Chapter 398: Intentional Performance
"Sit, wasn't it quite kind just now, why is this restrained again? Gu's mother looked at Tao Jingjing's cautious appearance and deliberately teased her.
"Auntie, I was ...... just now" Before Tao Jingjing could finish speaking, Gu's mother directly interrupted her and said, "I know, you were deliberately angry with Jiang Xin'er just now, that's why you said that." ”
It turned out that her intentions had already been seen through by others, and Gu's mother was a little broken, Tao Jingjing immediately blushed, stood up directly, and said apologetically: "Auntie, I didn't mean to do this." I just don't like Jiang Xin'er's appearance. ”
Tao Jingjing lowered her head and stood straight in front of Gu's mother, completely like a schoolboy who had done something wrong and was waiting to be educated. Looking at Tao Jingjing's appearance, Gu's mother was not only not a little unhappy, but became more and more fond of Tao Jingjing, which may be what people often say "Xi Shi in the eyes of a lover", but this is the preference of the future mother-in-law.
After Tao Jingjing finished speaking, Gu's mother didn't say anything, she also stood up, pulled Tao Jingjing down to her side, and asked her to sit down. Then he stroked Tao Jingjing's hand very naturally and said, "Nuan, what kind of child you are, my aunt knows very well in her heart." Even if it is true as she said, my aunt will not feel unreserved, on the contrary, my aunt is willing to see you and Yan Bin coquettish. ”
Although Gu's mother didn't say Jiang Xin'er's name, Tao Jingjing also knew what Gu's mother was talking about. It's just that if Jiang Xin'er knows, Gu's mother doesn't even want to mention her name, but I'm afraid that Tao Jingjing will be blamed again.
"Auntie, what did you say?" was embarrassed by Gu's mother, Tao Jingjing complained quietly.
Gu's mother looked at Tao Jingjing and blushed, and said happily: "Okay, aunt don't say it, our little Tao Jingjing is thin-skinned, don't say it, don't say it......" Gu's mother's strange tone made Tao Jingjing even more embarrassed, she didn't feel that her face was hot, and her whole body felt inexplicably hot.
I don't know why, every time Tao Jingjing and Gu's mother are together, they feel that the picture is particularly harmonious. Especially now, Tao Jingjing's sunlight shines in obliquely through the floor-to-ceiling window opposite the two people, and the curtains gently shake under the breeze, making people feel more and more warm.
Xu was the reason why he had just cleaned it, and there was still some dust scattered in the air, but under the sunlight, it added a bit of haze to the two of them, making it even more impossible to divert their eyes.
"Actually, our Yan Bin is quite pitiful. Gu's mother suddenly talked about Xiao Xiche, which aroused Tao Jingjing's interest. Since he was a child, he has been responsible for the future of the family, and when the children were still in the arms of his parents, he began to learn all kinds of things, whether it was piano, painting or fencing, everything his father asked him to do his best. ”
Speaking of this, Gu's mother's mood was a little low, Tao Jingjing felt that Gu's mother at this moment was no longer the wife of the Gu family, but just an ordinary, ordinary mother, full of guilt for her son.
Thinking of Gu's mother's usual kindness to herself, Tao Jingjing no longer had any scruples, and went up the mountain directly to hug Gu's mother, and said softly: "Auntie, don't be sad, Xiao Xiche understands everything." And you see how good he is growing now, it's all thanks to you. ”
"yes, he's good now. Gu's mother cleaned up her mood and said slowly, "And since I met you, he is much happier than before." Although he doesn't say it, he can't hide it from me. Tao Jingjing, thank you for adding a touch of color to his boring life. ”
I didn't expect Gu's mother to say this, how could she think that Xiao Xiche didn't want to see her at all. However, she wouldn't tell Gu's mother what she was thinking, after all, she was so sad now, so she had to say kindly: "I'm also quite happy." ”
Knowing that Tao Jingjing didn't believe what she said, Gu's mother was just about to open her mouth to explain, when she heard a noise from the kitchen, followed by the sound of something breaking.
"What's going on?" Gu Mu asked loudly.
"Madam, Miss Jiang has to rush to wash the dishes, we said no. I accidentally broke a bowl back and forth. The aunt said respectfully, but there were still a few hints of complaint in her tone.
As soon as she heard Jiang Xin'er's name, Tao Jingjing subconsciously looked at the study, and secretly thought to herself, "Isn't she in the study? When did she come out? Why did she go to wash the dishes again?"
After listening to her aunt's words, Gu's mother knew what Jiang Xin'er was thinking about. "If it's broken, it's broken, just clean it up and don't hurt anyone. Gu Mu said calmly.
Auntie agreed, and was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Gu's mother again, "If Miss Jiang is willing to do it, let her do it, so that you can also rest." ”
The aunt was clever, and immediately understood what Gu's mother meant, and then said loudly: "Yes, madam." We know that Miss Jiang is kind and diligent, don't worry, we won't stop her. ”
Jiang Xin'er, who was cating in the kitchen, heard her aunt say this, thinking that it was Gu's mother's evaluation of her, and she was so happy that she worked harder. After cleaning up in the kitchen for a while, Jiang Xin'er took the rag and went to the living room, watching Tao Jingjing and Gu's mother chatting on the sofa, so she deliberately went to wipe the coffee table in front of the two of them.
