I never thought that in this foreign land, I could tell a friend about my past calmly and at length.

Speaking of my Jinxi, talking about my grandparents, talking about my mother Mei Yu and my father Jin Minghai who have been with me for three years, talking about my Chen Yuyao, talking about Zhai Yi and the rosary. All my youth and loss.

I sipped my coffee, my tone unusually calm and staccato in my tone. But Jung Eun-seung was clearly a good listener and didn't interrupt me from beginning to end. He just watched me silently, watching my calmness. Because when it comes to emotional parts, I always stop, take a moment, and when the emotions have calmed down, I will move on.

Even when it comes to the darkest things in my life, I keep a faint smile. I consciously didn't let the corners of my mouth go down, and tried my best to make it go up. Even if it's barely at the level, it's fine.

No matter how painful it is, it's gone, and it's no longer worth crying.

Finally I talked about my pokemo

, my Pokémon. I said, I love him. He is a gift from the angels. It healed my heart, gave me a direction and continued my life, which I didn't know where to go.

"I'm grateful for everything I've met now." I said, "Brown, UCL, you and Zuoyi." Thank you very much. ”

With all that said, it's almost 12 o'clock. I thought, I'm going to have to take a Ube

Went back.

Who knows, the storyteller didn't cry, but the listener had red eyes.

“The sky is blue, the g

ass is g

ee

, may we have ou

Hallowee

.” I joked with him.

"Hey. This is England, not Scotland. ”

I used the line when the Scottish Halloween imp asked for candy, which translates to "the sky is blue, the ground is green, let's celebrate Halloween Eve", and they sang and danced to get candy, so I thought it was better than shouting "T".

ick o

t

The way "eat" begged for candy was poetic.

"Telling a story to make you cry, it's still quite in the spirit of Halloween." I said.

He stiffened, "I'm a big man so I don't cry." ”

"I know, men don't flick when they have tears."

"No, in front of a girl like you, there are tears that don't 'should' be played." "That's a disrespect to you," he said sincerely. ”

I smiled back. To be said, I don't need sympathy. I am very grateful that he can empathize with him in this way.

"Will we still be friends in the future?" I asked him.

"It always has been." He said. "It's a shame that you can't be lovers. But I would be more sorry not to be friends. ”

"Thank you." I say.

As soon as the voice fell, a phone call came. I took out my phone and saw that it was Little Brown.

“Hellow？”

"It's so late, why haven't you come back yet?" Jeffrey said, "I'm all done partying and I'm home." ”

“Pokemo

What do you think? ”

"I'm asleep."

"Okay. I'll be back. ”

Hanging up the phone, Zheng Euncheng looked at me and asked, "Mr. Brown?" ”

"Yes." After thinking about it, I added, "Little Brown." ”

He opened his mouth in a little surprise, but finally only hesitated to ask me, "Are you going to stay at the Brown house for the rest of your life?" ”

I shook my head, "I'll move out when I've saved up enough money." When the three years are up, the paper contract is over. ”

"Will he let you go easily?"

I don't know if this "he" refers to Benfrio or Jeffrey.

"Don't worry." I said, "Trust me to handle it." ”

It's a big deal to trade another piece of paper, it must be possible.

Old Brown always wanted "Gold Rai."

"The wine recipe of the series even asked Kelly to go through the drawers and cabinets in my room many times, and even the suitcase many times under the pretext of tidying up the room.

But how could I be stupid enough to put it in these places.

Every time I record the ratio, I don't use conventional formulas or text records, but symbols that I set independently, which others can't understand, but I can understand what it represents at a glance. This is what I learned from mnemonics.

A good memory is better than a bad pen. I've never been a prodigy, and the dosage of the formula has to be accurate to the minute, so I write it down. It was embroidered on the pillow towel with a needle and thread, and then placed it on the head of the bed. They turned a blind eye, but I was able to relive my memories every night.

