Chapter 232: Buying a car
After school, there are people coming and going outside Minzu University, most of the students go out, some live outside and want to go home early, some go out shopping with friends, there is a street outside the school, which can almost meet most of the students' requirements.
Chen Jing came out alone, and she didn't go with her classmates because she wanted to go home early today. After coming to the outside of the school, she was about to take a taxi back as usual, but suddenly she heard a car sound, she was startled, and when she looked up, she found her younger brother Chen Shi smiling at her in the car.
Chen Jing laughed, walked up to open the car door and jumped on it directly, and then asked, "Why are you here?"
Chen Shi said: "By the way, I saw that the time had just finished school, so I came to wait for you." ”
Chen Jing smiled: "Whether it's passing by or coming to pick me up, anyway, if you pick me up, I have to thank you." ”
In the past, Chen Shike had never picked up his sister from school, and his sister was also an independent person, of course, she didn't need others to pick her up, and Chen Shi was a younger brother, and under normal circumstances, his younger brother needed to be taken care of by his sister, but he was an outsider.
Chen Shi said: "Why don't we also pass by Chen Dong's school?"
Chen Jing said: "Okay, I don't know if the two of them are gone, aren't you afraid of running for nothing?"
Chen Shi said: "By the way, don't worry. ”
But it is a way, less than ten minutes from the National University of China to the No. 1 Middle School, Chen Dong and Chen Ying are in the No. 1 Middle School, and now it is the time to get out of school, so there are a lot of people outside the No. 1 Middle School.
There are fewer people living on campus than in the university, because most of the people who go to school here are from the city, and of course they go home directly after school, and only a small number of them are outsiders who need to live on campus.
Chen Shi parked the car on the side of the road and said to his sister, "They may have left a long time ago, should we call and ask?"
Chen Jing said: "Wait a while, I'll call and ask." ”
Chen Shi's eyes looked at the gate of the school, Chen Jing dialed the phone and asked, "Are you leaving?"
It was Chen Ying on the other end of the phone, and she said, "No, I'm still in school, what's wrong?"
When Chen Jing heard this, she immediately said happily: "Come out quickly, your brother and I are waiting outside." ”
After finishing speaking, Chen Jing hung up the phone and said to Chen Shi: "They haven't left yet, wait a while." ”
Chen Shi nodded, and the two waited in the car, but after a while, they saw Chen Dong come out first, and after getting into the car, Chen Shi asked, "What about Chen Ying?"
Chen Dongdao: "It's not that such a big person doesn't know the way, what am I waiting for her to do?
Chen Shi has no way to deal with the problem that Chen Dong and Chen Ying are not used to each other, and he doesn't know why, although the two of them don't deal with each other, there is no big contradiction, which is really incredible.
The three of them waited for a while, but they didn't see Chen Ying come out, Chen Shi said anxiously: "Why haven't you come yet? Is there an accident? I'll go down and take a look." ”
He opened the car door and walked down, walked into the crowd, walked into the school gate, and the students outside the school gate flowed out of it, like a torrent, so that he couldn't see the situation inside, and he was afraid of missing Chen Ying, so he waited at the school gate. But after waiting for more than ten minutes, I didn't see anyone, and my sister Chen Jing also came over.
She asked Chen Shidao, "Haven't you seen her yet?"
Chen Shi shook his head and said, "This Nizi is too wild, what are you doing?"
Chen Jing said: "I'll call again to urge." ”
She was about to make a phone call, but suddenly found Chen Ying in the crowd, and immediately shouted: "Here, Xiao Ying'er." ”
When Chen Ying heard this, she ran over with a smile, and several girls behind her followed, chattering non-stop.
Chen Shi said: "What are you doing in the back? ”
Chen Ying smiled and said, "Don't I have a friend?"
Chen Shi snorted, then walked to the parking lot, and shouted as he walked: "Hurry up, I'll leave if I don't come." ”
After Chen Shi got in the car, Chen Ying was still chatting with his friends, and after Chen Jing also got in the car, he started the car and then honked the horn to urge Chen Ying. Chen Ying reluctantly said goodbye to her friends, and then got into the car.
As soon as she got in the car, her sister Chen Jing criticized her and said, "Don't you know that we are waiting for you? ”
Chen Ying hugged Chen Jing's arm and said coquettishly: "Sister, they are all my good friends, let's talk a few more words, besides, if I knew that you came to pick me up, I would have come out a long time ago, and when you called, if I wanted to leave first, I wouldn't give people face." ”
Chen Shi also criticized her: "Face is not given by others, it is earned by yourself, why don't you give face if you leave early?" I think you want to play a little longer, do you not want to go home, or do you have any secrets that you don't want us to know?"
