"She's not, but it might have something to do with it."
Xia Tian knew what Ah Jiu wanted to ask and shook his head directly.
"I'll go talk to her later."
Ah Jiu was searching for her life experience in the fairy world before, but she only found her biological father, Xu Kunlun. Her biological mother was still missing. Today, when she first saw a middle-aged woman who looked similar to herself, her heart naturally went there.
think.
"Who are you talking about?"
Hu Huayu followed the gazes of Xia Xia and Ah Jiu and saw the woman. She was indeed more than 70% similar to Ah Jiu, so he said: "That is the distinguished guest that my second uncle invited to help me. I don't know yet."
What's the background? I'll ask you when I get here."
"Thanks in advance."
Ah Jiu immediately expressed his gratitude.
"Miss Ninth, you're going to break me now."
Hu Huayu said with some embarrassment: "You and Xia Tian have helped me a few times. I have done some small things, so what's the point of thanking you?"
Xia Tian lazily said: "Can you stop talking nonsense and thank you, what's the point?"
"Too."
Hu Huayu nodded.
Just when he was about to say something else, the housekeeper Hu Yiwan suddenly approached quietly and whispered a few words into his ear.
"I have some things to take care of."
Hu Huayu stood up and said apologetically to Xia Tian and Ah Jiu: "Wait for me here for a while. If someone makes things difficult for you, don't give me face. You can do whatever you want."
Ah Jiu felt that what Hu Huayu said was quite interesting, and said lightly: "You'd better pray that there is no such idiot, otherwise you won't be able to control Xia Tian's temper once it gets out."
"Jiu Yatou, it's wrong for you to arrange your husband like this."
Xia Tian emphasized seriously: "I have always convinced people with reason, and I hate violence the most."
Ah Jiu rolled her eyes at Xia Tian: "Aren't you blushing at all when you say this?"
"There's nothing to be ashamed of."
Xia Tian said casually: "What I said is true."
Hu Huayu apologized again, then turned around and left with the butler Hu Yiwan, directly out of the hall.
"Are you the distinguished guests invited by Hu Huayu to help you?"
As soon as Hu Huayu left, a woman who looked a bit sarcastic came over and asked provocatively.
Ah Jiu raised her eyebrows and said calmly: "Who are you?"
"I am his aunt Hu Yingdie."
With a sneer on her face, the mean woman looked up and down at Xia Tian and Ah Jiu, "No matter if you look up or down, or look left or right, you two don't seem to be anything special. I really don't understand why the old woman picked you to be Hu Huayu's assistant.
.”
Ah Jiu was too lazy to argue with this kind of woman, and said casually: "We are just here to eat, and we are not interested in participating in other things."
"Haha, I'm giving up now. I'm really cowardly."
Hu Yingdie sneered, obviously no longer interested in Xia Tian and Ah Jiu, and said with disdain: "Forget it, it's useless for Hu Huayu to invite anyone here anyway, he is not worthy of the position of the head of the family.
You two should get out of here as soon as possible and stop eating and drinking here."
Xia Tian said with some displeasure: "If you're ugly, just hide at home and play with yourself in the mirror. It's your fault if you come out and scare people."
"Who are you calling ugly?"
The mean woman was instantly ignited, staring at Xia Tian and scolding: "Say it again if you dare!"
"If I say it a thousand times, you'll still look ugly."
Xia Tian curled his lips, "And it will grow uglier and uglier. It is completely hopeless and it will die of ugliness sooner or later."
The mean woman flew into a rage and cursed at the man following her: "You are so damn deaf. This guy is scolding me. Why don't you react at all?"
At this time, Ah Jiu was shocked to find that there was someone standing behind this mean woman.
He is still a handsome-looking man, not short in stature, but he is always hunched over, making him look not very tall, and his sense of presence is inexplicably low, so that many people will subconsciously ignore his existence, even if they glance around.
When you arrive, you won't be impressed.
The handsome man sounded a little timid: "Xiaodie, I didn't say anything, so don't..." "Pa!"
Hu Yingdie slapped her backhand and cursed: "What did you call me?"
"Xiaodie, why did you hit me?"
The handsome man covered his face and felt very aggrieved.
"Pah, pah!"
Hu Yingdie directly attacked the man and cursed: "You are such a loser. Your wife was called ugly by others, but you didn't react at all and even spoke for others. Why did I marry such a loser like you!"
"
"Here, there are outsiders here, please save some face for me, okay?"
The handsome man's tone was pleading, and he said pitifully: "Go home and do whatever you want."
"Bah bang bang!"
The only answer he received was a slap that got louder and louder, like a violent storm.
Because Hu Yingdie grabbed the handsome man's chin with one hand and slapped his face wildly with the other.
Ah Jiu couldn't stand it anymore and felt strange at the same time. That man looked tall and tall, so why did Hu Yingdie let Hu Yingdie humiliate him like this in public?
Sure enough, some people couldn't stand it anymore and shouted loudly: "If you want to play tricks, you two can go home and play slowly. Don't embarrass yourself here!"
