Free heart

If Mao Yuan knew that every time Shen Xiaoxiao met her, she would spend more than an hour in the car and pay 100 to 150 yuan for a taxi, then she would probably guess where Xiaoxiao lived.Of course, taking the subway from Shen Xiaoxiao's parents' house to the city center will not cost so much money, but it will take twice as long.

From the size of the house, the nature of renting or private ownership, the location and the surrounding living environment, it is easy to understand a person's family situation.At least, this view is very effective in some cities in the country or in the United States.

Even if Shen Xiaoxiao has more than ten years of overseas growth and life experience, it will be more difficult to judge the real purpose of others approaching her because of the resources and money in her hands.Whether it is friendship or love, she will accept greater challenges.

Coincidentally, the concept of "personal privacy" in western countries includes the item of home address.Therefore, under the unlimited protection of "personal privacy", she can easily establish a special relationship with Mao Yuan.In this kind of emotion, talent is the most critical element, and others are not so important.

I saw Shen Xiaoxiao wearing a light brown Panama hat with black stripes, which added a bit of hippie and neutral taste, with a slightly upturned brim, and her hair was casually draped over her shoulders.Putting on a pair of trendy shades, a black tank top, baby blue speckled jeans, flat strappy flip-flops, and walking out of the room with a huge canvas handbag.

Gu Zhenye and Qin Yuemei, carrying a box of high-grade West Lake Longjing tea, entered the living room on the first floor under the enthusiastic guidance of the hostess Song Mingjuan.When Qin Yuemei, who was sitting on the sofa, looked around, she caught sight of Shen Xiaoxiao who appeared in the corridor on the second floor.

Compared with Song Mingjuan, no matter where she is, Qin Yuemei always uses her accustomed and proficient Shanghainese to deal with others.In her words, "Shanghai people don't speak Shanghai dialect, so how can they do it? If you always speak Mandarin, you will forget your roots!"

Seeing Xiaoxiao go down the stairs, he whispered to Song Mingjuan, "Mingjuan, who is that little foreign girl who came down from your upstairs? Why do I look so familiar?"

Song Mingjuan also spoke Shanghai dialect with a smile, "Oh, you don't know our daughter anymore? I showed you the photos!"

"Is this your daughter? She is dressed like a foreign female star! Mingjuan, but what I don't understand is why there are so many colorful things on her arms..."

"Tattoos! The little girl has been in the United States for a long time, and she has learned to like to get this like those Americans."

The two mother-level characters were chatting like a family, and Shen Xiaoxiao walked quickly to the center of the living room.First he smiled and nodded at Gu Gu Ye and his wife, then looked at his mother and said, "Mum, I'm going out for a while."

Song Mingjuan quickly changed her words and called her in Mandarin, "Xiao Xiao, wait a moment, let me introduce Uncle Gu and Aunt Qin."

Qin Yuemei stared at her, and asked her husband in a low voice, "Why is Mingjuan also speaking Mandarin now?"

Gu Gu Ye shook his head, and looked at Shen Xiaoxiao twice as if he were looking at a rare and endangered species.Picking up a cup of "Laojunmei" or Junshan Silver Needle tea from the nanny of the Shen family, she said while admiring the tea buds standing in the water like silver needles, "The little girl of the Shen family has stayed in the United States for too long. Can understand Shanghai dialect."

Xiao Xiao just smiled at her mother, and walked back to Gu Zhenye and his wife again.Qin Yuemei nudged her husband lightly with her elbow, signaling that he should respond politely.Afterwards, she stood up with a smile on her face and said in Shanghai dialect, "Oh, my daughter is really old and beautiful now! I am your Aunt Qin, you must remember it?"

After that, the polite greetings did not meet Song Mingjuan's expectations.She heard her daughter speak Spanish again, "Ma'am, it's a pleasure to meet you! Even though I don't understand what you're saying, you certainly won't understand what I'm saying."

When Gu Guye, who was standing aside, heard this conversation, there was only a cloudy feeling in his mind.If the little daughter of the Shen family spoke English, he felt that he could still speak a few words with the other party.But now...he has an urge to find the company's professional translators.

Qin Yuemei was even more dumbfounded, not knowing how to respond.Seeing her expression, Shen Xiaoxiao understood a little bit, and changed her words to Mandarin, "Madam, I believe you can speak Mandarin, right?"

Half a minute later, Shen Xiaoxiao walked out of the gate of Shen's house and walked straight to a reserved taxi parked at the door of her villa.The advantage of booking a taxi by phone is that there is no need to wait for a taxi on the road outside the villa area.After traveling for more than 50 minutes and spending 140 yuan, she took a taxi to a place she had never been to.

The two met again in front of the steps of Qipu Xingwang Clothing Market.Shen Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up when she saw Mao Yuan, she walked up to her and warmly hugged her as a kiss-to-cheek salute.

Mao Yuan, who was still wearing yesterday's outfit but only changed into a T-shirt, blushed and looked at the other party carefully, "Hey, I almost didn't recognize you just now. This outfit looks pretty good!"

Xiao Xiao smiled and said, "Thank you. Mao Yuan, didn't you go home yesterday?"

Mao Yuan didn't understand what she meant, and asked while pulling her towards the clothing market building, "What do you mean? You were the one who dropped me off at the door last night, have you forgotten?"

"No. Just, don't you need a change of clothes?"

"Change? I only changed into a T-shirt, so I have to wear the pants for two or three days."

"Oh, it is."

"Why are you asking me that?"

"Because in the United States, if you still wear yesterday's clothes the next day, it means you didn't go home yesterday." Xiao Xiao said.

"Hehehe... Now you have returned to China, little lady Shen." Mao Yuan smiled tenderly.

Mao Yuan carefully looked at the canvas handbag that the other party was carrying, and whispered, "Hey, be careful with your bag. This is a clothing market. There are many people shopping, but there are also many thieves."

Xiao Xiao nodded, "I will be careful. But why did you choose to come here?"

"This place is a market that sells fashion clothes and shoes, and there are more retail or foreign trade stocks here. So, under normal circumstances, I will come here with my friends to shop."

"I understand."

Two people have been shopping from 2:4 pm to [-] o'clock.Only then did Mao Yuan look a little tired, and said, "Xiao Xiao, let's find a place to rest."

Xiao Xiaozheng had this in mind, "Okay, then do you know if there are any drink shops nearby?"
