Chapter 0038: Manor

Wednesday, 4 February 2004

Before arriving at Boston Logan Airport, you need to transfer to Guangzhou Baiyun Airport, land at Los Angeles International Airport on the west coast of the United States, and then transfer to the next flight to reach Boston on the east coast. The whole journey lasted for 40 hours, and although Zhang Ruirui did not feel tired, her frequent waiting for transfers also made her complain.

While waiting for the plane in Los Angeles, Zhang Ruirui said: "This turn is really annoying and annoying. Isn't it just more than 10,000 kilometers? I'll take you to the sky in a few minutes. ”

Because the distance is too far, Wang Shen has no concept, he only knows that it is more than 1,200 kilometers from Beijing to Daxinganling, and every time Zhang Qingqing takes him to the air for a one-way trip, the time is about 40 seconds. Then he asked, "Aunt Rui, how long will it take for you to go from Beijing to Daxinganling?" ”

Zhang Ruirui didn't want to answer: "Thirty seconds." ”

Wang Shen opened his mouth wide in surprise and said, "My aunt will take more than forty seconds, can you really be so much faster than her?" ”

Zhang Ruirui smiled: "How can your aunt be faster than me?" She chased me every day since I was a child, you go back and ask her if I was caught by her once? ”

Wang Shen was skeptical, but nodded anyway. In his heart, Zhang Qingqing has always been the most powerful, and he has been looking up to since he was sensible. Although he had always known that Zhang Ruirui's cultivation was higher than hers, he confirmed for the first time today that he still didn't want to believe that Zhang Qingqing was inferior to others from the bottom of his heart. Xin said: "I really want to ask my aunt when I go back, Aunt Rui is half-truthful and half-false, maybe she brags in front of me." ”

After a 40-hour trek, we finally arrived at Boston's Logan Airport. The group took a bus to Cambridge and stopped in front of a red-brick complex.

The team leader used the microphone on the car and said, "This is the campus of Harvard University, but we won't visit it today." In order to leave time for everyone to reverse the jet lag, our trip will officially start the day after tomorrow, today and tomorrow please have a good rest in the hotel you booked. I would like to talk about the precautions of jet lag: first, get more sun, because studies have shown that light can help people better adjust their biological clock. Second, eat more protein for breakfast, which can help keep you awake. Eating helps the body adjust to the new rhythm as quickly as possible. Third, if you do feel sleepy during the day, get some sleep, but not more than an hour. Try to save up all your sleep until you sleep together at night, which will help you adjust to jet lag faster. At half past eight in the morning the day after tomorrow, we meet here. ”

Next, the bus sent everyone to their reserved hotels, and before parting, the team leader instructed one by one: "Everyone must remember the time, and we will see you at the entrance of Harvard at half past eight in the morning of the day after tomorrow." ”

The bus drove across the Charles River and stopped in front of a magnificent hotel. The name of the hotel is Boston/Cambridge Hilton, which Meng Li recommended to Wang Shen to book. Meng Li said that this hotel was newly opened last year, the design is very trendy, the decoration is very luxurious, 1,400 yuan a night. Although Zhang Qingqing could afford it, she didn't want Wang Shen to develop the habit of extravagance and luxury, and she didn't want to book him such an expensive hotel, but it was not easy to let him go out to play once, and this time Zhang Ruirui accompanied her, so she agreed to book him a Cambridge Hilton Hotel.

Wang Shen and Zhang Ruirui naturally did not have any jet lag, they walked into the hotel lobby Wang Shen was looking up and looking around, Meng Li came over and said with a smile: "Let's go to our house tonight, not far from here, at the foot of the hill on the outskirts of Lexington, my father arranged a bonfire at night."

Ty, tomorrow I will take the hounds into the mountains to hunt wild deer. He looked at Zhang Ruirui with a smile and said, "You must come with you!" Wang Shen kissed Zhang Ruirui in front of her, and this matter seemed to have disappeared. Meng Li's mother stood behind her and looked at Wang Shen with a smile, although this woman was not as good as her daughter, but she was dressed gracefully and knew that she was a broad wife.

Wang Shen looked at Zhang Ruirui pleadingly, and Zhang Ruirui asked, "Do you really want to go?" The money from the hotel is non-refundable. ”

Wang Shen replied: "Let's leave all our luggage here, just stay in the hotel and just go out to play." ”

Zhang Ruirui smiled and leaned down and said to Meng Li with a smile: "Classmate Meng, how long does it take to get to your country house?" ”

Meng Li said: "It's very close!" Less than 15 km. It's a 20 minute drive. We'll be back the morning after tomorrow or tomorrow night, and your hotel won't have to be returned. ”

Zhang Ruirui asked with a smile: "There are more than 30 people from your school, right?" Then why do you only invite Wang Shen and not other students? ”

Meng Li's little face suddenly turned red, she avoided Zhang Ruirui's gaze and said, "I, I am at the same table as Wang Shen, and he usually takes good care of me." So, I only invite him and don't want anyone else. ”

Wang Shen smiled: "Who is at the same table with you?" ”

Zhang Ruirui slapped him on the neck and scolded with a smile: "What are you talking about, girl." ”

The girl in the heart of the Taoist family obviously likes you, and she tries her best to make up nonsense to please you, but you can do it and debunk it in person.

