Poverty story after Tokyo actress

"Because Louis XIV hopes to put all the nobles under house arrest in this palace far away from the capital through this method, he built the palace extremely luxuriously, allowing all the nobles to live a life of extravagance here, and let them corrupt Bad, wasteful, disenfranchised..."

Just like that, the old and the young walked in the gorgeous garden, and in the distance was the marble palace with carved columns and painted columns.Although Nuoda's garden is not popular at all, the man's mature and stable voice and the girl's clear surprise sound are embellished, which makes the cold palace more lively...

"Mr. Jiang Bai, you know a lot..." Miyano said enviously.

"This is the benefit of living for a long time. I used to have the idea of ​​dying, but after experiencing more and more and seeing more and more, I realized that there are too many things in the world that are worth living to see... ..."

"……Um……"

Miyano lowered her head with remorse, and Jiang Bai looked at her lost face, chuckled, patted her on the back, and comforted her with a smile: "Okay, don't be sad. If you lose your horse, you know it's not a blessing. You Didn't you meet me?"

"The things you didn't have time to see... I'll show you..."

Chapter 57 So you are still a hidden tsundere?

"Ha! Huhu..."

Jiang Bai, who woke up from the dream, trembled from the co-pilot seat, and the feeling of falling crazily after weightlessness made her feel lingering fear even when she woke up.

"Fuck..." Jiang Bai couldn't help but send a C language to the man who did whatever he wanted in his own consciousness, while Zhenqin on the other side was startled by Jiang Bai's awakening, causing the vehicles that were driving at the moment to shake .

"Wow! Jiang Bai, what's wrong with you? Have a nightmare?" Zhenqin asked as she controlled the vehicle, looked at Jiang Bai on the side, and asked with concern.

"Ah... I can't remember..." Jiang Bai casually made up a reason to fool Zhenqin, then pinched the bridge of his nose, and stretched himself to wake himself up.

"How long have I slept?"

"Not long, just ten minutes."

"Ah... so you haven't reached mother's house yet?"

"Then let's go in no hurry, let's go to the business district first."

"Ah?" Makoto was taken aback for a moment, and quickly asked, "Aren't you going? Why?"

"Of course, buy something as a gift." Jiang Bai replied, and this also made Zhenqin suddenly realize, ah, yes, I am going to see my mother-in-law, why don't I buy some gifts for such an important thing?

After realizing the importance of this matter, Makoto drove off the highway and headed for the business district.She said to herself angrily while driving: "Ah, I almost forgot that I didn't notice such an important thing. Fortunately, Jiang Bai woke up early."

Hearing Makoto's words, Jiang Bai couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed. After all, he didn't think about it at all at first, and it was Miyano who woke him up.

"By the way, mother-in-law...ah, no, what does auntie like?"

"Well..." Jiang Bai recalled in his mind the precautions that Miyano told himself, there should be nothing missing.

"A lot, anyway, I'll tell you when I get to the mall."

"Oh."

Soon, the two came to the commercial street, while Jiang Bai looked left and right looking for the gifts he needed to buy.

"Hey, Jiang Bai, what does my aunt like?" Zhenqin, who was eager to please her future mother-in-law, kept asking Jiang Bai what she needed to do.

In this regard, Jiang Bai could only shake his head with a wry smile, and said: "You can find out if there are any succulents nearby. My mother likes to grow flowers, but her cultivation ability is not very good, and she needs to have stronger survivability."

"Oh! OK! Give it to me!"

After receiving Jiang Bai's reply, Zhenqin immediately patted her chest and pulled Jiang Bai to the flower area of ​​the shopping mall.Obviously, Zhenqin seems to understand the layout of the mall better than Jiang Bai.

The two picked two pots of small and exquisite succulents in the flower area and left the flower area, but Zhenqin was not interested: "Jiang Bai, you are really, you are obviously short of money, and you still don't let me pay... "

"Because these are gifts I brought to my mother, of course I can't let you pay for them." Jiang Bai replied as a matter of course.

Hearing Jiang Bai saying this again, Zhenqin wanted to open her mouth to refute, but her eyes rolled and she suddenly thought of something.Yu Shu's attitude changed and he no longer continued to struggle with this matter, but urged Jiang Bai to continue buying other things.

