Chapter 319: Sense of Presence
Sure enough, although Ye Nan and Cai Qinghe, who were robbed of a sentence by Cai Xiang, both had a trace of unhappiness on their faces, they soon returned to normal.
"Not to mention, this dress fits quite well, and our mother is wearing it just right." Li Yunru said on the side.
She also played a round for Cai Xiang, and in private she persuaded Cai Xiang a lot, worried that Cai Xiang would speak too straight and easily offend people.
"Mei Lan, didn't you buy anything for all of us this time?" Zhao Jian diverted the conversation.
He remembered that the last time Mei Lan gave a gift, everyone had a share.
Of course, he didn't care about this, but wanted to tease Mei Lan, and if he couldn't bully Cai Yan, he could only bully Mei Lan.
"Yes, one scarf per person, it's the New Year, what it means, don't dislike it."
Mei Lan adhered to the principle of courtesy and many people are not to blame, and bought a scarf for the Cai family, all of which were Burberry's.
"Brother, don't pretend to be fine, our generation is your biggest and richest, you don't say anything to buy something for everyone during the Chinese New Year, but ask Mei Lan for a gift, and you don't blush?" Cai Yan continued to sarcastically say to Zhao Jian.
"Don't worry, I'll wrap a big red envelope for everyone during the Chinese New Year this year." Zhao Jian smiled, not annoyed.
"You're also a low-tempered person, and if you don't say a few words of bullshit from your sister one day, you'll be uncomfortable." Cai Qinghe said to his son with a smile.
"It's the same with you, don't know to bully your brother all day long, you said that you are in your thirties, and you don't have a proper line." Li Yunru also slapped Cai Yan twice.
"Mom, there's a ruby ring here, you can try it, and I'll change it if it's bigger." The ring in Fang Zhe's hand was not given out for a long time, and when he saw Cai Qinghe and Li Yunru, there was a bit of gunpowder in his words, and he quickly grabbed the topic.
"It's different for Xiaozhe to have a daughter-in-law, and he knows that he is worried about our mother." Cai Qinghe glanced at the ring that Fang Zhe took out, and turned to Fang Zhe with a smile.
The smell of gunpowder seems to have intensified.
Mei Lan also smiled, she saw that Cai Qinghe should be more disappointed in her heart, it is estimated that Mei Lan stole Zhao Jian's limelight, listen to the meaning of their words, Zhao Jian used to be the richest in this family, and he must have given gifts to everyone, but suddenly an inconspicuous Mei Lan got married, and he had already given everyone two gifts before the official wedding, looking at everyone's happy appearance with gifts, Cai Qinghe was not sour in his heart.
Another reason is that Cai Qinghe doesn't want to offend Li Yunru and Cai Yan's mother and daughter, but the fire in his heart always has to be released, so Fang Zhe became cannon fodder.
"Auntie, aunt means that she wants us to buy more gifts for grandma in the future, I wonder if grandma has anything special to like?" Merlin asked.
"I didn't mean that, the things in your grandmother's house are piled up like a mountain, you guys, you can accompany the old lady more at home, the old lady will be content, it doesn't matter what is polite or not." Cai Qinghe categorically will not admit that she is worried about other people's things, and she really does not lack them.
"Okay, don't talk about this, big sister, tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, how do you arrange it?" Cai Qingmao interrupted several women.
"We still have the old rules, come over on the second day of junior high school, go to my eldest brother's house tomorrow, the first day of junior high school is at my second brother's house, and the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is at my house." Zhao Cunzhou said.
"We will go to Guangzhou for the New Year this year, and we will not come back until the seventh day of the new year, and we will leave the air ticket early tomorrow morning." Cai said.
"You kid, why didn't you say something so big earlier? I also have to prepare a little gift for the elderly. Li Yunru glared at her daughter.
"Alright, let's eat first." Cai Qingmao spoke.
Only then did Mei Lan know that it was no wonder that Fang Zhe would want Mei Lan to move in so much, in this family, Fang Zhe and Cai Qingruo were the people who had the least sense of sense and right to speak. Cai Qinghe has a strong personality, and she is the eldest sister, she contributes both effort and money to this family, and her husband's position is not low, so she speaks naturally and hard; Cai Qingmao is in a high position, who dares to underestimate it? Although Shi Jingfeng is a scholar, he is also a serious third-generation official and second-generation official, so Cai Xiang's life will be so nourishing; The remaining Cai Qingruo family is naturally the object of neglect, but fortunately, Fang Zhe gave birth to the only male grandson of the Cai family, and Cai Ganlin occupies a place in the old lady's heart, otherwise, it is estimated that Cai Qingruo and Fang Zhe's life will be even more difficult.
Rao is like this, Zhao Jian didn't expect to give some shares to Cai Ganlin, the only grandson of the Cai family, it can be seen that between relatives, calculation is also indispensable and snobbery.
The Cai family on Chinese New Year's Eve was much colder than usual, with less Cai Qinghe's family of five, and then two less Cai Yan, which is equivalent to half of the people at once, plus Cai Ganlin has always talked less, especially at the table, so this Chinese New Year's Eve meal is obviously much duller than usual, and the juniors symbolically toasted the elders a few glasses of wine, said a few words of blessing, and the elders said a few words of expectation and encouragement to the juniors.
