Chapter 135: Agreeing to the Banquet
"Thank you, big brother!" After Huo Xiting saw that her goal was achieved, she immediately sent Huo Yanshen's thigh, turned around to play with preserved eggs, Huo Yanshen smiled, and turned around and walked out.
After walking out, Yang Chunyan saw Huo Yanshen and hurriedly spoke: "Xianggong, Boss Tang said that the Li Mansion will hold a banquet in a few days, and he said that he wants to invite us over......"
Yang Chunyan's expression was a little embarrassed, obviously feeling that Boss Tang's invitation was a bit excessive.
The people invited to the banquet in the Li Mansion must be some scholars, even if there are big merchants like Boss Tang, it is a very few, and they must be very familiar, so such a venue can also be lively.
But Yang Chunyan was a little hesitant to agree to Boss Tang, firstly, although Master Li lived in Yun County, he was not actually a local, and the guests invited were probably not locals, so even if Huo Yanshen and Yang Chunyan both passed, it would inevitably be embarrassing. Second, Yang Chunyan more or less knows in her heart that this society has always been heavy on literature and light on business, especially small businesses like the Huo family, even if Master Li treats everyone equally, it is inevitable that among the people in the past, there are some dogs who look down on people.
In fact, there is nothing to be looked down upon professionally, but Yang Chunyan thinks that he is not a generous person who can support the boat in the prime minister's belly, although contempt will not let him and make the Huo family have any substantial harm, but sometimes, inexplicable contempt will make people feel like swallowing a rat feces alive, and they don't know when they want to diaphragm in their hearts.
"Huo Dongjia, Mrs. Huo has been shirking all the time, Huo Dongjia, you can't do this!" Boss Tang looked at Huo Yanshen and said loudly.
Huo Yanshen frowned silently, he knew what Yang Chunyan was taking care of, and what Yang Chunyan was taking care of was also what Huo Yanshen wanted to take care of, so looking at Boss Tang's expression, he was a little embarrassed.
At this time, Master Li, who had been eating tea silently on the side, suddenly opened his mouth and said lightly to Yang Chunyan:
"Mrs. Huo of the Huo Dong family relaxes, the days that have passed are just my classmates who were close to me before, and they are even more upright, they are all real righteous gentlemen, and they will never give birth to anything that will poke people's backbones in the back."
When Master Li saw Yang Chunyan's expression change, he knew that he had guessed, and then said:
"Besides, I have a great relationship with Brother Tang, and since this time it is a family banquet to welcome him, it is natural to invite a lot of big businessmen, and when the time comes, ......"
Boss Li stopped abruptly at this point, and looked at Yang Chunyan meaningfully, he felt that Yang Chunyan was a smart and transparent person, although Yang Chunyan didn't speak much today, but Master Li saw the intelligence and wisdom in Yang Chunyan's eyes.
Sure enough, after Yang Chunyan heard Master Li's words, her eyes immediately lit up, she walked up to Huo Yanshen, gently pulled the corner of Huo Yanshen's clothes, and signaled Huo Yanshen not to shirk first.
"Since that's the case, then thank you Master Li and Donald for the invitation, and when that day comes, we will definitely pass!"
Huo Yan glanced at Yang Chunyan incredulously, but didn't ask anything on the spot.
"That's good, since we've decided, you two must come over that day!" Boss Tang saw Yang Chunyan nodding in agreement, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said.
The four of them talked for a while, and the Li Mansion sent someone to pick up Master Li and Boss Tang to go back, Huo Yanshen and Yang Chun sent the two people into the carriage, and after seeing the carriage go a long way, they turned around and prepared to go back to the courtyard.
Huo Yanshen finally couldn't help it, he looked at Yang Chunyan's side face and spoke:
"Lady, I also know what you were worried about at first, so I was ready to open my mouth to reject Boss Tang, why did you agree later?"
Yang Chunyan heard Huo Yanshen say that he knew what was on his mind, and his face burned slightly, but his expression still didn't change: "Since you can guess my mind so easily, then you tell me, why did I agree later?" ”
Huo Yanshen was stunned for a moment, just looked at Yang Chunyan, but stopped talking.
Yang Chunyan smiled, put away the snacks on the table, and continued: "If you don't consider my feelings, then do you plan to go over?" ”
"This ......" Huo Yanshen's words suddenly became stumbling, and under Yang Chunyan's gaze, Huo Yanshen spoke: "Naturally, I want to go, there are so many businessmen in the past that day, even if there are no real nobles, there is always nothing wrong with making more friends!" ”
Yang Chunyan smiled: "Look, if you say you can guess what is in my heart, then I can also guess what you are thinking." ”
Huo Yanshen suddenly realized after hearing this: "It turns out that the lady thought of going with me, lady, you are so smart." ”
Huo Yanshen raised his hand and scratched the back of his head, Yang Chunyan raised his hand at this time and looked at Huo Yanshen, who was smiling so gently in front of him, that his heartbeat suddenly missed half a beat.
I don't know how long Yang Chunyan looked at Huo Yanshen with a tea set in his hand, Huo Yanshen was also a little embarrassed by Yang Chunyan, but he knew that he was a man, and some things could not be held back because of embarrassment or other reasons.
