Chen Xuan thought Rong Yang was in a bad mood when Qin Shu threw his shoes at him. However, when they arrived at the airport, Mr. Rong still looked like a gentleman. Chen Xuan admired Rong Yang's self-cultivation even more.
It was the first time for Chen Xuan to take a plane. Her eyes were wide open and she looked around. Wei Yin saw her second sister-in-law looking around. It was also her first time to take a plane. She was shocked to see how big the plane was and couldn't help but take a few more glances.
After getting on the plane, Chen Xuan even switched seats with Wei Nian to sit by the window, and kept looking out.
Wei Yin was curious and asked in a low voice, "Second sister-in-law, what are you looking at?"
Chen Xuan whispered to Wei Yin, "Brother Anian told me last night that the plane can fly because there is a big rope tied to the bottom, just like flying a kite. Once it is released, it will fly. I want to see where the rope is."
Wei Yin whispered, "No way, second sister-in-law, I heard that airplanes can fly because of something called an engine."
The two sisters-in-law were whispering about whether the plane was launched like a kite, or whether it was launched by some magical thing called an engine. Rong Yang, who was sitting in the front row, couldn't stand it any longer, so he said to the two assistants beside him, "You move to the back row, and Mrs. Wei and Miss Wei, please sit in the front row."
Chen Xuan and Wei Yin still didn't understand what he meant, so Rong Yang said, "I can tell you about the flying principle of airplanes."
Wei Nian was just listening to his wife and sister muttering about the plane and laughing. When he saw Rong Yang interrupting, Wei Nian quickly said, "Don't bother Mr. Rong. I can just tell them."
Rong Yang said casually, "I took a course in mechanical manufacturing when I was in college, which was considered a second degree."
Chen Xuan, who always believed in academic qualifications, immediately rebelled and pulled Wei Yin to the front row to sit with Mr. Rong, which made Wei Nian very depressed. Rong Yang was knowledgeable and explained things in simple terms. Even Wei Nian in the back row was fascinated after listening for a long time. Rong Yang even compared the current aircraft manufacturing industry in China with that in foreign countries, and even the model of the aircraft they were riding. Rong Yang said, "This is a Douglas passenger plane, which is now considered a large aircraft, better than the Stinson. However, it has to stop in Qingdao and Nanjing on the way to Shanghai. In terms of safety, Douglas is more secure. When flying, it is best to take a large plane. Small planes are less safe."
As for the matter of using a rope to put the plane in the sky, Chen Xuan knew without asking that she had been tricked by Wei Nian. Chen Xuan said, "Mr. Rong, why does Brother Nian always like to tease me? Really, if I hadn't met Mr. Rong, I would have been embarrassed."
Rong Yang said, "Maybe he was born with a bad personality."
Wei Yin quickly spoke up for her second brother, "Mr. Rong, my second brother just likes to joke around, but he actually has a very good heart."
Wei Nian also said to Chen Xuan in the back row, sitting next to her chair, "It was just a little joke. I wanted to explain it to you when we get on the plane." Really, why did they tell outsiders about their marital affairs
Chen Xuan ignored him. Chen Xuan especially trusted people like Mr. Rong who were knowledgeable and well-mannered. Mr. Rong heard that Wei Nian was scratching the back of his chair, so he said leisurely, "There is another situation. In the biological world, males want to attract the attention of females, so they will try to show their beauty. For example, male birds will sing in front of female birds, and peacocks will spread their tails in front of female peacocks when courting. It's no different for humans. It's just that some people express themselves by being extra nice to the person they like, while some young boys are more awkward. They want to attract the attention of the girl they like, but they will try every means to persuade others. In fact, this boy is just expressing his admiration for the girl."
Rong Yang's words made even the thin-skinned ones like Chen Xuan and Wei Yin feel a little embarrassed. Wei Nian, who was so thick-skinned, felt a little embarrassed. He coughed lightly, leaned against the back of Chen Xuan's chair, and whispered, "That's what I mean. The one who knows me best is Mr. Rong."
Chen Xuan's face was still red even when she arrived in Qingdao. Not to mention Wei Nian, she didn't even bother to pay any attention to Mr. Rong. She kept blushing all the way to Shanghai Airport. Only after getting off the plane did Chen Xuan come back to her senses. She said to Wei Nian with a sad face, "I forgot to take a look at what it looked like outside when the plane was in the sky!" She was just too shy.
