Chapter 114: Eat the food in your own bowl
Now, she deliberately picked everyone's contradictions on the table, firstly, perhaps because she couldn't get used to Mrs. Li's pride just now, and deliberately wanted to find some thorns to extinguish her prestige, and on the other hand, I am afraid that she also wanted to borrow Yan Qingruo's hand to swing Xiao Rou'er.
Yan Qingruo couldn't help but feel sorry for Yan Zhixin's smart and clever little military advisor, she didn't expect that she was smart all her life, but she was cheated by her own family, and she didn't know that she was cheated.
"Huh, huh?"
Yan Qingruo smiled noncommittally, but she thought in her heart, what is the identity of this woman? Is it Xiao Rouer's sister? But it's not right, although Xiao Rouer is bad, but she has the appearance of a lady, the woman in front of her, although she is beautiful, she can even be said to be very charming, but she is an Internet celebrity face, and not only does not have half a book fragrance on her body, but has a strong smell of wind and dust, how to say it, her appearance makes Yan Qingruo think of Zhang Rou when she was young.
So in Yan Qingruo's heart, she can basically be sure that the woman in front of her is either Xiao Rou'er's young stepmother, or Xiao Rou'er's junior raised outside.
But no matter what her identity is, Yan Qingruo really doesn't like her, and she is not convinced that she wants to kill two birds with one stone to make Mrs. Li hate Xiao Rouer and herself at the same time.
So, Yan Qingruo smiled sensibly and added another question: "Is Xiao Rou'er your sister?" I see you two sisters look alike. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present fell silent, and an awkward atmosphere permeated the entire banquet for a while.
Yan Qingruo's gaze swept around, and then pretended to be innocent and asked, "What?" What am I saying wrong? ”
After all, the woman just now was a person who came down from the Fengyue Field, and she had seen any scenes, so she immediately grabbed the arm of the man next to her with a smile, shook it twice and said coquettishly: "Old Xiao, you see that Miss Yan is very good at talking, and she praises me for being young in a different way." ”
After speaking, he smiled flatteringly at Yan Qingruo.
Yan Qingruo heard the voice of Mrs. Li, who was forced to leave her three positions, and sneered.
"Poof......
Gu Mingyuan, who was immersed in the soup, directly squirted out the soup that had just been drunk in his mouth because of the woman's actions and words just now. While cleaning up the mess in front of him, he couldn't help but say sorry to the people present.
The corners of Yan Qingruo's mouth hooked up an arc, and she immediately said in surprise: "Old Xiao? I don't know what the relationship between this young lady and Xiao Rouer is......"
"She's your good sister's aunt, Mrs. Xiao."
At this time, Gu Mingyuan, who has always been known as a scandal insulator and a super invincible low EQ, spoke, and after speaking, he squeezed his eyebrows at Yan Qingruo, saying that the news of sarcasm about her was not as good as his own scandal insulator.
But the information content in his sentence is too much, even if he said that the woman was Mrs. Xiao, but how did he and Xiao Rouer become that kind of good sisters?
This man's EQ is really not ordinarily low, no wonder Yan Zhixin looks down on him, no matter how he says that he is also the queen of Jiangcheng's famous family, even if Yan Zhixin likes Chu Mu no matter how much he likes, but he shouldn't have an extra spare tire, Yan Qingruo is very strange, this Gu Mingyuan is not even qualified to lift shoes for Yan Zhixin now, it seems that the problem is really completely out of him.
"Ahem, it turned out to be Mrs. Xiao, it's really disrespectful, I saw that you were so young and beautiful, I thought you were Xiao Rou'er's sister. But it's also to blame that I'm usually too busy and don't have much intersection with Xiao Rou'er, so I only meet once or twice when she and my sister have a party, so I am a little vague about her appearance, and even misunderstand that you look alike, and ask Mrs. Xiao to forgive me for my gaffes. ”
Yan Qingruo can only use this method to clear up her relationship with Xiao Rou'er, otherwise she is afraid that she will be killed by the gaze of Mrs. Li next to her.
"Hehe, so that's the case, Miss Yan can speak well, I see you, in fact, you are no worse than your sister."
Come on, this woman is really addicted to provoking, she has just finished provoking her relationship with the Li family, and now she has begun to escalate the contradiction between herself and Yan Zhixin, and even accidentally provoked the relationship between herself and the Gu family, such a woman makes Yan Qingruo really want to give her the middle finger directly and despise her at one time.
"Hehe, where is Mrs. Xiao, my sister is naturally the most famous celebrity in Jiangcheng, if she is a flower, what about me, at most, it is just a foil next to the flower, of course, I think that flowers and green leaves are not so important, after all, our specialties and hobbies are different."
Yan Qingruo saw that Mrs. Xiao's face became more and more ugly, and her heart was refreshed, but she knew that it was not enough, For such a woman, it is far from enough to just guard and guard, you give her a little lesson, so that she will not dare to provoke you in the future.
