Before the old man of the Xue family finished speaking, Qiao Nian was slightly stunned.

In my impression, she doesn't seem to have any contact with the Xue family, especially at the level of the old man of the Xue family, who has never even seen each other.

It was the old lady next to Old Man Xue, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, her eyes raised slightly, and after glancing at Qiao Nian quietly, she smiled slowly and said: "Listen to Xiaomin, it is the daughter of the Qiao family and his ex-wife." ”

"The youngest daughter of the Ji family?"

Qiao Nian still had a smile on the corner of his mouth, but he was obviously a little reluctant, standing beside Li Yao, he involuntarily leaned towards him, groping to hold his hand, or ......

Anything is good, as long as it can make her feel at ease, that kind of longing, like a desire for a life-saving straw, but I don't know why, obviously he is next to him, obviously he can touch it as soon as he stretches out his hand, but his hand is still empty.

Gradually, a lot of fine sweat oozed from her palms, which were densely stuck to her palms, making her extremely uncomfortable.

In front of everyone's eyes, she didn't even dare to move, the old man of the Xue family's eyes fell on her, his eyes were soft and loving, his eyebrows were slightly condensed, as if he was thinking about something, his eyes spread a little scrutiny, inadvertently, his eyes flashed, his mouth opened slightly, as if something came to his mouth, but he felt that it was inappropriate, so he didn't say anything.

I don t know why, qiao nian always felt that something was not quite right, except for the old man of the xue family, he always felt that there was a little disgust coming from somewhere, as if it was close at hand, but ......

And because of the mention of the old man of the Xue family, the eyes of everyone present were inadvertently projected onto Qiao Nian, some kind, some inadvertently, with a little mocking disdain.

After all, her mother Ji Lan is not very famous among the so-called daughters of wealthy families, she is young, and she has experienced a lot of things, from a certain point of view, she is actually more infamous than Ji Lan.

And Li Yao is a more outstanding and eye-catching son of heaven than Qiao Fusheng back then, in the eyes of everyone, Li Yao deserves to be with someone who is more worthy of him, regardless of origin, appearance, or reputation.

But Li Yao chose her, and now, she still has entangled love debts, and even hurt Li Yao because of this, but even so, Qiao Nian at this moment is still standing by his side as always.

With such an excellent person, even if she is as strong as her, there will always be times when she is not confident, not to mention the lack of confidence in front of Li Yao, which has been the case from beginning to end, has been for a long time, and has never changed.

Therefore, she will also panic, especially when everyone doubts and everyone looks sideways.

Qiao Nian was even a little desperate, but soon, a pair of warm hands held her slightly trembling hand tightly.

When he looked up at him, he was talking back to the old lady of the Xue family with a gentle smile: "You have a good memory, you are the one of the Ji family, Ji Lan, my mother-in-law." ”

He said it lightly, but Qiao Nian couldn't help but feel nervous, looked at him with blank eyes, and hesitated for a while before he smiled and said, "You...... We came here today to celebrate Mr. Xue's birthday, what do you always say about our own family? Hustle and bustle, huh? ”

Qiao Nian didn't mean to demolish Li Yao, but she had always been obedient, plus she had no contact with the Xue family, and it had been so many years, so she didn't have to bring everything to the fore.

What's more, there are some things that even she herself feels powerless, so there is no need to involve Li Yao, if she can, she still hopes to be safe and secure with him, and not to have so many things.

But I don't know why, Li Yao just didn't let it, and even, from the beginning, he came for these things.

The old man of the Xue family was silent, but he didn't say much, his eyes were connected, as if he was recalling something, but the old lady of the Xue family sitting next to him had slightly heavy eyebrows, and the smile that looked relatively gentle and loving at the corner of his mouth gradually became cold.

His eyes fell on Li Yao, he lazily raised the corners of his lips, and raised his tone slightly: "Before, the famous minister always said that you were the most sensible, but in fact, you rushed to the front every time you were gag, and after it was over, you had to pull the famous minister to train with you." Oh, speaking of which, this was a long time ago, and I always thought that you were so old now, and it was time to be steady, I see, I still don't know the sky is high and thick, and you are willful and reckless......"

The words came out of her mouth, and they were nothing. It's like an elder reprimanding and harshly reprimanding a disobedient junior, and she still has a smile on her face, saying that the reprimand and harsh punishment are even a bit serious.

But I don't know why, Qiao Nian is inexplicable and panicked.

Originally, I wanted to laugh and ignore it, but immediately after, the old lady of the Xue family pulled the topic to her: "It's your daughter-in-law who is sensible and obedient." ”

The corners of Qiao Nian's mouth were reluctantly tugged, and he hesitated for a while before he smiled slowly and agreed: "You praised ...... falsely."

