After traveling through time, I relied on rich people’s gossip to reach the top of my life.
Chapter 118 The so-called family
Chapter 118 The so-called family
Although everyone felt that everything was inappropriate today, they still had to pretend on the surface. Especially Su Yu, the victim No. 2, needs to act calm and calm.
"Hey, I wanted to scare your sister, but she gave me a meal of fried hair. It seems that I am not suitable for scaring people. Hehe..."
Su Yu smiled awkwardly, but the other three adults understood her embarrassment, kept silent in unison, and looked away. Only the child Jingchu opened his big ignorant eyes, tilted his little head, and had a suspicious nose. He sniffed a few times and said, "I seem to smell the smell of braised pork from you, so... hmm..."
Before Jingchu could finish the rest of his words, Jing Limo covered his mouth, and the person covering the person smiled sarcastically, "Haha, children's words are not limited. Children's words are not limited."
Su Yu didn't take this matter too seriously. He waved his hand to Jing Limo and said, "Hey, what's the big deal?" After saying that, he turned around and faced Li Xi with a different face. He pulled aggrievedly. Li Xi's sleeves, "My dear, look at me like this, I can't have lunch with you. I'm so envious that you are all clean and fresh, unlike me, who smells like braised pork. Wow. Wow, I’m too embarrassed to see anyone.”
Li Xi: "..."
Luo Jingxuan: "..."
Jing Limo: "..."
Today's tea is a bit strong.
Li Xi: "Okay, you go to my room to wash up first, and then find something to change into. Although we have different styles, we are similar in stature. You can basically wear my clothes. Find something that suits your taste. Wear it."
"Okay~" The yin and yang weirdness failed, Su Yu pursed her lips and walked to Li Xi's room dejectedly. She had been to the Royal Garden many times, so she naturally knew where Li Xi's room was, and she didn't need anyone to show her there.
The victim in question left, and there was no need to stay to watch the fun. "You three are really capable. Everyone entered the kitchen, and you didn't know it. Fortunately, it was Xiao Yu who came in. If this is a bad person, you see It's no longer lively, it's a crime scene! Humph (¬︿¬☆)" Li Xi glanced at a few people with evil eyes, and turned back to the cooking table angrily, "We've seen all the excitement, why don't you hurry up and wait. How about I show you a crime scene?”
The best way to face a woman's anger is to admit your mistake. Even Xiaodou Ding Jingchu understands this truth, so no one refuted Li Xi's words and just laughed and slowly left the kitchen.
Before leaving, Luo Jingxuan added in his mind, "Bad people can't enter the villa. The security guards hired at high prices and the intelligent security system installed are not vegetarian." However, he didn't dare to say it out loud at this time. The best way to appease a woman's anger is not to explain, but to be calm. This is the truth he learned after spending several months with Li Xi.
Although most of the time, Li Xi is not an unreasonable person, and can even be said to be a very rational person, but when her temper gets angry, she will ignore her relatives and refuse to listen to reason.
Luo Jingxuan was "lucky" to meet Li Xi a few times, mostly when Li Xi was on her menstruation period and when her mood was very unstable. At first, he tried to explain the facts to Li Xi, but Li Xi, who was in an emotional state, only glanced at him lightly and let out a cold snort from her nose.
Then there is no more.
After many times, Luo Jingxuan has learned from experience that he needs to be coaxed or told to go along with it. This is also difficult for Mr. Luo, who only focuses on work. When replying to emails, he is always thinking about why his wife is angry, why she is angry again, and how to prevent her from being angry?
Of course, he couldn't say such a boring title as "wife". He couldn't even think of it in his mind. The most he could think of was "Xixi".
Hey, I don’t know when the word “wife” will come out of his mouth.
Ahem, that’s too far off topic. Let’s talk about the luncheon in Yuyuan.
When Su Yu came down from upstairs, Li Xi had already prepared all the dishes and was asking Luo Jingxuan, Jing Limo and Jing Chu to help serve the dishes and clear the table. Jingchu was young, so the "difficult" job of serving dishes was naturally not his turn, so he helped arrange the dishes, chopsticks and cups.
