Meng Qingqing didn't dare to look at Rong Qiao's eyes. At this moment, she felt like a clown. The joy of being praised just now was completely washed away by the unspeakable shame.
She originally wanted to win the old lady's favor, but she didn't expect to make such a joke.
Later, Xu Youlan chatted with the younger generations, and four-year-old Xu Mu was held in her arms.
Xu Mu was still holding the Rubik's Cube in his arms. His chubby little hands were fiddling with the little gadget in his hands, and his eyes like black grapes were staring at Meng Yao without blinking.
Xu Youlan rubbed his soft hair: "Mumu, why are you staring at your sister-in-law?"
"Beautiful...Sister-in-law is beautiful!"
When these words were spoken, everyone laughed.
Yang Jiaxin was sitting next to Xu Youlan and said, "Mumu is a smart kid. He knows what is beautiful at such a young age."
"This child is smart..." Xu Youlan sighed, "My body is getting less and less useful. I don't know when I can hold my great-grandson..."
After Xu Youlan finished speaking, she glanced at Rong Yun casually.
"What nonsense are you talking about, old lady? You will definitely live a long life. In a few years, Yiqing and Ahe will get married, and those young people will be all around you."
"I hope so..."
"Mumu wants his sister-in-law to hug him!" Xu Mu said as he stretched out his hand, revealing a lotus root-like arm.
"You have to ask your sister-in-law if she is willing to hold you." After saying this, Xu Youlan looked in the direction of Meng Yao.
Meng Yao had never liked children since she was a child. She thought it was too troublesome. Just as she was about to say something to reject them, she saw Rong Qiao walk up to Xu Mu and hold him in his arms: "Why are you throwing a tantrum here again? I have told you many times that bad company breeds badness. Aren't you afraid of picking up bad habits?"
Xu Mu had never been treated so harshly by Rong Qiao before. Her lips pursed and crystal tears were about to flow out.
Xu Youlan scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
When Meng Yao saw that Rong Qiao didn't want her to hold the child and was scolding her in a roundabout way, she instantly became excited.
"Mumu, don't cry. Come here, let your sister-in-law hold you!"
Xu Mu opened his eyes wide and stopped crying immediately.
Rong Qiao didn't want to let go at first, but after seeing Xu Youlan's warning look, he had no choice but to let go.
Meng Yao held Xu Mu in her arms.
You know what, this guy is quite heavy.
Xu Mu stretched out his fat little hands and grasped Meng Yao's hair, not using much strength, just for fun.
Rong Qiao had just been angry with Meng Yao, and now when he saw his son lying obediently in someone else's arms, he instantly became furious.
But Meng Yao provoked her: "It doesn't matter if you pick up bad habits, I can just hug you and it will be fine. Isn't there a saying that goes, 'If you keep company with vermilion, you will become redder.'"
Rong Qiao was so angry, she really didn't expect Meng Yao to be so eloquent, with such a sharp tongue!
Xu Mu seemed to really like Meng Yao. He lay on her shoulder and played with her hair attentively. Even his favorite Rubik's Cube was thrown at his feet.
Rong Wei watched as Xu Mu's hands kept pulling at Meng Yao's neck, and seemed to be moving down. His eyes were stern: "Let me hold her!"
When Xu Mu saw Rong Yan with a cold face, he flapped his legs non-stop: "Mumu, don't! Mumu, don't let him hug me!"
So Rongqiao said to Xu Mu: "Mumu, let your brother hug you. Aren't you the one who listens to your mother the most?"
Xu Mu lowered his head reluctantly.
He is four years old this year, and his impression of the people around him is always very intuitive. Rong Yan often has a cold face like the King of Hell, and even his smile is chilling. Xu Mu is very afraid of him.
Meng Yao felt her elbow was a little tired, so she handed Xu Mu over.
Xu Mu never thought that he would be in Rong Yan's arms in a flash, and he didn't even have time to cry.
"Mumu doesn't want anyone to hold him! Mumu is a man and doesn't need anyone to hold him!"
Rong Wei put him down directly and praised him, "Good boy."
Xu Mu felt that the compliment was also chilling. He immediately ran to Rong Qiao with his short legs, grabbed Rong Qiao's trouser leg and hid behind her, with only half of his head sticking out from behind.
Meng Qingqing found a random excuse and went out. She was really bored staying here. She couldn't get a word in at all and felt like sitting on pins and needles.
Rong Qiao just responded casually. Meng Qingqing didn't know if she had seen it wrong, but she always felt that Rong Qiao's attitude towards her had become a little cold.
Meng Qingqing suppressed the grievance in her heart and went out quietly.
Meng Qingqing knew that a big family like the Rong family had many rules, so she didn't dare to go too far. She grew up in the countryside, and what she feared most was that others would say she had no rules.
Suddenly a message came, Meng Qingqing looked down and saw it was from Cui Yi.
I have ignored him for a while, and now I am feeling sad, so I can find some comfort from him.
Meng Qingqing sent him a few messages, and Cui Yi was ecstatic about her news. When he learned that Meng Qingqing was bullied, he repeatedly promised that he would make Meng Yao pay for it.
As soon as he said this, Meng Qingqing instantly lost interest in continuing the conversation. Whenever she thought of Cui Yi's cowardly look when he was frightened by Meng Yao, Meng Qingqing felt that she didn't want to have anything to do with him again in her life.
Meng Qingqing stayed outside for a while. Seeing that no one came out to look for her for such a long time, she couldn't help feeling a little sad.
She went up the stairs and passed Rong Yiqing at the corner.
When Rong Yiqing glanced at her from the side, Meng Qingqing wasn't careful and almost fell down the stairs.
Meng Qingqing held the handrail tightly, tears welling up in her eyes. She complained, "How can you be so cold? I was about to fall down just now, why didn't you help me up? Young masters like you will never care about other people's feelings. Don't other people's lives matter?"
Rong Yiqing stopped and looked back at her: "It wasn't me who pushed you, so what does it have to do with me if you fall to death today?"
"You... How could there be someone as vicious as you..."
Meng Qingqing was still wearing the same exquisite dress, but a look of sadness appeared on her face, making her look pitiful in an instant.
Rong Yiqing's voice was still cold: "I admired your talent, but I didn't expect you to deliberately frame my sister-in-law. Your purpose for coming here is not simple, right? You keep saying that others are immoral, but I think you are the most vicious person!"
"you you… "
