Chapter 162: Reunion (5)
162
The twilight is getting thicker, and it is already dinner time, thinking of Mother Lin's words, Fu Zhixia has a headache. Most of the marriages in this wealthy family are driven by interests, and sincerity is especially precious under power and money. She absolutely didn't believe that she had any extraordinary charm that could make people fall in love at first sight.
"Miss, I'm going to dinner, Xiao Shanglu will hand it over to me. Mother Lin saw that Fu Zhixia was still holding a small bun, "It's the first time people come here, it's rude to take a child." Regardless of whether this person came to propose relatives or not, the person who came was a guest, and our Shen family should still have the hospitality. ”
Mother Lin interrupted Fu Zhixia's thoughts in a few words, Su Muyan gave a thumbs up to Mother Lin, and took Fu Zhixia's hand and walked towards the restaurant.
"As soon as people came, they wanted to use their son to cut off other people's thoughts, but no one saw it! What if they were talking about business, wouldn't it be a loss of etiquette?"
Su Muyan opened her sparkling eyes, and the two came to the round mahogany dining table, counted the bowls and chopsticks, and found more than one pair.
"Aunt Qu, are there so many guests today?"
Aunt Qu smiled and brought out a dish from the kitchen, and said with a smile: "Yes, I don't know what a good day it is today, the old man has a guest, the young master also has a guest, and the old house has not been so lively for a while." ”
"Hard work Aunt Qu. Su Muyan sniffed with a smile, "Aunt Qu's craftsmanship is really good, with all the color, flavor and taste, I think there will be more and more people who will eat in the future." ”
"Miss Su will praise people. My craft is not as good as Miss. ”
"Miss Bo, please come here. ”
When the voice of Mother Lin settled one after the other, Su Muyan felt that her body stiffened. She turned around slowly, and saw Bo Fei smiling beside Shen Jingshu, walking with him. She had changed into a brand new dress, a goose-yellow spring dress, which was lining her pink skin and full of youth, and the broken diamonds on the earlobes on the earlinings were shining with dazzling luster
Fu Zhixia squinted her eyes, and then looked at Su Muyan, although she was smiling, her face was already very ugly.
"Who is this person?The young master has never brought a woman to the house...... Aunt Qu muttered to herself, looking at the young woman with a bright face, thinking of Su Muyan, she quickly stopped.
The quasi-young grandmother in their mouths is not the Miss Su Muyan Su who temporarily lives in the Shen family in front of them? Why did such a young and beautiful person suddenly come?
But if you think about it carefully, the young master has not publicly admitted anything, and it is possible that Miss Su is temporarily allowed to live and has no other ideas.
After all, the current Shen Jingshu is different from before, he defeated Shen Hao and became the head of the Shen family, and Miss Su no longer seems to be the eldest lady of the Su family.
"It's really fateful, I didn't expect to meet again so soon. Bo Fei put her hands around her chest, the handbag in her hand was shiny, she turned her head sideways and looked at Su Muyan, "I didn't expect that Miss Su is a frequent visitor here, and she also eats here?"
"Mu Yan is not a guest. Fu Zhixia replied instead of Su Muyan, and politely made a gesture of please, "Miss Bo is a guest, please inside." ”
Bo Fei's suspicious gaze fell on Su Muyan's face, looked at Shen Jingshu again, and said with a coquettish smile: "Jingshu, I heard that you recognized your sister, congratulations." Miss Fu, oh no, it should be Miss Shen now, this is a little bit of my caution, please be sure to accept it. ”
The black box is delicate and chic, with the three-dimensional words "VQ" on it, and Bo Fei's smile is just right: "Just a little heart, if Miss Shen doesn't accept it, I will be very unhappy!"
"Thank you. Fu Zhixia took the small box in her hand, and heard a "huh", she raised her eyes to look at Bo Fei, the smile on Bo Fei's lips expanded, and her gaze was quite meaningful, "It's really a coincidence today, all the people who have met have met again." ”
Before Fu Zhixia could figure out what the smile suddenly appeared in her eyes, Su Muyan on her side pulled her sleeve, and she turned around to look at it, as if a lightning bolt had struck the top of her head.
If it wasn't for the hallucinations, how could she possibly see Huo Shaoting in the Shen family's old mansion?
