Cousin girl's salted fish life

Chapter 22 Dinner
Drinking tea and chatting, the time passed quickly, seeing the sky darkening outside.Everyone came over one after another, even the second master who was going to work also got off work.

The old lady called everyone to sit in the main hall, and asked the maid to go down and order the dishes.

A whole family of flesh and blood sat in the hall.It's just that there are too many people, so we divide the seats.Four adults sat at a square table, and eight juniors sat at a round table.

Hui Lan was a guest, but she couldn't shirk it, so she was given the seat of chief.On one side is the big cousin, on the other side is the big cousin.

The old lady gave an opening speech, "Today this is for Hui'er. They are all from my own family. What I want is a sense of intimacy. Everyone, don't be restrained, just have fun."

The eldest lady went on to speak, "We have another girl in our family, which makes it even more lively."

The second master, as the only adult male at home, exists like a pillar, and his speech is as bold as his figure, "Good boy, I will go home. With your brother, sister, younger brother and younger sister as companions, you are too thin. Every day You should eat and drink, and you will look better if you gain weight. Tell uncle what you want, and the stars and moon will be picked off for you. Erlang Saburo, take good care of your cousin, if you dare to bully her, see if I will punish you for washing the toilet."

Pfft, Huilan listened fine at first, so she nodded happily.I also lamented that my uncle was honest, and I would have a cousin who could bully me in the future.At the end, I wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, so I had to twitch the corners of my mouth and lower my head to snicker there.

The old lady rolled her eyes at her youngest son, the eldest lady twitched her lips helplessly, and Mrs. Li pinched her husband resentfully.

The eldest lady's face was calm, with a helpless smile in her eyes; Erlang's face was speechless, he lowered his head and felt ashamed to see others; Sanlang's face was dark and red, with a strange color, distorted as if he had eaten a fly.

Si Niangzi and Liu Lang looked at the two elder brothers and couldn't stop laughing. The eldest lady glanced at Si Niangzi and wiped Liu Lang's face with a handkerchief, successfully blocking the laughter that was about to burst out of their mouths;
Fifth Lady pursed her lips tightly, and turned her head to wipe the hands of the ignorant Seventh Lady, not daring to look at her two elder brothers, for fear of ruining her merits.

The second master didn't seem to notice the various living beings at the dinner table, and smiled honestly at the old lady, "Mother, let's serve dinner."

The old lady laughed and ordered dinner.

Hui Lan coughed twice, and gathered her mind to prepare for cooking.

The dinner table is very rich, with delicacies, seasonal vegetables and river delicacies, everything that one expects to find, and the fragrance is tangy.

Hui Lan watched with drooling in her heart, wishing she could do it herself.

However, the conditions did not allow, so she had to sit obediently and wait for Qingguo to give her vegetables.

Over there is wine for the grown-ups, and here is sherbet.From the old lady to Liulang, they raised their glasses in turn to express their welcome to Huilan.

Huilan was very polite, thanking and paying back one by one with a sweet smile.In fact, he beat his feet and chest in his heart, and sighed with regret.Looking at the delicious food on the table, she had to drink sherbet to fill her stomach, which made a glutton vomit blood.

Three rounds of dishes, five flavors of wine.

The unspoken rules disappeared with the efforts of the second master and Xiao Liulang.

Both the old lady and the eldest lady loved their son, and they were all close relatives present, and they didn't disappoint. The atmosphere in the hall was surprisingly good.

As the leader of the atmosphere, the second master has a good sex.Talking and laughing at Yan Yan with the old lady, the second lady and the juniors, and did not neglect the eldest lady.

Liu Lang is only four years old, and he grew up with a lot of love and affection, very lively and mischievous.

But with a big lady sitting there, he is more restrained.The cute baby with red lips and white teeth, Cymbidium is also itchy.

It's a pity that the two are of the opposite sex, only one year apart in age, and they are the most inhospitable existences.

In order to live a peaceful and happy life, Huilan decided early on to strangle this hidden danger.

