Chapter 57: Three-dollar milk tea
Looking at Gu Qinghui, who was a little troubled by the family's rich affairs, Mai Wenxiang felt entangled in her heart. There are also people who are often unhappy because they have money at home, what the hell!
In fact, this is not to blame Gu Qinghui, he has a superior family, and his circle from childhood to adulthood is different from everyone else, and some children from ordinary families who hate the rich naturally look at him unpleasantly, so it is inevitable that he will be soured by people occasionally. For this reason, Gu Qinghui is not less sulky.
When he was a child, he went to the court to play by himself and watched a few of his peers play basketball in a decent way, and he became interested in basketball and wanted to play with them. But others rejected him, saying that he was a wealthy son, a golden-branched and jade-like son, and he didn't dare to play with him, for fear that he wouldn't be able to afford it if he bumped into him.
Just because of this kind of innocuous thing when he was young, Gu Qinghui gradually felt distressed because of the superior conditions at home. He sometimes envies those ordinary children, who don't need to be followed when they go out, they can make a lot of friends, and they can do whatever they want. Like him, eating a piece of ice cream and drinking a sip of Coke, he will also be stared at by the nanny.
Because he didn't have friends when he was a child, Gu Qinghui spent a very lonely childhood. Every day, he is accompanied only by a luxurious piano and a few basketball players dressed as bodyguards. He wanted to go to the court outside the villa to play ball, and play unscrupulously like those ordinary children, but it never came to fruition.
Later, I gradually went to middle school and met my parents' friends at home, and the children of my parents' friends were naturally rich. So, the children of the rich and the children of the rich came together, and he gradually became friends, which are now several players on his basketball team.
Later, when he went to college, because of his good looks, there were many little girls who came to talk to him, and slowly he also had a few ordinary friends. But they are all girls, and they are just reluctant friends, because after getting along for a while, Gu Qinghui found that these girls actually wanted to possess him...
Looking at Mai Wenxiang, who was staring at the other side with big eyes and a little angry, Gu Qinghui didn't understand why she was angry. But he thought that the pupils in this little girl's big eyes were really beautiful, black and slippery, like the black gems used to decorate the living room at home.
Perhaps knowing that what he said was a bit of a disguised pretense, Gu Qinghui scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Don't look at me like that, I'm just telling the truth." ”
"Heh..."Mai Wenxiang smiled weakly, speechless, and continued to bow her head and eat egg fried rice silently.
Mai Wenxiang ate by herself, and Gu Qinghui sat there looking at her blankly. The owner of the roadside stall looked at Gu Qinghui a few times, thinking to himself that this person didn't eat, what was he doing sitting here? But seeing that he had already changed into gorgeous clothes and was wearing a famous brand, he didn't dare to leave and drive him away.
After being silent for a while, Mai Wenxiang's face suddenly changed, and her shoulder twitched, accidentally choking. She hurriedly got up, ran to another stall selling milk tea by the stall, bought a cup of milk tea, and drank a few sips of milk tea before rushing the rice down her esophagus.
The atmosphere was a little awkward, looking at Mai Wenxiang who sat back with a cup of milk tea, Gu Qinghui asked tentatively, "Choking?"
Mai Wenxiang glared at him, and there were only a few bites of rice left on the plate, although he was already full, but in the spirit of wasting shame, Mai Wenxiang ate the remaining few bites.
Gu Qinghui stuck out his tongue and asked in a low voice, "What's your name?"
After eating the last few bites of rice, Mai Wenxiang glanced at Gu Qinghui and said rudely: "It's your business." ”
Gu Qinghui was embarrassed again, Mai Wenxiang didn't care about him, picked up the unfinished milk tea, and drank it again, looking very sweet.
"Is it delicious?" Gu Qinghui had nothing to say.
"Haven't you ever drunk it?" The displeased Mai Wenxiang looked disgusted, and glared at Gu Qinghui again, but suddenly thought of what this guy just said Isn't it that the family has money, and said weakly: "Oh, yes, you son, you definitely don't drink this kind of thing." ”
After speaking, his eyes rolled around a few times, and he thought of an idea, so he said, "Sit here and don't move." Then I got up again and went to buy a cup of milk tea and came back.
"Here you go. Mai Wenxiang put the newly bought milk tea in front of Gu Qinghui.
"What are you doing?" Gu Qinghui looked suspicious.
"Haven't you ever drunk it? Mai Wenxiang raised her eyebrows.
Gu Qinghui smiled, looked at the cup of milk tea on the table, and hesitated, but finally picked it up, inserted a straw, and tried to take a sip. The milk tea is very sweet, taro-flavored, fragrant and sweet, and quickly fills the entire mouth after entering the mouth.
"Well, it's so sweet. Gu Qinghui couldn't help but praise, and then he also grunted.
Mai Wenxiang looked at Gu Qinghui like an idiot, pouting, not knowing what to say.
Gu Qinghui, who drank all the milk tea in a while, looked at the empty cup in his hand with unfinished eyes, and couldn't help asking, "It tastes so good, how much does it cost?"
"Three pieces. Mai Wenxiang spit out two words.
"Huh?" This price obviously surprised Gu Qinghui.
"What, it's expensive?" said Mai Wenxiang with a sneer.
Gu Qinghui shook his head again and again, "No, no, no, it's really cheap." ”
"Huh. Mai Wenxiang laughed lukewarmly again, and thought to herself, don't you don't eat the roadside stalls? The milk tea sold by the roadside stalls is not the same as the one you drink? Thinking of this, she despised Gu Qinghui fiercely in her heart.
