Chapter 202: On TV
"You really don't know?" Old Tom looked at Edward carefully, the expression on his face was very serious, and he couldn't find the slightest disguise or falsehood, then he nodded and said, "Then let's talk about it at home, and have some breakfast!"
"What else is breakfast, we're here to borrow a tricycle!, old fellow, lend us a tricycle, we're about to walk!" said Delis, however, suddenly.
"Don't worry about this matter first!" Hearing Delith's words, Edward immediately couldn't help but raise his palm, Delith suddenly screamed for fear and didn't dare to say more, and then Edward turned to old Tom and said, "Go, go to your house!"
"Okay, I've got the black tea I just got here, it's pretty good, I can give you a taste!" Old Tom was also hospitable, he nodded, walked towards his door, adjusted the plastic bag in his hand, and put one of them into Edward's hand, and took out the key with his free hand, and opened the door, and the cats in the room pounced out with great joy and joy, and surrounded him, and screamed.
"Hahaha, good boys, Daddy is back, haha!" Old Tom laughed when he saw the cats, but Delis in the back couldn't help but wrinkle his nose, and at the same time a cat walked up to Delis's side, but all of a sudden the hair on his body stood up, his eyes widened, and he grinned at her.
"Damn the cat!" said Delis, who frowned for a moment, and was about to reach out and kick the cat in front of her.
"Hahaha, Delis, the cats like you too! Come in, come in, come and sit inside, I have your favorite coffee, hehe, it's still a boutique! It will definitely satisfy you, of course, if you want to be my daughter-in-law, no matter which son you have, I will give you this coffee at once!" said Old Tom with a smile.
"Is there really good coffee?" then I'm sure I'm going to try it!" Delis said happily for a while, but when she heard the latter words, she immediately couldn't help but pursed her mouth, and said very unhappily: "Hmph, as far as your old Tom's tasting level is concerned, even if there is good coffee, its level is quite limited, and it's just a little coffee, and you want me to be your daughter-in-law, you old guy is really old and dizzy!"
"I don't care, whether you want to drink it or not, it's your business!" Old Tom didn't care, he had already walked into the room between words, Edward naturally followed, and at the same time there were a large number of cats around, and at this time, a cat that barked incessantly at Delis also walked away and followed into the room.
"Of course you have to drink it, since it's free coffee, why don't you drink it, but it can't be too bad, if it's the instant one, forget it!...... Presumably you don't have any good goods, and I recognize the instant ones, but they must be brand-name goods, even if the taste is poor, it can't be too bad!" said Delis, making her own request.
"Of course, of course, there are delicious little cakes to eat, hehe, fresh strawberries!" said Old Tom, continuing the seduction.
"Really, really! Then we can look forward to it further!" Delis hurriedly followed, but she did not forget to tidy up the things she was carrying and put them at the door, not worried about being stolen, such a thing has not happened in this town for a long time, but at least don't be damaged by passing bear children, this is a relatively common thing.
"With so many things, where are you going?" asked Old Tom, a little curious.
"Hey, I won't tell you, it's a secret!" said Delis, pouting, not going to say it.
"Secret, then don't ask, sit down, I'll go get ready!" Old Tom smiled, and was not ready to get to the bottom of it, and then beckoned to Edward and Delis, he put down his things, and headed towards the kitchen, and Edward and Alice found a seat one after another and sat down.
Although she hasn't been here for a long time, it's obvious that the furnishings in the room haven't changed much, so Delith looks very familiar, and sits directly on one of the sofas, and this seems to be her favorite position to sit in the past, and then she found the nearby remote control as if she was in her own home, and opened the TV series with a light press, casually adjusted a few stations, and then began to watch the show, Delisi was of course relaxed and relaxed, and even touched an apple on the table with her palm and gnawed it directlyIt's really like being in your own home.
As for Edward, he was a little worried, even if he sat down, he was still not in a good mood at all, and suddenly saw Delith turn on the TV, he thought for a while, but quickly snatched the remote control from Delisy's hand in his hand.
