Chapter 578: Angel

When Chen Guan and the old man of the Bai family were talking, Angel, who had finished the call, ran over and said that the phone was all connected, and the grandfathers and uncles all said that they had rushed back to eat together, and she had to go to the street to buy and prepare meals now.

The bright and moving Angel saw the joy of the old man from his grandfather's face, and he was also excited, his eyes were full of smiles when he spoke, and his eyes became extremely friendly when he looked at Chen Guan.

The Bai family is a big family of four generations, they are prosperous, and they all settle in New York, and when they come back to eat together, they have to purchase a lot of ingredients. Therefore, Angel told her grandfather that she had to ask Chen Guan to accompany her to go shopping, help with things, and ask her grandfather to sit quietly in the courtyard and bask in the sun, waiting for them for a while.

Bai Derong is old, his children and grandchildren are usually busy, it is rare to have a chat partner, when he heard that Angel was going to take Chen Guan away, he was a little reluctant, but he was old and not confused, and he felt more sorry for his granddaughter, so he sat down on a chair in the shade by the pool again, and waved Chen Guan to go grocery shopping with Angel.

Chen Guan was a guest visiting for the first time, and Angel and the old man of the Bai family actually asked him to help him go to the street to buy vegetables! It seems that when Chen Guan called his beloved niece Bai Xueweiss grandma, the old man of the Bai family regarded Chen Guan as a nephew. Otherwise, with his experience and education, it would be impossible for Chen Guan to follow Angel to buy vegetables.

The service system of the metropolis is very perfect, and the supermarket that Angel wants to go to is not far away, so he doesn't need to drive, and he leads Chen Guan out of the house.

Sixteen or seventeen-year-old girls have a lively nature. But after all, I am not familiar with Chen Guan, at the beginning, Angel showed the shyness and reserve unique to the flower girl, deliberately ignored Chen Guan, walked with his head high, and his chest was quite high, and when he met a dog walking on the side of the road, he also ran over to squat down and play with the puppy, but when he saw Chen Guan's eyes looking at her, his eyes drooped, and he was as shy as a summer water lotus.

Chen watched it funny, and felt that this Angel was pure and natural, and very cute, so he deliberately teased her: "Angel, what is on your back?" ”

Saying this, Angell's footsteps stopped, turned his head to look at his back, but unfortunately his eyes couldn't see his back, so he had to touch it with his hands behind his back, and he didn't touch anything for a long time, so he asked Chen Guan: "Did you drop something dirty?" ”

Chen Guan shook his head and said seriously: "It's not dirty, it's two white wings!" ”

Angel immediately understood that Chen Guan was making fun of her with her name, and immediately hit back: "You also have something on your buttocks, it's a big fluffy tail!" ”

This is to say that Chen Guan is a big-tailed wolf and a wolf grandmother!

Chen Guan laughed.

At this moment, the distance between the two people was shortened, and Ingres opened the conversation, chattering non-stop, sometimes in English, sometimes in Chinese, and constantly asking questions.

Ingres is a native Chinese-American, who has never been to China, and his knowledge of China comes from the teachings of his elders and the propaganda on television and books. Therefore, while driving, Angels asked Chen Guan how big China is, whether it is really 9.6 million square kilometers; How many people does China have, whether it is 1.1 billion or 1.2 billion; The Great Wall of Beijing is the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty, so where the Great Wall built by Qin Shi Huang is, was it really collapsed by Meng Jiangnu's crying; Is China's family planning policy true, and is it true that a couple can only have one child? What if I have a superbirth, is it really forced to have an abortion? Is China, like the former Soviet Union, starving its common people, but using military force to develop nuclear weapons, threatening world peace and security? I heard that Chinese students go to school very hard, schoolbags are the heaviest in the world, and academic results have to be announced, ranking second, is it true? And so on and so forth.

Angel had too many questions, and Chen Guan had to answer them one by one, and the two of them walked and talked, but they were not lonely.

This is the Upper East Side, where New York's wealthy live with the highest concentration, and the supermarket is naturally full of goods. Chen Guan pushed the shopping cart and followed Angel as a waiter.

Chen Guan couldn't help but ask Angel, her family lives in such a big villa, and Old Man Bai is so old, why didn't the family hire a service staff?

