Chapter 375: The Children of the Ling Family
Speaking of this, Mrs. Six couldn't help but gasp.
"Don't spread this kind of thing, if it is known, it will ...... Invite death. ”
Mrs. Six was a little afraid to pat her chest.
Tao Xiaozhen chuckled, "Since you're afraid, you dare to spread it?"
"Besides, everyone has attended Shi Qingqing's funeral, she just died a normal death, and no one reported it. ”
"It's also ......"
Mrs. Sixth nodded, "The cremation was also very sloppy at the beginning, no one saw the body at all, I suspect that the person did not die at all, but was burned alive." ”
Thinking of this possibility, she got goosebumps all over her body.
It's scary to think about.
Tao Xiaozhen frowned slightly, "Don't talk nonsense about this kind of thing." ”
Although it is such a reprimanding tone, it is more just a taboo.
You can't talk nonsense.
Mrs. Six smiled, "I know, I know, what can be said and what can't be said, I don't understand it in my heart, and I'm just talking about it in front of you." ”
When did they become so familiar?
While the two were talking, there was a commotion from the other side.
It turned out that Mrs. Eight's child didn't know what to eat and was choked, but when she came out, she opened her mouth and cried.
The sixth wife said sourly: "The eighth brother and sister always have children, for fear that others will not know that she gave birth to a baby great-grandson to the Ling family. ”
Now the younger generations of the Ling family are working so hard to have children and create offspring, just because Old Man Ling likes to live a life of many children and many blessings.
After the old man dies, I am afraid that this trend will disappear completely.
I only hope that these people who use their children to get attention can treat their children well.
Tao Xiaozhen said: "Sixth sister-in-law, did your son go abroad to study?"
"No ......"
When she mentioned the sad matter, the corners of Mrs. Six's eyes were filled with tears.
"He's still in high school, attending a boarding aristocratic school, and he only comes back once a year, and I haven't seen my son for a long time. ”
Tao Xiaozhen was a little incomprehensible, "Since you miss your children so much, why don't you keep them by your side?"
"Alas...... It's good for kids. ”
"Not good. ”
Tao Xiaozhen frowned, "How many years is this year?"
In his third year, he was in the third year of junior high school. ”
"When I came back at the end of last year, I was thin and tall, and I wasn't very close, and I regretted it a little bit when I came to this house like a stranger. ”
Tao Xiaozhen was keenly aware of a problem.
It stands to reason that there should be many great-grandsons of the Ling family, but she can see very few.
This dinner was attended by many people from prominent families.
Tao Xiaozhen, as the host, greeted Ling Yaoxi at the door together.
Along with them were several other Ling family juniors.
Among them, Ling Yaoxi and Tao Xiaozhen are the most outstanding.
It's just that the guests who came and went just glanced at them a few more times, but praised the fourth and fifth grandsons of the Ling family to Old Man Ling.
Both of them are Ling Erye's children.
It's a weird feeling.
Old Man Ling seemed to attach great importance to Ling Yaoxi, and after the banquet began, he called Ling Yaoxi to follow him.
Before leaving, Ling Yaoxi specially told Tao Xiao to screen and avoid eating indiscriminately.
The mother and son seemed to know something, even the words they told.
Is she so unsettling?
If it was in the past, Tao Xiaozhen would have drunk a few more sips of wine, but this time Ling Yaoxi gave three orders, so she had to endure it for the time being.
"Hi, Miss Tao, long time no see. ”
While she was bored and playing with her fingers, a man's voice came from her side.
She turned her head to see that she was still an acquaintance.
Qi Lin?
"Why are you here?"
Qi Lin dyed his hair, especially well-groomed, dressed in a straight suit, and looked energetic.
I haven't seen him for just a few months, he is like a jade after being polished, there is no trace of sharpness on his body, there is no edge, but a little more gentleness, probably the edges and corners have been smoothed.
Tao Xiaozhen looked him up and down, and couldn't help but sigh.
"You...... A lot has changed!"
Qi Lin smiled shyly, "You haven't changed at all." ”
The two of them don't know each other, Tao Xiaozhen has a good impression of him, and smiled and gave up the seat next to him for him to sit.
"You're done studying abroad?"
"Yes, it's over. ”
Qi Lin looked at Tao Xiaozhen deeply, groaned for a while, and then took out the identity card he carried with him and hung it around his neck with a rope, and now because of his length and specialness, he hid it in his clothes.
"I'm a journalist now. ”
Tao Xiaozhen was stunned, "But didn't you say you wanted to be an artist?"
Qi Lin proudly took out the name tag on his chest to show her, "The water of being an artist is very deep, I suddenly feel that being a reporter is also very good, after all, knowing an excellent director like you, I should be able to make headlines more or less." ”
Tao Xiaozhen chuckled, "I won't reveal any news to you." ”
Hearing this, Qi Lin was a little injured and his expression was exaggerated.
"That's so sad. ”
The two talked and laughed, and after a while, a young woman stepped forward and looked at Tao Xiaozhen vigilantly.
She took Qi Lin's arm and said coquettishly, "How do you know that you won't come to me now?"
Qi Lin said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I met a familiar person and said a few more words, which made you wait for a long time." ”
The woman's hostile gaze fell on Tao Xiaozhen.
"Who is she, your friend?
The woman only thinks that Tao Xiaozhen is dressed up glamorously, it shouldn't be something indiscriminate, it is estimated that he is a hard bone.
Qi Lin was not aware of the silent hostility between the two.
The two were introduced.
This woman's name is Yu Qian, the daughter of the Yu family.
Tao Xiaozhen didn't remember any Yu family, so he just smiled and greeted her.
The woman wasn't interested in her, she just pulled Qi Lin to go somewhere else, and when she left, she whispered to Qi Lin: "This woman is too disrespectful to others." ”
Tao Xiaozhen heard what she said clearly, but she just didn't want to think too much about it.
Halfway through the banquet, Tao Xiaozhen was already hungry.
There were so many delicacies on the table, but she didn't dare to move.
This is the fourth lady who came over with a piece of cake, and handed it to Tao Xiaozhen with a friendly smile.
"Taste, the cake here is made by the Michelin chef, smooth and soft, sweet but not greasy, I see you haven't eaten since you came in, do you want to try it? The banquet is so long, you should be hungry." ”
Tao Xiaozhen refused with a smile, "I'm sorry, fourth sister-in-law, I've been losing weight recently, and I definitely can't eat after eight o'clock." ”
The fourth lady sighed with some regret.
"It's a shame. ”
She casually put the cake in Tao Xiaozhen's hand.
