Don't talk nonsense, this is the Emperor's Banner

Chapter 249 First Impression
Jiang Yingxue is a very resourceful and intelligent person.

Although she was very surprised and curious when she heard Shen Siyuan say that someone had given him a house, she still controlled her temper and did not ask on the spot.

On the one hand, she believed that there was no difference between asking her daughter and asking Shen Siyuan in person.

Because of this incident, any man would be proud of it and then brag about it in front of a woman. In this case, asking the daughter directly the reason would be simpler and clearer.

On the other hand, Shen Siyuan is currently just Ruan Hongzhuang's boyfriend, and they are not yet at the stage of discussing marriage. Besides, no one can say for sure about matters of the heart, so it is still unknown whether they can be together in the future.

So she didn't want to embarrass her daughter now. After all, this was the first boy her daughter liked, and she couldn't let him spoil her mood. Even if they were not together in the future, she hoped to be a beautiful memory for her daughter.

So the following conversation was not so sharp anymore, and instead we talked about the fun attractions and delicious food in Binhai.

"I have actually been to Binhai many times. The first time was more than 30 years ago. At that time, Binhai was just a small fishing village..."

"Wow, Auntie, have you come to Binhai so early?" Shen Siyuan was a little surprised.

"Well, I had a classmate who lived in Binhai at that time. A few of us went to her house to play, and that was the first time we saw the sea."

Jiang Yingxue smiled as she looked at the sea outside the window, seemingly lost in some beautiful memories.

"Huh? There is such a thing, I have never heard you mention it before. Why didn't I see you go to see her when you came here several times before?"

"We lost contact a long time ago. Binhai has changed so much that we can't find him at all." Obviously, she had looked for him but couldn't find him.

"What a pity! You must have a very good relationship." Jiang Taozhi also felt regretful.

She thought of herself and Ruan Hongzhuang. If one day she lost contact with Ruan Hongzhuang and she couldn't find herself when she came to Binhai, she would definitely be very sad, right?
Thinking of this, she looked at Ruan Hongzhuang who was sitting opposite her.

Ruan Hongzhuang seemed to be thinking of the same question as her, and looked at her, giving her a comforting look.

Jiang Taozhi smiled and thought that it should be impossible.

In today's society, unless one party takes the initiative to cut off contact, it is impossible to lose contact. After all, in the past, the only way to contact was basically by writing letters.

But when Jiang Yingxue heard this, she gave everyone an unexpected answer.

"We don't have a good relationship and we often quarrel when we meet."

She said this, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise. It was obvious that the relationship was not as simple as she said.

"I don't believe you. If you two don't have a good relationship, how can she invite you to her house? If you two don't have a good relationship, how can you go to her house?"

The past was different from now. From Siming to Binhai, there were really thousands of mountains and rivers. Not only did you have to take a train for several days and nights, but you also had to take a long boat ride.

If we didn't have a good relationship, how could we go so far to visit our classmate's house? This is actually a very dangerous thing to do.

"Haha, it's true. When she saw me, she called me Miss, so I nicknamed her Little Seagull."

Afraid that people might not understand, she explained, "At that time, 'young lady' was not a nice word. It was an insult to me, a capitalist. But my family conditions were better back then, and she was just a country girl. As for why I nicknamed her 'Little Seagull', it was because she was from the seaside, lively, talkative, and noisy..."

Jiang Yingxue couldn't stop laughing before she finished speaking.

The happiest thing about today's meeting was talking about the past.

Everyone sat in the teahouse for a while, and then moved to the restaurant that Ruan Hongzhuang had booked in advance.

On the way back, Ruan Hongzhuang was still driving, but Shen Siyuan sat in the passenger seat.

"Xiao Shen, you still need to take another driver's license test, so that it will be more convenient for you to travel in the future."

"Okay, Auntie." Shen Siyuan responded casually.

Ruan Hongzhuang laughed out loud. She had said something similar to Shen Siyuan before. Shen Siyuan said that he would fly on a sword in the future. She thought he was joking at the time, but she didn't expect that he would actually mean it.

Jiang Yingxue was a little confused as to what was so funny about her words, so she glared at Ruan Hongzhuang through the rearview mirror.

When they arrived at the restaurant and saw the table full of sumptuous dishes, Jiang Yingxue frowned and felt a little distressed.

Although she is rich, she still keeps some of her old habits, such as not wasting food.

"This is too much. In fact, we shouldn't have gone to the teahouse just now." Jiang Yingxue said.

We ordered a lot of food in the teahouse just now, and Jiang Yingxue also ate some. She is not hungry at all now.

"It's okay. Siyuan has a big appetite, and... the peaches can be eaten too, so they won't be wasted."

"Eh? Don't talk nonsense."

"Please swallow what's in your mouth before you talk to me."

"Oh~"

Jiang Yingxue, who was sitting next to him, was amused by Jiang Taozhi's hamster-like appearance, so she didn't continue talking.

Then she saw how much Shen Siyuan really ate. As expected, he didn't waste anything and was really a big eater.

