"Second cousin, I want to eat the fish in front of you." Chen Xuan'er reluctantly put on a smile and pointed her coquettish gun at Bai Erzhuang.
This second cousin is the last person to refuse anyone.
He is a scholar and has a thin skin. If he had known how to refuse, he would not have fallen into the trap of the idiot second cousin.
"Cousin, can't you reach it?" Bai Erzhuang said with a surprised look on his face, "If you can't reach it, stand up. Our family doesn't have many rules when it comes to eating. Saburo and his children have to stand up and pick up food if they can't reach it."
Looking at the serious second brother, Xiao Fuyuan lowered his head into the bowl and snickered.
Chen Xuan'er: "..."
Why is this completely different from the script she thought about? When she was a child, she wanted something from her second cousin, and her second cousin gave it to her with just a look. How come the current second cousin is worse than her eldest cousin, but the eldest cousin still knows how to give her a piece of meat.
"Second cousin..." Chen Xuan'er's eyes were red.
When she was a child, her second cousin would panic when she cried.
"What's wrong with my cousin? Are you crying because the fish is not put in front of you? No, no! You see, my sister loves to eat hibiscus cake. There is not one on the table today, and she doesn't even cry." Bai Erzhuang began. Speak the truth.
Chen Xuan'er choked and held back the tears that were about to flow out.
The second cousin is so heartless.
After all, it was the mouth of a scholar, and he did not use a single curse word to hurt others. What was even more hateful was that he compared her to Xiao Fuyuan.
She was dissatisfied because she was no longer as good as her little cousin.
The two cousins actually have a biological sister, so they don't care about her as a cousin. The past relationship was like feeding the dog.
Chen Xuan'er acted coquettishly for Bai Erzhuang, and Eugene Gui was not happy. A cousin acted coquettishly at the dinner table and ordered her cousin around, no matter how ambiguous she thought.
Xie Chuntao could bear it, but she couldn't.
"Xuan'er is quite a picky eater. Don't you like the big-elbow braised goose in front of you? If you don't, let's change it." Eugene Gui was about to exchange the two plates of vegetables in front of him.
"Ahem." Aunt Chen felt unhappy when she saw her daughter being ignored by her two cousins. She coughed to cover it up and explained, "This child is so spoiled by me that she loves to eat chicken wings and fish maw."
As he spoke, he stretched out his chopsticks to take the whole fish maw from Bai Erzhuang and put it into Chen Xuan'er's bowl.
"It's not okay for aunt to do this. My sister also likes to eat fish maw, and she hasn't eaten a bite yet." Yu Jingui said casually. She couldn't remember exactly what Xiao Fu Yuan liked to eat, but she just pressed Chen Xuan'er's belly with Xiao Fu Yuan. Just arrogant.
Xiao Fuyuan: "..."
Chen Xuan'er's eyes were red and she looked timidly at the white board.
Her uncle used to love her the most. He would always pick fruits for her when working in the mountains, and would lie on the ground and ride on her as a horse. He was kinder to her than her own father.
Chen Xuan'er's behavior made Bai Banban feel uncomfortable. For such an older girl, she was very picky about what she ate and didn't know who to ask for. There were even elders sitting at the table.
There was such a big piece of fish maw, but he didn't even give any of it to his daughter.
His daughter was wronged at the dinner table today.
The white board of the doting girl maniac started to think about it.
His face turned cold unconsciously.
"Auntie, don't be angry if I speak frankly. It doesn't matter that Xuan'er is so picky when she eats at a relative's house. Will she be like this when she goes to her husband's house in the future?" Eugene Gui said loudly.
"Jin Gui's words are a bit blunt, but the truth is this. A girl can be pampered at home no matter what. You see, Xiao Yuanbao is pampered by so many people at home. When she goes outside, everyone praises her for being polite. ." Grandma Du saw Chen Xuan'er's behavior in her eyes. Old Mrs. Bai was embarrassed to say it because of her relatives, but as a grandmother, she could say it.
"My Xuan'er doesn't usually visit other people's houses like this. This is not because she has been here for two years since she was a child, and she considers this place her home, so she indulges a little more at the dinner table." Aunt Chen forced a smile.
Her daughter was criticized in public for being uneducated. Aunt Chen's face burned and she felt very uncomfortable.
As expected, Grandma Du is partial, and she is a Miss Zhen family. She treats her sister better than herself, and even her sister's children are more respectable than her own children.
The same goes for my sister. She used to say that she treated her daughter as her own daughter, but it was all lies.
Even though he knew that his two sons were running against Chen Xuan'er, he refused to say a word.
And my brother-in-law has also changed.
Originally, Mrs. Zhen didn't approve of the marriage between Chen Xuan'er and Bai Panmei, so she planned to go down the same path as Bai Pan. After all, Bai Pan thought very highly of Chen Xuan'er in the past.
Looking at my brother-in-law's appearance now, it's hard to tell.
Isn't it just that Bai Panmei won the first prize as a scholar? Whether she can win the examination is another question, so she started to tremble. If it were like before, how could it be her daughter's turn to marry the Bai family.
Grandma Du and the Bai family ignored Aunt Chen's psychological drama and continued to eat and talk, and the topic turned to Luo Shi's son Du Nian.
"...Nian'er is not good at studying, but he is honest and willing to work. I wonder if he has little future in farming at home, so I plan to send him to the county to be an apprentice." Grandma Du said.
Luo Shi nodded aside. She didn't expect her son to be as successful as Bai Sanzhuang when he was an apprentice and earn such a big business. She only wanted to open a shop by herself in the future and she would be happy.
"What do my parents-in-law want Nian'er to learn?" Old Mrs. Bai asked.
"Blacksmith's shop, herbal medicine shop, rice and grain shop...it doesn't matter which one, being able to earn a living is better than anything else," said Grandma Du.
Bai Banban listened on the side and suddenly interjected: "Mom, brothers and sisters, you are too outsiders. It is better to come to our own shop to be an apprentice for others. Sanzhuang's shop has opened in Huaicheng, and now it is short of two clerks. Let him Follow along and practice.”
Following Bai Sanzhuang, that would be perfect.
Grandma Du and Luo Shi knew that relatives were sometimes most taboo in doing business, so they were embarrassed to ask Du Nian to work with Bai Sanzhuang as a clerk.
"Nian'er is not as clever as the three strong men. I don't know if I can do it." Luo Shi was very happy in his heart, but said modestly.
"Nian'er is down-to-earth and steady. Doing business requires such a temperament. His aunt, don't refuse for Nian'er." Old Mrs. Bai said.
"San Zhuang's store in Huaicheng is in need of a reliable person now. Mai Miao is pregnant and he is busy running around. Brother and sister, you should ask Nian'er to help my San Zhuang. As a mother, don't you feel sorry for your son?" Are you willing to let me go?" Madam Zhen joked.
Luo Shi was very grateful to Zhen. This was because her sister-in-law was afraid that she would be embarrassed, so she deliberately asked Nian'er to help Sanzhuang.
"In this case, let's let Nian'er go to Sanzhuang to practice." Grandma Du nodded and accepted the Bai family's kindness, and then said to Mrs. Bai, "But let's talk about it first. Is there anything Nian'er can't do well?" In this place, Sanzhuang treats Nian'er as he does to other waiters, and when he comes to the shop, he is just a waiter, not his cousin."
"This is natural, I will also tell Nian'er." Luo Shi said quickly.
Aunt Chen started a new round of eating in her heart. Life at her sister's family was getting better, so she began to attract the Du family, but she was merciless to her serious sister.