"Also, please let me see that Mrs. Xiao is such a beautiful person and generous, and the relationship with Xiao Rouer must be very harmonious, I still envy your family, there are two beautiful roses."
Mrs. Xiao's face was a little ugly in an instant, for a competitive and mean-faced woman like her, no matter where she went, she must be the brightest star, if others really compared her with someone, her heart was very unhappy.
Beneath the ornate gold-trimmed tablecloth, Madame Shaw's fists clenched tightly. In her heart, she has always looked down on Xiao Rouer's cheap girl, she is a debt collector like her dead mother.
Why is that little debt collector born to an old debt collector on a par with her?
Yan Qingruo saw that Mrs. Xiao's face had changed from sunny to cloudy just now and had turned into a storm, so she added another handful of firewood: "When my sister and Xiao Rouer had a party before, I also heard it on the side, she praised you, saying that you are young and can do it, although you are from a poor family, and your education is not high, but you can serve her father very properly, and she also said that the Xiao family and her can have today, it is all thanks to you." ”
Yan Qingruo's words were thorny, and they were thorns that everyone could hear, and the thorns pierced Mrs. Xiao's headache one by one.
She remembered that many years ago, the Xiao family was actually one of the top families in Jiangcheng, but then she didn't know why, a series of changes occurred in the family, which led to the violent decline of the Xiao family, so that now they are still surviving.
Yan Qingruo guessed that the factor that caused the Xiao family to fuse was probably related to the lady Xiao in front of her, who was not a good child.
Sure enough, her conjecture was confirmed, and it could be seen from Mrs. Xiao's instantly pale face and the lowered head of the Xiao family next to her that she was not wrong.
Mrs. Xiao uncomfortably picked up the wine glass in front of her, and raised her glass to take a sip to hide her weakness at the moment.
It took her a long time before she came back to her senses and said: "Hehe, I didn't expect Xiao Rouer to praise me so much in front of outsiders, which makes me really embarrassed, old Xiao, you see how sensible our daughter is." ”
Saying that, she hugged the old Xiao in her mouth next to her, and the posture was particularly ambiguous, Yan Qingruo saw that her cleavage, which was already very deep, became even more turbulent because of the squeezing of the arm on her chest tightly, and Yan Qingruo herself was a little bloody.
This trick is high, it's really high, no wonder this old Xiao can't do without this woman, although she looks like a troublemaker.
But this time the young Mrs. Xiao made a mistake, the old Mr. Xiao, who had a serious face just now, unexpectedly did not eat him, he directly gave his young lady a warning look, and then withdrew his hand.
Now facing extreme embarrassment, Mrs. Xiao lost the position, but she did not lose her momentum, she withdrew a flattering smile on her face, smiled at everyone, and then lowered her head to eat the dishes in her bowl.
Let's be honest now, Yan Qingruo thought, if she had eaten her own food so honestly from the beginning, maybe there would be no next thing, but no, she wanted to do it.
Yan Qingruo knew that the reason why she picked herself was to pick a soft persimmon to pinch, because during this banquet, those who were chewing the tongue of the Yan family's father and daughter just now, Yan Qingruo didn't react at all, just lowered her head and silently ate the vegetables in her bowl. Perhaps this was the reason that made her think that Yan Qingruo was an honest person and easy to bully, so she picked on her.
"Come on, let's eat and drink."
At this time, Mr. Xiao, who had just given himself a look at his young wife's face, raised his wine glass and beckoned everyone to continue. Maybe it's because I realized that I just lost my temper and that my young wife who likes to cause trouble ruined the atmosphere of the whole banquet, so I'm embarrassed to be alone.
"Come on, Mr. Xiao, I'll have a toast with you."
Gu Mingyuan stood up with a wine glass at this time, walked in front of Mr. Xiao, raised his wine glass and toasted him. Mr. Xiao, who had been sitting on the cold bench for several years, was particularly flattered by Gu Mingyuan's arrival, and he hurriedly stood up and clinked glasses with the most potential juniors in the entire Jiangcheng in the business world, except for Chu.
"Thank you Mr. Gu for your love, my old Xiao will accompany you today without getting drunk and not returning!"
Mr. Xiao seemed to be excited all of a sudden, Gu Mingyuan took Mr. Xiao's shoulders and said to him with a smile: "Mr. Xiao, what you said should be that you love me as a junior, I heard my father say that Mr. Xiao is righteous in the early years, and now I see that it really deserves its reputation!" ”
Hearing the old Mr. Xiao who praised himself like this, he couldn't help himself for a while, and even his eyes were a little red, he knew that there were many powerful people now, since the fall of the Xiao family, in the celebrity circle of Jiangcheng, there was no one who wanted to make friends with him, although he still participated in this banquet every year, but he knew in his heart that in fact, there were few people who really took him seriously.
