Text Chapter 117: Dinner Party 1
Chapter 117
The three of them sat together, muttering a lot of interesting things about them, and some funny things they usually heard, and it was only a while, and there was no separation between the three of them, and they hit it off.
"It's not too early, so we'll go back first, and we'll come back when we have time." Lin Jia looked at the hour, she was talking so happily just now that she forgot the hour, stood up, pulled Lin Ling, who was still talking, and said to Mu Yan.
"It's okay, let's go back and have a good rest, it's been a day after running around." Mu Yan looked at the dusty appearance of the two people, nodded, and did not hold back too much, and said with concern.
Lin Ling's mouth was dry, and this time he didn't stay here stubbornly, but with a big smile, he looked at Mu Yan and said, "Sister Su, I will come to play with you next time, and you won't be annoyed by me when the time comes." ”
"Eun, okay, got it." Mu Yan stretched out his hand and rubbed Lin Ling's head, and said with a smile.
Out of Mu Yan's residence, Lin Jia and Lin Ling just walked out, wanting to go back to rest and prepare for the evening dinner, but as soon as they turned the corner, they saw Su Li who had just come out of the courtyard next to them.
"Let's go over there." Since he saw it, there was no reason to deliberately bypass it, Lin Jia's eyes were sharp, and when he saw Su Li's figure, he pulled Lin Ling beside him, and whispered.
Su Li originally just wanted to come out and take a look in the yard, but he didn't want to participate in the conversation of those young ladies, so he stayed in his yard and looked at the flowers and vines growing on the wall.
The voice behind him alarmed Su Li, who was in a daze. When he turned around, he saw the Lin sisters standing behind him, and there was a trace of trance, before he reacted and pulled out a smile.
"Why didn't you go out for a walk?" The relationship between Lin Jia and Su Li is not very good, but they can just say a few words, and they don't have any deep feelings, Lin Jia asked with a smile.
"No, I felt a little tired, so I stayed in the yard to rest, I didn't go out with them, and you two didn't go?" Su Li replied, unable to think of any topic, and after speaking, his eyes looked at the green leaves around him, and the veins on them were clearly visible.
"I didn't go out, I just walked around here casually, and I would like to wait a while to prepare for the dinner party in the evening." Lin Jia had a decent smile on her face, but she was a little more alienated.
Lin Ling, who has always been noisy, doesn't know if it's because she's tired or because of other reasons, but it's much quieter at this time, standing behind Lin Jia without being noisy, with her head down, and she can't see what her expression is.
"Then take a good rest, I'm very tired from traveling today, and it should be almost time for dinner after a little rest." Su Li pulled the corners of his mouth, he was really unfamiliar with the young lady of the Lin family in front of him, and he couldn't find anything else after he finished speaking.
"Well, then you can have a good rest." After being silent for a while, Lin Jia felt a little depressed in silence, and after finishing speaking, she said goodbye to Lin Ling with some embarrassment.
"Then let's go back." Lin Ling didn't have the strength to come, especially when he walked out of Su Li's yard just now, the air also felt aggrieved, and he pouted a little dissatisfied.
"You girl, you are the one who came out, and you are the one who is noisily going back now." Lin Jia didn't know what to say about her sister, and now Lin Ling was drooping her head, completely lacking the initial momentum just now.
"Isn't it just to meet Sister Su, otherwise I wouldn't be in such a hurry to come out and have a look, and I don't want to run around outside." Lin Ling pouted and said dissatisfied.
"Not yet, I'll be back later." Lin Jia thought more than Lin Ling, came to Su Meiren's side, and then went to Su Li's side, and Su Yuan's sister and brother did not go, whether they didn't go on purpose or not, if it reached their ears, it would not be good.
Pulling the very reluctant Lin Ling, he walked to the courtyard of Su Yuan's sister and brother, and waited quietly in the hall, the air was even more depressed, as if even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly, Lin Ling just lowered his head and played with his nails, and refused to say a word, while Lin Jia glanced at the surrounding furnishings and quickly lowered his head.
The maids outside the house welcomed the Lin family's sisters in, and one of them hurriedly ran in to inform Su Yuan, who was still in the house.
"Mother." The maid outside the door didn't dare to alarm the concubine in the house, knocked lightly on the door, and whispered outside the door.
"Come in." The wooden door was not locked, just when Su Qi came to find Su Yuan, the two of them sat in the house and didn't know what they were talking about, when they heard the sound of knocking on the door, Su Yuan said to the maid who knocked on the door.
"What's wrong?" Su Yuan frowned a little impatiently, and was a little dissatisfied with the interruption, and looked at the maid who was kneeling on the ground and asked.
