Qin Yue smiled and let Song Nanzhi help her to sit down beside Song Yuanhuai, Song Yuanhuai said with concern: "How is your body?" ”

"I took a nap after lunch, and now it's much better." Qin Yue smiled slightly, signaling the latter not to worry, Song Yuanhuai's face softened a little, glanced at Song Nanzhi, and still didn't say anything.

Song Nanzhi seemed to be used to it, sitting beside them, like an air man.

Old Madam Song seemed to think of something, and glanced at Sun Mei: "You go and see how the kitchen is prepared." ”

Sun Mei hurriedly said hello, got up and went to the kitchen.

Song Qizhang was tired of being beside Mrs. Song: "Grandma, you see that I have completed my task so well, is there any reward?" ”

Old Madam Song looked helpless when she heard this, and said: "Don't think I don't know, this project is not your credit alone, Nanzhi and Xinxin, as well as the eldest and second, have made a lot of efforts, don't want to take the credit on yourself." ”

Song Qizhang grinned and glanced at Song Weifeng, and quickly changed the topic.

Song Yuanhuai and Song Weifeng began to enter the hall, Zuo Xinxin will observe them quietly, Song Yuanhuai still ignores her as always, and Song Weifeng is also the same attitude as an elder.

It was Qin Yue who came down from upstairs, which was a little unexpected.

In Zuo Xinxin's opinion, Qin Yue is not a person who loves to be lively, even if she is in a good mental state, she can avoid it, this time, it is probably because of the failure of the project.

Otherwise, Zuo Xinxin couldn't think of any other reason.

Not long after, Sun Mei returned to the living room, saying that the kitchen had prepared a cloth meal, and asked everyone to move to the dining room.

Song Qizhang helped Mrs. Song to walk in front, Zuo Xinxin and Jiang Yucheng followed closely behind, and Song Yuanhuai's family walked behind.

Zuo Xinxin always felt a little uncomfortable behind her, and as soon as she turned her head, she collided with Qin Yue's gaze, the hatred on the latter's face had not had time to restrain it, and when she saw Zuo Xinxin looking over, she quickly looked away, as if she had just accidentally looked at each other.

Zuo Xinxin frowned, when Qin Yue went downstairs just now, his eyes looked at her as if he was nothing, and the meaning was unclear.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Yucheng sensed that something was wrong and asked her.

Zuo Xinxin shook her head: "It's okay." ”

For some reason, the uneasiness in her heart grew stronger, as if something had happened tonight.

As soon as he entered the restaurant, he smelled the tempting aroma, and Song Qizhang was surprised: "Grandma, are you going to eat a full banquet of Manchu and Han?" ”

The dining table is long and orderly, with white candles on the table, adding a warm and romantic atmosphere.

At this time, the servants were arranging the meal in an orderly manner, and at a cursory glance, there were already more than 20 dishes on the table that were not the same, and under Sun Mei's instructions, the servants went in and out, and new dishes were constantly on the table, and there was really a bit of the taste of the Manchu and Han full banquets.

Hearing Song Qizhang's words, Mrs. Song laughed: "Just you stinky boy with a poor mouth, okay, everyone sit down." ”

Everyone still sat down according to the eldest and youngest, and this time, Zuo Xinxin sat next to Sun Mei, that is, at the end, after all, she was the youngest among the female dependents.

Suddenly there was a rumbling outside,

Zuo Xinxin was frightened, so she heard Sun Mei smile and said, "Don't be nervous, it's thunder, go and close the curtains." ”

The last word is to command the servant.

When the heavy curtains were closed, the sound of the rain outside did not diminish at all, but symbolically separated the inside and outside.

Listening to the sound of rain like beans, Zuo Xinxin couldn't help frowning, she subconsciously glanced at Jiang Yucheng, who gave her a stable look, Zuo Xinxin took a deep breath and suppressed her uneasy emotions.

