Chapter 15: Expensive Friendship
"Send ...... Sent to me? ”
She never thought that she would receive a gift from Chen Bingyi, or such a valuable gift.
In her impression, Chen Bingyi was not very enthusiastic about her, and he almost didn't speak to him in class or sketching in the field.
Although they have been in contact a few times recently, she always feels that it is because she is not in a good situation, and Mr. Chen and Chen Bingyi are polite and not too cold to her.
"I ...... I ghostwrote a few small paintings for others, and I thought it would suit you, and you bought it. ”
Chen Bingyi was the first time to give a girl something, and there was a suspicious flush on his face, and he was so embarrassed that he didn't know where to look, and finally had to stare at the German-Han Ship and Offshore Engineering dictionary and read it silently in his heart over and over again.
A small bottle of welfare water is not something that can be bought for the remuneration of a few small paintings, to put it bluntly, this kind of consumption can be regarded as a huge amount of money for a family like Chen Bingyi.
Chen Bingyi saw that she hesitated and didn't take it, thinking that she didn't like it, and then she thought that she had seen too many good things, a bottle of foreign perfume, maybe she couldn't look at it and didn't know, and when she opened her mouth again, she was even more unconfident.
"Don't you like it?"
Liao Wanyu understood that it was a misunderstanding when she saw him like this, but just as she was about to explain, it was time to get off the tram.
The two of them hurriedly got off the tram one after the other, and Chen Bingyi walked ahead with a book in her hand, her steps were very big, and she trotted two steps to catch up.
In such a cramped and depressed day, receiving an expensive gift that is enough for an ordinary family to spend for a year, Liao Wanyu can't say what mood she is in.
While she was anxious about his untimely extravagance and waste, she was also very touched by his expensive friendship. The two emotions merged together, and she didn't know what to say.
Chen Bingyi probably felt embarrassed, and refused to go in after putting the book at the door, Liao Wanyu opened the door and invited him to go in and drink water, but he didn't move.
"Brother Bingyi, come in, come in first, I have something to tell you."
Liao Wanyu pulled Chen Bingyi's sleeve and pulled him in awkwardly, wanting to pour a glass of water, but under a wipe, the pots with round bellies were cold, and they were really not suitable for drinking in this season, so she also sat down.
The two of them were silent for a while, and sat awkwardly opposite each other for three or five minutes, but Liao Wanyu spoke first.
"Brother Bingyi, this bottle of perfume is too expensive, I really can't accept it, if you give something for three or two yuan today, I will never twist it with you, but this bottle of Welfare is not something you can buy by ghostwriting a few small paintings."
"I didn't know what prices were on the market, but now that I'm living with a little wadder, I realize how luxurious we are. In the early years, when I was still ignorant, I complained to my mother many times, and I always felt that my clothes and jewelry were not as good as my sisters, but now I think about it, it is very funny. ”
Liao Wanyu observed Chen Bingyi's expression, and seeing that he didn't react, she continued: "It's not that I don't like this gift. ”
Chen Bingyi stayed on the table, and suddenly looked at her when he heard her like this, "Then why don't you accept it?" Do you think that a poor man like me is not worthy of such a good gift for you? ”
"Yes, you used to be rich, but can you look down on me? Can't ordinary people like us consume extravagant things? Why are you so hard to serve! It's a new era, and everyone is equal, you know? ”
The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and he simply stood up and looked at Liao Wanyu condescendingly, "Why did I give you a gift instead of someone else?" Don't you even want to think about it? ”
"Of course not!" Liao Wanyu knew that he had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained: "I don't look down on you, it's just that you see, I don't need such extravagant things to be around now, I don't have a dance party, I don't have to dress up according to other people's preferences, I really don't need it." ”
After hearing this, Chen Bingyi felt that she seemed to understand something, it was not that she didn't like this gift, maybe she just didn't like perfume.
"That'...... If I give you something else, will you accept it? ”
Thinking in her heart about how to say the words so as not to become a businessman, Liao Wanyu was also very embarrassed.
"Brother Bingyi, it's good that you can come to see me often, you and Mr. Chen still remember me at this time, this heart is much more valuable than a bottle of perfume."
This sentence is obviously very useful, Chen Bingyi gradually calmed down, and he also felt his recklessness, he pursed his thin lips, and frowned slightly, "It's because I didn't think it through, this matter ...... If you have the opportunity to see Abba in the future, don't tell him. ”
Liao Wanyu pretended to be old-fashioned and patted Chen Bingyi's shoulder, "Don't worry, I won't talk half a word with Mr." ”
###
At this moment, he was sitting on a Victorian-style white and green upholstered sofa, and behind him stood Shen Minglan, a famous prostitute in Luzhou, who was only wearing a round-necked placket and water-green shorts and trousers.
She permed her long curly hair, and at this moment, she combed it all to one side and rolled it into a bun, and pressed her hands on Zhen Gu's temples with both hands, and the strength was precise and accurate, relieving Zhen Gu's headache.
"I heard that Mr. Li's assistant was rejected by the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications?"
Unbuttoning the neckline of the gown, Zhen Gu slowly closed his eyes.
"Not only Mr. Li, but even Mr. Sheng and Yang Shilang were both rejected. However, Mr. Sheng has now taken up the position of the right attendant of the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications, and it is a foregone conclusion that he will achieve three members and three directors. ”
"If there's a board meeting, you're going to go, right?" Minglan has never been to Shanghai, she has only seen photos in pictorials, and the concession is foreign and modern.
