Chapter 23 It feels like Dahua is scolding people
Soon, the day of the banquet arrived. Old Mrs. Wen came to Jia Luo's room early, holding an exquisite dress in her hands and with a smile on her face.
"Lolo, come and try on this dress. Grandma prepared it especially for you!"
Carol jumped out of bed, her eyes lit up the moment she saw the dress.
The dress is light blue, with delicate patterns embroidered on the hem and tiny pearls inlaid on the neckline. It is elegant and lively like a girl.
"Wow, it's so delicious!"
"Lolo, come here, let grandma braid your hair. When you wear it later, you will look like a little princess!"
Old Mrs. Wen tied Carol's hair, put a crystal crown on her, and then helped her put on her dress. Old Mrs. Wen nodded with satisfaction.
Jialuo turned around in front of the mirror, and the hem of her skirt swayed gently, making a rustling sound: "Wow, grandma, Lolo has turned into a little princess!"
Old Madam Wen gently hugged Jialuo: "Our Luoluo is originally a little princess!"
"Let me see if our little princess has changed her clothes?" Wen Yan walked in from outside. "Wow, whose little fairy is this? She is so beautiful!"
Jia Luo was amused and laughed out loud.
"Come on, big brother will take you downstairs!" Then he carried Jialuo to the door and said, "Grandma, I'll take Luoluo downstairs first!"
"Lolo, Daddy is taking you...what are you guys going to do?"
"Dad, big brother said to take me downstairs?" Jialuo said in a baby voice.
Wen Lingyue took Jialuo from Wen Yan's arms and glared at him.
"Come on, Dad will take you downstairs. There are lots of delicious food and a huge cake!"
As he said that, he carried Jia Luo and walked down without even looking at Wen Yan. Wen Yan touched his nose and walked down as well.
Old Mrs. Wen looked at the two of them and smiled.
Jia Luo was led by Wen Lingyue and walked down the stairs slowly. Her steps were light and graceful, and every movement revealed confidence. Her hair was carefully tied up, and a few strands of hair hung by her ears, adding a bit of playfulness.
Jia Luo and Wen Lingyue walked down slowly, and the guests below the stairs raised their heads one after another, with a hint of surprise in their eyes, their gazes fixed on Jia Luo.
Low sighs and whispers spread among the crowd, but Jia Luo seemed unaffected. Her eyes were clear and she greeted every glance with a smile.
Wen Lingyue led Jialuo to the center of the banquet, his voice loud and powerful.
"Welcome everyone, thank you for attending my daughter's welcoming party. This is my little daughter, Wen Jialuo." There was a hint of gratitude in his voice.
Jia Luo kept smiling and looking at everyone, without any shyness.
With Wen Lingyue's opening remarks, the banquet officially began.
The band began to play, and the melodious music echoed in the air, adding an elegant atmosphere to the banquet.
The guests were dressed in gorgeous dresses, their faces were filled with smiles, and they were chatting with each other. The atmosphere was warm and pleasant.
But Jia Luo felt a strong gaze staring at her. She looked in the direction of the gaze, but all she saw was a noisy crowd. She couldn't tell who it was.
She frowned slightly, but quickly regained her composure.
Wen Lingyue noticed her movements and asked softly, "Lolo, what's wrong?"
"It's ok, Dad, can I go play?"
Wen Lingyue gently touched her head and said lovingly, "Go, let your seventh brother go with you!"
Jia Luo nodded and ran away.
On the other side, Mrs. Lin handed an exquisite gift box to Lin Lan, touched her hair and said, "Go, Lan Lan, give this gift to Wen Jialuo, and then be good friends with her, okay!"
The little girl named Lanlan said with a reluctant look on her face and pouted: "Mom, I don't want to be friends with her, and I don't want to give this bracelet to her!"
Mrs. Lin's face darkened, but she soon regained her gentle smile.
"Lanlan, be obedient. Tomorrow, Mom will buy you a bracelet that's even prettier than this one, okay?"
