Chapter 1024 The Disturbance at the Dinner Party ([-])

Chu Xixi did not refuse the wedding cake sent by Mrs. Liu, and accepted it happily, thanking Mrs. Liu a thousand times, and then left Mrs. Liu's yard.

Just seeing her just walked out of the yard, the smile on Liu's face disappeared in an instant, she closed the door and window quite roughly, and sat by the candlelight staring at the betrothal gifts found from Chu Xixi in a daze.

Chu Xixi took the wedding cake and returned to Wen's small courtyard in a leisurely manner. At this time, many lanterns were lit in Wen's small courtyard, illuminating the front of the courtyard brightly.

As soon as Chu Xixi came in, Chu Mantong happily ran over to greet her.Wen Shi and Liang Shi stood in front of the door, watching their little sisters come back.

"Xixi, how will Mrs. Liu react?"

As soon as he entered the room, Wen couldn't help asking.Now it's the dinner party, if there is any mistake on Liu's side, I'm afraid Qu's will really take a bite this time.

"Mother, don't worry, Mrs. Liu won't pursue it any further this time. Look, she even asked me to bring you wedding cakes."

Chu Xixi said, put the wedding cakes sent by Mrs. Liu on the table, spread out the veils, and let everyone have a taste.

But Mrs. Wen and Liang were too worried and had no appetite, and they didn't even touch the wedding cake.On the contrary, Chu Mantong picked it up and took a bite, and said it was delicious.

"You little girl, you just know how to eat. Let's see who dares to take you in the future."

Chu Xixi couldn't help but tease a few words, which also eased the atmosphere.

"If I really can't find a good family, I'll go to my sister's house, eat and drink from my sister, anyway, my sister won't drive me away."

Chu Mantong also talked and laughed, which made Wen and Liang's dignified expressions slightly eased.Watching the two little sisters bicker.

"By the way, Xixi, then Mrs. Liu, will you really not pursue it?"

Although Mrs. Liang felt relieved, she still couldn't help feeling worried when she thought of Mrs. Liu's aggressive appearance today.

This kind of person is really unreliable.The verbal promises have never been fulfilled, and because of this, Mrs. Liu is the wife with the lowest status in Chu Taiping's heart.

"Don't worry, Aunt Liang. Xixi promises that at today's dinner, Mrs. Liu will definitely not pursue it. Maybe she will help us to speak!"

Chu Xixi had a plan in mind, so she picked up a wedding cake to tease Chu Mantong by the way.

"Sister, since Xixi said so, we don't need to worry. My sister can rest assured that this child Xixi is doing things."

Liang shi held Wen shi's hand, just now Wen shi's hand was cold, but now it also feels warmer.

"What my sister said is true. There is still some time before the dinner, let's go and see the master. I heard that the master has drunk a lot of wine, and he is not feeling right now."

Wen Shi said, together with Liang Shi, he boiled some hangover soup and brought it to Chu Taiping.

Only Chu Xixi and the little sister Chu Mantong were left, sitting together childishly fighting over the wedding cake.

As for what Chu Taiping said to Wen's and Liang's in the study, no one knew, but after the two of them went in and talked with Chu Taiping for a while, Chu Taiping came out with rather shambling steps and ordered the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Today was Chu Manlian's big day, Chu Taiping was so happy that he couldn't help but drink two more glasses, maybe it's because he's getting older and his body isn't as good as before, he's a little top-heavy now.Fortunately, I drank a lot of hangover soup, so I didn't have a splitting headache.

Just then Chu Taiping asked someone to go over to check on the situation of the old lady, but the old lady was really tired today, she rested early after going back.Right now only Chu Taiping is left sitting in the main seat, with five wives and a group of children sitting beside him.

When Chu Xixi and Chu Mantong appeared in the hall, the other children were already seated and waiting for dinner.Not daring to say much, he quickly walked over to Wen and Liang and sat down.

