Chapter Seventy-Eight: Lunch
After sitting down, Xia Yingjiu looked left and right, and found that he didn't see Xia Houjin's figure, so he wondered: "Grandpa, where is my father, why didn't he come to eat?" ā
Old Man Xia touched the beard that had grown a little, and said with a smile: "A person just came and called your father away, it should be a matter of the court, don't worry about him, come and taste it quickly, our Xiao Jiu must have not eaten anything in the past few days, look at this little face is a lot sharper."

"Not really." Xia Yingjiu wrinkled his nose.
The grandfather and grandson were talking, but they put Helan Zhi and Helan Xing'er aside.
After a while, seeing that the two of them didn't have the slightest intention of dealing with them, Helan knew that he was really a little unhappy.
In his opinion, the Xia family is indeed a little unsightly, otherwise their Helan family would not have destroyed the marriage immediately, and then completely broke off contact with the Xia family.
At the beginning, it seems that it is even more depressed than it was then.
If it weren't for some special reason, he wouldn't want to come.
It's good now, but I even picked up the shelf.
Although he was unhappy in his heart, but so as not to do bad things, Helan Zhi could only endure it, thinking like this, his heart was naturally becoming more and more unpleasant.
So he put the chopsticks on the table heavily, and said to Ning Ziyue, who was standing behind Xia Yingjiu: "Why don't you have any eyes here, there is not even tea on the table, let's just leave, if outsiders see it, I don't know how to treat the hospitality of Xia Mansion in my heart!" If it spreads, will the reputation of Xia Mansion be lost? ā
When these words are spoken, anyone with a discerning eye can hear it, and it really means that there is some meaning of scolding Huai.
Ning Ziyue pointed at herself in surprise, somehow leading the topic to her.
Then her mouth deflated, Ning Ziyue still felt wronged in her heart, no matter how good Miss was to her on weekdays, if there were no outsiders at this meal, she could eat at the same table, if there were outsiders, she would have to stand on the side and serve seriously.
She had already gotten up early today, and she hadn't even eaten breakfast, if it weren't for these two "outsiders", where would she have to stand here hungry and watch them eat.
That's it, she hasn't said anything yet, but these "outsiders" have begun to point fingers.
Ning Ziyue is not a bun either, and she also knows in her heart how impatient Xia Yingjiu is with these two people, so she is not empty at all, and she opened her mouth and said: "This uncle, why are you unreasonable, after all, it is a family banquet, I don't care about what it means to eat, but we have to have a little common sense, don't we?" Whoever drinks tea while eating, is that tea drunk while eating? For the sake of your body, why don't you appreciate it! ā
Xia Yingjiu knows Ning Ziyue's temperament, this girl is usually sharp-toothed and sharp-tongued, no matter how you look at it, she doesn't need her support, sometimes she can wrap her half to death when she speaks, and she is definitely at ease in dealing with such scenes.
So she was not born, and sure enough, she opened her mouth.
Helan Zhi also encountered this situation for the first time, and immediately stayed in place.
"You're so polite to talk to your subordinates, how dare you talk to the master's family like this." Helan Xing'er on the side also frowned and reprimanded.
Ning Ziyue didn't laugh angrily: "How fresh, this young lady, you look beautiful, why are you so ugly, you are the next person, you are the next person, your whole family is a person!" ā
"You!" Helan Xing'er was really angry, thinking to herself, no wonder Xia Mansion can be so down, even the subordinates don't understand the rules at all, if this is in Helan's house, I am afraid that they would have been driven out a long time ago, where can they be presumptuous here!
Seeing that she was about to speak, Xia Yingjiu coughed lightly and said slowly: "Ziyue, why is your temper so big." ā
Even so, the expression on his face was completely different, the deep approval in his eyes was not concealed in the slightest, and there was no blame in his tone, as if it was just a trivial matter.
Ning Ziyue successfully received the signal from her own young lady, and happily ran back to Xia Yingjiu's side, and stopped talking with interest.
Even if she knew that Xia Yingjiu had no good impression of these two people, but after all, this place still had to be about rules and etiquette, and it was indeed considered a transgression, but she had the support of the young lady, but it would not end well if it was over.
Ning Ziyue felt that she was really well-behaved.
"Uncle Xia, you have to be the master for us! This Xia Mansion can't let children mess around here, right? This reputation has also been accumulated with great difficulty. At this time, Helan Zhi also reacted, forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, or Old Man Xia said.
