A long time ago, Su Ruotong knew a proverb: "There is no good banquet." ”

When she sat with Chu Yuxi and Wei Qian, she understood this truth even more deeply.

At the long oval Western-style dining table, seven people sat in turn, in addition to Su Ruotong, Su Changqing's father and daughter, Chu Yuxi, Wei Qian's husband and wife and their daughter Wei Qingxiao, as well as Wei Yuan and Ning Dandan.

Su Ruotong was extremely surprised, as soon as she saw this combination, she wanted to leave.

If she just had dinner with Chu Yuxi and his wife, then she still had the need to stay, but there were also Wei Yuan and Ning Dandan, which made Su Ruotong very unacceptable.

Some time ago, the people of the Su family were kidnapped and tied up in the basement of the Wei family, although Wei Yuan later cleared the suspicion, at that time Wei Yuan handed over the key to his son's fiancée Cheng Yan, and he was not in Xinhai, so he didn't know anything about it, but would Su Ruotong believe it?

Although it was about to make Su Ruotong and Su Changqing feel better, the place of the reception was not chosen at the Wei family, but for Su Ruotong, it was still unforgivable.

Chu Yuxi probably saw that Su Changqing and Su Ruotong's faces were ugly, so he hurriedly smiled and said: "Tongtong, brother-in-law, hurry up and sit down, we haven't seen each other for many years, this time we have to reminisce about the old days." ”

Su Changqing couldn't wipe his face before, and he didn't think to ask Chu Yuxi if it was just two families meeting, and said unhappily: "Eldest sister, brother-in-law, what do you mean by this, it's okay to catch up on the old days, but why is there anything irrelevant here." ”

Wei Yuan's face was ugly, but he endured it and said stubbornly: "Everyone is a family, my eldest brother and sister-in-law Yuxi have come back for many years, and I will accompany you today." ”

"Whoever is with you is a family. Su Changqing was full of anger: "What? Do you still want to kidnap me today, come on! I want to see what other means you have." ”

Chu Yuxi was extremely embarrassed, stood up, walked up to Su Changqing, and said: "Brother-in-law, don't be angry, you don't want to see the second child, I just told him to go, don't mention others, let's still be a family." ”

Saying that, Chu Yuxi and Wei Qian glanced at Wei Yuan, but Wei Yuan was reluctant and finally went out.

The room was very quiet for a while, Su Ruotong didn't speak from beginning to end, and after Wei Yuan closed the door, Su Ruotong suddenly spoke: "Ning Dandan, what are you still doing here." ”

Ning Dandan's eyes were nostalgic for Wei Qian and Chu Yuxi, obviously hoping that they would help him say a word.

Chu Yuxi showed a wry smile: "Brother-in-law, let's not hide it, it's useful for us to keep this girl." The next thing to ask your brother-in-law about you has a lot to do with her. ”

Su Changqing didn't have a good impression of Ning Dandan, but he didn't have any special hatred and hatred, and because Ning Dandan was young, he always thought in his heart that such a young child was worthy of forgiveness, so he didn't say anything and didn't drive people away.

Chu Yuxi saw that Su Changqing's attitude was a little relaxed, and hurriedly said: "Then sit down, let's eat first, today's meal is specially airlifted from Italy in the morning, and then invited a famous chef from the provincial capital to make it." Brother-in-law, you are an expert, try it and see if the taste is to taste. ”

Today's banquet invited by the Wei family is a standard Western meal, the table is decorated with exquisite and high-grade decorations, flowers, candlesticks, silver tableware, there are a lot of them, and there are waiters in tuxedos who are attentively watching the table next to them.

Su Ruotong tasted two mouthfuls of soup, it was white sauce oxtail soup, and it was done without merit, in the current Western food, it is not bad, maybe it can catch up with the previous Charlie chef, but there is still a lot of distance from Chef Charlie, who has now passed Su Ruotong's **.

The rest of the dishes are similar, and you can see that the chef is attentive, but sometimes, the quality of the finished product, not the amount of heart you use, you can fight over others, and you have to pay attention to ability.

Su Ruotong can eat it, Su Changqing can also eat it, the father and daughter took two bites slightly, and wiped the corners of their mouths with a napkin, indicating that they were full.

I came today to talk about business, and when the Wei family saw that the Su family's father and daughter didn't want to eat, they immediately asked the waiter to close the meal and prepare desserts after the meal, so that they could clean up and talk about serious things.

In the process of eating, Ning Dandan has not been silent, buried in hard work, and even made a lot of noise, basically there is no manners at all, and the tableware is also very unskilled, which makes people want to change her with a pair of chopsticks.

Today's meal is exquisite, but the portion is really not much, and the dishes on each plate are a little bit.

Seeing the waiter coming over to collect the meal, Ning Dandan showed a surprised expression, and asked with hesitation and grievance: "Is there no more? ”

Chu Yuxi's expression froze a little, and he coughed lightly: "Miss Ning, if you haven't eaten enough, let's have another supper in the evening." ”

Who knew that Ning Dandan looked at Chu Yuxi with a sharp expression as if he couldn't understand people's words: "Why can't I?

