Just as she was about to get angry, Xia Jinqi beat her to it. She waved at Second sister-in-law Xu and said, "you can leave first. "
Second sister-in-law Xu was stunned for a moment. She probably didn't expect Xia Jinqi to not be angry or scold her... ...
She immediately burst into tears of joy. "thank you, Young Madam. Thank you, Young Madam... "
Then, she ran away in a panic.
Yan Jun's tightly knitted brows didn't relax. He helped Xia Jinqi up and turned to look at Yan Youcheng. "Grandfather, I'll take her to change her clothes. "
"En, go ahead. " Yan Youcheng nodded, his expression somewhat complicated.
It was the New Year's Eve, and making such a scene did indeed affect his mood.
The remaining people on the table continued to eat, but Zhou Lingfang's gaze was somewhat strange. She pretended to be unconcerned as she took a Napkin to wipe the corner of her mouth. "Why isn't the soup served yet? I'll go take a look... "
As she said this, she left the table naturally, and no one paid any attention to it.
Yan Jun helped Xia Jinqi to the room next door. The maid had already delivered brand new clothes.
Xia Jinqi went to the bathroom to change. Just as she was about to come out, she heard a series of curses from outside the bathroom window. It was very sharp and ear-piercing.
"What's wrong with you? Do you want to die? ! " After shouting, there was the sound of clapping and people falling.
Second sister-in-law Xu covered her red and swollen cheeks. Tears immediately flowed out. "I... When I see young master, I get nervous... "
"NERVOUS MY ASS! Fortunately, they didn't say anything. Otherwise, just wait for your death! I've never seen someone as stupid as you! HURRY UP AND SCRAM BACK! "
Hearing this, Xia Jinqi could already tell that the person who was cursing outside was probably Zhou Lingfang.
Her voice was very distinctive, thin and sharp.
As for the person she was scolding, it was probably the servant who had knocked over the dishes, right?
Why was she so nervous when she saw Yan Jun?
Was Yan Jun really that scary?
After being taught a lesson, second sister-in-law Xu immediately rolled and crawled away.
"What a stupid pig! It's a waste of food to live! " After Zhou Lingfang cursed, she also walked away.
Xia Jinqi waited until the outside room quieted down before she turned around and left the bathroom.
Yan Jun had been waiting outside for a while. When he saw her come out, he quickly walked over. "What took you so long? Are you not feeling well? "
"No... " Xia Jinqi shook her head and whispered mysteriously, "I just heard a play! "
"What play? " Yan Jun raised his eyebrows and glanced behind her, but he didn't notice anything.
He looked back at her, but the little girl stuck her tongue out at him mischievously. "I'll tell you later! "
Yan Jun,"..."
With a faint smile, he pulled her back to the dining table.
After that, they went back to the dining table. Xia Jinqi was obviously not eating attentively enough.
In any case, with Yan Jun helping her with the dishes, he knew better than her what to eat and what not to eat. She just needed to enjoy the service.
Of course, other than that, she had a more important matter, which was to secretly observe Zhou Lingfang's every word and action.
From the conversation she overheard just now, she could clearly hear that the relationship between Zhou Lingfang and that servant seemed to be extraordinary.
Moreover, that servant was inexplicably afraid of Yan Jun... ...
Why was that?
Zhou Lingfang also seemed to have noticed something. The dining table was very well-behaved, and she didn't say much. She didn't even dare to look at Xia Jinqi and Yan Jun..
After a meal, it seemed that they didn't gain anything else.
Xia Jinqi couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. She kept feeling that they were hiding something.
