The leisurely life of rebirth.

"If this is not in the United States, I would have thought it was on our own land." My mother pointed to the pedestrians on the road and said very strangely. "Look! People here also cross the road! Don't take the crosswalk! It doesn't matter if it's a red light or a green light. They don't obey the traffic rules like in China."

Fang Monan joked to himself: "It's not rare, everyone is a descendant of China!" She said again: "Dad, your wallet should be gone."

Dad looked at her in surprise, "Impossible." With disbelief on his face, it disappeared when he touched it, "You girl, although you don't have a few dollars in it, you can't just let someone steal it and you won't know." .”

"Your wallet is missing. Why are you so careless? Is there a lot of money in it?" Mom asked anxiously.

"Hehe...here it is!" Fang Monan flipped his hands out and said. [

"Ah! What's going on?" Karl asked enthusiastically.

"It's simple, the thief stole it, and she took it back." Liang Zi said clearly.

Fang Monan smiled and said nothing, "Hey! Look..." She tugged on her father's clothes and saw the thief again.

Dad deliberately and loudly taught: "You kid doesn't even look at the weather, who eats ice cream in the winter." It caused passers-by to look back.

"Ah! How did you steal my money!" A muscular middle-aged woman with a loud voice grabbed the big backpack in her hand and began to slam the thief.

Seeing that the thief was not the woman's opponent, Fang Monan gave him a blank look and said angrily, "Father, you are not kind! If you want to remind others, you can't discredit the black family!"

"Unexpectedly, I won't do it next time." Dad rubbed her and nodded to show his comfort.

"There's another time!" Fang Monan pouted dissatisfied.

"Haha..." Everyone was caught by the conversation between their father and daughter.Made me laugh.

"But the law and order in Chinatown is really bad." Dad frowned.

"Not only is the law and order poor here, but also the order is poor, and the morality is even worse. Things don't follow the rules, and they always try to take advantage of loopholes. Scams and abductions often happen. Both the parties and the victims are Chinese. Fake things are everywhere. Counterfeit products in Chinatown Famous in the United States. The New York City Police Department has raided many times, but it can’t be cured.” Fang Monan paused and said: “Actually, it’s not just here that the law and order is bad. The crime rate in New York is very high.” By the 90s, the new office The mayor, it will be much better if we vigorously rectify it.

Liang Zi continued: "Although there are unsatisfactory places in Chinatown in one way or another, it is also a place of good geomantic omen. The shops in Chinatown are always bustling with people, and the roads are always crowded with each other. The housing utilization rate in Chinatown is rare. Sometimes office buildings are separated by rooms. Next, a small place is filled with many "big-name" companies, and a small house number is full of different business nameplates." He pointed to the billboards and fronts on both sides.

"Yes! I really didn't find out if I didn't go into details." Carl said.

One-third of the shops here are restaurants, and there are mostly Lingnan people here, and most of them speak Cantonese. Fang Monan and the others found a restaurant with a very ordinary appearance.They arrived just as people at a table checked out and left.Fortunately, I came early, if it's time for dinner.It is estimated that there will be no table waiting in line.

Fang Monan and the others ordered scallion pancakes, crabmeat dumplings and pan-fried buns.They are all ordinary snacks.It tastes surprisingly good.The thin scallion pancakes are fried crispy, and when you eat it while it is hot, the scent of scallions penetrates from your nose, which is a double enjoyment for the senses of smell and taste.

The signature pan-fried buns here are also surprisingly good.The skin of the pan-fried buns is crisp, the meat filling is delicious and juicy, and you can taste the faint taste of old Shaoxing wine while chewing.

Dad said: "I didn't expect to eat authentic Chinese food here. I thought it was mutated to cater to Western tastes!"

"It's still delicious." Mom also said.

Of course it's delicious, Fang Monan used to work here.Very familiar with this place.It has not changed a bit for many years, it is still so antique and full of Chinese love. [

These days, my father and mother are very hungry.If it’s not enough, keep screaming until the feeling of eating is enough to stop! "Hehe... sorry, I ate too much." Dad said to Carl with a smile.

"I also eat a lot. I haven't found such a delicious restaurant in New York for so many years." Carl waved his hand. "Next time, I will definitely introduce my friends."

They settled the bill here in cash, and after the meal they went to Madison Avenue. This is a fashion paradise. There are a lot of first-line brands here. Of course, European brands are still the main ones.Famous for its boutique and brand-name stores, it has everything from big and small brands.Seeing that the men who were about to go shopping first surrendered, the father said: "You go shopping! I am waiting for you at the meeting cafe."

"Hehe..." Liang Zi echoed, "I'm with brother-in-law Zhengping, and here are two cards. Take them." He handed his mother and Hongye a bank card each.Niu Niu was left in Liang Zi's care. When women go shopping, it's better not to bring children with them to avoid accidents.

Fang Monan went shopping with his mother and the others, "Is there anything my mother wants to buy!"

My mother looked at the gorgeous clothes in front of her and thought about it carefully, "I really don't have any. Han Zhiqian brings a lot of clothes every year at home, and there are endless clothes."

