Chapter 389: Playing Tai Chi Around the Bush
After talking to Steward Su, Mrs. Tao closed her eyes and recuperated, rested quietly for a while, felt much more comfortable, then opened her eyes, opened her eyes, raised her eyes and looked at the curtain in front of her, thinking about Liu Changyu's actions yesterday, sighed leisurely, stretched out her hand to tidy up the hem of her clothes, and felt that she was almost taken care of, so she called out to the outside interview: "Steward Su!"
Steward Su had been waiting outside the car for Mrs. Tao to speak, and when she heard her call, he quickly turned around and bowed his head and said, "Back to the old lady, the slave is here, you call the slave to rest!"
Hearing Steward Su's reply, Mrs. Tao breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly, "Seeing that it's not too early now, and I'm almost resting, you come over and help me down first, and then go knock on the door!"
Steward Su heard Mrs. Tao say this, quickly jumped down from the carriage, and after standing still, he immediately turned around and bent down to take out a bench from under the seat and put it on the ground. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
helped Mrs. Tao down from the carriage and led her to the door of Li Yuqing's house, and when she got closer, she put down Mrs. Tao's hand and stepped forward to knock on the door of Li Yuqing's house.
Besides, Li Yuqing, since Li Yuxin and they left, they have been anxiously waiting for Li Youcai's news in the living room, when they heard a knock on the door, they stood up from their seats without thinking about anything, and walked towards the door.
When he arrived at the door, Li Yuqing did not open the door immediately, but stopped his movements, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, using this to relieve his nervousness.
After the door opened, Li Yuqing looked at the person standing in front of him and couldn't react for a while, and the smile on his face that had just been forced to hang on his face slowly disappeared, his brows furrowed, and he looked at the person in front of him with some doubts.
The person in front of her was not Li Youcai as she thought, but Li Yuqing always felt a little familiar when she looked at the person in front of her, although the approach was a little rude, but she still looked them up and down again, and after looking at them, she felt even more familiar, but she suddenly couldn't remember it for a while, so the two sides passed for a while without saying a word.
Besides, at this time, it was not Mrs. Tao who made Li Yuqing feel familiar, but Steward Su who was standing next to Mrs. Tao, why did this happen, it was because although Li Yuqing had also seen Mrs. Tao, but it was only a few years ago when she followed Liu Changyu to celebrate her birthday, and later because Liu Changyu was often not here, although Li Yuqing would send some things to Mrs. Tao every year during the Chinese New Year, and Mrs. Tao would also send some gifts back to her, but these were only limited to etiquette exchanges, and they actually didn't see each other's people again, so it was reasonable that Li Yuqing couldn't recognize herγ
Steward Su is different, when Li Yuqing opened a fried chicken restaurant in the county seat, Steward Su also went to congratulate the gift on behalf of Sufu, Li Yuqing, as the host, also accompanied him to eat in gratitude, plus it was not a long time, so it was natural to remember him.
Li Yuqing quietly looked at the two people standing in front of her smiling and silent, and finally remembered it in a flash of inspiration, and then looked at the person in front of her in disbelief and said, "Steward Su"!
Mrs. Tao heard Li Yuqing speak, she thought she recognized her, but she didn't expect Li Yuqing to call Steward Su is face stiff at the moment, and Steward Su didn't expect Li Yuqing to call him first instead of Mrs. Tao, and the smile on her face was also stiff, and then she was afraid that Li Yuqing's approach would make Mrs. Tao feel dull, so she quickly looked at Mrs. Tao sideways, and after seeing Mrs. Tao, she found that her face was pale and she was not unhappy, so she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned her face to look at Li Yuqing and said with a decent smile"Miss Li hasn't seen her for a long time, don't come unharmed."
Li Yuqing didn't know what kind of medicine Steward Su led someone to visit the gourd sold in the gourd, but she still shivered with him politely, of course, although Li Yuqing said this to Steward Su, she didn't completely forget the old lady Tao who was standing beside him.
It's not that Mrs. Tao did anything too much during the period when they were talking, the reason why the English lover didn't forget him was because Mrs. Tao was in a prominent position after all, and she was born with a lofty aura, which made it not so easy for people to ignore her, plus Li Yuqing found that although Steward Su was talking to her, his eyes were always looking at the old woman standing beside him intentionally and unintentionally, and his body was also unconsciously bent slightly.