So I just talked and laughed with a few sisters, teased Xiao Qiniang, and occasionally said something to my two cousins.When Liu Lang said something, she ate with a smile, and naturally someone answered.Neither close nor cold, keeping a distance is the kingly way.

The eldest girl didn't speak much, and she looked at Hui Lan with a softer smile as she looked at Hui Lan with her beautiful eyes.Kindly talked with her about the household chores, and there was no shortage of pointers in the words.The tone is gentle and the voice is gentle, which makes people feel like a spring breeze, and he said a lot without knowing it.

Hui Lan had nothing but admiration for the eldest girl. She was only 12 years old, the age when she had just entered junior high school.He is considerate and considerate in dealing with people, speaking in a reasonable and decent manner, and gentle and generous.

Not to mention that she is an adult who is fearful of the society and wary of strangers, but after meeting twice today for a conversation, she let go of her guard and eliminated the barriers, wanting to get to know her better and make her a best friend.

Just look at the love and trust of the old lady, the eldest lady, and the second lady, the baby bump of the eldest room is obedient to her, and the two cousins ​​also respect the cousin wholeheartedly...

Seeing that the eldest lady has revealed her elegant face, she secretly sighs that this cousin will definitely be someone in the future.

It is estimated that Bai Yueguang's appearance was like this when she was so big!

Compared to her, Si Niangzi is more like a little girl her age.The family is well-off, noble, and well-educated.Sensible and courteous but also confident and flamboyant, delicate and self-confident but also clear to the bottom.

Fifth Lady was gentle and silent, even less talkative than Huilan.Just listen to everyone's talk quietly and take care of Seventh Lady.When asked, she responded politely; when she was not asked, she listened quietly, smiling from beginning to end.Follow the time, don't be surprised when things change, and you can stick to it.

Thinking that she lost her mother since she was a child, and there is no real grandmother around, and she still has a younger sister to take care of.Although she was raised by the old lady since she was a child, it is not her own home after all, and it is conceivable to develop such a character.

Fortunately, Qin Niangzi is still young, delicate and cute, and her childish speech is very cute.From the old lady to the fourth lady, everyone treated her very well.

In contrast, several boys also have their own strengths.

The big cousin is only less than half a year younger than the big lady, but he speaks and acts like a big brother.However, he did not follow the talkativeness of his parents, and was relatively reticent.But it's not clumsy and tongue-tied, in Hui Lan's eyes, it's a typical sulky, listless one.

Talking as much as the second cousin and the sharp-tongued fourth lady can't talk to him.He kept chasing and beating him fiercely, but the little boy couldn't stop if he lost face.It's still the big lady who goes out, appeases them first, then hits each with [-] big boards, and then changes the topic.

The conflicts that can't be smaller are resolved and invisible. The siblings look at each other and smile, and the tacit understanding is infinite.

Xiao Liulang is a purely proud son of heaven. As the future Duke of Zhen and the youngest son, he is definitely more phoenix egg than Jia Baoyu.But fortunately, it seems that he has not been spoiled yet. Although he is also arrogant and willful, there are not many of them.He also listens more to his older brothers and sisters, so he is not considered a brat for the time being.

Hui Lan watched with cold eyes, and looked around the table of peers calmly, feeling a lot of emotion in her heart.At this table, only the little six and the little seven are real children, the second cousin and the fourth lady are relatively innocent.

Huilan can be strong without desires, and she is open and frank, but as long as people are not self-abuse, they will understand who they can deal with more in the future.

She is always the protagonist today, and everyone from adults to children will not neglect her.

After drinking and eating, everyone sat and talked for a while.

Seeing that it was getting late, the old lady put down her teacup and winked at Cheng's mother beside her.

Mother Cheng bowed and stepped back, but within a few seconds, she led a half-grown girl in.The girl looked about ten years old, and knelt down in front of the old lady holding a tray with low eyebrows.

The old lady nodded, and Cheng's mother stepped forward to receive the flannel covered tray.

"It's hot, let Hui girl wear this pair of tourmaline jewelry, it can also relieve the heat." The old lady looked at Hui Lan's loving smile, "This is the third-class girl Narcissus in my house, so I gave it to her." Girl Hui, let's do it."

