Chapter 66: The Family Feast

Seeing Xue Yi's suddenly tense body, Xiao Xuan pursed her lips slightly, and then came to him with small steps, glared at him with some coquettishness, and said angrily: "Brother Xue Yi and that big beauty have a very hot chat." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

was teased by Xiao Xuan like this, Xue Yi's clenched fist really loosened suddenly, and the sudden sense of depression disappeared in an instant.

A smile slowly spread at the corner of his mouth, turning around, Xue Yi wiped his nose innocently, glanced at the door with a charm, and then said leisurely: "Sister Xue is so charming, it's normal for me to talk to her a little more." ”

"Humph!"

Xiao Xuanxiu's nose wrinkled and snorted, but in Xue Yi's eyes, she was delicate, which couldn't help but make him think of it in his heart.

"It's also true, Sister Xue is so beautiful...... Xue Yi wiped the saliva that didn't exist at all, and then a flirtatious smile appeared on his face.

"Huh, you want to step on me?"

Suddenly shrunk his feet, avoiding Xiao Xuan's suddenly stretched out jade feet, Xue Yi pointed his hand and looked at her with a smile.

"Coming back?"

Taking a step back again, and successfully escaping Xiao Xuan's attack again, Xue Yi smiled even more on his face, tilting his head to look at the shy and angry girl.

"Enough, you still refuse to give up even if you can't step on it?"

Xue Yi jumped back agilely, and couldn't help laughing, teasing Xiao Xuan with a smile on his face, the latter bit his red lips lightly, looking extremely cute, this kind of appearance looked in Xue Yi's eyes, but his heart wanted to tease her even more.

"Wow!"

A wolf's howl sounded abruptly in the trial ground, Xue Yi jumped a few steps behind one foot, and then fell to the ground in embarrassment, holding his feet with both hands and rubbing them desperately.

"Didn't Brother Xue Yi say that I couldn't step on it?"

The girl was slim, her slender hand brushed a strand of hair on her cheek, put it in front of her mouth and blew it gently, looking casual, but it looked extremely coquettish.

Seeing Xue Yi's embarrassed appearance, Xiao Xuan let out a "poof", covered her mouth with her hands and laughed with great satisfaction, then turned around, waved her hand at Xue Yi in a dashing manner, and walked towards the door with lotus steps.

"Brother Xue Yi, my father-in-law asked me to tell you, there is a family banquet in the House tonight, you can go early, don't be too late to walk slowly because of sore feet."

Seeing Xiao Xuan turn out of the door and disappear, Xue Yi sighed helplessly, only to find out at this time that his father and uncle didn't know when they had left.

sighed again, his face became helplessly bitter, and while rubbing his feet, he innocently said to himself: "This Nizi, didn't she just ridicule you a few words, do you need to use Yan Lingbo out?" Besides, is that called stepping on, it's clearly kicking. ”

When the last rays of the sun disappeared and night quietly descended on this land, the Xue family's house was not as lively as usual.

A large round table is almost full of people at the moment, Xue Ye, Xue Hao, Xue Shan and other three elders and Xue Hong, the captain of the escort team, as well as Xue Hu, Xiao Xuan, and Xue Lian, who shined in the clan test this time, are all present, although Xue Cheng is in the top four, he is not qualified to participate in this dinner, as for Xue Lian, a friend of Wan Jiaxue, he naturally must be here.

Xue Hu sat quietly alone at this time, his eyes drooped slightly, as if he was thinking, his face was extremely pale, obviously the injuries caused to him by the battle during the day were not small, although he was treated by Xue Xin, he was not able to recover so quickly,

Xue Ye is naturally in the right position, and on the left is the deputy patriarch Xue Hao, such a seat has always been the same, but Xue Shan, who should have been on Xue Ye's right, moved another position to the right this time, leaving the position next to Xue Ye.

At this time, except for the seat next to Xue Ye, the other seats were already full, and the delicious dishes were already served in an orderly manner.

Glancing at the empty position beside him, Xue Ye couldn't help frowning slightly, and it was only a few minutes before the start of the family banquet.

Xiao Xuan seemed quite bored, picking up two chopsticks and tapping them at random, glancing at the door of the House from time to time, with a bit of inexplicable charm.

