Chapter 166 Gourmet Hot Pot
Ji Mingzhu kept complaining to Xie Zhao, but when she saw her brother's face getting darker and darker, her voice became smaller and smaller. Until the last sentence, she didn't dare to say it, but she kept rolling her eyes in her heart. Her brother's temperament was as rigid as the men of the Ji family were unrestrained and unrestrained. She didn't know who would marry him in the future and guaranteed that she would not be angry to death.
Xie Zhao and Ji Minghui looked at Ji Mingzhu with a funny look. Didn’t this girl know that she had said what she was in her heart? Looking at Ji Mingjie’s dark face, Ji Minghui couldn’t help but pat Ji Mingzhu’s head gently and said helplessly: “Mingzhu, you have said everything in your heart. Let’s look up and see your brother Mingjie’s face!”
Ji Mingzhu looked at her brother when she heard this. She was so angry that she didn't dare to speak out. She quietly hid behind Ji Minghui, wrinkled a pretty face and blinked her eyes with guilt, poked Ji Minghui with her fingers, and said in a low voice: "Second brother, help me, if my brother does this, I will definitely take revenge. Your poor sister is afraid that there will be no good life in the future."
"Ji Mingzhu! Wait for me!" Seeing the sister hiding behind her second brother and talking, Ji Mingjie was so angry that he gritted his teeth. It was also annoying to have such a sister!
Ji Minghui turned his head and looked at his sister hiding behind him, then looked at his younger brother who was so angry that he only gritted his teeth, and persuaded him helplessly: "Okay, Mingjie, Mingzhu is just having fun with you. You are a lot of adults, and you are calculating about so much with your sister. Why do you do?" He turned around and looked at Ji Mingzhu and said: "Mingzhu, you are the same. Say sorry to your brother, this matter will be over."
Hearing Ji Mingzhu's low apology, Ji Mingjie snorted coldly, nodded to Ji Minghui, as if he gave his second brother a face, and pointed at Ji Mingzhu with his finger and said, "No, let me hear you treat a few brothers who are not big or small. Look at how I deal with you!"
"Okay, Mingzhu is just speaking in front of her family. When did she treat us brothers too seriously? Mingjie, don't be too serious with her sister." Ji Minghui has always been very fond of Ji Mingzhu. Maybe it's because he has too many brothers and only this sister, or maybe it's because Ji Mingzhu has been protecting his second brother since she was a child. In the end, Ji Mingzhu can't stand others saying that Ji Mingzhu is not good, and her family is not good either, so Ji Mingxuan is an exception.
Seeing the three brothers and sisters not being so serious and noisy, Xie Zhao took a sip of tea and lowered his head to smile. I think the relationship between the Ji family is very good, and it is not as dirty as ordinary people. In this way, even if he marrys Ji Mingxuan in the future, he will save a lot of worries.
In fact, no matter what the Ji family’s relationship is, Ji Mingxuan’s concern for Xie Zhao, the relationship will not affect Xie Zhao. Xie Zhao is simply thinking too much, but most girls’ families have to deal with the relationship between their in-laws’ families afterwards, so it’s normal for her to think so.
Several people chatted without a word. When Ji Mingchuan returned to the study with an easel in his arms, it was already noon. Before he could appreciate his paintings, the people who came to deliver lunch had arrived. Two clerks carried things from the car with big pots and small pots.
Looking at the tables in the hall full of delicious food, except for Xie Zhao, the Ji family were stunned. It was Ji Mingzhu who suddenly remembered that Xie Zhao had called in the small yard in the morning. It turned out that he had arranged someone to deliver lunch to them! Thinking of this, Ji Mingzhu smiled at Xie Zhaomei and said, "My sister-in-law is really thinking."
"There is not much business in this weather, so we won't go back and forth. I asked someone to make some from the store, so everyone can just eat some." Xie Zhao nodded with a smile and explained softly.
After seeing off the clerk, the few people were not polite. After washing their hands, they sat down in front of the table. Looking at the boiling double pot on the table, they all put their favorite food into the pot. Even the mature and persistent Ji Mingjie was a little excited. In this weather, it was indeed a good thing for everyone to sit together to eat hot pot.
After eating voraciously for more than an hour, Ji Mingzhu put down her chopsticks and looked at Xie Zhao who had already put down her chopsticks and drank a bottle of yogurt, saying, "Sister-in-law, you have eaten too little, do you don't like hot pot or the amount of food is so small?"
"I have eaten a lot today and I like hot pot." Xie Zhao was stunned when he heard Ji Mingzhu's words. She had eaten a lot today, so why would he think she had eaten less?
After taking the yogurt handed to her by Xie Zhao, Ji Mingzhu said to Xie Zhao while drinking it: "No wonder you are so thin and you eat too little. Sister-in-law, look at how much I ate just now. My meal can be as good as your day!"
"It's not that exaggerating. I haven't eaten much. Don't worry about me. I think you like hot pot. Next time you want to eat, go to the store to eat it. The taste should be pretty good." Xie Zhao shook his head and said with a chuckle.
Ji Mingzhu nodded, glanced at the two brothers who were still eating and one younger brother whispered: "Sister-in-law, we will go alone next time and won't take them to play."
"Okay, let's go alone."
After everyone had enough food and drink, several people quickly packed up and went to the study with a bottle of yogurt to prepare to enjoy Ji Mingchuan's paintings. It has to be said that Ji Mingchuan is indeed talented in painting. Although they have a little bit of knowledge about painting, Ji Mingchuan's painting is really great.
The few people here are all knowledgeable and they are very familiar when chatting. I don’t know why, but as they talk about ancient literature, this is their profession for Xie Zhao and Ji Mingzhu, especially Ji Mingzhu is obviously much more excited.
When talking about several famous works, everyone expressed their opinions. Just as most boys like "Water Margin", "Three Kingdoms", "Sun Tzu's Art of War", and Ji Mingzhu prefers "Red Building" and "West Chamber". When asked about Xie Zhao, Xie Zhao shook her head with a smile and said that she did not particularly like that type.
When asked by Ji Mingzhu again, Xie Zhaocai smiled and said, "I like "Water Margin", "Three Kingdoms" and "Red Building". Generally, I like such books, except for the characters in the books, but books like "The Art of War" are generally read as textbooks."
"Sister-in-law, what you said is that except for the characters, is it what I think?" Ji Mingzhu looked at Xie Zhao in shock and asked. She never knew there was anything else to say.
Xie Zhao smiled and said, "It's not that I hate it, but I can't like it. The characters in the book have their own advantages and naturally have their own shortcomings. This book is normal, but the characters I have created are not what I like to appreciate, but their writing styles are very good, just for personal preference."
