Chapter 184: Bordering on flattery
Now that there are only eight chairs in that table, Xu Tianci Rongyou Lin Song and Li Zheng are seated, even if there are four chairs left free next to them, they can consciously sit at the second table with the identities of Xu Xiaoyu and others.
If the old man came, it would be right for him to sit at the first table with Shen Chenghou's father and his seniority, but seeing that Shen Chenghuai and even the Yu family were going to pull out the chair and sit down, Shen Chenghou's face turned cold, and he hurriedly trotted over to stop it.
Almost as soon as the old man led a group of people to the main table, the lively room fell silent, and although most of the visitors were educated and did not talk to each other, they were all looking intently.
Qixi heard that something was wrong outside in the kitchen and came out to take a look, just when he saw that the old man had not sat down, he accurately recognized Xu Tianci, and took the initiative to say hello, Xu Tianci seemed to be a little stunned, but his identity was there, so he naturally responded with a smile.
People at both ends ran towards this table, Jiang Shi Kan Yu grabbed her before sitting down, ran a few steps and gasped, but he couldn't take a break and hurriedly smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, you see that this table of tea is also finished, and there are many people in front of you, let's go to the kitchen and see if there is anything we can help." ”
Jiang Shi can be regarded as a talker, and those with long eyes can see that Yu Shi is not here to serve tea at all, that is the big lama who wants to sit at the main table to eat, Jiang Shi is giving her a step, if she changes her knowledge, she will naturally follow down the steps.
But obviously you can't expect Yu Shi to do this, and when she saw Jiang Shi pulling her, she was immediately unhappy, so she struggled hard and opened her mouth and said: "What are you pulling me for, I'm not here to serve ......"
"Ahem!" Seeing that Yu was about to say something that would embarrass everyone. Tanabata didn't have time to say anything else. He hurriedly coughed heavily.
Yu Shi was taken aback by this voice. Seeing Qixi looking at her in the eyes of some reason, his heart trembled, and the words stopped, Qixi looked at her angrily and threateningly, but he didn't speak, but turned his head to look directly at the old man.
Since the dispute between Jiang and Yu, the old man sat there with his head down as if he hadn't seen it, but Qixi's cold gaze made him feel a little uncomfortable in his heart, and he had to raise his head.
Tanabata squinted at him. The anger in her heart was almost about to burst out, and she knew that something was wrong when she saw these people suddenly appear when they couldn't say anything. The old man has lived for such a long time, doesn't he know that his eldest daughter-in-law shouldn't be on the table on such an occasion? No, he understands better than anyone else, and he should have even thought that he shouldn't have brought Yu Shi on such a day like this, but not only let her come, but also ignored her unruly behavior, and basically planned to make Sanfang lose face, anyway, Yu's face was long gone.
But she can't do it. Today is a good day for her family, why let these people do bad things. Qixi clenched her fists and looked at the old man, she didn't speak, but she was using her attitude to warn the old man, this is to give him the last chance, if he doesn't open his mouth again, then her family will lose face today, she will make everyone faceless, she believes that the old man can understand.
The old man caught a glimpse of Qixi's fist, he really understood what this girl meant, and grabbed his clothes under the table uncomfortably, he couldn't believe that he was a little afraid of this child, but he was really afraid, this child really did everything.
Slowly looked at the people sitting around, especially the nobles of the Xu and Zhao families, thinking of the purpose of coming today, and then thinking of the consequences of this child if he made trouble, even if the old man was unwilling, he had to cough lightly, and then he opened his mouth and reprimanded unhappily: "Old man, why are you so unruly, what are you doing in front of you?" Hurry up and go to the kitchen to have a look." ”
The people around were relieved when they heard this, and it was just a moment of stagnation just now, but everyone seemed to feel that even the breath inhaled was full of anger, and they all knew that something was going on here, for fear that this happy event would quarrel before it started.
"No, no, no. Shen Chenghou was just about to speak, but Qixi opened his mouth before her father, and when he saw the eyes of the old man and Yu Shi in surprise, Qixi slowly smiled and said, "I have enough people in my family today, how can I use the reason for guests to work." ”
Ignoring the old man's ugly and unbelievable face, he directly stretched out his hand to pull Yu Shi, and secretly said with enthusiasm: "Come and sit down, the banquet will start soon." ”
Seeing that Qixi pulled Yu to the empty table at the door, Lin Qinian and Zhao Yuan were both good at playing round, and they also hurriedly greeted everyone, saying that the food would come up immediately, and the room was lively again.
But no one noticed that Qixi pulled Yu to the door, Yu just wanted to reluctantly sit down at this table to eat, but he didn't want to be dragged out of the door by Qixi suddenly.
