What It’s Like Being a Vampire - Chapter 603
Mother Tang smiled and said, “Is this hard to guess? How can you buy this style of jewelry yourself? You don’t like to wear things on your wrists. The old and expensive jade bracelet that your aunt bought you before. , You never want to wear it. And, even if you really want to buy jewelry, it must be the kind of… how to say… the style of the animation villain, just like the little plastic people of your special baby before “
Mother Tang said, pointing to the bracelet on Tang Baona’s wrist: “Look at your bracelet again, this material, this texture, I don’t believe you will buy it yourself. I heard your grandfather say before. Kun knows how to do woodcarving, and he is very good at swordsmanship. I have also seen the canary woodcarving given to him by Xiang Kun. It is indeed very beautiful. If I don’t say it in advance, I must guess which master’s work is. I also heard Tingting say, Xiang Kun often makes woodcarving villains to give to you, so I see, your bracelet, this simple style, should be made by him, I guessed it
correctly, right?” Seeing my mother a little proud, Tang Baoting endured I couldn’t help holding my sister’s hand, and put the bracelet in front of my mother: “Mom, you first take a good look at the texture of this, hey, this is not a primitive style.”
Mother Tang squeezed her daughter’s hand. After squinting his eyes for a while, Dad Tang immediately got up and went to the TV cabinet and took Tang’s mother’s reading glasses to help her put it on. He also thoughtfully found the magnifying glass for reading the magazine.
“Oh, this Xiaoxiang is fine. He can engrave so many things on such a small bead. Is this painting? Hey, who is this little girl with glasses, very cute.” Mother Tang saw the engraving on the beads. After the picture, I was a little surprised.
“This must be Nana!” Tang Baoting insisted, “It was given to Xiang Kun. It must be Nana. Mom, look at this bead here. The cute fat child on it is called Little Bell. He Xiang Kun and Nana are very close friends.”
“Hey, it’s really like Nana when I was a child.” Mother Tang nodded repeatedly.
“Sister, I haven’t said who did this!” Tang Baona retracted her hand and said dumbfoundedly.
“Come on, when you just went home and sat on the sofa, I glanced at it and knew that this must have been done by Xiang Kun.” Tang Baoting still said decisively.
Mother Tang also smiled and nodded: “That is, with your personality, if it is not, you would have said no. This is to be concealed, just acquiesce!”
“Yes, yes, and did you not find out about Nana? You basically I have to touch the bead on my wrist every few minutes. It’s a conditioned reflex action. How do you say that? Oh yes, you can’t put it down! Just put it down! I remember you didn’t wear it when I video with you last week This bracelet, this should be a birthday gift from Xiang Kungang?” Tang Baoting continued to tease.
Mother Tang hit the iron while it was hot: “Hey, by the way, you came back for your birthday this time, why didn’t you call Xiaoxiang together?”
“Why did you call him together ? He…he is going on a business trip. I am very busy. I haven’t seen you for a few days!”
“Oh~, so… I was very busy and I took time to make such a delicate bracelet for you? Judging from the complexity and finesse of the bracelet, finish it. It takes less than ten hours to do it, right?” Tang Baoting said with a smile.
Gaoyao, who stretched his neck slightly to look at Tang Baona’s bracelet, said with some envy, “More than that, if you want to carve this, you can’t do it without using a stereo microscope. I can’t do it for too long at a time. I guess Xiang Kun made this bracelet. From preparation to completion, at least three months to half a year in advance.”
Tang Baona also stayed for a while: ” Will it be so long?”
“I just estimated it casually. How long will it take ? I still have to ask Xiang Kun or Brother Feng…erh. No, Grandpa Feng, it’s not… Grandpa.” Gao Yao said that he was bald, he wanted to raise his hand and scratch his head in an embarrassing sense, and found that it was unhygienic to scratch his head while eating, so he put his claw-shaped hand on his head. After a while, he quickly took it down, his expression even more embarrassing.
Fortunately, everyone’s attention is not on him now. Mother Tang immediately answered: “Oh, people give you a birthday gift so troublesome, you have to invite someone to have a meal at home! You just don’t go back to the sea. I’m in the West, call Xiang Kun and ask when the business trip is over. I will fly directly to Shenhai and have a meal together. Then you will go back together. When the girl from the Yang family came to our house for dinner before New Year’s Eve last year, you would It is said that Xiang Kun will be a guest at home after the Chinese New Year. It has been a few months now. Hurry up. The Spring Festival is approaching soon.”
“Yeah, let’s have a meal together. By the way, let us also see Xiang Kun’s cooking skills. I heard your grandfather say that Xiang Kun’s dishes are really delicious, and rabbit meat is a must. I’ve been greedy for a long time. “Father Tang also touched his chin, said with a smile and gentle voice.
“Don’t think about it! Xiang Kun and I are now partners, good friends…” Tang Baona said quickly.