Although Li Yuqing didn't know who she was, she also knew that her status must be higher than that of Steward Su, but thinking of this, she didn't think much about it, and she didn't associate her with Liu Changyu's grandmother, Mrs. Tao, so after following Steward Su's courtesy, she asked Steward Su in order not to be rude.
"Steward Su, may I ask the old lady next to you who came with you, what should I call him!"
Although Mrs. Tao had been standing in place and did not speak, she was still a little unhappy when she looked at and listened to Li Yuqing's chatting with Steward Su at first, and when she heard Li Yuqing say this, her heart was a little better, and the smile on her face was a little more.
Steward Su finally let go of the heart that Mrs. Tao had been carrying when she heard Li Yuqing ask, and hurriedly said, "Back to Miss Li, this is my old lady."
"Your old lady!" Li Yuqing couldn't help frowning after hearing the housekeeper's words, and muttered in disbelief.
Steward Su looked at Li Yuqing like this, nodded with a smile, and repeated again, "That's right, it's my old woman."
This was confirmed again by Steward Su, and Li Yuqing's head was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and his head was blank for a while, only a buzzing sound remained.
Seeing that she had been introduced, Mrs. Tao didn't think about the purpose of her visit this time, put more smiles on her face, stepped forward a few steps and affectionately pulled Li Yuqing's hand that was still stunned and put it in her palm, and gently stroked it with her hand and said a little dotingly. Yuqing didn't forget my old man, think about the last time we met for several years, although there was no interruption of contact during the period, but after all, I didn't meet, not to mention that you didn't recognize me all of a sudden, even I didn't recognize you all at once, I didn't expect you to become more and more Peugeot after only a few years, no wonder Yu'er often praises you in front of me, saying that you are beautiful, have a good mind, and you are really a female college eighteen changes!"
Li Yuqing felt that it was a bit unbelievable that Mrs. Tao suddenly came to visit, so she didn't react at once when Mrs. Tao stepped forward to hold her hand, but until Mrs. Tao said Liu Changyu's name, Li Yuqing's chaotic mind suddenly became clear, she didn't know what Mrs. Tao's intention was to come over today, but she still wanted to withdraw her hand conditionally, but Mrs. Tao held it a little tightly, and she didn't break free once, and she was a little embarrassed to break free later.
To tell the truth, Mrs. Tao is not so intimate with everyone, the reason why she is like this to Li Yuqing is because Li Yuqing looks a bit like an old man she knew before, and on the other hand, it is the most important aspect, that is, for Liu Changyu, Mrs. Tao is thinking of using the method of getting closer to Li Yuqing at this time to increase the bargaining chips that Li Yuqing agreed to say later.
Of course, Li Yuqing didn't know what Mrs. Tao was thinking about at this time! Although Li Yuqing knew in her heart that Mrs. Tao would not come to her house for no reason, she didn't think much about it when she thought about it deeply.
Since he has recognized all the people at this time, it is not a way to stand at the door all the time, Li Yuqing just doesn't like to be pulled by Mrs. Tao all the time, so he took this opportunity to break free from Mrs. Tao's hand, in order not to embarrass Mrs. Tao, Li Yuqing did not withdraw her hand but just reached in, and opened her mouth to invite them in.
Mrs. Tao has never seen anything in the world, although Li Yuqing's performance is not obvious, but after all, she is scheming and calculating, but she thinks that since Li Yuqing didn't say it explicitly, then she won't bother to show it again, so she pretended not to know.
Old Madam Tao did not immediately follow Li Yuqing into the house, but first arranged for Steward Su to send someone to Li Yuqing's house for the gifts they brought over, and then followed Li Yuqing into the house after the things were placed.
Before she came in, Mrs. Tao had already unconsciously looked up and down Li Yuqing's house outside, and after following in, her eyes unconsciously looked around left and right, looking at Li Yuqing's home, although it was not as vigorous as their Su Mansion, but thinking that it was not easy for Li Yuqing, a woman who had just passed twenty-eight years old, to build such a big family business from scratch, she nodded unconsciously.
Of course, although Mrs. Tao thinks that Li Yuqing is quite capable, she doesn't feel that this is entirely the credit of Li Yuqing herself, Mrs. Tao subconsciously thinks in her heart that Li Yuqing can have such achievements today, all rely on Liu Changyu, and think that it is Liu Changyu who helped her to make her where she is today, otherwise Li Yuqing will be unkempt like other women in the village to eat in the field.
