Chapter 268: Gathering Banquet
At the dinner table, it was very lively.
But the old lady and Xiao Yongjue talked the most, Yan and Xiao Changle interjected occasionally, while the others were silent, at most occasionally echoed two sentences.
Xiao Changge is the most non-existent here, at least in this group of Yan Yan Cuicui, she is like a person who is out of place, and she has nothing to say if she has no common topic with them.
"Grandma, where's my dad?"
Xiao Yongjue asked curiously.
"Your father is still with the emperor, don't you know that too many things have happened recently, and this wave of unsettled has risen again."
The old lady sighed.
"Mother, let's not talk about those things when we come back today."
Yan interrupted, and the old lady nodded.
"Yes, yes, let's not mention those things today, come, let's eat!"
Seeing that everyone picked up the chopsticks, Xiao Changge picked up the chopsticks.
Every year, only on Chinese New Year's Eve, when she has a reunion dinner, she can go to the main table to eat with everyone, which is very luxurious for her at that time, after all, she can see her father, and she can see the so-called sister and mother.
But now, instead of the lively scene, she would rather have eaten alone in the house.
"Sister Changge, why do you have so few words today? What's uncomfortable? ”
Xiao Yayan asked 'kindly', a gleam flashed in her eyes, and these words once again made those people fall on Xiao Changge.
Xiao Chang Singer was holding chopsticks, and she was about to eat something on the chopsticks, but because of Xiao Yayan's words, those people fell on her.
"Oh? Mo was very lively before the long song? ”
Xiao Yongjue asked half-jokingly, and Xiao Yayan smiled hesitantly.
"Brother Yongjue, you just came back, I don't know, but you will know later."
Xiao Yayan pretended to be mysterious, and Xiao Yongjue laughed twice.
And when this was mentioned, the people at the dinner table looked a little strange, and some even looked at Xiao Changge twice.
The atmosphere began to change when Xiao Changge was mentioned, and the old lady's face was a little ugly.
Hu Shi pushed Xiao Yayan, it was really a pot that was not opened, knowing that most of the people present did not like Xiao Changge and mentioned it.
Xiao Yayan ignored Hu's warning, she just wanted to see Xiao Changge embarrassment.
Xiao Wenya looked at Xiao Changge with a worried face, this has been aimed at Xiao Changge everywhere since she was just now, she is not smart, but she can also hear the meaning of these words.
"Okay."
Xiao Yongjue laughed.
"Grandma has been chattering before Brother Yongjue came back, and today I saw that Grandma and Brother Yongjue had a good conversation, how dare I disturb it? But how did the third sister see that I was uncomfortable? ”
Xiao Changge asked with a smile, his eyes reflecting Xiao Yayan's delicate face.
"Yan'er just asked casually, it's good that Sister Changge is not uncomfortable."
Xiao Yayan said generously, and she cared about Xiao Changge and said that she was coquettish to Xiao Yongjue.
The relationship seems to be very good, but no matter how good this is, it is not Xiao Yongjue's own sister, what's the use?
Hu's face changed, and he was a little ugly.
She looked at the old lady's face, and when she saw that the old lady was not as black as before, she was relieved.
"Come, mother, this is your favorite pork belly, Su Huai specially asked the cook to cut it into thin slices."
Yan pulled his sleeve with one hand and sandwiched the pork belly into the old lady's bowl with the other, and Xiao Yongjue looked at Yan in a blink of an eye.
"Mother, I also like to eat pork belly! After three years away from home, I miss our cook's craft. ”
As soon as she heard that Xiao Yongjue liked to eat meat, the old lady smiled and put meat on Xiao Yongjue.
I can't wait to move all the meat and vegetables on this table to Xiao Yongjue's bowl.
The atmosphere returned to its previous appearance, Xiao Changge was still silent, and the sound of the old lady and Xiao Yongjue laughing at the dinner table was still there.
It's just that Xiao Yongde is missing, and it is inevitable that there are some regrets.
It is estimated that Xiao Yongde should be busy with the assassin matter now, as well as Chu Mo......
I heard that his poison has been cured, and he just needs to rest well to heal.
And those people's targets don't seem to be the only ones Chu Mo, since those people dare to sneak into the arena, it proves that they know all the people who came to the paddock that day, but when Ye Ziyuan said that he was alive, his subordinates had murderous intentions towards her.
Thinking about it, Xiao Changge felt that she was also targeted by the queen.
Since the last chess game, she and Chu Yan have indeed gotten a little closer, so it is normal for the queen to be worried, after all, it is the Yan family that she wants to envelop, and she is also very optimistic about Yan Ruolin.
is not only the daughter of the Yan family, but even her father is Chu Yan's right-hand man, if he can marry Yan Ruolin, it will make Yan Li loyal to him, and now the queen is afraid, afraid that Yan Li will suddenly turn back.
But if Yan Ruolin becomes the crown princess, then Chu Yan's life and death will be linked to the Yan family.
If Chu Yan had the slightest mistake, the Yan family would not be happy.
At the end of the banquet, Xiao Yongjue helped the old lady to go to the Fulu Courtyard, Xiao Changle and Yan also followed, and the others also dispersed, including Xiao Changge.
"Sister Changge, are you okay?"
Xiao Wenya saw Xiao Changge and hurriedly caught up and asked, she also saw that they were targeting Xiao Changge everywhere in today's matter.
Even his own sisters are like this, how can Xiao Changge not feel cold in his heart?
However, Xiao Wenya didn't know that Xiao Changge had never treated them as sisters.