After dinner, Cai Qingmao, Cai Qingruo, and Cai Ganlin played mahjong with the old lady, while Mei Lan and Fang Zhe went out for a walk, and lived in this courtyard for almost a week, Mei Lan didn't take a good look at the surrounding environment.
Mei Lan and Fang Zhe walked along the cement road in front of the door, this area was a small building hidden in the woods, and occasionally they could meet a few children playing with firecrackers and adults passing by, Fang Zhe didn't know anything.
However, Fang Zhe also roughly knew who the people lived in this area, Cai Qingruo and Cai Ganlin both grew up in this courtyard.
"When I was abroad, I heard your uncle talk about his small hair, but unfortunately after he came back, he went his own way, and now they are all busy with their own things, and there are few people who live in this yard."
"By the way, uncle, do they have their own house?" Merlin asked.
She suddenly thought of a question, after the old lady left, would Cai Qingruo and them all have to move out of that old house?
"Yes, your uncle came back from the south and divided a building, but it was far away from here, because the old lady didn't want to leave here, and they couldn't leave the old lady to live alone, so the house has been idle."
"What about you?"
"In the early years, the ministry left us a set when we were divided into rooms, and when we came back this time, your uncle didn't let us move out, the old lady is so old, we should also stay by her side and do our filial piety. Speaking of which, I heard Gan Lin say, your aunt is going to rice country for treatment, what are you going to do? Is it okay not to go? ”
"If it doesn't work, it has to work, in this situation, I'm going to go out, something will definitely happen." Mei Lan sighed after speaking.
Although Chengcheng was arrested, he did not confess, Xiong Qingmei's case was inconclusive, and there was an unknown Curris over there, where did Meilan dare to move at this time?
Actually, Mei Lan thought about going to the hospital to check her IQ and EEG with great fanfare, anyway, Mei Lan had already checked it, and her brain was not the slightest abnormal, and listening to Chengcheng's meaning, those who wanted to arrest her also wanted to study her EEG.
But Cai Ganlin said that they couldn't make the decision on this matter, and they had to ask the people from the Security Bureau, and the people from the Security Bureau were busy investigating Chengcheng's case, and they didn't have time to answer Mei Lan for a while.
"Don't worry, I heard your uncle say, it seems that there is also a stock market wizard in Shanghai, his experience is similar to yours, and he is also quite sensitive to stocks, and he also started to speculate in stocks in his teens, and entered the market with tens of thousands of yuan, and now he has a net worth of billions, and I heard that people outside are also interested in him."
"I know, there was a report of that man some time ago, it seems to say that someone is fighting for him." Merlin laughed.
The person Mei Lan said by Fang Zhe did hear that some time ago the TV station did a show, all of which were some stock market wizards to share their stock trading experience, but the person Fang Zhe said did not appear, Mei Lan was most impressed by a Chinese aunt who used thousands of yuan to enter the market and then used the money she earned to buy several houses in Shanghai.
But the experience of these people is nothing compared to Mei Lan, because Mei Lan only took less than three years to achieve her current net worth of tens of billions from a few thousand dollars, and she has more than 500 million in her U.S. stock account, and in less than two years, she used 100,000 US dollars to bring more than 500 million, who is not afraid?
Fortunately, Meilan has entrusted Li Mingze to start building a hospital, and after the hospital is built, a lot of large-scale medical equipment will be entered, in addition, the acquisition of Henry Company is also nearing the end, in addition, Meilan has entrusted Li Mingze to help her merge and acquire a pharmaceutical manufacturer with a research institute, and intends to research and produce drugs by herself.
In short, Mei Lan wants to spend the money as much as she can.
Mei Lan and Fang Zhe came back after a circle around Cai's house, and there was no green in the courtyard in winter, it was bare everywhere, and there was nothing to see.
The two who returned home saw Li Yunru and Xiao Wang making dumplings, and the two also washed their hands to help, Mei Lan then knew that the northern New Year and the south are different, the northern New Year eats three meals as usual, but this meal in the evening is changed to dumplings, and the south generally only eats two meals during the New Year's Festival, and the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner generally starts at two o'clock, after eating, the adults are busy cleaning up, and the children are busy running out to play.
After eating the dumplings, the family accompanied the old lady to watch TV in the living room, Mei Lan received five red envelopes, and each of the five elders gave Mei Lan 10,000 yuan, and there was nothing else to remember.
On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Mei Lan was picked up early by Cai Ganlin, and he wanted to take Mei Lan out to pay New Year's greetings, because he grew up in this courtyard, and the people in the neighborhood were relatively familiar, and the elders of Duan Hangang's family also lived in this courtyard.
According to Meilan's meaning, she didn't want to go out with Cai Ganlin, after all, the two have not officially held a wedding, and she can't hide yet, where is she willing to send them to let others watch the excitement? But Cai Ganlin disagreed, and had to formally introduce her to the neighbors in the yard.
When Mei Lan heard him say this, she had to find the light green down jacket that Fang Zhe bought, and the two put on this couple's clothes and went to a nearby house for a walk, and Cai Ganlin said that this was his wife.
Later, Mei Lan learned that he took this opportunity to tell everyone that he had officially married Mei Lan and that he had nothing to do with the Ye family. R1152
