Chapter 146: Preparation
Jane's mother, who was going to return to China in two days, was very efficient, and quickly packed her luggage, in addition to a streamlined carry-on bag, she also packed six large boxes for consignment.
Anyway, there are people who come and go, and it's not a big deal to have more things. But the question is, what did she buy?
The whole six boxes look overweight, adding up to 300 pounds, what is there in the United States that is worth her so much trouble to move back? And Jian Yang wondered when she went to loot all these things? I feel that these days she drinks tea and chats with many aunts and eats every day, and goes to the company for meetings every day, she is really unconvinced, my mother's time management is simply at the master level, better than Luo Zhixiang......
Speaking of shopping, Jian Yang is a capital "service" word to his mother, not to mention anything else, this time he went to Fei'er's house as a guest, if it wasn't for his mother's single-handedness, where could he do it so satisfactorily.
In my impression, my mother has always been like Doraemon, no matter what she wants, she can conjure it up like a trick.
Seeing that her mother had already packed her things, Jian Yang went over to say goodnight to her.
"Mom, I won't send you on your plane on Friday, you be careful all the way, remember to send me WeChat when you get to City B." Although the plane is very convenient now, it is not difficult to meet, but my mother came all the way to see him and Fei'er, and arranged the internship in the future, and I was always very moved when my son was in his heart.
"Well, don't worry about it, I've arranged the driver, and someone will pick it up. By the way, you didn't have an event scheduled for tomorrow night, did you? Mom suddenly remembered something important and quickly asked.
"Tomorrow? Thursday? It seems like nothing is wrong. "Jian Yang's original arrangement was probably to make an appointment with Fei'er.
"Great, great, look at my memory, I almost forgot to tell you about such an important matter......" Jane's mother was also busy for the past two days, and only then did she remember, "I ordered Menton dinner for you and Fei'er before, that is, tomorrow night, you two will go on a date." ”
Menton is one of the most expensive French restaurants in Boston, and was once selected as one of the 100 Best Restaurants in America along with L'espalier.
The decoration style of this shop is very cold, with marbled tabletops and delicate wall lamps, which is very suitable for young couples to have a romantic date, and there are often people who confess and propose marriage in the store, and many dishes on the menu are award-winning, and the dishes are also unique and very "interesting", such as foie gras with fried cherries and feta cheesecake,
Jane's mother was hired for this store when she first came to Boston, and she really liked it, and the son must support him to fall in love and become a mother now, so he still asked someone to make an appointment until this Thursday.
"I originally wanted to give you and Fei'er an appointment on Friday, but it was too hot to make an appointment, so I can only make an appointment on Thursday, so I still ask your Aunt Vicky to help." Jane's mother is really attentive, "By the way, their family has a dress code for dinner, you and Fei'er dress up formally." I was given a credit card when I made a reservation, and you can just use the card you booked to pay the bill. ”
This kind of high-end restaurant is usually asking customers to provide credit card information when making a reservation, and there is a certain penalty if there is no show. After all, the restaurant needs to prepare the ingredients according to the number of receptions on the day, especially if the restaurant has a fixed set menu. In the unlikely event that a customer fails to make an appointment, it will cause losses to the restaurant, because some of the restaurants prepared have also invested manpower and material resources.
When I heard that my mother originally wanted to make an appointment on Friday, I was shocked to give Jian Yang, but fortunately I didn't make an appointment, otherwise it would be very embarrassing.
"I'm glad you didn't make an appointment, and we won't be able to go on Friday." Jian Yang felt really lucky.
"What's wrong? What's on schedule for Friday? Jane's mother squeezed her eyebrows at her son, and she was really young, as soon as her mother's big light bulb left, her son arranged it.
"Didn't I tell you? We set off on Friday afternoon, and Fei'er's family went to the soup and called me. Jian Yang seems to vaguely remember mentioning it to his mother, but now it seems that he has misremembered.
"Soup?" Mom was surprised.
"Yes, not far away, it's a Japanese-style hot spring holiday hotel, go to a weekend and come back." I probably forgot to mention it before, so let's just make up for it now.
Jane's mother's eyes narrowed, and she looked at her son carefully, "Tell me what you've prepared." ”
"Swim trunks?" Mom's question is too strange, what else can you prepare for the bath, isn't it just swimming trunks.
Jane's mother is so angry, where did she raise such a straight man's son, he really followed his identical father.
"You're going to just go with your swim trunks?" Mom's question clearly turned on the mocking mode.
Jian Yang instinctively wanted to answer "yes", but he knew very well that it was definitely not the answer his mother wanted. So he didn't say a word, waiting for his mother to speak.
"It's not the first time you've soaked in the soup, our family of three has been to Japan several times alone, so you don't want to think about what I prepare every time?" When the mother's tone was heard, she was very dissatisfied with her son's sluggishness.
"You said you prepared it, how do I know?" Jian Yang is really wronged, he used to only wear swimming trunks......
The mother didn't answer, and directly began to unpack the luggage that had been packed again, and at the same time instructed her son to go to the medicine cabinet at home to get a few bottles of Japanese eye drops that she had brought with her when she came.
Jane's mother quickly opened a large cardboard box that had been packed, and carefully rummaged through the box full of things, and finally found a bunch of bottles and cans.
"The hot spring water is not as mineral as the water at home, and even if it doesn't get into the eyes, it will be very uncomfortable for the eyes after steaming for a long time. So be sure to bring eye drops, remember to put them in your hands and mouths when you go in, and put a few drops directly when you need to use them. Here is a brand new big box, a total of 12 bottles, you can count a few bottles of you, eye drops can't be mixed. It's better to put a label on it, so that you don't get confused about everything that looks the same. Mom's careful explanation, which reminded Jian Yang that every time he went to Japan to make a bath, it seemed that his mother had indeed prepared, but he didn't pay much attention to it.
After saying the eye drops, my mother picked up the bottles and cans on the ground again.
"This is La Prairie's sturgeon roe body lotion, you remember to give it to Fei'er's mother, basically no taste, very lubricated, this is a small spatula that comes with it, you must not lose it, it is a match." Jian Yang's admiration for his mother at this moment is like a surging river......
"This is Byredo's Bal D'Afrique Body Lotion, which is suitable for a little girl of Fei'er's age, with a milky taste mixed with a little sweet fruitiness, which the little girl will definitely love. Do you think there are any other little girls to go? The number of etiquette should be thorough, and no one should be missing. I still have a few bottles in stock. "Byredo is a niche premium fragrance brand from Sweden that is not only great at making fragrances, but also great personal care products, such as the first class toiletries of Emirates.
"I guess the rest of the hotels have them, and it's better to prepare these two by yourself." After explaining all this, my mother asked mysteriously in a low voice, "Do you have any private soup this time?" As the name suggests, a private bath is a private bathing hot spring for VIP guests, which is very suitable for couples or couples, and can be dressed without clothing.
"I don't know, I haven't been." Jian Yang answered truthfully.
"What do you know?" Mom said angrily, no matter what, she still took out another bottle from the box, "This is a particularly niche organic skin care brand in Europe, Susanne Kaufmann, their skin care essential oil is particularly mild, many high-end spas in Switzerland use their products, I planted this brand with your Aunt Kobayashi last time, it is so easy to use." ”
Jian Yang was stunned when he heard this, he still didn't understand what this had to do with private soup, and what did it have to do with himself, please, big men don't use these things......
"If you have the opportunity to soak in the bath alone with Fei'er, you can oil her well, haven't you ever seen that kind of little couple on the beach smearing each other's oil? How interesting! "My mother is about to be angry with her own son, and she has no mood at all.