"What are you doing, my remote!" Delith was taken aback, and when she reacted, the remote control had already fallen into Edward's hands, and she couldn't help but flatten her mouth for a moment, and couldn't help but shout.
But Edward ignored it, he quickly pressed the remote control, and immediately changed the TV program to the local local news station, and then Edward put the remote control aside and watched it seriously.
Noticing that Edward didn't pay attention to herself, Delis also put away her expression, but her eyes turned, vaguely wanting to snatch the remote control back, but seeing the serious expression on Edward's face, even the arrogant Delis could only temporarily restrain herself, it was obvious that if she dared to do something at this time, she would be taught a hard lesson.
Delisse could only nibble on the apple in her hand boredly, crunch, crunch!
At this time, a few cats involuntarily came over, as if they were very interested in the apple in Delis's mouth, but for her person they were cautious, not daring to approach easily, wandering around, constantly probing, getting closer for a while, and then noticing Delis's reaction, a little bigger, the cats quickly dispersed around, and then repeated such an action, the appearance was very cute and interesting.
Delis didn't care about cats, as if in her heart except for coffee, pastries, and her favorite stereo, cats were not at all what she cared about, just some little monsters with shrugged hair, sharp teeth, and like to scream!
"Ready, haha, the coffee I carefully concocted! Delis, you are blessed!How about it, are you interested in being my daughter-in-law, haha, not only will the coffee be given to you, but also the recipe is secret!" Old Tom said very happily, and walked out of the kitchen with a tray in his hand, and in an instant a very strong aroma spread all around, and Delise involuntarily stood up from her seat, and then ran quickly towards this side.
"This aroma...... Could it be...... Puerto Rican national treasure coffee, very mild and delicious aroma, just smelling this aroma makes people have an unbearable **, want to swallow it into the mouth!" Delis exclaimed happily, but after getting closer, she couldn't help but shake her head and said: "No, it seems to be Arabica coffee grown in Rwanda, this unique fruit sweet aroma and rich grass aroma are mixed together, it is simply infinitely intoxicating!"
"If you say so much, how can it compare to a direct drink!" said old Tom, and then beckoned to Edward, "Come and sit, you can see the TV from here!"
Old Tom put the things in his hand on the dining table, a small dining table, can sit five or six people, this is a very traditional dining table in the Western world, placed in a small space, does not take up space, but perfectly integrated with the surrounding environment, is a must-have decoration in the Western world family.
Delis has already sat down, just waiting for the announcement to start eating, she is going to eat and drink, in the Western world such etiquette also exists, at least until the host says that if you eat, you can do it, of course, more elaborate, you must thank God before eating, but unless it is some devout believers, such etiquette is now less.
Edward didn't look in the mood at this time, but he also walked to the table and sat down, but his eyes were still on the TV show, oh! more accurately, on the TV news.
"Try it, it's very good, I got the coffee with great difficulty, and there are small cakes, fresh strawberries! Breakfast is a gift from Brand, but it's still very good, haha!" said Old Tom very happily.
"Well, it's really good coffee, it's just a lot of flavor, and people can't drink what the place of origin is, but the entrance gives people a pretty good sense of pleasure and happiness, haha, I didn't expect you, an old guy, to be able to get such coffee, it's just this kind of coffee, but it's not enough for me to be your daughter-in-law! In addition, this little cake tastes good, and the strawberries are indeed fresh, and this head is not small, but at best it is only a good level, and when it comes to good, it is not enough!"
"The coffee is just delicious, why do you have to know where the origin is, the cake doesn't have to be demanding, it's not a professional like you, it's not bad to do this, hehe! But I can't be my daughter-in-law, this thing is really disappointing!" Old Tom didn't care very much and said that what he said before was actually just a joke, but of course it was not ruled out that he did have such an idea in his heart, but as far as Delith's idea was concerned, it was impossible for him to get his wish.
"By the way, what's going on with this breakfast, why does Brande send breakfast, this is something that has never happened before, although this guy is sometimes a philanthropist and has done some good things for the town, but most of them are just fame, and he is essentially a big profiteer!" Delis said casually, her statement is actually the general opinion of the townspeople in the town about Brand, even if he does good deeds, he is just selling his reputation, in fact, his essence as a big profiteer will never change.
