Xie Yuanting was stabbed in a painful spot, his handsome face was grim, and he ignored Xie Yuanzhou.
Xie Yuanzhou didn't know that he had asked the wrong question, and when he saw Xie Yuanting's face suddenly dropped, he felt a little aggrieved. Fortunately, the delicious dishes were quickly served.
Xie Yuanzhou had been hungry for a long time and immediately ate happily, leaving all the previous grievances behind.
Xie Yuanting saw this and couldn't help but secretly despised him.
He is indeed a bumpkin from the countryside! He eats and looks so vulgar!
With the female family members on the other side taking a seat, it became much more lively.
Mrs. Xu was busy eating and drinking, and never forgot to flatter Princess Yongning and praise Sisters Xie Yunxi and Xie Mingxi. Her mouth was so busy that she foamed at the mouth, and occasionally spewed out some crumbs from the dishes.
Princess Yongning was disgusted and disgusted. She had no appetite at all and quickly put down her chopsticks.
Princess Yongning had a condensed look on her face, not showing much emotion.
Xie Yunxi, on the other hand, didn't have much money, and her dislike and contempt for the Xu family was clearly revealed. She just barely said "stay away from me".
As if she didn't notice, Mrs. Xu affectionately picked up a piece of meat with her chopsticks and put it into Xie Yunxi's bowl: "Yunniang, don't just listen to what grandma says, and eat more. Don't listen to the idea that being thin is beautiful.
In other words, the girl is still plump and lovable."
Xie Yunxi's eyes were full of disgust, and she responded stiffly: "I'm full."
"It's a gift from the elders, and I dare not refuse." A girl's voice sounded in my ears with a familiar and disgusting tone: "Grandma personally picks up the food, how can the second sister not eat it?"
Xie Yunxi's original three points of sullenness immediately turned into seven points, and she suddenly glared at Xie Mingxi: "I just won't eat it! You can eat it if you like it!"
Xie Mingxi did not argue with her. She sighed lightly and looked at Mrs. Xu apologetically: "Please don't be upset, grandma. The second sister is probably really full, and she has no intention of disliking grandma."
Mrs. Xu suddenly fell in love with Xie Mingxi, who was considerate and rescued her. She immediately smiled and said, "It's my old lady who is troublesome. How can I blame Yun Niang!"
A mouthful of Yun Niang! What right does an old woman from the countryside have to call her by her maiden name?
That’s all, Mr. Xie, he is a legitimate direct grandfather after all! This Xu family is just the successor of Mr. Xie, and it’s really disgusting and despicable to come to our door so shamelessly!
Xie Yunxi curled her lips and turned her head away.
…
Princess Yongning is used to being aloof. Today, she returned to Xie's Mansion just to show off her face as a "husband and wife". She doesn't have the slightest fondness for the vulgar and greedy Xu family.
After dinner, Princess Yongning took Xie Yunxi and Old Master Xie to say goodbye.
Xie Jun immediately said softly: "It's already getting late, why don't you stay in the princess's mansion for one night? It won't be too late to return to the princess's mansion tomorrow."
Princess Yongning looked coldly: "No need."
Xie Jun hit a hard target, but there was no embarrassment on his face, and he smiled and said: "Then I will send you mother and daughter out of the house."
Princess Yongning still looked indifferent: "No need."
Xie Jun: "..."
After Princess Yongning and her daughter left, Mr. Xie frowned and looked at Xie Jun deeply: "Ajun, I'm old and dazzled, please give me a ride."
The offer of a ride was obviously just an excuse. Mr. Xie had noticed something was wrong between the couple and wanted to ask questions carefully.
Xie Jun knew that he could not escape this situation, so he reluctantly agreed.
Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xie have been living in separate rooms for many years. At this time, she said shamelessly: "I will go back together."
Mr. Xie was feeling sulky, and naturally he didn't look good at this moment. He snorted coldly and said, "No need. You and your wife live in the same yard, so I can be quieter."
Mrs. Xu had taken full advantage today and did not want to have a falling out with Mr. Xie, so she nodded pretending to be aggrieved.
…
After Mr. Xie and his son Xie Jun left, Xie Yuanting also left without saying a word.
Xie Yuanting's attitude was so arrogant that it was like a slap on the faces of everyone in the second room of the Xie family.
Xie Ming's face burned with embarrassment, and he lowered his voice and said: "Mom, I think we should go back to Lin'an!" Anyway, they got five hundred taels of silver, which was enough for them to settle down and support their family.
Mrs. Xu glared at her son: "What nonsense are you talking about! This is Xie's Mansion, we should live here. Why go back to Lin'an?"
Xie Ming had always been cowardly and obedient, but when Mr. Xu glared at him, he immediately became silent and did not dare to say anything again.
Mrs. Que immediately came forward and held Mrs. Xu's arm diligently: "Mom, calm down, don't get angry with this idiot. We will listen to mom in everything."
Xie Yuanzhou, who was standing aside, came over and held Mrs. Xu's other arm: "Grandma, do you eat so much meat every day when you live in the Xie Mansion?"
Mrs. Xu was amused by Xie Yuanzhou's greedy look, and slapped Xie Yuanzhou gently: "Eat, eat, eat, you know how to eat! If I had devoted all my time to studying, I should have read all the Four Books and Five Classics."
Xie Yuanzhou grinned and was about to speak when a pleasant girl's voice suddenly sounded: "Grandma and my second uncle and aunt have worked hard all the way, so it's time to take a break and settle in early. I'll send my grandma, second uncle and aunt back."
It was Xie Mingxi who opened his mouth.
Compared to Xie Yunxi who was full of contempt and Xie Yuanting who was full of disdain, Xie Mingxi's gentle and smiling look was like a warm spring breeze blowing through the hearts of Xu and others.
Mrs. Xu smiled at Xie Mingxi and said, "We are new here, and we are not familiar with Xie's Mansion yet. We have Lao Mingniang here."
Xie Mingxi smiled slightly, a faint smile spread from her eyes, and her beautiful and beautiful face shone like a pearl: "It is natural to respect your elders. My grandma said this, which made my granddaughter feel ashamed."
After hearing these two short sentences, Mrs. Xu felt relieved and smiled.
The second wife of the Xie family is extremely poor, has neither wealth nor power, and has nothing to plan for. Xie Mingxi takes the initiative to show her kindness, which is much better than Xie Yuanting and Xie Yunxi who look down on others.
Xie Mingxi was well versed in the art of putting on a show, so she personally stepped forward and held Xu's arm.
Mrs. Xu laughed cheerfully, her old face stretched like a chrysanthemum. It was much more pleasing to the eye than the greedy face before.
…
Half an hour later.
In the study room.
Xie Jun bit the bullet and told everything about the relationship between "husband and wife".
Mr. Xie's face was as dark as water and he stared straight at Xie Jun: "Is everything you just said true?"
Xie Jun looked ashamed and responded in a low voice: "Yes!"
Mr. Xie, with a livid face, picked up a paperweight and threw it over.
Fortunately, Xie Jun's reaction was quite nimble and he managed to avoid one after another. The square paper weight fell heavily to the ground, making a muffled thud. Then, it fell apart.
Xie Jun suddenly broke into a cold sweat: "Father..."
"Useless thing!" Mr. Xie gritted his teeth and cursed angrily: "It has been more than ten years, but I haven't even been able to surrender to a woman. To this day, we are still a fake couple!"
"Why did I give birth to such a useless son like you!" (To be continued)