Moreover, she was by Shen Wannian's side, the two seemed to be talking about something, looking at Shen Wannian's expression, it should be pleasant.
Her head was confused for a moment, Shen Jingshu had already taken a step towards the two of them, and when she arrived in front of Shen Wannian, she called respectfully: "Grandpa." ”
"Jing Shu is also back, this one, I don't need to introduce it to you, right?" Shen Wannian smiled, in a good mood. chatted with Huo Shaoting in the study for a while, and felt that this young man was not only good-skinned, but also open-minded and generous, and was a good talent.
"Mr. Huo. Shen Jingshu bowed slightly, "I don't know what Mr. Huo is here for?" At the banquet half a month ago, I remember to make my words clear. Grandpa is old, if you want something, you can come to me and talk to me. ”
Huo Shaoting narrowed his eyes, this brother-in-law has always disliked him, his heroic eyebrows frowned slightly, and his eyes were sharp in his chuckle: "There are things that are only suitable to tell the elders." ”
Shen Jingshu's intuitive eyelids jumped: "Oh, I don't know what's going on?"
"Shao Ting is thinking about his daughter-in-law, and he complained to his grandfather. Shen Wannian raised his eyes and looked at Fu Zhixia standing in the restaurant, and stepped away, "Go, eat first." That girl looked at Mian Sheng, Jing Shu, did you bring a friend?"
Before Shen Jingshu could reply, Shen Wannian smiled again: "Today is lively, our old mansion has not been so lively for a long time." Shao Ting, you have to have a few drinks with grandpa today. ”
Shen Jingshu was stunned for a moment, this Huo Shaoting and his grandfather can suddenly have such a harmonious relationship? What is going on? Even if the Shen family used to live with the Huo family, grandpa can't joke about Xiaoyu's lifelong happiness, right?
He glanced at Huo Shaoting unceremoniously, the man's gaze had already looked at Fu Zhixia, and his dark eyes were sticky with a color similar to warmth.
There were two more people in the old house at once, one was handsome and dashing Yushu in the wind, the other was delicate and lovely and smiling like a flower, and a table of people was standing there, and everyone's mood was not calm.
"Zhixia, I like to eat crabs the most, I'll sit here. ”
Su Muyan quickly pushed Fu Zhixia to Huo Shaoting's side, but with such a change, it was Bo Fei who was sitting next to Shen Jingshu.
Shen Jingshu's eyebrows sank slightly, I don't know if it was because of Su Muyan or because Fu Zhixia sat next to Huo Shaoting.
As Fu Zhixia's elder brother, he was against Fu Zhixia starting this marriage again. Not to mention how unpleasant their beginning was, just because the complex relationship between the two families is here, he can't trust Huo Shaoting very much.
Now it seems that he is interested, who knows what will happen in the future? Like his sister, he doesn't have to worry about not being able to get married, in short, he just wants to find someone who treats her well sincerely.
Bo Fei sat down happily, and when he looked up, he saw Shen Jingshu's side face, and his heartbeat immediately accelerated. She lifted the hem of her skirt and did it more dignifiedly, and when she raised her eyes, she happened to see Su Muyan looking over and raised her chin proudly.
Left and right is just a person who has lost his backer, can he really enter the house with a Fu Zhixia? The previous relationship was there, Shen Jingshu would not have looked at Su Muyan much before, but now he just pitied her, what is not a guest, she is a guest!
Shen Wannian took out his treasured good wine, he could see that he was very happy, he looked at Fu Zhixia, and said with a smile: "Xiaoyu, the friend that grandpa brought today, you should know each other, right?"
"......" Fu Zhixia's face looked very calm, and his heart was already turbulent. She hooked the corners of her mouth slightly, but didn't make a sound.
"It's a good day, it's time to celebrate. Except for whispers, everyone has to take a few sips. This wine is easy to eat, mellow in taste, Aunt Qu, fill everyone with a small glass. ”
"Grandpa, I drove here. ”
Fu Zhixia glared at the man beside him, he smiled good-naturedly, and grabbed her little hand under the table when she was defenseless, Fu Zhixia was about to break free, when he heard Shen Wannian's voice: "What's the matter with driving? Don't we have a room in the Shen family? If you get drunk, stay here for one night." ”
“......”