Of course, even if Brande is really a big profiteer, oh! In fact, there is nothing wrong with this, he is indeed a big profiteer, but as for the various good things he has done for the town, whether it is because of the practice of selling fame and reputation, but good things are good things, which is indeed implemented, but it is not like some leadership level figures, good deeds are all lip service, and the reputation is forgotten, but the result is not implemented at all, after the reputation is over, this matter is over, in fact, there is no half a dime to pull it out, frankly speaking, this is undoubtedly more hateful!
It's just that while the general public curses such a leader-level figure, they will not talk about the benefits of the small-town merchant Brand, but will only regard it as a raccoon dog, and he should do good deeds, of course, even if he does, he is still a profiteer, which will never change since he was hung up with the brand of profiteer.
"Of course it's a big profiteer, if it's not a profiteer, how can he make so much money, and it's linked to the government, it's not a good thing, this time too, if it wasn't for a big incident, he would be so kind to send breakfast, hehe, I see, at noon, at night, I have to go to him for trouble, hahahaha, maybe there will be Chinese food, dinner can be eaten!" Old Tom laughed, as if he really planned to do this.
"What the hell is going on?, Brand's got into trouble, by the way, we had a ...... yesterday," said Delis, suddenly remembering something.
"Don't talk nonsense, old Tom, what you said before, now explain it to me in detail!" Edward said, retracting his gaze from the TV show.
"What's the matter?" said old Tom, looking at Delis a little strangely.
"It's nothing, it's nothing, it's really good coffee, but I always think it's a little weird......" Delis's eyes turned back to the coffee in front of her, and didn't answer Old Tom's words, but Old Tom didn't seem to care too much, he turned his gaze to Edward.
"Isn't that what happened, now the whole town has spread, and the demolition plan has been completely terminated!" Old Tom said very casually, not too much to heart, although when he heard the news, he was really surprised, but time has passed, after the mood calms down, it feels like that, there is really nothing better to care about too much, life is still the same life, people are still alive as usual, and even if the demolition plan is canceled, there is also a certain benefit, although it can be said that a considerable amount of compensation is not available for him, but at this age there is no need to move to another place and find another address, but it is also motionless and quiet, and he can finally return to his normal life, why not do it, not to mention that at his age, he is not short of so much money, of course, it is possible that several of his women may have some dissatisfaction, but he will not care at all.
"It's stopped, how is it possible, it's ...... so soon" Delis was taken aback, and almost dropped the coffee cup in her hand on the table, but fortunately, at the last moment, she held the coffee cup in her hand steadily, so that nothing like this happened.
"How did you do it, and what happened in it?" asked Edward in a hurry.
"There is a ...... about this matter" Old Tom grabbed his hair, the armor on his body was replaced by him into a casual dress, now he is not a majestic axe-wielding warrior, but a very ordinary old man in a country town, without that part of the might, at this time Old Tom seemed more peaceful and calm, he sorted out his thoughts, just when he was about to answer, a word suddenly sounded in the TV show, and immediately attracted the attention of the three people present.
"Regarding the sudden cancellation of the demolition plan of Lola Town, the reason and the inside story, we urgently contacted the relevant departments and personnel, but no one came forward to explain, can we doubt that there is something unspeakable in this, or there is something important hidden inside, now please listen to the latest news sent back by our reporter!" A voice sounded in the TV program, and a beautiful blonde anchor with fluent and clear speech sat behind a news station with a speech in her hand, and said with a serious expression on her face.
"It's on TV!" said Delis, who was extremely surprised, feeling a little strange, what happened around her turned into a TV show at this time, which really made Delis, who was an ordinary person, a little unaccustomed for a while.
"Haha, it's on TV, it's funny!" Old Tom was completely gloating, anyway, no matter what happened, he couldn't be involved as an ordinary person after all, but it seemed that Brande seemed to be unlucky, which was enough to make people happy.
"Don't speak, listen carefully!" said Edward at this time.
