Chapter 871: Bai Jianping Is Not Presentable (12)

Malanhua was combing her hair in the bedroom. She had changed three hairstyles. Xiaobai and Xier, two little naive kids, watched and asked curious questions. They all thought it was very rare.

Tan Jiner often changed Xier's hairstyle. She was so meticulous about life. When she had time, she would check online which hairstyle was the cutest for children, and then tie Xier's hair in different ways.

However, Tan Xier had never seen anyone like Malanhua change three hairstyles in one morning.

Bai Jianping was watching TV in the living room. He curled his lips and whispered that the old tree was sprouting new buds.

"Uncle, what are you talking about?" Xiaobai was very alert. He immediately smelled the fishy smell and came up.

Bai Jianping told her to go away in a bad mood and not to wait here and cause trouble to his uncle.

"What time is it now, Xiaobai!"

Malanhua's voice came from the room.

Xiaobai came to the clock hanging on the wall and looked at it. He and Xier had a disagreement. The two disagreed. One thought it was half past nine and the other thought it was half past ten.

Malanhua knew it was half past nine when she heard it.

Zhang Tan asked them to meet at a restaurant on West Chang'an Street at half past ten, chat for an hour, and then eat.

"It's time to leave," Malanhua said.

Bai Jianping: "I'm just waiting for you."

He immediately glared at Xiaobai, who was almost sticking to his face, and scolded: "What are you looking at!"

"Hahaha~~~~"

Xiaobai laughed, touched his little chin and lips, and said: "Uncle, where is your beard?"

Bai Jianping: "You know the answer but you still ask, didn't you see me shaving?"

"Hahaha~~~~ Uncle shaved, he shaved~~~"

This silly kid was jumping around at home, and Xier was also silly, jumping around with him.

Malanhua urged them to leave.

After waving goodbye to Xier, the three of them went downstairs and left.

Xier stood at the entrance of the corridor and watched them leave, envious, and turned around and jumped home.

Tan Jiner was sewing dolls. Seeing her come back hopping, she asked, "Didn't you play with Xiaobai?"

Xier came to her side, stuck to her sister, and said warmly, "Xiaobai and his aunt and uncle left. They went to see Boss Zhang."

Tan Jiner said, "I'll take you to the park after I finish sewing the dolls."

"Sister, why don't we have an uncle and aunt? Uncle and aunt are so fun."

"..."

Bai Jianping and the other two were walking in the alley to the Little Red Horse. Malanhua was telling Bai Jianping some precautions to avoid embarrassing him on the spot.

Bai Jianping kept it in his heart and complained that this was looking down on him. He was a presentable person and had shaken hands with Lao Qin! Everyone was familiar with him.

Malanhua ignored his words and continued to remind him, saying, "Drink less water, otherwise you'll always go to the bathroom."

"..."Bai Jianping protested weakly, "Why do I always go to the bathroom?"

Malanhua: "Don't you know you have kidney deficiency?"

Bai Jianping: "..."

He quickly glanced at the idiot, who was focusing on his shadow and stepping on it, the little fool.

Luckily, fortunately.

Bai Jianping retorted that he drank too much water, so he went to the bathroom more often, and it had nothing to do with kidney deficiency.

"Bai Jianping~~~" Malanhua suddenly shouted.

Bai Jianping: "Ah?"

"Not you." Malanhua pointed to a dog in front and said, "I'm calling that dog."

Bai Jianping: "..."

What made him even more angry was that the dog actually came up to him with its tail wagging. This was embarrassing. Could it really be called "Bai Jianping"?

"Idiot, your dog is here." Malanhua introduced her dog to Xiaobai with a sly smile.

Xiaobai looked around, feeling extremely guilty. She didn't respond at all, drove the dog away, pretended not to know him, and hurried to Xiaohongma.

In the yard, Zhang Tan, Teacher Jiang, and Lao Li were drinking tea and chatting under the shadow of the tree. Xiaobai shouted for Boss Zhang and Grandma and ran in.

"Don't move, Xiaobai, let me see."

Zhang Tan caught Xiaobai, looked at her face carefully, and said, "It's over, Xiaobai, why do you have dark circles under your eyes? Bags under your eyes, too, what's wrong? Didn't you sleep at night?"

Xiaobai sighed, "Oh, I don't know what's going on."

She pointed at Bai Jianping and Malanhua who were coming over, saying that they were so loud at night that she couldn't sleep... blah blah.

