Chapter 267 [Stepping on Iron Shoes and Nowhere to Find] The third watch is complete!
The people of the north are not used to the cold and humidity of the winter in the south, and likewise, the people of the south are not used to the cold and dry of the north.
Yanjing is considered to be an authentic north, although the winter is not as cold as the northeast, but compared to the East China Sea, the temperature is much lower, which directly causes Susan to be very uncomfortable in the East China Sea.
For this reason, she has not been out of the military compound for more than a week.
She didn't sleep lazily like she did in the East China Sea, but went to bed early and got up early every day, and went to report with Chen Fan on time at seven o'clock in the morning, and had breakfast together, after breakfast, the two chatted with Mrs. Chen together, and at nine o'clock, the two would take the initiative to leave.
Because............ From nine o'clock to twelve o'clock, it is a special time for Mrs. Chen.
Compared with the time spent with Mrs. Chen, Susan spent more time with her mother-in-law Sun Yaling, and the two had more topics.
Before coming to Donghai, although Susan used her spare time to study cooking and put it into action, she ......,... Because I don't have the talent in this area, the effect is not very obvious. In such a situation, Susan did not have the slightest confidence in her cooking skills.
Fortunately, both Chen Zhanfu and Old Man Chen have special chefs, and it is not Susan's turn to "show their talents" at all.
On this day, Chen Fan and Susan chatted as usual after eating breakfast with Mrs. Chen.
"By the way, Miss Su, do you know how to cook?" When the chat was halfway through, Old Lady Chen suddenly asked.
Susan, who was originally in a happy mood because of the chat, was stunned to hear Mrs. Chen's words, her smile stiffened on the spot, and even Chen Fan on the side had a strange expression.
At the beginning, Chen Fan, who was called a poison "sweet and sour loin", remembered it vividly......
"Back to the old lady, Shanshan can cook." After a brief pause, Susan replied, slightly alarmed.
When Mrs. Chen heard this, it was as if she had discovered a new world: "That's it, I'll inform Xiaozhu in a while" I won't do today's lunch meal, you will be in charge of Su Yatou, and I will also try your craftsmanship, old lady." ”
Hearing Mrs. Chen's words, Susan was dumbfounded on the spot, "............
Chen Fan felt that his facial muscles were twitching~ He seemed to have seen the scene that was about to be staged.
"Okay" old lady. Although she didn't have much confidence in her cooking skills, Susan didn't flinch at this juncture, but mustered up the courage to agree, without giving Chen Fan the slightest chance to interject.
Chen Fan yù cried without tears.
"Haha, then I'm just waiting to taste your craft!" Old Lady Chen smiled heartily, got up and left the restaurant with the support of the guard's small pillar.
"Wife, can you do it?" Seeing Old Lady Chen leave," Chen Fan asked with a worried face.
Susan was already at a loss in her heart, and she was even more nervous when Chen Fan asked her like this, but she still gritted her teeth and said: "You stupid" actually has no confidence in me at all. Do you think all my hard work some time ago has been in vain? ”
"Well, I don't know if it's in vain, I just hope you don't make a poison, the old lady is too old to stand your toss." Chen Fan was worried.
was reminded by Chen Fan, Susan was also stunned, and then said thoughtfully: "That's it" Every time I finish cooking a dish, you taste it first, if it doesn't work, change it, and if it doesn't work in the end, "Just find a master to guide you, so it should be no problem." ”
"Well, that's a way to do it." Chen Fan's eyes lit up.
For the rest of the morning, Chen Fan became Susan's sidekick, and Susan became a chef.
As a result, "... After the poor little attendant tasted the chef's six dishes in a row, he went straight to the thatched house, and Susan had to let the master chef who cooked for Mrs. Chen guide her.
In fact, with Susan's current cooking skills, the food she makes is not good. "But the nose can go down, it's just ...... Because it was a huā girl who got on the sedan chair~ the first time, "Susan was too nervous, and as a result, she played abnormally."
However, our "chef" is still very smart, although she invited the master chef to guide her, but she did not follow the master's habit of cooking in the past, but made another taste of food under the guidance of the master.
As a direct result of this, at lunchtime, Mrs. Chen was full of praise.
Chen Fan, who knew the inside story, couldn't cry or laugh, and Susan was continuously praised by Mrs. Chen, and her heart was very empty, but on the surface, she had a modest expression, telling Mrs. Chen in this way: Her cooking skills still need to be improved.