Wei Nian held her hand and said, "It's not too late to see her again when we have the chance."
Wei Yin smiled, "I saw the white clouds outside the window, one by one. When they were about to land, I looked down from above and could see the mountains, lakes, houses and land on the ground clearly. It was so beautiful."
So Chen Xuan felt even more regretful.
The three of them came to Shanghai with Rong Yang and stayed directly at Rong Mansion.
As soon as they entered the city of Shanghai, they were amazed. Beijing was originally the capital of the emperor. Later, the Nationalist government moved the capital to Nanjing and Beijing was renamed Beiping. However, the old Beijingers still called themselves Beijing. As for Shanghai, they had heard about how prosperous and fashionable it was. Now they saw it with their own eyes and believed it. The streets of Shanghai are definitely not as spacious as Chang'an Avenue, but they are very flat, with Western buildings standing in rows, cars coming and going, and boats passing by on the water. No matter where they are, it is a busy scene. There are also pictures and large advertisements of popular stars on the streets, fashionable girls, young people riding bicycles, and trams slowly carrying passengers.
Even Wei Nian, who was pretending to be calm, looked towards the street several times, not to mention Chen Xuan and Wei Yin.
When they arrived at the Rong Mansion, Rong Yang's residence was of course a completely Western-style residence, more than enough to accommodate the three people from the Wei family. However, Chen Xuan and Wei Nian were used to living in a courtyard house, and they were not used to living in a Western-style building. After Rong Yang handed the three people over to a Liu Ma at home, he received a phone call and hurried out.
Aunt Liu had arranged the room in advance, and introduced the room, the small garden outside, and the tennis court to the guest. Then, she asked when dinner would be served. Wei Nian said, "Don't we have to wait for Mr. Rong?"
It was rare for Aunt Liu to speak Mandarin, but her accent was a bit strange. "The master has gone out, and he didn't say when he would be back. Mr. Wei, Mrs. Wei, and Miss Wei can eat first, and when the master comes back, you can ask the kitchen to prepare it."
Since that was what he said, Wei Nian didn't bother to be polite with Liu Ma. After all, he wasn't going to stay here for just one day.
After lunch, Chen Xuan and Wei Yin put the clothes in the box into the closet. Chen Xuan didn't know where to sit. The bed sheets were all snow-white and embroidered. There was a pair of round sofas and a small round table at the end of the bed by the window. On the small round table was a set of glass tea sets, which was very exquisite. When you open the window, you can see the flowers and plants in the garden. What attracted Chen Xuan was not the garden outside the window, but the large bathroom in the room. It was so high-end, with a marble washbasin, a bright glass mirror, and a flush toilet and bathtub that Chen Xuan didn't recognize.
Fortunately, Wei Nian saw her looking around and introduced her to some places. Chen Xuan smacked her lips, "Oh my god, no wonder people say that the toilets in Shanghai are so high-end."
"I really beg you. It's not like I haven't been to the Six Nations Hotel before."
"But I've never been to the toilet at the Six Nations Hotel."
"You can't say toilet, you have to say restroom."
"Brother Anian, this big tub is really used for bathing."
"yes."
“It’s really advanced.”
Chen Xuan sighed, and Wei Nian said, "When we have money in the future, we will also decorate the house into a Western style. I think the bed is better than the kang, the mattress is softer, and it is more comfortable to sleep on."
"We'll talk about it later. This will definitely cost a lot of money. It's better to save the money for future studies." Chen Xuan never forgets her ambition to study.
Chen Xuan discussed with Wei Nian, "Brother Anian, Miss Qin asked us to bring her a letter and some green sauce meat. I have Miss Qin's address. Let's deliver it to her now."
Wei Nian asked Chen Xuan to take out the address written by Miss Qin and said, "Call first to see if there is anyone at the family's home. Don't go there rashly or you will end up empty-handed."
Then, Wei Nian made a phone call, and within half an hour, Mrs. Qin and daughter-in-law, Madam Qin, came over.
Aunt Liu hurriedly prepared tea and snacks.
To be honest, Qin Shu does not look like his mother. Mrs. Qin is the kind of delicate and graceful woman from the Jiangnan water town. Even though she is old, her manners are still feminine and gentle. In comparison, Qin Shu has big eyes and a high nose bridge, and his personality is even brighter and more lively.
