Chapter 149: Hospitality
Mrs. Lei wished that Chi Xiaoxiao would be with her, so she politely said: "Yes!" When I saw Miss Chi for the first time, I wonder if I can have a meal together? ”
The head of the Lei family is a straightforward person, so he naturally can't guess his wife's intentions. But after more than 20 years together, I knew a rough idea when I saw her expression, so I endured my dissatisfaction with Chi Xiaoxiao and didn't say anything.
Chi Xiaoxiao looked at Mrs. Lei with a smile, then turned her head to look at Chu Xiong, and said in a calm tone: "Guests are as they please, everything is arranged by Mr. Chu." ”
Chu Xiong is really a person who knows how to enjoy himself, whether it is an extremely luxurious restaurant or a huge team of chefs, it makes Chi Xiaoxiao secretly smack his tongue.
Just the two inconspicuous bottles of Moutai on the dining table are old antiques from the 50s of the last century, and they are really the existence of drinking one bottle and one bottle less.
Chu Xiong happily sat down and said, "You all know that I am a person, I don't like Western things, I heard that Mrs. Lei likes Hui cuisine, come and try our chef here is not authentic." ”
After everyone sat down, Chi Xiaoxiao walked to the last place and sat down.
The servants poured wine for the host and guest in turn, and the aroma of the wine overflowed.
Chi Xiaoxiao stopped the maid who was about to pour wine for herself, and said lightly: "I'm sorry, I'm allergic to alcohol, otherwise I really want to taste what the old Moutai in the 50s of the last century tasted like." ”
Since I know that I am allergic to alcohol, I will not be persuaded to drink at dinner, and it is a good excuse to try and test.
Sure enough, Chu Xiong was not reluctant, and called people to prepare juice.
Men get together to discuss topics that women are often not interested in. Chi Xiaoxiao was bored and competed with the steamed stone chicken in front of her, and was suddenly named by Chu Xiong.
"Miss Chi is not used to eating Hui cuisine?"
Chi Xiaoxiao glanced at Chu Xiong, she really doesn't like Hui dishes with heavy oil and heavy color, but just said that Mrs. Lei likes it, no matter how uninteresting she is, she can't belittle other people's preferences, right?
Smiling slightly, Chi Xiaoxiao said as usual: "I ate too much at noon, and I'm not hungry right now." ”
Mrs. Lei smiled on the side: "It's unappetizing to listen to the topic between men, right?" My family likes to talk about those national events when they have nothing to do. ”
Chi Xiaoxiao asked with a smile: "It seems that Mrs. Lei's political class is not good, but I like to listen to it." ”
Just looked at her gloomily, and suddenly became so enthusiastic at this moment, Chi Xiaoxiao instinctively felt that she was going to do something.
Mrs. Ray didn't mind the hot face sticking to the cold buttocks, and her smile became brighter. "Since Miss Chi has no appetite, why don't you go out for a walk with me?"
Ji Xiaoxiao didn't hesitate, nodded and stood up and walked out.
The head of the Lei family looked at his wife in surprise. I saw Mrs. Lei nodding at Chu Xiong with a confident face, and then followed.
"What are you going to do?" The head of the Lei family finally couldn't help but ask.
Mrs. Lei turned around, smiled and blinked, and briskly threw down the sentence: "Take a walk!" ”
Seeing Mrs. Lei go out, the head of the Lei family was anxious and wanted to follow, but was stopped by Chu Xiong. "Women talk to each other, what are you doing with a big man? Don't drink anymore? ”
The head of the Lei family hesitated, but sat down. He shook his head helplessly and said, "Alas! I'm spoilt for choice! ”
Chu Xiong's eyes flashed, and he regained his composure: "Woman! ”
……
There is a swimming pool at the back of the villa, the water is clear and clean, and the surrounding greenery is also pleasing to the eye.
Chi Xiaoxiao walked straight to the recliner under the parasol and lay down leisurely, well, it was quite comfortable.
Looking at Mrs. Lei, who was sitting by the pool with her shoes off and treading water, Chi Xiaoxiao said flatly: "What did Mrs. Lei say when she asked me to come out?" ”
"Huh!" Mrs. Ray chuckled. "No wonder so many people can't do anything about you, it's really smarter."
"It's just a matter of luck." Chi Xiaoxiao closed her eyes and was quiet, which was very suitable for a nap.
"I'm just curious, what exactly do you want to exchange the patriarchal order of the Chu clan for? As far as I know, that patriarch order is of no use to outsiders except for the Chu people. ”
Chi Xiaoxiao laughed out loud when she heard it, and only after a while did she mock: "That's because Mrs. Lei knows too little." ”
Mrs. Lei looked curious: "Is there any other use?" ”
Chi Xiaoxiao sat up, looked directly at Mrs. Lei, and asked for a long time: "What Chu Xiong didn't say, why should I tell you?" ”
After a pause, Chi Xiaoxiao said to herself: "It's also informed, hehe!" ”
Mrs. Lei's face couldn't be hung up, but she was helpless, she never imagined that one day, she would have a time when she couldn't speak!
Looking at Chi Xiaoxiao without giving up, he asked again: "Miss Chi is very defensive?" ”
Chi Xiaoxiao only asked rhetorically: "Do you have anything worth believing in?" ”
Mrs. Ray choked again.