However, the old lady of the Xue family didn't care about her words at all, and even before she finished speaking, she raised her hand directly and said: "There is a lot of uproar outside, and it is said that the second child of the Li family has taken a daughter-in-law who is as beautiful as a flower. ”

As he spoke, he read to Qiao: "Come, come to grandma's side, I'm also old, and my eyes are not very good, come over and let grandma take a good look at ......"

The smile on Qiao Nian's lips stiffened slightly, and she felt that Li Yao's hand holding her was slightly relaxed, so she suddenly clenched her backhand.

Li Yao remained as silent as ever, but when he held her hand, his thumb and fingertips fell on the back of her hand, rubbing inadvertently, as if to comfort her.

After the old lady of the Xue family finished speaking, Qiao Nian was still standing next to her, not even saying a word, looking at everyone with a cramped face, not knowing what to do at all.

Li Yao didn't care, quietly comforted her for a while, and then held her hand a little harder, and then smiled with a smile on his face and admitted: "Don't be weird, miss her very shy." As he spoke, he let go of the hand he was holding, covered her shoulders naturally, patted her gently, and then hugged Qiao Nian and walked over naturally: "It's also that I don't often take her out, I'm young and timid, where have I ever seen this kind of scene." ”

While speaking, the two of them had already walked up to the old lady of the Xue family.

took her hand and led it to Mrs. Xue, smiling gently, without any emotion: "Old lady, don't be weird." ”

The old lady of the Xue family: "It's not strange to say anything, when I am at the age of your old chief, I don't want to think about anything else, I just want you juniors to come back from time to time to talk to us and so on, I'm very happy." ”

Li Yao raised his lips and smiled, but did not answer.

Tang Qian and Li Zi didn't know where to go.

came over to say hello, and saw that Li Yao was acting as a demon, so he quickly found a quiet place to hide, Xue Mingchen wanted to hide more than anyone else, but he couldn't avoid it no matter what.

Originally, Xue Mingchen didn't quite understand what Li Yao wanted to do, but he had witnessed the back and forth just now, and he couldn't pretend to be confused.

It's just that I pity Qiao Nian, who is cautious and silent, I know at a glance that I was scared by Li Yao, maybe I won't say anything in front of people, and after I go back, I guess there will be some trouble.

However, the matter has been pushed to this point by Li Yao, if Xue Mingchen doesn't help him......

It's just that this thought only flashed in his mind.

The conditions are so attractive, how can you not help!

Xue Mingchen was originally standing next to the old man and the old lady of their family, but Li Yao pulled Qiao Nian over, and he naturally gave up his position.

In addition, everyone's attention is now on Li Yao and Qiao Nian, he just pulled out, raised his eyes and looked around, his eyes fell on one place, his brows twisted involuntarily, and he turned his head to look away, just when a servant passed by with a dinner plate and opened his mouth to inform.

The servant immediately walked up to him and took him by the hand respectfully.

Xue Mingchen leaned a little closer to him and said in a low voice: "The main banquet will start soon, go and ask the eldest lady, what are you still rubbing outside!" There are so many guests at home, and you don't help to say hello? ”

Servant: "I'll go and ask for it." ”

Xue Mingchen is the master, the people of the Xue family, he can say anything, and calling the servants over is just to pass on a word, it doesn't matter how you say it, the key is to bring the word.

Li Yao didn't notify anyone before he came, and even Xue Mingchen didn't know that he was the person the Li family was coming after he arrived, and since Xue Yi was terminated by Li Yao, it was rare to see him in person, so it was naturally impossible to know.

The most important thing is that Song Yuan also came.

Song Yuan and Xue Yi, because of Li Yao's affairs, have always been a little incompatible, although the two families are relatives, they can not meet each other on weekdays.

However, when she came in, Song Yuan suddenly returned to China, and she made such a big fanfare, which naturally made Xue Yi very unhappy, but this time it was the birthday of their old man, and Xue Yi would definitely see her even if she didn't want to.

However, Xue Yi didn't get Li Yao, and Song Yuan didn't get much better, neither of them got Qiao Nian on the left and right, and Song Yuan tossed so many things for Li Yao at the beginning......

Now that the two of them are like glue, even if Xue Yi can't do anything about Qiao Nian, it's still okay to disgust Song Yuan with Qiao Nian's matter.

Song Yuan originally came back from out of town, and she was a little late, so as soon as she entered the door of Xue's house, she didn't block Xue Yi who came out of the single-family villa where she lived......
