Chapter 127: Meeting the Parents
"Hello Auntie, my name is Luo Xiaolong, I am a friend of Sophie, and I have come to visit you and my uncle today. ”
Luo Xiaolong carried some gifts and greeted Cui Fangfei's mother with a smile on his face.
"Alright, alright, come in. ”
Cui Fangfei's mother's name is Zhou Yumei, she is not tall, about less than 1.55 meters, she is fat, and Cui Fangfei's current appearance can be vaguely seen on her face, wearing a red silk satin T-shirt, and she also welcomed Luo Xiaolong into the hall and sat down with a smile.
Luo Xiaolong is wearing a white casual short-sleeved shirt today, khaki cropped pants, and a pair of brown casual leather shoes on his feet. This outfit was picked by Cui Fangfei when he went shopping two days ago, as well as the watch he was wearing on his left wrist, which cost a total of about 200,000 yuan, and Luo Xiaolong was startled after checking out.
When Cui Fangfei took the watch to him to try, Luo Xiaolong was answering the phone, just glanced at it casually, he didn't know what brand it was, and he didn't know the price, thinking that it was not too expensive than the smuggled watches that he often saw people in the subway passage, 20 yuan a piece, so he nodded and agreed, but he didn't expect that the "broken watch" would cost 180,000 yuan.
Cui Fangfei swiped the card to pay the bill first, Luo Xiaolong was a little uneasy in his heart, thinking about giving the money back to her, but he was swept over by a roll of the eyes as soon as he got up, and he had to dispel this thought, and cheered himself up: What a big deal, isn't it just to eat soft rice?
Luo Xiaolong hadn't dressed up so "formally" for a long time, but in order to make a good impression in front of his elders, he could only endure the discomfort all over, handed over the gift in his hand and said:
"Auntie, I brought you and my uncle some gifts, and I don't know if you like it or not. ”
"This kid, come on, come on, what else do you bring, don't do this next time." ”
"I said I was going to visit you and my uncle a long time ago, but I haven't found time to come over, I'm sorry. ”
"It's okay, I heard Xiaofei say, you have been in Tibet some time ago, helping your sister-in-law find medicine, right?
"It's all right, thank you for your concern. By the way, this is what I brought back from Tibet, and you and your uncle can wear it when the weather is hot, and it can play a role in calming down and enjoying the coolness. ”
Luo Xiaolong took out two exquisite hand jewelry boxes as he spoke, opened one of them, took out a string of beads, and handed it to Zhou Yumei with both hands. The beads looked inconspicuous, but when they were taken out, a chill gently spread.
Zhou, Cui mother and daughter were quite surprised, they are in the rich house, extraordinary knowledge, Zhou Yumei itself has a lot of valuable jewelry, jade, jade and other jewelry, a few are worth more than 10 million precious treasures, but have never seen like this string of beads, with air conditioning attributes, can not help but be surprised, after taking it, the skin felt the mellow texture of the beads came from a comfortable coolness, wearing on the wrist casually turned, the size, weight is just right.
Zhou Yumei is fat, most fat people are afraid of heat, although there are air conditioners everywhere at home, in the car, and in shopping malls, there are always places where air conditioning is not popular, such as in some famous scenic spots at home and abroad, it is impossible to carry air conditioning with her, so this string of beads solves a big problem for her.
These two strings of beads were polished by Luo Xiaolong himself. The raw material is taken from the stone box that was originally used to preserve the herbs collected. When the sister-in-law was cured, the role of these stone boxes was abandoned for a while. When Cui Fangfei bought clothes for him two days ago, she said that she was going to visit her parents, Luo Xiaolong wanted to give some more distinctive things in addition to buying some gifts, and after hearing that her parents were relatively fat, she had an idea.
