Nan Yan's face turned green.
Her mother just married over and she was already teaching Nan Baoyi a lesson. Based on this incident, what would people say about her?
Saying that she, a person of low social status, was taking advantage would be scolding her lightly!
She wanted to chase these stupid girls out!
Nan Baoyi was enjoying her difficulty and gave a fake smile, "Today the residence is very lively, Sister must entertain your friends and have fun. Goodbye."
She walked away from them slowly.
She took only a few steps and a group of middle-aged women with colorful clothing and heavy makeup walked towards her.
They looked around in every direction, making a big fuss and full of excessive praises in every word they spoke.
Zhang Yu and the rest hurriedly went towards them, each calling out their own mother.
Nan Baoyi understood.
These people should be friends of Madam Liu.
She was not interested in them so she politely nodded her head and greeted them.
Zhang Yu was dissatisfied.
She called out, "Nan Baoyi, my mother is Aunt Liu's friend, she's also considered your elder, why do you only nod your head?!"
Madam Zhang immediately felt she lost face.
She also scolded, "People in Nan residence have such good manners. Don't you know that a young person should pay their respects when meeting an elder? According to the rules, I'm your mother's friend, you should call me Aunt!"
"She has not gone through the wedding rituals yet, how on earth is she my mother?"
Nan Baoyi raised her eyebrows and turned towards Nan Yan, "Since these few people are your aunts, you should serve them properly, how could you let them simply walk around in the residence? Offending me is fine, but if they offended Grandmother, this will be a serious offense."
Her attitude was cold and aloof, like teaching her servants a lesson.
Nan Yan gripped her handkerchief in embarrassment and stared at Madam Zhang in disgust.
This group of women was so unworldly and still wanted to act all high and mighty, such a joke!
They should take a look at who the Nan family is!
She could not lose her temper and could only say, "Aunt Zhang, it's almost the auspicious hour, let's go to the main hall and witness the ceremony?"
[Translation note: Chinese people have auspicious time and hour when getting married.]
"Witness what ceremony?!" Madam Zhang was furious, "The young people in Nan family have no manners. As Xiaomeng's friend, I should teach her child a lesson on her behalf!"
Zhang Yu still remembered the gold bracelets and spoke with confidence, "Nan Baoyi, when meeting an elder, not only should you pay your respects, you should also take the initiative and give them a gift when meeting for the first time. Seeing that you are still young, my mother will not make things difficult for you. You should just give that pair of golden bracelets to my mother."
The other women heard this and could not believe there would be such a good fortune?
They all stepped forward one by one:
"What Miss Zhang said makes a lot of sense. Nan Baoyi, I'm also your Aunt, give me your jade ornament!"
"If you don't have anything to give, ask your maid to go to the house and get a few items. The auspicious hour is almost here, what are you doing still standing there? go and get it with your maid!"
Nan Baoyi looked at them like looking at a group of ridiculous monkeys.
She said gently, "Madam Liu is not my mother. If you want something you should ask from Nan Yan."
Madam Zhang was not happy, "How could you say such a thing? Once married into the residence you are a family. Xiaomeng is your mother! Tomorrow morning you still need to serve her tea!"
Nan Baoyi did not want to continue arguing with this group of shrews anymore.
She said "Forgive me for not being able to keep you company" and wanted to leave.
Madam Zhang still wanted her gold bracelet. Not only did she not let her go, but she also went as far as snatching it from her, "Leave the things here and then go!"
When the other women saw this, they did not want to let go of her precious jewelry and all went after her.
Since today was a day of happiness, even if they anger the Nan residence, the people here would not dare say anything.
Also, Xiaomeng was about to be the third madam of the Nan family. They were good friends of hers. What is the big deal to bully her stepdaughter?
Xiao Yi looked at them expressionlessly.
Madam Liu still had not entered the residence and already the little girl was bullied like this.
If she were to have a firm foothold in the residence, wouldn't the little girl be bullied to death?
If you want to beat a dog you should also see its master first.
He smiled coldly and shielded Nan Baoyi to protect her.
Nan Baoyi looked up timidly.
She could only see the teenager's black robes and his deep outline.
He grabbed Madam Zhang's wrist, "Your hands are stretched too far out."
Without waiting for Madam Zhang to get angry, a loud "crack" was heard. He broke her wrists!
A blood-curdling scream cried out, resonating in the entire garden!
Madam Zhang lost all blood in her face and swiftly stepped backward, huge drops of sweat dripped straight down. She stared at Xiao Yi, her lips trembling and unable to say a word in fear.
The garden was very silent.
Xiao Yi smiled fakely and said, "At this time, the bride must have arrived in the main hall already. The bride is the most important person of the day. If Madam feels wrong, why don't you go into the main hall and complain to the bride?"
Nan Yan knew this was bad.
If Madam Zhang were to make a fuss, is her mother still getting married?
Nan Yan immediately scolded him, "Xiao Yi, who do you think you are, you think you have a place to talk here?!"
Xiao Yi stared at her.
His look was too scary. Nan Yan was terrified and embarrassed and dared not say anything more.
However, Madam Zhang was not willing to be bullied like this by an adoptive child, she shouted painfully, "How could a lowly adoptive child dare to treat me like this? I will go find Xiaomeng and ask her properly, the Nan residence has no decency to treat guests!"
That group of women with colorful clothing and heavy makeup all haughtily went towards the main hall.
Nan Yan was angry and anxious. She stomped on her feet and could only chase after them to stop them.
Nan Baoyi looked admiringly at Xiao Yi.
This method of using Madam Liu's friends to mess up her own wedding could be considered vicious. All her guests would see her as a joke.
Xiao Yi looked at her sideways, "What are you looking at?"
"Nothing…"
Nan Baoyi covered her face with her fan and only revealed her pair of cute phoenix eyes, "Second Brother is brilliant and good in martial arts, Jiaojiao salutes you!"
"Kiss ass."
Xiao Yi stretched his hand and flicked her fair tender forehead, his thin lips curved in a smile for the first time.
Both of them arrived at the hall calmly. Nan Guang already led Madam Liu into the hall.
The auspicious hour for the ceremony had been delayed because Madam Zhang was making a huge fuss.
Seeing Xiao Yi stepping into the entrance, she became even more unreasonable, "That's him who injured my hand! Is there any rules in the Nan residence, how could an adoptive child be so disrespectful? Xiaomeng, you have to give me justice!"
Nan Guang immediately scolded on behalf of his beloved wife, "Xiao Yi, today is a day of happiness, look at what you did! You still don't want to serve tea to Madam Zhang and ask for forgiveness?!"
Xiao Yi took his seat lazily.
He was wearing a black round-necked robe today with dark red silk thread embroidered patterns tucked inside his sleeves. When he sat down and casually spread out his sleeves, his robes arrogantly covered the entire red sandalwood chair.
He supported his cheek with one hand and slowly scanned the people in the hall with cold eyes, like an emperor looking disdainfully at his empire.
He curled his lips up maliciously and his long narrow eyebrows filled with ridicule:
"Serve tea and ask for her forgiveness, is she worthy of it?"
Madam Zhang's blood rushed to her throat, feeling angrier than ever!
She screamed, "Third Master, look at his attitude! Xiaomeng, you say it's hard being a stepmother, now there's a rotten adoptive child in the residence. He will be riding on your head soon!"
Liu Xiaomeng could not take it any longer.
She took off her veil and stared fiercely at Xiao Yi, "You disgraceful thing! You need to kneel down in front of Madam Zhang and ask for forgiveness!"
