Chapter 319 Contempt
Shao Taotao was amused by Qiao Xuan's words and laughed softly, and she felt a little more relaxed.
He nodded and said "hmm" to Qiao Xuan.
The noise made by the aunt and sister-in-law was not actually very big, but Le Zhengting happened to see it.
Le Zhengting had to show her elegant, virtuous and graceful side, while also racking her brains to find something to say and making it sound nice, which was very tiring.
But Xie Jingrong was not interested at all, and compared with the past, he had no intention of paying any attention to her. And she knew very well that her third brother did not like her.
Le Zhengting couldn't help but feel a little angry.
Xie Jingrong ignored her, and she didn't want to pester him too much, as that would be annoying. She happened to see Qiao Xuan and Shao Taotao talking, so she glanced at them and said with a smile, "Mrs. Shao and Miss Shao have such a good relationship! By the way, where are you from? I've never seen you before!"
The air is slightly stagnant.
Qiao Xuan smiled and said, "We are just doing a small business in a village outside the city. It's normal that Miss Le Zheng has never seen us."
Le Zhengting chuckled, glanced at Le Zhengxiao and said, "Mrs. Shao may be a little self-deprecating. My third brother is very picky. Ordinary people are not pleasing to him, let alone making friends with him!"
Having said this, Le Zhengting was really a little puzzled.
Her third brother has high standards and is really picky. There are indeed not many people who he can accept and treat as friends.
And if Shao Yunduan was the only one here today, it would be understandable, but Qiao Xuan, a woman, was also here, and she brought her brother-in-law and sister-in-law with her. This didn't seem right no matter how you looked at it.
How much does her third brother value this family? He entertained the whole family.
Qiao Xuan had no choice but to continue making up stories, flattered, "Really? So it seems that Master Le Zheng is praising us! It's a coincidence that Master Le Zheng passed by our village when it was raining heavily, so he happened to take shelter in our house and had a great chat with my husband. It's also a coincidence today, we went to the city for something, and we just happened to run into him, so that's-"
Le Zhengxiao was relieved to hear Qiao Xuan say that, and he added, "Mrs. Shao is so polite! You treated me so well that day, and since we meet today, I should be the host."
Le Zhengting smiled, nodded, and then lost interest in paying attention to them.
She said that this family didn't look like the kind of people who could be friends with her third brother, and it turned out that they were just acquaintances who met by chance.
After finally finishing the meal, Shao Yunduan said goodbye and left with Qiao Xuan and his two younger siblings.
Every family has its own problems, and Le Zhengxiao's life is not easy either.
Le Zhengxiao nodded slightly to Shao Yunduan with an apologetic look, but did not see him off in person.
As soon as they left, Le Zhengxiao said to Le Zhengting, "You go back. Brother Xie and I have something else to do."
Le Zhengting smiled sweetly and said, "Where are you going, Third Brother? Take me with you to play too!"
The separation between men and women in this dynasty is not strict, and there is no problem in going out as long as you are accompanied by your family.
However, Le Zhengxiao was not willing to take her with him. He smiled meaningfully and said, "The place we are going to is not suitable for women."
Le Zhengting was startled, her face slightly red, she couldn't bring herself to follow him, so she had to pretend she didn't understand and forced a smile: "I, I'd better go home first and not disturb Third Brother anymore."
After saying that, he hurriedly took Jiang'er away.
Le Zhengxiao breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at Xie Jingrong, "Brother Xie, when are you going to get engaged? Don't be so picky! Get engaged quickly!"
