20. Contradictions

When Lu Zhengxing's father and daughter arrived at Zhengxin Courtyard, Qin Wanxiao was instructing Mama Zhang, who was married, to go to the outer study to call the father and daughter over for dinner. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Qin Wanxiao is the housewife of the Dingguo Mansion, and the slightest disturbance in the entire Dingguo Mansion can't escape her eyes. For example, Lu Chenxi took someone to the study in the outer courtyard to find Grandpa Guo in the afternoon, when Lu Chenxi first arrived at the outer study, Qin Wanxiao already knew about it.

Seeing the father and daughter walking in the door with a smile and a smile, a faint moving smile appeared on Qin Wanxiao's beautiful face. Lu Zhengxing just looked up, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw it.

"Mama Zhang, quickly ask someone to fetch water for Grandpa Guo and Zhao'er to clean their faces." Qin Wanxiao glared at Lu Zhengxing lightly, "Then ask the kitchen to bring up the Magnolia ham and chicken soup that has been stewed all afternoon, Zhao'er likes to drink that the most." ā€

Mama Zhang replied with a smile on her face, and was ready to go out to command.

Seeing this, Lu Zhengxing hurriedly said: "Ask the kitchen to add a few more dishes, and the three brothers will come over later." ā€

Qin Wanxiao was stunned for a moment, the smile on her face became even stronger, and she hurriedly called Mama Zhang: "Ask the kitchen to make more Hongzi chicken shredded cucumbers, a dried Lianfu sea cucumber, a sweet and sour fish roll, a chicken fat mushroom, a mountain delicacies spiny dragon sprouts, and a soup, well, just Longjing Zhusun." Let them hurry up ......"

Mama Zhang nodded again and again, and kept heading towards the kitchen.

The little maid with the organic spirit came up with hot tea, and Lu Zhengxing and Lu Chenxi washed their hands and cleaned their faces after sitting on the big chairs with yellow flowers and pears on both sides, and took the hot tea and tasted it.

None of the three people in the room spoke, and a faint warm atmosphere lingered.

Qin Wanxiao was about to open her mouth to ask what the father and daughter had talked about in the study outside the afternoon, and it took this long time to hear a voice outside the door: "The slave has seen the son, the third young master, and the fourth young master." ā€œ

Then the curtain of the door was lifted, and the three brothers walked in.

Lu Chenxi raised his eyes and saw that his third brother and fourth brother were squeezing their eyebrows at him. Lu Chenxi also blinked mischievously.

"Okay, don't squeeze your eyebrows here, take these two skin monkeys to wash them, and we'll start eating soon." Qin Wanxiao's angry voice sounded.

Lu Zhi should be, but he couldn't help but smile on his lips.

After the three brothers washed up, they drank another cup of tea, and Mama Zhang took the little maid in the kitchen to serve the food.

When the dishes were ready, Lu Han smiled and said: "It's still the best mother, you see that these are all the dishes we love to eat." ā€

Qin Wanxiao took Lu Zhengxing's soup bowl and gave him a bowl of Longjing Zhusun soup, "It's good to know." When you and Yu'er can be as sensible as your eldest brother, even if your mother treats you better, it's no problem. ā€

Lu Han and Lu Yu glanced at each other, took the soup that Mama Zhang gave them and drank it, and stopped talking.

"Flutter" Lu Chenxi couldn't hold back and laughed.

Lu Zhi glanced at his sister helplessly, and put a chopstick of Fuzi melon roasted tenderloin into her bowl, "Zhao'er, eat without saying a word." Eat quickly. ā€

"Oh," Lu Chenxi was stupid, and his pitiful eyes fell on his father.

Lu Zhengxing couldn't stand his daughter's eyes the most, and pretended to cough, "We don't have to be so serious when we eat as a family." ā€

Qin Wanxiao glanced at the father and daughter helplessly, and then looked at the eldest son who was also helpless, and the third son and fourth son who were full of smiles on their faces, and suddenly didn't know what to say.

