Zhou Zixuan tugged his arm and reminded softly, "Don't talk nonsense, he has returned to the Shao family now, and that is the prince of the Shao family!"
"Okay." Li Zhiming hurried back to his seat.
But at this moment in the sunshine flower room, Shao Lanlan pushed Shao Kexin displeasedly...
"What's wrong with your brother when he comes back to his own house? Do I have to respect him when he comes back? I don't have any relationship with him. How do you ask me to respect him?"
"But you can't speak ill of him behind his back! Belittle him!" Shao Kexin stared at her angrily.
"Where did I belittle? I just think his character is not very good. At the beginning, he didn't know that he was the prince of the Shao family, so he went to cling to Miss Gu's family. He didn't even think about it. That woman is already thirty years old."
"Shao Lanlan, my brother has a very good character! He is a man who behaves and sits upright!"
"Cut! Shao Kexin, think about it carefully. A poor boy goes after a rich girl because he wants her money? This has character? He is obviously a scheming little boy, okay?"
Snapped!
Shao Kexin raised her hand suddenly, and slapped Shao Lanlan angrily, "Do you dare to say such things in front of grandpa?"
"You?" Shao Lanlan covered her face, widening her black eyes that were smeared like smoke, "Stinky girl, why did you hit me? You are the granddaughter of the Shao family, and so am I! You are still the eldest granddaughter!"
"I'm relying on justice! If you don't understand the specific situation, you just talk nonsense and insult my brother. Are you still our relative?"
"Don't yell in front of me!" Shao Lanlan pushed her hard again, staring at her fiercely, "I'm at home today, if you dare to hit me so arrogantly outside, I will definitely give you three slaps back! "
When the words fell, she waved her hands to leave.
"Shao Lanlan," Shao Kexin rushed over and grabbed her arm, "I hope you treat my brother well and don't talk nonsense. He just came back to this house. Don't let him feel cold."
Shao Lanlan snorted after hearing this, and shook off her hand, "Huh! It's not that I was rude to him, but he looked down on me as soon as he entered the door, with a cold and arrogant look, as if he was raised by some noble family, who wouldn't Knowing that he came out of a poor mountain ditch, why are you so proud?"
Shao Kexin heard her chest rise and fall, "You? Do you still want my brother to bow down to you, nod and bow, and be obedient?"
"Can't you? Can't you? I thought he would definitely bow his head when he got home, timid and afraid of others, but I didn't want him to hold his head high! He didn't grow up in our Shao's family. What's the prestige?
Although your father's blood is flowing on his body, he is already covered with a layer of earthy and sour smell. What's even more ridiculous is that he found a big woman at a young age, and she was a rich girl. Didn't he want to eat Soft rice? "
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a sudden gust of cool wind behind her, and then a "golden cudgel" hit her shoulder violently, "Shao Lanlan! Can you scold my brother again?"
It turned out that it was Shao Jun who flew over. He stood behind Shao Lanlan, his little face was flushed red, and through the glass of the glasses, his eyes were about to burst into flames.
"Ah!" Shao Lanlan belatedly touched her shoulder and stomped her feet angrily, "Brat, you are going to die!"
"What are you doing? What are you doing?" Lan Mu ran over.
She suspected that Shao Kexin heard her daughter's words before, so she was pulled out to teach her a lesson, but she didn't want to be like this.
"Auntie, Lan Lan's mouth is too bad, she keeps scolding my brother." Shao Kexin complained sadly.
Mother Lan tugged her daughter's hand in displeasure, "Why are you so disobedient? Where is this place? When? If the old man finds out, you will have to be locked up again!"
Shao Lanlan pursed her lips disapprovingly, and muttered, "I'm not afraid of him. After all, I'm also his eldest granddaughter."
"Is it okay for the eldest granddaughter to have the eldest grandson? Are they of the same status? One is to carry on the family line of the Shao family, and the other is to be married off!" Mother Lan said angrily to her.
"Mom, grandpa, he's ridiculous. This eldest grandson has no feelings for us at all, okay? But the old man still asks us to respect him. Didn't you see that he ignored us?"
Shao Kexin responded immediately: "That's because he just came back today, and we don't know each other well, so he doesn't like to talk."
"Yes, my brother is actually very kind and easy to talk to." Shao Junfei chimed in.
Lan's mother knew that her family's status would always be "second" in the Shao family, so if she competed with Shao Bing's sons and daughters, her daughter would definitely not get any benefit.
Besides, it's her stomach that doesn't live up to expectations, and she even gave birth to two daughters, so she has nothing to say in front of the old father and son.
Even if that Yao Shumin suffers from "sickness" sometimes, the old man still values her.
"Okay, okay, let's all go back to dinner, lest the old man suspect what you are doing, go back." Mother Lan waved them back to the restaurant.
At this time, the men in the restaurant had already drunk three rounds, and did not pay attention to these children. Everyone was talking and laughing, and the atmosphere seemed very harmonious.
It's just that when Zheng Yihua came in, his sharp eyes swept over the three younger siblings.
From Sister Kexin's eyes, he seemed to see something, frowned slightly, then lowered his head calmly, picked up the bowl and started to eat.
"Ye'er, why don't you eat more food?" The old man asked with a smile.
Zheng Yihua smiled lightly, "Grandpa, I like to eat."
"Hahaha... Shao Ye, did you not even have enough food to eat in that poor mountain valley during your childhood vacation?" Li Zhiming asked with a sideways smile, his eyes somewhat tinged with sarcasm.
Zheng Yihua didn't respond in time, when the father suddenly slapped the chopsticks on the table, "Zhiming, watch your words! Say one more word, believe it or not, I will kick you out!"
Li Zhiming's heart trembled, and when he saw his uncle's face turned black, he hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry, I said something wrong."
Qingfeng's face darkened, she glared at her son resentfully, then glanced at Shao Bing angrily, just about to say something for her son, her husband pulled the hem of her clothes, "Eat."
Qingfeng turned her head and suppressed her resentment.
Zheng Yihua raised her head, glanced at her father, and a warm current slipped through her heart.
After that, he put down the bowl, took the napkin handed over by the servant, stood up and smiled...
"Brother Zhiming is right, I grew up in a poor mountain valley, and sometimes I couldn't even eat rice.
Sometimes when I was hungry, I would go up the mountain to pick some wild fruits, and go to the field to dig a potato or sweet potato. Corn on the cob from your neighbor, or accept their bowl of rice cereal...
But I have never felt bitter in this kind of life, because it made me feel the warmth, kindness and strong family affection there. I didn't feel how poor there was or how pitiful my life was.
Do not! I am rich because I have love. My adoptive parents love me very much. They have taught me how to behave, how to be kind, honest, responsible, and have backbone!
There is also a group of very simple, kind, and enthusiastic folks around me. In your mouth, they are mountain people in poor valleys, but in my eyes, they are my most simple relatives!
The place where they live is very beautiful. Although it is not as prosperous as the city, it is pure and fresh, and even the air is sweet, not to mention the rice. "
After finishing the long speech, Zheng Yihuajun's face sank, his gaze swept across Li Zhiming's face indifferently, then he folded the napkin in his hand into a square and placed it gently on the table, moved away from the chair, and smiled at his elder. With a nod——
"I'm full, eat slowly."
He straightened his back and strode away, froze the expressions of everyone present.