Luo Jingxuan and Jing Limo, two "tyrannical presidents" who usually provide guidance in the company and often facilitate transactions worth tens of millions or even hundreds of millions, now, under Li Xi's "power", they both rolled up their sleeves and started serving dishes. . Both of them were wearing casual clothes, so there wouldn't be a sharp contrast between high-end suits and vegetable soup and oil fumes, but their styles really didn't match home-cooked meals and housework, so it was quite a shock when they met for the first time.
It was obviously the first time for Su Yu to see such a scene. He was really shocked and his eyes were as wide as bells. Just like those vase actors who don't know how to act but insist on expressing rich expressions, their wide eyes are full of drama.
However, the shock did not last long. Li Xi took off her apron and came out of the kitchen, "It's done. Find a seat and sit down. Dinner will be served soon."
Su Yu was not polite when he heard this. He found his usual seat on the dining table and sat down. He folded his hands on the table and looked like he was sitting and waiting for the meal.
Li Xi was very happy to see her, "You two, please move faster. Didn't you see that our Xiaoyu is hungry? You made our Xiaoyu starve, can you afford to pay for it?"
"Yes, yes, let's speed up the action and make sure we don't starve our two noble princesses." Li Xi spoke to Su Yu, and Luo Jingxuan consciously did not answer. It was Jing Limo who spoke. Without waiting for a reply, Li Xi dragged Luo Jingxuan into the kitchen again.
Li Xi took Jingchu, who had set the dishes and chopsticks, and sat down to chat with Su Yu. The topic was not new, it was nothing more than complaining about things about the Lu family, and talking about their respective arrangements for the next few days.
When the two of them talked about the content arrangements for the next period of the "rich family gossip talk", Luo Jingxuan and Jing Limo finally put the dishes on the table and each found a place to sit down.
Before using chopsticks, Li Xi took some photos, including group photos, single-course photos, etc., and shared them on the "Gossip Talk" account. Although it was not gossip about a rich family, it could still be considered a New Year's Eve dinner for a wealthy family.
Hehe (●ˇˇ●)
After taking photos, a few people had a drink first. They didn’t drink. Since there were children at the table, they all drank the juice - the orange juice that Aunt Lin had just squeezed before she left. Whether it’s sweet or not is another matter. It’s absolutely fresh and has no additives. .
After clinking glasses, I said a few random blessings, such as Happy New Year, Good Luck in the Year of the Dragon, and Good Wishes for Prosperity. No one specifically said hello and they just started. While eating, I remembered that we occasionally chatted for a few words. Whoever couldn't pick up the food would move a plate and pass a spoon to someone who saw it.
The host will not deliberately shout, "Eat, you're welcome." Nor will he help pick up the food, "This is delicious, eat more." Of course, except for Jingchu's children, who have been in China for a while, they will know how to use chopsticks. It works, but it's not very neat. Sometimes you still need an adult to help pick up the food.
The guests will not pretend to be reserved and politely only eat the dishes in front of them. Instead, they will eat and drink as they should and eat and drink as they please, very freely. Li Xi likes this kind of atmosphere very much. It feels like a family eating together. Don't be polite or flattering.
After the meal, except for the little kid Jingchu, none of the adults were idle and started to clean up. However, the main force was still Luo Jingxuan and Jing Limo. Li Xi was the hero of the cooking, and they all wanted to let her rest. As for Su Yu, she was just taking advantage of Li Xi, and was assigned easy jobs. Such as wiping the table and packing leftovers to put in the refrigerator.
Usually, Aunt Lin prepares meals according to the number of people, and the excess will be distributed to the helpers at home (the meals prepared for the host family are all made with the best ingredients, and Li Xi told them that they are not wasteful people, saying It's leftovers. In fact, they look pretty good and they won't look shabby if they are shared with the helpers.) Today is the New Year's Eve dinner, so Li Xi has prepared more. Most of the helpers at home, except Uncle Wu and the security guard who are on duty, have returned to their own homes. At home, Uncle Wu and the security guard were separated early in the morning, so Li Xi had no one to help with the leftovers.