Of course, old Brown could use Qiqi to threaten me, and I'm sure he must have thought so. It's just that once we do that, we completely tear our faces. There was no one behind me, but he was a decent man. The barefoot are not afraid to wear shoes, and this principle applies to ancient and modern China and foreign countries. Moreover, after he threatened me, if I wanted to retaliate and hand over the fake prescription, his loss would be immeasurable.

How could my life and Qiqi's life be worth those losses in his heart. After weighing the two sides, Brown Sr. did not take any action to force him. After all, we are still nominally a family now.

It's only a matter of time before you leave. One year, one more year.

Seeing that it is time for Qiqi to carry out enlightenment education, I don't want him to continue to be trapped in the Brown family, which will cause misalignment of identity. And I know that Brown Sr. has always been in touch with what he calls "Miss Chen." It seems that when he flew back to Shanghai, China, and negotiated an order, Mi Si Chen was the one who took the lead.

That's why I desperately want to cut ties with the Brown family. I don't want to be manipulated by anyone anymore.

No self-esteem. I can't do "no demand" for the time being, so I have to endure and wait.

Back at Brown's house, it was nearly two o'clock in the morning.

Kiki was asleep, but Jeffrey came and knocked on my door after I had washed up. Of course, I didn't want to open it, and responded: "Is there something to talk about after dawn, I'm going to rest." ”

"I want to tell you now." Jeffrey's voice was full of excitement.

"What's the matter?" I asked lightly, sat up, tried my best to wake Qiqi, put on my slippers and walked to the door, talking to him through a door.

"Grandfather agreed."

"Agree to what?" I asked him.

"After agreeing for three years, I can pursue you."

Oh, my God! Not again.

Wrong...... Why did old Brown go crazy with him?

Nothing will happen.

I relented and asked him, "How is the winery doing?" "I suspect something is wrong with the supply of that batch.

"How do you ask this?" Jeffrey was slightly surprised.

"There is a saying in China that 'abnormality is a demon.'" I said, "Your grandfather's attitude changed so extremely, didn't you think about why?" ”

"Why is a good thing so complicated to interpret when it comes to you?" He asked me.

I laughed. "Because I'm just a complicated person."

"I don't like you like this." He said.

"Good night. Jeffrey. With that, I went back to bed, and after a while I heard his footsteps leaving.

Half a month later, Jean reappeared at home. Sure enough, something went wrong with the batch of orders in Shanghai. They negotiated buying non-vintage champagnes from other houses to replace them. Not only can it solve the urgent need, but also the price and cost of each bottle are doubled, which is almost a sure thing. They said that so many containers, with the same outer packaging, mixed with three or five bottles in one box, will not be noticed at all.

"The Chinese don't understand champagne at all, they can't drink the difference." Jean said.

I was about to walk down the stairs when I heard this, and I couldn't help but sneer.

Jeffrey wasn't there. Old Brown and Jean heard the movement and both looked up at me.

"Chinese understand wine. Red wine, beer, white wine, rice wine, all of them. I said, "As for champagne - the Chinese don't understand it, and because they understand, they don't recognize it." ”

Old Brown's face was gloomy when he heard this, and Jean's face was red and white.

I continued: "Only sparkling wines from the Champagne region of France can be called champagne. Sparkling wines produced elsewhere cannot be labelled with the English word "Champag" on the wine label

e", which is regulated in EU law. You know this better than I do. You have a scale in your heart, and you can easily get a chance to open up the name of British sparkling wine, but you have to deceive the taste buds of Chinese consumers with a mixture of inferior wines. Are you just doing a one-shot deal? ”

Old Brown opened his mouth in a deep voice: "Teresa." ”

I knew he was going to teach me to do my part, to keep smiling, and to be ready to retort.

Who told him to take the Chinese for fools?

Duty? What duty? Winemaking technician, I'm sorry I'm only paid half the salary, and I've done my part. So what duty is there to keep next? Is it your wife or your future granddaughter-in-law?

