Chapter Thirty-Eight: It's not a bad thing to have a lady with a cold personality
If it's getting late today, it's already time for dinner.
Hua Ying took Xu Chen'an and Qiu Yue back to the hall.
It stands to reason that there is another dinner party tonight.
But before, because Xu Chen'an attracted talent from the sky, the bronze bell on the Wen Tower in Mengze Prefecture rang three times.
So those guests all said goodbye early, wanting to go back to see who the genius who attracted the talent of Mingzhou came from.
Now there were only three men left in the hall.
One is the head of the Ji family, Ji Wenzheng.
One is the housekeeper of the Ji family who I have seen before.
The remaining one was a burly and upright young man that Xu Chenan had never seen before.
"That is the second young master of the Ji family, Ji Fuhu." Welcome reminded Xu Chen'an softly in his ear, and then pulled Qiu Yue away.
Seeing that the guests in the hall had dispersed, Xu Chenan didn't take it seriously.
"Chen'an, come here, accompany me and Fuhu for a drink in a while." Ji Wenzheng beckoned to Xu Chen'an.
Xu Chenan also walked into the hall, and then bent down towards Ji Wenzheng.
"Father-in-law."
Then he bowed his hand to the young man who was looking at him to the side.
"Second brother."
Ji Fuhu is addicted to martial arts, and today he is learning a new boxing method, so he missed the time.
At this moment, seeing that his sister-in-law seemed to be a good person, he also said with a hearty smile: "Chen'an, I'm sorry, I delayed my boxing practice this afternoon, and I didn't catch up with you and my sister to visit the church." ”
"Second brother, it's okay..."Xu Chenan replied.
"Oh, Chen'an, since you married Xianyu, then we are a family, don't be too polite, and don't have to be too restrained."
"My father and I are both martial artists, rough and leafy, not so poor and exquisite, as long as you and Xianyu live a good life in the future, it is better than anything else." Ji Fuhu smiled heartily.
At this time, Xu Chenan was very close to Ji Wenzheng and Ji Fuhu, but he didn't hear the voices of the two of them, which means that what the two of them said was what they thought in their hearts.
"Your second brother is right, come to Chen'an, sit."
"Fuhu, you sit too." Ji Wenzheng said to Xu Chenan and Ji Fuhu.
Xu Chenan and Ji Fuhu obediently sat on both sides of the table.
At this time, the maids also served wine and food.
Only one maid was left to wait to pour the wine.
"Chen'an, we are now a family, you take the envy fish, then I am your father, if you have any difficulties in the future, just tell me. The fish is cold, but it will never hurt you. You usually take care of it a little more. Ji Wenzheng raised his glass to Xu Chen'an.
And Xu Chenan was also a little frightened and hurriedly raised his glass.
"Father-in-law, where is this? I'm just here to get into the house, so naturally I'll be dominated by the eldest lady. I can tell this from my son-in-law. ”
Xu Chenan has not yet determined whether the Ji family is pretending to be or not, so naturally he does not dare to show his flaws, and he is full of words.
"In our Ji family, there is no such thing as a son-in-law, we are all our own family, no matter what." Ji Wenzheng continued.
And Ji Fuhu next to him also interjected: "Yes, Chen'an, we are a family from now on, we don't need to see each other so much, my sister's temperament is like that, even if she meets me and my father, she doesn't bother to say a word..."
"You stinky boy..."Ji Wenzheng glared at Ji Fuhu.
"Don't hold it up, Dad. As a celebration, we welcomed another family member, and we had this drink! Ji Fuhu said heartily.
"Hahaha, good, good!" Ji Wenzheng also smiled.
Then Xu Chenan and the three of them drank the wine in the glass.
Putting down the wine glass, Xu Chen felt a little warm in his peace of mind.
Looking at the appearance of the father and son in front of him, Xu Chenan understood that the family style of the Ji family must be excellent.
The son has respect for his father, but he has no fear. The father disciplines his son, but he does not force it.
Take a peek at the whole picture, this kind of family atmosphere is also what Xu Chenan yearns for.
After a glass of wine, Ji Fuhu's words box opened.