After shopping for a long time, my mother finally bought an lp cashmere sweater, which is elegant and textured. The hand stitching, exquisite craftsmanship, leather details and personalized accessories ensure that it firmly occupies the leading position in the luxury boutique market.But obviously my mother didn't know this brand, and Fang Monan didn't ask how much it was when she swiped the card. Knowing the price, she definitely wouldn't buy it.

It was almost time. The hotel drove them to the place designated by Alan. It was a very simple store, but Fang Monan knew that it was very unusual and served guests in all directions.

First of all, bathing, maintenance, makeup, and hairstyles for the ladies, and finally choosing a dress, Hongye is a good choice, she is tall and has a natural hanger, so she chose an evening dress with shoulder straps embroidered with dark red flowers on white silk, It was too cold, and Liangzi chose a cashmere shawl for her, which just covered her shoulders and part of her bare back.

It's my mother's turn to make things difficult. My mother is not as tall as Hongye, only 1.6 meters two.With a petite frame, she wouldn't hold up to most western evening dresses.

Fang Monan chose for a long time.Finding a long white silk dress, she took it out and weighed it, rubbed her chin, and said to the clerk, "Change this with this." She kept making gestures.

The clerk was a little embarrassed, "I bought this dress, how can I change it to my order?" Fang Monan obviously had a soft expression, but in the clerk's eyes, his eyes were very sharp and irrefutable, so he quickly took it away Change up, two 10 minutes later.The changed clothes were brought over.

Mom put it on, Fang Monan looked around.The buttons couldn't be undone, so pearls had to be used instead, and the sleeves came to the elbows.The whole dress is simple and luxurious, and it perfectly complements my mother's figure. The slit on the bottom only reaches below the knee, and it's turned around. What's missing?

"It looks like a cheongsam." Hongye said, looking at the clothes on her mother from left to right.

"Is there any paint?" Fang Monan asked.

"Yes, what color do you need." The clerk said respectfully.

"Black." When the clerk went to fetch the paint.Fang Monan asked his mother to take off her clothes.Swipe... an ink painting, the moonlight in the lotus pond is displayed in front of everyone.

After the paint dries, my mother puts it on again.Fang Monan finished her long hair in a bun again, loosely, and took out a red hairpin from the space with his hands. There was only a white pearl on the red hairpin, and other decorations were inserted into the bun.After applying the smoky makeup, Hongye and the shop assistant were stunned.

"Let's go mom, let's go to fascinate dad." Fang Monan led his mom to the man.

"Dangdangdang... How about it!" Fang Monan led his mother into the middle of them.

The men who were still chatting were interrupted by Fang Monan's words. When they turned around, they saw their mother standing there, and their father's eyes were staring straight at him, capturing his soul and seizing his soul.

Liang Zi said: "Sister Dayan, you are so beautiful."

The mother who has been carefully groomed, coupled with Fang Monan's relentless nurturing over the past few years, this beauty is exquisite, perfect, intriguing, and exudes charm for a long time.Because, this is a mood, a self-restraint, an elegance, and a posture.

Cheongsam is an aesthetic and subtle symbol of oriental women.Because of the cheongsam, my mother has become so graceful, so reserved and classic, so sexy and seductive... The woman wearing the cheongsam, like an oriental ink painting, is faintly visible; like a lilac in a rainy alley, exuding a faint fragrance; The light lotus among the blue waves in the clear pond stands gracefully against the wind... Therefore, women wearing cheongsams are the most elegant, temperamental and beautiful.

"Tsk tsk...it's so beautiful." Allen muttered. "A classical and subtle oriental beauty."

"Hey! I don't remember that there are oriental costumes here!" Allen touched his chin and said.

"Hehe... There is nothing suitable for Sister Dayan here. This dress is modified according to Nan Nan's design, and the ink painting on it is drawn by Nan Nan on the spot." Hong Ye said, who came in style.

Allen yelled: "You two will amaze the audience and eclipse the women present."

It was getting late, and the men also put on black suits and dresses. Fang Monan and Niuniu were each chosen by their mother and Hongye to have a simple princess dress.

The brilliantly blooming rose pattern belt seems to bring girls to the back garden full of flowers. The pink roses are delicate and charming, making girls more attractive.With the romantic and elegant chiffon material, it is easy to become a sweet girl of pear blossom.The chiffon skirt is looming, like a playful elf.So now, Mo Nan was completely turned into a child by their spoofing.

The difference in temperament makes Fang Monan look beautiful, romantic, lazy and charming even in a princess dress.

"Let's go! Dayan." Dad stepped forward and bowed like a gentleman, making an invitation to dance.Mom looked at him coquettishly, put her hand in Dad's hand shyly, and took his arm.

Liangzi and Hongye are holding the little princess in the middle - Niuniu.

"Boss, let's go!" Fang Monan held Alan's arm.

After they left, the store owner hurried in from the outside and asked the clerk, "Why didn't you stop them!"

The clerk said aggrievedly: "Can I stop it?"

"Forget it, draw that dress for me." The store owner thought about it too.

"Okay! I'll draw it right away." The painting was exactly my mother's improved cheongsam. (to be continued)
