"Do what?"

"Attend a banquet."

"Sorry, I've already made an appointment!" Ye Xiaoxiao said.

Mr. Xiao frowned and hung up the phone.

Thinking of something, he picked up the landline and dialed a number to go out: "Did you make an appointment with her?" ”

"Hey, has my son been released from the pigeons?" The voice on the other end of the phone was clearly gloating!

Xiao Jingyao could imagine someone's eyebrows fluttering, so he hung up the phone decisively before the ridiculing voice came again.

……

According to the usual habits, Tong Dongxin's birthday banquet is to invite many relatives and friends over. This matter has always been handled by the Queen Mother herself, and Xiao Jingyao never had to take it to heart.

It's just that I don't know when it started, the original intention of the banquet suddenly changed from a "birthday party" to a "prince draft" in disguise, and after he was fooled by his mother a few times, he thanked Bumin, and in the next few banquets, he always waited for the banquet to be almost over before he appeared meaningfully.

Tong Dongxin complained very much about this, saying that her son didn't give face, and she didn't understand her good intentions on her birthday, and Mr. Xiao has always only been the wind in his ears.

However, today, what does it mean that she invited Ye Xiaoxiao over early?

Mr. Xiao didn't want to participate in the "10,000 Blind Date Conference", but he didn't want Ye Xiaoxiao to be played by the cunning old fox.

With his fingertips tapping lightly on the armrest, he suddenly stood up from the boss's chair and grabbed his coat from the hanger.

Dorian was walking towards him with a document, and saw Xiao Jingyao striding in the direction of the elevator, and hurriedly caught up: "President, are you going out?" There was also an important meeting at four o'clock in the afternoon......"

"Tomorrow."

“…… Be! ”

Mr. Xiao's mysterious departure again caused gossip in the secretary's room, and the beauties whispered: "Eh, why did the president leave early?" The chairman's wife's birthday, he has never been so positive? ”

"What's even stranger is that she didn't let me choose a gift for my wife this time!"

"Does he have to choose for himself?"

……

Ye Xiaoxiao hung up Xiao Jingyao's phone and didn't feel anything wrong.

Originally, she had no obligation to accompany others to the banquet. After being busy for a while, I suddenly remembered that I hadn't prepared a gift for Aunt Tong's birthday, so I put aside the work at hand and went downstairs.

Walking to the parking lot, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw a familiar figure getting out of the car.

Her body shook, and she hurriedly dodged from the side of the body.

What is that guy doing here?

She quietly poked her head out from behind the car, and saw that Xiao Jingyao was standing next to the car, the well-tailored suit set off his upright figure, and he looked handsome and cold when making calls.

There was a bell in the bag, which startled Ye Xiaoxiao.

hurriedly turned on the bell to cut off the call, but suddenly heard the sound of steady footsteps coming to this end.

Woo, she's stupid! Isn't it okay to turn off the silence just now?

Ye Xiaoxiao had already learned his domineering kung fu, and he had no power to parry at all!

So, before he finds her, she has to ...... The enemy advances, I retreat!

Xiao Jingyao's footsteps finally stopped in front of a Buick, because the familiar ringtone he heard just now came from here, but ...... He looked at the empty car, his eyes moved slightly, and his long legs moved again......

Whew...... Let's go?

Ye Xiaoxiao quietly watched him get into the car and exhaled softly. I didn't expect it to be quite easy to pass.

She was a little happy and drove her own car, thinking about what to give as she went.

Well, that day, when I saw Aunt Tong go to her house to pick flowers, I felt very distressed when I saw the orchid flowers that had not been carefully taken care of for a few days, as if she was a flower lover.

So, she will send flowers, right?

It's just that flowers are not red for 100 days, and it doesn't seem good to send flowers that are easy to wither at Aunt Tong's age.

Ye Xiaoxiao thought about it and simply went to a boutique near the rental house.

The proprietress of the boutique is very familiar with her, and when she sees her coming, she greets her warmly, Ye Xiaoxiao asked her if she has any new products, she pointed to a pair of embroideries hanging on the wall and asked her, "How about that?" ”

The area of the embroidery is not large, it is the size of a desktop computer surface, embroidered is a few brightly colored hibiscus flowers, the petals outlined by the beautiful silk thread are lifelike, there are a few butterflies flying on the top, and the literal embroidery with colorful silk threads is "flowers bloom and rich".

The proprietress looked at her attentively and became proud.

While taking off the embroidery on the table, he introduced: "Miss Ye, don't look at these four words a little cheesy, but it is the best choice to give them to the elders, and you look at the embroidery, this is the best of the best!" And this backside, dangdangdang-"

Xiubao, the embroidery frame in her palm turned, only to see, on the back of the delicate embroidery hibiscus flower there are a few flowers in full bloom, the posture is the same as the front, you can see the ingenuity of the embroidery girl from the delicate stitches.

"It's ...... Double-sided embroidery? ”

"Well, double-sided embroidery is very collectible, how about it?"

