Chapter 171: I Treat You as a Brother, Do You Want to Be My Brother-in-law?
The Xie family's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner ushered in the atmosphere amid Xie Kuoyun's wanton ridicule.
Yuan Zhi was overjoyed, from childhood to adulthood, it was the first time he saw such an aggrieved son.
This made her look forward to meeting that Miss Xie even more.
Although the Xu family is not very harmonious, the excuse of 'big New Year' can be applied everywhere.
Therefore, even Xu Jiayan and her two uncles patiently endured the noise of a few young people.
Xu Weishan held a chopstick enoki mushroom in a bowl, "Don't say it, it tastes good." β
He has eaten so many delicacies from the mountains and seas, and it is rare to praise the good food.
Xu Hanxuan also nodded, indicating that it was not bad.
The two aunts suppressed the fire against their in-laws in their hearts, turned their anger into appetite, ate some clear soup, and then switched to red soup, which was very open.
In general, everyone eats well, except for Xu Ningyu.
Because she, as a star, has to go on a diet.
She was supposed to have a live TV broadcast tonight, but because her singing was really not good, she recorded it in advance.
But on the night of the New Year's Eve, the old couple likes to watch the Spring Festival Gala, so they don't like to watch the programs of local stations.
After eating and drinking, Chu Yan filled the pork rib soup in a thermos bucket, and the boiled dumplings on the upper layer, said to the little stepmother and took a taxi.
Xu Sifeng left the next sentence and came back before the New Year's Eve, and he followed suit.
Song Bangyue went upstairs with Tian Tian in her arms.
The two aunts looked at each other and resigned themselves to cleaning up the mess on the table.
During the New Year's celebration, Xu Jiayan announced a news:
"Xiao Yu and Du Heng's engagement banquet should be advanced."
Originally, it was said that the engagement banquet would be organized on Labor Day, and everyone had time to prepare.
Xu Weishan and Xu Hanxuan looked at each other, and had a little guess in their hearts.
Xu Zhen was quite calm, "When is it early?" β
"On the ninth day of the first lunar month, I have already passed the gas with the Xu family." Xu Jiayan peeled the orange quietly, "It just so happens that you are also annoyed with the moon, and you can throw her out when you are engaged." β
After the marriage contract is announced, the new energy vehicle factory has also been prepared.
There is no turning back when the bow is opened, and even if Xu Ningyu's life experience is disclosed at that time, it will be useless.
Xu Zhen did not object when he heard this, but the faces of the two sons were a little ugly.
"Xu Jiayan, the second child said that the marriage of another person is just a joke, you don't need to be in such a hurry to decide, right!"
Xu Weishan is quite capable of pretending outside, but he can't hide his words at home.
What to think of and say, in Xu Jiayan's opinion, it is just a straw bag.
Xu Ningyu, who was still shy just now, couldn't believe that the two uncles had actually hit her with the idea of a marriage contract?
She glared at Xu Silan, why? This woman has looked down on herself since she was a child, and as a result, even her fiancΓ© wants to rob her!
Xu Silan pretended to be surprised, "Uncle, don't talk nonsense. β
In fact, she overheard this, but no one knew what she was thinking in her heart.
Xu Jiayan reclined on the single sofa, and didn't bother to guess, "Big brother, why can't you figure it out?" It's not okay to change people, after all, it's me who cooperates with Du Heng, not you. β
At this moment, the eyes of Danfeng, who was already shrewd, flashed with cold ambition.
Xu Weishan felt the pressure of his sister, and slapped the armrest of the sofa angrily, "You are a woman with a dead husband, it's good for me to let you go home, and you dare to be powerful at home, where did you put our two elder brothers?!" β
"Where did you put me?" Xu Zhen's gloomy voice made him instantly dumbfounded.
Xu Zhen's heart was extremely disappointed, until now, the two sons thought that they could use feudal rules to suppress their daughters.
They don't understand that they have now lost to a woman.
It is Xu Jiayan's intention to let Song Bangyue stay in the Xu family, and Xu Zhen wants to hold a family recognition banquet, which is just for the convenience of his daughter.
On the one hand, he pinned his hopes on his sons, but it was a pity that they seemed to have the ability, and it was up to him to actually act.
On the other hand, he expects the Xu family to revive the glory of a few years ago, but the real estate industry is declining, and at present, he only sees the new energy automobile industry held by Xu Jiayan as a way out.
He wants this fragrant dumpling, and he doesn't want to be pinched in his hands by his daughter.
In case Xu Jiayan remarries one day, the Xu family will directly become her dowry!
So, after thinking carefully about it, he suppressed his son's voice, "Then it's set on the ninth day of the first month, has the list of banquet guests been set?" β
"It's already booked, just waiting for the invitation."
"Then you can do it."
Xu Zhen knew that he couldn't control this daughter now, so he could only let her go.
Xu Keming took the lead in saying congratulations to Xu Ningyu, followed by Xu Silan.
It's just that how much sincerity is hidden in the congratulations of these two people, it is unknown.
β¦β¦
On the other side, Xu Sifeng followed Chu Yan to the hospital, but he didn't expect that the person he was going to visit turned out to be his half-sister!
Xu Sifeng doesn't hate Bai Qingwei.
People like them often hear that someone has an illegitimate child, and they always want to enter the house.
But Bai Qingwei is different, she doesn't want to come to the Xu family.
He saw her arguing with Bai Shu more than once, and she was just a tool man.
It's just that his mother and sister don't like Bai Qingwei, and he doesn't get close to him much.
"Brother, you are really going to kill me, let my sister and my mother know that I came to visit Qingwei, and I guess you can pick my skin."
Chu Yan glanced at him lightly, "If you don't say it, I won't say it, who can know?" β
After Bai Qingwei came to Beijing, Xu Hanxuan arranged a special care ward for her, which was very suitable for recuperation.
She left the intensive care unit in the afternoon, and although she was not moving much, she was very conscious.
When he saw Xu Sifeng, he was calmer than expected.
Now that Aunt Song has returned to the Xu family, Chu Yan will probably have to go there for a while, so it is not strange to meet this brother.
"Did Aunt Song do it?"
"Hmm." Chu Yan dismantled the ribs into small pieces and removed the fatty meat, "My mother's specially stewed chops, eat some." β
Bai Qingwei was a little hesitant, "The doctor said to eat light." β
Chu Yan couldn't help but stuff the meat into her mouth, "The lightness that the doctor told me means less salt and less oil, not for you to eat porridge." β
This is still what he said when he asked Song Bangyue to make porridge, and she patted his brain.
What is the nutrition of eating porridge for people who are recuperating from injuries?
Just eat protein!
The dumplings are specially served with green onion and beef filling.
Considering that she has a wound, Song Bangyue didn't even use ginger and pepper, the beef was soaked in water, rubbed with salt to remove the blood, and it was a little fishy, but the umami was more sufficient.
Chu Yan looked at her and a half, her appetite was very good, and a smile gradually appeared on her face.
She was still alive, she could eat and sleep, she could laugh and chat with him, and her uneasy heart gradually settled down.
"When you raise it again, Mom said to wrap some seafood wontons for you."
"No, I'm going to eat it straight."
"Okay." Chu Yan pinched the dumplings, "Good, eat another one." β
Xu Sifeng saw that he had the posture of a twenty-four filial husband, and slapped his thigh in hindsight, "Okay, you boy, I want to be a brother with you, but you want to be my brother-in-law!" β