“I didn’t want to be crooked, we just want to invite your good friends and partners to dinner, thank him for taking care of our daughter, where do you want to go? What kind of crooked way should you want to be crooked?” Mother Tang widened her eyes. An expression of “Why do you say that is so strange”.
Father Tang smiled and nodded: “Just invite friends, invite good friends.”
Tang Baoting also nodded: “The first time I took Gaoyao home, that’s a good friend.”
Gao Yao froze, put down his chopsticks, and opened his mouth. I wanted to say something, but he paused for a second, then just nodded.
“I served you! Xiang Kun is very busy now, I will talk about it later, and… Dad, Mom, your focus should be my sister and brother-in-law now! When will their wedding be held?” Tang Baona said. It was another carbine and stabbed the old sister.
Sure enough, Mother Tang finally turned her head this time and asked Tang Baoting and Gao Yao: “By the way, Tingting and Xiao Gao, I asked you to discuss the wedding before, how did you discuss it? In fact, you can go back and get the details slowly. My dad and I met with my father-in-law and my mother-in-law, and set the date first. Didn’t we say that we should try to do this as early as possible when we were engaged before? Tomorrow we will go to your cousin Luo’s wedding. Many people asked, everyone is waiting.”
Upon hearing this, Tang Baoting’s cheerful smile was frozen on her face just now, and Gao Yao who was next to her also subconsciously lowered her head.
“Mom, Gao Yao and I thought about it. We are going to get the certificate first, and then we will eat a meal with the family and at most a few relatives and friends. The wedding is not in a hurry. We will do it in a few years.” Tang Baoting said with a smile.
“Huh?” Mother Tang was taken aback for a moment, very surprised, and looked at Gao Yao: “Is it… the opinion of the father-in-law and the mother-in-law?”
Gao Yao took a deep breath, as if he had made a decision. Just as he was about to speak, Tang Baoting took the conversation again: “No, it’s just a decision we both discussed together. His parents still don’t know. Mainly this paragraph I’m a little busy at work during the time. Hey, after the National Day and before the Spring Festival, there are too many things. Gaoyao and his company have many things to deal with. Now is a critical period, and their leaders are very respectful of him… So the wedding, to It’s okay to push back. I have all the certificates, and I’m a family. You think
Gaoyao has called you two parents a long time ago.” Tang Baona also quickly said: “In fact, there is no need to rush for the wedding of sister and brother-in-law, now When young people get married, they always talk about honeymooning for a while.”
She also discovered that her carbine was in the wrong position this time. However, she is now judging by the perception of emotional melody, as well as the expression changes and small movements of her sister and brother-in-law, but she knows that the two of them should have planned to talk to parents about this tonight.
And she can still tell that her sister and brother-in-law don’t want to have a wedding so quickly. It’s not the problem with Gao Yao’s career that her sister said. Of course, it will not be the reason of Gao Yao’s parents. She has also met the old couple of the Gao family. They are also very nice people and like Tingting very much. So the reason must be Gao Yao, which can also be seen from his small reactions.
As for the reason, Tang Baona also has a general guess. This brother-in-law is good everywhere, but she has some social fears. It is probably because of the large-scale social entertainment scenes like weddings.
Mother Tang’s brows were still frowning, as if she wanted to say something. Dad Tang immediately said, “It just so happens. I was thinking that we will go to Qiongzhou for two months this winter. If Tingting and Xiao Gao are going to have a wedding, then we will definitely not be able to go. , Now it can be a trip, hehe.”
Mother Tang naturally understood the purpose of what he said at this time, she couldn’t help but give him a blank look, and said, “Are you thinking about going to the beach to see beautiful women in swimsuits?”
“Hey, I The swimsuit I bought for you last year is ready to wear. It must look good.” Dad Tang smiled.
“Pay attention, the children are here!”
Tang Baona, Tang Baoting, and Gao Yao were all relieved when they saw things dealt with.
After dinner, they cut the cake together. By nine o’clock, Tang Baoting and Gao Yao were ready to go back to their nest. As for Tang Baona, although she also lived in her own place, Old San Yang did not come back with her. When she went back, she was alone and lonely, so she lived with her parents, and she had her room anyway.
Tang Baona sent her sister and brother-in-law to the door. When she waited for the elevator, she glanced at her parents and said in a low voice: “You don’t want to have a wedding for the time being, don’t breathe with me first, so I almost became a pig teammate.”
Tang Baoting whispered: “It’s okay. I got the certificate anyway. I convinced the parents on both sides. Small case.”
Gao Yao also whispered: “Actually, I thought about it this time. The wedding is not that scary… as usual. Bin married with kun help to manage, very well-organized. anyway, when he will be also our brother, we got married, but also cheeky look, asked him to come and help. ” “
this talk about it later, marriage is a happy thing, it must Get the knot when you are happiest, don’t treat it as an exam or task.” Tang Baoting patted her fiance on the shoulder and said.
