The banquet at the Xiao Mansion was scheduled for six o'clock in the afternoon. Yinli did not interfere in anything that happened during this period. Fortunately, Wang Xinmei did not disappoint anyone.
The huge living room is decorated with flowers and silk ribbons, and it is exquisite and complex yet has a hint of freshness. The red wine, champagne, various desserts, cold dishes, and drinks on the table are neatly arranged and full, which is pleasing to the eye just by looking at it.
Yin Li couldn't help but take a dessert and put it in her mouth. It was sweet, refreshing, and very delicious. She was about to take another one, but Yu Ma stopped her hand and scolded her, "Miss, you are wearing a dress, you can't eat too much, otherwise your belly will swell up and make people laugh at you."
"Yu Ma, if you don't eat now, you won't have anything to eat later." Yin Li pouted unhappily. In the past, she attended banquets just to eat.
Yu Ma was indifferent to Yin Li's cuteness. Wang Xinmei found it funny and said, "I made these cakes myself. If you want to eat them, I will make them for you in different ways every day after this is over."
Yin Li's eyes lit up and he said hurriedly, "You said it, don't go back on your word."
"I won't regret what I said."
Yu Ma looked at Yin Li and sighed, saying distressedly: "Oh my, you are so pitiful. I don't know what kind of suffering you have endured in the Xu family. You are not even given enough food to eat."
"puff--"
Xiao Dipeng couldn't help laughing out loud, "Host, if Yu Ma knew that you are a big eater, would her jaw drop?"
If Yin Lixin can't hit you, he will slap you to death.
When Xiao Dipeng heard Yin Li's idea, he trembled instantly and dared not say anything or ask anything.
Faced with Yu Ma's heartache, Yin Li felt a little guilty.
Haha, let the Xu family take the blame.
At this moment, Xiao Yinyuan came in from outside.
As soon as Yin Li saw him, he smiled and called out, "Brother."
As she said this, she lifted her skirt and trotted towards him.
Seeing this, Xiao Yinyuan was terrified, fearing that she would trip and fall, so he stepped forward to support her, and could not help but blame her: "You are so grown up, but you still act like a child. Don't cry if you fall."
"That's nothing. I can even go up to the sky and down to the earth."
Xiao Yinyuan was amused and was about to say something when she noticed a strange face in the house and asked, "Has the party started yet?"
Yin Li didn't say anything, and Yu Ma smiled and replied, "This is Miss Xinmei, her friend. The food she cooks is especially to Miss's taste. Today's banquet was also organized by Miss Xinmei."
"Oh?" Xiao Yinyuan was a little surprised, and looked at Wang Xinmei with a scrutinizing look, "Miss Wang is so powerful? I heard that you don't seem to get along with my Yinli?"
Although Xiao Yinyuan was not at home, his servants reported to him what happened to Yinli today, one of which was the conflict with Wang Xinmei in the clothing shop.
"Brother Xiao, it was all misunderstanding before." Wang Xinmei murmured. Her red face turned pale in an instant. She lowered her head and said nothing more.
Yin Li didn't want Wang Xinmei to leave unhappy, so he quickly helped, "Brother, there was a misunderstanding between Xinmei and me before, but it has been resolved now. What's more, Xinmei's cooking skills are really amazing. If you eat it, your taste buds will definitely be conquered~"
Xiao Yinyuan's eyes moved away from Wang Xinmei and looked at Yinli tenderly: "Since you like it, keep it."
Wang Xinmei breathed a sigh of relief. Xiao Yinli's elder brother had such a terrifying aura. His gaze just now was so overwhelming that people were almost unable to breathe.
"Brother, it's almost time. Go upstairs and change your clothes. We'll welcome the guests together later." Yin Li couldn't help but urge Xiao Yinyuan when he saw the clothes he was wearing.
If the banquet doesn't start, the food can't be eaten.
It’s too painful to just look at it but not eat it.
Xiao Yinyuan gently scratched Yinli's nose and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll go right away, big brother."
Wang Xinmei looked at Yinli and his sister with envy, wishing she could have a brother like Brother Xiao.
Just thinking of her younger brothers and sisters at home, Wang Xinmei suddenly felt a headache.
The Wang family fell into poverty, and her younger brothers and sisters had grown up and needed money for marriage, so Wang Xinmei's father set his sights on her.
He wanted to marry Wang Xinmei to an old man in his seventies in exchange for a dowry.
Wang Xinmei was a stubborn girl. That night, she took her private money and came to Kyoto to seek refuge with Lu Changjun.
Oh, forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore. The more I think about it, the more upset I get. I’d better try to curry favor with Yinli. At least my cousin will give me a way out.
Around five o'clock, people attending the banquet arrived one after another. Most of them were people Yinli didn't know, so she was responsible for putting on a fake smile and eating secretly from time to time. Xiao Yinyuan was responsible for the greetings, and the whole banquet ended successfully.
…
The next day's newspaper headlines were all about the hot topics of the banquet, with titles like "Miss Xiao is back in action" and "The ex-wife of Mr. Xu San is stunningly beautiful." The more shocking the headlines became, the more eye-catching they became.
The host held the newspaper that said she was stunningly beautiful and read it over and over again.
In the past, she became famous in the entertainment industry by doing some tricks. No one praised her for her good looks, not even her fans. Oh, it's so hard for her~
After reading the newspaper, Xiao Yinyuan nodded with satisfaction: "It's well written."
"I think so too." Yin Li nodded in agreement, "It would be even better if all the newspapers could praise my good looks~"
Xiao Yinyuan felt amused when she saw the newspapers in Yinli's hands that had headlines about her appearance.
For some reason, he always felt that his little sister had become more lively, loved to eat, was extremely narcissistic, and loved to hear nice words.
"Okay, big brother will tell the newspaper company about it. You can go shopping on the street these few days and buy whatever you want. You must wash away the bad impression that people have of you."
"Brother, you are so nice." Yin Li held his face.
It's comfortable to hug a thigh, she just eats and eats~
Xiao Yinyuan didn't say anything, but raised his hand and touched Yinli's head, his eyes were gentle, as if he wanted to drown the person.
…
"Miss, you are going to school tomorrow. Can I bring you the altered school uniform to try on?" Yu Ma asked.
Miss Yinli was still too thin, and the small school uniform was too big for her, so the uniform was altered again.
I must ask Miss Xinmei to make more delicious food for Miss Yinli, Yu Ma thought to herself.
"good."
The school uniforms during the Republic of China period were also very distinctive. They were not very beautiful, but they were very contemporary. Therefore, they were still very rare for Yinli.
There was nothing wrong with the new school uniform. Yinli admired herself in it for a while, then felt sleepy, so she washed up and went to bed.
…
Early the next morning.
After breakfast, Yinli took a car to Kyoto College.
Kyoto College is not far from Xiao Mansion, only a fifteen-minute drive.
