Chapter 53 Guest

Tao Meng glanced at Yang Jingxing and said indifferently: "I don't want to laugh anyway."

Yang Jingxing asked: "Why? Say it and I'll laugh."

Tao Meng despised: "It's not funny."

Yang Jingxing exclaimed: "Hey, my appetite has grown."

Tao Meng sneered: "Have you raised it yet?"

Yang Jingxing was angry: "Could it be someone else? Who?"

"boring!"

"Who is boring?"

Tao Meng was very impatient and asked: "Where are you going to buy it?"

Yang Jingxing said: "You buy it, you decide."

"You don't want to buy it?"

"I just need to buy a cake. I'm not as careful as you."

Tao Meng sarcastically said: "You are not careful! You can even read your ID card... just go to my house."

After driving there, Tao Meng gave Yang Jingxing directions and asked him to park the car in the parking lot of Hongfu Jiayuan. Tao Meng's house had two parking spaces, and Tao Meng's Mini was parked in the other one.

Yang Jingxing was nosy: "Where's the Rolls-Royce?"

Tao Meng said: "We stopped at the villa. The driver has to get off work. Grandma will stay here tonight."

Yang Jingxing asked again: "Do you usually live here alone?"

Tao Meng said: "No, it's farther over there, Songjiang... In fact, the houses here are much more expensive."

Yang Jingxing asked: "How much?"

Tao Meng said: "More than 40 million."

Yang Jingxing said: "Then I have to buy a pair of good socks!"

Tao Meng chuckled and reminded: "It's your first time here, and grandma is here, so you should bring something."

Yang Jingxing asked: "What's good?"

Tao Meng was angry: "Are you the guest or me?"

Yang Jingxing said: "I am a very ordinary guest, so it doesn't matter if I don't bring one."

Tao Meng looked at Yang Jingxing and seemed a little apologetic: "That's all I can say... aren't you angry?"

Yang Jingxing rubbed his nose and said, "Quickly coax me."

Tao Meng turned around and left. Yang Jingxing quickly chased after her: "Oh, Tao Meng, what a coincidence, you are so beautiful today."

After entering the mall, Tao Meng's steps slowed down. After looking at the jewelry on several counters, she said to Yang Jingxing, "It's better not to buy too expensive ones, right?"

Yang Jingxing said, "I thought you were showing it to yourself?"

Tao Meng said: "I'm not very interested in jewelry... Let's go to the sixth floor first."

Yang Jingxing took advantage of Tao Meng, and there was a vp elevator to sit in. The sixth floor was the men's building, and Tao Meng took Yang Jingxing to a store that sold socks.

Tao Meng said: "You can choose it yourself."

When did socks become so expensive? Yang Jingxing just picked up a pair and prepared to pay. Tao Meng spoke again: "The quality of this one is not good, I want this kind, black." He asked the clerk again: "The dark one is the same.

Get a pair, make sure you’re the right size!”

Five pairs of socks are enough to buy a good guitar.

Seeing Yang Jingxing sitting down and about to take off his shoes, Tao Meng grabbed him and said, "Don't change here!"

Yang Jingxing's legs had already been pulled out: "Where else would we go?"

Tao Meng could only look away, pretending not to recognize the man wearing torn socks.

What to do with the socks that were taken off? Tao Meng looked around: "Over there, the trash can."

After Yang Jingxing threw away the socks, Tao Meng urged again: "Go wash your hands!"

Yang Jingxing stretched out his hand towards Tao Meng: "It doesn't stink, just smell it."

Tao Meng retreated three feet.

When Yang Jingxing went to the bathroom to wash his hands and came out, Tao Meng gave him a paper towel to completely dry the water on his hands, and said happily: "Fortunately, you still know how to be embarrassed. If you go to my house wearing torn socks, the nanny will laugh at you."

Yang Jingxing said: "Unless she smiles as beautifully as you."

Tao Meng was speechless: "More than forty years old!" He looked at Yang Jingxing and asked: "Do you want to buy anything else?"

Yang Jingxing shook his head repeatedly.

Tao Meng asked: "How many suits do you have?"

Yang Jingxing said: "There are so many tricks that I can't even remember them all."

"Bragging, I've seen this suit before... Your afternoon suit is nice, what brand is it?"

"I have no idea."

Tao Meng said: "You should establish your own taste."

Yang Jingxing said: "Taste, it's too troublesome. You need to taste when you eat, when you listen to music, when you read and watch movies, and even when you drink tea. I don't think so much, but your smile is enough to taste for half a day."

Tao Meng hummed: "You are still very busy."

Yang Jingxing said: "Unless you stop laughing, I will be free."

Tao Meng hummed, smiling even more proudly.

The seventh floor was dedicated to selling gifts, crafts and other items. Tao Meng looked left and right and asked, "How old is Yu Xinting?"

Yang Jingxing said: "This time I am nineteen."

Tao Meng was surprised: "So big? He's half a year older than you."

Yang Jingxing laughed: "He is older than you."

