"What, Shanghai? Are you going to Shanghai?" old man Dongling asked suspiciously.
Tang Lingxi swallowed the bread hard, put down his knife and fork, smiled and said, "from today on, I want to go to work and join the white-collar family!"
When old man Dongling heard that Tang Lingxi was going to work, he looked unhappy and said, "no, you can't go to work." Tang Lingxi was a little stunned and asked, "why?"
The old man of Dongling shook his hand and said, "you are the daughter-in-law of my Dongling family. It's not proper to go out and show your face!" Tang Lingxi immediately felt a group of crows floating over his head. What era is it? He also said that it's not proper to show your face?
The old man of Dongling continued to express his opinion: "I don't know. I thought I couldn't afford a daughter-in-law in Dongling!" Tang Lingxi bowed his head and said nothing. The old man of Dongling was secretly happy. He just raised his hand to eat breakfast, but Tang Lingxi grabbed the fork. He bit it empty.
Tang Lingxi frowned and asked, "why do I stay at home all day instead of going to work?"
Old man Dongling took out his fork from Tang Lingxi's hand, leisurely ate breakfast and said, "you can go anywhere you want in Britain, France and Australia; you can go shopping and buy any clothes you want. How nice. Don't girls like clothes best?"
Tang Lingxi said solemnly, "Zang Ke's family said: some people live, but he has died; some people die, but he is still alive. What's the meaning if I travel or buy clothes every day?
Seeing Tang Lingxi's serious appearance, the old man of Dongling felt fluffy in his heart. Dare you feel that the child is more serious?
But he still shook his head and said earnestly: "Lingxi, traveling and buying clothes are all knowledge. The customs and customs of each place are different. Don't be stubborn. How many people work hard every day to earn money to support their family. They can't live such a life."
Tang Lingxi inhaled deeply and said, "a meaningful and valuable life is to meet all kinds of opportunities and experience different lives. The golden bird cage is good, but it is not as good as the open blue sky, with strong winds and rainstorms, and more beautiful."
Seeing that old man Dongling didn't answer, Tang Lingxi continued to be moved with emotion and reason: "if you want to do nothing every day, you just eat, drink and have fun, that's the life others want, not mine. Think about it, if you didn't work hard, how could there be a famous family in Dongling? Your own life, if you didn't struggle when you were young, what would you remember this life when you were old?"
Old man Dongling was speechless. He took a sip of milk and said, "well, since you are so firm, I can't stop you. Have a good breakfast first and go out if you can." then he left the table and looked back at Tang Lingxi meaningfully.
Tang Lingxi thought that old man Dongling had compromised and watched him go to the study. Then he quickly ate the ham and eggs in the plate and went back to the room to get his coat.
Tang Lingxi picked up the light colored coat placed by the bed and heard a "squeak" and closed it. She had a bad feeling in her heart. She immediately ran to the door, pulled the door lock a few times and found it locked.
Tang Lingxi patted the door hard and shouted, "open the door, open the door, I didn't go out, I'm still inside." it was quiet outside without any response.
Tang Lingxi felt more and more wrong. He continued to beat the door hard and shouted, "let me go out and open the door quickly." outside the door, old man Dongling touched his chin and smiled proudly: little girl, it's still far away to fight me.
The housekeeper approached the old man of Dongling and was stopped when he was about to speak. The old man of Dongling waved his hand and motioned the housekeeper and little peach to leave with him.
When he came to the living room, the old man of Dongling said to the housekeeper, "tell me to go down. No one is allowed to open the door without my consent. In addition, chicken wings and sweet and sour ribs should be prepared for lunch. The girl likes to eat and calm her down."
The housekeeper hesitated and said, "is that ok? Miss Lingxi really wants to work."
Old man Dongling glanced at the garden and said, "it's all right, that's it."
Tang Lingxi shouted for a while, sat down beside the bed dejectedly and looked at the alarm clock on the table. It was already 8:30. "Alas", Tang Lingxi lay back on the bed and conveniently picked up his coat to cover his head.
Suddenly, Tang Lingxi sat up in an instant, took off the coat on her head, then covered it on her head and took it off again. As soon as she looked back, the light from the window was very bright. As soon as her eyes turned, "hee hee" smiled, God closed your door and would certainly leave you a window.
Tang Lingxi put on his coat and went to the window door to try to open the window. In a moment, he turned a smile into a sad face. He stepped back and sat down on the bed. Tang Lingxi stared at the locked window: old man Dongling was so resourceful that even the window was locked.
The second hand of the alarm clock was walking. Tang Lingxi lay in bed again and looked at the ceiling. He sighed in addition to sighing.
For a while, she turned over and patted the pillow, for a while, she tried to open the door or open the window, and for a while, she turned over the book. When she looked at the clock and was facing the nine characters, she felt cool.
Tang Lingxi immediately rushed to the dressing table, picked up the alarm clock, shook it and said to himself, "it's nine o'clock? No, I'm late for work on the first day. I'm going to be fired. I'm fired!" then he roared up to the sky: "why am I so miserable?"
She glanced at the mobile phone on the desk, picked up the phone and made a call. As soon as she got through, she cried, "Meili, I'm all bad." Jiang Meili just got ready to work and received a crying call from Tang Lingxi. She was worried and asked, "Lingxi, what's the matter? What happened?"
Tang Lingxi walked to the door and said, "I'm locked. I can't get out. What should I do?"
Confused, Jiang Meili asked curiously, "aren't you going to work today? Why are you locked? Where are you now?" while talking on the phone, she went to the bathroom.
Tang Lingxi squatted down the door with his back against the door and said, "I'm still at Dongling's house. The old man won't let me go to work. He locked the doors and windows. It's not easy to find a job. This is my first day at work. Now I can only wait for my squid to be fired, stuffy, fried and cooked at will."
The more Tang Lingxi said, the more he felt wronged, and tears swirled in his eyes. Jiang Meili comforted: "don't worry, don't worry, you call your boss first and say you'll go to the company one day later."
Tang Lingxi suddenly realized and answered: "yes, yes, but what should I say? That old man Dongling didn't let me go to work and was locked?"
Jiang Meili jumped up in a hurry and hurriedly said, "my eldest lady, you're stupid! Who dares to ask you to work when you mention the Dongling family? The Yangchun water is wet on your Tang Lingxi's finger, and maybe the company will be merged and swallowed."
