Chapter 830 Family Banquet
The main hall was bustling, and all the aunts and aunts of the Zhao family were present.
I heard that today is the person Zhao Xuemei is talking about to visit, and these aunts and sisters also want to see what kind of young man they are.
Xiao Hongying was still cooking the last dish in the kitchen, while Zhao Dashun invited relatives and friends to sit in the seat.
Looking at the table of red, green and green dishes, Zhao Dashun was finally a little satisfied. At least it seemed to be quite reasonable and did not embarrass him in front of his relatives.
For the first time when encountering such a scene, Li Shaoan was extremely nervous. He was sitting there with chopsticks or holding wine glasses. He was pulled by a group of relatives of the Zhao family to ask about this and that, so embarrassed that he didn't know how to answer.
Among the crowd, a fat middle-aged woman spoke loudly, as if she had a big speaker.
The woman had just swallowed a piece of fat, oily fat meat in her mouth, and suddenly she opened her mouth and smiled at Li Shaoan, and said heartlessly: "Young man, I am Xuemei's third aunt. This girl has grown up since I was a child. Not to mention anything else, she looks like she is in the county town. If you want to marry Xuemei, how many brides have you prepared?"
This was said directly, which made Li Shaoan not react at all and was stunned.
Not to mention Li Shaoan, even the others on the table were stunned. How could anyone say that the third aunt would come out to talk about the dowry? If you want to say that it was Zhao Dashun and his wife who came to discuss it, and they would not talk in front of so many people.
Zhao Dashun quietly glanced at Li Shaoan. He was actually concerned about the bride price. He wanted to find out Li Shaoan's words several times, but it was difficult to ask for his face. Fortunately, the third aunt Xuemei was a poor and uneducated person. She had nothing to pay attention to. She came up and asked directly to the point.
Li Shaoan coughed slightly twice, and smiled at Aunt Xuemei's third son and said, "Auntie, Xuemei and I have not arrived yet. It's too early to say this."
"Not early, no early!"
Aunt San waved her hand and said unobstructedly: "Do you remember the son of the village chief Xuemei married before? At that time, the other party received a bride price of 1,000 yuan. Although it was a poor mountainous area, the village chief's family was really rich!"
As the saying goes, try to speak as little as possible, otherwise you will lose more words. The same is true for these three aunts.
He obviously can't speak, but he has more mouths than anyone else. He doesn't open any pot and has to talk about the past when he eats and chats well. And he is so straightforward that he talks about Zhao Xuemei's past.
Everyone on the table was stunned and secretly glanced at Zhao Dashun to see what his expression was now.
Li Shaoan felt quite unhappy and secretly said that this person was still an aunt. If he said that he was not Xuemei's aunt, he would believe that he was an enemy who came to find trouble.
Even more unhappy than Li Shaoan were Zhao Dashun and Xiao Hongying. The couple had a smile on their faces and asked everyone to take care of their food. When they heard this, their faces turned green.
Xiao Hongying always felt that it was a particularly embarrassing thing for her daughter to divorce. Now she was mentioned, and she felt that she had no place to put her face.
Zhao Dashun has always been a person who wants face. After being told by the third aunt, he seemed to be selling his daughter. Although it was indeed the case before, it was not good to mention it in front of him.
"San Mei'er, you are really. You should say this in front of Shaoan. After all, it is Xuemei's elder, so it shouldn't be."
"That's right, everyone has a meal together, happy, why are you talking about this?"
"Oh, if you can't speak, just say a few less words."
...
Seeing that Zhao Dashun and Xiao Hongying were both dark, the other relatives quickly helped to smooth things over. They scolded Aunt San and blamed him for not being wrong.
"It's all my fault, it's not mine... Look at my mouth, I really can't speak, so I'll stop talking and eat first."
Aunt San smiled foolishly and tied the elastic bands on her waist so that her stomach could be more open and she would eat more meat later.
"Shao'an, don't care, Xuemei's third aunt is just like this, don't worry about it."
After a group of relatives criticized Aunt San, they turned around and began to comfort Li Shaoan again, making him feel relieved.
In fact, everyone's ideas are similar. Isn't Zhao Xuemei just a divorced woman? Apart from what's good about being beautiful, it's a blessing that this fool uses her as a treasure.
Although Li Shaoan was unhappy, he was at someone else's house after all. Before his master Zhao Dashun could speak, he would not go beyond the chef as a guest. Even if he didn't like this third aunt, he could only keep silent.
The atmosphere on the table was very stiff for a while, and everyone was thinking about how to continue the conversation.
In order to alleviate the embarrassment on the table, someone found that Xuemei's fourth uncle and fourth aunt were not at the table, so he just took this opportunity to raise the topic.
"Hey, why didn't the fourth sister come today?"
Xiao Hongying asked, "Dashun, have you called me?"
Zhao Dashun muttered, "I called out all of them, and they also agreed to come in person. Why haven't you come yet? You shouldn't?"
"The fourth sister has always loved to dress up. It's not that she is still applying powder on her face at home now." Someone said on the table.
"How old is it? It's not clear or white. Besides, what to do when I put on my face at this late night, it's like a ghost."
Xiao Hongying rolled her eyes. She had no good expression on Xuemei's fourth aunt. Perhaps the two of them had different horoscopes, and they would definitely have a verbal battle when they met.
Zhao Dashun glared at the guest and said, "Okay, you can say less. Shaoan is here today, don't be shameless."
Others also persuaded: "Second sister, fourth sister is that person, don't be as familiar with her."
As we were talking, everyone was still wondering whether the fourth and fourth sisters were coming today, when they suddenly heard a sharp laugh from a woman outside the yard.
"Oh, everyone has arrived."
"I'm late, I'm late, I'm really sorry today."
The sound was not pleasant, but it was a bit twitching. It sounded uncomfortable to hear the eardrum, like a cat's paws scratching the glass.
Li Shaoan couldn't help frowning. Although he had not seen him yet, he had already had some prejudice against the owner of the voice in his mind.
The relatives of the Zhao family on the table looked at each other and heard the sound before they saw him. Who else could this person be Xuemei's fourth aunt.
The next second, the owner of the sound appeared at the gate of the yard.
Everyone in the main hall waved and said, "Sister Four, you have calculated it, come in quickly."
Chapter completed!
