Although they did not plan to invite many people, Zhan Yilin and Liang Shuxian still tried their best to decorate the old house.
Because we are inviting very close friends and relatives, lunch will be eaten at home, a party will be held in the afternoon, and the cake cutting and dance will be held in the evening, so the old house must be decorated beautifully and be used for partying.
It can also be used as a dance hall for parties.
This requires a lot of materials and things.
In particular, they had to arrange these beautiful materials quietly without disturbing Xu Rongrong, but Zhan Yilin spent a lot of effort.
If only Chen Haoran hadn't been by her side doing manual labor, and she only needed to give instructions.
Otherwise, with her three-month pregnancy, she might not be able to bear it.
Now that Xu Rongrong is satisfied with his efforts, Zhan Yilin is also very happy.
As the sun gradually rises in the sky, friends have come one after another.
No, Ye Zi'an and his wife walked through the door of the old house, followed by Min Shiyan and his wife.
"Yilin, where is Rongrong?" After searching for a while but not seeing the host of today's birthday party, Ye Zi'an could only ask Zhan Yilin.
"I've been putting on makeup upstairs for more than an hour. It should be done soon," Zhan Yilin pointed to the upstairs and said with a smile.
"Rongrong must be very beautiful today, I want to go up and have a look." Ye Zi'an said as he put Nian'en on Ji Fanyi's lap, "Husband, you look like you know how to Nian'en, I'll go help Rongrong.
"
"Okay, wife, be careful when you go upstairs." Looking at the ten-centimeter high heels Ye Zi'an was wearing, Ji Fanyi shouted worriedly.
"Got it." Ye Zi'an nodded in agreement while pushing Xu Rongrong and Zhan Yiyang's bedroom away.
Downstairs, Ji Fanyi sighed helplessly.
It is not suitable for pregnant women to wear high heels, but Ye Zi said that it was rare for Rongrong to hold a banquet, so why should she appear in canvas shoes and sportswear?
Having said that, it's really dangerous.
Ji Fanyi lowered his head helplessly. He could not stop his wife. Although he was worried now, there was nothing he could do. He could only play with his daughter who was unable to pronounce her words correctly.
Over there, Min Shiyan saw his uneasiness and comforted him with a smile, "Fan Yi, high heels are not suitable for pregnant women to wear frequently, but once in a while, if you pay more attention, it is actually okay."
Min Shiyan is a doctor, and what he says is always right.
Ji Fanyi touched his daughter's tender cheek and thought that he could only pay more attention to his wife.
"Rongrong, my daughter, mom is here." Suddenly, a loud voice came, followed closely by He Huilan and Xu's father.
Xu Rongrong's tough mother was dressed in a festive outfit, smiling like a flower. She looked happily at the old house while walking, and kept praising the person who decorated the house for her good taste, which made Zhan Yilin happy.
Smirk.
Liang Shuxian went out to greet the in-laws, and Commander Zhan and Xu's father went to the study together.
About half an hour later, it was lunch time. Mrs. Li had been busy in the kitchen all morning, and her relatives and friends had almost arrived.
Liang Shuxian was about to call Ye Zi'an and Xu Rongrong in the bedroom to start dinner.
However, at this moment, someone rang the doorbell of the old house.
Liang Shuxian and Zhan Yilin looked at each other. All the invited relatives and friends were here. Who would ring the doorbell at this time?
However, she was confused, so Mrs. Li went to open the door anyway.
"Master, madam, this is Mrs. Ouyang and Miss Ouyang." Seeing the visitors, Mrs. Li shouted from a distance into the living room, surprising everyone in the living room.
Although the Ouyang family and the Zhan family are family friends, they were not included in the invitation list this time because Ouyang Jiaojiao has always been in love with Zhan Yiyang, and even for him, she has not yet married at the age of thirty.
Now, when holding a birthday party for Xu Rongrong, Ouyang Jiaojiao showed up. It was obvious that she did not come with good intentions.
Zhan Yilin gave Zhan Yiyang a questioning look, wanting to know what he was going to do.
Should we drive them out directly or bring them in?
However, it was obvious that not everyone was self-aware at this time. Zhan Yiyang hadn't spoken yet, while Ouyang Jiaojiao had already walked into the living room delicately.
"Brother Yiyang, Jiaojiao came to see you. Long time no see. Brother Yiyang, do you miss Jiaojiao?" Ouyang Jiaojiao, who is already twenty-nine years old and will soon enter her thirties, is still as charming as she was a few years ago.
When she said this, even her expression was extremely girlish, like a child who has not grown up.
Mrs. Ouyang was much calmer. She first handed the gift box in her hand to Sister-in-law Li, and then smiled and said to the commander, "As soon as Jiaojiao came back from England, I heard that Yiyang was holding a party at home. No, I haven't thought about it for a long time."
Seeing you, I insist on coming over to the party, Lao Zhan, don’t dislike our Jiaojiao family."
This was true. They were family friends after all. Commander Zhan could only respond with a smile, "Jiaojiao can come and play if she wants. But today is Rongrong's birthday, not a party. I hope Jiaojiao won't be disappointed."
"No, Uncle Zhan. Jiaojiao is already very happy to see Brother Yiyang. It doesn't matter if it's a party or not." As he said that, Ouyang Jiaojiao lowered her head shyly and used her peripheral vision to observe Zhan Yiyang's face.
expression on.
"Ahem."
