Chapter 92: Love Speaks Out Loud
"The old lady said that in the first year of the young lady's marriage, the whole family should have gathered for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, but she didn't want to disturb the interest of the two of you. Therefore, I specially asked the slave and maid to bring a few dishes of wine and food to add joy to you! ”
Mingyue said as she put a few delicate dishes on the table and took out a delicate mutton fat jade wine jug from the food box.
Xia Qian found that there was a plate of dumplings in the food box sent by Ming Yue, saying that the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was to eat reunion dumplings, and hurriedly took them out and put them on the table.
Huo Zun looked at the exquisite mutton fat jade wine jug, and his handsome face suddenly became complicated.
"I still have dozens of jars of hanging flower wine here, you can take this pot of wine back first, and leave the meal!" He looked at the jug of wine and said solemnly.
Mingyu hesitated, and said with a smile: "This is what the lord and the lady sent over, saying that this wine is produced in the East Wing, and the young lady is from Nankang, so she must have never drunk it before, so she specially asked the slave maid to send some over to taste!" ”
Huo Zun's handsome face was frosty, and after a moment of silence, he asked Mingyu, "My father also asked him?"
"Exactly!" Mingyu took out the wine as he spoke, and poured a glass for Huo Zun and Xia Qian each.
Xia Qian looked at the three fancy dumplings on the plate, and praised Mingyu with a smile: "The dumplings in the mother's bag are so beautiful, there are gold ingots, little rabbits, and two-color flowers!" ”
Mingyu was so happy that she couldn't stand up, and happily explained: "This dumpling is the stuffing chopped by the lady, but almost all of them are made by the slave and the lady...... It was too big, so I didn't bring it over. ”
Seeing Huo Zun's inexplicably sinking face and no longer speaking, Yu Nuan was stunned, and followed him to look at the mutton fat jade pot on the table.
Mingyu paused, smiled at Huo Zun, and said, "The lord and the lady have specially instructed me to wait here and go back after you and the young lady finish eating!" ”
"Dad has a heart, go back and thank him on my behalf!" Huo Zun looked at the mutton fat jade wine jug on the table and laughed coldly.
After Yu Nuan turned her head and gave you a look at Bai Bing, the two took the opportunity to leave.
Xia Qian smiled and handed a glass of osmanthus wine to Mingyu. "Let my mother bother, you go back and thank my mother for me. Tomorrow morning, I will go with Huo Zun to greet them! ”
After finishing speaking, Xia Qian lowered her head and looked at the delicate dumplings on the plate, completely ignoring the look on Huo Zun's face.
Seeing that Yu Nuan and Bai Bing got up to leave, she deliberately went back to the room to get three jars of osmanthus wine and gave one to each of the three maids present.
Mingyu took the wine and said with a happy smile: "The young lady is smart and handsome, and the lord and lady are more and more fond of you now!" ”
Xia Qian tasted a few dumplings, raised his head and glanced at Huo Zun, who was sitting there stiffly, only then did he notice the displeasure on his face.
"For the New Year, why do you suddenly have a straight face? This is the stuffing chopped by the mother herself, the dumplings made by Mingyu herself, they are delicious, you can also taste them! She smiled and put a few dumplings in his bowl.
He glanced at Mingyu, who was sitting not far away, looked at Xia Qian with a serious face, and asked gently, "You chased me on the street for a long time this afternoon, but what do you have to say?" ”
Xia Qian looked at him for a moment, and the dumplings that had not yet been handed to his lips slipped into the bowl.
She ran after him all the way, and she did have a stomach full of things to say, but didn't it all be clearly expressed in body language?
It's not enough to kiss, do you have to confess again?
Seeing Huo Zun staring at her seriously, Xia Qian's cheeks flushed.
In the afternoon, it was obvious that she couldn't wait to tell him, but when he asked at the moment, she couldn't speak?
"I," Xia Qian bit her thin lip lightly, and her clear and moist gaze met his smiling eyes, "I...... I want to tell you that I love you! ”
"Just because of this, you chased me down the street for a long time?"
She nodded earnestly.
He looked at her silently, his gaze moving to the mutton fat jade pot, and the fingers on his knees moved slightly.