Hui Lan hurriedly got up to thank her, and Qing Guo stepped forward to take the tray.The narcissus girl kowtowed respectfully to the old lady, and then to Huilan, then got up and stood behind Huilan.

"It's still the mother who loves the granddaughter. These tourmaline beads are verdant and translucent. They are really good things!" The eldest lady laughed and cheered.

"Don't you have any good things, my wife's self-esteem is for her granddaughter, don't even think about it," the old lady joked, pointing at the eldest daughter-in-law.

Everyone laughed, and the eldest lady smiled calmly, "Yes, yes, mother loves granddaughter, daughter-in-law loves mother, and only girls love girls more!"

The old lady almost spit out her tea, she couldn't speak out of laughter.

The eldest girl suppressed a smile to please the old lady, and the eldest lady also bent over with a smile.Mrs. Li blushed, covered her mouth with a handkerchief and sniggered.The second master didn't take it into account, he laughed and said that the eldest lady said well.The older children smiled reservedly, and the younger ones laughed backwards and forwards. Hui Lan imitated her aunt and covered her mouth with a handkerchief when she smiled.

The eldest lady is also very tough, it's amazing to joke with the mother-in-law in front of the uncle and the junior!
"Miss Hui, come here." The lady was almost smiling, and waved for Hui Lan.

When she passed by, he pulled her and praised her again and again, Hui Lan almost blushed when she praised her.

Only then did he beckon to the big girl who was close to him to bring out a tray, on which was a set of warm pearl noodles.A necklace, two bracelets, two bead flowers, and two single bead earrings.

"Good boy, let's wear it and play with it. My aunt will send someone to pick it out for you tomorrow. If you don't want to find your aunt in the future, you can come to me and get it for you no matter what." The eldest lady said Seeing Hui Lan's confession, she even stabbed her sister-in-law behind.

Hui Lan hurriedly smiled and thanked, "Thank you, auntie, Hui'er remembered it."

Here they held hands and talked a lot, while Mrs. Li was turning her eyes away from her mother-in-law.

Finally, the old lady laughed and told everyone to leave, and Hui Lan got away.

She said that she was covered in cold sweat, and the lady's enthusiasm made her feel uncomfortable all over.

After leaving Fushouju, the two rooms are farewell.Mrs. Li asked Mama Yang, who was beside her, to pick up Huilan and walk back together.

The sky has completely darkened, unlike the night after light pollution in later generations, the moonless sky is dark and dense.If it weren't for the stone lanterns along the road and the lanterns lit by the girls in front and behind, it would be really blind.

Hearing the occasional chirping of insects and the whispering voices of her uncle and aunt walking in front, Hui Lan almost fell asleep.

This dim scene, the quiet environment and the little white noise really help sleep.

"Cousin, go back to the house and go back to sleep." The eldest cousin called her softly, waking Hui Lan up at once.

"Didn't my cousin sleep at noon? Why did she get sleepy so quickly? My cousin is too weak. Let's practice martial arts with us in the future. I hope you will be stronger and more energetic." The second cousin enthusiastically came up with bad ideas.

Hui Lan rolled her eyes, thank you so much, even if I practice martial arts, I still have to take a nap, and I will get sleepy.

"Thank you cousin for your concern. I will go when I reach my age in September, and I will need my cousin to take care of me then." Hui Lan spoke softly, with a meek look.

"Leave it on me." The second cousin got excited, patted his chest and promised loudly.

This voice not only frightened countless bugs, but also frightened his parents.

"Stinky boy, what are you shouting in the dark sky, scare your mother. If you scare your cousin again, let's see how I deal with you." Uncle's voice was stronger than his son's, and the second cousin was completely suppressed immediately.

He didn't dare to speak loudly, so he murmured to himself, "You are always louder than me."

The uncle in front of him coughed loudly, so frightened that he covered his mouth and dared not speak out again.

Hui Lan snickered softly, and the eldest cousin also coughed a few times.

Hui Lan sighed, this second cousin is not only a chatterbox but also an idiot!
