Chapter 85: Lanyin Teahouse
The fat man chatted with the person on the other end of the phone for a long time and finally hung up.
Then the fat man frowned and looked worried. He shook his head and walked around my hospital bed.
At this moment, my head was hurting. I couldn’t bear it anymore, so I quickly asked him:
"Fat man, why are you always hanging around? If you have anything to say, can you tell me?"
The fat man glanced at me, turned around again, and then stopped. He came closer to me and asked:
"Do you still remember that you have an aunt whom you are not even close to?"
When he said this, I was stunned. I didn't understand what he meant for a while, but after thinking about it carefully, I really had one.
But it's not as outrageous as what the fat man said. Even though I'm a close relative of my aunt, I didn't even meet her a few times when I was a child.
I remember that when I was very young, my aunt insisted on going abroad for some unknown reason, and my father lost all his money from hunting.
Because of this incident, my mother almost broke off the sisterhood with my aunt, and even had a big fight with my father.
Perhaps from that time on, my mother had the idea of abandoning me.
I don't have a good impression of my aunt, but it's not a bad impression. After all, I haven't met her very often.
I just often heard my father and mother say that my aunt was a "white-eyed wolf". They always said she was a "white-eyed wolf".
So my memory of her since I was a child has always been "White-Eyed Wolf". I don't even remember her name.
She has always been named "White-Eyed Wolf", and at most we only know her surname is Meng.
I thought about it carefully and found that this was the only aunt I was not close to, so I asked the fat man:
"Is the one you're talking about named Meng?"
The fat man closed his eyes, turned his mouth downwards, and nodded vigorously, indicating that it was her!
I instantly fell into endless contemplation, thinking that since my parents are gone, it stands to reason that I have nothing to do with her, so why did she suddenly look for me?
Besides, didn’t she go abroad? Did she come back? She came to see me as soon as she came back? Either there is a bit of misunderstanding, or there is something fishy!
I'm afraid this sudden visit is not a good one, and I don't know what kind of medicine she is selling in the gourd!
Thinking of this, I asked the fat man again:
"What did you and my aunt say on the phone just now? We talked for so long."
The fat man didn't hide it, he told it in detail, and he summarized it into three things.
One, my aunt came back from the United States.
Second, my aunt opened a teahouse.
Third, my aunt invited us to have tea in her teahouse!
I thought about it carefully and soon discovered something was wrong. The fat man said that my aunt had just returned to China.
Since she just returned to China, how could there be a phone call from Fatty? Even if there is, I am her niece, shouldn’t she have mine?
Also, my aunt opened a teahouse as soon as she returned to China. Is this intentional or was it planned in advance?
In addition, we haven't contacted each other for at least fifteen or six years. If it hadn't been for this phone call, I really wouldn't have remembered that I still had this aunt.
He opened a teahouse as soon as he came back, and invited us to drink tea after opening the teahouse. All kinds of clues were connected together. No matter how I thought about it, it was like setting up a Hongmen banquet, just waiting for us to take the bait.
But what was her purpose? Just to treat me, my half-close niece, to tea? She told the dog, and the dog shook his head in disbelief.
Just as I was thinking about it, at this moment, Fatty's phone rang again. Fatty hurriedly picked it up. Judging by his actions, it was probably my aunt who was calling.
This time I hung up the phone after not talking for a few words. I was a little confused immediately. Logically speaking, I was her niece.
Even if he called Fatty, he should have had a few words with me, but I never heard my name at all.
I even wonder if this aunt went abroad and mistakenly remembered her niece as her nephew!
I was about to ask the fat man, but before I could say anything, the fat man spoke first:
"I said that aunt of yours, is she mentally ill? I'm not her niece. She keeps calling me, making me feel like I'm your agent!"
The fat man was so angry that he twisted his mouth and squinted his eyes. When he saw this, I quickly "pacified" him:
"Okay, fat man, the agent won't lose either!"
After hearing this, the fat man became even more angry. He stretched out his hand and was about to hit him, but he quickly took it back and muttered in a low voice:
"Since you are a patient, I will let you go!"
I couldn't help but snicker, and then asked hurriedly:
"What did my aunt say to you just now?"
The fat man rolled his eyes and said slowly:
"Your aunt just said that she would go to a place called... called... "Lanyin Teahouse". She said she would wait for you there."
I kept repeating the name of this teahouse in my mind. I have been to many teahouses here.
But this is the first time I have heard of a teahouse with this name, not to mention I have been there before.
Then the fat man said again:
"Your aunt also specifically asked us to dress more formally."
I immediately became happy after hearing this, and thought to myself, I just want to drink tea and dress formally. What? Is this tea made of gold? Or are these tea leaves made of gold?
I secretly guessed in my heart and thought it was interesting. After hearing what the fat man said, I really wanted to meet this aunt I had never met before.
Then he said to the fat man:
"Come on, fat man, go meet this aunt who seems to be a relative but not a relative!"
"Okay! I'll drive!" With that, the fat man walked out of the ward!
Just when I was about to get up, I felt a pain in my head. Fortunately, I held on to the bed in time.
Zhang Tianyi saw me coming over in a hurry and helped me. I waved my hand to him and told him to help me go through the discharge procedures quickly. I can do it myself.
Afterwards, Zhang Tianyi went to complete the discharge procedures, and I moved for a while and felt that my body had almost recovered.
He quickly walked to the gate of the hospital. Fatty and Zhang Tianyi had been waiting in the car for a long time.
Seeing me coming out, he hurriedly greeted me and motioned for me to get in the car. I nodded and quickly got in the car.
The fat man drove the Land Rover, stepped on the accelerator and drove to the door of the best clothing store in the whole city.
As soon as he entered the door, the fat man said to the waiter in the store:
"Pick out two suits and a cheongsam, both of good quality!"
The fat man flipped his mouth and said it, and in the end it was me who spent the money!
After some selection, I finally picked a pretty good cheongsam. As soon as I put it on, I felt very uncomfortable and awkward.
I am used to wearing trousers, so when I suddenly put on a cheongsam, I really couldn’t get used to it!
The fat man looked at me and couldn't help but smacked his lips and said with a smile:
"Don't tell me, this Arlene is really pretty when she puts on a cheongsam!"
I was too lazy to tell him the difference, so I quickly paid the bill and got in the car again.
We followed the navigation all the way, turning left and right, and finally reached our final destination.
Chapter completed!
