"This London is the capital of Great Britain. There is..." Faced with Ren Tingting's curiosity, Hao Shuai slowly explained to her some aspects of London.
Although Hao Shuai has never been to London, the Internet in the modern world is so developed that he still knows some basic conditions in London. He immediately explained to Ren Tingting about St. Paul's Cathedral, Big Ben, the Thames River, etc.
Master Ren saw that Hao Shuai and his daughter were chatting very happily, and he was also cheerful on the side. At the same time, he reached out to call the waiter, took the menu, handed it to Uncle Jiu, and asked: "What do you want to drink?"
Uncle Jiu took the menu and opened it. He saw all the foreign characters that he didn't recognize. They were like tadpole characters. He was immediately dumbfounded.
Hao Shuai saw Uncle Jiu's embarrassment and knew it was time for him to appear. He immediately took the menu and said: "Master, just leave such small things as ordering to the apprentice."
The menu only has two pages, one page is for drinks, coffee, black tea, etc., and the other page is for desserts, including various fruit pies, egg tarts, etc.
"Master, do you want sweeter milk tea or bitterer coffee?" Hao Shuai asked.
"We came to a Western restaurant, so let's try the bitter coffee!" Uncle Jiu understood that milk tea should be made of milk and tea, but he had never heard of coffee, so he wanted to try it.
"Senior brother, I also want coffee." Wen Cai, who was pretending to be quail, said at the right moment.
"Then three cups of coffee and an apple pie!" Hao Shuai said to the waiter and gave the menu to Ren Tingting.
"Bring me a cup of coffee, too." Seeing how Hao Shuai could read the English menu and order proficiently, Ren Tingting became even more convinced that Hao Shuai had returned from abroad.
"Uncle Jiu, regarding my late father's coffin removal and burial? I wonder if you can choose a date?"
After ordering something, Mr. Ren and Uncle Jiu also chatted about business. Hao Shuai and Ren Tingting stopped chatting when they saw their elders talking about things and listened intently to their elders.
"Well, Mr. Ren, I think you should think about it. It's better to be quiet than to move about this kind of thing."
Uncle Jiu advised that after all, lifting the coffin and relocating the burial was a big deal. If one person did not take good care of it, it might affect future generations. And Uncle Jiu was not a mercenary person and would always consider others first.
"I have thought about this matter carefully. The Feng Shui master back then said that the coffin must be moved and buried twenty years from now. This would be best for our Ren family." Mr. Ren shook his head slightly and rejected Uncle Nine's proposal.
"Master Ren, since you have decided, we will break ground and raise the coffin in three days." Seeing that Master Ren was determined to do this, he stopped trying to dissuade him and told him what he thought would be a good day.
Master Ren asked: "Then what should we prepare?"
"Well, just prepare the sacrificial offerings, incense candles, paper money." Uncle Jiu was an expert in this field and gave the instructions very skillfully.
"Okay, I'll let my servants prepare it." Master Ren wrote down the things that needed to be prepared and nodded.
Because Wen Cai had just been educated by Hao Shuai, he did not dare to interrupt and make Uncle Jiu unhappy like in the original plot, so the whole conversation went smoothly.
At this time, the restaurant manager came to Master Ren and whispered: "Master Ren, Huang Baiwan is here, right over there."
"Oh, Uncle Jiu, I'll go over there and say hello. You can do whatever you want. Tingting, greet Uncle Jiu and the others for me."
Master Ren apologized to Uncle Jiu and warned his daughter at the same time.
"Master Ren, please excuse me."
"I will, Dad!"
As soon as Mr. Ren left, the waiter brought coffee and apple pie and placed them in front of several people.
Looking at the two drinks in front of them, one black and one white, Uncle Jiu and Wencai were a little dumbfounded and didn't know where to start.
And because Ren Tingting's attention was entirely on Hao Shuai at the moment, she had no time to play tricks on Uncle Jiu and Wencai.
