Chapter 807: French Guy Titrin
Riding a bicycle to walk back, Chen Wen took another route, anyway, the general direction would not be wrong. Chen Wen has a very big advantage, he has a natural acuity for orientation and geographical indications.
Passing by a street corner, Chen Wen was thirsty.
This time he went abroad, he didn't bring a kettle. Su Qianqian bought a thermos cup from the 80s for him, and the cup was left in the attic by Chen Wen without falling.
Seeing a small shop at the corner of the street, Chen Wen locked the mountain bike out and went into the store to buy water.
A mini supermarket of more than 30 square meters, several rows of shelves are placed with goods. There was a woman in her 30s sitting at the counter, looking like an East Asian face.
In front of the counter, a white guy is holding a few items, and the woman at the counter is counting the price with a calculator. After the price was calculated, the woman held the calculator and asked the white guy to look at the screen by himself.
The white guy said in French, "No, no, no, I think you've miscalculated, you should recalculate." ”
The woman said in Chinese, "I'm sorry, I don't know French, I don't know what you're talking about." ”
After saying that, the woman took out a cardboard from her feet, on which was written in French: I don't understand French.
The white guy reluctantly pressed it with his calculator, and the result was a few tenths of a franc more than the woman's.
The guy said: "I feel that you should be undercounting the money, I don't want to take advantage." ”
The woman added, "I really don't know French. ”
Chen Wen stepped forward and explained to the white guy in French.
The guy said: "I just mentally calculated the total price, and I feel that this woman has undercalculated the price." ”
Chen Wen said: "You are an honest Frenchman. ”
The guy said, "Thank you!"
Chen Wen asked: "I heard that you French people are very poor in arithmetic, why are you so good at it?"
The guy smiled slightly: "I studied mathematics." ”
Chen Wen asked: "Are you a student at the 13 universities in Paris, or at the University of Versailles?"
The guy said: "The second year of the Department of Mathematics of the Faculty of Science of the University of Versailles. ”
Chen Wen was pleasantly surprised to meet an alumnus and immediately introduced himself: "I am a first-year student in the Faculty of Arts of the University of Versailles. ”
At this time, the woman at the counter held up the calculator and touched the white guy's arm.
The third-year math student immediately paid for it. Chen Wen took two bottles of mineral water and paid the woman 5 francs.
Chen Wen said in Chinese: "I have explained to him the misunderstanding between the two of you just now, you have counted a few cents less, and the guy does not take advantage of you and insists on paying the original price." ”
The woman said repeatedly: "Thank you, it's better to be a compatriot!"
Chen Wen and the white guy came out of the small store and threw a bottle of mineral water to it
He, the guy was not polite, and took it.
The two introduced each other's names, the young man's name was Titrin, from Marseille, France, and he was in the second year of mathematics at the University of Versailles.
Classes for local students in France have already started at the end of August, so Titling is a real second-year college student.
Titlin's honest style of not taking advantage of small advantages won Chen Wen's favor. And Titling showed his character when dealing with the Chinese people, which is even more cute in Chen Wen's opinion.
Chen Wen took the initiative to exchange addresses and phone numbers with Titling.
Chen Wen and Titling rode their respective bicycles, and Titling said goodbye and pedaled away first.
Suddenly, a woman's voice came from behind him: "That gentleman, please stay." ”
Chen Wen looked back and saw that it was the woman from the shop just now, so he asked, "What's the matter?"
The woman asked, "Are you from Shanghai?"
Chen Wen smiled: "Do I speak with a Shanghai accent?"
The woman hurriedly waved her hand: "No, I seem to have seen you." ”
Chen Wen asked, "Where have you seen me?"
The woman said, "I saw you at the consulate and we did the visa interview on the same day. ”
Chen Wen had no impression of this woman's face, but what she said was reasonable, on the day of Chen Wen's interview, there were indeed a lot of people studying abroad, visiting relatives, and reuniting on visas.
Since this woman can recognize Chen Wen, it should be.
