Family banquet.
Family and banquet.
The whole family sat together to eat. This was called a family banquet.
Family banquets were so ordinary that there was nothing special about them. They just needed the whole family to sit together and have a happy meal.
Hua Xia was very big, so customs may be a little different from place to place.
In some places, even the most high-end and expensive restaurant could not be regarded as the highest standard for receiving guests.
The real highest standard was to invite the guest to the house for a seemingly ordinary home-cooked meal.
Family banquet.
Chen Xi had never eaten a family banquet.
The one he had eaten with Yingying before was called a couple's meal.
Chen Xi returned to the main hall and saw the little fellow standing on the chair, quietly eating the dishes on the table.
She knew how to use chopsticks, but she didn't like to use them.
Usually, she ate rice in soup, so she usually used a spoon.
Chen Xi served the main dish today.
The little fellow tried a few times and found that she couldn't pick up the dishes, so she simply threw down the chopsticks and grabbed the dishes with her hands.
Chen Xi quietly walked not far from her and coughed softly.
Because he was afraid of scaring her, Chen Xi deliberately lowered his voice.
But he didn't expect that such a small voice would startle the little fellow. She immediately threw away the braised goose slice in her hand in a panic.
"Papa … I didn't steal it!"
As she spoke, the little fellow quickly wiped the oil on her mouth.
Seeing that her hands and mouth were full of oil, Chen Xi sat beside her, then took out a tissue and helped her wipe it carefully.
As if afraid that her father would be angry, the little fellow immediately pouted and put on a pitiful look.
Seeing this, Chen Xi rubbed her head and said with a smile, "Good girl, eat when you're hungry. It's okay."
As he spoke, Chen Xi stood up and handed her the braised goose leg on the table.
The little fellow was a little clever. She knew not to take the biggest and most conspicuous braised goose leg, but only some seemingly inconspicuous braised goose slices.
"Papa is so nice!"
After receiving the braised goose leg, the little fellow was immediately overjoyed. She smiled so widely that flowers were about to bloom on her little face.
After taking a big bite, she handed the braised goose back to Big Cat while chewing. She said with a lisp, "Big Cat, come, you eat too."
Hearing this, the Big Cat quickly jumped to the little guy's side. After taking a bite, it started to meow.
This fellow was a monster that had cultivated successfully, and the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth had already washed away the filth on its body, so Chen Xi didn't mind the little fellow eating with it.
Chen Xi waited for a moment.
Seeing that she was happy, he pulled her to his side and looked into her eyes. He said seriously, "Niannian, promise me that you won't lie anymore … You can tell me whatever you want. As long as it's reasonable, I'll agree to it. Do you understand?"
The little guy was stunned for a moment.
After hesitating for a moment, she nodded gently and replied weakly with a pout, "Okay, I won't lie …"
"Good girl."
Chen Xi pinched her little face.
At this time, Qin Xueqing also walked into the main hall.
After seeing her sit down, Chen Xi turned his head and looked in the direction of the study.
To be honest, he still hadn't decided what kind of attitude he should use to face Qin Yongyan …
Since ancient times, the relationship between father and son-in-law was slightly better than the relationship between mother and daughter-in-law.
But this didn't mean that there wouldn't be conflicts between father and son-in-law.
As the saying goes, the more a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she likes him.
However, there was no uniform way for a father-in-law to look at his son-in-law.
Perhaps it was because mature men were more reserved, so they would hide some of their thoughts in their hearts and wouldn't make a conclusion easily.
Even if they liked or disliked him, the father-in-law wouldn't easily express it.
Before arriving home, Qin Ruoying proposed to eat outside, but Chen Xi said that he wanted to let her try his cooking.
Qin Ruoying couldn't persuade him, so there was this sumptuous meal in front of her.
In fact, eating wasn't the main point.
Meeting Yingying's father officially was the main point of this dinner.
Chen Xi and Qin Yongyan, this father-in-law and son-in-law, had a very subtle relationship.
Niannian was already four years old when Qin Yongyan just found out that he had a granddaughter.
