"Liansheng, what’s wrong?" Bai Xue suddenly patted her forehead, "No way, did she bully you too?"
Luo Ye had a line of black on her face, hearing Bai Xue’s tone, how co she sounded like a bully always causing trouble?
Liansheng’s mouth twitched: "Her, the woman I told you about."
"Which woman?" Bai Xue tried hard to recall.
Liansheng gave her a helpless look: "Sister, forget it, you’ve been so absent-minded lately, anything I say you just let it go in one ear and out the other."
Bai Xue’s brows furrowed: "Did she snatch the man you like?"
"Can you watch your words?" Wen Yan stepped forward, angrily glaring at Bai Xue, "Although I don’t hit won, for my sister’s sake, I wouldn’t mind making an exception!"
Bai Xue looked at the gentle Wen Yan with disdain: "If you’ve got the guts, try hitting , we don’t know who will win yet!"
"Young Master Yan, Miss Xue, we’re all family, let’s not hurt the harmony." Ping and Ah Hua quickly stepped between the two to diate.
"Who’s family with him (her)?" The two nearly said in unison.
"What are you all doing standing here?" With a hoarse female voice, a seventy-year-old lady with a face full of flesh ca down from upstairs.
"Madam, you’re awake?" Ping and Ah Hua quickly greeted her.
The old lady pointed at Luo Ye and Wen Yan: "Who are these two?"
Ah Hua quickly stepped forward to support the old lady: "Madam, they are Miss’s grandson and granddaughter."
"Miss? Which miss?" The old lady frowned.
"Miss Yanrui has returned, she’s now talking with the Young Master in the study."
"She’s back?" The old lady was montarily stunned, then chuckled, "It’s good she’s back, we’re all family, of course she should be back."
Originally, if she didn’t co back, I was thinking of visiting her, but unexpectedly, she’s returned, just right, I have sothing to ask her, what a coincidence." These last few sentences were said through gritted teeth.
Luo Ye and Wen Yan frowned, originally, Old Mrs. Wen’s return was a good thing, but now it seems, it’s like a series of interrogations, one hurdle after another, unending, had they known it would be like this, they should have advised against her return, Wen Tong’s wedding, their presence or absence wouldn’t matter, why bother facing their grim expressions?
The study door opened, Bai Yanji and Old Mrs. Wen ca out.
Old Mrs. Wen greeted with a smile: "Sister-in-law, it’s been years, you haven’t changed a bit."
"Oh, why didn’t anyone call when sister ca back? Don’t say I was asleep, even if I were dead, I’d still get up to see sister."
Luo Ye frowned, stepping forward to hold Old Mrs. Wen: "Grandma, let’s go ho, I truly feel, without them, little uncle’s wedding would be more joyous."
Elderly Mrs. Bai gave a fake smile: "Sister, is this your family’s junior? Truly impolite, when elders speak, is it their place to interrupt? Does she think she’s a three-year-old child?"
Old Mrs. Wen’s smile disappeared: "Sister-in-law, since Ye’er doesn’t please you, we won’t stay long, when there’s ti, I’ll co again to see brother and sister-in-law."
Elderly Mrs. Bai quickly pulled Old Mrs. Wen’s arm: "Sister, don’t be in such a hurry to leave, it’s been so many years since you ca back, you don’t know how the children have grown. I tell you, our Yan’er is the most promising, only 27 this year, already a lieutenant, that child is so polite."
Bai Yanji frowned at his wife: "Enough, you say a few less words, it’s rare for sister to co back, don’t add to the chaos."
"Adding chaos?" Elderly Mrs. Bai sneered, "Fine, I won’t disturb your sibling reunion. Bai Yanji, I know, you’ve been resenting all these years, but think for yourself, haven’t you done wrong?"
"Of course I know I’ve made mistakes, but flaunting Yan’er in front of sister, is really being unaware of one’s limits. This young lady you look down on, do you know how old she is, what position she holds?"
Elderly Mrs. Bai pursed her lips: "Her, she’s just a student, what position could she have?"
"18 years old, lieutenant." Bai Yanji paused, "Do you think, in front of her, Yan’er’s achievents are still worth flaunting?"
Elderly Mrs. Bai was briefly stunned, then coldly laughed: "An 18-year-old lieutenant, surely climbed up through connections, how can she compare with Yan’er?"
"This Miss Ye’er truly relied on her own strength to climb to this position, both Yan’er and I know this, we didn’t tell you to avoid your needless nagging and annoyance." Bai Yanji sighed, adding, "And there’s another news, might as well tell you."
