Chapter 536: Family Banquet
"It should. I can't go with you to celebrate the holiday with Uncle Bai and Aunt Chen, help me bring a good one. Shao Nanchu said.
"Good. You're here today, right? Is there something else? Bai Qiu sat down beside him, picked up the teapot and poured water for himself, and asked.
"Well, I'll take you out to dinner at noon." Shao Nanchu responded.
"Huh? Going out to eat? Why? Bai Qiuluo asked curiously.
"I can't spend the Mid-Autumn Festival together, but I want to have a meal with you and my mother, so I arranged to eat together at noon today." Shao Nanchu spoke frankly, his eyes soft.
Bai Qiu took a sip of water and almost didn't spit it out.
Although she and Sun Ruiying have not eaten together, she is also a little stressed to eat this kind of lunch similar to the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet together in advance.
But looking at the expectation in Shao Nanchu's eyes, Bai Qiuluo couldn't refuse, so he had to say, "Okay, then you wait for me to change my clothes." ”
Then, Bai Qiuluo went upstairs to wash up, changed his clothes, and then went downstairs.
When Shao Nanchu saw her, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't hide the amazement in his eyes.
On weekdays, Bai Qiuluo doesn't like to dress up, and more often than not, he is still a little plain, but today in order to go to the banquet, he wore a light blue waist-length skirt.
The upper undergarment is light pink, lined with a light-colored suspendron embroidered with white plum blossoms, lined with a light blue underskirt on the lower body, and the whole person looks pink and refreshing.
In addition, she is white and pure, and she looks very good-looking.
Bai Qiuluo walked up to him and looked up at him: "Is it good-looking?" ”
In fact, she usually wears white or light gray more, simple and plain.
However, after all, today is going to have dinner with Shao Nanchu's mother and his grandfather, Bai Qiuluo did not dare to slack off, and carefully selected this set of pink skirts, which would be more in line with her age.
Although she has lived for two lifetimes and is dozens of years old in her heart, her current body is only a teenager, and the pink point will be more pleasing.
"Beautiful." Shao Nanchu bowed, then took her hand and walked out the door.
"Let's go." At this time, Shao Nanchu had a feeling in his heart, a feeling that he wanted to put her on the bright side and let everyone know that she was his person.
Of course, this is obviously not possible at the moment.
But it doesn't matter, as long as his family knows that she is his, and that she is the one he must marry.
Bai Qiuluo felt the faint excitement in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I'll go over to eat, I have to prepare some gifts, except for my aunt and grandfather, but there are others?" ”
"Nope." Shao Nan responded at the beginning.
Originally, he wanted to call his second uncle, but unfortunately the matter between the second uncle and his mother had not yet been completed, and if he called the second uncle together, it would be somewhat embarrassing, so he only called his mother and his grandfather.
"Yue'er, bring the things I prepared for my aunt and the old general." Bai Qiuluo said to An Yue'er.
"Yes, girl." An Yue'er hurriedly responded.
Subsequently, Shao Nanchu took Bai Qiuluo all the way to a private room on the second floor of a restaurant.
Bai Qiuluo thought that they came over to order food first, but she didn't want to wait for her to arrive at the private room, Sun Ruiying and Sun Yao were already sitting inside and gossiping, waiting for them.
Bai Qiuluo was very embarrassed, hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, and said apologetically: "I should have come to wait for my aunt and the old general first, but I didn't want to let the two elders wait for me, it's not good for me." ”
"Silly girl, it's all your own family, just get together for a light meal, you don't need to be so polite." Sun Yao opened his mouth and said, smiling with his eyebrows.
Although he had long known that Shao Nanchu was very interested in Bai Qiuluo, because he had not yet married and could not spend the Mid-Autumn Festival together, he asked Shao Nanchu to specially arrange this meal, just to be able to have a reunion dinner with Bai Qiuluo, which also surprised Sun Yao slightly.
also understood that Bai Qiu's status in Shao Nan's heart was only higher than they thought.
Bai Qiuluo smiled slightly, and Sun Ruiying on the side beckoned to her: "Qiuluo come and sit here." ”
Bai Qiuluo hurriedly walked to her side when she heard this.
Sun Ruiying pulled her to sit down, and asked gently, "How are you doing lately?" ”
"Very good, thank you aunt for your concern. But Auntie, are you getting better? ”
"I'm already well, I haven't had a headache or brain fever these days." Sun Ruiying said with a smile.
"That's good." Bai Qiuluo responded with a smile and gossiped with Sun Ruiying.
On the other side, Shao Nanchu and Sun Yao were talking in a low voice.
Subsequently, Shao Nanchu also instructed the shopkeeper to prepare for the dish.
"Yue'er, bring the things." Bai Qiuluo was talking to Sun Ruiying, and suddenly spoke.
"Yes, girl." An Yue'er answered, and already walked over with the things in her hand.
"What, does the autumn girl still want to give a gift?" Sun Ruiying asked with a smile.
Bai Qiuluo responded with a smile, "It's not a courtesy, it's all small things I made myself." ”
Saying that, she had already stood up and took the wine jar that An Yue'er was holding in one hand.
