Ch 208: Family Banquet

“Haha, it’s good that you know each other! We’ll be seeing each other often, so we still need to get along well!”, Zhou Yanhua took over and said with a smile.

“Alright, you little ones go out and play! I want to talk to Yanhua for a while,” Bai Tianye said noncommittally.

“We’ll take our leave!”, Bai Jintong took the lead to salute and said, and Hua Kong also saluted.

“Father!”

“Uncle Zhou!”, Bai Jinzhu gave a blessing and walked to Hua Kong’s side.

“Lord Bai!”

“Father!”, Zhou Zhizheng and Zhou Zhiyi also cupped their fists in salute.

“Okay!”, Bai Tianye waved his hand.

Everyone came out of the study. Bai Jinzhu pulled Hua Kong, wanting to leave quickly. Hua Kong looked back at Bai Jintong, but Bai Jintong waved his hand, indicating that he didn’t need to worry about himself. Hua Kong didn’t think much about it and quickly left Bai Tianye’s study with Bai Jinzhu.

“Miss Jinzhu!”

“Sister Jinzhu!”

Along the way, people kept greeting Bai Jinzhu, but Bai Jinzhu didn’t have her usual gentle politeness. She ignored those people and only focused on walking. Hua Kong was quickly dragged by Bai Jinzhu to a small courtyard.

“Miss is back!”, a Maid was dozing off on the corridor of the small courtyard. Suddenly, she noticed the impetuous Bai Jinzhu Huakong and jumped up in fright.

“Go away!”, Bai Jinzhu shouted.

“Yes! Miss!”, the Maid lowered her head and ran out.

“Pa!”, Bai Jinzhu pushed open the door of the bedroom, pulled Hua Kong in, and then slammed it shut.

“Zhu Zhu!”, Hua Kong was a little worried.

“Don’t talk! Hurry!”, Bai Jinzhu said eagerly, while starting to move.

“Okay! Okay!”, Hua Kong became a little flustered and busy.

The two frolicked in the small courtyard for more than an hour before Bai Jinzhu finally lay down on the bed contentedly.

“Xiao Kong! Come here!”, Bai Jinzhu beckoned.

“Okay!”, Hua Kong also came to the bedside.

“Lie here!”, Bai Jinzhu patted the spot next to her.

“Okay!”, Hua Kong lay down according to Bai Jinzhu’s request, and Bai Jinzhu turned over and lay on top of Hua Kong.

“Operate!”, Bai Jinzhu said again.

“Okay!”, Hua Kong then operated according to Bai Jinzhu’s request.

“Hmm… Xiao Kong is still more obedient!”, Bai Jinzhu murmured, lying on Hua Kong’s chest.

“Thank you?”, Hua Kong was a little confused.

“Xiao Kong saw that Zhou Zhizheng, are you jealous?”, Bai Jinzhu was silent for a while, then suddenly said.

“Jeal… jealous!”, Hua Kong thought for a while and said.

“Hmph! You’re not being sincere!”, Bai Jinzhu patted Hua Kong’s chest.

“Um… Zhu Zhu, I have come all the way, and I think I have never let anyone down! I hope Zhu Zhu understands!”, Hua Kong didn’t know what to say.

“You brat! I’m just teasing you!”, Bai Jinzhu raised her head and said.

“I like Zhu Zhu!”, after holding it in for a long time, Hua Kong said another sentence.

“Haha! Little Thief! I am Sister Muxin’s person, how dare you not like me?”, Bai Jinzhu laughed.

“Uh…”, Hua Kong was even more confused now.

“Miss! Lord told you to go to the Evening Glow Hall for a banquet quickly!”, the Maid’s call came from outside the door after the two lay on the bed and chatted for a while.

“Got it!”, Bai Jinzhu responded.

“Hurry up and take it out! Little Thief!”, Bai Jinzhu twisted her body and teased.

“Okay! Okay!”, Hua Kong was about to operate.