Angel replied that Grandpa Tai had already made a rule that the Bai family could not hire servants. Don't look at grandpa Tai's age, impaired mobility, and usually doesn't need to be taken care of by others. It was only in the past year that the old man's body had weakened sharply, and his children and nephews were allowed to take turns guarding him. In the past two days, she happened to have a weekend, so she came to accompany her grandfather, cook for her grandfather, and talk to the elderly.

As soon as Chen Guan heard this, he knew that Bai Derong adhered to the Bai family style of cultivating and reading heirlooms and poetry heirlooms, and learned the lessons of Bai Deli's father and son to avoid the children from repeating the mistakes of arrogance and lasciviousness.

Angel bought all the ingredients for Western food, steak, beef, carrots, etc., and filled a small cart to the brim.

On the way back, Chen Guan acted as a coolie, carrying dozens of catties of vegetables, steaks, and beef in both hands. Ingres walked in front of him empty-handed, turning around from time to time and calling Chen Guan's name in slightly stiff Chinese, calling a big bad wolf, to promote more narrowness and narrowness, just like teasing a puppy.

Chen Guan was a little breathless by Angel, so he asked Anger if he had a Chinese name.

Angel's beautiful eyes twitched into Chen Guan's face, and he asked vigilantly, "Big bad wolf, what are you doing?" ”

Chen Guan said that he didn't want to do anything, he just wanted to ask, did he recognize his fellow countrymen!

Angel said, "Don't tell you," and turned his head to walk on his own.

After a while, Angel couldn't hold back, so he turned around and told Chen Guan that her Chinese name is Bai Yun, the white of the old Bai family, the rhyme of the charm, born in 1980, 16 years old this year, is in high school, should go to college next year, and wants to go to Columbia University Business School.

A 16-year-old girl has grown into a height of 170, and she is so beautiful, no wonder her English name is Angels.

Looking at Ingres, who had a bright face and a bright face, Chen Guan could imagine that this girl would definitely finish her undergraduate and master's degree in the future, and she would be a Wall Street elite.

Chen Guan lamented that Angel should not go to business school, but should go to New York University's Tisch School of Art, and become a Hollywood star in the future and become popular all over the world. Otherwise, it's a pity that God has given the angel face and devil figure.

Angel laughed when he heard it, saying that Chen Guan was really funny, and he couldn't imagine that people in the deep ravine also knew Hollywood stars. She didn't go to art school, and she wouldn't be a Hollywood star. Grandpa Tai said that the most important thing for people is their brains, brains full of knowledge and wisdom, not beautiful faces.

Seeing that Angel deliberately pretended to be old when he spoke, Chen Guan laughed out loud with a "poof".

Chen Guan smiled, and Angel also smiled embarrassedly.

After laughing, Angel whispered to Chen Guan that in fact, what she wanted most was not a Hollywood star, but a financial predator on Wall Street.

Chen Guan was stunned when he heard this, and felt that this old Bai family might really be a problem with the old tomb's qi vein, and the daughters born and raised were all arrogant masters. The eldest lady and the second miss of the Bai family were like that back then, and the sisters Bai Aixiao and Bai Aiyue were not bad, but they were all confined to the remote Wulongyu, and their knowledge could not be compared with Angell in Manhattan, and their thoughts in their hearts could not be compared. The eldest lady and the second miss of the Bai family, and the sisters Bai Aixiao and Bai Aiyue are all pursuing to change their own destiny, but what Angel wants is to pry the earth!

This little girl really dares to think, amazing!

Seeing that Chen Guan didn't speak, Angel shyly told Chen Guan not to tell others, she was just an idea, a dream, and she had to work hard. Nothing without effort!

Chen nodded and told Angel that all ideals can only be achieved by hard work, and it is true that there is nothing without hard work!

Angel was happy, as if she had met a bosom friend, she talked more, and introduced Chen Guan to the five brothers and sisters of her grandfather's generation. Her grandfather is the eldest, and his Chinese name is in alphabetical order on the Bai family tree, called Bai Wencai, who is 65 years old this year, works at the headquarters of JPMorgan Chase on Wall Street, and is about to retire; The second grandfather's name is Bai Wenhua, 62 years old, is a university professor who is engaged in research at the Courant Institute of Mathematics at New York University; The third grandfather's name is Bai Wenqian, 59 years old, is a cardiovascular specialist at Columbia University Hospital; The eldest aunt's name is Bai Wenxiu, 56 years old, who also works for the DuPont consortium on Wall Street; The youngest is Bai Wenli, 53 years old, and works at the Federal Reserve Bank.

