Chapter 240: Chinese New Year's Eve Dinner
"Okay, okay, let's not say a word, Sister Li, especially you, Sister Wu is an old man here, how can we be qualified to say her share, Sister Wu heard it for a while, maybe she will be unhappy. ”
Li Cui, who was called by her name, immediately said dissatisfied: "Am I still afraid that she won't succeed, isn't she just a few years earlier than me?" In terms of ability, I am much better than her, she thinks that Miss Young Master likes to eat the food she cooks all day long, and I cook much better than her." ”
Li Cuicui came to the Gu family a few years later than Aunt Wu, and at that time, there were many old servants in the Gu family, and they naturally belonged to the latest batch.
Later, after Old Man Gu was old and the old servants were fired one after another, Aunt Wu has always relied on her loyalty to become the most recognized person by Old Man Gu.
Until now, Aunt Wu's status in the Gu family should not be underestimated.
"Sister Li, you don't have to say a word. ”
"Yes, don't say it, this family is the young master's final say, and the young master respects Sister Wu very much, don't make trouble for yourself. ”
Regardless of the persuasion of the people around her, Li Cuicui said even louder, "I'm not afraid, I'm just dissatisfied with why she can easily cook a meal every day, such a big house, just a few of us, where can it be cleaned?"
The piercing sound happened to reach the ears of Aunt Wu who came back from the restaurant, and when everyone saw Aunt Wu, they were busy with the things in their hands.
Only Li Cuicui looked directly at Aunt Wu, and her gaze did not dodge at all.
"Li Cuicui, it's not a matter of a day or two that you are dissatisfied with me, I won't bother with you today, and after the New Year, we will have a good talk. ”
Aunt Wu's face was calm, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, she must not make a big deal about this matter.
If the young masters and ladies know these things, it will definitely affect their mood.
"Wu Hui, don't think that I'm afraid of you if you hold a shelf, I know what attention you have in your heart, you just want to be high in front of the young master for a while, don't you?"
Li Cuicui's aggressive appearance made Aunt Wu very irritable, she didn't say anything more, and continued to fry the food.
The kitchen, which was still bustling before, became extremely silent for a while, except for the sound of spatulas and chopping vegetables.
Seeing that Aunt Wu didn't speak, Li Cuicui also felt bored, so she didn't make any more trouble.
After all the meals were ready, Aunt Wu walked to the living room and asked everyone to eat.
In the restaurant, a table full of food on the table opened Qiao Jing's taste buds, and she sat down excitedly.
She hadn't eaten the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner of the old house for three years, and when she was in Country C, she missed Aunt Wu's craftsmanship especially every Chinese New Year's Eve, thinking that she would never have the opportunity to taste it again in her life, but she didn't expect to be able to eat it this year.
"Jingwei, why are you getting less and less chance now, the elders haven't sat down yet, so you sit down first. ”
The piercing voice sounded, Qiao Jing, who was sitting in the seat, turned slightly cold, she raised her head and glanced at Gu Yuan, still sitting on her own seat.
It's ridiculous, when did the old mansion become so well-behaved.
Seeing that Qiao Jingwei ignored herself, Gu Yuan's face was even worse, and when she was about to lose her temper again, Lin Qingqing, who had been silent, sat beside Qiao Jingwei and said in a deep voice: "Mom, sit down quickly, today is the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and we have to keep the New Year after eating earlier." ”
Lin Qingqing's voice was very soft, but her momentum completely frightened Gu Yuan. Everyone's eyes looked at Lin Qingqing, especially Qiao Jingwei.
Everyone took their seats, and Gu Ting picked up the wine glass and got up in order to ease the atmosphere.
"Come on, come on, count the past few years, this year is the most complete time for our whole family, let's toast together. ”
As soon as Gu Ting spoke, the others naturally agreed, and in an instant, the atmosphere in the restaurant was extremely strong.
It's just that behind the excitement, there is suspicion in everyone's heart. After a meal, Qiao Jingwei only ate a few bites and left in a hurry. After putting down the dishes and chopsticks, she walked alone into the courtyard.
The snowy scene made Qiao Jingwei feel much better, she walked to the pavilion around the corner, reached out and swept the snow on the handrail, and sat on the chair.
This place was her favorite place when she was a child, and it hasn't changed much over the years.
When she was a child, she always liked to sit alone in the old house, and the old man often came to tease her when she was not paying attention.
Gradually, she let go of the mustard to the old man and was really willing to live in the Gu Mansion.
So many years have passed in a blink of an eye, and time is so fast.
Qiao Jing's slightly lonely figure fell into Gu Xiuran's gaze not far away, and he slowly stepped forward.
"Jingwei, you still like to sit in this position as before. ”
Hearing Gu Xiuran's voice, Qiao Jing didn't look back, she smiled, "The outside world has changed too quickly over the years, but the old mansion has not changed at all." ”
Once upon a time, she also thought that she would spend her life in the old mansion, but she didn't expect all kinds of changes to make her completely chilled.
"It seems that you have been living in the old mansion recently, and you have a lot of feelings, how about it, will you leave early tomorrow morning?" The reason why Gu Xiuran came to the old mansion today was indeed because of Qiao Jingwei.
He had already thought on the way here, as long as Qiao Jingwei was willing to leave tomorrow morning, then he would take Qiao Jingwei and Jiashu out for a trip according to the original plan.
If Jingwei is unwilling to leave, then he will accompany her to live in the old mansion for a while.
Hearing Gu Xiuran's words, Qiao Jingwei stood up and sighed helplessly, "I also want to leave, but Jiashu wants to live in the old mansion, if only you could make him clear." ”
Qiao Jingwei really has no way to take Jiashu, that child is persistent, it is not something she can deal with, and she doesn't know who this temper resembles.
As soon as he heard this, Gu Xiuran instantly gained confidence.
Over the years, he has never had any problems with Jiashu, and he is completely sure that he can persuade Qiao Jiashu to leave the old mansion.
"Okay, I'll leave this matter to me, and when I keep the New Year in a while, I'll do some ideological work with Jiashu. ”
The originally unhappy mood was much better in an instant, Gu Xiuran sat on the chair excitedly, and the smile on his face was very dazzling.
Seeing that he was so happy, Qiao Jingwei didn't say anything more, as long as he could successfully persuade Qiao Jiashu, it could be regarded as helping her get out of the sea of suffering.
The two sat in the pavilion for a long time, until Gu Ting appeared and interrupted the two.
"Why, it turns out that the famous Assistant Gu came back for the New Year this year, thinking of chatting with Mr. Qiao?"
The indifferent voice came into Qiao Jingwei's ears, and she quickly turned around and looked at Gu Ting behind her.
This Gu Tingshi is really ghostly, and he is really there.
I don't know if he heard their conversation just now, but if he did, maybe he would find a way to get Jiashu to stay in the old mansion for a few more days.
Today, Gu Yuan's sarcastic words have already made her very unhappy, if she stays any longer, I am afraid that she will be depressed in a few days.
"Tingshi, don't talk nonsense, I came to the old mansion just to abide by the rules set by the old man. ”