Besides, can the leftovers from the New Year’s Eve dinner be called leftovers? That's called blessing! Except for vegetables that cannot be disposed of overnight, other leftovers can be sorted and placed in the refrigerator. Of course, it's not good to keep it for too long, and Li Xi doesn't plan to keep it for a long time. If nothing happens, there will be leftovers on the table in the few days after returning from Luo House.
Refuse to waste, start with me! Hey!
This meal was eaten as a reunion dinner, so it took a long time to eat. It was almost half afternoon when we finished and packed up, and it was time to prepare for the family dinner in the evening. Needless to say, Jing Limo is the head of the family, and he should host the family's New Year's Eve dinner. Although most of the work is given to dedicated personnel, and the work of receiving guests is also assigned to the younger members of the family, there are always some People need to be received by themselves. Moreover, this was Jing Chu's first time celebrating the New Year in China, and Jing Limo also wanted to introduce him to someone else, so Jing Limo took Jing Chu away not long after cleaning up.
After that came Su Yu. It was not her turn to make the decision at the Lu family's banquet, and with the partiality of Lu's father and mother, they would not want her to interfere. Mr. Lu hoped that she would exercise more, but first of all, Su Yu was indeed young and had not graduated from college yet. Secondly, preparing for the family dinner would inevitably involve her going back and forth and scheming with her seven aunts, eight aunts, and relatives as far away as possible. There is really no need for Su Yu to be exposed to these things too early.
Of course, she was too happy to do anything and just be a fun person. So before the dinner, she had a lot of time to "waste", as long as she made sure to dress up and arrive half an hour before the dinner.
It was easy to meet Li Xi, so naturally I wanted to have a warm and intimate chat for a while. Thinking of all the troublesome stuff in the Luo family, Li Xi didn't really want to go so early. Plus, with the confidence of "Mr. Luo" behind him, he was happy to spend some time with Su Yu.
The two chatted for a long time, until they had to prepare for the dinner, and then they reluctantly separated. Su Yu went back to the Lu family to make preparations, while Li Xi enjoyed the door-to-door service of a supreme VIP. This time, it was not Tangtang who came here, but another styling studio that had long-term cooperation with Luo. According to Assistant Jiang’s gossip, Luo Jingxuan’s mother, Ms. Lu Zhiyao, came from this studio every time she attended banquets. room.
Li Xi is a "small town problem maker". Before traveling through time, he had few opportunities to come into contact with these "private high-end customizations" and didn't know much about them. Although we had contact after time travel, we didn’t know much about them, and I didn’t have any special preferences. I left the decision to the stylist every time. Fortunately, the stylist was very capable, and I had a good foundation, so I made no mistakes every time. .
This time, because it was Chinese New Year and I was attending with Luo Jingxuan, Assistant Jiang made a request when making an appointment with the stylist. First, it should be more festive, and second, it would be best to dress up as a couple with Luo Jingxuan to make it look blinding. Those love brains from the Luo family.
After the dress was put on her body, Li Xi was a little confused. Otherwise, her dress looked too much like a wedding dress. The style of the skirt was simple. It was a long-sleeved waist-cinching long skirt with a square tie and ruffles. The waist and skirt were embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns. Li Xi guessed that Luo Jingxuan's clothes had similar patterns. It looks very slim, elegant, and beautiful. The problem is, the color of the skirt is burgundy! The pattern embroidered on the skirt is gold!
Li Xi: "..." It's too festive.
But what can be done? It's definitely too late to change. It's all because I was lazy and didn't look at the clothes in advance. I just don’t know what Luo Jingxuan’s clothes look like and whether they are as festive.
Without worrying too much about the clothes, Li Xi had people put on makeup and hair. It was useless to worry about it anyway, it was better to put it on. However, this peaceful mood almost exploded when he saw Luo Jingxuan.
Luo Jingxuan's clothes were not much different from usual, just a complete black high-end suit, except that his tie was replaced by a red bow tie embroidered with golden auspicious cloud patterns, and the collar of his black shirt was also embroidered with golden auspicious cloud patterns. It was definitely festive, but compared to Li Xi's "toasting clothes", it was too normal.