"Master, do you want dessert or something bitter?" Hao Shuai took the initiative to mix the coffee in front of Uncle Jiu and asked.
"Be sweet!"
When Hao Shuai heard this, he scooped a large spoonful of sugar into the coffee, stirred it, and said, "Master, you can drink it."
"Okay!" Uncle Jiu believed 100% in his beloved disciple, so he picked up the mixed coffee and took a sip.
"Master, try some foreign desserts." Hao Shuai picked up a piece of apple pie and handed it to Uncle Jiu, then picked up another piece and gave it to Ren Tingting, "Miss Ren, please."
"Thank you!" Ren Tingting shyly took the apple pie from Hao Shuai.
"Senior brother, I want it too!" Wencai, a notorious bastard, said.
"Take it yourself!" Hao Shuai glared at him.
They just had a few bites of apple pie. Mr. Ren came back quickly. Ren Tingting didn't want to sit here and talk about serious things, so she said, "Dad, I want to buy some rouge and gouache."
"Go ahead and be careful on the road. I'll look for you when I get better." Mr. Ren, who doted on his daughter, agreed without thinking.
"I wonder if Mr. Hao can accompany me? I also want to hear you talk about some foreign things." Ren Tingting looked at Hao Shuai with a blushing face and invited.
"Master, look at this~~" Hao Shuai is of course happy to go shopping with a beautiful woman. It's better than sitting here watching three old men. But he still has to ask Uncle Jiu for his opinion.
"Go ahead, I'll look for you when Master Ren and I have settled the matter." Uncle Jiu agreed immediately when he saw that he had almost finished drinking the foreign tea and no longer needed Hao Shuai's help.
The old and smart Uncle Jiu also saw that Ren Tingting was interested in Hao Shuai, and he was happy to facilitate this matter. The Maoshan sect did not prohibit marriage anyway.
"Master, I'll leave first. Master Ren, take your leave." Hao Shuai stood up and left the western restaurant side by side with Ren Tingting.
…
Hao Shuai accompanied Ren Tingting out of the western restaurant and walked directly towards the rouge shop not far away. On the way, Ren Tingting asked her about things that interested her from time to time.
That is to say, Hao Shuai has a lot of information, otherwise he would really be unable to resist the curious babies with a hundred thousand questions.
After a while, the two of them arrived in front of the Rouge Shop. As soon as Hao Shuai saw the sign, he knew that this was Aunt Qiu Sheng's shop.
After entering, he saw Qiu Sheng dozing there with his head propped up in boredom.
"Senior brother, why are you here?" Qiu Sheng immediately woke up when he saw Hao Shuai coming in.
"Oh, I'm going out with Master to do something." Hao Shuai replied, then turned to Ren Tingting and said: "Tingting, this is my junior brother Qiu Sheng, Qiu Sheng, this is Master Ren's daughter, Ren Tingting.
"
On the way to Rouge Pu, Hao Shuai had successfully changed the names of the two parties to Tingting and Brother Hao.
"Hello!" Ren Tingting greeted politely knowing that Qiu Sheng was Hao Shuai's senior brother.
"Hello, Miss Ren, please take a look!" Looking at the beautiful Ren Tingting in front of him, Qiu Sheng greeted with some pity. He had already seen the ambiguous relationship between Hao Shuai and Ren Tingting, and he only regretted that he knew it too late.
As for poaching senior brother Hao Shuai?
Qiu Sheng never dared to have this idea, because it would remind him of the fear of being dominated by his senior brother.
Hao Shuai didn't know what Qiu Sheng was thinking, otherwise he would have shown disdain and said: Even if you get to know Ren Tingting first, she will not choose you. There is no reason. Just because Hao Shuai, I am richer and better than you.
Stronger, and most importantly, handsomer than you!
While Qiu Sheng was thinking wildly, Ren Tingting had already browsed through all the rouge and gouache on the counter.