Tao Meng asked: "Are you really born in 1988?"

Yang Jingxing was mean: "Sister Mengmeng."

Tao Meng stared and said seriously: "Do I look older than you? You must be twenty years old!"

Yang Jingxing continued: "Sister Mengmeng."

Comparing the two, Tao Meng lost some of her anger, picked up a fairly beautiful photo frame, and asked, "How about this?"

Yang Jingxing didn't express his opinion: "As long as you say it's okay."

Tao Meng had no idea: "That's it."

Then the two of them went downstairs, and Tao Meng accompanied Yang Jingxing to buy a bouquet of flowers. Yang Jingxing said, "I pretended to give it to grandma, but actually I gave it to you."

Tao Meng was ambitious: "I don't care."

Tao Meng's house is in Building A, and there are rows of elevators in the lobby. Tao Meng swiped her card and said to Yang Jingxing: "There is a nanny elevator behind, don't take the wrong one."

Yang Jingxing said: "I apply for nanny treatment."

Tao Meng looked at Yang Jingxing and wondered: "Are you really unhappy or are you joking?"

Yang Jingxing said: "I'm happy now."

Tao Meng said: "Grandma has said that you should be more generous."

After entering the house via the elevator, you will find a living room of one or two hundred square meters. It is great to have money. The nanny is already waiting at the door. She is an ordinary middle-aged woman, still wearing a scarf, and must be cooking.

Yang Jingxing spoke first: "Hello, sorry to bother you."

"Hello, these are slippers." The nanny smiled brightly.

Yang Jingxing gave the flowers to the nanny who stretched out his hands and said, "Here are the flowers for ***. I wish you a long life and a smile."

Tao Meng's grandma stood behind and laughed: "Come and sit down, have you bought the gift?" The old man was really particular and changed his clothes again.

Tao Meng introduced the nanny again: "This is my high school classmate Yang Jingxing...and a good friend."

The nanny nodded: "Mr. Yang, welcome."

Yang Jingxing was embarrassed: "Call me Xiao Yang." He said to Tao Meng: "I am really from 1988."

Tao Meng was too lazy to answer: "I'm going to change clothes." She told the nanny: "Show him the bathroom."

The decoration of Tao Meng's house is slightly modern, but the colors and lighting are relatively soft, luxurious and elegant. The living room is estimated to be 150 square meters, with several rows of sofas in the middle, a large row of floor-to-ceiling windows to the south, and a grand piano next to the bar to the west.

The nanny pressed a few times on the touch screen panel next to the entrance, probably to turn on the light in the guest bathroom, and then took Yang Jingxing to wash his hands and face.

After Yang Jingxing washed his face, he chatted with Grandma Tao Meng for a while. After finishing a glass of water, Tao Meng came out and changed into some cute home clothes, as if she was getting ready to go to the gym.

Tao Meng sat down next to her grandma and faced Yang Jingxing face to face. She glanced at him and said nothing.

The old man asked his granddaughter: "Are you hungry? You didn't eat anything for lunch."

Tao Meng said: "A bit...what about you?"

Yang Jingxing said: "I'm fine."

The old man suggested: "Xiao Yang, you can play the piano."

Yang Jingxing was happy: "What do you want to hear?"

The old man said: "Play whatever you want."

Yang Jingxing got up and walked to the piano and sat down. Tao Meng also helped her grandma to follow. Yang Jingxing even pretended: "Let me think about it and play something she doesn't know."

Tao Meng said: "Don't think you are so great."

Yang Jingxing thought about it for two minutes before starting to play. It sounded like a very famous folk song, but Tao Meng couldn't name it, so she could only say: "I must have heard it before, but I can't remember the name."

The old man became excited and wanted to applaud with trembling hands: "Okay, Zhou Xuan."

Tao Meng couldn't remember who Zhou Xuan was, but her grandma was so excited that she burst into tears. She was shaking her head and moving her lips as if she wanted to sing along.

Yang Jingxing encouraged: "Grandma, you sing."

The old man was very sorry: "I am old and can't remember the words."

Yang Jingxing played for three or four minutes, and finally ended with a modern ending, looking at Tao Meng proudly.

Tao Meng could only say: "I must have heard of it!"

The old man applauded, still excited: "You've seen the angels on the street, those who work in circles."

I don’t know if Tao Meng remembered it, but she said: "Yes, yes!"

The old man was not satisfied and asked: "You play it again, play it again, and I will sing it."

So Yang Jingxing played again and looked at the old man preparing to remind him. Fortunately, the old man knew music. After entering the melody, he started singing softly: "The end of the world..." There were also many places where he couldn't remember the words, but the old man hummed along.

.

This time it was Yang Jingxing who applauded the old man. The old man was very happy: "I didn't expect you to do this... I really like Zhou Xuan!"

Next, Yang Jingxing and Tao Meng listened to the old man telling stories about chasing stars in his time. The old man seemed to have really returned to his girlhood, a little excited and a little sad.

