Urban drama: Starting from rejecting Fan Shengmei on a blind date

The old couple of the Fan family took their little grandson Lei Lei and set off directly to the Magic City, under the pretext of hiding from debt.

In fact, their intention was to go find their daughter Fan Shengmei and live a good life. In their opinion, Fan Shengmei had been in Shanghai for so many years and must have made something of herself, so of course they had to come and take a look.

Haha, it’s a pity that they don’t know that Fan Shengmei is only glamorous on the surface, and she usually only reports good news to her family and never bad news.

Her status in a family that favors boys over girls is already very low. If you look down on her, Fan Shengmei won't know if she will have a place at home.

After taking the high-speed train for several hours, they finally arrived in Shanghai. As soon as they walked out of the station, they stood in the big square of Shanghai and were dazzled by the prosperous night view in front of them.

As the most prosperous place in the country, Shanghai can be said to be a city that never sleeps, which is something their small county town cannot compare to.

They got lost on their first long journey and had no idea where to go.

Or they were worried about when their daughter would come to pick them up, and if they wandered around they might miss her. This made them feel like they couldn't leave, and they couldn't stay, so they could only stand there and look around.

Haha, at this time the old couple didn’t know that their unreliable son hadn’t called Fan Shengmei yet, and Fan Shengmei didn’t even know that they had come to Shanghai.

At this time, Fan Shengmei was accompanying Qu Lianjie in a drinking party. They were shivering in the cold wind, while Fan Shengmei was in the air-conditioned private room, drinking some wine and forcing a smile.

The tiny old couple of the Fan family looked even smaller in the square because no one remembered them and no one came to pick them up. They were waiting for hope that never came.

They had no phone to contact Fan Shengmei and didn't have much money on them. At that moment in the biting cold wind, they finally realized the consequences of their blind impulse.

After waiting for a long time, their patience was gradually worn out. They blamed their daughter Fan Shengmei for not coming to pick them up yet, saying that she was so unfilial.

"Grandma, I'm hungry."

Lei Lei, who was picked up here after school, has not had dinner yet. Children cannot stand being hungry, so he started to make a fuss.

Hearing her grandson crying out for food, the doting old lady quickly patted his head and comforted him, "Be good, Lei Lei. Your aunt will be here to pick us up soon. Ask your aunt to buy you something delicious then."

"But I'm hungry. I want to eat. I can already smell the delicious food."

Lei Lei was spoiled, so he didn't listen to his grandmother's words. Instead, he sat on the ground and started to throw a tantrum.

This immediately attracted the attention of the people around him. Then Lei Lei began to rub his nose, looking for the source of the fragrance, and then stood up and ran towards a stall.

Seeing this, the old couple hurriedly chased after him. There were a lot of people in the square in front of the station, and they didn't want to lose their grandson.

Lei Lei stood in front of a stall, staring at the big meat buns on the stall with wide eyes, swallowing his saliva continuously. It was obvious that he was really hungry.

"We adults can be patient, but how much can a child eat? Let's buy him some."

Old Man Fan spoke, and Mother Fan could only come forward and ask the price: "How much are these buns? Give me two."

"The vegetable bun is three yuan, and the meat bun is four yuan. Do you want the vegetable bun or the meat bun?"

Faced with the waiter's question, the old lady who was about to pay stopped suddenly. She didn't expect it to be so expensive.

"Is this a scam? A vegetable bun costs three yuan. Back home, it's only 5 cents. I'm telling you, we don't cheat people like this. Are you stuffing dragon meat here?"

The old lady who was reluctant to spend money immediately started arguing with the waiter, and the waiter became angry. The most important thing in doing business is reputation, not to mention that this is a train station, and prices must be higher than elsewhere.

The prices here are exactly in line with those in Shanghai. The old lady actually said that we are a black shop. Is she here to cause trouble?

"Looking at the clothes you're wearing, you can tell you're from the countryside. This is the price in our Magic City.

We clearly mark our prices and never cheat our customers. We are not a black market either. If you can't afford it, please don't bother me doing business.

If you think three yuan a bun is too expensive, I doubt you can live in Shanghai for more than two days. If you want to buy, I'll sell it to you. If you don't want to buy, please get out of my way."

The waiter's arrogant character obviously made him look down on the old lady, which immediately made the old lady unhappy. "You are too snobbish to be looked down upon for buying a bun."

"Steamed buns are meant to be eaten. Why are there differences between city dwellers and country dwellers when buying them?"

In response to the old lady's question, the waiter immediately retorted, "When buying buns, there is no distinction between city dwellers and country dwellers, but you are using the prices in the countryside to measure the prices in Shanghai, and that is your fault.

The meat buns at the shop next door are 5 yuan, you can go there and buy them, it’s definitely not a scam.”

The waiter also has a temper. This old lady actually said that her store was a black shop, so of course he would be angry, so his words seemed a bit excessive.

Old Man Fan saw his wife arguing with the waiter, so he quickly said, "Children can't stand being hungry. Just give us two vegetable buns."

Lei Lei took the bun handed to him by the waiter and started to eat it. The old lady reluctantly took out the money from her pocket, picked out a bill and handed it to him.

Haha, they only have a few dozen dollars on them, but they still have the courage to come to the Magic City. Obviously, they are going to rely on Fan Shengmei to cover the subsequent expenses.

After paying the money, Old Man Fan took his wife away. In this unfamiliar place, if you make a big deal out of it, they will be the ones who suffer.

The longer they waited, the more frustrated they felt. They wanted to borrow someone's phone to call Fan Shengmei, but unfortunately, the other party was guarding against them like thieves and obviously didn't believe them.

Telephone scams are so prevalent nowadays, and they look shifty and give people the impression that they are not good people, so no one lends them money.

They could have asked the patrol police for help, but unfortunately they didn't have the courage to do so. Fearing trouble, they thought maybe they should wait a little longer, wait a little longer, and maybe their daughter would come over the next moment.

Since they had been waiting for no one, they could only find a warm place to shelter from the wind, so they went directly to the underground passage.

Like ordinary workers, they found a place to sit on the ground. Only they themselves knew how helpless they were at that moment.

I haven't even started living the wonderful life I imagined, but I've already encountered such an embarrassing situation. I've really suffered a lot.

On the other side, the unreliable Fan Shengying finally thought of his parents. He first called home, but no one answered. This made him realize that his parents should have gone to Shanghai.

It was at this time that Fan Shengying remembered to call his sister Fan Shengmei, but unfortunately, three hours had passed since they arrived.