Xiao Changge raised his eyebrows, puzzled by what Xiao Wenya meant.
"Why did the fourth sister ask that? What is the matter with me? ”
This calm and calm appearance made Xiao Wenya stunned, and she was relieved to see that Xiao Changge didn't take them to heart about squeezing her.
"Nothing, nothing!"
Xiao Wenya smiled hesitantly, smiling very beautifully.
After getting close to Xiao Changge, she was more open than before, at least she was not bound by the so-called 'smile without teeth'.
"Is the fourth sister going to sit in the West Courtyard? It just so happened that the autumn chrysanthemum had recently opened, and it was brewed with tea ginseng, and it tasted very fragrant. ”
Xiao Changge said seductively, Xiao Wenya's eyes lit up and nodded.
Now that her mother allows her to associate with Xiao Changge, she can also go to the West Courtyard in a bright and bright way, and she doesn't have to hide.
Not far away, Xiao Yayan and Xiao Muran looked at this scene, and they felt particularly uncomfortable.
"It seems that the relationship between the fourth sister and that little slut is really good."
Xiao Yayan said dissatisfied, if Xiao Wenya stood by and watched all this, she would not say anything, but seeing that she was so close to Xiao Changge now, she knew that she had become Xiao Changge's lackey at a glance.
"I don't know what kind of ecstasy soup the demon girl poured into the fourth sister, not only the fourth sister, but even the third prince, the fourth prince, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince all revolve around her."
Xiao Mu added fuel to the fire, and Xiao Yayan felt angry in her heart.
She still didn't understand and couldn't understand why Xiao Changge could get into Chu Yan's eyes and she couldn't.
"Okay, sixth sister, don't talk about these sour words, don't forget that you still have Ming Fei."
Xiao Yayan's eyes flashed with a strange expression.
Seeing Xiao Muran's face flushed, she sneered in her heart.
It's also a shame that Xiao Wanqing is crazy, otherwise it would be possible for the twins to pinch each other.
This clear-eyed person can see that Ming Fei is not a good person, but he has won the love of the five or six ladies in the Xiao Mansion.
No one can see that the relationship between Xiao Wanqing and Ming Fei is not as simple as friends, and there is an ambiguity in their eyes and tone.
They all know it, they just don't want to break it.
It's good for them to live in a daydream, at least not to think about anything else.
"Third sister, Dye Er is sorry for you, you are several times better looking than the third sister who looks like the demon girl, and she is gentle and kind, why do you say those people are blind?"
Xiao Muran said regretfully, Xiao Yayan clenched her hand but did not refute Xiao Muran's words, because she also felt so.
"Third sister, the time for the prince to choose the crown princess is almost up, you have to seize the opportunity, in fact, you are not worse than the second sister, or even better than the second sister, but you have no backer, compared with the Yan family, the Hu family is a small thing, and your arms can't twist your thighs."
Xiao Muran said to herself, but when she saw Xiao Yayan, a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes.
Yes, how can their Hu family be compared to the Yan family?
The Hu family is about to decline, but the Yan family is thriving, plus there is a Yan Li.
"Okay, okay, okay, what if people hear it and misunderstand it? Don't talk nonsense anymore. ”
Xiao Yayan scolded, and you can see the expression on her face that she knows that she has taken everything Xiao Muran said to heart.
"Yes, yes, my sister won't say it anymore in the future, and I hope that the third sister won't be angry."
Xiao Muran covered her mouth and said apologetically.
"Third sister, I will also go back to the house first, but there is one sentence that Dye Er still has to say, if you don't fight, you will only be pressed on your head in this life."
Xiao Muran said unfathomably, and these words made Xiao Yayan's body tremble.
Then I saw Xiao Muran turn around, leaving Xiao Yayan alone.
Even though Xiao Yayan didn't admit it, she didn't know that these words had entered her heart.
Yes, where is she worse than Xiao Changle?
It's just that because of the Hu family's wrong decision, her mother became a second room, and if her grandfather had agreed to this family affair earlier, then things would have been different.
It's just that there is no regret medicine in this world, and it is useless for her to complain about the Hu family.
Xiao Muran said it well.
If you don't fight, you will only be pressed on your head.
"Yan'er, what are you thinking about standing here?"
Hu Shi saw his daughter standing here in a daze, walked up and asked, Xiao Yayan came back to his senses.
The dodge of his eyes was a little unnatural, and these fell in Hu's eyes.
"It's fine."
Xiao Yayan glanced at Hu Shi, only answered lightly and left.
Seeing the back of Xiao Yayan leaving, Hu Shi sighed, and was haunted by what Xiao Yayan said before, and even felt a little sorry for Xiao Yayan.
If she had been decisive at the beginning, she would not have let Xiao Yayan be pressed under those people today.
……
Intrauterine
It had been a day since Chu Mo woke up, and he looked at Xia Ruoyun who was sitting in front of him, and some words were stuck in his throat but he couldn't say them.
"Brother Mo, do you want to drink water? Yun'er pours it for you. ”
Seeing Chu Mo looking at her like this, Xia Ruoyun hurriedly smiled and asked, without waiting for Chu Mo to answer, she got up and poured water for him.
"Thank you."
Chu Mo took the water and said politely.
"Why does Brother Mo have to say these kind words to Yun'er? It's too much of a surprise to say that. ”
Xia Ruoyun smiled, but there was some bitterness in his smile.
His hands were intertwined, and he looked at Chu Mo with a pale face hesitantly.
