128 Birthday Banquet
"Lan Lao arrives." Old Man Lan did not sit in a wheelchair, he walked slowly with the support of Mulberry Leaves, followed by Lan Tianqin and Mulberry half a step behind him, and then Weizhou behind.
The little girl is well-behaved and cute, and the two young men are noble and handsome, such a combination is still very eye-catching.
Old Man Lan has a good reputation in the circle, and he is very concerned about his affairs.
I all know that he is paralyzed in bed, I didn't expect to come today, and I can walk on my own.
I couldn't help but look at surprise and curiosity.
Whether it was poisoning or detoxification, Old Man Lan did not announce it to the public, and the outside world only knew that he was sick and paralyzed.
The person behind it has not been caught yet, and Li Gan has been delayed because of the matter of Lao Sang's family, helping to investigate Sun Liang.
Originally, it was not good for Old Man Lan to appear in the public eye at this time, so that the people behind him would be vigilant, or make a trick again.
The old man also paid a lot for the Sang family.
"Old Blue, why are you here?" Mo Xunli is only a few years younger than Old Man Lan, and he is considered a peer.
The two have also been on the battlefield together, worked together, and can be regarded as colleagues, but also comrades in life and death.
The character and habits are very close, very chatty, and they are close friends.
Old Man Lan was sick, he went to see it several times, and saw his old friend lying on the hospital bed dying, Mo Xunli couldn't say how uncomfortable it was.
I didn't expect that after not seeing him for a while, his old friend turned out to be better and came to the banquet, how could he not be surprised.
Hurriedly walked towards Old Man Lan.
Mo Xunyi and his brother and Old Man Lan did not follow the same path, and there was no intersection in business.
But in private, it can be regarded as familiar, and it also follows Mo Xunli to usher in it.
The Mo brothers look very similar, and the age difference is not big, they look like twins.
He is more than 170 centimeters tall, fair-skinned, very young, and has a rounded body.
However, Mo Xunli went to the army, Mo Xunyi went into politics, the path is different, and the temperament is also different, one is resolute and the other is sleek.
Old Man Lan and Mo Xunli are familiar with each other, and they speak casually.
"Why, you're not welcome."
"Welcome, welcome, my brother can come, I am very welcome. Who are these two little comrades?"
Mo Xunli knew Lan Tianqin, and Lan Tianqin called someone when Mo Xunli looked over.
Old Man Lan patted Mulberry Ye's arm and introduced with a smile: "It's the pleasing junior in the family, and he brought it here to see the world, it's okay, right?"
"It's okay, if you can please my brother, you must be a well-behaved good boy, let's go inside, let's sit inside and talk slowly, I'm really surprised to see you coming, my body is better?"
Mo Xunli personally held Old Man Lan's other hand and led everyone in.
The old man smiled: "Old man, my body is not as good as before, but I am okay for the time being, I have a few years to live."
"That's a great thing, when I'm done with this, I'll come to the door again, and we'll have a good chat."
"Okay, let's still talk about it all night like before, a stack of peanuts and a pot of wine."
"That's a good feeling."
The two brothers talked and laughed and walked inside.
Lan Tianqin looked at the mulberry and said in a low voice, "Is my grandfather whimsical?"
Mulberry raised her eyebrows: "You can be satisfied."
The blue sky is diligent, and the old man knows it, I'm afraid he will be so happy that he can't sleep.
Walking into the Mo family, the mulberry leaves that came for the first time can be regarded as a long insight.
Pavilions, rockery gardens, countless hand-copying verandahs criss-cross, carved beams and painted buildings, beauty is beautiful, it is dizzy.
If you don't have anyone with you, it's really easy to get lost.
The feast was held in the second entrance.
Nowadays, it is not like in ancient times, where men and women are on one side.
The men's and women's guards are not so strict, everyone is in the same courtyard, talking and laughing.
However, when arranging seats, try to divide tables for men and women.
will also divide the table according to age, a young boy as big as Lan Tianqin will be the same
How old peers sit together.
Mo Xunli took Old Man Lan to the main table, and was called away as soon as he chatted a few words.
The three of them stayed with the old man for the time being, looking around the banquet hall to find the person they were looking for.
Old Man Lan said, "The older generation like Sang Lao will not come out for the time being, and may not come out at all, they will open a separate table at Mo Lao's residence."
"One of them is relatively old and inconvenient, and the other is that their status is there, and if they come out, it may make everyone uncomfortable."
"Later, Mo Lao may come out to meet a guest, don't worry, just look for an opportunity. Even if you don't see you today, it doesn't matter, you will stay in the compound in the future, and the old man will definitely go back."
Mulberry Mulberry nodded, and his somewhat impatient mood gradually calmed down.
In the backyard, where Old Man Mo lived, Old Man Sang was dressed in patched clothes, which was completely different from the carefully dressed appearance of everyone at the banquet.
is so angry and resentful that he has black lines on his face, and he doesn't know what to say.
He mentioned several times to buy some new clothes for the old man, or buy cloth, and ask someone to make it.
The old man is strong, and he is not willing to spend that unjust money, saying that his clothes can still be worn, and he doesn't want new ones.
The fastidious old man Mo saw that his eyes hurt, that is, the old man Sang, change people, see if he can bear it, and let people fork it out in minutes.
There are five old men and one old lady here, all of whom are of the same older generation as Sang Lao Mo, who have retired and are living at home for a long time.