Li Xi glared at Luo Jingxuan angrily, lifted up her skirt and walked out without any intention of waiting for Luo Jingxuan. Luo Jingxuan was good-tempered and didn't argue with her. He only quickened his pace and followed her.
Of course, in the end, the two of them took a car and went out. It was okay to act petty in front of others. They still had to give each other face when they went outside, not to mention a big family like the Luo family where everyone was at odds with each other. family.
The two of them arrived at Luo's house not too early, and they had almost arrived. Li Xi had appeared once at a family gathering of the Luo family. She was unfamiliar with most of the Luo family, so she only greeted Luo Da and Luo San. Her performance is pretty average, she looks like an ordinary junior, younger brother, sister-in-law.
The other party's reaction was what Li Xi had expected. The elders all smiled lovingly. Among the peers who were better behaved, they were smiling but not smiling. Those who were worse behaved, such as Luo Xingyue, almost rolled their eyes.
No matter good or bad, kind or malicious, Li Xi always returned his honest smile. Don't ask what a simple and honest smile is, ask what it is: Macabaka boom. (●''●)
Of course, you don't get eye rolls for nothing, so when receiving Luo Xingyue's eye rolls, Li Xi's honest smile became more sincere, "I heard that Xingyue had a conflict with that girl from the Shen family recently, and they were noisy. A lot of jokes have been made? Let me tell you, Xingyue is not young anymore, it’s time to be sensible. The Shen family and the Luo family are somewhat of a rival. If you play well with other girls, everyone will treat you as ignorant. It's good now, because the trivial things have become known to everyone, and it's easy for people to laugh at our Luo family. "Tsk, tsk, it's really inappropriate for someone who is celebrating the New Year to let your elders wipe your ass for such trivial things." Then, the honest smile was replaced by an expression of condemnation and hatred.
"You!" Li Xi's retort made Luo Xingyue so angry that she almost pointed at someone with her arms akimbo, regardless of her image, and started another quintessential Chinese scolding, but Yun Mei, who was standing next to her, pulled her up and stopped.
" He asked Li Xi, "Xiao Xi has just arrived and hasn't seen grandpa yet. Go quickly. Grandpa is waiting for you. You should be impatient."
Li Xi smiled at her, not caring at all about the teasing in the other person's words, "Hey, Third Aunt, this is a misunderstanding. I'm still in school and have plenty of time. I will visit grandpa when I have time on weekends. Some time ago The winter vacation has started, and every now and then I bring my nephew over to play. Grandpa often sees me and knows that I love to procrastinate, so he won’t go out of his way to wait for me~" After that, he said sweetly to the other party. Smiled a little.
If you ignored the words themselves and just looked at her expression, you would think she was acting coquettishly with her elders. Maybe the spectators on the sidelines were still sighing in their hearts, this is a family that loves each other.
The victim, Yun Mei, only felt like she had swallowed a fly. No matter how good-tempered she was, she was still a little uncontrollable at the moment. If I had known that Li Xi was a thorn in the side, I would have never thought about celebrating the Chinese New Year.
In the end, Yun Mei just curled her lips and said, "Well, it seems that I come to the old house too little, and I didn't know that you spend more time with the old man."
Li Xi continued to smile sweetly, "Yes, I am a student, so I am free." Of course, Li Xi is not very free at ordinary times, and the days when she was forced to squat at home cannot be considered leisure. She came to the old house to see Mr. Luo The number of times was not as much as she said. At least the old man didn't know that she had serious procrastination. But this does not prevent her from exaggerating in front of other people. After all, no one will go to the old man to verify whether it is true or not. Even if I find him, there is nothing wrong with what she said, but "free on weekends" can be understood as being free every weekend, or it can also be understood as being free on weekends occasionally. Every once in a while can be understood as coming often, or it can be understood as coming every three or five days.
This is the art of language.