Chen Xuan took out the letter written by Qin Shu and the green sauce meat she bought, and gave them to Mrs. Qin. Seeing that Mrs. Qin's eyes were red, she comforted Mrs. Qin, "Miss Qin is so good, very knowledgeable and well-educated. She is now a French teacher in a junior high school, and she earns 80 yuan a month. She is very impressive." It would have been better if she hadn't comforted her. As soon as she did, Mrs. Qin burst into tears. Mrs. Qin kept wiping her eyes with a handkerchief, and tried to persuade her mother-in-law not to be too sad.
As soon as Wei Nian saw the clothes of the Qin family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, he knew that a piece of clothing might cost more than 80 yuan. Wei Nian said, "Miss Qin is very strong-willed. She must be independent and work for herself. She often said that she came from a scholarly family. Now she is doing teaching and educating people, which can be regarded as inheriting the family's ambition. It takes ten years to grow a tree, and a hundred years to cultivate a person. Although the salary is not high, it is the foundation of a country. Now, Miss Qin is not only a good teacher, but also the teachers and principals in the school like her very much. She often attends Mr. Wen's salon. Because she is a little busy with work and there are many things to do in school, she can't come back for a while, so she asked us to bring her letters. This green sauce meat is from Baohuazhai. Miss Qin said it is Mr. Qin's favorite flavor. She is just worried that her family is still angry with her, so she is always a little timid."
Madam Qin asked, "Mr. Wei, is my sister okay now?"
"Very good. Miss Qin is working as a teacher in Beijing and has made new friends. She is a good friend of my sister. As a girl, it is not easy to rent a house outside, so I let her live in my house. I said I didn't want rent, but Miss Qin still paid for the rent and meals. It can be seen that she is a girl from a well-educated family." Wei Nian completely forgot about the previous bill for Qin Shu. He said objectively, "It is admirable for a girl to be able to be independent and self-reliant outside."
When Mrs. Qin saw Wei Nian veiledly saying that Qin Shu was renting a house alone, she knew that he had split up with the boy surnamed Zhao and sighed, "That's good."
Chen Xuan added, "Miss Qin said that when she gets rich or becomes a big shot, she will return home in glory."
Mrs. Qin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and shook her head, "This silly girl must have caused you a lot of trouble."
Madam Qin smiled and said, "My sister is just like that."
However, this sounded like something that only a lively person could say, so Mrs. Qin and Young Mistress Qin had to ask a few more questions. Wei Yin was most familiar with Qin Shu, and when she talked about how they made clothes and hats together, and how they went out to drink coffee and eat delicious food together, although these were just small things, Mrs. Qin listened very seriously. In the end, she thanked the Wei family again and again, and then took Qin Shu's letter and the green sauce meat back home.
In fact, Mrs. Qin was particularly concerned about her daughter, wondering how she had broken up with the Zhao family and whether she had suffered any loss. However, it was not easy to ask in Rong Mansion. Mrs. Qin's mind was all on Qin Shu's letter. She thanked the Wei family hastily and took her daughter-in-law home.
Mrs. Qin waited until she got home before reading her daughter's letter.
This time, there was no need for Mrs. Qin to inquire about it. Qin Shu did not hide anything and wrote it all in the letter. Moreover, he wrote it angrily. Qin Shu said that all the money she earned was taken away by Zhao Chengjuan, which made her sick. Fortunately, her good friend Wei Yin saved her and helped her find a doctor. Qin Shu said in the letter that she wanted her family to keep an eye out in Shanghai and avenge Zhao if they saw him! As for the time to go home, it was exactly the same as what Chen Xuan said. Qin Shu wrote in the letter that she would return to Shanghai after she made a fortune and became a big shot. She would never let anyone laugh at her!
Mrs. Qin, as a mother, was deeply concerned about her daughter. Fortunately, she read the letter and found that her daughter was still in good spirits, so she was relieved. That night, Mrs. Qin told her husband about her daughter's affairs in private. Director Qin's face darkened, "Don't mention that person who has made no progress!"
"Oh, Ah Shu has realized her mistake now. Ah Shu is teaching in a middle school now. The teachers and the principal all like her." Mrs. Qin advised softly, "Don't be angry. Our Ah Shu has suffered a great loss. She was cheated by the man named Zhao. The letter also told us to pay attention to the man named Zhao and avenge her. I think she really understands it." As she spoke, she stuffed the letter to her husband.
Director Qin barely glanced at it and slapped the letter back into his wife's hands, saying bluntly, "When she becomes rich and famous, I will be buried in the ground!"
