Chapter 136 Which young master in your family is so unlucky?
Shi Chunquin said at the right time: "Usagi wants to help me keep an eye on the Dragon Boat Festival, so he won't sit down and have dinner with us."
"Oh." Shan Rou was stunned for a moment, and seemed to understand in her heart, so she didn't ask any more questions.
Although she didn't say anything, Yu Atu's face was still burning. She felt like she had been slapped hard in public. What kind of cousin? She was just a maid next to Shi Chunfen, not even as good as Shan Rou.
This stranger.
To Shi Chun Equinox, she is probably not important at all...
Not long after the two sat down, everyone from the Cao Gang arrived one after another. As soon as Weng Xiaohuan arrived, she went straight to the Chu family's seat, looking for Chu Run everywhere. Seeing that Chu Run was not there, only Shi Chunfen and Dan Rou arrived, she couldn't help but turn the page.
Rolling his eyes, "You guys are so early."
Shan Rou raised her eyebrows and retorted not to be outdone, "Isn't this to give your Cao Gang face? Why, Miss Weng doesn't welcome us?"
"That's not the case." Although Weng Xiaohuan was unruly, she was not confused about priorities. Shanrou was invited by their Cao Gang, and she would not embarrass guests in her own territory. Her eyes fell on Shi Chunfen,
He took the initiative and said, "When will Fourth Master arrive?"
Seeing her talking softly to Shi Chunfen, Shan Rou's eyes almost popped out.
At this time, Chun Equinox also responded without any surprise, "He is with his second uncle and the others, so he may have to wait a little later."
"Oh." Weng Xiaohuan nodded slightly, with a rare expression of confusion.
Wouldn't that mean she was going to meet her future father-in-law, and she wasn't ready yet?
Shi Chunfen noticed her embarrassment and said proactively: "Don't worry, my second uncle is very easy-going and won't embarrass you."
Weng Xiaohuan shrank his neck and said harshly: "Who said I was worried? I, the eldest daughter of the Weng family, do I still need to look at the faces of your Chu family?"
Although she asked for the marriage herself, anyone with a discerning eye would know that it was Chu Run who sought her out.
This is the confidence of a concubine, which is beyond the reach of all concubines.
On the one hand, Shi Chunfen felt envious, but on the other hand, she felt that she was a bit naive. She was as noble as the head of Huating County, and she was not only suppressed in the Chu family. She didn't think that Weng Xiaohuan's careless temperament could be cured by the Chu family, but she
It was impossible to remind Weng Xiaohuan of anything, so he could only smile at her and say, "That's the best."
Weng Xiaohuan snorted, ignored them, and ran to find his two younger sisters.
Seeing her walking away, Shan Rou quickly asked: "What's going on? She seems to be a lot more polite to you?"
Shi Chunfen smiled lightly, "Maybe she will marry into our Chu family soon."
"Really?" Shan Rou covered her mouth, "Which young master in your family is so unlucky?"
She thought of what Weng Xiaohuan said just now and quickly reacted, "She just said that the fourth master is your fourth young master?"
Shi Chunfen smiled and nodded, "Exactly."
Weng Xiaohuan thought about it carefully, but there was no impression in her mind. In other words, there were so many young masters in the Chu family, and she only knew Chu Ling.
Not just her, not many people in the huge Liuzhou knew the other young masters of the Chu family.
As long as the son of the Chu family is mentioned, people will immediately think of Chu Ling. As for what other people are like, it seems to have become less important.
"Mrs. Sister-in-law!" As soon as Weng Xiaohuan left, Weng Zhenhai came closer, "Why are you here alone? Brother Chu isn't coming?"
Shi Chunfen explained with a smile, "Lang Jun hasn't returned to Liuzhou yet, so he can't make it in time to participate in this dragon boat race."
Weng Zhenhai looked regretful, "What a pity, I still want to have a drink with him!"
Seeing that he could pretend to be nonchalant so quickly, Shi Chunquin couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Her eyes fell on Weng Zhenhai's hand and asked proactively: "Is your wound feeling better?"
Weng Zhenhai instinctively covered his palms and said humbly: "Much better."
The incident of Chu Ling piercing his palm with chopsticks that day was vivid in his mind. He had nightmares almost every night after returning. Because of this, he was more afraid of Chu Ling than respectful, but he just pretended not to care in front of outsiders.
Probably because he didn't want to continue this topic, his eyes finally fell on Dan Rou beside him, and he asked curiously: "Who is this?"
Shan Rou stood up and bowed to him, "The little girl Shan Rou is the daughter of the captain of the city gate. She has met the young gang leader."
"Captain of the City Gate?" Weng Zhenhai quickly remembered that his three sisters seemed to often speak ill of this girl in front of him, but when they met today, she didn't seem like a bad person.
The three of them chatted for a while, and everyone in the Chu family finally arrived late. Because the old lady was old and could not travel hard, so except for her and Chu Ling, who was still in confinement, everyone in the Chu family was present, which was enough.
In order to save the Cao Gang's reputation, even the usually unsociable third room was ordered to attend, and the scene was very lively.
As soon as the three brothers of the Chu family arrived, Weng Xiong invited them to greet each other, and the family members went to the table first. Because the head of Huating County was not in Liuzhou, Chu Yan could only bring Aunt Liu to attend. She seemed to be related to Xue Jinxiu from the second room and Cao Yingchun from the third room.
Yes, the three of them led their children to sit down together.
Shi Chunfen thought that on an occasion like today, Aunt Liu would definitely bring her two daughters at the same time. Unexpectedly, she was only accompanied by Chu Qian and Chu Ying did not show up. Shi Chunfen felt that something was not right, but she restrained herself.
His eyebrows looked as if nothing had happened.
"Sorry, Vernal Equinox, we are late." In full view of everyone, Aunt Liu took the initiative to talk to Shi Vernal Equinox.
Shi Chunfen smiled and said calmly: "It doesn't matter. I have to take care of everything first, so I set off a little early."
"It would be great if that's the case." Xue Jinxiu couldn't help but said: "Otherwise, everyone would think you were avoiding us on purpose. How embarrassing would that be?"
She took advantage of the fact that there were no outsiders at this table, so she deliberately choked Shi Chun Equinox with her words, but she didn't notice that there was a Dan Rou sitting next to her. She was so embarrassed that she almost buried her head in the bowl.
"Second Aunt said something serious." Shi Chunfen said with a faint smile: "You have done nothing wrong, why should I avoid you?"
Xue Jinxiu's expression changed and she said hurriedly: "Of course we didn't do it, you just thought we did it."
Seeing that she wanted to bring up old things again, Cao Yingchun was afraid of being implicated, so she quickly said: "Okay, okay, it's rare for a family to come out, why bring up those disappointing topics?" Her eyes fell on Shan Rou, and she took the initiative: "This
This girl is... Equinox, why don't you introduce me to her?"
Seeing them mentioning herself, Dan Rou immediately raised her head.
Shi Chunfen introduced from the side: "This is Miss Shan, the daughter of Captain Chengmen. She came alone today and there was no one to take care of her, so I asked her to sit with us."
"Yes." Dan Rou looked at everyone and tried her best to smile, "Dan Rou has met all the ladies."
