Zhang Ling gets closer to women like a marionette.
The familiar smell exuded by women became stronger and stronger.
See the woman's face thoroughly.
Zhang Ling couldn't help but feel as if she had seen it somewhere before.
Search all the memories in your mind.
She was very sure that this must be a familiar stranger.
But why does my intuition say that they know each other?
And it's an extraordinary relationship.
The strong sense of familiarity aroused her infinite curiosity.
Zhang Ling forced herself to ask:
"Hello! Madam, please allow me to take the liberty of asking. Have we met before? Madam Guan's face always gives people a strong sense of familiarity."
The woman took back the hand she had just raised to touch Zhang Ling's cheek.
Then, he wiped his sore eyelids and said with a smile:
"Well, we did meet."
Zhang Ling asked quickly with some excitement:
"Where? Where have we met?"
The woman continued to smile and said:
"About a month or two ago. I asked you for directions. At that time, you were wearing a blue business suit. You were very energetic and beautiful!"
When women say this.
It's obvious that I feel like I'm showing off my children to outsiders.
Zhang Ling thought for a while.
I vaguely remembered that this was indeed the case.
So he suddenly nodded and admitted with a bit of embarrassment.
Although I also felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity at the time.
But it was just because she felt that the woman was just an ordinary stranger.
That’s why I didn’t remember women’s facial features.
However, it was a common thing for Zhang Ling to ask for directions, which made Zhang Ling somewhat confused.
Why do women remember so clearly?
I even remember what kind of clothing she was wearing at that time.
That’s right!
She does have that kind of business attire.
I usually wear it only during work.
So it is possible that we met at work.
Why do you say that?
Because Zhang Ling will devote all her energy to her work when she is at work.
That’s why I didn’t have much impression of what Madam said about asking for directions.
But, not bad!
This lady looks very generous.
She wasn't unhappy because Zhang Ling didn't remember her.
And he grabbed Zhang Ling's hand very enthusiastically.
It's like pulling a favorite junior to invite him to come in and sit down.
It is said that it is too cold and humid outside at this time.
You will easily catch a cold if you stay there for too long.
To be honest, Zhang Ling didn't feel anything at all.
The old lady just finished speaking.
It seemed like a gust of wind was blowing from the direction of the lake.
It really made Zhang Ling suddenly have a cold war.
What a coincidence!
The old lady's grip on her hand was like a hand warmer.
A warm current spread along his hands.
He quickly drove away the chill he felt just now.
Perhaps it was because Zhang Ling's body really felt cold.
She actually ignored the familiar feeling of intimacy when the old lady held her hand.
Zhang Ling followed the old lady into the wooden house.
period!
She was a little reserved as she briefly introduced herself as if meeting a superior.
But as soon as he opened his mouth to introduce a few words, the old lady stopped him with words.
The old lady smiled and said:
"Don't be nervous! This is not a group. I'm very happy that you can come. I also ask Zhang Ling to treat this place as your own home and feel free to do so."
Let her think of this as her home!
Zhang Ling looked around at the luxuriously decorated wooden houses with a bit of a wry smile.
There are walls with simulated synthetic stone textures, solid wood floors that make no abnormal sound when you step on them, and furnishings that look like antiques...
To be honest, she didn't dare to think of this place as her home.
Because her father educated her.
Never imagine getting something that does not belong to you easily.
That is the easiest way for kindness to be completely swallowed up by greed.
My father also said that when a person's kindness is completely swallowed up by greed.
Then a person without kindness becomes a walking zombie.
You must know that the walking dead will never experience the taste of true love in the world.
Zhang Ling always keeps these words in mind.
Never forgotten.
So she smiled and waved her hands quickly and said:
"Old madam, I can do whatever I want here. But there is no way I will treat this place as my home."
The old lady said:
"You don't like me?"
Zhang Ling actually saw endless disappointment on the old lady's face.
She carefully recalled which sentence she said wrong?
It's just that the old lady didn't give her too much time to think.
He took the initiative to let go of her hand, and walked towards the fireplace with some confusion.
Looking at the lonely back of the old lady.
She couldn't help but feel sadness welling up in her heart.
At this time, Wu Man leaned into her ear and reminded:
"Oops! We were originally here to stay, but the owner of this place was offended by his words as soon as we arrived. This is inappropriate no matter how you think about it."
Zhang Ling replied almost subconsciously:
"There is indeed something wrong. But I don't know what I said wrong!"