Fingertips gently tapped on the tabletop, Xue Hao's face looked a little heavy, his brows furrowed, and said, "Big brother, don't wait, this stinky boy, I'll teach him a good lesson later." ”

Hearing this, Xue Ye waved his hand and said, "Eh, it's just a family banquet, what's there to care about, not to mention that it's not time yet." ”

As soon as the words fell, Xue Ye suddenly raised his chin towards the door with a smile and said, "Look, this is not coming." ”

At the door of the house, a young man with hair like fire dragged his tired steps and walked in step by step.

"Yi'er, what's wrong?" Xue Hao saw that Xue Yi seemed to be a little wrong, and hurriedly asked.

Raising his eyes and looking at his father, Xue Yi didn't answer, and walked slowly to the table, his eyes circled around the perimeter of the round table, and found that there didn't seem to be his own seat here.

"Come, sit here." Xue Ye smiled and beckoned to Xue Yi and pointed to the empty spot beside him.

"Huh?" Xue Yi's gaze moved away with Xue Ye's voice, and when he saw that the position the latter was referring to was clearly the position of the Great Elder on weekdays, his expression couldn't help but be stunned, and then he slowly walked towards Xue Ye with a little doubt.

When he came to Xue Ye's side, Xue Yi still stood up a little suspiciously, seeing Xue Yi like this, Xue Ye smiled and stretched out his hand to pull him, and then pressed him to the seat in Xue Shan's somewhat dissatisfied gaze.

"What's wrong with your leg?" When Xue Yi sat down, Xue Ye smiled and pointed to Xue Yi's leg and asked suspiciously.

The slender eyelashes blinked slightly, and Xiao Xuan smiled mischievously, continuing to play with the two chopsticks casually in her hands.

Xue Yi touched the bruised lump in front of his calf, and then swept over Xiao Xuan without a trace, saw her mischievous smile, sighed softly, and said, "Uncle, I just accidentally bumped it." ”

"Bump?" Xue Ye frowned, his eyes turned casually, and when he saw Xiao Xuan with a smug and mischievous face, he guessed a few points.

Xue Hao glanced at Xiao Xuan's expression, and guessed the reason in his heart, and the worried color at the moment suddenly turned into a playful smile.

"It's really bad, you're going to kick the iron plate." Xue Ye quipped, then waved his big hand above the table and picked up the chopsticks, "Come on, come on, everyone is together, pick up the chopsticks." ”

Xue Ye took the lead in putting a piece of meat in his mouth, then nodded again and again, and waved his hand to signal everyone to taste it, with the patriarch taking the lead, the others also moved their chopsticks and picked up those delicious dishes.

The family banquet has been going on in a warm atmosphere, during which Xue Ye and Xue Hao have talked about some inconsequential things, and occasionally made jokes, causing everyone to laugh loudly.

Xiao Xuan and Xue Lian sat together, sometimes talking to each other and laughing softly, but Xue Yi sat beside Xue Ye helplessly, unable to interject Xue Ye's words, and unable to talk to the second daughter opposite, so he was really bored.

For Xue Yi's helpless situation, Xiao Xuan seemed extremely proud, and while laughing and talking with Xue Lian, she occasionally deliberately threw a sympathetic look at Xue Yi, which made Xue Lian cover her mouth and chuckle.

The warm atmosphere continues until the plates of delicious dishes on the table have bottomed out.

Xue Ye picked up a square cloth on the table and wiped his mouth gently, and then the chopsticks were gently put down, making a crisp sound of porcelain colliding with each other, his eyes were raised, and he slowly swept over the faces of everyone at the table, and the smile gradually became retracted in the process.

Then everyone knew that what was the real purpose of the family banquet was next, so they all put down their chopsticks with interest, picked up a square cloth and wiped their mouths, and quietly waited for the patriarch to speak.

I have to say that Xue Ye has been chatting and eating with everyone with a smile on his face, and occasionally stirs up a topic and says a few jokes, which really makes this dinner process extremely warm, even if everyone knows that this family banquet is definitely not as simple as eating, but the process is quite relaxed and enjoyable.

"Well, let's start with two good news about the family." Xue Ye pondered for a moment, and a faint smile resurfaced on his face.

"First of all, the cooperation project we mentioned to the Huo family in Xishan Village before, and they agreed."

