Chapter 264: Today's Biggest Winner
The storm has passed for the time being, and tonight's event is the most important Chinese New Year's Eve dinner of the year. It is inevitable that such an important matter will not be delayed, just like in the hall of the main house at this moment, everyone is sitting around a large exaggerated round table waiting for the opening of the table.
Seeing that it was about to be the time to start the banquet, there was still an empty seat on the round table, and Murong Qingtian, as the head of the Murong family, frowned and looked at Murong Lanxi: "Lanxi, where is Xiao Rui?" ”
Murong Lanxi looked at the vacant seat beside him, slightly embarrassed, her eldest son is the one who does not let her worry, he is always absent from every family gathering, this annual Chinese New Year's Eve dinner can not be hidden, but he always does not know to run to that corner and does not see anyone.
"Big brother, Xiao Rui should have gone to the toilet and will be back soon."
Immediately, Murong Lanxi glared at his second son, Su Chen, and whispered in his ear: "I didn't let you take a good look at your eldest brother, why didn't you see anyone again?" ”
Su Chen was also a little helpless: "Mom, you don't know my eldest brother yet, if you don't pay attention, you will disappear, how can I look at him." ”
Murong Lanxi was also speechless: "Okay, okay, you go and look for it, don't let the whole family wait for him alone." ”
Su Chen nodded, and quickly got up and left the table.
Murong Haotian couldn't help but ask, "Lanxi, Xiao Rui is so old now, and he still looks like this, you don't care about him well?" In the future, the Su family will also have to be inherited, so let him be outside and not do his business, what will the Su family do when the time comes? ”
Murong Lanxi sighed lightly: "This stinky boy is stubborn, I can't help it, he simply doesn't even go home now, I haven't seen him a few times this year." Lao Su only cares about himself now, and the two children don't ask, and they don't know if they are his own. ”
After speaking, Murong Lanxi also turned his head and glanced at Su Penghai, although Su Penghai is also the head of the Su family, but the Su family's background must not be as good as the Murong family, no matter how arrogant and domineering he is outside, every time he comes to the Murong family, he is like a wolf with a tail between his legs.
Su Penghai didn't say much, in fact, he has always been very open-minded about children's affairs, and hopes that children will do what they like, so he usually doesn't participate in too many opinions.
But unexpectedly, Murong Lanxi was a little unrelenting, and didn't say anything about it: "It stands to reason that Xiao Rui is already twenty-six years old, and it is time to join the company to help, now Xiao Chen is still 22 years old, and he has not graduated yet, as the boss, he should have some responsibilities of his own, so it is strange that Lao Su usually indulges him too much, in total, these two children, and it is not that the children can't take care of it." ”
Murong Lanxi kept chattering, even if Su Haipeng was usually swallowing his anger in Murong's house, but in front of so many people, Murong Lanxi didn't give him face like this, he really couldn't bear it.
"That's it! The children are so old, they all have their own ideas, don't always impose your own ideas on others, you usually do it at home, and now you are still like this in front of so many people, Have you ever considered the feelings of the children! ”
Murong Lanxi was suddenly unhappy, Su Haipeng suddenly replied, this is something she can't accept for a while, it may be that she was born with a sense of superiority that grew up from the Murong family, Su Haipeng can't accept it like this.
"Hey! What is your attitude? Usually you don't care about the children, but now you still give yourself reasons, which is related to the future of the children for a lifetime. ”
Everyone didn't want to participate in this kind of housework, and they didn't say anything when they saw the two arguing more and more.
But Murong Qingtian, as the head of the family, couldn't help but act, he frowned and shouted coldly: "Okay, go back to your housework, don't disturb everyone's interest here." ”
Murong Lanxi was silent in an instant, but he became more and more angry in his heart.
Su Haipeng didn't want to quarrel with her in the first place, but now he naturally stopped talking.
As soon as he fell into silence, Su Chen came back with Su Rui.
The moment Su Rui appeared, Murong Yunxi and Gong Yu couldn't help but be surprised, especially Murong Yunxi even exclaimed: "You? ”
Su Rui raised his eyes to look at the two, with a hint of apology on his face, and nodded slightly at the two.
Everyone was a little surprised to see that Su Rui seemed to know Gong Yu and Murong Yunxi, and they all cast inquiring glances at the three of them.
Murong Lanxi opened his mouth and asked, "Xiao Rui, do you know Xiao Xi?" ”
Without waiting for Su Rui to speak, Nian Nian opened his mouth and called sweetly: "Seventh uncle." ”
Su Rui chuckled and walked to Nian Nian's side, took out a red envelope from his arms, bent over and handed it to Nian Nian: "Nian Nian, come, uncle will give you a red envelope, I wish you healthy and happy growth in the new year." ”
A bright smile appeared on Nian Nian's little face, and he kissed Su Rui's face, and his crisp voice was extremely beautiful: "Thank you!" But isn't it Uncle Seven? How did you become an uncle? ”
Su Rui rubbed Niannian's little head, and turned his head to look at Gong Yu and Murong Yunxi: "I'm sorry, I haven't told you!" I'll explain it to you later when I have a chance! ”
Everyone looked at the interaction between Su Rui and Murong Yunxi's family, and suddenly became even more puzzled, this Su Rui usually has almost no contact with his family, and he has never been so close to any of his cousins, but it seems that he and Murong Yunxi's family seem to have a very unusual relationship.
