Chapter 45: The Dragon and the Phoenix in This Man
Lu Xingyao and Luo Huilan followed the footsteps of Mr. Tang and Tang Hualien, and went upstairs together, and saw a small living room similar to a well-off home, which was neatly cleaned up. The 56-inch LCD TV hanging in the small living room should be something that Luo Huilan and Luo Xinyan dare not hope for in their lives!
Their house is surrounded by walls, and they don't even have beds, and they usually make mattresses and sleep on the floor. But the strange thing is that Lu Xingyao, who is usually used to sleeping in a big bed, quickly adapted to it.
"Here, here! Everyone, sit casually! It's all home-cooked side dishes, I hope you don't mind! Just treat it like your own home! Mrs. Tong warmly entertained the two mothers and daughters at the long table in the dining room.
The two mothers and daughters sat side by side, looking at the dishes on this table, and suddenly couldn't help but glance at each other.
This family is really modest, a table of big fish and meat, shrimp and crabs, and ginseng and chicken soup, how can it be a home-cooked side dish!
Mr. Tang also sat down and said, "Come on, come on, you're welcome, everyone eat, eat." ”
Everyone began to eat quietly.
During the banquet, Lu Xingyao peeled a shrimp for Luo Huilan, and then put it in her dishes, everything was so natural, but it made Mrs. Tang's eyes red, and she immediately bumped Tang Hualien next to her with her elbow, and her eyes motioned for her to peel a shrimp for herself, and Tang Hualien had to do it reluctantly.
Mrs. Tang also ate the shrimp peeled by others, and she was in a happy mood, and hurriedly asked Lu Xingyao: "By the way, Xinyan, I heard that your college entrance examination results are not satisfactory, right?" I happen to have a tutor I know, who also tutored us in Hualien, our Hualien college entrance examination score is good, and we can also take two books, how about it? Why don't you give it a try? ”
Lu Xingyao tried hard to analyze what she meant by this in his mind.
This Mrs. Tang looks quite clean on the outside, but she doesn't want to have a tea-like personality. Since she peeled shrimp, Lu Xingyao has already noticed that she has a self-confident character that she doesn't want to lose, how could she be so good at introducing a cram teacher to Luo Xinyan!
probably just wants to show off that his granddaughter Hualien has a good score in the college entrance examination and can go to the second book.
Lu Xingyao has been dealing with the upper class since he was a child, how come he hasn't encountered such a small thing!
She replied without changing her face: "Thank you Mrs. Tang for your kindness, this time I want to try to take a test." ”
"......" is a short sentence, not to offend people, but it also stepped on the other party.
Mr. Tang and Luo Huilan both showed incredible eyes together. After all, how difficult it is to take a book, but you can't take the test if you want to!
Luo Huilan leaned towards Lu Xingyao's side and whispered, "Hey, something...... Don't blow it too much! Mom didn't want you to take a test, as long as you can go to college, you can go anywhere. ”
Lu Xingyao whispered: "Since you can enter anywhere, why can't it be one?" ”
Luo Huilan "......", and she can't refute it at all, just because what she said makes sense.
Mr. Tang laughed, "Sure enough, he is a child who has won the Heroic Citizen Award, and he is ambitious!" The future is promising! ”
Lu Xingyao responded to Mr. Tang's praise with a smile, but there were still people at the dinner table who were sour.
Mrs. Tang: "Oh Xinyan, what your mother said is also right, it's not so easy to get in!" Don't aim too high, or you'll fall off, and it will hurt. ”
Lu Xingyao"? This lady is clearly looking down on people, and she doesn't hide it.
Luo Huilan suddenly said: "It's okay, let her make her own decisions in the child's world!" No matter how high she wants to go, don't be afraid, if she tries hard, her mother will catch her when she falls. ”
Lu Xingyao "......", who does this sentence want to move to death! I don't cherish having such a good mother, if I have the opportunity to meet Luo Xinyan, a rebellious girl, in the future, she will definitely teach her a good lesson!
Mrs. Tang pursed her lips and said: "That's not what you say, if you want to fly high, you have to see where your ability is, right?" It's not logical to set such a high goal for her without authorization! It's better to be a human being, right? Hualien. ”
As she spoke, she sandwiched a mushroom into a bowl in Hualien.
