Chapter 61: The Han Family's Opposition
The servants began to serve the food one by one, and their professionalism made them barely make a sound, making the whole restaurant even more silent.
If it weren't for the occasional knife and fork accidentally touching the plate, you would hardly feel the atmosphere of the meal.
However, this is not the most embarrassing thing for Shi Nuannuan, what is more difficult for her to adapt to is the formal Western dining etiquette.
For example, there are as many as three sets of knives and forks at hand, which one is used when, and what should be used for eating, she doesn't know at all, so she can only pay attention to Han Munian next to her to see how he uses it, and then follow the example, and eat a Western meal, but there is no danger.
When she put down her coffee cup, she breathed a sigh of relief and thought to herself: I have finally escaped.
She thought she was hiding it well, but in fact, her every move had long been seen by Han Munian.
This time, he didn't think it through, and he didn't expect Zhong Minjia to arrange to eat Western food, which is still the most formal. Although he had planned to let her learn some etiquette in high society, because the two had not been together for a long time, and they were busy with their own things, this plan was shelved.
Seeing a trace of distress on her face, his heart was also lifted, and he couldn't help but worry about whether she could handle it.
However, seeing that she was still obediently staying by his side and trying to play the role of "girlfriend", he suddenly felt at ease, as if his heart had been stuffed with a ball of soft cotton, so he deliberately put full of movements, which allowed her to see more clearly and learn more naturally.
In addition to the two of them knowing, all this also fell into Han Xue's eyes.
After the meal, she and Zhong Minjia sat alone in the gazebo in the back garden and drank tea.
She looked around and saw that there was no servant, so she pretended to be unintentional and said: "Sister-in-law, I see that this little girl brought back by Mu Nian seems to don't understand anything, I can see it clearly when I sit opposite her just now, she doesn't even know the most basic dining etiquette, if he is taken out by Mu Nian one day, he is not the only one who is embarrassed." β
Zhong Minjia didn't see Shi Nuan's meal because of the angle of the position where she was sitting, and when she heard Han Xue say this, her brows furrowed unconsciously.
Of course she knew what Han Xue meant, it was nothing more than that if Shi Nuannuan continued to follow Han Munian's side and let others see something inappropriate, it would be the Han family who would lose face.
As soon as Han Xue saw that she listened, she said with added fuel and jealousy: "With our Han family's current status in Liangcheng, I'm afraid no one doesn't know my nephew, right?" Those entertainment reporters, financial reporters or something, what they usually like to shoot the most, if they are accidentally reported, how can they explain it? β
"Mu Nian, he has his own measure." Speaking of her son, Zhong Minjia's tone was full of pride and show-off.
Han Xue sighed disdainfully in her heart, and still showed great respect for this sister-in-law on her face: "Just because Mu Nian is too attention-grabbing, from childhood to adulthood, how many families have taken a fancy to him and want to marry the Han family, sister-in-law, you don't know." That's why we have to be more cautious, otherwise...... I'm afraid the tree is a big wind. β
Among the various families, there are not a few second ancestors and gentlemen who only know how to eat and drink extravagantly, they are the headlines of gossip magazines all the year round, either they open a room with this young model today or they will split their legs with that actor tomorrow, a diamond-level excellent male god like Han Munian who is out of the mud is absolutely rare, and it is also the first choice for a good son-in-law in the eyes of the heads of major families.
What's more, the status of the Han family in Liangcheng is thriving, and in the hands of Han Munian, he has become the head of the consortium, he is beautiful and rich, and he deserves to become the prince charming in the minds of thousands of celebrities.
This also made Zhong Minjia's vanity swell again and again, and she would never be able to see an ordinary daughter, not to mention Shi Nuannuan, who had a poor family background.
She understood that what Han Xue said to her was deliberate, but after thinking about it again, didn't this sound the alarm for herself? If her son is really interested in her, if she doesn't intervene now, I'm afraid it will be difficult to clean up in the future.
The more Zhong Minjia thought about it, the more wrong it became, and she couldn't drink the tea anymore, so she wanted to discuss it with Han Rong.
She kept walking into the front hall, and didn't see his figure all the way, so she asked a servant, and the servant said that she didn't see the eldest young master go out.
Zhong Minjia waved her hand to ask her to retreat, thinking that she was about in the study, so she walked to the second floor, but happened to meet Han Munian who came out of Mrs. Han's room, and she was still following Shi Nuannuan.
Zhong Minjia has to admit that if you put aside Shi Nuan's family background, she is indeed not bad, and she can be said to be very beautiful. The figure is also the convex of the convex and the concave of the concave. What's more, she is very young, and she is not inferior to Han Munian, her weakness can reflect his masculinity, it can be said that she is a pair of golden boys and girls, but it's a pity......
This thought only lingered in Zhong Minjia's mind for a moment, and she immediately emptied it, and reason made her take out the shelf of her mother and elders to suppress each other.
"Mu Nian, grandma needs to recuperate now, how can you keep bothering? What's more, it's time to change the medicine for the injuries on your body, and your body should have more snacks on your own, can you count on anyone to help you keep it in mind? When she said the last sentence, her eyes moved to Shi Nuan's face, and she unabashedly said it to her.
Although Shi Nuannuan was wronged, a good tutor let her know when to argue for herself and when to close her mouth and listen, so she didn't open her mouth at this time, just stood quietly, like an elegant and delicate lily, which fell in Zhong Minjia's eyes It was another meaning.
"What, Miss Shi thinks what I said is wrong?" Seeing that she was silent, Zhong Minjia asked deliberately.
