Chapter 1022 The Dinner Party at the Chu Mansion ([-])

It's hard to get over the water, if you can't count what you say, don't say it's a joke of the servants of the Chu family, I'm afraid that I will lose my prestige overnight.Rao is that in the future she will still bear the title of the second wife of the Chu family, I am afraid that she will also be talked about.

In desperation, Mrs. Liu had no choice but to focus all her attention on the maid who had made a mistake, but because Chu Xixi was standing aside, Mrs. Liu was embarrassed to beat her, so she just gestured to scare the girl symbolically.

"Ma'am, forgive me, I know I was wrong, and I don't dare to do it anymore. Huh——" The little maid was about fifteen or sixteen years old, short and thin, with faint scars visible on her hands. Apparently it was left a long time ago.

Chu Xixi had also stayed in the country, so she could tell that this girl was also from a poor family, otherwise how could she have entered the Chu Mansion and signed the contract.Hearing the girl weeping in a low voice, Chu Xixi couldn't help feeling a little pity. Seeing Mrs. Liu's rather annoyed appearance, she asked, "Aunt Liu, what did this servant girl do to call Aunt Liu so frightened? Angry? Could it be that your hands and feet are not clean?"

I still remember that Liu Shi satirized Chu Xixi like this, the country girl has bad habits, and her hands and feet are not clean.Now Mrs. Liu still uses such an excuse to beat the maid at home, not to mention Chu Taiping, even the old lady can't stand it.This Mrs. Liu is really too much.

"Xixi, you don't know something. This maid is so confused that she burned my hand when she was pouring tea. Today is your big sister Lian'er's big day. You shouldn't get wet, but this will ruin your ancestor's life." Rules, if you don’t teach them a lesson, won’t the world be turned upside down in the future?”

Mrs. Liu couldn't help but speak loudly. Obviously, Mrs. Liu was really angry at this time, for fear that there were not enough people outside who were looking forward to it.

"Aunt Liu, the servant girl did something wrong, just say a few words. Why bother with them. You are the second wife of the Chu family. If you have to ask about such trivial matters, don't you want outsiders to laugh at us? Is there no one in the house?"

Chu Xixi exaggerated Liu's status and spoke soft words to make Liu happy.

Sure enough, after hearing this sentence, Liu's expression softened a little, and then he threw the feather duster in his hand on the ground, but still said with a proud look in front of the maid: "This time, Miss San is speaking for you. Let me let you go this time for now. Be more careful next time, if you do it again, it will not be the case now. Do you remember?"

The maid nodded quickly, for fear that Mrs. Liu would regret it if she was too late.Seeing Mrs. Liu leading Chu Xixi into the main hall of the small courtyard, the maid slowly raised her head, looking thoughtfully at Chu Xixi's leaving back.

"Xixi didn't come here this time just to see me!"

As soon as he entered the room, Mrs. Liu couldn't help asking.

Chu Taiping had ordered Chu Xixi to come here before the dinner to give Liu an explanation.Now that Chu Xixi is here, it must be because of today's matter!
"Auntie is worrying too much. Xixi really just came to see Auntie, and show her something by the way."

Chu Xixi said, taking out the jade pendant that Master Liu gave today as a gift from his bosom, and playing with it in his hands.

"Auntie, this is what Eldest Sister gave me as a gift when I helped Eldest Sister find a bracelet in the garden today. How about you take a look? I really envy Eldest Sister, Xixi is very envious of anything that I take out casually."

Chu Xixi seemingly unintentionally placed the jade pendant where Mrs. Liu could see it clearly.

This jade pendant is of great value, and Mrs. Liu is also someone who has seen good things, so she can tell the value of this jade pendant at a glance, but I heard that this jade pendant was a gift from Chu Yurou.I feel quite uncomfortable.

They are both young ladies of the Chu family, so why can Chu Yurou reward such good things at will, but Chu Manlian can only marry into the Liu family?

