So Wang Shouyun invited Chen Yixing and Huang Weitian to accompany him to buy gifts for his fiancée. Shopping is Huang Weitian's strong point. If someone needs her, she will not hesitate to help with all her heart and soul. Help empty wallets.
But in the end, the gift-buying trip became four people, and Li Shaoyong was added to the list. The distance between Paris and Schaffer is not too far. It can be reached quickly by train, which is closer than Pingcheng to Wangjing. Although Li Shaoyong is the ambassador to France, he has his own house in Schaffer.
He came here specifically to have a small gathering with Wang Shouyun and his second brother to see them off. However, since the last dance, Li Shaoyong has also come to Shaffer frequently, more frequently than before.
Li Shaoyong is one year younger than his second brother. At the age of 26, he is already a senior official in China. Moreover, the senior official’s original wife passed away the year before last and left no children. Li Shaoyong specially stayed with his original wife. A year later, she returned to this colorful social scene. A French socialite once said with emotion: "Without Li Shaoyong, the Paris social scene has become uninteresting at all, like a piece of burned steak. It makes people feel that food is tasteless." This shows the charm of Li Shaoyong himself.
The reason why this diplomat often comes to Schafer recently is that he has recently made a new acquaintance with a beautiful lady, and they are playing a game of waiting for each other to take the bait.
Now, Li Shaoyong and this young lady are following behind Wang Shouyun and Chen Yibing. Although the distance between the two is more than one meter, the back and forth between their eyebrows makes Chen Yibing People who think they are not very interested in love can feel the pink waves between the two from afar, and that beautiful lady is of course Chen Yipin's new best friend, Miss Huang Weitian.
Chen Yiping has been accompanying her second brother recently, so she doesn’t spend much time with Huang Weitian. In addition, Huang Weitian is also busy fighting with Li Shaoyong, so the two have never talked about this topic. .
Chen Yibing didn't find a chance to chat with Huang Weitian. Huang walked with Wang Shouyun, thinking that she was helping him choose gifts, so she dutifully asked his fiancée's taste while asking her directly. How much money do you plan to spend? Wang Shouyun comes from a declining family. Although he is now a lieutenant colonel, the salary of an officer is not particularly high these days, so he is also a person who does not have a lot of money. He said with embarrassment: "Ruirui comes from a superior family. , she must have plenty of ordinary things, but I don’t have much money..."
Chen Yiping said: "What you buy for her is based on your heart. I think she will like whatever you buy, as long as it comes from your heart."
Wang Shouyun smiled bitterly: "She is not an ordinary girl..." Chen Yiping understood clearly that the young ladies of high-ranking official families in Pingcheng and Wangjing had extremely high vision. Looking at Wang Shouyun's careful selection of gifts, I am afraid that I also like this fiancée very much.
Chen Yibing accompanied him to visit several boutiques, but she did not help him pick out anything he liked. Instead, she picked out several things herself, and planned to let her second brother take them back to the country to give to relatives and friends, such as her eldest brother, sister-in-law, and second sister-in-law. There are also the children of the second brother. The eldest brother and sister-in-law have been married for many years and still have no children. The parents at home also have younger brothers and sisters. More importantly, they have prepared many carefully prepared gifts for their son Aguang who lives in the Lu family. They plan to let the second brother Brother sent it to the Lu family personally.
The driver behind was following behind with several packaging bags. Chen Yibin said sheepishly: "I also want to buy some gifts for my family. The ones I bought for them are more popular and easier to buy."
Wang Shouyun showed an understanding expression, and Chen Yibin then figured out that he only seemed to want to buy a gift for his fiancée, and his parents and brothers didn't mention anything. Chen Yibin thought, maybe this is another story.
When Huang Weitian and Li Shaoyong finished their lawsuit, Chen Yiping pulled her in and said, "Please help me think about it. I really can't think of it. Sui Qing's fiancée is very discerning. It is said that she is a very talented person." It’s up to you to be a classy socialite.”
Huang Weitian's face is a little pink, and her eyes look a little brighter than usual. Or maybe it is said that women in love are the most beautiful. She withdrew her thoughts from Li Shaoyong and immediately helped Wang Shouyun activate his brain. Buying things was her specialty. She said who dared to be the second best, and later she suggested buying a women's mechanical watch.
There are four things that Pingcheng women in the future must have: cheongsam, pearl necklace, lipstick, and mechanical watch. These four items are must-have items for a discerning Pingcheng girl to go out on the street. Needless to say, cheongsam Pearl necklaces are also a fashion trend that has spread from France in the past two years. There are already many cheap imitation pearls abroad, so girls from ordinary families can afford them. There were not many lipstick colors in that era, and they were basically red. , and mechanical watches must be bought from abroad, because China does not have the strength to produce watches, and mechanical watches are very expensive, unlike fake pearl necklaces that ordinary girls can afford.
Nowadays, cheongsam, pearl necklaces and lipstick have become popular in Pingcheng. Mechanical watches are not so popular because they are expensive and must be bought abroad. However, today’s ladies from aristocratic families are wearing an expensive watch. A very impressive thing.
Huang Weitian's proposal was approved by everyone. Wang Shouyun weighed the money in his hand and nodded. Huang Weitian did not take everyone to the store where she often buys jewelry this time. Instead, she went to a store in a small alley.
She said: "Although the store here is small and the place is not grand, but because of Schafer's tax issues, there are many watches here that have avoided tariffs and entered the country. Because the channels are not bright, they cannot be bought in the mall, and they cannot be bought in the mall. The sales are too conspicuous, so only some old customers know about it. My old housekeeper is a frequent visitor here, so I also know that because the tariffs are avoided here, the price is quite suitable."
