Sure enough, everyone in the Xiao family was very hospitable, making it impossible for Qu Lanxi to keep a cold face.
"Miss Qu is so pitiful. She can't go home even for the New Year. She is alone in Qingbo Mansion, penniless, and has no place to go... So, I invited her to come back and celebrate the New Year with us."
Wan Qing introduced Qu Lanxi to her family in this way. Therefore, everyone in the Xiao family looked at her with pity. They also gave her all the things they had prepared for the New Year.
There is everything you need for food, clothing, and play.
"Wow, eldest sister gave you all her new clothes..." Wan Qing glanced at the things on the bed, her eyes full of jealousy. "Did I make your situation too miserable? They
I gave you all the good things."
"Don't think that if you ask them to treat me better, I will let you go." Qu Lanxi's face turned red and white.
Wan Qing shrugged, "I didn't expect you to let me go anyway." At this point, Wan Qing seemed confused, frowned and sat in front of her, looking into her eyes seriously.
"Speaking of which, can you tell me where I offended you?"
"Humph!" Qu Lanxi snorted heavily and turned her head.
Wan Qing gave her a speechless look, "Okay, if you don't say it, don't say it. I want to see how long you can hold on."
He said he didn't want to ask, so he didn't ask, and Wan Qing never spoke again from then on. He just kept an eye on people twelve hours a day.
Never let her leave her sight, never give her a chance to leave, let alone have any contact with anyone outside the Xiao Mansion.
New Year's Eve is coming in a blink of an eye.
Wan Qing took Qu Lanxi to have dinner with the Xiao family, and then dragged her back to her room.
In her words, she was afraid that she would be sentimental about the scene, so she just took a lot of delicious food and went back to the yard to spend some time alone.
In fact, the Xiao family's New Year's Eve dinner every year is a bit sad.
Because their parents were not around, the Luoying siblings always finished their meals in a hurry and returned to their rooms.
Not to mention Luo Xue and Luo Yu, their father was not here either, and they also went back early to accompany their mothers. Because they were concubines, they could not dine at the table with them.
Although Hongyun's husband and daughter are by her side, her son is not. Although Qin'er's parents are both there, the brother she misses most is not there...