She walked in front of Sun Yao and stopped, and said, "Old general, I heard Nan Chu say that you are good wine, this is a medicinal wine specially brewed by myself, two taels a day, it can be drunk for a long time, it has the effect of strengthening the body, and it will not hurt the body." Of course, at most two taels a day, don't be greedy. ”
When Sun Yao heard that she was giving wine, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand to take it, and said with a smile: "You kid has a heart, I like this." ”
"Don't be too cold, just don't get on the table." Bai Qiuluo smiled lowly.
"Hahaha, how can it be, this gift, it is about a mind, the gift you give is in line with my mind, whether it is expensive or not is secondary. Besides, I'm afraid it's not easy for you to brew this well-brewed medicinal wine! Sun Yao responded with a smile.
No matter what kind of herbs were used, at least this one point that Bai Qiuluo brewed with his own hands was enough to make him happy.
Bai Qiuluo smiled modestly and implicitly, and then said, "It's good if you like it." Remember what I said, at most two taels a day, if you are obedient and like to drink, I will give you a bubble when I turn back, if you are disobedient, then even if you like it, I will not give you a bubble when I turn back. ”
This was half disgust, half serious tone made Sun Yao glare.
In the end, he reluctantly compromised, "Okay, I'll listen to you, and promise not to be greedy." ”
Bai Qiuluo smiled and went to Chen Ping's side.
And Sun Yao glared at Shao Nanchu.
"Tell me honestly, did you deliberately let Qiuluo do this?
Shao Nanchu couldn't help but shout injustice: "Grandpa, you guessed wrong, I really didn't." Besides, it's a good thing that the autumn falls to give you a limited amount, lest you be greedy for a cup, turn around and get drunk and unconscious, and hurt your body and toss. ”
Sun Yao understood that what he said was right, so he had to snort sullenly.
On the other side, Bai Qiuluo continued her gift-giving business.
"Auntie, I call this thing a mask, and I also make it with medicinal herbs. After washing this night, avoid the eyes, ears, mouth and nose, apply it to the face, and wash it after a cup of tea, which can hydrate and whiten, and make the skin more crystal clear. ”
Sun Ruiying stretched out her hand to take it, her eyes full of surprise.
"Is there anything else in this world that has such an effect?"
"I researched it myself, and it works well." Bai Qiuluo grinned.
Sun Ruiying carefully observed her complexion, bowed slightly, and said: "I said that your face is white and tender, and you are very good-looking, and I want to ask you for some maintenance experience, it seems that you are using this thing now?" ”
"Yes, I tried it myself, so I used it for my aunt." Bai Qiuluo said with a smile.
"That's it, I'll laugh at this." Sun Ruiying is also welcome.
She was originally a beauty, but after all these years of hard work, her skin has long been dried up and aged to the point where she can't look good.
If Bai Qiuluo's mask really works wonders, then she must use it.
The so-called woman is the one who pleases herself, what woman doesn't want to have a beautiful face? Although her body was already riddled with holes and scars, there were clothes on her body to cover up, but her face was the most directly exposed.
If she can restore a little bit of her face to look and color, and look better on her face, she will also be happy.
In fact, Bai Qiuluo also prepared an ointment that could lighten the scar and wanted to give it to Sun Ruiying.
However, once the ointment is taken out, it will inevitably be reminiscent of the wound on Sun Ruiying's body, which is easy to arouse the wound in people's hearts.
And today is a good day for joy, Bai Qiuluo doesn't want to be ruined.
So she thought about giving the ointment to repair and fade the scars, and it was the same.
After Bai Qiuluo finished delivering the things, the dishes of the shopkeeper were also brought up.
"What do you like to eat in autumn, it's all a family, don't be polite." Sun Ruiying greeted her.
"Okay, you and your grandfather can eat too." Bai Qiuluo was busy.
A dinner was enjoyed by the guests and the hosts.
Although Bai Qiuluo and Shao Nanchu have not officially married, they have also been recognized by Sun Ruiying and Sun Yao.
After the meal, Sun Ruiying and Sun Yao returned to the General's Mansion, while Shao Nanchu sent Bai Qiu back to the hospital.
That night, Shao Nanchu stayed in the hospital.
With the experience of the previous time, Bai Qiu refused to let him sleep with her.
However, she couldn't resist Shao Nanchu's offensive after all, and after he repeatedly promised that he would never touch her, she reluctantly agreed.
Although I agreed, I was also as nervous as a wolf.
However, compared with the last time, this time Shao Nanchu was extraordinarily honest, holding her in his arms in a proper manner, and he didn't move a little.
So, Bai Qiuluo finally fell asleep in a tense state.
When she slept peacefully, Shao Nanchu opened her eyes and leaned on her lips and kissed her gently.
"Silly girl." Shao Nanchu said in a low voice, then hugged her and fell asleep contentedly.
The last time I made trouble with her, it was out of love, and this time with her, I just wanted to be alone with her for a while, after all, she was going to the suburbs of Beijing tomorrow, and she couldn't see each other for several days.