Fu Zhixia raised his eyes suddenly, and in the corner of his eye, he saw the triumphant smile of the man beside him, he tightened her little hand and let it go, and his voice was warm: "Thank you, grandpa." ”
Bo Fei on the side was also happy in his heart, if Huo Shaoting could stay overnight, then if she was drunk, she could naturally stay overnight.
She quietly glanced at Shen Jingshu and found that the man was looking at Huo Shaoting with cold eyes: "Where does Mr. Huo live temporarily, I can let the driver send you." ”
"That's so inconvenient, about one night, or living in the old house. ”
Shen Wannian spoke, and Shen Jingshu did not argue again. He really didn't understand, how could his grandfather be so happy to see Huo Shaoting, when his sister had no one either?
Su Muyan naturally found out Shen Jingshu's dislike, and quickly changed the topic, her brain was active, her eloquence was good, and she adjusted the atmosphere on the table in a few words.
"Mu Yan, you are really the pistachio of our Shen family, if Jing Shu marries you in the future, life will not be so dull. ”
As soon as Shen Wannian's words fell, she heard a "clang", it was the small plate in front of Bo Fei that fell to the ground, she brushed the ground and stood up, and the little maid behind happened to be holding a bowl of steaming soup, and with a collision, the hot soup spilled on Bo Fei's body.
The little maid was directly frightened, looking at Bo Fei's willow eyebrows in a daze, Shen Jingshu pulled Bo Fei's body away, and her tone was a little concerned: "How are you?"
"I'll take a look. Fu Zhixia didn't want to be with the man who disturbed her breathing rhythm at this moment, and wanted to take the opportunity to leave, so she heard Shen Wannian say, "Jing Shu also understands medicine, so let Jing Shu take her to the pharmacy to have a look, our Shen family's scald medicine works very well." Miss Bo, you hurry up and go to the medicine with Jing Shu. ”
"Miss Bo is a girl, I'll go along, it's more convenient. ”
Su Muyan got up with a smile, followed them in a few steps, and helped Bo Fei with concern.
Bo Fei hated her teeth and glared at Su Muyan fiercely, and Su Muyan replied with a big smile.
Joke, how could a man take her with her in such a sensitive position? Who knows what this second lady of the Bo family will do?
As soon as these three people left, only Fu Zhixia, Huo Shaoting and Shen Wannian were left on the table. Shen Wannian looked at Fu Zhixia's not very good-looking face, picked up the wine glass and said to Huo Shaoting: "Shaoting, this glass of wine grandfather respects you, thank you for accepting the Shen family's apology to the Huo family." ”
"Grandpa, you're serious. Huo Shaoting raised his wine glass, and a glass of wine quickly entered his throat.
Fu Zhixia was a little confused, she pondered the meaning of Shen Wannian's words, it sounded like Huo Shaoting took the initiative to come to the Shen family to seek peace?
Shen Wannian sighed: "Speaking of which, I really miss the old days. Your grandmother and I were both young at the time, and we used to go out to get a drink. If your grandmother is out of breath, I'm going to have a drink with her too. ”
"There will be a day. ”
"......" Fu Zhixia took some vegetables with chopsticks, was thinking about the problem, and suddenly there was more shrimp meat in front of her, she raised her eyes, and met the man's scorching and doting gaze, "I have already picked a shrimp line, you eat." ”
“......”
"It's good to eat more shrimp, you are breastfeeding now, and you need to eat more fishy smell if you don't have enough milk. ”
Feeling the man's gaze looking down at her chest, Fu Zhixia felt that her face suddenly became hot, and she heard Huo Shaoting open her mouth lightly: "Is there not enough milk......?"
The arm was pinched heavily, Huo Shaoting grabbed her hand, she struggled, and followed her.
Shen Wannian and Huo Shaoting chatted again. Fu Zhixia was strange, this man didn't have anything to say on weekdays, how could he now speak to his grandfather's heart in every word, and make his old man so happy?
She ate the food a little depressed, and she didn't know what it tasted in her mouth, and the sound of the two clinking glasses kept in her ears.
