Chapter 40 At the reception

Standing on the road, Li Xiaoshuai saw that the place where they were standing was actually a small restaurant with two rooms. The sign on the lintel read “Old Summer Restaurant.”

The two of them were surrounded by the two entering the store, and Li Xiaoshuai saw that the area of ​​the store was not small. There are four tables of the Eight Immortals with miscellaneous wood on each side, and under the windows against the wall, there are four original table tops that are folded up and form a semi-circle.

Xu is not open to the public today, and there is not a single eater in the store.

A group of people sat down at the Eight Immortals table by the door, and immediately a young man with a fair face served tea and shouted: “Niangniang, please drink tea.”

Without waiting for Xia Huifang’s question, my aunt Qin Dongmei introduced that this is my hairy foot, called Qi Xiaoxiao; I am also from this town, and my family Xiaohe is a classmate. The two little ghosts have been talking about university since middle school.

“The young man looks white and tender, it’s not bad.” Xia Huifang’s affirmation made Qi Xiaoxiao’s face bloom with joy.

“Eat tea, eat tea” Aunt Qin Dongmei insisted on tea, and said that this was the tea grown in the back mountain of her own family, and the taste was definitely better than the ordinary ones bought in the store.

Li Xiaoshuai tasted it, and it tasted really good, with a slightly bitter and sweet aftertaste, much better than the one he bought in New York. “Aunt, why are you called cousin-in-law Maojiao? What does this mean?”

His mother-in-law explained that hairy feet are sons-in-law who have already settled their relationship and who are not yet married; the collective name for daughters-in-law means that they are not married yet, and they are doing things sloppily.

Only then did Li Xiaoshuai suddenly realize that he was a son-in-law with hairy feet; a daughter-in-law with hairy feet meant a prospective son-in-law and a prospective daughter-in-law.

His eldest cousin nodded immediately and said, that’s what he meant.

“He, he has a lot to learn.” Xia Huifang patted Li Xiaoshuai on the shoulder dotingly. She also asked her niece and nephew: “Have you received all the gifts mailed to you?”

“I got it.” The two of them thanked each other in a hurry.

This reminiscence of the old, the chat is not over, the whole family has been chatting until dinner.

The Eight Immortals table was opened, the original table top was placed, and a large glass turntable was placed, and the exquisite dishes were served by Liushuijie. Li Xiaoshuai looked at it. It must have color and fragrance, and it must be no worse than the Rabbit Country Restaurant in Chinatown.

Li Xiaoshuai Zhang’s uncle Xia Dahai is the same as Maitreya Buddha, and he also brought an unopened bottle of Maotai from behind, and his hairy-footed son-in-law behind him was carrying a basket of beer: “Little Shuai, can you drink something white?”

“Liquor is not good, beer is fine.”

His mother-in-law said, that’s good; I won’t send you the wine, but you can drink the beer. Today our Xia family is reunited, and we must be happy to drink it.

“That’s right.” Li Xiaoshuai’s uncle, Luo Hongjun, who runs a mahogany workshop at home, agreed.

This old man looked as if he was carved out of the same mold as Luo Yang. He was black and his eyes were small. Outsiders could tell that he was his own.

Before the banquet started, there was another old couple outside, riding an electric straight-through bicycle and parked in front of the store.

When Xia Huifang saw it, she pulled Li Xiaoshuai up and said, “Get up, your uncle and your aunt are here.”

When he was walking out, Li Xiaoshuai could clearly hear his aunt complaining, “I can’t meet you, dinner is here.”

Li Xiaoshuai’s heart moved, and he said yes, but his mother and son hadn’t come back for seven years, so it was a necessary etiquette to greet him.

When my aunt saw Xia Huifang, she said in an apologetic tone that the two of them were late because they still had to go to work.

When Li Xiaoshuai called someone, Xia Dahai also came out to invite and reported their names, and Li Xiaoshuai completely remembered. His uncle’s name is Li Zaiqun, and at first glance, he seems to be honest, while his aunt, Lou Yuxiang, is an old woman with thin lips and a shrewd look.

Xia Dahai also kindly invited the two of them into the store, saying that Huifang and his son had just returned from the United States, and everyone had a drink to catch up.

“Okay, okay.” My aunt was polite and polite, and went into the store and sat down.

After Li Xiaoshuai was seated, he saw that the old woman just sat down and looked up and down at her mother. He also said, “Huifang; do you seem to be living well, the more you live, the younger you are.”

Xia Huifang said with a proud smile, her son’s earnings will make her feel better, and of course she will look young.

“Isn’t it right?” Auntie pursed her lips and smiled slightly, “I see that you are still wearing a black stone necklace. What’s going on?”

Black stone necklace?

The whole table began to pay attention to this problem, and at first glance, it was true.

Li Xiaoshuai’s uncle said, “I know this. It is estimated that Huifang has a bad cervical vertebrae. The stone necklace specially used for treating cervical vertebra pain that she bought in the small vegetable market is said to have the function of infrared rays.

The old man also said that he had seen this kind of stall several times in the small food market in the town.

“Ah, your cervical spine is not good?” Li Xiaoshuai’s aunt was very concerned about this matter.

His mother-in-law also said that he should go to the doctor soon.

In this situation, who is good and who is bad, Li Xiaoshuai sees it all. He said that my mother has no cervical spondylosis, and this necklace is not stone, but pearl.

Aunt Lou Yuxiang jumped up like she was electrocuted, “The child is talking nonsense, I am almost sixty years old, and I have never heard of black pearls in the world.”

She also turned her head and asked Li Xiaoshuai’s uncle: “Old man, have you ever seen black pearls?”

His uncle shook his head like a rattle~www.readmtl.com~ said that pearls come in various colors, but he has never seen black pearls, “Could it be fake?”

Luo Yang stood up and said, saying that you don’t know and you don’t admit it. Pearls are black, and they are the most precious kind. Don’t pretend to understand.

“Auntie, are you a black pearl from Tahiti? If so, the price is very expensive.”

Xia Huifang nodded frequently, feeling that her nephew had a face for her, and praised Luo Yang for his vision.

“Wow, it’s Tahiti’s black pearl, it’s very famous.” Xia He couldn’t help but take a few more glances, and the more he looked, the more extraordinary this necklace became.

Aunt Lou Yuxiang glanced at the corner of her mouth and asked Luo Yang, “It’s very valuable. How much can such a small particle be worth?”

“Uh” Luo Yang scratched his scalp in embarrassment, “I’m not sure about this either.”

Xia Huifang took the necklace around her neck and hung it on her hand: “This necklace was given to me by Xiaoshuai. Don’t look at the small particles, but it is worth 30,000 US dollars.”

Hearing that the necklace was worth 30,000 yuan, Li Xiaoshuai’s aunt snatched the necklace and turned it over and over in her hand, and the corners of her mouth were drooling.

That’s not all, she also hung the necklace around her neck, and hinted to Li Xiaoshuai: “I have this necklace and it looks pretty good, just treat it as a gift from you.”

She also said smugly to Li Xiaoshuai’s uncle: “Old man, is it suitable for me to carry?”

“Old spirit, old spirit, it’s amazing.”

“Hmph!” Auntie snorted angrily.

At this moment, Xia Huifang’s face also changed, and she looked at Li Xiaoshuai helplessly. His uncle hated even more why he invited the pair of living treasures to his house. Isn’t this adding to his sister?

“Shameless!”

Li Xiaoshuai is angry!
