451 You don't look like someone who came to celebrate your birthday (1 more)
"When ......"
Song Lin was about to answer subconsciously, but as soon as he said a word, he was interrupted by Song Wanyue.
"You can find out very clearly, Gu Yi really didn't look like this before, but then he had acne, and it became like this. It doesn't seem to have much to do with you, though. β
I didn't expect her to steal the words, Qi Guogong was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "Of course it has nothing to do with me, I'm just curious, doesn't the Gu family have a doctor, how can you let your little fiancΓ© have acne scars?" β
Song Wanyue looked at him with a smile, "I see that you are not here to eat today, but to investigate our family, right?" I would like to ask if we have stolen or broken the law, and asked you to investigate us on such a big day as my maternal great-grandfather's birthday? β
Qi Guogong was not annoyed, and laughed again, "Old man, your great-granddaughter is amazing, I have nothing to say when I asked." β
The old gentleman also noticed that Qi Guogong's purpose today was not pure, and the smile on his face faded a little.
He defended Song Wanyue, "Yue'er is young and doesn't understand how to speak, and I also ask Grandpa Guo not to worry about her, come, come, come, drink, drink." β
The old gentleman raised his glass.
Qi Guogong also picked it up, drank it all, and the moment he raised his head, his eyes swept over all the people on the table.
"Three."
Waiting for the old gentleman to put down the wine glass, Song Wanyue stretched out three fingers at him.
The old gentleman didn't know why.
"I just made a promise to my grandmother that you will only drink three glasses at most."
The old gentleman looked at the empty wine glass and tried to discuss, "Yue'er......"
"Nope."
Song Wanyue shook her little head, "Drinking too much wine is not good for your health, and I still want my great-grandfather to live a long life." β
"Okay, good, my great-grandfather wants to live a long life, don't drink alcohol, drink tea."
The old gentleman put down the wine glass and motioned to his subordinates to change him with hot tea, and the old gentleman took a sip of it.
The smile on Qi Guogong's face couldn't be maintained. This phrase "drinking tea" means sending off guests to him, and he shouldn't be sitting here if he wants a little face.
"Old man, Mr. Wen is here."
Xu Liang reported at the door.
Qi Guogong let out a sigh.
The old gentleman frowned slightly, he used to think that Wen Zhong was a smart person, and he knew that he didn't like him, so he shouldn't move forward, it seemed that he was wrong.
"Let him in."
Xu Liang opened the door curtain, Wen Zhong walked in, bowed down when he entered the door, and looked respectful, "Wen Zhong wishes my grandfather good health and a long life." β
In front of so many people, the old gentleman didn't want to embarrass him, so he nodded slightly, "There are many guests today, you can help greet him outside." β
Xu Yan sat here drinking, but let him greet outside, who was near and who was far away, it was clear at a glance, but Wen Zhong was not only not jealous, but there was also a little joy in his voice, "Wen Zhong knows, I'll go out to say hello." β
"Hmm."
Wen Zhong retreated, and the moment he walked out, he glanced back at the house, and his eyes were full of cold chills.
Inside the house, Qi Guogong knew that it would be boring to stay any longer, so he got up, "Since the old gentleman can't drink, I won't join in the fun here anymore." β
"I'm really sorry that I can't go abroad."
"Where, where, I owe it to me."
"Yan'er, you send Grandpa Guo out and help your second uncle greet guests outside."
Xu Yan responded, got up, and Song Qi Guogong went out.
When the footsteps of the two disappeared in the courtyard, Song Wanyue got up and walked to the old gentleman's side, motioned to the next person to give her the wine jug, she filled the old gentleman's wine glass and put it back in front of the old gentleman, "There is one thing I didn't tell you the truth, that person should be in the Qi State Mansion." β
The old gentleman Huo Ran looked at her, "You mean ......?" β
Song Wanyue nodded, "He may have noticed it, so he was eager to grab one of our handles." β
"So what are you waiting for......
The most intolerable thing for the old gentleman is the person who cheats in his studies, not to mention that he is now replaced, which is a great cruelty for a real student.
"We don't know how they did it, we don't know where to start, the only way is for someone to get close to him and figure it out, but that's not possible."
"But if you don't find out the person, Song Si may be in danger in the future, after all, if he can harm once, he can harm a second time."
"They don't dare."
Ding Guogong's voice was deep, "Everyone knows that Song Si is Yao'er's fiancΓ©, and they have to weigh it." β
"It's because of this relationship that they will be even more unfavorable to Song Si, after all, because of what happened back then, your two mansions have always been incompatible."
"So, we can't be so passive, we have to find an opportunity to find people out."
Hearing that someone was going to be unfavorable to Song Si, Song Lin was very anxious, and wanted to interject several times, but he didn't know how to ask, so he quietly moved his body closer to Gu Yi and lowered his voice, "Yi'er, do you know who they said is unfavorable to Si'er?" β
Gu Yi shook his head "blankly", "I don't know." β
β¦β¦
Today's people are all officials, unlike ordinary people who are fist-fighting and noisy, and everyone does not drink too much except for greetings, so as not to drink too much and make a fool of themselves and become a joke of their colleagues.
Seeing that most of them put down their chopsticks and were about to get up, Mr. Er walked to the venue with a smile on his face, "Today is my father's birthday, thank you for coming, and the next thing is the last item of the day, eat cake." β
His voice fell, and everyone immediately began to discuss, on the one hand, they were surprised, eating cake on their birthday was still something that had never happened, and on the other hand, they were guessing what kind of cake to eat.
Mr. Two waved his hand, and first two burly subordinates carried a huge table, and then, the same four or five burly subordinates carried another thing, covered it with a red cloth, and couldn't see what it was, and gently placed it on the table.
The crowd craned their necks.
Mr. Two didn't open it immediately, and said in a loud voice, "Wait a minute, my father will come over soon." β
After the words fell, the old gentleman appeared in everyone's sight, beside him was Ding Guogong, behind him were Xu Yan and Song Lin, and then behind were Xu Yan, Song Wanyue and Gu Yi.
As for Mr. Big, I had long heard Mr. Er say that he was sick, and some officials even went to Mr. Big's side to visit, and saw with their own eyes that his breath was weak, his face was flushed, and his illness was not light.
The old gentleman walked to the table, lifted the red cloth with his own hands, and a huge cake box appeared in front of everyone.
The curiosity of the crowd was aroused at once.
Xu Bo took four scissors, one for the old man, one for the second gentleman, one for Xu Yan, and one for Xu Yan.
The old gentleman nodded, and the four of them slowly cut the box along the four sides in unison, and the huge cake was presented in front of everyone.
The courtyard was silent for a moment, and then someone exclaimed.
The old gentleman put down the scissors, and raised his voice with a full smile, "Everyone, this is the birthday cake that my great-granddaughter made for me, a total of seven layers, each layer represents an age group, which means to climb high step by step and live a long life." β
