(398) The first dinner
Because she rested quietly on Sunday, her daughters were all resting, and there was no activity at school, she had a rare good night's sleep last night. After cultivating enough mental softness, she felt in a good mood as soon as she woke up in the morning, she was busy with housework alone, and made some simple lunches, and the two little daughters Jiayi and Jiayue finally got up one after another by rubbing their eyes.
After waiting for the two precious daughters to have lunch, Jingrou cleaned up for a while before finally finishing all the housework. Seeing that her mother was finally done, Jiayi and Jiayue also began to pull her excitedly and began to choose the clothes they were going to wear for the rare dinner tonight. I remember that when Yamaguchi was still there, this kind of scene would appear at home for no more than a week at most, and at this moment, in order not to make the two baby daughters sad, Jingrou just sighed silently in her heart, but did not mention a word about Yamaguchi.
Although the person he wants to meet tonight is his old classmate, there should be no other person to attend, but after all, Liao Hong's identity is no longer the small boss of the handicraft factory in the past, so no matter what, when you go to his dinner, you must dress up noble and decent.
There is no shortage of dresses for this kind of banquet in Jingrou's home, because she also had to accompany Yamaguchi to meet customers every once in a while, but for more than a year, she really didn't even have the opportunity to touch those clothes. Jingrou first helped Jiayi and Jiayue each choose a small dress, Jiayi's dress is a more handsome and fashionable aqua blue short skirt, while Jiayue's dress is a very cute fan princess dress. Jingrou tried on several sets of dresses by herself, but because her body shape has changed a lot over the past year, she has lost a lot of weight, so many clothes look too loose to wear, and there is really no way to put them on again. In the end, Jingrou chose a black tunic dress for herself, there was no excessive decoration and cumbersomeness on the skirt, and she looked more fashionable and tall with her already elegant temperament.
After choosing clothes and shoes, the mother and daughter began to take a shower to prepare for going out, and after the three of them were almost dressed up, the eldest daughter Xinxin also drove a car to pick them up. Because Jingrou had reminded Xinxin to let her wear a dress before, so today Xinxin came over in a beige dress, and when everything was ready, the mother and daughter set off and went directly to the hotel.
In fact, Liao Hong originally planned to send a special car to Jingrou's house to pick up the four of them, but he was afraid that it would make Jingrou unhappy and add trouble, so he endured it and didn't mention it to Jingrou.
However, Liao Hong sent Fang Sheng to stand at the gate of the hotel early, waiting to receive Jingrou's mother and daughter, so when Jingrou came to the gate of the hotel with her daughters, Fang Sheng immediately stepped forward and said to Jingrou with a rare smile: "Hello, Ms. Yao, the president asked me to pick you and your daughters here, please bring your daughters with me!" ”
Jing Rou thanked Fang Sheng a little embarrassedly, and then followed behind Fang Sheng with her three daughters.
Although the three daughters have stayed in many hotels with Jingrou, they have never seen such a high-end hotel, let alone a presidential suite. So although the three daughters didn't speak much insolently under the gentle gesture along the way, their eyes were always filled with surprise, and they were not surprised by the scene in front of them for a moment. Not only that, even for the host of tonight's dinner, Jingrou's three daughters can be said to be all amazed, especially when Fang Sheng walked into the presidential suite with everyone, the surprised expressions of the three daughters were a little difficult to hide. Originally, as soon as they arrived at the gate of the hotel, they saw the cool Fang Sheng who led the way, and the three daughters were already a little surprised, and at this moment they finally saw the true face of their mother's old classmate, and they felt that the man in front of them needed to be looked up to.
Liao Hong wore a special black dress today, which is not as rigorous as ordinary dresses seem, but it looks so elegant and extraordinary, coupled with his tall figure and noble temperament, it can only be evaluated with two words: perfect. It's just that although it looks high, as soon as Liao Hong saw Jingrou's daughters, he immediately greeted them very warmly and amiably.
Although Jingrou didn't feel any feeling of being left out, Liao Hong's Japanese level was extremely high, and she didn't know it for the first time until today, and she was surprised that she could only see the stitches, so she quickly handed the gift bag in her hand to Liao Hong and said: "Liao Hong, a little caution is not respectful, please accept it, don't be polite to me!" ”
Liao Hong focused his attention on Jingrou's body, as if he had just discovered Jingrou's existence, he reached out and took the gift bag, and then looked at Jingrou with a smile and said, "What are you doing with so much heart, it's just to invite you to a light meal, don't do such things in the future, you know?" ”
After speaking, Liao Hong led the way in front and asked the mother and daughter to sit with him at the high-end marble table in the restaurant, although Jingrou had asked him not to spend too much money on a treat that day, but he still specially invited several of Tokyo's most high-level chefs to come over, and specially chose the highest quality Japanese ingredients for tonight's dinner. Today's dinner is not only roast beef for Jing'rou's youngest daughter, Liao Hong also specially asked the chef to prepare a number of authentic Japanese haute cuisine, and set a large table almost without any spare space.