"Outside the door are the two young ladies of the Lin family asking to see them." The maid was a little afraid of Su Yuan, listening to Su Yuan's not very good tone, her body trembled unconsciously, and her voice trembled a little, and said.
"Let's go, go out and have a look." Su Yuan's brows furrowed even tighter, she had never had any contact with the Lin sisters, so she came to see her at this time and said to Su Qi beside her.
"What are they doing here?" Su Qi's dissatisfaction was shown on his face, and he inked on the chair for a long time before he stood up and reluctantly followed Su Yuan out.
This time it was a concubine, not a gentle Su Mei, Lin Jia pulled Lin Ling's sleeve, stood up and saluted Su Yuan.
"Get up, sit down and talk." Su Yuan didn't have any feelings for Miss Lin, she had no emotional foundation to speak of, her chin was slightly raised, she sat on the chair on one side, and ordered the maid to put some pastries of different styles.
"Well, it's just that I'm idle and have nothing to do, let's come and see the concubine." The corners of Lin Jia's mouth pulled out a trace of arc, looking a little stiff.
The atmosphere at the table was even more awkward, Su Qi lowered his head, obviously not caring much about the Lin sisters, or there was no common topic at all. And Su Yuan's attitude was a little high, and she maintained her posture as a concubine at any time, and did not take the initiative to find something to say.
"Well, it's good to look at the weather today." After being silent for a long time, it seemed that only the sound of Su Qi moving restlessly in the chair remained, Su Yuan looked at the sunlight outside and said.
"Yes, that's good." Lin Jia also looked back at the scenery outside, it was still the same emerald green color, but it was the best tool to avoid embarrassment, nodded, whether it was sincere or fake, and responded.
The silence on the table returned, even quieter than when Su Li was there, no one could talk to anyone, the atmosphere seemed to have cooled to zero o'clock, and it seemed that a flower could be seen by staring at the table in front of him.
"Then let's go back first, and the concubine will have a good rest." Lin Jia laughed a few times, searched for everything, and couldn't think of a suitable topic, so she could only stand up and say goodbye to Su Yuan's sister and brother.
"Yes." Su Yuan had long felt that such an atmosphere was very embarrassing, and she couldn't find a suitable topic to say something, so she just heard Lin Jia say goodbye, and responded lightly.
As soon as he walked out of the courtyard, Lin Ling exhaled a few breaths, patted his chest, and said, "It's considered to be out, it's better to let me go out and take a walk." ”
"Shh Lin Jia obviously had some scruples, looked back at the courtyard behind him, frowned and said to Lin Ling beside him.
"It's okay, it's all a long way." Lin Ling also looked back at the courtyard that he came out of, and pouted, "It's okay, I can't hear it anyway." ”
"Alright, let's go back, hurry back and rest and start preparing for dinner." Lin Jia stopped Lin Ling from complaining, and hurriedly walked towards his own courtyard.
When the two of them returned to the courtyard, they didn't have much time to rest, and it was almost time for the dinner, so they could only sit down and take a short rest, and began to prepare in a panic.
"Sister, do you think this will work?" Lin Ling's energy seemed to never run out, and as soon as he returned to the yard, he regained his energy, and asked by Lin Jia's side on Twitter, holding different clothes in his hands, and the wooden boxes that he moved had been opened, and the things inside were turned into a mess.
"It's all good, it's all good." Lin Jia would look at the clothes Lin Ling had changed at the beginning, but again and again, his head was a little up, and he didn't have the heart to clean up the things under his hands, so he said a little perfunctorily.
"Sister, you don't look good, just perfunctory me." Lin Ling had just changed into the satin clothes he bought some time ago, with elegant flowers, looking much lighter, and said dissatisfied.
"I still think this body is more suitable for you." Lin Jia reluctantly put down the package in her hand, looked Lin Ling up and down, and then picked up a pale pink dress thrown on the bed next to her and said.
Lin Ling took the dress, stroked twice on his body, and then changed it behind the screen, "What about this?" ”
It seems that different clothes will have different foiling effects, Lin Jia's eyes are really good, looking at the clothes with some simple solid colors, but it is an unexpected set off Lin Ling's lively personality and snow-white skin.
"Well, this one is still for you." Lin Jia looked at the shirt that set off the graceful figure, plus a small shawl, which just matched perfectly, stepped forward, helped Lin Ling straighten his collar, and said in admiration.
"Really, let's do this one." Lin Ling grinned and a big smile bloomed at the corner of his mouth, standing in front of the bronze mirror, constantly shining, turning his body sideways, and then looking at other places, with a satisfied smile on his face.
"Then sister, let's try this one." Fortunately, the time is not very late, and there is still free time to be able to pack up clothes and the like, Lin Ling found a few clothes, kept gesturing on Lin Jia's body, and said while thinking with a frowning face.
