Chapter 364 People who eat melons
During this period, Qian Duoduo frequently followed Mrs. Yang to various banquets.
These social activities brought her into contact with many dignitaries and celebrities in the capital, and also gave her a deeper understanding of the city’s political, economic and cultural conditions.
By communicating with people from different backgrounds, Qian Duoduo gradually became familiar with the power structure and interpersonal network in Beijing.
At the same time, the attitudes and words of the ladies can reveal the character of the adults behind them. There is a certain correlation between them.
For example, if a lady is arrogant and domineering, then we can infer that the man behind her may also be an arrogant person;
On the contrary, if a lady is gentle, friendly and polite, then we can guess that the man behind her may also be a humble and kind person.
This correlation is not absolute, but it reflects to some extent the influence of family environment on people.
When Mrs. Yang was having another "summary" with Qian Duoduo, Yang Chuyi came over.
This was one of the few times that Yang Chuyi met Qian Duoduo.
"Mother, my sister is here too,"
"elder sister."
Qian Duoduo also greeted him very politely.
Although I know that the other person doesn't like me and I won't take the initiative to make friends with him/her, I still have to be polite.
"How are you feeling? If you feel unwell, ask the court doctor to check it out. Don't just endure it." Madam Yang said to Yang Chuyi, whose face was rosy.
Yang Chuyi blushed. Hearing her aunt's concerned words, she felt a warm current in her heart, but also felt a little guilty.
She replied softly, "I'm sorry to have worried mother, but I just have a poor appetite recently, probably because of the hot summer.
But don't worry, I've asked the court doctor to make me some easy-to-digest pills, and now I feel much better." She frowned slightly, as if she was still trying to adapt to this state of physical discomfort.
"I'm glad you're alright. When you have some free time, go find your little sisters and go shopping. If you don't have enough money, you can always go to the cashier to withdraw some."
"Yes, my daughter knows."
When did Yang Chuyi start calling Madam Yang "mother"?
This confused Qian Duoduo.
She suddenly remembered that she had heard Bai Ningning complain about Yang Chuyi's "filial" personality before, but at that time it seemed that she had not yet recognized Yang's father and mother as her parents.
So, when did she change her tune? This question made Qian Duoduo fall into a little contemplation.
Oh~ Qian Duoduo suddenly realized that it must be because she felt a sense of crisis after she came back.
Maybe it was to make himself seem closer to her; or maybe he was afraid that she would be sent back to her biological parents by Mr. and Mrs. Yang.
It is really "not easy" to maintain the "filial" persona while taking good care of the current "parents who provide you with food and clothing".
Tsk tsk tsk, really! Sometimes people have happiness in their hands, but they don’t know how to cherish it.
Perhaps it is because they are used to having and have forgotten the feeling of losing; or perhaps it is because they are confused by trivial matters and desires and ignore the truly important people and things around them.
However, when happiness quietly leaves them, they will suddenly realize and regret it. This is like an endless cycle.
People always learn to cherish something only after they lose it, and this realization often comes too late.
Therefore, we must learn to seize the present and cherish everything in front of us, and not wait until we lose it to regret it.
Therefore, Qian Duoduo is very satisfied with the way he gets along with Yang's father and mother.
Quietly give yourself a thumbs up in your heart.
Qian Duoduo didn't move, just glanced at Yang Chuyi.
She saw how Yang's father and mother treated her, and they did not have any cold thoughts towards Yang Chuyi because she came back.
On the contrary, sometimes, because I am afraid that she will think too much, I will consider her more in certain situations.
I feel more guilty about myself, after all, we haven't lived together for more than ten years.
However, Qian Duoduo doesn't care.
Feelings are also developed through getting along with each other. As long as the parents treat you well, you will return the kindness in the same way and not force it too much.
Maybe Yang's father and mother also saw what he was thinking, so they felt even more guilty, and the balance was gradually shifting towards him.
But they are also the ones who can feel Yang Chuyi's changes the most.
I feel disappointed.
Yes, I just feel a little disappointed towards her. I don’t know what Yang Chuyi did to make Yang’s father and mother so disappointed towards her.
Qian Duoduo drank tea while thinking blankly.
"Remember? We are going to the Sun family in two days, the Sun family of your friend."
Before Qian Duoduo could react, Yang Chuyi's voice came out first.
"Sun family? Isn't it the Huangfu family?" Yang Chuyi suddenly interrupted.
"Chuyi, I don't remember teaching you rules like this!" Mrs. Yang reprimanded Yang Chuyi very seriously.
"Who told you that I was going to Huangfu's house?"
Madam Yang did receive an invitation to the Huangfu family banquet today, but it was a week later. She also responded to the invitation in time.
Except for the people in her yard, no one else in the mansion should know about it. No one would pay attention to it. Even the doorman would just pass it on and would not shout loudly in the mansion.
If she didn't tell him, even the master wouldn't know whose house she was going to attend the party.
When she thought of this, Mrs. Yang frowned even more tightly.
"Mother, I know I was wrong. I just heard from the concierge that the Huangfu family had sent a visiting card, and I thought that you might go to the Huangfu family to attend the banquet."
"Which concierge said that?"
"what?"
"Let me ask you, which of the servants in the concierge told you that?"
"This...I..."
This was the information Yang Chuyi secretly learned by bribing the little maid in Madam Yang's courtyard. There was no such thing as a gatekeeper.
But seeing that her aunt was looking at her with anger on her face, Yang Chuyi knew that her aunt had seen through her little thoughts.
Yang Chuyi's cheeks flushed, her eyes were filled with tears, and she couldn't say anything else.
"Hey,"
Seeing her like this, Mrs. Yang's angry heart suddenly softened.
Qian Duoduo watched from the side, keeping silent the whole time. She even stopped drinking tea, fearing that she would make a sound and then be embarrassed.
She lowered her head slightly and let her eyes keep watch.
Seeing Yang Chuyi like this, she guessed that she might have bribed the servants in her mother's courtyard in exchange for the information.
Wow, you are so brave for love.
"Chu Yi, you should know what you can do and what you can't do. Mammy, find that person." Madam Yang suddenly felt a headache.
"Yes!"
The nanny, who had no sense of presence throughout the whole process, responded with such a loud voice that Qian Duoduo was startled.
But just by listening to the voice, you can feel the anger of the nanny.
Alas, I am forced to eat melon today.
She wanted to leave first, but seeing that her mother was not feeling well, she took her mother's hand and held it tightly.