“Hmph! You do whatever I tell you to do! You don’t cherish me!”, Bai Jinzhu suddenly changed her face and said.

“Ah! I didn’t!”, Hua Kong was stunned.

“Hmph! I’m sad! You have to coax me!”, Bai Jinzhu said pretentiously.

“How should I coax you?”, Hua Kong knew that Bai Jinzhu already had an idea.

“Of course, you have to coax me with your mouth! You Smelly Little Thief!”, Bai Jinzhu took the initiative to release Hua Kong, but leaned against the bedside.

“Okay! Okay!”, Hua Kong immediately understood Bai Jinzhu’s thoughts and lowered his head.

“Don’t be lazy!”, Bai Jinzhu instructed.

“Okay! Sister Zhu Zhu! Xiao Kong will listen to you!”, Hua Kong lowered his head.

“Hmm… that’s more like it!”, Bai Jinzhu murmured.

…

“Miss! Hurry up and go to the Evening Glow Hall! Lord is getting impatient!”, the Maid’s call rang out again outside the door.

“Okay! Impat… what! I’m ta… taking a bath!”, Bai Jinzhu shouted loudly, but as Hua Kong busied himself, she couldn’t muster any strength.

“Oh! Okay!”, the Maid had no choice but to leave.

“Zhu Zhu, why don’t we go to the banquet first?”, Hua Kong raised his head and said.

“Why are you so timid?”, Bai Jinzhu said unhappily, and then directed Hua Kong to continue operating.

…

“Miss… Lord is angry! Hurry up and go!”, the little Maid’s voice already had a sob in it.

“Hmph!”, Bai Jinzhu was helpless, patted Hua Kong’s head, and signaled Hua Kong to stop.

“Let’s go! Really! It’s just a meal!”, Bai Jinzhu said dissatisfied, got out of bed, and took out clothes from the Storage Bracelet.

“Okay!”, Hua Kong quickly took out new clothes and began to dress.

“Let’s go!”, Bai Jinzhu was about to go out after putting on her clothes.

“Zhu Zhu! Your hair is messy! Your makeup is smudged!”, Hua Kong reminded.

“Ah! It’s really annoying!”, Bai Jinzhu walked to the mirror, directly loosened her hair, then simply combed it twice and put it up, and directly wiped off the makeup on her face.

“Is it okay now!?”, Hua Kong was a little shocked. Bai Jinzhu wouldn’t go out before without tidying herself up.

“Father is urging me, so let’s just leave it like this!”, Bai Jinzhu said indifferently.

“Alright!”, Hua Kong responded.

The two simply tidied up and walked out of the small courtyard, following the Maid to the side hall of the City Lord’s Mansion where guests were entertained. At this time, Bai Tianye, Bai Jinran, Bai Jinhe, Bai Jinmiao, Bai Jinwen, Bai Jinhan, Bai Jintong, Zhou Yanhua, Zhou Zhizheng, and Zhou Zhiyi were talking in the hall, and the dishes and drinks on the table were already full.

“You girl! How can you be so presumptuous!”, seeing Hua Kong Bai Jinzhu come in, Bai Tianye said a little angrily.

“Father! Don’t be angry! People were just taking a bath! Look, I didn’t even put on makeup!”, Bai Jinzhu quickly walked over and hugged Bai Tianye, acting coquettishly.

“Hmph!”, what kind of strength did Bai Tianye have? How could he not see what Bai Jinzhu was doing just now, but he didn’t expose it.

“I miss Father and Mother so much! Where’s Mother?”, Bai Jinzhu asked.

“You still know about me and your Mother?”, Bai Tianye’s tone softened a lot, but what he said was still a little unkind.

“Father, don’t be angry! Zhu Zhu is wrong! But it’s all because Xiao Kong is pestering me all day long, and I can’t get away!”, Bai Jinzhu pretended to be aggrieved.

