Time Travel: Female Cannon Fodder of the Republic of China

Chapter 99 Bai Zhangwen's New Report

Ina really didn't expect that the bad things Li said could make her so happy.

Li Maili really didn't understand what was so good about staying at the door. Ina was also laughing for no apparent reason. How beneath the dignity of an elder!

"Yina, don't laugh so loudly, or you'll be disliked!"

Ai Shutong immediately retorted: "How could such a beautiful laugh be disliked?"

"Mrs. Ina's smile not only made me feel relaxed, but also infected me with a bit of happiness!"

Li Maili was so angry at these two nasty women that he was fuming.

He decided not to give out the red envelope in his pocket!

While eating, Ai Shutong learned that the red wine pheasant on the table was made by Ina herself, and expressed her appreciation for her cooking skills.

"I didn't expect that you can not only cook, but also cook so deliciously!"

Ina was very surprised, "Our tastes are very similar! I didn't expect you to be able to eat Western food."

Ai Shutong: "As long as Chinese or Western food tastes good, I love it!"

The two chatted and soon became good friends.

Ai Shutong called her Ina, and Ina called her Shutong in a strange voice.

Ai Shutong smiled and said, "Is the pronunciation of Shutong a little difficult for you French people to master?"

"If you find it difficult, you can call me Ai or Tong!"

“My other foreign friends all call me Ai!”

Ina: "Oh! You are so thoughtful! I decided to call you Tong! This way I will have your own name, which is great to think about!"

Li Maili stared at the two of them with dead fish eyes, "Shutong, you can call Yina Auntie. If you don't like it, you can call her Auntie!"

Auntie is his bottom line!

How can you call me by my name? That's so rude!

Before Ai Shutong could refute, Yina shouted, "Oh! My God! Honey, I'm so young, I can definitely be Shutong's sister, but you asked her to call me aunt?!"

Ai Shutong and she formed a united front: "Yina is so young, and she doesn't mind me calling her by her name, you don't have to worry about this!"

Li Maili felt that it was a wrong decision to let this bad kid visit him...

After dinner, the two enthusiastically discussed clothing and makeup.

"Tong, this dress you're wearing is very beautiful!"

Ai Shutong said confidently: "I knew you would like it! The Loloko style was popular in Paris for a long time."

Ina: "Yes, we French women prefer skirts with big hems. What do you think of the one I'm wearing?"

After taking a closer look, Ai Shutong suggested, "This skirt is very beautiful, but if the neckline is changed to a square neckline, it should be more suitable for you than the current round neckline!"

Ina: "Oh? Then let's try it?"

Ai Shutong nodded happily.

Li Maili had no chance to get in, but just then a Jewish friend called and asked him to have tea, and he immediately agreed.

With the help of their maid, Ai Shutong and Ina successfully changed the neckline to a square neckline.

After Ina put it on again, it really looked better than the crew neck one.

The two of them spent the entire afternoon tinkering with Ina's cupboard!

When it was time for dinner, Ina made a suggestion: "Tong, let's open a clothing store together!"

"I think you are very talented in this area."

Ai Shutong certainly didn't want to miss this opportunity, but she didn't have much time now.

"My master said that he would send me to school and hire a tutor for me. I don't have much time to run the clothing store."

Ina said with some regret: "I am managing the wine business for Li and my father, and I don't have much time to do other business."

July 4nd, rainy.

Raindrops hit the study glass.

Ai Shutong, who was immersed in the world of English novels, was attracted by the sound of rain hitting the glass.

She stood up and opened the window, and fine raindrops fell on her head and shoulders.

Aunt Li, who was collecting clothes in the yard, saw this and hurriedly shouted, "Miss, close the window quickly. You will get sick if you get caught in the rain."

Ai Shutong smiled at her and obediently closed the window.

After returning to the house, Li Ma boasted to Li Zhong: "I just saw the young lady open the window. I was afraid that she would get sick, so I asked her to close it. The young lady knew I was right and closed it immediately."

The Ai Shutong she mentioned had already picked up an umbrella and was ready to go out.

"Miss, do you really not want me to follow you?" Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Xia Yu wanted to go out with her.

Ai Shutong shook her head: "I've been out for several days in a row, nothing will happen!"

After leaving the gate, Ai Shutong hailed a rickshaw and said, "Let's go to the street where there are more newspaper offices."

The driver looked at Ai Shutong in confusion. Although he didn't understand where the customer was going, he would not refuse business that came to his door.

The street scene in front of them kept receding, and soon they were out of the concession.

When she saw the familiar black words on a white background, Ai Shutong quickly shouted, "Stop the car!"

The driver stopped obediently.

After paying the fare, Ai Shutong walked straight to the "Bai Hua Wen Xin Bao" on the street.

I never expected to see this newspaper in Shanghai.

She walked in, clutching her handbag tightly. When she saw the scene inside, she felt as if she had traveled through time again.

There are several tables on a space of about 30 to 40 square meters, with newspapers on them. A tall man is busy working with his back to the door.

This was exactly the same scene she had seen in Beijing's "Baihuawen Xinbao" a few years ago.

"Hey, what do you do?"

The familiar words suddenly brought Ai Shutong back to reality.

"Puchi—hahaha—" She couldn't help laughing out loud.

The tall man looked at her strangely.

Seeing that she was wearing a high-end Western dress, although her behavior was a little strange, he did not make any move to drive her away.

Ai Shutong: "Why aren't you in Beijing?"

The familiar tone of voice suddenly made Zhan Yongwen feel embarrassed. He thought he had met an old friend or classmate, but he had forgotten about that person.

He had been stopped by a classmate on the street in Beijing before, and the other party called out his name, but he had long forgotten him.

The other party reminded him that he was a classmate, and he suddenly realized and said, "Oh! You are my middle school classmate!"

But the other party told him that he had never been to middle school...

That's my elementary school classmate?!

He had attended two elementary schools, and he told her about the first and second elementary schools, but she still shook her head. After talking for a long time, he still couldn't figure out when they were classmates...

"Hello, I just came to Shanghai to develop a new newspaper. Please take a seat!"

Zhan Yongwen quickly turned around and moved a chair for Ai Shutong!

Ai Shutong: "Then your Baihuawen Newspaper is doing well in Beijing!"

Zhan Yongwen: "Not bad, not bad, I can make a living!"

Ai Shutong: "I used to like reading novels in your newspapers. Do your Shanghai newspapers publish novels?"

Zhan Yongwen: "Of course, we have already published two issues. Let me show them to you!"
