Xiao Yixue was suddenly startled and a little surprised in her heart. She didn't know what her cousin was causing trouble.
Although Xiao Yixue did not say anything to her cousin's initiative to greet her, she still nodded slightly as a polite response.
After Xiao Jinmei said hello, she always had a smile on her pretty face, and without stopping to say anything, she just passed by Xiao Yixue, Xiao Yutong, and Yunchuan, and went straight into the front lobby.
"Sister, our cousin has the legendary gender change?"
Xiao Yutong looked back at Xiao Jinmei's back, and curiously whispered to Xiao Yixue: "Why did she suddenly change so much? I almost don't recognize her anymore."
Yunchuan's eyes flickered for a moment, and he couldn't help but feel thoughtful. He felt that Xiao Jinmei's change might be related to what happened last night.
Thinking like this in my heart.
Yun Chuan remained silent and did not answer Xiao Yutong's words. He went out of his way to explain more.
It didn't matter to him how Xiao Jinmei changed, and he had no interest in paying attention to it.
"Not sure."
Xiao Yixue shook her head and said softly: "No matter what, she is our cousin. She is willing to let go of her prejudices. Naturally, I don't want to have such a stiff relationship with her."
She sighed softly in her heart. In fact, when she was very young, there was a period of time when she and Xiao Jinmei had a very good relationship. The two often played closely together and had a beautiful sisterly relationship.
"oh."
Xiao Yutong nodded, knowing that her sister Xiao Yixue was actually a cold-faced and kind-hearted person, so she didn't say anything more.
Several people walked to the lobby of the central courtyard. Almost all the Xiao family members were present, and it was very lively.
These people include Xiao Yixue's parents, Xiao Zhenwen and his wife, the eldest sister Xiao Fei and her eldest brother-in-law Huang Keran, as well as the second sister Xiao Yu and her second brother-in-law Xu Bin.
Just like the last Xiao Jiang birthday banquet, when Xiao Yixue walked into the lobby, almost the entire lobby was a little excited, and many Xiao family members took the initiative to greet her enthusiastically.
Xiao Yixue is the pride of the entire Xiao family, and is also a face that the Xiao family can proudly brag about outside the home.
What is different from the last Xiao Jiang birthday banquet is that maybe it is because Yunchuan gave away the longevity pill last time.
This time when Yun Chuan came here, it seemed that Xiao Jianghai had ordered him a long time ago. Although there were still many Xiao family members who looked at him coldly, no one from the Xiao family dared to come forward and taunt him.
Yunchuan was also happy to see this situation. He found a corner by himself, sat down with nothing to do, and quietly waited for the Xiao family's banquet to begin.
At this time, a middle-aged and elderly woman in her fifties, wearing a floral shirt and a dignified face, walked quickly into the lobby.
"Aunt Lian."
"Hello Aunt Lian."
Seeing this woman walking in, many members of the Xiao family from the later generation smiled and greeted her.
This woman's name is Chen Lian. Although she is just the housekeeper and nanny of the Xiao family, she has devoted herself to the Xiao family for decades. Xiao Jianghai's wife died early, and she has been taking care of Xiao Jianghai, so the entire Xiao family is relatively
Respect her.
Chen Lian smiled kindly and briefly responded to the Xiao family members who greeted them.
Then, she walked straight to Yun Chuan, smiled at the latter and said, "Mr. Yun, Lao Xiao asked you to go to his study. He wants to chat with you."
The Lao Xiao she refers to is naturally Xiao Jianghai. Although Xiao Jianghai is over seventy years old, based on the decades of relationship between the two, no one thinks there is anything wrong with her calling Xiao Jianghai Lao Xiao.
"OK."
Hearing that Xiao Jianghai wanted to see him, Yunchuan nodded and immediately followed Chen Lian out of the lobby to Xiao Jianghai's study without asking any questions.
In the lobby, many Xiao family members noticed this scene and did not feel any surprise in their hearts.
Yunchuan actually gave a longevity pill to his old man last time. Looking back on it, it was normal for the old man to meet Yunchuan alone.
A few minutes later.
Yun Chuan followed Chen Lian to Xiao Jianghai's study.
It's no surprise that in Xiao Jianghai's study, there are rows of black and yellowish wooden bookshelves, not only medical books, but also medical books.
After Chen Lian brought Yunchuan to the study, she left the study silently.
at this time.
Xiao Jianghai was holding a writing brush, bending his waist, scolding Fang Qiu on the white paper, and writing words on a simple desk.
Yunchuan stood in front of the desk with a calm expression and did not bother Xiao Jianghai. He patiently waited for Xiao Jianghai to finish writing.
I don't know whether Xiao Jianghai did it intentionally or not, as if he was testing Yunchuan's patience, he started writing as fast as an old man playing chess, each stroke was drawn very slowly.
It wasn't until almost half an hour passed that Xiao Jianghai stopped writing and finished writing.
He lowered his head slightly and blew gently to let the written ink dry quickly, and suddenly said: "How about these two words?"
There was no one else here. Yunchuan knew that Xiao Jianghai was asking him, so he glanced at the ink pen on the white paper, and then replied concisely: "There is a mood."
Xiao Jianghai wrote the two characters "Xiao" and "Zhan", which together seem to be a personal name, Xiao Zhan.
"Mood... Haha!"
Xiao Jianghai shuddered, and then suddenly burst into inexplicable laughter. The old laughter was mixed with a bit of incomprehensible desolation, which was very thought-provoking.
Seeing Xiao Jianghai like this.
Yun Chuan's eyes flashed, and he felt a little confused, but he didn't say much.
After a while.
Xiao Jianghai then gradually stopped laughing. His cloudy eyes were bright, as if he were meeting Yun Chuan for the first time. He stared at Yun Chuan like lightning, and suddenly fell silent again.
The expression on Yun Chuan's face was calm, and he looked at Xiao Jianghai silently, without any hint of cowardice.
moment.
"You are indeed not simple."
Xiao Jianghai suddenly chuckled and took the lead in breaking the quiet atmosphere. He squinted at Yunchuan and said with a faint smile: "For you, the old man has made a mistake. Our entire Xiao family has made a mistake. Now I should call you
I call you grandson-in-law, or should I call you Master Yun?"
As soon as Xiao Jianghai said these words.
Yunchuan's pupils suddenly shrank, and then his face quickly returned to calm. He chuckled and said, "Grandpa Xiao, just call me Yunchuan."
Xiao Jianghai will know that he is Master Yun, and after thinking about it for a moment, he will know that it was Xiao Jinmei who revealed it.
Yun Chuan was a little surprised. He didn't expect Xiao Jinmei to directly inform the Xiao family of Master Yun's identity, and the person who informed him was the most important person in the Xiao family, Xiao Jianghai.
According to his opinion, Xiao Jinmei probably didn't want other Xiao family members to know that he was Master Yun.
After all, his image in the hearts of the Xiao family has always been that of an incompetent, useless son-in-law.
