C886 Diet
Mom looked at Dad, then looked at everyone with a happy smile on her face. "Hey, so many kids are here. "Come, everyone, no need to be polite. Eat some food and try auntie's cooking skills."
After saying that, her mother picked up her chopsticks and gave Dong Xue some food.
I knew why my mother gave Dong Xue the food first. Dong Xue's identity was undoubtedly the most sensitive and special one among the people who came today. Since my mother understood this, she intentionally gave Dong Xue the food first.
Dong Xue was moved and relieved. She nodded to her mother and said, "Thank you, Auntie."
Mother kindly said to Dong Xue, "Dong Xue, this is the first time you've come to auntie's house. Since you know Ke and everyone else, this is fate. You are all good children, and in the eyes of your uncles and aunts, you are all good children. Auntie and Uncle would love to see you all doing well, living happily, working smoothly, and also want you all to be good friends. "
Dong Xue nodded, "Yes." Auntie, don't worry. We are all good friends. Our relationship is very good. It used to be very good, but it will be very good in the future as well. "
"Hur hur, that's good." Her mother was smiling happily with a bit of relief in her eyes. She looked at Dong Xue and then at everyone else.
Dong Xue put the dish into her mouth and ate it slowly. She nodded as she said, "The dishes that auntie cooks are so delicious and fragrant."
Xia Yu sat there, looking unblinkingly at her mother, her eyes full of expectation.
Xia Yu's mother then gave her food, "Xia Yu, this is the first time you've come to auntie's house. Welcome, come, have a taste of our southern cuisine. I don't know if it's to your liking."
Xia Yu ate the food her mother had given her, smacking her lips as she kept nodding her head. "It's delicious, it's delicious. I really like eating the food my aunt made. I really want to keep eating!"
Mom laughed. "Then you can come often. Auntie will cook for you often!"
"Alright, alright, I will definitely come often!" Xia Yu was amused.
Mom laughed and then gave Hai Zhu food, "Hai Zhu, aunty thought that you would come to our house for the new year, but didn't expect that you and Haifeng would go overseas for the new year. Hehe, I'm a bit sorry, but it's not too late now, aunty and uncle miss you a lot.
Dong Xue and Xia Yu looked at their mother, then looked at Hai Zhu. Xia Yu had an envious expression in her eyes, while Dong Xue lowered her eyes.
Hai Zhu smiled as she lowered her head to eat.
Mom picked it up and served Qiu Tong and Yun.
At this moment, Snowy shouted, "Grandmother is biased and won't give me food."
Everyone started laughing, and then Mom put a big piece of chicken winter bamboo shoot onto the plate in front of Snowy. "Good granddaughter, come here, Grandma will give you a big one, you dug this up yourself. Snowy, you are so capable. After digging so many winter bamboo shoots, we are all eating the fruits of your labour today. "
Snowy giggled. She was very happy and very proud.
At this moment, Dad raised his cup and looked at Haifeng and me. "Ke, Haifeng, come, let's have a drink!"
Haifeng and I raised our cups. Haifeng respectfully clinked them with his father: "Uncle, this is for you."
Dad looked at Haifeng: "Haifeng, good day to your dad. If there's a chance, let's brothers have a drink. "
Haifeng nodded: "Okay, of course! "Come, uncle, I will drink first. This goblet of wine wishes you good health!"
Everyone drank a glass of wine.
Then everyone began to eat and drink.
Dong Xue raised her glass and looked at her parents, "Uncle, auntie, let me first toast the two of you. Dong Xue raised her glass of wine and looked at her parents," Uncle, auntie, let me toast the two of you.
When Dong Xue said "our family," the word was clearly hers.
Mom and Dad obviously noticed Dong Xue's words and were slightly stunned. Mom couldn't help but glance at Hai Zhu.
His father then laughed, "Come, Dong Xue, drink this goblet of wine. We wish all of our families peace and harmony and the health and longevity of your parents."
Father's words were very appropriate.
Dong Xue smiled. "Thank you, uncle and aunt —"
Then Dong Xue and her parents had a drink together.
Xia Yu looked a little anxious. She hurriedly raised her glass and said to her parents, "Uncle, Auntie, let me toast your drinks too." I also wish you a healthy and longevity, and I wish you a harmonious and beautiful family! "
Dong Xue glared at Xia Yu. Xia Yu didn't even spare a glance for Dong Xue.
Mom and Dad laughed. They looked at Xia Yu and raised their cups. Mom said, "Xia Yu, your uncle and I wish your parents a long and healthy life. I wish your family the best of luck. "
Xia Yu suddenly said, "I don't have a mother anymore. I only have a father and brother at home."
"Oh." Mom and Dad were slightly stunned. Mom looked at Xia Yu with eyes full of pity and love, saying, "Child, so … "So it turns out that you are also …"
Mom did not say the obvious words: "So you are just like Qiu Tong, no mother without a mother to love the child."
Xia Yu continued, "But today, when I saw my uncle and aunt, I felt like I was with my parents. "I'm very happy."
Mom nodded reassuringly. "That's good. "Good child, then I wish your father and brother a toast."
Xia Yu and her parents also had a glass of wine.
Hai Zhu lowered her head to eat in silence and did not raise her glass to drink with her parents.
Qiu Tong didn't say anything as well, she only focused on taking care of Snowy for a meal.