Chu Yuxi is used to being pampered, where has he been in contact with a person like Ning Dandan, he suddenly felt very embarrassed, endured it twice, and then raised the corners of his mouth: "It's nothing, it's just that there may be no extra food in the kitchen, Miss Ning, or I'll order you a takeout." ”

"I'm going to eat pizza. Ning Dandan replied: "I want the twelve-inch pizza of the sea and land supreme, the kind of double cheese." ”

Chu Yuxi almost twitched the corners of his mouth and agreed to Ning Dandan's request.

finally waited for her to stop, and the dessert here was also served, it was a black cake with ice cream balls, which had been refrigerated in the refrigerator, the taste was fragrant and glutinous, and it melted in the mouth, which was beyond Su Ruotong's expectations.

Chu Yuxi only took a sip, drank a cup of black tea beside him, and said slowly: "Brother-in-law, I have rarely come back over the years, but I should have told you that I have a hard time, Ah Qian is the eldest son and grandson of Changfang, and our life is not as satisfactory as others think." ”

Su Changqing should have really listened to Chu Yuxi's grievances before, and said: "There are some things I can understand. ”

"Thank you for your understanding, brother-in-law. Chu Yuxi sighed: "We returned to China this time because the old man above was seriously ill, and there was not much to do, at most for another three years." Now in the family, there is a competition for the heir of the next patriarch. Although our Ah Qian was designated as the heir twenty years ago, his status has always been threatened by many threats, and this time, if he doesn't do something, he will inevitably be forced away. You also know that a family like ours can be forced to leave, but if the king is defeated and defeated, I am afraid that the family will not even be able to die at that time. ”

Hearing what Chu Yuxi said was terrible, Su Changqing felt some pity and said: "Is it really that serious? It's really not good, you can return to China for development, the domestic situation is very good, and it is not a problem to eat well." ”

Chu Yuxi was stunned, she didn't want to go back to China to eat well, if she wanted to eat well, would she get to this point? This Su Changqing is really too ambitious, no wonder even her neurotic sister can't look down on him.

Su Changqing didn't know the slander in Chu Yuxi's heart, and said very seriously: "Sister, brother-in-law, if you are willing, I can help you after returning to China." Everyone is related to each other, breaking bones and tendons, and putting blood there, it is impossible for me to ignore you. ”

Chu Yuxi felt awkward, she and Su Changqing had no blood relationship, and besides, she didn't want to return to China, so she showed a faint smile: "Thank you brother-in-law, you, you are such a good person! But before we came, there was already a solution, brother-in-law, can you listen to us?"

"Say it. Su Changqing said.

"Ah Qian has been in business for so many years, and it is not that he has no foundation, and there are still many elders in the family who support him. But those people are all antiques, and they feel that Ah Qian and I don't have a man, support us, and don't do them any good for their future, so they have been hesitating, but Ah Qian and I have worked hard for so many years...... Ay...... Until the end of last year, we went to check, and I could, but Ah Qian, he ......" Chu Yuxi wiped the corners of his eyes.

Su Changqing was very surprised, and said to Chu Yuxi: "Sister, brother-in-law, have you seen Chinese medicine for this disease? My brother-in-law is only fifty, so I'll help you inquire about ......."

"It's useless, ask for medicine, kneel to God and worship Buddha, what home remedies, witch medicine, we tried a lot, but none of them worked. In the end, we were really desperate, so we explained this matter to the clan elders, and they discussed it for a long time and decided to give me and Ah Qian another chance. Let us adopt a child of our own family, preferably very close to our blood, and this child will not be affected by his biological parents in the future, and will stand on our side wholeheartedly. ”

Su Changqing still didn't understand what was going on, and looked at Chu Yuxi and his wife suspiciously. What age is it now, and there are still people who have this concept of male inheritance? Moreover, adopting a child from someone else, sooner or later, will be exposed, and then go back to find his biological parents, it is simply a matter of minutes.

Besides, have they considered the feelings of their own daughter Wei Qingxiao, she is just sitting here and eating with everyone.

Thinking so, Su Changqing looked at Wei Qingxiao and found that Wei Qingxiao had been eating dessert with his head down very obediently, and he didn't seem to be affected by this incident at all.

Chu Yuxi had already scolded Su Changqing in her heart at this moment, she had talked about this, why didn't Su Changqing's wooden head get the hang of it.

At this moment, Ning Dandan couldn't sit still and asked, "How long has it been, why hasn't my pizza arrived yet, should you not have placed an order at all, fool me." ”

When she was in school before, Su Ruotong hadn't found out that Ning Dandan was so mean, selfish and disregarding others, and only cared about all the shortcomings of one mouth, but now that she looks at it, she is no different from those village women.

The atmosphere of the conversation at the banquet was suddenly broken by Ning Dandan, Chu Yuxi was very unhappy, and said: "It must have been ordered, why don't you go out and wait." ”

"Go out and wait? Then when you have a baby in the future, I will also ask you to go abroad and wait, are you willing? You want to use me and throw it away, it's not so cheap. Ning Dandan shook his face suddenly, pushed away the chair behind him fiercely, almost shook the plate on the table in front of him to the ground, pointed at Su Ruotong's nose sharply, and screamed: "Why don't you call her alive! Why don't you call Cheng Yansheng! You locked me up like this and let me give birth to a living dead child, just because I was so bullied." Why, why?"