This is about to start, and the guests who should have come have also arrived, all waiting for the dishes that the Shen family said to have spent their time on to be served, how could they have time to notice the movements of the two, especially the two of them were very intimate when they looked at the movements.
"What are you doing?" Yu didn't dare to shout loudly at this time, the eyes of her father-in-law and Li Zheng just now made her not dare to continue to make trouble, so she turned her head anxiously to see, the dish was about to be served, didn't this delay her eating?
"I think you really don't have a long memory, you're planning to make trouble today, right?" Qixi shook off her arm, hugged her arms and sneered, "You listen to me, I don't want to make too much trouble if I didn't scold you in the house just now, but if you really want to make trouble, I don't mind making a big fuss, you'd better get out of the way now, otherwise if you step into this door again, I will immediately go to the yamen to complain." ”
"You ......" Yu Shi was startled by the coldness in Qixi eyes, and involuntarily took a step back, but thinking of the delicious food in the house and unwilling, he said, "Who are you scarring, Li Zheng said that as long as I lose money to sweep the ancestral hall, why do you regret it?"
"It's ridiculous, what kind of remorse do I have? You should pay money and apologize, that's the punishment of the village, I forgive you without saying anything. Qixi still has to go back to the kitchen to star, how can I have time to entangle with her, so I let it go, "I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you, I said what I meant, if you don't believe it, you can try, from now on you dare to step into my shop, you don't have to count on anyone, because no one can speak, I will let you sit through the prison." ”
Saying that, she glared at Yu's family, turned around and went into the house to take care of herself, she didn't scare Yu's, anyone would be annoyed again and again, if Yu's really dared to make her unhappy today, she wouldn't be polite anymore.
"You ......" Yu Shi was so angry that her body trembled, and she had the intention to ignore her words, but again and again let her know that this child was not just talking, standing at the door and entering or leaving, and she felt more and more that the fragrance coming from it was tempting.
Entering the house and going straight to the kitchen, I saw the eldest sister standing at the door and was a little stunned, so Qixi waved her hand: "Eldest sister, what are you looking at?
"No, it's all over. Xi'er, this tea is not the taste of our family, there is a distinguished guest today, didn't our family bring good tea?" Yun Rong hurriedly retracted his gaze and asked with a smile.
"Change that good tea, sister, I'll get it. Qixi frowned and looked in the direction that the eldest sister was looking at just now, the old man at the main table was talking to Xu Tianci with a smile on his face, Qixi didn't know how to describe it, he just felt that smile...... It's almost flattering, no wonder her eldest sister hesitated, for fear that she felt ashamed, so she shook her head and told her eldest sister to go to the backyard.
I brought it over in the morning and put it in the east wing, and I forgot to take it when I was busy at the back, and I went straight to the east wing room on Qixi Festival, but I heard a movement behind me, and when I turned around, I saw that Rong You actually followed, and her little guy didn't follow behind, so she said a little strangely: "Young Master Rong, you want to ...... it."
In fact, she wanted to ask if she was going to the toilet, but looking at the expressionless face of the little fat man, she consciously took back the words in the back, she hated in her heart, if she really asked, she would have to turn around and leave like last time.
Obviously, Rong You also guessed what she was going to say, and his face was very exciting for a moment, but he still didn't say anything.
The two looked at each other silently for a while, and Qixi looked at him and still didn't mean to speak at all, so he couldn't help but speak, turned around and pointed to the east wing, and said, "I'm here to get tea." ”
Unexpectedly, Rong You nodded and said, "Hmm." ”
Qixi "poof", I almost laughed, what is this for? She wasn't reporting to him, wouldn't this kid just come to see what she was doing?
"Then I...... Went to get the tea. Seeing that he didn't move, Qixi said to himself, turned his head to open the door, and was still waiting to change the tea.
Rong You glanced at her and turned around, but just after taking a step, he stopped again, and suddenly asked, "How is your lobby brother studying?"
Qixi was stunned for a moment, and then knew that the old man had said something to Xu Tianci and Rong You, and the dispute that had been resolved in front of him made the two people have doubts in their hearts, so they had the heart to ask.
"No matter how well you read, you still have to rely on yourself to study, even if you are like Xu Gongzi, when you read at night, the little girl can only grind, Rong Gongzi said yes?" Qixi thought about it and smiled, "Besides, some of the guests who came to my house are not very familiar with my family, not to mention that they didn't come, I really don't know how he studied." ”
"Hmm. Rong You probably guessed that this would be the answer, but he didn't look surprised, glanced at her, nodded at her and went in.
Qixi watched the door close, and the figure of the little fat man disappeared in front of him, so he smiled and went to get the tea and went back to the kitchen.
I didn't mention it to my family for the time being, and she didn't regret the answer she just answered, and she had this attitude when anyone asked her. (To be continued......)