"Okay, well, since Jiang Bai, you don't want me to pay, then I won't pay, let's go buy other things, what else does aunt like?"

Jiang Bai's face was a little surprised by Zhenqin's free and easy reaction, she thought Zhenqin would talk to herself again.But it would be great for Makoto not to get entangled in this matter.

"Then, let's go buy some skin care products next... By the way, Makoto, do you know those skin care products are better and easy to use?"

"Oh? You're asking the right person~" Hearing Jiang Bai ask what he is good at, Zhenqin's face instantly became proud, and she pulled Jiang Bai into a skin care product store and began to choose Jiang Bai. The skin care products are up.

"This skin care lotion is good, not expensive, and the effect is good. This cream is also very good, and the price is high. This mask is very effective. Jiang Bai, you should also use it. Your good face is great, but you have to take care of it Just take care of it..."

While Zhenqin picked out a bunch of inexpensive and well-reputed skin care products and stuffed them into Jiang Bai's shopping basket, watching the shopping basket pile up more and more skin care products, Jiang Bai felt that his mind was almost confused.

What kind of skin care water, face cream, essence, toner, essence, cleanser, etc., the packaging is almost the same, why are the names different?Are there so many types of skin care products?

You know, Jiang Bai, who was an orthodox old man in her previous life, has never really touched these women's skin care products. The product that is closest to skin care products in her previous life may be Dabao SOD honey.

Jiang Bai doesn't understand these skin care products, so he can only hand over all the selection work to Zhenqin, while he holds the shopping basket and looks at the types and prices of the skin care products around him.I don’t know if I don’t see it, but I was shocked when I saw it. A small bottle of skin nourishing water can be bought for 10,000+ yen. Isn’t this really a money grab?

Look at the tens of thousands of yen skin care products that Makoto chose for herself. Although they are not cheap, they are much more affordable when compared.

"Ah... I think it's almost enough..." Jiang Bai suggested sweating profusely as he looked at Zhenqin who was still excitedly choosing. She may not be very good at using so many skin care products.

"Ah, um... well, Jiang Bai, go and pay the bill, and I'll take a look." Saying that, Zhenqin continued to linger between various skin care products, Jiang Bai didn't think much about it, thinking it was Zhenqin's hobby , went to the front desk to pay the bill.

I have to say that although these skin care products selected by Zhenqin are not expensive and easy to use, but such a large pile of skin care products, no matter how cheap they are piled up, it will be a big bleeding. It dropped sharply.

"Hey...there is a long way to go..." Jiang Bai sighed slightly as he looked at the deposit that was far away from paying off the debt.

But at this moment, a loud shout sounded from her side: "Boss, these are all packaged."

I saw Zhenqin put a basket of skin care products on the front desk, and the skin care products inside were all luxury skin care products that Jiang Bai just looked like stealing money.

"Makoto you!?"

"Huh? What's the matter? Jiang Bai, you buy skin care products for your aunt yourself. That's your business. I bought these for my aunt~" Zhenqin smiled softly and brushed her hair. This wave is for Jiang Bai Against the generals, Miss Makoto is victorious!

"..." Jiang Bai, who was speechless by Zhenqin's reply, opened his mouth, and finally he could only shake his head speechlessly, and said helplessly: "You bought so much, and my mother can't use it...More Not to mention my..."

"Who said these are just for my aunt? There are some for you~" Zhenqin smiled slightly, picked out a few skin care products, and patted Jiang Bai's face: "Although Jiang Bai is naturally beautiful, but You have to take good care of yourself, otherwise, I will feel bad~"

"Tch..." Jiang Bai stretched out his hand to pick away the skin care products that Zhenqin slapped on his face, and turned to the side with a blushing face.

"Hey hey hey~ I didn't expect Jiang Bai to be a little arrogant~"

"You are so arrogant, your whole family is so arrogant..." Jiang Bai replied stubbornly to Zhenqin, but he still took all the skin care products in Zhenqin's hands honestly, looking at the expensive bottles and jars inside. Can, even if I don't spend my own money, I can't help but feel pain.

"These...are so expensive..."

