Chapter 96 Retreat as Advance (8)

Chapter 96

Wan Qing can foresee that the family life in the future, maybe every dinner table will be a battlefield filled with gunpowder smoke. Seeing Lai Xue at this moment really makes it easy to generate fighting spirit.

But this fighting spirit is not yet high, Mrs. Qiao has already stood up first, and the effect is surprisingly good. Over there, Lai Fengyi has rushed over, scolding with dissatisfaction on her face:
"Xiaoxue, what are you talking about? I haven't seen my eldest brother and sister-in-law yet!"

Lai Fengyi's unshakable eyes and tone finally subdued Lai Xue's anger. Lai Xue's face gradually restrained her emotions, but she did not completely follow Lai Fengyi's request, but she glanced at Wan Sunny, show courtesy to Mrs. Qiao.

"Grandma, guess what good things I brought you today?"

It's amazing that Lai Xue's facial makeup changed so quickly during this moment of surprise. Obviously, at this moment, no one wants to lose to the other, and everyone recognizes the trump card of Mrs. Qiao.

But in the face of Lai Xue's hospitality, Mrs. Qiao did not answer, Lai Xue was not discouraged, but turned around and smiled at Mo Lingtian beside him, pushing his arm and said:
"Open it quickly and let grandma see it!"

It was only at this time that Wan Qing noticed that Mo Lingtian was holding a box wrapped in silk in his hand. The silk was not the latest silk, but looked a little old, and it must have been a few years old.

But Mo Lingtian was not in a hurry to open it, but explained casually:
"It's the recipe that Cixi used in his later years. When he went to hold a trade fair last time, a descendant of the Eight Banners gave it to him!"

After hearing what Mo Lingtian had said, Mrs. Qiao's complexion had changed just now, she couldn't help but see a gleam in her eyes, her face had already softened a lot, and she had already signaled Wan Qing to say:

"Give it to grandma to have a look!"

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Qiao asked her to take it. The astonishment flashed on Wan Qing's face and the unhappiness flashed in Lai Xue's eyes appeared at the same time. When facing him, Mo Lingtian's eyes were so indifferent. The fluctuation was extremely small, and when she met Wan Qing's eyes, the indifference in her eyes was very stinging.

She couldn't figure out what Madam Qiao was doing this for, but Wan Qing didn't want to lose her composure at all. She got up, moved over slowly, and walked up to Mo Lingtian without even looking at him. She took the silk-wrapped box in his hand, and then turned back calmly. She didn't bother to pay attention to the eyes of the two behind her, but handed the box to Mrs. Qiao with a smile and said:

"Grandma, please take a look!"

It can be seen that Lai Xue is very good at matching what he likes. When Mrs. Qiao opened the brocade box, her hand movements were obviously a little fast. It can be seen that the thing Mo Lingtian is holding is extremely precious, and even the brocade box does not look like a fake , the craftsmanship of the Qing Dynasty, with the luxury of imperial power and exquisite workmanship, the few pages of yellow paper lying in the box are the recipes.

After Mrs. Qiao put on her glasses, she began to study them carefully. She could see that this thing was more gimmick to her than the high-quality blood swallow. Her eyes were sometimes bright and sometimes dark, and she pursed her lips in silence. In between, her complexion is soft and she has a scholarly demeanor, which also makes her more temperamental than ordinary old ladies.

"Ling Tian, ​​you friends are really powerful, you can find anything you look for!"

With the look of winning a game, Lai Xue pulled Mo Lingtian to sit on the opposite sofa with a relaxed expression, while Lai Fengyi on the side had already walked over with a snack.

"Don't be hungry, eat some snacks and wait, your dad will come back later!"

Lai Xue saw the dim sum, then glanced at her mother who loved her dearly, and couldn't help showing a charming smile:

"thanks Mom!"

Lai Fengyi just smiled helplessly, seeing that Lai Xue had taken two pieces of snacks and carefully distributed them to Mo Lingtian, she turned around in satisfaction and walked towards Wanqing.

When Lai Fengyi walked over, a condescending smile flashed in Lai Xue's eyes. This smile was as uncomfortable and unpleasant as when she was framed and pushed down. Leaning against Mo Lingtian's side, she said coquettishly:
"Ling Tian, ​​this is the most famous pineapple stuffing, you sing it, it tastes good!"

Seeing Lai Xue's unceremonious demonstration, Wan Qing's eyes had already moved away, and she turned to look at Qiao Jinfan, only to see that there was not much emotion on his face, but there was a faint coldness, at this moment he seemed to be A spectator coldly glanced at everything in front of him, only when Wan Qing looked at him, she showed a faint smile.

"Wan Qing, this is pineapple pancake, eat some to stave off your hunger!"

Seeing that Lai Fengyi bent over and was about to hand over the pineapple cake, Wan Qing was not polite, and when she stretched out her foot, she just kicked Lai Fengyi's foot, then lowered her head, covered her foot and said:

"It hurts!"

When Wan Qing covered her ankle, Qiao Jinfan asked worriedly:

"What's wrong? I touched my foot again?"

Mrs. Qiao raised her head when she heard the news, looked at Wan Qing's still swollen feet, and ordered:

"Let Sister Yang bring some medicated oil to rub on you!"

But Qiao Jinfan had already got up, came to Wan Qing's side and said:

"I have spare medicine in the car, don't bother Sister Yang!"

Qiao Jinfan didn't give Mrs. Qiao a chance to speak, helped Wan Qing up, and passed by the stiff-faced Lai Fengyi, while Lai Xue, who had clearly seen the truth, suppressed the anger on her face as she wanted to explode, while she Mo Lingtian beside him looked at Wan Qing coldly, in that eyes she looked like a bad woman.

"Jin Fan, this really doesn't look like your home!"

Wan Qing ignored the expressions and eyes of Lai Xue and Mo Lingtian, but let Qiao Jinfan support her, and complained coquettishly as she moved outwards.

"Well, that's how the dove occupies the magpie's nest, it makes you wronged!"

Qiao Jinfan's tone was affectionate, as if he could only see Wan Qing's appearance in his eyes, and raised his voice in a moderate tone. It was a very casual tone, but it had a very strong lethality.

"Who are you talking about?"

Lai Xue got up abruptly, while Lai Fengyi on the side had already yelled.

"Little Snow!"
