Chapter 158 Always making others feel sorry

Bai Ruozhu was amused by Yu Hongxiu's appearance. She took out a basin with some skin jelly in it, then cut off a piece of the same stuff and patched it back.

Yu Hongxiu patted her chest, but stared at Bai Ruozhu's big basin with bright eyes, with an obvious expression of "I want to eat more".

Bai Ruozhu smiled and took a spoonful of it and fed it to her, "Don't eat any more, otherwise you will run out of stomach to taste other delicious dishes. Don't forget your big crab."

Yu Hongxiu then wiped the corners of her mouth, nodded and said, "You're right, your cooking skills are so good, I must try every dish."

People who like cooking naturally like people who eat to praise their cooking skills, so Bai Ruozhu was in a particularly good mood. The two of them were talking and laughing, and they were not so tired from working.

Somehow, the two of them started talking about their marriage. Yu Hongxiu blushed and said, "I'll tell you secretly, I was actually unwilling to marry Xie Dun at first." Xie Dun was Mr. Xie's first name.

"I was the only daughter of my parents and they didn't want me to get married too early, so I didn't start discussing marriage until I was eighteen years old. At that time, Xie Dun and Mr. Meng went south to handle official business. I don't know why Mr. Meng wanted to marry me and Xie Dun held the red thread. My dad was very satisfied with Xie Dun when he came back and told me that when I heard that he was eleven years older than me, he got angry and said that my parents didn't love me at all and asked me to marry an old man. .”

Yu Hongxiu laughed as she spoke, and red clouds flew up on her pretty face.

"Mr. Xie doesn't look like an old man anymore. He looks about the same age as my elder brother." Bai Ruozhu agreed smartly.

Yu Hongxiu gave her an angry look, "Stop coaxing me with nice words, he doesn't look like a twenty-year-old young man, okay? Anyway, I made a lot of trouble at that time, and then I met Xie Dun and realized that I had made a mistake in marrying a Someone who is more mature and steady is also good.”

"Yes, it seems that Mr. Xie knows how to care for others." Bai Ruozhu said with a smile.

Yu Hongxiu's face turned red again. She gave Bai Ruozhu a false slap and asked, "What happened to your marriage? I heard that your husband married into your family and then disappeared in an accident. Don't blame me for speaking out. , don’t you have any plans?”

Bai Ruozhu smiled bitterly, "The child has been born, what else can be done?"

She really had a bad fate. Even if she had already married someone in the past, it would not be impossible for her to remarry in the future. The people of Danliang were open-minded, and divorce and remarriage were nothing new.

But she got pregnant as soon as she got dressed, and now she has Deng Deng. Even if others don't dislike her for bringing a drag bottle, she still has to consider whether the person she wants to remarry is really good to Deng Deng. She doesn't want Deng Deng. You will be wronged in the future.

Yu Hongxiu sighed, holding Bai Ruozhu's hand with some distress and said, "A person as outstanding as you will definitely find a good home in the future."

Bai Ruozhu smiled and nodded. She didn't mind too much, so why did she let others feel sorry for her?

What else did the two of them want to say, but Lin Ping'er walked in and said with a smile: "You are so excited about chatting, aren't you ready to start dinner?"

Bai Ruozhu laughed and said, "Okay, let's serve the dishes now. Sister Hongxiu, go ahead and eat. You must tell me your comments about each dish later. You can't just praise it, but also give your suggestions. I It could be improved.”

"Okay, okay, you should come over and eat together and have more people to talk to me." Yu Hongxiu said with a smile.

"Your eldest brother has already gone to invite your grandpa. Let's put the cold dishes on the table first." Lin Ping'er said and winked at Bai Ruozhu. It would be inappropriate for the old man not to invite him, but there was obviously a tough battle to be fought later.

Bai Ruozhu nodded slightly to her mother and arranged for the cold dishes to be served. Bai Yihong took out good wine and poured it for Mr. Xie and Mrs. Xie.

The time was just right, and there were indeed footsteps outside. It was Bai Zehao who invited the old man back, but his face didn't look good, because it wasn't just the old man who came, but also Bai Yibo.

Bai Zehao excused himself to go to the kitchen and said depressedly, "Little sister, I couldn't convince my uncle to stop him from coming over."

Bai Ruozhu lowered his voice and said, "Can you be blamed for this? He is so shameless, who can stop him?"

Bai Zehao was a little guilty at first, but after hearing Bai Ruozhu's words, he couldn't help but laugh, and his mood suddenly became much better.

"Brother, please go to the table and accompany me. If the uncle says something wrong, don't choke on him or blame him. Try to help him make things right." Bai Ruozhu brought a plate of dishes to Bai Zehao and whispered.

"W-why is this necessary?" Bai Zehao said with a look of disapproval.

"How do outsiders know about the past between us and the old house? They only see today. After all, our main task is to entertain guests, not to quarrel with the uncle. The main thing is to let the guests enjoy themselves and not affect the guests' emotions. Other things will come later Talk slowly." Bai Ruozhu explained in a low voice.

Bai Zehao felt embarrassed, "It's better to be a little girl who knows the basics. I just thought about it and got angry for a while."

Bai Ruozhu patted her eldest brother and said, "Stop hating me. I still want to kick my uncle out. I don't even kiss my grandpa, but isn't there anything I can do?"

There is another point that Bai Ruozhu did not say clearly. Mr. Xie was able to pay filial piety to his family elders three times, which shows that he is a person who attaches great importance to filial piety. If they embarrass the old man, it would be unfilial. It is likely to arouse Mr. Xie's dissatisfaction and even affect Bai Zepei's reputation in Mr. Xie's heart. of praise.

Bai Zehao brought the dishes to the table. Bai Zepei had already introduced Mr. Xie outside. Mr. Xie saluted the old man very politely. They were both scholars, and the old man was still the elder by generation.

Bai Yibo is also older than Mr. Xie and is also a scholar, so Mr. Xie is also very polite to him. When Lin Ping'er saw Bai Yibo's proud smile, her heart became blocked and she simply ran to the kitchen to help Bai Ruozhu work.

Bai Ruozhu also persuaded her mother. Originally, she wanted to act according to the situation and prevent Bai Yibo from getting close to Mr. Xie, but she just heard that Mr. Xie had observed filial piety three times, so her policy had to change.

Lin Ping'er listened to Bai Ruozhu's explanation and quickly figured it out, but she still felt uncomfortable and asked, "Then let's let that kind of person wander?"

"Mom, Mr. Xie is also a person who has seen the world. I heard that he even went south on business. What kind of person have I not seen? How can people not see through someone as unstable as my uncle? I'm not sure what he left behind in the end. Not a good impression." Bai Ruozhu said with a smile.

Lin Ping'er thought of Bai Yibo's proud attitude and couldn't help but nod. It was dazzling to look at him like that, let alone Mr. Xie. Thinking of this, Lin Ping'er felt better again.

Bai Ruozhu moved very quickly, and soon the dishes were on the table. Mr. Xie couldn't help but nodded and praised: "Ze Pei, why didn't you invite me to your house for dinner earlier? You really don't know how to respect a teacher. ."

Everyone knew that Mr. Xie was joking, and he also praised the Bai family's delicious food in a different direction. The Bai family was very happy, but unfortunately at this moment, an inappropriate voice sounded...
