Chapter 56: Mom's Taste
The layout of the front yard hall of Pei's Mansion is similar to that of Tang Mansion, both of which are one living room and two ear rooms, and the size of the space is almost the same, but the furnishings inside are very different.
Exquisite porcelain, gorgeous decoration, even the chair sitting under the buttocks is carved from rosewood, the whole high-end atmosphere is high-grade, as soon as he enters the living room, Tang Lu, this kid, has a feeling of self-shame, staring at the ground with his head down, he doesn't even dare to take a breath of air, holding the gift box in his arms, and closely follows behind Tang Xiu's buttocks.
This is not the first time he has entered the hall of the Pei family, when the relationship between the Pei and Tang families was not bad, Tang Lu had also come with the old master and young master a few times, it stands to reason that it should be no surprise, but Tang Lu somehow couldn't let go, and he felt particularly awkward and depressed in such a magnificent hall.
Walking into the middle of the hall, Tang Xiu's body stopped suddenly, Tang Lu didn't pay attention and bumped into it directly, fortunately, there was some distance between each other and the speed of walking was not fast, the two of them touched each other slightly, but the gift boxes held by Tang Lu touched Tang Xiu's back slightly, and did not show a big difference.
Taking advantage of the time when Pei Shiyuan and Pei Shixin stepped forward to report to Pei Youdao, Tang Xiu turned around and glared at Tang Lu fiercely.
Looking at Tang Lu's cramped and restless appearance, he didn't know where to put his hands and feet, and he knew that this kid was inferior to himself by these luxurious decorations in the Pei family's living room.
People are poor and short-minded, and horses are thin and long-haired.
It's like throwing a person who grew up in a mountain nest into a five-star hotel in a bustling city, and while being dazzled by the bright lights in the hotel, it is natural that he is at a loss and does not know how to deal with himself.
It's just that what Tang Xiu didn't expect was that Tang Lu, this kid, would have this kind of self-ashamed inferiority reaction, after living in the Tang Mansion for so many years, and eating and drinking and having fun behind Tang Xiu's ass for a long time, he should have seen some of the world, how could he have such a reaction now?
Fortunately, Tang Xiu felt a sense when he was about to collide, and his body leaned forward a little in time, otherwise if he hit the porcelain, he would lose face and lose his hair.
Tang Lu shrunk his neck, not daring to look at Tang Xiu.
There are some things that Tang Xiu may not remember much if he has amnesia, but Tang Lu himself is like a mirror in his heart.
In the past, when the Tang family had not yet declined, Tang Lu was very unkind to Young Master Tang Xiu, and every time he went out, Tang Xiu gave priority to taking Tang Fu and Tang Shou with them, one of the most important reasons was that Tang Lu, this kid, couldn't see too big a scene, and it was a shame to take him to the banquet.
The occasion was not right, Tang Xiu just glared at Tang Lu and didn't say anything, turned around and looked at Pei Youdao and the other three women who were seated in the main hall.
Pei Youdao is in his forties, his figure is thin, and his appearance does not look like a traitorous face as Tang Xiu imagined, on the contrary, this Pei Youdao is still a dignified-looking old handsome guy, with a decent temperament, and it looks like it will make people feel good.
If he didn't really know what the Pei family had done to the Tang family, Tang Xiu couldn't believe that such a handsome old man with such a dignified appearance turned out to be a Yue Buqun who was in front of him and behind his back.
It's really blind with such a good skin.
Seeing Pei Youdao looking at them with a smile, Tang Xiu's eyes turned and aimed at the three women beside Pei Youdao.
The closest seat to Pei Youdao is a beautiful woman who is nearly forty years old, with fair skin and good appearance, although she is not confused, but the coquettish posture on her body is still undiminished, she and Pei Youdao sit together on the two main seats in the main hall, sitting upright, solemn demeanor, no need to guess that this must be the main room.
The other two women sat on the left and the right on the two side positions that were further down, and Tang Xiu focused his main attention on these two women, because he knew that his mother-in-law, the Qin family, was only a maid in the Pei Mansion before, and it was impossible for him to sit in the position of the main room.
A thirty-six or seventeen-year-old on the left, with an average appearance, gorgeously dressed, her bare hands and cheeks were all white and tender, too nourishing, fat, after some diagnosis, Tang Xiu directly filtered her, and then aimed his eyes at the woman on the right.
The woman on the right is also in her thirties, but her clothes are much more plain, although they are also new, but the color and fabric of the clothes are far inferior to the previous two, and more importantly, the woman's hands are slender and rough, and her fingers are covered with a layer of calluses that have not faded.
That's her!
Tang Xiu raised his head and looked at Qin's face, he looked like he was thirty-five or sixteen years old, his face was slightly thinner, his face was wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, his appearance was not beautiful, but it was not ugly, he belonged to the kind of face that was attractive.
The Qin clan sat there looking a little restrained, his expression was a little nervous, and of course there was a joy and excitement that could not be hidden, and his eyes looking at Tang Xiu and Pei Cai'er were full of tenderness.
Mommy's taste.
This was Tang Xiu's first feeling after seeing the Qin family.
Gentle, warm, charitable, meek, this is the taste of Tang Xiu's mother.
Tang Xiu's parents died early in his previous life, and he grew up with his grandfather since he was a child, so since he can remember, he has never really felt his mother's care and care.
But at this moment of docking with Qin's gaze, from Qin's eyes full of love and pity, Tang Xiu really felt the taste of his mother, although Qin's love and pity were almost all directed at Pei Cai'er, but Tang Xiu's heart was still inexplicably moved.
This mother, I decided it!
Ignoring Pei Youdao and the other two women, Tang Xiu took Pei Cai'er's left hand and walked straight towards the Qin family.
Qin sat there, seeing that Tang Xiu and Pei Cai'er did not come forward to greet Pei Youdao, but walked directly towards her, at first they were still a little worried and restless, but as their daughter and son-in-law got closer and closer, all the scruples in their hearts were put aside by her.
Qin slowly stood up from the chair, looking at his daughter and son-in-law who were close in front of him with excitement on his face, and some tears unconsciously accumulated in the corners of his eyes.
Walking up to the Qin family, Tang Xiu let go of Pei Cai'er, stood directly opposite the Qin family, and in the stunned and puzzled of Pei Cai'er and everyone present, he fell to the ground with a thud, respectfully kowtowed to the Qin family three times, and said loudly: "Little son-in-law to meet my grandmother!" ”
When my uncle returned to the door, I didn't have to kowtow to greet him, and many times it was enough for my uncle to respectfully offer a cup of tea. But now, from the moment Tang Xiu saw the Qin family, he knew that he had to knock this head, because this woman had the smell of his mother.
"Good! Good! It's a good boy, it's cold on the ground, get up! ”
The Qin clan was also surprised, but she still eagerly bent over to help Tang Xiu up, and looked at Tang Xiu carefully.