A man really needs to learn too many things from birth to how to care for a woman that he can thoroughly understand, and many men are still fools until they die of old age, so a man who really knows how to care for a woman is really rare.

Meng Li glanced at Wang Shen and said, "My father has already sent someone to pick us up, you only need to bring one or two changes of clothes, and the luggage will be in the guest room." "She spoke like an adult at a young age, and her assignments were clearly organized, like a seedling of a qualified heir to a chaebol.

Entering the guest room, Wang Shen thanked Zhang Ruirui for her kindness, if she didn't agree, Meng Li's family's fun manor, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to go to anything.

Zhang Ruirui asked with a smile: "If it were your aunt, wouldn't she agree to you going at all?" ”

Wang Shen nodded honestly.

Meng Li's big house is close to the mountains and rivers, and the east side of the house is a big lake, although it is winter, the lake is not frozen, and the lake surface is like a mirror, which makes people feel refreshed and happy. To the west is a vast mountain with dense forests and lush forests, and you can imagine how many wild animals live in them.

Before the car drove into the yard, Wang Shen saw through the window of the car many people of all kinds holding plastic wine glasses or standing or sitting and laughing, workers and waiters in and out of the yard and house.

Meng Li and her mother's car stopped on the road in the yard, Meng Li and her mother walked out one after another, a well-dressed middle-aged man stepped forward and kissed her mother, and then picked up Meng Li and turned around a few times very affectionately. Then the man saw Wang Shen and Zhang Ruirui getting out of the car behind, so he took a few steps to greet Zhang Ruirui and said, "Hello, my name is Meng Gang." You must be Wang Shen's aunt, right? I often hear my daughter mention you. ”

Zhang Ruirui didn't explain, just smiled and stretched out her hand to shake him.

The man shook hands with Wang Shen warmly, and then led them towards the house, Meng Li walked beside Wang Shen, bowing his head and looking shy, but very close, almost touching Wang Shen's sleeve.

This house is huge, and the big house that Wang Shen has seen is only the manor villa of Priest Du and his wife in Shunyi, Beijing, which can be compared with the house of Meng Li's father. The house has three floors, the first floor is a 20-meter-square atrium, and workers are hanging lanterns on the walls.

Wang Shen asked, "Uncle, is it a holiday today?" ”

Meng Gang said with a smile: "Today is not a festival, if it is a festival, it is a good day for my daughter to come to see me." Then he burst out laughing.

Meng Li said angrily to his father: "I just said that I want to get a Pa."

Ty, who made you so big! ”

Meng Gang said: "Just think that between New Year's Day and the Spring Festival, let's have another Christmas!" As long as my good daughter is happy, get a Pa

What is ty? ”

In the evening, the large courtyard is lit up with warm lights, and the original fountain pool in the center of the courtyard is temporarily removed and replaced by a three-meter-high firewood pile.

The workers sprinkled some gasoline under the pyre, and with a little match, the orange-yellow flame rose into the sky, and the people in the courtyard cheered.

Winters in Massachusetts are also very cold, but Americans love to be outdoors, drinking and chatting around a campfire, and more people are dancing to the music

Ty was really lively.

Wang Shen followed Meng Li to look at the front and back of the big house, inside and out, and the two came to the bar, where Meng Li ordered the bartender to make two glasses of orange juice, and the two walked to the edge of the bonfire while drinking. At this time, another waiter brought a plate of turkey and stopped beside Meng Li, bowing slightly. Meng Li ordered the man to cut off the turkey leg and give it to Wang Shen in English, and the waiter cut a turkey leg and put it in a cardboard box and handed it to Wang Shen.

Meng Li said: "Where is your aunt?" ”

Wang Shen said while nibbling on the chicken legs: "Since she entered the hospital, American men have been accosting her. You don't know where to date someone right now, do you? ”

Meng Li smiled: "Americans are very open, she is so beautiful, it is normal to be accosted." ”

Since Zhang Ruirui got out of the car, there have indeed been American men who have come forward to show her goodwill, but no matter how tall or ugly the person who comes, she always smiles at her phoenix eyes. Her English was good enough for this kind of communication, but she didn't say a word the whole time. In this way, those men thought that she couldn't speak English, and seeing her charming face and bewitching figure, a large group of American men's hearts were tickled and scratched, and they lingered behind Zhang Ruirui.

However, among the many accosters, one of the most polite and handsome young men caught Zhang Ruirui's attention, this person had short brown hair, a cotton jacket and khakis, and light blue eyes were very charming. But Zhang Ruirui noticed that he was not because he was handsome, but because as soon as Zhang Ruirui entered the manor, she noticed that this person had magical cultivation, probably under the same magic as the distraction period. He obviously also noticed Zhang Ruirui's difference and stepped forward to talk, but Zhang Ruirui just smiled and stopped talking, and his cultivation was too much higher than him, and Zhang Ruirui had no way of judging what kind of cultivation he was.