Chi Xiaoxiao lay down again boredly, and said indifferently: "Coming here is not my choice, but I have no choice but to go down in one breath, so if I don't take out what I want, don't want the patriarch's order." ”
Mrs. Lei began to think about the meaning of her words, and Chi Xiaoxiao didn't bother her, raised her hand to call the servants who were accompanying nearby, and asked for two glasses of juice.
The juice was taken and handed over by Mrs. Lei, and Chi Xiaoxiao instinctively watched her every move.
Although she didn't pay attention to it casually on the surface, the actual action of Mrs. Lei tapping one of the cups made Chi Xiaoxiao see clearly, and as she clicked, a little powdery object also entered the cup and melted with the juice.
When Mrs. Ray came over with a plate, she handed over a clean cup, what does it mean? Is it a false accusation? Being so yourself?
Taking advantage of Mrs. Lei's lack of reaction, Chi Xiaoxiao picked up the cup with something added and drank it all.
"I don't know what I've eaten, I'm so thirsty!" As she spoke, Chi Xiaoxiao began to observe Mrs. Lei's reaction.
Mrs. Ray's panic was fleeting, and she picked up another cup in relief, as if trying to go with the flow. The cunning in his eyes seemed to be satirizing Chi Xiaoxiao, who was clever but was mistaken by cleverness.
"It's better to drink more hot water if you're thirsty, it's okay, Miss Chi should go back and rest early."
Saying that, Mrs. Lei turned around and was about to leave, as if she wanted to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.
Where would Chi Xiaoxiao cling to her, and grabbed her wrist violently.
"Presumptuous!" Mrs. Lei shouted, attracting everyone's attention. "What kind of thing are you that dare to touch me?" said that he shook it vigorously, wanting to shake off Chi Xiaoxiao.
This strength was originally impossible to break free, but Chi Xiaoxiao did it intentionally, how could she not do a full set? By the way, he planted himself in the pool, and he was about to sink after two splashes.
The maid saw that Chi Xiaoxiao couldn't swim, so she hurriedly pulled Chi Xiaoxiao up.
At this time, Mrs. Lei couldn't leave, and the sound here reached the ears of the two men who were drinking, and they all came to see Chi Xiaoxiao's situation.
The temperature at night was still very low, and the wet clothes stuck to the body, which was cold and uncomfortable. The maid found a few bath towels, and helped Chi Xiaoxiao wipe them while helping her to send her back to the room.
Chi Xiaoxiao didn't move, and when she saw Chu Xiong, she only said calmly: "It seems that you don't care about the patriarch's order." ”
Chu Xiong's face changed, he looked at the servant on the side, and without waiting to ask, the servant had already explained in a whisper: "It was Mrs. Lei who pushed Miss Chi down." ”
Although Mrs. Lei didn't hear what the maid said, seeing that Chu Xiong and her husband were looking at her with dark faces, she knew that the maid's explanation must be unfavorable to her.
wanted to defend himself, but was interrupted by Ji Xiaoxiao's continuous sneezing.
"Miss Chi is catching a cold, I'll let the doctor show you, and if you have anything to say, I'll wait until you change this clothes." Chu Xiong said, waving his hand to signal the maid to send Chi Xiaoxiao back.
Chi Xiaoxiao still didn't move, and said indifferently: "Don't dare to bother Mr. Chu to ask for a doctor for me, since Mr. Chu doesn't care about the patriarch's order, please let me go, I will take the patriarch's order, go far, no one can get it, don't worry!" ”
Feel relieved? Chu Xiong's tone almost couldn't be raised! It's easy to stabilize this woman, why did she come up with such a file to stir things up?
"What are you doing here? Don't send Miss Chi back to change her clothes! Chu Xiong's dissatisfied gaze fell on Mrs. Lei, and as soon as Chi Xiaoxiao left, he asked, "The mother of the family is not a child, how can she be so impulsive?" ”
Mrs. Lei was also speechless, and looked at her husband for help, but when she saw that he shook his head and didn't speak, she knew that this matter was not going to be over!
"In-laws, I really accidentally ......" All the justifications were so pale, Mrs. Lei never thought that she would throw people into the pool with that flick of her hand.
It's just a matter of falling into the water, and after a while, will she bite herself again?
"Ma'am? Madam! ”
The voice of the head of the Lei family startled Mrs. Lei, and when she came back to her senses, she realized that Chu Xiong had already strode forward, and he was about to walk away.
"Huh?"
The head of the Lei family was also a little dissatisfied with what had just happened, he never found out that his wife would be such a reckless person, so he wouldn't have brought her with him!
Angrily explained: "The woman has changed her clothes, let's go and see!" Don't be so reckless later! With that, he walked forward.
Mrs. Lei smiled bitterly, he is like this, whenever something happens, he will question his wife first for the first time.
Shake your head and keep up.
In the room, Chi Xiaoxiao let a maid blow her hair, and she still didn't feel warm when she was wrapped in the quilt.
The two doctors in front of him looked at Chi Xiaoxiao at a loss with the medicine box, but they didn't dare to step forward.
The maid hurriedly persuaded: "Miss Chi is angry again, so let's see a doctor first!" ”
Chi Xiaoxiao shook her head, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she began to tremble: "...... No, don't! Let them have it, I, I don't watch...... Doctor! ”
The maid reluctantly continued to blow Chi Xiaoxiao's hair, and the two doctors continued to stare at Chi Xiaoxiao, but they didn't dare to step forward.
Chu Xiong walked in quickly. "Miss Chi, I don't mean to be rude to you, on the contrary, I will treat you as a guest, today's incident is really an accident, if you are dissatisfied, let's wait until you are well!"
