40 Dinner (5) Mutation
It turned out that Zhai Xu looked a little more like his mother.
Le Xiaoxiao couldn't help but compare Zhai Xu and his father and came to such a conclusion. But to be more precise, Zhai Xu's silhouette is more like his mother, while his eyebrows and eyes are inherited from the combination of his parents. Therefore, compared to Zhai's father's dignified and dignified appearance, although Zhai Xu is still quite tough in appearance, he will look more handsome.
Father Zhai is obviously a person whose character is completely expressed in his appearance, and he does not smile and say nothing. He Le Xiaoxiao didn't say many words, not too polite, but sincere enough. Zhai's mother is much softer, soft-spoken, and decent, but also more elusive. Just like Le Xiaoxiao felt that she was dead, but Zhai Xu said that he should like her a lot.
After Le Xiaoxiao had done enough psychological construction, the meeting with Zhai Xu's parents was unexpectedly short. There were so many people around that in addition to the opening greetings, Zhai's mother sent the two of them away with only one sentence: "Let's go back to the old house to see your grandfather on the weekend, Zhai Xu, you also come over and bring Xiaoxiao." ”
After Zhai Xu got the order, he was happy to avoid the center of the crowd, and he hid to the side with Le Xiaoxiao in his arms.
"Well, I said my mom likes you." Zhai Xu finally excused himself from the last person who followed, and freed his hand and whispered to Le Xiaoxiao, "This is a direct invitation for you to go back to the old mansion." ”
Le Xiaoxiao has been numbed by a series of situations, first to see her parents, and then to her ex-girlfriend who is suspected of being a childhood sweetheart, what is the situation now? Go back to the old mansion directly to see the old man of the Zhai family? Isn't this a bit fast?
The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, Le Xiaoxiao can only comfort herself with this sentence now, didn't Zhai's mother who saw her in the toilet also have a good impression of herself, anyway, her luck can't be worse.
"The old mansion is the one you mentioned earlier? Going to the room every day after school? Le Xiaoxiao suddenly found that she still knew too little about Zhai Xu today, and this room seemed to be friends who were quite familiar with Zhai Xu, and she only knew Xue Ting and a few of them. In fact, as Chen Yaxin said, she is a person from another circle, and Le Xiaoxiao feels that she is incompatible with today's dinner.
"yes." Zhai Xu nodded in response, "My grandfather has been living there for so many years. Although my parents, uncle's family, and my uncle's family have all moved away, as long as they are in the city during the New Year, everyone will still go back. Well, you will also come to celebrate the New Year in the future. ”
Le Xiaoxiao glanced at Zhai Xu, ignoring the sentence he added at the end, and was too lazy to bother with a capital on his face. However, the previous paragraph still aroused Le Xiaoxiao's curiosity and asked, "Do you still have an uncle and a little uncle?" ”
"Yes, but none of them are in this city, and they don't necessarily come back once a year and a half." Zhai Xu said as he walked to the dining table with Le Xiaoxiao in his arms, handed her a plate, and then began to put food on the plate in the same way.
Most of the crowd was concentrated in the center of the venue, so the buffet counter was particularly deserted, with rows of exquisite snacks and desserts arranged like samples in advertising windows. Le Xiaoxiao has a sense of freshness after the first snow, stepping on the snow alone, looking at the missing corner of every plate, and suddenly feeling very happy. Stuffed Zhai Xu with a plate, Le Xiaoxiao began to pile desserts inside, all kinds of mousse cakes, fruit tarts, and macarons, which were surrounded by Le Xiaoxiao into a beautiful circle.
"Aren't you afraid of gaining weight, don't waste if you can't eat?" Zhai Xu looked at a large plate of desserts in his hand and smiled helplessly.
Le Xiaoxiao struggled between the truffle chocolate and the chocolate lava cake in front of her, and finally happily decided to take a piece of each of them. It is said that chocolate can make people feel happy, Le Xiaoxiao thought about putting two kinds of chocolate in the center of the plate, and smiled at Zhai Xu: "Isn't it you?" ”
Zhai Xu finally took two large plates of snacks and desserts, and went to a corner of the banquet hall with Le Xiaoxiao, and happily ate dinner head to head.
"Why are you suddenly interested in my home? Don't tell me you think it's fun. Then I can find you a similar opportunity to eat and drink every day. After Zhai Xu finished speaking, he pinched a piece of ham and put it in his mouth, and snorted with enjoyment, "Iberian black pig ham that really eats acorns, you eat ham, right?" ”
"Eat, I like Spanish food." Le Xiaoxiao also got started, and carefully pinched a thin slice of ham with two fingers, the lean meat was crimson and firm, the fat was white and tender and transparent, and the entrance was really delicious. "Delicious! Take a few more slices in a moment! Well...... No, I suddenly felt that I knew very little about you. ”
Zhai Xu took another piece of Tapas that I don't know what it is, but it looks brightly colored, stuffed it directly into Le Xiaoxiao's mouth, licked his fingers again, and said with a smile: "You're finally a little interested in me, I'm so moved." I know all I want to know. ”
"Hmm......" Le Xiaoxiao began to resent why people only have one mouth, how to speak when they are filled with food. The color is beautiful and the taste is wonderful, Le Xiaoxiao hurriedly picked up the wine glass and took a big sip, before he reluctantly sent the food in his mouth down, grinning and complaining: "Can you taste it first and then stuff it for me, this is so unpalatable, it smells of rotten wood and rust." ”
"Well, it's just that you look weird and let you taste it first." Zhai Xu put on a charming smile, so angry that Le Xiaoxiao had the urge to push that handsome face aside.