The stone of making these stone boxes, soaked in the pool of abundant original air for many years, is no longer an ordinary stone, made into a hand ornament pendant for ordinary people to wear, in addition to allowing the wearer to calm down and enjoy the cool, there is also the effect of collecting the mind, reducing fire and dryness, and is most suitable for some people who are more fat and temperamental.
People rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, Luo Xiaolong was not outstanding, but today he is dressed in such a fashionable outfit, coupled with a strong figure, he also looks young and promising, plus such a gift, he has added a lot of points, Zhou Yumei likes it more and more, and Luo Xiaolong has a homely relationship.
Just after chatting a few words, Cui Fangfei's father came back. Cui's father's name is Cui Maolin, about 1.7 meters tall, he looks to be more than 160 pounds, his skin is dark, his face is smiling, he is wearing a Tang shirt made of mulberry silk fabric, black pants on the bottom, and a pair of old Beijing cloth shoes on his feet. came in and asked casually, "Xiaolong is here?", waved his hand to let Luo Xiaolong sit down and talk, and saw that there was not even a glass of water on the coffee table, and couldn't help but smile:
"Yumei, I heard you and Xiaolong chatting very well, why didn't you even pour him a glass of water, Gan Guhan (so stingy)?. ”
"Oh, look at me, I'm chatting with Xiaolong and forgetting to make tea. ”
"It's okay, Auntie, I'm not thirsty. ”
"Mom, sit down, I'll come. ”
"Huh, Yumei, what is this in your hand? I haven't seen you wear it before?"
"This, this was given to me by Xiaolong, it's very cool and comfortable to wear it, you also have it, Xiaolong didn't favor one over the other, and also brought you one, you wear it and try it." ”
"I'll try,...... Hey, that's true, that's pretty good, Xiaolong, you're very discerning, and this string of beads is pretty good. ”
"My uncle and aunt like it, and I'm relieved. To tell you the truth, these two strings of beads were made by me from a waterhole in Tibet, and then polished them with my own hands. It's not worth much, but it represents a part of my heart. When I took it out just now, I was embarrassed to tell my aunt!"
"Look at you kid, what's so embarrassing about this. This is the best gift we have ever received, and we love it!
"Yes, yes, Xiaolong, you have a heart. By the way, what do you do?"
"I used to start a company in partnership with others, but in November last year, I quit and I haven't been to work very seriously,......
Cui Maolin and Zhou Yumei glanced at each other silently, and just wanted to ask, Cui Fangfei came over with two cups of tea, put them in front of the two men, sat down next to Luo Xiaolong and said:
"He is now mainly looking for projects and making investments. Dad, don't you think this tea is very good? This is the project he excavated, now the funds have been in place, all aspects of the procedures have been running, now in the early stage of publicity, investment and other aspects of the work, next year's spring tea market, you are optimistic about the big dark horse of Shanshen tea. If this project can't see the benefits for the time being, Pan Gaofeng and Jian Qingqing's longan bracelet, you know, right? Xiaolong is also involved and has his shares. ”
"Oh, I said what you did with that money last time, so that's it. Xiaolong, you have such a vision and mind, 9 to 5 in the office itself is not suitable for you, you should be like now, find more potential products, one out of ten can make achievements, you will not lose money...... You're so modest that you've almost been fooled by you. ”
Lao Cui originally heard Luo Xiaolong's "not going to work seriously", and thought that he was an idle and unobtrusive loser, but after hearing Xiao Cui say this, the little dissatisfaction that had just emerged immediately disappeared, and he pulled Luo Xiaolong to talk about business.
In recent years, he has basically handed over the work at hand to the younger generation like Cui Fangfei to take care of, just hanging the title of chairman, there is not much to let him out, and he will feel lonely from time to time in his heart.
"This guy is nice and can talk. ”
Zhou Yumei glanced at it and said, "Are you praising him or yourself?" I see that you have been talking to yourself all night, and Xiaolong has not said a few words. ”
"The point is that what he says is all about the point, this is the model of being able to chat, if two people don't listen to each other, just talk to themselves, or talk to each other like the two of us, then it's not interesting. ”
"Alright, don't blow water here. You've seen people, what do you think?"