"Brother-in-law, don't listen to the rumors from outsiders that my sister is mute."
Hearing this, Xu Chenan was stunned, could it be that the rumors were false?
But then I thought about it, how many of the rumors were true? Three people become tigers, and the same is true in this era.
"My sister is just cold-hearted, and she only talks to the people closest to her. For example, the two maids next to her can barely talk a sentence or two a day. ”
"I can talk to my mother for a few days once in a while."
"But it's my turn to be with my father, and she may not be able to talk to us for ten days, half a month, or even a month."
Speaking of this, Ji Fuhu looked a little depressed. directly picked up the wine jug on the table and poured a glass for his father Ji Wenzheng first, then filled Xu Chenan's wine glass, and finally filled his own wine glass.
Seeing this small detail, Xu Chen'an was a little frightened, and at the same time felt that his cheap second brother seemed to be really good-natured, and he actually poured wine for his son-in-law.
If not, then he is a terrible character who is extremely good at hiding and acting.
But then Xu Chenan denied this idea, even if the second brother is good at acting, what does he want to do?
The trio raised their glasses again.
"Your mother and your sister are not here today, otherwise we can just change the bowl and drink." Ji Wenzheng on the side asked tentatively.
"Then if tomorrow Niang investigates..."Ji Fuhu said with some fear.
"Isn't this Chen An's top? Today is the big day for my daughter and son-in-law to get married, so it's okay for me to drink more, right? Ji Wenzheng slapped the table and said.
"Makes sense..."Ji Fuhu nodded in agreement.
Xu Chenan sat on the side and looked at this scene in surprise.
Seeing that the maid next to him was about to replace the wine glass in front of Xu Chen'an with a bowl, Ji Wenzheng and Ji Fuhu hurriedly stopped it.
"If it doesn't work, Chen'an will have to go to the cave room at night, don't drink it." Ji Wenzheng waved his hand.
"Yes, it's good to drink, my brother-in-law is a scholar, and he must be too strong to drink. Don't drink unconscious, you will delay the business. Ji Fuhu also said.
Xu Chenan actually wanted to refute, after all, the degree of this wine was only about ten degrees. I can cook several bowls myself.
But seeing that Ji Wenzheng and Ji Fuhu were both for their own good, they didn't explain, and continued to drink with the two of them with their cups.
After a few bowls of wine, the relationship between the three heated up sharply.
"Son-in-law, don't look at your father-in-law, I'm a rough man, but I have a pair of eyes that can look at people. Your father-in-law and I have killed not 1,000 but 800 people, I see people most accurately, and I can see a person's heart, liver, spleen and lungs clearly. ”
"As soon as I see you, I can see that you are a down-to-earth person, unlike those rich sons, the second generation."
Ji Fuhu on the side also blushed and nodded: "Yes, yes, I feel this way too." Brother-in-law, you have the advantages of a scholar, but you don't have the sour and rotten smell of those rotten people. Although you are a scholar and I am a warrior, we can get along. ”
His father-in-law and his brother-in-law were obviously slightly drunk, and seeing the two praising themselves, Xu Chenan could only respond with a reserved smile.
"Don't be arrogant, okay, okay!" Ji Wenzheng boasted again.
The three of them drank again.
"Actually, it's not a problem that this cold temperament is not a problem, your father-in-law and I are from here. I know what it's like to have a passionate wife... The taste is a little unbearable..."The old man Ji Wenzheng obviously drank a little too much.
Ji Fuhu on the side still retains a little bit of reason.
"Dad, you've drunk too much, you should be quieter, don't bother me... If it reaches my mother's ears, my mother will beat you, and I can't stop it. Ji Fuhu whispered on the side.
Hearing this, the old father-in-law Ji Wenzheng's drunkenness was suddenly half frightened.
"Ahem... It's not important, in short, Chen'an, you have to remember that it is not a bad thing to have a lady with a cold personality. ”
Xu Chenan couldn't help but smile and nodded seriously: "Chen'an, write it down..."
At this time, Ji Fuhu also seemed to remember something, straightened his face and continued:
"By the way, it seems that there are still some people who have their hearts to criticize me outside to spread that my sister is blind, which is also nonsense at all!"
