Chapter 54: Ritual(3/3)

Karen said while touching her hand:

"So, even if I live in Wein in the future, I will insist on cooking by myself, and I can also declare that you can be freed from the punishment of Wein cuisine for so many years."

Huh? He said he was going to live in Wayne?

Wait, is this a confession?

Eunice felt her body tremble at these words, as if an electric current passed through her body.

Karen said:

"Go to my house for dinner tomorrow. My family wants to meet you."

Eunice nodded:

"OK."



The car stopped in front of Eunice's house on Rhine Street;

The two stood face to face at the door. Karen noticed that the curtains in the living room on the first floor shook slightly.

"I'll pick you up tomorrow afternoon."

"good."

Karen stretched out her hand, hugged Eunice's waist, leaned forward and kissed her on the lips.

After the second kiss, she learned to close her eyes.

"Good night, sweet dreams."

"You too, drive carefully."

"Um."

Eunice walked into the living room, and her mother sat in a familiar position, with the lights out and on the sofa.

"It's progressing so fast." Mrs. Jenny smiled and said, putting the cigarette in her hand to her lips, "Wow."

"Is mother laughing at me?" Eunice asked.

"No, I'm happy for you. You know, I've seen too many marriages. They generally seem to be inseparable. They may pretend to be a formal love in public, but anyone with a discerning eye can see it at a glance.

Behind the scenes, they may each play their own games without interfering with each other.

I'm sorry, my daughter, I can't change your grandfather's decision. As a mother, I have failed.

However, it seems pretty good now and you are enjoying it."

"Mom, I feel that these words coming from your mouth are a bit inappropriate."

"My daughter is getting older, is there anything inappropriate? By the way, did you buy those things I taught you to buy for her?"

"I bought it and he likes it very much. Oh, by the way, I promised to go to his house for dinner tomorrow."

"Hmm." Mrs. Jenny suddenly noticed something and asked, "Then he didn't buy you anything?"

"Mom, do you know how late it is after we finished buying those things? We went to eat."

"Oh, that's outrageous." Mrs. Jenny sighed, "How could you be so embarrassed to just ask the woman to give you something without saying anything? His family is not short of that kind of money, so this should be the place..."

Mrs. Jenny pointed to her temple:

"Is there no sense of etiquette here at all? Doesn't he know how embarrassed the girl will be when she comes back empty-handed to face her mother?"

"Mom, I don't lack anything, and he won't lack anything I bought for him today."

"Of course, there is definitely no shortage, but the joy of a daughter showing off to her mother the gift her boyfriend bought for her is gone."

"I don't care about this."

"It's your business whether you care or not. It's his business whether he does it or not. If he wants to follow you back to Wien, it seems that he needs to be re-educated. Just being good-looking is not enough.

Alas, I have to teach him what etiquette is. After all, our family is very particular about etiquette."

"but……"

"But what?"

"He gave me a bookmark and asked me to give it to you so that you could give it to your father or grandpa on your behalf. This was given by his grandpa."

"Bookmark? Ha, childish." Mrs. Jenny laughed disdainfully, "Why doesn't he go to the roadside to pick a foxtail plant and make a ring for you to wear?"

"This is it." Eunice placed a purple bookmark on the coffee table in front of her mother.

immediately,

"Plop" sound,

Mrs. Jenny knelt down directly in front of the bookmark.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Eunice immediately stepped forward to help her mother.

"I'm fine, I'm fine." Mrs. Jenny showed a forced smile, "You go and wash up first, I'm fine, it's just that my legs are a little numb after sitting for a long time."

"Are you really okay, Mom?"

"It's okay, it's okay. You go and wash up first."

"OK."

After Eunice leaves,

Mrs. Jenny tried to pick up the bookmark with trembling hands, but when her hand reached halfway, she switched to two hands together and carefully "picked up" it.

Eunice, who had changed into home clothes, came over with a glass of water:

"Mom, are you feeling better now?"

She found that there were many jewelry that her mother usually wore on the coffee table, and the jewelry box was closed and placed there.

Mrs. Jenny took a deep breath and said slowly: "Tomorrow, I will accompany you to his house."

"Huh?" Eunice asked doubtfully, "Does it need to be so formal?"

Mrs. Jenny is like a cat whose tail has been stepped on,

Almost jumping up from the sofa:

"We can't be ignorant of etiquette!"

"Huh?"

Mrs. Jenny covered her forehead with her hands and sat back on the sofa.

"Mom, are you really okay?"

Mrs. Jenny shook her head, looked at her daughter, and said:

"If you don't want to come back tomorrow night..."

"What?"
