Chapter 628: At the Table
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lu Zhen’s grandfather was already sitting at the top of the table. When he saw
Lu Zhen and Jiang Kai, he nodded slightly. “Come and sit beside me.”
In China’s traditional culture, the two seats facing the door at the dining table were the most honorable. Lu Zhen and Jiang Kai did not dare to sit beside their grandfather, so they sat on the other side.
Jiang Kai wanted to sit next to his grandfather, but the old man asked him to get up. “Let your sister sit beside me. I get annoyed when I see you.”
Jiang Kai was speechless for a moment and said unhappily, “Grandpa, you can be biased, but can you not be so obvious?!”
Jiang Kai’s words amused a few elders. Someone teased, “Xiao Kai, your sister has just returned. Your grandfather naturally wants to sit closer to her. Don’t feel too aggrieved.”
“Who asked the Old Master to be so strict with Xiao Kai since he was young? Now that his sister is back and the Old Master is biased, Xiao Kai naturally feels aggrieved.”
When the old man heard this, he snorted. “What are you aggrieved about? What’s there to be aggrieved about? Are you not allowed to eat at the table, or are you not allowed to pick up your chopsticks? Sit properly!’
His last sentence was so loud that Jiang Kai straightened his back and sat down obediently.
Lu Zhen sat beside her grandfather nervously. She vaguely felt that the other elders in the family were looking at her more politely. It seemed that her grandfather still valued her very much. He had specially asked her to sit beside him to express his attitude.
Lu Zhen had been lost since she was young. Her mother had passed away, and her father had never cared about family matters. She had just returned, so perhaps some relatives with other thoughts would look down on her. As soon as Jiang Ce expressed his stance, those people would naturally put away their thoughts.
Lu Zhen looked at the relatives with friendly smiles and naturally did not think that everyone had absolute goodwill towards her.
She swept her gaze around and saw He Hong sitting beside Jiang Fei. He Hong was leaning her head slightly towards Jiang Fei, as if she was sharing something interesting with Jiang Fei. She smiled as she spoke.
