Chapter 24: Are You the Daughter-in-law Who Brother Ye Marryed?
Are you the daughter-in-law that Brother Ye married? The atmosphere of mutual speculation was opened by a charming voice, and it was Simon Mei who was nestled in the sofa.
The woman looked to be twenty-three or fourteen years old, wrapped in luxury goods that made her look like a model on the catwalk. This may be a symbol of the family's strength, but in Jodika's view, too much designer packaging has made her lose the youthful vitality she should have at this age. The whole person is bound by vanity, and it doesn't seem cute at all.
But looking back at yourself, what is the essential difference between yourself and that girl?
At about the same age, what the other party is wrapped in real is the coat of luxury. And myself, it is......
"Isn't it pretty!" Simon Mei's voice came again, mixed with unceremonious criticism of Jodika. "Your figure is not as good as mine, your height is not as tall as mine, your face is not as beautiful as mine, and you are not very good where you should be! How could Brother Night fall in love with you! Gee! She stretched out her hand and pointed to Chojka's dress: "Look, what age is it now, and there are still people who use this kind of mink shawl, are you in your thirties or in your forties?" Or is it already in his fifties? I'm embarrassed to put such an old-fashioned thing on my body! ”
Jojica lowered her head, looked at the clothes that had been degraded by the other party to worthless, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart.
The winter in Shanghai was not particularly cold, and she just planned to walk around her yard, so she picked out a long cheongsam with dark flowers on a blue background from the cabinet. The cheongsam was short-sleeved, and she pulled a pure white shawl and put it on the outside.
Jojka has always liked cheongsam, especially walking on the streets of Shanghai in a cheongsam, which feels classical and beautiful.
Although it may seem a little out of tune in such an all-European manor, she always believes that when Western classical feelings are combined with Chinese culture, there is an indescribable charm. And in order to match this charm, she also specially inserted a hosta into the bun that was pulled up.
Could it be that she is really old? This dress is said to be an aunt in her fifties, but why does she feel delicate and elegant no matter how she looks at it?
Then he looked at Ximenyu, the boy who had not said a word since she came in, and looked at himself with a smile at this time. But he just laughed, but he didn't say hello or stop his sister's behavior. It seems that she is going to see her jokes, or rather, she wants to test whether she is qualified to be the young lady of the Baili family.
But...... Jodika was amused.
If this kind of test is done by Bailiye's mother or elders, she gladly accepts it, because the other party has that qualification. But what does that count as now? She got married, and she had to pass the so-called friend? Which house's rules!
"Did I say you're dumb?" The voice became sharper and sharper every time, "Don't think that if you marry Brother Ye, you can step into a wealthy family with both feet, and you can be so arrogant that you can't even say anything!" Aren't you the daughter of a bankrupt business? I heard that I was dumped by my fiancé, and I made a big fuss at someone's wedding! But why did he become Brother Ye's wife again in a blink of an eye? What the hell is this woman up to? ”
Ximenmei was obviously very angry and angry, her pretty little face was flushed, she was sitting on the sofa, and she stood up as she spoke. A pair of stiletto heels stepped on the floral sofa so vividly, and it was shocking to see Jodika, I was really afraid that if she pushed a little harder, the stiletto heels would crush the sofa and bury both of her feet in it.
But she still didn't know what to say to the woman, and her accusations were pale to Jodika. The so-called daughter of a bankrupt company, the so-called abandoned by her fiancé, these things have long been unable to hit her heart that is being repaired day by day. The reason why those former heart-rending lungs still exist is because she wants to keep them to remind herself that there are still grudges, and there are unfinished beams that can't be let go!
"You'd better come down first!" After a while, he threw out such a sentence. "Although I like this sofa very much, it's a trivial thing to break down, and I'm afraid it will hurt your feet."
Jodika's words were so calm, as if the accusation given by Simon Mei before was to punch the cotton hard, and it didn't get the expected effect at all.
The woman who was still standing on the sofa didn't know how to answer to her for a while, facing such an opponent who was almost an oil and salt method, and the rich lady who had never suffered a loss since she was a child was completely speechless.
Ximenyu laughed out loud, then shook his head lightly and gave Qiao Ka a thumbs up, and then stretched out his other hand to pull his sister to sit down.
Ximenmei came back to her senses at this time, shook her arm and broke away from her brother's hand, and then said with great dissatisfaction:
"What are you laughing at? Are you my brother or her brother? Didn't you see your sister being bullied by a decent family? ”
Ximenyu raised his eyebrows:
"Really?" Then he pointed at Chojka and said with a smile: "But what I see is that you have been bullying people, from beginning to end, this young lady of the Baili family only said one word, and she is still concerned about your safety." ”
"You-" Ximenmei didn't expect her brother to say such a thing, and she was a little stunned for a while. Look at him and then at her, suddenly not knowing what else to say.
