Chapter 190, what the aunt said
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward, and even felt a little cold, Yu Xue suddenly didn't know what to do, because her mother didn't like Canglong, so it wasn't that she didn't think Canglong was capable, but because what Canglong did, there would always be some women involved behind it, so it was natural to be considered to eat soft rice.
"Hello, aunt." Canglong's tone was calm, he still understood the etiquette, as for why he appeared in Secretary Yu's house, it was naturally because of Yu Xue's relationship, he was the first time he came to see his mother-in-law so formally.
He was humble, not because he was afraid of Secretary Yu, on the contrary, Canglong felt that no matter what, as a man, he had to think about his woman no matter what, although Yu Xue and her mother were not in harmony, but as a daughter, Yu Xue still hoped that she could get her mother's blessing on the day she got married.
Because of this, Yu Xue said that let Canglong come to his mother's house for dinner, just to resolve some of the estrangement between Canglong and his mother, before coming, Yu Xue and Canglong explained a lot of things, hoping that Canglong can get along with his mother, although Canglong agreed, but he felt that the person who should really get along with Secretary Yu seems to be Yu Xue.
He never knew what kind of contradiction existed between Yu Xue and Secretary Yu, they didn't look like mother and daughter together at all, and as Yu Xue's possible husband in the future, he had the responsibility to let his mother-in-law and her daughter get along in harmony.
Canglong was very humble and held the gift of the juniors, but Secretary Yu didn't know if he was stunned and didn't want to have too many words with Canglong, so he kept standing in place and didn't move.
When Wen Haichen came out to play a round and said, "Young and promising." ”
"Vice Mayor Wen has won the award." Canglong nodded, but his eyes did not leave Secretary Yu, but at this moment, there was no intention of fighting, just the humility that a junior should have towards his elders.
But Secretary Yu was still motionless, looking at Yu Xue with a cold face, as if to say, you Yu Xue, you dare to do such a prelude to you.
Yu Xue seemed to understand the meaning of her mother's gaze, and her originally smiling face suddenly became calm and cold, but at this moment she never expected that her mother suddenly changed the cold color on her face, showed a warm smile, walked over and held Canglong's hand and said, "It's not the first time we've met, young man." ”
"Yes." Canglong nodded calmly, but Hei Man, who was watching this scene, was stunned, and said in his heart that this trembling shadow assassin would actually have a scene of ordinary people.
"Who is this?" Secretary Yu looked at Hei Man with a smile.
"This is Canglong's sister, who just came from abroad." Yu Xue hurriedly walked over, "Mom, you're tired for a day, sit down and rest, Uncle Wen, you sit too, I'll make you tea." ”
Saying that, Yu Xue went to make tea, but as soon as she left, the atmosphere in the living room was cold, Secretary Yu stared at Canglong, as if to say, what kind of fame are you kid, you dare to come to my house.
And Canglong also looked at Secretary Yu without showing weakness, but his eyes were not as cold as before, but full of softness and humility, as if to say, I am just here to match the relationship between your mother and daughter, aunt, don't think about it.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Vice Mayor Wen hurriedly came out to play a round and said, "Teacher Xiaocang, I heard that next semester, you will no longer teach in No. 1 Middle School, do you have any plans?" ”
"Ready to do some business." Canglong smiled, "China's market prospects are considerable, and I believe there is a place for me here." ”
Saying that, Canglong looked at Secretary Yu, but found that the other party did not speak, and after a while, Yu Xue made tea and walked out, seeing that there was no scene he imagined, he seemed to be relieved, and then went to the kitchen.
"Young people don't want to be ambitious." Secretary Yu said lightly, "I heard that your parents are celebrities among overseas Chinese in France, I don't know if there is such a thing." ”
"Not a celebrity." Canglong said calmly, "It's just a false name given by the outside world." ”
"Oh." Secretary Yu took a sip of the tea in his hand gently, "Being a man, just like this tea, the water used should not be hot, otherwise it will lose the original taste of the tea, and it cannot be tepid, otherwise there is no elegant tea fragrance, just right, and it is good tea if you feel the heat." ”
Canglong nodded, naturally understanding the meaning of Secretary Yu's words, although it was obvious that he was teaching him a lesson, but Canglong didn't take it to heart, but said calmly: "What Uncle said is true." ”
So, no matter how difficult Secretary Yu was, Canglong said "What Aunt said is"
It was not only Hei Man who was surprised, but also Secretary Yu and Wen Haichen, who said in their hearts that Canglong had changed his personality and couldn't do it, and he was still tepid under such difficulties.
"Aunt and uncle will talk first, and I'll go to the kitchen to help Xiaoxue." Canglong is still the same calm, and his tone is still the humility of the younger generation to the elders.