And as his son-in-law, Chen Xi showed his invincible power in the village in the morning, showing his absolute power that was beyond imagination.
Everything that happened.
What kind of experience would Qin Yongyan have?
Chen Xi couldn't imagine it from his perspective.
After all, he wasn't involved …
Anyway, what's done is done, and he had finished eating. His father-in-law couldn't possibly ask him to spit it out, right?
After waiting for a while.
Qin Ruoying and Qin Yongyan arrived.
As soon as they walked into the main hall, Chen Xi was about to get up and greet them.
Like Qin Xueqing, Chen Xi still hadn't figured out how to address Qin Yongyan.
Yingying wasn't his legal wife after all.
They were already engaged, so it wouldn't be good to call him dad directly.
Niannian was already four years old, and she was still calling him grandpa sweetly. But he was calling Qin Yongyan uncle. Wouldn't that seem too distant?
How should he address him?
It was so annoying.
Even an immortal would worry about such trivial matters.
While Chen Xi was still worrying, Qin Yongyan's reaction immediately eased Chen Xi's awkwardness.
Qin Yongyan followed Qin Ruoying into the main hall.
Seeing that Chen Xi was about to get up, he immediately stopped Chen Xi, and then said with a smile, "You've worked hard. Sit down."
After that, he directly sat down at the head of the table in front of the red sandalwood carving table.
"After waiting for so long, the children must be hungry. Let's have a taste. Is the master's cooking as good as his swordsmanship … "
Qin Yongyan said with a smile, but quietly made a small joke with Chen Xi.
As soon as he said that, Qin Xueqing's hand, which was about to pick up the chopsticks, suddenly trembled.
She was a Wu Dao guru, but now even holding a pair of chopsticks was trembling.
It was easy to imagine how complicated her feelings were right now.
After all, she wasn't as shrewd and calm as Qin Yongyan.
After secretly glancing at Chen Xi, she picked up the chopsticks and directly started to eat.
At this time, Chen Xi got up and pushed the small bowl of golden wings to Qin Yongyan, and then said with a smile, "Sorry to make a fool of myself. This small bowl of golden wings is my specialty. Would you like to have a taste?"
"Haha, then I won't stand on ceremony."
"Please."
A seemingly ordinary family feast began amidst this harmonious atmosphere.
During the banquet, Qin Yongyan kept chatting with Chen Xi about various trivial matters.
Qin Ruoying was responsible for serving the little girl.
Only Qin Xueqing was restless and felt very awkward.
After finishing the rice quickly, she immediately got up and said, "I'm full. Uncle, sister, take your time …"
After that, Qin Xueqing turned to leave.
However, at this time.
Qin Yongyan suddenly stopped her and asked with a smile, "Xueqing, did you talk to your father on the phone?"
Qin Xueqing nodded and replied, "Yes, they will come back after a while."
"Oh, okay."
Qin Yongyan nodded, but then suddenly pointed to her seat and said with a smile, "There are guests at home. You can be considered as half the host here. Don't be in a hurry to leave. Sit down for a while."
"Ah?"
Qin Xueqing looked at Qin Yongyan with a little surprise.
Seeing that he was looking at her with a smile, Qin Xueqing couldn't help but hesitate for a moment, and then reluctantly sat down again.
Chen Xi glanced at Qin Xueqing. After seeing her sit down, he suddenly said to Qin Yongyan, "Uncle Qin, sorry for calling you like this …"
Hearing this, Qin Yongyan immediately turned to look at Chen Xi.
He still had a smile on his face. He just looked at Chen Xi with a smile and didn't say anything.
Seeing this, Chen Xi also smiled.
He gently held Qin Ruoying's hand under the table, and then said with a smile, "Niannian is already four years old, but I still owe Yingying a romantic wedding …"
"So, I hope to hold this wedding for her under your witness. What do you think …"
"Can you?"
Before Qin Yongyan could answer, Qin Ruoying had already turned her head and looked at Chen Xi in a daze.
Wedding.
She really never thought about it.
Chen Xi had actually been keeping this matter in her heart ….
Drinking wine and growing old together.
