Chapter 358: The Conversation After the Family Dinner
Li Yu sat next to the old lady and kept whispering to the old lady, and the old lady was very concerned about him and poured her attention into it.
Li Yu naturally likes the old lady who cares about him very much, and while coping with the old lady's concern, he eats in the old lady's concerned gaze.
But in the midst of her busy schedule, Li Yu still quietly raised her eyes a few times to observe Zhen Jiabao, who was watching the performance with a childish face, and pursed her lips and smiled when she saw that she didn't eat much food but was very interested in the performance.
The old lady saw all of Li Yu's performances in her eyes, and a hint of clarity flashed in her old and wise eyes.
Li Yu stopped his chopsticks in the second half of the banquet, he was surrounded by the care and love of the old lady and other elders since the banquet began, but Li Yu was already a boy in his early twenties after all, so the only way for these elders to show kindness to him was to put vegetables in his bowl.
Although the banquets of large families do not practice the habit of serving vegetables to each other, they just instructed the maid who served next to him to add vegetables to Li Yu's bowl, which already made him a little unbearable, so he put down his chopsticks and waved his hand blushing in the middle of the meal.
"I really can't eat it."
Li Yu secretly glanced at Zhen Jiabao as he spoke, but seeing that Zhen Jiabao's eyes were still on the stage and he didn't give himself even a little, Li Yu's face was immediately a little disappointed.
The old lady saw all this in her eyes but didn't say anything, just interrupted other people's concern with a smile: "I know that you love the child, but this concern is not in a day or two, I think about leaving this child by my side to take care of it for a while, how can our family not get along in the future." ”
As soon as the old lady's words came out, everyone at the main table smiled and nodded, but Li Yu secretly glanced at Li Zhiming's expression, and saw that he did not show any dissatisfaction and was even a little flattered, so he relieved his heart.
The old lady joked with the others at the main table: "Look, such a big child has to look at his father's face after I keep it here for a few days, this temperament...... If you have a girl you like in the future, you won't suffer. ”
The old lady's words seemed to be said casually, and the people at the main table listened to the laughter, but Li Yu's face suddenly changed for a moment, and then she lowered her head silently.
But Zhen Jiabao's attention was only on the performance on the stage, and he didn't know anything about what they said at the main table and what was hidden in his heart.
……
Zhen Jiabao was very anxious to leave as soon as the banquet was over, but it didn't succeed - the old lady deliberately waited for a little time between the two shows and Zhen Jiabao sent an invitation - inviting her to talk with her after the banquet was over.
The old lady's expression was kind, Zhen Jiabao also saw the Qin family's head mother for the first time today, and she only knew that she had been talking about her daughter after she had Alzheimer's disease, so she was very sympathetic to this elderly mother.
Although Zhen Jiabao now knows about the old lady's recovery of memory, his sympathy continues, and he agrees to the old lady's invitation without saying a word.
Li Yu's expression was a little strange when she heard that the old lady was going to talk to Zhen Jiabao alone, but the old lady patted him with a smile.
"And you, the child, stay with me and don't go anywhere."
Li Yu's eyes rolled, but he didn't say anything, and nodded obediently.
Li Zhiming was poured meat and vegetables by those who came to toast, even if he had exercised the amount of alcohol in the business field, he still couldn't stand it, and he was supported by the Qin family's subordinates before the banquet was over.
Li Yu couldn't rest assured, and Li Zhiming must insist on following his subordinates
sent his father to the guest room, and the old lady saw that Zhen Jiabao was not interested in the banquet, so she simply took them away from the banquet.
There was also Qin Shan, the head of the family, on the left and right banquets, and there was nothing wrong.
Li Yu helped support Li Zhiming in front, Zhen Jiabao and the old lady walked slowly behind, although Zhen Jiabao and the old lady of the Qin family had never met before, but there was no sense of estrangement, and it was not abrupt for several people to walk together.
"Miss Zhen, I don't know how old you are this year?"
The old lady walked next to Zhen Jiabao with a smile and asked casually.
Zhen Jiabao regarded the old lady's inquiry as the most ordinary concern, and replied with a smile.
"I'm twenty-two, Grandma Qin."
The old lady didn't seem to expect Zhen Jiabao's age to be so young, and looked her up and down in surprise.
"I said, when I saw you today, I felt that something was wrong, it turned out to be about the same age as Xiaoyu - I heard about you from my son, and I thought that such a witty and brave girl must have a few years of work experience, but it turns out that you are still so young."
The old lady's eyes narrowed with a smile, and she couldn't hide her appreciation for Zhen Jiabao on her face.
"What a good boy, I wasn't as much as you when I was your age."
The old lady stopped at the door of the corridor leading to the guest room and looked at the backs of Li Zhiming's father and son, and sighed in her tone.
Zhen Jiabao didn't understand what the old lady meant by leaving her to say these words, Zhen Jiabao didn't know anything about the Qin family's previous affairs, and she didn't plan to inquire about anything, so she just dismissed her compliment.
"You're joking, I'm just a small insect carving skill, if it weren't for Mr. Qin's patience to listen to those few words, I wouldn't have been able to do anything."