"Wait." But at this moment, Secretary Yu couldn't hold back, "Just let Xue'er do those things alone, there is a saying in Confucianism, a gentleman cooks far away, and a man does some kitchen work in his daughter's house, how else can he do big things?" ”
"Taoist Lao Tzu has a saying that governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh." Canglong suddenly froze, turned around, and looked at Secretary Yu.
Wen Haichen immediately felt that the atmosphere was wrong, it seemed that Canglong couldn't help but go crazy, but he also admired Canglong's temperament just now, he was so troubled, it was all tepid, but unfortunately, why couldn't he help it all of a sudden? If it really goes on like that, maybe Secretary Yu will be able to make things worse even if he is like a troublemaker.
"I'm still young after all." Wen Haichen sighed in his heart.
"Men should be self-reliant, hide behind women, do women's things, and how to govern a big country, I think this is just some incompetent excuses." Secretary Yu's tone became more and more stern and mean, and at this moment she completely lost the demeanor of the secretary of the municipal party committee, and was more like a mother-in-law who made things difficult for her son-in-law.
"Huh." Canglong was not angry, but said, "The gentleman is far away from cooking, not to keep men away from the kitchen, on the contrary, this is the heart of the Confucian sage Mencius, the kitchen is a place of killing, whether it is chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep, they are all one of the creatures, but they can't bear to kill, so Mencius said that the gentleman is far away from cooking, and it is not what later generations think, the gentleman cannot cook, and the kitchen is incompetent." ”
When Canglong finished speaking, the atmosphere in the whole living room suddenly cooled down again, although Canglong's tone was calm, although he did not name his name in his words, but in the ears of Secretary Yu, it seemed to say that she was ignorant, and even like most people, she distorted the meaning of the ancients.
"Isn't the man who hides behind a woman incompetent?" Secretary Yu's face was cold, revealing the majesty of a superior person.
But Canglong still shook his head calmly: "Zhou Yi Youyun, Tianxingjian, the gentleman is self-improving, the terrain is kun, the gentleman is virtuous, and he uses more popular words to explain, that is, he who has achieved great things, and he is not informal, how can he say that he is incompetent?" ”
Secretary Yu's face became more and more difficult to see, the meaning of Canglong's words is to say that the person who distorts the facts does not seem to be him, but Secretary Yu himself, only incompetent people will distort the words of the ancients for themselves, and use the reputation of the ancients to enhance their persuasiveness and find some excuses for themselves.
Wen Haichen had to admit that Canglong fought back very skillfully, but it was really irrational to say such a thing when facing his mother-in-law.
And Hei Man was at a loss on the side, because she didn't know what the two were muttering here, but she could see that Canglong was no longer there to let this woman start to fight back.
Seeing that the atmosphere was getting colder and colder, Secretary Yu suddenly smiled: "It is worthy of being a doctor from the Department of Chinese History of the Higher Normal College in Paris, not bad, very good." ”
The meaning of Secretary Yu's words is very simple, you are just a mediocre person who can only play tricks, let's see, anyway, I will never agree to you and my daughter being together.
It's just that Canglong changed his tone just now, and said in a humble tone: "What Aunt said is true." ”
Canglong went to the kitchen by himself, but when he arrived in the kitchen, he saw Yu Xue holding a kitchen knife, using the reflection to illuminate her face, with a serious look, as if she was going to kill someone, it was obvious that she heard what she had just said.
"You've been wronged." Yu Xue suddenly put down the kitchen knife, "I knew she would be like this." ”
"It turns out that using soft ones doesn't work on your mother, so you have to use my methods." Canglong said in a calm tone.
"What do you want to do?" Yu Xue suddenly looked worried, "Don't mess around, after all, she is my mother." ”
"How so?" Canglong smiled, "If I really didn't care that she was your mother, I wouldn't have agreed to you coming here." ”
"Then what do you want to do, tell me quickly." Yu Xue was still worried, after all, everything Canglong did, although it was not earth-shattering, it was enough to make people break out in a cold sweat, not to mention that this time he was not dealing with someone else, but her mother.
"Nope." Canglong shook his head resolutely, but raised a hand and said, "But I can assure you that this matter will definitely not hurt Auntie." ”
"Really?" Yu Xue was holding a kitchen knife, which was very scary.
Canglong shrugged: "If you hurt her, you can use a kitchen knife to chop me, provided that you are willing." ”
"Nasty." Yu Xue glanced at him angrily, and suddenly became serious, "I don't want me to go to the point of my mother and father with you, I don't know why she divorced her father, why her father has such a good temper, but she has to make things difficult in every way, and finally her father had to move abroad, so she gave up." ”
Hearing this, Canglong took Yu Xue into his arms, and he seemed to understand something, but he didn't speak