Compared with Li Xi's "effortless", Yun Mei is more awkward. She is not the type to compete with others. At first, it was because of Luo Xingyue's words, but now she regrets it. It is better to let them be small. Young people go to make noise, it’s fun anyway.
"Haha, students do have more free time." Yun Mei noticed the criticism in Li Xi's words, and did not want to dwell on it anymore, so she chose to change the subject, "By the way, when are you and Jingxuan going to have a wedding? Although you are still here Go to school, although Jingxuan means not to reveal your identity to outsiders, it is still okay to have a small wedding within your family. "
"It's a wedding~" Li Xi made a distressed expression in cooperation, as if she cared about it, "I'm still in school, just, uh, ugh!" As she said this, Li Xi pretended to lower her eyelashes and pursed her lips. Looking unhappy, "Hey."
Seeing her like this, Luo Jingxuan thought she was really sad. He was about to say something, but before he could say anything, Li Xi raised his head and smiled sweetly at Yun Mei, who had already raised the corner of his mouth.
"There's no need to worry about it. The wedding of the person in charge of the Rock Group must be a grand event. We have to let the outside world know about our Rock Group's pomp. How can we invite a few relatives to fool us like you said? It’s just that I’m still in school and I don’t want to be exposed to the public at all. I don’t want outsiders to disturb my campus life. I just want to study quietly.”
She said it as if Luo Jingxuan would give her a wedding of the century if she wanted her. Who didn't know that she was a beautiful waste given to Luo Jingxuan by the Luo family, hahaha. Luo Xingyue cursed with disdain in her heart, which was reflected on her face by rolling her eyes, "I'm going to do something grand without even checking whether I'm worthy of it."
"Sister said something different. Marriage is a matter for two families and two people. As long as we are satisfied with each other, the difference in family background is not a problem, and there is no question of whether we are worthy or not, but whether we are willing or not. Question. Besides, how can we talk about emotional compatibility? It's too superficial." Li Xi shook her head and said, "Sister Xingyue, if you don't think so, you will easily fall into emotional trouble in the future."
"You have to take care of my affairs. Take care of yourself. It seems that Brother Jingxuan is very willing to be with you. I don't even think about how you got to our house. You are the only one who deserves to have feelings for me. Bah!" Luo! Xingyue can hang out with Shen Yanran, which shows that she is not a good-tempered person. Before, she had to shut up and act like a mute because Yun Mei pulled her. Now that Yun Mei doesn't pull her, she will naturally not restrain her temper. But she didn't notice one thing. Luo Jingxuan and Li Xi came together, and they were wearing a "couple's outfit" that was very inconsistent with his usual workaholic image, and he was also wearing a red bow tie.
"Xingyue, you have overstepped your bounds. Xixi is my approved wife. You shouldn't be so open-minded." Luo Jingxuan is used to being the one in power, so when he spoke with a straight face and a low voice, he was still very bluffing. human.
Luo Xingyue, who was opposite him, was startled by Luo Jingxuan's voice. Qiqi Aidi didn't dare to look at Luo Jingxuan, and just muttered in a low voice, "I don't."
Others also cast surprised glances at Luo Jingxuan, especially the "initiator" Xiao Lin, the eldest aunt of the Luo family. Didn't she find a beautiful loser like Li Xi just to humiliate Luo Jingxuan? Now it seems that a marriage has been achieved?
Only Li Xi was not surprised and had no special reaction. He continued to smile sweetly and said, "Sister Xingyue is old enough to compete with her best friend for a man. She is not too young. It's time to learn some things. Third aunt has time to worry about us. It’s better to focus on Sister Xingyue’s education during the wedding, right?”
Even though Li Xi said mean words without changing his expression, he was actually a screaming chicken inside.
"Mr. Luo is so handsome! A mighty and domineering man who is even more domineering than the boss. Please allow me to call you husband! Ahhhhhhhhh!"
I will fill in the holes, and I will try my best not to be unfinished, but my writing will be slower. There is not much gossip to write about later. It mainly focuses on the emotional changes of the male and female protagonists. Peony people said that there are a few bits and pieces that are difficult to write...
Uh-huh-huh...
