Chapter 24 The Chu Family Compound
"I followed my mother out to buy things...... I didn't expect to meet you. Sister Zhu, how did you come down from the mountain? Do you have time now? Can you come to my house as a guest?"
Shu Shu hid the black bag in his hand behind him, looked at Brother Lan Tian in front of him and said with a smile, "Are you far away?"
Chu Lantian shook his head and said, "It's not far, my house is very close to the front, the largest house, let's go, I'll take you to my house, my chef makes the best dim sum......"
Shu Shu hesitated for a moment, she turned her head to look at Yan Li, and asked with some expectation, "Brother Yan Li, can we go?"
Yan Li walked forward, looked at Chu Lantian, stretched out his hand like an adult, and said, "Hello, my name is Yan Li." ”
"Hello, my name is Chu Lantian. ”
Yan Li looked at Shu Shu and said with a smile: "Thank you for inviting my sister Shu to your house as a guest, but I don't know if your family welcomes us." ”
Chu Lantian stared at this boy who spoke like an adult, and he held Shu Shu's hand very strongly. He thought that this boy must be Shu Shu's brother.
"Welcome, welcome, how could it not be welcome! My mother's relatives are the best, she likes me to bring my friends home to share what I think is good. You are my friends, and my mother will welcome you very much. Let's go, our house is right in front. ”
Shu Shu secretly tucked the black bag into his cuff as they spoke. She whispered to Little Potato, "Don't move, or be careful that I eat you." Little Potato, who was unconscious, didn't hear a word.
Yan Li knows very well that if you want to integrate into human beings, the least you need to know how to interact with human beings. The boy in front of him doesn't look like a bad guy because he looks good-eyed, even if it's a bad guy, it doesn't matter, he won't spare him easily. He just needs to protect his sister.
"Oh my God?"
A gorgeously dressed woman walked over with a slight smile on her face, and when she saw Shu Shu and Yan Li, her brows furrowed slightly and said, "These two are?"
"Mother, they are my friends, can I take them home to play for a while?"
The woman looked the two of them up and down, and asked with a smile, "Forgive me for taking the liberty of behaps, whose children are you two?
"Mother, even if I didn't mention to you that they are my friends, I want to invite them to our house. Without waiting for Shu Shu to answer, Chu Lantian rushed to answer.
The woman looked at her son with a serious expression, and her originally serious expression became gentle.
"Okay, my mother knows. I'll go back and let the cook prepare the best snacks for your friends. ”
After she finished speaking, she looked at Shu Shu, with a hint of puzzlement in her eyes. The girl in front of her didn't look like an ordinary child, and she had some aura on her body.
There are two kinds of girls with aura, or they are transformed by animals with spirits. Either that's a spiritual human being. But now she only felt her spirituality, but she didn't smell the scent of other animals. Even the most powerful animals can't hide their taste.
But the girl in front of her did it at a young age, and even the smell of people was so unreal. Neither of these people, she didn't want her son to come close. Either way, a woman is not a fuel-efficient lamp. She just wants her children to live an ordinary and happy life.
The sun shone brightly on Shu Shu's smiling face, and as she walked, she looked around, the bustling street market attracted her attention, and she did not notice the woman's cautious gaze.
The eyes of the mourning glass on the side looked at the woman next to her vigilantly thoughtfully.
The Chu family compound is the best and largest mansion in this town. This is also the mayor's home. The dark wooden doors look intimidating. At the door stood a family member with a serious expression and a gray coarse cloth, and when he saw them coming, he immediately greeted them with a smile.
"Madame, young master is back. After speaking, he immediately took the things that the two maids beside his wife were carrying.
One of the older maids smiled and said, "The young master's friend has come to visit, and he has instructed the cooks below to make a few decent snacks." ”
This maid doesn't look like she is a teenager, and she speaks neatly and neatly, and the family next to her is a little older and nods her head, looking a little submissive.
"Okay, I'll go and tell someone to do it. ”
After saying that, the maid walked to the door, and immediately bowed her head and bent down, so that the woman could go first.
Shu Shu saw that she had given up her position, walked in front unceremoniously, and nodded to his wife with a smile. I thought to myself that this woman and maid were so polite.
The mourning glass on the side bowed her head helplessly, and now it was too late to pull her again. He could only bend down and salute and say to the lady beside him: "Madam, my sister is still young and unmoving, please don't blame Madame." ”
Madame saw that the young man beside her was a little older and knew a little bit of rules, so she smiled and nodded with relief. There are two children in this family, and the younger one will always be more spoiled, and it is not uncommon not to know how to be polite.
After entering the Chu family, Shu Shu looked at the strange flowers and plants in the courtyard and the beautifully manicured garden, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Wow! What a beautiful yard, this flower and plant is so well planted." And there was water flowing out of this little mountain. ”
Yan Li immediately walked over and pulled Shu Shu and said softly: "Little sister, this is the Chu family's compound, you better slow down and don't lose your manners." ”
The two maids in front of the lady pursed their lips and chuckled, no one would care so much about a child, but they had a better impression of the brother who was following the rules next to them.
Shu Shu realized something at this time, and followed behind Yan Li a little helplessly. She muttered in a low voice: "There are quite a lot of rules here, it's better to eat outside, if the dim sum here is not delicious, it will be a loss." ”
Yan Li gently touched her arm and said, "It's not bad to come here, you can also see how the children of big families live." ”
Shu Shu didn't understand what Yan Li meant, and nodded helplessly.
Chu Lantian, who was walking in front, stopped and took Shu Shu's hand and said, "Sister Shu Shu, if you come here, I will take you to see something interesting, let me tell you that it is something that I have spent a lot of effort making recently." ”
Yan Li immediately stepped forward, took his hand and said with a somewhat ugly face: "There is a difference between men and women, the young master will lead the way." ”
Shu Shu's brows immediately furrowed, and he said a little unhappily: "Brother Yanli, isn't it also different between men and women who are holding my hand now?"
Yan Li's face turned slightly red and said, "I'm fine, I'm your brother." ”
Chu Lantian said helplessly: "It's okay, Sister Shu, come with me." ”