Zhen Gu couldn't hear what she meant, "Not necessarily, the annual meeting in June was only attended by more than 500 people." ”
Minglan chuckled, "Isn't Liao Zhanshan already solved?" That little cripple was also kicked out of the house, and it wasn't destined to be all yours? ”
In Zhen Gu's opinion, Shen Minglan still has some women's opinions, and she thinks about things too optimistically.
The shares of the Liao family were not all owned by Liao Zhanshan, and he had changed his will twice after Liao Xi was born, if it weren't for the fact that the lawyer of the Liao family had been bought by Zhen Gu, 70% of the equity of the property under the Liao family's name would be in the name of that little cripple.
At present, although the two sisters and brothers have been kicked out, and the last will has been destroyed under Zhen Gu's nose, Bai Xiuzhen is still the mother of the Liao family after all, and the second and fourth girls are not vegetarians, so things can be solved with three hammers and two sticks.
But Zhen Gu didn't have to talk to her about these words.
"When it comes to things, I think of something. Yesterday, your mother called to my office and asked me for money, seven yellow croaker cat's eye rings, and she was very discerning. ”
Shen Minglan pretended to be surprised, she walked around from the back of the sofa, and when she reached Zhen Gu's side, the whole person was softly nestled in his arms.
"I really don't know about that. Yesterday, the third child and a few of them came to play cards with me, and I heard that Boss Bao brought out a few things from the inner prison, so we wanted to have long eyes, and she swallowed clouds and fog in the pavilion, afraid that I thought I bought something good behind her back. ”
At first, her hand was honestly placed on Zhen Gu's chest, which was already gently scratching Zhen Gu's throat under Zhen Gu's neck like a feather.
"You must not give it to her, she is very funny, and she must have called many people at once. Just wait to meet a blind cat! ”
Of course, Zhen Gu won't be a blind cat, but he wants Shen Minglan to accompany Lu Zhiming, the "audit director" from Shanghai, tonight, and he always has to give some sweetness.
In the gold box, there is a pair of sapphire earrings from the old pit of the Ming Dynasty, the gem is larger than the thumbnail of ordinary people, and the bottom bracket of white gold is inlaid, which costs Zhen Gu more than 30 large strips.
Shen Minglan has been in the flower world for six or seven years, and she has seen a lot of good things, but this pair of earrings is too eye-catching, so she can't help but exclaim.
"You don't have to look at any cat's eyes and dog's eyes, this is the object in the box of that Lafayette, it is something from the previous dynasty."
Shen Minglan put her arms around Zhen Gu and kissed him heavily on the cheek several times, her heart was full of joy, but her mouth was not very honest.
"You're making fun of me. I'm not with you for these external things, and you don't have to spend money like this in the future, I really love you as a person. ”
You can listen to the words, but you don't have to believe it, Zhen Gu gently patted Shen Minglan's cheek, "I talked to Mr. Lu about changing clothes, but I can't delay, the cards downstairs are still played by Xiao Jiudai." ”
Zhen Gu stood up and asked Shen Minglan to serve him in a wide robe, still changing into a black robe, except for the difference in material and jacquard, there was no difference at first glance.
He buttoned the neckline with his own hands, and while walking out of the room, he said as if unintentionally: "I'm afraid I'm going to get drunk at night, you take care of Mr. Lu." ”
Of course, Shen Minglan understood that she had been given to someone by him as if she were a gift, but she had already eaten this bowl of rice, and besides, she had just received such a valuable pair of earrings, even if she didn't want to, things had to be done.
Zhen Gu walked downstairs with his clothes on the hem, only to see that Xiao Jiu had already lost half of the money in his box, he reached out and pinched Xiao Jiu's cheek, teasing her for being Lu Zhiming's scout.
Xiao Jiu is a Qing man led by Shen Minglan, fifteen or sixteen years old, he plays the pipa well, although his appearance is not beautiful, but his temperament is good.
She showed and touched it, but she didn't eat it. But the delicate and pretty little girl, casually spoiled, can make people crispy bones, but there are also some markets.
She sat next to Zhen Gu to add tea and hand fruits, and occasionally Zhen Gu grabbed her hand and touched two cards, and her luck was not bad.
When she was playing cards, she put her head against Zhen Gu's neck and laughed, and for a moment, Zhen Gu was a little distracted.
I don't know when Liao Wanyu will be able to get along with him like this.
The afternoon was passed away quickly, a group of people had dinner lively, and Lu Zhiming's words began to be unclear when he pushed the cup and changed the lamp, he pulled Shen Minglan again and again, and rubbed his hands back and forth between his crisp breasts and buttocks.
If you don't end the game at this time, you will inevitably be disgusted.
Zhen Gu was the first to stand up, staggering and saying "drunk words" and walked out, Lu Zhiming was blindfolded, and waved his hand with him with a smile, without the intention of retaining.
Shen Minglan said something in Lu Zhiming's ear, Lu Zhiming nodded, and she trotted out.
This house is a traditional red brick house built in the Qing Dynasty, with a three-drop and double-guarded structure, and Zhen Gu took care of the second gate where they ate and drank, and the footsteps immediately became stable.
His eyes were calm, not half drunk, and when he heard the footsteps, he turned around to look, and when he saw that it was Shen Minglan, he couldn't help frowning.
What is she doing running out at this time......
