【New Red Mansion】Perfect World

Episode 17: It's quite a contrast. Customers should like it.

Shui Rong went out in the afternoon to deal with the company's opening, so Pin'er took out the guqin to practice. As Xiangyun said: A sharp sword before a battle will still shine even if it's not sharp.

In previous competitions, she mostly played ancient music. This time it was a performance, and she had to play her own new music, so she had to practice harder.

When the practice was about four o'clock, Xueyan came upstairs again and said in a loud voice: "Miss Lin, Young Master Jia Lan is here."

Lin Pin'er also wanted to stretch her muscles, so she followed Xueyan downstairs.

"Why are you here?" Lin Pin'er was happy. Although she preferred to be alone rather than to be together, she liked to receive people who came to see her.

"Aunt Pin, let me see your big parrot." Look, he is already teasing the parrot...

"So you didn't come to see me!" Lin Pin'er pretended to be angry.

"I came to see you and the parrot. My mother went to work, and I was bored so I thought of coming to see you." Jia Lan quickly corrected what he had just said. What a quick reaction he had!

Xueyan took out nuts from the cabinet next to her and gave them to Jia Lan, asking him to feed the parrot.

"Kara still won't talk?"

"Well, maybe she thinks I'm not important! She thinks it's enough for her to be able to communicate with Lianyu." There was a hint of resentment in Lin Pin'er's words. After she brought the female parrot home, she taught her carefully for a period of time, but the parrot could only call twice and refused to speak at all, and was not very close to her.

After playing for a while, the two of them felt bored. This parrot has a bad temper, just like a cat. If you play with it for too long, it will get impatient.

Lin Pin'er suddenly remembered that she had promised Su Miaoyu to write a program for her: "Why don't I take you to the garden for tea!" Lin Pin'er suggested.

Zijuan just brought a tea tray and snacks to the tea room: "It's so nice to drink tea at home. It's so cold outside. Don't you dislike going out?"

Jia Lan also asked: "Are we going to other aunts' courtyards? I've just visited every one of them."

Lin Pin'er pouted: "So you didn't come to see me on purpose? This is the last stop of your tour, right?"

"Oh, no. I came to see you on purpose, and I just took a look at their place on the way."

Lin Pin'er had already started putting on her coat: "I'll treat you to tea later. Can you help my friend write a program?"

Jia Lan nodded quickly. This was the second time he had said the wrong thing today. He must not provoke Aunt Pin again.

Lin Pin'er said to Zijuan again, "I'll take him to Su Miaoyu's place to play for a while and come back for dinner."

After saying that, he led Jia Lan out.

When they arrived at the teahouse, Jia Baoyu was acting like a waiter, helping Su Miaoyu to arrange and entertain guests.

Jia Baoyu was handsome to begin with, and he also had a nice smile. He helped to seat guests, ordered tea, and inspected the place. He was very considerate and did his job in a very professional manner.

Lin Pin'er smiled and said to Su Miaoyu behind the bar, "I brought you a little engineer. Bring the computer you use in your store and he will write a program for you right now.

Su Miaoyu was happy to hear this, and took out the laptop. Then she took the two of them to sit at the largest long table over there.

Jia Baoyu also came over to greet them with his sharp eyes: "You are here! What would you like to drink?"

"Uncle Bao, what are you doing here..." Jia Lan said with a smile in his eyes.

"I'm doing odd jobs, don't ask so many questions, kid."

Lin Pin'er took the tablet and showed Jia Lan the tea list on it.

"This one looks good." Jia Lan pointed at a new product in the store. From the picture, it was an afternoon tea set with snacks in a solid wooden box.

"Well, this one looks good. We want this one." Lin Pin'er said to Jia Baoyu seriously, and then took out the payment code for him to scan. People who didn't know would think they were playing some kind of house game.

When Jia Baoyu walked away to place his order at the bar, Lin Pin'er quietly asked Su Miaoyu who was sitting next to her, "When did Meng Guang take over Liang Hong's case? When did she take over?"

Su Miaoyu blushed, and then lowered her voice and said mysteriously, "He came to my healing experience last week, saying that he always had nightmares, couldn't sleep well, and always talked in his sleep, and sometimes even shouted and screamed. So he asked me to help him heal. Combining his symptoms, I concluded that he was too energetic and had wild thoughts. So I made a healing prescription for him: that is, do more physical labor during the day and try to run less at night. He will definitely sleep well after three months of treatment. Who would have thought that he would do it as soon as he said it, and now I got a clerk for free. He has been working for three days!"

