116 Jiang family
Happy Tanabata to all my relatives!!
When Sally had finished cooking, and Merry returned, he was joined by a tall young man, almost carved out of the same mold as William, and Merry and Alice were more like Sally.
Seeing Murong Xianxian, Mai Rui was very surprised, obviously he, like Alice, was happy to keep in touch with Murong Xianxian, after all, for the dark race, a strong man who could destroy the demon hunting trio was still very worthy of contact.
"Big brother, this is Miss Murong, and that one is Miss Jiang Caijing. β
Alice introduced her eldest brother again: "I am my eldest brother Edmond. "Hello. Unlike the rest of the family, Edmund didn't seem to like these two guests very much, so he hurriedly said hello and went upstairs to change clothes, and Mai Rui made an apologetic smile to Murong Xianxian and hurriedly ran upstairs to change clothes.
"I'm sorry, Murong. β
An apologetic smile appeared on Elles' face: "Edmond is not usually like this, probably he is not in a good mood today." β
"It doesn't matter. Murong smiled tolerantly. She and Jiang Caijing are just guests, not blind dates, there is no need for everyone to like them, as long as they don't have a bad attitude, everyone can get off the stage, after all, don't look at the face of the monk and see the face of the Buddha.
Lunch was undoubtedly hearty, with a roast suckling pig in the middle of the table, veal, cheese bread, caviar, potatoes and vegetable salad.
A large family sat at the table, and there was an American bustle, and Alice's parents were very enthusiastic, piling up the best dishes on the plates in front of them.
"Sally's roasting suckling pig skills are a must. β
"This caviar is a famous brand in France, and it is very nutritious. β
William and Sally's enthusiasm made the two guests feel a little flattered, Jiang Caijing couldn't eat those things at all, and as a result, most of them were accepted by Murong Xianxian, and even Edmund, who was a little hostile to their arrival, looked at her with some surprise, not knowing how this slender body could hold so much food.
"Edmund, it's rude to look at a guest like that!" Probably because he watched too often or something, but Sally couldn't help but glare at her son.
"There is no nasal tie. β
Murong Xianxian didn't think it was wrong, but asked Sally a little strangely: "Why don't you eat suckling pork?"
Sally shrugged, "Poor Sally can only watch it drool because the doctor won't let me eat it." β
"Too bad, can I ask what kind of disease you have?" asked Murong Xian Xian.
"Slim. β
Jiang Caijing called her softly with some disgust, probably feeling a little abrupt.
"It's okay. β
Sally laughed: "We don't have any taboos, it's just a heart attack, a little strict." After the meal, the guests and the host were happy, and the two politely declined Alice's parents' invitation to dinner, and left with Alice's farewell. When she walked out of the courtyard for a distance, Alice's home had disappeared around the corner of the street, Murong Xian gently asked Jiang Caijing to go first, she wanted to have something to say to Alice.
"I'm sorry, we should have left immediately," Alice bowed her head.
"Life is your own, and there's nothing to be sorry about for me. β
Murong Xian frowned slightly: "But you should have thought that after the church lost the news of the emperor's demon hunting team, it would definitely send someone to investigate, and you might not be able to hide."
Alice was silent for a long time before she whispered: "Merry and I are already handling the matter of studying abroad, but it will take a little time, and we also want to take advantage of this time to spend a few more days with our mother." "The son wants to raise but can't!
Looking at Alice's gloomy expression, Murong Xianxian thought of her mother, and couldn't help but feel soft in her heart, "Alice, if something happens to you, I believe it will be a heavy blow to Sally, and you can't judge the direction of things according to your own wishful thinking." She hesitated for a moment and said, "I still have about half a month to stay here, if you have anything to do, just come to me, but you can do it yourself in the future." "Thank you!"
Alice knew how heavy this promise was, and she bowed respectfully to Murong Xianxian.
Murong Xianxian waved her hand and chased after Jiang Caijing, she was able to take care of things for herself again, but she felt that if she could stay by her mother's side for a moment longer, if she could compensate her mother for the last part of her life, maybe she would have fewer regrets.
"Caijing, Xianxian, where have you been?γ,
As soon as the two entered the courtyard, Jiang Shangsong ran over.
"Didn't you call SΓΉ home?"
Jiang Caijing said: "A new friend of Xian Xian invited her to her home for lunch, so she came back. "You're really capable, and you've made new friends just a few days after you arrived. Jiang Shang Songchong Murong Xian said.
"Good character, I can't help it, people like you can't understand Murong Xian said lightly.
"I'm like this, Xian Xian, you can make it clear, what kind of person am I?" Jiang Shangsong reacted and asked hatefully.
"How can you ask me this?" Murong Xianxian looked at him in surprise: "You don't know it yourself, maybe you're too unconfident, right?" Jiang Caijing next to him held his waist and smiled.