Gu Qinghui, who was still smashing his mouth, had an endless aftertaste for the three yuan a cup of milk tea just now. "It's delicious, no, I've got to have another drink. As he spoke, he stood up and went to buy it, but he had a pocket and no money, so he sat down awkwardly.
"Why don't you go?" asked Mai Wenxiang.
"I don't have any money on me..."Gu Qinghui's face turned red, looking very embarrassed.
"Hehe!" Mai Wenxiang sneered again, looked at Gu Qinghui in front of him, and said sourly: "Don't you have money in your family?
"I just remembered that I didn't bring any money, only a bank card..."
Roadside stalls, you definitely can't swipe cards.
"You..." Mai Wenxiang's head was big for a while, but she still touched her pocket, took out three coins, and threw them to Gu Qinghui.
"What is this?" asked Gu Qinghui as he looked at the three pieces of steel.
"Money, take it to buy milk tea and drink it. ”
Gu Qinghui took the coin to his eyes and looked at it, and when he saw that there were flowers and Arabic numerals on it, he said, "This is a one-yuan coin!
"Damn!" Mai Wenxiang couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth, then stood up and turned to leave.
"Hey, why are you going, why are you leaving?" Gu Qinghui hurriedly got up to follow, turned his head to look at the milk tea stall, turned back and bought a cup of milk tea, and ran to keep up with Mai Wenxiang while drinking.
"Why did you leave all of a sudden?" asked Gu Qinghui, who was drinking milk tea, behind Mai Wenxiang.
"Back to where we stayed. ”
"You seem a little upset, huh?"
"Well, it's a little bit, it's the first time I've seen someone who hasn't even seen a dollar coin. ”
Gu Qinghui was embarrassed again, and explained: "I go out by swiping my card, and I haven't used cash, so I don't see much, and I haven't used a one-yuan coin at home..."
"That's why I'm angry!" Mai Wenxiang stood up, glared and shouted: "It's really different! A rich man's son who can't even use a single yuan coin, I actually invited him to drink milk tea, or two cups!"
"Hey, thank you. Gu Qinghui tasted the sweet milk tea and sincerely thanked Mai Wenxiang.
Mai Wenxiang turned around and left, Gu Qinghui followed again, and said in the back: "Where do you live, I'll send you." ”
"No, don't follow me, I don't want to see you. ”
"Then I'll give you back the six dollars?"
Mai Wenxiang stopped and sneered, "Okay." ”
Gu Qinghui was stunned for a moment and said, "Why don't I invite you to dinner another day, it can be regarded as you still invite me to drink milk tea." ”
"Hmph. With a cold snort, Mai Wenxiang no longer paid attention to Gu Qinghui.
Gu Qinghui also stopped, no longer following Mai Wenxiang who was walking forward, but watched her figure gradually walk away until she turned a corner and couldn't see. Lao Li slowly drove the car from behind, followed, stopped next to Gu Qinghui, opened the window, and looked at Gu Qinghui, who was stunned by the empty cup of milk tea in his hand.
"Young master, let's go, go home. Lao Li shouted.
Gu Qinghui came back to his senses, looked at the corner where Mai Wenxiang disappeared again, and suddenly had a little idea of wanting to follow, but after thinking about it, he still forgot it, then turned around and got into the car and went home. The empty cup of milk tea was carefully placed in the storage box on the car by him.
-------------------------------------
In Mu Haisen's shop, the three of them were sitting on the bench and discussing something, which was what Duanmu Shenjiu told him after Wu Hou came here today.
Duanmu Shenjiu said that he couldn't do anything if he was always so idle, and he had been raised by Mu Haisen and Wu Hou, which made him very uncomfortable with his strong personality, so he wanted to find a job, that is, to find a job.
When they first heard this, Wu Hou and Mu Haisen were taken aback. One thought to himself, Master is looking for a job? What can an ancient man who has been sleeping for thousands of years do in this era? Another person thinks to himself, how can the old ancestor go to work? Doesn't this show the incompetence of the head of the family?
But Duanmu Shenjiu's attitude was very resolute, saying that he had to find something to do, hoping to learn more about the current world and contact more people before the contradictions between himself and today's people in the rivers and lakes were completely stimulated.
The two of them couldn't resist Duanmu Shenjiu, so they agreed to this matter. But immediately the question arises again, what kind of work can Duanmu Shenjiu do?
The three of them had been discussing for nearly two hours, but they still hadn't come up with a job that was suitable for Duanmu Shenjiu. How can I communicate with customers when Duanmu Shenjiu, who doesn't speak very modernly? Go to a gas station to work as a gas attendant? What if Duanmu Shenjiu is unhappy one day, and his true anger explodes a little bit, and then he detonates the gas station? What if he goes to work as a car washer? Duanmu Shenjiu, who likes to wear clean clothes, is he willing to make himself dirty? To do sales? It is also a communication barrier.
Going to the mall to sell something? Or is it a communication barrier. If you don't know how to drive, do you have to get a driver's license? But Duanmu Shenjiu's ID card is fake.
All the work that the three of them could think of was ultimately untrue. Could it be to be a cleaner, sweep the streets, or pick up garbage? Wu Hou is terrifying when he thinks about it.
In the end, Mu Haisen said helplessly: "Otherwise, go to the factory, there is an intermediary over there who specializes in introducing work, go over there and ask?"
Wu Hou immediately agreed, and Duanmu Shenjiu also nodded in response.
