"Yes, you're the same as before. You don't look any different from the first time I saw you," Qiao Qiang said politely.
Li Gui stood at the side and felt uneasy as she watched them exchange pleasantries. She did not know what to say or not to say. If she was too enthusiastic and Xu Lan did not like her, Xu Lan would have a bad impression of Qiao Mei. It was better to just stand at the side and watch.
Earlier at home, she even specially instructed the children not to say anything else when they met Qiao Mei's in-laws in the capital other than greeting them and answering questions politely.
Xu Lan and Li Gui exchanged a few words out of politeness. Xu Lan originally thought that relatives from the countryside would be like Tan Jing's family who had nothing to say apart from asking for money and trying to get into the Xia family's good books. She did not expect Li Gui to seem like an honest person.