"Khan~ I'm not short of this little money, as long as Jiang Bai, you and mother-in-law... Bah, auntie is happy, it doesn't matter how much money you spend! Auntie is so happy to see these high-end skin care products~"

"That's a pity, as long as I get to my mother, these skin care products can only be street stalls for a few thousand yen..." Jiang Bai helplessly poured a bucket of cold water on Zhenqin.

"Huh? Why!?"

"It's too expensive and she doesn't want to use it..."

"...Okay..." Zhenqin's face collapsed in an instant, and she felt like she was going to the mobile game Wankrypton, but nothing came out...

Seeing Zhenqin's disappointed face, Jiang Bai couldn't help laughing. She patted Zhenqin's head and comforted her: "Well, although mom doesn't know, I know. So, thank you, Zhenqin."

Said Jiang Bai rewarded Zhenqin with a kiss.

"Hey hey hey~" In an instant, Makoto's complexion immediately changed from cloudy to clear, as if Wan Krypton's last round of ten consecutive one-time card pools had been completed.

Looking at Zhenqin who was so easily satisfied, Jiang Bai smiled wryly and shook his head, pulling her to continue buying the remaining gifts.

"Hey, don't you want to buy more snacks?"

"Mom, she eats slowly. If there is too much, it will expire after a long time."

"You can buy more sugar, my sister likes it."

"Don't let her eat too much, it will cause tooth decay."

"I bought so much white paint..."

"Because my sister studies art, which is the most lacking thing."

.........

After half an hour of shopping in the mall, Jiang Bai and Zhenqin returned to the car with a full load. Looking at the products that had been piled up in the back seat, Jiang Bai scratched his head helplessly, thinking that he could not buy more, but the real purchases I still thought about doing a little more, but it turned out to be like this now...

"Well... I really envy you Jiang Bai..." Suddenly, Zhenqin mumbled while holding the steering wheel.

"Huh?" Hearing Zhenqin's unreasonable sentence, Jiang Bai was slightly taken aback.

"Because you can remember the favorite things and habits of your mother and younger sister so clearly. I... until now I don't even know what my mother's hobbies are. The whole family is very busy. Except for holidays, I basically can't get together. Let's have a meal together..."

Zhenqin explained to Jiang Bai, looking at the gifts piled up in the back seat through the rearview mirror, there was a trace of emotion in his eyes: "Now let me go back and see my parents, I don't even know what to buy for them ..."

"..." Zhenqin's words also made Jiang Bai fall into silence. In fact, if Miyano hadn't told her, she wouldn't know these things.Being able to remember so many things, Miyano is not the usual mother and sister who loves her...

Seeing Zhenqin's depressed mood, Jiang Bai felt that he should make her happy.

"It's good to get in touch more. How about, next time, I'll go to your house? I just think I should meet my father-in-law~"

Chapter 58 The Indescribable Black Hole Coffee

"This is the cake shop? Wensen Bakery?" Zhenqin drove to an old pastry shop. Although the decoration outside the shop was a little old, the interior decoration was still clean and tidy. shop.

"Well, this is it..." Jiang Bai looked at the nameplate hanging on the store, nodded, then opened the door, got off the car and walked into the store.

"Oh hayo..." After entering the store, Jiang Bai greeted softly. It is not the peak period of traffic, and there are no customers other than Jiang Bai in the store.And a young man lazily put his legs up on the cash register, sitting in the background and reading the newspaper leisurely.

"Ah... oh, what do you need?" The man responded to Zhenqin, but he didn't look at Jiang Bai at all, and he was still reading the newspaper by himself, obviously not paying attention to his work.

"Here's a piece of orange mousse cake, three people... no, it's for four people."

"Orange mousse?" Hearing this request, the man was slightly taken aback, then put down the newspaper in his hand and looked at Jiang Bai standing in the store, his face brightened.

"Hey, it's Jiang Bai. I didn't say anything when I came here. I thought you had changed your temper. Orange mousse, right? For four people... Do you have a guest to invite?"

The man greeted Jiang Bai familiarly. Although for Jiang Bai, the man in front of him was very strange, but Miyano reminded herself that she knew that the man in front of him should be the Kiryu that Miyano said.

"Ah, yes, I have to bring more people this time, so I have Lao Kiryu for you..."