Because she firmly believed that her father's advice was correct.
Father is a godly presence in Zhang Ling's life.
Without his father's careful care and nurturing.
It's impossible for her to grow this big.
Wu Man patted Zhang Ling's shoulder twice and said:
"Sister, you seem to be such a shrewd person. Why did you make a fool of yourself at the critical moment?"
"Huh?" Zhang Ling looked at Wu Man doubtfully.
Wuman went on to explain:
"We are only staying here for a few days. The first priority is to please the owner. You just need to follow the old lady's wishes and say that you are willing to treat this place as your home in the next few days. Then everyone will be happy."
Wu Man said that it was her mission.
Appeared as Zhang Ling's friend.
Then, when necessary, encourage Zhang Ling and the old lady to have a good environment to get along.
"But……"
Zhang Ling wanted to say that she did everything according to her father's teachings.
My father's teachings are correct.
So she actually didn't feel that she had said anything wrong.
For a matter of principle.
Zhang Ling really didn't intend to go against her nature and admit that she was wrong.
Wu Man did not give her a chance to explain and said:
"No but! In order for us not to sleep in the wilderness tonight, I suggest you go and stay with the old lady."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Mention the words "sleeping in the wilderness".
Zhang Ling's body couldn't help but shudder.
Because she remembered the cold feeling when she first entered.
To be honest, she really didn't want to sleep in the wilderness.
What's more, she was not prepared to sleep in the wilderness.
He would really be driven out of the cabin ruthlessly.
Then she will definitely have a hard time tonight.
what to do?
Weigh again and again!
Zhang Ling finally chose to follow Wu Man's advice.
She tried her best to convince herself that this decision was not against her heart.
I just told a white lie to take care of the old lady's mood.
So she took the initiative and came to the old lady who was standing by the fireplace and said:
"Old madam, after thinking about it for a while, I think you are right."
The words were spoken.
But there was a dull pain in her heart.
Fortunately, the pain is still within a tolerable range.
The old lady’s expectant eyes were mixed with a trace of doubt and she said:
"What?"
expect!
It's because the old lady always feels that she owes Zhang Ling too much.
I hope Zhang Ling will ask for something from her.
That way she would have a chance to make up for Zhang Ling.
Zhang Ling said with a hint of apology:
"Sorry! What I just said may have misunderstood you."
"Misunderstanding?" The old lady's expectation became even stronger.
Zhang Ling went on to explain:
"This is what I meant completely."
"Um?"
"Since you are willing to provide us with a homely accommodation, Zhang Ling is naturally willing to maintain this place as her own home with a grateful heart."
Zhang Ling changed her words.
It is similar to maintaining schools and businesses as one’s own home.
It can be regarded as a kind of flattery to the leader.
Because saying this will not hurt Zhang Ling’s heart too much.
Obviously, the old lady is still very willing to listen to Zhang Ling's words.
So the feeling of disappointment was instantly replaced by excitement and joy.
The old lady quickly grabbed Zhang Ling's hand with both hands, carefully covered it in her palm and said eagerly:
"Zhang Ling, in order to come to my place, you must have eaten nothing on the way today, right?"
Then the old lady looked around with excitement and called "Mother Ning" to quickly prepare dinner.
She also happily expressed that she would eat half a bowl of rice more than usual tonight.
The old lady's expression couldn't help but make Zhang Ling laugh.
She was laughing at how the old lady's mind felt so like that of a child?
Maybe he saw the old lady's cheerful smile.
So the pain in Zhang Ling's heart completely disappeared.
The old lady heard Zhang Ling's laughter.
Just glanced at Zhang Ling.
Zhang Ling wants to explain why she laughs?
But the old lady immediately laughed heartily with Zhang Ling.
After laughing, she even expressed that she had never been so happy as she was today.
Ning's mother heard the old lady's expression while serving the food.
He did not forget to explain to Zhang Ling with a smile:
"The reason why the old lady is so happy tonight is because Miss Ling is here at home."
Listen to Ning's mother's explanation.
Especially the title "Miss Ling" sounds so kind and natural.
Zhang Ling suddenly had the illusion that she was originally the young lady of this family.
She didn't have time to shirk it yet.
Ask Ning's mother not to call her that.
Because under her father's education, she never thought of herself as a young lady or princess.
She is just a very ordinary girl from an ordinary family.
It's just that the old lady didn't give Zhang Ling the chance to defend herself.
Very naturally, she gave Zhang Ling her favorite dishes.