The maid was still serving, and everyone was not in a hurry to move the chopsticks, but only heard Mrs. Song sigh with emotion: "Calculate carefully, it has been four months since Xinxin returned to our Song family." ”

"yes, time flies." Sun Mei echoed with a smile and glanced at Zuo Xinxin, "I remember that when Xinxin first came, she was still a little restrained, but now she has completely integrated into our big family." ”

Old Madam Song nodded with a smile, raised the wine glass in front of her, and said, "Come, Xinxin." ”

The old lady raised her glass, and everyone followed suit, Song Weifeng's family had a smile on their faces, but Song Yuanhuai and the others seemed to be absent-minded.

"Thank you, old lady." Zuo Xinxin smiled, she still didn't call her grandmother, and Mrs. Song didn't mind, so she drank the wine in the cup in one gulp.

On the side, Sun Mei hurriedly persuaded: "Old lady, let's be happy, but we can't ignore our bodies." ”

As she spoke, she glanced at Song Qizhang: "Qi Zhang, pour a cup of tea for your grandmother." ”

Song Qizhang immediately did as he said, and Mrs. Song smiled and said, "In this whole family, you are the one who manages the most." ”

As soon as these words came out, Qin Yue's face paused, and Song Yuanhuai cast a concerned glance at her, who smiled slightly and signaled that he was fine.

Mrs. Song is right, Sun Mei runs to the old mansion if she has nothing to do, her body is not good, so she naturally can't be like her.

For so many years, Qin Yue has become accustomed to the old lady praising Sun Mei for her diligence and ability.

Listening to the old lady's words, Sun Mei waved her hand and said with a smile: "I'm just worried about some trivial things, if I encounter a big event, the old lady has to make an idea, this time Qi Zhang's work, I didn't help at all, it's better to be Xinxin." ”

"Yes, speaking of which, this project can go smoothly thanks to Xinxin and Mr. Jiang." Song Weifeng followed, rushed to Zuo Xinxin and Jiang Yucheng to pick up the wine glasses, and Qin Yue and Song Qizhang immediately followed.

"We are only providing some convenience, not helping, after all, cooperation is a win-win situation." Jiang Yucheng hooked his lips and smiled.

Zuo Xinxin smiled and nodded: "Yes, and I also learned a lot from it." ”

Zuo Xinxin and Song Weifeng looked at each other and smiled, as if they had reached some kind of consensus, and Song Yuanhuai on the side looked at it in his eyes, and his brows wrinkled unconsciously.

Seeing this scene, Mrs. Song's eyes flashed, and she said with a smile: "The family should be harmonious, Nanzhi, don't be discouraged, you were responsible for the previous projects, this time, you should give your younger brother a chance to perform." ”

After taking a seat, Song Nanzhi sat between Song Weifeng and Song Qizhang, no matter what he said, he was in a state of ignorance.

At this time, when he heard Mrs. Song mention it, he was stunned for a moment and subconsciously

Glancing at Song Yuanhuai, the latter didn't know what he was thinking and didn't notice his gaze.

Song Nanzhi nodded at this time and said, "Yes, Qi Zhang has done a good job this time and has improved a lot." ”

Seeing that he was absent-minded, Old Madam Song frowned slightly: "What's the matter, Nanzhi, are you not feeling well?" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes converged on him, and Song Yuanhuai and Qin Yue were no exception, but their eyes were more harsh, as if they were blaming Song Nanzhi for making the old lady quite unhappy at the family banquet.

Song Nanzhi hurriedly shook his head: "It's okay, I was thinking about things just now, and I lost my mind for a while." ”

"That's good, no matter how busy you are at work, you have to pay attention to your body." Old Madam Song nodded, and then changed her words, "But now it's a family banquet, everyone sits together and talks, don't think about work anymore, and when to do something, you should be clear." ”

Song Nanzhi hurriedly said: "Yes, I know, old lady." ”

When he said this, Old Madam Song didn't say anything else, but Qin Yue opened her mouth.

