Chapter 4 Blind Date
Zhang Lie appeared at the station early in the morning. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info Xiao Mingyi returned to China today, and he took the initiative to ask to pick him up. For this reason, I also deliberately shaved my beard.
Wave after wave of people have been received, and Zhang Lie has not seen Xiao Mingyi yet. He was impatient to wait, and planned to go to the stationmaster to ask about the situation. At this moment, Xiao Mingyi came out, yes, he was the last to come out.
Xiao Mingyi is taller, his eyebrows and eyes are a little more stable, and his hairstyle is different from before, combing his hair like a foreigner. He dragged four or five large boxes to the door. Zhang Lie stretched out his arms to greet him, and said with a smile: "Welcome back, Master Xiao"
I finally put the box in the car.
"Mingyi, the master told me to go home early, so let's not delay any longer"
"Ah Lie, I'll come back on the first day today, and call our brothers to get together."
"But the master specially told you to go back early, it seems that there should be something very important."
"It doesn't matter, it's just to give me a blind date."
Long before Mingyi returned to China, he received a call from Hongsheng, who said that his father was going to tell him a kiss on the day he came back, so that he could make plans early.
Good boy, it seems that Hongsheng is still looking for him as a brother.
Mingyi didn't know how to refuse Master Xiao, so he simply excused himself and didn't go home.
"Mingyi, in fact, everyone misses you. Everyone is waiting in the restaurant, wanting to wait for you to come home before coming out. Then we might as well go now. Zhang Lie turned the car around.
Mingyi took out a pack of cigarettes and handed it to Zhang Lie, "Taste it, authentic foreign goods." ”
"Mingyi, tell me what it's like to be abroad."
"That's going to be talked about, but I can't finish it for three days and three nights."
"You kid has been drinking foreign ink for a few years, and he looks down on people"
"No," Mingyi looked at the buildings on the road and smiled heartily, "It's good to be back." ”
At this time, the Xiao family had already prepared the family banquet.
It is not only a banquet for the eldest young master but also a banquet for the eldest young master's blind date, and the servants are all ready with all their might.
Chunya prepared a favorite snack for the eldest young master early, and the rose filling was made of roses from her own garden, smelling fragrant and sweet. Every time he does a good job, the eldest young master is full of praise.
Although Mingyi was estranged from Master Xiao and his second wife, he got along very well with the servants at home. Because he was most relaxed with the servants, he said whatever he wanted. Talk, laugh and have fun with them often. He can paint, and once painted portraits of the girls in the house. Therefore, after a long time, the servants in the family treated him as their own and worked hardest for him.
Gu Qiao methodically commanded the servants to be busy, and he was not idle, washing the fruits and teacups over and over again.
Since Xiao Mingyi went abroad, Gu Qiao has moved into the Xiao Mansion.
She was originally Master Xiao's secretary. Soon after the eldest lady died, Master Xiao accepted her as a second room. Because Hongsheng refused to recognize the position of the second wife, and couldn't stand his father's eagerness to take a concubine, he didn't allow her to live in Xiaofu. It wasn't until two years ago that Gu Qiao moved in on the pretext of taking care of Master Xiao. Although Hongsheng had no opinion on the surface, he had a cold attitude towards Gu Qiao and didn't even say a few words.
Regarding Hongsheng's attitude, Gu Qiao didn't say much, and he didn't care. She will prepare red envelopes, give gifts, and buy clothes for Hongsheng during the New Year's holidays, and the number of gifts has always been a lot, and the home is also well organized. Therefore, the past two years have been peaceful in the Xiao family.
There was a happy event at home, Gu Qiao prepared a suit for Master Xiao, and picked out a jujube red cheongsam, which was beautiful but unassuming, and looked very decent.
"Master, the people of the Yao family have arrived"
"Come on"
Yao Qijun didn't know how to describe his mood, and things were too smooth, so smooth that people couldn't believe it. She was afraid that something would go wrong in a while.
The Shaw Mansion is a large white European-style building. There are all kinds of flowers blooming on both sides of the road in the yard, there are many varieties of flowers, but the color matching is not messy, it can be seen that the owner of the yard must be tasteful. The furnishings in the living room are also mostly white, clean and bright.
Qi Jun had a straight back, sat lightly on the sofa, and elegantly picked up the cup. Gu Qiao picked up the fruit with a fork, handed it to Qi Jun, and looked at Qi Jun carefully. No wonder Master Xiao can see it, he looks slim, smart and lovely, and his dark eyes make people's hearts melt. The gestures are elegant and generous. Who wouldn't like such a girl.
Hongsheng also secretly sighed at Qi Jun's beauty on the side, and he regretted reporting to Mingyi a little, whether he would cause Mingyi to miss a good marriage. It's useless to regret it, Mingyi will definitely not go home at noon.
It's late, and Mingyi hasn't come back yet.
Master Xiao couldn't sit still and was about to send someone to the station to check the situation.
Hongsheng seemed to remember something: "Father, I talked to my brother on the phone a few days ago, and my brother seemed to say that he wanted to get together with his friends first when he came back, but I forgot about it." He also asked me to relay it to you. ”
Qi Jun's heart chuckled, and sure enough, something went wrong.
This is the collusion between Hongsheng and Mingyi. Since you don't know how to refuse your father, it's better to simply offend the woman. This no-show, the woman must be angry, so even if the parents of both parties have the will, there is no way to remedy it.
Master Xiao didn't know the reason, firstly, he thought that Mingyi would definitely go home first when he returned to China, and secondly, he also wanted Mingyi to contact Qi Jun without knowing it, and the atmosphere might be more natural, so he didn't tell Mingyi about this matter. I never thought that there would be a mistake in the middle.