Lin Pin'er laughed so hard that her stomach hurt, and she leaned on Su Miaoyu's shoulder. Jia Lan had already started writing programs seriously, and she didn't know what was wrong with Aunt Pin...

"Stop laughing, or you'll make people run away." Su Miaoyu warned. Lin Pin'er became serious for a second.

When the solid wooden snack box was brought over, Lin Pin'er was amazed. The box was actually made of glass on all four sides. The bottom layer was covered with marble sugar, decorated with fresh flowers, and finally various desserts were arranged in an orderly manner.

"Jia Lan, which one do you want to eat?" After Jia Baoyu placed the teacups, he opened the glass lid of the solid wood snack box.

"Wow, Aunt Pin, does this look like the glass jar you put your little thing and Xiaonanbei in?"

Lin Pin'er suddenly realized. No wonder she felt familiar with it just now. It turned out that the marble candy imitated the sand, the flowers imitated the landscaping, and the cake imitated her little crabs and hermit crabs.

Su Miaoyu said to Jia Lan, "The inspiration does come from your aunt's landscaping tank. These desserts are all new. You can try them."

Lin Pin'er was stunned. It was amazing that one could find inspiration for making desserts from the crab tank.

Jia Lan pointed to a small square cake and said, "I want this one." Su Miaoyu helped him take it out of the snack box and placed it next to him.

"This is Italian almond chocolate." Jia Baoyu introduced, as if he had to finish the introduction before he would complete his task.

"Uncle Bao, why don't you sit down and have a piece too!" suggested the cute Jia Lan.

"You guys eat, I still have to work." After saying this, Jia Baoyu still stood aside.

Lin Pin'er tried so hard to hold back her laughter that she almost hurt herself. Jia Baoyu's serious look was really funny.

"Then I want the round one!" Lin Pin'er waited for Jia Baoyu to introduce it.

"This is Earl Grey tea cake." After saying that, he gently placed the cake plate next to Lin Pin'er.

Su Miaoyu saw Jia Baoyu's expectant eyes and said quickly, "I don't want to eat, you go and do your work." Only then did Jia Baoyu go and do his work somewhere else.

"But he's quite a contrast, customers should like him."

"Who says it isn't?"

The two little girls couldn't help but start to tease him openly.

Wang Xifeng was free today, and Mrs. Xue happened to come to visit Mrs. Wang. Seeing that Grandmother Jia was happy, she asked the two ladies to play mahjong with Grandmother Jia.

Xu Ping came in and wanted to say something. She hid in the corner and winked at Wang Xifeng. When they were not paying attention, Wang Xifeng made a phone call gesture to Xu Ping, then pointed at Mrs. Wang and continued to play cards as if nothing had happened.

Xu Ping understood and quickly left. When he reached the courtyard, he called Mrs. Wang and said, "Madam, it's not good. Mr. Li and Miss Tanchun asked the person Mr. Wang sent to resign. I can't persuade him now. What should I do?"

Mrs. Wang's cold voice came out: "Why don't you call your General Wang? I can still help you with personnel matters." As she spoke, she raised her head and looked at Wang Xifeng.

Wang Xifeng quickly pretended to be clueless: "What's wrong? What happened?"

Mrs. Wang hung up the phone unhappily: "Let's talk about it later." Then she continued to play cards with Lady Jia.

Seeing that they were all preoccupied with their own thoughts, Jia's mother stopped playing cards and let them go after two more rounds.

Mrs. Wang called Wang Xifeng into the room with a gloomy face:

"Why do you bother me with every little thing now? You even come to me to fire a few people."

Wang Xifeng quickly checked her phone: "Oh, I was in a meeting and muted my phone. Xu Ping called me several times but I didn't answer. I asked her what was going on."

After asking, she replied to Mrs. Wang: "The eldest sister-in-law and the maid found that the prices of the two people's purchases were too high, so they asked them to leave."

Mrs. Wang saw that she was speaking vaguely and guessed that there was something wrong. "Who is it?"

Wang Xifeng quickly replied, "It is precisely because of this person's importance that Xu Ping called you. They are both talents we have trained. One is a master at making tea, and the other is a master at making incense seals."
