When Xiao Zheng went downstairs, Ye Yuhua was chatting happily with Lin Xiaozhu. He couldn't help but come up and say, "What are you talking about?"
Just now, when Lin Xiaozhu broke the awkward thing, Xiao Zheng felt that it was necessary to get close to his sister-in-law, so that he wouldn't be able to speak with her in the future.
"I'm whispering to Auntie." Lin Xiaozhu rolled her eyes at Xiao Zheng and curled her lips. "Brother-in-law, you are a man, why are you so gossipy?"
Xiao Zheng said with a smile, "Who said that men can't gossip? I love to listen to gossip since I was a child. Come, tell me what happy things you've talked about. "
"Che. I won't tell you. "Lin Xiaozhu glared at Xiao Zheng, then took Ye Yuhua's arm and shook it. "Auntie, I will be eighteen in a few months. Will you come to celebrate my birthday with me? "
"Of course." Ye Yuhua smiled gently. "I'm afraid you won't invite me."
"How could that be?" Lin Xiaozhu leaned her head on Ye Yuhua's shoulder and said coquettishly. "Auntie, you must prepare a big gift for me. Otherwise, I will lose face. "
Xiao Zheng, who was sitting on the side eating fruit, had no expression on his face, but his heart was shocked.
Ye Yuhua was the former rival of Lin Xiaozhu's mother. And speaking of which, Lin Xiaozhu's mother in front of Ye Yuhua was simply a little mistress who deserved to die. With such an awkward identity, Xiao Zheng couldn't imagine that Lin Xiaozhu would be so close to Ye Yuhua. If he didn't know the relationship between everyone, Xiao Zheng would really think that Lin Xiaozhu was Ye Yuhua's daughter. And Lin Huayin was the daughter of Ye Yuhua's rival.
Lin Xiaozhu, this girl, was really big enough to have no worries, and Ye Yuhua really let go of everything, even Lin Xiaozhu was so spoiled. It was indeed the demeanor of a big man. He had to admire it.
After waiting for a while, Lin Huayin finally came downstairs. But everyone found that she did not change her clothes, and was still wearing a casual home dress, which was surprising.
"I have to go to the company to deal with some urgent documents. You guys go ahead and eat," Lin Huayin said calmly.
Xiao Zheng was unhappy and frowned, "No matter how important work is, you still have to eat, right? Can't you deal with it tomorrow? "
"I told you, it's an urgent document," Lin Huayin said lightly.
"We can wait for you." Xiao Zheng urged him to stay. But in his heart, he was puzzled. Why did this woman say that she didn't want to go? No matter how busy he was, a meal wouldn't make a difference, right? Besides, today was her birthday. Was she really going to spend her birthday alone in the company?
"No need, I can go home very late." Lin Huayin said expressionlessly. Like a piece of thousand-year-old ice, stubborn and unchanging.
"Sis!" Lin Xiaozhu rushed to Lin Huayin's side and hugged her. "It wasn't easy for me to get a day off today just to celebrate your birthday with you. As the master, how can you not be here? "
"I really have something to do," Lin Huayin said with a slightly unnatural expression.
"Is there anything more important than having a meal with me?" Lin Xiaozhu said eagerly. "If you don't go, I will be very sad."
"Yes. Xiaozhu went home with great difficulty. Just think of it as accompanying her to have a meal. "Xiao Zheng saw that Lin Huayin's expression had loosened, so he added oil and vinegar. "You also know Xiaozhu's temper. She is quite vengeful."
Lin Huayin couldn't resist the persuasion of the two, and finally nodded and said, "Okay. I'll go change my clothes first. "
"No need!" Lin Xiaozhu said with a smile. "My sister is so beautiful and generous in whatever she wears!"
The crowd finally went out as scheduled and went to the vegetarian restaurant that Lin Huayin had booked in advance. Because it was mealtime, the restaurant was full of people, and it was very lively. The waiters were busy wiping the table, serving the dishes, and greeting the guests. There was a lot of noise.
The four people came to a quiet table under the guidance of a waiter. Leaning against the window, they could see the scene of the street lights, which was very comfortable.
Lin Huayin ordered a few familiar dishes and handed the menu to Xiao Zheng, which was to give him face in front of outsiders. However, Xiao Zheng directly handed the menu to Lin Xiaozhu and said dotingly, "Xiaozhu, brother-in-law will eat whatever you order."
Lin Xiaozhu's expression was slightly unnatural. She took the menu and handed it to Ye Yuhua like a hot potato, and said, "Auntie, you order."
Ye Yuhua smiled gently and said, "Auntie has eaten green vegetables and tofu on the mountain for 20 years, and I don't even know what the dishes on the menu look like. How do you order? "
"That-" Lin Xiaozhu hesitated. No matter how hard she tried to conceal it, in front of a woman with great wisdom like Ye Yuhua, and in front of Lin Huayin who understood her very well, no matter how well she disguised herself, how could she escape the penetrating eyes of the mother and daughter pair? Even the careless Xiao Zheng noticed that Lin Xiaozhu was different from the past tonight, and could not help urging. "I say, Xiaozhu, do you want brother-in-law to starve to death? Just order when I ask you to. Why are you so hesitant? "
Lin Xiaozhu, who originally thought that her brother-in-law was on her side, instantly felt very wronged. Her heart was full of sorrow, but she still had a sweet smile on her face. She quickly ordered a few dishes, and then handed the menu back to the waiter, adding, "Today is my sister's birthday. Give us a dozen more beers."
"Okay." The waiter left the table with a smile.
Lin Huayin never liked to talk, and Lin Xiaozhu was not as lively and cheerful as usual because of something on her mind. She became a little silent. On the contrary, as an outsider, Xiao Zheng kept enlivening the atmosphere, and shouted that he would get the birthday girl Lin Huayin drunk later. Lin Huayin did not express her opinion, but kept silent with a calm face.
"Auntie, do you have any other entertainment activities on the mountain in addition to chanting sutras?" Xiao Zheng casually talked about the daily life.
"Playing chess." Ye Yuhua said kindly.
"What chess?" Xiao Zheng suddenly became interested. "To tell you the truth, I have a lot of attainments in chess. I have confronted professional chess players before. Although I lost a little, I didn't lose badly. "
Ye Yuhua said with a smile, "I play chess."
Xiao Zheng's expression was stiff, and he said awkwardly, "I can't understand chess …"
"Chess is very simple. You will understand it after a game." Ye Yuhua smiled.
"Then teach me later. I am still very talented in chess. " Xiao Zheng tried to enliven the atmosphere, but found that except for Ye Yuhua who was as gentle as jade, the two sisters did not participate in the topic at all. Even Lin Xiaozhu, who had always been sharp-tongued, did not laugh at him for the first time, which was surprising.
When the dishes were served, Lin Xiaozhu, who was silent, finally let go. She picked up the glass and said to Lin Huayin, "Sister, I wish you a happy birthday, and then live a harmonious life with my brother-in-law, and work happily."
"Thank you." Lin Huayin raised the glass and said.
Lin Xiaozhu seemed to be unbearably thirsty, and she was also bored with her family, with indescribable melancholy.