"That's it!"

Ye Xiaoxiao paid happily. Carrying a beautiful bag out of the boutique.

It was still early, and thinking that the company still had something to deal with, she turned back again.

At six o'clock in the evening, she set off directly after coming out of the company, and there was a route record given by Tong Dongxin last time on the navigation, and halfway through, her aunt called, and she told people that there were still fifteen minutes to arrive.

"It's okay, it's okay, you drive carefully!"

Tong Dong hung up the phone happily, and looked back at a noble lady who came out of the car with a delicate-looking daughter, she greeted with a smile: "Mrs. Wang, you are here!" Yikes! It's hours, right? The eighteen changes in the female college, but they are getting more and more beautiful! ”

The girl received the compliment, bowed her head like a mimosa in shyness, and said a few words of blessing softly.

"Good boy." Tong Dong smiled and invited them into the house.

The architecture of the Xiao family adopts a fashionable European and American style, and in the accompaniment of jazz music, the hall is dressed in fragrant sideburns.

She looked at the warbler Yanyan in the hall with satisfaction, and a sly smile flashed in her eyes.

Xiao Xian walked over from the side, with a little doting on his expressionless face: "Aren't you afraid that the kid will hate you?" ”

"He dare!!" She pretended to grit her teeth sternly, and then laughed again: "I'm helping him, he should thank me when he goes back." Ah, it's almost time, I'll go out, you can help me say hello! ”

As he spoke, he went out happily.

Xiao Xian looked at her back and shook his head.

Hey, why is there no one in this room?

When Ye Xiaoxiao drove to the last address, the lights of the old house were on. However, she knocked on the door and shouted several times but no one came to open it.

Auntie won't go out, will she?

She thought about it, took out her mobile phone and was about to call Tong Dongxin, when suddenly, the door in the room rang softly and opened.

Looking up, Tong Dongxin, who was wearing a red cheongsam with dark patterns, stood at the door of the hut and beckoned to her with a smile.

In the dim light, the style of painting is a little out of place with the nobility of the woman.

"Auntie, happy birthday!"

Ye Xiaoxiao shook off the sense of disobedience that appeared in her heart and greeted her with a smile.

When I entered the house, I found that the house, which looked like an old house, was empty.

Except for some old furniture, which is suspected to be antique, there is no sign of human life in the house. She stood in the center of the hall, looked at by Tong Dongxin with a smile, and became cramped.

"Xiaoxiao, you won't dislike it, right?"

"Huh? What do you dislike? ”

Seeing Tong Dongxin come to the front and ask strange words, Ye Xiaoxiao came back to her senses for a second, thinking that she was asking about the bleakness of this family, she smiled and shook her head.

relieved: "Auntie, you are quite distinctive here, and it is not easy to find these houses with the atmosphere of the times in City A." ”

"Really?" Tong Dongxin listened, and there was a little more smug look on his face: "This is a major feature of my family!" Do you like it? ”

"I like it."

At first, Ye Xiaoxiao didn't understand the meaning of the word "feature", but later learned that the old house was the first pass for the Xiao family to test whether her daughter-in-law was qualified, and her empathetic "like" was a promise to sign a contract.

Sweat!

That's an afterword!

At this moment, she humbly gave the gift in her hand, and was just about to sit down on the chair next to her, when suddenly, Tong Dongxin shouted, startling Ye Xiaoxiao.

"Can't sit, can't sit!" They pulled her away from the antique chair.

Xiaoxiao thought that in order not to break these antique furniture, I was afraid that she would have to stand tonight to celebrate Aunt Tong's birthday. Who knows, Tong Dongxin suddenly came to her mysteriously and whispered, "Xiaoxiao, will I take you to a good place?" ”

"Huh?" On this dark and windy night, a woman wearing a red cheongsam is talking mysteriously in an old house.

Fortunately, Ye Xiaoxiao's courage is greater than that of the average person.

She nodded casually.

Seeing it, Tong Dongxin took her hand more and more mysteriously.

"Let's go to the back room!"

Back room?

The picture of brain supplementation is getting more and more terrifying?

Ye Xiaoxiao followed Tong Dongxin, and the old house of Hessesen was like an endless old tree hole in a mythical story. The cold wind gusted, making the trees on both sides rustle.

There was a faint sound of music coming from afar, it was the kind of song of the old Shanghai dance party.

Ye Xiaoxiao was not nervous, but Tong Dongxin suddenly said: "Don't be afraid, there are no ghosts in our family." Her heart couldn't help but flutter.

"Auntie, do you usually live alone?"

"No, and my old man. But he doesn't like to see people. ”

Ye Xiaoxiao's mind suddenly appeared in the kind of bald, hoarse voice of the horror movie The character picture that is too hoarse to come out scary. A cold wind blew, and she shivered.

"Where's your son?"

"That unfilial son, alas, don't mention it!"

With a cat meow, Ye Xiaoxiao's footsteps paused suddenly. A dim light hung over her pale face.
