027 under the prestige of the eldest lady
Winter in Shanghai generally does not snow, and when it comes to the coldest time in the lunar month, the rain falling from the sky will be mixed with some fine ice particles, making people cold to the bone.
But the temperature on Nanjing Road is always two or three degrees higher, and when you walk here, you will know the reason.
There are many high-rise buildings, famous shops, and pedestrians.
On the asphalt road, there is a lot of traffic. There was a big public tram, and the driver in white uniform stood upright on the bus, clanging past.
There are flexible and cheap rickshaws, and the driver bends deeply to start, with a snow-white scarf around his neck. The guests in the car range from modern and fashionable girls with satchels to old-fashioned gentlemen who wear high manners and hold civilized sticks.
The boy who sold the newspaper shouted:
"Outside the nickname, the famous Chinese doctor, come back to life, and the countries are shaken!"
"Outside the nickname, the immortal medicine is in the world, and all living beings are purified!"
Bright and eye-catching signboards of various shops, one after another bargaining.
In the midst of the colorful dazzle and bustling ups and downs, four brand-new American Ford sedans marched in order.
The Indian patrolman, who was wrapped in a white cloth, scolded in English with a thick accent:
"Rich guys."
Then he pretended to chase the thief who had already run away with his baton.
Four Fords stopped in front of Sincere New World Department Store, and a department store janitor ran to open the door.
Zhang Meixi got out of the car, still wearing the usual upper shirt and lower skirt attire, only wearing a short waist-length cloak of rabbit fur on the outside.
Taking a deep breath of cold and moist air, she was expressionless, and she really didn't want to be so ostentatious. But there is no way, there is the blood of the local wealth advocates in the countryside of Shandong flowing in this body, and if you are not careful, you will be a local tyrant.
Because I called the rental company's car a few times, and I was very wealthy, I thought it would be convenient to buy one myself.
But the eldest young master of the Zhou family loves cars very much, and every time he gives her a cameo as a driver, in order to get along with this domineering president-like teenager a few times, he simply bought him one.
The second young master of the Zhou family was skillful, and the spring breeze turned rain, so that she was inexplicably bewitched and bought him one.
Then the third young master of the Zhou family always looked at her with his aggrieved, pitiful, dark, and honest eyes, and gasped for a sound that was close to whimpering, it was really unbearable, with a wave of his hand, buy four!
Today, Zhang Meixi only took Xiao Tao out, but the three young masters of the Zhou family were well-informed, and they all came with them, and it was not easy to drive them away, so they had to endure all kinds of eyes coming out and going in all the way.
But once it comes, it is safe. Zhang Meixi still admired the big clock of the Magic Star Tower in the department store for a moment, and then went straight to her target, the chemical instrument counter of the department store.
The department store opened by Sincere Company broke the old rules of traditional shops and began to hire female salesmen, which in the eyes of outsiders is simply a living trademark of enlightened and modern in the new era of the Republic of China.
Zhang Meixi was a little speechless and crazy, because these female clerks only knew how to talk about the price, and they didn't know anything about the model and parameters.
If you don't know, forget it, you have to call someone who knows, but the saleswoman will only shake her head at her, her eyes are still hooked, staring at the eldest young master of the Zhou family.
Well, today the three young masters of the Zhou family are wearing tailor-made suits and tweed coats, which look very modern and rich, especially the eldest young master of the Zhou family, who is tall and heroic.
But Young Master Zhou, the military boots he wears are lined with steel plates, he can't even fight, he can kick people to death with one kick, he is simple-minded, murderous, and has carried countless lives, he is really not a good match for the salesman's eldest sister!
Zhang Meixi was most afraid of this kind of person who was unprofessional in her own work, forced herself to calm down, and communicated with the saleswoman repeatedly with a kind attitude, and finally asked her to call the manager in charge, who was enthusiastic, and ran back and forth, shaking the phone to contact the manufacturer of the instrument, but most of the instruments were produced abroad, and it was so easy to contact there.
In the end, I only bought a small part, so I had no choice but to leave a list and entrust the manager in charge to pay attention to it, for fear that he would not be satisfied, and pay a lot of deposits and rewards.
Xiao Tao had already discovered that her eldest lady's love was wrong today, although she was expressionless, and she couldn't see that she was angry.
Just pulled the eldest lady's sleeve and coquettishly:
"I heard Miss Huang Jia say that the coffee of the new world is fragrant and flavorful, so let's try it too."
Zhang Meixi nodded in agreement.
The manager in charge of the chemical instrument sales hall tasted the words and deeds of these people, and enthusiastically pointed them out to the most luxurious café.
There was soft music flowing quietly, and a foreign waiter in a white shirt and a bow tie led the group to a seat, but Xiao Tao stood there restrainedly. Zhang Meixi turned around and pulled her with a smile:
"I don't usually see you restrained. Hurry up and sit down. ”
Xiao Tao sat down cautiously, with a happy face, she sensitively noticed that the eldest lady had regained her usual cordial temperament.
Zhang Meixi asked the waiter in English to order coffee, and asked everyone's opinions, and the second young master of the Zhou family also added in English, this child is far smarter than ordinary people, and he learns too fast.
The waiter quickly brought five cups of coffee, each with a small saucer containing two sugar cubes.
The third young master of the Zhou family was simple, looking embarrassed:
"Is this a rule that you can only eat two sugars per person? But I like sugar. ”
Xiao Tao hurriedly said:
"The third young master eats me, I don't need sugar."
Young Master Zhou didn't speak coldly, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he put his own sugar cube into the third young master's coffee cup, and his movements were precise and did not cause any splash.
With a smile on his face, the young master on Tuesday slowly pushed his own small plate to his little brother.
Young Master Wednesday stared at the plate and narrowed his eyes happily:
"Oops, that's a lot of sugar."
At this time, I heard Zhang Meixi also say:
"Now, I'll give you this too."
On Wednesday, the young master looked up and saw Zhang Meixi stretching out the plate in his hand with a smile, only to feel that his big fat face turned red and angry.
"You guys, you all treat me like a child!"
On Tuesday, the young master ignored his inexplicable awkward brother, raised his hand to summon the waiter, and asked him to bring the newspaper.
The waiter brought a stack of fan-shaped lace newspapers on a plate, a total of more than a dozen, both in Chinese and English, and everyone reached out and selected the newspapers according to their hearts.
Xiao Tao also took a tabloid of lace news in her hand, and looked at Zhang Meixi with some strangeness.
She knows that this eldest lady's first hobby is reading the newspaper, why don't you do it today?
Zhang Meixi silently stirred the coffee with a small silver spoon, put the small spoon in the small saucer on the table, held the coffee cup in her hand, sniffed it lightly, and then tasted it slowly.
I don't know the taste of coffee, and I feel a little panicked and irritable in my heart.
violated her consistent low-key principle, which is really difficult to calm down.
At present, all the newspapers are overwhelming, and the information bombardment is desperately advocating one person -- "Mr. Shandong"
Moreover, most of the newspapers are talking nonsense.