"By the way, Xiaofan, it's been many days since you came back with Su Yatou, and you haven't taken Su Yatou out for a spin, have you?" After lunch, Old Lady Chen suddenly remembered something and asked.
Chen Fan nodded: "Well, I haven't had time to go out yet." ”
"The weather is good today, you take advantage of the sun to take Su Yatou out for a walk, Su Yatou can buy whatever she wants, and I will ask Xiaozhu to bring my card in a while." That card was given to me by Jianguo, and I don't know how much it is, if it's not enough, you can call Jianguo. Old Lady Chen thought for a while and said.
This time, without waiting for Chen Fan to speak, Susan shook her head like a rattle: "No need, old lady, we have money on us." ”
"Yes, old lady, you don't have to worry about money." Chen Fanran and said.
When Old Lady Chen heard the two of them say this, she didn't force it, and smiled and said, "Okay, you two clean up and take advantage of the warm sun at noon, and turn around for a while." ”
Half an hour later, Chen Fan left the military compound with Susan.
Chen Fan didn't let Xiao Zhu drive the extended red flag to take him and Susan shopping as Old Lady Chen said, because ......, he knew better than anyone what the car represented.
In his opinion, if he and Susan took that car to go shopping, it was estimated that it would not take an hour to spread throughout some circles of Yanjing, causing a huge sensation!
Moreover, he knew very well that Mrs. Chen was frugal and never talked about pomp, and the reason why he made a decision that violated his principles was that he and Susan were too fond of him.
Maybe it was to get rid of the old lady Chen, or maybe it was the first time to experience the warmth and touching brought by the Chen family, Chen Fan's mood was really good, but Susan was a little depressed because the lunch meal was not made in her real sense.
"Well, wife, are you still going to the underwear store today?" Sitting on the bus, Chen Fan withdrew his gaze from the scenery on the side of the road, glanced at Susan, and couldn't help but ask when he found that Susan was not as interested as the first time he went shopping with him.
After Chen Fan's reminder, Susan couldn't help but think of the scene of entering the underwear store with Chen Fan in her mind, and a trace of crimson suddenly appeared on Fan Nèn's face, and Jiāo slammed Chen Fan with her powder fist and scolded: i, stinky bastard, if you dare to mention the events of that day again, I'm not done with you!
"Okay, I won't mention it, but wife, what are you going to buy?" Chen Fan smiled and changed the subject.
Hearing Chen Fan say this, Susan stopped beating Chen Fan, thought about it thoughtfully, and finally shook her head: "Just take a look, see what you like and buy it." ”
"Hmm." Chen Fan felt a big head for a while, as if he saw the scene of becoming a porter.
Every major city in the world has its bustling commercial streets, and Yanjing, as the imperial capital, is no exception.
Wangfujing StreetWangfujing Street, from East Chang'an Street in the south to the National Art Museum in the north, is the most famous commercial area in Yanjing. Wangfujing's daily necessities, hardware and electrical materials, clothing, shoes and hats, jewelry, diamonds, gold and silver jewelry, etc., are dazzling, and the sales of goods are extremely large, and it is known as the "daily gold fight" of the inch gold place.
Wangfujing Street now has the largest commercial building in Asia, the largest density and the largest concentration of large shopping malls, hotels and specialty stores. Wangfujing is also the nearest large-scale shopping place for domestic commercial travel agencies, and the place with the highest concentration of state-owned brands and time-honored brands. This international central commercial street, full of modern, high-grade and high-standard standards, has become a friendly sister street to the Champs-Élysées in France, making it continue to improve its international status.
Chen Fan and Susan's destination is Wangfujing Street.
The two of them entered the street from the Yanjing Hotel at the south exit and walked north, and they clearly saw the plaque hanging high, the shop was full of people, like flowing water.
Susan, who was originally sullen, was no longer depressed because Chen Fan secretly adjusted the atmosphere, on the contrary, looking at the beautiful women and handsome guys on the street, her interest suddenly rose.
Seeing this scene, Chen Fan was even more willing to accept his opinion that he wanted to be a porter, but he was happy.
Apparently he didn't want Susan to be unhappy in Yanjing.
However...... The truth was beyond Chen Fan's expectations, Susan did not spend as much money as she did when she first went shopping with Chen Fan, but only watched and did not buy.