Everyone's impression of Su Rui was immediately refreshed, it turned out that this Su Rui usually looked indifferent to everything at home, but when he came up, he hugged his thighs directly, and his mind was really not simple, it turned out that he had been holding back his big move quietly.
Everyone thought like this, even Murong Lanxi was no exception, her gaze changed when she looked at Su Rui, from the original hatred of iron not steel, to pleasing to the eye.
The heart was constantly jumping with joy: it turned out that his eldest son was silent, but he secretly managed to get the hottest.
Murong Yunxi is valued and favored by Murong Qingtian and Murong Ye, everyone sees it, especially whether the head of the Murong family will be Murong Ye in the future is difficult to say, so Murong Yunxi is now a hot figure in the Murong family, especially yesterday she showed her ability to make money, which made everyone re-understand her.
"Alright, now that everyone is here, let's get started!"
Murong Qingtian took out the majesty of the head of the family, glanced at the crowd, and suddenly everyone fell silent, and Su Rui also walked back to his place and sat down.
Murong Yunxi still looked at Su Rui slightly, he was still different from usual today.
Today he is dressed in a suit and leather shoes, and even his hair has been specially sorted with hair wax, which completely gives people a different feeling, and even the temperament on his body is different.
Nian Nian took the big red envelope given by Su Rui, her heart was beautiful, touching the thickness should be a lot of money, for ordinary children in the past, Nian Nian seemed to have never seen so much money, and she was so excited that she could hardly let go of the big red envelope.
Murong Yunxi looked at Nian Nian like this, and was suddenly a little speechless, how much this little girl has never seen money, she can be so happy.
"Come, Nian Nian Mommy will help you put it away first, it's not safe for children to hold so much money."
Nian Nian obediently handed the red envelope to Murong Yunxi, but a pair of big black eyes were still staring at the red envelope.
Seeing this, Murong Qingtian chuckled, took out a larger red envelope from his arms and handed it to Nian Nian: "Come, Nian Nian, Grandpa has also prepared a red envelope for you." ”
Nian Nian turned his eyes and saw the bigger red envelope, and suddenly his big eyes lit up again, and he threw himself into Murong Qingtian's arms with a smile: "Grandpa, Happy New Year, good life and good health, smile, everything goes well, good luck ......"
Nian Nian said no less than twenty auspicious words in a row, and that delicate and sweet little appearance simply amused Murong Qingtian.
Finally, Nian Nian finally finished with a sentence: "Wishing you prosperity, bring the red envelope!" After making an ending, a pair of small hands held it and handed it to Murong Qingtian, who smiled and put the red envelope in Niannian's palm.
Although the Murong family's annual Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is full of people, there have been no children, so there is no such scene, Nian Nian caused a burst of joy from everyone, and they all called Nian Nian to give him New Year's greetings, and then gave Nian Nian a big red envelope.
Nian Nian was not stage frightened, he walked around the big table with a bright little face, and there were too many red envelopes to count, becoming the biggest "winner" today.
Nian Nian finally returned to Murong Yunxi's side with a large stack of red envelopes, and smiled happily: "Mommy, you look at so many red envelopes, I have never received so many red envelopes." ”
Murong Yunxi scratched her little nose with some embarrassment, and was very speechless about her childlike words: "Okay, don't look like a little money fan, let people see jokes." ”
Murong Yunxi put away the red envelope and stood up with the cup: "Thank you all today!" This is the first time to celebrate the New Year with you, and I am very happy to be able to have so many relatives, and I hope to be able to truly become a family with you in the coming days. ”
After speaking, Murong Yunxi drank all the drinks in the cup, and his appearance was both bold and atmospheric.
But after all, it was a drink, and Murong Haotian said jokingly: "Xiaoxi, this Niannian's mouth is really with you, so sweet!" But your drink seems almost meaningless, doesn't it? There's not a lot of sincerity. ”
Murong Ye's eyes narrowed slightly, and an ice knife eye glanced over: "Oh, second uncle, how did you say this!" Xiaoxi doesn't have any alcohol left, her strength is like this, her intentions are sincere, in short, it's much stronger than the second uncle's 'sincerity', right? The second uncle's 'sincerity' is unblessed! ”
Everyone could hear what Murong Ye said, but such cold words still surprised everyone, and they looked at a few people for some reason.
