Chapter 5: So be it

Along the way, Xue Xi was thinking about the strange things that happened today.

Her white fingers lightly covered her chest, and her always expressionless eyes revealed a little confusion, and when she was at school in the afternoon, there was nothing abnormal in her body.

But the pain in the morning is still shocking when I think about it now.

If you don't fall in love, you'll die...... Why on earth is this happening?

Until she returned home, she didn't have any clue, she was absent-minded and was about to go upstairs when Xue Yao's surprised voice came from behind her: "Uncle Fan, Aunt Fan!" ”

Xue Xi's footsteps paused slightly, and then he realized that there were guests at home.

The old lady sat on the sofa in the living room with a smile on her face, but Ye Li sat next to her in despair, her eyes were red at the moment, and she had obviously just cried.

Opposite the three of them, there were two middle-aged people, a man and a woman, the woman smiled at Xue Yao first, her eyes fell on Xue Xi, and after sweeping her up and down, she pouted slightly, and her tone was frivolous: "This is Xixi, right?" It's a Peugeot ...... long."

Xue Xi paused, and before she could speak, the old lady "snorted": "Yes, I grew up in an orphanage, I don't have any tutors, I can't even call people, I'm stupid, where is like our family Yaoyao, who has been clever and sensible since she was a child, diligent and studious." ”

“…………”

Xue Xi decisively closed his mouth.

Xue Yao smiled sweetly, trotted and sat next to the old lady, coquettishly grabbed her arm, and asked affectionately and flatteringly: "Uncle, aunt, why are you here?" ”

The two of them suddenly showed embarrassed looks and did not speak.

But the old lady didn't care much and said: "Let's discuss the marriage contract of the two families!" You're about to celebrate your 18th birthday, and when your birthday is over, I'll give you and the Fan family kid ......"

"Mom!" The words were suddenly interrupted by Ye Li, "This marriage contract is sunset, you can't do this!" ”

The old lady drooped her eyelids, and her tone was very serious: "The Fan family and we are close friends, and we made a marriage contract back then, so that the two families can work together and the relationship will go further." If you have to let Xue Xi marry her, isn't this harming the Fan family? That's not a marriage, it's a feud! ”

Ye Li stood up abruptly and shouted aggrievedly: "Xi Xi married in the past, why is it a feud?" ”

She felt very sad that her daughter, who had worked so hard to get back, was so disliked.

The old lady didn't feel that she was too much at all, "Since you ask so, then I'll make it clear." How good Fan Han is, we all know that from childhood to adulthood, he is the first in all aspects, and this child has a promising future. And what about Xue Xi? How can she be worthy of Fan Han as a nerd? Do they have a common language? ”

Fan Han discussed academic questions with her, did she answer? Fan Han goes to a banquet, can she dance? Does she play the piano? She won't know anything! When two people are together, it's a joke to say it! ”

"But our Yaoyao has always been very good, she is with Fan Han, this is called a talented woman, a golden boy and a jade girl."

Ye Li was blocked and couldn't speak, her mouth opened, and she wanted to say something, but the old lady didn't give her a chance to speak, but looked at Xue Xi: "Xue Xi, what do you think?" ”

As soon as these words came out, several people in the living room looked at her.

Faced with this look, or worried, Xue Xi twisted his eyebrows.

Although she had only been back for a day, she had already figured out the situation of the family.

The eccentric grandmother, the weak but sincere mother, and the malicious cousin, the two elders of the Fan family who obviously look down on her...... It's kind of annoying.

As for that Fan Han - during class today, she noticed such a person, how could this group of people say that they were so good, at least not the rest, just in terms of appearance, compared to the men in the store, they are far worse.

A trace of impatience flashed in Xue Xi's beautiful big eyes, and she said slowly: "That's it." ”

After saying that, she indifferently withdrew her gaze and walked upstairs, leaving only the people in the living room looking at each other.

This posture, how can it seem that she is not so rare Fan Han?

Mrs. Fan frowned, slightly unhappy in her heart.

Halfway, the old lady smiled: "Since Xue Xi has self-knowledge, then this matter is so decided!" Let's talk about the children's engagement. ”

The atmosphere was in vain relaxed.

In this case, Xue Yao was not suitable to stay at the scene, she stood up: "Then you talk, my cousin may not have done well in the exam today, and she handed in the paper in just half an hour, I'll go see if she needs help." ”

Before running upstairs shyly, she didn't forget to tell Xue Xi a complaint.

Ye Li tightened her chin, she looked at Fan's mother, and sure enough, she saw disdain flashing in the other party's eyes, she hurriedly explained palely: "There are only nine years of compulsory education in the orphanage, and I haven't learned the high school course, so it's normal to be no, I'm thinking about finding a tutor for Xixi......

The old lady interrupted her with a sneer: "Is it useful to ask for a tutor?" I think it's a waste of money, so it's better to buy more clothes for Yaoyao...... The children of our Xue family are very smart, this child is so stupid, he has your family's genes, maybe he will be a psychopath in the future! ”

Ye Li blushed suddenly.

She clenched her fingers, a flash of annoyance in her eyes.

Ye Jia...... My father was originally a university professor, but a few years ago he suddenly became mentally ill, and since then, the old lady who didn't like her has been sneering at her.

And now he cursed her daughter......

Ye Li stood up with a pout, "Mom, I'm fine no matter what you say, but you can't say that!" ”

"Smack!"

Although the old lady was old, her speed was not slow at all, she slapped Ye Li in the face fiercely, interrupting her words: "It's against you!" Dare to talk back to me in front of the guests! Now we are going to discuss Yaoyao's marriage, nothing to do with you, get out of here, don't be embarrassed here! ”

Ye Li's cheeks were hot, and she looked at the old lady in disbelief.

In the middle of the noise, she covered her face and ran upstairs.

-

Although the room where Xue Xi lived was not as delicate and beautiful as the one decorated by Ye Li, it was also spacious and bright enough.

She threw her schoolbag on the desk and lay down on the bed, her hands behind her head, staring at the light purple curtains fluttering in the wind.

Perhaps because she grew up in an orphanage, she had no ambitions since she was a child.

My only hobby is learning.

She has an almost pathological thirst for knowledge. But the things that you can usually touch are too shallow, and the advanced content is only available in institutions of higher learning.

So, her goal is to get into the best university.

It's just that it will have to wait a year.

While thinking about it, there was a commotion downstairs.

Thinking that Ye Li was still downstairs, Xue Xi got up, opened the door, and just faced her who had just gone upstairs.

Ye Li paused, subconsciously turned her face sideways, not wanting her daughter to see her appearance, but when she passed by Xue Xi, she grabbed her wrist, Xue Xi's eyes were very sharp, and her voice was very cold: "You, what's wrong with your face?" ”
