take care of me, you have to find me something serious to do. ”
"Dad, you take me everywhere to see the world, and let me see what the really meaningful things are?"
"If I have something to do, I won't get tired of women. ”
Makes sense.
Mai Wencai and Chu Shaoxue glanced at each other, and there was a little joy on their faces: "Son, you can have such an idea, it means that you have grown up!" "Then where do you want to go to see and see?" Do you follow your father and me to the Qilu Chamber of Commerce, or go to the grain transportation dock on the edge of the big world to have a look?"
"Why don't you go to the northern specialty shop next to the French department store to inspect it? ”
"By the way, take a look at how the grocery and local shop is run, and it can be regarded as laying the foundation for you to take over the Mai family's business in the future. ”
Mai Wencai mentioned this, Mai Fan is not interested, in this troubled world, can be a pure enjoyment of the gentleman, or a particularly rich gentleman, what's not bad?
He shook his head and got straight to the point: "Dad, can't we start with the recent experience?"
"I heard from my classmates that there was a big dinner at the Sea Club tonight. ”
"Celebrities from all walks of life in the city will be invited to participate. ”
"Dad, our family is also invited, right? You can take me over and let me see for a long time. ”
Well, what is this called wanting to learn well, this is what I want to wave.
Mai Wencai's hope rose and fell, and the huge gap made the nameless fire in his heart...... was arched.
"You call this a long insight? you don't learn well...... See if I don't smoke you to death, what about my civilized stick, my big stick?"
The old butler, who was standing behind Mai Wencai, hurriedly brought over the civilization stick placed on the table and handed it to Mai Wencai's hand.
Mai Fan took a look, isn't it, grandfather housekeeper, I haven't offended you on weekdays.
At this time, there was only one person left to protect him, Mai Fan shrank his neck and pretended to be pitiful, and shouted: "Mother, Mommy, Mother, help!"
After shouting, he hid behind Chu Shaoxue, and didn't care how the big one of 1.8 meters shrank up, first seek protection.
In the end, Mai Fan's mother is calm.
Chu Shaoxue got up from the chair and glared at Mai Wencai, stopping the fierce man's movements.
"It's better for you to lose your temper with your child and take him to gain insight than for him to have no one to lead him to find knowledge. ”
"It's time to take Mai Fan to identify people. So that he can know how many people have heads and faces in this sea market. ”
"Let him know how many people he can't afford to mess with?"
"Don't let him see what our family is doing outside, he will always be a house finch living under your wing. ”
"While he still knows how to be in awe now, and the two of us can still manage it, go and see the real reality......"
"It's better than a child who provokes someone who shouldn't be messed with because he doesn't know the severity of it, and it affects the whole family. ”
By the way, I can also let Xiao Fan go and see what kind of women the big people outside are carrying around them. When he sees more, he will understand what a good woman is. ”
"The beauty trick in the mall will be useless to our son in the future. ”
It is!
Mai Fan, who was hiding behind Chu Shaoxue, nodded desperately.
Mai Wencai, who was watching, sighed again and again. But after all, he was still defeated by listening to his wife's words, so Mai Wen put down the crutches in his hand and agreed to Mai Fan's proposal.
This thing is done by Mai Fan.
......
In the evening, Mai Fan was in the room preparing for tonight's guy, but the big girl next to his mother knocked on his door: "Young master, you have two groups of guests coming to the door, and now you are waiting for you in the hall downstairs." ”
Who is it?
Mai Fan, who was putting on a dress, stopped.
He took his suit jacket, buttoned up his waistcoat, hung up a pocket watch, and went downstairs.
When he got downstairs, McFan found his mother too.
Chu Shaoxue sat in the main seat of the living room, and on the sofas on the left and right sides, two different groups of guests were seated.
Chu Shaoxue sat on her right...... Wearing a royal blue sleeveless cheongsam, Hua Yingying.
The girl was well dressed, she wore a pair of snow-white half-high heels, and an equally white lace scarf on her shoulders.
A little girl brought out by Qing Qianzhai stood behind Hua Yingying, staring at the wave of guests sitting opposite them with vicious eyes.
Mai Fan looked at the sofa on the left and found that the other wave of people was Du Ruosong, Lan Mengyao, and Wang Wei from the Fenqing Society.
The three of them came uninvited.
This combination made Mai Fan a little strange, he walked to the opposite side of his mother, leaned back on the sofa, and said to Hua Yingying first: "Didn't you say that I would send someone to pick you up later, let's meet at the door of the dinner?"
"Why did you come straight to the door?"
"And" Mai Fan said to the three people on the left, "You three come here at this time, but what is the important matter?"
Before the two groups of people could speak, Mai Fan's mother helped answer first: "Miss Hua Yingying was sent by me to pick it up, and as for your three classmates..... we met in front of the door."
It looks like they're looking for you urgently, so I'll take Hua Yingying upstairs first and let you talk quietly to your classmates. ”
After speaking, Chu Shaoxue stood up, and she glanced at Hua Yingying with a smile......
This little girl who was still full of momentum just now...... In Mai Fan's mother's eyes, like an angry ball, it suddenly softened.
Hua Yingying is like a well-behaved little daughter-in-law, under the gesture of Chu Shaoxue's eyes...... Carefully pinched his Xiao Kun bag, followed behind Chu Shaoxue, walked in the direction of the living room on the second floor, and gave the hall to Mai Fan and his classmates.
Everyone is gone, and it's time to talk.
"What's going on? Why are you here? Plans have changed? Cancelled at short notice?"
As soon as these people left, Mai Fan leaned over, and his tone was eager, lest others not know...... On the eve of the mission, he was a little flustered.
Mai Fan's performance made Du Ruosong and Lan Mengyao very satisfied.
They glanced at each other and hurriedly calmed Mai Fan's emotions: "No, the plan hasn't changed, we just came over in advance, bumped into you once, and stepped on the route by the way." ”
"Also, the things that Wang Wei prepared for you have been put on the car, Mai Fan, don't worry, we are behind you. It is your most solid backing. ”
Ha, if you're really worried about me.......
Mai Fan took the gun out of his arms again and made a good suggestion: "Ah, do you want to fight side by side with me?" That's great, why don't you let Lan Mengyao pretend to be my dance partner and go in with me to implement the plan?"
"She's a woman, it's easier to get closer to the target than I am. I thought about this assassination plan yesterday for a night.
I think what you're missing is someone to bring you in. ”
"Look, I can take Lan Mengyao in and let her assassinate her, isn't it the same?
On the eve of the ball, McFan suddenly came up with another plan......
All of a sudden, the three people on the other side were stupid.
They watched as the smile on Mai Fan's face grew louder and louder......
Lan Mengyao, who was sitting on the sofa...... The circles under his eyes turned red.
'Huh~?'
Mai Fan said in his heart: Oops
In the next second, Lan Mengyao covered her face and cried: "I don't dare, I'm scared, woo woo, I'm really useless......."
Without thinking about it, the next thing is that the maintainers will come.
Sitting on both sides of Lan Mengyao, Du Ruosong and Wang Wei immediately glared at Mai Fan angrily: "Mai Fan! You are still not a man! You actually asked a weak girl to carry out such a dangerous plan!"
"Didn't you promise everyone before, you want to shed your blood for revolutionism, you want to eradicate this biggest traitor for the people of the sea, you want to warn those traitors, and let them know that justice will always be guarded?"
"It's good that you want a female classmate to charge ahead!?Mai Fan, are you scared, are you planning to escape?!"