Thinking of this, Liu's heart felt slightly uncomfortable.It seems that the feeling of being used by others flooded the whole consciousness by the way, and then he still put on an unsure appearance, looked at Chu Xixi and said with a smile: "Oh, Xixi is really likable, even that child Yurou can give you this Such a good thing."

Hearing that there was something in Liu's words, Chu Xixi sneered in her heart.I'm afraid that at this time Liu's heart must be like tumbling boiling water, one after another.

"Auntie was joking. It's all because of Elder Sister's extravagant spending. You see, this piece of jade is bright in color, finely carved, and slightly warm in the hand. It is really a good thing. I heard that these things were sent by the Liu family. Elder Sister. I heard that Sister Lian'er also received a gift from the Liu family. Xixi wanted to come over and ask if Sister Lian'er also has this jade pendant. If so, Xixi is willing to buy it with a lot of money. Mother is weak If you can have this kind of jade pendant on your body, you will definitely benefit endlessly."

Chu Xixi's attitude is sincere, like a junior who came here sincerely to seek treasure.

It's just that Chu Xixi's eyes kept paying attention to the changes in Liu Shi's expression.Hearing that these things were given to Chu Yurou by the Liu family, Liu's face turned cold for a moment, especially when Chu Xixi finally asked if Chu Manlian had the same jade pendant, obviously putting Chu Manlian and Chu Yurou on the same level, but Now if Chu Manlian can't produce a jade pendant of this quality, I'm afraid she will be laughed at.

"Of course, Lian'er has had some problems with slightly icy hands and feet since she was a child, and it's especially difficult in winter. Fortunately, the Liu family sent this kind of warm jade pendant. I saw that it was the size of a purse, so I polished it. Hang tassels and make accessories for your sister Lian Er. It can also be used to warm your hands in winter."

Liu casually admitted that Chu Manlian also had them, and inadvertently reminded Chu Xixi that Chu Manlian's jade pendant was the size of a purse, and was much more luxurious than the small jade pendant in her hand.Hanging it on your body, if you ask about it in the future, you can say that you lost it or forgot it, which is really an excuse for convenience.

"Oh, it turns out that Sister Lian'er still has such problems. It's really hard. I thought I could be filial to my mother, but now it seems that I have to find another way. By the way, Auntie, I will see my brother off today. , when Mr. Liu saw my elder brother, Mr. Pianpian, he admired him very much and gave him a valuable calligraphy and painting. I heard that it was handed down by the ancestors of the Liu family. It's a good thing, Sister Lian'er married into the Liu family, she will be rich and prosperous in the future!"

Chu Xixi put away the jade pendant, as if he had inadvertently told about the gift from Master Liu today.

As for what Mr. Liu gave Chu Yeshuang, it doesn't matter right now. The important thing is that Mrs. Liu's eyes widened immediately after hearing what Chu Xixi said, obviously extremely angry.

This Mrs. Liu is jealous, the young master of the Liu family loves Chu Yurou, and sent many things there. Mrs. Liu once had a lot of cold talk with Butler Liu in the garden, and now the Liu family is giving such expensive things to Chu Yeshuang again, obviously It's because he doesn't take his daughter-in-law's mother seriously.Just send some dowry gifts?What does the Liu family mean?

Suddenly thinking of today, Liu looked at Chu Xixi suspiciously, as if he was exploring something.In the end, he could only grunt, as if he regretted his original remorse.

"Why is Auntie doing this? Could it be that she is reluctant to part with Sister Lian'er? It's really Xixi's sin. Today is Sister Lian'er's happy day, but I'm here to call Auntie's heart. It's really a sin. Please rest assured, Sister Lian'er." With a kind heart, gentle and kind, the Liu family will definitely treat Sister Lian'er well."

Chu Xixi praised a few words casually, but these two words undoubtedly added fuel to the flames, making Liu's face even more gloomy.