Yang Jingxing flattered her: "Although that era was not peaceful, there were many artistic achievements that made it possible for a grandma like you to have a granddaughter like Tao Meng. She must have received a lot of influence from you."

The old man responded: "I didn't expect that Mengmeng could meet a friend like you... In fact, my family sent her to your school just to let her have more exposure to people and things at all levels of society, and not to be too pampered."

Yang Jingxing said: "She has always been strict with herself, and her education at home is very successful."

The old man looked at his granddaughter: "Mengmeng, please talk to Xiao Yang more."

Tao Meng was arrogant: "There's nothing to say."

The old man said: "I'll go to the kitchen and have a look."

Yang Jingxing said quickly: "Grandma, please don't go, I'm afraid of her."

The old man chuckled: "You guys chat, dinner is about to begin."

After the old man left, Tao Meng and Yang Jingxing stared at each other for a few seconds. Tao Meng said first, "You came prepared?"

Yang Jingxing felt aggrieved: "How did I know I could come to your house for dinner?"

Tao Meng shrank one foot onto the sofa: "Anyway, you are trying to please grandma."

Yang Jingxing said: "It's your grandma who I'm trying to please, and it's like I owe you a few ounces of money."

Tao Meng twisted her body to get more comfortable and said, "You don't care anyway."

Yang Jingxing threatened: "I'm leaving!"

Tao Meng tilted her head and said, "Let's go!"

Yang Jingxing stood up. Tao Meng bowed her body, leaned forward, and glared at Yang Jingxing fiercely.

Yang Jingxing was frightened and said, "I'm going to wash my hands."

Tao Meng leaned back again and said without looking at Yang Jingxing: "You can take off your tie and get ready to eat."

Dinner started at seven o'clock, and Tao Meng and Yang Jingxing came face to face. The nanny first introduced the four dishes and two soups, one sweet and the other salty. Yang Jingxing liked it very much: "You look so appetizing, why are you so thin?"

Tao Meng said: "I can't eat without you."

When the nanny wasn't there, Yang Jingxing said, "Grandma, let me serve you some soup."

The old man smiled: "No, you can eat it by yourself, just like at home."

Yang Jingxing said: "Then I want it even more."

The old man asked: "How old is your grandma?"

Yang Jingxing said: "I am over sixty and the old man lives with my uncle. I have never been filial to him."

The old man said: "Be more filial. When the old man gets older, he likes to see his children and grandchildren. If you are so successful, your grandparents will be proud of you."

Yang Jingxing said: "You must be more proud. May you be blessed and live longer. Tao Meng, keep up the good work."

Tao Meng taught: "Be quiet while eating."

The old man disagreed: "It's better to talk more and eat slowly for better digestion."

The old man and Tao Meng both ate slowly, so Yang Jingxing controlled his speed and ate the meal for nearly an hour. After chatting with the old man for a while, Yang Jingxing was ready to leave.

The old man was quite reluctant to leave: "Come here often when you have time, grandma likes you."

Yang Jingxing was happy: "Thank you, grandma."

Tao Meng wanted to see Yang Jingxing off, otherwise his car wouldn't be able to drive out without the card. The two of them took the elevator downstairs. Tao Meng handed the small bag with socks to Yang Jingxing and said, "What about Wednesday?"

Yang Jingxing said, "Let's have a meal together."

Tao Meng asked: "Have you discussed it yet?"

Yang Jingxing said: "No, try to give it a surprise."

Tao Meng nodded and asked, "Are there many people?"

Yang Jingxing was unsure: "It won't be too many, just a few people. We'll know when the time comes."

Tao Meng asked again: "Why are you surprised? Maybe she has made an appointment with someone else."

Yang Jingxing said: "Then we will come uninvited."

Tao Meng refused: "I'm not very familiar with her."

Yang Jingxing said: "Even people you don't know can still say happy birthday."

Tao Meng said: "You have no class on Wednesday afternoon. Come pick me up and bring me to your home."

Yang Jingxing agreed: "Okay... don't dress up too beautifully and steal the limelight from the birthday girl."

Tao Meng was angry: "This is my right, right? It's not marriage! You are so lenient!"

Yang Jingxing said: "If there are other boys, I am not responsible for your safety."

Tao Meng shouted: "Do I still have to cover my face?"

Yang Jingxing said: "That won't work, you have to cover up your figure...don't worry, it's not your fault that you are beautiful."

Tao Meng hummed: "Do I have to do this for every one of your friends' birthdays?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Next time it will be you. No matter how beautiful or well-dressed you are, you can scare me to death."

Tao Meng said disdainfully: "Who knows when."

Yang Jingxing said: "I don't know... I don't remember. I really don't remember. I really don't remember. Don't tell me either."

Tao Meng turned her face and smiled, and her eyes met with Yang Jingxing's in the elevator mirror. Yang Jingxing laughed: "I saw it." Tao Meng turned to the other direction with force.

After the car drove out of the parking lot, Tao Meng said, "I'm going back then. Please be careful on the road."