It's just that this dinner is not destined to be peaceful.

While the family was eating happily, one of the first-class maids beside Qin Wanxiao, Rue Xiang, walked in with a bad face.

Seeing Ruxiang's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Qin Wanxiao was puzzled: "Ruxiang, what's wrong?" ā€œ

"Madam, Eldest Princess Huirong has come here with the Sixth Young Master and the Eighth Young Master." Rue's voice was low.

The smile on Qin Wanxiao's face froze suddenly.

The others also lost their smiling faces, stopped the chopsticks in their hands, and the room was so quiet that it was audible to drop pins.

In the middle of the ring, Qin Wanxiao put a noble smile on her face again, and instructed Ruxiang: "Go and invite them in." ā€

Rue Xiang cautiously glanced up at Grandpa Guo, shocked by his expressionless appearance, and hurriedly retreated.

Lu Han couldn't help it at first, and said indignantly: "Let's eat as a family, what kind of fun are they coming to join in." ā€

Qin Wanxiao glanced at her third son, and said slowly: "How do you speak, they are also your family." ā€

Lu Yu spoke, and his tone was equally angry: "What kind of family are they?" ā€

Qin Wanxiao was about to say something more, when Qi Mingzhu's mother and son arrived.

As soon as he entered the door, Qi Mingzhu's flamboyant voice rang out: "I said sister, you can't do this today." Since our big house is a family dinner, why didn't you send someone to inform us? ā€

"Qi Mingzhu, this is your etiquette?" Lu Zhengxing's eyes swept over coldly.

Qi Mingzhu choked, annoyed, and was about to choke back when suddenly his sleeve was pulled from behind. Looking back, it was Lu Zijin.

Lu Zijin shook his head at Qi Mingzhu, and then pulled his younger brother Lu Cheng to stand up, and said with a blessing: "Daughter (son) has seen father and mother. ā€

Lu Zhengxing glanced at them lightly and did not speak.

Lu Zijin turned his gaze to Qin Wanxiao.

Qin Wanxiao stroked her sideburns and said coldly, "Get up." ā€

Seeing this, Qi Mingzhu was even more resentful in his heart, and glanced at Qin Wanxiao fiercely, but Lu Zhengxing didn't speak.

Lu Zijin took his younger brother to greet the three brothers of Lu Zhi.

Lu Zhi just called them up lightly, but Lu Han and Lu Yu didn't respond at all.

Lu Zijin didn't feel embarrassed, and only looked at Qin Wanxiao with a smile: "I heard the maid say that my father, brothers, and seven sisters are all having dinner at my mother's side, Jin'er thinks that she usually doesn't have time to get close to everyone, so she asked her mother to take us uninvited, and my mother won't be angry, right?" ā€

Lu Chenxi's heart sank, what a Lu Zijin.

In and out of the words, he put himself on a little girl who longed for family affection, and there was an apology in her tone for disturbing everyone's meal, and she begged for all to be ten out of ten. In fact, it is implying that her mother does not treat them as a family, and even the fact that the big house family eats alone her and Lu Cheng.

But it's a pity, Lu Zijin didn't know that it was his father who asked everyone to go to the main courtyard for dinner today.

It was also the father who didn't think to ask them to come with him. Or, my father deliberately couldn't remember.

Sure enough, as soon as Lu Zijin's voice fell, Lu Zhengxing's slightly cold voice sounded: "Today I asked your brothers and sisters to come to the main courtyard for dinner." ā€

Lu Zijin was stunned for a moment, and looked up at Lu Zhengxing in disbelief.

In Lu Zijin's heart, although his father doesn't value himself and his younger brother Lu Cheng very much, he also remembers their two children.

Although he is not as fond of the children born to Qin Wanxiao, he has never neglected it.

But now, what does my father mean by that?

"Daddy, why don't you call me and my sister over for dinner?" Lu Cheng's indignant voice rang out.

Lu Zijin came back to his senses, his heart tightened, and he secretly blamed himself for not looking at his younger brother just now