"Okay then! Remember to buy it for me tomorrow!" Lin Lan took the gift box and walked towards Jia Luo.
He walked up to Jialuo and said with a smile: "Sister Jialuo, my name is Lin Lan, you can call me Lan Lan. This is a gift from me to you. Can we be friends?"
Jia Luo looked at the little girl in front of her and felt that she looked very familiar for some reason, but she was sure that she had never seen her before.
But what surprised her most was that she couldn't see her face clearly.
Moreover, for some reason, she disliked her very much from the first moment she saw her. This feeling had never appeared before.
But she still smiled and said, "Lanlan, thank you for your gift!"
Several children soon started playing together, and one of them suddenly noticed the big flower basking in the sun in the yard.
He quickly shouted: "Jia Luo, Jia Luo, you have a cat at home!"
"Yes, it's called Dahua, and it's my good friend. It was given to me by my junior brother."
"Come on, let's go play with Dahua. Cats are the most fun!"
Lin Lan shouted, "I don't want to, I don't want to play with cats. My mom said cats are very dirty and have a lot of bacteria on them!"
Hearing this, Jia Luo's face turned cold. Dahua has been with her since she was a child and can be said to be her family.
But before she could say anything, the little girl who had said she wanted to go play with the cat rolled her eyes and said, "Lin Lan, just forget it. What are you talking about cats being dirty? I think you're the dirtiest. You're not destined to be a princess. You're just suffering from princess syndrome!"
When Lin Lan heard this, she cried and said, "You are talking nonsense. My mother said that I am the little princess and cats are dirty, yes, dirty!"
"Yes, yes, you are right. You are a little princess. Just forget it if you don't want to play!" Then she pulled Jia Luo and ran to the yard.
As he walked, he muttered: "Green tea, white lotus..."
Jia Luo heard this and asked curiously, "Sister, what are green tea and white lotus? Can they be drunk?"
The little girl choked and laughed, "Actually I don't know either. I just heard my mom say that she's the kind that cries all the time and is so pitiful. That's it!"
"That Lin Lan is always like that, just ignore her!"
Jialuo looked at her and said with a smile: "Sister, you know a lot. My name is Wen Jialuo, what's your name?"
"My name is Qin Wanqing, I'm 5 years old this year, you can call me Sister Qingqing!"
Jia Luo looked at Qin Wanqing and smiled: "Sister Qingqing, you can call me Luo Luo! Let's go play with Dahua, Dahua is so fun!"
The two little girls held hands and ran to find Dahua.
Walking up to Dahua, Jialuo picked her up and rubbed her head: "Dahua, Dahua, I brought my friends to play with you, are you happy?"
I saw Dahua squinting his eyes, rolling his eyes, and then making a "huffling" sound.
Qin Wanqing was surprised and asked, "Lolo, why do I feel like Dahua is scolding me?"
"Ah?" Jia Luo looked at the big flower and asked in confusion, "What is he cursing at?"
Qin Wanqing put her hands on her waist and rolled her eyes like Dahua: "He was cursing, 'You annoying guy, don't disturb me from sleeping!'"
Jia Luo was amused by Qin Wanqing's expression. She patted Dahua's head and said, "Lazy cat, hurry up and play with me. Don't sleep any more. You have been sleeping all the time since you came down the mountain. You have gained weight."
Qin Wanqing watched the interaction between Jialuo and Dahua, with a hint of envy in her eyes.
She reached out her hand and carefully touched Dahua's back: "Dahua, hello, I'm Qingqing, we'll be friends from now on."
Dahua rubbed Qin Wanqing's hand gently with her head and then continued to close her eyes, letting out a satisfied sound.
"Wow, Lolo, did you see that? Dahua is rubbing against me, she likes me!" Qin Wanqing shouted in surprise.
Jia Luo looked at Qin Wanqing's happy expression and said helplessly: "Yes, yes, Dahua likes you!"
Dahua let the two men rub her without resisting, but instead let out a comfortable sound.
Seeing that they were having a lot of fun, Lin Lan remembered what his mother had said and walked over.
