"Okay, now that everyone is here, you guys sit down for a while. Xiaoyan, go and ask your dad and the others to come over." He Hande ordered.
He Yan nodded and walked out of the living room.
Chen Zhan and He Lingyu sat down on the sofa cautiously.
Chen Xuan took a look at the decoration of this villa and found that it was indeed very luxurious.
It seems that my second uncle's company has developed well in recent years, otherwise it would be impossible to afford such a good house.
"Dad, they're cooking inside. Can I help?" He Lingyu heard the sound of cooking in the kitchen, looked towards the kitchen, and saw several people dressed as chefs busy.
Before He Hande could speak, He Yingying, who was playing with her children, couldn't help laughing and said: "Auntie, the kitchen is full of chefs from the provincial capital we invited, so I don't need to trouble you to help! And today is New Year's Eve.
Wei Lu, you are from the countryside, how can you serve the food you prepare?"
Hearing He Yingying's words, He Lingyu suddenly looked embarrassed.
It is true that her cooking skills cannot be compared with top chefs in the provincial capital.
He Hande had no intention of letting her come into the kitchen to help.
When Chen Xuan saw He Yingying talking to his mother like this, his expression immediately darkened.
Grandpa just scolded He Lingyu, but Chen Xuan, as a grandson, held back and did not speak.
But facing He Yingying, Chen Xuan was not polite: "Cousin Yingying, grandpa, your father and my mother are both from the countryside. You grew up in the countryside when you were four or five years old. Why, you look down on the countryside.
Human cooking skills?”
What He Yingying hates most is being told that she is from a rural area, which is even more serious than saying that she is not beautiful.
And it was her cousin from the countryside who looked down upon her who said this.
He Yingying suddenly became angry and said disdainfully: "Our He family is not from the countryside. Rural people can afford to live in such a nice villa? It's not like your family. They have been living in the village. Can the food they cook be edible? Give it to me.
The puppies won’t even eat it!”
"Then what you ate when you were a kid was all pig food and dog food?" Chen Xuan sneered, tit for tat.
"What did you say?" He Yingying raised her eyebrows, her anger grew, and she was about to scold Chen Xuan.
"Okay! Stop arguing!"
He Hande stopped him, and He Yingying restrained herself from having an attack.
Then He Hande glanced at Chen Xuan, a look of disappointment flashed across his eyes.
I haven’t seen him for several years, and this grandson is still as speechless as ever.
He Hande didn't like hearing what Chen Xuan said just now.
The He family has now broken away from the peasant class and has long ceased to be rural people.
Moreover, the He family is about to enter the provincial capital to develop its business. From now on, the people they will associate with are all famous families from the upper class of the province. However, these families cannot be allowed to know that the He family is from a rural background, so that they will be looked down upon and unwilling to cooperate with the He family.
"Xiaoxuan, you are not allowed to mention that our family is from a rural area in the future, do you understand?" He Hande said in a lecturing tone.
Chen Xuan had a sullen face and did not answer.
He Hande shook his head slightly and continued watching TV.
He Yingying put on a proud smile, as if declaring victory to Chen Xuan.
Soon He Yan followed He Hande's instructions and brought the entire He family to the villa hall.
So many descendants of the He family gathered together, and it was very lively.
Seeing that there were not enough seats, He Lingyu and Chen Zhan wanted to stand up, but were pushed down by Chen Xuan.
"Dad, Mom, you are the elders, you don't have to give up your seat to others."
At this time, all the He family members noticed the arrival of Chen Xuan's family.
Chen Xuan and Chen Zhan greeted the four families of He Jinji, He Jinhui, He Jincai and He Lingbi in turn.
After some simple greetings, the elders of He family sat down one after another.
The young people stood together and whispered to each other, talking a lot, and the focus of the discussion was on Chen Xuan.
He Yingying also joined the discussion.
I saw my cousins who were just ordinary children back then, and now they are all wearing famous brands, looking glamorous, and they have become young masters and ladies from rich families.
Chen Xuan only felt that these relatives were even stranger.
And I am incompatible with them, and it is impossible to integrate into their circle.
Of course, Chen Xuan doesn't care about this. Being with his parents is the most important thing.
At this time, He Yan, one of the younger generation, came over, smiled at Chen Xuan and said, "Cousin, would you like to come over and chat together? The fireside party will not start until half an hour later."
"No need." Chen Xuan said lightly.
Seeing that Chen Xuan seemed a little unhappy, He Yan immediately lowered her voice and said: "Chen Xuan, my cousin didn't tell anyone what happened to you in Panjiao Town."
"I know." Chen Xuan felt a little fond of this eldest cousin.
And if He Yan really tells what happened in Panjiao Town, then these relatives' attitude towards him will definitely be different.
Grandpa He Hande might even kick him out on the spot.
Because He Hande attaches great importance to the reputation of the He family, and He Jinji is a civil servant, how can the He family be related to people in the underground world?
"Chen Xuan, do you really not want to come over and chat with us? You haven't been here for several years. My cousin will introduce you to your brothers and sisters." He Yan still invited her kindly.
When Chen Xuan was about to refuse again, He Lingyu on the side said: "Xiao Xuan, your cousin has said so. You should go over and talk to your cousins and get in touch to get familiar with each other."
He Lingyu didn't want her son, as a young man, to sit alone here, looking very unsocial and giving a bad impression to the elders.
When Chen Xuan saw his mother saying this, he could only stand up and follow He Yan to the circle of young people in the He family.
Seeing that the eldest cousin actually brought Chen Xuan over, the dozen young people all looked surprised.
Could it be that He Yan wanted Chen Xuan to integrate into the circle of the younger generation of their He family?
This is absolutely impossible, and they will never agree to it!
Among them, He Yan's younger brother, He Yingchu, said in confusion: "Sister, why did you bring him here?"
"Yingchu, Chen Xuan and we haven't seen each other for several years. Let's chat and get acquainted." He Yan said, secretly glaring at He Yingchu to tell him not to be rude.
He Yingchu did not hide his disdain: "We are not on the same level, how can we talk?"
Following his words, other young people in the He family showed playful expressions.
He Yingying even chuckled.
Chen Xuan suppressed his anger and glanced at He Yingchu.
He knew that his uncle had three children, and the eldest son was married, so he did not chat with the young people, but stayed with the elders.
Next are the second daughter He Yan and the third son He Yingchu.
Based on age calculations, Chen Xuan guessed that He Yingchu was already in college.
"Yingchu, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and say hello to your cousin!" He Yan scolded.
"Hello, cousin!" He Yingchu greeted Chen Xuan with a lazy tone and no sincerity.
Then He Yan introduced other young people from the He family.
Chen Xuan glanced around following He Yan's introduction, and only two young people among them could attract his attention.
