Chapter 229 It's just right
Chapter 229 Well, just right
Yuan blue and white?
Mingdai's head buzzed, and she quickly remembered the relevant news.
The most eye-catching one is undoubtedly...the auction price is over 100 million.
Over 100 million... If my uncle's collection is of this level, she can't even afford it if he sells it, right?
Fortunately, Ling Xiu went on to say: "But your uncle is not really enthusiastic about these things. He has always been emotionally weak. After he learns and fully masters a skill, he will stop his interest and not let himself become addicted. Otherwise, how could he have done it before?
Will some eminent monk say that your little uncle is suitable for practicing Buddhism? He is said to be a born practitioner!"
Mingdai opened her eyes wide and listened very attentively.
Thanks to Aunt Lingxiu, Mingdai can still hear the inside stories of these little uncles!
Xia Ling listened with great interest, and also saw Mingdai's curiosity, so she urged:
"Then what else is my uncle interested in? Mom, please tell me more!"
Ling Xiu dismissed the two juniors as just gossip and continued without thinking too much:
"Looking at the way He Mu is now, do you think that he is as pure as a cultivator? No, he also has moments of rebellion, but his rebellion is different from others. He likes to push the limits, so he has a little time to go crazy.
He is addicted to extreme sports, racing, skydiving, surfing, skiing... he has played them all! Oh, by the way, he also has a pilot's license!"
Xia Ling twitched her lips: "My uncle's rebellious way is really unique. What happens if he plays extreme sports?"
Ming Dai had the same doubts in her eyes as Xia Ling.
Ling Xiu raised her eyebrows: "Didn't I just say that? Your uncle usually learns and fully masters a skill. For all the things I mentioned above, he has reached a professional level and has a license!"
"Wow!" Ming Dai accidentally sighed.
Ling Xiu was so happy that she said as if to a child: "You two must also learn from your uncle's perseverance!"
Mingdai didn't say anything.
Instead, it was Xia Ling: "Forget it, Mom, there is a difference between humans and gods."
Ling Xiu was stunned: "It seems so?"
Soon all the clothes will be packed.
Lingxiu had already asked the staff to help send her to Mingdai's car.
Mingdai wanted to secretly write down the bill so that she could repay the gift with the same value in the future.
And Lingxiu: "The bill will be delivered to my house."
"Okay Ms. Ling."
Mingdai's hope failed and she was quite disappointed.
Xia Ling saw through her little thoughts and joked: "Okay, why don't you think about a gift for your uncle."
Mingdai really took advantage of the situation and became distressed.
Walking out of the store, my eyes searched around randomly, and suddenly stopped at a certain location——
It's too expensive and I can't afford it, and my uncle doesn't have any special preferences. Why not give him something that he needs most in this season?
Xia Ling followed her gaze and saw: "Scarf?"
Have you ever seen your uncle wearing a scarf before? It seems very rare.
Mingdai hummed: "How about the scarf? Is it suitable?"
Xia Ling nodded decisively: "It's quite suitable."
So I walked into the store that Mingdai liked.
It is a famous old luxury brand that started with cashmere. The overall style is restrained and minimalist, which matches He Mu's temperament at first glance.
Mingdai picked a gray cashmere scarf, which felt as delicate and silky as baby skin. The price was nearly 10,000 yuan.
SA smiled and asked: "Is it a gift for your boyfriend?"
Mingdai shook her head: "No, send it to the elders."
Xia Ling:......
"Ahem, Dede, it's almost time. If it's any later, there will be a traffic jam."
After Xia Ling's urging, the scarf was quickly packed and put in a gift box, with Ming Dai holding it in her hand.
Ms. Ling Xiu said goodbye to the two of them at the entrance of the mall: "I made an appointment with Ling Ling's father, you guys have a good time tonight!"
He waved his hand and got into the car on the roadside.
Xia Ling murmured in a low voice: "You also said that you don't want to live in a world with two people..."
Just as the nanny car driven by Sister Hui arrived, Ming Dai and Xia Ling got in one after another.
Sister Hui hesitated to speak, and Mingdai looked back... The back seat was filled with clothes and bags, which meant that the nanny car had enough space. If it were an ordinary car, it might not even be able to fit in it.
Xia Ling: "It's all small things!"
Mingdai: "Then let's go, Sister Hui."
The vehicle drove out according to the location shared with Mu.
Along the way, Ming Dai and Xia Ling chatted together, and they didn't feel that time had passed, and they quickly reached their destination.
Xia Ling didn't know where it was before she came, but after she came: "Oh, it's here."
Ming Dai looked at the empty door with a strange sign: "Have you been here?"
Xia Ling: "I've been here once or twice, my uncle likes this store better."
Mingdai was happy and satisfied.
She was worried that in order to save money for her, her uncle would choose relatively affordable stores that she didn't like to go to.
"Then let's go in!"
Mingdai stepped forward briskly.
This restaurant is probably a private restaurant. It is located in an alley in Old Yanjing. The building looks like a simple and elegant courtyard house. The door is tightly closed. If you don’t come here specially, I am afraid that people passing by will not think of this place at all.
restaurant.
Mingdai came to the door first, hesitating whether to knock directly or look for the doorbell.
Unexpectedly, the courtyard door automatically opened to her, and a waiter in a horse-faced skirt and cape stood behind the door, holding a lantern in his hand and bending slightly toward Ming Dai and Xia Ling, as if the ancient times had torn apart paper and come to life.
The waiter's voice was slow and melodious: "Is this Miss Mingdai? Please come with me."
As he spoke, he took the lead and walked in front.
Mingdai was curious, why could the other party recognize her at a glance? Was it because her uncle had specifically ordered her?
She soon learned that she met almost no one along the way in.
The entire mansion was immersed in the silence of the night, isolated from the world.
The maid was silent all the way, leading Ming Dai and Xia Ling to their destination, saying "please come in", and then quietly disappeared at the end of the corridor.
The wooden door of the private room was opened, and the man sitting behind the tea table raised his eyes upon hearing the sound.
The graceful bamboo screen is his background. The man's body is like a pine tree, and his features are as vast as the wind and snow covering thousands of mountains.
A faint smile appeared subconsciously on the lips, but unfortunately it just bloomed and then condensed slightly.
"...Ling Ling?"
No matter how majestic and high-spirited Xia Ling was before she came, now she can't help but become cowardly and extremely well-behaved.
"Uncle, long time no see, hehe."
Mingdai saw the inexplicable awkwardness between the two and took the initiative to explain:
"I asked Lingling to accompany me here! Sorry, uncle, I forgot to tell you in advance."
"No, you are the one treating me."
He Mu smiled and comforted Ming Dai.
In fact, before coming here, He Mu also thought that it seemed a bit strange to eat alone with Mingdai.
Especially since Mingdai is a public figure, if she is photographed and posted online, there may be repercussions.
So He Mu specially asked the owner of a private restaurant he knew well to free up the entire restaurant tonight.
Now that Xia Ling is here, it's just the right time.
Well, just right.
Two updates today.
A friend came to stay at my house a few days ago, and she was suspected of being infected. Speaking of which, both of us have been staying at home recently, so she went downstairs and then...