"It's none of your business if I beat my own husband."
Hu Yingdie scolded him directly: "Second brother, you should take care of yourself."
Hu Huayu's second uncle looked unhappy and scolded in a cold voice: "Today is a family banquet, and there are distinguished guests here. Don't be embarrassed!"
"Mom, I like to embarrass myself, can you control me?"
Hu Yingdie still had the same soft-and-hard attitude, still lecturing her husband: "Let me ask you one last question, are you going to do it?"
The handsome man kept his head lowered and remained silent, neither nodding nor denying.
"What a waste!"
Hu Yingdie was so angry that she gritted her teeth and kicked her husband to the ground: "What use do I need from you? Get out of here!"
The handsome man felt like he was being pardoned. He bowed to Hu Yingdie and ran away quickly. He even almost tripped because he was running so fast, which caused another round of laughter.
"You two, wait for me, this matter is not over yet!"
Hu Yingdie's face turned red, and she couldn't get angry at her husband any more, so she could only point at Xia Tian and Ah Jiu: "I will stare at you to death today."
Ah Jiu felt a little confused and said coldly: "We have never provoked you from the beginning to the end. It was you who came here to scold you."
"Huh, I'm trying to quibble now, it's too late!"
Hu Yingdie spat: "As soon as I saw your face, I felt so angry that sooner or later I was going to scratch it!"
"Do you have a problem with me?"
At this time, the woman who looked 70% similar to Ah Jiu finally spoke up, "Hu Yingdie, you haven't changed. You still only know how to criticize others and use excuses to make excuses. Is there anything you can't say to me directly?
"
Hu Yingdie turned around and faced the woman directly: "Yes, I'm talking about you, bitch, you actually have the nerve to come to my house!"
"Why don't you have the nerve to come?"
The woman's pretty face showed a puzzled look, "The old lady is my godmother. She hosted a family banquet for me, so of course I have to come."
"That's why I hate people like you."
Hu Yingdie said more and more viciously: "You obviously have thoughts about my Hu family's property, but you pretend to be innocent, why do you want to be your godmother? Forget it, the old lady will be deceived by you, I don't understand you yet.
"
The woman nodded: "You just don't understand me, otherwise you wouldn't say such things."
"Qi Yushi, I actually want to ask, is this girl your illegitimate daughter?"
Hu Yingdie pointed at Ah Jiu and speculated maliciously: "I pretend to be a pure saint in front of others and talk about non-marriage. As a result, the children outside have grown up like this."
The woman was a little surprised when she saw Ah Jiu, but she still kept a smile on her face: "If I really have such a beautiful daughter, it is my blessing. Is there anything I can't admit? I'd love it."
"How disgusting!"
Hu Yingdie snorted coldly, not wanting to stay any longer, turned around and left.
The woman walked towards Xia Tian and Ah Jiu and said softly: "Do you mind if I sit here?"
"Don't mind, I just have a few questions to ask you."
Ah Jiu didn't want to beat around the bush and decided to ask straight to the point.
"I guess the question you want to ask is similar to what I want to ask."
The woman smiled and said, "Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Qi Yushi, and I come from the Qi family in Fuliang."
Then he looked at Ah Jiu: "Girl, I see you are very kind and approachable, I don't know what to call you?"
"We look very similar, how can we not be friendly and get close to each other?"
Xia Tian said with a smile.
Ah Jiu hesitated for a moment and decided to test it out by saying her real name: "My name is Xu Xiu'er, my nickname is Ah Jiu, and my father is Xu Kunlun."
"oh."
Qi Yushi nodded, without any special reaction, but suddenly pulled Ah Jiu's hand: "I fell in love with you at first sight, but there are some things that are not convenient to communicate here. Can we find a time to discuss it in detail at the banquet, okay?"
Ah Jiu nodded decisively at this time: "You decide the time and place, I can do it."
"OK."
Qi Yushi smiled and touched Ah Jiu's head, then took out a note from her bag, wrote down her contact information, and handed it to Ah Jiu: "Keep this first."
After leaving the note, she got up and left in a hurry.
Ah Jiu remembered it after just one glance, and casually crushed the note into powder.
"The old lady is here!"
After about ten minutes, someone shouted something, and a graceful old lady slowly walked into the hall surrounded by seven or eight people.
The person accompanying the old lady is none other than Xia Tian's cheap master, Wan Guiren. This old man doesn't have the spirit of immortality at this moment, and is no different from a normal old man.
Hu Huayu and Qi Yushi were closely followed, and the others could only follow slowly to join in the fun. Even Hu Huayu's father, Hu Yingxiong, didn't squeeze into the front row.
Xia Tian raised his eyes and looked at the old lady. After a while, he suddenly showed a strange expression: "It's a bit interesting."
"What's interesting?"
Ah Jiu asked with some confusion.
"This old lady is a bit interesting, and so is this family."
Xia Tian smiled and replied: "There is a good show at this banquet today. I hope they can work harder and not make it too boring."