She glanced at Song Nanzhi and said, "Nanzhi, you just work too hard, like your younger brother to study, combine work and rest, don't take on everything alone, if you continue like this, your body will collapse sooner or later." ”

Song Nanzhi smiled slightly: "Okay, thank you mother for your concern, I will pay attention." ”

Everyone present heard that Qin Yue was insinuating that Song Qizhang was incapable and could only ask Zuo Xinxin for help, Song Weifeng and Qin Yue's face changed.

Sun Mei was not angry, so she choked back at the time: "Sister-in-law, why doesn't it sound right, Xinxin finally came back, she has the heart and ability, I asked Qi Zhang to take her more, and you can participate in any projects in the future, after all, it is a family, and the money you earn is not surnamed Song?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere became solemn.

Qin Yue sneered lightly and said, "I'm afraid it's only beneficial to you." ”

Sun Mei was suddenly unhappy: "Sister-in-law, don't forget, Nanzhi was responsible for those projects in the past, did we Qi Zhang say anything, no, this time Qi Zhang just took over a project, and my sister-in-law insinuated like this, which is too unreasonable." ”

She has always had sharp teeth and sharp mouths, and she made Qin Yue speechless with a back and forth.

Zuo Xinxin saw this scene in her eyes, and she had to admire Sun Mei's mouth, Qin Yue obviously couldn't say anything about her, no wonder she coaxed the old lady to be happy.

Song Yuanhuai was about to speak, when he heard Old Madam Song frowning: "Okay, okay, it's all a family, and I finally have the opportunity to sit and eat together, what kind of quarrel." ”

As soon as the old lady spoke, Qin Yue stopped talking, and Sun Mei immediately laughed: "What the old lady said is true, but it's no wonder that my sister-in-law said so, after all, Qi Zhang was able to successfully complete the project this time, and Xinxin has a lot of credit, and if there is any project in the future, Xinxin can also help Nanzhi more, which seems fair." ”

Hearing her mention it again, Qin Yue's face changed, but she didn't say anything.

And after listening to Sun Mei's words, Mrs. Song shook her head: "This time it is a last resort, forget it in the future, Xinxin has her own career and children, if the two cities run back and forth, she will not be able to bear it." ”

This sounds like it is for Zuo Xinxin's sake, but in fact, Mrs. Song does not agree with Zuo Xinxin's participation in the Song family's follow-up projects.

Although Mrs. Song didn't know the details, she still knew about what happened during this time. In order to win the Baba project in C City, the second child wooed Zuo Xinxin, and finally not only persuaded Zuo Xinxin to help Song Qizhang make a plan and make a report, but also signed a cooperation with Jiang Yucheng.

The three-seven-point contract, Mrs. Song naturally looked at it, the second child was not greedy enough, I am afraid that Zuo Xinxin will be maneuvering from it, and Jiang Yucheng will agree to cooperate.

The eldest and second have been fighting for so many years, and they were originally comparable, but now they were broken by the appearance of Zuo Xinxin, and seeing that the second child's power is gradually increasing, and the balance is beginning to tilt, Mrs. Song naturally will not agree to Zuo Xinxin's continued interference in the Song family's industry.

Old Madam Song is not a fool, she knows that Zuo Xinxin relied on Zhou Haisheng's help to enter the Song family's field of vision, plus Zuo Xinxin appeared suddenly, and helped Song Qizhang win the project in such a short time, her ability can be seen to be extraordinary. So although she accepted this granddaughter, she was suspicious of Zuo Xinxin's purpose of entering the Song family.

Because the current situation is very similar to the situation of the Song family more than 20 years ago, Mrs. Song will never tolerate the recurrence of the tragedy of that year.

She could leave Zuo Xinxin a fortune after her death, but she would never agree to let her continue to participate in the project.
