Indissoluble bond

Lu Liang didn't say a word, just watched with cold eyes. He didn't respond to their words, and the scene began to cool down again.

He called slowly: "Second Uncle, Third Uncle, Fourth Uncle, Younger Uncle, Aunt."

He didn't call anyone else.

Like his uncle's wife and sister-in-law's husband, although he knew each other, he didn't call anyone.There are still a few juniors in the private room, some of them are recognized according to their childhood memories, and some of them are unknown.

Besides my own relatives, there was an outsider, a middle-aged woman whom I had never seen before.She frowned slightly, her brows were full of melancholy, and only when Lu Liang swept past did she show a gentle smile.

Sure enough, it's not as simple as a gathering of relatives.

The middle-aged man standing in front of Lu Liang had a hint of anger on his face, but then forcibly suppressed it, still putting on a smiling face.

"Xiao Liang, we haven't seen each other for so long, isn't it because we are about to be forgotten? Look, some people don't recognize you, right?" In a word, blame this on Lu Liang's fault.

But everyone knew that it wasn't that Lu Liang didn't see them, but that they didn't want to see Lu Liang at all.

Lu Liang didn't refute, but just looked at him indifferently: "Second Uncle, it's been a long time since I saw you, and a lot has changed."

Look at that rosy, slightly chubby face and slightly protruding beer belly, which is quite different from the lean man ten years ago.However, his temperament has not changed much, and he still likes to greet people with a smile.It's just that he hid his calculations under his smile in the past, but now he's floating those calculations on the surface.

He was not difficult to deal with, but the one who caught Lu Liang's heart the most was the taciturn Fifth Uncle.

Fifth Uncle Lu Heyan, as the youngest son of the Lu family, has always been loved by his parents, but his personality is not the type of person who can be glib and coax people to like him.

He is capable, knows how to be flexible, and can restrain all emotions, making it difficult for people to understand his thoughts.

Lu Liang paid the most attention.

What Lu Liang said made Lu Heyu's expression stiff, and he really didn't want to talk to Lu Liang.Years of pampered life has worn away his smoothness a lot, and he can't allow others to violate his dignity.

His face straightened: "Xiao Liang is blaming Second Uncle?"

Lu Liang said calmly: "Don't dare."

This is unbearable!The anger in Lu Heyu's heart was already full, and he walked away with a smile, leaving Lu Liang where he was.

When other people saw this, they didn't step forward to make fun of themselves. For a while, no one paid any attention to Lu Liang.

A boy who had been sitting with his back to Lu Liang snorted coldly from the beginning: "Some people are just annoying."

He didn't point out anyone in particular, but everyone agreed that he was Lu Liang by default, and they deeply agreed.

Lu Liang didn't react at all when he heard it, he didn't even look over his eyes, he walked to the side, found an empty seat and sat down.

There are two long tables in the room, and there is a distance between each position. What's more, someone dragged the chair away from the place in order to talk, so that there was no one beside him at the position he was sitting on.

Very clean.

Others acted as if they hadn't seen him.The third uncle of the Lu family, Lu Heping, cleared his throat: "Cough...well, everyone is here, right?"

The strange middle-aged woman said softly: "Lingling hasn't arrived yet, I'm really sorry."

Lu Heping was taken aback, and looked around in the box, but he didn't see the person he wanted to see, he waved his hand to the lady: "What did Madam Yu say, it's all right, that girl might be someone on the way What's the delay."

Lu Liang's black eyes suddenly turned cold.

Madam Yu said apologetically again: "Sorry, this way, let's order first, and she will be there soon."

Lu Heping and his brothers looked at each other, and Lu Heyu said, "That's okay, let's order first."

After all, clap your hands: "Waiter, order."

As soon as the words were finished, a waiter presented several scrolls of bamboo slips.There is a roll in front of several adults.Lu Heyu spread out the bamboo slips and said with a smile to the others: "Everyone have a look, and I will show it to the juniors later. Order whatever you like. I'll treat you today. You're welcome."

Everyone in the room smiled and did not answer.

That being said, it was just a polite remark, how could it be really casual.

Several adults each ordered a dish, then gave the menu to their juniors, and quietly hinted not to order too much.

Lu Liang seemed to be forgotten by everyone again, the menu did not reach him.

Those boys and girls followed their parents' wishes and didn't order too much.

But soon, a different figure appeared in it.I just heard the man wave his hand proudly: "Serve all the dishes on the menu."

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Lu Liang heard that it was the boy who had satirized him before.He looked over and saw a profile face.With thick eyebrows and big eyes, the hair on his forehead was dyed white, the center of his brows was raised, and his angular lips were tightly pursed, giving people an unruly feeling.

He thought about it for a long time, and only felt that his facial features were somewhat similar to those of his second uncle. He should be his second uncle's youngest son, his cousin, Lu Heng, who was two years younger than him.

He has a perverse temper since he was a child, irritable and irritable.

Xu Shi noticed his gaze, and Lu Heng turned his head to look over, with an interesting smile on his face.

He kicked the stool of the person next to him and ordered: "Give this to him."

He closed the bamboo slips in his hand and pointed at Lu Liang.

