"Auntie, please forgive me for just coming to see you. I hope I can make up for it with a little care."

Xia Luoyi tried her best to keep her smile, with a hint of pious apology, and carefully handed another prepared gift to Yin Qiuju.

This is an elder who is difficult to get along with. Yin Qiuju treats others even more harshly than Xia's mother. Seeing her, Xia Luoyi feels depressed, which is also the reason why she did not want to come to live with Qiao's family in the first place.

"You girl, what's wrong? You went abroad and learned how to win people's hearts. I won't fall for your tricks."

No, Yin Qiuju had a straight face, either speaking in a sarcastic manner or showing no appreciation. As she spoke, she waved away Xia Luoyi. Her hand trembled slightly and the gift fell to the ground with a bang.

Xia Luoyi's expression became awkward, and she took back her hand abruptly, and explained with a slightly trembling voice: "Aunt... you misunderstood, I didn't mean anything else."

Mother Qiao is an extremely difficult future mother-in-law. If you are under the same roof with her, you have to be careful in what you say and do, and you don't dare to offend at will.

Yin Qiuju put her hands on her waist, a trace of contempt flashed in her eyes, and her cold tone was extremely sarcastic: "Humph, I don't know how little you are petty. Don't think that you can seduce my son's heart with just a little bit of beauty, even if he

Just because you are the one chosen, Charlotte, does not mean that you are qualified to be the daughter-in-law of the Qiao family."

"..."

Hearing her thorny words, Charlotte froze and was too embarrassed to speak.

She didn't know what she had done wrong to make Yin Qiuju always object, or because the rumors that she had an illegitimate daughter from the Xia family made it difficult for the Qiao family to accept it, but she just simply wanted to be with Qiao Ziqian, and

I don't want to be the victim of a marriage between two families.

However, Yin Qiuju's face was full of displeasure, and Xia Luoyi didn't know what to do. The servants stood aside as if watching a good show, and the atmosphere became more solemn. Qiao Jingsheng couldn't stand it anymore, so he immediately stood up and persuaded her: "Old lady,

Luoyi just came in, you can't say something nice."

Not only did Yin Qiuju not listen to his words, but she even lost her good looks. A trace of resentment flashed in her eyes, pointing at Xia Luoyi and saying, "Am I wrong? How did she cause my Shaojie to follow me?"

Brother Ziqian turned against his brother, and now he is quarreling with his sister."

"..."

Xia Luoyi opened her pupils innocently, hearing what was going on. Yin Shaojie's name also came to mind. He was Yin Qiuju's nephew and her childhood friend with Qiao Ziqian. But the Yin family immigrated overseas a few years ago. Why?

She said it had something to do with her, but she didn't know about it.

Mother Qiao's groundless accusations stimulated her heart and lungs. With tears in her eyes, Charlotte took a step back tremblingly, feeling extremely embarrassed.

Qiao Jingsheng shook his head helplessly, not knowing how to rescue himself. The situation was deadlocked for a while.

"Mom, what did you say?"

At this moment, Qiao Ziqian walked into the house. Seeing his parents' reactions and Xia Luoyi's aggrieved look, he could understand what happened.

His eyes darkened calmly, and he stepped forward to protect Xia Luoyi behind him while speaking to Yin Qiuju: "Please don't treat Yiyi like this, she is not wrong."
