Chapter 48: This Mother Xiao Is Not That Mother Xiao
Military planes are powerful. Within half an hour, the plane stopped at the Xiao family's special airport. From the air, the Xiao family looks like an ordinary wealthy family. They have a large piece of land in the capital and several beautiful people. The villa building is just a little more heavily guarded.
Unexpectedly, Shen Fei realized after flying on the plane that her imagination was really wrong, and it was so wrong.
Shen Feifei thought she had seen a lot of luxurious buildings, such as hotels of several stars and mansions and villas of wealthy families. She had not seen many of them in Jiangnan, and had not rarely entered them.
But as soon as she arrived at Xiao's house, she realized that she was just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden - a country bumpkin entering the city. Everything she saw in Xiao's house was new.
The Xiao family is a top family that has controlled the military power of the Flower Kingdom for generations. It has a profound cultural heritage and its buildings are different from other wealthy families. It covers an area of tens of thousands of square meters. It is a huge manor in the capital city where land is precious. There are also hand-painted verandas, pavilions and flower pavilions, and sunlit corridors. These architectural words that Shen Feifei has only seen in books are all here.
The buildings are also antique and different from other houses in every way. However, these buildings are not decorated with wood as they appear on the surface, but are made of materials that Shen Feifei cannot name.
The decoration inside is also unique, with a noble atmosphere everywhere.
Shen Feifei, a country bumpkin, seemed to have entered the palace, looking around and touching here and there. From time to time, he asked Xiao Yi some ridiculous questions.
As a result, Xiao Yi's face turned red and embarrassed in front of the Xiao family staff. He quickly grabbed Shen Feifei's groping hand and pulled her to see his family.
Along the spacious building, Shen Feifei and Xiao Yi made several turns and passed several inspection posts before arriving at a small living room.
"Mom, Dad, this is my girlfriend - Liu Ye." Xiao Yi smiled and pushed Shen Feifei out and brought him to his parents.
Xiao Yi's father is a general in his fifties. Shen Feifei has seen him on TV. He didn't feel much on TV, but Xiao's father in front of him had a strong aura of a superior person. The aura was very strong. , every time you raise your hands or feet, you will feel a heavy sense of oppression.
At first, he looked at Shen Feifei in silence in front of him, as if he was examining something. Later, he saw that Shen Feifei didn't feel any nervousness or panic at all under the pressure of his aura.
There was a gleam in his eyes, he raised his eyebrows in a subtle and strange way, smiled kindly, and nodded.
"Liu Ye, Xiaoyi's friend. Okay, sit down." He pointed to the sofa on one side.
"Are you Xiaoyi's new girlfriend?" They just sat down, and Xiao's mother, who had been silent and looking at Shen Feifei up and down, spoke. There was some sharpness and dissatisfaction in her words.
"Yes, I am Xiao Yi's girlfriend." Shen Feifei also noticed a hint of hostility from Xiao's mother and did not say much, but responded politely.
"Liu Ye, who are your parents? Are you from a wealthy family? What kind of job do you do? Why haven't I heard of your name before?" Xiao's mother asked a series of questions and raised her eyes. She looked like a noble lady looking at an inferior person.
Well, this Mrs. Xiao is not satisfied with herself.
Shen Feifei frowned, "I don't come from a wealthy family, I'm just a girl from an ordinary family. I don't have a noble family and have an ordinary job!"
Shen Feifei's tone was a little stiff.
Is this Xiao's mother, Xiao Yi's mother? Why doesn't she have the elegance of a noble lady from a scholarly family? She looks like a snobbish person in the market.
"Isn't it a joke that you, a commoner, want to be the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family?" Mother Xiao immediately laughed at her face, with disdain and contempt in her eyes.
"Second aunt, please be careful what you say!" Xiao Yi frowned and interrupted Xiao's mother.
Um, isn't it Xiao's mother? Why did she become the second aunt again?
Upon hearing Xiao Yi's words, Shen Feifei immediately looked up at him in confusion.
It seems that the family relationship of this Xiao family is really not simple!
"Okay, okay, please stop arguing. Today is Xiaoye's first day at home. We are just happy. Come and let's have dinner and chat while eating."
Father Xiao gave Mother Xiao a warning look and took the lead towards the restaurant.
The Xiao family's banquet was very sumptuous, but very boring. Father Xiao didn't like to talk much. He neither admitted that Shen Feifei was Xiao Yi's girlfriend nor objected. But Mother Xiao looked at Shen Feifei in various ways. It's pleasing to the eye, so naturally I don't have a good face towards them.
Only Xiao Yi and Shen Feifei kissed each other, but they couldn't go too far in front of Xiao's father and Xiao's mother. It didn't take long for this symbolic family banquet to end.
night.
In the guest room of the Xiao family.
Xiao Yi reached out and scraped Shen Feifei's little nose affectionately.
"Okay, okay, stop staring at me with your big innocent eyes, I'll tell you the truth." Xiao Yi compromised and pulled Shen Feifei into his arms and hugged her.
From Xiao Yi's mouth, I learned that Xiao's mother was not actually Xiao Yi's biological mother, but his mother's half-sister, who had a similar appearance to Xiao's mother.
His biological mother, the real Xiao Mu, had died in a car accident when he was ten years old. The current Xiao Mu moved to the Xiao family on the grounds that her sister died and Xiao Yi had no one to take care of her. At the same time, she also He brought a daughter, Xiao Yi's cousin - a cold-blooded girl.
At the beginning, this second aunt was really kind to Xiao Yi and Xiao's father, gentle and considerate, caring about everything, and won the favor and trust of their father and son. So Xiao's father, a man who lost his beloved wife, started to have a relationship with his eldest son. He fell in love with a woman who was somewhat similar to Xiao's mother.
But soon after marrying Xiao's father, the second aunt's true colors were revealed. From time to time, she behaved arrogantly and domineering, gossiping all day long about the family affairs of the east and west, and she was extremely philistine.
She didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Xiao's father, but she didn't have so many scruples in front of Xiao Yi and many relatives. She was often rude and had no sense of propriety in her words.
This made Xiao Yi very reluctant to see her. In order to avoid her, he went out to school early and entered the military.
On the other hand, that cold-faced girl came to his house when she was very young. The two were childhood sweethearts and had a good relationship. Xiao Yi also loved her as his own sister.
When he went to school, she went with him; when he enlisted in the army, she went too; when he was stationed in Jiangnan this time, the cold-faced woman was not afraid to follow him.
I just didn't expect that the cold-faced girl has the same temperament as her biological mother, arrogant, domineering, and unreasonable. The eldest lady has a very bad temper. She offended the female overlord Shen Feifei and was turned into a smelly zombie by her.
After this "Mother Xiao" learned that her only daughter was dead, she became a little nervous, thinking that Xiao Yi did not take good care of her daughter, which was why her daughter died. All the things she often had troubles with him and did to him They all had quite a bit of criticism.
It's just that Xiao Yi is the only eldest young master of the Xiao family, so she has to be patient and give in.
However, this time when she heard that Xiao Yi was going to bring a girlfriend home, she brought her back from the Jiangnan epidemic area. She immediately exploded, thinking that Shen Feifei had taken away Xiao Yi's care and love for the cold-faced girl. , so that her daughter could not come back from being trapped in a swarm of zombies.
She put all her hatred on Shen Feifei, and Shen Feifei's commoner background made her, a noble, look down upon. It also gave her a reason to bully and attack her unscrupulously.
