Chapter 31: The smell of gunpowder
Although Chen Baozhu's attitude was that she didn't want to say anything, Wang Menglian still broke the casserole and asked to the end, and continued to expand the topic: "Oops... There are no secret recipes that are maintained like this, it is really powerful, I think there must be some reason. ”
Wang Menglian wanted to ask for an explanation for her junior sister, and added something in her words: "Let me guess, this is either Zhensheng you took care of our orb too well, or ah, you took care of it too badly, otherwise how could you feel that the whole person has changed!, right?"
As soon as her words came out, everyone's faces instantly became a little ugly. Chen Qi had already heard his wife's voice, and he saw that Lei Zhensheng's face was already blue at this time, so he hurriedly relieved himself and said: "That must be Zhensheng's good care to make the treasure bead more and more beautiful, you see that your master and wife are getting older and can't speak." ”
"yes, I'm getting older, so I can't see a lot of things clearly. Wang Menglian's face also drooped suddenly, she obviously didn't like Chen Qi's extra move, and followed the topic back to Chen Qi. Originally, she had a lot of dissatisfaction with Chen Qi these days, but now his efforts to solve the siege made her even more disgusted.
Lei Zhensheng saw that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and hurriedly said: "Master, the teacher actually doesn't say that you are old, you see how young you are, and that people believe you when you are 40 years old." ”
Chen Qi saw that Wang Menglian was obviously very unhappy, and he didn't want to stiffen the atmosphere of the good dinner, so he hurriedly said: "Look, I just said it casually, you just take it seriously." You should be getting younger and younger, I'm just kidding, you're still the same as when you were young, you love to have a little temper!"
Wang Menglian knew very well in her heart that it was impossible for Chen Qi not to know some of the things that Lei Zhensheng had done, and seeing that he was still defending Lei Zhensheng like this, she was really angry. However, Chen Qi has come out to play a round, and he has to give him a step down, and Wang Menglian can't say anything more.
I saw Lei Zhensheng smile awkwardly and replied, "Yes... Be... The jewel is getting more and more beautiful, and the master is getting younger and younger. ”
After Lei Zhensheng finished speaking, he gave Chen Baozhu a look, Chen Baozhu saw that Lei Zhensheng was obviously hinting that he was saying good things for him, she was not happy, but in front of so many people, it was difficult to refute her husband's face, especially in front of the dean he cared about the most. So, Chen Baozhu was grateful to his senior sister for relieving his anger, and he had to play a round for Lei Zhensheng on his face: "Hehe... Uncle Chen said that everything is right, Zhensheng is really good to me. ”
Chen Baozhu lowered her head after speaking, and at this time, the nanny Sister Wu poured the red wine that had already woken up, and Chen Qi lost no time in raising the goblet in front of him and said, "You see the light is talking, come, let's go first." ”
After speaking, the other three people also echoed, just breaking the awkward atmosphere.
Chen Baozhu knew that her senior sister Wang Menglian was just talking for her own good, and she was denouncing Lei Zhensheng's presumptuousness for herself, but she also knew very well that on an occasion like today, these words questioning Zhensheng were not suitable to be said again, otherwise, the atmosphere would be extremely embarrassing.
Senior sister understood this heart, Chen Baozhu thought, she looked at her senior sister again, and inadvertently, senior sister drank the red wine in one sip. Thinking that the senior sister was still in a good mood when she just came in, it was because she said what was in her heart that she destroyed the good mood of the senior sister, and Chen Baozhu felt a little guilty.
In fact, Chen Baozhu didn't know that Wang Menglian was not only denouncing Lei Zhensheng, her main purpose was to denounce the high-ranking husband, and she couldn't say it directly, she was depressed in her heart. Then Wang Menglian poured another glass of wine and drank it all.
When she continued to pour the wine, Chen Qi had already discovered his wife's abnormality today, and quickly stopped him and said, "Menglian, how did you do it today? ”
Chen Baozhu looked at her senior sister and was very distressed, so she tried her best to ease the atmosphere and explained: "Hehe... Zhensheng is very good to me, senior sister may have misunderstood, I haven't come to the house for dinner recently, it's really because the school is really busy, this is not just the dean Qin of our graduate school has changed, and our party branch is also very busy. ”
"Oh, look, I guess your wife misunderstood, thinking that you and Zhensheng had an awkward quarrel, so I didn't come to the house to play, hehe... Meng Lian, you see that the two of you are fine, so don't sulk here!" Chen Qi smiled at Wang Menglian and said, "You see how much your master and wife protect you! But it should protect you, when Mr. Shanfeng was alive, he treated Meng Lian like his own daughter." Menglian has always treated you as a sister, if Zhensheng is really bad for you, then you must tell us, although Mr. Shanfeng is not here, but with us, we will make the decision for you. ”
"Hehe... Thank you, Uncle Chen, Zhensheng is very good to me. After Chen Baozhu finished speaking, he glanced at Lei Zhensheng, who was silent and guilty at this time.
"Okay, Zhensheng, do you hear me? You dare to treat the orb badly, your master is the first to not allow you. Okay, do you hear the orb?" Chen Qi emphasized again.
"Uh-huh... When Lei Zhensheng heard himself named, he continued to follow his empty slogan policy, "Hehe... I definitely don't dare to treat the orb badly, don't worry. ”
Wang Menglian knew what to do according to her identity, she was just angry just now, and when she saw Lei Zhensheng's false promise, she was actually very dissatisfied in her heart, but the bad guy can be regarded as a statement, as an elder at the dinner table, she shouldn't be too harsh.
Wang Menglian said with a smile: "It's okay to be good to the jewel, my teacher is such a precious daughter of jewelry, he didn't treat you badly when he was alive, you have to treat the jewel well, otherwise I'm really sorry for his spirit in the sky." ”
"Well, I understand, don't worry. Lei Zhensheng said and suddenly took Chen Baozhu's hand to show his determination. In addition to the behavior on the scene, Lei Zhensheng also thought in his heart, in fact, since he came back yesterday, he had the intention to get close to Chen Baozhu, but Chen Baozhu was reluctant to stay away from him.
Chen Baozhu was also frightened by Lei Zhensheng's sudden move, and instinctively shrank back, but in the end, she was forcibly pulled by Lei Zhensheng, and she showed an embarrassed smile.
"Okay, then your master and I wish you a long marriage. After Wang Menglian finished speaking, she raised her glass again and said.
Chen Qi also followed Wang Menglian and raised his wine glass and said, "Yes, the two of them are right." ”
Lei Zhensheng and Chen Baozhu also hurriedly raised their glasses and dried them in one gulp.
During this meal, the dishes were not moved, and he drank several glasses of wine, Chen Qi saw that his wife's drinking momentum was not right, and after putting down the cup, he hurriedly said: "Come, Baozhu, hurry up and eat vegetables, the roast goose made by your master and wife is very delicious." ”
"Okay... Chen Baozhu also took advantage of Dean Chen's politeness to hurry up and eat the dishes, "Well, this roast goose is really delicious." ”
"Hehe... Eat more if it's delicious. Wang Menglian finally smiled, and also took a piece of roast goose and tasted it.
Lei Zhensheng really sweated at this meal, Wang Menglian finally stopped talking about her feelings, this would be a sigh of relief, and slowly picked up the chopsticks to eat.
