The smile on Xu Yuchu's face froze for a moment.
This is Major Shen?
The man in front of her is totally different from her imagination.
His height is much shorter than that of Xiao Fu and Xiao Chen. When he hugs Xiao Fu, almost his whole face is buried in Xiao Fu's chest. His arms are thick and short, so he can only reach Xiao Fu's elbow when he raises his hand. His fat and thick palms are open, and he pats and pats on Xiao Fu's little arm, which makes Xiao Fu laugh from his chest.
When they separated, Xu Yuchu looked at his face again. He had short and thick eyebrows, but his eyes and nose were very big. Together with the mouth under his nose, which seemed to be grinning happily and showing his teeth that were not too white, he took up his small face. The hair is a little soft. It collapses on the top of the head with a slight wrinkle. The color of the hair is very black, and there is no silver at the temples. The white skin in the thick and short neck is carrying a piece of pink. You can imagine that the chest under the shirt is also red.
With half true and half false breath, senior colonel Shen and his father Xiao said, "brother Xiao, your waist is so straight that you can't consider my third class disabled height. Bend your noble waist?"
"Ha," Xiao Fu's palm fell on Shen's back, which was not wide but much thicker. "You are more and more glib."
After being slightly surprised by the appearance, Xu Yuchu heard such a funny remark. The smile on his face was about to hang up, so he had to close the curvature of his lips and move his eyes to the person behind Shen.
A beautiful middle-aged woman was holding hands with Xiao's mother eagerly. A woman's long hair is nearly red wine color, tied into a beautiful braid, hanging in front of her chest. Under a silver gray cashmere coat is a light gold dress, with a slim waist. Her long legs are covered with a pair of boots. There are two round pearls on them, and a pearl necklace is also hung under her neck. Each pearl is round, with excellent color, which is by no means ordinary. Compared with Shen, who is just wearing a black striped casual suit, it looks gorgeous.
Xu Yuchu noticed that Mrs. Shen's voice was not loud when she spoke, and her face was full of enthusiasm. However, the lines at the corners of her eyes and lips were slightly stiff, and her smile, which should have been more colorful, seemed unnatural.
As if noticing her sight, Mrs. Shen's beautiful eyes also cast a look at her. Xu Yu couldn't see the meaning of the look in her eyes at the first day of junior high school, so he nodded to her eyes, and then turned his eyes to the two people who walked in later.
Walking ahead is a young man. His height was higher than Xiao Chen's, and he was not as strong as Xiao Chen's. His slightly long forehead blocked his eyes. He moved his forehead back impatiently with one hand and put his pocket in the other. He frowned and rubbed a little soil on the footcloth in the front hall. Although he was blocked by Mrs. Shen in front of him, he rubbed freely, but he didn't know that his action had been clearly seen by Xiao Chen and his wife.
Although it's obvious that Xu Yuchu has a good face after a glance, he is not happy with this person and turns to the woman who finally walks in.
The other side also looked up at her without expression.
It's Mei Xinrui?
Xu Yuchu was stunned and turned to see Xiao Chen's face. They exchanged their eyes quietly, and followed Xiao's father and mother to welcome them into the living room.
Everyone is seated.
Despite some doubts, Xu Yuchu fell behind and sat down beside Xiao Chen. Housekeeper Qin and his servants served all kinds of tea, obviously knowing the preferences of the guests. Steward Qin poured a cup of black tea in his own hands. First he brought it to Mrs. Shen, then he took another cup and sent it to senior colonel Shen.
"Thank you." Shen took the tea and sipped it. He seemed to have tasted it and squinted with satisfaction, but he put the cup down. Xiao's father looked in his eyes, raised his cup and took a sip. He rushed to Xu Yuchu from the side of the cup and blinked. Xu Yuchu knowingly lowered his head and covered his eyes.
Xiao's mother finally finished talking about the new jewelry exhibition with Mrs. Shen. She took a sip of red date tea from the servant and moistened her voice. It seemed that she noticed Mei Xinrui, who had been sitting beside Mr. Shen for a long time. She opened her eyes slightly and nodded at her as a greeting.
"How is your grandfather recently?"
"Not bad. Thank you for your concern." Mei Xinrui taps her fingers on the teacup twice, as if to relieve her tension, but her smile is always maintained. Compared with Mrs. Shen's, Mei Xinrui is gentle and charming. It's a pity that her gesture seems to be unpopular in front of the two women with fierce eyes. With a forced smile, Xiao's mother turns her eyes away, while Mrs. Shen turns a deaf ear, as if completely ignoring her existence.
When Xu Yuchu saw it, he could not help but feel a sense of compassion. Mei's family is not a small family. Old general Mei is still alive. In Xu Yuchu's impression, Mei Xinrui is an outstanding and modest lady from a big family in the eyes of the public. Being treated in this way may be that heixinlian's nature is not well hidden, or that in front of the old fox, her number of passages is too low, which means that stealing chicken can't eat rice.
But obviously, the Shen family, who was sitting next to her, didn't think so. As soon as he sat down, the young man took out his mobile phone and kept playing. Obviously, he had expected this to happen. As soon as the atmosphere cooled down, he stretched out a hand to hold Mei Xinrui's hand firmly. The silent maintenance made Mrs. Shen black faced.Xiao Guojian was a little bit surprised, while Shen was still smiling, but there was a sharp look on his face. Seeing that the atmosphere became more and more stiff, Xiao Chen stood up, took Xu Yuchu's hand, and said in a low voice, "Uncle Shen, Miss Qiu, why don't you take a seat? We've prepared a lot of dishes tonight, which you two like."
It was only then that the look of major Shen relaxed. He buckled the teacup on the table, laughed again, and stood up. His fierce eyes turned to Xiao Chen's face, but Xiao Chen met his eyes. They looked at each other for a long time. Shen sighed inexplicably, grabbed Mrs. Shen's hand and went to the dining room.
Originally, a happy meal was held awkwardly.
Xiao Fu took out the wine bottle and poured it on the goblet in front of Senior Colonel Shen.
Xu Yuchu chews asparagus in his mouth and looks at the cup being filled. He unconsciously winks at Xiao Chen. However, he sees that Xiao Chen also takes the cup and pours the wine slowly. Looking at the posture, he seems to want to put one on the table if he is not drunk.
"Old Shen, come on, old rules."
two people drink water like tap water and pour a glass of Baijiu into their stomach.
After a while, a cup had already been drunk, and Shen's face was flushed. His swollen cheek looked like a peach bag. Xu Yuchu tried to pick up rice in his mouth, but he didn't laugh.
"Xiaorong," Shen Dabiao wiped his mouth and looked at the young man lazily picking dishes opposite Xu Yuchu, "have a drink with your uncle Xiao."