"Count you ruthless!"
Jiang Shangsong's face was full of black lines: "Uncle, they are all here, they are all in the living room, you can go and see them." β
With that, turn around and leave.
"Hey, second cousin, what about Xiaoxiao?"
Hearing that many people came, Murong Xianxian was worried that Xiaoxiao would not be able to stand these noises.
Jiang Shangsong said: "Grandma is suspicious of a lot of people, and she is not in good spirits, so she took Xiaoxiao to her house to rest... How do I think my grandmother's spirit is better than before the patient?"
"Don't talk nonsense, let Daddy listen to you. Jiang Caijing scolded.
"I'm telling the truth, I don't believe you're going to see it. ,, Jiang Shangsong muttered.
In front of the building, when a few children saw them coming, they immediately dispersed, and seeing Murong Xianxian's inquiring gaze, Jiang Caijing smiled and said: "Those little hairy heads are the little grandsons of the eldest uncle and the second uncle's family, don't pay attention to them." However," she hesitated for a moment and said, "There may be a few people who are not very friendly to you, for the sake of your grandparents, don't care." "Don't worry, I'm not that careful. Murong Xianxian smiled faintly, her ten fingers were not ordinary, why did she ask everyone to accept her?
In the final analysis, she came here to visit her grandmother and grandfather, just to do her best for her mother, not to ask for anything.
Still outside the door, he heard bursts of laughter from inside, Jiang Shangsong stepped forward and knocked on the door, and the servant standing by the door inside hurriedly opened the door, and when the three of them came in, he quickly closed the door.
Just after the three of them entered the house, the sound of talking in the living room gradually disappeared, the room became quiet, and everyone's eyes shifted to Murong Xianxian's body, which was really uncomfortable.
"This child is the daughter of the little sister, isn't it?" asked a rather dignified-looking man. He was about fifty years old, his face was extremely similar to Jiang Haitian, and the other middle-aged man beside him also had a face that was very similar to the two, and he was looking at Murong Xianxian with great interest.
"Yes, big brother. β
Jiang Haitian bowed slightly and introduced, "Xianxian, come here, this is the uncle, this is the aunt, this is the second uncle, the second aunt, this is your aunt, the aunt ......"
There are a lot of people, and this is a lot more wordy to introduce.
The eldest aunt's name is An Xiufen, sons Jiang Xiaohao (wife Lu Xiushou), Jiang Xiaojie (wife Wei Hong), daughter Jiang Xiaoxia (husband Sun Shaoping): second aunt Wei Muxue, son Jiang Shaoxiong (wife Zhou Xiuru), daughter Jiang Yaqin (husband Wei Wenxiang), Jiang Yashi (unmarried): Uncle Fang Shaowu, son is Fang Johnny, who has not come back from going out to play, daughter Fang Wei, what surprised Mengmeng a little is that this Fang Shaowu and Fang Yu are both martial artists, and Fang Wei's cultivation is really stronger than her father.
This is just to introduce the first and second generations, fortunately, those juniors of the third generation are playing outside, and they are not in a hurry to introduce them for a while, but Murong Xianxian keenly found that Fang Yu seemed to have some inexplicable hostility towards herself, although she didn't know what it was for, she didn't care too much, she just sat there and answered these elders' questions seriously.
"Poor boy, I have suffered a lot all these years. Jiang Xiufu said distressedly: "It's okay this time, I'll live here in the future, if you need anything, just speak, my aunt will definitely help you do it." By the way, you haven't been around in Los Angeles yet, have you? I'll let Johnny walk around with you. "It's okay, Johnny doesn't have time, Komatsu can also accompany Xian Xian, he is also very familiar with this Los Angeles. Without waiting for Murong Xianxian to reply, Xun Meiling next to her spoke.
Jiang Xiufu's face changed slightly, and just as she was about to speak, Murong Xianxian hurriedly picked up: "I'm afraid not, when grandpa finishes his birthday, I will take Xiaoxiao to see a doctor, and I have to go back to class, the time is very tight, I have to go back to class, it is impossible to play, I can only wait later."
If this sister-in-law fights, it will be a big trouble, although Murong Xianxian can't grasp what they are thinking for a while, but there is no doubt that the crux of the problem is on herself, the old man is about to die, if there is a gap for this kind of thing, it is not worth it.
The words of the two people were not loud, but everyone heard them, the women looked at each other, and the men frowned slightly, at this moment, Jiang Heping, who was sitting in the top position, coughed dryly, and said in a deep voice: "Xian Xian, you come to the study with me." With that, he got up and left.
Murong Xianxian was immediately relieved, she nodded apologetically to the elders around her, got up and followed Jiang Heping into the study.
So a few more pairs of eyes looked into the study as if inquiring.
