On Bai Qihong's birthday, it was just night, and the lanterns outside the Juxintang teahouse were half the sky; The stage in the center of the lobby was set up early, and there were ten mahogany circle chairs at the bottom of the stage, and the people who came in and out of the water put the melon and fruit desserts on high-legged enamel plates and placed them on the small table next to the chairs.

Bai Qihong took his wife into the seat, because he was the birthday star, and today he sat in the chief position, sitting in the north and facing south, Chinese tradition. On the right hand side of Hua Ting is Jian Yi, who is dressed in an ink-colored suit, and then there is Jian Maosheng, who is also well-dressed, and Mrs. Jane, who is extremely vulgar with red and pink; Today's Bai Qihong didn't do pomp, and only invited the three members of the Jian family, but what made her strange was that why did Chen Jingzhi come again?

Looking at Madame Jane's mean appearance, Madame Bai seemed much more gentle and pleasing to the eye.

Today, Mrs. Bai was dressed in a festive Chinese-style pink placket gown, combed her makeup carefully, her rouge was lightly fainted on her cheeks, and an old jade hairpin that she did not wear much on weekdays was inserted next to her bun, and the color of the red lantern printed with it became more and more gorgeous and moving.

Look, such a dignified and atmospheric wife can only have face when she takes it out!

Hua Ting took a sip of sugar steamed cheese and squinted slightly, and Shi Yinai in the stands was ready.

A dozen boards and strings, the play on the stage will start singing leisurely, a beautiful sword horse and phoenix with flower makeup stared, and then started to sing in an embroidered voice, as soon as he spoke, the voice was a little low, and everyone knew that this red-dressed Dan was actually a reverse string.

Bai Qihong specially invited the troupe of the ancient family ancestral hall to sing three plays in the Juxintang teahouse, not for anything else, just because he likes the troupe of the ancient family ancestral hall to sing "Mu Guiying is in charge", this little stubbornness is similar to her great-grandfather.

Shi Yinai walked slowly to the edge of the stage, and almost inaudibly winked at Jian Yi in front of him, who looked at this familiar face and chuckled in surprise.

Shi Yinai covered her lips with a silk and sang softly.

Hua listened but just wanted to roll his eyes.

Bai Qihong was originally shaking his head along the drama with his eyes closed, and when he heard his laughter, he also took a closer look at the Dan Jiao on the stage, and looked at it for a while before asking, "This is the movie star?" ”

"Well, it's called Shi Yin Ai." Jane replied.

"You know?"

"It's kind of a friendship."

Bai Qihong nodded, turned the green jade wrench on his thumb with his right hand, and said, "It's good to be born." After a pause, he turned his head and said to the butler beside him, "Reward." ”

The butler smiled and agreed, and then shouted in a long tone towards the platform: "Reward-"

Before the words fell, there were already a few small people waiting for the broken money plate under the stage, grabbed a few handfuls of broken money and threw it on the table, in the courtyard where the red candles were shining, the sky-shaking cheers and the muffled sound of the coins rolling down on the wooden platform, in such a lively situation, the flowers listened to and drank the peach source brew, and looked sideways at the light in Jian Yi's smile, and he was also a little drunk.

"Why haven't you seen the little apprentice beside Brother Bai recently?" Jian Maosheng's face was flushed, obviously he had drunk a lot of wine.

"Let him take a long vacation," Bai Qihong was already in his stomach with three glasses of white wine when he spoke, "I went to play in the mountains and rivers with my wife." ”

Sightseeing? Flower listened and wanted to roll her eyes.

Obviously, I received news a while ago that Director Qian secretly sent someone and even used a private detective to secretly investigate the murder of Yang Xiaoquan, the chairman of the national government, so Bai Qihong asked Ding Sicheng to go out to avoid the limelight, how did Bai Qihong let him go out for a long vacation to spend a little honeymoon?

I don't know much about the opera Jane, and I didn't forget to add two pieces of her favorite braised pork ribs to the bowl while eating a glass of white wine.

This action was seen by Mrs. Bai, and it was rare to be funny: "Since Hua Ting married Jian Yi, I forgot to go home to see my mother-in-law." The meaning is strange, but the smile is very gentle.

"Isn't it?" Jian Maosheng echoed with a smile, "My son hasn't come home to see me since the day he got married. ”

Jian Yi affectionately took Hua Ting's shoulder, with a look of affection Shi Yinai on the stage just sang to the emotional place, and the soft and moist voice was stuck in the transposition, but fortunately, no one paid attention, but Hua Ting had a heart.

Everyone was laughing, but Madame Jane's smile was awkwardly on her lips, and she didn't speak, but when she pinched the teacup with three fingers, she paused slightly.

Hua thought that she would not be stupid enough to mention Jian Yi's concubine on such an occasion, but she didn't expect that she would really guess it.

"A few days ago, we were planning to let Jane marry another concubine......"

Before Mrs. Jian finished speaking, she was intercepted by Jian Maosheng, "What nonsense? ”

Bai Qihong was picking up a piece of jade bean cake on the table, and when he heard this, his face couldn't help but darken, "Concubine? ”

Mrs. Jian is a talker, and her cheerful tone has not stopped: "Yes, thinking that Jian Yitong Jingzhi, this child has been playing together since he was a child, and he is a childhood sweetheart, plus two people......"

"Mom, what nonsense are you talking about? What concubine? Are you confused? A hand under Jian Yi's desk tightly grasped Hua Ting's cold, slender right hand that hung on the side of his leg.