Chen Wen talked with her for a while and learned that the woman's surname was Wang, and her husband used to be a student on public assignment, and she had obtained legal status not long ago, and she came to France to reunite with her husband.
The woman's husband opened up this small shop, the house is his husband's, it is located on the street at an intersection, and the location is quite good. The house is two-storey, she and her husband live on the second floor, and the first floor is used to open a shop.
Nearby is the Palace of Versailles, the house is on the edge of a villa complex, and there is a good daily flow of people, all kinds of people can buy drinks and snacks at hand.
Chen Wen took a closer look at the geographical location and appearance of the house, and then recalled his observation of the environment by riding a bicycle all the way, and suddenly felt that this woman's husband was very powerful.
A public student studying in France, stranded and not returning to China, also got a legal status in France, and bought such a good property. This is definitely not something that ordinary people can do.
There is no comparison and no harm, Ou Kelan's father didn't do it in the United States!
Chen Wen felt that he should get to know this woman's husband another day and see what the cow man looked like.
The woman said that today her husband went to buy the goods, and she looked at the store by herself. She doesn't know French, and she struggles to do things. The woman said that it was fortunate that Chen Wen helped explain it clearly today, otherwise she would have lost a few cents and francs.
Chen Wen said: "That guy just now is my school
Friend, he is very upright and will not take advantage of you. ”
The woman smiled and said, "Anyway, thank you for today!
Leaving the store, Chen Wen rode on his bicycle and remembered Ou Kelan's parents. The two are in their 40s, and the woman surnamed Wang is in her 30s, although there is a difference in age, but they are both left-behind wives who went abroad to join their husbands.
Ou Kelan's parents are black households, and the woman surnamed Wang and her husband are legal. No matter what their identity is, the husband and wife can come together through thousands of mountains and rivers, and this is the most important thing.
......
Chen Wen rode around for a while, looked at his watch and pinched the time to return to the shared house.
At half past eleven, Xie Tingting and Xie Tingting returned home holding hands.
Chen Wen had already prepared the trimmings, the rice had already been cooked, and he immediately began to make fried rice.
Kim Woo Jin and Nguyen Thi Huong were not at home, and the three of them could happily chat in Chinese. Of course, it was actually the two chatting happily, because Xie Tingting didn't talk much.
Xie Tiantian went to the kitchen and accompanied Chen Wen.
Three plates of ham and snow bean egg fried rice were served, and the last cucumber in the refrigerator was also made cold by Chen Wen.
fulfilled his promise, Chen Wen didn't eat a cucumber at all.
Xie Tiantian couldn't bear it, and persuaded Chen Wen to take a bite too.
Chen Wen said: "I haven't suffered enough foreign crimes, there is enough Chinese taste in my mouth, and when I can't stand it anymore in the future, I will eat cucumbers again." Eat both of you, and leave me alone. ”
Xie Tingting said: "I love to eat or not, I don't know the hearts of good people!"
Xie Tiantian said: "Sister, don't say that, Chen Wen deliberately let us eat." ”
Xie Tingting glared at her sister: "You are starting to look at outsiders." ”
Xie Tiantian said: "Where is it! Don't talk nonsense!"
Chen Wen was happy for a while, with no expression on his face, quietly admiring the twin sisters' bickering.
After eating, Xie Tingting went upstairs and Xie Tiantian washed the dishes.
Chen Wen made fried rice just now, and Xie Tiantian accompanied him. This little girl will work, and Chen Wen is embarrassed to run away, so he accompanies him in the kitchen to gossip.
Xie Tiantian asked, "You really don't come back to stay at night?"
Chen Wen said: "Don't come back." ”
Xie Tiantian asked again: "Then where do you live?"
Chen Wen said: "Where my friend is arranged, I will live there, most likely it is a motel." ”
Xie Tiantian said: "You can't come back after you receive your girlfriend!"
Chen Wen said with a smile: "That ground picks up the old horse, you saw it on the day I checked in." Do you know where I stayed for the first night, in the southeastern suburbs of Paris, more than 60 kilometers from us? I want to come back tonight, but I don't have a car!"