Yun Yang sat quietly at the side eating. Occasionally, he would glance at Dong Xue, Xia Yu, and then at Hai Zhu. There were traces of unease and apprehension in his eyes.
Mom and Dad would occasionally glance at Hai Zhu while greeting everyone for dinner. Mom's gaze towards Hai Zhu seemed to be somewhat cautious.
Everyone seemed to be eating in harmony, but it seemed as if they were each having their own thoughts.
After dinner, Xia Yu and Dong Xue rushed to help mother clean up the table. Xiaoxue was tired from playing and was feeling a little sleepy, so Qiu Tong brought her to her own room. Yun Li silently picked up a broom and cleaned the floor while Hai Zhu sat there motionlessly, watching Dong Xue and Xia Yu busy themselves.
Haifeng gave me a look, then stood up and walked out of the hall to the entrance of the courtyard.
I got up and went to the gate.
Standing under the big tree at the entrance of the courtyard, Haifeng looked at Dong Xue and Xia Yu who were shuttling back and forth in the courtyard. What should and shouldn't come had come. All of your women are here. "
I smiled bitterly.
"I didn't expect Dong Xue to come today. I can't help but admire her courage! " Haifeng said.
"I didn't expect it either!" "No," I said.
"Are you proud that so many women have come for you?" Haifeng said.
I smiled bitterly again. "Can you not make fun of me?" Do you think I'm happy now? " "No," I said.
Haifeng sighed, and then looked up at the sky. "Cloud didn't say hello to me before coming to your house for the new year. Of course, maybe it's because I've been busy in Canada all this time with Hai Zhu and didn't get in touch with her. "
"Cloud didn't greet you, there is a reason behind all this. Her hometown, Blizzard, is unable to go back. New Year in Hsinghai is not a big deal for me, I just came together with Qiu Tong! " "No," I said.
"Yes." Just now, Yun Yun secretly explained it to me, but I did not blame her! " Haifeng said.
"By the way, what happened in Canada? "How is it going?" I looked at Haifeng.
Haifeng said: "It can be said that the future is bright, but also not blind optimism. On the whole, everything was going well. During this trip to Canada, Piggy helped a lot, and she arranged the meals and lodging. Then I brought Hai Zhu to the obstetrics and gynecology expert, who carefully examined Hai Zhu's body. Combined with the results of a long distance consultation, she gave some treatment and prescribed some of the latest medicines that weren't available in the country. From what she said, it seems that as long as we follow her treatment plan, there shouldn't be a big problem. "2
Hearing Haifeng's words, my heart felt a little at ease.
At that moment, Hai Zhu walked over.
Seeing Hai Zhu coming over, Haifeng turned around and walked into the yard.
Hai Zhu and I stood in the yard doorway.
Hai Zhu looked at me gloomily.
I smiled at Hai Zhu. "What?" Are you unhappy? "
Hai Zhu forced a smile. "No!"
I said, "No need to hide it, I can see that you're unhappy! I know you have a lot of questions, a lot of worries. "You even have some guesses."
Hai Zhu gazed into the distance and said in a low voice, "So what? With my current situation, what qualifications do I have to go and ask about some matters?" In the end, I still have to get a clear understanding of the relationship between you and me, as well as of my position. In the end, I do not have the qualifications to interfere in some matters. "
I said, "Who said you don't have the right? Of course you have the right to know about my matters and my affairs!"
Hai Zhu looked at me and then fell silent.
At this moment, I felt very conflicted. Dong Xue's words, as well as what Hai Zhu saw in Qiu Tong's room, had undoubtedly aroused an unexplainable knot in Hai Zhu's heart. All of these things made it easy for her to have some thoughts.
But how can I explain this to Hai Zhu and tell her the truth? If I told her that Qiu Tong and Xiao Xue came here for the New Year to avoid the underworld, Hai Zhu would definitely be even more upset about my participation in the underworld.
Also, about Qiu Tong's pregnancy, can you tell her that the child is mine? Obviously, no, this was too terrifying! No matter what, he couldn't let anyone know. Knowing the consequences would be too terrifying!
However, if I don't tell the truth, it means that I'm going to lie to Hai Zhu. However, lying and deceit would make my heart carry a heavy burden.
Then, what should he do? If you tell Hai Zhu the truth, she will continue to be conflicted, and even suspect more, which obviously complicates things even more.
I was conflicted.
Just then, my mother saw Hai Zhu and I standing outside and walked over.
"Hai Zhu, it's been so long since I've seen you. I missed you so much." Mother smiled and said to Hai Zhu, "Today's occasion is quite coincidental, just now at the table auntie had some things to say to you. Since she came, then she will be her guest. I can't be negligent, no matter what, Dong Xue and you are friends. No matter what, Dong Xue was the same as Ke.
As elders, it's not good to talk about matters between you youngsters. However, in front of Dong Xue, I don't want to say too much to you, and I don't want to provoke that child.
"Auntie, I understand." Hai Zhu said.
Mom continued, "Now that I'm in front of you two, Auntie has some things to say. You two have known each other for a long time, Haifeng and Ke are still good friends, like real brothers. You and Ke both know each other well, so auntie and uncle always think about it when they have nothing to do at home. When you go home, you can talk to your parents and see if you can get engaged this year. "
