Chapter 98: Perfect and Dangerous
Lin Bao subconsciously asked her her surname, which immediately aroused Xu Feifei's dissatisfaction, and took his hand and pressed it hard.
Because this is his mistake, Xie Anhe's fiancée, who has attended the engagement banquet so far, can still not know her name? Even if he didn't remember it before, then for such an important meeting tonight, the person you want to meet doesn't know the other party's name, it would be extremely rude.
Lin Bao rarely made such mistakes, but fortunately, Xie Anhe's fiancée didn't care, took over the conversation, and easily took the topic.
From childhood to adulthood, she has been educated by knowledge, so that she never picks on others, is gentle and tolerant, and it is a kind of character that will make people feel comfortable getting along with each other.
After chatting, it got to the point, Xie Anhe invited Xu Feifei and his wife to a banquet.
Eating is always a very particular social occasion, Xie Anhe and his fiancée both like Chinese food, which is right for Lin Bao's appetite, follow Xu Feifei to eat, most of the times of Western food, although fresh and distinctive, but often eat it is not adaptable.
Xie Anhe showed a bold side, and ordered the servant to bring a bottle of liquor, "Feifei, tonight is our family's dinner, don't talk about so many rules, it's okay to drink a little wine." ”
Such a bold side surprised Xu Feifei, but the atmosphere of the dining table was no longer so solemn, and then relaxed.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to pour wine, Xu Feifei took out the prepared gift, and the gift was divided into two boxes, which seemed to be separated, not a pair.
After opening it, it not only exceeded Lin Bao's expectations, but also surprised Xie Anhe and his wife.
She first took out a white jade-like comb, classical carving, and a phoenix carved lifelike, crystal clear, but not like jade.
If it is jade, for a person like Xie Anhe, it is just ordinary, and his fiancée is obviously also a wealthy family, and she is a well-informed lady, she was slightly surprised: "Feifei, this is ...... Ivory?"
Lin Bao was stunned, isn't this thing banned in China?
The wealthy have the means to get it, but they won't get such a delicate comb, like an antique or a treasure.
Xu Feifei was very satisfied with their reaction, explaining: "The collection of the Republic of China is not very old, and the origin is clean. ”
The words are very clear, this is not deliberately smuggled, it is a previous collection.
"Feifei, it's a little precious. ”
"Sister-in-law, it's a waste to put such a comb for you in my house. ”
Xie Anhe smiled: "It turned out to be your family's collection." ”
"Brother, don't praise me, the era of the Republic of China is not too old, what kind of collection is it. After speaking, she opened another box and took out a pipe, the same white jade texture, no need to introduce more, Xie Anhe already understood, "These two can't be a pair." ”
"It's a pair I specially selected, so it's a good fit. ”
Xie Anhe and his wife couldn't hide their smiles, ivory products may not be very rare for them, but Xu Feifei carefully selected two things to make a pair, and the label of the Republic of China era has a sense of legend.
In that turbulent era of great change, there were too many legends and legends.
Yes, Xie Anhe's fiancée's temperament seems to be a kind of scholarly atmosphere in the Republic of China era. Just look at her expression and know that I like it very much.
Xu Feifei sent the right thing.
So, the appetite for dinner was also opened.
Lin Bao's limited number of drinks was all the tasks assigned by Xu Feifei, but fortunately, it was only a superficial taste, and the four people at the table all drank a little liquor.
Xu Feifei and Xie Anhe, the two protagonists, had a good amount of alcohol, but there was no reaction, but the two supporting characters were a little blushing, Lin Bao endured the spirits, ate a few mouthfuls of food, and pressed it down, while Xie Anhe's fiancée, her face was dyed red, and she was very quiet, occasionally giving Xie Anhe a few mouthfuls of food, how to eat herself.
"Feifei, Anqi is making trouble for you, I apologize on her behalf, if she does too much, you must tell me that our two families can't grudge against our generation. When Xie Anhe said this, he looked at Lin Bao, and he knew that his sister had been tossing this son-in-law recently.
"It's actually small things, and I don't take it personally. ”
"You are more mature and stable than Angel, and you have endured it for so long, and it has been hard. ”
"Brother, what kind words did you say at the family banquet. ”
Xie Anhe laughed, I haven't seen him for a few years, Xu Feifei has really grown a lot.