So much so that she looked at the other person's abdomen frequently and impolitely, very curious about where all these things had gone. Could it be that there really was a dimensional stomach?

Looking at the shiny bowls and plates, Ruan Hongzhuang showed off to Jiang Yingxue with some pride.

"I'll just say it."

Jiang Yingxue thought, what is there to be proud of? Fortunately, my family still has some assets, otherwise a son-in-law like this would bankrupt her family just by eating them out.

At this moment, Jiang Taozhi was really envious. Looking at Shen Siyuan, her eyes were twinkling with little stars. What a perfect dining partner they were.

Jiang Taozhi likes to eat, but her appetite is not big. She often wants to eat but cannot. If she buys too little of the delicious food she wants, the food will not be sold to her. She is a coward and a playful person. If she had a boyfriend like Shen Siyuan, she would be so happy.

"Humph~"

She looked at Ruan Hongzhuang, whose face was flushed, and snorted. This bad woman had stolen her boyfriend.

After dinner, Shen Siyuan went to the bathroom and Ruan Hongzhuang went to pay the bill.

This made Jiang Yingxue frown again. How could she let a girl pay the bill, especially since she was going to meet the girl's parents today?

What she didn't know was that whenever the two of them went out, it was usually Ruan Hongzhuang who paid the bill, and Shen Siyuan never knew what embarrassment meant.

She has money, so as a girlfriend, it's okay for her to take advantage of me. It's reasonable...

Of course, this is just a joke. It's just that because of his own strength, his attitude towards money has changed. He doesn't care about it as much as before. After all, who would cherish something that is easily available?

After Ruan Hongzhuang paid the bill, Shen Siyuan appeared with a bouquet of roses.

"Thank you." Ruan Hongzhuang took it happily.

This is today's rose.

Jiang Yingxue, however, frowned as she watched. Her silly daughter was deceived by such a crude method.

But she still said nothing and prepared to have a good talk with her daughter tonight.

A person may not have ability or ambition, but he must have character problems.

After coming out of the restaurant, several people went their separate ways. Even Jiang Taozhi did not stay with Ruan Hongzhuang anymore, but took a taxi home.

After all, the mother and daughter haven't seen each other for a long time, and we can't always disturb their reunion.

And this time, Jiang Yingxue finally sat in the passenger seat.

As soon as she got in the car, she began to analyze Shen Siyuan to her daughter based on her experience and perspective.

"He gave me a very strange feeling. He was full of confidence, which was his advantage..."

"But I didn't realize where his confidence came from. Apart from his looks, there didn't seem to be anything particularly outstanding about him..."

"He has a very good personality, but I don't know if he's just pretending..."

"But it shouldn't be the case. He's already 26 years old and has accomplished nothing. People with no ability usually have good personalities. Only capable people have bad tempers..."

"But he's a bit stingy. He disappeared when the bill came and only came out after the bill was paid. You paid for the teahouse before, too. This is not acceptable. It's not a matter of money..."

……

Jiang Yingxue said a lot of things in a row, but they were basically all about Shen Siyuan's shortcomings.

Finally, he frowned and said doubtfully: "I don't know if it's my illusion, but he seems to be looking down on people..."

Ruan Hongzhuang, who had been just making "hmm" and "ah" sounds without expressing any opinions, seemed to become interested after hearing this.

"Look down? What do you mean?"

"It's that feeling of being high and mighty, looking down on others. Although he always has a smile on his face, the way he looks at people, the tone of his voice, etc., actually have a faint sense of alienation, giving people the feeling of looking down on others. This... this feeling, I have only felt it in some people who are in high positions and have great power and whose words are law..."

Ruan Hongzhuang remained silent after hearing this. She naturally understood the reason. How could a person who was like a god himself treat every mortal equally? Dragons do not live with snakes, and Peng does not roost with birds. It is just the same truth.

At this moment, Ruan Hongzhuang was a little scared. Although she didn't feel this alienation from Shen Siyuan now, she was afraid that she would lose Shen Siyuan one day.

She suddenly felt an urge to turn around and go back to find him, but she suppressed it temporarily.

"I'm talking to you."

"I know."

"What do you mean?"

"You are right."

"and then?"

"There's nothing else. I just like him. What do you think I should do?" Ruan Hongzhuang said with a smile after adjusting her mood.

"Alas, you are hopeless." Jiang Yingxue also felt a headache when she saw her like this.

When she got home, Jiang Yingxue took her luggage into the side room with ease. After all, it was not her first time here, and Ruan Hongzhuang had specially reserved a room for her.

When she came out of the room, she saw Ruan Hongzhuang pouring her a glass of water and handing it to her.

"Thank you. I'm actually a little thirsty. Binhai is good in every way except that the temperature is too high."

Jiang Yingxue fanned her cheeks twice with her hands, indicating that she couldn't stand the heat.

She had just taken a sip of water when Ruan Hongzhuang suddenly handed her a small green pill.

"What is this?" Jiang Yingxue asked curiously.

"Duyao, you've talked too much today." Ruan Hongzhuang said coldly.

Jiang Yingxue: ...
