Remember [34 Chinese Network .] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
It was so noisy, it was Saturday, and the family was sleeping. Even Mrs. Deng, several young masters and grandmothers in the family came down with their heads unkempt, and a bunch of people were responsible for persuading one. Mrs. Dudeng stood in the middle and scolded: "It's really not worry-free, I asked you to talk to your daughter, not to ask you to make a big noise like this." He turned to deny Teresa Teng, "You too, don't rely on yourself to drink some foreign ink, and you don't recognize your six relatives at home." I don't like the remarks of foreigners that small families are doing their own things and are responsible for themselves. Don't be so flattering to foreigners, and take Western doctrines as the standard for everything. According to me, there is still merit in traditional ethics. ”
Lisha Teng picked up the first few sisters-in-law who were in front of her, and was about to refute them, but Mrs. Deng took the lead and suppressed her even louder: "Don't think that traditions are rotten, let me ask you first, don't you engage in that feminist movement, aren't you respectful to your predecessors, isn't this the traditional respect for teachers and education?" Obviously, you yourself have proved that tradition is also right. You can rationally keep the traditional master-apprentice relationship, why can't you do it with the traditional family relationship? Is it because we parents always spoil you, so you are extra arrogant? If you want to accuse me of sophistry just like accusing your father of sophistry, I will admit it, just because the two of us owe you in our previous lives. Dragged you to such a big age, I also read books, and I have been to Liuyang, and now I have come to collect debts from me......"
Mrs. Deng read words all the way, slammed the door and left. Leaving a few rooms, the sons and daughters-in-law persuaded in the middle, the sons took Deng Lian back to the room to rest, and the daughters-in-law took Deng Lisha to the living room to sit down and drink tea.
As soon as the door closed, Mrs. Deng looked at Deng Lian from the dressing mirror and asked, "This girl doesn't even listen to good words, what are you going to do next?" ”
"Then ...... Use the method of direct pointing. Deng Lian was very tired, and he didn't want to understand the mechanism in detail, so he changed into pajamas and made up for a day's sleep at home.
###
After half a month, Xu Runlian suddenly sent a famous post to the celebrities in the capital, inviting her to enjoy the chrysanthemums. Although it is clearly said, in fact, everyone understands. Shen Chuyun, the former editor-in-chief, has a great reputation, and Xu Runlian is not good at celebrating her promotion, so she can only use the excuse of enjoying flowers to call celebrities to her home.
Mrs. Deng took the post, thought about it for a while, and persuaded Deng Lian not to make any moves, she was going to take Teresa Teng to break the ice together, and everything would be planned when they came back.
Deng Lian thinks that's fine, no matter what, the fact that Teresa Teng went to the Prime Minister's Office always means reconciliation in the eyes of outsiders.
On the day of the chrysanthemum banquet, the Prime Minister's Office was full of VIPs.
I saw that in the Western-style living room, many large dining tables were connected together, and each side was placed on two sides. A large custom-made white tablecloth is laid on it, and chrysanthemums are placed on each table. Outside the hall, on the flower stand in the courtyard, there are the most bright red, followed by green and purple, and a few pots of pure white are placed in the middle to decorate, which is particularly eye-catching. The chrysanthemums in full bloom of all colors are as big as a plate, and the small ones will be as big as the fingertips.
Teresa Teng followed Mrs. Deng through the eaves to the living room, and saw many porcelain pots and various chrysanthemums planted along the way. The messenger led the way, and he would also introduce which one came from the south and which one came from overseas. The large ones are hung on the windowsills, and the small ones are hung on the doors, or hang down from the beams.
Entering the living room, the music stand in the middle was just a dance, and everyone was resting.
Teresa Teng met a few acquaintances and went to the table with cookies and cakes to chat.
The Russian band played again, and the dance floor was filled with happy young men dressed in red and green.
Teresa Teng smiled at her girlfriend next to her: "Look at it, every time there is such a salon, the hair is brushed all the way through, and the leather shoes are like being smeared with several layers of shoe polish." It's all so light that I can't tell who's who. ”
She didn't realize that on the dance floor, Xiang Lan, the old rumored rival in love, was wearing a thin and narrow gown with blue mandarin ducks on a white background, talking to the protagonist.
Today's banquet is very prepared with a combination of Chinese and Western, and the entertainment is all Western gadgets on the one hand, but the female guests are invited to wear traditional costumes on the post. The Chinese-style beauty with the Western-style salon culture has become a very eye-catching scenery.
Xu Runlian picked up a small red flower from the tray, compared it to Xiang Lan's ear, and said with a smile: "Today's female guests are all hairpins." I thought this one was the best, especially for your skin tone. Sister Xianglan, if you can trust me, just put this one on the hairpin. ”
Xiang Lan hurriedly stretched out his hand to take the hairpin behind his ear, and said politely: "The third young grandmother's vision is always good, I want to say that it is not good, it is like not knowing the goods." ”
Mrs. Deng, who was separated from Teresa Teng, happened to walk behind Liang Xiuzhen, and followed her slightly angry eyes to see this scene. Because he sneered and whispered: "Xiuzhen, it's not me talking about you, the biggest problem with you is that you are inevitably petty." ”
Liang Xiuzhen was frightened by the sudden words, and she jumped involuntarily. Turning around, he patted his chest and slowed down, before saying hello.