Tao Jingjing looked coldly at Jiang Xin'er busy in front of her, and she didn't want to say anything. Coincidentally, Gu's mother also took the same reaction as Tao Jingjing, and the two of them continued to chat as if no one was around.
However, Jiang Xin'er didn't do it to wipe the coffee table, and when she found that no one took care of her, Jiang Xin'er took the initiative, "Auntie, Brother Yanbin was so naughty when he was a child, it's completely different from now." ”
Gu's mother was talking to Tao Jingjing, and Jiang Xin'er interjected coldly, which made Gu's mother feel very uncomfortable, and subconsciously frowned. But because of the identity of the elders, it was not good to attack directly, so he said coldly: "I think you may not have changed much since you were a child." Gu's mother didn't even glance at Jiang Xin'er, still holding Tao Jingjing's hand.
"Auntie, do you think so too? My father also said that I have been so beautiful since I was a child. After listening to Gu's mother's words, Jiang Xin'er blurted out directly.
Tao Jingjing almost couldn't help laughing when she listened to it, feeling that she was going to suffocate to death. "I mean, seeing you like this now, I know that you must have been very good at talking when you were a child. Gu's mother said mercilessly, not giving Jiang Xin'er any face at all.
Jiang Xin'er, who was still smiling just now, her expression froze instantly, and she didn't know what to say. was stunned for a while, so I had to wipe the coffee table in front of me again.
Seeing Jiang Xin'er being ridiculed, Tao Jingjing didn't say anything, if she usually said a few good words for Jiang Xin'er, but today Jiang Xin'er did too much, and Tao Jingjing didn't bother to take care of her.
After sending Jiang Xin'er back, Gu's mother continued to chat with Tao Jingjing, but this time she didn't talk about Xiao Xiche again, but talked about Tao Jingjing's childhood.
I haven't told anyone about my childhood experience for a long time, and as soon as I was asked, Tao Jingjing's conversation box opened and she talked endlessly.
In the early morning, the sun shines through the beige curtains and sprinkles on the porcelain vase. Tao Jingjing in the futon let out a sigh, she sat up from the bed, and quickly dressed and washed.
The girl in the mirror has fair skin, and the two strands of broken hair on her forehead are pinned behind her ears, thinking that she will see Jiang Xin'er in a while, her round and big cat eyes narrowed slightly, and her eyes were full of impatience.
On the long dining table, there were four Chinese breakfasts, and Jiang Xin'er was busy with the maid.
Looking at Tao Jingjing's almost perfect side face, she shouted in a weird way: "Sister, you don't have to be lazy at home, how can you be so rude outside, you get up so late, and you lose the face of our family." ”
"Then you're saying I'm also lazy, is yelling outside your upbringing?" Gu's mother, who had just come out of the bedroom and saw Jiang Xin'er acting as a demon, said angrily.
"Aunt Gu, I, I didn't, I was just too excited to see my sister so rude. ”
Jiang Xin'er, who was reprimanded, continued to smear her while cursing Tao Jingjing in her heart, and was about to wipe her tears as she spoke, as if someone had bullied her.
Gu's mother hated this kind of girl who reversed right and wrong, hypocrisy, and ignored Jiang Xin'er, but took Tao Jingjing's hand with a gentle face.
Jiang Xin'er's face turned pale in an instant, and she was extremely embarrassed, she turned her head to look at Xiao Xiche, and found that Xiao Xiche also looked at her coldly.
Seeing Jiang Xin'er so panicked for the first time, Tao Jingjing's smile went straight to the bottom of her eyes, and she affectionately took Gu's mother's arm and sat on the chair.
Looking at the three people who had already started eating, Jiang Xin'er sat down with a pale face, she clenched her fists fiercely, forcing herself to calm down.
After dinner, Xiao Xiche went back to his room, and Tao Jingjing also began to prepare for homework.
Seeing that her son had no communication with her ideal daughter-in-law, Gu's mother's eyes turned twice, grabbed Tao Jingjing, who was holding stationery, and said, "Nuan Nuan, Yanbin's clothes are not enough to wear, let's go pick out clothes together." ”
"Auntie, it's not appropriate for me to go, you and Xiao Xiche ...... together"
"I'll go, I'll go. Jiang Xin'er, who was pretending to wash the dishes, interrupted Tao Jingjing's words and rushed from the kitchen.
"Wait for me, I'll go upstairs and change my clothes. Jiang Xin'er rushed to the bedroom while wiping the water on her hands.
Jiang Xin'er hummed while picking up the clothes in the closet: "I must dress up well and press down the slut Tao Jingjing." ”
Seeing Jiang Xin'er's rude movements, Gu's mother's forehead wrinkled slightly, and she said to Tao Jingjing, "How can it be inappropriate? ”
Tao Jingjing didn't know how to refuse, so she had to call Xiao Xiche. Standing in front of the door, she exhaled slightly and knocked nervously on the door.
"Enter. A cold voice came from the room, Tao Jingjing pushed open the door and walked in, and the European style that greeted her was as simple and cold as the person in front of her.