Such as: braised pork, meatballs, sweet and sour fish, etc.
Zhang Ling hasn't moved her chopsticks to eat yet.
The small bowls in front of her were already piled high.
What made Zhang Ling feel even more special was the presence of several people at the dinner table, including Ning's mother.
The old lady only gave me a bowl of vegetables.
Zhang Ling also noticed a detail issue.
Everyone else sitting at the dinner table acted a little reserved.
Especially Wu Man.
From the moment they met, he regarded himself as Zhang Ling’s friend.
According to the relationship during this period.
Wu Man should have said some sour words of envy at this time.
But everyone else, including Wu Man, only cast envious glances.
It felt to Zhang Ling like she was the old lady's daughter.
If the old lady doesn't love her, who will she love?
So it's normal for her to enjoy different kinds of care from the old lady.
unusual!
Only Zhang Ling herself felt that this was extremely abnormal.
To say that it was to repay her kindness for helping the old lady point out the way.
The reward for this kindness is really too heavy.
Zhang Ling obviously felt flattered.
Maybe it’s because the food on the plane is so unpalatable.
She didn't eat much at the time.
So at this moment, she was already so hungry that her chest was touching her back.
I didn't worry too much for the time being and started enjoying the small bowl of delicious food in front of me.
I took the first bite of a piece of braised pork.
Why does this taste have a strong daddy taste?
Coincidence?
She took another bite of the fish.
It still has the familiar taste that daddy made.
…
She tasted several more dishes in succession.
Each dish is cooked differently.
But the taste is very similar to what my father made.
Could it be that my father also came here?
She put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hands, stood up and looked around.
Mother Ning asked with a hint of doubt:
"Ms. Ling, please tell me what you need. I will help you find it right now."
The old lady on the side tugged on her sleeve and said with a smile:
"My child, you are not familiar with this place yet. If you need anything, just tell me and ask Mother Ning to help you find it."
"No, it's not." After Zhang Ling answered the old lady, she immediately looked at Ning's mother and said, "Ning's mother, I would like to ask if everyone in the wooden house is at the dinner table?"
"Yes!"
"Then...then who cooked tonight's dinner?"
"Yes..." Ning's mother was about to say that the old lady made it, but when she saw the old lady's eyes, she immediately changed her mind and said, "Of course I did it. Ling, Miss Ling, these meals are not to your liking."
?"
Is it really her illusion?
Father shouldn't be here.
Maybe it really is a coincidence.
Ning's mother happens to have the same cooking techniques as her father.
That's why I cooked meals that tasted very similar.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhang Ling finally put on a somewhat embarrassed smile and said:
"No, no. It's very to my liking. I just didn't expect to taste the taste of home here. That's why I feel a little weird."
The old lady smiled happily when she heard the "smell of home".
This is the effect she wants.
Make a meal that makes Zhang Ling feel like home.
Now she really did it.
How can this make people unhappy?
The old lady urged with excitement:
"Lingling likes to eat. If you like it, eat more."
While she was talking, the old lady took advantage of the situation and put Zhang Ling's favorite braised pork and the plate in front of her.
This is without regard for the feelings of others at the dinner table.
I just want to give Zhang Ling all the love I can unconditionally.
This made Zhang Ling herself feel very embarrassed.
She said with a wry smile:
"Old madam, this is not good. Although braised pork is my favorite, but you just gave it to me like this, what will Mother Ning and the others do?"
The old lady blurted out without even looking at them:
"It's okay, they don't like to eat it. Just feel free to eat it."
Zhang Ling didn't have time to react.
Everyone else at the dinner table immediately agreed with the old lady's words.
In addition to Ning's mother, there were also Wu Man, Xiao Qin, and the driver who brought them together.
You can accurately determine each other's food preferences when you first meet.
The old lady is definitely a god!
Although Zhang Ling was confused in her heart.
But she didn't want to clear up this confusion now.
Because she really likes this feeling of being loved.
It is very similar to the maternal love expressed in various movies, TV dramas and literary works.
This hard-won feeling of maternal love.
She really didn't want to lose it easily.
Then let her enjoy it for a few more days.
It also fulfilled her dream of having a mother.
So at this moment, she was more willing to treat the old lady as her mother for the time being.
A bang!
Someone broke in violently.
Almost everyone looked towards the door.
Want to see who's coming?
But only the old lady seemed to already know who the visitor was.
So she kept looking indifferent and asked Zhang Ling to continue eating.
