Chapter 208: The Demeanor of a Mistress
Old Man Jiang really couldn't stand it anymore, so he got up and went to Gu Yan's side, Gu Yan hid in a corner, he was panicked now, what if the old man was watched by others?
"Grandpa, why are you here? Gu Yan said such a sentence to Old Man Jiang with a blue face, but Old Man Jiang didn't care, and at this time, Xia Ran was also attracted over.
"Gu Yan is such a coincidence, why are you here? Grandpa, it turns out that you came to find Gu Yan, why don't you tell me? If you tell me, I will carry you over." Xia Ran deliberately pretended to be very familiar with the old man in front of Gu Yan, but the old man still turned a blind eye to Xia Ran.
"Grandpa couldn't stand it anymore, so he came over. When Old Man Jiang said this, it could be said that he didn't give Xia Ran a face at all, Xia Ran flattened his mouth, and felt that it was really boring and left.
"You don't know, it's all chirping in its ears like a sparrow, and it's annoying. The old man was also quiet, and he didn't pull Gu Yan to say more, and the two of them quietly hid in the corner, not letting others notice.
While walking, Xia Ran cursed Gu Yan in her heart, she was really damned, she actually stole her own limelight, and she was the only one in her grandfather's eyes. Since this is the case, don't blame yourself for being polite, anyway, everyone thinks that they want to be with Jiang Chenxi.
Looking at the new guests, Xia Ran was very enthusiastic, and when he walked to the door, he pulled them to talk.
"It's really an honor for you to come here today and hurry inside to rest, and after a while the old man will speak. Xia Ran said as he looked like he was leading the way, and the guests all smiled at him, naturally they didn't want to offend Xia Ran, they felt that Xia Ran was going to be with Jiang Chenxi, that is, the future young lady of the Jiang family.
Xia Ran was flattered like this, and he didn't know how to describe it, so he was even more emotional, Liu Qi, who was originally taking care of the guests on the side, was also lazy now.
"Since she is willing to be so showy, I won't rob him, hey, it's really rare, there are still people rushing to do such tiring work. Liu Qi sighed as he took a piece of pastry, and the last plate also rested, anyway, Xia Ran supported it here, it not only satisfied his vanity, but also helped him finish things.
Maybe it will be better than what she did, because she also wants others to recognize him, so as to invisibly put pressure on Jiang Chenxi. Looking at the guests coming and going, Xia Ran felt extremely satisfied, since the old man of the Jiang family did not buy his own account, it was enough for others to buy his own account.
Seeing that another guest came, although she didn't know what her identity was, she felt that she would not be wrong to greet her with a smile, "Hurry up and please, I guess a few people are also tired, I am really honored for you to be able to come to the old man's birthday banquet today." After saying these words, Xia Ran once again led people to their seats, watching them talk and laugh there, Xia Ran felt that all this was because of what he did well, so no one was confused and didn't know where to go or was very angry.
Silently watching them, she felt that she was becoming more and more successful, she just wanted to make an example for Jiang Chenxi to see who was more caring, and she was still holding on to Gu Yan, she wanted to let Jiang Chenxi know that she had no reputation, and she didn't know how to please people, she was absolutely untenable in the Jiang family, and she would definitely succeed.
The guests came one after another, and Xia Ran didn't let himself be idle, looking at those mediocre people, a little clumsy.
"I said that you people should also turn back quickly, how to get the guests in a hurry, who of you can afford it, this is the old man's birthday banquet, you are all sharp!" Xia Ran blamed the servants who were walking back and forth slowly, and the servants looked at her incredulously, and naturally knew who she was.
It is true that the relationship between Xia Ran and the Jiang family is not shallow, so although people don't want to hear what he said, they are all flattering to do it, and there is a servant who talked about a little wrinkle because he was in too much of a hurry, and he fell down, and the red wine spilled on the ground, crackling.
"I'm really sorry, I'll clean it up, please don't be angry. "The mediocre fell hard, and there was a glass ballast, how could he not hurt when he collapsed?
But he still got up silently and quickly got up and apologized, hoping that everyone would not care about this matter, and then went to pick up these glass shards with his bare hands, but Xia Ran was still unrelenting, as if he had finally come to drive, and there was finally someone who could bully.
"I said how do you do things clumsily, if you can't do it well, just leave this house, what the hell is going on?Why did you suddenly drop these wine glasses, do you know how much these wine glasses cost?Can you afford to pay for them?" Xia Ran relied on himself to see some of the world, and felt that these wine glasses must be of great value, so he deliberately used wine glasses as a topic.
