Chapter 139: Visit the Second Elder

Wake up in the morning.

"Are all the gifts ready? Alright, let's go. ”

Luo Yu and Qiao Xiangxue left the hotel and headed to the very famous Mid-Levels Villa on Hong Kong Island.

On the way, Qiao Xiangxue temporarily made up for Luo Yu's homework.

"My mother turned out to be the eldest lady of the Lin family on Hong Kong Island, although this Lin family on Hong Kong Island is not as prominent as the Lin family in the imperial capital, but it is also a famous family with considerable weight in the upper class society on Hong Kong Island. ”

"Take my grandfather, for example, who used to be the secretary to the governor of Hong Kong Island, and my grandmother was also very powerful, and she used to work at the British Consulate. ”

"Let me tell you this, the second elder is not only very well-connected on Hong Kong Island, but also in the British side, he can talk to the royal family, and many wealthy local businessmen who do business in Europe usually have to talk to the second elder. ”

When it comes to the background of her mother's mother's family, this cold beauty also looks a little proud.

Mid-levels Villas is a celebrity gathering place on Hong Kong Island, with many celebrities making their homes here.

The two came to a villa and rang the doorbell.

"Xiangxue, looking forward to the stars and the moon, you can be regarded as looking forward to your little baby, it's windy outside, come in." ”

The one who came out to open the door was a noble lady, followed by a Filipino maid, who was dressed in the same style as the Queen of England.

This noble lady is naturally Qiao Xiangxue's grandmother Sophie, and her name is very foreign, I don't know if it was changed when she was stationed in the United Kingdom.

After entering the house, a white-haired old man who was reading a newspaper on the sofa also stood up, helped his glasses, and said with a smile:

"Xiangxue, you're here. ”

This person is Qiao Xiangxue's grandfather, Lin Xitai, who served as a secretary to the governor.

Immediately, the eyes of the two elders fell on Luo Yu.

Grandma Sophie looked at Luo Yu for a moment, and said with a smile: "You are Yu'er, right, it is really the same as what Huixin praised on the phone, the spirit is extraordinary, a talent, come and come, sit down, don't be polite to grandma." ”

It is said that mother and daughter are sisters in the previous life, before coming, Lin Huixin was already on the phone and chatted with her mother for an hour, and the topic all revolved around Luo Yu.

Lin Huixin now loves Luo Yu in every way, naturally it is infected to the old man, this fashionable and foreign lady, has great expectations for Luo Yu, after entering the door, at least from the appearance, she was not disappointed, sure enough, as her daughter described, she is a talented woman and a good match.

Grandfather Lin Xitai trembled his eyebrows slightly, the old couple was deeply influenced by British culture, advocating Western gentlemanly demeanor and aristocratic etiquette, and the imaginary grandson-in-law should be a gentle and elegant, handsome man with a good demeanor.

However, Xiangxue's husband is handsome and has nothing to say, but in terms of politeness, it is a little unsatisfactory, and he has not called anyone until he came in.

After sitting down, the Filipino maid served tea.

The second elder pulled Qiao Xiangxue and asked long and short questions, and then the topic naturally fell on the marriage of Luo Yu and Qiao Xiangxue.

Lin Xitai was indignant about this: "Then what about the Qiao family, Xiangxue got married for such a big thing, and he didn't discuss it with our second elder in advance." ”

In the eyes of famous people, marriage is never a simple love, but also related to family interests.

In other words, if you follow the normal process, the most important elders in a big family should at least sit down and carefully consider the qualifications of the son-in-law.

Of course, the matter has come to this point, and Lin Xitai, the grandfather, can only complain.

But since they met, the second elder can't help but care about what kind of person his granddaughter is married to.

"Luo Yu, what are you doing on the mainland?"

Lin Xitai was quite reserved, and did not ask Luo Yu's family background and education as soon as he came, but cared about Luo Yu's work.

But it's such an ordinary question, and it's instantly embarrassing.

Of course, it was not Luo Yu who was embarrassed, it was Qiao Xiangxue.

"He is currently staying at home. ”

Qiao Xiangxue's cheeks were slightly red, and at the same time she glanced at someone complainingly, she wanted Luo Yu to serve as the vice president of the company last night, if Luo Yu agreed, she could tell the second elder now.

Now it's okay, my grandparents must think that Luo Yu is just an idler, who doesn't learn and can't do anything! But think about it, this is also a fact, Qiao Xiangxue is depressed.

"That's it, hehe......" Lin Xitai's pupils shrank slightly, and he smiled reluctantly.

"Listen to Su Teng's nephew, Yu'er has a lot of ability, you old man, don't worry about it. ”

Grandmother Sophie hurriedly resolved the embarrassment, she was not only Qiao Xiangxue's grandmother, but also Su Teng's aunt.

On the phone, she listened to this nephew describe Luo Yu as the golden dragon among the people in an extremely awe-inspiring tone, and the Qiao family recruited Luo Yu as a son-in-law, and did not suffer any losses, but earned them.

But what is the specific situation, the nephew hesitated again, and did not say why.

In fact, it was not that Su Teng deliberately concealed it, but the previous Jianghuai incident involved a lot of confidential work, and Su Teng was not easy to leak.

After lunch, the second elder took the two of them to walk around the mid-level villa for a while, and then his grandfather Lin Xitai began to look at his watch frequently intentionally or unintentionally.

"Grandpa, do you have anything to do today?"

Qiao Xiangxue was observant.

"It's not that kind of entertainment in the society, our old couple, both retired, and there are people who bother us all day long, and we usually push it if we can, but today's afternoon tea bureau, I have to have a drink. ”

Sophie complained with some embarrassment.

"It turns out that the British prince and the envoy are coming to visit, so you two elders should hurry up and receive us, and you don't need to greet us." Qiao Xiangxue said hurriedly.

Lin Xitai groaned slightly, and said seriously:

"Well, it's rare for you two to come over, so let's go to have a cup of tea with our two elders. ”

Sophie smiled kindly: "That's right, Xiangxue is now doing her own business, getting to know Prince Bertas, and in the future, the products will enter the European market, so she can take care of it." ”

It can be seen that the second elder loves Qiao Xiangxue very much, and he actually has the heart to connect her with connections of the British royal family.

Qiao Xiangxue hesitated and nodded: "Okay, then you two elders go first, let's go and change our clothes." ”

The second elder has this intention, and she can't shirk it, but Qiao Xiangxue knows that when meeting with a figure of Prince Bertas's level, their current clothes are a bit casual, especially someone, at least they have to get a formal suit.

The second elder left an address for the two of them, and went to the meeting first.

Qiao Xiangxue pulled Luo Yu and went straight to the clothing store in the high-end store on Hong Kong Island.

In the end, she carefully selected and chose a Breony suit for Luo Yu.

"I'll see you later...... Forget it, you can do it, just don't embarrass your grandparents.

When she tied Luo Yu's bow tie with her own hands, she wanted to popularize the basic communication etiquette of the British high society with Luo Yu, but after thinking about it, she swallowed it back.

She knew that it was useless to say it, and someone would definitely not take it seriously.

Luo Yu looked at this cold beauty taking care of her clothes, serious and focused, breathing after breathing, and there were slight ripples in her heart, this feeling was really a bit strange.
