Chapter 65: Tradition and Inheritance
"It's time to eat!"
"What are you shouting? You're a nobleman! ”
"Whose business is it that I call my daughter?"
Listening to the noise coming from the house, Qing and Eula, who had already walked to the door, stopped and looked at each other helplessly.
"The kid is coming, you be quiet."
"I know, I know."
Inside, apparently, realized that their voices were a little loud, and continued to babble a few words to each other, and then gradually quieted down.
At this time, Eula pulled Qing and walked in slowly, looking at her parents who were already sitting at the front of the long table, and sat on the other side of the farthest distance with Qing.
Looking at Eula and Qing's movements, her mother raised her hand and patted the position next to her, and chuckled: "There are no outsiders, you don't have to abide by so many etiquette, just sit down, I haven't talked to you for a long time." ”
Looking up at her mother's movements, Eula, who had just sat down, couldn't help but be stunned, glanced at her father with some interest, and then looked at Qing next to her.
Looking at Eula's hesitant eyes, Qing smiled lightly and grabbed Eula's little hand again, stood up and said, "Auntie said so, let's sit down." ”
There were still some Eula who didn't react, and Qing was pulled directly to sit next to her mother, watching her mother keep picking up vegetables for herself, and she was a little silent for a while.
Mother naturally knew Eula's character, looked at Eula's appearance and smiled lightly, looked at Qing who was sitting on the other side of Eula, and asked, "Mr. Qing is our great hero of Mondstadt, and we are all a little surprised to be a guest at home this time." ”
Holding a knife and fork that he didn't know how to use, Qing replied with a smile, "I'm good friends with Eula, and it's my honor to be here with her." Also, uncles and aunts, just call me Qing. ”
"In that case, I'll tell you to clear it."
The father, who was sitting in the main seat, took over the topic, ignoring his wife's outstretched hand and secretly patting him on the leg twice, and continued with some hostility: "You should know the position and situation of my Lawrence family in Mondstadt, we hate heroes the most, and those who follow heroes hate us the most. ”
Listening to her father's words, Eula, who was eating, couldn't help but raise her head, looked at her father, and was about to say something, but suddenly felt Qing reach out and gently pat her arm, and then lowered her head and continued to eat.
Looking at Eula's movements, her parents couldn't help but be stunned, they knew Eula very well enough, when had such an extremely stubborn girl ever been so well-behaved?
"I'm not a hero, and the world isn't black and white."
Putting down the knife and fork in his hand, he looked at Eula's parents, and asked: "Tradition lies in conservatism, inheritance lies in innovation, what does my uncle think there is to hesitate in the choice between tradition and inheritance?" ”
"What is there to hesitate ......"
Eula's father couldn't help laughing, then raised his head to look at the family crest hanging on the wall in front of him, and continued: "Fairy tales like heroes defeating evil dragons are indeed interesting, but everything always needs some villain as a spice, and the Lawrence family has played this role for a long time, although we are even proud of it. ”
Qing could feel Eula's father's heart thorough, and he also glanced at the family crest hanging on the wall, and said, "In the blink of an eye, it is thousands of years, and there is always something to be left behind." ”
"Perhaps."
Slowly retracting his gaze, Eula's father looked at Qing next to him again, and said with interest: "I talked to you for a few words, but it always gave me the illusion that it was like an invitation to an old man who was much older than me." ”
Looking at Eula's father's strange expression, Qing couldn't help laughing, and said, "I'm only eighteen, and my uncle is really joking." ”
Hearing Qing say that he was only eighteen, Eula, who was still eating, pouted casually, and then suddenly caught a glimpse of his mother's doting gaze, and hurriedly continued to lower her head.
"So I can rest assured."
Eula's father touched the saffron-colored tablecloth on the table, then slowly stood up, turned to the outside and said, "They will come back in the evening, you can take a walk around the house, I want to go out." ”
"You haven't finished eating, why don't you go now?"
Eula's mother on the side hurriedly put down the knife and fork in her hand, and smiled helplessly at Eula and Qing: "This old guy is a tough mouth, and he is exactly the same as Eula, okay, okay, praise you." ”
Looking at Eula's frowning little expression, Eula's mother waved her hand slightly, stood up and continued, "I'll go with him to have a look, we should come back at night." You haven't been home in a long time, so stay a little longer. ”
Qing looked at Eula's appearance that she wanted to say but couldn't say, and replied, "Thank you, Auntie." ”
"We don't need to say thank you."
Eula's mother, who heard this, couldn't help but smile even happier, raised her hand and stroked Eula's hair, turned around and walked away quickly.
Until they couldn't see Eula's mother anymore, Eula didn't say a word.
Putting the knife and fork in her hand on the plate, Eula pursed her lips in confusion, and then closed her eyes again, until she felt a warm embrace embracing her, which made her slowly open her eyes again, looking at Qing who was close at hand.
"This will always be our home, and your father and mother will always love you."
Before Eula could speak, Qing looked at the faint tears in her eyes, raised his hand and put the back of his hand on Eula's forehead, chuckled and said, "The difference is that next time, we will go home in the bright light, are you right?" ”
"Hmm."
Looking at Qing's smiling and gentle eyes, Eula's nose moved slightly, reached out and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with Qing's shoulder, and then turned around and said: "There are so many chili peppers in this dish today, which actually made a lady who has always been reserved cry." ”
Qing was stunned when he saw Eula's face changing speed, then glanced at his shoulders that were somewhat damaged by the war, and suddenly half-lay down on the chair, and moaned without illness: "Oops, this conscienceless tear infected me with a cold, and suddenly I felt uncomfortable all over my body, and I couldn't even eat." ”
Eula, who heard the voice, turned her head and said disdainfully: "Your acting skills are very unsuitable for acting." ”
"Oops......"
Qing Chao fell to the right, leaned on Eula's body, and his eyes were facing Eula's playful gaze, and continued: "Shouldn't the culprit feed me?" Seeing that I'm about to starve to death, how can I bear it......"
Raising his hand and giving Kiyoshi a slap, Eula replied viciously, "You should be hungry!" ”