This greatly surprised Chen Fan's expectations, after all, when Susan used to go shopping, as long as she saw something she liked, she would not consider whether she would use it when she bought it back, and paid directly.
"Wife, why don't you just look at it?" Susan's abnormality made Chen Fan somewhat curious.
Susan stopped and said with a smile: "Although I don't know how big the old lady's former official position was, but being able to live in the innermost compound of the Yanjing Military Region is definitely not small. The old lady is such a big official, but he lives so simply, he must be a thrifty person. And I am now half of the Chen family, so I naturally want to carry forward the glorious tradition of the old lady. ”
Stunned to hear Susan say such a thing, Chen Fan had a dumbfounded expression!
And Susan smiled and took Chen Fan's arm: "Idiot, let's go, follow me to the jewelry store to have a look." ”
After that, Susan didn't wait for Chen Fan to reply, and directly pulled Chen Fan into a splendid jewelry store.
The jewelry store is divided into two floors, and the hall on the first floor is filled with dozens of display cases filled with colorful jewelry. The hall was overcrowded, mostly young men and women, and the waiters were tall and smiling, and their service attitude was top-notch.
"Hello sir, the first floor of our store is for mass jewelry, and the second floor is for the elite." Not long after Chen Fan and Susan stepped into the jewelry store, the manager of the hall on the first floor greeted them directly, and Yu Guang removed the watch from Chen Fan's wrist, smiled and said, "I think if you want to buy a gift for your girlfriend, the second floor is the best place." And, we've got a pair of very precious and beautiful agate drop earrings from Middle Eastern royalty, and if you're interested, I can show you there. ”
"Okay, thanks for the reminder." Chen Fan responded with a smile, but did not immediately take Susan to the second floor, but walked around the first floor before going up to the second floor.
The hall manager on the first floor wanted to accompany the two of them, but ............ noticed that Chen Fan didn't seem to like her very much, so he didn't bother himself.
At the same time as the two of them went up to the second floor, Fan Xian, a young man of the Fan family in an Armani suit, walked into the jewelry store with a tall woman who looked like a man.
"Young Master Fan, thank you for patronizing our store, your arrival will definitely make our store shine." The moment Fan Xian stepped into the jewelry store, the welcome lady at the door bowed 90 degrees to say hello.
Fan Xian didn't look at the welcome lady, but smiled and said to the girl next to him: "Xiaoying, I heard that this store got a pair of agate earrings, which were obtained from the Middle Eastern royal family, and they are worth a lot of money, let's go and have a look?" ”
Middle Eastern royalty?
Hearing Fan Xian's words, the girl's eyes lit up and said, "Okay! ”
Subsequently, the two of them, accompanied by the hall manager on the first floor, slowly went up to the second floor with their heads tilted and with an unstoppable arrogance.
Compared to the first floor, the second floor has much fewer customers and less jewelry.
Although there are few jewels, the total value is not less than that of the hall on the first floor, on the contrary, it is much higher.
Similarly, the combined value of those guests on the second floor is far greater than that of ordinary guests in the lobby on the first floor.
"Fan Shao, I really didn't expect to meet you here."
As soon as Fan Xian arrived on the second floor, a gentleman greeted him with a smile.
As soon as the gentleman's words came out, he immediately attracted the attention of some of the surrounding guests, many of whom knew Fan Xian, and they stepped forward one after another.
In the face of all this, Fan Xian always tilted his head and looked at the person next to him with a kind of looking down, and the superiority in his eyes could not be concealed at all.
Beside him, the girl named Xiaoying, listening to the well-dressed and extraordinary people around her, talked to Fan Xian in a flattering tone, and secretly felt that being able to be with Fan Xian was the greatest gift to her!
Because...... Although her family has a good status in the capital, it is not at the same level at all compared to the Fan family.
Then, when those gentlemen said goodbye together, Fan Xian's eyes suddenly fell on the display cabinet in the center on the second floor.
To be precise, the eyes fell on Susan, who was standing in front of the display case.
He could clearly see that Susan was holding a bunch of turquoise sè agate earrings and talking to the staff of the jewelry store.
"Hey, it's like stepping through the iron shoes and finding nowhere to go, so it doesn't take any effort to get there."
Fan Xian sneered in his heart, a joking glint flashed in his eyes, and he walked directly towards Susan!