Zhan Yiyang didn't respond to Ouyang Jiaojiao's words, and kept watching Tianning and Nian En playing with a blank expression. Rongrong's friends would not pay attention to Ouyang Jiaojiao, a guy who tried to ruin the relationship between Zhan Yiyang and Xu Rongrong, so they only
Zhan Yilin coughed twice, breaking the awkward scene of just a few seconds.
"Miss Ouyang, have you had lunch?" However, at this moment, Xu Rongrong, who had put on makeup, walked out.
Although he didn't remember who Ouyang Jiaojiao was, Xu Rongrong heard what she said to her husband just now.
After asking Ye Zi'an and Ouyang Jiaojiao about their identities, Xu Rongrong spoke calmly.
As soon as these words came out, Zhan Yiyang immediately raised his head. His expressionless face just now turned into a hint of tenderness. He looked at the beautiful and delicate Xu Rongrong and smiled and said, "Rongrong, are you hungry?"
"Yiyang, I'm not hungry." Xu Rongrong looked at him with the same smile, and then did not forget to say hello to the elders present, "Dad, mom, aunt..."
On the other side, Ouyang Jiaojiao looked at Zhan Yiyang with a gentle face angrily, her fingers almost torn to pieces.
Why, why brother Yiyang was so indifferent to him, but could be so gentle to that woman in the blink of an eye.
Why, Ouyang Jiaojiao never gets the love from brother Yiyang.
"Jiaojiao." Mrs. Ouyang, who noticed something was wrong next to her, called her in time, calling her back to her senses which was about to lose.
Ouyang Jiaojiao let out a long breath. She was no longer the shallow-minded woman who only clung to Zhan Yiyang. She knew how much losing her temper at this time would make Zhan Yiyang hate herself.
Looking at Zhan Yiyang's handsome and gentle profile, Ouyang Jiaojiao smiled confidently, "Mom, don't worry, I know how to do it."
Brother Yiyang will definitely turn out to be Jiaojiao in the end.
In front of the stairs, Ye Ye An, who was beside Xu Rongrong, keenly noticed Ouyang Jiaojiao's unkind gaze.
She touched Xu Rongrong with her arm, raised her mouth slightly angrily in Ouyang Jiaojiao's direction, "Someone covets your husband."
Xu Rongrong glanced at Ouyang Jiaojiao who was gearing up, "Yiyang wouldn't like that type."
You're so cute, if you were caught by the enemy, you'd probably be able to reveal Yiyang right away.
"Well, you should pay more attention to avoid being taken advantage of. You must know that women can be very cruel when they are cruel." Ye Zi'an said with emotion.
She had helped Ji Fanyi deal with numerous affairs in the past. She had seen women's various tricks, and those men would definitely be ashamed of themselves if she told them.
"In short, be careful." After thinking about it, Ye Zi'an finally told Xu Rongrong.
Xu Rongrong nodded. She had been kidnapped by the organization and taken to a small island before. She had seen the cruelty of Pin Ruiyun and Wei An.
Sometimes when a woman is cruel, it's really scary.
At this moment, Ouyang Jiaojiao had spontaneously sat on the sofa, not too far away from Zhan Yiyang.
Seeing this, Xu Rongrong smiled faintly, walked over and sat next to Zhan Yiyang, "Sister-in-law Li, get ready for dinner. Tianning is already hungry."
When he heard his mother calling his name, Tianning, who was playing games with Nian En hand in hand, raised his head and smiled at Xu Rongrong, "Happy birthday, mom."
And Xiao Nianen, who was following Tianning, also muttered inarticulately, "Happy birthday, mom."
Xu Rongrong burst out laughing. If he was moved when he heard Tian Ning speak, then when he heard Nian En's words, Xu Rongrong could only laugh.
"Zi Zi, look, Nian En knew that her mother-in-law was going to call her mom at such a young age." Xu Rongrong smiled and looked at Ye Zi'an.
Ye Zi'an shook her head sadly, "Girls are outgoing. Before they get married, they call me mom first."
Xu Rongrong, "..."
Sister-in-law Li's cooking skills are very good. As the dishes kept coming, everyone started to use their chopsticks to eat.
Xu Rongrong was eating rice when a piece of chicken breast fell into the bowl. She looked up and saw Zhan Yiyang's affectionate eyes as expected.
"Eat more meat, I have lost a lot of weight recently." Zhan Yiyang told Xu Rongrong softly while picking up vegetables.
After all, with so many relatives and friends watching, Xu Rongrong nodded sheepishly and said nothing.
On the other side, Ouyang Jiaojiao was unwilling to give in.
Her watery eyes stared at Zhan Yiyang, as if she would shed tears in the next second, "Brother Yiyang, can you help Jiaojiao pick up the dishes? Jiaojiao can't reach her."
…
Xu Rongrong was no longer calm.
This was too nakedly provocative. As soon as Zhan Yiyang finished picking up the food for himself, she wanted to help pick up the food. It was totally intentional.
Although she knew that Zhan Yiyang would ignore her, Xu Rongrong still felt a little unhappy in her heart.
Over there, Ouyang Jiaojiao's big eyes were full of expectation, still waiting for Zhan Yiyang to help pick up the food.
But Zhan Yiyang ignored her at all.
Now he was only focused on picking fish bones for Xu Rongrong and turned a blind eye to Ouyang Jiaojiao's request.
"Brother Yiyang." There was a hazy mist in Ouyang Jiaojiao's eyes. She didn't expect that he would be so heartless and wouldn't even take a piece of food for himself. Did he really forget his childhood sweetheart for so many years?
However, just when Ouyang Jiaojiao's tears were about to fall, a piece of beef fell into Ouyang Jiaojiao's bowl.
