Chapter Twenty-Four: The Feast of the Hung Gate
The atmosphere in the room became a little condensed because of the visitor. In the silent room, there was only the "snort" sound of the purple clay pot boiling on the small stove. The steaming gas filled the room, making the faces of several people at the table a little misty and unreal. But Wen Hai's eyes were like sharp swords, stabbing directly at Huaxi's smoke.
"I heard that there is an extra second lady in the Wang family, but my son wants to see it." Wen Hai strode in, and after seeing Hua Xiyan's light face clearly, his brows furrowed slightly, "It turned out to be you!" β
"Second son Wen, fortunately!" Hua Xiyan slowly hooked her lips and said hello in a low tone.
Wen Hai's face was cold, he stared at Hua Xiyan for a long time, and said in a rather disdainful tone: "So it seems that you hurt my turtle, did you mean it?" β
Hua Xiyan raised her eyebrows, bent out an unbelievable arc, she looked at Wen Hai's deep eyes, and said with a smile: "Second son Wen is not a god when I am a god?" β
At that time, Wen Hai didn't know where it was, Hua Xi didn't even see his face, and now what is the turtle that deliberately hit him? Can you be reasonable?
"My brother said you did it on purpose, you did it on purpose, what so many messy excuses!" There was a crackling sound from the beaded curtain at the door, and it was a young woman striding in.
The woman walked up to Wen Hai, turned her head to look at him, opened her small mouth with red lipstick, and said proudly: "Second brother, it's just a woman under the fence, what do you need to say in person?" β
This means that Hua Xiyan is not a serious lady of the Wang family, so just find a reason to deal with it. They can't move the Wang family, and they can't move such a foreign girl?
"Who should I be, it turned out to be Miss Wen. It's not lipstick on your mouth today, are you? Why else does it stink so much? Wang Lan looked at the woman in front of her and said sarcastically.
Who is it, how can the people of their Wang family use them to point fingers in front of them?
Wen Mei turned her head to look at Wang Lan, and her eyes swept over the smoke of Huaxi for a moment, and then the initial disdain turned into full jealousy.
She has always been proud of her beauty, and the Wen family in Taiyuan is also calling for wind and rain in this Taiyuan, and she is hugging each other. Now that the Wang family has such a delicate beauty, will this be possible in the future?
"Miss Wang, it's better not for you to interfere in the matter between my brother and this woman, so as not to cause a commotion!" Wen Mei opened her mouth and looked at Wang Lan with a hint of warning.
Wang Lan sneered and put the quilt in his hand on the table: "This is interesting, Miss Wen came to speak for her brother, and we can't protect our sister anymore?" Such a domineering thing is really the consistent style of your Wen family! β
"My brother is my brother, how can he be the same as this woman!" Wen Mei pointed to Huaxi Yan and said with great disgust.
"Yes, it's not the same." Hua Xiyan nodded, his eyes were light and unwavering on Wen Mei's face, looking at her domineering face, and said leisurely, "At least I won't be obsessed with a matter that has been resolved, let alone conniving at my loved ones to make a big deal here." It's good that I'm from outside, but I'm now a member of the Wang family, and it's really incomprehensible that Miss Wen rushed over to fight for my Wang family in such a hurry. β
"How dare you talk to me like that?" Wen Mei has always been used to being high, who sees that she is not submissive? Where can you be swept away by such a woman who doesn't know where to pop up?
"Why wouldn't I dare? Miss Wen's status is good, and that is also in your Wen family, and it has nothing to do with my Wang family. Huaxi Yan's words are sonorous and unyielding. She knew that the Wang family had revealed her identity, so her words and deeds represented not herself, but the entire Wang family. In front of this pair of Wen people, naturally there can be no retreat.
"You...... You...... What a good upbringing! Wen Mei pointed to Huaxi Yan, muttered for a long time, and squeezed out such a sentence from between her teeth.
"Miss Wen is here, how dare I be high?" Hua Xiyan smiled at the corner of his lips, and returned the words without being humble or arrogant.
Wen Hai had been staring at Hua Xiyan quietly from the beginning, and he saw that this woman had a very gentle smile on her face, and she did not lose half of it because of Wen Mei's words, but the calmness and calmness in her eyes were extremely inconsistent with Wen Mei's face. If you want to delve into her emotions, you can see that the depths of her eyes are dense, dark and profound, making it difficult to see a single point of it.
Thinking of the last confrontation between himself and taking advantage of this woman, Wen Hai knew that this woman was not a good person, and it was no wonder that Wen Mei was blocked speechless.
"Why should Miss Wang Er be angry?" Wen Hai looked at Hua Xiyan and slowly spit out such a sentence, compared with Wen Mei's tense tone, I don't know how much quieter.
"The last incident is naturally in the past, and I will not pursue it again. I came here today just to invite Miss Wang Er to have a meal to express my best wishes to Miss Wang Er. β
"Brother!" Wen Mei turned her head and called Wen Hai disapprovingly. Thinking that the second brother Mo is not crazy, invite this woman to dinner? She deserves it too!
Wen Hai looked at Wen Mei with a heavy warning in his eyes. Wen Mei's mind turned, and she didn't say much for a moment.
There are so many ways to deal with this woman, so why argue with her here about her own worth?