Everyone turned their attention to it, and Xia Ran was even more sensational.
"Hurry up and clean up here, don't let anyone get into your hands because of your mistakes, otherwise you will wait for this month's salary and leave, the Jiang family really doesn't need a clumsy maid like you." Standing aside and talking energetically, Xia Ran felt that she had finally attracted the number of everyone, and now it is estimated that everyone attaches great importance to her.
And some of the women next to them saw that Xia Ran had been talking here for so long, and they also hurried over to persuade them, and in their hearts, they also had that little thought, he might be Jiang Chenxi's wife, so it was better to stammer.
"Look what you're doing, but why make yourself angry if you're a mediocre person who can't do things, and you're so expensive. "I wanted to leave with Xia Ran, but Xia Ran was still there pretending to pull and pull, and I was very reluctant to leave.
"In the past, if he was clumsy, it would have been forgotten, but now what an important occasion, he dares to be so reckless, is it really hurtful that they will be happy?"
The person who pulled her stopped talking, and didn't interfere in this matter anymore, since Xia Ran is willing to show off, let her show off, anyway, she can't offend Xia Ran.
At this time, everyone noticed Xia Ran's troubles, and Gu Yan felt very embarrassed when he saw such an appearance, so he persuaded Jiang Chenxi to stop all this.
"Otherwise, go over and take a look, what the hell is going on, there is a lot of noise there, after all, this is the old man's birthday banquet, not a place for quarrels. Gu Yan gently pulled Jiang Chenxi's sleeve, he didn't want to attract the attention of others, but such a noisy city really made her uncomfortable.
Jiang Chenxi glanced at Gu Yan twice, thinking in his heart that Gu Yan was jealous, so he quickly accepted this matter, and no longer hesitated, strode forward, the maid was already said to be about to cry, and she was also a young girl, because she had no experience, so she didn't leave quickly for this matter, but continued to apologize there.
"What happened to you, why are you so noisy? And what are you doing standing here? According to Gu Yan's instructions, Jiang Chenxi came up to help this servant and let him leave quickly, if the person didn't leave, Xia Ran would still be here and wouldn't let go.
At this time, Xia Ran felt that he was a little embarrassed, Jiang Chenxi actually didn't help him reprimand the servant together, and let the servant go, and now it seemed that he had nothing to do.
"You don't know that he smashed the wine glass in the house and almost injured the guest, so I should reprimand him. Xia Ran still unconsciously regarded her as the mistress of the house when she spoke.
Jiang Chenxi blackened his face and waited for Xia Ran to hit the muzzle, but it didn't last long, and his brain did hit him.
"I think you should have misunderstood, what right do you have to reprimand the maid in my family like this, even if he did something wrong, there must be no need to apologize to you, did she hurt you?" Jiang Chenxi didn't leave Xia Ran with any affection, Xia Ran was embarrassed on the spot, and everyone looked at Xia Ran with mocking eyes and a look of schadenfreude.
Xia Ran secretly clenched his fists, feeling that such a thing was really embarrassing.
opened his mouth and just wanted to argue, Jiang Chenxi's words came again, "Okay, don't continue to reprimand others here, in this family, you should attend the old man's birthday banquet, and I didn't invite you originally, right?" As soon as Jiang Chenxi's words came out, even if he didn't explain, everyone also understood, it turned out that Xia Ran was not the young lady of the Jiang family at all, and it was estimated that she would not become the wife of the Jiang family in the future.
The original deliberate compliments to Xia Ran were all gone, and Xia Ran was very resentful with tears flashing in his eyes, hoping that he could win everyone's sympathy with pity, so that Jiang Chenxi couldn't get off the stage.
"Let's all continue to enjoy this feast, since it is a small matter, everyone should not focus on this matter anymore. Saying that, Jiang Chenxi was about to wave back everyone, and when everyone looked at this posture, they naturally didn't fail to give Jiang Chenxi face, but secretly laughed at Xia Ran for moving a stone and hitting his own feet.
Seeing that everyone left, Jiang Chenxi could be regarded as leaving a little affection for Xia Ran, and did not embarrass her even more in public, "Next time, don't make such assertions at home, and don't let others think that you are my unmarried wife and I will never marry you, I hope you can understand all this, it is not time to change all this." ”
After saying this, Jiang Chenxi also planned to leave Xia Ran, and he couldn't stand it at all, he felt that he had suffered great humiliation and stimulation, he tried so hard to please everyone, and he also regarded the affairs of the Jiang family as more important than himself, but Jiang Chenxi embarrassed himself like this.