Before Mrs. Jian could speak, she heard the celadon teapot on the other side gently resting on the table, Bai Qihong raised his eyebrows, and said in a light tone: "What?" Does the Jane family have such a rule? ”

Jian Maosheng helplessly explained with a smile: "Don't listen to her nonsense, maybe it's because Madame drank too much...... A hand under the table kept straining on Madame Jane's thigh, so that she could shut up obediently.

"And I like Sister Hua so much, how could I marry her someone else?" Jian Yi's eyebrows were slightly curved, his smile was real and bright, he turned his head to Zhu Hua Ting, his eyes were full of affection, "You said yes, Sister Hua?" ”

Hearing Jian Yi say these words mercilessly, Chen Jingzhi's wrist sank, and the gold bracelet carved with pear blossoms fell heavily, stuck on her wrist bone, and it hurt a little, so she didn't have the heart to speak, so she lowered her head.

Since when did Jian Yi's little love words easily penetrate Hua Ting's heart, making her heart beat gently, and her right hand unconsciously touched the ring on the ring finger of her left hand, as if it fell to the ground without paying attention.

Bai Qihong's face finally looked better, but Mrs. Jian still didn't know how to raise it: "It's normal for us Jian Yi to marry concubines, what's wrong?" ”

Hearing this, Bai Qihong's face sank again.

Hua listened speechlessly, this Mrs. Jane's emotional intelligence is really low enough, look at the dignified and elegant appearance of Mrs. Bai, not twisted, not pretentious, but elegant and gentle, when not speaking, quietly smile, when you speak, a pair of spring-like eyes always look at you gently and gently, and the voice is more like overflowing from the ancient well, properly flowing into your heart.

Jian Maosheng stood up with his anger in his back, and his voice was extremely restrained to prevent himself from roaring: "You better go home first!" "Lest a birthday party be messed up by this foolish lady for no apparent reason.

Mrs. Jian stood up with a small leather bag, and did not forget to pull Chen Jingzhi on the side, "Jian Maosheng!" You don't regret it! ”

"Let's go, let's go!" Jian Maosheng seemed unwilling to look at her again.

"Don't regret it!"

"Let's go, let's go!" Jian Maosheng was extremely impatient and pushed her twice from behind.

"Good! Don't regret it! Mrs. Jane raised her head and puffed up her chest, "I'll go!" Before leaving, he didn't forget to turn his head and glared at her fiercely.

What kind of farce is this? Hua Ting wanted to laugh, but found that Jane on the side shook her head helplessly.

Bai Qihong reached out expressionlessly and took the cigarette handed by Jian Maosheng, and threw it aside, "What did Mrs. Jian mean by what she said just now?" ”

Jian Maosheng smiled, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows twitched slightly, "Ignorant woman, don't take her words at ease." ”

Seeing that Jian Maosheng played a round, Bai Qihong no longer pursued it.

Jane's hand hanging down at the bottom of the table still held her tightly on the tip of her heart, as if she was afraid that she would escape.

Hua Ting turned his face sideways, Jian Yi's serious eyes were straight nose, he pursed his lips, and said softly: "I will only marry one person as my wife in this life." ”

The words are beautiful, the smile is also real, I can't find fault, and I can't find the slightest thing against my heart, so my heart twitched hard.

The fingertips moved unconsciously, his palms were warm, but the fingertips were cold, leisurely hooked on his slightly sunken palms, the beginning was light and the tail was heavy, the heavy one hit the bottom of Hua Ting's heart, and the light one scratched the tip of her heart.

What exactly does she want? She couldn't say it to herself.

"What do you say that if the jade girl doesn't marry the white man, she will definitely want me to become a family again in the Toad Palace. It's even more annoying to come to the door and not see the lady's face, it's like

Flower ...... in the mirror of the moon in the water"

Shi Yinai on the stage bent two bends and bends like frowning and not frowning, and a pair of eyes that seem to be crying but not crying. With shaved shoulders and bee waists, there is a pitiful posture.

"How is Brother Bai's business with Shihei Inagaki going?"

The atmosphere at the dinner table was unexpectedly solemn because of Jian Maosheng's words.

Hua listened to the stage and pulled back all her attention, pricking up her ears and listening hard.

Bai Qihong lit a cigarette, shook his head and sighed: "I can't talk about it." ”

"This Inagaki Shihei's appetite is not small, we have already reduced him by three percent on the basis of the original price, what reason does he have to be dissatisfied?"

"Of course I'm not satisfied," Bai Qihong's eyes looked a little irritable, "Dog, you want to take the goods from me at the lowest price and then sell them at a high price, heh!" His smile was dangerous, full of murderous intent, "This dog thing has recently intended to develop its business in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, and it is beautiful!" ”

Jian Maosheng picked up the tin porcelain teapot on the table, but did not pour it into the cup, but said with a sad face: "If it is not appropriate to negotiate with Inagaki Zhiping, the shipping side will ...... I'm afraid it's going to be a little difficult. ”

"I know." Bai Qihong slowly exhaled a puff of smoke.

"Let's ask him out for dinner tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."

Thinking about it, this Inagaki Zhiping is also a difficult character, with his position in the new government, even Jian Maosheng has to give him three points.

But the opportunity was in front of her, "It's better to ......" Hua listened to Jian and glanced at each other.

Bai Qihong narrowed his eyes, flicked off the cigarette ash from his fingertips, and motioned for her to continue.

"It's better to ...... Let me try! ”

Hua Ting restrained a warm and moist smile, his eyebrows and eyes were open, and he was so arrogant. (To be continued.) )