Lao Li's face changed, and he winked and looked frivolous.

Zhang Tan coughed, got up and said he would go get ready and come down soon. At the same time, he told Xiaobai to stay at Xiaohongma tonight and not to leave.

The group set out for the restaurant. Although the distance was not far, it would take more than ten minutes to walk there, so Zhang Tan drove the car. The car was big and had more than enough space for everyone.

"Don't shiver." Malanhua said.

"Who shivered?" Bai Jianping responded immediately.

The sun was shining brightly today and it was a little hot. When the group arrived at the restaurant, they arrived ten minutes earlier than scheduled, but when they opened the door of the private room, they found that someone was already inside. Qin Huifang had arrived.

"Xiaobai~~~ my child!"

A cheerful voice sounded, and Xiaobai looked closely and saw that it was Wang Xiaoyu, the unlucky guy.

Qin Huifang and Zhang Mingxue were also sitting in the room. When Zhang Tan and others entered the door, they stood up.

Zhang Tan introduced everyone, and Qin Huifang came forward to help Teacher Jiang sit down, talking and laughing.

Qin Huifang called Zhang Mingxue and Wang Xiaoyu to come forward and introduce the two children to Teacher Jiang.

The two obediently called out "Grandma Jiang" and left.

Malanhua was smiling and kind, no longer looking like a hot girl. She happened to be sitting next to Wang Xiaoyu, looked at him, and kindly praised him for being so handsome.

Wang Xiaoyu was so excited when he heard it, and said modestly that he looked like his mother, and his mother was so beautiful...

Zhang Mingxue immediately broke the show, saying that his eyes were so small, like peas, how could he look like his mother.

Wang Xiaoyu got up and went to play with Xiaobai.

Bai Jianping also sat down, serious.

He was a person who couldn't stand up. When he was in such an occasion, it was like someone had cut off his hands and feet and couldn't be himself.

He recognized Qin Huifang. Before coming, he called her "Old Qin". Now when they met, he called her "Sister Qin".

Malanhua: "..."

She didn't say anything. Qin Huifang was indeed older than her and Bai Jianping, so it was reasonable to call her Sister Qin.

However, although Qin Huifang was older than them, she looked younger than them! So it always felt a bit strange.

Especially Bai Jianping, who had worked on the construction site for a long time, had dark skin and looked like an old farmer. Judging from his appearance, he was about ten years older than his actual age.

When he called Qin Huifang Sister Qin, Qin Huifang was obviously stunned.

"Where is my uncle?" Zhang Tan asked. He didn't see Zhang Hui in the box. Zhang Hui said he would come.

Zhang Mingxue said he went to order food.

Zhang Tan understood it as soon as he heard it, and got up and walked out, and found Zhang Hui in the kitchen.

The kitchen was quite clean, but it was inevitably full of smoke. Zhang Hui rolled up his sleeves and was picking fish.

Zhang Tan came forward and picked fish with him, saying, "This one is pretty good, moderate in size, lively and strong."

Zhang Hui glanced at him, picked it up, handed it to the chef beside him, and said that he would use this catfish and braise it, and even nagging the kitchen to tell him the key points of braising.

Zhang Tan persuaded him to leave, and the chef was almost unable to hold back and his face was almost black.

If he didn't know that the guests who came here were all of status, the chef might really get angry, and he had never seen a guest teach the chef how to cook.

Zhang Tan was amused. Zhang Hui liked to eat braised catfish. He was like a glutton in the kitchen. How could people tell that he was an official.

"Are all here?" Zhang Hui asked.

"Just arrived, wash your hands."

The two washed their hands and returned to the box.

Qin Huifang introduced Zhang Hui to Teacher Jiang and others as soon as possible.

Before coming, Zhang Tan briefly introduced Zhang Hui to Teacher Jiang and others, saying that he was also a civil servant, and didn't say much else.

So at this moment, no one thought Zhang would be anything special. He looked like a middle-aged man. I heard that he just went to the kitchen to order food. Maybe he was a cook.

Malanhua said with a smile that her family's Lao Bai was in charge of the meals for hundreds of people in the crew. He also cooked at home. He was good at Sichuan cuisine, especially Bobo chicken.

"Right, Lao Bai."

Malanhua looked at Bai Jianping. Seeing that Bai Jianping had been silent and out of place, she took the initiative to bring the topic to him.

Bai Jianping: ((;;)))

"Yes, right~~... Gurgle~~"

He was swallowing saliva.
