There is only one 60th birthday in a person's life, and after the 60th birthday, he is basically at the end of his life. 『』

Kong Hanlin did not hold his birthday with great fanfare, and did not deliberately make cakes, blow out candles, make wishes and other Western-style ways to celebrate his birthday.

Just invite a few good friends, a few family representatives, and a family to get together for a meal, of course, the staff of this family is too large, so the hall is full.

It is a traditional birthday, and the first thing is the etiquette of having an elder give a red envelope to the junior.

It took more than ten minutes just to distribute red envelopes, and the red envelopes were distributed casually, and everyone got a red envelope.

Ma Lie was lucky and got a check with 880,000 yuan written on it, and his eyes were green.

Come to the banquet and get red envelopes, the treatment of civil servants.

This time it was not in vain, and it was okay to suffer a little bird anger.

After the red envelopes are distributed, it is the turn of the children and grandchildren to give gifts to the birthday star. It's just that there are too many Kong's children and grandchildren who eat on the spot, and it is impossible to give gifts one by one.

In order to save everyone's time to prepare meals, only a few descendants of the descendants gave gifts. The other five major families can only send one representative to give gifts.

When it was Hang Xuezhen's turn to deliver the prepared gifts to Kong Hanlin on behalf of the Hang family, there was a little accident.

That Kong Hanlin was in good spirits, and he had not yet reached the age of old eyes and faintness.

He took the gift on one side, held Hang Xuezhen's wrist with the other hand, and asked kindly: "Xuezhen, you are not young, when will you marry my family Qide?" ”

"Ah, get married?" Hang Xue was really overwhelmed by Old Man Kong's question, her face turned red, and she didn't know what to say.

"Young people, when they are together, there are always some bumps, bear with it, let it pass!" Kong Hanlin seemed to be talking to himself: "Xue Zhen, my family Qide is young and vigorous, and he has done a lot of foolish things, I have already taught him a lesson for you, you see, I won't let him attend my birthday, it's sincere enough." ”

"Uncle Kong, I'm with him," Hang Xue said in a real voice, "It's unlikely that I'll talk to him." ”

Kong Hanlin sighed: "Xue Zhen, I know that you had a little misunderstanding because of a trivial matter before. Hehe, it doesn't matter, I have excellent sons, many excellent sons are not married yet, then Xiao Qide you don't like it, I can introduce another excellent son to you, our Kong and Hangzhou families have been friends for many years, and until now, they are still monolithic. ”

Hang Xuezhen didn't know if he knew about his affairs with Ma Lie, seeing that he was so enthusiastic, he didn't want to hide it anymore, and explained vaguely: "Uncle Kong, I have someone else." ”

"What is no one else's, today is your Uncle Kong's birthday, hehe, you must not let me down?" After speaking, Kong Hanlin clapped his palms, and a young and handsome man walked over gracefully, bowed to him, and said, "Dad, Qixin wishes you happiness like the East China Sea and longevity than Nanshan." ”

"Excuse me!" Kong Hanlin pointed his finger at Hang Xuezhen and introduced: "Son, you just came back from studying in the Great Western Kingdom, and you have never seen Xue Zhen, come, let me introduce you to you, this is Hang Xuezhen, the eldest lady of the Hang family." ”

"Xue Zhen, this is my first son?" Kong Hanlin turned around and looked at the beautiful woman sitting next to him for help.

The beautiful woman glanced at him with a smile and reminded: "Dead ghost, he is your thirty-first son, Qixin." ”

"Yes, it's my thirty-first son Qixin, hehe, look at my memory, I forgot how many sons rank first!" Kong Hanlin laughed at himself: "Xue Zhen, my son has been studying in Daxi with his mother since he was a child, he has a gentle personality and loves sports, right, what sports do you love?" ”

Kong Qixin replied: "I love fishing, and I like to play lo." ”

Kong Hanlin said vaguely: "Well, fishing is a good sport, my son likes fishing, both civil and military." He just came back from the West the day before yesterday, and his knowledge and bearing should be good, so let's get to know each other first. ”

"Miss Hang, hello!" Kong Qixin bowed slightly to Hang Xuezhen, took the initiative to stretch out a friendly palm, and whispered: "I still like to be with women, and my skills are good, I'm glad to meet you." ”

"Uh, hello!" Hang Xue shook his hand awkwardly and said apologetically: "I don't like to be absent from the company, I have time to chat." ”

"Wait!"

Kong Hanlin stopped Hang Xuezhen, who was about to walk away, and said coldly: "Qixin, don't worry, take Xuezhen to sit next to you and talk slowly." ”

"Yes, Father!" Kong Qixin responded respectfully, turned his head to Hang Xuezhen and said, "Miss Hang, I still have a seat over there, I invite you to go and sit down over there." ”

Hang Xuezhen turned his head to look at the location indicated to him, which was on the fourth banquet, where the people of the Kong family were sitting. Then he pushed and said euphemistically: "I'm sorry, that's the position of your Confucian family's children, I can't sit." ”

"Xue Zhen, you're talking nonsense again!" The beautiful woman beside Kong Hanlin suddenly said: "You have a marriage contract with our Kong family, and you can be regarded as the prospective daughter-in-law of my Kong family, sitting there is very suitable." ”

"Wrong, it's not right to sit anywhere!"