Thinking of this, Huo Yanshen took a step towards Yang Chunyan, Yang Chunyan subconsciously wanted to take a step back, but the soles of her feet were like nails, making her unable to move.
The two of them looked at each other, Huo Yanshen raised his hand and gently lifted Yang Chunyan's chin, and just as he was about to speak, Huo Xiting walked in:
"Brother! Sister-in-law, I want to take the preserved egg out for a walk and watch it...... Brother, sister-in-law, what are you two doing? ”
Before Huo Xiting finished speaking, she saw Yang Chunyan and Huo Yanshen facing each other, tilted her head, and asked puzzledly.
Huo Yanshen hurriedly withdrew his hand, and Yang Chunyan also subconsciously turned around, facing the wall, her cheeks crimson.
"Don't you have any homework left in the school?" Huo Yan glared at his sister-in-law, and asked dissatisfiedly, this Huo Xiting, if you don't come sooner or later, you just come here at this time!
Huo Xiting pouted: "The homework has been done!" Brother, just now you promised, saying that after the distinguished guests left, you would let me walk around with preserved eggs! ”
When Huo Xiting said this, her eyes suddenly looked at Yang Chunyan, who was facing away from her, and asked Yang Chunyan for help7 coquettishly: "Sister-in-law! You give me a comment, and the eldest brother is too unreasonable! ”
Yang Chunyan raised her hand and brushed her broken hair a little flustered, and said: "Since your brother said it, then you can go over, but it's getting dark, you shouldn't stay outside for too long." ”
"Okay! It's still my sister-in-law who is reasonable! Huo Xiting glared at Huo Yanshen and said dissatisfiedly.
Huo Yanshen looked at Huo Xiting's bouncing appearance, sighed helplessly, he looked at Yang Chunyan again, and said: "Xiaoxi, this child has been spoiled by me, and she will have to be repaired in the future!" ”
After Huo Xiting's fuss, Yang Chunyan's fluttering heartbeat calmed down a lot, but she still didn't dare to raise her head to look at Huo Yanshen's face, she just lowered her head to find something to do for herself, so as not to be embarrassed, but her mouth kept echoing:
"Well, indeed, she should be repaired."
The corners of Huo Yanshen's mouth hooked, he saw that Yang Chunyan even had his father-in-law's ears, and his Adam's apple couldn't help but move, he didn't stay here for a moment longer, casually looked for something, turned around and walked out.
Huo Xiting walked on the street with the preserved eggs, although she was not very wary of the preserved eggs, but the last time, Huo Xiting more or less still got a lot of lessons, so no matter where she went, Huo Xiting held on to the rope in her hand tightly, so as not to hurt the preserved eggs again.
Just when Huo Xiting was about to take out her purse to buy you a sugar gourd, a figure suddenly flashed in front of Huo Xiting, Huo Xiting subconsciously covered her sugar gourd and purse, but she didn't expect that the figure was not interested in what sugar gourd and copper plate, she just squatted in front of the preserved egg, looking at the preserved egg with a wistful face.
"What, this young lady, what are you doing here?" Huo Xiting was a little blindsided, she raised her hand and gently patted the figure on the shoulder, and asked.
The figure turned his head to look at Huo Xiting, and Huo Xiting was suddenly frightened: "Tang, Miss Tang!" ”
The figure is none other than Tang Wan.
Tang Wan grinned at Huo Xiting and spoke: "Last time I went to your house, your sister-in-law didn't say that there was still a potential danger to preserved eggs, so I was not allowed to approach, but now it seems that she is actually framing me?" ”
Huo Xiting hurriedly waved her hand: "Can't, can't!" My sister-in-law doesn't lie! It's just that today I begged my eldest brother, and my eldest brother agreed to pat me and pull out the preserved eggs. ”
"I'm kidding, Miss Konishi, don't be too nervous." Tang Wan stuck out her tongue and spoke. She saw the sugar gourd in Huo Xiting's hand, raised her finger and pointed at Huo Xiting's sugar gourd: "Do you like to eat?" ”
"Hmm." Huo Xiting nodded, when she was in class in the Li Mansion Academy before, Huo Xiting never thought that she would talk to Tang Wan one day!
"Miss Tang, do you eat this?" Huo Xiting held back the bleeding in her heart, raised her hand and handed over the sugar gourd.
Tang Wan looked at Huo Xiting's wrinkled face, she couldn't help it, stepped forward, and gently twisted Huo Xiting's little face: "You eat it yourself, if you like to eat this, I will go back and invite you to go to Li Mansion to play, not to mention anything else, the small kitchen in my yard, there is an aunt in the small kitchen who is from the north and can make sugar gourds, I am sometimes greedy, this aunt will make sugar gourds for me to eat, not I blow them, I have eaten the sugar gourd, the best sugar gourd!" ”
After listening to Tang Wan's words, Huo Xiting's saliva was about to flow out, she raised her hand and wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth, her eyes were full of anticipation.
"Really, Miss Tang?"
"Naturally." Tang Wan nodded violently and spoke.