Chen Ying was dissatisfied: "Don't tell you, of course we girls have secrets." ”
Chen Shi was helpless, so he had to smile bitterly, then started the car and went straight to the direction of home. Half an hour later, the four siblings returned home, and their parents also returned, although they had a business, but because of the help, they didn't have to be so tired, they didn't have to be so busy, they went to see when they had free time, and if there was something at home, or meal time, they had to come back.
The parents had already cooked the meal, and when they saw the four of them coming back together, they asked what was going on, and Chen Shi simply said that because he was on the way, he went to pick them up and come back together, and his parents praised Chen Shi for being sensible.
After the meal, the parents said that it was inconvenient for them to go back and forth, and it cost a lot of money just to take the car, and it was not cost-effective to run several times a day, so Chen Shi proposed: "How about I buy you a car?"
"Buying a car?" the father shook his head and said, "I don't know how to drive, what are I buying it for?"
On the side, Chen Ying suddenly said: "Dad, if you don't want it, give it to me, I will open it." ”
Chen Shi turned to look at her and said, "You know how to drive? Who taught you? How old are you to drive now?"
Chen Ying said proudly: "Anyway, I will open it, or you will give me the key to give it a try?" Chen Shi didn't dare to give it to her, he knew that the little sister Chen Ying's courage was not small, and he was more rebellious, if he had an accident while driving, he would regret it.
Mother glared at Chen Ying and said, "At a young age, you don't study well, learn what to drive, I see that you are just idle, just help me if you have nothing to do, there is so much work in the store, I will arrange one random and let you do it for a day, and you will be tired." ”
Chen Ying retorted: "Hmph, isn't there an Uncle Wang in the store? It's redundant for me to go, and I won't braise meat, I will only eat it." ”
The mother ignored Chen Ying, but said to Chen Shi: "Don't buy the car, no one will drive it if you buy it, if Li Yalian is at home, someone will drive it, but who will drive it in the family now? Who has the leisure to drive?"
My sister has a driver's license, so I'll buy a car, and my sister will drive it, and then take you to the vegetable market, and also send the two of them to and from school by the way." ”
My sister hesitated slightly: "I'...... Although I have a driver's license, I haven't driven much before, and I'm afraid I won't be able to drive well. ”
First, she has no self-confidence, and secondly, she doesn't want her brother to buy a car for her to drive.
Chen Shi said: "It's okay, it's good to practice more, who can make perfect, just drive a few more times." ”
Father also said: "By the way, you can practice more and become familiar, and it is more convenient and safer to drive Chen Dong and Chen Ying to and from school." ”
As soon as his father made the final decision, the matter was settled, and then the next day Chen Shi took his sister to buy a car. Along the way, Chen Shi asked her sister what kind of car she liked, and her sister said that it was not good, she only said that she liked the red one, and she didn't know anything else.
Chen Shi and his sister came to the auto mall, and when they couldn't make up their minds, the salesperson on the side asked, "What is the purpose of what you bought it for?" Who drove it? I can help you introduce it. ”
Chen Shi replied: "For your own use, pick up and drop off people to school, what brand is better?"
The salesperson said: "Toyota and Buick are good, and the styling is also very novel and fashionable. ”
When Chen Shi heard this, he immediately shook his head and said, "I don't want Japanese cars, I don't like Japanese things." "He really has this habit, no matter how good Japanese things are, he has a thorn in his heart and doesn't like to use them. What's more, when he thought of Japanese cars, he immediately remembered that after Japan nationalized the Diaoyu Islands, the anti-Japanese sentiment in the country was high, and then many Japanese cars were smashed, and he didn't want to be a victim.
The salesperson said, "Then I will introduce you to GM or Mercedes-Benz?"
Chen Shi asked his sister's opinion, and my sister shook her head and said, "I don't understand, but first of all, we have to look good, let's go and see it first." ”
The sales staff immediately took them to the exhibition area, looked at it for a while, while looking, the sales staff introduced the functional configuration of the vehicle to the sister, the sister nodded from time to time, Chen Shi asked her which one she liked, the sister pointed to a red car in front of her and said: "Just it! The appearance is very good, the price is also affordable, the space inside is not small, the front and back feel very spacious, if the parents and younger siblings sit on it together, there is no problem." ”
Chen Shi nodded, there are just four parents and younger siblings, three can sit in the back seat, and one more in the co-pilot, and then it is just right, and one more can't sit down. Go out to show the truth, their family can be regarded as able to do it in one car.
Another point is that the place where my parents buy braised pork and the place where my sister and younger siblings go to school just along the way, they are on the same line, and my sister is the farthest, so it is just right for her to drive.
Both of them unanimously decided to want this red car, and then the sales staff went through the formalities and drove away immediately, because Chen Shi and his sister both have driver's licenses, so they don't have to worry about encountering traffic police problems after driving on the road, and the two of them will go directly to the road.