"So, is your relationship with your family good? I think Auntie would like to hear someone talk about you. Le Xiaoxiao threw a piece of chocolate into her mouth, barely suppressing the strange smell of rotten wood. Wandering around the plate, he picked out the most weird-looking dark green cake, broke off a piece and stuffed it into Zhai Xu's mouth.
"Evil, what kind of thing is this, who took it?" Zhai Xu directly took out the napkin and spit out the cake in his mouth, took another sip of champagne and swallowed it, before he continued, "I didn't tell you before, it's not good or bad, in fact, it's just not very familiar." I didn't tell you last time, my parents haven't been home since I can remember. When I was a child, I followed my grandfather, and when I was older, I went around eating around, the uncle's family, the little uncle's family, later the Xue family, the Zhao family, the Chen family, and then the Li brother's family, and Aunt Wang's family. Oh, Brother Li is our old man's driver, you have seen it, his meatloaf is delicious, and Brother Li took me to the stewed cooking shop last time. So I grew up eating 100 family meals. ”
Le Xiaoxiao stretched out her tongue and carefully licked the dark green weird cake, tasted the taste, and then threw it aside in disgust: "I didn't take it, this thing doesn't look like my aesthetics." Then you are now full-time at Mu Rui, don't you have to worry about your business? ”
"Not yet, I can probably still do the industry I like for a few years. My family has a little uncle in China, my dad abroad, and an old man at home, so I don't think I need to worry about it for a while. Lord Zhai Xu has a large number of people who no longer compete with Le Xiaoxiao whose food is more unpalatable, and beckoned the waiter to ask for two glasses of red wine, "Rest assured?" You'll be able to hang out for a few more years under my wise leadership. ”
"Cut, who scares about you." When Le Xiaoxiao heard this, she didn't know why she was a little relieved. If Zhai Xu didn't have to deal with this complicated circle in a few years, then his life would be better.
Oh, what's going on with me, I haven't skimmed the eight characters yet, why did I start looking forward to the days after I and Zhai Xu were together.
Zhai Xu handed a glass of red wine to Le Xiaoxiao, and said with a smile: "Why don't you hurry up and hug my thigh?" Do you want to get a promotion and a raise, huh? ”
Without waiting for Le Xiaoxiao to answer, Zhai Xu's mobile phone suddenly vibrated wildly in his trouser pocket. Zhai Xu glanced at the number, Fang Cai's face was still relaxed and smiling, and he instantly became gloomy, frowned, and connected the phone: "Hello Dr. Han, I'm Zhai Xu." ”
Le Xiaoxiao watched Zhai Xu gesture to herself, and hurriedly nodded and waved his hand to let him go away to answer the phone. Zhai Xu covered his ears with one hand and walked to the corner of the wall while listening to the person on the other side of the phone. After a few words, Zhai Xu's face obviously showed a melancholy color.
Zhai Xu's phone was very short, and he hung up in less than two minutes. The pace of walking back was a little more hurried, and Zhai Xu didn't explain much before pulling Le Xiaoxiao and walking towards the center of the banquet hall, and at the same time called and dialed a number. The phone was connected almost instantly, and Zhai Xu quickly said a word after hearing the feed over there and hung up the phone: "Brother Li, drive the car to the door." The old man was sick and had an acute rash, and my parents and I came out immediately. ”
"Don't tell anyone just yet." Zhai Xu followed the figure of his parents, walked over quickly, and said to Le Xiaoxiao.
"I know, you go to see the old man first, leave me alone." Le Xiaoxiao said obediently.
Zhai Xu looked sideways at Le Xiaoxiao's face with the same nervous expression, eased down a little, took two deep breaths, and said: "My family is estimated to be chaotic, you let Xue Ting go to Xue Ting later, and after I get in the car, I will call Xue Ting and ask her to send you back." ”
"Don't worry. It's okay for me to be such an adult. I will definitely follow Xue Ting for a while. Le Xiaoxiao assured.
Hurriedly parting the crowd, Zhai Xu leaned on his father's ear and said a few words. Father Zhai's expression also changed, and he quickly explained to the people around him, then took Zhai's mother's hand and left in a hurry with Zhai Xu.
I hope everything goes well, and I hope the old man is okay.
Le Xiaoxiao looked at the back of Zhai Xu's family leaving, and prayed silently in her heart. Although I have never met the old man of the Zhai family, I have heard the name of the old man a few times, and I always feel inexplicably kind. Now that medicine is so developed, it should be fine. Le Xiaoxiao was firm in her confidence, she was too hurried to say anything, and now seeing Zhai Xu's figure disappearing at the door, Le Xiaoxiao took out her mobile phone from her handbag and sent a message to Zhai Xu.
Is this considered a disadvantage?
After sending the message, Le Xiaoxiao couldn't help but think of it while looking for the trace of Xue Ting. It seems that as soon as he gets in a relationship with Zhai Xu, he will always fall into an embarrassing or tragic situation.
Is this the treatment of the protagonist?