But unexpectedly, he looked at me and asked, "Do you have any good ideas?" Speak up and listen. ”

"I don't know much about business." "But I think 'integrity' is the 'duty' that every merchant must abide by, and you can be honest and ask if you can extend it, or buy Gold Rai."

Other types of wine. In short, mixing other sparkling wine will definitely ruin the reputation. If it happens, you will be attacked by both Chinese consumers and other sparkling wine brands. Hope you can think it through. ”

"Teresa, you're thinking too simply." Old Brown said, "Even if it can be extended, how long can it be extended?" It is even less feasible to buy other wines. Gold Rai

And then there are the best vintage models, and you don't want me to sell the pearls as quail eggs. Seeing that I wanted to open my mouth to persuade, he waved his hand, "It is even more impossible to let customers chase money." Obviously we are at fault, if it were you, would you chase money for more expensive wine?

"What if it's cheaper, or of equal value?" I asked him.

"That'...... That's fine. Old Brown and Jean looked at each other, then said in an uncertain tone, "Time, time is a problem." ”

"In such a short period of time, it is really not enough to develop a new variety." I said, "But, I have a ready-made recipe. ”

Gold Rai

The original recipe.

In this world, only Chen Yuyao has drunk it alone.

At that time, it was not Chardonnay grapes, but white grapes ordered by mail from Turpan, Xinjiang. As a birthday present, I experimented with it no less than 30 times to ensure its taste before bottling it for him.

"You, are you telling the truth?" Jean asked excitedly.

"Hmm." I said, "But I have my conditions." I turned my gaze to old Brown, "Mr. Brown, I'd like to talk to you alone, okay?" ”

"Then I'll take my leave, Mr. Brown." Jean immediately stood up.

When he was gone, Old Brown made a "please sit" gesture to me, and I walked over and sat down where Jean had been sitting, and then began my statement: "I need you to pay me a sum of money, and I'll sell me this piece at once." ”

I took it carefully. This recipe was put into use and put into the Chinese market, and it is difficult to guarantee that Chen Yuyao will not have the opportunity to drink it. If he comes over, Qiqi and I won't be able to eat and walk around. And if Chen Yinjun mistakenly thought that I deliberately released the clue and lured Chen Yuyao to come to me, then the fate of me and Qiqi would only be even more unimaginable.

Mr. Chen, who covers the sky with one hand, I'm still afraid.

Even Chen Yuyao is the same. Before going abroad, Chen Yinjun cut off all my back roads. He offered to return the Chen family's house, which was understandable. But the way to "return" is to let me sell it behind Chen Yuyao's back, and he will find someone to buy it, but he will not come forward. Therefore, in Chen Yuyao's opinion, she is a shameless woman who sold his childhood home and swept away all his property, and put the sincerity he entrusted to the ground and trampled it fiercely. The key is to cheat money, and the night before leaving, I deceived him as a 'married woman'.

Am I still human? Can I still have one from him?

No matter how much Chen Yuyao cares about his old feelings, he can't tolerate my tricks. Once he finds it, even if he can let me go, can he let Qiqi go?

Qiqi has the blood of the person he fears the most in his life, but he is regarded by me as a treasure. What would he think?

So, I had to move out of Brown's house at the same time as I made this recipe. However, the purpose of moving out is to live better, not to sleep on the streets.

In Yu Hua's book "Alive", there is such a passage that touched me deeply:

"Never believe that suffering is worth it, suffering is suffering and suffering does not lead to success. Suffering is not worth pursuing, and the will is honed because suffering cannot be avoided. ”

Just like now, I am trying to develop a strong heart to face the future life. But I don't deliberately pursue suffering, on the contrary, I want to live a better life with the strength of my heart.

"Nope." Old Brown also thought about it for a long time before he opened his mouth and said in a non-negotiable tone: "Only this one prescription will not work." You have to put Gold Rai

All recipes in the series are handed over. ”

I thought about it for a moment, and then said, "Yes." Equally unceremoniously added: "But you'll have to pay me more." ”
