Chapter 624 Nephew and cousin, too affectionate (56)
Si Le was visiting a Jiangnan family at this time, and the host of the family was bringing her a few dishes of side dishes with enthusiasm. He opened his mouth to say something, but when he looked up, he saw Si Le's face After showing a blank expression, he finally just opened his mouth and retreated embarrassingly.
"How long does your wife want me to wait?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as the man retreated to the door, Si Le asked.
"Wife master... it will take at least two hours to finish that furnace..."
"Father! What are you talking about?!"
A sharp female voice directly interrupted the male host's unfinished words. A pretty girl wearing a rare black ancient cloth robe came in and scolded the male host:
"Mother is not at home at this time. Don't talk nonsense and mislead the guests! Why don't you go to the kitchen and warm up another pot of wine?!"
The harsh words she spoke didn't seem to be giving orders to her elders at all, but more like giving orders to the servants.The strange thing is that the man just answered yes without refuting, but his back was even more stooped when he went out.
Si Le looked at the high-spirited woman who walked in the door, with an intriguing smile on her face:
"This is the eldest lady of the Fan family."
"Where do you dare to be Wu Xian's eldest lady? My lord mother is really not in the village at this time. I don't know if lord Wu Xian is here today. What orders do you have?"
She was very polite in her words, but she didn't show much respect in her actions. She walked to the main seat and sat down, an unknown light flashed in her slender eyes.
"I don't dare to obey orders. For so many years, you have lived a very comfortable life in Ghost Prison Eighteen Villages. It has been 80 years since I last came."
Si Le smiled and scooped up the sticky porridge in the bowl in front of her, and spoke so tepidly that no one could tell her emotions at all.Miss Fan's face on the opposite side slightly distorted when she heard the words, and then said with a smile:
"Thanks to Wu Xian's help, otherwise we would not have been able to keep a single ghost in the Eighteen Villages. Thanks to Wu Xian for showing us the way, otherwise our Eighteen Villages have a radius of hundreds of miles, how could we be like today?" Is it so comfortable like this?"
She couldn't help what she said, so Si Le could hear it naturally. She raised her face and sneered sarcastically: "Listen to Miss, are you complaining that I didn't send the Buddha to the West?"
"Fan Cheng dare not!"
Seeing that the expression on Si Le's face had turned cold, and the previous aura was gone, the eldest lady of the Fan family easily gave in - this was a natural reaction caused by years of accumulation.Realizing her own reaction, Miss Fan's complexion became even uglier.
She wanted to raise her head and chest again, but after lowering her head just that moment, she could no longer gather the momentum. Even if she did, it would only add to the laughter.
She was annoyed, but at this moment she was powerless to recover. Fortunately, the man who waited on food and drink came in again. He was holding a jug of warm wine in his hand, and was about to pour wine for Si Le and Fan Cheng respectively. Cheng then flicked his sleeves and swept the wine in his hand to the ground:
"Where does this grain wine come from? Why don't you use the newly brewed lotus leaf wine at home to entertain guests?! Don't you know that Master Wu Xian is the benefactor of our Eighteenth Village and you should treat him favorably?!?!"