“Alright! Stop pretending! Hurry up and sit down!”, Bai Tianye was a little speechless, but seeing Bai Jinzhu so cheerful, his mood was still much better.

“Thank you, Father!”, Bai Jinzhu kissed Bai Tianye on the face, then ran to Hua Kong’s side and pulled Hua Kong to sit down on the empty seat next to Bai Tianye.

“Yanhua, don’t mind, this girl was just taking a bath!”, Bai Tianye looked at Zhou Yanhua and said.

“It’s okay! It’s okay! Women! They’re all like this!”, of course Zhou Yanhua wouldn’t make a fool of himself, so he followed Bai Tianye’s lead.

“Alright! Alright! Let’s start!”, Bai Tianye waved his hand and said.

“Hey… Xiao Zhu, how is this kid?”, Bai Jinhan didn’t pick up his chopsticks, but instead winked at Bai Jinzhu and looked at Hua Kong.

“How is what!?”, Bai Jinzhu didn’t like these brothers very much, and her tone was unkind.

“Of course, it’s the work!”, Bai Jinran said in a low voice.

“Cough…”, everyone was shocked when they heard Bai Jinran’s words.

“You! Father…”, although Bai Jinran’s voice was small, Bai Jinzhu still heard it, and Bai Jinzhu’s face immediately turned red.

“Jinran! Do you want to die? So frivolous! She is your sister!”, Bai Tianye said angrily.

“Father! I was wrong! I was wrong!”, seeing his old man angry, Bai Jinran immediately begged.

“Brother Yanhua, I’m sorry, these kids are really useless!”, Bai Tianye said very embarrassedly.

“It’s okay! It’s okay!”, Zhou Yanhua said it was okay, but his face had already turned black. The Zhou Zhizheng Zhou Zhiyi next to him lowered their heads even more, and no one could see their faces.

“Father! Uncle Yanhua! Eat! Eat! This steamed Hundred Flower Fish is so delicious!”, seeing that the two elders were angry, Bai Jinwen, who was a little more sensible among these five treasures, quickly greeted them.

“Okay! Okay!”, under Bai Jinwen’s easing, the atmosphere at the scene finally improved a little. Everyone stopped talking and began to eat the dishes quietly.

But in occasions where the Bai Family Five Tigers are present, how can it be peaceful? After only about an incense stick of time, Bai Jinran came out to provoke again: “You two kids! Eat more! You won’t have a chance to eat such good dishes in the future!”

“Here!”, Bai Jinran picked up a fish tail and walked to Bai Jintong, putting the fish tail into Bai Jintong’s plate.

“Kid! This is a good thing!”, Bai Jinran picked up the fish head again and put it into Hua Kong’s bowl.

“Thank you, Big Brother Bai!”, Bai Jintong glanced at Hua Kong, calmly took out a box from the Storage Bracelet, put the fish tail in it, and put it away.

“Thank you, Big Brother!”, Hua Kong followed suit, took out a box and put the fish head away.

“You… haha…”, when the Bai Family Five Brothers saw the two’s reaction, they pointed at the two and laughed loudly.

“Father… they’re going too far!”, seeing the five people’s actions, Bai Jinzhu said angrily.

“Jinran! If you dare to act rashly again! This time I will definitely make you eat the board!”, Bai Tianye said seriously.

“Father! We were wrong! We were wrong!”, Bai Jinran quickly apologized with a smile.

“You two kids! It’s Big Brother’s fault!”, Bai Jinran picked up his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, saying to Hua Kong Bai Jintong.

“It’s okay!”, Bai Jintong picked up his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, saying indifferently.

“It’s okay!”, Hua Kong followed suit, just as calmly.

“Alright! Let’s eat!”, Bai Tianye greeted, looking at Zhou Yanhua with some apology.

“Okay! Okay! The food is very delicious!”, Zhou Yanhua said plainly, but there was a strange light flashing in his eyes when he looked at Bai Jintong Hua Kong.