Mrs. Deng chuckled and continued to analyze in a low voice: "Why do you say that she Xu Runlian wants to be so good with the fourth young grandmother in your house, it's not because you know that you don't like her." The more you stay in the corner like this and are jealous of the fourth young grandmother's friendship with others, the more you fall into the trap of others. ”
Liang Xiuzhen pursed her lips, rubbed her toes against the carpet, and twisted her body slightly: "Auntie's words, I either haven't thought about it, or because I thought about it, I feel extra tightness in my chest." Isn't it just a speculation in the Beijing News that has no beginning and no end, why does she spend all day long trying to find the bad luck of our two families? ”
"You're young." Mrs. Deng took one of her hands, put it on her arm, and said with a pretended anger, "In this matter, our Deng family is no more headache than the Han family, but do you think I am a little unhappy today?" Look, I just have to bring Lisa with me. She won't let me get better, and if I hide and get angry, it's not worth it. It's going to be hard to pull her together, so it's called ability! ”
Liang Xiuzhen breathed a sigh of relief from the dantian, thinking that this was a lesson learned, and nodded heavily. The two chatted for a while.
Mrs. Deng walked to the place where the drink was placed, took a glass of still bubbling soda, looked around, and asked, "By the way, what about your mother-in-law?" ”
Liang Xiuzhen replied: "The fifth sister in the family is sick, and my mother-in-law stays to take care of her. ”
I had never heard of this, and Mrs. Deng couldn't help but ponder it. Then, with a clear smile, he said, "It's not necessary for the whole family to come." Then, he took a step closer and whispered in Liang Xiuzhen's ear, "It's all here, if you don't get it right, it's like a provocation; It's too kind, and it seems to be soft. So, I just brought Lisa. ”
Liang Xiuzhen was guessed by her, and thought that it was her own family, of course, there was nothing to deny. So he also climbed on her shoulder, and chirped for a while.
The two of them chatted engagedly, and they didn't expect that they were blocking the place to get drinks at the moment.
A fashionable woman wearing a blue bamboo leaf Indian cloth gown and perming her hair interrupted them apologetically: "Two wives, ......" and then pointed behind them with her hand.
Liang Xiuzhen said sorry and got out of the way.
Mrs. Deng was behind and greeted in surprise: "Yo, Miss Jin." When did you return to China? I didn't even know it. After shaking his hand, he turned around and smiled, "Xiuzhen, let me introduce you to you." This is Miss Jin, whose name is Jade Pupil. When he gave way, he quickly bit Liang Xiuzhen's ear under the cover of singing and dancing, "The only daughter of Prince Xiang, this is the only one left in the family." ”
Liang Xiuzhen kept smiling, and politely exchanged a few words with Jin Yutong that didn't matter. Complimenting each other to the point of dressing up, Liang Xiuzhen stared at Jin Yutong's hand with envy and praised: "Mi Sijin's ring is so beautiful." ”
"Thank you." Jin Yutong smiled and nodded, and also praised the Xiangyun yarn on Liang Xiuzhen's body, which looked extraordinary.
Liang Xiuzhen said politely: "I have time to play at home!" ”
Unexpectedly, Jin Yutong should be extra serious about this sentence: "That dare is good, your house must be a good place to go, I have always wanted to go, but I am afraid that you will not go." With that in mind, I'll definitely be visiting. ”
Liang Xiuzhen only regarded it as an orphan girl in the previous dynasty, and it was inevitable that she liked to make friends with a family in power, so she smiled and didn't care.
After Jin Yutong left, Mrs. Deng explained: "She's also lucky." Although she was born in a bitter fetus, her father and mother died early, and the court also changed her surname, but the little foundation in the family was enough for her to go abroad to live a good life. I heard that she also has a pair of adoptive parents in the UK, and her adoptive mother treats her very well. ”
Liang Xiuzhen's eyes rolled, and she smiled evilly and said softly: "How does my aunt know that it is my adoptive mother?" ”
Mrs. Deng held back a smile, pointed her nose with her hand, and said, "You, you don't want to say anything in your stomach, you have to say it." ”
"Got it, this is not the place to talk." Liang Xiuzhen smiled, and then shrunk her mouth and stopped talking.
After another dance, the two of them saw that Xu Runlian had already pulled Xiang Lan and greeted Deng Lisha in a loud voice: "Isn't this Lisa's sister, are you free this week, there is a bachelor salon I don't know if I have the honor to invite you here?" ”
Teresa smiled politely and declined: "I don't really like this kind of socialization. ”
Xu Runlian deliberately joked at Xiang Lan instead: "I thought Lisa was very cheerful, but it turned out that she was very traditional and shy when it came to marriage." You see, it's not blushing anymore. ”
Xiang Lan gradually learned some things about Teresa Teng after marriage, and everyone in the family tried their best to clarify, but she was not too unhappy. It's just that Leng Buding met Teresa Teng face to face like this, and he didn't know how to greet him or what kind of mentality he should have.
However, Deng Lisha smiled and greeted first: "Fourth young grandmother, I have never had the opportunity to congratulate you in person." So, he held out his hand to her and asked, "Late blessings, don't mind?" ”
Xiang Lan nodded shyly, handed his hand over, and shook it several times.
Seeing that such a scandal has been rumored in many versions in the circle, it is about to come to an end. Xu Runlian was willing to let go, and deliberately raised her voice to attract everyone to look over: "Oh, I really should have asked a photography master to keep this scene of history." ”
