The old lady's face immediately became ugly. Xie Cen looked at Lady Xu and saw that she was wronged, who would have known that Second Miss would be befriended by her like this?

Seeing that, Lu Bingsheng stopped Gu Heng and started discussing business matters, thus did not let him lose his composure. Eldest Miss, who was in Lady Xu's embrace, seemed to feel that the atmosphere was not right, and suddenly burst into tears, resolving the awkward atmosphere.

"Big sis, don't cry. Be good. Grandmother will give you a big red packet."

"Our sister knows that her mother has been wronged." Xie Jingqi went forward and hugged Eldest Miss and personally consoled him in her arms.

"Say less." After Lady Xu said this sentence, Xie Jingqi shut her mouth.

"Jing Qi is like this in her old friend's house?" You didn't get them to kick you out? " The old lady's eyes could not bear to see sand, the more she looked at Xie Jingqi, the more she disliked him.

"Grandmother, did you see that? My mother-in-law really wants to kick me out. Ever since my eldest brother disappeared, she has been treating me like a child with nose, eyes, and nose. She has changed her way of being a Cypriot in my house."

"Second sister, stop talking. It's the new year, it's not the time to talk about this at home." Xie Jingyi then pulled Xie Jingqi outside, "I think sister is tired, quickly carry her down to sleep, and when it's time for dinner, I'll call for you."

The Old Granny sighed angrily, and Lady Xu said: "Mother, Second Miss was too used to calling me that. Actually, she only had her mouth open, so please forgive her."

"I can forgive, but can other people's Marquis Mansion forgive? Aren't you angry that a daughter-in-law like this asked you to do something? When you were a girl, didn't you teach her how to be the housekeeper?

Lady Xu really couldn't explain anything. Although she adored Xie Jingqi, she knew that her daughter couldn't be taken out right. Who knew that they were brought the same way, why would they bring out such two people who were as different as the sky and the earth?

"Grandmother, don't be angry anymore. When I have time, I will go to the Marquis Mansion to take a seat and remind her." "Xie Jingyi came in from the outside and held Xie Jingxi's hand," Third sister won't lower herself to her level, she must be treated with more responsibility, if she bullies you, you can tell me, I'll teach her a lesson in your place.

"Big sister is too serious, they are all sisters of the same family, you can say whatever you want to bully or not bully. Second Miss will say a few words to me, I will just listen."

Xie Cen said to Lady Xu coldly: "If you have time, say a few more words about her. If you don't listen, then tell me, let me teach her a lesson, why are you throwing our family's face away like this?

"Yes, I'll tell her when I get back."

Recently, Lady Xu was acting like a little wife in front of Xie Cen. Xie Cen nodded his head, "Also, Sixth Miss has increased by one year next year, so if you have nothing better to do, bring her out to see our wives and grandmothers. It's time to bring up the matter of marriage."

The Lady Xu was startled, why did the old master suddenly remember to tell him about Sixth Miss? However, Xie Jingyi understood, it must be because of the matters in the palace, allowing the Auntie Xue to get the better of him.

As expected, Xie Cen continued, "You've been busy this past year, and are about to prepare Third Sister's marriage.

When she said this, what was there left for the Lady Xu not to understand? This changed the way she looked at him, and she started to be wary of the Auntie Xue in her heart.

Manager Xu spoke out from outside: "Reporting to the Old Madem, old master, madam, the Prince Jin's Wife and the Crown Prince's Wife have respectively sent over New Year's gifts, all prepared for our family's young masters, and asked them to pick some things to play with."

Usually, the nobles in the palace would choose the second day of the new year to reward the young ladies and aunties who came back to visit. It was not strange for the Prince Jin's Wife to reward them, they have never interacted with the Xie Clan before, but what were they singing about this year?

Xie Cen asked: "What else did the people from Crown Prince's Wife say?"

Manager Xu replied, "Crown Prince's Wife also sent a message to our Third Miss, saying that it's for the Sixth Eastern Palace to enjoy the feast, and told Third Miss to go."

The crown prince had been locked up for several months and had just been released a few years ago, so the crown prince's wife invited her to a banquet. It was obviously not a good idea for her to attend, so Xie Cen said to Steward Xu, "Prepare a generous gift for the crown prince's consort.

"Yes, I will go and get some people to prepare it."

The old lady did not know what happened to the crown prince and asked in confusion, "Crown Prince's Wife is fine, why did you invite us Third Sister to do it?"

"Grandmother, Crown Prince's Wife is just being polite with us. She usually holds banquets and people from the Marquis Mansion will all go, maybe that's why she's calling me that."

"Oh, I see." The old lady nodded. "Since you still haven't passed, it's not appropriate for you to go. It's better to go back."

Xie Jingxi never thought that the crown prince would actually refuse to let him go, the killing intent in her heart grew even stronger.

When it was time for lunch, Gu Yun suddenly sent someone to deliver a few dishes, they were all personally prepared by the head chef of Gui Yue Lou.