Gao Yao’s expression changed, grateful, happy, embarrassed, and a little guilty, then stretched out his hand to embrace his fiancee’s waist and whispered: “Marriage with you is the happiest thing in my life.”
Waiting until my sister After her brother-in-law entered the elevator, Tang Baona, who looked “aunt smiling”, suddenly reacted: “Wait, what is’our brother-in-law’? Why is Xiang Kun just’our brother-in-law’?”
But the elevator doors have been closed and started going down Tang Baona, who was dumbfounded, could only complain to herself that her brother-in-law was broken by her sister, and then walked home.
In the living room, Tang’s father and mother were playing with the Switch fitness ring, twisting their buttocks, very happy.
Tang Baona smiled and looked around in the living room for a while, then returned to her room, then sat at the desk where she had been sitting for years before going to university, turned on the lamp, and carefully looked at the beads on her wrist.
The above bead string picture is too complicated and too many details. Although she has watched it many times and played with it for several days, every time she looks carefully, she always finds some newly discovered content, which is especially interesting.
With this bracelet, she has become more and more adept at perceiving the surrounding emotional melody and object melody. Using this perceptual judgment at night to successfully predict the behavior and intentions of other people made her very excited.
However, she also realized that when her own emotions were affected, such as when other people talked about things related to her, it would be difficult for her to perceive and predict through the melody steadily.
While watching the beads with gusto, Tang Baona suddenly heard a scream in the living room and was startled, she rushed out without thinking, because she heard that the sound was made by her mother.
As soon as she left the room, Tang Baona found in horror that her father was lying on the ground, clutching his chest, eyes closed, with a pained expression on her face.
Tang Baona was so scared that she had never seen her father in this state or expression.
“What’s wrong! Mom, what’s wrong with my dad?” Tang Baona rushed over, kneeled to the ground, and supported her dad with her mother.
“I don’t know… It’s all of a sudden… Old Tang, what’s the matter with you, you…” Mother Tang was very flustered, her voice was crying.
“Mom, calm down, calm down, dad, do
you have a
heartache ? Mom, my dad has a heart disease?” “No, your dad doesn’t have a heart disease.” Tang Baona saw that her father had no way to reply, and her face changed sharply, she immediately took it. I dialed the emergency number from my cell phone.
At this time, Mother Tang also suppressed the panic, got up and ran to the door: “The daughter-in-law of the old Lu family downstairs is a doctor, and she seems to be a cardiologist. I’ll see if she is there and ask her to help.”
My mother went to find someone for help, and the emergency phone said that the ambulance would be here soon. Tang Baona looked at her motionless father and tried to think that she had read relevant first aid science articles before, and wanted to see if there was anything she could do now. made. But there was a mess in her mind, thinking of something she didn’t dare to do, so she picked up the phone and subconsciously wanted to call Kun, instinctively felt that Xiang Kun should be able to help and guide her on what to do.
“Sister Nana, Sister Nana, put your hand on your father’s chest.”
A somewhat abrupt and familiar voice suddenly uttered from the mobile phone in her hand.
Tang Baona was stunned for a moment. This should have been a weird thing, a situation that should scare people up, but she suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of peace of mind.
So she subconsciously put her hand on Tang’s left chest, and instinctively used the left hand wearing the bracelet.
The moment she pressed her hand to her chest, opposite her, on the other side of Father Tang, a beautiful little girl in a white dress also knelt and pressed her hand to her hand.
The little girl looked up at her with eyes as beautiful as stars and jewels. She said, “Sister Nana, it’s okay.” The
little girl in the white dress disappeared in the next instant. At the moment when she was taken aback, her father’s voice sounded: “Nana , Help me sit up.”
Tang Baona looked down. Her father had opened her eyes and her complexion had recovered. He panted slightly and looked a little weak, but it was no longer the scary look just now.
“Dad, are you okay?” Tang Baona quickly helped her father up and sat down on the sofa.
“Huh…it seems like a ghost ran away, seeing a bunch of weird things, huh…” Dad Tang also looked scared.
At this time, Mother Tang brought up the doctor living downstairs and asked the doctor to check it first.
Tang Baona stood by, observing her father’s condition while touching the back of her left hand.
The little girl who just appeared suddenly was the little girl in the white dress who appeared on the wing when the bird swarms attacked before!
It was what Yang Zhener had shown her, what Lao Xia looked like when she was a child!
And judging from the sound, it was also the “elf” who hugged her leg behind her one night to prevent her from falling down the stairs!
Is this what really happened? Did she really show up? Or an illusion?
Tang Baona touched the back of her hand, recalling the fleshy, soft touch of the little girl’s hand on the back of her hand just now, it was extremely real.
She called me… Sister Nana?