Zhen Jiabao was humble while thinking in his heart that if Qin Shan didn't listen to his advice at that time, I am afraid that he and Li Zhiming, father and son, would have to find a way to appear in front of the old lady to play the emotional card.
But fortunately, it didn't develop to that point, Zhen Jiabao sighed in his heart, standing beside the old lady and watching Li Yu walk out after installing Li Zhiming in the guest room.
Although the old lady is already old, but because her legs and feet are still neat, she insists on not using crutches, Zhen Jiabao expected that this old lady must have been quite strong when she was young, and she felt even more good in her heart.
After Li Yu came out of Li Zhiming's guest room, he hurriedly trotted to the old lady's side, and naturally wrapped his arms around the old lady's arm to support her, and the old lady's face suddenly smiled.
"I think the three of us won't go back to the room first, it's better to walk first after eating, and go to my garden on the left and right, without anyone disturbing us."
The old lady was supported by Li Yu while discussing with Zhen Jiabao.
After Zhen Jiabao responded, the old lady bowed her head slowly, and Li Yu was inexplicably nervous next to her.
Although Li Yu and the old lady only met for the first time yesterday, the old lady has shown a good impression of Li Yu since they met, and after remembering the past, she has shown full love for him, so in Li Yu's mind, the old lady is a very loving old man.
But I don't know if it's his delusion, Li Yu always feels that the old lady's emotions are a little complicated when she follows the old lady, at least not as pure as herself.
Li Yu, who had a different idea in her heart, couldn't figure out the old lady's attitude, and she didn't think that the old lady knew the secret thoughts in her heart now, so she was just worried about Zhen Jiabao.
"Xiao Zhen - I can call you that
Is it? ”
The old lady couldn't see anything wrong on her face, and asked Zhen Jiabao for advice with kind eyebrows, and waited for Zhen Jiabao to nod before continuing to speak.
"Actually, yesterday I had already heard my son tell you about your identity, he said that you are both wise and brave, smart and clever, and when I saw you today, I knew that what he said was not half false, and it was a good match for the children of the Helian family."
The old lady came up and praised Zhen Jiabao, which made Zhen Jiabao a little confused.
The old lady ignored Zhen Jiabao's doubts, and didn't care about the trembling moment when she was supporting her grandson, and then continued.
"It's just that since you have such a great favor to my Qin family, as a person who has come over, I have to advise you, it is not so easy to gain a foothold in Helian's family."
The old lady seemed to have infinite worries about Zhen Jiabao's future, and even sighed slightly.
"It's not my old woman's nonsense, it's really that I know too well how much dirty things are in our family, if you don't have a reliable mother's family, it's really difficult to handle."
The old lady said that this is the point: "You are kind to my Qin family, we naturally want to know the grace to consider for you, if you don't dislike it, I think it's better to take advantage of you here, let you and my grandson recognize a brother and sister, when the time comes, if you have any difficulties, you can naturally use my Qin family's name - of course, my idea is definitely not to rely on Li Yu's child to pull a relationship for our Qin family, it's just a suggestion." ”
Li Yu listened to the old lady's flowing words beside her, and she was already so shocked that she didn't know what to say.
Although Zhen Jiabao politely rejected the old lady's suggestion to let her and Li Yu admit any sister and brother, she was still very grateful for her worry.
The old lady had no choice but to take the two of them back to her room, but at the gate of the courtyard, she met Qin Shan, who was anxiously looking for the old lady.
It turned out that after the family banquet, the old lady's relatives came to visit, and Qin Shan sent someone to invite but couldn't find the old lady's figure, so he ran over in person.
The old lady originally wanted to take Zhen Jiabao to her yard to have a good talk, but since her mother's family was here, it was naturally difficult for Zhen Jiabao to meet them together.
"Then Grandma Qin, then I'll go back first."
Zhen Jiabao saw that the old lady was a little hesitant on her face and took the initiative to say goodbye to them, although Qin Shan felt that Zhen Jiabao was a little relaxed when he said goodbye, but he didn't think much about it.
On the contrary, Li Yu, who had been supporting the old lady, had a particularly ugly face, which made Qin Shan look at it strangely several times.
"Then I ...... grandmother too"
Li Yu originally wanted to leave with Zhen Jiabao first, but was grabbed by the old lady.
"These are all your relatives, and they are all going to meet in the future, so it's better to let you get acquainted with them today, there are also people in my mother's family who are developing in S City, and there is no harm in you meeting them."
Although the old lady's tone was soft, she didn't allow Li Yu's objection, and took him by the hand and took the person to the courtyard, Li Yu watched Zhen Jiabao and them nod slightly and then turned around and left, his eyes almost followed Zhen Jiabao to leave.
The old lady hated the iron and couldn't look at Li Yu, and she was reluctant to fight, but if Li Yu was allowed to go on like this, it would not work, it would be a headache.
This kind of Li Yu inexplicably made the old lady suddenly remember Qin Sang, who had to be with Li Zhiming back then, even if she was dissatisfied, she could only slowly figure it out.
After all, Zhen Jiabao now has a family, and it is Helian Quan, who even the Qin family does not dare to provoke - the old lady does not think that Li Yu has the slightest possibility.