Hualien was eating shiitake mushrooms, her eyes fell on Lu Xingyao's shabby appearance intentionally or unintentionally, and her face was full of smiles. "Well, grandma is right!"
This woman looks down on people so much!
Luo Huilan's hands clenched under the table in anger, and the green roots appeared. Lu Xingyao hurriedly held her hand and shook his head at her with a smile, as if to say: It's okay, I don't care.
These lip probs and argues, winning or losing is not beneficial to anyone, so why waste your energy! As the saying goes, there is a natural fragrance of musk, and a truly powerful person will not waste his strength and argue with others with his mouth.
Under the various words of Mrs. Tang and Tang Hualien, this meal was finally eaten in a depressing way.
In order to express her gratitude to Mr. Tang for coming these days, Luo Huilan has always insisted on washing dishes and dishes for their family.
And Lu Xingyao was led by Mr. Tang Lao and followed him to the back store warehouse to learn how to run a small grocery store.
In other words, although Lu Xingyao used to manage a large construction group, he had never tried to run a small grocery store!
Dajian has strong financial resources and a large number of personnel, and the management only needs to do its best to manage people. But such a small grocery store has only one or two small clerks at most, and many things still have to be handled by themselves, which is a thankless task.
"Usually, we have to record the materials we receive in that book, and then arrange the ......goods," Mr. Tang patiently introduced Lu Xingyao, and suddenly Tang Hualien shouted in a loud voice, "Grandpa!" Then he trotted to Mr. Tang's side.
Lu Xing looked at Mrs. Tang who was behind her, and couldn't help but recite the Great Compassion Mantra several times in his heart.
Don't you look down on other people's good things?!
“Hey,Doyouhavesomedriedseaweedhere? AndIwouldliketohavesomedressingformysalad。 ”
At this time, two backpacking men came to the store. They have blonde hair, a pale complexion, ocean-blue pupils, and a height of 180.
Mrs. Tang, who was in the storefront, couldn't understand what they were saying, so she hurriedly shouted the name of "Hualien" to the warehouse.
No matter how Tang Hualien says it, she is a person who has been admitted to the second book, this kind of thing should be able to be solved, right?
However, after she came out, she talked to the two foreigners in the store for a long time, but they didn't seem to be able to reach a consensus.
Mr. Tang couldn't help but sigh, "Hey, recently the country has opened up for tourism, and we have a lot of tourists here." I don't understand, they want to buy things, why don't they go to those high-end shopping malls in front of them! I just came to a small shop like mine, not to find fault! ”
"I don't think it's fault-finding! Maybe I really couldn't find what I wanted to buy, so I had to come here to look for it. I'll check it out! Lu Xingyao saw it, and hurriedly went out to help.
After all, her university was completed in Cambridge, England, and ordinary communication should not be completely unfamiliar.
“Hi,MayIhelpyou?” (Hello, is there anything I can do to help you?) )
Lu Xingyao stepped forward and spoke to them politely first.
When they heard her English accent that was even more standard than Tang Hualien's, they immediately danced with joy! “Ohgreat! Finally! YouknowEnglish.Canyouhelpmeask,isherehasanyseaweed? Ihavelookingformanyshopsnearbybutcan’tgetany.”
(Oh, that's great!) Finally! You know English! Can you help me ask, is there any edible seagrass here? I looked for a lot of shops around here, but I couldn't find one. )
"Hey, Xinyan, do you know what they're talking about?" At this time, Tang Hualien leaned towards Lu Xingyao, pulled her sleeve, and asked in a low voice.
Lu Xingyao "......", a little unbelievable.
Didn't she get into the second book, and she couldn't even understand this?
"They're looking for edible seaweed, do you have any of them?"
Tang Hualien and Mrs. Tang suddenly realized together, "Ah, it turns out that they are looking for this!" Yes, but what the hell, is this what they're looking for? ”
As they spoke, they took out a packet of dried seaweed from the store.
Lu Xingyao took the bag of seaweed and hurriedly explained to them: "Wedon'thavefreshseaweedhere, butwehaveproceeseddriedseaweed, canyouallacceptit?" It’sverysimple,justputinwaterwilldo.”