He is somewhat similar to Zhou Jiang, but Zhou Jiang looks rebellious, but in fact he just has a strong self-esteem, while he has a bad temper and likes to tease people the most, forcing others to cry and beg for mercy.

The people next to Lu Heng also knew him very well, he was a rascal, so he followed his instructions and gave the bamboo slips to Lu Liang.

Lu Liang smiled back at Lu Heng, which in Lu Heng's view was provocation.

He opened his eyes and stared at Lu Liang firmly, not letting go of his every move.

Seeing that Lu Liang looked at it slowly for a long time without any movement, he sneered disdainfully.

At this moment, Lu Liang spoke: "Luohanzhai, Fallen Leaf Pipa Shrimp, Dried Ruyi Fragrance, Steamed Tofu with Double Peppers, Phoenix Tour on the Phoenix Terrace, Poetry Ginkgo, Cool Breeze, Lotus Flowers in the Pond, Swallow Grass Like Bisi, Flying in the Momo Water Field White Dew, Yinyin Xiamu Zhuan Oriole, Snow Mountain Flying Fox, Peerless Twins, Lotus Crisp, Almond Tofu, Osmanthus Cake, Sweet Taro Seedlings..."

He non-stop reported the names of most of the dishes on the bamboo slips, some were meat and vegetables, some were expensive and some were cheap.But as long as you listen to it, you will know that it is not cheap, who makes it available in large quantities!

Everyone was dumbfounded, you are really welcome!

Lu Heyu resisted not interrupting, although he really wanted to interrupt, although he didn't care about the money, but it was a matter of face.

Lu Liang obviously didn't give him face by doing this.

He listened with a stiff smile, and by the way, he gave his youngest son a look. Lu Heng gave him a nonchalant look, which made his face turn black.

He twitched the corner of his mouth, and said to Lu Liang: "Look at you, you don't know if you can eat so much after ordering so much, it's not good to waste it."

Lu Liang handed the menu back to the waiter: "It's okay, I can take it if I can't finish it."

Lu Heyu felt his teeth itch: "Since Xiaoliang said so, then let's do it like this, and forget what Henger said."

Lu Liang smiled gracefully.

Lu Heng was resentful, slapped the table and shouted: "Old man! I am your son!"

Lu Heyu suddenly had a headache: "Yes, yes, all of them, all of them, okay?"

Only then was Lu Heng satisfied.

After listening, the waiter put away the menus one by one and stepped back.Walk to a counter behind the door, put the menu away, write the name of the dish you ordered on the order paper, then open a cabinet door on the wall, put the paper in, and press the button on the cabinet door button.

The prompt sound after the button is pressed is like a breeze blowing through a wind chime, which is fresh and pleasant, and will not arouse disgust from others.

A layer of iron door in the cabinet door was slowly closed, and there was a low whistling sound of the machine running.

It turned out that there was a small elevator in the room.

"Xiao Liang, how have you been all these years?" Lu Heyu asked after making mental preparations.

Lu Liang asked back: "What is good and what is bad?"

Lu Heyu shook his head and sighed: "Oh, Xiaoliang, you have suffered. It seems that the family didn't teach you well." That's why they don't understand the dignity and contradict the elders.

Lu Liang heard what he meant, and immediately withdrew his faint smile.

"Second Uncle, the elders still need to lead by example..." He said meaningfully.

Lu Heyu gritted his teeth. Didn't he mean that he can speak as he speaks.

The fourth uncle Lu Hexing, who has not said a word until now, seemed not to understand Lu Liang's subtext, and responded: "Xiao Liang, you are right, you are sensible."

Lu Heyu choked, feeling that he was hurt internally again.

Is this my brother?

Lu Liang nodded to Lu Hexing: "Thank you for your compliment, Uncle Fourth. Although I haven't seen him for a long time, I feel kind when I see Uncle Fourth."

Lu Hexing's eyes lit up: "Xiao Liang can really talk."

Lu Liang smiled.

He could tell that although this fourth uncle was not pure and kind, he was honest and honest, and he treated his relatives equally and kindly.It is estimated that because of this, he has been deceived by his brothers all these years.

Otherwise, based on how his parents took care of Lu Hexing, he wouldn't have never visited him once.

He can be regarded as an outlier in the Lu family, maybe it is a breakthrough point.

usable!

In an instant, Lu Liang figured out the joint.

He was about to say a few more words to his fourth uncle when he heard his fifth uncle Lu Heyan say calmly: "Okay, it's pointless to show off your tongue."

His tone was cold, with some majesty of his own.

Lu Liang swallowed back the words on his lips.The little advantage he had gained with great difficulty was immediately beaten back to its original shape, and the matter was characterized in one sentence, which became his competitive performance.

It seems that fifth uncle is on the side of second uncle, third uncle and aunt.

He didn't know if Fifth Uncle could see his intention to win over Fourth Uncle, because the timing of his opening was too coincidental, and the expression on his face was too little.

He has no way of getting useful information.

Aunts Lu and Fang were chatting with Mrs. Yu, as if they didn't notice the smokeless war that was spreading here.

