Emperor Shao's exclusive sweet wife

Chapter 216 The New Year's Eve War of Words

Although Qiao Ran is on vacation, Pei Hao is away, so she sometimes visits the company, leaving less time for Chu Junbei.

But I'll go there when I'm free.

When I went to find Chu Junbei that day, Chu Junbei was not there, but Lin Lanni was sitting in his office reading a magazine.

Seeing Lin Lanni, Qiao Ran was undoubtedly surprised, and so was Lin Lanni.

"Sister-in-law, are you here?" After closing the magazine and putting it on for 100 years, Lin Lanni stood up from the sofa, "Junbei went out and hasn't come back yet. You sit first, I'll pour you a glass of water..."

Perhaps because she felt that this was inappropriate, Lin Lanni immediately changed her words: "Or what do you want to drink? I'll ask the secretary to get it for you?"

This feeling made Qiao Ran feel weird.

Qiao Ran came here a lot, and the people around Chu Junbei were also familiar with her tastes, so there was no need to say anything.

Especially today, Lin Lanni said so. It seems that Lin Lanni is the hostess here and she is a guest.

If you look into it carefully, it's not necessary, but it seems that you are petty, easy to think too much, and too sensitive.

But after thinking about it, Lin Lanni was just too enthusiastic, and she had misunderstood Lin Lanni because of some things before, so she felt that she was thinking too much, shook her head and said, "...No, I'll wait here for Junbei Just come back, how long have you been here?"

"Not long."

The two were chatting. When Chu Junbei came back, Lin Lanni had just left. At that time, Qiao Ran felt strange that Lin Lanni had come to find Chu Junbei, but she left without seeing Chu Junbei. .

"Do you want to call Lenny and ask?" Qiao Ran asked.

Chu Junbei didn't take this kind of thing to heart at all, "No, there should be nothing urgent, otherwise she will call me."

As she said that, she put her arms around Qiao Ran and apologized: "I'm sorry, my wife, because it's the end of the year and the holiday is about to come, there are a lot of things to do, so I'm not at the company today, so I let you go for nothing."

"It's none of your business. I didn't tell you in advance that I'm coming. Next time I come to see you, I'll say hello to you in advance."

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the streets of Suzhou City were covered with red lanterns. From a distance, it looked like a red makeup, charming and spectacular.

"My brother should be back from out of town tonight. Would you like to come to my house on New Year's Eve?" Qiao Ran held Chu Junbei's hand, "Grandpa said this year is the first year I've been home. I live outside, so I can't go to your house."

Originally, Qiao Ran also wanted to go to Chu Junbei's house, but thinking that Mr. Pei was getting older, she didn't know how many more years she would be with Mr. Pei, so she couldn't bear it after all.

Chu Junbei smiled, kissed her neck and said, "It's okay, I'll go to your house, and then we'll make dumplings together."

Qiao Ran laughed at him: "You are the only one who still...makes dumplings? Your hands are so expensive, it's no wonder you can wrap them well."

Although he said so, in fact, Qiao Ran didn't know how to do it herself.

But she didn't mind at all, and Chu Junbei didn't expose her either.

This year's Chinese New Year, Mr. Pei is happier than in previous years, and the home is also decorated very festively. Not only are all kinds of decorations hung indoors, but even big red lanterns are hung on the trees and branches in the yard. Posted new Spring Festival couplets.

On New Year's Eve, Chu Junbei really stayed with Qiao Ran at Pei's house, and actually went to make dumplings.

At that time, Aunt Yun was making dumplings, and Chu Jun Bei and Qiao Ran were there to help each other, chatting while working, but later, fighting became trouble.

The reason is that Chu Junbei looked at the festive arrangement outside the window and thought it was fun, so he became a childlike innocence, and wiped flour on Qiao Ran's face, and Qiao Ran wanted to return it, so the two of them chased each other in the kitchen like children, Flour was scattered all over the floor.

Later, it was Aunt Yun who couldn't stand it any longer, so she invited them out of the kitchen as if in a spirit. When they came out of the kitchen, the two of them were almost like noodles.

Mr. Pei was very happy, leaning on his crutches and said, "Ran Ran, go back to your room and change your clothes. Take a look, what do you look like?"

Pei Hao glared at Chu Junbei, "How old are you, still making such a fuss? Aunt Yun should beat you up with a rolling pin. Go to my room and change clothes. If you continue to behave like this later, I won't let you to the table."

When the voice fell, the person had already entered the kitchen to help Aunt Yun make dumplings.

Pei Hao is different from Chu Junbei and Qiao Ran. He really knows how to make dumplings and cook, and his skills are not bad.

With Pei Hao's help, Aunt Yun will be able to save her worry and effort. The dumplings are quickly wrapped, put into the pot, and served on the table.

Qiao Ran and Chu Junbei had also changed their clothes and came back, clean and in good spirits.

On the dinner table, there is a table of dishes, chicken, duck, fish, meat, everything, and the dumplings are also cute and full, arranged in a crystal clear and orderly manner.

Pei Xianglin looked at the time, then turned to look at the door.

Mr. Pei was a little unhappy, and frowned and asked, "Xianglin, where's your brother? Didn't you tell him to come back for dinner tonight? Why haven't you seen anyone yet?"

It's already almost eight o'clock, and the Spring Festival Gala has been broadcast for almost half an hour, but he still hasn't come back.

Pei Xianglin hurriedly said, "It's already on the way."