"That's what the little girl said. If it were you, I'd say we should bring Ah Shu back home. He's been through a lot outside these past two years."
"Why would you pick her up? Is she too weak to walk or doesn't know the way? She won't come back by herself?" Director Qin snorted. "This time Mr. Rong asked her kindly if she wanted to come back, but she took off her shoes and smashed the glass of his car. Tell me, is this still a lady from a noble family? Don't pay attention to her. I think she hasn't suffered enough."
"How do you know that Ash smashed Mr. Rong's car window with a shoe?" Mrs. Qin asked hurriedly.
Director Qin accidentally let the matter slip, and it was not easy to conceal it any longer. He coughed and said, "Mr. Rong had met Ah Shu in Beijing before, and he told me about it privately with good intentions. Tell me, Mr. Rong, is he kind-hearted? Look at your daughter, what kind of person is she? It's just like a dog biting Lu Dongbin."
"Ashu is still young."
"What's so small?"
"You have to understand the matter of the surname Zhao. You can't just let it go like this, right?"
"You don't have to worry about that." Director Qin snorted and said no more about Zhao Cheng. In any era, the powerful are the hardest to mess with. If Zhao Cheng lives a stable life with Qin Shu, the Qin family will not do anything for Qin Shu's sake. But Zhao Cheng dared to take away the money and abandon Qin Shu. Qin Shu was just wrong and didn't expect this. Otherwise, Qin Shu is not someone who is easy to mess with, not to mention the Qin family. Zhao Cheng took the initiative to leave, and the Qin family no longer had to care about Qin Shu's face. Mrs. Qin mentioned Zhao Cheng at this time, not knowing that Director Qin had already solved the matter. Is it still necessary to keep this person to gossip about this and that in the future and show off the romantic history with Director Qin's daughter
The Qin family talked about the runaway daughter Qin Shu. At Rong Mansion, Rong Yang went out at noon and never came back. The Wei family members were free to move around. The three of them went out for a walk and chose a restaurant to eat in the evening. When they returned to Rong Mansion in the evening, Rong Yang still hadn't come home. Chen Xuan tried this western-style bathtub and shower and found it incredibly convenient. After Chen Xuan came out of the bath and went to bed, she found that it didn't work. This bed was different from the kang, and there was no place to put the small kang table in the middle. Oh, Chen Xuan stared at Wei Nian, who was leaning against the bed with half-wet black hair and reading a book, and didn't know what to do
Fortunately, Chen Xuan was very smart now. She came up with a clever idea, "Brother Anian, this bed is too small. Ah Yin and I will sleep in the same bed."
Wei Nian spoke naturally, "Is the bed in Ah Yin's room not crowded? Come up, there is no room for sleeping, there is room for sleeping."
"No, this is too impure." Chen Xuan refused firmly.
"What's impure about it? This is at Mr. Rong's house, what else can I do?" Wei Nian's beautiful eyes showed sincerity in his left eye and sincerity in his right eye, and he swore to Chen Xuan, "We have lived on the same kang for more than two years, and you still don't trust me."
“But this is too close.”
"Hey, I'll move aside, you move aside, how can you be closer? Come on up quickly, don't catch a cold."
Wei Nian kept persuading Chen Xuan and finally got her to bed. Chen Xuan said, "Brother Anian, why don't you blow dry your hair? The hair dryer is very useful and the wind is warm."
"It's warm now, I want to read for a while, it will dry naturally in a while." Wei Nian lifted his half-wet hair, kept a moist face, unzipped the collar of his bathrobe, moved closer to Chen Xuan, and asked with concern, "What book are you reading?"
Chen Xuan handed the book to Wei Nian, and then, when she turned around, she saw Wei Nian's wide-open chest and the two small red beans on his chest. Chen Xuan put the book aside, and with two hands, she pulled Wei Nian's bathrobe tight for him, and emphasized with a serious face, "Brother Nian, you can't do this. Your flesh is exposed."
Wei Nian felt like vomiting blood and lay motionless on the bed.
"You don't read anymore?"
Wei Niansheng had nothing to lose, "I won't watch it."
Chen Xuan narrowed her eyes and glanced at Wei Nian. Exposing her body in the middle of the night meant that he had bad intentions. Did she think she couldn't see it? She didn't care whether he wanted to or not. She ignored Wei Nian! She felt that Wei Nian was dishonest!
