Mrs. Shen is talking to the old lady of the Zhao family, who is Zhao Minyi's mother and Lu Xixin's grandmother.
Helianqi and the other three walked to the corner, looked in the mirror, and made sure they made no omissions before moving toward Mrs. Shen in the center of the crowd.
Before he even got close, he was stopped by Aunt Seven of the Shen family in front of him.
Helianqi was startled, then nodded slightly and politely called: "Seventh Aunt." Then he expressed his intention, "I want to say hello to the old lady."
Aunt Shen Qi was very comfortable with this kind of social situation. She took Helianqi's hand and said enthusiastically: "Such a cute little girl, the old lady must love her dearly."
After saying that, she paused, with a look of embarrassment on her face: "But, good girl, I have to ask you to wait a little longer. The old lady is talking to the old lady of the Zhao family over there."
Helianqi nodded sensibly: "I'm not in a hurry. I'll go over after the old lady is done."
"You are really sensible." Aunt Shen Qi praised her.
Because Mrs. Shen didn't have time, Helianqi, Amei, and Zhao Yuanyuan stood in the corner and waited.
Zhao Yuanyuan looked at the layers of people surrounding her left and right, and couldn't help but click her tongue: "Are these all waiting to see Mrs. Shen?"
Ah Mei glanced at it indifferently and nodded: "Probably."
Zhao Yuanyuan sighed: "There are so many people, and according to this trend, when will it be our turn?"
"There is no way." Ah Mei said simply, "The Shen family has a high status. Mrs. Shen rarely attends banquets. If she finally gets the chance, she will definitely join in to curry favor with her."
Just as the three of them were saying this, they saw Lu Xixin coming in this direction.
Zhao Yuanyuan exclaimed: "No, she also wants to see Mrs. Shen? She has such a big face!"
After saying that, she began to gloat: "Hey, let's get closer, she will definitely be stopped, and maybe she will be ridiculed."
Ah Mei also sneered coldly: "You don't even know who you are, yet you dare to get close to me!"
Helianqi kept his posture and refused to go over, but Zhao Yuanyuan liked the excitement, so he and Amei forced her to come closer.
Sure enough, Aunt Shen Qi rushed to Lu Xixin immediately and blocked the way.
Seeing this, Zhao Yuanyuan burst out laughing: "Here comes, here comes the slap in the face."
She was waiting excitedly for Lu Xixin to be ridiculed by Aunt Shen Qi. As a result, without saying a word, Aunt Shen Qi led Lu Xixin to find Mrs. Shen.
how so!
The eyes of Zhao Yuanyuan and the three of them almost popped out of their heads. It happened that Aunt Shen Qi's daughter Shen Xiyu was right next to them.
Zhao Yuanyuan hurried over and said, "Xi Yu, Xi Yu, why did your mother bring her there?"
Zhao Yuanyuan was stuck, but Ah Mei said: "There are so many guests here waiting to see the old lady, doesn't Lu Xixin have to queue up?"
"How can Sister Xixin be a guest? She is my future sister-in-law." Shen Xiyu said matter-of-factly, "How can a future daughter-in-law have to queue up to see her mother-in-law?"
Helianqi and three others: "..."
As if the blow was not enough, Shen Xiyu said again: "Sister Xixin is wearing such high heels. She is so tired. The old lady must be feeling distressed. She just happened to go over and sit down for a while to rest."
The threesome who have been standing there for more than half an hour wearing extremely high clothes:~~(﹁﹁)~~~
They are not tired at all!!!
——
Knowing that Lu Xixin was going to greet Mrs. Shen, Banxia had expressed dissatisfaction.
"Miss Xixin, I heard Yuan Hu say that the old lady once neglected you at the Shen family. Her words showed no respect at all. How could you return the favor?"
After listening, Lu Xixin chuckled, her tone was a bit casual, and she didn't care much: "It's just human nature."
Banxia was still feeling uncomfortable and said: "She is so picky about you, aren't you angry?"
"Angry?" Lu Xixin turned her eyes, and the dazzling light fell on the ends of her eyes, making the already narrow phoenix eyes even deeper.
There was an unconcealable pride in his calm tone.
"Not everyone in this world has the ability to make me angry."
Banxia was startled and subconsciously raised her eyes to look at Lu Xixin.
She suddenly remembered that after taking care of Lu Xixin for so many years, it seemed that she had never seen her angry.
No matter how difficult it is, it will become easier and more manageable in her hands.
Anger seems to be a superfluous emotion to her.
"Go over." Lu Xixin walked towards Mrs. Shen, "She is Nian Xi's grandma after all."
The old lady of the Zhao family was talking to the old lady Shen. When she raised her eyes, she saw Lu Xixin.
She frowned subconsciously, with displeasure flashing in her eyes.
Mrs. Zhao didn't have any feelings of closeness and longing for her newly found granddaughter, but she didn't have any bad feelings and even felt a little regretful. She often advised her daughter Zhao Minyi to be nice to the child.
But what happened before made Mrs. Zhao feel bad about Lu Xixin.
Minyi and Yaqing did make mistakes in the first place, but Minyi is her biological mother after all. This girl has no family affection at all. She has no regard for her mother's face, directly exposes the truth, and is aggressive. It is really unfilial.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Zhao frowned and looked up and down at Lu Xixin with her cloudy eyes.
I originally wanted to find fault, but after looking at it like this, I became more and more surprised.
This girl is so beautiful because she combines the best qualities of the Zhao and Lu families, especially her eyes, which are exactly the same as Minyi's.
The old lady's heart softened, and she did not say any harsh words. She just sighed: "You are Xixin, come to grandma."
"This is not possible." Mrs. Shen grabbed Lu Xixin and said with a smile: "This is my daughter-in-law."
Mrs. Zhao was startled, she was dumbfounded, and she looked at Mrs. Shen in shock.
"You, what did you say?"
Mrs. Shen looked around and saw that all the eyes were focused on this place, so she grabbed Lu Xixin's hand and announced: "I say, Lu Xixin is the young lady of our Shen family."
Mrs. Shen's voice was not loud, but it was steady and powerful, and it reached the ears of everyone present clearly.
Helianqi originally looked at Lu Xixin in a daze, but when he heard these words, his hand holding the cup tightened, and his whole body was overwhelmed by huge shock.
How could...how could this happen?
How could Mrs. Shen recognize Lu Xixin’s identity?
Didn't Lu Xixin grow up in a small family? She doesn't know etiquette and doesn't understand the rules of upper class society at all. How could such a person enter the Shen family?
Zhao Yuanyuan also widened her eyes and was stunned for a long time before she thought of a possibility: "It should be Mr. Shen's instruction. Mr. Shen has been alone for so many years and there has never been a woman around him. Although Lu Xixin has a low status, he is Mr. Shen after all.
The only woman around me, Mrs. Shen had no choice but to accept her."
Ah Mei frowned and nodded: "This Lu Xixin does have some skills."
First, he destroyed Yaqing without leaving a trace, and then he climbed up a big tree like Shen Jiayao without making a sound.
