“This house of yours is too cold, arrange for two or three people to come and live to guard the house and be somewhat popular.” Mrs. Shang complained that her daughter’s house was too cold as she walked.
Merchant’s housekeeper was arranging someone to come over every two days to clean the house, but no one was living in this small villa.
Shang Xiaofei liked to be left alone, unsupervised and free.
“I think this is quite good.”
Shang Xiaofei didn’t want to change the status quo.
Mrs. Shang looked at her daughter and didn’t continue to dwell with her on this topic.
“Mom is going to attend a charity gala in the evening, you accompany mom.”
“Mom, you know I’ve always disliked attending parties, you can ask Tong Tong to accompany you, or call Sister Hai Ling.”
Mrs. Shang couldn’t help but poke her head again, “You’re a businessman now, and businessmen are all about socializing, how can you talk business if you don’t socialize with people? In Guancheng, you are able to talk about business, that’s the face others give you for your big brother’s face, for the status of a merchant.”
“Good thing, your vegetable farm grows very good vegetables, not to be criticized, leaving Guancheng, in other cities, who knows what kind of onion you Shang Xiaofei is?”
“Mom brought you to the banquet also to pave the way for you, Tong Tong doesn’t like this kind of occasion either, but she is responsible, motivated, willing to learn and integrate into this circle, she now has ninety percent self-confidence compared to before.”
“Moreover, War Yin is also going to attend the charity gala, Tong Tong is naturally accompanying War Yin, how can she accompany mom anymore? You are the daughter of mom.”
Mrs. Shang sometimes really can’t do anything about her daughter, her daughter this way is also their family spoiled out.
“Where is sister Hai Ling, mom can bring sister Hai Ling.”
“Don’t you know what kind of temperament Hai Ling has? Even Tong Tong can’t call her, let alone mom, Hai Ling still has to take care of Yang Yang at night.”
Shang Xiaofei pursed her lips and reluctantly compromised, “Alright, I’ll accompany mom to attend just how much money and things will our Shang Clan Group donate?”
“You’ll know at night.”
The several big families in Guancheng, whether they were sincere or for the sake of fame, would attend some important charity events and donate money and things.
It was the first time that Hai Tong accompanied Zhan Yin to attend such an event, and the couple represented the entire Zhan clan.
It was impossible for Mrs. Shang to snatch her niece to accompany her.
“Mom, will Mr. Tang attend?”
Shang Xiaofei suddenly asked.
She was afraid that her mother would arrange for her to spend time with Tang Yongan again.
“How would I know, I’m not the worm in Mr. Tang’s belly.”
Shang Xiaofei playfully spat out her tongue and stopped talking.
Mothers and daughters don’t have overnight grudges, and with Mrs. Shang personally coming to look for her daughter, Shang Xiaofei’s bit of aggression from being kicked out of the car by her mother disappeared.
Because she had to accompany War Yin to the charity gala in the evening, Hai Tong wanted to close the door of the bookstore in the afternoon and send Yang Yang back to her sister’s place, when Shen Xiaojun came to the store.
See Hai Tong ready to close the door, Shen Xiaojun said: “Tong Tong, I look at the store, you do what you want to do, I lie at home to die of boredom, it is difficult to grind Su Nan to let me out to walk around.”
Shen Xiaojun said as she entered the store, put her bag on the cash register and said, “I’ll watch the door, I’d rather sit in the store reading novels and swatting flies than lying at home as a pig, eating and sleeping, waking up to eat, really treating me like a pig.”