"You brat!" Mr. Pei scolded while leaning on his cane.

Qiao Ran didn't want to see Mr. Pei unhappy during the New Year, so she came up with an idea: "Let's guess the riddles, and wait for cousin while we guess."

As soon as she finished speaking, Pei Chengqi came in from the outside.

He took off his coat and threw it on the sofa, then glanced at the dining table, Pei Chengqi smiled, "Hey, are you all here? Junbei is here too? A rare visitor."

While speaking, he moved away from the seat beside Pei Xianglin and sat down.

Mr. Pei blew his beard, "A rare visitor? Junbei comes here more often than you. Compared with him, you seem like a guest."

Pei Chengqi wiped his nose and said with a smile: "Grandpa, don't be angry with me on New Year's Eve today. Besides, didn't I come back late because of something? Okay, okay, I was wrong, come on, I Punish yourself with a cup as an apology to you, okay?"

Seeing that Pei Chengqi really drank a glass of wine by himself, the old man's face softened a little, but he still said earnestly: "It's not that I want to lose my temper with you, this is the first time for Ranran to celebrate the New Year at home, look at what you do Cousin, just come back now."

Pei Chengqi nodded, and he didn't know if he was really doing self-examination, or if he was deliberately stabbing Lao Pei's heart: "Yeah, this is the first time for Ran Ran to celebrate the New Year, but I don't know how many more years I can spend at home. , maybe I have to go to Junbei's house next year."

These words really made Mr. Pei sad, and his eyes darkened.

Qiao Ran thought of what Chu Junbei said to her by the lake that day, and thought it was a bit sweet at first, but now that she heard what Pei Chengqi said, she felt sad for Mr. Pei.

Holding Pei Lao's arm, Qiao Ran said, "Grandpa, don't worry, Junbei and I won't get married yet."

Chu Junbei was unhappy when he heard this, and immediately started looking for opportunities for himself: "Grandpa, even if Ran Ran and I get married, we can still celebrate the New Year together."

Pei Xianglin held Pei Chengqi back and advised, "Today's New Year's Eve, bro, don't make grandpa angry."

Pei Chengqi raised his eyebrows.

His younger sister is acting better than himself now.

Pei Hao, who had been silent all this time, also said: "Yeah, it's rare to come back for a meal, and it's Chinese New Year, so it's better to be friendly."

Because of this sentence, Pei Chengqi's eyes naturally fell on Pei Hao, "That's right, Pei Hao, you have to go out of town again after the Chinese New Year? I won't have much time to go home in the future, and I want to have a good meal Meals should be served too."

Mr. Pei just got better, but now that he heard what Pei Chengqi said, he was so angry that he coughed again, and scolded: "Cheng Qi, did you come back today to anger me on purpose?"

"No, Grandpa, you've misunderstood me. I came back today to accompany you to celebrate the New Year." Pei Chengqi took out a small packaged gift box from his pocket, "This is a New Year's gift specially bought for you."

Qiao Ran hurriedly said: "Grandpa, what cousin said just now was not intentional, so don't take it to heart."

Pei Hao also said: "Yes, Grandpa, Cheng Qi and I have always been like this, if you are joking, don't take it seriously."

Pei Xianglin also followed suit, and after persuading for a long time, Mr. Pei's mood finally calmed down. The family had a New Year's Eve dinner, and by the way, took this opportunity to persuade Mr. Pei not to go back to the suburbs, and stayed here all the time. accepted.

After finishing the meal, Pei Xianglin took Pei Chengqi back to the room, and closing the door was a lesson: "Brother, what's the matter with you? I told you to come back early today. It's good for you, come back It's fine if it's so late, and you'll be angry with grandpa as soon as you come back, what if something happens to grandpa?"

Mr. Pei said in his will that most of his property would be given to Qiao Ran and Pei Hao after his death. She coaxed Mr. Pei to change his will last time but failed.

Pei Chengqi lit a cigarette, raised his eyelids to look at Pei Xianglin, and spoke in a very light tone: "Xianglin, I'm going to see Dad."

Pei Xianglin was taken aback.

She didn't know that Pei Chengqi went to see Pei Ping. In fact, since the day Pei Ping disappeared, she never heard from him again.

She always thought that Pei Chengqi was the same, but it turns out...

"You have contact with Dad?"

"Dad contacted me a few days ago, and I didn't know where he was." Pei Chengqi shook the soot, eyes half-closed, "Dad is not doing well now, I..."

Before he finished speaking, Pei Xianglin was not in the mood to listen. She was more concerned about other things: "Why didn't you take me to see Dad? Did you and Dad have any plans to hide from me and don't want me to know?"

Pei Chengqi felt that his younger sister had become stupid recently.

"Have you been with Xie Ruiyu for a long time, so your brain is not very sharp?" Pei Chengqi asked, "We brother and sister went together, how eye-catching? What if we are seen by others? Can you move?" brain?"

After being told by Pei Chengqi, Pei Xianglin felt that it seemed to be the case.

After muttering for a while, Pei Xianglin finally asked: "You just said that Dad is not doing well? What's wrong with him?"

"What else can I do? Chu Junbei and Pei Hao's people have been looking for him all the time, causing him to hide. What do you think I went to see him today? It's to give him money, and I thought there was something good about it. ?”

Pei Xianglin lowered her head, as if she knew she had made a mistake and corrected it, and let Pei Chengqi scold her without answering a word.
