Chapter 334 [Curiosity]
From the Soaring Group Building to the commercial street, Chen Fan rode for an hour, attracting countless passers-by to look sideways along the way, most of them men looking at the fields and grass, in contrast, few women looked at Chen Fan, especially adult women.
After all, for most adult women, it is acceptable to be ridden by their own man on a bicycle on the street once in a while, because it is called romance, and it is absolutely unacceptable to have too many times, because it is called shabby.
They would rather have the satisfaction of vanity in a BMW than the sour romance of poverty.
In the words of a woman who was once famous for a quote: I'd rather cry in a BMW than smile on a bicycle.
Reality.
In this era of fighting for fathers and pursuing material interests, both men and women have learned reality, but in comparison, men are not as lùbone as women behave!
Chen Fan put the electric bicycle in a parking lot at the entrance of the commercial street, which attracted several "successful people" who parked their cars to show a look of envy, jealousy and hatred, as if to say: This Nima is really a flower inserted into cow dung.
Chen Fan ignored the jealous expressions and mocking eyes of those "successful people", and Tian Cao naturally ignored them.
In her opinion, a man who can make a phone call to attend the high-level meeting of the Soaring Group needs to prove his identity with something like a car?
"It's eleven o'clock now, we can go shopping for an hour first, and then go to eat Malatang, I heard from my classmates that there is a restaurant near here that tastes very good." Walking side by side with Chen Fan in the crowd, Tian Cao couldn't be as bold as before, and didn't hold Chen Fan's arm.
"Do you like to eat Malatang?" Chen Fan asked curiously, he didn't know about the hobby of field grass.
"Hmm." Tian Cao nodded: "But I haven't eaten outside, it's all made by my mother." ”
Hearing Tian Cao say this, Chen Fan was silent for a while, he knew that for many children, eating Malatang was a cheap consumption, and for Tian Cao, eating Malatang outside might be a very luxurious behavior.
Seeing that Chen Fan was silent, Tian Cao didn't feel how embarrassed it was to not dare to eat Malatang on the street before, but raised a bright smile and said, "Let's go to the mall for a walk." My mom has always had bad feet, and I want to buy her a foot bath so that she can use the foot bath every day.
Also, although my mother has been in the East China Sea for more than ten years, she still does not adapt to the wet and cold of the East China Sea, so I want to buy her an air conditioner so that she is no longer afraid of the cold in winter. Finally, I want to buy her a washing machine. ”
Speaking of this, Tian Cao's voice appeared a little strange: "Originally, I grew up, and I did everything I could do to wash clothes, so I should do it myself." But...... My mother had to ask me to take my clothes back every week, and she washed them, saying that she couldn't delay my studies because of the laundry. ”
"The first few times I washed myself, she was very angry when she went back and didn't talk to me for a few days." Speaking of this, Tian Cao's eyes were slightly red: "Now that I have bought a fully automatic washing machine, she doesn't have to worry about washing my clothes every week, and I don't have to make her angry because I wash my own clothes." ”
Chen Fan was silent again.
In the face of Tian Cao's words, a certain string in his heart was touched, and he wanted to say something, but ...... When he opened his mouth, he found that he couldn't say anything.
In the following hour, Chen Fan followed Tian Cao to the mall to buy a foot bath, air conditioner and washing machine.
One of the foot baths is the most expensive to buy. The air conditioning and washing machine are mid-range.
The air conditioner and washing machine were personally delivered by the mall and installed at the door, and the foot bathtub was to be taken away on the spot.
After buying these three things, Tian Cao smiled and took Chen Fan to a nearby Malatang shop, the store was overcrowded, most of them were young men and women, among which Gao Fengsheng and college students were the most, and there were almost no guests like Chen Fan and Tian Cao who were dressed formally and had an extraordinary bearing.
Whether it is Tian Cao's simple and queenly temperament, or Chen Fan's rich experience and the vicissitudes of the past, calm, which ordinary people can't have, as soon as the two entered the Malatang restaurant, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.
In the face of these gazes, Chen Fan and Tian Cao didn't care.
For Tian Cao, this is the first time to eat Malatang outside.
For Chen Fan, this is the first time in his life to eat Malatang.
Tian Cao asked for the most spicy, and the two of them enjoyed eating it very much, and when they walked out of the store, they were sweating profusely, but their mood was extremely comfortable.
After eating Malatang, Tian Cao took Chen Fan for an afternoon and bought a lot of things, most of which were bought for Aunt Tian, Tian Cao only bought two clothes, one was a youth outfit, which he wore at school, and the other was a professional outfit, which he kept for future internships.
At half past five in the afternoon, Tian Cao finished shopping with satisfaction, and the two of them were full of handbags, especially Chen Fan, who carried nearly ten of them alone.
"How are we going back?" Looking at the handbag full of hands, Tian Cao was dumbfounded.
Chen Fan smiled and said, "Go back by bicycle." ”
"I can't take that much alone." Tian Cao is carrying six bags in his hand, which is already the limit.