Generally, they rarely go out, and they don't get involved in outside things, and they will only go because of their old friends' birthdays.
Everyone understands Mo Lao's preferences, and they all wear neat clothes especially for the birthday star.
Unlike Sang Lao, he dresses like an old beggar and is stubborn like a bull.
Fortunately, everyone understands him, does not disdain him, and is too lazy to talk about him.
The old man doesn't care what he wears, what others think, and his comfort is the most important thing.
Sitting without sitting, he collapsed on the chair as if he had no bones, and he was a little irritable and knocked peanuts.
He was the most impatient to sit so bored, if it weren't for Old Man Mo glaring at him from time to time, he would have run away a long time ago.
There was also Yumeng who was irritable, she never expected that Wei Song would really let her do chores.
Helping to move the ingredients, washing the dishes, cleaning, what to do without technology, I just used her as a cheap coolie.
It's a pity that she is dressed in exquisite clothes, and she has long been gray and dusty, and she has lost her brightness.
Yu Meng was so angry that he didn't dare to attack, the money was spent, the work was done, it couldn't be nothing, otherwise it would be a loss.
I don't know if Meng Shichun has arrived, she is going crazy.
Meng Shichun, who was worried about Yu Meng, arrived, and followed Meng Tianshou.
There are so many descendants of the Meng family, only she came out on top, and she came to the banquet with her, and she also played a lot of tricks.
The Meng family's reputation in the circle is really bad.
However, it is also true that the Meng family is powerful.
It is not necessary, no one wants to tear up their faces with the Meng family.
All maintain a semblance of peace and friendship.
Seeing Meng Tianshou, Mo Xunli naturally needed to greet him in person.
"Elder Meng, welcome, niece of the Meng family, welcome."
"Uncle Mo Shi, good."
"Okay, please come inside." Mo Xunli was warm, showing politeness, without the casual familiarity when he was with Old Man Lan, and greeted the two of them.
Meng Tianshou smiled gently and kindly throughout the whole process, and his every move was very polite and polite. Under the cover of the hat, there is not the slightest fierce nature.
With Meng Tianshou's level, he is naturally at the same table as Old Man Lan.
However, the relationship between the Lan and Meng families, everyone knows that Mo Xunli is also a good person, so naturally he will not pretend to be stupid and arrange the two together.
After entering the second entrance, I wanted to take Meng Tianshou to the next table, which was where the elders of the same level were sitting, and there was no distinction between high and low.
However, when Meng Tianshou saw Old Man Lan, he walked over directly and sat down next to him.
Compared with Mo Xunli, Meng Tianshou seems to be much closer to Old Man Lan.
With a gentle smile and concern: "Lao Lan, I haven't seen you for a long time, and your body is getting better?"
Old Man Lan is also a good person, and he is disdainful of Meng Tianshou in his heart, mocking, resentful, but on his face, he also laughs heartily: "Drag your blessing, barely live a few more years."
"That's a big event, are you ready to have a treat? Don't forget my old friend."
"I haven't thought about the treat, it's not a big deal, let's pay attention to hardship and simplicity, and don't do that. But I will never forget you, an old friend."
"That's good."
The two old men come and go, smiling, and those who don't know really think that the two are close friends.
Mo Xunli got the signal from Old Man Lan and had already left.
Meng Shichun obediently accompanied Meng Tianshou and quietly looked at the mulberry leaves.
Whoever appears in the Lan family will not escape the eyes of the Meng family.
She naturally knows about these two mud legs from the countryside.
But she didn't take it to heart, she was just a grasshopper that couldn't get up, and it didn't deserve her much attention.
However, Lan Sui is really going back to this old thing, and he actually brought such a mud leg to the banquet, and I don't know if the other descendants of the Lan family will be happy if they know about it.
Therefore, although the Meng family took action against the Lao Sang family, Meng Tianshou and Meng Shichun did not know that Mulberry Leaf Mulberry was the person they had punished.
Speaking of which, this is also an insult to the old Sang family.
A kind of high-ranking person, with disdain for ordinary civilians.
Mulberry leaves and mulberries now really hate the Meng family.
It's not because of the Meng family's targeting, the law of the jungle, the survival of the fittest, they understand this truth very well, they can understand it, and accept it.
Because they are self-confident and oppressive, it is only temporary, they can stand up with their own ability and make the Meng family not worth mentioning.
It's just that the Meng family shouldn't let Yuzhi's body be one point worse, which is the source of their hatred.
Lan Tianqin always paid attention to the reactions of the brothers and sisters, for fear that they would not be able to hold their breath, so that the Meng family would have an excuse to attack them.
However, mulberry leaves are more stable than Lan Tianqin thinks, they will forbear, they are not stupid, and they are even very smart.
When hunting in the mountains, the most important thing is not to have good hunting skills, but to be able to hide yourself.
They can disguise themselves as any beast and easily sneak into the herd.
He can hide all his aura and hide from the pursuit of wild beasts.
They were even trained by Sang Dazhuang to boil eagles, and few people can compare to that endurance.
So, forbearance, disguise, it is not difficult for them.
In fact, Old Man Lan was also worried in his heart, but fortunately, the brother and sister never reacted.
However, after staying for a long time, I was afraid that they would show my stuff, so I said, "You children can't stay here, go play by yourself, don't go far."
"Okay," the three of them nodded obediently and left, they also wanted to see if they could find any trace of Old Man Sang.
Thank you little cute tip o(^▽^)o
