The next day, morning.
At the dining table, Gray sat in the upper seat, holding a neighborhood newspaper that was mailed this morning. It contained news from various places in the neighborhood, as well as recruitment information for some factories. Jula was busy with breakfast in the kitchen, bringing the prepared portions to the table, and everything was as usual.
Du Di'an's biological clock rang on time. After getting up, he folded the quilt and washed his face with filtered well water. He came to the restaurant and said "good morning" to Jula and his wife, and then sat on tiptoe in his chair, holding the I ate the breakfast rolls I prepared.
At this time, Jula was also busy, and took her share to sit down opposite Du Di'an, and said with a smile: "How is it, does it taste good today?"
"It's a little spicy." Du Di'an took a bite, "I like spicy food."
"That's good." Jula smiled.
Gray put down the newspaper at this time, glanced at Du Dian who was lying on the table and bowed his head to eat and said, "Dian, my aunt and I have chosen marriage for you, you prepare today, dress up, and come with us later. Meet people in the past."
Due to Du Di'an's request, both Gray and Jula temporarily called themselves "aunt and uncle".
Du Dixin came, and after last night's buffer, now he has calmed down, and pretended to look up and asked: "Marriage? What is a marriage?"
Jula glanced at him and whispered to Gray: "Look, I'll say Dean is still young, and it's not too late for a couple of years to get married."
"At the age of thirteen, it is the legal age for marriage." Gray looked at her, his eyes seemed to be slightly cold, and said, "We are just going to get engaged, there is nothing wrong with a few years in advance."
Seeing that her husband had made up her mind, Jula sighed and said nothing more.
Gray said to Du Di'an: "We will take you to see a beautiful big sister later, you have to seize the opportunity, do your best to get her approval, in this way, you will be able to eat a lot of delicious food every day in the future. , wear nice clothes and never go hungry again, you know?"
Du Dian said in surprise: "Really? I will definitely!"
Only then did a smile appear on Gray's face, and he said, "Good boy, Dean is a good boy, come and eat first."
Soon, the three-person meal was over.
Du Dian's eagerness to try, and such a positive appearance, made Gray relieved, and the rest just depends on whether the young lady can take a fancy to Dean.
"Come on, don't worry, put on new clothes first." Jula took out a new little black suit, bright red tie, and shiny shoes from the closet and asked Du Di'an to put them on. When he came out neatly dressed, Jula and Gray couldn't help but their eyes lit up. This little noble gentleman's costume was vividly reflected in Du Di'an. The pale skin was as white as snow, and the black eyes were like stars. generally.
"It's so beautiful!" Jula exclaimed sincerely.
Gray was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Very good, let's go!"
"Well!" Du Di'an was also very excited.
Jula was the last to go out, locked it with her backhand, came to the street in front of the lawn fence, and said to Gray who was holding Du Dian: "So early, there is no carriage coming here, right?"
Gray smiled slightly and said, "I've already said hello, and the Ivy family said they would send someone to pick us up." Having said that, the sound of horses' hoofs sounded in vain, and Du Di'an immediately saw a car from the corner of the street. A gorgeous carriage with wheels inlaid with gold wire galloped over, with a silver-white flag on the roof and a white flower engraved on it.
The coachman, wearing a black high-toed hat and a black suit, parked the carriage in front of Du Di'an and the others, jumped off the carriage, his waist was straight and smiled: "The two are Gray and Jula, Miss is already waiting for you. , please get on the carriage." He covered his chest sideways and made an inviting gesture, showing noble etiquette in his manner.
Gray's heart jumped when he heard it, and he was a little flattered and said: "How can you bother Miss to wait for us, it's really rude, get in the car, get in the car!" As he said, he quickly carried Du Di'an into the carriage.
At this time, the coachman seemed to have noticed Du Di'an as well, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, but then he resumed his polite smile.
Da da da……
After a few people were seated, the coachman shook off the rope and the carriage galloped away.
Du Di'an tilted his head and silently looked at the buildings that flew by outside the car, the pedestrians who were avoiding the road, and the surprised and awe-inspiring eyes cast on the carriage. At this time, neither Gray nor Jula spoke, nor did they tell Du Dian anything, worried that they would fall into the ears of the coachman.
Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings.
The carriage was galloping smoothly and soon passed under the huge wall on the south side. The young guards at the city gate saw the white flower flags on the top of the carriage, and they all moved away. They stretched out their hands to cover their chests and saluted. , and continued to resume his work, and continued to check the identity of passers-by who wanted to enter the business district.
Is this the business district?
Du Di'an looked at the clean streets outside the carriage and the neatly dressed pedestrians on the road, and immediately felt the difference from the residential area. As for the slum area, it was the difference between heaven and hell, which was not exaggerated at all.
Soon, the carriage was parked in front of a delicate and elegant building at the end of the street. Du Di'an saw a cardboard piano sign hanging on the building. The painting was extremely realistic. He couldn't help but be surprised. A piano remains.
The carriage stopped at the main entrance. At this moment, a young man in a black suit walked quickly at the door, looked at Gray and Jula who got off the carriage, and said with a smile, "Miss, please come with me." Lead the way.
Gray looked at this gorgeous and exquisite building that was absolutely impossible to see in the residential area. He was a little nervous in his heart, his back was a little bit straight, and he took Du Di'an's hand and walked in front.
