Chapter 33: The Story of the Frog Prince

Chen Yang didn't sleep well all night, tossed and turned in bed, and thought a lot.

At dawn, I became sleepy, closed my eyes and slept for a while, and in a hazy way I heard someone knocking on the door.

Someone said outside the door: "Don't knock on the door, let the old man sleep again, be careful that he wakes up and scolds." ”

It's Yuan Shanshan's voice!

Chen Yang hurriedly turned over and opened the door barefoot.

Three people outside the door.

Ah Fu, Yuan Shanshan, and a middle-aged woman I don't know.

"This is ......"

"This is my mom. Yuan Shanshan hurriedly introduced.

"Oh, hello. Chen Yang didn't know what to call it.

The woman was in her 40s, and she may have looked good when she was young, but now her facial features are slack, and her mouth is a little drooping, and she looks bitter.

"Hello old man!" the woman nodded at Chen Yang like a chicken pecking rice.

"My mother's surname is Wu and her name is Lady. Yuan Shanshan said softly.

"Oh, Xiao Wu, come in. ”

I have to call it like this, the 90-year-old man sees a middle-aged man in his 40s who doesn't call Xiao Wu anything, and it is enough to call you a doll.

Lady Wu and her daughter entered Chen Yang's bedroom, and Yuan Shanshan went over to open the curtains. It has already been three poles in the day.

Lady Wu stood and didn't dare to sit.

Yuan Shanshan pulled her to the side of the chair and said, "Mom, sit down." ”

Chen Yang also said: "Sit, sit." ”

The three of them sat down, and Lady Wu said, "Old man, I'm sorry, my son is really ignorant, don't be weird." ”

After Yuan Shanshan went back last night to tell what happened in the garden, Lady Wu was so angry that she picked up a broom and beat her son hard, thinking about it or not worrying, she urged Yuan Shanshan to come to Chen's mansion, saying that she wanted to apologize to the old man in person.

Yuan Shanshan has not been in Chen's Mansion for a day or two, and she will go back to tell her parents about some of the things Chen Yang does, and sometimes she can't help but talk about it on the phone. Demolishing the waste-to-energy plant, taking the initiative to compensate the villagers for their medical expenses, sparing Zhang Aniu, relieving Huang Huiqin, and changing the hospital for Sun Chenghu's daughter, which is not a good thing or a good thing.

In Lady Wu's mind, she had long regarded the old man of the Chen family as a good person who did good deeds and accumulated virtues, and she didn't believe that he would do anything dirty.

I met today, and under the influence of Chen Yang's +1 charm value, I consolidated my original good impression of him, and I hated how my son could offend such a character, and I was angry and anxious. was worried that her daughter would be fired by the Chen family, which added to her worries, and she inevitably became a little incoherent when she spoke. After talking for a while, I felt ashamed and burst into tears.

Seeing her like this, Chen Yang was embarrassed and comforted: "What does a child's business have to do with adults." It's not all bad. He still loves his sister very much, and he is afraid that Shanshan will be bullied by an old man like me. In addition, it also shows that your family style is positive, and the children you have educated are self-respecting and self-loving. ”

As soon as she said this, Yuan Shanshan's eyes lit up, and she stared at Chen Yang with a fierce gaze.

Lady Wu became more and more uneasy. But the uneasiness was gone, and the tears were put away. Because she had already heard from Chen Yang's voice, her daughter would definitely not be fired.

After another conversation, Chen Yang asked Yuan Shanshan to take her mother around Chen's mansion.

Yuan Shanshan took her mother to see the garden first, and then looked at all the interesting places in Chen's mansion, and finally came to her suite.

Lady Wu looked at the luxurious layout in the room and was amazed.

Before leaving, Lady Wu took her daughter's hand and hesitated again and again before she commanded softly: "The old man is 90 years old, if there is any out-of-the-ordinary action, don't care, he is about to enter the ground, and you can't suffer a loss." ”

Yuan Shanshan burst into tears after saying a few words, how strong her mother used to be, and now she has become such a person who suffers from gains and losses, and she has not been wiped out by the days of debt.

When Lady Wu saw her daughter crying, she felt bored and cried. Yuan Shanshan turned around again to comfort her mother.

It was lunch time for this toss, and Chen Yang forced Lady Wu to eat and gave her many gifts before asking the driver to send her back. Yuan Shanshan stayed in the Chen Mansion.

Chen Yang looked at the book in the study for a while, and when he heard someone knocking on the door, he thought it was Li Huashu coming. The result was Yuan Shanshan.

Yuan Shanshan entered the study, but she didn't know what to say, and the two were relatively speechless.

After a while, Chen Yang said: "Shanshan, there is a story called "The Frog Prince", have you heard of it?"

Yuan Shanshan said: "I haven't heard it, what kind of story is that?"

The story of "The Frog Prince" is widely spread on the earth, and Yuan Shanshan has never heard it, which can only mean that this story does not exist in this world at all.

Chen Yang said: "This story is very old, it is a story I heard when I was a child. ”

"The story of the old man when he was a child, that is the old story of more than 80 years ago. Yuan Shanshan thought so.

"Want to hear it?"

"I want to hear it. ”

Yuan Shanshan likes old stories the most. In her eyes, old things have a special taste, not alcohol, but better than alcohol.

The story of "The Frog Prince" is simple, about a prince who is enchanted by a witch and turns into a frog. The frog helps the princess and wants to be good friends with her, but the princess hates him and throws him against the wall. As a result, when he landed, the frog turned back into a prince and lived happily with the princess ever since.

Yuan Shanshan was very puzzled when she heard the story, and she asked Chen Yang, since the princess threw the frog against the wall, it means that she has no love for the frog, why does the prince still marry her?

Chen Yang originally intended to use this story as a metaphor to vaguely explain his current situation, but he didn't expect this girl to look at the problem from a tricky and strange angle, and even questioned the rationality of the story, caught off guard, was asked, and thought for a while: "Maybe when the prince was a frog, women all over the world hated him." ”

Yuan Shanshan said: "I don't believe it, there is always a woman with a unique vision." ”

Chen Yang said: "I have the right to speak on this, when the prince is still a frog, no woman will like him." The gap between frogs and humans is too big for you to fall in love with a frog. ”

Yuan Shanshan smiled and said, "What right do you have, are you the frog prince?"

Chen Yang looked at Yuan Shanshan with sparkling eyes and did not speak.

But in my heart I said, "Am I not the frog now?"

The strange thought in Yuan Shanshan's mind came out again: it seemed that the person sitting in front of him was not a 90-year-old man, but a 19-year-old youth.

She quickly shook her head to dispel the illusion.

Chen Yang said: "If I say that I am the Frog Prince, what will you think?"

Yuan Shanshan grinned and said, "What else can I think, then I can only smash you against the wall and turn you back into a frog." Maybe there's a frog princess waiting for you, too. ”

Chen Yang smiled: "Yes, yes, you answered very well." ”

This girl can't read through the mysteries, and he can't do anything about it.

Yuan Shanshan saw that he was suddenly depressed, and thought that he was tired, so she found an excuse to leave.

When I got to the door, I was still wondering: "Why did the old man tell himself such a story?"
