37. An expensive meal

The returnee left in a hurry because of something at home, and my brother relayed Jiang Shengmu's apology to me. I think it's completely understandable, after all, he and I have only just met for the first time, and of course it's a family matter.

"Hey, guess how much that meal cost just now?" Xia Longwen watched my brother walk over to Qian Lei and looked at me slyly.

"How much?" I thought of the fact that he unceremoniously took the order book when he thought of it, and the dead boy must have made it bad. I tried to think about it, and the dishes on the table looked pretty normal. My brother socializes a lot, but he doesn't look out of the ordinary when he eats.

But Jiang Shengmu did introduce several dishes very solemnly, and now that he thinks about it, he should be hinting that our dishes are so expensive.

"Guess. He took a step back, and the plane was ready to run away.

"A thousand?" I asked, grinding my teeth.

He shook his head, "What do you think you've eaten?"

"Two thousand?" I clenched my fists.

He still shook his head, took another step back, and said, "Don't be so nervous, guess again." ”

I took two steps and grabbed him by the collar and growled, "How much?"

"Don't be excited, your mother, your brother, and Qian Lei and your nephew are looking at you?" he easily pulled my hand away, "More than three thousand, I don't know how much three thousand it is." Xu Weilan, I'm just going to help you test whether this man is a stingy person. Although he paid the money, his character, I think, is average, very average. ”

"You...... Why did you let someone who met us for the first time invite us to such an expensive meal?" "I'm really going crazy with him, how would Jiang Shengmu know that Xia Langwen came out of nowhere, he would only think that I secretly instigated this. No wonder he didn't even say hello just now, and left on his own.

"You're angry?" he said, looking at me, "shouldn't I be on my own?"

"Jiang Shengmu is gone now, now, can you get out?" I glanced at him coldly, and then walked quickly in the direction of the pavilion.

"Hey, Xu Weilan, hey!" Xia Langwen caught up, "When chatting in the morning, didn't he say that his relationship with you was premised on marriage?

"Stay away from me!" I was so angry that my liver hurt a little.

"He has his own research funds abroad, Xu Weilan, do you know how much he is worth?" he asked after me.

"Stay away from me!" I quickened.

"Where are you going?" he still followed me.

"You don't care where I go. "I went faster and faster.

"Don't do that, it's a big deal, I'll go and apologize to him. "He's hippie smiling.

"Charanwen, what do you want to do? If you just want to mess with and sabotage my blind date, congratulations, your goal has been achieved. Now, get out of here!" I said in a heavy tone, I didn't mind some innocuous jokes in the past, but now he was messing around.

Charronvin paused, and after looking at me fixedly for a few seconds, he smiled, "You're really angry." ”

After saying this, he looked away into the distance, and then whispered, "I'm sorry!"

Without saying a word, I continued walking, and soon I walked out of the tea house. Along the winding road, I walked down the mountain with a fire in my stomach, and after turning a corner, my brother called me.

"I just take a walk. I pulled myself together and said to my brother in a relaxed tone.

"I thought you ran away, Xiao Xia's friend sent a fruit plate, do you want to come back and eat some?" my brother asked me again.

"Eat, I've got a phone call coming in, hang up. I cut off the phone.

When I was halfway up the mountain, there was a van coming down, so I got in the van and went down. After getting off the bus, I walked to the bus stop next to it.

After getting on the bus, I called my brother and said that my friend had an appointment, so he would go down the mountain first and ask him not to look for me. My brother didn't ask much, just told me to go home early.

As the bus swayed to the Second Ring Road, I received a text message from an unfamiliar number.

"Weilan, it's a pleasure to meet you, Jiang Shengmu. ”

I looked at the text message and wondered if he was really happy, or was he unwilling to accept the more than 3,000 dollars he had spent? Before I could finish it, he sent a second text message.

"Because my mother has a heart discomfort, I hurriedly returned home, I'm sorry!"

I was a little uncomfortable with his wording, and after thinking about it, I replied, "Is your mother okay?"

He replied, "It's much better now." ”

I replied, "That's good." ”

After I sent my message back, he didn't send it again, and I was relieved, otherwise I would have had a headache how to reply to the text message to be decent.

After wandering around the city of F, at half past four in the afternoon, I felt much calmer, and I took the bus back to the vicinity of Xiaobao School. The little girl was particularly interested in my blind date today, and held my hand and kept asking.

"Mom, why are you taking me to that uncle?" asked Xiaobao with his head up.

"After a while. I laughed.

"Do you think he'll like me?" she said worriedly.

"If he doesn't like you, Mom doesn't want him. "I mean it.

"That'...... What if all the uncles don't like me?Mom, what are you going to do?" Xiaobao was even more worried.

I laughed dumbly, "Silly girl, no." ”

When I walked downstairs to the community, I called Qian Lei, chatted a few words, and heard from her words that Charanwen's dead boy was gone.

I hung up the phone and walked to my house with the fruit I bought at the intersection, went upstairs, and was still opening the door, and Qian Lei ran out.

"Sister, what kind of friends are you looking for you, it's really unpleasant, and then Xiao Xia's friends sent us a lot of food. And then his friend brought us tea again, you see, that's what it was on the coffee table. Qian Lei looked at me with a smile, "This Xiao Xia is really good." ”

"Huh, huh?" I shoved the fruit into her hand.

"Husband, do you think Xiao Xia is very good?" Qian Lei dragged me into the living room.

"Weiliang, do you know how much we ate for lunch just now?" I asked my brother.

"I don't know, but there are a few treasures, it's rare that the restaurant has ingredients, why do you ask this?" Array macro stroke.

"It's okay, I'm just a little curious. I said casually.

"But no matter how expensive that rice is, it's not as expensive as Xiao Xia's tea. My brother hugged Nannan, who was reaching for the socket, and when he turned around, he asked me again, "Is Xiao Xia really collecting garbage?"

I frowned, what kind of broken tea is not worth a meal? Hearing my brother ask me, I spread my hands, "I haven't seen him a few times in Shenzhen, how do I know." ”

For a few days in a row, but every time the family sat together, they always had to mention Charanwen, especially Qian Lei, and praised him like a flower. On the contrary, it was Jiang Shengmu, no one asked me how I was developing with him?

Charanwen probably went back to Shenzhen, anyway, he didn't bother me anymore. Jiang Shengmu maintains the frequency of three text messages and one phone call every day, and the text messages and calls are punctual like the alarm clock on my mobile phone.