Of course, these old ladies Tao were just thinking about it in their hearts, so Li Yuqing, who was walking in front, didn't know, but if Li Yuqing knew about these things, she would definitely be angry, because Li Yuqing knew that although Liu Changyu helped her a lot, she also used what she knew to help Liu Changyu make a lot of money, so to sum up, the two of them are just mutually beneficial, and if you really owe something, it's just love.
led Mrs. Tao into the living room, Li Yuqing let Mrs. Tao sit on the top out of politeness, Mrs. Tao didn't expect Li Yuqing to be a country girl with such a mind, and she was a little more satisfied with her in her heart, and she didn't shirk and smiled and sat down with her intentions.
Although I don't know the intention of Mrs. Tao and their come, but people come all the way over, no matter how you say it, you have to bring a cup of tea to others, because Li Yuqing's family has no servants, so Li Yuqing had no choice but to complain to Mrs. Tao and leave, and go to the kitchen to help them prepare tea.
After Li Yuqing left, Mrs. Tao said in a deep voice to Steward Su who was standing next to him and refused to sit down, "Steward Su, judging from the behavior of seeing Li Yuqing to now, what do you think of this Li Yuqing!"
Steward Su was stunned when he heard Mrs. Tao say this, although he knew from the beginning what Mrs. Tao's intention was to come today, but at this time, he didn't expect Mrs. Tao to ask him what he thought of Li Yuqing, but even so, he still replied honestly, "Back to Mrs. Hui, the slave thinks that this Miss Li is very good, she has to have a good look, she has to have a brain, and of course, the most important thing is that the young master likes her very much."
After Steward Su said this, he immediately looked up at Mrs. Tao's expression, and found that Mrs. Tao's face did not react lightly, and she couldn't figure out what Mrs. Tao was thinking for a while, so she had to bow her head and stop making a sound.
Although Mrs. Tao didn't say anything, but after listening to Steward Su's words, she still felt a little touched, although she didn't get along with Li Yuqing for a long time again, but even in this short time, Mrs. Tao could still see that Li Yuqing was much more brainy than her granddaughter Lin Yuerou, and this alone could help Liu Changyu in the future, so she was still quite satisfied with Li Yuqing in terms of light.
But as soon as she thought of what Liu Changyu told her yesterday, what Li Yuqing said about a lifetime and a couple, Mrs. Tao subconsciously looked down on Li Yuqing in her heart, and felt that Li Yuqing, who said such a thing, was a little self-conscious and a little pretentious.
The living room fell into a dead silence after Steward Su answered Mrs. Tao's words, and it was not until Li Yuqing boiled the water that it broke the tense atmosphere in the living room.
Helping Mrs. Tao pour the tea, Li Yuqing sat down next to Mrs. Tao's position, and watched Mrs. Tao bring a cup of water and take a few sips of tea, then asked out loud: "Mrs. Tao hasn't seen you for a long time, you came here today, but there is something wrong!"
Mrs. Tao had just finished drinking the water, and before she had time to put down the water cup, she heard Li Yuqing ask directly to the point, although she felt that Li Yuqing was a little anxious, but when she thought of it, she said it early and late, so she didn't consume it anymore, and after putting down the water cup in her hand and coughing lightly twice, she looked at Li Yuqing with a smile and pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Yuqing! My old woman came here today, and I really have something to tell you." β
Li Yuqing didn't expect Mrs. Tao's painting style to change so quickly, and for a while she couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd, but since the words had already been said about this, she had to take it, so she had to laugh and said, "I don't know what the old lady is going to say, if you are not in a hurry, you should send someone to inform me, I will go over, you are so old and tired, I feel uncomfortable." β
Although the old woman Tao knew that what Li Yuqing said was insincere, she was still very happy, and after nodding with satisfaction, she did not directly say the purpose of her coming, but played Tai Chi and asked Li Yuqing in a roundabout way, "Yuqing, what do you think of Yu'er!"
Li Yuqing was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and didn't understand why Mrs. Tao suddenly asked her how Liu Changyu was, and immediately thought of what Li Youcai told her yesterday in her head.
Old Madam Tao had been paying attention to Li Yuqing's expression, and seeing her like this, she didn't know what was going on, so she didn't continue to ask her about her opinion of Liu Changyu, but asked her with some concern, "Yuqing, why did your face become so ugly all of a sudden, is there something uncomfortable!"
Seeing Mrs. Tao looking at herself with a concerned face, Li Yuqing knew that she had lost her temper, so she waved her hand as if she was fine, and said with a smile, "Thanks to Mrs. Tao's concern, I have nothing to do, and Mr. Liu is fine." β
