Because Ma Lan was injured in her leg, she rarely went out for a while, so she had already felt a little uncomfortable.
It just so happened that Xiao Churan said that he was going to the United States. Ma Lan’s first thought when he heard this was that he must go out to see the world.
Besides, she knew that Ye Chen was making money easily now, and she didn't want to miss this good opportunity to go out with Ye Chen. Maybe Ye Chen could buy something for herself.
When Xiao Churan heard that his mother said she wanted to go with her, she felt a little embarrassed.
She felt that it would be the best solution to just Ye Chen with her. If she brought her mother with her, the situation would be a bit embarrassing.
So she advised Ma Lan: "Mom, I think you should have a good rest at home. The United States has high mountains and long roads, so it is not easy to go there. Besides, you have no friends there, so it is easy to get upset.
”
Ma Lan blurted without hesitation: "Will you be bothered? You have to wait until you go first. I'm almost bored when I stay at home for a while. No matter what you said, I can't leave me alone at home.
.”
Xiao Churan suddenly lost his mind and could only look at Ye Chen with a helpless look on his face. I wonder if Ye Chen had any good way to let his mother give up this idea.
Ye Chen also wants Ma Lan to give up.
So he said rationally: "Mom, Churan went to the United States this time to attend a master class and go to further his studies. He may be very busy at that time. If you can't take care of you, you are
Isn’t it boring to stay there?"
"It's okay." Ma Lan said without thinking: "It doesn't matter if you don't care about me. If you don't care about me, I'll go out for a walk by myself. I haven't been to the United States anyway. Then I will definitely find it fresh everywhere."
Speaking of this, Ma Lan was already in a state of fascination and said excitedly: "When we were young, it was the hottest stage of going abroad. At that time, the TV broadcast "Yanjing People in New York".
People dream of having the opportunity to go out of the past and take a look. At that time, I dreamed of going to the United States, and I wanted to see the Statue of Liberty with my own eyes and the Avenue of Stars in Hollywood, but I haven't had the chance to go out for so many years
,This time, I finally had a chance to dream come true!”
Ye Chen thought to himself: "Your dream has come true. What should I do with Churan? If you really go with you, will the world of Churan and I be destroyed by you?"
Thinking of this, Ye Chen immediately spoke, "Mom, let me say to myself, your legs are not well yet, and you really need to take a good rest. You can't run around and toss around. If you ran to the United States so early, you would go everywhere.
If you travel around, it may affect your reply and leave behind sequelae."
As he said that, Ye Chen smiled slightly and said, "In my opinion, you might as well stay in Jinling and take a steadily rest. It just so happens that you have a good relationship with Qian Hongyan now, so you can let her spend more time with you."
Ma Lan said almost without thinking: "No! You all leave by then, leave me alone at home. I will be scared to death if I live in such a big house alone!"
Ye Chen hurriedly said, "Mom, I will leave you 500,000 pocket money before leaving. After we have been away for more than a month, you can do whatever you want in Jinling. If you have nothing to do, ask Qian Hongyan to accompany you.
Going out for shopping, shopping, beauty, and then doing spas is not much more comfortable than following us to the United States to run around?"
When Ma Lan heard Ye Chen say he wanted to give him 500,000 pocket money, he asked excitedly: "Good son-in-law, you... do you really want to give your mother 500,000?! You shouldn't have been deliberately lying to mom, take it
Mom is looking for happiness?"
Ye Chen knew that money was definitely much more useful to Ma Lan than the Statue of Liberty.
Seeing that Ma Lan has indeed thrown the American dream behind his head, he smiled and said, "Mom, when will I be happy with you? Don't worry, as long as you recover from your injuries in Jinling, I will definitely fulfill these 500,000 as soon as possible.
!”
Ma Lan immediately said happily: "Good son-in-law! Then we have a decision! You can't regret anything you say!"
Ye Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mom, I won't go back on my word. I will definitely give you the money before Churan and I go to the United States!"
"Okay!" Ma Lan said without hesitation: "Since that's the case, I won't follow you so far to the United States!"
Ye Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was obvious to the naked eye that his wife Xiao Churan, who was standing beside him, also felt much more relieved at this moment, as if a heart that was hanging over was finally relieved.
At this time, Xiao Churan said to Ye Chen with a relaxed look on his face: "Honey, since that's the case, I'll give Kelly a clear answer and tell her that I will attend this master class."
Ye Chen nodded and smiled, "Come back to her, and then quickly determine the itinerary. I will arrange the time and book the air ticket by the way."
Xiao Churan nodded repeatedly and said excitedly: "I'll call her now!"
After saying that, he immediately took his cell phone and ran out of the house happily and went to the yard.
A few minutes later, she came back excitedly and said to Ye Chen: "Honey, I have confirmed with Kelly. We can set off on the 28th of the month!"
When Ye Chen heard about the 28th, he breathed a sigh of relief. The auction time was set at the 25th, which was just enough to give himself a few days to finish.
So Ye Chen said without thinking: "Okay, then I'll book the air ticket for No. 28, and book a hotel near the Rhode Island Design Institute, and leave on time on the 28th."
"That's great!" Xiao Churan happily circled in the spot and said excitedly: "Then I will start packing our luggage tomorrow!"
...
In fact, Ye Chen was more or less resistant to going to the United States.
This is mainly because his grandfather and his family have taken root in the United States and have a great family and have great business. He is afraid that he will be known to his grandfather and his family after he arrives in the United States.
Ye Chen had no grudges with his grandfather's family, but because after his mother had some conflicts with her family about marrying her father, she was somewhat alienated from her grandfather's family from her mother.
Therefore, he remembered that he met his grandparents only a handful of times.
Later, when his parents passed away, Ye Chen was hidden in the Jinling Welfare Home by Tang Sihai. He completely cut off contact with his grandparents' family. It has been nearly twenty years since then.
Therefore, he became even more distant from his grandparents' family and did not want to disturb his grandparents' lives.
However, since going to Rhode Island Design Institute is his wife's life ideal, in order to make his wife come true, he can only choose to go with her wife.
In Ye Chen's opinion, if you go to the United States this time, it is naturally the best way to avoid having any interaction with your grandparents and their family;
However, if the two sides inevitably have some intersection, then they can only have polite greetings. The only thing to pay attention to is not to let your wife Xiao Churan know.
Ye Chen is used to being alone. Although he is not a social phobia, he has some resistance to most social activities. If it is just a greeting between relatives due to sympathy, it will be very important for him.
I was uncomfortable and would rather not have any contact than just want everyone to greet each other in a hypocritical manner.
Moreover, Ye Chen also has self-knowledge.
He felt that grandparents were already alienated from him, not to mention that so many years have passed, and his mother has long been gone, and grandparents are probably also alienated from him.