She originally came to Pati Manor with a full stomach full of anger, because of the friendship between the Simon family and the Baili family, she was fortunate to grow up with Baili Ye. Since she was five years old, she thought that she must be the bride of Baili Night when she grew up, and she liked him for a reason, and everything about growing up was her reason.
The girl's careful thinking can't be hidden, and everyone who has grown up together knows her concern for Baili Night, and she is also very optimistic about this kind of concern.
Baili, Ximen, Huangfu, Yuwen, the four major families in the Chinese region, if there is a marriage incident among them, it is really a normal thing. Even in their opinion, Baili Ye will eventually marry Ximen Mei. Whether he likes it or not, for the sake of the empire, a marriage without love is nothing. What's more, from childhood to adulthood, although Bailiye did not show special kindness to Ximenmei, it was not bad. At least when a few people traveled together, as the only woman, he still took good care of her.
It's just that no one expected that this marriage, which everyone is optimistic about, will suffer two of the most painful blows in a row after they all grow up.
One of them is Bailiye's promise to Li Xiaomu, and the second, and the most fatal, is that now Bailiye actually held such a grand wedding without notifying them.
When they knew that Baili Ye had agreed to Li Xiaomu's marriage contract, Ximen Mei also had a trouble. But that time, she didn't have the courage to rush directly to Baili's house to toss, because Li Xiaomu was recognized as the young lady of Baili's family since she was a child, and she was always shorter in momentum compared to others.
But this time it's different! Jodika, obviously the daughter of a bankrupt company, has a marriage contract with someone else! The most important thing is that Baili Ye didn't know this person before!
Ximenmei thinks that this is an unexpected flash marriage, and it is a decision made by Baili Ye who doesn't know what medicine she has taken wrong. So she can come to this Pati Manor to make trouble, and by the way, challenge the new daughter-in-law, it's best to run away from her! People who haven't known each other for a long time don't have too deep feelings for Baili Ye if they want to come, maybe after such a toss, the two of them will break up.
Of course, with the power and financial resources of the Simon family, she Simon Mei will never marry a man who is married for the second time. But if that person is a hundred miles of night, it is completely outside the scope of this "absolute".
Yes, no matter how powerful the Simon family is, it is far stronger than the Baili Empire.
And the reason why they were able to have a friendship with Baili Ye from childhood to adulthood was because their own enterprises were not able to reach the height of the Baili Consortium with the efforts of their ancestors, but they could be regarded as ten thousand people under one person.
Therefore, Baili Ye is Ximenmei's best husband, not only because she likes him, but also because the Ximen family also likes and covets the Baili family.
But Baili Ye actually got married...... This news caught Ximenmei, who had always focused her attention and main target on Li Xiaomu, by surprise.
"The night is busy, and I haven't come home yet." Chodika's voice drifted faintly again, as if with a cool air, and suddenly cooled the irritable mood hidden in the living room that was warmed by the fireplace. "Listen to Steward Xu, you are his good friends. I'm sorry I don't recognize you. But it doesn't matter, from now on we will know each other. I've already asked my servants to make tea, so wait a minute. ”
is not salty or light, and there is an absolute disregard for Simon Mei's accusations, so that no matter how many harsh words the woman has, she can't say it again at this time.
The tea of the subordinate was brought quickly, and Ximen Yu took a sip of it, and then praised:
"The dragon well before the Ming Dynasty, although it was last year, is still very fragrant. I don't know if Mrs. Sister-in-law also likes to drink tea, when this year's new tea comes down, I will give you a few packs. ”
She shook her head helplessly:
"My name is Chodika, you can call me by my name, or call me sister-in-law if you are a few years older. Words like Mrs. Sister-in-law, don't use them again. I'm glad to add a touch of antiquity to my life, but it's still a bit out of place. Not so good! ”
As she spoke, she walked over to another couch opposite and sat down. The words were raised lightly, as if two old friends who had known each other for many years were chatting, completely ignoring the tense atmosphere brought by Ximen Mei.
Miss Jiao finally couldn't sit down, she wasn't in such a good mood to stay here and drink tea, so she stood up angrily, pointed at Jojica and threw another sentence:
"It's just a sinister gold worshipper! Brother Night will get tired of you sooner or later! Just wait! ”
After saying that, he picked up Ximenyu and was about to go out.
It's just that Xu De took a step to the side, and the three of them looked at each other, and they heard Xu De say-
