Hearing that Mrs. Xiao was going to invite Mrs. Qin and Miss Qin to come to the house as guests, Pang Zi had been walking around the old lady's courtyard obviously more diligently in the past two days, helping with some trivial matters, she understood the intention of her mother-in-law's move, although the Xiao family had many children, but in addition to the eldest son Xiao Yuanchuan and the eldest daughter Xiao Fenghua, there was only the eldest Xiao Hechuan. For her husband, there is only one brother in law, Xiao Hechuan, and for her future brother-in-law, she can't help but be unconcerned.

Mother-in-law is already partial to the younger son, if Xiao Hechuan marries back a young lady from a big family, it is difficult to guarantee that the status of these nine brothers and sisters will not cross her sister-in-law, after all, she is a second marriage, although she gave birth to a son, but Xiao Yuanchuan does not care much about this young son on weekdays, she is also walking on thin ice in the Xiao family, and she really lives with caution.

In addition, now that he has to take the daughter born to his ex-husband to his side, facing his mother-in-law and husband, Pang Zi feels that his heart is short, and now he knows that his mother-in-law wants to choose a daughter-in-law for Xiao Hechuan, so he has to cheer up and behave well in front of Mrs. Xiao and Xiao Yuanchuan.

Pang Zi worked hard to make this banquet as perfect as possible, Xiao Hechuan was also quite cooperative, obeyed his mother's instructions to free up time, and stayed in his mother's courtyard for dinner when Mrs. Qin and her daughter came to the door.

Since that meeting, Xiao Hechuan and Qin Shuyi went to the fan restaurant for two meals together, hindering the face of both parents, both of them were very polite, although Xiao Hechuan had not stayed abroad, but he still had the gentlemanly demeanor he should have, but he didn't seem too attentive, everything was just right.

For Miss Qin, he can't say that it's good, and he can't say anything bad. He thought that Miss Qin should have a similar impression of himself, and the two of them tacitly agreed that they would be ordinary friends first, which could be regarded as blocking the mouths of the parents of both sides.

Early in the morning, Xiao Hechuan came to the main building to dine as usual. When I entered the restaurant, I saw Xiao Yuanchuan and his wife, Xiao Wenyue and Lin'er were there, but there was no Youqing.

Xiao Hechuan said hello to everyone, sat down and asked, "Where has the little niece gone?" ”

"I guess it's late, I asked Mama Chang to shout." Pang Zi spoke softly, and sent breakfast to Xiao Hechuan.

"Uncle Nine," Xiao Wenyue looked at Xiao Hechuan, a smile rising at the corner of her lips, "How are you and Miss Qin doing recently?" ”

"Adults don't inquire about children." Xiao Hechuan took a sip of coffee and casually sent Xiao Wenyue away.

Xiao Wenyue said to Xiao Yuanchuan, "Dad, why don't we invite Miss Qin to have a meal at home again, Miss Qin talks very well, I really want to see her again." ”

"Yueyue," Xiao Hechuan looked at his eldest niece, "I haven't talked to her yet, so it's not good to always call people to the door like this." ”

"I don't want you to come forward and let your sister-in-law come to invite," Xiao Yuanchuan took his daughter's words and said to Xiao Hechuan, "You have nothing to do, you can make an appointment with someone, you are not young, it is time to start a family." ”

Xiao Hechuan had a headache when he heard this, and he didn't want to talk about it more, so he only frowned, "Okay, I know." ”

"Uncle Jiu, next time you go out with Miss Qin, if it's convenient, it's better to take Youqing with you," Xiao Wenyue remembered Youqing, these days, Youqing occasionally finishes her homework, she will go to her house to accompany her, and tell her some interesting things in school, the two get along very well, and she likes this sister more and more, "This child has been in Jincheng for so long, I'm afraid he hasn't gone out to play yet." ”

"Yueyue is right," Xiao Yuanchuan always nodded unconditionally to his daughter's words, "I am busy with the affairs of the army on weekdays, and your sister-in-law is busy with the affairs of the house, you take the child out for a walk." ”

Xiao Hechuan glanced at it and saw Pang Zi holding a bowl of egg custard there to feed Lin'er, Xiao Yuanchuan and his daughter could remember Youqing, but she, a mother, seemed to be nothing.

After a period of time, Xiao Hechuan also saw that she ignored this daughter to the extreme, he was displeased, and said directly, "Big brother, who is Youqing's daughter?" Why did you throw it at me like a tail? What else am I going to date with her? ”

Youqing found out early in the morning that she had come to the moon letter and soiled her clothes, she packed herself, first changed the sheets, and then changed her clothes, so she delayed the time, and hurried towards the restaurant all the way, but as soon as she arrived at the door, she heard Xiao Hechuan's tone was not good, and she expressed her dissatisfaction with Xiao Yuanchuan there.

She heard the disgust in his tone, and the blood on her face suddenly faded, and she originally felt ...... Xiao Hechuan took good care of himself. She was also very grateful to him, and even foolishly thought that if he was free, could she bother him to take her to buy a few books, there were many books that she didn't know where to buy, and asked her mother, but before she could speak, her mother sent her away.

But it turned out that he also disliked himself like this, and treated her as a little tail that he couldn't shake off.

The tip of Youqing's nose was very sour, and she stood there, not knowing for a moment whether she should go in or not.

"Okay, you eat slowly, I'm full." Xiao Hechuan has always had no appetite in the morning, and he didn't speculate, so he just put the bowl aside, got up and left the restaurant.

Youqing heard his footsteps, and it was too late to leave, so she could only stand there and watch Xiao Hechuan stride out.

Seeing Youqing, Xiao Hechuan's heart sank, and when he saw her appearance, he knew that she had listened to Fang Cai's words, and he stepped forward and shouted, "Little niece." ”

"Uncle Nine, I'm sorry, I've caused you trouble these days." Youqing hurriedly apologized, thinking about it, Xiao Hechuan did help her a lot, was it hers.

"No," Xiao Hechuan looked into her eyes, "I didn't say those words to you just now. ”

"Hmm." Youqing answered.

Xiao Hechuan walked closer to her, "What's wrong with your face, it's uncomfortable?" ”

"No," Youqing was uncomfortable, but where could she talk to him? She avoided his gaze and whispered, "Uncle Nine, I'm going to eat." ”

After saying this, Youqing lowered her eyes and stopped looking at Xiao Hechuan, and only walked into the restaurant quickly.