After that, the topic of the dinner table revolved around their respective lives and their families, after all, there are many relatives of the rich and few relatives of the poor.
Unconsciously, Lin Bao was full, and on such occasions, he maintained etiquette, ate slowly, and sometimes couldn't even eat enough.
But tonight, he ate one bite at a time, and he was full, and he could see that the two protagonists chatted for a long time, and they didn't mean to stop.
Lin Bao, who doesn't interject, can endure boredom, and Xie Anhe's fiancée, like Lin Bao, doesn't speak, but can be quiet, occasionally smiling and responding.
Lin Bao thinks that people's literacy is a good upbringing, but in layman's terms, it is actually a social way that has been trained over many years.
It can be seen that this beautiful sister-in-law is exactly like this, even if she doesn't speak, she is so decent.
Unlike Lin Bao, he can only stiffly make a background board.
At this time, the sister-in-law smiled lightly at Lin Bao, she sensed Lin Bao's embarrassment, and ordered the maid to bring a dessert.
really knows how to observe words and colors, Lin Bao smiled back and lowered his head to eat.
I heard that she is a young lady from an official family, so it is normal to have this acumen.
At this time, Xu Feifei, who was chatting hotly, took a sip of wine, pondered for a while, and said, "Thank you Brother Anhe for your concessions during this time, Feifei can understand." ”
Xie Anhe's eyebrows moved slightly, and his handsome face showed an interesting smile, "I just don't want to hurt by mistake." ”
Just now I was still talking about the topic of family, and after this sentence, the atmosphere quietly changed.
His fiancée finally spoke up and said to Lin Bao: "Brother-in-law, you are tired of sitting, the family has just repaired a garden, let's take you around." ”
Of course Lin Bao understood, and answered, and the two supporting characters went out together.
Xu Feifei and Xie Anhe are going to talk about business.
Lin Bao admired the fiancée a little, in this kind of social situation, she knew everything she should do thoroughly, and she didn't need any hints, she did it decently without leaving a trace, which was a kind of familiarity with the rules.
Lin Bao can also understand the change in the atmosphere just now, but he is his own chicken thief and cunning, which is the honed sense of smell, and it is a bottom-up view, with a bottom-up temperament.
It is completely different from people's natural sensitivity and bearing.
This difference seems to be a huge gap in origin.
The mansion is very large, and the two of them walked for a while before they got to the garden, even at night, they couldn't stop the spectacular blooming of a hundred flowers, which did not match the merchant temperament of Xie Anhe, this was the garden that his fiancée wanted herself.
Stop-and-go, the woman spoke elegantly, and once she spoke a little more profoundly, she immediately made a joke, maintaining an official tone of hospitality, and there was no sense of distance, which made Lin Bao see for the first time what a master of language arts is.
The children of businessmen understand interests, and official ladies are good at socializing.
This duo is a bit of a great combination.
"Sister-in-law, I won't pretend, I'm from a poor background, a little vulgar, and I don't know much about flowers, but when I hear you say this, it seems to be easy to understand. Lin Bao said without being arrogant or humble.
She smiled: "Feifei gave such a flattering gift tonight, our husband and wife didn't have time to prepare anything, and it is too vulgar to return some jewelry, so it is better to ...... I'll give you a hundred-year-old good combination. She pointed to a lily plant.
Under the improvisation, he said the matter of returning the gift properly, Lin Bao blinked, convinced, "There is just a small garden at home." ”
"That's right, I'll tell someone to wrap it, if you don't know anything about raising flowers, you can ask me. ”
"It's not that much trouble, there is a gardener at home. ”
In fact, there is a kind of person, Lin Bao is a little scared, that is, the kind of person who does not leak, not that such a person will treat you, but is too perfect.
But it is impossible for people to be perfect, one extreme, that implies the other.
It's like a polygon, if you fill one corner, then the other corners will be forced to shorten, and it is impossible to open a golden finger in life to make all the attributes full.
At this time, the maid ran over in a panic, ruining the atmosphere, Xie Anhe's fiancée calmly asked her what was wrong, and the maid whispered in her ear: "Madam, Miss Angel is back." ”