But Lu Liang knew that she had been paying attention to the movement here, as she could tell from the way she glanced at them from time to time.

The verbal war stopped temporarily, and no one mentioned what happened just now.

At this time, the bamboo tube outside the door was knocked, which attracted everyone's attention.

The door was opened by a waiter, and a waiter led a person in.After the waiter exited the box, everyone saw the face of the visitor.

is a girl.

Lu Liang's eyes narrowed.

Still an acquaintance.

Just as he was silent for a moment, Mrs. Yu, Lu Hefang, and the second, third, and fourth uncles all stepped forward to greet him.

Only Uncle Wu sat on the seat as motionless as a mountain.

Compared with when he was greeted by only his second uncle, there was a big gap.

Lu Heng seemed to think of something, and turned his head to look over.When he saw someone coming, he couldn't wait to leave his seat.

"Sister Linger."

That joyful tone was not thorny, and it was not like him at all.

"Han Ling, you've come, everyone can't wait for you." It was still Lu Heyu who spoke first.

Then Madam Yu: "Lingling, why are you so late today?"

Liu Hanling looked at Madam Yu and said, "Mom, is this...?"

Madam Yu didn't explain much, and reprimanded: "Lingling, why are you so rude? Why don't you call me?"

Liu Hanling pursed her lips and frowned slightly: "Second Uncle Lu, Third Uncle Lu, Fourth Uncle Lu, Aunt Lu, and Xiao Heng, hello."

Everyone who was called was smiling, and there was no surprise.Lu Heng grinned, smiled and took her hand.

After calling someone, she asked again without giving up: "Mom, didn't you say that your own people came out for dinner?"

Madam Yu forced a smile: "These are all my own people."

Liu Hanling stared at her mother and did not speak for a long time.

Here we go again, here we go again.

Since her father passed away three years ago and her family was in decline, she often asked her to have dinner with people she didn't know very well under various names.This time is not bad, they are all partners and elders who have known each other since childhood.A few times I didn't know each other, and the behavior of those people was disgusting.

Going back to her hometown in Ning City this winter vacation, she thought she would settle down, but she didn't expect such a thing to happen.

Even if she knew that she was just like this because her father was gone, she was flustered and lost her mind, she couldn't bear it.

She palely smiled at the few people in front of her, and walked in.

When passing Madam Yu, she whispered, "This is the last time."

Madam Yu was worried that she would run away halfway, when she heard this disguised guarantee, she nodded quickly: "No problem, it's the last time."

Liu Hanling adjusted his mood, tilted his head and asked Lu Heng with a smile: "Didn't your Lu family stay in Fengshi and never return to Ningshi? Why did you come back this time?"

When asked about this, Lu Heng raised his eyebrows, the unruliness between the brows was very conspicuous.

He looked at Lu Liang with a smile, and pointed with his hand: "Well, it's because of him."

Liu Hanling took advantage of the situation to look over, and when he saw Lu Liang, he paused, turned around and walked over there.

"Hi, I'm Liu Hanling." Liu Hanling stood on the opposite side of him, stretched out her hand and smiled.

As if the two met for the first time.

Lu Liang didn't expose her, and shook her back with a smile: "Hi, I'm Lu Liang."

Liu Hanling nodded, reserved and didn't say much, just said hello and walked away.

The elders of the Lu family and Mrs. Yu all saw this scene.

Lu Heyu smiled and said, "It seems that we get along well."

Madam Yu followed closely and said, "That's right, Lingling of our family generally doesn't have a good face towards boys, only the young masters of your Lu family are better. Now it seems that she doesn't reject Lu Liang, she obviously likes it."

Lu Heping clapped his hands and smiled: "Good! Good! Good!"

Lu Hefang smiled and said: "Look at what I said, let them meet first, and if they are satisfied, they can look around first."

Lu Hexing's thoughts were different from theirs: "Isn't that good? What if they have someone they like?"

Lu Heyu glared at him: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

"No, no, I guarantee that Lingling in my family absolutely has no one she likes." Madam Yu promised.

"Hey, it's the fourth child who can't speak, don't listen to him."

Madam Yu braced herself and gave a stiff laugh: "Mmm, ha ha."

They did not deliberately lower their voices when discussing, and everyone in the room heard it.Liu Hanling paused, then pretended not to hear, and naturally sat down on the empty seat.

Lu Liang's eyes were half closed, and his pupils were covered by thick black eyelashes, casting a shadow.Put your hands crossed in front of your abdomen, with a peaceful demeanor.

He listened to their words in silence, as if he had fallen asleep sitting up.

The parties didn't respond much, but Lu Heng was the one who reacted the most.

He suddenly stood up from his seat, and the chair was pushed back, making a harsh and prolonged 'squeak--' sound.

He grabbed Liu Hanling's wrist and looked at Lu Heyu in astonishment: "Dad! What are you talking about?"

Before Lu Heyu could answer, Lu Heng kicked away the chair behind him and dragged Liu Hanling out in big strides.With a fierce expression, no one dared to step forward to stop him.

Liu Hanling was pulled by him, staggering: "Xiao Heng, what are you doing!"

"Let's go, get out of here."
