The so-called konghou, traditional Chinese medicine...promotion of intangible cultural heritage is all to gild oneself.
Then, with these characters, he won the love of everyone including Aunt Ye and Grandpa Ye.
The older generation simply refuses to admit that they have been crushed by the tide of time and that those old things should not be kept but discarded.
We should get in touch with newer and more advanced things so that we can stay at the forefront of the times...
Haitong dislikes people like Qiao Nian from the bottom of her heart.
certainly.
There is another important reason that she is unwilling to admit.
Qiao Nian took away her place in the Ye family!
Originally, Aunt Ye and Grandpa Ye liked me the most and were always willing to coax me. But today, when Jiang Li was talking about me, Aunt Ye obviously stood on Jiang Li's side to smooth things over.
This was unacceptable to her.
"She comes from a humble family, so she should be secretly happy to be able to marry into the Ye family, but she is not like that. She is even more arrogant as if the Ye family has married her."
Elena knew a little about Qiao Nian's background and sneered at her indignant words.
Just because Qiao Nian is sun.
She can't be considered to be marrying up to the Ye family.
That's an illegal area.
The Red Alliance, the second largest force in the illegal zone, is not an exaggeration. Even if it cannot compare to the Ye family in terms of its deep roots in Beijing, it is still no ordinary force.
If Haitong were to compare with Qiao Nian in terms of background, she might not be able to compare with others.
But how could Elena tell this to her classmates
She was just an ordinary international student who came to Beijing with her classmates to play. Of course, she couldn't know the places outside the five continents. "According to what you said, she is a person who knows how to package herself." Elena gently comforted her: "You know she is such a person, just don't provoke her when you meet her next time."
Haitong's expression suddenly fell, and her mood dropped visibly, feeling very bad.
She was still upset that Ye Lan didn't speak up for her today, and she never expected that after returning from her three years of studying abroad, there was no place for her in the Ye family.
All these made her feel as if her heart was being gripped by an invisible giant hand, squeezing it so hard that she couldn't breathe and felt like she was about to suffocate.
She didn't want to show her humiliating side in front of the person she admired, so she forced herself to smile at Elena.
"I'm fine."
"I'll take you somewhere else later."
"I want to concentrate on writing my thesis in the hotel this afternoon." Elena made up an excuse to get rid of her, not wanting to waste time with her.
Haitong misunderstood and thought that her friend had been wronged at noon, which caused Elena to not want to go out with her anymore.
She assured him, "There will be a concert tonight, a classical musical. Aren't you interested in the history of Country Z? Tonight's Song of Everlasting Regret is adapted from history. I guarantee it will be different from the musicals you've watched outside before."
"The tickets are limited this time, so I asked someone to reserve VIP tickets for me."
She pestered Elena and shook her arm: "Go ahead. I promise you won't regret it!"
Elena resisted the urge to pull her away, suppressed her jumping eyebrows, and in order to prevent her from getting close to her, she patiently agreed: "Well, let's go and take a look."
"Very good!"
As expected, Haitong let go happily with a bright smile.
She didn't notice at all that the moment Elena let go of her hand, she moved half an inch to the side, keeping a suitable distance from her to prevent her from getting closer and making any intimate moves.
In fact, Elena didn’t care whether Ye Lan liked her or not, and she didn’t even care about Ye Maoshan’s attitude and impression of her.
