That somewhat vulgar and shrewd old face also looked particularly sincere.
Xie Mingxi smiled slightly: "Okay, if I want anything from my grandmother, I will definitely open my mouth."
Xu was by no means a fool. On the contrary, when she learned that the letter inviting everyone to come to Beijing was written by Xie Mingxi, Xu had some vague guesses.
During these days, Xie Mingxi was deliberately trying to win over her, and Mrs. Xu knew it very well. Until now, Mrs. Xu was certain that Xie Mingxi did have some plans for her and everyone in the second room.
But what's the harm?
There is no real blood relationship between them, and talking about family ties between grandparents and grandchildren is just a joke. What she and her children and grandchildren need are tangible benefits. And Xie Mingxi also knows this, so she quietly helps her to stand firm in the inner house.
Heel, and found an excellent wife for Xie Lanxi and her brother.
Such benefits are clearly visible and within reach. It is much more reliable than the casual promise Xie Jun made back then!
Therefore, Xu chose to stand beside Xie Mingxi without hesitation.
Although Xie Mingxi is young, Xu does not look down upon her at all, and even has inexplicable strong confidence.
Xie Mingxi will definitely not be a thing in the pool in the future!
The hope of the Xie family to revitalize their family may really fall on Xie Mingxi.
At least, much stronger than that idiot Xie Yuanting!
Regardless of emotion or reason, Xu will choose Xie Mingxi!
Xie Mingxi did not disappoint Mrs. Xu, did not pretend to be dumbfounded, and simply agreed.
Mrs. Xu looked at Xie Mingxi, who looked calm, and smiled happily: "You have to take the monthly exam tomorrow, so rest early tonight! When you come back with the top spot in the exam, I will ask the kitchen to cook a delicious meal to celebrate for you."
…
The next morning.
Xie Mingxi got up early as usual, changed clothes and freshened up. Then she went to pay her respects to Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Xu.
Xie Jun and Aunt Ding are also there.
Aunt Ding held two boxes of snacks in her hands, one for Xie Yuanting and the other for Xie Mingxi. She smiled lovingly and said: "Yuan Ting, Ming Niang, you two have exams today. I got up early specially to prepare for you."
I made some pastries to satisfy my hunger when I’m hungry.”
Xie Yuanting took the food box and thanked him.
Xie Mingxi did not stretch out her hand, but said calmly: "No need. Ye Qiuniang has specially prepared snacks and asked Fuyu to bring them."
Aunt Ding's expression froze, then she smiled bitterly and sighed: "Ming Niang, it was my fault in the past that hurt your heart. In the past two months, you have ignored me, and I don't know how uncomfortable I am."
"It's just that I am your mother after all. Do you want to hate me for this matter for the rest of your life?"
As she spoke, her eyes were red and her voice was slightly choked: "Ming Niang, just accept the snacks I made for you with my own hands! Just think of it as my apology to you."
Aunt Ding was born delicate and beautiful, but now she looked down and down and spoke nice words, which made her look really pitiful.
Xie Jun saw this and felt a little uncomfortable. He opened his mouth and said, "Ming Niang, please accept the snacks."
Mr. Xie also said: "Only when the family business is harmonious can everything prosper! Ming Niang, my grandfather knows that you have suffered great grievances. However, now you are a student of Lianchi Academy. There is no need to worry about the past. In the future, my grandfather will also
I will love you a little more to make up for the grievances you have suffered."
Mrs. Xu did not say a word.
Aunt Ding looked at Xie Mingxi with tears in her eyes.
Xie Yuanting held the hand of the food box, exerting force unconsciously. He looked calm but actually looked over nervously.
…
Xie Mingxi still didn't move, her eyes swept over everyone, and finally landed on Aunt Ding's face, her eyes bright and sharp: "Auntie, are you really making this box of snacks yourself?"
Aunt Ding nodded repeatedly: "That's right. I didn't lie to anyone else, it was really made by myself." Then she said in a softer voice: "I made your favorite walnut cake."
Xie Mingxi said calmly: "The one who likes to eat walnut cakes the most is my eldest brother."
Aunt Ding: "..."
"My eldest brother used to live in the princess's mansion for a long time and only came back twice a month. I knew that my aunt felt sorry for my eldest brother, so I said that I like to eat walnut cakes. In this way, after my aunt made the snacks, I would take one and give it to my eldest brother."
"I am considerate of my aunt, so I have never told my aunt. In fact, I don't like walnut cakes at all."
Aunt Ding's face was full of shame and embarrassment: "I'm sorry, Ming Niang. I was so careless that I never noticed this. I'm sorry! It's just that it's too late to make it again today. You can take this box of walnut cake with you first, reluctantly.
Eat it once. I will cook what you like from now on."
Xie Mingxi looked at Aunt Ding intently: "Give this box of walnut cakes to my eldest brother too!"
Aunt Ding's expression changed slightly and she glanced at Xie Yuanting subconsciously.
Xie Yuanting also looked a little unnatural, and said in a feigned unhappiness: "You used to eat walnut cakes a lot. It's just that you don't like them, and you can't eat them. I already have a box, so you can just take this box."
Xie Mingxi twitched her lips with a half-smile: "Brother is particularly concerned about me today."
This damn girl, why didn’t you accept the food box?
Xie Yuanting was secretly worried, but pretended to be calm and calm: "We are brothers and sisters, so it is natural for us to care about you."
"oh?"
"If I really eat the walnut cake from the box, I'm afraid I won't be able to take the exam again today."
…
The last sentence, like thunder, exploded in the ears of Xie Yuanting and Aunt Ding.
The explosion made the mother and son's faces suddenly turn pale!
Xie Jun's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes quickly swept across Xie Yuanting's Aunt Ding's face. When he saw the strange looks on the two people's faces, what else did he not understand?
Anger is igniting!
"Ding Hanxiang! Xie Yuanting!" Xie Jun's face was gloomy and furious: "Is what Ming Niang said true? What did you do in the dim sum?"
Aunt Ding's mind went blank and she instinctively denied: "No, no! Ming Niang is talking nonsense. This snack is clean and there is nothing wrong with it."
Xie Yuanting also hurriedly denied: "Father, don't be deceived by Third Sister. This walnut cake is made by my aunt herself, how can there be a problem?"
Mr. Xie frowned, his eyes darkened.
Mrs. Xu had guessed what was going on and couldn't help but snorted: "Yuan Ting, it's not my grandmother who told you. As an elder brother, you should be proud of having an outstanding sister like Ming Niang.
It's so bad for you that you actually came up with such a despicable way to frame Ming Niang out of jealousy!"
Pooh!
What a cruel bastard! Even worse than me!
Xie Yuanting's face turned green and red, but he refused to admit it: "How can my grandmother slander me without any evidence?"
Xie Mingxi smiled coldly: "Whether it is slander or not, you will know once you try it. Now eat all the walnut cakes in my aunt's hand!"
