Chapter 304: Peeling Apples
In the evening, Zhou Caishi led Masao Ishihara into her house. When he saw Zhou's mother, Masao Ishihara not only took the initiative to deliver the Otter Sacrifice's Mine as a gift to the other party, but also bowed to her forty-five degrees with the tribute of the younger generation.
Mother Zhou, who had a smile on her face, had long known that he was quite good. She was particularly concerned about preparing for this dinner tonight.
Zhou's mother said to her daughter with a Minnan accent: "It turns out that she is young and promising. Daughter, you have to seize the opportunity to make him the minister under your skirt."
"Mom, don't talk nonsense." Zhou Caishi said shyly.
"Why am I talking nonsense? You are a man of talent and a woman of beauty. It is most suitable to be together. Don't think I can't see your mother.
In fact, you have that aspect of his meaning. It is really hard to find an outstanding young man like him." Zhou's mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law and said happier the more she looked at her.
"We are the relationship between ordinary bosses and subordinates." Zhou Caishi said in a distorted way.
"You can deceive others in this way, but you will definitely not deceive your mother and me. I don't know you yet." Mother Zhou said with a smile and said very bluntly.
"Mom, you don't have to worry about jokes when you say these words in front of others." Zhou Caishi couldn't help but become rosy and said.
"He is a Japanese man, and I don't understand what we are talking about. Can I marry my daughter to you? I don't want your house, car, ticket, and bride price." Zhou's mother looked at Masao Ishihara with a smile.
While Masao Ishihara heard the conversation between them and their daughter clearly, he had to pretend that he could not understand anything.
If they speak Minnan directly, they really won’t understand it. However, one of them spoke in Mandarin with a Minnan accent, and the other spoke in Mandarin with a Taiwanese accent.
"Look, does he not understand what our mother and daughter are talking about?" The smile on Mother Zhou's face became even brighter.
"If he understands everything, I will be shameless to be a human being, your daughter." Zhou Caishi said bluntly.
"Men are married when they are old, and women are married when they are old. Those who do not marry or marry are shameless." Zhou's mother expressed her generation's concept of marriage and love.
Zhou Caishi didn't say anything. She realized that it was not good to leave Masao Ishihara next to her, so she made up a story in Japanese and said to him: "I'm sorry, there are few guests in our family, especially foreigners."
You are the first foreigner to come to our house. My mother was very happy to see you. I hope you can like our Taiwan and our house. My mother also said, don’t be restrained, treat this place as your own home."
Masao Ishihara knew that this was called talking lies with her eyes open, so he had to cooperate and said, "Thank you, it's the first time I've entered a Chinese family."
Zhou Caishi raised his hand and signaled him toward the sofa in the living room and said, "Let's go here."
Masao Ishihara understood and moved his steps toward the sofa. He stopped, turned around and sat down.
Then, Zhou Caishi, who also sat down, then leaned forward and took an apple in one hand and a fruit knife placed in the fruit plate with the other hand and said, "I'll cut an apple for you."
Although Zhou's mother couldn't understand Japanese, she knew that she wouldn't take the initiative to peel apples from her daughter.
She suddenly interrupted with a smile and said, "The relationship between an ordinary boss and a subordinate is really great. I have raised you for almost twenty years, and I have never seen you peel an apple for me."
Zhou Caishi pretended not to hear, and just burped her head to peel the apple in her hand. Even if she obviously didn't peel it well, she was still working hard.
At the same time, Masao Ishihara knew in his heart that if Chinese girls take the initiative to peel apples for boys, there is another meaning of likes. Similarly, if Chinese boys take the initiative to peel apples for girls, they also have the obvious meaning of likes.
When Zhou Caishi handed the peeled apple to Masao Ishihara, although it was not like a dog that had been eaten by a dog, it felt like it was one-quarter of the peeled apple and obviously "slimming" a lot.
It is not difficult to see that Masao Ishihara is a girl who not only rarely peels apples, but also does housework.
Of course, the men that Taiwanese girls from the upper middle class who will marry in the future, even if they are not men from the upper class, they will at least be men from the same class.
Buying a house in Taipei is also a task that is difficult for ordinary working-class Taiwanese boys to complete. It is normal for ordinary young couples to rent a house outside to live after marriage.
Among the locals in Taipei, there are not many real estate, and there are too many. When Taiwan’s economy rises and takes off, not everyone has benefited.
Not everyone has seized the opportunity. In addition, some people spend their money on eating, drinking, gamble, and naturally they will not accumulate wealth.
They rely on motorcycles as means of transportation when traveling, but unlike Vietnamese, one thing is that Vietnamese choose motorcycles only if they cannot afford cars, and Taiwan is a typical case of failure in urban planning.
Locomotives are not only more convenient for Taiwanese people to travel, but also economical. Most of them still want to save money to buy a house.
Taiwanese families of the upper middle class do not need women to do housework themselves. There is no problem in having one or two maids from the Philippines or other Southeast Asian countries to work at home.
This operation is not only in Taiwan, but also in Hong Kong, Singapore, and other Southeast Asian countries.
"Is it sweet?" Zhou Caishi looked at Masao Ishihara intently and asked.
"Or why don't you have a mouthful first?" Masao Ishihara said as he delivered the apple in his right hand towards her.
Zhou Caishi stretched her neck without hesitation and took a bite with her mouth. Zhou's mother suddenly said, "One peels an apple with her own hands and the other feeds the apple with her own hands. How come it is not sweet?
It must be sweet to the heart! Sorry, daughter! Mom forgot again, you are just ordinary, yes, that kind of relationship between an ordinary boss and subordinate."
Zhou Caishi pretended to be angry and said, "Mom, you said a lot tonight."