"Ma Lie, how are you?"

"Xue Zhen, I have to break the ring!"

This time it was Ma Lie who stood up and spoke, and he came out with confidence.

Just now, his Shunfeng ears clearly heard that this kind old man Kong relied on the old man to sell the old, and so aggressively forced Hang Xue to match his son Lalang, and he didn't care about Hang Xuezhen's true feelings, which really made sense.

And his thirty-first son, who has a human-faced beast heart, don't look at him handsome, polite, but there is a beast-like ambition hidden in it.

Still like to talk to women**? Ma Lie wanted to beat him up, and then sue him: This is nonsense, what man on earth doesn't like **?

But he dared to say such things when he met for the first time, and you can imagine how bad this turtle son's face and his character are.

Is it bearable or unbearable, but it is his girlfriend and fiancée standing over there, Ma Lie naturally can't sit still.

"Old man Kong, don't forget that today is your birthday, is the purpose of your first day to introduce your son to a blind date?"

Ma Lie's previous impression of this half-old man was not bad, but after this time, his good impression of him collapsed, and it was replaced by anger.

"Your name is Ma Lie?" Kong Hanlin noticed Ma Lie at this time and asked lightly.

Ma Lie replied confidently: "That's right, I am Ma Lie, or Miss Hang."

Without waiting for him to finish, Kong Hanlin directly interrupted: "I know, you are her fiancé and personal bodyguard?" ”

"Well, it's good that you know!" Ma Lie stretched out his hand to hold Hang Xuezhen's wrist and said calmly: "She already has a fiancé, but she is not the prospective daughter-in-law of your Kong family, so I ask you to pay attention to your proportions." ”

"What's the measure?"

"Measure is the scale, do you want me to help you measure it?"

"Hehe, no need, do you look at my memory?" Kong Hanlin smiled and laughed at himself: "I'm really old and confused, not only did I forget my son's shun, but I also forgot about your business, hehe, it's okay!" ”

"It's alright, isn't it?" Seeing that he was willing to admit it, Ma Lie didn't want to pursue it so much, and said, "Then we should go back to the table, because everyone is hungry!" ”

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect to delay everyone's dinner!" Kong Hanlin generously admitted his mistake, raised his hand, and said loudly: "Everyone, I now officially announce that this 60th birthday banquet is warm and grand. ”

Bang bang bang

As soon as the words fell, the audience immediately applauded, and for a long time, Ma Lie took advantage of the situation to pull Hang Xuezhen back to his original position.

"Ma Lie, you are too reckless!" Thinking back to what had just happened, Hang Xue really saw the fierce light in Kong Hanlin's eyes, and he still had palpitations.

Ma Lie pouted and said, "Xue Zhen, what I did just now is called recklessness, what is the old man's words and deeds called?" ”

Hang Xuezhen said indifferently: "I don't know. ”

Ma Lie said angrily: "He is called a hooligan, in front of so many people, so many sons are playing hooligan in front of you, how can you still tell me to endure it?" ”

Hang Xue really said: "Forget it, it's all over, let's eat first!" ”

Ma Lie picked up the dishes and chopsticks and said in a deep voice: "I think, this matter will definitely not be so simple!" ”

A series of exquisite delicacies from the mountains and seas are all put on the table, and the fragrant meals are mouth-watering. However, after the unpleasant episode just now, Ma Lie and Hang Xue really didn't have much appetite to eat.

In order to retaliate, but also to fill his stomach, the chopsticks in Ma Lie's hand aimed at the Baishou turtle placed in the middle. This Baishou turtle is delicate and sweet, which profoundly represents the longevity of the year, and also represents the significance of the 60th birthday of the old man Kong.

"Hey, you're going to have to be careful tonight." While he was eating the turtle, Lu Xueling, who was sitting next to him, poked him with his elbow and reminded him in a low voice.

"What am I careful of?" Ma Lie heard her voiceover and asked vigilantly.

Lu Xueling glanced at the half turtle in his bowl, pouted, and said, "I also want to eat Baishou turtle." ”

Ma Lie smiled and said, "If Miss Lu doesn't dislike it, I'll give you a little." ”

Lu Xueling said: "Don't dislike it! ”

"Then I'll give you a little!" Ma Lie cut half with a small knife, put it on a small plate, and handed it to her: "Miss, please use it slowly." ”

"Thank you!" Lu Xueling generously took the plate, but did not move the chopsticks, but said strangely: "The turtle is docile and sluggish on the surface, but if it is forced to be urgent, it will bite, I dare not eat it." ”

"Really?" Ma Lie responded lightly, secretly pondering the meaning of Lu Xueling's words. Because, he just pushed a turtle into a hurry.

When and how it bites, on other people's territory, this requires Ma Lie to be a little more vigilant
