Cheng Xi was definitely not at ease to sit at the table over there alone. She did not feel that it mattered even where she sat, so she took the 100 years old from Xu Sanlang and replied, "I'll go with him."
Xu Wenyu opened his mouth to stop him, "It's alright, let's sit here. There are more people over there, we can still sit here."
The expression of the Old Madam Xu at the head of the table darkened, but she did not voice any objections, Cheng Xi looked at the table full of people, and when Xu Wenyu said that, she stopped her movements, and unceremoniously, continued to sit down.
Xu Erlang, whose face had been gloomy the entire time, was still resentful in his heart of Cheng Xi instigating his own mother to be beaten up, and was still lying on the bed unable to get up. In the end, he couldn't help but say with a weird tone, "Hmph, our own son still hasn't come to the main table, but has actually let the little bastard of another family sit at the main table."
Hearing Xu Erlang scolding the hundred year old little bastard, Cheng Xi, who had long been captured by the hundred year old clever and adorable, snorted coldly and replied, "It's not good to say it out loud. In my opinion, there are some people who are scum, otherwise why would they keep saying such things."
In the end, Xu Erlang couldn't hold it in anymore. After hearing what Cheng Xi said, he couldn't help but slam the table as he said angrily, "Bitch, what are you trying to say?"
Hearing his son being scolded as a little bastard, even the Second Brother Xu felt somewhat unhappy in his heart, but he was still a little calmer than Xu Erlang. In time, he pulled Xu Erlang to sit beside him, and spoke with a gloomy face, "Don't speak nonsense."
Cheng Xi let out a "hehe", and laughed sarcastically in response, "Second Uncle's meaning is that only the officials of the Xu Province can set a fire, and not any lights? What can Xu Erlang say, and what can't I say? "
Xu Erlang was pulled by his own father to sit down, but his mouth was not stuffed with words, as he continued to curse, "A little bastard who was originally brought back from the outside, why are you sitting on my table?"
Seeing that Xu Sanlang and Cheng Xi's expressions had changed, Xu Wenyu immediately scolded them, "All of you shut up, don't speak if you don't know how to speak." However, it was clear that these words were mainly directed at Xu Erlang.
Xu Erlang, who was being shouted at, had his eyes turn red from unwillingness, thinking in his heart, Originally, when he was at home, if there was anyone who was unruly and pampered by him, they would always be against him, and every single one of them thought it was his fault. His own mother was also punished because of him, and now, he was even more so unable to get up from the bed while being beaten up by his father.
Xu Erlang stared at Cheng Xi with reddened eyes, and said: "Why don't I know how to speak, you were originally just a little bastard, you allowed Xu Sanlang to keep him at our house, and when they came back, we were all disturbed, and you all actually helped them, helped them bully our family, and beat my little brother. My mother was beaten so badly that she couldn't get up, you all, you all …"
After hearing her son's painful accusations, Second Brother Xu thought that Cheng Xi always provoked his family, and her face also darkened.
However, Cheng Xi didn't say anything at this time. It wasn't a wise decision to provoke Xu Erlang at this time, he could only sit quietly to the side and wait for things to progress.
Seeing that Xu Erlang had lost control of his emotions, he actually extended his hand to pick up some food for Xu Erlang, and said, "Let's start eating."
Xu Erlang looked at the extra dishes in the bowl, then raised his head and looked at Xu Wenyu with a gaze that seemed to be both comforting and warning him. Xu Erlang then immediately lowered his head and obediently started to eat his meal.
Cheng Xi saw that the commotion was about to break out, but in the end, she had suddenly calmed down.
Because of the farce before, the tables were all quiet. The atmosphere was very heavy, and there was not even a trace of joy in the new year. Even the tables the children were sitting at were all quietly eating without a single person speaking.
Cheng Xi's heart was not as heavy as the Xu Family Member's, and was even more anxious, as this did not achieve the goal that she wanted.
So Cheng Xi rolled her eyes, she had an idea in her mind, she started to repeat herself, and acted as a diligent porter, moving the good dishes on the table into Xu Sanlang's and her bowls, and loved to eat before Xu Erlang picked up the dishes, stretching out his chopsticks and picking up the dishes that Xu Erlang wanted.
How could Xu Erlang, who was already unable to hold back, endure such provocation? The anger that was originally suppressed by Xu Wenyu, instantly soared back up, and when the food that he was about to grab was once again intentionally or unintentionally picked up by Cheng Xi, Xu Erlang finally couldn't hold back and directly threw the chopsticks in his hand towards Cheng Xi.
Cheng Xi had always been paying attention to Xu Erlang's movements, so how could she let the chopsticks in Xu Erlang's hand smash onto her body? His body just in time to shift and she dodged Xu Erlang's attack and she even pretended to look at Xu Erlang in fear, "What are you doing?"
