The old master had regrets in his heart, but he still told the truth: “What about Fei Qing and Ning Jiao, they are also well received. The elders on both sides are happy to see it happen.”
Zhao Lanlan laughed a little, not noticing her smile, which was inexplicably bitter.
“Grandpa, I’ll go first then.” Pulling open the door to the side room, he stepped out.
When she walked to the hall, she was slightly stunned when she saw Xia Feiqing sleeping on the sofa. He was very well behaved when he was asleep. Hands folded and resting on his chest, elegant and quiet.
This weather is a little cooler. Especially in the suburbs, it was going to be a bit colder than the city. And yet he didn’t cover anything and just fell asleep like this, it’s easy to catch a cold.
Realizing what she was thinking, she jolted and twisted her face away, refusing to think any further. What did it have to do with herself if he had a cold or not? This was something Yu Ningjiao should be concerned about.
“It’s this time of the day, why is Fei Qing still here?” The old man said suspiciously.
Zhao Lanlan subconsciously looked up at the time, it was almost three o’clock. Obviously, it was too late for him to go to work.
“He’s going to work anyway, why don’t I just wake him up and have him drive you downtown?” The old man said.
“No need, grandpa.” Zhao Lanlan hurriedly stopped the old man, “Let him sleep, I’ll just take the subway myself.”
“Where’s the convenient subway over here? It takes a long time to get there.”
“That’s okay, I’ll just wait.”
Seeing that she was so resolute, the old man didn’t insist anymore. Saying goodbye, she went out the door alone.
Xia Feiqing didn’t know what was wrong and woke up in a flash. When he woke up, the old master was wearing presbyopia glasses and sitting on another single sofa, reading a newspaper. A little unclear, he rubbed the corner of his forehead and glanced at the old master, “Why are you sitting here? Aren’t you in an interview?”
“What’s left of the interview? It’s all done.”
“Finished?” Xia Feiqing raised his wrist, and in the next instant, immediately looked around.
But …
Where is that figure?
“Looking for what?” The old man asked knowingly, looking at him twice through his old glasses.
He was a bit of a wreck, “It’s nothing.”
Sitting up from the couch and putting on his shoes, he looked again. There was still no sign of Zhao Lanlan. Could it be that she has …
“Stop looking, she’s long gone.” The old man said.
Xia Feiqing’s face changed as he stood up, his brow furrowed, “Why didn’t you wake me up as well?”
“She’s going her way, what am I waking you up for?” The old master said slyly, Xia Feiqing resolved to no longer ignore him, grabbed the car keys intending to go. The old master said, “By the way, discuss something with you.”
“What?”
“Do you remember your second uncle’s oldest son over at the old house when you were a kid?”
“What about him?” Xia Feiqing didn’t understand the old man’s sudden words.
“Didn’t you go your daughter-in-law not long ago? He entrusted your grandmother and I to help introduce one to him. She should be divorced, younger, and childless.”
“If you see a suitable one, introduce one to me. Second uncle’s family is in good condition, and his son is good in all aspects, so many women want to enter their family.”
“Yeah, so I’m here to talk to you, aren’t I? What do you say, how is Lanlan? If you think it’s okay, I’ll turn around and send them a picture of Lan Lan to look at.” The old master was seriously discussing with his grandson.
Xia Feiqing only felt a rush of blood rushing to the top, and not caring about etiquette, his nonchalant words rushed out, “Grandpa, you’re old and confused!”
“How do you talk?” The old master was generous and didn’t bother with him, “What? Is Lanlan not good enough for your second uncle’s son? Isn’t she young? Pretty? No kids?”
“Second uncle’s son is a 40 year old man with two children, is Zhao Lanlan so downtrodden as to want to live with this kind of person?” Xia Feiqing felt that the old man was simply telling a joke.
“Eh, didn’t you just say that people are well qualified? That good condition is not good enough for Lan Lan?”
“…” Xia Feiqing was asked two rhetorical questions by the old man, asked speechless. Originally is right, the other party is a good condition of the man, to women at your fingertips. But say, Zhao Lanlan will never be allowed! “Anyway, I’m not allowed!”
“You, you, are just selfish! You’re getting a wife yourself, and you don’t allow your ex-wife to find a good man?”
“I’m afraid she’ll lose our Xia family’s face! Think about it, turning around and saying that Second Uncle’s daughter-in-law is your original grandson-in-law, is that like it?”
“I don’t care about that, so what do you care?”
“…” Xia Feiqing was speechless again. In the end, the old man could only say, “That’s fine, tell me, what kind of man should be suitable for one like Lan Lan.”
“At least it shouldn’t be an old married man!” Xia Feiqing answered without thinking. However, after saying the words, he felt annoyed to death. It seemed like matching any kind of man made him unhappy.
The old man laughed and shook his head straight, “Do you really not realize how realistic this society is? Nowadays, a divorced woman would be lucky to find a man in his 40s with good conditions. Besides, Lan Lan’s family is not like others, and her political background is not clean. But isn’t all this thanks to you? Forget it, you won’t care anyway, it’s nonsense to talk to you about this. I’ll call and talk to Lan Lan personally later.”
The old man waved at him, “Go go go, go to work.”
“Grandpa, you don’t …”
“You’re nagging. She’s not your wife anymore, what do you care?” The old man’s eyes glared, silencing his words.
Coming out of the mansion, Xia Feiqing was depressed as hell in her heart. Thinking about the fact that the old man was going to introduce her to a man, she pounded the steering wheel in displeasure.
What nonsense! Ridiculous!
Besides, when the hell did that woman leave? Why didn’t anyone wake him up?
Very upset, he drove his car and headed downtown. However, a familiar figure slammed into his line of sight, and with a ”squeak-” sound, he jerked the car to a stop.
She didn’t turn out to be far away.
It was now standing in front of a fruit stand, picking out fruit.
Looking at the figure, he couldn’t help but lower the window of the car and listen very hard to her voice.
“Boss, how much is this pineapple a piece?”
“Two pieces.”
“Ah, so expensive oh.” She was a little embarrassed, a little embarrassed, but still whispered her counteroffer, “Boss, can you sell it to me for a piece of 8? I’ll buy two. There’s exactly 60 cents in change here.”
Missy, who never bargained, was now bargaining for 20 cents.
“Just 20 cents and you still have to pay it back?” The boss looked at her askance, looking at her shy and embarrassed look, and finally waved his hand, “Forget it, I’ll sell you! Do you need anything else?”
“What about this apple? How much is the apple?”
“Eight dollars.”
“… So expensive …” she murmured subconsciously.
“Let’s see, if you can’t afford it, forget it. This is also expensive and that is also expensive, we are all open for business.”
The owner has a really bad attitude!
