Chapter 45
The old man of the Jun family seems to be in a good mood today, the smile on his face has hardly gone down, and the hall is full of joy.

As the eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Jiang was in charge of organizing this family banquet. Seeing that the time was almost up, she walked to the old man and asked in a low voice, "Father, it's almost auspicious time. Do you think you should move to the flower hall first?"

Upon hearing this, the old man gave an order, "Go to the flower hall."

Hearing this, Mrs. Jiang, who had been 'in the cold' all along, stretched out her hand and said, "Father, I will help you."

The old man stood up on crutches, "No need! My health is fine, so I don't need to help."

Mrs. Jiang withdrew her hand in embarrassment, and was squeezed behind by others in the blink of an eye.

Everyone in the hall surrounded Mr. Jun and left together.

In the hustle and bustle just now, only her and Uncle Jiu were left in the blink of an eye. Yan Ruoxue shook her head with a smile and said, "Shall we go there too?"

"it is good."

Yan Ruoxue pushed Jun Wuyong slowly along the path, surrounded by lights and festoons, and occasionally servants passed by, but they were mostly in a hurry and did not disturb the two of them.

Jun Wuyong liked the tranquility and warmth of this moment very much, and couldn't help but want to prolong this warmth, "There is a fountain over there, and many famous flowers are planted around it, do you want to go and see it?"

Following the direction of Uncle Jiu's finger, Yan Ruoxue saw the fountain in the distance, hesitated a little, Yan Ruoxue looked towards the brightly lit direction not far away, and said in a low voice: "The banquet is about to start, if people find out that we are not here, it seems that we are not here." Ok?"

Jun Wuyong's hand tightened slightly, "Let's go to the flower hall."

"it is good."

Yan Ruoxue took a step forward and continued walking.

Lanterns of various shapes illuminate the lawn as if it were daytime.

On the lawn, there are five big round tables, and there is a huge stage opposite the round tables.

Mr. Jun and eight middle-aged men sat at the front, and the table slightly behind sat a few middle-aged women dressed in jewels, and the rest of the tables were basically young people. Like the table, men and women sit separately.

Yan Ruoxue said in a low voice regretfully, "It seems we have to sit separately."

Jun Wuyong raised his head slightly, and said in a low voice, "Did you see that woman in the pink cheongsam?"

"Ah."

"For a while, you sit next to her, she is..." Jun Wuyong paused slightly before saying, "Papa's woman."

"I see." As far as she knew, Mr. Jun had a lot of lovers, five of whom were brought into the mansion, and three of them were sitting at the banquet tonight, and the woman in the pink cheongsam was three. favored among people

Although she is only in her 30s, she has been with Mr. Jun for nearly ten years.

Jun Wuyong pursed his lips slightly, and said in a low voice: "Try to talk less to sister-in-law and sister-in-law three, and if they say something unpleasant, find an excuse to leave."

"Well, if someone bullies me, I'll go find you." Saying that, Yan Ruoxue grabbed Jun Wuyong's arm, her big watery eyes were full of trust and dependence, "You have to protect me."

Jun Wuyong blurted out, "Okay, I will protect you."

Hearing this, the corners of Yan Ruoxue's mouth instantly raised, and her voice was soft, "I knew that Uncle Jiu is the best."

For a moment, Jun Wuyong saw countless stars in those eyes, turned around quickly, and looked forward.

After a while, Yan Ruoxue heard Uncle Jiu almost whispering, "Yes."

Lowering her head in doubt, Yan Ruoxue saw a pair of pink ear tips.

Uncle Jiu is... shy?

When he came to the main table, Jun Wuyong got out of the wheelchair and moved to the seat at the end.

Mr. Jun, who was talking to Jun Changsheng, saw the two of them, and said to Yan Ruoxue with a loving face, "Xiaoxue, today is your first time eating at home, so sit next to Lao Jiu."

The old man's voice was not too loud, and everyone sitting at the main table and everyone near the main table heard it.

No one expected that the old man would look at a happy little girl differently. For a while, everyone re-evaluated Yan Ruoxue's value.

Mrs. Jiang got up, looked at Mr. Jun, and said, "Dad, I know that you feel sorry for this child, but...the rule that women are not at the main table has existed since ancient times. Today's dinner is just for auspiciousness and to recruit some for the family." Blessing, if it's because of breaking the rules..." Madam Jiang paused for a moment, with a perplexed expression on her face, and said, "I'm afraid it's not right."

Hearing this, Mr. Jun laughed loudly, and said: "Xiaoxue looks like a lucky girl. Since she married Lao Jiu, my health is getting better every day. Taking advantage of the opportunity today, the little girl will accompany the old man." I'll have a meal, maybe, and I'll be cured tomorrow."

Mrs. Jiang wanted to persuade her again, but seeing her husband winking at her, she had no choice but to flatter Mr. Jun's words, and then reluctantly returned to her seat.

Seeing Mrs. Jiang leave, Yan Ruoxue's mouth curled up slightly, a little shy, and said: "It's my good fortune to be able to sit at the same table with you for dinner."

"Haha... the little girl's small mouth is really pleasing."

Seeing that the old man was happy, everyone echoed and flattered him.

The lights were brilliant, and everyone in the Jun family had joyful smiles on their faces.

A moment later, the sound of gongs, drums and suona sounded behind the stage, and a group of people in costumes came on stage one after another.

"Ahhhh...Three cannon shots outside the gate were like thunderclaps..."

Seeing that Xue'er's eyes were full of curiosity, Jun Wuyong curled his lips slightly, and said in a low voice: "This is Mu Guiying in command."

Yan Ruoxue turned her head slightly, "Uncle Jiu likes Peking Opera?"

"I will listen to it every year."

"Oh." Compared with Beijing opera, Yan Ruoxue is more interested in Uncle Jiu, "What does Uncle Jiu usually like?"

Hearing this, the smile on the corner of Jun Wuyong's mouth paused slightly, and said in a low voice, "Listen to the play first."

"Oh." Seeing that Uncle Jiu didn't want to chat with her, Yan Ruoxue looked at the stage a little disappointed.

Jun Wuyong's hand on the armrest tightened slightly, he seemed to have said something wrong just now...

Jun Wuyong carefully recalled what happened just now...Maybe, Xueer doesn't like listening to operas?

Coming to a conclusion, Jun Wuyong whispered, "You can go home in a while."

"Ah."

Seeing that Xue'er didn't half turn her body towards her and talk to herself as before, Jun Wuyong couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.

What he liked to do most in the past was to secretly watch Xue'er and inquire about her.

If Xueer found out, she would definitely hate him even more, right?