"It's okay, I'll take it." Chen Fan looked like a bamboo with a straight face.
"You take it?" Tian Cao was stunned: "Then how do you ride?" ”
"It's not a difficult thing to do without holding the handlebars with both hands." Chen Fan said, carrying a handbag in both hands, riding on the electric car, and said to the stunned field grass: "What are you still doing, get in the car!" ”
Tian Cao sat on the back seat of the e-bike in disbelief, and then ...... In the dumbfounded expressions of passers-by, Chen Fan carried the handbag in both hands, did not grab the handlebars, and only relied on his body to balance and control his own driving, and left the commercial street......
Compared with when he came, Chen Fan took Tian Cao back to Tian Cao and Aunt Tian's rented house, which is more eye-catching, and the return rate is simply 200 percent!
Along the way, Tian Cao looked very shocked at first, but when he saw the surprised eyes of those passers-by, he seemed to have eaten mì and smiled happily.
Forty minutes later, Chen Fan took Tian Cao to the place where he rented the house.
This is a typical slum area, there are no high-rise buildings nearby, some are only two-story small courtyards, the alleys seem a little dirty, and occasionally you can see garbage littering.
When Aunt Tian opened the door and saw Chen Fan and Tian Cao carrying handbags, she was stunned.
"Mom, my internship is over today, and I originally planned to invite Chen Fan to dinner, but he didn't want to eat outside, so we bought some vegetables and came back." Facing Aunt Tian with a surprised face, Tian Cao explained with a smile: "Mom, I'm going to work hard for you again!" ”
"Silly girl, this is a well." Aunt Tian smiled bitterly and said, "Chen Shao, come in, there is some chaos at home, don't worry about it." ”
Upon entering the room, Chen Fan found a total of three rooms, one of which was the living room, but there was a chuáng, and the other was the bedroom, which contained a single chuáng and a desk, and the desk was full of books, all of which were books in the economic field except for textbooks, and they were all pirated.
The kitchen is next door and is basic but clean.
The room is not as messy as Aunt Tian said, it is very neat and very cold.
There is no heating in the whole room, except for the electric heater in the field and grass room.
All this made Chen Fan unable to imagine how Aunt Tian and Tian Cao's mother and daughter spent the last cold winter.
"Because there is only one electric heater, I squeeze a quilt with my mother every night so that neither of us is cold."
After Aunt Tian went to cook, Tian Cao seemed to see Chen Fan's thoughts, smiled and explained, the smile did not have a bit of hypocrisy and far-fetched taste, it seemed that for her, it was a very happy thing to be able to squeeze a quilt with Aunt Tian.
"Xiaocao, I'll help you rent a new house tomorrow, and I'll rent it near the school." Chen Fan thought for a while and said, "As for spending money, don't be afraid, it's a big deal, I'll let Yang Yuan advance your salary first." ”
Obviously, Chen Fan knew that he would definitely not accept it if he directly gave Tian Cao money and used Tian Cao's xìngzi!
"No, you don't." Tian Cao glanced at Chen Fan with some emotion: "My salary last month was 100,000 yuan, and after the start of school, I will continue to intern, and I will still have a salary at that time." ”
Lakh?
Continuing your internship after the start of school?
Hearing Tian Cao's words, Chen Fan was stunned at first, and then understood that this was Yang Yuan's arrangement. After thinking about it, he said: "You will be in the second semester of your second year of high school at the beginning of school, and you will be in your third year of high school next year, if you continue to intern, won't it affect your academic performance?" ”
"I originally planned to take the university entrance examination in the second year of high school, but if I didn't go to do an internship, I would have to wait another year." Tian Cao shook her head gently, her face full of pride and confidence: "The internship will have a certain impact on my studies, but I believe that I will definitely be able to get the top prize in the Donghai City College Entrance Examination next year!" ”
Feeling Tian Cao's incomparable self-confidence, Chen Fan didn't say anything, he knew very well that that self-confidence was not arrogant, but earned by several times the efforts of others.
The dinner was very rich, six dishes and two soups, the small wooden square table was full, and in order to celebrate, Tian Cao specially bought a bottle of champagne.
During the meal, the happy smile on Tian Cao's face never stopped, and Chen Fan also ate happily.
This feeling is far from being comparable to Chen Fei's eating a table of 10,000 meals like Chen Fei in a five-star hotel.
The only thing that made Chen Fan feel strange was that although Aunt Tian was smiling from time to time during the meal, and gave Chen Fan vegetables, Chen Fan could clearly perceive that the smile on Aunt Tian's face was very far-fetched, and there was a trace of worry hidden in the depths of her eyes.
That worry made Chen Fan vaguely feel that Aunt Tian didn't seem to want him to be with Tian Cao...
This made Chen Fan puzzled!
Intuition told Chen Fan that this had something to do with Aunt Tian's special experience.
A woman who was very beautiful when she was young has not married in the past ten years, and she has pulled up the fields and grass alone with a handful of and urine.
What kind of story is hidden behind this?
For the first time, Chen Fan became curious about Aunt Tian's past experiences!