"My sister just came, and I am still unfamiliar with Taiyuan, so I am afraid that I will not go to the appointment of the second son of Wen." Wang Qi glanced at Hua Xiyan and pushed the matter.
"It's just a meal. It just so happens that I can also tell Miss Wang Er about this Taiyuan matter, wouldn't I be happy? β
"I'm afraid that my poor etiquette will collide with the second son of Wen and affect the mood of the son, and that is a sin."
Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief. This time, I'm afraid it's a feast of Hongmen. Hua Xiyan naturally knows this truth very well, and Wen Hai is ruthless and insidious, she really doesn't want to have anything to do with him.
"Oh? Miss Wang Er excused herself in every possible way, is this looking down on my Wen family? Wen Hai's hand behind his back was slowly placed in front of him, rubbing a piece of green jade jade hanging from his waist.
At this point, Hua Xiyan knew that he had to go to the banquet today. If you refuse again, how much trouble it will be to be labeled as such a "hat that looks down on Wen's"!
The Wang family can naturally protect her, but she still doesn't want to have more rights and wrongs. She is naturally not stupid, and knows what the two different concepts of "the Wen family takes the initiative to find trouble" and she disrespects the Wen family. On the first day I went out, I formed a bond with the entire Wen family, and I don't want to live in the future!
"Since that's the case, then let's ask Second Prince Wen to lead the way!" Hua Xiyan's thoughts flipped over, and these words had already blurted out.
"Sister!"
"Second sister!"
Several calls sounded, and the three of them all looked at Hua Xiyan worriedly. They naturally know what kind of virtue Wen Hai is, this Huaxi Yan has not fought before, why is he still rushing up?
Hua Xiyan blinked and gave a soothing smile to several people.
Wang Qi naturally knew that Huaxi Yan was to calm things, so he also sipped his spring slightly, looked at Wen Haidao: "I heard that Yuebin Zhai has produced a dragon boat fish, tender and crispy, delicious, and those who have tasted it are full of praise, I don't know if I am lucky to go and taste one or two today?" β
Wen Haiyin's face showed a smile, and he said slowly: "It is naturally Wen's honor for the third prince to come to Yuebinzhai, pleaseββ"
Wang Qi bowed, and then winked at Hua Xiyan.
Hua Xiyan naturally knew that Wang Qi was looking for an excuse to go with him, so he also stood up with a light smile.
"Third brother, you can't leave me behind when you go to eat good things, and I just want to taste it." Wang Jin also stood up busily.
"Since you are all interested, then Wen will invite you to a banquet today, thank you for appreciating the light!"
Wen Hai said, turned around and walked out first.
Wen Mei threw a meaningful look at Hua Xiyan and walked out behind Wen Hai. The five-color gold embroidered silk skirt raised an extremely extravagant arc, and the golden silk ruby Bu Yao on her head made a crisp sound under the collision, which was cold and inspiring.
"After a while, my sister can do whatever she wants, don't be afraid of her!" Wang Lan pulled Huaxi cigarette and said in a clear voice.
Although Wang Lan is only one year older than Hua Xiyan, she is holding her hand so tightly now, and the warm temperature spreads from her palm to her limbs, which really looks like an eldest sister. Hua Xiyan smiled lightly: "Sister, don't worry, I will not lose the face of the palace!" β
Her voice was low and melodious, and there was not much momentum in it. But now she exudes an unattainable noble temperament, and she is really a young lady of a family. Wang Lan showed a sassy smile and walked out with Huaxi Yan.
Yue Bin Zhai is on the south street of this main street, and there is a distance from the north street where several people are now. The pedestrians on the street were all amazed when they saw a few people, thinking that the people of the Wang family and the Wen family, who were incompatible, how could they walk together so peacefully? What a spectacle!
Kelai Bureau is a very large restaurant, the vermilion wall color is very atmospheric, the wall is decorated with a little broken gold agate, under the sunlight, the illusion of a colorful circle of light, the golden light, extremely eye-catching.
A corner door was opened next to the restaurant, and from time to time I saw a luxurious carriage driving in. Outside the gate, there were ten handmaidens with good looks, looking at the passers-by with a smile. When someone enters, they will come up to them with great enthusiasm and take them to the reserved private room.
A few people walked forward, and the maidservants recognized that this was their own son-in-law, so they saluted shallowly, and when they saw Hua Xiyan and others, they were also very dignified, and their demeanor did not explore and overstep with half of their faces, which showed that they were very well trained.
It really deserves to be an imperial businessman, Hua Xiyan thought, and there was a little more praise in his eyes.
"Second son!" When a middle-aged woman saw Wen Hai coming in, she hurriedly came up and saluted, frowning and said, "Yaochi Pavilion has been booked. β
Wen Hai frowned: "Ordered out?" β
The middle-aged woman nodded, and said with a look of awe: "The person who came seems to have some origins, so ......"
"Ganoderma lucidum!" Wen Mei stepped forward, raised her golden eyelids, looked at the middle-aged woman, and said sharply, "Hasn't Yaochi Pavilion always been kept for our own family?" Who would dare to book this one at such a young age? β
"I didn't come from." A low and gentle voice came from behind a few people, and everyone turned their heads to see a man in white walking in slowly. His tone was obviously calm and calm, but it made Wen Mei's little face blush and white, which was extremely embarrassing.
