"That's nothing. Xiao Ya can like our Ah Yi, and bring him good fortune!"
Seeing that the atmosphere had mostly eased up, the tense expression on Li Hui Xiu's face finally relaxed a little as she said this with a smile.
When I saw this sight, I chuckled helplessly in my heart. I didn't intend to stay at my original spot to draw attention to myself. However, right at this moment, Mrs Xu put down the teacup in her hands, inadvertently turning her head to survey her surroundings. Thus, she quickly discovered me standing foolishly by the door.
In this Li Family's big house, there had appeared a woman who appeared to be around the same age as Xu Anya. In addition, the Xu Family parents had more or less heard some things from their own daughters.
Perhaps it was because of this that when Xu Tingsheng's mother turned her head and saw me, she looked at me with a rather unfriendly gaze. However, the questioning words that came out of her mouth turned towards Li Huixiu, "Dearest mother, this is?"
Mrs Xu's greeting was accompanied by a sharp tone of interrogation, as if if if Li Hui Xiu had not given her a good answer now, she really could have ended the matter there and then.
I felt extremely awkward. I knew that this was great, I had no way to hide even if I wanted to.
"This, but the new servant of our Li Family is called Ah Yun."
When Li Hui Xiu saw me, his face that was just fine a moment ago immediately collapsed. It was just that she didn't show any expression of losing her composure. After a long while, she looked at me and said that.
Anyway, Li Hui Xiu had not treated me like this for a day or two now. I had long since gotten used to it and had even gotten used to it, even having been able to smile at her in an unperturbed manner as I greeted people very politely, "Auntie, Miss Xu."
"How can a servant have such rules? This is truly rare."
Mrs Xu obviously did not believe Li Hui Xiu's words. The mocking expression on her face was not concealed at all, in short, she had never thought of giving Li Hui Xiu face.
Li Hui Xiu was not angry, but said smilingly: "If you don't like her, I can kick her out right now."
"There's no need for that. It's so that people won't think how troublesome our Xu Family is." A similar smile appeared on his mother's face, but if one looked closely, they could see that this smile was obviously somewhat cold.
When Xu Anya saw me, she still nodded slightly, but didn't say anything superfluous. Or perhaps she felt that since Li Tianyi was not here, she was too lazy to put on an act.
I was very happy about this. I didn't want to stay here any longer. On the contrary, I cooperated with Li Hui Xiu to give me an identity. I lightly said, "Madam, if there's anything that you want me to do, I'll go down first."
At this moment, Li Huixiu raised her head and looked at me. Her cold gaze made me feel extremely pressured, but after a while, I didn't dare to look straight into her eyes anymore. I thought to myself, this situation is really worrisome.
After hearing my words, Li Hui Xiu didn't say anything, but nodded his head in response to my request. Seeing this, he was so relieved, and wanted to leave immediately.
"Wait."
At this moment, I had only taken a few steps when Mrs Xu called out to me. My body was a little stiff, barely able to turn my head to face the imposing Mrs Xu.
While sighing in my heart, I remained unperturbed on the surface. I even took the initiative to smile and greet him, "Madam, do you not know what is the matter?"
My attitude is so good that no one can pick on me, it's just that Mrs Xu doesn't buy it at all, it's a pity that she doesn't buy it, she coldly smiled, the contempt in her eyes is very obvious, her mouth even saying unforgiving words, "If I remember correctly, you are that woman at Ah Yi's side right? How come in the Li Family, instead of being the mistress, he became a servant! This is not a very good job. "
Mrs Xu's sarcastic voice gave me a headache, making me feel even more amused. I thought to myself, even if I'm someone close to Li Tianyi, what does my current situation have to do with a stranger like you? If it was purely for the sake of her daughter, Xu Anya, then I felt that it was understandable. But the root of the problem was that Li Yanyi and I had never had any relationship.
It was just an ambiguous business relationship.
Therefore, I felt a headache coming on but didn't want to show weakness in front of a stranger. Thus, I smiled and said lightly, "Thank you for your concern, Madam. I just don't need you to tell me how I made it."
Mrs Xu's face immediately paled from my words. Her hand which was once again holding the teacup tightened and she slammed the teacup onto the table, making some noise. Following that, her pair of muddy but unusually sharp eyes stared at me, "Who the hell are you to dare talk to me like that!"
"My dear mother, since when did the Li Family have such poor eyes when it chose servants? They actually dared to talk to a visiting customer like this. Is it because they have A'Yi by their side that they are fearless!?" Or do you think that our Xiao Ya deserves to suffer the wrath of this slut, Xiao San? "
Mrs Xu viciously spoke a series of words, causing people to feel annoyed. Moreover, every single word she said was like a cocoon in the ears of everyone else.
"What are you saying? I just said that I love Xiao Ya so much that I couldn't make it in time. Otherwise, how could I have left this woman at home?" Since you guys are here today, then I will say it here. In our Li Family, other than Xu Anya, there are no other women that can enter the eyes of this old granny of mine! "
These words could be said as a great relief to the Xu Family. I had clearly seen the Xu Family's parents heave a sigh of relief, and had even seen Xu Anya face me with a smirk on her face.
In this regard, I naturally could only smile, and did not take this matter to heart. At this moment, I only had one thought in my mind, and that was, what does your Li Family's daughter-in-law have to do with me? I don't understand why they should be so wary of me.
"Are you sure you don't want to ask my opinion?"
Just as the Xu Family's parents were feeling reassured by Li Hui Xiu's words, Li Tianyi had returned from work at an unknown time. Due to the chaos in the living room, when he walked over, there was almost no sound at all. When he opened his mouth to speak, everyone heard his voice and reacted. They all focused on him.
However, his return made everyone present look very embarrassed. Only I let out a small sigh of relief. I was very clear in my heart that as long as Li Tianyi returned, there was no need for me to deal with all these complicated matters.
Thinking of this, my whole body felt lighter, and I was in the mood to stay and watch the show.
