Chapter 216 'Being' the Cannon Fodder for the Hostess' Destiny (29)

Zeng Xingxiu directly embraced the person beside him with his long arms, took the little girl in his arms and walked towards the main table, then lightly pressed the little girl's shoulder and pushed her to the left side of old man Shi. Sit down.

Zeng Xingxiu's extremely natural movements surprised the guests in the garden and couldn't help but bow their heads and whisper to each other under the gaze of the line of heavily armed soldiers.

"Old Zhao, didn't Mr. Shi say that the Marshal and Miss Shi's family are engaged? What's going on now!"

"Heh~ What else can it be? Some people are overwhelmed!"

"Mrs. Qi! Why can't I understand now? Didn't Mr. Shi just say that?"

"Just listen to the old man's words, don't you really know what kind of virtue the Shi family has?"

"Master Qing, this old man Shi is getting thicker and thicker now!?"

"Heh~ But the eyesight is still as bad as ever."

"Yes! 40 years ago, Mr. Shi treated Mr. Shi Er like that. As a result, Mr. Shi Er, the most outstanding of the three generations of the Shi family, directly separated from the Shi family, and started a new stove. Stabilizing the Shi family at one end, this is not a long memory!"

"I have a long memory, isn't this when the Marshal lived in Shi's house, the old man showed a bit of hypocrisy!"

"Heh~, I don't care about any occasion, as long as the commander-in-chief disobeys the old man's wishes, the Shi family will say things like 'If it weren't for us, you would have starved to death and been beaten to death by your parents...', two times at a time. It’s fine once, if you keep whispering this in people’s ears every day, if you don’t punish him, who will you punish?”

"Hehe! What Brother Zou said is true."

···
Out of the corner of Mr. Shi's eyes, he saw the girl who was brought in by Zeng Xingxiu sitting beside him with a very calm look. The "friendly and smiling face" model in the past two decades is quite a tendency to be broken.

Zeng Xingxiu just stood aside and looked at old man Shi quietly, without saying a word, his breath became more and more stagnant.

After a while, the noise stopped abruptly when it became louder and louder, and the whole back garden was so quiet that one could hear a needle drop.

"Master Shi, please make room for our commander in chief." Adjutant Shen stood up and said with a light smile.

"What are you talking about! What is Zeng Xingxiu..." Shi Qingyuan was glared at by old man Shi, and recalled that the old man gave him advice this morning, suppressed the anger in his heart, and lowered his voice and said: "At the elder's birthday banquet , a junior who once practiced cultivation, there is no reason to let an elder who has passed his life give way."

"Indeed, as a junior, it is true that an elder who has passed his life should not give way, but, as the saying goes, public is public, and private is private.

When the Shi family sent the invitation back then, it wasn't the Marshal's Mansion, but the Military Headquarters Building, and the Marshal also received the post at the Military Headquarters Building during working hours. Logically speaking, today's trip is an official business. The commander-in-chief attended the birthday banquet of the old man of the Shi family to comfort and appease the famous family in Haicheng, so he should sit in the main seat.

I'm curious, the Shi family knew that the commander in chief was attending the birthday banquet as a commander in the military department, but he still insisted on taking the seat. Could it be that he has some intention of "going to a higher place"?

Cough, just kidding, Mr. Shi has always said that he loves our handsome man the most, so surely our handsome man will not be used as a talking point by the outside world because of such a small matter in the seat, right? "

"You're talking nonsense..."

"Qingyuan." According to Adjutant Shen's words, Old Master Shi's face was dark, cold, and uneasy for a while, and finally he stood up with full embarrassment and faint worry in his eyes, looking at his precious grandson as if he wanted to help him. Unyielding, his heart was suspended all of a sudden, and he immediately stopped Shi Qingyuan from saying what he was about to say.

Maybe Shi Qingyuan didn't know, how could old master Shi not know, since they came back from the Marshal's Mansion last time, Zeng Xingxiu had never been to Shi's Mansion.

No, it should be said that Zeng Xingxiu has changed since four years ago.

Old Master Shi knew in his heart that Zeng Xingxiu had been watched and raised by him since he was a child. Although he didn't know what went wrong, he was sure that the current Zeng Xingxiu was no longer the one they had bothered to treat filial piety and repay. Zeng Xingxiu was in the Shi family.

Moreover, this is not what he is most worried about...

Mr. Shi sat on the right side of the main seat, waved his hand with a look of indifference and said, "The birthday banquet is a simple matter of having a meal with relatives and friends, old man, how can I use my personal affairs to disturb the practice?" I'm afraid that the boy who sent the invitations went to a different place and felt that the military building was closer to his place than the Marshal's Mansion, so he was lazy. If the old man knew that the invitation was sent to the military building , must have vacated the main seat early, so don't make it difficult for Xingxiu."

Compared with Mr. Shi's selfless devotion to the younger generation wholeheartedly, Zeng Xingxiu didn't say anything, just sat on the chair, and said coldly, "Let's open the table!"

Old Master Shi's face, which had just calmed down with great difficulty, turned dark again. Before he could think of something to say to relieve the embarrassment in front of him, he saw a row of little girls in plain pink cheongsams holding a big tray and starting to serve it. dish.

The air froze instantly.

The guests present did not dare to speak, and all of them winked. What was rare was that they could roughly understand each other's meaning, and there were more winks than gestures.

Zeng Xingxiu didn't care, and directly used the serving chopsticks to pick up a steamed scallop with garlic vermicelli for the little girl beside her, watching the cuteness of the little girl squinting her eyes and sipping the things on the plate in front of her at a very fast speed. appearance, and consciously continued the great cause of feeding tonight.

'Well, the sweet and sour pork ribs smell good. This little girl likes meat the most, so she should like it. While thinking, Zeng Xingxiu put three pieces of ribs into the plate in front of Ju Yan.

'This fish is also well cooked, delicious and smooth, and the most rare thing is that it is not fishy at all. After the tasting was confirmed, Zeng Xingxiu directly picked up all the tender meat from the belly of the fish and put it on Ju Yan's plate.

'Well, this drunk crab looks good too. Zeng Xingxiu gracefully picked up the eight pieces of crab again, and instead of putting the removed crab meat into his mouth, he put it into the small bowl at hand.

Zeng Xingxiu's movements were very fast, and he took out a small bowl in a short while.

"Crab cold, I can only eat this small bowl today."

"...I know~"

···
Seeing the feeding and being fed by the two tacitly, the guests present gave each other a few winks, and everything was kept silent.

And old man Shi was restless to the extreme, as if there were thorns growing on the chair under him, he felt that everyone present was watching his jokes and laughing at him.

"Doctor Liu is back!"