(We don't have fresh seagrass, but we do have processed air-dried seagrass, are you willing to accept it?) It's easy to handle, just put it in the water. )
The two foreigners listened, nodded repeatedly, then took out their wallets and said, "Alright, IthinkI'mgonnatakethis. Ohyea,canIhavesomedressingforsaladtoo? ”
“dress? no,wedon’tselldresshere!” Perhaps, it has always been Lu Xingyao who has the upper hand, Tang Lianhua stepped forward excitedly and squeezed Lu Xingyao to the back.
However, after she had said this, the two foreigners frowned and shook their heads!
Lu Xingyao hurriedly walked out from behind, took a salad dressing to them, and said in standard English: "Of course there is, do you still need anything?" ”
She deliberately glared at Tang Lianhua as she spoke, and with a speed that no one could see, she changed her expression and smiled at the guest in front of her.
This girl, don't you even understand that Dressingofsalad refers to salad dressing? I thought it was a dress dress...... There is no one with this kind of IQ.
So, with a fluent English, Lu Xingyao and the two foreign tourists went back and forth, and finally they bought not only two packets of seafood, but also a can of salad dressing, some potatoes and garlic.
After checking out, Lu Xingyao still did not forget to politely say to them: "Haveaniceday, pleasevisitagain."
(Have a nice day, thank you for coming, please come back next time.) )
The two foreigners were full of praise for her, and before leaving, they pointed at Lu Xingyao to Mr. Tang, who seemed to be the boss of the store, and then gave a thumbs up.
What it means: You're lucky to be able to hire such good employees.
Mr. Tang's love for Lu Xingyao's child can be said to have increased more and more. Seeing that Luo Huilan had washed the dishes and came down from upstairs to wipe her hands, he grabbed her and didn't let go.
"Whelan, what a good daughter you are! Not only is his personality good, but he is also good at English! Take a one, no problem at all! I think yes, you can rush! Once you've arrived, you're relaxed! ”
Luo Huilan"? He looked at Lu Xingyao on the side in surprise. She doesn't know when her daughter will speak English!
Lu Xingyao shrugged at her as he pretended not to know.
Because Luo Huilan missed the last episode, she had no choice but to accept Mr. Tang's praise, "Hahaha, I hope to accept your words!" ”
"Absolutely! I'm at this age, and I've never looked at the wrong person! Your daughter, she is a dragon and phoenix among people, and she will definitely soar to the sky in the future! ”
Lu Xingyao and Luo Huilan laughed awkwardly together.
In other words, before Lu Xingyao became Luo Xinyan, he was already a dragon and phoenix among people! Do you think that anyone can be the daughter of Dajianye Group? !
Mrs. Tang hugged her hands on the side and said, "Oh~ Really? Dragons and phoenixes among people! Whelan, if that's the case, then you're really going to return to your senses! In the mountains and forests behind our house, there is a very effective mountain fairy! Our Hualien pre-exam was actually not very good before, and after worshipping, we were immediately admitted to the second book. Otherwise, you can go home later and take a look. ”
As soon as Luo Huilan heard that there was such a miracle immortal, she immediately became interested, "Really? Where? ”
She thought in her heart that she couldn't rely on her own daughter alone, and occasionally she had to rely on these immortals.
"It's in the forest behind us, enter the entrance, turn left, and until you reach the end, you will see a well. You open the well, say a wish and close it, and it will definitely come true. ”
"Can you believe this? I've heard that if you ask the gods for something, you have to pay it back. "It's like Lu Xingyao's deal with the Nightmare God.
Lu Xingyao didn't believe that this Mrs. Tang would really show their mother and daughter a clear way!
Mrs. Tang replied: "Yes, I have to pay it back, and after getting good grades, I will go back and cook a pot of good vegetables and meat for it." I heard that this fairy is particularly fond of food. ”
Lu Xingyao "......", didn't Nan Yi just say that gods don't eat?!
She was thinking about how to open her mouth to expose this uneasy and kind-hearted woman, but Luo Huilan on the side suddenly grabbed her hand and thanked Mrs. Tang gratefully, "That, thank you, Madame!" We'll go back later, and we'll go over and have a look! ”
Lu Xingyao"? ”
Luo Huilan said to her, "Let's just go and take a look!" Don't worship! Anyway, just go over and take a look, don't ask for anything, and you won't lose anything! ”
Is there really nothing to lose?
Lu Xingyao looked at the electronic watch he was wearing, and suddenly felt very uneasy in his heart.
