Shen Qingyue said with an amiable smile, her voice much gentler than yesterday.
Those who didn’t know would think that she was very satisfied with this daughter-in-law, and her relationship was harmonious.
However, Aunt Rong knew that this evil woman must not have a good heart.
She smiled politely and took the tea from the maid beside Shen Qingyue.
Only then did she realize that Shen Qingyue had actually invited Liu Tao, who she had chased out before, back.
At this time, Auntie Liu looked at her with a small man intoxicated by success that couldn’t be hidden.
“Young Mistress, this is Elder Shen, the cousin of the deceased Madam. You should be called Grandfather.”
Auntie Liu reminded her in a low voice, with the smile of harbour evil designs on the corner of her mouth.
Bai Luochu bowed slightly and handed the tea to Shen’s father and shouted, “Grandfather Shen, please use tea.”
However, Elder Shen furrowed his brows and glared at her coldly, not showing any intention of picking up tea.
Bai Luochu was carrying a six month old body gently, and bowed so tired that her waist was a little sore. She wanted to stand up and stretch it out.
Auntie Liu said coldly, “Young Mistress, the ancestors of the Shen family are all big families with high etiquette. The daughter-in-law and children are going to kneel for the elders to serve tea.”
Kneeling?
Bai Luochu gently straightened her waist, looked at Auntie Liu coldly, and stared at Shen Qingyue with sharp eyes.
“Mother, do I have to kneel down to serve tea for the ten people sitting here?”
Shen Qingyue looked deeply at her and gently nodded.
“This is the Shen family’s rule. Although you are pregnant, you can’t break the Shen family’s rules.”
Even though Shen Qingyue smiled and her tone was gentle, there was a chill in her eyes.
Bai Luochu’s heart sank. She knelt down one by one, and she really didn’t know if her body could bear it.
Aunt Rong broke out in cold sweat and wanted to run out to call Liu Kai for help.
However, Liu Yun saw through her thoughts and stopped her.
She really wished she could kneel on behalf of Bai Luochu.
“Don’t make things difficult for our Young Lady. She has twins in her stomach. She can’t stand kneeling like this.”
“Who is this?” Is a servant worthy of talking to us?
“I can see that it’s from a small family. I don’t even understand the basic etiquette and respect.”
“Qingyue, what’s your son’s eye for? She doesn’t want the great lady, so why did she come back with such a petty woman?”
When they saw that she was not kneeling, they mercilessly started to hurt her.
Bai Luochu glanced at them with cold eyes. The cold gaze in her eyes made everyone a little surprised, and they quietly shut their mouths wherever they looked.
Bai Luochu gently raised her hand and downed the tea in her hand. She turned her head and looked at Shen Qingyue, her eyes full of coldness.
“Mother, you’re talking about the Shen family’s rules, but I’m married to the Huo family, not the Shen family.” My husband’s surname is Huo Yunchen. If the rules of the Huo family also allow a pregnant woman from be in the family way to kneel down to serve tea to the ten of you, then I will kneel with my husband to serve tea.
Her tone sounded like a clear, and there was a faint smile on her lips.
No matter how you look at it, you don’t want to mess around and play with your temper, but it can give people a strong sense of oppression.
Shen Qingyue glanced at her coldly. She wanted to give her some prestige, but she didn’t expect that she was not a soft bun. She actually used Huo Yunchen to support her.
When the Shen family heard Huo Yunchen’s name, they said that they wanted Huo Yunchen to kneel down to them.
Although they did not care about the family’s affairs, none of their families relied on Huo Yunchen to stand firm in the mall and find the a space for one person in the upper society.
How could they afford to offend Huo Yunchen?
“Forget it. Young Mistress is a pregnant woman. Just take a sip of tea.”
Elder Shen immediately let go and the others naturally followed suit.
Shen Qingyue looked at everyone apologetically and smiled. In the blink of an eye, she looked at her and said softly, “Easy, you should thank the elders for their heartache.”
Bai Luochu gently picked up the teacup and stood in the middle of the hall. She bowed to the elders, and the be neither humble nor pushy said respectfully, “Thank you for your consideration, I will not respect you. This cup of tea is to everyone.”
Aunt Rong sweated for her. She thought she would compromise and kneel to cheer Shen Qingyue up.
But she didn’t. This child had really grown up and knew how to protect herself.
She was full of relief, but she couldn’t guarantee that Shen Qingyue wouldn’t harm her anymore. She had to talk to that woman for a while.
“Sorry, everyone. I’m feeling a little uncomfortable, so I went back and rested. Please have a chat with my mother for a while. She has been holding her back in the Western Mountains recently.
“Okay, okay, go and rest. Be careful not to touch the baby.”
“Yeah, let’s go slowly.”
Mama Bai smiled politely and slowly left with Aunt Rong’s hand.
“Qingyue, the wife Yun Chen married is not ordinary.”
“She’s a skilled person. She’s a ruthless character who speaks to the tell a story without missing a single circumstance.”
“You might not be her match.”
His opponent?
She was clearly a family member, so why would she become a rival?
Mama Bai sneered and didn’t understand why these people liked alienate one person from another.
Returning to her small villa, Mama Bai gently let Aunt Rong play music, locked herself in her working room, and drew with a brush.
Only Huahua could quickly calm her heart down.
Huo Yunchen will be back one day.
Maybe everything would be different if he came back.
She was looking forward to it so much that she suddenly missed him. Only then did she realize that everything she drew on the paper was his portrait.
…
In the evening, he had just finished telling him a story to sleep every day.
Liu Yun came over and knocked on the door.
Aunt Rong stood at the door unhappily and replied, “It’s late today. Young Mistress is already asleep.”
Liu Yun knocked on the door as if she hadn’t heard it.
“Madam asked me to invite Young Mistress. Even if she was asleep, she had to call her up. Otherwise, I would have knocked on the door until the young lady got up and went to see my wife.
Aunt Rong was so angry that she couldn’t do anything, but she was just a maid.
When Mama Bai came out of the room every day, she heard Liu Yun’s voice and let Aunt Rong open the door.
“Aunt Rong, watch the day at home. I’ll go take a look and go back.”
“Be gentle, I don’t feel at ease if you go alone. Let me go with you.”
Aunt Rong pulled her to stop her from going. Liu Yun looked at Liu Tao in disdain and snorted coldly,
“What are you afraid of? Can our wife eat her?” Even if our wife wanted to do anything to her, wouldn’t she still have Mr. Huo’s support?
Mama Bai smiled lightly, patted Aunt Rong’s hand and said calmly, “Liu Yun is right. I have my husband to support me. I’m not afraid.”
She never imagined that Shen Qingyue would take her to her university classmate’s birthday party.