"Whispering. Shen Wannian's voice interrupted her contemplation, she looked over, the old man with the wine glass had a red face, she couldn't help frowning, "Grandpa, it's almost over, you eat more food, don't drink the wine." ”
"Grandpa has a good idea! You and Shao Ting have been separated for so long, you need to talk about it. After all, he is Xiao Shanglu's father, and you have refused to let him see him until now, which is unreasonable! Our Shen family is not so unreasonable. ”
"......" Fu Zhixia opened his mouth slightly, Shen Wannian's camp defected too quickly, it didn't seem to be what he said before, right?
"I know all about Xia. ”
"Smack!"
Shen Wannian put the wine glass on the table heavily: "Listen to her, and you have to be reasonable." Xiaoyu, don't mess around, if there is any unhappiness between husband and wife, just make it clear. Now Shao Ting has made it very clear to his grandfather, I think you two are very compatible. ”
"Grandpa, are you drunk?" she looked at Shen Wannian's flushed face, extremely suspicious that this was drunken talk.
Huo Shaoting looked at her and said slowly: "Spit out the truth after drinking." ”
Shen Wannian didn't seem to hear their conversation, and said to himself: "In this world, there are not many men who can do this to you. How old has grandpa lived, he has eaten more salt than you have eaten, and grandpa can see how good a person's character is. That's him, Huo Shaoting, girl, you have a good eye!"
As he spoke, he gave her a thumbs up, Fu Zhixia took a deep breath, ignored the sight next to him, and got up and said, "Grandpa, I'll go and see how their wounds are bandaged." ”
There was a breeze blowing from the window, and Fu Zhixia touched his face with the back of his hand, only to feel the heat of that face.
The night was dark, she walked to the window, let the wind blow her hair away, and gradually cleared her mind, but her heart beat faster.
Huo Shaoting came to find her grandfather, which she never thought of. She thought that between them, it would come to an end with this dead knot.
Yes, this is a dead knot that can never be opened, who can open it? The Huo family and the Shen family have a human life in between, although it is not a direct cause, but it is always a tainted relationship.
Huo Shaoting...... Has the hurdle in my heart been passed?
She turned sideways and looked at the wine table, grandpa and Huo Shaoting were still very happy, although the man was as handsome as before, he seemed to have lost a lot of weight.
She suppressed the ripples in her heart, and when she walked forward, she ran into Mother Lin coming to her.
"Xiao Shanglu probably wants to drink milk, at this point in time every day, he must drink yours, and he refuses to drink it. ”
Mother Lin's voice was a little loud, and intuitively the person looked over, and when she looked over, he had already withdrawn his gaze and continued to chat with his grandfather.
Fu Zhixia followed Mother Lin to the room, and Xiao Shanglu had already cried into a tearful person. Seeing his mother, he opened his eyes wide, flattened his mouth even more aggrievedly, and danced at Fu Zhixia incessantly.
"Mother Lin, you also go to eat, just leave it to me here. ”
Fu Zhixia took the child, and Xiao Shanglu couldn't wait to lean towards her chest in an orderly manner, crying again, as if he was extremely hungry.
"Little glutton!"
Fu Zhixia hugged his body, reached out to unbutton his clothes, and unbuttoned the front button of the nursing bra, and Xiao Shanglu's mouth couldn't wait to come over.
Fu Zhixia's milk is not enough, but one or two meals like this are still fine. Xiao Shang Lu smacked his milk, looked at her with big black eyes contentedly from time to time, and giggled again.
Fu Zhixia also raised the corners of his mouth, the curvature of his side face was soft and warm, and he looked at his son intently.
Huo Shaoting leaned against the door like this, watching this scene quietly. He felt a little softer and fuller inside of him.
The night was quiet, but he also held his breath, such a beautiful and harmonious warmth, he was afraid of being interrupted by the sound of his own breathing.
"Full?" Fu Zhixia teased Xiao Shanglu, the child first giggled for a while, his eyes suddenly fell to the door, and he smiled even more happily. Fu Zhixia looked at him suspiciously, and his head suddenly "ding".
When did this man stand here? How long has he been here? How long has he been watching?
She looked dazed and cute, Huo Shaoting strode towards her, first took Xiao Shanglu, his eyes were slightly on her chest, and he reached out to clasp the button of her nursing bra that was still open.