A group of four people entered the store. The store looked like a repair shop for repairing clocks. However, after Huang Weitian reported the name of the old housekeeper, they were taken to another room at the back of the store. Inside, the shopkeeper took out several boxes from the counter and opened them. As Huang Weitian said, they were all excellent watches.
Later, several people helped Wang Shouyun choose a mechanical watch inlaid with some diamonds. Chen Yibing also took the opportunity to buy one for herself, which happened to be used when Kang Dun was studying. After buying the watch, she went to Shaffer's shopping mall to buy a lot of clothes for a four-year-old boy, gifts for her mother and the others, etc. In the end, their car turned out to be full of Chen Yibing's stuff. Half a car.
Chen Yiping returned to the Huang Mansion to sort out the things to be brought back to her second brother. She unpacked the things for A Guang and stuffed the clothes and toys she just bought into the suitcase. Mother Lu's thoughts were feudal and pre-standard. With the thinking of an old-fashioned woman, when seeing A Guang, she may not be able to give him these Western things, but this is also Chen Yibing's intention. At the same time, she also wrote a letter to A Guang. She thought that A Guang should have been enlightened and literate. Because the two elders of the Lu family had trained a talented man, Lu Yunhe, they paid special attention to the education of their children and grandchildren. Even if they doted on A Guang, they would still teach him when he was old. The words in the letter were all written in simple words. She was worried that he could not see clearly, so she told him to listen carefully to his grandparents, she was thinking of him and so on.
Huang Weitian sat on Chen Yibin's bed and watched her walking around on the carpet, meditating for a while and then busy again. Huang Weitian sat on the bed and pretended to ask her casually: "Jiahe, you said... Li How is Shaoyong like this person?"
Chen Yiping said: "It's so attractive to women."
Huang Weitian: "That proves that he is charming."
Chen Yiping was very direct: "That also means that his wife will be very tired."
Huang Weitian said "oh" in a long tone, without further explanation.
After Chen Yibing put her things away, she also sat on the sofa next to her and said, "Why, do you like him?"
Huang Weitian: "He is different from the men I have seen before..."
Chen Yiping: "Of course, he has a handsome face, holds a high position, and holds great power. How can ordinary men at this age achieve his position? So he is different from ordinary men!"
When Huang Weitian heard that Li Shaoyong was praised, her eyes lit up: "Yes, he can be called a real young talent."
Chen Yiping: "Hey, were all those words I just said in vain?"
Huang Weitian: "Only such a person can be worthy of me, Huang Weitian!"
Chen Yiping thought to herself that Huang Weitian would definitely not be able to persuade her now. Who can persuade her when she is in love? Condon University will start school in two days, and Li Shaoyong will return to Paris again. The two of them meet rarely. Given Huang Wei's sweet personality of loving the new and hating the old, she will probably forget about him in a few days. Besides, she has always been with Huang Wei. Next to sweetness, you can also look at it a little bit. With this in mind, Chen Yiping stopped pouring cold water on her.
The next day, the second brother was about to board the ship and leave. Chen Yibing brought a bunch of things to the second brother for him to take back. The second brother looked at the baggage and suitcases in front of him and really couldn’t laugh or cry. He said: "When I came, I only I brought two boxes, one of which was full of things for you, but I went back and took away half of the shopping mall." He also saw someone specifically written on the box for someone, so he just divided it up as soon as he got home. .
Chen Yiping said specifically: "The contents in this box are for A Guang. The second brother wants to deliver it in person, and also wants to see A Guang and tell him that I have been thinking of him. Here is a letter to him... ..." Even for a person with a calm personality like Chen Yibing, he still couldn't help but say more.
After Chen Yiping said what she wanted to explain, her second brother began to tell her some things. The second brother himself was a very serious character who rarely spoke. When he was young, he learned Confucianism. When he was young, he studied in Western countries. He has acquired foreign knowledge by studying abroad, but in his heart he still has the style of a Confucian gentleman. He is the kind of person who doesn't make promises easily, but will definitely do it once he makes a promise. It's rare to hear him talk about anything.
The second brother told Chen Yiping, "I should write more letters to my eldest brother when I have free time. My eldest brother is also thinking of you. Since you wrote to him last time, he has also been hurt by your severing words and called me. I told him several times on the phone that your eldest brother has been very fond of you since you were a child. He is the same as me before and has not changed his mind. I will go back and talk to him carefully. If you are fine, tell him what you are thinking and talk about it. In your current life, I think if he knew that you were studying in Kangdun, he would definitely be proud of you!"
Chen Yiping said "hmm", and the second brother said: "Let me help you tell your parents, don't worry about this, should you write a letter or not?"
"As for the Lu family, if you have anything you can't negotiate with them, you can tell me and I will help you deal with it. You still have to get along with them calmly on a daily basis. You can't be relatives and you can't be enemies, especially when Aguang is still here. The Lu family is raising them."
Chen Yiping kept nodding and saying "hmm". The second brother felt that he had never liked nagging people, so why did he like to nag so much now? He felt that there were many things that he had not explained. He really felt that he had broken his heart with her. !
The second brother talked a lot with Chen Yibing again, and then reluctantly boarded the ship. Wang Shouyun thanked Chen Yibing and said, "Thank you for the boiled fish, and thank you for buying gifts with me."
Chen Yiping waved her hand, these are all small things.
The ship they were on quickly turned into a small black spot on the sea level. Huang Weitian and Li Shaoyong also wanted to go home. Chen Yiping watched Li Shaoyong get into Huang Weitian's car.
A few days after the second brother and the others left, Condon University started school, and Chen Yiping finally attended this century-old prestigious school in her life.
