Chapter 131
at the same time, an xiaowan received a call from xia duo before she could be chased away.
She had lost contact with Xia duo for a long time. She had sent Xia duo hundreds of WeChat messages, but she had not received a reply. when she suddenly received a call, she almost immediately jumped up.
“duoduo!” before an xiaowan could finish her sentence, xia duo interrupted her with a trembling voice.
Wanwan, please help me. xia duo’s voice sounded like she was crying. ” tomorrow is old master ye’s birthday banquet. all the madams have to make a dish for old master ye, but my hand is injured now. i definitely can’t make it tomorrow. ”
if it was a normal young madam, she could naturally say that her hand was injured and not cook this dish. of course, old master ye would not notice such a small matter. However, the Xia family had placed all their hopes on her, and they could not afford to make any mistakes!
they still wanted to use this opportunity to curry favor with old master ye. if xia duo told them about her injury, they would probably be in a bad mood.
“no problem, i’ll help you.” an xiaowan didn’t wait for xia duo to speak and agreed first.
Xia duo was the sixth daughter of a small family with five older sisters above her. the xia family had always wanted a boy, but they could not give birth to one. by the time she was born, the xia family was already filled with despair. She had been neglected since she was a child. Her parents didn’t care about her and thought she was redundant. Her sisters even schemed against her and bullied her.
That was why she had developed this gentle and easily bullied character.
in the xia family, every daughter was a sword that could be used. if it was not sharp enough, it could be discarded at any time.
“Thank you, Wanwan Wanwan, Wanwan. I really don’t know what to do.” xia duo didn’t have any ideas in the first place. when something happened, she didn’t dare to tell anyone because no matter who she told, they would be taught a lesson and no one would feel bad for her.
“you don’t need to thank me.” ” but my cooking skills aren’t that good, ” an xiaoyao said. ” i can only try my best to make sure you don’t make a fool of yourself. ”
Xia duo nodded her head hard. She was so touched that tears welled up in her eyes.
after hanging up the phone, an xiaowan drove to su shan’s house. the two of them studied recipes until very late.
old master ye had a distinguished status and loved flowers and food, so this birthday banquet was very exquisite and elegant. every place revealed the style that the old man liked, and all kinds of flowers and plants were everywhere.
xia duo needed to cook, so she arrived early. she quietly brought an xiaowan into the banquet hall’s kitchen.
Outside the banquet hall, a Lincoln Stretch Limousine was parked at the entrance.
ye qingqing, who had arrived early, helped old master huo out of the car, followed by his father, huo qilin, mrs. huo, and huo shen.
ye qingqing’s mouth was extremely sweet. as soon as she got out of the car, she greeted everyone one by one. her delicate little face was full of smiles. ” the epiphyllum that grandpa has been taking care of for a long time is about to bloom. i’ve been waiting for you all to come and see it~”
mrs. huo and huo qilin laughed and continued to talk. after walking for a while, they suddenly realized that huo shen was still standing in the same place, looking in a certain direction with deep eyes.
“shen ‘er, what’s wrong?” Mrs. Huo raised her eyebrows and followed his gaze, but she saw nothing.
Huo Shen retracted his gaze and followed behind her. He said lightly, “It’s nothing,”
Although a figure had just flashed by, it was an Xiaowan. He would not mistake her.
Why did she come here?
an xiaowan’s name was not on the invitation list for today.
This was old master ye’s birthday banquet. She didn’t have an invitation and still dared to sneak in. Did she want to die?
Huo Shen’s thin lips lifted slightly. As he reached out to adjust his tie, he turned his head and whispered to assistant Luo, ” “Follow them.”
