If Steward Fu hadn't come to cause trouble today, she wouldn't have minded pouring Steward Fu a glass of water. After all, respecting the elderly and cherishing the young was a virtue, but since she knew that Steward Fu had come with ill intentions, why did she have to suffer from her rush to curry favor with her?
Aunt Fu was once again annoyed by Xia Chuyi's rudeness. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Xia Chuyi say to Xia Chiangcheng: "At least, in name, I'm still a young mistress whose Chi Family has yet to pass. Could it be that Chi Family has this kind of rule?"
Master was pouring tea for the servants?
Even though Xia Chuyi didn't directly say it, everyone present could tell.
Xia Chiangcheng was choked by Xia Chuyi's words, and was so angry that he couldn't say anything.
Aunt Fu, on the other hand, had originally wanted to flare up, but upon hearing Xia Chuyi's words, she couldn't help but think highly of her.
Compared to Xia Chiangcheng, who was a flattering person who could not show his face, Xia Chuyi, on the other hand, had some dignity due to the passing of the Old Master's Xia Family.
"Look at you, the child is sick. Steward Fu isn't someone who cares about such a small matter." Seeing that Xia Chiangcheng was defeated, Qiao Huishan quickly went out to smooth things over. She gestured for Xia Ruotong to pour some water for Aunt Fu and said with a smile, "This is all my fault. I wanted to get Chuyi something to eat. I've neglected Steward Fu. "
"Madam Xia is serious." Steward Fu spoke with a reserved tone.
"Madam Xia?" My mother died in childbirth when she was giving birth to me. This is my aunt by blood, not Lady Xia, but I can't blame you. It's probably because my aunt and my mother look too much like each other.
Xia Chuyi deliberately emphasized the word "aunt."
"…" Steward Fu.
How much do they resemble each other so that her husband can even recognize his own wife wrongly? Besides, she hadn't heard that Qiao Huishan had a twin sister? I heard that Xia Ruotong and Xia Chuyi are twin sisters, but they don't look that much like each other!
Also, that "aunt or something" …
The look in Steward Fu's eyes changed when she saw Qiao Huishan and Xia Chiangcheng...
"…" Xia Chiangcheng gasped for breath. This unfilial daughter of his!
The smile on Qiao Huishan's face froze!
She hated it when people talked about Lady Xia's identity the most in her life. Xia Chuyi's words accurately pierced her fatal spots. It was even worse than slapping her a hundred times in public!
She looked at Xia Chuyi's opening and closing mouth. She really wanted to go up and pluck out the teeth in her mouth before tearing her mouth apart. Let's see how she goes on with her sharp tongue!
"Aunt, don't blame yourself. I've heard that you've been keeping watch over me these past few days. It's rare for Lady Li to be lacking someone, how can I let you delay your business for such a small matter like this and ruin your mood." Xia Chuyi acted as if she didn't notice the strange atmosphere in the room, smiling as she spoke. It was obviously full of sarcasm, yet she forced her to say some words that were full of sincerity.
She had seen and heard many of these underhanded tactics before, and she knew how to use them now.
"You …" Qiao Huishan didn't expect Xia Chuyi to hear about her phone call with Madam Li and expose it in front of so many people. She was so angry that her face turned green and white, but she still forced a smile on her face.
When did this Xia Chuyi become so talkative?
Was this kind of fake smile really something that the usually brainless Xia Chuyi could do?
"Steward Fu, drink some water." Xia Ruotong respectfully poured a cup of water for Aunt Fu, trying to divert Steward Fu's attention.
Aunt Fu took it politely and put it on the table. She didn't drink it, but looked at Xia Ruotong carefully.
Xia Ruotong smiled shyly and then turned to Xia Chuyi, "Sister, I know you haven't been feeling well these days, and you're in a bad mood as well. But, aren't my mom and I always accompanying you in the hospital?" You have to get better quickly! "
"Yes." Xia Chuyi nodded. "The two of you have been accompanying me, but your avatar has gone to see a show, meet a master designer, go watch a movie, and play mahjong at Mrs. Li's place."
"…" Xia Ruotong wanted nothing more than to bite off her own tongue. Even Qiao Huishan, who was standing at the side, had an extremely unsightly expression on her face.
If she knew that someone from the Chi Family would come, she wouldn't have left the hospital today no matter what.
But now, she and her daughter had been walking in circles around Xia Chuyi, who had ordered them to follow her. Now, she and her daughter had been walking around Xia Chuyi's order, and now, Xia Chuyi had said something back to them. Not only were the hardships of the past few days wasted, she even made a negative impression in front of Xia Chiangcheng and Steward Fu.
"Xia Chuyi, why are you blaming others so strangely? Why is it that no one wants to do anything to surround you? " Seeing that Xia Ruotong was about to cry, Chen Yang immediately assumed the posture of a courtesan and shouted, "I'm just taking Ruotong to see a show, meet a master designer, and go to the movies. What's it got to do with you? "Who would be watching over you in the hospital every day if they had nothing to do after eating their fill?!"
Well said!
Xia Chuyi could not help but applaud Chen Yang's words in her heart!
With Chen Yang's words, Qiao Huishan and Xia Ruotong were at a loss for words. She glanced at Xia Chiangcheng and saw that Xia Chiangcheng was glaring at Qiao Huishan with an ugly expression.
Qiao Huishan, on the other hand, did not dare to speak up for herself, afraid that her words would become worse.
"Ah, Young Master Chen, right now we are dealing with the household affairs of Xia Family, you are an outsider, what are you shouting and pointing at nothing? "Xia Ruotong is really stupid. You guys don't even have a proper name, why did I bring you here?" Xia Chuyi's tone was somewhat helpless, as if her family had been humiliated.
Sure enough, after being warned by Xia Chuyi, Xia Chiangcheng's expression turned even uglier.
This Qiao Huishan and Xia Ruotong usually did things appropriately, so why were they in such a bad mood today?
"You woman! You... "You …" Chen Yang never imagined that Xia Chuyi would dare to make noise with him in front of so many people. It was as if an egg had been stuffed into his throat, causing him to almost suffocate to death.
"Sister, how can you say that, he is Chen Yang! "Then you've always …" Xia Ruotong was also infuriated by Xia Chuyi. She spoke without thinking!
However, before she could finish, Xia Chiangcheng interrupted her with an angry roar, "Shut up!"
Even if Xia Ruotong didn't say anything about Xia Chuyi's infatuation for Chen Yang, everyone present was clear about it. However, they understood in their hearts that they still had to pretend not to know about it, let alone expose it in front of Steward Fu. This was equivalent to slapping the two families' faces in front of Steward Fu!
Sure enough, what Xia Ruotong said caused Steward Fu's expression to become unsightly as well.