Chen Guan used to only know that Bai Derong's five children were all doctors from prestigious American universities and all worked in New York, but this time he heard it clearly, Bai Derong's five children are all successful talents, and the units they work for are all enviable well-known financial companies or academic institutions. I can't imagine that in the remote Wulongyu Village, there are such outstanding sons and daughters doing such an excellent job in New York, the world's financial center, commercial center, cultural center, and media center!

Chen Guan suddenly thought that the starting point determines the size of a person's development space, and if he has a child in the future, he must also think of ways to send his child to a world-famous school, and he can't let the child lose at the starting line!

Chen Guan even thought that his grandfather, master, old man, and ancestors had been working for the big landlords of the Bai family for generations, and they had always been fighting against fate. What Bai Derong can do, he must also do. Bai Derong's children are all doctors from famous American universities, and his children from Chen Guan must also be doctors from famous American universities in the future, and they must be more promising!

This Chen Guan is really a young man's heart, the innocent Angel just introduced him to the basic situation of his elders, the purpose is not to show off, but to let him understand, easy to recognize everyone when eating, I didn't expect it to make him compare!

What Bai Derong can do, Chen Guan may not be able to do. Not to mention anything else, Bai Derong's five children have given birth to a big family of four generations in the same house, can he Chen Guan do it? China implements a family planning policy, and Chen Guan will not be able to have five children in any case, unless he gets married, divorced, and marries several more times, otherwise, he and Yutai Mingyue will have two children, not to mention having five children, even if they have a second child, they will all face the danger of being dismissed from public office for violating the family planning policy. Is he willing to have a promising career? Do you want to give up your political ambitions?

Chen Guan, it's really a bit naïve!

After thinking about it for a while, Chen Guan laughed in his heart, where is this, how can he faint like this, and compare himself with the old man of the Bai family?

One thing made Chen Guan very strange, it seemed that the age difference between the five children of the old man of the Bai family was three years, and they were neatly arranged, which sounded like they had been planned.

Angel didn't know what Chen Guan was thinking, and introduced that her grandfather and aunt had two or three children in each family, and now they have all grown up. Her father's name is Bai Shouyong, 40 years old this year, the eldest of his cousins, the eldest grandson of his grandfather, the most loved by his grandfather, and works for the New York Stock Exchange; Her mother's name was Avril. Roland, originally a fashion model in Paris, France, met her father while performing in the United States, fell in love, and later immigrated to the United States, and now has opened a fashion store on the Upper East Side and turned to a fashion designer.

Chen Guan immediately understood why Angel has such a good figure and looks so beautiful, it turns out that he has a mother who is a model!

The naïve Angel is scheming, he says everything, and regards Chen Guan as a relative or a friend who talks about everything.

For as long as she can remember, Ingres said, her grandfather has been living at home, reading newspapers, television, pruning and pruning trees in the yard, rarely going out and moving, and rarely visiting, as if he has never been in a particularly good mood. Only when someone has a child, grandpa will be happy. Today is an exception, as soon as Chen Guan came, he actually made his grandfather's mood better, and he had to gather the whole family for dinner, which was too rare!

Chen Guan thought to himself, Bai Derong must not be in a good mood, he is full of knowledge, but he can only drift in the United States, the eldest brother and father and son were suppressed again, and the two nieces sacrificed and committed suicide, thinking about it is a tragedy, can you be in a good mood?

Angel asked Chen Guan if he heard that the Bai family had a very large courtyard in Wulongyu, which was confiscated and confiscated when China carried out land reform, is it true? Why?

Chen Guan replied that it was true, the Bai family compound is unique in Quanmingshui County and in the entire Wulong Mountain District, and has now become one of the main attractions of the Wulongyu Tourist Scenic Area. As for why the Bai family compound was confiscated and confiscated, this matter is both complicated and simple, and it will become clear when Angel goes to university and studies what the Chinese revolution is.

Angel deliberately asked Chen Guan, she is sixteen years old, she must have heard Bai Derong talk about her past and the past of the Bai family, she must know what land reform and revolution are, otherwise she would not have asked like this.

Ingres said that it was fortunate that there was no revolution in the United States, otherwise, most of the homes on the Upper East Side would have been revolutionized and their property would have been looted.

As he said this, Ingres raised his hand and made a cross on his chest, and whispered, "My God, forgive your poor child!" ”

Chen Guan didn't smile, stopped talking, and followed Angel back to the Bai family's villa!