Hearing this, everyone just nodded slightly, after all, this was just an ordinary cooperation, and there was not much to celebrate.

Xue Ye didn't care about this reaction, paused slightly, and a dignified look slowly appeared on his face.

"Over there in Los City, the Voss family said they want to cooperate with us in Qingfeng Town to develop some business."

The weight of this sentence was not at the same level as the appetizer before, and there was a shock on the faces of several elders at the moment.

"House Voss? With such a powerful force, how could they want to cooperate with our Xue family? Xue Shan frowned, and was the first to ask.

Xue Ye also frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, but shook his head, and said: "I don't know, this time the people from the Voss family came uninvited, and said that they apologized to us, and said that they wanted to cooperate to develop business, which is really elusive." ”

"We don't seem to have anything to do with the Voss." Xue Hao thought for a while and shook his head.

"House Voss? Los City? Xue Yi, who had been silent beside Xue Ye, frowned slightly, as if searching for some memories.

"Speaking of which, I met an annoying uncle named Worthhorn in Los City before." The memory of this dispute has long been diluted by the beauty of playing with Xiao Xuan at that time, and after such a long time of cultivation, I can't remember it for a while, and I am a little confused at the moment.

"Worthhorn?" Xue Ye read softly, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "Yes, yes, that Vosthor is here to apologize on behalf of his brother Vothor, Yi'er, tell me what's going on." ”

Seeing Xue Ye's nervous appearance, Xue Yi's eyes couldn't help flashing a touch of surprise, and then he pondered for a moment, and said: "At that time, I fell in love with him for the same item, and the price couldn't compete with him, and I didn't want to give up, so I had a little dispute, and finally Sister Xue Chao suddenly appeared and helped me win the item, and it was precisely because of this incident that I owed money." ”

Thinking of the beauty of Los Angeles City, Xiao Xuan couldn't help but touch the dance of the iris butterfly that was carefully hidden in her arms, and a shallow smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

At first, this dance of irises was pinned to her sleeve, but then she was worried that she would accidentally lose it, so she hid it again.

"So that's when you met Miss Snow?" Xue Hao asked.

Xue Yi nodded lightly.

"The Voss family was afraid of the strength of the Wan family, and was worried that the Wan family would be angry with them, so they came to apologize first, and then saw the potential of our Xue family in the clan test, and thought that our Xue family had a deep relationship with the Wan family, so they asked for cooperation, according to this, it is not strange that these things happened." Seeing that Xue Yi nodded, Xue Ye's eyebrows, which had been slightly wrinkled, slowly relaxed, and then began to analyze the whole thing in his mind.

"I'm afraid that the Navos family has ulterior motives." Xue Wen pondered for a moment and spoke.

"That's not true, Vosso must have recognized Miss Xue in the clan test, he thinks we have something to do with the Wan family, how dare he plot against him?" The Third Elder Xue Huodao, who has always been calm.

Thinking about this, it was indeed reasonable, and Xue Wen and Xue Shan also nodded in unison.

"Second brother, what do you think?" Seeing that several elders had no more objections, Xue Ye turned his head and asked Xue Hao.

Xue Hao put his right fist to his mouth, thought for a moment, and then spoke: "The prosperity of Los City is far from being comparable to Qingfeng Town, if we have been staying here, then we can only nest in this small place in this life, we all know the strength of the Voss family, and cooperating with them will undoubtedly make our family take a big step, and the pros and cons are obvious." ”

"They are for the future potential of our Xue family, and we are for their strength as the background for us to expand our forces, and each other's purposes are also very direct." At this point, Xue Hao suddenly paused, lowered his head and muttered for a moment before continuing: "Even if there are hidden thoughts in it that we don't know, for our wishes, this is also worth the risk. ”

As the deputy patriarch of the Xue family, Xue Hao must think more than others, his heart is as calm as him, and he can be absolutely relaxed and casual in his spare time, but it is impossible to be the slightest slack in case of trouble.

"Wish?" This unfamiliar word appeared in the ears of the younger generation of the Xue family for the first time, and they couldn't help but guess in their hearts at the moment, but they didn't ask too much.

After carefully thinking about Xue Hao's every sentence, Xue Ye nodded slowly and said, "Okay, then this matter is decided, and next, it's time to summarize this clan test." ”
