Although Yingchun is small, his brain is not stupid, and he remembered it after listening to it for a long time, and asked: "Then the Europeans are like him?" ”

The clockmaker had already finished the Western clock on Xingshuang's side, and was packing up his tools, when he heard Yingchun's words, he replied with a smile: "If Miss wants to know, there are many more like me in our church, Miss can go and have a look." ”

Xing Shuang was afraid that Yingchun would really be clamoring to go, so she hurriedly said to Yingchun: "When you are older, I will take you there, but now that you are still young, I will take you out and I am afraid that you will lose it, don't let my mother worry." ”

Yingchun agreed, and when he heard that the watchmaker was going to talk back to the old lady, he simply took his mother's hand and followed him all the way to the Crane Hall.

When Wang and Jia's mother heard that the clock in Qingyuanju had been adjusted, Xing Shuang also looked at them and nodded at them, so they were relieved and asked the clockmaker to pick the remaining two.

This time, Xing Shuang didn't follow, but sat down and told Jia Mu and Wang about the origin of the watchmaker.

"It's rare to see someone surnamed Jie." After listening to this, Wang said: "But this name is really long, I only remember the two words Jack in front of me." ”

Mother Jia glanced at the past speechlessly, and before she wanted to say anything, she heard Xing Shuang smile and said: "Brother and sister, the habit of this foreigner is to put the first name in the front and the surname in the back. His surname is Freddy, and the European pronunciation is not like ours, Jack is a name, Freddy is a surname, and the Jaxson in the middle is his Christian name. ”

Wang Shi was confused when he heard it, and he didn't know the European pronunciation, so he was a little faceless for a while, and his face sank: "My sister-in-law learns quickly, but I don't know this." ”

Xing Shuang glanced at Jia Mu and said with a smile: "Isn't it that I heard the old man say last night, his mouth is more broken than mine, and I heard that he has learned some foreigners' words." ”

Jia Mu was curious for a while: "Oh? What did you learn, and you also said to listen to it? ”

Xing Shuang spread her hands: "Where did my daughter-in-law go to school, I still can't remember what the master said." The old lady wants to hear it, so tell Jack to come over and say a few words in a while? ”

Jia Mu was interested, and really waited for the clock to be repaired, and left Na Jack to speak. He also asked him to speak a few words in the language of his hometown.

Jack is also generous, in fact he is not surprised by this situation, there are curious people everywhere he goes, and he knows that there is no malice in it.

So he said a few polite words such as "good afternoon, beautiful ladies", Xing Shuang understood, but did not squeak, Jia Mu asked him what he meant, he explained the words here, Xing Shuang had to pretend to be "shy" with Jia Mu and Wang.

"In my hometown, there is no skimpiness in compliments, and it is also a kind of politeness to praise women's beauty."

Jack was afraid that these noble ladies would think that he was abrupt, so he quickly explained.

Wang still felt a little ashamed, but after listening to Jack's explanation, his heart calmed down, and then looked at the old lady and Xing, and saw that they were not as exaggerated as himself, but his heart was more energetic, forcing himself to look more calm.

Jack also introduced some European customs and customs, and Jia Mu and Wang were stunned for a while. Jia Mu has seen the world again, and Europe is also a new region for her, and the Wang family has no knowledge.

However, Xing Shuang is relatively calm, many of what Jack said are ancient rites, to be honest, Europe at this time is only relatively open to China, but in fact it is also very conservative.

For example, the veneer salute is only done by people who are very close, and only the curtsy is the norm. The hand kiss is only available in France, and the Portuguese and the generation close to the English Channel are not very fond of it. Especially in the conservative English Channel, only the handshake is actually a formal ceremony.

It's just that this handshake is also extremely abrupt in China. Men and women don't sit at the same table at the age of seven, not to mention skin-to-skin contact? Xing Shuang saw that Jia Mu and Wang didn't want to listen to it, so she interrupted Jack in time and said to him: "Thank you for your introduction, we like your country very much, please tell us something more interesting next time." ”

Jack understood as soon as he heard this, made a European bow, and said respectfully: "Thank you for the call, I hope there will be a chance to serve you next time." ”

Xing Shuang smiled and asked people to send him out, and as soon as this Jack left, Jia Mu turned her head to look at her and said, "You accept it quickly, but you are calmer than us people." ”

Xing Shuang smiled faintly and said: "There are different rules everywhere, when I was at home, weren't the rules different from here?" I'm used to it, and I don't think it's weird. If the old lady doesn't like to hear this, the next time she calls him, she doesn't call him back. ”

Jia Mu originally had this plan, but after listening to Xing Shuang's words, she felt that she was being looked down upon by the old family? Thinking that the old family's small family can adapt to the Guogong Mansion so quickly, and can adapt to the world of foreigners so quickly, if she is not as good as the old family, wouldn't it become a joke?

This made Jia Mu angry, and she said that she would listen to some new things about foreigners next time.

Wang didn't dare to show weakness, and said that he would listen to it next time. Xing Shuang saw the two of them like this, smiled and didn't say anything.

But there is one more thing, Xing Shuang doesn't say no.

"Old lady, what do you ......think of the things that the first master mentioned before he went to the palace to congratulate him?"

Jia Mu remembered this and hurriedly said: "This is the right thing, I almost forgot about it." What should be purchased and decorated will be done today, and the province will be panicked tomorrow. ”

Xing Shuang smiled: "Don't worry, old lady, this is all ready." But where to hold a banquet tomorrow, I have to ask the old lady to show it. ”

Wang also knew that this was a serious banquet at home during the New Year, and he didn't dare to be careless for a while.

"It's great to rely on your eldest brother's garden, I remember there's a water pavilion there, don't you?" Jia Mu thought for a while and asked.

Xing Shuang hurriedly smiled: "The old lady has a good memory, the garden at that end and the garden of the eldest brother are connected together, I thought that the two families should not stop moving, so I also opened the door, and it is enough for hospitality." ”

Jia Mu said: "The houses there are all cleaned up and used for the guests to rest and freshen up, and you can just watch and do the rest." ”

Xing Shuang responded, and seeing that Jia's mother was also sleepy, the two daughters-in-law got up together to say goodbye.

In addition to the Immortal Crane Hall, the Wang family was about to leave, Xing Shuang stopped her and said, "If my brother and sister are free, can you go to my place?" ”

Wang asked, "What's the matter with my sister-in-law?" ”

Xing Shuang smiled: "Is it true that my brother and sister pointed to me to hold the banquet?" How do I understand these rules, or come and help me. What kind of food and wine should be served here, whether everyone should be seated separately or together, and which troupe should be called in, don't they all have to be pointed out by their younger siblings? ”
