"Qingwan."
Father Xiao looked calm and said with a half-warning tone: "You are tired. Go out with your aunt first and go back upstairs to rest."
Xiao Qingwan stood motionless, obviously unwilling, and she was even thinking to herself:
"It's the jade bracelet belonging to the wife of the house master. Shouldn't it be given to my aunt? The Xiao family is a traditional family that attaches great importance to etiquette. Not to mention Ji Bai... Sister Bai Shu has not married her brother yet, and her mother-in-law is still here, so for the daughter-in-law—"
"Of course, the jade bracelet of the wife of the house owner can only be given to the wife of the house owner and the future wife of the house owner."
She was suddenly interrupted before she could finish her words, and the voice of the person who interrupted her was as cold as ice, showing no dignity at all, and openly showing traces of disgust.
Xiao Qingwan suddenly raised her head.
Xiao Lingchen gently held Baizhu's waist with one hand, and went directly to take the jade bracelet in Xiao's father's hand with the other hand. When he lowered his head, he coaxed softly, not even daring to make a louder voice, as if he was afraid of scaring her.
"The elders give it to you. You can't refuse it. Just take it."
Bai Shu has a special characteristic.
She would generally not accept something given to her without reason; but if it was definitely hers and someone else came to snatch it from her, she would not be polite.
Especially in front of a woman who covets Xiao Lingchen.
Bai Zhu suddenly raised the corners of his lips.
She has always been calm and generous, which is what Xiao Qingwan dislikes most about her. With an ordinary and humble background, how can she have the confidence to be calm and generous? But when Xiao Qingwan saw her sudden curled-up smile, she inexplicably read...
Deliberate ridicule
The same ridicule as Xiao Lingchen!
"My hand suddenly hurts and I can't lift it up." Bai Zhu pinched her throat and acted coquettishly. Even if her lips were red, her teeth were white, her face was pink, it looked like she was just pretending. She didn't care if she pretended to be careless, and she was afraid that Xiao Qingwan wouldn't know that she was doing it on purpose. , "I can't put it on, what should I do?"
… vomit.
It's really not human to speak with your throat pinched, and it's even more terrifying to act like a baby. She felt like she had goosebumps all over her body!
Xiao Lingchen's eyes were full of smiles, but he successfully took advantage of her performance and held her hand in harmony. He was so distressed that he said, "Why does it suddenly hurt? Don't move yet. I will help you put on the bracelet. Why don't you go find a doctor?" See? I will carry you now."
Ji Baishu: ...forget it, he acted even worse than himself.
Drama queens are really not something that ordinary people can be, especially since neither of them knows how to act. Every move they make is full of pretentious and disgusting affection.
Father Xiao and his friends were almost laughing to death at the young couple's silly banter. The tea drinker choked in his throat and rolled his eyes.
But Niwai has its own advantages, at least Xiao Qingwan is almost going to die from this occasion of declaring sovereignty.
Xiao Lingchen did not look at Xiao Qingwan, but Xiao Qingwan knew that his words were clearly directed at her.
"My mother is gone, so of course the bracelet will be given to my wife. As for other people - in terms of etiquette, the step-wife also has to offer tea and concubine ceremony to the original wife's memorial tablet. Shouldn't the lady go and give my mother a place in front of her? , offer tea and incense?"
Concubine ceremony!
This is humiliating!
Mrs. Xiao's face turned green and red, and she was deeply sullen, but she could only hold back the anger in her heart.
She glanced at Ji Baishu, who was firmly protected in Xiao Lingchen's arms. The resentment in her eyes could hardly be hidden. She turned and glanced at the head of the Xiao family, her eyes turned red in the blink of an eye: "Sir, Lingchen..."
If he openly humiliated her like this, Father Xiao should scold her. After all, she was his elder. This was...
But Father Xiao said nothing!