"Huh?" Hearing Jiang Bai's reaction, Tongsheng couldn't help but frowned. He looked back at Jiang Bai in confusion and asked, "You... are you really Jiang Bai? Will you be so polite to me?"

"...I'm happy today, don't just give you some face and just jump!" Jiang Bai's face darkened and he scolded Tongsheng angrily.

But this instead made Kiryu nod his head, showing such an expression, and then muttered: "Oh, Barry, it's still the same."

Immediately, he turned and went into the cake room to make cakes.

Jiang Bai, who was standing in place, was relieved. Fortunately, he reacted quickly, otherwise he would be exposed.It seems that Miyano usually has a rather savage attitude towards the acquaintances around him, which is not what Jiang Bai expected.

And at this moment, Zhenqin also parked the car and walked into the bakery, looking curiously at the dazzling array of dim sum around her.

"Well, it looks delicious, Jiang Bai, did you often buy pastries here?"

"Ah, yes, from childhood to adulthood."

"Oh! That's amazing, I must try it!" Hearing Jiang Bai say this, Zhenqin's face couldn't help but brighten. According to Jiang Bai's cooking skills and taste, it must be a pastry shop that can let her grow from snacks to big. It has its advantages.

"If I recommend it, it's orange mousse. The owner of the store is making it in the back kitchen. Let's just wait." Jiang Bai, who didn't know much about this store, didn't dare to let Zhenqin buy it casually, so he could only pull Watching Makoto wait honestly for Kiryu to make the orange mousse.

After a while, Kiryu walked out of the back kitchen with the wrapped cake in his arms, and at the same time, he held a cup of steaming coffee in his hand.

"Ahahaha~ The cake is here~" Tongsheng, who walked out of the back kitchen, put the cake on the front desk and sent it to Jiang Bai. Yes, would you like to try my new coffee?"

"...Forget about coffee..." Jiang Bai thought of Miyano's reminder, and shook his head again and again. Although he didn't know how to drink it badly, but Miyano didn't recommend it or try it.And Makoto also came up from the side suddenly, looking at the cake curiously.

"Huh? Who is this?" Seeing Makoto next to Jiang Bai, Kiryu's eyes lit up, wow, she is a beauty no worse than Jiang Bai!And it looks familiar...

"Ah, this is the friend I want to invite, you can choose her Makoto."

"Oh~ Miss Makoto, hello, hello, it's a pleasure to meet you, I feel like I've met you somewhere." Kiryu blurted out, but suddenly realized that his words seemed to be somewhat ambiguous, so he quickly waved his hand and said: "Ah, I didn't mean to strike up a conversation, I really think Miss Makoto looks familiar to you..."

Jiang Bai on one side rolled his eyes, took Kiryu's cake, and said angrily: "That's for sure, Makoto is an actress, you saw the role she played when you watched TV, naturally you feel familiar .”

"Hey!? Really? Jiang Bai, you will make such a friend?" Kiryu asked in disbelief.

And Jiang Bai cut it, and gave Tongsheng a look that had never seen the world.

On one side, Makoto watched the conversation between the two curiously. She saw Jiang Bai talking to people like this again. Although Jiang Bai and Tongsheng were sarcasm at this moment, the atmosphere was not angry. It's more like a feeling of hurting friends and pitting each other.

It seems that these two people should be good friends who have known each other for a long time.

"Hello, I'm Hoshino Makoto, an actor, please give me your advice." Makoto introduced herself to Kiryu seriously, and Kiryu's eyes lit up, and he quickly responded with a handsome pose.

"Ah, hello, Ms. Makoto, my name is Kiryu Qiao. I have played with Jiang Bai since I was a child. I am currently studying for a graduate student in physics. Now I am working part-time to show the old man the shop. If you want to know some secrets about Jiang Bai, you can ask me. ~"

With that said, Kiryu skillfully brought the coffee in his hand to Makoto, and invited: "Come here, it's the first time we meet, this is the coffee I brewed by myself, it's just a treat, I hope you can taste it, and after tasting it, I hope you can give it to me." Comment."

"Eh? Really? Thank you so much~" Looking at the coffee Kiryu sent over, Makoto thanked with a slight smile. The color of this cup of coffee was deep and thick, and the dark color absorbed the light from the mouth of the cup like a black hole.