Xu Sanlang looked at Xu Erlang with a wary face as well. In case Xu Erlang attacked again, he could protect Cheng Xi in time.
Because of Xu Erlang's sudden outburst, everyone stopped moving and looked towards Xu Erlang and Cheng Xi. The Old Madam Xu saw that his Fourth Brother's eyes had become even colder and hurriedly said, "Zi Xiong, why can't you even hold a pair of chopsticks steadily? Quickly pick them up and go wash."
The reason why he was doing this was obviously because he was trying to save Xu Erlang from trouble.
However, how could the angry Xu Erlang know the Old Granny's intentions? He stood up angrily and scolded Cheng Xi, "Wretch, what are you trying to do?"
Cheng Xi remained unperturbed as she sat in her own seat. She raised her head and looked at Xu Erlang with contempt, "You call his a little bitch, what does that mean? Isn't it just a meal, and you're even throwing chopsticks? What's so virtuous about that? "
Xu Erlang pointed at Cheng Xi angrily, "You intentionally stopped me from eating. Look at that bowl, how many lives have I not eaten in it?"
Cheng Xi curled her lips, reached out to pick up his bowl, and under everyone's puzzled gaze, she placed all the dishes in his bowl into Xu Erlang's bowl, and said disdainfully, "Why didn't you say so earlier, if you want to give it to you, that's enough, right?"
Xu Erlang seemed to be enduring it, but in reality, he was trying to add fuel to the fire. Xu Erlang angrily reached out and grabbed the bowl on the table, and then continued to smash the bowl towards Cheng Xi. How could Cheng Xi possibly let the bowl hit him?
Cheng Xi secretly cursed in her heart. She herself could completely avoid the bowl, but if Xu Sanlang were to pounce at her like this, he could actually avoid it, and would definitely smash Xu Sanlang. In that moment of life and death, Cheng Xi's reaction and actions were rather quick, she extended her hand and grabbed the closest plate on the table to block it.
The people at the main table, from the initial shock, to the panic when the food flew out, to the shock after being hit by the move, finally, anger gradually appeared on everyone's faces.
Everyone's eyes that were filled with anger were shot towards Cheng Xi. At this moment, it could be seen that these people completely disregarded Cheng Xi as a Xu Family Member, and were still protecting him.
Cheng Xi already knew the morals and goals of Xu Family Member, but he didn't care about their attitude towards him. She innocently shrugged and said, "Why are all of you looking at me? He threw it. I just put my plate in front of it. "
The Old Madam Xu's face was gloomy, but in the end, she could not take it anymore, and angrily said, "You little bitch, you disturb our family with just your food, are you sincere in coming to our house to cause trouble?"
Cheng Xi looked innocent as she replied, "What you said is wrong. Firstly, I did not come to this place myself, you invited me here, no matter what you said; secondly, I have never messed around with things like this, using loaches to scare people, urging outsiders to hit people with rocks and throw a bowl with chopsticks. These things are all good deeds done by your daughter-in-law, you can't blame it on me."
Having her face snatched white by Cheng Xi, Old Madam Xu pointed at Cheng Xi and shouted "You, you, you" for a long time before she finally managed to utter a complete sentence, "If it wasn't for you causing a ruckus, how could there be so much trouble?"
Cheng Xi laughed coldly, "Then you are saying that you will personally go and bring us back and then allow Xu Family Member to bully us? You will not retaliate at all and that will not end so easily? Your thoughts are really good. "
Xu Erlang, who was at the side, had a gloomy face. He wanted to rush in front of Cheng Xi, but yelled out, "Wretched girl, see if I, your father, won't slap you to death." However, Boss Xu stopped him just in time.
Cheng Xi saw that the farce was over, if it continued, she would be done for. She secretly pulled Xu Sanlang and said, "Seems like you do not treat us as Xu Family Member after all."
Xu Sanlang also stood up and replied, "Since the Xu Family cannot accommodate us, we will leave first." With that, he stood up, carried his hundred years old, and held Cheng Xi with one hand as he walked out of the big door.
Xu Erlang watched the two leave with bloodshot eyes. He was about to charge out unwillingly, but he was firmly held back by Xu Wenqiang.
Seeing that Xu Sanlang and Cheng Xi actually planned to leave, Xu Wenyu looked at Xu Erlang with a gloomy face, got up and quickly chased, "Wait."
Cheng Xi pulled Xu Sanlang to a halt at the entrance of the courtyard. After that, he turned around and smiled faintly at Xu Wenyu, "Is there anything else, Fourth Uncle?"
Xu Wenyu forced out a fake smile, and replied, "Xu Erlang doesn't understand, our elders will definitely teach him a lesson. It's the new year, how can he go back to his own house, quickly go back to his room."
At this time, Cheng Xi did not want to offend Xu Wenyu and had a falling out with him, so she pretended to look sad: "I know Fourth Uncle is a good person, and is always thinking for us, but, aiya …."