"Auntie is right." She replied vaguely.
I just don't know if the answer is the previous or the latter.
Zhong Minjia really looked dissatisfied, and asked in a didactic tone: "You should be clear and clear when answering the elders' questions, haven't your parents taught you this basic politeness?" β
Then, as if she had just remembered, she raised her hand to cover her thin lips, and there was a hint of ridicule in her eyes: "I'm sorry, Miss Shi said that her parents died, right?" And it's no wonder...... Then let's just say I didn't ask anything. β
With such a contemptuous attitude to mention his deceased parents, Shi Nuannuan's face stiffened, and the hands hanging on both sides clenched slightly.
She was sad, sad, and angry, but she just bit her lip and endured.
Coupled with her head hanging slightly, Zhong Minjia naturally wouldn't notice her abnormality so carefully, and stood there and said to herself: "Having said that, it's not that I don't agree with some things, but that they are not suitable in the first place, so even if they are barely together, it is only temporary, and they will naturally be separated after a long time." Rather than having the heir of the Han family fall into the hands of others at that time, it would be better to break it off at the beginning. Miss Shi, what do you say? β
Her words were like sharp needles, piercing Shi Nuan's heart, making her already fair little face even whiter.
Square peg? Will they fall into the hands of others together? Is this saying that her identity is not worthy of Han Munian?
Shi Nuannuan didn't answer, because she didn't know how to face the humiliation of herself, it was better to remain silent like this, which was the best response to her.
After all, she has no say in whether she and Han Munian should break up or not, who let her already take more than one million from Han Munian?
Even the gold lord didn't speak, what could she do but shut up? She thought to herself a little self-deprecatingly.
Suddenly, she only felt that her hand was being held, and the warm and generous touch made her eyelashes tremble, and there was a moment of condensation.
She raised her head slightly, and glanced quickly at the person next to her with hesitant eyes, and when she noticed his look back, she looked away as if fleeing, but couldn't help but reddened the tips of her ears.
Well...... She saw his bland side face as always.
The big hand holding her hand tightened, Shi Nuannuan did not resist, and let him hold it.
Han Munian noticed her small and reddish ears, her heart softened, she retracted her gaze, looked at Zhong Minjia in front of her indifferently and said, "Mom, I'm still standing here, you persuade Nuan Nuan to break up with me, is it when I don't exist?" β
Zhong Minjia was dissatisfied with his interruption, and looked at him with disgust: "Mom said it for your own good." If you listen to me, you'll know I'm doing the right thing right now. Don't forget, you are the only heir of the Han family, how many people outside are paying attention to our Han family's every move. β
It seems that parents will say similar things, and it is really annoying to force decisions for them regardless of their wishes when everything is for their children.
If this matter is placed in another family today, those gentlemen will think carefully about the credit card limit in their pockets, and then they will compromise with their parents and choose to break up immediately.
After all, a woman is like a dress, and if she loses one, she can buy another one, right?
However, this matter fell on Han Munian, and the development of things may not be as smooth as his parents expected.
He tugged at the corners of his lips and said, "Mom, you've been saying this since I was two years old, and you haven't thought of changing it for so many years?" β
"Why ...... you kid" Zhong Minjia didn't expect him to say this sentence to block her, and she didn't know how to refute it for a while, but her chest was so angry that she fell together, as if she was brewing something to persuade him.
But Han Munian didn't think about continuing to listen, and then said: "I have already reported to my grandmother just now, I have other things to do with Nuan Nuan in the evening, so I won't eat dinner, and we will come back next weekend." β
After speaking, without waiting for Zhong Minjia to react, he directly took Shi Nuannuan's hand past her, turned around and went downstairs.
"Mu Nian!"
They had already walked down the stairs, and the two of them could still hear Zhong Minjia's angry voice upstairs.
The two walked through the living room, and when they were about to walk to the front hall, the door was suddenly opened, and Uncle Liang walked in with a person.
"Little master, are you leaving?" Seeing that the two of them looked like they were going out, Uncle Liang couldn't help but ask.
"Well, grandma has already said it, you have to worry more about the rest of the matter."
By "worrying," he didn't mean asking him to arrange dinner, but asking him to help pacify the family.
Especially when he was upstairs just now, he deliberately made Zhong Minjia angry.
"This ......" Uncle Liang hesitated for a moment, but nodded in response, turned sideways to give way, bowed slightly and said, "Yes, little master." β
At this time, a clear female voice interjected: "Mu Nian, why are you leaving when I just came?" β
The voice is very distinctive, Shi Nuannuan looked up, and she was a big beauty, relatively tall, about 1.7 meters tall, with a sexy figure and beautiful clothes. The delicate makeup on her face and the diamond jewelry on her body make her more elegant.
Shi Nuannuan didn't know her, but she felt that the person's eyebrows were somewhat similar to Han Xue, especially the thin lips, which were exactly the same as Han Xue. And these thin lips, the more Shi Nuan looks at it, the more familiar it feels.
She looked at the man next to her, and it dawned on herβhmm...... finally found out why it was familiar, because it was also very similar to Han Munian's lip shape.
Could it be that she is also a member of the Han family?
This is just speculation, Shi Nuannuan thought in her heart, and did not speak.
"Well, something." Han Munian's attitude has not changed, and he is still cold and indifferent.
However, the woman quickly noticed Shi Nuannuan, and her charming eyes opened slightly, and she could see that she was surprised, but she was well disguised: "...... is this young lady?" β
"My girlfriend."