Yao's father and Yao's mother's face sank, no matter what, their daughter was hanging here, which was obviously Xiao Mingyi's distraction. Although Master Xiao kept criticizing Mingyi and apologizing to Yao's father and Yao's mother, they no longer planned to talk about this family business.
Although Qi Jun felt that Mingyi was deliberately hiding from this, she was still a little unwilling in her heart. Maybe it's really not a good communication.
"Since Ling Gongzi has something to do today, then we won't stay longer," Master Yao said, and he got up and was about to leave.
"These gifts Brother Xiao left behind, which can be regarded as a celebration of Mingyi's successful graduation and return from studying abroad" It was obviously a meeting gift for the two parents' families, so they had to change their names.
"Master Yao, madam. We were originally a family banquet this time, Mingyi had bad habits abroad, and he said that he would have a party when he returned to China. We don't understand young people these days. Leave him alone, our family feast will continue. Gu Qiao's words did not leak, indicating that this meal was not a kiss, which relieved the embarrassment of the Yao family. It doesn't hurt to say that Mingyi didn't come back because he was deliberately hiding, but because of "bad habits" abroad, not because of character problems.
Indeed, although the two old people know it, after all, they are gathered together from the origin of the family banquet, so it is not wrong.
Yao's mother didn't listen to Gu Qiao's words very well, she was only twelve years older than Mingyi, what did she say about young people.
"Yes, Mom and Dad. Since Uncle Xiao has set up a banquet to entertain us, we can't live up to the wishes of others," Qi Jun said with a smile. Although she was also angry, she made up her mind that no matter whether Xiao Mingyi did it on purpose or not, she would ask in person, and she was willing to believe him before that.
Hongsheng felt incredible, Qi Jun didn't look angry at all, how could this be. The blind date was released by the pigeon, and he could still laugh. She wasn't stupid enough to believe that his brother really didn't know. If it weren't stupid, then Hongsheng would have to secretly sweat for Mingyi, this must be a difficult master!
After catching up with Zhang Lie, He Zijian and other brothers in the gang until the evening, Xiao Mingyi finally went home. The family basically fell asleep, and Xiao Mingyi came to the kitchen. He knew that Chunya must be waiting for him in the kitchen.
Sure enough, Chunya was lying on the stove and was already asleep, next to the pastry made for him. He picked up a piece and ate it, and abroad, he missed the taste. Chunya woke up and looked at him with sleepy eyes: "The eldest young master is back!" ”
When Chunya was twelve years old, her father fell ill, and her mother sold her into the Xiao Mansion. She's been here for five years. When I first arrived, I was depressed all day. may also be under the fence, Mingyi takes care of her very much. Fortunately, she is a smart and diligent girl, she can learn as soon as she learns, she understands when she speaks, she has practiced good cooking skills in a few years, and she is quiet and does not talk much, and does not talk about right and wrong behind her back. The Xiao family is very good to her, and she is also very grateful.
"Big young master, you must have suffered a lot outside, look at you have lost weight" Chunya is really distressed young master.
"Haha, this is not called thin, it is called strong. I worked out abroad and I looked thinner but actually gained muscle and strength."
"This is all nonsense of foreign devils, only when you are fat can you have strength to look good, and when you are thin, you are hard. Otherwise, why do rich families have to hire people to do the work? If they do a good job, they must have done their own work. "Chunya will become sharp and sharp in front of him.
Mingyi couldn't help but smile. Although it is a crooked reason, what she said is not wrong.
A lot of things, that's the case. Each has its own reasons for not being able to argue, and if they argue, they can't win.
He brought back chocolate candy for Chunya and asked her to share it with the other servants, and Chunya happily took the candy to the room and distributed it to the others. As soon as people heard that the eldest young master was in the kitchen, they were completely sleepy, and they all ran to the kitchen to see him.
Mingyi told them about strange things abroad, and a group of people listened to the story until late at night, when their eyelids were about to close before they went back to sleep.
Mingyi came to the second floor, thinking that Hongsheng had already slept, but saw a ray of light coming out of his room.
"Brother, you're back." Hongsheng lowered his voice and gave Mingyi a big hug.
"It's been a long time since I've grown so tall!"
As he spoke, Mingyi handed the box in his hand to Hongsheng. Inside is the latest camera, which is not available in China.
"Wow! Brother, this is amazing! Thank you. ”
"I should thank you. What happened at noon? You didn't say anything, did you? ”
"Of course! Everything is in our plans. Just ....."
Hongsheng didn't know how to describe it to Mingyi. In his opinion, Qi Jun is very smart, and he should be able to understand what Xiao Mingyi's approach means. But instead of being angry, she persuaded her parents. It doesn't look like a girl on a blind date, but like Mingyi's wife, she eats Mingyi.
She didn't get angry, and politely ate and left. Why am I embarrassed? Hongsheng said suspiciously.
Mingyi doesn't understand either, but it's really rare to see such a generous girl. On the contrary, it seems that Xiao Mingyi is stingy and not responsible. It seems that this matter is not so easy to solve. He should have made a special trip to apologize to the girl.
"Brother, actually, why don't you try to date her. I think she's pretty good. In fashionable parlance, it's a lady. Hongsheng persuaded Mingyi, but Mingyi had no expression on his face.
"You go to sleep." Mingyi didn't say anything, and went out to his bedroom.
Really a little tired, he lay on the bed without undressing, and took out a photo of a woman from the pocket of his shirt.
The woman in the photo has long hair, standing under a tree, smiling like a flower.
He could hear her laughing, hear her calling her name.
"Moyi," Mingyi muttered, "I miss you." ”
