One person spoke first, and the subsequent greetings sounded like ripples.
Xu Shengyu nodded on behalf of everyone, waved his hand, and the greetings were suppressed.
"Grandpa, you are here." Xu Shengyu walked up to the old man and said first: "How are you doing during this time? I heard that you went to the mountainous area. There has been no signal there, and we can't get your news in time.
How is your health?"
Xu Youyu took a step forward and looked at Xu Ziping seriously, "Let me check you out after the dinner is over. Grandma's research is at a critical moment. She won't be back for your birthday, so let me check you out."
.”
Xu Ziping nodded slightly and his eyes fell on Xu Xuanyu.
I haven’t seen this little guy for a long time. I had long heard that she would come today, and indeed she came.
It can be seen that when he saw himself, the little guy didn't pounce on him like he did when he was a child. He must be angry with him, right?
Xu Ziping's face darkened involuntarily. When this little guy showed his newly censored movie to his classmates, the original film was leaked and the entire documentary was ruined. He only said a few words to her, and she said
I can't see him in a bad temper.
Four or five years have passed and she came to celebrate his birthday. Doesn't this mean that she knows she was wrong and wants to apologize to him?
But an apology should look like an apology. What's the point of not saying a word? Do you want an old guy like him to take the initiative to talk to her?
Xu Ziping's face was calm and he looked unhappy, but in his heart he began to think about how to open this conversation with Xu Xuanyu in the first place.
"Ancestor, you... don't seem happy?"
Xu Youyou stepped forward. This was a good opportunity to show her face in front of her immediate adults. She didn't want to miss this opportunity.
Last year, the old man just complimented her on how cute she was, and her uncles treated her like a treasure. They even gave her family an extra penny in dividends, which was a big income for their family.
Having received a lot of benefits, Xu Youyou just wants to keep up her efforts and make the adults in her immediate family remember her better, so that other side families can admire her even more.
Knowing that this was not the occasion for her to speak, Xu Youyou still said first: "Let's not stand here anymore. Let's let our ancestors go to their seats to rest."
"Four uncles and Aunt Xuanyu, let's let our ancestors rest first and then chat, okay?"
Xu Xuanyu's eyes flickered and slowly fell on Xu Youyou.
The girl who dared to interrupt in front of them looked about the same age as herself, with long pink hair hanging loose, with a few strands of red highlights, and thick smoky makeup. In this magnificent banquet hall,
Xu Youyou's non-mainstream outfit is very eye-catching.
Xu Xuanyu couldn't help but frown. Looking at Xu Youyou's outfit, she seemed to have thought of something, and then a hint of horror appeared in her big eyes.
She...she was dressed like this when she was bewitched by Xu Ziling a few years ago, right?
It was also because of this eye-catching outfit that netizens gave her the nickname "pepper bottle".
But now, when she suddenly saw Xu Youyou's outfit, the corners of Xu Xuanyu's mouth couldn't help but twitch, and she couldn't bear to look away.
"Sit down first and then talk." Xu Ziping narrowed his eyes. His attention was always on Xu Xuanyu. Seeing the little guy's subtle expression, he couldn't help but want to laugh.
This little guy is still the same as before. He is obviously a big kid, but everything he thinks is written on his face, making it easy for people to see through it at a glance.
She had grown up, but to him, she was not fully grown up.
…
Everyone was seated. Xu Youyou wanted to shamelessly take a seat at the main table, but she didn't dare.
You can get a lot of things if you flatter yourself, but if you go offside, you will die without a place to die.
Xu Youyou could only watch helplessly as Xu Xuanyu and the others sat down, and then looked at Yun Xier with envy as she sat next to Xu Xuanyu. She stood at the table unwillingly, acted as a waiter, and began to pour tea for everyone.
.
"Ancestor, you drink tea, and my uncles also drink tea."
"Aunt Xuanyu, would you like tea or juice?"
Coming to Xu Xuanyu, Xu Youyou asked flatteringly: "Is this lady next to you your friend? She is so beautiful. I don't know what to call her?"
Xu Xuanyu raised his eyes and glanced at Xu Youyou, who was extremely attentive, but did not speak to her.
She turned to look at Xu Haoyan, her dark eyes filled with anxiety.
Xu Haoyan was stunned for a moment, not understanding Yao'er's eyes, and subconsciously asked: "What's wrong with you, Yao'er? What's so urgent?"
Xu Xuanyu looked at the old man, and then looked at Xu Haoyan eagerly, as if he wanted Xu Haoyan to wish her a quick birthday so that she could talk easily.
Xu Haoyan was a little confused. He could only see that Yao'er was anxious, but he didn't realize what he was anxious about.
Xu Youyou, who was still bending down and waiting for Xu Xuanyu's reply, was also stunned. She didn't care at all that she was ignored by Xu Xuanyu. As a collateral line, she was just a subordinate in front of her direct line, wasn't she just being ignored? This is normal.
.
"Aunt Xuanyu, do you... want to say something?" Xu Youyou looked at Xu Haoyan, "Uncle Yan, is there anything that Aunt Xuanyu wants to say to you alone?"
Xu Haoyan tilted his head and became even more confused.
Xu Anzhe glanced at him and said impatiently: "Yao'er asked you to wish grandpa his birthday first, and then it's my turn and her turn. Don't you understand such an obvious meaning?"
Xu Xuanyu nodded immediately. If her grandfather hadn't been there, she would have spoken long ago for fear of giving him the impression of being rude.
When she came back to coax her grandpa this time, Xu Xuanyu had planned it for more than ten days. She had a pretty complete plan. The polite birthday greeting was just the first step. In her expectation, it was a very simple step, but she unexpectedly got stuck on Xu Haoyan.
Here it is.
Thinking about it, Xu Xuanyu couldn't help but stretched out his little hand and pinched Xu Haoyan secretly, signaling him to say hello to his grandfather quickly.
Xu Haoyan's mouth twitched in pain, and he immediately turned to Xu Ziping and said: "Happy birthday, grandpa. Grandpa may live forever. Grandpa may live as long as the sky. Grandpa... good evening."
Xu Ziping: "..."
Xu Xuanyu: "..."
It’s another day when I think about losing my grandson (brother).
Xu Anzhe followed up and said: "I hope grandpa can have this day every year and every year."
Then he looked at Xu Xuanyu and saw Xu Xuanyu's impatient look. Xu Anzhe smiled fondly and said: "It's Yao'er's turn next. She has specially prepared a lot of things to celebrate my grandpa's birthday. Grandpa sees
I’ll definitely like it.”
Xu Xuanyu opened his small mouth, and his big eyes stared straight at Xu Anzhe, as if he was accusing his fourth brother of spoiling the story in advance.
But the next second, she raised her smile again and faced Xu Ziping with a smile, "Happy birthday, grandpa~ I haven't seen you for a long time. You are so handsome. You must have confused many middle-aged and elderly women, right?"
Xu Ziping: "...I haven't seen you for a few years, but you are still as naughty as before."
The old man had a stern face, but there was a hint of smile in his eyes, and he seemed a little proud.
