The modern me and the Republic of China her

Chapter 10
His clothes were long and hot, and they had the same pink fine silk-satin gown and white lambskin shoes.The elder sister wears a green emerald bead chain, the younger sister wears a gold lock inlaid with jade on both sides, and a pair of carved gold bracelets are wrapped around her small wrists.

The children were simple-minded. He collected some clues from the chats of the twin sisters, and roughly figured out the relationship chain: Mr. Gu married three wives.

The eldest wife has a pair of twin sons: the elder brother Qi Ming who found him in the woods; the second elder brother Qi Jiang who went to Japan to study in spring, will come only after a holiday, and I won’t be able to see him for the time being.

The younger sisters were born by the third wife. They are cute, talkative and laughing, and are much more beautiful than their mothers.

He is the only child of the second wife, but he is the loneliest and lacks the most love.As for the situation of the biological mother, I also asked a few maids who seemed honest in private.It's a pity they can't tell her whereabouts.

They and they all have mother's love, but he doesn't have mother's love, at most he can get one-fifth of father's love.Such a situation is very dependent.

A child without a mother must be likable, otherwise he will be bullied.

Thinking of his mother, although he had never seen her before and knew nothing about it, his heart was filled with curiosity about the second wife:
What kind of woman was it, and what prompted her to abandon her underage flesh and blood and disappear?

"The guests are here, third brother, it's time to eat!"

He looked up and saw the eldest wife and the third wife walking over step by step, holding the hand of a noble lady.There was also a young lady in a western-style dress walking side by side with the elder brother.The clothes of the two ladies reflect the fashion of high society, and they are mother and daughter at a glance.

This table dish was finally eaten in the anticipation of the children.

Xiaofa was right across from that lady.In order not to annoy his elders, he didn't even dare to pick up a chopstick on the nearest dish in front of him.

She glanced at him, smiled friendly, and asked the elder brother sitting next to her: "Qi Ming, is this your little brother who ran away from home? He looks really good."

While serving her food, the eldest brother replied casually:

"Qilan, a little turtle with a shrunken head, always pretends to be shy in front of strangers."

Xiaofa thought, the elder brother is not kind, he deliberately belittled him in front of the girls.He waved his chopsticks and kept his head down to eat the rice in the bowl, and he ate up a bowl of white rice in a few mouthfuls.

"Qi Ming, you order more food for your younger brother, he doesn't eat much food, he eats all the rice."

The young lady's gaze had shifted to him at some point.Looking at Xiaofa's long hair and thin arms, the other children's bright clothes and his old and out-of-season long trousers, he seemed to understand something.

She sympathized with him, looked at the thin child with a pair of talking eyes, and gently reminded the elder brother to bring him some food.The eldest brother picked up a sea prawn, threw it into his bowl impatiently, and added half a crab copiously.

"Brother, don't pinch, third brother is allergic to seafood!"

"Third brother gets a rash every time he eats crabs!"

The twin sisters shouted at the same time, and the atmosphere was awkward.

Seafood accounted for [-]% of the table, except for a roast duck that was divided in the center of the table, the rest were nothing more than appetizers, small pastries and fruit plates.

The best part of the roast duck has been cut and placed on the guests' plates.

Except for the empty plate in front of Xiaofa, everyone got a few pieces.The meat is perfectly grilled, the skin is crispy, rolled up and shiny.

The twins were still children, and they didn't realize the importance of fairness. They just buried themselves in eating roast duck and chatting about which new toy house on the street had the most fun.

But this lady is obviously unusual.After just sitting at the dining table for a while, I was keenly aware of an awkward atmosphere.

He frowned slightly dissatisfied, and couldn't understand the naked injustice within the family.

She stood up abruptly, picked up the plate and handed it to the young man with both hands, and said softly:

"Xiaolan, don't eat seafood, eat roast duck."

Unable to lose face, the eldest brother burped loudly twice, and hurriedly brought over the leftover roast duck in a hypocritical way:
"Miss Zhu, you are a distinguished guest. You will make us feel that we are not being treated well. Qilan has a small stomach, so just eat a few yuan from me." After finishing speaking, he reached out to take back the plate that Miss Zhu gave Xiaofa.

Xiaofa saw the hypocrisy of big brother clearly.

Before this person put clothes on him and ate the overnight butter rose cake, he was still touched by the brotherhood;

Now he doesn't even want to pick a few chopsticks properly. He just pretends to act brotherly love because he is afraid of losing face in front of the guests.

Compared with the evil of the third wife, the evil of the eldest brother is hidden.

This kind of person has duplicity, and seems to be more terrifying than a dominatrix who shows her teeth and claws in the open.

He didn't want to disappoint everyone at the table, so he stood up and pushed the plate away, politely rejecting her offer:
"Miss Zhu, thank you. I ate a lot on the way home, and I'm still full."

Seeing her daughter standing there in a daze with a plate, Mrs. Zhu quickly put down the tableware to make a rescue:
"Juanjuan, this young master is shy, so don't force him to eat."

Zhu Juanjuan sighed softly, had to sit down and continue eating.I feel sorry for Xiaofa, I can't whet my appetite anymore.She ate a few strawberries and didn't move anything.

The dishes that Qi Ming solicitously picked up filled the two big plates, and the wine that was poured had already overflowed the glass, so she didn't even bother to take care of it and turned a blind eye.

Xiaofa put down the bowl and chopsticks, took a piece of watermelon and ate it in small bites.

He was already paying attention to his appearance, but the third wife, who was used to turning bones in eggs, frowned in disgust, and her scarlet nails scratched on the tablecloth:
"You even forgot the basic table rules? The watermelon water stained the tablecloth, are you blind or did it on purpose?!"

Xiaofa was agitated for a while.He always eats watermelon as happily as possible.

She obviously didn't make a sound, but just dropped two small drops of juice, and she couldn't bear to look at her and cursed.

The hypocrisy and boredom of the third wife are really extraordinary.Reincarnated into modern society, he must be an out-and-out professional scolder.

Mrs. Da and Mrs. Zhu turned her attention to a topic of great value:
"Mrs. Zhu, how would you like my Qimin to be your son-in-law?" The eldest lady smiled and touched the cards while getting involved in the marriage of her children.

"Mr. Qiming is a talented person with a bright future." Mrs. Zhu didn't answer the main point.

"Young Master and Ms. Zhu can go for more walks and play together to enhance their relationship." The third wife said tentatively, and glanced at Ms. Zhu out of the corner of her eye.

The other party didn't seem to hear, and he lowered his head and didn't answer.

Xiaofa looked at this kind and kind Ms. Zhu, and then at Gu Qimin, and felt that the two of them were not the same at all:

He is dignified and dignified, the eldest son of the Gu family hides a knife in his smile.What is the background of the Zhu family?Why is the Gu family in such a hurry to marry the Zhu family?These are mysteries to be solved.
