Chapter 238: Story Mortgage
A powerful character can often be seen in her eyes or her every move. What's more, Zhong Yuli is the boss in Wucun, and the focus of her disguise is to make people believe in the theory of the gods she created, as for the rest, majesty or something, purity in appearance, kindness in heart or something, there is no need for disguise for a long time.
Therefore, when facing Su Xi, the so-called friendliness and politeness have long been destined to become the stage of omission.
"You're the woman who drew the story on top of the lantern. ”
Su Xi didn't think that there was a friendly element in Zhong Yuxuan's words, there was obviously an unwelcoming posture in it, to be precise, there was a demonstration in the tone.
Su Xi nodded, and the smile on his face was somewhat flattering.
Women, the tougher you are, the more you show your differences, the more special you will look like and the more you will be able to attract the attention of others. And wars between women often start with a scramble for attention.
It is precisely because Su Xi is well aware of this that she tries her best to make herself look more ordinary and has no merit, so that Zhong Yuli can relax her vigilance against herself, so that her daily life in the mansion will not be affected and supervised, and she can smoothly approach Jing Hao.
Zhong Yuli looked at the flattering and flattering smile on Su Xi's face, and felt a little more disdain and contempt for her in his heart, he had thought about the appearance of so many talented women, but he didn't think about it, he was just a storyteller, but there was nothing special about it, but he looked up to her.
Zhong Yuxuan's gaze seemed to have seen through Su Xi, and he didn't care to show it, so he instantly transmitted his gaze to other places, ignoring Su Xi no longer heed.
The patriarch coughed twice in a little embarrassment, and Su Xi looked at the patriarch.
"Miss Su, what story are you telling today?" asked the patriarch to Su Xi, trying to resolve the embarrassment caused by the sacrifice just now, ignoring Su Xi.
"Patriarch ......"
"Miss Su, I don't know why you came to Wu Village, are you planning to live in Wu Village for a long time? Patriarch, you didn't leave her behind to listen to the story, right?"
Su Xi was about to answer the patriarch's words, but Zhong Yuli asked coldly, first questioning Su Xi's purpose, and then feeling very inappropriate about the patriarch's leaving Su Xi, and also questioned.
Obviously, for Su Xi's arrival, Zhong Yuli was full of thorns, as if he couldn't tolerate Su Xi.
Even if others knew what was going on, they didn't dare to speak rashly.
In other words, Feng Qin and Wen Er felt that their family's sacrifice was already the most beautiful and temperamental woman in Wu Village, but when they saw Su Xi for the first time, they couldn't help but marvel in their hearts.
If they think that the sacrifice is the most beautiful woman in Wu Village, then the woman named "Suxi" in front of them is like a woman who came out of a painting. Simple hair accessories, simple clothes, clean and refreshing complexion, at first glance, she is the kind of woman who is very comfortable and easy to get along with.
Instead of being like a sacrifice, a look, a look, is terrifying, but it can't be seen from the face of this girl called "Su Xi", but it makes Fengqin and Wen'er have some good feelings for her for no reason.
As the saying goes, one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, and the same beautiful women together will always cause comparison and jealousy, presumably, it is precisely because of the threat of Su Xi that the sacrifice will have such great hostility towards her.
Zhong Yuli questioned Su Xi and the patriarch again, and now there is no need for Su Xi to guess, you can see who is better than the patriarch and the sacrificial status.
Su Xi glanced at the patriarch, and saw that the patriarch looked at Zhong Yuli with some embarrassment and even more embarrassment, she knew that she couldn't speak rashly at this time, otherwise, maybe she would let Zhong Yuli sentence her for a crime of not knowing the rules, wouldn't it be in vain to let her teach her a lesson?
The patriarch swallowed his saliva, weighed his words, and said, "Miss Su is here to look for someone, but because she has no travel expenses, and she doesn't want to receive my kindness for nothing, she uses storytelling as a countervail. ”
In a few sentences, the patriarch explained Su Xi's intention and why he stayed in the mansion.
Su Xi shook her head in her heart, she was afraid that if Zhong Yuli didn't figure out what she was here for, what her identity was, and whether she was a threat or not, she wouldn't give up.
Sure enough, after listening to the patriarch's answer, Zhong Yuli was not satisfied, and he did not give up, he looked at Su Xi again with his scrutinizing gaze, and asked, "Who are you and who are you looking for?"
As soon as Su Xi heard it, Zhong Yuli still suspected that he had something to do with Jing Hao, once Zhong Yuli realized that he had a great relationship with Jing Hao, and might even take Jing Hao away, Zhong Yuli would definitely not let him go.
Sui Zheng saw that the atmosphere was getting more and more wrong, and hurriedly said, "Miss Su is actually ......."
"Doctor Sui, I didn't expect you to know Miss Su so well, presumably Miss Su was brought in by you, right?" Zhong Yuli really didn't let anyone go, Sui Zheng was just about to explain to Su Xi, but she interrupted him, and her words were full of sarcasm and sour words.
When Su Xi heard this, it seemed that this Zhong Yuli was really on the same page as herself, and she had no choice but to confront her in person.
So, Su Xi told Zhong Yuli what he had said to the patriarch again, but Zhong Yuli was not the patriarch and didn't ask anything, especially Su Xi's words had mentioned the Abang she saved, which made Zhong Yuli unbearable.
"Abang was rescued by me, he is not a good gambler like your husband, this is one, second, you said that your husband can do a little kung fu, but Abang doesn't know any martial arts, and third, Abang did not marry a wife. So," Zhong Yuli looked at Su Xi with a look of arrogance and determination in his eyes, "Abang can't be your husband, and he won't let you see it, because Abang doesn't like to see people." ”
This Zhong Yuli is amiable with a "Abang", as if Abang has already become her relative, and a "living person" isolates Suxi and Abang all the time, and cuts off Abang and other people on his own initiative.
Although Su Xi has seen an authoritarian strong woman in the business circle, she has never seen an authoritarian strong woman like Zhong Yuli, who is delicate on the outside, but is actually full of scheming.
Su Xi didn't want to get into trouble with her, after all, she still wanted to live in the patriarch's mansion until she had a way to take Jing Hao away. Therefore, she must be soft on Zhong Yuliang, and make her feel that she has no threat to her, and she has no other thoughts about Abang, or simply admit that Abang is not her husband.