The old lady was very satisfied, even Xie Cen was praising him for being courteous. Gu Yun had thought it through thoroughly, the elders in the family had all worried about the taste, but of course, the most important thing was to worry about Xie Jingxi. Growing up in Jiangnan, she had plenty of fish, shrimp, and crabs. What was rare was that the weather was cold and fresh. Not only did she spend a large amount of money on them, she spent quite a bit on them as well.

Look at our Third Aunt, she's amazing." "I don't think there's a second person in the entire capital who has done it," Xie Jingyi teased him as usual. "Look at this crab, such a fat crab, it would take a lot of effort just to preserve it even now, not to mention the master of Gui Yue Lou. My father-in-law had set up a banquet before, but we've only been meeting master of Gui Yue Lou for a little more than a month.

Fourth Brother only studied year-round and only saw people these few days. He secretly glanced at Xie Jingxi, saw that her sister looked better, and then lowered his head, as usual, he didn't dare to think that the Lady Xu was too close to him, he only said that in the future, his brother-in-law would be good to his sister.

The old lady enjoyed her food and praised Gu Yun, "He's a sensible child."

Xie Cen was also thinking in his heart, if it was not that he was unable to take out his third son-in-law, he would definitely have to find a job for him in the future.

Xie Jingqi only ate a few bites before letting go of her chopsticks and said indifferently: "Uncle dotes on my wife, in the future when she closes his doors it will be extremely painful, and this is a fish and a crab. She knows that we grew up in the north and are not used to it, so she sincerely does not want us to eat it."

"Are you done yet!?" Gu Heng slapped his chopsticks, and glared at Xie Jingqi.

Lady Xu said, "Even eating can't stop your mouth, your uncle treats you well. Back then, your life was saved by him, how could he not know his virtue when he spoke?"

Xie Jingqi threw away her chopsticks, "I still don't know who it is that is immoral, but my big brother's health is not good, maybe he was caused by that medicine of unknown origin. If he really had a miracle medicine, how would I still be able to live..."

"Pah!"

Gu Heng, who was at the side, slapped her in the face, "Can you stop using your big brother as an excuse to cause trouble? If not for Big Brother's medicine, would you have been able to live until now? Xie Jingqi, why are you so unsatisfied! "

"Big brother has left. All of you are safe. I, as his mother, am unable to live peacefully for even a day. He was killed just like that!" "Once Xie Jingqi started, she acted like a shrew," When I didn't know that your Marquis Mansion were all twisted and twisted, when she doesn't have a son, and when he acts like she doesn't care about Marquis Mansion at all, how could I be willing?

"You ungrateful bastard!" Xie Cen was also enraged, "Go and invite the family rules over, see how I'll teach her a lesson today!"

Gu Heng had always quarreled with her in such a manner. With a belly full of grievances and anger, he glanced at Xie Jingxi with a bit of pain in his eyes, and took a deep breath, "Mother Huang, bring Eldest Miss back to the residence."

Gu Heng cupped his fists and said: "Grandmother, mother-in-law and father-in-law, my family still has some social events, so I'll head back to my residence first. I'll pay my respects to you again tomorrow."

Xie Jingqi shouted at his back, "If you want to leave, then leave, and leave my Eldest Miss behind. If you don't want to see me, then I won't go back, because there's no place for me in your Marquis Mansion either!"

"Kneel down!" Xie Cen slapped over with his palm, causing half of his face to turn red.

The old lady threw her chopsticks in anger, "Jingwan, let's go back to our room. It's the new year, just watch and make a fuss."

Xie Jingxi advised: "Grandmother, don't be angry, it's a pity that we don't eat this table. Brother Rong and Niu Niu are not full yet, and I have not eaten either.

Second sister has always been like this since she was young. Father has invited many ways to go home, but he doesn't have long to remember them. Don't be angry, after beating her up, she becomes obedient.

When Niu Niu heard that Xie Jingqi had been beaten up, she was extremely frightened, "Mother, did Second Aunt steal some sweets? Niu Niu will not dare to eat anymore, Mother, don't hit me Wuu …"

Xie Jingyi coaxed her, "That's right, Niu Niu shouldn't learn from your second aunt, if you listen to your mother, she won't beat you up."

Niuniu sobbed as she looked at her with teary eyes. "Really?"

"When has mom ever lied to you?"

When the old lady saw that her grandson was adorable, she also came over and teased him for a while.

Lady Xu had not even let out a breath of relief when she saw Nanny Feng coming over with a flustered look on her face. She whispered in front of Lady Xu: "Madam, Zhao Chang's body was not feeling well just now, I think I'm glad to see that. I went to look for Tai Fu, she said it's been over a month."

Lady Xu was shocked, "Really?"

The Nanny Feng nodded her head, this was indeed not good news, the Zhao Chang Family's daughter-in-law was no stranger, it was the Liu Er that was previously accepted by the Nan, Liu Er had only been here for a few days, the child was without a doubt from Nan.