As soon as she sat down, Chu Xixi felt unfriendly eyes staring at her, raised her head slightly, and noticed Chu Yeshuang's slightly deep eyes, as if she wanted to explore something in her.

Today Chu Yeshuang and Mo Shuang Tangyan drank a few more glasses, but after all, they are young and strong, and after a short rest in the afternoon, they regained their spirits.Although his face was slightly red at the moment, his eyes were not in the slightest listless.This made Chu Taiping couldn't help sighing that he was really old!
"Okay, everything is here, let's get ready for dinner."

Chu Taiping was not in a hurry to bring up today's matter, since it was a family matter, he was not in a hurry, let everyone fill their stomachs, and it would not be too late to discuss anything later.

Everyone had different faces and different emotions in their hearts, but Qu Shi secretly laughed.Originally, I was worried that if the old lady came, she would definitely speak for Chu Xixi, but now that the old lady is not present, God really helped her!

"Master, let's deal with the matter first. You see, sister Wen's complexion is so bad. If she delays, what if she gets sick? If the old lady finds out, she must be anxious."

Qushi is not in a hurry to eat dinner.Right now, it's better to bring the matter to the table, hurry everyone up, and make it clear.

"That's right. Everyone must have guessed about the loss of Xixi's betrothal gift today. Now let Xixi talk about what's going on. Everyone happens to be here, so let everyone talk about it."

Let everyone talk about it, this sentence seems simple but actually has a deeper meaning.

Chu Xixi smiled indifferently, stood up very generously, faced everyone's scrutiny without shy away, and even Chu Yeshuang couldn't help admiring her calm demeanor.

"Father, after Xixi went back, she carefully questioned all the servants in the courtyard. Only Mother and Aunt Liang were there. Not long after I left the mansion, Aunt Liu's maid, Cai Jing, went to Xixi's room. Xixi was at Aunt Liu's place. I asked Caijing together with Aunt Liu, but you should ask Aunt Liu about the specific situation, Xixi is stupid, I'm afraid I'll miss it."

With a few words, Chu Xixi turned everyone's attention to Mrs. Liu. Feeling the attention of everyone in the family, Mrs. Liu stood up with a slightly guilty expression, and looked at everyone, showing a look of remorse.

"Master, this matter is actually a misunderstanding. At the beginning, I saw that Xixi didn't have many accessories, and Lian'er went out. I couldn't use so much dowry by myself, so I sent someone to send some to Xixi. Because of Lian Er's big wedding, my body and mind were full of grief and joy, and I couldn't help but drank two more glasses, and then forgot about it. Looking back, Xixi asked Cai Jing together with her, and Cai Jing reminded her This matter. All this is the fault of the concubine, please don't blame Caijing, master."

Standing in front of Chu Taiping, Mrs. Liu immediately made a penitent look of being slaughtered.This made Qu Shi on the side dumbfounded, and looked at Liu Shi in disbelief.

It's no wonder that Mrs. Liu was still standing by her side at noon and swearing at Wen's mother and daughter, but now she is helping Wen's mother and daughter to excuse?Why?Even at the expense of taking this fault on himself?

Not to mention Qu's, even Chu Yurou was extremely surprised.Looking at Mrs. Liu, and then at Chu Xixi, Chu Yurou understood.It must have been before the dinner that Chu Xixi went to see Mrs. Liu, and succeeded in instigating a rebellion. Although Mrs. Liu didn't bite back, it made the plans of Mrs. Qu's mother and daughter for many days in vain.

"Sister, didn't you say that you have never seen the betrothal gift? How did you know that what was given to Chu Xixi was accessories and jewelry?"

Qu Shi was naturally unwilling to be reconciled to Liu Shi ruining her good deed like this, and immediately stood up and asked, but she didn't know that her series of actions immediately made Chu Taiping frown.

Thinking about it, I'm afraid it's not that simple!Thinking of this, Chu Taiping couldn't help sighing, why is there no peace in the Chu residence?
