Chapter 268: Chinese New Year's Eve Dinner
Although she was prepared, Guan Mingxin didn't expect that He Wanyi could do things to this point. She was wearing a burgundy dress, and walked into the door of Li's house with Li Zhanqing arm in arm, and then collided with He Wanyi.
He Wanyi, who was wearing a red fox fur, was holding Jiang Ruolan in her hand. Jiang Ruolan was obviously carefully dressed up, with exquisite makeup, wearing a tight bandeau bright red dress, and a white plush shawl on her shoulders.
Relatively speaking, Guan Mingxin is much more casual. After all, it was just a family reunion at home for a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, so she just put on light makeup, and the red dress was also a warm style, up to the ankles, because the cold wind blew when she got out of the car, and was forced to put on a navy blue down jacket by Li Zhanqing.
Round, she looks festive and casual, it really means that she wants temperature rather than demeanor.
Jiang Ruolan looked up and down, and a sneer flashed in her eyes. He Wanyi, however, obviously felt that Guan Mingxin didn't pay attention to this family banquet at all, and she couldn't be on the stage.
The moment Li Zhanqing saw Jiang Ruolan, his face turned cold. The Chinese New Year's Eve dinner has always been eaten together by the Li family, what does He Wanyi mean by bringing Jiang Ruolan this time?
When will Jiang Ruolan be regarded as a member of the Li family!
Before Li Zhanqing spoke out, He Wanyi hurriedly intercepted the words, "Ruolan's parents have gone abroad for something, and she is a little girl, and she is alone at home for the New Year, so I invited her to come over and have a meal together." ”
That sounds like a reasonable explanation. But if there is anything that needs to be lowered during the Chinese New Year, the parents will go out, and I want to know that this is just a reason for Jiang Ruolan to come here.
It's one thing to just know, it's another thing to be on the surface.
Li Zhanqing tightened his face and did not give any response.
Guan Mingxin had a decent smile on his face, holding Li Zhanqing's hand and smiling innocently and harmlessly, as if he couldn't feel the tension in the atmosphere at all, let alone the provocation of He Wanyi and Jiang Ruolan.
When no one responded, He Wanyi couldn't find a chance to make trouble, so she took someone in.
There are not many people in the Li family's family, and it can even be said that they are withered. In Li Zhanqing's father's generation, there were a total of five brothers, but Li Zhanqing's father was the appointed heir, so naturally he would not be much close to the other brothers.
He Wanyi only gave birth to Li Zhanqing's only son, and her stomach never moved again. Li's father is a man with a strong sense of ambition and a strong sense of responsibility, and he does not have any opinions on He Wanyi because he only has one son under his knees, and his private life is clear, so naturally there will be no messy illegitimate children.
The other side branches saw that there was only one son on the main family's side, and they were already eyeing each other. In addition, in the year when Li Zhanqing finished his graduate school abroad, Hu Lai, Li's father died in a plane crash, so you can imagine the impatience of those side branches.
When it was precarious, Li Zhanqing took over the company. Internal and external troubles, he has been under control, not only the company's business is thriving, but other side branches have been turned into quails.
Grandma Li and He Wanyi are naturally satisfied with this family. But in the same way, the two of them also have an inexplicable obsession with spreading branches and leaves, and they have always been eyeing Li Zhanqing's biological son.
Li Zhanqing brought Guan Mingxin back before, and Grandma Li liked it very much.
"Grandma." Seeing the white-haired Grandma Li sitting on the main seat, Guan Mingxin took the initiative to say hello, and her attitude was very respectful and docile.
Grandma Li lost her husband and then her son, and the blow she suffered can be imagined. After that, he lived in a simple house all the year round, prayed for his grandchildren with all his heart, and rarely had the opportunity to appear in front of people.
Seeing Guan Mingxin, she smiled happily and was kind and kind, "Xiaoxin, it's good to come, sit down quickly." ”
Seeing Guan Mingxin sit down with Li Zhanqing, her smile was even brighter. Guan Mingxin was wrapped in a dress with thick velvet and a thick down jacket, looking as festive as she wanted.
And most importantly......
Grandma Li's eyes fell on Guan Mingxin's round buttocks, and she almost laughed out loud. This look, it's a capable one!
Feeling Grandma Li's gaze, Guan Mingxin was embarrassed in her heart. Although she had been talking and laughing with Li Zhanqing before, her stomach had not moved until now, and she was a little weak-hearted.
On the other side, seeing Grandma Li's smiling face towards Guan Mingxin, He Wanyi was also a little anxious. She took Jiang Ruolan forward and explained the reason why Jiang Ruolan came here.
Jiang Ruolan hurriedly smiled, dignified, elegant and generous, "Grandma Li, Happy New Year." ”
Grandma Li glanced at her and smiled, "Okay, okay, sit down." ”
Seeing Jiang Ruolan wearing a tight skirt, she shook her head in her heart. This child's body is too shriveled, especially the buttocks, and there is no meat at first glance, and he can't give birth.
Tsk, it's still her granddaughter-in-law, she looks like a house full of children and grandchildren.
Thinking of this, she looked at Guan Mingxin and smiled with a wrinkled face.
It's just that this gaze makes Guan Mingxin always feel weird, and he can't help but feel embarrassed. But Jiang Ruolan and He Wanyi next to them saw the difference in Grandma Li's attitude, not to mention how annoyed they were.
The Li family pays attention to food and is silent, so a meal is carried out in the complex minds of several people.
Not to mention the rest, this five-star chef is still very good, and his skills are really good. The dishes are rich, the colors and flavors are complete, and the colors are festive and bright, just looking at them makes the mouth water.
Guan Mingxin is a good cook, and naturally has always preferred to eat. Seeing that these dishes are rare to see, I naturally ate with extra concentration, and the chopsticks under my hand did not stop.
In contrast, Jiang Ruolan was holding the shelf, and she had to control her diet and body, so the chopsticks moved meaningfully, and she didn't eat much at all.
Grandma Li, don't look old, but in the end, she followed the Li family's grandfather to fight the country, and these eyes are poisonous. She has always watched the actions of the two girls at the table, and her score of Guan Mingxin is getting higher and higher, how satisfied she is.
Being able to eat is a blessing, and being able to eat is a blessing! Look at the girl of the Jiang family, she doesn't eat as much as a cat, can she give birth to a baby with this body and bones? I'm afraid that it will be enough to give birth to one, how can I give them the branches and leaves of the Li family's family!
After the meal, the people came up and removed the leftovers, and several people moved to the living room together. Guan Mingxin noticed the smug eyes cast by Jiang Ruolan, and knew that it was now the official start of the big drama.
What to do after eating, offer a New Year's gift. There are too many articles that can be done on the gift, so it depends on whether it can please the two elders of the Li family.