The daughters looked at this extremely sumptuous dinner, and they all felt a little dazzled, but Jingrou secretly cried out bitterly in her heart: Liao Hong, Liao Hong, I know that your enthusiasm is your kindness, but you make me owe such a big favor, I'm afraid I won't be able to pay you back for a while!
Liao Hong's enthusiasm and his amiability made Jingrou's three daughters quickly lose the nervousness at the beginning, and Liao Hong's humor also made them unhappy for a moment, leaving an excellent impression on the three of them, and also made the three of them like it at once, this handsome and cute old classmate of their mother.
In fact, Jingrou tonight was even more nervous than her three daughters, because she didn't know what Liao Hong would say to her three daughters, and she was a little worried that Liao Hong would talk nonsense in front of her daughters and mention the old things between them. Although Jingrou is not an old-fashioned woman, she has always said something to her daughters, and she has never hidden it, but after all, her husband has only died for a long time, and she has no plans to find any boyfriend at all, so she doesn't want her daughters to worry about remarrying, and then let her daughters worry about what problems related to their stepfather.
Fortunately, Liao Hong didn't say a word about the past between them tonight, he looked as if he really just wanted to invite Jingrou's mother and daughter to have a meal, he just mentioned some funny things to his daughters about when he was in high school, and gave Jingrou who was in high school at that time a high evaluation.
The daughters rarely hear Jingrou mention what she did when she was in school, and Liao Hong's words were interesting and vivid for them to listen to, so they inevitably asked Jingrou a lot about her student days. Because Jingrou's student days were almost all related to her ex-husband Qin Junchi, and the so-called high school years can be said to be "thrilling", and there was nothing that made her feel happy, so in the face of her daughters' questions, she could only hide a general explanation and fool around. Jingrou secretly glared at Liao Hong several times with some disgust, wanting him to stop and stop mentioning those old things, but Liao Hong seemed to have said something about it, and under the deterrence of Jingrou's eyes, he was very cooperative and never mentioned it again.
The two younger daughters are easy to deceive and talk about, but the eldest daughter Xinxin heard and saw some extraneous sounds, because she found that her mother and this old classmate were so familiar that they could speak with their eyes, and this Uncle Liao seemed to care about her mother, definitely not just out of politeness as her mother said. Over the years, Jingrou's eldest daughter Xinxin has almost all of her painful experiences, so she doesn't want her mother to give up her possible happiness in the future, and stay widowed for their sisters for a lifetime at such a young age. The Uncle Liao in front of him is not only handsome and kind, but he also seems to have thoughts about his mother, and Xinxin feels that her mother is not disgusted with this Uncle Liao, so she immediately had the idea of matching her mother with Uncle Liao.
So, Xinxin found an opportunity to suddenly ask Liao Hong, intentionally or unintentionally: "Uncle Liao, you and my mother are old classmates, so is your child about the same age as me?" ”
Liao Hong immediately looked at Xin Xin with some shame and replied: "Hehe, I can't compare with your mother, your mother is a blessed woman, although she is as old as me, she has three daughters by her side." What about me, hehe, you Uncle Liao, I don't even have a child yet! ”
Liao Hong's answer surprised Xinxin, but although she wanted to know the reason, she was embarrassed to ask again, so Xinxin quickly changed the topic and said tentatively: "God, Uncle Liao, you shouldn't be able to, you're still a golden bachelor, right?" ”
Jingrou on the side had already heard the deep meaning of Xinxin's words, and without waiting for Liao Hong to answer, she quickly interjected and said, "Xinxin, what are the children's blind inquiries?" Your Uncle Liao has a wife, and he is still a very beautiful daughter! ”
This answer is not what Xinxin wants, as soon as she heard that Liao Hong had a wife, she immediately let out a "oh" of disappointment, and was no longer interested in speaking.
Of course, the shrewd Liao Hong also heard the deep meaning of Xinxin's words, but when they met for the first time, he really couldn't tell Xinxin everything at once, and Jingrou wouldn't let him say those words to his daughter easily.
So in order to break this embarrassing situation, Liao Hong could only change the topic and asked Xinxin with a smile and said, "Xinxin, can you tell Uncle Liao, do you have any plans for the future?" ”
As soon as she heard this, Xin Xin immediately became interested again, she turned her head to look at Jing Rou, and saw that her mother didn't want to stop her, so she smiled generously and said: "Don't hide it Uncle Liao, I actually want to do a lot of things, I like work related to fashion, and I also like work related to tourism." It's just that it is impossible to take care of these two aspects of work at the same time, and I can only choose a specific job, so I haven't thought about it yet, and I don't know what kind of work I should do first after graduation! ”
