The two sat down in the courtyard. This courtyard, which was a neighbor of the Forbidden City, was filled with imperial aura, which added a lot of majestic aura to Aunt Luo's status as an elder. However, this old woman was serious with other people, but very peaceful with Su Ran. After all, the two of them had no other interests. You didn't want me to help you with anything, and I didn't want your money. This was very pure, so they got along very easily with each other. There was no need to look back when talking. It was completely like two equal people chatting.
After all, every day she has to face those people who try to get close to her and want to recognize her as their mother or grandmother and take care of her in her old age. Who knows, behind her back they might just wish that the old woman would die soon so that the money would be hers after she dies? So, Aunt Luo is very satisfied to meet a pure friend like Su Ran who she can talk to.
"...Didn't I hear Reba say you were an orphan? What about your Uncle Qin you mentioned just now?" Aunt Luo personally brewed a pot of tea for Su Ran and found a random excuse to start the conversation. It wasn't that she really wanted to know about Su Ran's life experience. When chatting, she naturally spoke freely and talked about family matters.
Su Ran tapped the table lightly to thank her for pouring the tea, and said, "Did Reba really tell you that I was an orphan?"
"yes."
"The Uncle Qin I'm talking about is a five-guarantee household in our village. I also have an uncle, but she actually forgot about him and even said I'm an orphan!"
Su Ran gritted her teeth, feeling indignant. She actually dared to call me an orphan. If she saw her in Shangri-La at night, she would definitely beat her to pieces.
"So, do you have a girlfriend?"
"Check the household registration?"
"Just chatting."
"Yes, which rich family's girl is she from?"
Aunt Luo didn't mention Reba at all. She had never thought about it. After all, with such status, who would want a female star as a girlfriend? The circles at the top of the food chain all play with female stars, but don't talk about feelings. For example, Wang Siming, to put it nicely, is looking for a girlfriend, but in fact he is just playing with women. If you really want to be a girlfriend, those Internet celebrities are not qualified. Well... because of a very uncomfortable and realistic problem - young people at the top of the food chain like pure women. If they really want to find a girl to fall in love with sincerely, she must have never been touched by anyone. This is called returning to nature.
Because young people at the top of the food chain are different from ordinary people. They have the right to choose. There are too many girls, both virgins and non-virgins, lining up to be their girlfriends, so they naturally choose the best ones.
"I'm asking you a question. Whose girl is this?"
"It's your family's business, you're meddling too much."
The main thing was that Su Ran couldn't answer which family the girl came from. "Xiao family, Liu family, Xie family, or Shan family?" So she simply didn't answer.
"I'm asking you this for your own good. If you don't have a girlfriend, I can introduce you to one. I know a lot of girls in the capital who come from well-off families. They're sure to like a handsome and talented young man like Mr. Su."
"Young lady from an official family?"
"Yeah, I'll just introduce you to someone. From now on, you can walk around the country like a tyrant and no one will mess with you."
"Forget it..." Su Ran shook his head, "You can't afford to offend the eldest daughter of an official family."
I thought, isn't that courting death? Having a girlfriend who is the daughter of an official family, let's put it this way, the higher the official rank of the father, the more tightly bound he is. So what if he is a wealthy man? He still has to retreat in front of power. If the daughter of the housekeeper falls in love with you, your life will be difficult and you won't be able to have fun. If you dare to cheat, her father will not let you off easily.
"I just want to be an ordinary person and can't afford to offend those daughters of officials. Don't blame me. What about you? Have you found a partner?" Su Ran asked back.
"Me? Haha, I'm an old woman living a carefree life, why would I need a companion?"
"Don't say that. Find a companion to chat with. How about I introduce you to one? Your husband passed away, and the wife of Mr. Qin I just mentioned also passed away. You two would be a perfect match."
"Awei, please see you off."
"Hahaha……"
"Who are you to tease an old woman like me? Do you have any sense of public morality?"
Aunt Luo stood up and walked towards the dining room, cursing and laughing. Su Ran followed her and teased, "I just wanted to make you feel less lonely. You see, as soon as I mentioned the devil, Uncle Qin called me. Why don't you two chat for a while? In case something sparks hot pot, right?"
Aunt Luo ignored her and strode into the dining room. Su Ran answered the phone and sat down in the dining room. "Hello, Uncle Qin, what's the matter?"
Aunt Luo, standing by, called on the chef to serve the dishes. She took down a bottle of Romande-Conti from the wine cabinet. Su Ran was stunned. How could she bear to part with it? Uncle Qin's anxious voice came to her ears: "Xiao Su, I lost the pocket watch that Shumin gave me. I don't know where I lost it and I can't find it."
"Don't worry, don't worry. Just look for it carefully. If you can't find it, I'll ask Wenwen to look for it for you. Don't worry..."
Su Ran did not think of asking the villagers for help. As the saying goes, village guards are not welcome. They will be called when they need something, but they will not even be given a table for dinner if they don't need anything, let alone help finding things. Wenwen has a good relationship with Uncle Qin. Because of Su Ran, she has no prejudice against Uncle Qin. Uncle Qin does have a pocket watch, which was given to him by his wife Luo Shumin before he went to Vietnam to fight. She didn't know the meaning of it when they first met. Giving him the watch was an implicit expression, "Don't leave, stay."
"...Look for it first. If you can't find it, call me. Okay, don't get excited. Bye."
After hanging up the phone, Aunt Luo had already poured a glass of red wine and was holding it up. Su Ran clinked glasses with her. Aunt Luo smiled and asked what national events were. Su Ran said, "Nothing serious. It's just that Uncle Qin, as I just mentioned, lost the gift his late wife had given him. Come, Aunt Luo thanks you for the Romanti Conti. This glass of wine is for you."
