Chapter 30 You don't even have chairs, do you?
Passing through the screen, Jin Zhixing stood in front of everyone.

At that moment, the voices in the hall disappeared.

Shu Yao followed Jin Zhixing's pace and walked towards the main table in the hall.

Finally, they stopped in front of an elderly man sitting in the center of the main table.

According to what the servant said just now, Shu Yao guessed that this should be the old lady in the servant's mouth.

"Grandma." Jin Zhixing's tone was a little respectful.

The old lady was wearing a plain cheongsam, and her already gray hair was curled up neatly and coiled high, extremely elegant.

But the eyes full of wind and frost are extremely sharp, which makes people feel awe of them.

Suddenly, Shu Yao felt the old lady's eyes fall on her.

So Shu Yao imitated what Jin Zhixing called out, "Grandma."

The old lady nodded slightly, but her eyes fell on the hands that the two were holding each other.

Like a silenced hall, everyone's eyeballs became active, constantly moving between the main tables.

"Grandma." Jin Zhixing broke the silence first, "This is my wife, Shu Yao."

Jin Zhixing's voice was not too loud, but it was enough for everyone in the hall to hear what he said.

"Understood, let's sit down first." The old lady looked normal, but didn't say anything, then picked up the chopsticks at the side and continued, "However, there are not enough chairs at the dining table."

Shu Yao glanced at the empty chair on the dining table.

"It's ok."

Hearing Shu Yao speak, the people at the main table all looked at her.

With some curiosity, I want to know what Shu Yao will say next.

Whether to endure it obediently, or to resist desperately.

I saw that Shu Yao looked relaxed, and looked at the old lady with a smile, "I see that there is still space on the table, so I will add another chair."

The servants didn't dare to act without the old lady's instructions.

Shu Yao naturally knew this too, but in this situation, she didn't intend to have such self-knowledge.

Then he continued to speak:

"Our house is so big, shouldn't we not even have a chair?"

A simple rhetorical question.

If the old lady still wanted to embarrass her, she could only refuse to let her sit on the grounds that there was no chair.

But the huge main house can't even take out a chair now, which is equivalent to slapping the main family in the face in front of other relatives.

Sure enough, the old lady paused unexpectedly, tilted her head and signaled to the servant, her voice was full of anger, "Go get a chair."

After receiving the order, the servant hurriedly ran to get the chair.

The chair didn't arrive so fast for a while, Jin Zhixing took Shu Yao's hand instead, "Are you tired? Sit down first."

Shu Yao looked at Shang Jin Zhixing, received the message, and sat down with peace of mind.

Completely ignoring the peeping eyes of other people on the table.

After a while, the servant delivered the chair.

Jin Zhixing took the chair and sat beside Shu Yao.

After everyone was seated, other people began to pick up chopsticks after the old lady moved them.

The first rule of etiquette at the Jin family's dinner table is not to speak when eating.

Jin Zhixing did some homework for her before coming here, so Shu Yao will try to avoid minefields as much as possible.

After a meal, everyone ate very quietly.

There was only the sound of tableware and chopsticks colliding slightly from time to time.

According to the rules of previous years, after dinner, they would gather and chat in pavilions and pavilions.

Shu Yao took Jin Zhixing's arm and followed the others to go there.