"Well, it seems okay at the moment, the important thing is to be good to Xiaofei and not to bully my daughter. ”
"yes, that's for sure. I think he is tall and big, and he looks like an honest man, so he should be more reliable. It's just that he doesn't usually seem to have much time to spend with Xiaofei,......"
"Man, this age is the time to do business, if you stick to Xiaofei every day, there will be a lot of interest there, I don't think there's anything wrong with this. ”
"That's right. Also, I heard Xiaofei say that his parents have passed away a long time ago, and now his cousin's family is a relative, which is quite pitiful. ”
"Pity is pitiful, but this can also make him take care of his family more after he gets married, and cherish his wife and children more. People who have lost their loved ones understand the preciousness of family affection. ”
Luo Xiaolong, who was discussing with the two old men of the Cui family, relaxed the pressure after saying goodbye, and exhaled lightly, feeling that even if he was faced with thousands of troops, there was not as much pressure as his girlfriend's parents.
Cui Fangfei told her parents to send him, and she sent him directly to the car.
"Sophie, aren't you accompanying your uncle and aunt?"
"What do you accompany, when you go back, you will definitely interrogate me like a prisoner, I'm not so stupid. By the way, didn't I tell you, wrap up your work and then tell my parents, it's good for you to talk about yourself like a jobless vagrant, you want them to look down on you, right?"
"You have wronged me, I had already thought of the words, but my uncle suddenly asked like this, and my mind short-circuited as he spoke. You think, if I want to make a bad impression, why should I give my own beads? ”
"Oh, by the way, what's the matter with those two strings of beads? Why haven't I heard of you before?"
"That's a rare stone I found when I was in Tibet, and it was made in a stone box that was used to preserve freshly picked herbs. Now there is no need to preserve herbs, I just brought two of them, and when I heard you say that your uncle and aunt are more fat, I thought that I should be more afraid of heat, so I hurried to do it. Uncle and aunt are now at their age, and I think I don't pay so much attention to the appearance when choosing jewelry, but more about practicality. You think it's best to be practical and beautiful, now only make a few beads, and then find a few jade with better colors to match, and then string them together and then give them to you. ”
"It's pretty much the same, count you as acquaintances. ”
"There is one thing I forgot, you go back and tell your uncle and aunt that after wearing the beads for a period of time, you need to do a maintenance, you can put the beads in water before going to bed at night, it is best to use unpolluted mountain spring water. ”
"Okay, got it. Let's go. ”
"Where?"
"I heard that there is a movie that has just been released that is good, let's go now, and we can catch up with the eleven o'clock file. ”
"Okay, I'll send you back after watching the movie. ”
"That's why you want to get me back? I'm going to sleep with you tonight. However, just sleep, don't think about it. ”
"Don't worry, I'm the same as you think. ”
"Huh, you big scoundrel! I can't imagine you're so filthy...... What a filthy dragon!"
"Hey, hey, hey......"
On the way back from finalizing the Shanshen Tea project last time, Luo Xiaolong had already told Cui Fangfei about the uncertainty of his future, and after he came back, he solved the matter of smashing the store, and after bringing Cui Xueer to the Strong Fitness Club, the two of them had less contact, she was busy with some activities on May Day, Luo Xiaolong was busy training a few people, and at the same time left time for both parties to think about their relationship with each other.
I don't know what Cui Fangfei thinks, after May Day, she and Luo Xiaolong resumed the intimate relationship between their boyfriend and girlfriend, and after work, they met to eat, go shopping, and play together.
Not only that, but she also went further, saying that after her parents saw the photos of her circle of friends, they asked Luo Xiaolong a few times about the situation and wanted to meet him. Luo Xiaolong didn't know how to refuse, so he had today's trip.
