Chapter 654: When to Drink Your Favorite Wine
When it was close to noon, most of the Cao family who came to congratulate Xu Li on his birthday had already arrived.
In addition to the Cao family, there were many other people who came to celebrate his birthday, but most of them said their blessings to Xu Li, put down the gifts and left, except for Jin Meng's father Jin Zhonghai. He chatted with Mr. Cao Zhongyi for a while.
After chatting with Cao Zhongyi for a while, Cao Jianguo was also called in, but not Cao Yue.
"Mom, what will they talk about?" Cao Yue asked Nie Dan, who was busy greeting guests, curiously.
"It must have something to do with you," Nie Dan whispered back.
Seeing Zheng Han on the side, Cao Yue still couldn't help but didn't ask anything more.
At lunch, Jin Zhonghai stayed in the old house to eat, Jin Meng sat beside her, the father and daughter and Li Xiaoqin together, accompanied Cao Zhongyi, Xu Li and his wife to sit at the same table, Cao Jianguo, Cao Jianmin and Cao Ruonan sat at the same table.
This was Cao Zhongyi's arrangement, Jin Meng and Li Xiaoqin, who originally wanted to sit with Cao Yue, had to obey obediently.
No one came to pester himself, and Cao Yue breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the butterfly, who wanders outside the Cao family in a very low-key manner and never takes the initiative to talk to people, still makes him feel uncomfortable with a cold glance from time to time. Fortunately, Nie Qing was there, and Cao Yue used his aunt as a shield.
This woman spoke as if she didn't have the strength, she kept talking, everyone's attention was attracted by her, and she sat beside her with Zheng Han, and the power of butterfly hostility seemed to be a little less.
Zheng Han's performance was still quite good, he was generous, and greeted all the Cao family members without any formality and answered their questions.
In addition, Nie Qing and Cao Zhi, who were sitting on the side, praised her from time to time, and everyone's impression of her was very good.
Many juniors of about the same age praised Zheng Han, which made Zheng Han complacent, but the butterfly eyes on the side became more and more cold.
Fortunately, after Ding Lan sat next to the butterfly, the butterfly finally did not look like a cold bystander, but whispered to Ding Lan.
After eating lunch, Jin Zhonghai said goodbye and left, and before leaving, he came to talk to Cao Yue, but he only asked about some ordinary things, including Cao Yue's situation at school and filming TV series. At the end, he patted Cao Yue on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I have time to come to the house for dinner, your aunt has always remembered you, and Xiaomeng often misses you, anyway, there is nothing to do during the summer vacation." ”
Cao Yue had to agree, "Okay, uncle, when will I come to the door to eat and drink." ”
When Jin Zhonghai was talking to Cao Yue, Jin Meng also ran over, and when she heard Cao Yue agree to her father's invitation, she immediately followed and said: "Brother Xiaoyue, you have to talk and count." ”
"When do I stop talking and don't count?" Cao Yue rolled his eyes at Jin Meng.
"You often don't count, and you haven't done a lot of things you promised me," Jin Meng looked very aggrieved.
Kim Zhonghai smiled meaningfully on the side.
After Jin Zhonghai left, Jin Meng stuck to Cao Yue and asked Cao Yue to play with her and Li Xiaoqin, but Cao Yue still sent them to find someone else to play on the grounds that they still had to receive guests in the afternoon.
"I can probably guess what Jin Meng's father said to your grandfather and father," Zheng Han whispered to Cao Yue when no one was paying attention.
"Whatever they say," Cao Yue smiled indifferently, and reached out to hug Zheng Han in public.
Seeing many people's eyes, Zheng Han suddenly blushed, but his heart became very happy, and the little depression that had just started was completely gone.
At dinner, all the Cao family members who should have come have arrived.
In addition to the Cao family, the two outsiders who participated in Xu Li's birthday banquet were Li Xiaoqin and Jin Meng.
Zheng Han also finally understood the familiarity of these two women with the Cao family, she did not regard these two women as the biggest threat emotionally before, but from today on, she regarded them as the biggest threat.
During the dinner, Cao Yue and Zheng Han played her favorite Spring River Flower Moon Night, as well as classical songs such as Fishing Boat Singing Night and General Order, with the piano and seer, for Xu Li.
Many people are amazed when they first know that "Piano Chorus" is like this.
Cao Zhongyi and Xu Li were also very surprised, and Xu Li was even more happy.
When Cao Yue pulled Zheng Han forward and kowtowed and blessed Xu Lidao, she also personally took Zheng Han's hand and praised Zheng Han in front of everyone.
Xu Li's public praise made Zheng Han very happy, but Jin Meng, Li Xiaoqin, and Butterfly had cold faces, they were very jealous, but they couldn't compare with Zheng Han in this talent, so they could only "swallow their anger". Of course, on this occasion, they don't dare to care.
The birthday feast was lively and lasted for a long time, not ending until nine o'clock in the evening, and finally eating cake.
To Zheng Han's surprise, Xu Li actually cut a cake for her personally, and only the two grandsons Cao Yue and Cao Zhi enjoyed this treatment, as well as Nie Dan and Wang Haiying's two daughters-in-law.
This made Zheng Hanle happy, she knew that this was Xu Li using this kind of small thing to convey a special hint to everyone.
"Xiao Yue, Hanhan, grandma has a special opinion of you," Nie Dan also explained the situation to Cao Yue and Zheng Han, "You have to work hard to please grandma in the future, with her to help you, there are many things you don't need to worry about." ”
Nie Dan was finally able to marry into the Cao family, in fact, it also has a very important relationship with Xu Li's support.
When Cao Jianguo led Nie Dan into the door for the first time, Cao Zhongyi was furious, but Xu Li liked Nie Dan very much.
After Nie Dan understood this situation, he tried his best to curry favor with Xu Li, and through Xu Li, Cao Zhongyi finally changed his attitude, and she was able to marry into the Cao family and get the full support of the Cao family. Otherwise, even if her mother and son are expensive and she can finally marry into a wealthy family, she will not have her current status.
"Mom, we get it," Cao Yue agreed with a grin.
"Thank you Aunt Nie for your advice," Zheng Han also thanked with a red face.
"After a while, it's time for you to change your tune," Nie Dan quipped Zheng Han.
Zheng Han blushed even more, but she couldn't say those two words.
After the dinner, Cao Zhongyi was tired and went back to his room to sleep, and Xu Li went back to sleep after spending some more time with everyone.
These heirs of the Cao family did not disperse immediately, but gathered together to continue chatting.
Although the Cao family is very united, it is rare for so many people to get together, except for the New Year, and there is only a chance on this kind of festive day. Some people haven't seen each other since the New Year, so naturally they have a lot to say.
Cao Yue and Cao Zhi, the most respected fourth-generation men of the Cao family, also surrounded a lot of people, and everyone asked them about things.
asked Cao Yue the most questions, of course, everyone is interested in the situation of Cao Yue's current TV series, and some people are very curious about how Cao Yue can act on TV.
"Brother Xiaoyue, sister-in-law Zheng Han, when can I drink your wine?" A little girl named Cao Hanzhen picked an opportunity and asked Cao Yue and Zheng Han curiously.
A "Zheng Han's sister-in-law" made Zheng Han blush again.
Seeing Zheng Han's shyness, many people laughed, but everyone wanted to know how they would answer.