Entering the hall, the bright light of the oil lamp like an agate gem shone on the faces of the Grays. Jula's performance was a little better. She had been invited to the business district several times for medical treatment, and she was a little calm. It was the first time that Gray came to such a place. Du Dian held his hand through him and felt the man's whole body trembling slightly, and he couldn't help shaking his head in his heart.
The sound of gurgling music drifted like flowing water. Du Di'an looked at the place and saw that the hall was very spacious. There were many people sitting here eating snacks, listening to music, and chatting softly. The fine thread and cotton cloth used in residential areas are even better, some are silk, some are fleece sweaters, the colors are extremely bright, and the contrast with the common primary color of thin thread clothes in residential areas is very clear.
The young man in the black suit made a slight gesture and walked towards a separate seat inside.
Du Di'an looked and saw two figures sitting here, one was a middle-aged beautiful woman, about 30 years old, wearing a delicately tailored skirt, with a beautiful face and a very gentle look. Next to her sat an eleven or twelve-year-old girl with a fair complexion, brown hair, and a melon-seeded face. Although she had not yet matured, she was definitely a beautiful embryo.
The little girl also noticed the Gray family who was approaching, her eyes swept past the two adults, and fell on Du Di'an, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
At this time, the middle-aged beautiful woman stood up and smiled at Zhu La: "Doctor Zhu, my husband's illness was thanks to you last time. Today, he has business to deal with, so I can't come here. I hope you forgive me."
Grayling said: "Where Mr. Ai is busy with business, we are abrupt."
The middle-aged beautiful woman smiled and said, "Sit down first."
"Yes, yes." Gray immediately pulled out the chair and sat down, perhaps because he was too nervous, the foot of the chair slammed on the ground, and a few people who were talking softly in other nearby seats immediately glanced sideways, waiting to see When the middle-aged beautiful woman wore a white medal on the gauze cap, her expression changed and she looked away.
After Gray and Jula sat down, the middle-aged beautiful woman's eyes fell on Du Dian, who was sitting on tiptoe in the chair, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, then she was relieved and smiled at Gray: "This is what you adopted. Baby, it's so clean."
When Gray heard her praise for Du Dian, he was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "Where, unlike your young lady, she is so beautiful at such a young age, and she is very smart at first glance and has inherited your beauty."
The middle-aged beautiful woman smiled slightly and suddenly said, "About the marriage..."
Gray's body tightened, and Jula's expression became a little nervous.
"If Aniya has no opinion, then it's settled." The middle-aged beautiful woman was unexpectedly cheerful.
Gray and Jula glanced at each other, both seeing each other's surprise.
"Lord Mother." At this moment, the little girl suddenly said, "I want to go out with him."
The beautiful middle-aged woman seemed to have expected her words long ago, her smile remained unchanged, and she looked at Gray and Jula.
Gray reacted and said, "It should be, Dean, you should go shopping with Miss Anya, remember to take care of Miss Anya!" After saying that, he patted Du Di'an on the shoulder and encouraged him.
At this time, Aniya had already gotten down from her seat, turned around, and walked outside first.
Du Di'an looked at the smiles in the eyes of Gray and Jula, but he was very calm. After saying hello to the middle-aged beautiful woman on the opposite side, he turned around and followed behind Aniya, and left the hall together.
"This child is quite sensible." The middle-aged beautiful woman looked at Du Di'an's back and said with a smile.
"It's okay..." Gray said humbly.
...
...
On the street outside, Aniya looked at the young man in the black suit who followed, and waved her hand: "You don't need to follow, I'll just walk around."
"Yes, miss." The young man in the black suit covered his chest and agreed.
After he left, Aniya continued to walk in front without looking back or talking to Du Di'an, as if she was walking alone. Du Di'an has long learned to endure loneliness, quietly following her, watching the buildings on both sides of the street by the way, from these customs, one can infer the approximate living standard and technology level of the world.
After walking for a while.
Aniya suddenly stopped, Du Dian looked around and was fascinated, almost bumped into her back, only smelled the faint fragrance of flowers, floating from her clothes, and quickly distanced.
At this time, Aniya turned around, her age advantage made her a little taller than half of Du Di'an's head, and her beautiful snow-white melon seed face, without the slightest expression, looked down at Du Di'an quietly.
Du Di'an faintly felt a possibility and looked up at her quietly.
This calm made Aniya's eyes flash with surprise, but she quickly recovered her indifference and said, "Have you heard the opera "Violet"?"
Du Di'an was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that she would suddenly say this irrelevant sentence, and subconsciously she would answer no, but Aniya didn't give him a chance to speak, and continued: "Have you heard Mr. Fit's music? ?"
No. Du Dian just wanted to say.
"Do you know how to dance ballroom dancing?" Aniya continued in an indifferent tone, without giving him a chance to answer.
When Du Dian heard this, he already understood that this was not a polite inquiry, but questioning, and it was a question with undisguised contempt. He looked at her silently and quietly.
"Do you know how to equestrian?"
"Do you know swordsmanship?"
"Do you have ideas and pursuits?"
Aniya asked six questions in a row, then looked at Du Dian calmly, and said, "If you are a smart child, you should already understand that you and I are not from the same world."
Du Di'an looked at her beautiful face. He didn't expect that such sharp and even ruthless words would come out of the mouth of this child who was only three or four years older than him, and it was a matter of course.
